Chapter 177.3
At this time, Ruhua hurried in from the outside and showed a flattering smile to Xuan Ge’er. “Young master, His Highness personally came here to pick you up.”
“My father is here?” Xuan Ge’er looked like he half believed her. Then as he looked at Xiao Xizi and the others, he felt that they wouldn’t dare to lie to him, so he sat down and asked them to put on his shoes for him.
“When I go back, I’ll tell my mother that I’ll come again tomorrow.”
The thing was he may be willing to come, but Xiaobao was not willing to play with him. Originally, he had planned to go to Qing Wang Manor to bring Yueyue back.
In the front yard, since Lu Wang came in person, Jin Wang, the elder brother, naturally couldn’t avoid seeing him.
When Lu Wang saw Jin Wang, he had an ugly expression, as if Jin Wang owed him a hundred thousand taels of silver.
Jin Wang wasn’t a stranger to this attitude of his, so he just sat there and drank his tea, not bothering to say a word to him.
In the end, Lu Wang couldn’t stand it any longer and sneered. “Fifth brother, your little brat is really something, not to mention how he coaxed my Xuan Ge’er to stay at your house all day, he doesn’t even want to go home now!”
Lu Wang was probably really unhappy to say such a long sentence without even breathing. Plus he was quite loud.
Jin Wang glanced at him, “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.”
These words blocked everything Lu Wang wanted to say. If Lu Wang had to say the most useless and regrettable thing he had done in his life, it was that he used to be Jin Wang’s little follower.
At that time, he was young, immature, and very rebellious. His mother consort, Imperial Concubine Chen, had urged him to spend less time playing with Jin Wang. However at the time, things like different factions and attracting hatred, he didn’t take to heart at all. Although he had agreed to his mother’s words with his mouth, he still continued to do as he pleased.
Back then, Lu Wang especially admired Jin Wang. Obviously, his fifth brother wasn’t much older than him, but his martial arts were so powerful. So when Jin Wang learned martial arts, he also learned martial arts. He dreamed that one day he could defeat Jin Wang, but this day never happened.
Not only that, but Jin Wang never went easy on him when hitting him. Every time he would beat him until he started crying for his father and mother. The two of them also shared a mutual grudge against the fourth brother.
But despite all this, Jin Wang only kept old seventh by his side.
Obviously, he was closer to the fifth brother!
It was one thing to be beaten up when he was young. At most, it would be a little painful. But if he was still beaten up when he was older, where would his face be as the sixth prince?!
So Lu Wang and Jin Wang fell out.
Now because of Jin Wang’s words, Lu Wang felt even more resentful as he recalled that time. Therefore, when Xuan Ge’er came out, he picked up Xuan Ge’er and left angrily.
Lu Wang made up his mind to be more strict with Xuan Ge’er from now on and to keep him far away from Xiaobao. That little brat was still so young, yet he was already so smart. He could coax both the young ones and the old ones. Look at how he coaxed his Father Emperor these days. It was to the point that he called for Xiaobao to stay by his side every day to accompany him. The eyes of old fourth and old eighth were already red with jealousy. What if they made a move and implicated his son?
He was about to give a few words of advice, when Xuan Ge’er suddenly grabbed the hem of his clothes and said enthusiastically, “Father, let me tell you, I’m coming here again tomorrow. I already discussed it with Xiaobao. I’m not going back after school tomorrow and I’ll be staying here overnight.”
Lu Wang choked back his words, staring at the kid in front of him.
This little brat wasn’t reserved at all, speaking so assertively and confidently.
Just like him back then.
Lu Wang had come to pick him up on horseback. He didn’t spoil his children, so Xuan Ge’er sat in front of him.
The father and son rode their way home, followed by four to five guards.
When they were about to reach Lu Wang Manor, Lu Wang suddenly stopped his horse and waved.
A guard ran up.
He whispered a few words to the guard. The guard nodded after listening, then turned back to go to Jin Wang Manor.
Actually, Lu Wang didn’t tell him to say much, only a little gossip that had reached his ears.
He couldn’t control his own cub, but for his cub to be safe and sound, he couldn’t be implicated.
Yes, that was it. He wasn’t being kind!
Jin Wang Manor:
Jin Wang received the news from Lu Wang and smiled.
To be honest, he already knew about it.
But it was still a favour more or less. It wasn’t a waste of energy for him to give him all those beatings back then!
