Lu Zheng only resembles Zhou Shi in his eyes; otherwise, he looks like the Duke of Zhenguo.
Both of his parents had big eyes, so at first glance, Lu Zheng looked exactly like the Duke of Zhenguo when he was young. But upon closer inspection, you would find that his eyes actually resembled those of Zhou Shi.
It's likely that only the Duke of Zhenguo and Lady Lin could see this.
The Duke of Zhenguo loved Zhou Shi, and felt sorry for her, so her appearance was deeply imprinted in his mind.
Lin hated Zhou because of her hatred for Lu Zheng, and even though Lu Zheng was already in his early twenties, her hatred had not diminished at all. Moreover, because Lu Zheng obtained the position of heir and the Lin family fell, Lin hated Zhou even more.
She thought that if Zhou hadn't bewitched her man and married into the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion first, this little sword prodigy wouldn't have been born, and none of this would have happened.
The Lin family has always believed that Lu Zheng played an indelible role in the downfall of the Lin family.
The Duke of Zhenguo suddenly seemed a little dejected: "Alright, we've seen him. From now on, we'll all be at home and see each other all the time. Everyone, go home! He's just returned, he needs to rest well."
Third Master Lu was the first to lead his children back to the third branch of the family.
The second wife and her husband also took the children back home.
There was no movement from the main room.
Lu Zheng turned to leave, but was stopped by someone: "Second Brother, you haven't been back for many years. Do you still remember your courtyard? Should I find someone to take you there?"
The speaker was Lu Ming, Lin's son.
His expression was playful, and he seemed nonchalant, but the anger he couldn't hide in his eyes showed that he was very dissatisfied.
He thought the position of heir apparent was easily within his grasp, but...
Lu Zheng stopped and turned to look at Lu Ming, saying calmly, "No need. After all, I am the heir of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, the owner of this residence. Even if I can't find my own courtyard, if I want to use yours, who dares to stop me?"
Lu Ni had been holding back for a long time. Now that only the eldest son's family was present, she glared at Lu Zheng with hatred: "Lu Zheng, what do you mean? You come back and you want to stir up trouble in the family and make Father unhappy? You are so unfilial, do you even deserve to be the heir?"
Lu Zheng chuckled: "Whether you have the right or not is not for you to decide. So what if you stir up trouble? This is my territory, I can do whatever I want. Lu Ni, you're eighteen, aren't you? Do people outside know how fierce you are? No wonder you're still unmarried. As the future master of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, let me tell you, I'm not going to support my daughter in her old age."
Lu Ni: "You..."
"Enough!" the Duke of Zhenguo roared, glaring at Lu Zheng. "Do you think I'm dead? You just got back and you're already claiming your territory? Don't forget, as long as I'm alive, the position of Duke of Zhenguo will never be yours!"
The Lin family, mother and sons, finally looked better.
Lu Zheng looked at the Duke of Zhenguo and asked earnestly, "Father, you are old. If you want to die, I can grant your wish. You should go and repent to my mother! As for your second wife and her children, don't worry, I will take good care of them for you. They will definitely not be spared the suffering I have endured over the past ten years. Father, do you want me to lend you a hand?"
"You unfilial son! You unfilial son!" The Duke of Zhenguo never expected Lu Zheng to say such a thing. He felt all the blood rush to his head, and he was about to faint. He also felt extremely uncomfortable in his chest. Pointing at Lu Zheng, he could only curse him as an unfilial son.
