After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

Chapter 508 The love between father and son
Night falls.

Lu Qi sat alone in the room.

The servants came to clear the dishes and found that the food on the table had not been touched.

The servant said worriedly, "Prince, is the food not to your liking?"

"Withdraw."

Lu Qi said lightly.

The servant said with concern: "I asked someone to change the food. I heard from the concubine that the prince likes to eat wine-fermented meatballs."

Lu Qi's voice suddenly turned cold: "I told you to retreat!"

The servants looked at Lu Qi in surprise, unable to believe that the prince, who was once as gentle as jade and never got angry with servants, could actually have such an angry side.

The servant dared not say anything more and brought the food out.

When he walked out of the yard carrying the food box, he happened to meet Prince Jin who was returning home late at night.

He bowed quickly: "Your Majesty."

King Jin motioned for him to open the food box.

The servant took away the lid: "Not a single bite has been touched."

Prince Jin went to Lu Qi's house.

Lu Qi said coldly: "Didn't I tell you I don't want to eat?"

"it's me."

King Jin said.

Lu Qi clenched his fingers, suppressed his coldness, hid the madness in his eyes, stood up and bowed to King Jin, and said calmly: "Father."

King Jin walked into the room and sat down opposite him.

He asked, "I heard you have no appetite, but are you feeling unwell?"

Lu Qi said: "I'm just a little tired."

King Jin looked at his right hand and said, "I was so anxious to discuss countermeasures with the Imperial Master that I forgot to ask you about your injury. Do you want to see a doctor?"

Lu Qi felt a burning pain in the palm of his hand.

His expression did not change at all: "It's just a minor injury, it's not a big deal, there's no need to mobilize a large force."

Prince Jin said sternly, "You are my son, the only heir to the Prince Jin's Palace. It wouldn't be a big deal even if we invited all the imperial doctors to our house."

Lu Qi didn't say anything.

"Let Father see it."

King Jin said to him.

Lu Qi stretched out his hand.

Prince Jin held his hand and smelled a faint scent of medicine, but there was no trace of medicine on the wound.

"I'll apply the medicine myself later."

Lu Qi withdrew his hand.

King Jin glanced at him, sighed, and said, "You were not raised by my side since you were young, so it's only natural that you are a little distant from me."

Lu Qi said: "The son dare not alienate his father."

The King of Jin said, "A gentleman talks about deeds, not hearts. That's all. You and I are father and son, and blood is thicker than water. There is no need to discuss this. Be prepared for the grand ceremony in three days."

Lu Qi asked indifferently: "What preparations should I make for Lu Linyuan's enthronement ceremony?"

King Jin smiled and said, "Perhaps on that day, it will become your enthronement ceremony."

Lu Qi looked at King Jin suspiciously: "Father and the Pavilion Master have a plan?"

King Jin smiled coldly and said, "Lu Linyuan is Lu Yuan. Your royal grandfather has made a final judgment that he is not, but can he shut us up and stop the people's gossip? As long as his identity is confirmed in front of the people of the city on the day of the palace, the crime of deceiving the emperor will never be cleared. At that time, your royal grandfather will have to abolish his Qilin identity, whether he wants to or not."

Lu Qi said: "It seems that my father and the Pavilion Master have already come up with a foolproof plan."

Seeing that he did not show any excitement, the King of Jin sighed and said, "Your father understands that what happened today was a big blow to you, but every horse stumbles and every person makes mistakes, not to mention that Lu Linyuan has been pretending to be a fool, which led to the King of Jin's Mansion being careless and underestimating the enemy. This kind of thing will never happen again in the future. Your father promises you."

Lu Qi remained silent.

King Jin smiled and said, "This time, the Pavilion Master will personally take action. Not only can he destroy Lu Yuan, but he can also completely kill Lu Zhaoyan."

Lu Qi paused for a moment and asked, "What is the Pavilion Master going to do?"

"You'll know then."

King Jin patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's getting late. You should rest. I have something else to do. I'm going out for a while. If you want to go out for some fresh air, you can come with me."

