Lu Mingyuan lifted the car curtain and asked.
"Why aren't you leaving?"
Lu Zifeng smiled and said, "Dad, wait a minute! Some people want to come and fight with my second brother, so let me go and practice with them. But don't worry, I'll be watching from the side."
Lu Mingyuan was stunned when he heard this. He looked around and it was quiet. He didn't see any killer appear?
"Brother Feng, what nonsense are you talking about? Where is there anyone here?"
Before Lu Zifeng could answer his father's question, Lu Ziyan had already ridden his horse towards the woods. Looking at his anxious look, Lu Zifeng became angry and shouted.
"Second brother, stop. You are not allowed to enter the woods."
But it was too late. Lu Ziyan had already ridden his horse into the woods, and Lu Zifeng waved his hands in the air.
"Go in and keep an eye on him. If the Second Young Master gets hurt, you won't feel good."
Although Lu Zifeng was worried that Lu Ziyan might get hurt, he thought it wouldn't be a big problem since there were more than a dozen secret guards following him in. Thinking of Lu Ziyan's reckless look just now, Lu Zifeng felt that it would be better for him to suffer a little more.
A quarter of an hour later, Lu Ziyan rode out of the grove on his horse, but his arm was bandaged. Lu Zifeng didn't say anything, but just looked at him intently, staring at Lu Ziyan until his head drooped, and then he said.
"After you go back and recover from your injuries, I'll have Chang Lin or Feng Qing prepare a special meal for you. Just wait and enjoy!"
After saying that, Lu Zifeng ignored him and left with the convoy directly back to the city. Seeing that his eldest brother had already left with his father and the others, Lu Ziyan had no choice but to follow behind and walk back slowly. In fact, the moment he rushed into the woods, he regretted it. There were no less than fifty people in it, all in black, and they were obviously here to ambush his family. He knew that he was a little impulsive, but there was no way to back out at that time, so he had to bite the bullet and go in. Fortunately, his eldest brother sent secret guards in, otherwise he really couldn't say whether he could come back.
At the city gate, he met Situ Hao who was just about to leave the city. The two exchanged a few words and then parted ways. Situ Hao had accepted a mission to leave the capital for work, so Lu Zifeng did not waste his time.
After returning home, Tan Yunniang was shocked to see Lu Ziyan with an injured arm. When she learned that he was injured because he underestimated his enemy, Tan Yunniang slapped Lu Ziyan again.
Mrs. Xu said anxiously, "It's already so late. Why don't you go find a doctor to check on the child? If you keep beating him, won't you be the one who'll be heartbroken later?"
Only then did Tan Yunniang stop and quickly ordered someone to call a doctor.
Lu Zifeng just watched his mother yell at Lu Ziyan. Lu Zimo was so scared that he ran back to his yard to read. The little girl Lu Zixuan looked at her second brother being beaten by her mother with a gloating look on her face.
"Brother, I also want to learn martial arts. Can you teach me?"
Lu Zifeng was a little curious. He hadn't heard that this girl wanted to learn martial arts last year. Why did she want to learn martial arts now?
"Do you really want to learn? But learning martial arts is very tiring. You've seen how hard your second brother has to work to learn martial arts, right?"
"Brother, I was young before, but I'm grown up now. It's tiring for me to learn martial arts from my instructor, but I want to have martial arts skills so that I can at least protect myself."
Seeing his younger sister say this, Lu Zifeng also agreed and nodded.
"How about this, I'll find you a martial arts master. But since you've started learning martial arts, you must persevere and not give up halfway, okay?"
Just after noon, Madam Kang of the Duke of Dingguo's residence arrived at the Lu residence with Nanny Cheng and a group of maids and servants. This sudden arrival puzzled the Lu family. Wasn't the old lady taking a nap at this time? Why was she out at this time?
Kang said as soon as he entered the yard.
"Brother Yan is injured? Where is he injured? Why didn't you send someone to tell me? I'll bring the imperial physician to check on my grandson."
Only then did the Lu family understand why the old lady had come to their house in such a hurry. It turned out that she had heard from somewhere that Lu Ziyan was injured, and she was so anxious that she sent someone to the palace to find the imperial physician.
The imperial physician was an old man in his fifties with a head full of white hair. He looked like an immortal. If Lu Zifeng hadn't known that he was an imperial physician, he would have thought that he was a Taoist priest from some deep mountain forest. Of course, he looked even more like a Taoist priest when he was holding a whisk in his hand.
Kang said, "Doctor Zhong, I'm sorry to bother you. My grandson is injured. Could you please take a look at him?"
"Haha, don't worry, old lady. Your grandson should be fine. Although he is injured, he looks energetic, which shows that it is not serious. I will take a look at the young master now."
Doctor Zhong first looked at Lu Ziyan's bandaged wound, took his pulse again, looked at the prescription written by the previous doctor, and nodded.
"Please rest assured, old lady. Your grandson is in good health. The previous prescription prescribed by the doctor was also very good. There is no need for me to prescribe another one."
After hearing what Doctor Zhong said, Kang finally felt relieved.
"Thank you, Doctor Zhong. You must have been exhausted today."
"You are too polite, old lady. As a doctor, this is my duty. It is not tiring at all."
Doctor Zhong is the director of the Imperial Medical Bureau in the capital. At the same time, the Zhong family is also considered a family of imperial doctors in the capital. They have several pharmacies and clinics in the capital, and their medical skills are among the best in the entire Dayu Dynasty.
After seeing off Doctor Zhong, Kang also asked about the reason why Lu Ziyan was injured, and Lu Zifeng stepped forward and said.
"Grandma, this is all my fault. Today, I took my father, brother, and sister-in-law to visit Grandpa at the other courtyard. Who knew that on the way back to the city, they encountered an assassination attempt? I failed to investigate the matter, so I sent my second brother to fight the enemy, which ultimately resulted in his injury."
Lu Ziyan hurriedly said, "No, Grandma, I was too anxious to verify the martial arts I learned, so I rashly walked into the enemy's ambush and got injured. This has nothing to do with Big Brother."
Kang was relieved to see the two brothers trying to excuse each other. She nodded and said, "Well, I understand. You two should all get up! I don't blame you. Our Lu family started out with military merit. Your great-grandfather followed our great-grandfather to conquer the world. Your grandfather, although his character wasn't very good, still had an impressive record on the battlefield. In your father's generation, your uncle was poisoned at a young age, which resulted in poor health. Now that you two brothers are able to revive our Lu family, I am very relieved."
The two brothers Lu Zifeng and Lu Ziyan stood up and said,
"Grandma, please rest assured. I will live up to your expectations and revive the Lu family."
