When Li Su thought of this, she sighed and touched Lu Yi Cheng’s head.
This poor child.
“Even if your father is talented, he doesn’t have this ability.
Look at those people.
Those kinds of specialised people aren’t just random people from all over the land.
Your father does not have the ability to mobilise such people.
Furthermore, your father can’t bear to hurt you.”

People from ancient times still attached great importance to sons and eldest sons, especially the eldest sons like Lu Yi Cheng.

Lu Yi Cheng’s eyes were red.
“But dad should have known, or he also acquiesced, didn’t he?”

Li Su didn’t know how to comfort this smart boy, so she sighed.
“Good child, don’t cry.
Let’s think about what we need to do in the future.”

Lu Yi Cheng lowered his head.

At this time, Li Su’s daughter began to cry.

Li Su quickly looked around and saw a ruined temple in front of them.
“Yi Cheng, let’s go there.
Your sister is hungry.
I need to feed her.”

Li Su hid behind the wall, untied the child, and lifted up her clothes.
She should have wiped herself with a towel first, but they had been fleeing for their lives.
There wasn’t much they could do about it.

Even though Li Su had been a mother many times, it was her first time breastfeeding a child.
She looked down at her daughter and her heart softened.
Lu Wen Da was a piece of shit and sooner or later would face retribution.
For now, she had to focus on raising two children.

In these ancient times, ethics were strict and especially harsh on women.
It would not be easy for her to support 2 children in this era.

Li Su bowed her head and thought.

The life of the Lu family was actually pretty good, but Lu Wen Da went to the capital to take the exam and took most of the family’s money with him.
Li Su raised 2 children at home alone, without financial resources, so she had to be thrifty and careful.

Today, Li Su only had a dozen silver liang and a small amount of copper on her.

What should she do in the future? Should she do business? However, in this time period, scholars, farmers, and business were last.
Lu Yi Cheng was smart so he would definitely take the imperial exam in the future.
There was no need to involve him.

Forget it.
She would ask Lu Yi Cheng.
He was smart, so he should have ideas.

Li Su fed her daughter and changed her diaper.
She then called her son over and told her about their current situation.
“Yi Cheng, what should we do in the future? Mother wants to hear your opinion.”

Lu Yi Cheng’s eyes were still red.
He was still affected by the previous events.
Li Su sighed when she saw him.
Forget it, she should comfort her son first.
No matter how clever he was, he was only 6 years old.
He would be in kindergarten if he was in her previous life.
“Actually, you can’t blame your father for this.
I would guess that your father was fancied by some dignitaries, or perhaps the princess? Can your father refuse such a temptation? Can any man refuse? If your father made such a choice, then mother can understand!”

Lu Yi Cheng looked at Li Su in surprise.
“Mother!” Why wasn’t she sad at all? How could she say such a thing so calmly?!

Li Su smiled.
“You know, your mother is the daughter-in-law of the Lu family.
Your grandfather bought me from someone for a couple of silver back then.
I have always been like a sibling to your father.
It’s just that your grandfather and grandmother were very good to me.
Back then, I married your father to make your grandfather happy.”

“But mother, you are father’s original wife.
You had my younger sister and I and maintained filial piety to grandfather and grandmother.
Even if the princess fell in love with my dad, my dad shouldn’t just cast you off!” Lu Yi Cheng said with a serious face.
“I know dad can’t refuse power, but if it was me, I would never be like that.
Power should not be abused, one should not be corrupted by wealth and honours, and people should not be shaken by poverty! This is the true nature of a man! I am ashamed of dad’s behaviour!”

“Well said!”

Someone had entered the ruined temple without either of them noticing.

Li Su was shocked and pushed Lu Yi Cheng behind her to protect him.

“Madam, don’t be nervous.
I’m not malicious.” The voice of the visitor was a little sharp.
He was dressed in a brocade and looked about 30.

Li Su stopped talking and merely guarded her children.

Jiang Zhi En laughed.
“I’m here just for you.”

Li Su frowned at that comment.
Could it be that he was from the palace? No, it should not be the case.

“Your husband’s name is Lu Wen Da? You know, he was the number one scholar at the Qiong Lin banquet.
He attracted Princess Chang Shan’s attention, who is the first in-law of the imperial palace and the sister of the crown prince.
The emperor and empress knew that Lu Wen Da had a wife, so they were unwilling to marry them.
But, Princess Chang Shan looked for Lu Wen Da and threatened death.” Jiang Zhi En laughed.

Lu Yi Cheng’s eyes widened and his chest heaved violently.

Li Su already knew the plot, so she was not surprised.
She just wondered, “Who are you? Why did you come to find us?”

“Madam is so smart.
She deserves to be the wife of the number one scholar.” Jiang Zhi En smiled.
“I am the eunuch, Jiang Zhi En.”

Li Su was shocked.
Jiang Zhi En was Li Yi Cheng’s master.
Under his influence, Li Yi Cheng had figured out the preferences of the 12th prince.
With this, he was able to become the 12th prince’s most trusted person.
He bided his time and waited until the crown prince fell from power.
It’s just that he only made a move after Li Yi Cheng entered the palace.
Why was he here now?