The moment the King of Jin crossed the threshold, Lu Qi spoke softly, "Father, if I were not the Kirin who protects the country, would you still value me?" The King of Jin said earnestly, "You are my only son. Everything that father has will be yours in the future."

Thinking of something, the King of Jin looked up at the crescent moon above his head and casually said, "The golden wound medicine in the Crown Prince's Mansion is not useful. It's best to throw it away."

After Prince Jin left the palace, he sat in the carriage and waited for a long time.

The driver said, "Your Majesty, the prince didn't catch up."

King Jin's expression remained unchanged: "Let's go."

"Yes."

The driver whipped the horse and drove the carriage into the night.

Lu Qi sat in the room, feeling extremely upset.

Dou Qingyi came in with a bowl of chicken soup: "Qi'er, mother made chicken soup. I was wrong just now. I shouldn't have only cared about your win or loss. Can you forgive me?"

Lu Qi said: "I don't blame my mother."

"really?"

Dou Qingyi's eyes lit up and she looked at him expectantly.

The look Liu Qingyun gave Lu Yuan suddenly flashed through Lu Qi's mind. He frowned and said, "Mom, don't imitate others anymore."

Dou Qingyi was stunned: "What did you say?"

Lu Qi's eyelashes trembled, he picked up the chicken soup and drank it in silence.

The atmosphere in the room was a little awkward.

Dou Qingyi stroked the handkerchief in her palm and asked Lu Qi, "Do you want me to serve you another bowl?"

"I'm full, thank you mother."

Lu Qi put down the empty bowl and asked, "Mother, how does father plan to deal with the Crown Prince's Mansion?"

Dou Qingyi's eyes flashed: "How would I know about your father's affairs?"

Lu Qi looked at her straight.

Dou Qingyi felt guilty after being looked at, and waved her hands: "Okay, okay, I overheard it too. Your father is planning to assassinate Lu Zhaoyan and put the blame on Lu Linyuan for his death."

Lu Qi asked: "When will we start?"

Dou Qingyi said: "Tonight."

Lu Qi frowned: "I just lost the competition. If I attack the prince now, aren't you afraid of arousing suspicion?"

Dou Qingyi sighed, "Your father is not a fool. He will not kill him tonight. Instead, he will arrange a dangerous assassination. His purpose is to poison him. The poison will not have any abnormal effects within three days. Instead, it will take effect at the ceremony. Then, he will say that Lu Linyuan killed him!"

At this point, a trace of ferocity flashed in her eyes, "I don't want him to die either, but who made him abandon us mother and son and choose that bitch Liu Qingyun?"

"It's getting late, you should rest. I have something else to do, so I'm going out for a while. If you want to go out for some fresh air, you can come with me."

With the words of King Jin emerging in his mind, Lu Qi looked outside the house.

Father, are you going to assassinate Lu Zhaoyan tonight?

No, he wouldn't do it himself.

But he wanted to see Lu Zhaoyan get caught with his own eyes.

Lu Qi said softly: "Mom, I'm tired and want to rest."

Dou Qingyi patted her head and said, "Look at me, I forgot that you must be tired after competing all day. I'll come to see you tomorrow morning. By the way, I'll make you whatever you want to eat."

Lu Qi said: "Sea bass soup."

Dou Qingyi felt relieved when she heard her son's long-lost affection. "Mom will definitely go to the kitchen to pick out the biggest sea bass tomorrow!"

Lu Qi sat quietly in the room, recalling what Dou Qingyi and Prince Jin had said.

If he were the father, tonight would indeed be the best time to take action against Lu Zhaoyan.

After all, no one would have expected that Prince Jin's Mansion would be so impatient to take action tonight, let alone targeting Lu Zhaoyan.

Lu Zhaoyan is Lu Yuan’s father, what does his life or death have to do with me?

Lu Qi lay down with his clothes on.

Turning around, I saw the golden wound medicine on the bedside table.

He turned over and went back to sleep.

The night wind blows hard and the chill penetrates into the bones.

He turned over, threw back the quilt, grabbed the golden wound medicine on the bedside table, changed into night clothes and left the house.
