No matter how anxious Cao Cuo was, Zhao Guangyuan still took Chang Zhi and left the palace that day.
Today is Mid-Autumn, a day for family reunion, and he cannot leave Lin Zhaoxia to celebrate the festival alone. Moreover, he has had enough of living alone for so many years. He wants to have her for a long time, and they can live together as a family.
Lin Zhaoxia and Lu Shanchang closed the shop early, bought a lot of food and returned to their residence to prepare.
I was very happy to see their father and son coming as promised.
"Are you happy to see your grandparents?" Lin Zhaoxia hugged Chang Zhi and rubbed her son's little face. Even with the smile on his face, she could tell that he was very happy at the Lin family.
"Happy! Mom, I can't bear to come back. Dongxue cried again, and she cried every time." Even though she said she was disgusted, she still felt a little sad when she thought about Dongxue in her heart.
We are all a family, why can't we live together?
"Really, Dongxue is crying again? Then it will be good to go back to see them more often from now on."
"Yes. Mom, grandpa and grandma took a video for you."
"Okay. Come take a look, mother." The mother and son entered the house.
Zhao Guangyuan and Lu Shanchang also started chatting. When it came to the news in the capital, the two cousins fell silent.
"How do you want to do it?"
"I want to see how he does it."
"You still have some delusions about him." Lu Shanchang sarcastically said, that man has no heart, only power and desire.
"What are you looking forward to? That he still has a trace of father-son affection for you?"
Zhao Guangyuan was silent and pinched his fingertips, feeling a hint of pain.
"You hope that he still remembers you as his son, but you also hope that he doesn't remember you. In this way, you won't feel so guilty about what you will do in the future. Is that what you think?"
Zhao Guangyuan said nothing.
Lu Shanchang understood him and was very angry, "If you still care about the relationship between father and son, then we will part ways! My Lu family cannot die in vain!"
Seeing Lu Shan stood up in a hurry, Zhao Guangyuan hurriedly pulled him back, "Cousin, don't be angry yet."
Lu Shanchang brushed his hand away, but did not move away. He sat down on the side of the sofa angrily without looking at him.
Zhao Guangyuan was anxious to explain, "Cousin, I do think what you said, but I don't really have no ideas..."
They have been cousins for many years. Even though they have not seen each other again in these years, they still understand their respective personalities. Lu Shanchang guessed 70% to 80% of Zhao Guangyuan's thoughts.
Before the age of eighteen, Zhao Guangyuan's life was still characterized by a loving father and a filial son, so how could he expect that things would change overnight. Although he wished to kill him and replace him, as Lu Shanchang said, maybe he still had the last glimmer of hope in the man he called his father.
"I don't want to interfere with his decision this time, nor do I want to act secretly. First, I want to see his attitude, and second, I want to see the reaction of the noble ministers in the capital. I will return to the capital one day, and I always want to know Who can use it and who can’t.”
Zhao Guangyuan explained.
He chose the most difficult path to take. There were thorns all over the road ahead. If he was not careful, he would be covered in bruises and could lose his life at any time. He doesn't dare to gamble on people's hearts, nor does he want to gamble on people's hearts.
"I always want to know who can be used and who can be used." Zhao Guangyuan lowered his eyes and said this again.
Lu Shanchang took a deep look at him and sighed secretly.
"Guangyuan, if you are soft-hearted, you are not suitable to take that road. Why don't you fake your death and stay here peacefully, live with Xia Xia and Chang Zhi, be happy and worry-free, and don't have to think about redress or revenge? thing."
"I've already chosen my path."
"Now that you have chosen a path, you should go on without hesitation. You cannot do nothing and wait passively."
"Yes. I didn't wait passively..."
Inside the house, Changzhi withdrew his ears from the door and looked up at Lin Zhaoxia, "Mom?" There was worry in his eyes.
Lin Zhaoxia looked down at him. Her son's small face was full of childishness and confusion.
"Are you worried about your father?"
Chang Zhi nodded: "Dad and Uncle Chang had a fight."
"Have you grown enough to understand?"
Changzhi shook his head and nodded again, "Uncle Chang said that dad should fake his death and stay here and live with us. Mom, dad seems to disagree and said that he has chosen a path. Mom, what path is it?"
Lin Zhaoxia touched her son's head. Although she hoped that her son could be a happy child, live a step-by-step life like other children, and have a good childhood, his father was burdened with too much. You can’t know nothing and do nothing.
"Mom, let me find you some history books to read. They are full of pictures and texts. I will also find you some videos to watch." As for how much he can understand and how much he can absorb, it all depends on him.
"Okay." Changzhi nodded, with a serious expression, like a little adult.
Seeing that the living room became quiet, Lin Zhaoxia took Chang Zhi out and handed the ID card he had obtained to Zhao Guangyuan.
Zhao Guangyuan was stunned at first. After taking it, he looked at the identity that belonged to him in this world. The small picture was the proof of his existence in this far away place, and he couldn't help but feel excited.
"Is this an ID card?" He has an ID card. He is from China!
Lu Shanchang leaned over to take a closer look, feeling envious and sighing at the same time, "It's better than Daqi's household register. It's easy to carry, and you can tell the authenticity of the photos at a glance." It's really good.
"Uncle, even your eldest brother has it! Look!"
"Oh? It's even grown up. Uncle looked at it and thought, wow, it's really good."
Zhao Guangyuan heard the envy in Lu Shan's long words, and looked at Lin Zhaoxia, "When we have the opportunity, we will help my cousin get an identity certificate."
Lu Shanchang was not polite and said to Lin Zhaoxia: "Okay, then I'll trouble Xia Xia."
Lu Shanchang really wanted to be a member of the Hua Kingdom and never wanted to return to the sad place of Daqi. Everything is good here, so why go back? Here he could start his life over again.
Start his brilliant life again. Here he is just Lu Shanchang.
The four of us had a lively Mid-Autumn Festival family dinner together and had a great time.
After the meal, Lin Zhaoxia suggested taking a walk outside to enjoy the moon. Zhao Guangyuan and Lu Shanchang readily agreed, so the four of them went out together.
As National Day approaches, the streets are filled with national flags and red lanterns. Walking on the street, the lights are bright and peaceful. The two cousins looked up at the bright moon in the sky, thinking that today was also the middle of autumn in Daqi, "it must be the same full moon."
"Yes. There is only one moon in the sky."
The same full moon, but the world is so different.
"The country is peaceful and the people are safe, the people live and work in peace and contentment, the nation is cohesive, and the people care about the country. This is a paradise." Lu Shanchang and Zhao Guangyuan expressed emotion.
"Guangyuan, can I one day see such peace and prosperity in Daqi?"
"Yes. There will be a day." Zhao Guangyuan looked at the full moon with a distant look.
