At the same time, the attendants around Lu Ruojiang asked, "Young Master Lu, why do you care so much about that girl from the the Qin family?"
"I don't know," Lu Ruojiang said. "In the future, when you see her, it will be as if you've seen me."
"Understood."
Back at Zheng King's Mansion, Lu Ruojiang saw Father Lu sitting in the main hall. "Father," Lu Ruojiang bowed in respect. Without calling him, Father Lu asked with a stern face, "Why weren't you studying in your room today? Where did you go?"
"The son studied hard every day but couldn't understand the meaning. He thought about going out to see the world, hoping to gain a different insight."
"What you said makes sense, but let's forget about it for today," father Lu reprimanded sternly. "You must not neglect your studies in the future!"
"Yes."
......
Father Lu As the sworn brother of the emperor, he was granted the title of Zheng Prince for his outstanding military achievements during the founding of the dynasty. However, despite being a great hero on the battlefield, he was a complete heartbreaker in his personal life.
Lu Ruojiang's mother has been with him from his humble beginnings to now, but she has not enjoyed any of the glory and wealth. Instead, he has criticized her, calling her a lowly woman who is not fit for the public eye. If it weren't for father Lu having only Lu Ruojiang as his son, the Zheng King's Mansion would have long lost its place for the two of them. Despite this, Mrs. Lu passed away in depression, and although Lu Ruojiang has become the Crown Prince Zhengwang, the person he most wanted to share it with is no longer there.
Later, I don't know what was heard, father Lu started to force Lu Ruojiang to study again. In fact, Lu Ruojiang was originally knowledgeable, but father Lu was too eager for quick success and instant benefits, wanting to cram all the Confucian classics into Lu Ruojiang's head. In this situation, it's a stretch to say that Lu Ruojiang likes to study; not feeling disgust is already considered good.
And later, when father Lu realized that he might only have Lu Ruojiang as his child in this lifetime, he became even stricter in disciplining Lu Ruojiang.
There should be no mistakes in etiquette, and one should not go to any dangerous places. It's best not to go out, and if one does, they should bring enough guards.
There's also the mandatory course of horse riding that a young master from a prestigious family needs to learn, but Lu Ruojiang was strictly forbidden from doing so.
All of this is so unbearable, but Lu Ruojiang is too weak, and he has no choice but to endure. In the oppressive life, Qin Liangwan, who is equally miserable but braver than him, is a rare bright color in Lu Ruojiang's life. Back in the study, Lu Ruojiang looked at the piles of bamboo slips on the desk, and his mood slowly sank.
"Young Master Lu……"
"No, it's nothing. You can grind the ink."
"Okay."
...
As Lu Ruojiang and Qin Liangwan gave each other hope and strength, time passed by, and in the blink of an eye, three years had gone by. Lu Ruojiang, now eighteen, had become a well-known young man in the capital city, and almost every girl had dreamed of marrying Crown Prince Zhengwang.
And he also had the power to resist father Lu, although hindered by filial piety, Lu Ruojiang cannot do things too obviously, but now he is no longer a puppet manipulated by father Lu. The most obvious point is that Lu Ruojiang can finally make his own decisions about studying, instead of father Lu giving him orders on how much to read or for how many hours. Although father Lu has the leverage of filial piety to control Lu Ruojiang, as father Lu's only child, even if Lu Ruojiang openly defies him, father Lu won't really do anything to him.
On this day, Lu Ruojiang was preparing to go and see Qin Liangwan. As they grew older, Lu Ruojiang's reputation grew, and their meetings with Qin Liangwan became less frequent. There was no other reason than the fact that Lu Ruojiang was too easily recognized. Qin Liangwan didn't want the Zhu to know about their relationship, as he would definitely take advantage of his senior status to benefit himself.
