Chapter 667 - Imperial Prince Jing's Daughter
"The younger generations will do well on their own! You ah! You worry too much!! Okay, when the time comes, I will bring the child to go on a blind date, okay? Alas, it's a sin to have too many children... oh right, our daughter will also be returning. She will be staying in the capital for a month. How about it? Are you happy?" Imperial Prince Jing mentioned his only daughter.
Princess Consort Jing was overjoyed by the news; she sighed and said, "In the past, we shouldn't have married our daughter to such a distant place. It takes over twenty days on the road for her to return to the capital. Isn't it a difficult journey?"
Zhu Junyang's older sister, who was the second oldest of the family, Zhu Junya , married Lu Nianhua, who was the eldest grandson of one of the founding fathers of the dynasty, Lu Changfeng. Lu Changfeng was well versed in literary and military strategy. He was also resourceful, and was known as 'the second Zhuge Liang '. In the past he followed the emperor emeritus to seize power from the old dynasty. With his brains and the emperor emeritus's brawn, the two of them swept everything before them and built the Great Ming Dynasty. If the emperor emeritus was the commanding officer in a modern era army, then Lu Changfeng was equivalent to the military chief of staff who assisted the commanding officer. The two people recognized and appreciated each other's talent and forged an extraordinary friendship.
After the emperor emeritus abdicated from the throne, Lu Changfeng retired to his ancestral home to live in seclusion. The children of the Lu Family were equally proficient in literacy and military affairs. They were said to be extremely talented people. However, Lu Changfeng understood the meaning behind the saying 'water surges only to overflow' . He set up a family rule, stating that no one from the Lu Family can take up an official post within the next three generations. The Lu Family completely withdrew themselves from the political arena.
The Lu Family's ancestral hometown was located in between the Guangdong and Guangxi districts. After he retired from his government post, Lu Changfeng opened a private school in his hometown. The school was originally dedicated to teaching the children of the Lu Family, but the reputation of the school spread far and wide. As a result, the private school gradually developed into an academy. The reputation of the academy located between the Guangdong and Guangxi districts was comparable to Rongxuan Academy.
When the emperor emeritus was young, he once joked with Lu Changfeng that the two families should become in-laws in the future. Unfortunately, the children of the second generation from both families were all male, so the matter remained unsettled. Later on, when Lu Changfeng's eldest grandson, Lu Nianhua, was being harassed by a group of hooligans, Zhu Junyang's second sister appeared. She was someone who defended the weak against the strong, so she fought the hooligans, causing the hooligans to run off. A heroic woman rescued a beautiful man and thus, the two became acquainted.
There was a very funny reason why Lu Nianhua was being harassed by the hooligans, but, at the same time, it was extremely embarrassing. His appearance was a mixture of all the best traits from three generations of his family. He had a delicate appearance and was often mistaken for a very beautiful girl when he was still young.
When Lu Nianhua was rescued by Zhu Junya, he was only eleven years old, so he was still short. It didn't matter what he wore, because even though he was dressed in men's attire, his delicate and beautiful face turned all the women around him green with envy. He actually looked like a young naive little girl crossdressing as a man at first glance. At that time, Zhu Junya was twelve years old and she inherited her family's slender and tall figure. She was almost 1.65 meters tall. She had been practicing martial arts with her older and younger brothers at home, so she was more than capable of fighting against a group of hooligans.
