"Mom, I always dress like this when I practice."
The old lady nodded: "Isn't that practicing martial arts?"
As she spoke, she changed the subject: "How is Jin'er doing in Shengjing?"
Speaking of Lu Jin, Lu Ren had a headache: "He lives a good life, walking birds and fishing all day long, not a serious person."
"It's okay, let him be. As long as Jin'er is happy in this life, that's all."
Lu Ren obviously disagreed: "You can be unintelligent and unlearned, but you can't be ignorant, ignorant, and arrogant."
The old lady smiled and said, "That makes sense. At Jin'er's age, it's time for him to keep an eye out for girls and marriage plans."
As she spoke, she changed the subject: "In the blink of an eye, you have been away from Beiyang Pass for more than half a year. Logically, after resolving the war in Xili, you should have asked the emperor to return to Beiyang Pass. Why did you stay in Shengjing for so long?"
"Ren'er, don't you know that being with the emperor is like being with a tiger?"
The old lady sighed deeply when she said this.
Lu Ren was silent for a moment, then said slowly, "Of course I know."
The emperor may trust him today, but may punish him tomorrow because of a word he says.
The truth is that kindness and power are hard to predict.
He never thought that staying in Shengjing was a good thing.
But there are exceptions to everything.
Lu Ren looked at the old lady, his eyes showing unprecedented seriousness and determination, his tone was light but solemn, as if he would use all his strength to say that person in his heart.
"Mom, I did this for one person."
The old lady closed her eyes and said, "That Princess Duanyang?"
"Yes." Lu Ren did not hesitate or deny.
Anyway, he has already determined it.
"Although I am far away in Beiyang Pass, I still know some things about Shengjing City. Ren'er, with your personality, how can you tolerate sharing a wife with someone else?"
Lu Ren lowered his eyes, poured a cup of hot tea and pushed it to the old lady. He curled his lips, but there was no smile on his lips, but a bitter expression: "I have never been able to bear it."
"What?"
"I couldn't stand every moment, but I had to endure it."
Lu Ren raised his eyes, and said with some self-mockery in his tone: "Sometimes, I think, Mom, you have such a good name."
Old Lady: ...
"Ren'er, go back to Beiyang Pass and forget about that princess."
Lu Ren smiled and said, "Well, I did think about it and was ready to come back, but it was no use. The princess beckoned me and I knew I couldn't leave."
"Ninja..."
"Mom, have you ever forgotten Dad?"
The old lady was startled for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said, "Your father also insisted on marrying me."
When talking about her deceased husband, the old lady's tone became much lighter. She seemed much younger, with the shyness and nostalgia of a young girl.
She said: "But I don't have the courage of the eldest princess, so I only chose your father in the end. Otherwise, your mother..."
Lu Ren: ...
The old lady shook her head: "Just kidding, your mother I have a crush on your father."
She withdrew her hand, drank the hot tea poured by Lu Ren, and sighed: "Since you have made up your mind, mother will naturally support you. But you can endure it for a while, can you endure it for a lifetime?"
Lu Ren did not answer this question, but said: "I will love the princess for the rest of my life."
The old lady's eyes moved slightly. Although Lu Ren did not answer her question, he gave her the answer.
"If I have a chance someday, I will definitely meet this daughter-in-law...it doesn't seem accurate to call her daughter-in-law."
The old lady asked, "I heard that you are the first one to be recognized? Are you considered the legal husband? When are you going to hold the wedding? Do the concubines also need to carry sedan chairs into the mansion?"
Lu Ren: ...
“There may not be a wedding.”
Old Lady: ...
"You said you love the princess all your life, but you don't even want to give her a wedding? How can I believe you..."
Lu Ren said in a deep voice: "It's the princess who won't give it to me."
Old Lady: ...
She was silent for a while, then held her forehead and said, "This word '忍' has ruined things."
Lu Ren said: "Mother, you will definitely like the princess."
The old lady said unhappily, "What's the point of me liking it? Isn't it because you like it that matters?"
As she spoke, she suddenly touched Lu Ren's cheek and sighed, "You really take after your father in this character."
After Lu Ren left the old lady's yard, he was stopped by a certain unreliable friend.
"Lu Ren, when I heard you were back, I didn't waste a second and came to find you!"
Lu Ren stopped and frowned: "Why are you looking for me in the middle of the night?"
And Lu Ren's friend is none other than the famous miracle doctor "Sanbu Jiu".
I didn’t save you yesterday, I won’t save you today, and I won’t save you tomorrow.
He was dressed in a gray shirt, simple attire, with a circle of fur around his collar which made him look very warm.
"Didn't you send me a message last time, asking me to make you a bottle of Jiechun Pills? I just came to ask, who is it for?"
Lu Ren walked around him expressionlessly: "If you are bored, save a few more people."
San Bujiu smiled and said, "I know it even if you don't tell me. It's for the eldest princess. I never thought that you would get into trouble after going to Shengjing City. I thought you would end up living alone."
Lu Ren ignored him.
San Bujiu said to himself, "I heard that the princess has more than one lover. You are so unlucky. You are so good-looking, have high martial arts skills, and can fight. But the princess has fallen in love with someone else. Why is that?"
He clapped his hands and said, "I see. It's because of your bad temper that you are not likable. You always ignore people and your face is nothing but ice. It's strange that the princess likes you."
Lu Ren: ...
"If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."
Sanbujiu put his hand on Lu Ren's shoulder and said, "Tell me, what's so good about the eldest princess? With your personality, you are willing to be only one of them, or are you coerced? Intimidated?"
Faced with this question, Lu Ren, who was too lazy to pay attention to him, answered it seriously.
"I was not coerced or threatened. The princess is good in every way, except..."
"What is it?" Sanbujiu patted him, "It's just that there are too many men, right?"
Lu Ren: ...
