Lu Yuanxi naturally knew that the imperial decree should not be profaned, and this trivial matter was just the beginning.

"Yuanxi, my father has already ordered someone to prepare a car. Since His Majesty ordered you to enter the palace to study with me from now on, we, as courtiers, naturally cannot resist the order."

Lu Yuanxi was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and looked at Lu Hongwen.

"Father, do you still mean the phrase 'the king wants the minister to die, but the minister has to die'?"

Lu Hongwen was startled.

When did he say such a thing in front of Lu Yuanxi?

Lu Hongwen squatted down, looked at Lu Yuanxi at the same level, and said: "Yuanxi, you should know that the Holy One is the king, and we are the ministers."

"If the merit is high, is the only way to die?" Lu Yuanxi looked at Lu Hongwen and asked.

Lu Hongwen moved his lips, wanting to say something, but finally turned into a sigh.

"Yuanxi, you are still too young, there are some things, you will understand when you grow up."

Lu Yuanxi lowered his eyelids slowly.

"Retire, child."

After finishing speaking, Lu Yuanxi stepped out of the main hall, ready to enter the palace.

Lu Hongwen looked at Lu Yuanxi's back, complexities flashed in his eyes.

No matter what, he didn't regret picking up the child, but after the child woke up, he always felt that something had changed in him.

Lu Yuanxi got into the carriage, and on the way to the palace, he didn't say a word.

Now that he has decided to protect the Zhenbeihou Mansion, he will never back down.

Even if he is misunderstood by people all over the world, as long as he can protect the Zhenbeihou Mansion, he will not hesitate!

When Lu Yuanxi got off the carriage, he saw a large group of people standing at the gate of the palace, and standing at the front of the crowd was a small figure.

Leng Manxiu.

A name silently emerged in Lu Yuanxi's heart.

After Leng Manxiu went to ask Emperor Cang Ji for the imperial decree, he waited outside the palace gate. No matter how the eunuchs behind him tried to persuade him, Leng Manxiu always stood there indifferent.

It wasn't until the carriage of Zhenbeihou's Mansion appeared outside the palace gate that Leng Manxiu's expression softened.

Although he knew that Lu Yuanxi knew how to endure humiliation, he was also afraid that he would reject Emperor Cang Ji's will on the grounds that his body had not recovered.

But looking at it now, Lu Yuanxi is still the same Lu Yuanxi.

Lu Yuanxi stepped forward, bowed his hands and saluted: "See Your Highness the Crown Prince."

"Exemption."

Leng Manxiu, who had been indifferent and unwilling to speak, finally opened his mouth.

In Lu Yuanxi's impression, Leng Manxiu has always been the representative of seldom talking. Not only did he seldom talk, but he was also fierce and brutal when he grew up, so much so that he was 26 years old in his previous life and didn't even have a housemate.

"Lu Bi."

Leng Manxiu called him.

Lu Yuanxi was startled: "What orders does Your Highness have?"

Leng Manxiu frowned imperceptibly, and said, "Gu...my surname is Leng, my first name is Mo, and my name is Manxiu."

Lu Yuanxi was a little confused.

Leng Manxiu's name is known to everyone in the world, why do you have to explain it to him again?

Confused, Lu Yuanxi gave his name politely: "Chen, the surname is Lu, the name is Bi, and the character is Yuanxi."

Leng Manxiu looked at him, silent.

Lu Yuanxi didn't know what he did wrong, but it seemed that Leng Manxiu's mood didn't seem very clear.

"Let's go."

Leng Manxiu turned around and left first.

Lu Yuanxi followed behind him, speculating on Leng Manxiu's intention just now.

It was after he called out the word "His Royal Highness" that Leng Manxiu announced his family name. Could it be that he hoped that he would not be too outsider?

Was Leng Manxiu so awkward when he was a child?
