Chapter 45 It’s none of my business
  But after calming down, he still listened carefully, for fear of missing some details. His sister was worried about him all day long, so he couldn't let her worry about him anymore.

[He was just a little frightened, but the third brother could no longer stay in the Yulin Guards, nor could he use force anymore. He originally thought that the prince would give more help to the general's mansion, but later when Sheng Jingxuan added insult to injury to the third brother, he Just watching, not daring to say a word! 】

[The more I think about it, the angrier I get. Can’t Third Brother not go? It is simply infuriating to have to protect that good-for-nothing prince. 】

[The General's Mansion was completely lost and he said that when the General's Mansion was at its lowest, he didn't even think of lending a helping hand once! 】

But Lu Youyou didn't know that the people around her could hear her thoughts, so she could only worry in her heart. But Lu Wushuang had already made up his mind. Even if he saw that the prince was in danger, he would never go to help. .

But seeing his sister so worried, he still wanted to comfort her.

"But this time, the emperor specifically instructed me to follow him every step of the way. I should not enter the hunting grounds."

【Yes! The emperor was assassinated last time by his third brother. He must have trusted him very much. If the third brother did not leave the emperor and enter the paddock, then even if the prince was injured, it would have nothing to do with us! 】

After Lu Youyou heard this, she really felt a lot more relaxed, but after all, things haven't happened yet, and no one can tell what changes will happen. It's always good to be more vigilant.

After dinner, Lu Wushuang was able to go back to his room to rest for a while, and Lu Jingyuan also took Lin Yuyan back to the room.

The whole family heard what Lu Youyou said today. Although Lu Wushuang would definitely be on guard, he, as a father, was still worried.

"No wonder Youyou was so opposed to us joining the prince's camp before. It turns out that's why."

Lu Jingyuan also sighed helplessly. After all, he actually watched the prince grow up.

"This child's character is not bad, but he wants too much, and his abilities cannot keep up..."

Lin Yuyan knew that Lu Jingyuan was soft-hearted, but she was still very sober. As soon as she heard Lu Jingyuan's words, she knew that he might have other ideas.

"Are you trying to help him?"

After a long while, Lu Jingyuan nodded.

"Knowing that his life is in danger, do I really want to stand by and watch?"

"Do you know your current identity? You are the general who protects the country, and you still hold the military talisman in your hand. If the emperor discovers that you and others appear around the royal hunting grounds, do you know what the consequences will be? "

Sometimes, Lu Jingyuan's mind is not as clear as Lin Yuyan's, and he needs her to wake him up.

"This is his own destiny. Even if there is no Wushuang to protect him, it does not mean that he will die. This is a royal hunt. The surrounding area must be cleared. How can he aim easily when he is far away?"

"What's more, do you think the emperor doesn't know about the prince's little actions recently?"

Lin Yuyan often hangs out among the wives of various wealthy families, so she naturally knows some gossip. The emperor has already placed spies around important ministers, and the same goes for the prince.

"You mean, if I save the prince at this juncture..."

Lu Jingyuan slowly realized the seriousness of this matter after receiving advice from his own ancients. Although he was a little soft-hearted, in order to protect his family, he decided to let things happen. The weather was indeed excellent on the day of autumn hunting, and Lu Wushuang followed the emperor honestly and closely.

As expected, the prince showed off his recently improved equestrian skills in the paddock, and in order to get the upper hand, he rushed into the distant woods first, in order to catch more prey and shine in front of the emperor.

But Lu Wushuang kept holding his breath, not daring to relax, and vigilantly paying attention to the surrounding disturbances. It wasn't until the boy next to the prince came to report that Lu Wushuang breathed a sigh of relief.

Judging from the blood stains on his body, the prince was probably seriously injured.

"Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince has been assassinated..."

Lu Wushuang watched the emperor hurriedly call the imperial doctor to come for treatment, but she didn't see any concern for his son on his face, and he was in a daze again.

If he was usually injured, his father would not say anything, but he could not hide his concerned eyes, but now...

Lu Wushuang also began to think about what Lu Youyou said before, that the prince was just used by the emperor as a shield for the seventh prince. Could it be that the royal family was really ruthless, and his son was seriously injured, yet he was still so indifferent.

The prince's condition was not very good. When he was about to set up his bow and shoot, an arrow shot from a distance happened to penetrate the forearm of his right hand and broke several tendons. Even if he was treated in time, it would be difficult to recover. It's what it used to be.

Lu Wushuang also practiced martial arts since childhood. Seeing the wounds on the prince being bandaged, he knew very well that the prince would no longer have the strength to lift heavy objects in the future.
  But at the same time, I was also glad in my heart that the person who was crippled this time was not me.

The news soon spread out of the palace, and Lu Jingyuan was relieved to hear that the prince was only injured and not life-threatening.

But although the prince was not as favored by the emperor as Sheng Jingxuan, he was still a prince after all. The emperor ordered all the doctors in the capital to come for diagnosis and treatment, but no doctor gave detailed results. He could only wait and see how the situation would recover slowly.

Seeing Lu Wushuang return to the general's mansion intact, Lin Yuyan's heart was relieved.

"Wushuang, are you... okay today?"

The man came back fine, but the expression on his face was obviously very strange. Lin Yuyan did not dare to ask more questions, so she could only let him go back to the house first.

Although he was in a bad mood, Lu Wushuang still forced a smile and said, "I'm fine. I stayed with the emperor to protect him all day today. When the prince was assassinated, I kept a distance from him."

Lu Jingyuan did not come forward to protect him, and Lu Wushuang did not block the assassination for the prince. Naturally, this matter had nothing to do with them.

only……

Lu Wushuang still felt a little guilty. If he told the prince that someone would assassinate him today, would the prince still do this?
  Lin Yuyan knew her son best, and knew that the fact that he was righteous and failed to save others was really a difficult hurdle for him to overcome. Seeing that the light in Lu Wushuang's room was always on, she also hugged Lu Youyou Knocked on his door.

"Still thinking about what happened during the day?"

Lu Wushuang did nothing, just sat in front of his window, staring outside in a daze.
