After bidding farewell to Zhou Wan and Guan Zhengyuan, Guan Youyou followed back to the Lu courtyard that she hadn't seen in a long time.

"Woof woof woof …" Hearing this familiar barking sound, the smile on his face unconsciously appeared.

… ….

Old Master Lu was being pushed by a servant and said from afar.

Guan Youyou hugged Little Nine, her smile like a flower. She said a little shyly, "No, Grandfather, I didn't. "Very good to me."

"Hahaha!" Grandfather loudly laughed, "My grandson's wife is too shy. It seems that you didn't put in too much effort?"

Pei Ming awkwardly looked at the crowd gathered around him. Although none of the servants would say anything, he still felt uncomfortable when they heard him say it in public.

"Alright, Grandfather, I have something to say to you. Let's go in." Pei Ming took the wheelchair from his servant and pushed the Old Master Lu as he continued to speak, "The wind is blowing strongly outside. Seriously, why aren't you resting in your room? What are you doing outside?"

"Oh, really? To tell me about your marriage in Spain without my consent. " Old Master Lu's eyes were spread all over the world, he naturally knew about this matter.

But still couldn't help but feel a little shy when he used this kind of tone to mock her.

"Grandfather, what are you talking about?" She bashfully placed Small Nine on top of Old Master Lu and pulled at his beard. Then, she immediately ran away and made a face at him and naughtily said: "Grandfather, I won't tell you anymore. I'm going to pack my stuff!"

With that, Guan Youyou ran back into the house.

"Hahaha." Old Master Lu looked at his back and laughed heartily.

He fondled the little Jiu who was lying on his lap and said gratifyingly to Pei Zi Yun, "Ming'er, my little grandson's daughter-in-law is still so happy …"

He made a long, meaningful note and motioned for Pei to push him into the back room.

… ….

When Pei Ming entered the study, he closed the door behind him. The waiter who had been following him all this time left the room on his own accord.

"Lordmaster, you must have heard about what happened." "I beg your pardon for taking the initiative in Spain."

"Hahaha, Ming'er, why do you think I don't support you?" Old Master Lu stroked his beard and said.

"I'm just worried." Pei Ming hesitated.

"Worried about your father?"

"Yes." Pei Ming nodded. His brows were tightly furrowed and filled with worry.

"It's okay, I'm here. I told him this was my intention." Old Master Lu paused for a moment before continuing, "He has no intention to refute my decision at this point in time."

"You …" He had not expected his grandfather to support him like this. After all, that was his ancestral treasure, and he had given it up just like that.

And at this time, Old Master Lu's smile became even more meaningful.

"Ming'er, your grandfather was once the Wagang Country's William II, but I gave up the throne for your grandmother. Do you think I care about these treasures?"

Pei Ming did not say anything and only looked at his grandfather, waiting for his next words.

"Besides, there's something more important than these funds." The Old Master Lu said as he shifted his gaze towards Lu Luoming's hand that was always in his pocket.

Pei Ming smiled. Sure enough, no matter what he did, it couldn't escape his grandfather's eyes.

He took out the exquisite key from his bag and handed it to Wilhelm II, his grandfather, the current head of the Lu family.

It was a pure gold key in the shape of a crown, inlaid with five colored gems. The entire key looked more like a scepter than a crown.

Old Master Lu held this key in his hand like a precious treasure and observed it carefully.

There were tears in his eyes.

"This key is the symbol of Wagang Country's royal power. These five colored diamonds symbolized the power of the five noble families. Do you see the hole in the middle? " The Old Master Lu raised the key in front of Pei Ming.

"Do you feel that the shape is familiar?"

Pei Ming's eyes lit up.

This shape was exactly fitting for the pink diamond on Guan Youyou's neck.

The diamond was decorated around the necklace, but he did not find the main diamond in the middle, which did not have the right to overlap with the hollow space in the middle of the key.

Thus …

"This is the symbol of the Wagang Country's royal authority. If the two of them are combined, we can gather the forces of the five great powers. "

It suddenly dawned on him that his grandfather would never blame him for giving his treasure to Spain. The key in his hand was much more valuable than those things.

"In the past, my brothers had done too many things that were detrimental to the Royal Family in order to fight for power. At that time, your great-grandfather had summoned the heads of the five great clans to forge this key. He made an agreement with them that only the person who possesses this key will be the one he truly believes to be the successor. "

"Later on, my brothers learned of the great battle between them for the key. For a time, innumerable casualties occurred within the Imperial Family, and a wave of bloody winds and rain arose … "

When Old Master Lu said till here, he could not bear to take in a breath of cold air.

After sighing with emotion for a while, he continued, "However, what they do not know is that this key must be intact in order to summon the five clans. As for the pink diamond in the middle of the key, your great-grandfather has long since passed it to me alone … "

The Old Master Lu told Pei Zi Ming about the battle that happened within the Wagang Country. His face was full of sadness.

"Then... "What about this?" When Pei Ming heard this, he took out the chip hidden in the pink diamond and handed it over to Old Master Lu.

"The heirs of the five clans, in order to avoid the conflicts among the Royal Clans, all left the Wagang Country. Take their money, soldiers, and live in seclusion all over the world. "The A.I. Chip is hiding their current location …"

Listening to Old Master Lu's explanation, Lu Yiming's expression turned even more serious. He said, "It's been so many years. I'm afraid that the Patriarch …"

His worry was normal. Even if the old man had pledged his loyalty to the Wagang Country, after so many years had passed, the old man who swore his allegiance to him was probably not many left alive. It was likely that their descendants would not follow the wishes of their predecessors.

