"Yes, my father has made plans for my son. I thank you." Lu Zhiyue kowtowed heavily.
"Okay, step back. You don't have to look so ashamed and incompetent when you meet Prince Ning and Princess Ning in the future. Always remember who you are and don't embarrass me again," Lu Mingwei said. He waved his hand patiently and said, "Back off."
"Yes, I have remembered it." Lu Zhiyue got up from the ground, bowed and stepped back. After a pause, he raised his head again and looked at Lu Mingwei cautiously. After all, he gritted his teeth and said, "But Father , I thought that this assassination was not just carried out by the guard, but there must be someone behind the scenes. Otherwise, how could a low-level guard openly assassinate the prince in the royal hunting ground? I really can't let it go, please, my father. …”
"Don't I know? How dare he openly assassinate the prince of the dynasty if he is a mere bodyguard without a backing?" Lu Mingwei said coldly, with a gloomy and stern look on his face, "It's just that this matter has already been implicated before it is even revealed. When we get to the East Palace and Prince Ning's Mansion, if we continue to investigate, we may involve many more people. Let's stop here and don't mention it again."
Lu Zhiyue frowned and said hurriedly: "But my father..."
"Okay! I told you not to mention it again!" Lu Mingwei shouted coldly, stopping Lu Zhiyue's words, "Go back, I'm very tired."
"Yes, my minister, please retire." Lu Zhiyue had no choice but to bow and retire. He dragged his two weak legs and moved out of the palace step by step.
"Prince, get in the carriage." The guard reminded Lu Zhiyue in a low voice.
Lu Zhiyue shook his head slowly, looking at the setting sun in the western sky like blood, and the bloody scene on the hunting ground appeared in front of his eyes...
"Lu Zhiyue, you bastard! Coward!" He cursed in his heart, and then closed his eyes in pain.

Du Heng was waiting for Lu Zhishan at the palace gate. He was anxiously waiting and circling in front of the carriage. As soon as he saw Lu Zhishan leaving the palace gate, he rushed forward to greet him. He was about to ask about the hunting ground in the western suburbs, but look Looking at Lu Zhishan's expression, he remained silent in the end. He helped Lu Zhishan get into the carriage, and he was too busy to get into the carriage. When the carriage started, he carefully asked Lu Zhishan: "I don't know how Long Live Lord will deal with it." The assassination at the Western Suburbs Hunting Ground?"
Lu Zhishan sneered and said: "The assassin committed suicide by taking poison. Even the guards in my house and the guards in the prince's house were killed. What else can be done?"
Du Heng paused for a moment and said in disbelief: "The princess is so seriously injured, how dare you not even let the general meet the assassin and ask a few questions in person?"
"In the eyes of Lord Long Live, the princess should have sacrificed her life for the prince. Besides, didn't he also reward the princess? He felt that this was enough to explain to Prince Ning's palace," Lu Zhishan's eyes condensed. He gritted his teeth and said, "He has decided on the spot not to discuss this matter again. If I dare to question it again, it would be disrespectful. He is making us all in Prince Ning's Palace learn to pretend to be deaf and dumb."
"Long live the Lord, you are really bullying me!" Du Heng was really not angry. He had always been a good-natured person, but at this time, his chest was rising and falling with anger. "Where did he put the princess? What's the point of being a general? What's more? What do we think of Prince Ning’s house?! Is the princess’s blood shed in vain? Are we going to see Prince Gong and the Crown Prince show off their power in the future?”
