Lu Lingzhi came back very late. Ye Zhen was accompanying the old lady for a walk in the garden to aid digestion. When she saw him coming back, she took a step back.
"Grandma, I'm back." Lu Lingzhi held Old Madam Lu's hand and looked back at Ye Zhen.
"Why did you come back today? Is your foot okay? " Old Madam Lu looked at Lu Lingzhi's injured foot worriedly. Just now, she saw that he walked unsteadily. "Go sit down in the pavilion over there."
Lu Lingzhi smiled. "I didn't walk much today. I accompanied the emperor to the hunting ground. I just watched from the side and didn't go hunting."
"How can you go hunting in this state?" Old Madam Lu said, "Yao Yao got four A's today. We called for a banquet and were waiting for you to come back to celebrate."
Lu Lingzhi said with a smile, "I already know about it. I saw Yao Yao's drum dance in the academy today. She danced very well."
"Really?" Old Madam Lu's eyes lit up.
Ye Zhen had already wanted to leave first, but when she heard Lu Lingzhi's words, she had to smile and say, "Grandma, I will dance for you in the future."
Old Madam Lu immediately smiled and nodded in agreement. She then turned to Lu Lingzhi and asked, "Although our Lu Clan doesn't need to rely on unorthodox means to let Yaoyao enter the academy, that princess is really too much. You have to keep an eye on her in case she stirs up any trouble behind our backs and prevents Yaoyao from receiving the academy's … what's it called?"
"I will." Lu Lingzhi nodded.
Ye Zhen frowned. She didn't think of this. Even if she got four A's, if she didn't get the admission letter, she would still not be able to go to the academy. Although this possibility was extremely small, who knew if Liu Hua would do something behind her back?
Lu Lingzhi said, "The little prince is watching this matter. Princess Liu Hua will not dare to do so."
"Little prince?" Old Madam Lu was a little puzzled. What does this matter have to do with the little prince?
"Yao Yao saved the little prince by accident before." Lu Lingzhi smiled and reminded, "Grandma, you can rest assured that the two teachers who deliberately made things difficult for Yao Yao today have been expelled from the academy by the dean."
Ye Zhen was a little surprised. "So fast?"
Lu Lingzhi said, "They are twisting words and forcing logic in front of the young prince. How could the young prince let them off?"
What he didn't say was that this matter was actually because Mo Rongzhan had sent someone to inquire about it, which was why the dean of the academy had decisively chased the two teachers out.
Subconsciously, he didn't want his sister to know too much about Mo Rongzhan.
Ye Zhen had a good impression of Mo Rongyi in her heart. This little boy was really courageous. In less than a day, he had punished the two teachers.
After sitting for a while, Old Madam Lu felt a little tired. She asked Chen Zhao to help her back to the room to rest.
There was only Lu Lingzhi in the pavilion. Ye Zhen was not interested in sitting here facing him. As soon as Old Madam Lu left, she immediately followed her.
"Yaoyao." Lu Lingzhi stopped her and stood in front of her. "I heard from Third Uncle that you plan to live in the dormitory from now on?"
Ye Zhen thought of Lu Xiangzhi's warning and reluctantly smiled. "Yes, it's more convenient to live in the dormitory."
Lu Lingzhi glanced at her. He wanted to persuade her with a few words, but thinking of her temper, he swallowed the words back. "Take the maid with you."
"No, I can take care of myself." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
"Other people in the dormitory must also bring maids. You don't have to worry about attracting attention." Lu Lingzhi said.
Ye Zhen smiled faintly and looked at him with raised eyebrows. "Even if I don't bring a maid, I'm already very eye-catching."
Lu Lingzhi was stunned when he heard this, then chuckled. "That's true."
"How did big brother go to the academy today?" She just heard him say that he saw her dancing, but she didn't notice him at all.
"I happened to pass by the academy." Lu Lingzhi explained vaguely, not wanting to say that he followed Mo Rongzhan to find the young prince and saw her dancing.
Ye Zhen suddenly remembered that when her soul was trapped in the palace, she hadn't seen him for a while. Thinking about the corresponding time, it seemed to be about this time. "Aren't you the assistant minister of the Ministry of War? Why are you so free every day? Isn't the border not peaceful now, and there are rebels everywhere? "
"Originally, the emperor wanted me to lead troops to suppress the rebels, but now I'm injured, I'm afraid I can't go." Lu Lingzhi smiled bitterly. In fact, he also hoped to lead troops to suppress those rebellious vassals. Although he was now a marquis, he still needed merits to stabilize the position of the Lu family in the emperor's mind.
Mo Rongzhan was different from the former emperor. He was not an emperor who could be controlled by others. After following him for so many years, Lu Lingzhi knew very well how powerful the current emperor was.
From an unfavored King of Qin, he was patient, steady, resolute, strategizing, and omnipotent. Everyone around him couldn't help but want to follow him, work for him, and sell their lives for him. Lu Lingzhi used to have such hot-blooded sentiments.
Although he still has it now, he has unknowingly asked for something different.
Since when did he have a guilty conscience and guard against Mo Rongzhan? It seems that … since he poisoned Ye Zhen on his own initiative …
"I made a new medicine that will make your foot heal faster." Ye Zhen said. She regretted giving Lu Lingzhi the medicine with spirit spring water so that he wouldn't have to stay in the capital. "I made a new medicine that will make your foot heal faster."
More importantly, he would be seriously injured when he went to suppress the rebellious vassals. After that, he would have to recuperate at home for half a year before he could recover.
Ye Zhen didn't want to change these things because of her rebirth. She didn't want to see Lu Lingzhi escape this disaster.
"How do you know that my eldest brother wants to lead troops to battle?" Lu Lingzhi asked with a smile.
"Any man with courage wants to make a career. If my eldest brother didn't have such a heart, how could the Lu family have today? How many people's blood did you step on to get where you are today? Are you satisfied with this? Don't you want to make more achievements?" The Lu family was not a century-old family. It had no foundation or connections, so it needed more and greater achievements to stabilize its position. Ye Zhen's words poked Lu Lingzhi's mind.
Lu Lingzhi looked at her in surprise. "How can a little girl like you know so much?"
Ye Zhen snorted. "Do you look down on a little girl like me?"
"I didn't mean that. My eldest brother was surprised." He used to think that Yao Yao was a wild little girl, but he didn't expect her to have such insight.
"Do you want my medicine or not?" Ye Zhen asked.
Lu Lingzhi had seen the effect of her medicines and naturally would not refuse. "Thank you, Third Sister."
The corner of Ye Zhen's mouth rose slightly. "I'll let the maid send it to you later."
It would be better if he could lead troops to battle and die on the battlefield, so that she wouldn't have to worry about revenge in the future!
