As soon as they saw Lu Zhiyue limping into the hall with Lu Zhishan on his arm, everyone stopped talking and laughing and looked at Lu Zhishan with different expressions.
Lu Zhishan's legs and feet were inconvenient, so Lu Zhiyue helped him kneel down, and the two of them kowtowed to the Queen Mother together.
"My grandson's legs and feet are inconvenient, which made the fourth emperor's brother late. It's really not my grandson." After the ceremony, Lu Zhishan kowtowed to the Queen Mother respectfully, "Please punish the Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother sighed: "Get up and take a seat."
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
Lu Zhiyue helped Lu Zhishan up, and the two sat down one behind the other.
"I see that the eldest prince's legs and feet are now strong, and it's time to marry another princess," Concubine Wan Gui said to the Queen Mother with a smile, "Long live the Lord's five princes, except for the fifth prince who is still young, and now only the eldest prince is left. The prince is alone, and the queen mother has to worry about the eldest prince. "
The Queen Mother also nodded: "That's what the noble concubine said."
Lu Zhishan was so busy that he knelt down with the chair in his hand and said respectfully to the Queen Mother Wan Guifei: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for thinking about me. I am grateful for my kindness. But with my body, how can I dare to get married? It's just a delay." This girl is just here for life."
Concubine Li sighed: "How can you think so, kid? It is precisely because of your poor health that you have to marry a princess to serve you well. Besides, you are the eldest grandson of the Queen Mother and the eldest prince of Long Live Lord. You can marry into the royal family. This is the blessing that many women dream of, and there is no need to delay it.”
The Queen Mother took a sip of tea and said, "You are not young anymore. It is outrageous not to have a princess in your house."
Lu Zhishan could only thank him and said, "Thank you for letting me, the Queen Mother, take the trouble."

After leaving the palace, Song Fu was so busy that he came over to help Lu Zhishan get into the carriage. Lu Zhishan didn't look good. Song Fu was worried that his knees hurt again, so he was so busy that he took a blanket and covered Lu Zhishan's legs. Leaning on the back of the carriage, he closed his eyes and meditated, unable to tell what he was thinking.
The carriage stopped in front of Prince Ning's Mansion. Song Fu helped Lu Zhishan get out of the carriage. Du Heng also rushed out to welcome him. The two of them helped Lu Zhishan into the mansion, one on the left and the other on the right.
"When will Princess Goryeo enter the capital?" Lu Zhishan asked Du Heng in a deep voice in the study.
"It should be... next March," Du Heng thought for a while before speaking, "Why did the general suddenly ask about Princess Goryeo?"
Lu Zhishan took a sip of tea and said, "When I enter the palace today, Concubine Wan Gui and Concubine Li have agreed to ask the Queen Mother to find a candidate for my princess."
Du Heng was startled: "The general has been back in Beijing for nearly four years and has been living in seclusion. Why don't they trust the general?"
Lu Zhishan smiled sarcastically: "I'm afraid my legs will be paralyzed and I will be bedridden so that they can rest assured."
Du Heng muttered: "Now, except for the fifth prince, among the remaining four princes, only the general and the fourth prince have not married a real wife. The Princess of Korea who came to Dali this time to get married, although she was born by a beloved concubine, is not a queen after all. The fourth prince, seeing Li Chu in sight, naturally would not marry a concubine princess from a small country. The general was from a first-grade county prince, and he was also the eldest prince. With his noble status, logically speaking, he did not have to marry the concubine princess, but if The ladies in the palace worked together to facilitate this, and the general was afraid that he would have to marry her. "
"Yes, if I marry a concubine princess of Goryeo and have such a lame leg, I will naturally not be able to block the way of their son." Lu Zhishan closed the tea lid indifferently, "But there is a princess It’s good, so you don’t have to have so many eyes staring at you and it’s inconvenient to get in and out.”
