the meal was ready, the men at the table had already started drinking small amounts of liquor and were having a lively time.Their bursts of hearty laughter echoed through the courtyard, lingering lon...The Third Princess looked puzzled and motioned for Caiyun to take the small box.

General Wen said, “Princess, I am overjoyed that you and the Crown Prince are getting married. Originally, I intended to go to Kyoto to personally witness your union with the Crown Prince. Unfortunately, due to constant harassment from foreign tribes at the southwestern border, I am unable to do so.”

This time, the little one came over, and the old general entrusted the little one with some gifts. He insisted that the little one deliver them personally to the princess.

"The old general said, the princess is the concubine of the crown prince, the daughter-in-law of the Lu family, and after she gives birth to a young master, she will even manage the southwest army. In this world, no treasure is enough to thank the princess for marrying into our family."

"In the future, please take good care of Young Master, Princess. The Lu family will surely remember your kindness!"

As he spoke, Wen Junshi knelt down and paid his respects.

This posture is quite low, isn't it

The third princess was momentarily dumbfounded. She had guessed that the Lu family would be anxious, angry, and heartbroken.

But I never expected that the Lu family wouldn't even mention the prince being imprisoned, and instead came bearing lavish gifts.

And with each word, she uttered a "thank you," showing no resentment or worry whatsoever...

She pondered for a moment, then replied, “General, please return. After you go back, tell the old general on my behalf how much I appreciate his kindness. Please…don’t worry about things here in Xindu.”

Wenjun's eyes lit up, and he immediately bowed again. In the end, he didn't mention visiting the young master, but only called a slightly plump middle-aged manager to the car door to kowtow to the princess.

After chatting for a while, he took his leave.

The car door closed, and the third princess remained silent for a long time.

But Caiyun couldn't help herself, and whispered, "Your Highness, what does the Lu family mean Why aren't they worried about the young master"

The third princess waved her hand and opened the box.

The box contained ten thousand taels of silver notes and seven or eight shop deeds. Upon inspection, the addresses were all prime locations on Commercial Street.

The middle-aged manager outside the car is in charge of running these shops on a daily basis.

It can be said that the Lu family's wealth in Xindu has been completely handed over to her.

If Jia Yin were present, she would certainly applaud and cheer for the Lu family's actions.

This move, feigning retreat to advance, is truly brilliant.

Because the princess's temper is such that she responds to softness but not firmness!

As expected, the Third Princess closed the casket lid, her heart filled with a hint of hesitation.

General Lu, this father-in-law, treated his never-met daughter-in-law with such generosity and even promised that in the future, the military power of the Southwest would surely be passed down to her son. He truly went above and beyond.

There wasn't a shred of negligence or debt towards her!

Even though Lu Zong has a million shortcomings, for the sake of the old general's face, some leniency should be shown...

In the imperial study, the emperor was beaming, listening to General Wen recount the happenings in the southwest.

Wen Jun was meticulous in his reporting, informing on every detail clearly and concisely.

Finally, he added, "Your Majesty, the old general worries that the power of the Miaolei Sect will grow too great and eventually disrupt the new capital, causing you much trouble. Therefore, the old general requests an imperial decree to send troops to eradicate the Miaolei Sect, relieving you and the court of this burden."

The Emperor nodded and replied, “Good. Lu Aiqing is loyal and steadfast. I have always known this, or else I wouldn't have entrusted him with Tianwu Southwest. And Lu Aiqing has not disappointed me!”

"Today, when the heavens bring disaster upon us and the people are displaced, it is once again Master Lu who steps forward to ease my burden. My heart is filled with comfort!"

"This is settled! I'll have the Ministry of War draft an edict tomorrow!"

The military general promptly knelt and kowtowed, replying, "Thank Your Majesty for your trust! General Lu has always been eager to come to the capital to pay his respects in person, but unfortunately, he is preoccupied with his duties. Even at the wedding of the Crown Prince and the Third Princess, he was unable to attend due to his responsibilities, which filled him with regret."

"Speaking of which, the crown prince has been away for over ten years. The old general probably has forgotten what the crown prince looks like."

"But there's no need to rush this matter. The princess is blessed with good fortune and will surely give birth to a brilliant child soon. When the time comes, please allow them to return to the southwest for a visit as a family of three. The old general will be overjoyed."

The Emperor didn't hesitate and immediately replied, "This is as it should be. At the time, I will send more people to escort them back."

Wenjun's master flashed a smile, quickly kowtowed, and showered him with praise.

The emperor had removed a major concern from the hearts of the people in Mount Mi Le. This pleased the Dragon Emperor greatly, who bestowed many rewards upon them.

When Wen Junshi exited the study, it was also Yi Tongguan who personally saw him off.

Lu Feng and the others were waiting outside the palace, their necks craned forward.

Finally seeing Wen Junshi come out, with a lot of gifts in tow, he felt relieved and quickly went up to inquire, "Mr. Wen, how is it Did the Emperor agree to release the prince"

Wen Junshi glared at him until he got into the carriage and was alone before saying, "This matter cannot be directly told to the Emperor. As long as we guard the southwest well and wipe out the Mi Le Jiao, the Crown Prince will be safe and sound."

Since the Emperor could never chill the hearts of his loyal ministers!

"Instead, it's clear now that the Emperor knows the truth, so the Crown Prince is surely doomed."

Lu Feng was a little anxious and pressed, "Then will the Young Master still be confined to the Princess Manor…"

Wen Jun shi waved his hand, "Rest assured, the Young Master at most will have less freedom, there is no danger to his life. This is also good, now the situation is changing too quickly, if the Young Master is involved again, I'm afraid even the Prince's Manor will be implicated!"

Lu Feng deflated, wanting to say something but hesitating.

Wen Junshi ignored him and closed his eyes to meditate.

At this moment, in the Princess's mansion, the third princess was seated opposite Lu Zong drinking tea.

Lu Zong had lost a lot of weight, his brow and eyes full of anxiety, no longer with the gentleness and calmness of before.

“You keep me locked up every day. When will this end It's more agonizing than death! I am your son-in-law, you can't be so tyrannical!”

The Third Princess lowered her eyelids and sipped half a cup of tea slowly. Finally, she raised her head and looked at Lu Cong's rage with impotence, unable to help but laugh sarcastically.

"This is your doing, and now you're facing the consequences. Yet you look like this. Is that how a prince from the Lu family acts So weak and incompetent"

When she mentioned the Lu family, Lu Zong's face changed.

He's been locked up for so long, Lu Feng must be worried. Has he contacted his family yet Or maybe someone from his family came to see him

He excitedly stood up and exclaimed, "Who has come to our house Could it be my father!"

The Third Princess remained silent, instead asking, "What if your father arrived How would you explain yourself Don't you think that your father would praise you for what you've done"

Lu Zong instantly deflated, bowing his head.

Seeing him like this, the princess's envy and unwillingness only grew stronger.

"You have a good father, it's a pity you are an unfilial son!"

She got up and walked out, instructing the guard, "From now on, allow him to walk around in the courtyard every day, but he is not allowed to leave!"

Lu Zong chased after them and just happened to hear this sentence. He exclaimed, "Princess, is it my father who came What did he promise you Please don't make things difficult for him!"

The princess simply ignored him, sneering as she walked out the door.

At this time, he put on a show of filial piety. When he caused trouble at home, what was he thinking!

Come as you please, go as you please!

The next day, Wen Junshi returned to the southwest after receiving the official document.

After all, the army has already begun to suppress the Mi Le sect, while there are still disturbances at the border and elsewhere. With both fronts demanding attention, if General Lu makes even a slight mistake, his efforts will be in vain.
