Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord

Long Rui said indifferently, "Oh, I’ve heard there was an assassin visit last night. Who could it be? Turns out it’s the senior?"

The voice revealed no emotion at all, leaving it unclear whether the Prince was pleased or angry. Lv Yinfeng felt uneasy; he had been too reckless back then, failing to gather information thoroughly. He really shouldn’t have caused a commotion at the War Prince’s Mansion.

"The Prince, forgive my impudence. I was reckless for a moment and collided with you. Please pardon me." The Weirdo had repeatedly cautioned before leaving, not to mess up the Master’s affairs.

Xuexue glanced at him and asked, "I heard you left with the Weirdo last night. Did you know him before?"

Lv Yinfeng said, "Replying to the Imperial Concubine, he is my Master. We hadn’t seen each other for decades, and he was the one who recognized me last night. Otherwise, how would I dare recognize him in that state?"

From the Master’s words, Lv Yinfeng learned that the couple had already known about the Master’s true identity, so he hid nothing from them.

Xuexue asked, "Senior, were you previously under the Eldest Prince’s command?"

Lv Yinfeng cupped his hands and said, "I am indeed Lv Yinfeng, Sect Leader of the Dead Hall. This gang was also assisted by the former Eldest Prince."

Oh, so it turned out to be the power left behind by the Eldest Prince.

Xuexue suddenly understood, no wonder Lv Yinfeng was so obedient to the Weirdo; it made sense now.

"Brother Rui, why haven’t you come to my place for days? I miss you." Suddenly, a coy and coquettish voice rang out. Everyone turned to see a heavily made-up woman dressed in a pink gown, gracefully entering.

It was Gu Lingqiao, whom they hadn’t seen for days.

Xuexue’s smiling face turned solemn. She had always thought her relationship with Long Rui was stable, but since this woman’s arrival, she had begun to question her own judgments. Perhaps due to past life’s experiences, she could never fully trust men.

Long Rui sneaked a glance at Xuexue, seeing her calm face but her little hands clenched tightly, he knew she was unhappy. He quickly stood up and said, "Wife, the Empress Dowager has passed away. Let’s enter the palace to pay respects."

Xuexue looked up in surprise and asked, "Didn’t the Prince just say that such events were inauspicious and not to be attended?"

Long Rui replied solemnly, "I reconsidered. The Empress Dowager holds a noble status; if we don’t pay respects, it would displease the Emperor. Well then, let’s take a walk in the Imperial Palace; it wouldn’t hurt."

With that, he took Xuexue and left.

"Hey, hey, hey... Brother Rui... Brother Rui...!" Watching their receding figures, Gu Lingqiao was dumbfounded. What did Brother Rui mean by this? How could he leave upon seeing her?

Lv Yinfeng was also stunned. Why did the Prince and Princess Consort leave him behind? Could it be they were angry about him injuring the mansion’s guard last night?

"Steward, this... this...!" Lv Yinfeng looked at the steward with some embarrassment, then at the gifts on the table, thinking all the gifts he brought might be in vain.

The steward knew exactly why the Prince left in such a hurry. Glancing at Gu Lingling, it was all because of that vixen spirit, the Princess Consort was jealous, and of course, the Prince would leave quickly!

Since the person before him was in league with the Weirdo, the Prince and Princess Consort would definitely accommodate him, so the steward said with a smile to Lv Yinfeng, "Hero Lv, don’t worry about it. The Prince and Princess Consort had urgent matters in the palace. If you have any issues, you can tell me, and I’ll convey them to the Prince. How about that?"

He had no other affairs, just felt guilty for attacking the War Prince’s Mansion last night and came specifically to apologize.
