Chapter 50: Uncle and Nephew Confrontation



The heavy snow blocked the road. In Prince Chun's mansion, in the third courtyard, there was the main bedroom and the study.

On the table were the "divorce agreement" with the regent's seal and the emperor's edict.

Ever since he came out of the prison last time, when Lu Zhenzhi was alone, he could always think of Fu Tong'er's words. The little girl was really fierce and cute! Everyone else was afraid of him, but that girl actually "didn't spoil him"...

Oh.

At this time, someone knocked on the door and said, "Sir, King Hui has arrived."

Lu Zhenzhi tapped the divorce agreement twice with his powerful index finger, looked towards the door, and replied, "Come in!"

"Yes! King Hui, please come this way."

As soon as he finished speaking, the study door was pushed open.

King Hui came in wrapped in fox fur, and Xiao Si untied it for him and hung it on a hook.

He bowed to Lu Zhenzhi and said, "Uncle Ninth, I wonder why you have invited me to your house?"

Lu Zhenzhi held the imperial edict in one hand and wrote with the other, saying calmly, "Your father asked about your recent situation this morning."

King Hui's palms tightened.

"I present to him a poem written by my nephew."

"The Ninth Prince sent people to investigate my Prince Hui's Mansion!"

Lu Zhenzhi raised his eyes and glanced at her, showing three parts indifference, three parts coldness, three parts indifference and one part sneer.

"Is this a secret?"

The Regent's spies were spread throughout the Imperial City, the various royal palaces, and even the neighboring kingdoms. This was known to everyone. To say he was all-powerful was an understatement. Otherwise, how could a man who had spent a decade on the march and engaged in warfare possibly control the life and death of the Great Yan Empire?

Lu Zhenzhi said calmly: "This is the decree drafted by your father, requiring you to divorce Tong'er."

King Hui plopped down on the stool and said, "Ninth Prince really wants that girl!"

Lu Zhenzhi did not respond, but said: "I have sent people to investigate your concubine, Hong'er."

"Uncle Nine, please let Hong'er go. She's pregnant."

Lu Zhenzhi gave a cold smile that made people break out in a cold sweat: "If we let her go like this, will Tong'er abuse me again?"

"Domestic... violence?" King Hui asked, "Ninth Prince was... beaten by Tong'er? Ninth Prince was... That's impossible. She's just a little girl and she can't even beat me, how could she possibly beat Ninth Prince?"

"A few days ago, I was kicked twice by that girl, and my legs still hurt. If I let your concubine give birth safely, I'm afraid she will be beaten by her often in the future." Although Lu Zhenzhi said this, the corners of his mouth were filled with doting tenderness. After a while, he said coldly, "I have to give my woman an explanation."

King Hui finally understood. No matter how fearsome the Ninth Prince was on the battlefield or in officialdom, when he returned to Fu Tong'er, all his martial arts and strength were withdrawn. No wonder he was abused by Fu Tong'er...

"Ninth Uncle!" Prince Hui knelt down. "Please, Ninth Uncle, let Hong'er go. I am willing to take Hong'er to apologize to Tong'er."

"No need," Lu Zhenzhi said. "As long as my nephew signs this divorce agreement, your father will be safe regarding the words written by my nephew. Your concubine will also be able to give birth to a royal child."

But whether you can survive is not certain.

King Hui knew that the Ninth Prince was ruthless behind the scenes. If he had said it clearly, it meant that he had no choice.

"How did my nephew write that poem? His Majesty has not yet been able to recognize your handwriting. If it is compared with the letter sent to me by the Bailian Sect, my nephew's life will be in danger."

King Hui remained silent, his face pale and veins bulging on his forehead...

"Uncle Nine, please show me a clear path."

Lu Zhenzhi pointed at the divorce letter in his hand and said, "It's not difficult. Sign and divorce. I guarantee that the letter will no longer exist in the world, and there will be no way to compare it with my nephew's handwriting. My nephew and your unborn child will also be protected."

King Hui said, "After Minister Jiang's property was confiscated and before he was exiled, he said something to me, asking me to pass it on to the Ninth Prince."

"Oh? He's about to die, and he still has something to say to me?"

King Hui raised his eyes suddenly: "Ninth Uncle didn't even spare his life!"

"It's not that I don't want to keep him," Lu Zhenzhi said calmly, "The climate in the Agu frontier is changeable, and there are frequent plagues. The court won't send doctors to treat him. If this isn't imminent death, what is it?"

"Did he provoke Tong'er?" King Hui asked.
