After Lu Yi left Lu Lingxi's room, he immediately ordered the housekeeper Lao Wei to find the best teacher for Lu Lingxi.

Soon the news spread that the young lady of the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion had started to hire a teacher again, intending to seriously learn to read and write. I wonder how long this teacher can last. He will probably be forced to resign automatically by this arrogant young lady with various pranks like the previous ones.

That night, a secret guard dressed in black knelt in front of a man in white clothes with cloud patterns and gold edges.

"Your Highness! Miss Lu from the Zhenguo Marquis's Mansion has woken up, but she has lost her memory."

The prince frowned and said, "Amnesia? Have you found out whether it is real amnesia or just pretending?"

"Your Highness, I think he really has lost his memory. When he woke up, he didn't even remember his own name. He didn't recognize the maidservant around him, and he didn't even recognize General Lu."

"Oh? Besides amnesia, are there any other abnormalities?"

"There is nothing unusual, but Miss Lu seems to be unable to read. General Lu has hired a teacher to teach her how to read and write."

"I hope there are no other abnormalities. Did you mention me?"

"This..." The secret guard said with some embarrassment, "After Miss Lu woke up, she no longer wanted to commit suicide because of her amnesia. In addition, the wound on her head has not yet healed completely. General Lu ordered everyone in the mansion not to mention His Royal Highness the Crown Prince or Miss Lu's marriage to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for the time being."

The secret guard was nervous, fearing that his words would displease His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince of a country was actually despised to this extent.

"Okay, go down!" As expected, the prince ordered with an unhappy look on his face.

After the secret guard left, the prince chuckled with a self-deprecating look on his face. He thought to himself, "I didn't expect that such a cute little girl would be so stubborn and would rather die than marry me. It seems that I have to think of a way to stabilize her first."

Crown Prince Nan Wangyu had met Lu Lingxi once. It was the time of the Hundred Flowers Banquet in the palace. The empress, concubines, and a group of young ladies from official families gathered in the imperial garden to enjoy the flowers. Lu Lingxi was among them. The crown prince only took a quick glance at her and thought that the girl was really soft and cute. She pouted as if she was very dissatisfied with the person who was talking to her.

At that time, the prince only took a quick glance and went to the Qinzheng Hall to talk with the emperor.

After a while, the eunuch came to report that the young ladies from the official families in the Imperial Garden were making a fuss.

The emperor was shocked. "How dare someone start a commotion in the imperial garden when we were just admiring the flowers? Who is so bold?"

Seeing the emperor's rage, the eunuch immediately knelt down and replied, "Your Majesty, it was Miss Lu from the Marquis of Zhenguo Mansion. A group of young ladies from official families saw that Miss Lu didn't seem to know the flowers at today's banquet. They whispered and laughed at Miss Lu for being vulgar, and laughed at General Lu for being a military general's daughter who was so unbearable. Originally, they were just whispering behind her back, which was harmless, but Miss Lu had good hearing and heard a lot of it. She was so angry that she yelled, 'Who gave you the face to say bad things about my father? If it weren't for my father fighting the enemy on the battlefield and the soldiers fighting bloody battles, how could you have the peace and happiness now?'"

Hearing this, the Southern Emperor could not help but frown and said, "Too many women means trouble and too much trouble. Then what? A few quarrels won't cause a scene, right?"

"As soon as Miss Lu finished speaking, the young lady of the Censor's family hid behind the other women and muttered, 'We said you were rude, but what does it have to do with General Lu fighting the enemy on the battlefield? Now that General Lu is so powerful and has so much merit, can't we say a few words?' When Miss Lu heard this, she got angry and pushed aside the other ladies. She grabbed the young lady of the Censor's family by the collar and yelled, 'What nonsense are you talking about? My father is loyal to the country. If you slander him like this, I will tear your mouth apart and tell you to stop talking nonsense.' The young ladies of the official family were frightened by Miss Lu and fled in all directions. The Queen quickly asked the palace maids and eunuchs to stop the fight. They pulled the two apart and made a scene for a while."

