Why is it different this year?

Lu Zheng brought the group of people back to his own courtyard.

It was a little bigger than third aunt Gu's yard. There were five rooms and they were clean and tidy.

Just as Gu en had arranged, Xue Qianyu, Lu Zheng, and Gu en were in one room, the Emperor was in another, eunuch Fu and his four guards were in another room, Empress Jiang was in another room, and Empress Jiang was in another room with a nanny and a Palace maid.

Gu en rarely traveled by car. Lu Zheng asked him to wash his face and feet while he curled up in the innermost corner of the bed and fell asleep.

Lu Zheng changed his clothes and slept in the middle.

After Xue Qianyu washed up, he sat on the bed. "Why did you make Lu Zheng disappear? Was he planning to cut off all ties with the Lu family? Do you know how sad sister Xue was crying?"

"You're already 16," Lu Zheng sneered,"how can you be fooled by her? It seems that she can deceive everyone in the family. No one doesn't believe her!"
