An Shi stepped forward and said.
"Princess, how is the prince now? Has his injury worsened?"
A voice came from the carriage, but this voice was not the same person who had just talked to Lu Zifeng.
"The prince is fine, but the wound on his chest has reopened. We need to go into the city and find a clinic as soon as possible."
Upon hearing this, An Shi glanced at An Jiu and said, "An Jiu, take the prince and princess to Luzhou Prefecture immediately. I will wait here for the brothers behind to buy you some time."
An Jiu shook his head and said, "No, we can't separate now. I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to protect both masters alone."
An Shi glanced back and saw that his brothers had not returned yet. He didn’t know what was going on.
"Okay, let's escort the prince and princess together."
With that, the two of them got on the carriage and headed towards Luzhou Prefecture.
Lu Zifeng ran all the way back to the farm at a high speed. It was already 9 o'clock, so he rode Shadow back to the city.
As soon as I reached the city gate, I saw Situ Hao and a few others sitting in the pavilion at the city gate.
Situ Hao also saw Lu Zifeng and waved to him.
Lu Zifeng dismounted and walked over.
"Prince, are you here to see the scenery?"
Situ Hao rolled his eyes. "Nonsense! I'm waiting here for my father and mother. According to the news I received yesterday, they should be here today."
After hearing what Situ Hao said, Lu Zifeng unconsciously thought of the carriage he had rescued on the other side of the mountain in the morning, but then shook his head.
"How could it be such a coincidence? Besides, it would take more than half a day to get to Luzhou Prefecture from there. It would probably be dark by the time we get there by going around the mountain road. Situ Hao is waiting here at this hour, so he should be arriving soon. So that carriage shouldn't be that of Prince Jing and Princess Jing."
After talking to Situ Hao about his son for a while, Lu Zifeng went home.
I just got home and met Lu Mingyuan who was about to go out.
"Dad, are you going to Lujia Village?"
Lu Mingyuan shook his head. "No, your uncle has finished his work there. I'm going to the bookstore to buy some books. Since you're back, come with me! I heard you've read a lot, but you still need to continue."
Lu Zifeng felt a little overwhelmed when he heard this.
"Dad, you know my son has no interest in a career in politics. It would be better to ask the third son to handle this matter. I'll go get that kid for you. Just wait!"
After Lu Zifeng finished speaking, he walked quickly into the house. The veins on Lu Mingyuan's forehead twitched and he sighed helplessly again.
He knew that although his son was smart and had a good brain, and he could see that he had a wide range of knowledge and understood a lot, this kid just didn't like reading.
Lu Zifeng went directly to Lu Zimo's yard and saw Lu Zimo reading a book.
"Third brother, hurry up. Dad is waiting for you at the door to go to the bookstore. You should go too and buy some books there."
Lu Zimo jumped up when he heard that.
"Brother, are you telling the truth?"
Lu Zifeng said, "Why would I lie to you? Go quickly, our family will depend on you from now on."
Lu Zimo laughed and said, "Don't worry, big brother, I will definitely pass the imperial examination and get a Jinshi degree for our family."
After sending Lu Zimo away, Lu Zifeng returned to his own yard.
After lunch, the weather had turned cold. Lu Zifeng was sitting in the yard drinking tea when the little girl Lu Zixuan ran in.
Following behind her were Madam Liu and the two maids Zizhu and Qingzhu.
"Brother, you said you would find a husband for me, but did you find one?"
Lu Zifeng laughed when he heard that. He didn't expect that the little girl was so studious. He reached out and touched her little nose.
"You, do you really want to study? If I invite the teacher back, and you don't study hard, I will punish you."
Lu Zixuan pouted.
"Big brother always scares me, I will definitely study hard, big brother, don't worry!"
Lu Zifeng nodded.
"Little sister, it's not easy to find a good gentleman like this. You have to wait for a while. As for you, during this time, you should learn the rules and regulations from Aunt Liu, okay?"
Lu Zixuan nodded her head, and the two siblings chatted for a while before Lu Zixuan took the nanny and the maid back.
In the evening, Lu Zifeng was invited to the prefect's house by people sent by Situ Hao.
Lu Zifeng already had a premonition at this time that the people he saved today were the current Prince Jing and Princess Jing.
When he arrived at the prefect's house and saw the two men in black, Lu Zifeng really wanted to say, "Where's the monkey shit!"
An Jiu and An Shi also looked at Lu Zifeng in surprise as he entered the hall.
"Tenth Old Man, it can't be such a coincidence that the young man who just came in was the one who attacked our prince and princess this morning, and he's also a good friend of our prince?"
An Shi glanced at An Jiu, "Isn't this obvious? We saw this young man in the morning and ran into him in the afternoon."
When Lu Zifeng entered the room, he saw a beautiful middle-aged woman sitting at the top, and the prefect and Situ Hao sitting at the bottom.
Situ Hao saw Lu Zifeng coming.
"Brother Feng, let me introduce you. This is my mother."
Although Lu Zifeng kept his head half lowered, he had mental strength, so there was no question that he couldn't see Princess Jing's appearance clearly.
"Meet Princess Jing."
When Lu Zifeng came in, Princess Jing recognized that he was the young man who saved her and her husband in the morning. She felt that this was really fate!
"Young Master Lu, please get up quickly. I didn't expect to meet you here. I want to thank you very much. Not only did you save my son's life, but you also saved me and the prince."
As soon as Princess Jing finished speaking, Situ Hao beside her was surprised.
"Mother, who are you? The one you wanted to assassinate this morning. Were you saved by Brother Feng?"
Princess Jing nodded with a smile.
"Indeed, Young Master Lu is our family's savior."
Lu Zifeng waved his hands hurriedly.
"You are so polite, Princess. I just happened to meet you. I was just planning to go hunting in the mountains this morning. I am not very familiar with the area around Luzhou Prefecture, so I ran past the end. When I got to the other side of the mountain, I happened to meet the princess' carriage, so I helped her."
Situ Hao then shook his head helplessly.
"Brother Feng, why didn't you tell me when you saw me this morning?"
Lu Zifeng smiled helplessly.
"What are you saying? I didn't know they were the prince and princess. If I had known, I would have escorted them all the way back."
"Young Master Lu is right, Hao'er, please stop talking nonsense."
"Young Master Lu, due to the urgency of today, the Japanese princess will come in person to express her gratitude."
Lu Zifeng hurriedly shook his head.
"You are too polite, Princess. It is just a small favor for you. Don't mind it."
After everyone chatted for a few words, Lu Zifeng said goodbye and left the prefect's house. It was a family reunion, and he didn't want to disturb them.