"What about now? How is the situation? What about Miss Lu..." The prince thought that this little girl was very brave. She even dared to make trouble in the palace. He couldn't help but asked about the follow-up in a teasing manner.

Hearing the prince's question, the emperor and the eunuchs were stunned and couldn't help turning their heads to look at him. The prince smiled awkwardly: "Father, I just think Miss Lu is bold and interesting, and I want to hear the follow-up."

"Go on." After hearing this, Emperor Nan Zheng turned around and said to the eunuch.

"After that, the palace maids and eunuchs took great pains to pull Miss Lu and Miss Yushi apart. The Queen ordered someone to send Miss Yushi back home first, and then she consoled Miss Lu with a few words, then said she was tired, and the flower viewing banquet ended hastily."

"Okay, go down." After the eunuch finished his report, the emperor let him leave.

After the eunuch left, the Southern Emperor looked at the Crown Prince and jokingly asked, "Do you think this Miss Lu is interesting?"

The prince immediately raised his alarm bells: "Father, how do I know if this Miss Lu is interesting? I don't even know her. I just took a look at her in the Imperial Garden and I'm not sure which one is her. Are you trying to stuff women into my backyard again? There are already enough. You just said that too many women will cause trouble."

Emperor Nan Zheng: "You are wrongly accusing me. Not all the women in your backyard were sent by me. Some were given by ministers, and some were brought back by you."

The prince said with some regret: "Father, I don't mean to blame you. I know that you asked me to take those women back to the palace to help me win over the court officials and consolidate my power so that I can succeed to the throne smoothly in the future. But I think it is unreliable and dishonorable to rely on women to consolidate my position."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor of Nanzheng sighed and said, "Yu'er, there is nothing you can do. Your mother passed away early and your mother's family has no power. In order to protect you, your father can only resort to this last resort. If you don't ascend the throne, how can the Queen and your second brother keep you when I am dead a hundred years later? If something happens to you, how can your father be worthy of your mother's last words?" As he spoke, the emperor seemed to be on the verge of tears.

The prince quickly interrupted: "Your Highness, I understand your intentions. I will make the arrangements as you say."

When the Emperor of Nanzheng heard the Crown Prince's offer, he immediately became excited: "Yu'er, this is really the last time. Your father will never force a woman on you in the future. Most of the other young ladies from official families have many sisters. They think that if they promise their daughters to you, you will be related to them. If you are not in power, it doesn't matter if they abandon a daughter. But Lu Yi is different. Lu Yi has only this one daughter. It is said that he has always spoiled her. Miss Lu is also filial and respects her father the most. The relationship between father and daughter has always been very good. If Miss Lu marries you, Lu Yi will definitely help you in the future."

The prince was still a little embarrassed after hearing this: "If such a delicate young lady is brought into the palace, who knows what will happen. Miss Lu admires General Lu Yi, and she probably hopes that her husband will have only one wife in his life like General Lu Yi, right? You can't accept so many women in the prince's palace, right?"

When the Emperor of Nanzheng heard the prince's hesitation, he immediately approached the prince anxiously and whispered, "Of course, this Miss Lu cannot be taken into the palace casually like the other women before. I plan to let you marry her as the prince's principal wife, so that it will be easier to convince Lu Yi to marry his daughter to you. It's okay for her to act a little bit when she enters the palace, as long as it doesn't hurt anything. If there are women in the palace that you don't like, you can also use her unruly temper to send them away. This can not only solve the problem, but also show that you dote on Miss Lu. Lu Yi will naturally be more satisfied with you in the future."

The prince replied somewhat helplessly: "Father, you really think long-term!"

The Southern Emperor patted the prince's shoulder proudly and said, "Stinky boy, who do you think I am working so hard for?"

When the Crown Prince heard what the Emperor Nanzheng said, he immediately became respectful: "Your Highness understands your father's painstaking efforts, and I will follow your arrangements in everything."

"Okay, I called you here today just to talk to you about this. You can go back first. I will go to the Queen to see her, and I will issue an order to grant you and Miss Lu a marriage in a few days."
