"Long live my lord, is the soup cold? I'll serve you a bowl of hot food?" Zhao Ruhai asked cautiously, seeing that Lu Mingwei hadn't taken a few sips for a long time.
"No need, Ruhai, you go and pass on my instructions now," Lu Mingwei put the bowl back on the small table, took the handkerchief from Zhao Ruhai, wiped the corners of his mouth gently, and then said slowly, " Prince Ning privately executed the third-rank court official without asking for instructions, and punished the first-rank Prince Huai with a stick. This is a heinous crime and should have been handed over to the Ministry of Punishment. However, considering his disability, he is now under the custody of the clan. "
"Yes, I obey," Zhao Ruhai said hurriedly.

"Your Majesty, if you are sorry, please put on your servant's clothes first to keep yourself warm." Xiao Anzi helped Lu Zhishan to go to the clan's mansion. When they reached a deserted place, he hurriedly took off his cotton robe. , put it on Lu Zhishan, and said with an apologetic smile, "Master specially asked the slave to wear an extra cotton robe to go out, just to prevent the prince from getting cold."
Lu Zhishan gathered up the coarse cotton robe on his body and looked at Xiao Anzi with a smile: "I really feel a little cold. You and your master are both worried."
"It is the duty of a slave to serve the prince," Xiao Anzi said hurriedly, while respectfully buttoning up Lu Zhishan. He could not help but see the scars crisscrossing Lu Zhishan's body, and couldn't help but sigh, "The prince has really worked hard these years. ”
Lu Zhishan pursed his lips lightly: "Is Master Long Live really sick?"
"Yes, Prince Qi, Master Long live is really sick," Xiao Anzi said hurriedly, looking at Lu Zhishan's face, he continued hurriedly, "Actually, Master Long live's health has not been very good in the past two years, but he has been drained of supplements. It seems to be progressing, so Long live Lord's dragon body has always been healthy, but since the Chinese New Year, Long live Lord has been angry, and has been very angry in the past few days. Even if there is no such thing as Wang Sir, Long live Lord will probably die sooner or later. If you are going to fall ill, please don't worry about it. Doctor Qin has said that the condition of Long Live Master is not important. He will only be able to survive for half a month. "
"That's the best," Lu Zhishan nodded and said, "Let your master take good care of Long Live Lord."
"Yes, I obey," Xiao Anzi said.

This was Lu Zhishan's first visit to the clan's mansion. Speaking of which, since the founding of the country, he was the second prince ordered to be imprisoned in the clan's mansion.
He stood in front of the clan's mansion, raised his head and looked at the three big characters on the plaque. The sun was rising in the east, and the sunlight made him squint slightly. Facing the dazzling sunlight, he slowly walked into the vermilion door.
Xiao Anzi watched the guard open the door, watched Lu Zhishan walk in slowly, and then watched the vermilion door slowly close. He stared at the door for a long time, and then he turned around weakly. He moved his body and walked towards the Hall of Supreme Harmony step by step.
He lowered his head and looked at the green stone bricks and his gray cotton boots. His legs seemed to be filled with lead, as heavy as gold.
What kind of place is the Zongren Mansion
It is a place specially used to imprison royal nobles who have made mistakes. However, this place is rarely used and the location is remote, so it is rarely mentioned. The last time it was discussed hotly was when the Yin Su Prince was imprisoned decades ago. , back then, the Yinsu Prince failed in his rebellion and was ordered by the then Emperor Yuan to be imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion for life. He had to die or be released. Two years later, the Yinsu Prince died in depression in the Zongren Mansion.