"I believe them." Old Master Lu's expression became especially solemn, "Their children and grandchildren, have definitely always been strictly abiding by the teachings of their ancestors. This is the faith of the clan! "

The old tutor grew more and more agitated as he spoke. He was so scared that even a small Jiu Jiu cried out twice.

Honestly speaking, his grandfather had always been a gentle and kind character in his memories of Pei Zi Ming. This was the first time he saw him so emotional. One could imagine how important this country was to him.

But...

This is not where Mr. Lu's ambition lies.

"Father has the right to know this as well." What Pu Zi Ming meant was that if he wanted to revive the Wagang Country, Lu Zhenhua was the most suitable candidate.

But who knew, when Master Lu heard this, his entire face darkened.

Pei Ming took a deep breath. It seemed that the conflict between his grandfather and father had not been resolved even after so many years.

… ….

"Pei Ming, I hope you understand that your father is not a good king. He is too similar to my brothers." Old Master Lu gnashed his teeth and said, "Too ruthless."

The Old Master Lu rarely called out Lu Yiming's full name, so he must be extremely serious.

Of course, Pei Ming understood the meaning of Old Master Lu's words. Ever since his father imprisoned his mother, the conflict between father and son had only intensified.

However, compared to Lu Zhenhua, he was not as famous. Even though Jason had instructed him before his death, he still hoped that his father would be the one to fulfill his dying wish.

After all, Lu Zhenhua yearned for power so much.

… ….

Old Master Lu had watched Lu Yunming grow up, so he naturally understood what he was thinking right now.

"Ming'er, I hope you will reconsider." Old Master Lu looked at Lu Lu Ming with sincere eyes, then handed the key in his hand over to Pei Zi Ming once again.

Pei Ming took the key and was about to refuse.

A hurried knock on the door interrupted him.

… ….

"Bastard!" Didn't I tell you that if there's no urgent matter, you can't disturb us privately! " Old Master Lu shouted angrily at the door.

It was very rare for him to be this angry at someone.

This scared the servant at the door and he immediately knelt down.

With a "Putong" sound, Old Master Lu helplessly shook his head.

He sighed and said to Pei, "Think about it."

With that, he rolled his wheelchair over to the door.

The door opened automatically.

… ….

At the door, a servant lay trembling on the floor.

"Speak, what's the matter?" Old Master Lu's tone slightly softened.

But the servant was still frightened, and his voice, with the trembling of his body, became intermittent.

"Then... That. Woman, she … She's making a ruckus again. "

"Sigh …" Old Master Lu took a deep breath and turned around to look at Pei Ming. "There's a woman who has been playing at the door with a child all these days asking for you."

Pei Ming's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Not everyone knows your character as well as I do. Do you know what the media think? " Old Master Lu joked.

"Grandfather, don't joke around. Thank you for helping me settle the matter with the media." Is the child she's bringing a seven or eight year old little girl? "

"Oh?" Old Master Lu's gaze became playful, he turned to look at Lu Lengming with interest, and said: "You planted this seven or eight years ago? You're not afraid of me knowing? "

Pei Ming smiled and said, "Oh, she knows."

With a single sentence, the Old Master Lu was rendered speechless.

Sigh, this grandson of his really had no sense of humor at all.

… ….

Pei Ming came to the entrance of the courtyard.

She saw that Guan Youyou was already at the door, facing a woman.

As expected, it was Wang Rinuan.

The Sharpshooter who died for him, Wang Xu's daughter.

The child that she was bringing was the little girl that they rescued from the trafficking village. Her name was Nan Nan.

… ….

Pei Ming walked over and pulled Guan Youyou, who didn't know what to do, behind him.

She didn't know how to explain to Wang Rinuan the fact that Wang Xu had already passed on.

"Benefactor!" When Wang Rinuan saw Pei Zi Ming, he pulled Nan Nan and knelt in front of him.

"Please, tell me where my father is!"

Her begging look made Guan Youyou immediately recall the scene where the father and daughter pair met. At that time, she was so emotionally moved.

Unexpectedly, the two of them were separated by heaven.

Yo Yo nose a pang of pain, threw himself into the arms of Yi Ming, moaning and crying.

Wang Rinuan suddenly had an ominous premonition as tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.

She was silent.

Her father had been called to the United States and had kept in touch with her until a few days before his departure.

But then, somehow, there was no news at all. Even the brothers who went with their father, there was no news at all.

A bad premonition forever shrouded Wang Rinuan as she cried and washed her face everyday.

From time to time, he would come to the Lu Manor to seek news, but he would always be informed that Pei Zi Ming was not around.

Now that she finally got the news that he had returned, she rushed over immediately.

She looked forward to see the figure of her father instead of seeing Guan Youyou cry.

… ….

"Dad, is he …?" Wang Rinuan's eyes were filled with tears, but she was unable to say any of the following words.

Pei Ming could not bear to see this, but still nodded his head.

After receiving a definite answer to his question, Wang Rinuan felt the world spinning around him.

How could she accept this?

Her vision turned dark and her body tilted. She fainted and fell towards one side.

"Mom!" Nan Nan cried from the side.
