Unexpectedly, Lu Yanke took the initiative to say that he was just a common soldier, and that An Ge'er was the general in charge of suppressing the bandits. They could negotiate with the prince if they captured An Ge'er.
The bandit believed it. He had been forced to jump off a cliff by the prince, so why wouldn't he try every means to find a hostage to save his life?

The heir apparent has become a cripple, and his concubines and illegitimate sons are urging the Marquis to submit a memorial to the Emperor to replace him.
If it weren't for the princess standing up for him, the position of heir apparent would probably have fallen to someone else long ago.
Jiang Chuwei had known for a long time that Lu Yanke was not human, so why didn't Prince Yan expose his true colors?
