low-key is king

Chapter 58
"Lu Dai, are you trying to rebel?"

The concubine was not intimidated by such aura, she just let out a cold voice, and what she got in return was the more intense sneer on Lu Dai's face.

"Taking action against you, Zhao Lijing, may not be a rebellion!"

The sneer on Lu Dai's face turned into a sneer, and then he shouted loudly: "All the guards listen to the order, the life and death of the father is unknown, follow me into the palace to protect you!"

"Order!"

The captains of the guards, including Chen Xian, had different moods, but none of them disobeyed the order at this moment. General Dongqi has controlled the private soldiers of the palace for many years, so he has his own prestige.

In addition, the behavior of the princess at the moment is really abnormal, and Lu Dai said that they are escorts. Naturally, they have to obey the orders, which is the bounden duty of a soldier.

"I see who dares!"

At this moment, when Wang Hao and Li Hua were about to be pushed aside by the guards, a roar suddenly sounded, making everyone startled, and the movements of several guard captains also stopped.

Everyone turned their eyes, and immediately saw two figures coming in a hurry, the first one was holding a black cat in his arms, it was Lu Xun, the second son of the palace.

Seeing this person, many people's eyes were filled with contempt, and after Lu Dai's disdain, a trace of greed flashed in his eyes.

After all, at the Auction of the International Chamber of Commerce in the afternoon, Lu Xun bought a good thing, and finally sold it for a sky-high price of [-] top-grade gold beads and a mustard seed bracelet.

For Lu Dai, this was a great temptation.

Originally, Lu Dai didn't see Lu Xun just now, so he thought that after this incident, he would get the things as soon as possible, but this kid didn't show up on his own initiative, which saved him a lot of trouble.

And Lu Dai was still thinking, there is nothing more exciting than seeing his father die and his mother become a prisoner.

What is the second son of the palace, shit!
"Xun'er, why are you here?"

The concubine's acting skills are also overwhelming at this moment. In the eyes of everyone, she is protecting her precious son.

When this conflict is about to break out, Lu Xun's arrival will not be of much use at all.

"Mother and concubine, don't worry, if they want to enter the palace today, they have to step over the corpses of you and my mother and son. I want to see if they have such courage?"

There was a look of determination on Lu Xun's face, seeing Asha next to him curl his lips, and Cao Song on the opposite side was also struggling a bit, secretly thinking that this second young master is more proficient than acting.

"Lu Xun, you think too highly of yourself. You don't have to kill people if you want to enter the king's palace!"

Lu Dai has never taken Lu Xun seriously. He himself is a martial artist who has completed the three realms. As he said, he still needs to kill the few things in front of him?
Of course, Lu Dai didn't dare to kill the mother and son in public, it would cause him a lot of trouble.

But as long as King Zhendong is dead, he has [-] ways to make the life of the mother and child worse than death.

The so-called weeds must be eradicated. Since he has decided to seize the power of the palace, the more justifiable concubine, mother and son, even the eldest son and Lu Ling'er, will definitely not be left alive in the near future.

"Lu Dai, you are the Dongqi General of Zhendong Palace, and you are the adopted son of your father. Are you really going to do such a benevolent thing today?"

Lu Xunyi was speaking sternly, but these words only drew a sneer from Lu Dai.

When is this, this kid is still talking about some great truths, after ten years away from home, he really didn't learn anything.

Yan Ruoxia, who was still worried about Lu Xun's demon moth at first, couldn't help but feel completely relieved when she saw Lu Xun's prestige that only knew how to show off her words. She secretly thought that she was too cautious.

"Chen Xian, what are you still doing?"

Lu Dai didn't want to talk too much nonsense with this playboy, but he happened to point to Chen Xian, so the captain of the guard almost froze, but had to take a step forward.

At this moment, Lu Xun also took a step forward, and shouted sharply: "The guards listen to the order, I am the son of Zhendong Wangfu, you... really want to follow Lu Dai to rebel?"

The sudden yelling caused many guards to change their expressions slightly.

If we only talk about the bloodline, in the palace, apart from the eldest son, only Lu Xun's bloodline is the most direct relative.

Firstly, Lu Dai's mother was only the third lady, and secondly, he did not actually have the Lu family's blood flowing through him, but because of the prestige of being in charge for many years, no one dared to disobey him.

"Second Young Master's big hat is too casual, isn't it? General Dongqi just wants to enter the palace to see the situation of the prince, so why is it a rebellion?"

At this moment, Yan Ruoxia had no choice but to speak. Rebellion can be done, but it cannot be said.

From the beginning to the end, they were all under the guise of treating the prince's illness, which can be said to be justified.

"So, only the father can order you?"

