Chapter 485 Luo Changlin Returns to the Luo Family
After Su Yue finished dealing with it, she remembered Luo Changlin and Wang Xinglai.
The two of them had returned to the capital with Master Lin Wu a long time ago, and were now in a secluded house of Murong Li.
Then she called Jiang Bo to bring Wang Xing and Luo Changlin to the palace.
Wang Xing planned to let Hongying take charge for a while so that he could get familiar with the job, and then hand over the accounting office of the palace to him.
As for Luo Changning, wait until Murong Li comes back and send him back to Luo Dinghai.
It was almost time for dinner when Murong Li came back. Su Yue muttered to him, saying that this guy really came back just in time for dinner.
After dinner, the two took Luo Changlin to Luo Dinghai's house.
The two houses were quite far apart, so the three of them went there by carriage.
In the carriage, Luo Changlin was feeling uneasy. He hadn't seen his parents for so long and wondered if they still remembered him. Would they dislike him now?
If he had not been abducted by human traffickers, he would now be a nobleman in the capital, well-read in the books of sages, and might even have passed the imperial examinations. He would not be in such a miserable state now.
But no matter what, he had to meet his parents. If they disliked him, he would just leave.
After driving for about an incense stick of time, they arrived at the gate of Luo's mansion. The driver stopped the carriage and went forward to knock on the door.
Luo Dinghai's family had finished dinner at this time, and the couple was preparing to rest.
Once their daughter got married, there were only the two of them at home, the couple. At night, the house became even quieter. When there was nothing to do, the couple would go to bed early.
At this time, the doorman came to report that King Li and his wife were here to visit.
Luo Dinghai wondered why the Li Wang couple came to visit at night.
I heard during the day that Prince Li had returned to the capital, so if I had anything to do, I would look for him during the day.
The relationship between them is purely one of superiors and subordinates, and there is nothing shameful between them in private.
Although he was confused, Luo Dinghai still hurriedly brought Mrs. Xiao out to greet them.
As soon as they came out, they saw Murong Li and Su Yue. They both knelt down and saluted.
"This humble servant greets His Majesty and His Majesty."
"Master Luo, Madam Xiao, please get up quickly. Let's go in and talk."
Murong Li helped Luo Dinghai up, and Su Yue supported Madam Xiao.
The two men stood up and nodded, only then did they notice that there was someone standing behind them. When they saw Luo Changlin, they couldn't help but look at him twice.
But it was obvious that the two men did not recognize that this person was the son they had been looking for, and then they welcomed the three people into the Luo Mansion.
On the road, Mrs. Xiao walked beside Su Yue, and looked back at Luo Changlin from time to time, wondering who this person was and why he looked so familiar.
Su Yue pursed her lips. Although Luo Changlin's face had gained some flesh, he was still skinny and indeed did not look like Luo Dinghai.
She didn't prompt them and just let them look at each other.
Luo Changlin felt a little sad at this time because his parents no longer recognized him.
He desperately suppressed the urge to rush over and call his parents. If...
The five people arrived at the living room of Luo Mansion, and servants came to serve tea immediately.
"My Lord, please, Princess."
Luo Dinghai invited Murong Li and the other man to take a seat.
Murong Li waved his hand to refuse and sat down with Su Yue.
Luo Dinghai knew Murong Li's temper, so he sat at the head of the table, and Madam Xiao stood behind him.
Luo Changlin did not sit down either, but stood behind Murong Li and the other man, lowering his head and not daring to look directly at Luo Dinghai and his wife.
Murong Li turned around and patted him.
At this moment, Luo Dinghai could no longer hold back his doubts. He immediately asked, "Your Majesty, who is this?"
Luo Dinghai looked at Luo Changlin. Although he was skinny, he looked more and more familiar to him, but he didn't know him.
He guessed that Murong Li and the other man's visit tonight must be related to this person.
Murong Li smiled and said, "Master Luo, don't you recognize this person?"
Lord Luo and Madam Xiao looked at each other. Do they know this person?
The couple shook their heads, then looked at Luo Changlin intently.
Luo Changlin took a deep breath and let Luo Dinghai and his wife look at him. He really hoped that his parents would recognize him.
He recognized them when he was at the door of Luo's house. Although they were not as young as he remembered, their appearance had not changed, and their voices were the same as the ones he heard in his dreams at midnight.
After a while, in Mrs. Xiao's eyes, Luo Changlin's skinny face gradually overlapped with Luo Dinghai when he was young.
Madam Xiao's heart trembled violently. She walked tremblingly to Luo Changlin, took his hand, and asked with a choked voice, "Are you Lin'er?"
"thump."
Luo Changlin's defense was broken by the sound of "Lin'er". He knelt in front of Madam Xiao and cried out in a choked voice, "Mother, my son is Lin'er."
Lin'er, only his mother would call him that.
“Ah… damn it!!”
Mrs. Xiao cried out in sorrow, and immediately hugged Luo Changlin and cried inconsolably.
"Damn Lin'er, it's really Damn Lin'er."
Mrs. Xiao cried so hard that she almost fainted. The son she had been thinking about day and night appeared before her like this.
She hugged Luo Changlin tightly, afraid that this was a dream and that when she woke up, her son would be gone from her arms.
Luo Dinghai only reacted at this moment. He burst into tears and ran over excitedly. He helped Luo Changlin up and hugged his wife and son tightly.
This family recognition scene was so touching that Murong Li and Su Yue quietly turned their faces away.
Luo Dinghai and his family cried so sadly that it took a long time for the three of them to calm down and stop crying.
Luo Dinghai let go of his wife and son and asked them to sit down. He came to Murong Li and Su Yue, knelt heavily in front of them, and kowtowed deeply: "This old minister thanks the prince for finding my son. This old minister has no way to repay you in this life. I am willing to die for the prince."
What he said was absolutely true. Ever since they met Murong Li, everything had been going smoothly for their family. They were first pardoned, then recalled to the capital and reinstated, and now they had even been promoted to the position of Minister of Works. All of this was thanks to Murong Li, otherwise the three of them would have died of old age in Yunwu Village, and would have been criminals for generations, with no hope of turning things around.
And now Murong Li has found a son for him.
In fact, after returning to the capital, he had been looking for his son and had never given up. However, the more he looked, the more desperate he became, and they were about to give up.
If they couldn't find one, they would be forced to adopt one of their nephews as their own son.
The couple knew exactly what his brothers were up to. Seeing that he held a high position but had no children, they all wanted to adopt their sons to take advantage of him and inherit their family business.
It is true that they only have one child, Meiting, and now she is married. It is impossible for them to let their daughter take care of them in their old age, and it is even more impossible for them to marry Su Qiwen into the family.
Moreover, they still had to have a son, so they had to accept a nephew as an adoptive son. Unexpectedly, Murong Li found their son at the critical moment and sent him to them so suddenly.
Murong Li's performance is simply the redemption of this couple.
