Taking away my family's luck? I won't stand it!

Chapter 630: Two Excited People

...............

Duke Lu's Mansion................

The wife of Duke Lu and Duke Lu waited at home until late at night. The two elderly people kept pacing in the front hall, looking anxiously up at the door leading to the corridor. When they didn't see the person they were looking forward to appear in the corridor, they couldn't help but feel disappointed and anxious.

Lu Jiu walked in and walked down the long corridor. He saw the two elders, who should have gone to bed early, pacing back and forth in the front hall. They looked surprised and asked in confusion, "Dad, Mom, why aren't you asleep yet so late?"

The two elders heard their son's voice and rushed to Lu Jiu, asking in unison: "Jiu'er, have you ever been with the woman taken in by the Yuan family?"

Lu Jiu nodded, "Yeah, what's wrong?"

"Do you feel familiar with her?" Lady Lu asked hurriedly.

Duke Lu: "It's the kind of familiarity and intimacy that only family members have."

Lu Jiu met the two elders' gazes and nodded, "She is very familiar, and Ci'er also likes to stick to her."

The two elders grabbed Lu Jiu with joy, their faces filled with uncontrollable happiness. "Really? You felt it too, didn't you? Only mother and son can have this bond!"

Otherwise, Ci'er wouldn't stick to a strange woman.

"What's wrong? What mother and son?" Lu Jiu was very confused.

It just feels familiar.

Madam Lu took out a painting she had drawn earlier and said excitedly, "Look at this painting! The place where we dreamed of your sister is exactly the same as what Yaoyao described tonight! It was from this place that Yaoyao rescued Yan'er!"

Lu Jiu frowned as he listened to Lady Lu's words. "Mom, I know you miss your sister very much, but Yan'er doesn't look like you at all, and..." Xiao Ci paused, then continued, "...and she can't see."

How could such a strange face be my sister?

These words instantly woke the two elders up and they stood there in a daze.

They all forgot this. Her face was different from Nannan's and her eyes were blind.

But what about that familiar feeling?

They are not willing to give in!

"There's nothing strange in the world. What if something happened to your sister that we don't know about?"

Lady Lu thought of Yaoyao's peculiarity, and also considered that there were even orcs in this world, so it was possible that something strange had happened.

Lu Jiu fell silent after hearing this. His mother was right. They all felt familiar with Yan'er, and this feeling couldn't appear without any reason.

"Let's all go to the Yuan family tomorrow and spend more time with Yan'er to see if her habits are similar to your sister's." Duke Lu knew that it was useless to say more now, it would be better to spend more time with the person involved and confirm it.

Sometimes appearance doesn’t mean anything. Yaoyao said at that time that Nannan was taken away after someone faked her death, so it’s not impossible that her face was replaced.

And the strange thing that happened that night in the imperial mausoleum, the person lying in the coffin was not Nannan...

"Okay. You guys go to bed early." Lu Jiu nodded.

Madam Lu Guogong grabbed Lu Jiu's hand and said, "Jiu'er, you should go to bed early too. Don't get too tired."

Looking at his slightly tired face, Lady Lu felt distressed but could not help him at all, so she could only give him the most useless advice.

She knew that Lu Jiu had too much responsibility on his shoulders. Duke Lu had gradually become exhausted because of his daughter's affairs. In recent years, because of the sudden misfortune that his two sons had suffered, he rarely appeared in the court. He seemed to be thinking of retiring.

The huge burden of the Lu Mansion fell entirely on Lu Jiu.

She felt distressed but helpless...

"Don't worry, Mom. I'll have a good rest after I finish this matter." Lu Jiu said with a smile.

The two of them supported each other and returned to the house.

Lu Jiu watched the two elders return to the house, then turned and walked towards the study.

..........................

The General's Mansion.

It was dawn......

There was no one in front of the general's mansion.

There were only two servants clearing the snow at the door.

There was a lot of snow and it took some effort to clean it up, but the two servants didn't feel tired at all.

Because when they woke up in the morning they ate two big meat buns and drank a big bowl of hot porridge. The taste was always lingering in their mouths. With this thought in mind, the two of them worked very hard.

However, an uninvited guest came.

The two servants stopped and looked at the magnificent carriage, muttering to themselves.

Didn’t the housekeeper say that there were guests coming?

Looking at the two women coming out of the carriage, they looked either rich or noble.

Dressed in palace attire and with a dignified and solemn expression, her eyes swept over them, and just one glance made people straighten their backs.

Someone in the palace?

Although she was puzzled, she still politely stepped forward and asked, "What brings you two maids to the General's Mansion?"

Fenghua and Shuangyue ignored them and came to the carriage, gently lifted the curtain, and said in a gentle voice: "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, we have arrived at the General's Mansion."

The two were stunned when they heard what the nanny said.

Emperor........Emperor...

Too...Prince?

He knelt down immediately.

"Your Highness! Your Highness!"

The emperor got out of the carriage and said gently, "Get up."

The two servants stood up trembling and stood where they were.

This was the first time they had seen a noble from the palace since they grew up.

And he is a noble person above all others......

"What are you two doing standing there like idiots? Why don't you go into the mansion and tell Madam?" A voice as loud as a bell came from behind.

The two men came to their senses and hurried into the house to inform the lady.

Boss Yuan came before the emperor and saluted, "Your Majesty, it's cold outside, please come into the palace."

The emperor looked around and saw that there was no one around. He looked at the three people in front of him and said, "I told you not to call me emperor outside."

"Yes!" Boss Yuan, Fenghua, and Shuangyue nodded.

Several people entered the general's mansion.

Ye Wan was arranging the tasks that the maids in the mansion needed to do, but he was startled when he heard the two servants who were originally sweeping the snow in front of the door say that the emperor and the prince had arrived.

Why are the emperor and the prince here?

And it’s just dawn.

I remembered what Old Lady Liu said yesterday, that two maids from the palace would come to the general's mansion today to teach her etiquette. Could it be that the emperor and the prince would send them out personally?

Thinking of this, she immediately asked someone to call Old Lady Liu and bring people to boil water and make tea.

At the same time, the carriage from the Prime Minister's Mansion also quietly came towards the General's Mansion.
