Sheng, who was rumored to be especially cherished by the Emperor, always referred to herself as a mere maid in front of His Majesty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was never really the esteemed Noble Consort Sheng, just a maid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disguised as Yue Rujing, Lun Yu entered the palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yue Rujing sought an audience with the eldest Prince, who had just returned to the palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given the past identities and relationship between the eldest Prince and Yue Rujing, naturally, no one stopped him and he was directly led into Jin Zijin’s residence in Zhongcui Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lun Yu, properly following behind a eunuch, also gave his respects to Jin Zijin in a very proper manner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Zijin frowned and commanded all the palace attendants to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood up and looked at him, speaking indifferently, “Lun Yu?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lun Yu instantly felt it was not interesting, remarking, “You recognized me so quickly?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Has my disguise technique deteriorated?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Zijin said, “Ajing and I grew up together from childhood, I am very familiar with every move he makes, not rigid and proper like you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this world, the only ones capable of disguising themselves to the point where even I cannot recognize them are you, Lun Yu, and your mother Lun Tong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, your mother Lun Tong is not in Zhuzhao Country, so it must be you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lun Yu joked with a strained laugh, “Does that mean my disguise technique is too good for you to see through?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alright, since you recognized me, there’s no point in pretending anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let me directly discuss the important matter.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm, sit down!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Zijin generously invited him to sit, and Lun Yu, not feeling reserved—they had known each other for over twenty years and had known each other since childhood—sat down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I recently have been seriously pursued by your father to the point where I had nowhere to hide, so I mingled into the Lin Residence and became a maid, a maid beside your young lady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said she hasn’t seen you for a long time and misses you a lot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t come herself, so she sent me to check on you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Zijin: “…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, he earnestly observed Jin Zijin, commenting, “Seeing you with a glowing face, gaining some weight, it seems life has been good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alright, I’ve seen enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll go back and report to your young lady.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He got up and dusted his clothes but then heard a long-drawn eunuch’s voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Emperor arrives…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lun Yu stumbled, hurriedly steadying himself against the back of a chair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, neither staying nor leaving, he froze in place, signaling with his eyes for Jin Zijin to think of a solution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Zijin only gave him a look that said he was on his own and then got up to welcome the Emperor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Imperial Father!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rise!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon entering Zhongcui Palace and seeing the uneasy Yue Rujing, the Emperor paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah Jing, you are also here by coincidence?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lun Yu said, “Looking for my senior brother, there’s a bit of a matter.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm.” The Emperor nodded slightly and asked, “Have there been any updates from the Heavenly Master recently?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not yet…” Lun Yu glanced toward Jin Zijin before replying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Emperor’s expression grew serious, feeling that this Yue Rujing was very odd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why would Yue Rujing speak so uneasily?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if he had done something wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smiled a bit and instructed Eunuch Wan Decheng, “Wan Decheng, take the Princely Heir to the side hall to rest first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I have important matters to discuss with the eldest Prince.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lun Yu hastily said, “Your Majesty, there’s no need; I—have finished what I needed to say, and I’ll be returning to Sanqing Temple now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Emperor signaled for Wan Decheng to stop him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having served by the Emperor’s side for many years, Wan Decheng naturally understood what that look from the Emperor meant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the Emperor wanted to hold him back, how could he possibly let him escape?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then said, “Princely Heir, please stay, the plum blossoms ahead have bloomed beautifully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This old servant will take you to enjoy the flowers.”\u003C\u002Fp>",698,"2026-06-06T06:55:01.400Z",1,"novelbin.me","919e42785ba14f661eae0c5f92326faa4cb780ab0c6c3167623d281aea996a0b","the-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-chapter-945","the-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-chapter-943",1812,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-challenge-of-a-farmhouse-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
