Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Lu Beimo opened his eyes, looked up, and stared at her.

Under the moonlight, Ali's face was serene, as pure as a lotus flower.

Just looking at him made Lu Beimo feel as if his restless heart was being gently stroked by a pair of tender hands.

Suddenly, my heart was miraculously calmed down.

"Then, Ali, how should I deal with my father and mother now?"

"You really don't have an answer in your heart?" Chu Yueli asked instead of answering.

Lu Beimo did not answer the question, but just looked at her again, not knowing what he was thinking at that moment.

Perhaps, he wasn't thinking about anything, he just wanted to hold her, talk to her, and stay by her side forever.

"In short, remember this: no matter what decision you make, no matter what you do, Ali will always be yours and will always be with you."

Lu Beimo was so excited that he hugged her tightly.

She could feel his burning heat, but at this moment, it was indeed not the right time to continue entangled.

Chu Yueli smiled, tapped his forehead with her fingertip where he was trying to get closer, and applied a little more pressure.

"Although Eunuch An was able to persuade the Emperor to go back and change his clothes, I'm afraid he can't keep the Emperor waiting any longer. Hurry up, they are still waiting for you."

"Go out and let Jing Lei take you home. You don't need to wait for me."

"it is good."

Lu Beimo watched Chu Yue leave the direction of the palace until she could no longer be seen. Only then did he turn around and stride towards the emperor's palace.

The Emperor had indeed bathed and changed his clothes, and had drunk some sobering tea; he was resting.

Upon seeing Lu Beimo, the Emperor's eyes seemed to light up.

Such an outstanding son is truly lovable.

He used to have some concerns, but tonight, all his concerns are gone.

"Mo'er, there are some things I need to make clear to you."

"Father, please speak." Lu Beimo sat down to the side, his face calm and composed.

Eunuch An hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, this old servant will go and see if the tea and snacks are ready."

He quickly left the bedroom, dismissing all the palace maids and eunuchs along with him.

In the large bedroom, only the Emperor and Lu Beimo remained.

Now the Emperor had no more reservations and slowly said, "Back then, Emperor Qin Jian was cruel and tyrannical, which caused the people of Dongling to live in misery and the Dongling kingdom to be in grave danger, almost being swallowed up by other countries. Fortunately, the three brothers of the late Emperor stepped forward and overthrew the tyranny, not only preserving the Dongling kingdom, but also making the people of Dongling prosperous and living in peace and contentment."

He paused for a moment before continuing, "You weren't born when this happened, so you didn't know about it."

"Your subject has naturally heard of it." When the Emperor brought up this matter now, it was certainly not as simple as talking about the past. Lu Beimo did not say anything else and just listened quietly.

The emperor wanted to glean some insight from his son's face, but his son's face remained expressionless from beginning to end, making it difficult to discern his thoughts from his expression.

This is also one of the reasons why the emperor is having a headache. If he could see even a glimpse of the emperor's thoughts, things wouldn't be so difficult for him.

He stared at Lu Beimo.

Lu Beimo simply greeted him, letting him scrutinize him, unhurried and unhurried, so composed that it almost drove him crazy.

“My son, the world now belongs to the Lu family.”

"My son knows."

The Emperor finally couldn't hold back any longer, and his voice deepened: "Have you ever thought about taking back this empire for your mother's family?"
