Chapter 253 Thoughts
Lu Enyan felt guilty when asked this question and quickly changed the subject.
Seeing him like this, the princess knew that her son still had not made any progress.
"Remember, if the other party is not attracted to you, you must not use your authority and majesty."
Lu Enyan quickly said: "This is natural..."
While the mother and son were talking, a servant came with the news that Prince Duan had returned, bringing something new with him, saying he wanted to show it to the princess.
"Okay, you go first, your father is here with me."
"good."
When Lu Enyan came out, he happened to meet Prince Duan.
At this time, Prince Duan probably realized how much he owed his legitimate son over the years.
"Yan'er, why are you leaving now that I'm here? Are you feeling unwell again?"
Lu Enyan's heart tightened, but he forced himself to remain calm and said with a smile, "Father, you are worrying too much. I just happened to have some things to deal with, not that I am unwell."
During this period, Prince Duan had shown goodwill to him more than once, but he was really not used to it and didn't really need it.
Upon hearing this, Prince Duan's face showed a hint of kindness. "I'm glad you're alright. You're weak, so you need to take better care of yourself. I'm very pleased to hear that your health has improved significantly recently. The Little Medical Fairy is indeed quite capable, having been able to cure you so quickly. If she had appeared earlier, your mother wouldn't have lived in fear for so many years."
Lu Enyan couldn't help but said, "If it was earlier, the Chaoyang County Master wouldn't have finished her studies yet."
Prince Duan was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said with a smile, "Yes, yes, that's right, I was negligent. However, this Chaoyang County Princess is indeed a prodigy. Even your mother praises her highly."
Lu Enyan secretly complained in his heart, his mother was not praising him highly at all, it was obvious that she cared deeply about that girl Ruanci, and she was probably eager for him to marry her immediately.
He didn't dare to show it on his face, and only smiled and said, "Yes, my son also thinks that the Chaoyang County Master is an excellent doctor."
Prince Duan looked at him and suddenly changed the subject: "Yan'er, you are not young anymore. It's time to think about your lifelong affairs. Your mother has been worrying about your marriage, and I also think it's time to find a marriage for you."
Lu Enyan's heart tightened, but he remained calm: "Father is right, but my son's body has not yet fully recovered. Let's wait until he is well again before discussing this matter."
Upon hearing this, Prince Duan paused for a moment and said, "That's fine. Your health is indeed the most important thing. However, you can't keep putting it off. Once you're feeling better, I'll start making arrangements for you."
Lu Enyan felt helpless, but he could only agree: "Yes, son, obey your command."
Now that Prince Duan is in a good mood, Lu Enyan will also give face to Prince Duan in order not to embarrass his mother.
Prince Duan patted his shoulder and said, "Okay, go ahead. If you need anything, just come and find me."
Lu Enyan bowed and took his leave, feeling mixed emotions.
He wasn't quite sure how to respond to his father's constant overtures of goodwill during this period. After all, these things had belonged to Lu Wenxue and Lu Ennan since they were young.
He and Lu Enru just watched from the side, from envy at first to numbness in the end.
When he returned, he happened to meet Lu Enru.
“Brother…”
Lu Enru has always been a person with no sense of existence in the mansion, and so has Concubine Feng.
Over the years, only the princess has always taken care of them, and the courtyard has never been short of food, clothing and other necessities.
No matter how well Concubine Wen lived, the princess still firmly held on to her rights, so Concubine Feng was not treated harshly.
"Third brother, did you just get home from school?" Lu Enyan is usually cold to others, but he can still chat with this third brother.
Lu Enru is now engaged, and he will have to wait until he reaches the age of twenty to get married, so he is not in a hurry.
People in the royal family have always regarded learning as basic skills.
Although Lu Enyan was in poor health before, the palace did not neglect his studies. Lu Ennan and Lu Enru both took a lot of classes. Lu Ennan knew better how to express himself and please Prince Duan. On the contrary, Lu Enru has always been very low-key and even concealed his shortcomings.
After that, Lu Ennan was arranged by Prince Duan to study with the prince, while Lu Enru still stayed at home with his teacher.
"Yeah, big brother, did you just come out from mother's place?"
"Well, father, please go ahead and I'll be out soon."
Lu Enyan did not hide anything and spoke directly.
Lu Enru was not surprised. He was more generous today and invited Lu Enyan to sit for a while.
The two of them sat in the pavilion in the back garden and asked the servants to bring them tea.
"Father seems to have changed a lot during this period..."
Lu Enru took the initiative to speak, and even his expression became intriguing.
Lu Enyan raised his eyebrows slightly, as if a little surprised by Lu Enru's initiative, but he quickly regained his composure and said calmly, "Oh? Why do you think so?"
Lu Enru picked up the teacup, took a sip, looked off into the distance, and said slowly, "Big brother, you may not know, but recently, my father's attitude towards me and mother seems to have become much gentler than before. He even occasionally asks about our daily lives, which has never happened before."
Upon hearing this, Lu Enyan thought to himself that he had naturally noticed the changes in his father, but he didn't expect that even Lu Enru had felt it.
He asked calmly, "Then why do you think Father has changed like this?"
Lu Enru did not answer immediately, but took another sip of tea.
"Perhaps, it's the years of misunderstandings that have been resolved, allowing Father to recognize his true heart. However, I know very well how he treats Mother and me; it's all due to the Princess's care. Big brother, sometimes being brave isn't necessarily a bad thing. No matter what, you should always hear it yourself to avoid any misunderstandings, like what Father has done to the Princess over the years..."
Lu Enyan was silent for a moment, then said, "Father's thoughts are always hard to understand. We don't need to worry too much about them. We just need to do our duty well."
The two chatted about some irrelevant topics until the tea was finished, and then Lu Enyan stood up to say goodbye.
In fact, Lu Enyan understood that Lu Enru was hinting to him that if he really liked Gu Ruanci, he should take the initiative to fight for her and trust her.
How did this kid know something that no one else noticed?
"How did he know?" Lu Enyan asked specifically.
The attendant beside him couldn't help but say, "My Lord, recently whenever the matter of Chaoyang County Princess is mentioned, you become like a peacock. Everyone can see it..."
Lu Enyan couldn't help feeling embarrassed when he heard this. He coughed to cover up his gaffe.
"What nonsense! This prince would never do that."
Seeing this, the servant dared not say anything and quickly retreated.
Lu Enyan felt a little confused. He didn't expect that his emotions would be so obvious that even others could see it. What about Gu Ruanci?
He thought of Gu Ruanci's eyes that were as clear as water, and couldn't help feeling a little uneasy, wondering if she had also noticed his feelings.
However, on second thought, even if she noticed it, so what? Would I still be afraid of her?
Lu Enyan calmed himself down and decided not to think about these troubles anymore. It would be better to deal with the current issues first.