Lu Xun's face was ashen, and when he said this, Cao Song's face changed again and again, but Lu Dai's mother and son did not hear the meaning of the other party's words.

"That's right, if the father can say something, then we will naturally not step into the royal palace again!"

A bright light flashed in Lu Dai's eyes, and the words he said immediately made Yan Ruoxia, who was not far away, frowned. She always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't grasp it for a while.

"Okay, then let the father speak a word!"

It seemed that Lu Xun was so excited by Lu Dai that he couldn't help it. At this moment, he shouted loudly, not only to the guards outside the palace, but also to King Zhendong in the palace.

Hearing Lu Xun's loud voice, Lu Dai's heart skipped a beat, and then the palace became quiet for an instant, and everyone was listening, wanting to hear that familiar voice.

For some reason, Yan Ruoxia suddenly felt a little uneasy at this moment. If the voice of King Zhendong really came out of the palace, how would they proceed with the next move?
Could it be that after preparing for such a long time, is it necessary to die down like this?
Fortunately, after a short period of silence, there was no sound from the palace after all, so that the seriousness on Lu Dai's face gradually disappeared, replaced by an undisguised sarcasm.

"Look, Lu Xun, don't delay any longer. Even Mr. Cao has nothing to do with his father's illness. How could he speak at this moment?"

At this time, Lu Dai has completely figured out Lu Xun's strategy of delaying the attack, but in his opinion, under today's situation, what's the use of delaying for a while?
"If you don't get out of the way again, don't blame the general for being rude!"

After thinking about this, Lu Dai felt that he was ashamed to be frightened by this brat just now. This time, he took a step forward, stretched out his hand, and moved towards Lu Xun's shoulder.

Although Lu Dai's true cultivation level is not included in the group of three perfect martial masters, in the eyes of everyone, it is not something that Lu Xun can afford.

As for whether the other party will be injured, Lu Dai naturally doesn't think about it.

"Cough cough!"

However, just when Lu Dai's fingers were about to touch Lu Xun's shoulder and turn him somersault, a coughing sound came from the palace without warning.

Just a coughing sound instantly froze Lu Dai's movements, and made everyone's expressions extremely exciting, except for a few people who knew the inside story.

"Is it the prince's voice?"

The side concubine Xu Fengyi seemed a little excited, maybe she was the one who didn't know the truth the most, and besides the concubine, she was the one who wholeheartedly wanted King Zhendong to get better.

The third lady, Yan Ruoxia's face turned blue and white, even with a thick layer of powder, she couldn't hide the fluctuating emotions in her heart, which was obviously the result she had never thought about.

"what happened?"

After a brief shock, Yan Ruoxia suddenly turned her gaze to Cao Song, with a trace of suspicion in her tone, which made Cao Song know what she was thinking in an instant.

"This is absolutely impossible!"

Cao Song also lowered his voice, which gave Yan Ruoxia a reassurance, and then her thoughts turned, and she suddenly seemed to understand the truth of the matter.

"If it is impossible for the prince to wake up, then there is probably only one explanation!"

Yan Ruoxia and Cao Song looked at each other, and then there was a glimmer of light in their eyes, as if they were both saying an answer, that is: the King Zhendong who spoke is a fake!

It was quiet outside the palace. Everyone was startled by the coughing sound. Lu Dai even turned around and looked at the third lady, as if he couldn't make up his mind.

"My king is fine, let's go!"

In the quiet atmosphere, another voice finally came from the palace of the king. This time, everyone could hear it quite clearly. It was the King Zhendong they were familiar with.

"Lu Dai, did you hear that? Your father has spoken, why don't you hurry up?"

To say that the one who reacted the fastest was the second son, Lu Xun. At this moment, he triumphantly pushed away Lu Dai's right hand that was raised beside his shoulder, and the words he said were even less polite.

"Mother?"

For a moment, Lu Dai didn't have the mind to care about Lu Xun's provocation, his mind was full of the two consecutive voices just now.

That voice was exactly the same as the one in his impression, except for a little lack of breath.

At this moment, Lu Dai was really undecided, he never thought of such a result anyway.

Didn't Cao Song swear before that King Zhendong would never wake up?

Why did King Zhendong actually speak at such a critical moment?
At this moment, Lu Dai undoubtedly hated even Cao Song. He didn't think that Cao Song would betray him, but he just felt that the medical skills of this dignified fourth-rank doctor were too unreliable, right?
"Hehe, the second son is really good. I don't know where did you find this guy whose voice is so similar to the prince's?"

Under Lu Dai's questioning gaze, Yan Ruoxia pondered for a moment, then a smile appeared on her face, and the words she said made everyone tremble.