“The department of rites eunuch? What do you intend to do?” Lu Yi Cheng stood up while Li Su was startled.

“Cooperation? Do you want to cooperate with us?” Li Su asked.

“Yeah! Princess Chang Shan has taken your husband and has tried to kill you.
Don’t you want to take revenge? Or is it that, since you have escaped by chance, you are willing to hide yourself and never come out?” Jiang Zhi En’s eyes were fixed on Lu Yi Cheng.
He knew that his hope of revenge would most likely be realised by this child.

“Okay, I promise to cooperate with you!” Lu Yi Cheng said firmly after thinking about it for a moment.

“Yi Cheng!” Li Su said in surprise.

“Mother! We got lucky this time.
If the princess insists on having him as a consort, then to preserve the imperial family’s face… Even if we escape for a while, we will have to die sooner or later! We can’t just wait around and die!” Even after learning that Lu Wen Da had been deceived and was just sitting around and watching the three of them get killed, Lu Yi Cheng no longer wanted to call him his father.

Li Su wasn’t good with words.
Her first few children were stupid and clever.
But, someone with a high IQ like Lu Yi Cheng was a child she had never encountered.
She didn’t know how to get along with this kind of person.

Li Su still hesitated, but Lu Yi Cheng turned to look at Jiang Zhi En.
“My lord hasn’t mentioned how we should cooperate yet!”

“It isn’t advisable to stay here for a long time.
The guards of the East Palace are here to kill you.
They are smart, so they will soon figure out something is wrong.
You might not know, but human and wood ashes are different.
You should leave here with me first!” Jiang Zhi En looked at Lu Yi Cheng with satisfaction and smiled.

Li Su frowned.
Yes, she had been negligent.

“Don’t worry.
I have already cleaned up the mess for you.
Let’s leave here first.” Jiang Zhi En smiled slightly and walked out first.

Li Su looked at Lu Yi Cheng seriously.
“Yi Cheng, have you thought about it?”

Lu Yi Cheng’s eyes were firm.
“Mm.
Mother, I have thought it over.
Don’t worry.
I won’t let anyone bully you or younger sister.
No-one!”

Li Su sighed and touched Lu Yi Cheng’s hair.
If this was the child’s destiny, then she can’t stop it.
All she could do was protect herself and prevent her and her daughter from being used by others to threaten him.

Li Su then took Lu Yi Cheng and her daughter into the carriage.

The carriage drove for a long time before coming to a small town.
Jiang Zhi En was wealthy, so he took them to an inn.
After Li Su took the children to freshen up and change clothes, Jiang Zhi En came by.

Li Su sat beside the bed and was coaxing her daughter to sleep.

Lu Yi Cheng poured tea for Jiang Zhi En, then sat opposite him.
“My lord, I don’t understand.
I am Lu Wen Da’s son.
What could I do?”

Jiang Zhi En smiled.
“Princess Chang Shan bullied others and your father was greedy for power and tried to kill you.
Do you want to take revenge?”

“Naturally!” Lu Yi Cheng said firmly.

Li Su looked up at Lu Yi Cheng, worried.

“That’s fine.
Our goal is the same.
The only purpose in my life is to take revenge.
It’s such a shame that Princess Chang Shan relies on being the crown prince’s sister to do whatever she wants.
Taking revenge will involve the crown prince! You are extremely clever and you are a child prodigy.
With time, you will be able to become a great weapon.” Jiang Zhi En laughed.

“Who is your master?” Although Lu Yi Cheng didn’t understand the situation in the capital, he still guessed something from Jiang Zhi En’s words.

 Jiang Zhi En looked at Lu Yi Cheng, even more satisfied.
“You are really smart.
I follow the orders of His Royal Highness, Prince Qi.
Ah, His Royal Highness, Prince Qi is the son of Highest Ranking Imperial Concubine Qian.
Highest Ranking Imperial Concubine Qian is the niece of the empress dowager and the cousin of the emperor.
Highest Ranking Imperial Concubine Qian and her son are deeply favoured by His Majesty.”

“So you take orders from His Royal Highness, Prince Qi?” Lu Yi Cheng did not care who Prince Qi was, but he took note of this point.

“What a clever child.
Yes, I don’t believe that Prince Qi is my master.
In fact, it is very simple.
I will do whatever for someone who can help me take revenge.
In fact, whether it is Prince Qi or one of the other members of the imperial family doesn’t matter to me.
They are all the same.
They are lucky, were born into a good family, have power, and never consider the people.
As everyone knows, all of us subordinates are also people who suffer pain, affection, and hate.” A cold look flashed through Jiang Zhi En’s eyes.

Li Su was a little worried when she heard this.
Jiang Zhi En sounded a bit crazy.
If what he said was true, then it meant that he knew about Lu Yi Cheng a long time ago.
Perhaps the series of tragic events that Lu Yi Cheng experienced in the original on his way to the capital were designed by him.
Then the words he heard after entering the capital and even the castration was all a part of this guy’s plans for revenge.
It took more than 10 years to set this all up, and all for the sake of revenge.
He was crazy!

Working with such a person was dangerous!
