Chapter 238 Searching

Lu Ling'er stared at Long Lin with a solemn expression, her mind firmed. "Long Lin, I can go with you, but I have one condition." Her tone was firm and forceful, as if conveying her unquestionable resolve. "You must release my father, Lu Chenting, and the other members of the Lu family you've captured."

At this moment, Lu Linger finally confessed her secret to everyone, impersonating Shen Kang's wife as "Shen Lin." She ignored the shocked expressions around her and looked directly at Long Lin. She knew that the people in the Zhennan Palace didn't recognize her, but she did recognize the Feng family. She was of the Feng family's bloodline and didn't want to implicate her closest relatives.

Long Lin was silent for a moment, then nodded solemnly, his tone revealing a bit of appreciation: "Miss Lu, don't worry, as long as you are willing to go to the Tianyu Medical Sect with me, I, Long Lin, will not break my promise."

Lu Linger nodded slightly and put forward her own conditions: "Okay. See you at the South City Gate tomorrow morning. I need to go back to the clinic to take care of the patients today. You don't need to send anyone to monitor me tonight. Once I agree, I will not break my promise. You can also take advantage of tonight to rest up and set off tomorrow."

"In that case, it's a deal." Long Lin clasped his fists and bowed, then nodded to the Feng family, "Prince, gentlemen, princesses, I, Long, will take my leave first and see you tomorrow." After saying that, he quickly left with the man in black, the aunt in gray, and the sinister man.

Seeing Long Lin and his group disappear, Feng Jingxuan turned around and said in a deep voice: "Ling'er, let's have dinner together tonight. I also want to hear about your plan." His words revealed his determination to protect her with all his strength.

Lu Linger smiled and nodded, then made arrangements: "The Crown Prince, the Young Master of the Feng Family, Sister Xinying, my uncle, and my two sisters, all stay. Mo Yan, Mo Xian, Zhishu, and Fu Dong, go back to the clinic and prepare your luggage. The rest of you can go back to Jishitang and Taoyuanxuan first and don't follow."

Feng Jingxuan and the others stared at Lu Ling'er with a slightly complicated expression. Feng Jingxuan seemed lost in thought before nodding and signaling for everyone to follow Lu Ling'er back to Nanyang Prefecture. Soon, they arrived at the Fulin Restaurant and dined in a private room on the third floor. All the Feng family's attendants were sent to the adjacent private room.

In the private room, the table was laden with food and wine. Lu Ling'er sat down, gently grasping Gu Yichen's hand. Her voice was soft but resolute, "Husband, I hope you understand my decision and support me. If there's anything you find unacceptable... let's divorce." She knew that if she didn't clarify the matter, it would only become more complicated, potentially endangering her family's lives. While she knew Gu Yichen was gentle and forgiving, she also knew the situation couldn't be ignored. Only by being completely honest could she finally let go of the burden.

Gu Yichen felt a faint unease, as if he had a premonition that the next words would overturn everything he had. Especially when Lu Ling'er mentioned the possibility of "divorce", his heart sank, and he could hardly bear to think about her leaving. He held her hand and whispered, "Ling'er, no matter what you say, I will not let you leave me."

Feng Jingxuan's eyes were serious as he whispered to the surrounding secret guards, "Everyone, stay downstairs and guard the building. No one is allowed to come up." After making the arrangements, he turned around and sat down, gazing at Lu Ling'er with a hint of concern and confusion. "Miss Ling'er, you can speak without worry now."

Lu Linger took a deep breath, finally mustering the courage to hand the jade pendant to Feng Jingxuan. "Actually... I am the sixth sister of your Feng family, and my twin brother is the fifth brother you've been searching for—Lu Yiheng."

A momentary silence fell in the private room. Feng Jingxuan, Feng Jingyan, Feng Jingsu, and Feng Xinying stared at the jade pendant with lightning-like eyes. Feng Jingxuan took the jade pendant with trembling hands, carefully examining the Feng family crest engraved on it, his palms slightly sweating with excitement. Feng Jingyan and Feng Jingsu couldn't help but murmur softly, tears welling in their eyes, as if they still couldn't believe the shocking truth before them. Feng Xinying choked up and looked at Lu Ling'er, her eyes a mixture of heartache and deep relief.

Gu Yichen stood there stunned, hardly believing his ears. Lu Ling'er was the youngest daughter of the Feng family, the jewel in the crown of the Zhennan Prince's palace, and the chosen Crown Princess from the very beginning! An indescribable emotion surged within him, astonished by her true identity and unsettled by her impending fate. He couldn't imagine the devastating crisis that would unfold if Emperor Yuande discovered her true identity.

However, Gu Yichen's younger brother Ji Junche and two older sisters, Yun Ruolin and Yun Ruoxi, who were present, felt a long-lost sense of relief. They vaguely knew that Gu Yichen was none other than Crown Prince Yun Junrui—only he had lost his memory and become a live-in son-in-law of a hunter family. They were delighted for Lu Ling'er, having initially worried that her hunter family wouldn't be a good match for the now amnesiac Crown Prince. But now, she was the Crown Princess betrothed to her since childhood. Ling'er was not only of the Feng family, but also about to become the Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace. And now, pregnant, it seemed like a match made in heaven.

Lu Linger looked at everyone's reactions, lowered her eyes slightly, and spoke softly, "I know this may be difficult for everyone to accept, and I don't want my family and husband to be dragged into the court disputes because of me. But now that things have come to this, I am willing to follow Long Lin to the Tianyu Medical Sect. Please rest assured that I will do my best to protect myself and will never let the Feng family suffer."

Feng Jingxuan sighed softly and looked at Lu Linger. "You are the blood of the Feng family. The Feng family will naturally not sit idly by. No matter how many difficulties and obstacles there are in the future, we will face them together with you."

Gu Yichen gently put his arm around her shoulders, his eyes full of determination, "Ling'er, I won't let you face this alone. Even if you want to protect me, it's impossible." He looked at Ji Junche and his two sisters, and vaguely sensed something strange in their eyes. Perhaps he was still hiding some truth, but at this moment he just wanted to stay by Lu Ling'er's side.

There was a moment of silence in the private room, with complex emotions flashing in everyone's eyes, but the deep affection and unspoken tacit understanding had already settled in each other's hearts, ready to face an unexpected storm together.
