Just as Empress Sun was praying in her heart.
Lu Yuan opened his mouth again and said,
" I, Lu Yuan, swear today that I didn't know that this group of dancers were assassins. If I lied, I will make Consort Dowager blind..."
Lu Yuan's voice was slow, and he had a righteous and awe-inspiring look on his face.
Even though Empress Sun felt extremely disgusted when she heard this, she was still in a daze.
However, he was also relieved.
However, the matter did not end like this. Before Lu Yuan could finish speaking, Liu Yikang interrupted him once again.
"Lu Hujun, what are you so anxious about? This king hasn't finished speaking!”
Hearing Liu Yikang's words, Lu Yuan could only stop and ask,
"Your Highness, do you have any other requests?"
Lu Yuan's voice carried a trace of anger, but he didn't flare up.
At this moment, he only hoped that this matter would be quickly put to rest. He did not want to cause any more trouble.
"Kang Er, what else do you want to do?”
Seeing Liu Yikang interrupt Lu Yuan once again, the surrounding people were naturally filled with doubts.
At this moment, Sun Taifei asked again,
Liu Yikang still smiled faintly.
He said with a playful smile.
" Mother, I won't do anything. However, since Protector Lu is swearing, how can he only bring you along? If he really colluded with the assassin and is determined to stake everything, won't this oath harm you? So, after thinking about it, I think it's better not to swear in your name. Let's change it to Old Master Lu…"
Liu Yikang's voice was slow, as if he was doing this for the good of Consort Sun.
Hearing what Liu Yikang said.
Consort Sun naturally had no objections.
After all, this was also a sign that Liu Yikang cared about her.
Therefore, he immediately asked Lu Yandi,
"Lord Lu, are you willing to vouch for Lu Yuan?”
Lu Yandi naturally agreed when he heard what Consort Sun asked.
However, Lu Yuan's face turned ashen.
It was only because he did not care about Consort Sun's life or death, but Lu Yandi was his biological father!
Although Lu Yuan usually looked down on this father, he was still a little depressed.
However, he admired her from the bottom of his heart.
Because Lu Yuan was clear that if his father didn't establish a relationship with him.
He would not have been able to reach his current high position.
The others might not have noticed Lu Yuan's reaction.
However, Liu Yikang saw everything.
Therefore, seeing Lu Yuan in a daze, Liu Yikang immediately urged him.
"Lu Hujun, why aren't you starting?"
Liu Yikang had a mocking look on his face. Lu Yuan felt especially humiliated when he saw this.
He had been tricked!
And he walked into Liu Yikang's trap step by step.
He was toyed with in the palm of his hand.
At this moment, Lu Yuan finally couldn't help but say angrily,
" Prince Pengcheng, aren't you being too overbearing? Lu Yuan has a clear conscience. If you don't believe me, feel free to get someone to investigate…Please forgive Lu Yuan for not agreeing to this request!”
Lu Yuan's attitude was exceptionally unyielding. Between saving his life and his father, he ultimately chose kinship.
However, after hearing Lu Yuan's reply.
However, Liu Yikang didn't show any signs of disappointment.
The smile on his face grew even wider.
It was because from the moment Lu Yuan fell into the trap.
Lu Yuan already had no way out.
The other party thought that this strong performance could get them out of their predicament.
Little did he know that he had fallen into another trap.
Therefore, before everyone could recover from their shock, Lu Yuan had just finished speaking.
Liu Yikang was already clapping.
At the same time, he said again,
" Protector Lu is indeed a filial son. Hearing that he swore on his father's name, he didn't hesitate to let me investigate and prove his innocence. It's just a pity that Consort Dowager trusted me. Fortunately, I was alert and repented in time. I didn't let Consort Dowager take the risk and prevented Consort Dowager from experiencing an ugly curse…"
Liu Yikang looked impressed, but his words were filled with killing intent.
Not to mention Lu Yuan, even the expressions of the surrounding people changed.。
Especially Consort Sun, whose face was filled with hostility.
It was because Liu Yikang's words seemed to be unintentional, but in fact, every word was a gem.
Lu Yuan was a filial son. When he heard that he swore on his father's name, he immediately rebuked Liu Yikang in anger.
What about just now?
When he used himself to swear, Lu Yuan agreed to it without hesitation!
How could Imperial Consort Sun not be angry at this moment?
"Lu Yuan, what do you mean by this?”
Consort Sun shouted at Lu Yuan, her tone filled with coldness.
Anyone could tell that Empress Sun was angry.
Lu Yuan's face was pale, and his heart was in a state of panic.
How could he not understand that he was impulsive?
He had fallen into an even bigger trap.
Lu Yuan understood in his heart that if this matter couldn't be resolved perfectly today.
In the future, between him and Imperial Consort Sun.
There would definitely be a huge estrangement.
Consort Sun would no longer take care of the Lu family.
However, he could never curse his father.
Therefore, Lu Yuan didn't know what to do.
He could only choose to remain silent.
At the side, Lu Yuan's father, Lu Yandi, was also anxious.
Even he did not expect it.
It was just an assassination.
It had actually reached the point where the Lu family and Imperial Consort Sun had a grudge.
Therefore, Lu Yuan was silent.
Lu Yandi immediately said,
"Yuan-er, hurry up and swear according to His Highness 'wishes. Father believes in you…"
Lu Yandi's voice was firm because at this moment, he had already vaguely guessed the reason for Lu Yuan's silence.
These words were actually telling Lu Yuan.
Don't lose the trust of Empress Sun because of one person.
Give up the future of the entire Lu Clan!
