"Father, you've gone mad! You... you are mad."
Lu Feifei's lifeless eyes once again rippled with emotion, her body trembling with fear.
Lu Bingxin laughed strangely, his scholarly face tinged with intense obsession: "Yes, I went mad long ago, from the moment His Majesty chose the Lu Family, I went mad."
Lu Congyun said excitedly, "Father, by doing this, the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion will become our mortal enemy. Aren't we supposed to become in-laws with them?"
He curled his lips into a strange smile, speaking confidently:
"Do you think I don't know this move will provoke the Gu Family, backfiring? Hehe... As long as the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion defies the imperial decree, and this label is placed on them, what if the news of Dingyuan Marquis's victory reaches the Capital City, balancing merits with faults? I'm doing this to help His Majesty, to preemptively strike at disloyal subjects, His Majesty, His Majesty will remember our Lu Family."
