Lu Zhao paced back and forth before the prison gate. The warm spring sun was already starting to feel scorching, its light blinding as it fell upon his face. He couldn't help but squint in order to bear the glare and look toward the massive prison door.

After a while, the gate of the prison creaked open. Seeing Lu Zhi year being helped out staggering inside, Lu Zhao hurried forward.

"Saburo!"

“Father...”

When Lü Zhi Nian saw his father, he felt a sense of reliance. He couldn't help but shout out in relief, and tears welled up in his eyes.

Lu Zhao saw his embarrassed appearance and also felt pity, only patted him and said, "Get on the carriage first, let's talk when we get back."

Hold on.

"Wu Kui, who had been following closely behind, suddenly spoke up to intercede: “Master Lu, although we have temporarily clarified the matter of Master Lu San, you can go back first. However, I still need to remind you, Master Lu, that next time, please avoid going to inappropriate places to prevent unnecessary misunderstandings.”

Lu Zhao's face darkened: "I don't need your input!"

Wu Kui shrugged: "This subordinate is only being kind. If Lord Lu doesn't want to listen, then so be it. However, this subordinate still wants to remind you."

"Master Lu San is still under suspicion. Our supervisor, considering Master Lu Zhongshu's advanced age and frail health, and the generous compensation given to the County Lord of Yiyang, has temporarily allowed him to return home. However, until the Song family case is resolved, he remains a suspect. Therefore, during this period, Master Lu San must go to the Privy Council every three days and may not leave Beijing without permission."

"The Lord has already shown leniency by releasing him from prison. I implore the Lu family not to disrupt the established order."

Lu Zhao heard this and his face turned extremely ugly. Just as he was about to say something, Wu Kui bowed to him and said: “There are still important matters in the Privy Council, so I won't say much more to Lord Lu. I shall take my leave first.”

Without waiting for Lu Zhao's reply, Wu Kui turned and walked away. The rubbing of his armor, and the casual way he placed one hand on his sword hilt, left the members of the Lu family with faces ashen.

"These Black Armored Guards are simply despicable," Lu Rong endured and endured, but finally roared with anger, "Just a mere corporal, someone who can't even stand on the stage, yet dares to be so disrespectful to you!!"

Regarding official rank, and background.

This Wu Gui, what is he, to dare be arrogant in front of the direct heir of the Lu family!

Lu Zhao looked at them with cold eyes. "He is wicked, but their master is even more so."

A pack of rabid dogs, following a vile and despicable person, become emboldened by their association and run amok.

If it weren't for Xiao Yan supporting them, these Black Armor Guards wouldn't dare act like this!

Lu Zhao only felt extreme humiliation, and even more resentment towards Xiao Yan. He was furious that he hadn't killed him on the outskirts of Beijing that day.

He took a deep breath to suppress the anger in his heart, and when he turned his head, he saw Lu Zhizhen's face was as pale as paper, his lips were cracked, and he looked haggard. He forced down his anger and said: "Get in the car first, and go back home."

Lu's carriage was parked in front of the prison. Lu Zhi year had been beaten and was injured, with a thick layer of padding laid on the carriage.

When Lu Rong helped him onto the carriage and leaned against the cushion, Lu Zhi Nian truly felt he had left prison. The swaying carriage made him uncomfortable, but compared to that dark and damp dungeon, everything outside already felt better.family."But divination is three parts true, six parts false, and one part luck. Besides the Duān Mù family's divination method, other fortune tellers are just like that.As for the Dumumu clan, they wo...
