Lying in bed in his new home that night, Lu Mingyuan couldn't sleep. He recalled what his son had said that afternoon: his biological father, whom he had never met, actually wanted to kill his own son. Feng Ge'er was his son, lost for over a decade and finally found. He actually wanted to kill his own son just for a title. Such a father was truly disheartening. Even though his son had never been in his arms and had no feelings for him, he still doubted the saying that even a tiger wouldn't eat its own cubs.
Tan Yunniang was also woken up by Lu Mingyuan tossing and turning. She turned over and sat up and looked at Lu Mingyuan.
"I know you're worried about your so-called father sending someone to assassinate Feng Ge'er, but you also have to know that people's hearts are biased. Although you are his son, you haven't grown up with him since you were a child, so how can you have any feelings for him? In this situation, his choice is predictable."
"Besides, you're already in your forties, do you still care about this? To be frank, it doesn't matter whether you want this father or not. It's not like you don't have a father."
Lu Mingyuan was actually just a little bit unbelievable. The human heart is really unpredictable. He has never understood why the so-called biological father did this. Now through his wife's explanation, he has gained some understanding of his biological father.
The next morning, just after breakfast, Lu Mingyuan looked at Lu Zifeng.
"Brother Feng, take your father to see him later."
Did Lu Zifeng know who his father was talking about? He knew that his father actually still had some expectations of his biological father, but what he said yesterday still made him a little sad.
"Dad, actually, it doesn't matter whether you go or not. You don't have to put yourself in a difficult position for us."
"Haha, Feng'er, don't think too much. I'm not that fragile. I used to have some expectations for him, but now he's nothing to me. I'm just thinking about becoming a wealthy and idle person after recognizing your grandmother, accompanying your grandparents and watching you build your own family and career."
After all the tidying up, Lu Zifeng took Lu Mingyuan, his two younger brothers and his younger sister to the villa. Tan Yunniang was originally going to go too, but was stopped by Lu Mingyuan in the end. He felt that Lu Lanqing was not worthy of being visited by his daughter-in-law.
The group of people, in two carriages, plus a few servants, went to the villa in the eastern suburbs of the capital. It was already early in the morning when they arrived.
Now all the secret guards in the villa have been replaced by the royal secret guards sent by the Empress later. This can be regarded as a manifestation of the Emperor's appreciation for the Empress!
They saw Lu Zifeng coming but did not show up. They were actually here to protect Lu Lanqing's safety and restrict his freedom.
Lu Zifeng also knew of their existence. Except for Lu Ziyan, Lu Mingyuan, Lu Zimo and Lu Zixuan could not feel the presence of the secret guards.
After entering the villa, I saw an old man with white hair sitting by the lake not far away. Although it was early spring, the capital was located in the north of the Central Plains and could not compare with Luzhou Prefecture. Although the lake had thawed, there was still some ice. I didn't know if he could catch any fish sitting here.
Lu Mingyuan and Lu Zifeng and others walked behind him. He turned around when he heard the voice, and the moment he saw Lu Mingyuan, he froze there and didn't move.
Judging from his expression, Lu Zifeng probably didn't expect anyone to come to see him, and he didn't expect that the son he abandoned would eventually come here to see him. Not to mention that he had never seen this son before, why could he recognize him at a glance? Because this son was 70% similar to his eldest son. If he was not too familiar with his eldest son, he would have thought this was his eldest son.
The two sides just looked at each other. Lu Mingyuan looked at this so-called biological father very calmly, without any ripples in his heart.
Lu Lanqing's eyes were moist at this moment. He actually regretted it. During this period of confinement, he thought a lot. Back then, Shi Yi Niang had instigated the whole family to suffer harm with just a few words. Later, in order to clear the obstacles for the third son, the eldest son was poisoned. He knew it was Shi Yi Niang who did it, but he didn't say anything. Later, when Kang took the child to the temple, she was also harmed by Shi Yi Niang. In order to keep his promise to Shi Yi Niang, he sent a message to the wet nurse, asking her to take the child to the north. Ultimately, Kang and her son were separated for more than 30 years. He thought that he would never see this son again in this life, but who knew that fate would play such a trick on him. In the end, the child returned.
Lu Zifeng and others didn't know that Lu Lanqing was thinking so much at this moment. They looked at Lu Lanqing, and Lu Mingyuan still said.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you. Since last year, our family has experienced no less than five assassination attempts, but we've all managed to survive. You may not know that Feng Ge'er has also been separated from us for fifteen years. Fortunately, the Queen saw through your trick this time, otherwise my son would have been in danger."
"As for the title you care about most, I believe the Queen will never let your grandsons inherit it. Even if she wants to find someone to inherit it, she will choose one of my three sons, because we are all legitimate children."
Although Lu Mingyuan's face was calm, Lu Lanqing could hear the anger in his words. He looked at his son with complicated eyes. He felt that his son hated him, but it was too late to say anything at this time, so he did not speak, but just looked at Lu Mingyuan, and then continued to look at the fishing line on the lake.
Lu Zifeng curled up the corner of his mouth in sarcasm. He could see that Lu Lanqing's forced composure was just a way of losing the battle rather than the personal one.
The father and his sons left the villa. The two brothers Lu Zifeng and Lu Ziyan still rode horses, while Lu Mingyuan took his youngest son and daughter in a carriage. The group headed towards the capital. In a small forest not far from the capital, Lu Zifeng waved his hand to stop the carriage.
"Zi Yan, it seems you didn't bring your spear with you?"
Who knew that Lu Ziyan took out a pistol directly from the side of the saddle, fiddled with it in his hand for a few times, and the pistol instantly became longer, exactly the same length as a normal spear.
"Haha, big brother, this was given to me by Nan Shaoqing when I came to the capital. He also has a spear like this. This spear can be long or short. Isn't it great?"
After watching him fiddling with it, Lu Zifeng realized that the gun was indeed good, but it was only suitable for them. It was a little too light for him. He still preferred heavy guns, and he was good at using the Overlord Gun.
