The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine

Not long after Lu Lingxi fell asleep, her sworn brother Lu Yugang returned to the mansion. He had received news from Lu Yi a long time ago, saying that Lu Lingxi was dissatisfied with her marriage to the Crown Prince, and she had attempted suicide, hit her head, and lost her memory. He wanted to rush back immediately, but Lu Yi told him to be patient and wait until Lu Lingxi's condition stabilized before coming back. The doctor told her to rest well after waking up and not to let her emotions fluctuate too much.

So Lu Yugang waited in the army for a month. In the afternoon, he received a message from Lu Yi, who ordered him to go back to the mansion to accompany Lu Lingxi. He then explained the situation to his superiors and asked for leave to go home. After all, Lu Yugang was the adopted son of the Marquis of Zhenguo, so it was not difficult to ask for leave. Moreover, when Lu Yi brought the letter to Lu Yugang, he also informed Lu Yugang's superiors. Lu Yugang packed up and rushed back to the Marquis' mansion.

As soon as Lu Yu arrived at the gate of the mansion, a servant came to lead his horse. The housekeeper was also waiting at the gate. When he saw Lu Yu enter the door, he reported: "Master, the master asked you to go to the study to find him as soon as you return to the mansion."

"Okay, Uncle Wei, I'll go right away." Lu Yugang nodded and replied to the butler concisely.

Lu Yugang walked quickly to Lu Yi's study. Lu Yi was reading official documents. When he saw Lu Yugang coming in, he put down what he was holding.

As soon as Lu Yugang saw Lu Yi looking up, he half-knelt and saluted respectfully: "My son greets his adoptive father!"

"Hurry up, let's be more casual as a family. There's no need to be so restrained every time." Lu Yi walked over to the desk and helped Lu Yugang up. Then he walked to a chair nearby and sat down.

"Godfather, how is my sister doing now?" Lu Yugang asked as soon as Lu Yi sat down.

"Lingxi has been losing her memory for nearly a month, and there has been no sign of her memory recovering. This is a good thing. It will allow her to slowly accept her marriage with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and it won't be so extreme." Lu Yi replied.

"Can my sister really accept it? Didn't she admire people as devoted as my adoptive father the most?" Lu Yugang asked in confusion. Could it be that a person's personality would change after losing his memory?

"You two have been separated for so long, but you still know your sister very well. Although your sister has lost her memory now, she still insists on being together for the rest of her life. It's really difficult for her to accept being the Crown Prince's concubine." Lu Yi said with a headache.

"What should we do? My adoptive father has made great achievements in war and is highly regarded by Your Majesty. Can't he plead for mercy from Your Majesty?" Lu Yugang said angrily.

"Hey! I know you feel sorry for Lingxi, and so does your father. But no matter how great your military achievements are, you are still just a subject. 'If the king wants your subject to die, the subject must die.' You must know that, right? What's more, Your Majesty doesn't want to kill me now, he just wants to marry me." Lu Yi sighed.

"The day after Lingxi's accident, I went to see His Majesty and explained that Lingxi was spoiled by me. She was willful and capricious, had no knowledge of poetry and literature, could not do housework, and did not look like a girl at all. She was not suitable to be the Crown Prince's wife. But His Majesty said: 'The Crown Prince's wife does not need to do these things. Just enjoy your life. It is no different from being in the Marquis' Mansion.'"

"It's not easy for me to say it directly. Lingxi doesn't like the fact that the prince's harem is too full and not loyal enough. So I said Lingxi has a stubborn temper. Even as her biological father, I can't persuade her to stop making a fuss about not wanting to be a young lady in the Marquis' Mansion. She hit her head against a stone pillar and is still lying in bed now."

"After hearing this, His Majesty was furious: 'Is she threatening me? Or is it you, the Marquis of Zhenguo, who is threatening me? You must know that this whole world belongs to the king, and all the subjects in this country are my people. Can't I make the decision on a small marriage on my territory? Do I have to listen to the arrangements of your Zhenguo Marquis Mansion?'"

"The Emperor has said so much, what else can I do? I have to apologize and agree to this marriage."

"The Emperor also said: \u0027General, rest assured, Miss Lu is the apple of your eye, and the prince is the apple of my eye. When Miss Lu comes into the family, they will be husband and wife, and I will naturally not treat my daughter-in-law badly. \u0027"

After listening to Lu Yi's words, Lu Yugang comforted him: "I understand my adoptive father's situation. We are just subjects. We still cannot disobey the imperial decree. It's just that my sister has been wronged."

"Lingxi has become much more stable this time after waking up, and is willing to study hard. She used to be ignorant and fearless because she knew nothing. I hope she can become smarter and more worldly-wise, and understand the difficulties of being a father." Lu Yi was very pleased when he mentioned Lu Lingxi's recent performance.

"Godfather, don't worry. My sister has always been the most filial. She will understand you." Lu Yugang comforted him.

"This time, your father asked you to come back. First, you want to accompany Lingxi out of the house to relax. Second, you have performed very well in the army. Your foster father should reward you. Just tell your father what you want."

"Everything I have today was given by my adoptive father. How dare I ask for a reward from him? Being able to be with my sister tomorrow and the day after tomorrow is the greatest reward he can give me." When Lu Yu heard Lu Yi say that he wanted to reward him, he immediately humbly refused.

"Hey! Child, you have been in the family for such a long time but you are still so polite to your father. Yu Gang, you know that your father has selfish motives in adopting you as his adopted son. Your father is old, and one day he will have to go first. Then Lingxi will have no one to take care of her. You and her are destined to be together, and you have a friendship since childhood. I hope you can help your father take care of her a little more." Lu Yi said earnestly.

"Godfather, you are too polite. You are in your prime now. There is no need for you to worry about these things." In fact, even if Lu Yi didn't say it, Lu Yugang would have taken good care of Lu Lingxi. He was really grateful to her.

"You are still young and may not understand. Some things are better considered in the long term. That is, you should take advantage of the fact that I still have the energy and strength to protect you. Let you grow up well under my protection, so that you will not be at a loss if you suddenly lose this layer of protection one day. This is also the reason why your father sent you to the army for training early. You don't think your father is too cruel to you, right?"

"Don't worry, foster father. I understand your good intentions and will definitely gain experience and make achievements in the army." When Lu Yu heard Lu Yi speak his mind without any reservation, he felt grateful and saluted to express his feelings.

"Yes, yes, okay, okay. I know you have always been a good and obedient child." As he spoke, he raised his hand to dissuade Lu Yugang from bowing.

"Tomorrow you and Lingxi will go out of the house for a spring outing. First, you must protect her safety. Second, you must be careful not to mention her marriage to the Crown Prince in front of her, in case she cannot accept it. Third, you must also be careful of the Second Prince. For the sake of the military power in my hands, the Second Prince may also set his sights on Lingxi. You must not let him do anything out of line when Lingxi is out of the house." Lu Yi solemnly instructed Lu Yugang.

"Okay, kid, I understand."

"It's getting late. You should go back to your room and get some rest. You have to get up early tomorrow." Seeing that they had almost finished talking, Lu Yi stopped talking.

"I'm leaving now, and please go to bed early, father!"
