Lu Yunxu smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe I am really stupid."

God knows how panicked he was after he had that guess within a few hours.

He couldn't believe that his grandmother and father, who loved him so much, were the ones who wanted to harm him.

It can be said that his perfect world is crumbling.

He had doubts, which led to the temptation just now.

He saw the expressions of his father and grandmother just now, and he had the answer in his heart.

It was those answers that made his world collapse in an instant!

For more than ten years, he lived in a false lie.

Lu Yunxu glanced at Qiao Jinlan with a complicated expression: "Fortunately you woke me up."

Qiao Jinlan raised her hand to stop Lu Yunxu from continuing, "Wait for me for a moment, let me slow down."

His change was so fast that she couldn't adapt to it for a while.

When Lu Yunxu saw her like this, he couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips. He was not completely useless. At least he scared her.

Qiao Jinlan calmed down for a while before asking, "What did the prince see?"

Lu Yunxu's eyes turned cold: "Grandmother and father want to ruin me."

His grandmother's doting on him was understandable because it was a relationship between a different generation.

However, the problem arises when his father indulges him on the grounds that he cannot rebel against his grandmother.

If it weren't for this return gift, he really wouldn't have known that his cousin, who usually regarded money as dirt, had so many good things in her hands.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He carefully recalled his experiences from childhood to adulthood and was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

"You've seen it a long time ago, right? Otherwise, why would you say those words?" Lu Yunxu asked.

What's the point of mentioning the regent?

She was being very tactful.

Qiao Jinlan smiled: "I came up and told you what I saw, will the prince believe it?"

"Besides, I don't have any evidence."

Lu Yunxu was frustrated: "I don't have any evidence either."

However, he just felt that his grandmother and father's attitude towards him was not right.

"Why don't we observe a little longer... The prince should be able to find the answer to the matter of the marquis inviting a teacher to his place this time." Qiao Jinlan knew that Lu Yunxu still needed further verification.

After all, they were his biological father and grandmother.

It is not easy to make a person believe that the person closest to him has been harming him.

Lu Yunxu nodded with difficulty: "Is it because I am not as smart as Lu Liangyi that my grandmother and father gave up on me?"

Qiao Jinlan looked at Lu Yunxu who was doubting his life and sighed softly: "Have you ever thought, my lord, that if your guess is right, they want to ruin you."

"Then we will suppress you in all aspects!"

"They say Lu Liangyi is smarter than you and learns faster than you... Have you ever thought that he actually learned it a long time ago and deliberately pretended to learn faster than you in class?"

Lu Yunxu: “!!!”

"Is it still possible?"

They are so shameless!

Qiao Jinlan smiled slightly: "Isn't the prince familiar with the art of war?"

Lu Yunxu: “…”

After a long while, Lu Yunxu sneered: "I really didn't expect that such a thing would be used on one's relatives."

"Tell me, why do they want to destroy me and train Lu Liangyi?"

Lu Yunxu looked at Qiao Jinlan.

Qiao Jinlan saw the painful struggle and the panic of wanting to find answers in his eyes.

She sighed.

For a seventeen-year-old boy who was suddenly hit by such a cruel reality, Lu Yunxu's reaction was considered quite calm and quite good.

"Does Your Majesty really want to know?" Qiao Jinlan asked.

"You say." These two words came out directly from between Lu Yunxu's teeth. His tense muscles betrayed his inner thoughts.

Qiao Jinlan said: "According to my experience, in this situation, only a biological father would cultivate his own son in this way."

Lu Yunxu suddenly leaned forward and moved his mouth, but did not speak. Instead, he continued to listen to what Qiao Jinlan said.

Qiao Jinlan pretended not to notice his strangeness: "My father doesn't like my mother, but likes Tian, ​​so naturally he likes Tian's daughter Qiao Jiaojiao better than me."

"After my mother passed away, Tian went from being a concubine to being my wife."

"I remember that although my grandfather had made great contributions, it was still difficult for him to support the entire Anyang Marquisate with his wealth."

Lu Yunxu admitted this: "When my grandfather was alive, our family lived a rich life, but not as luxurious as it is today."

"Grandfather has always been frugal and doesn't like those ostentations."

When my grandfather was alive, the Marquis's Mansion was not as grand as it is today.

"People die for money, birds die for food. There are not many people like my grandfather." Qiao Jinlan did not continue the previous topic, but just seemed to sigh.

Lu Yunxu no longer needed Qiao Jinlan to say anything.

When smart people talk to each other, they stay within the meaning.

Did he even let Qiao Jinlan tell everyone that his father was shameless enough to cheat his mother of her money?

"We are husband and wife. If you use me to leave the Qiao family, I will also give you the respect that a prince's consort deserves." Lu Yunxu stated his position.

The two of them are in the same boat now, and mutual benefit is the best outcome.

"That's great." This is what Qiao Jinlan needed. "Sir, we have a pleasant cooperation."

Lu Yunxu nodded, looking a little solemn.

He is waiting for a result.

He really didn't want the reality to be what he guessed, and he didn't want Lu Liangyi to have anything to do with his father.

If that was the case, what had his father always been to his mother?

His mother has given so much to this family. If his father did that, would he still be a human being?

Lu Yunxu would rather hope that he was just imagining things and overthinking.

It all depends on whether his father hires a teacher for him this time.

Lu Yunxu closed his eyes, hoping that his father would not let him down.

After Lu Yunxu calmed down, he went to see his mother the next day.

"Mom." Lu Yunxu looked at his thin mother and called in a low voice.

Lin looked at the haggard Lu Yunxu in surprise and was frightened: "Xu'er, what happened to you? Didn't you sleep all night?"

Her son's bloodshot eyes made Lin worried: "What happened? Tell me."

Lu Yunxu's lips trembled as he murmured, "Mom, I think I was too ignorant before."

"In the future, I will study hard and not let my mother worry about me so much."

"Silly child!" Lin smiled with relief, "Mother never worried about it before. Xu'er has always been a good child."

My son doesn’t like studying, but he is kind and filial, and that’s enough.

"I will be better in the future." Lu Yunxu felt even sadder when he saw his kind mother.

If his father lied to his mother...he would never let it go!

Apart from the showdown with Qiao Jinlan, Lu Yunxu's daily behavior remained the same as usual.

His growth, which was like opening up his Ren and Du meridians, made Qiao Jinlan admire him very much.

Lu Yunxu will definitely be a big shot in the future.

As for the matter of finding a gentleman, Marquis Anyang will definitely do something. The chess pieces she laid out a few days ago can now be put into action.
