The imperial palace.
Lu Yaozhu was held back by the crown Prince as soon court ended, like other officials heard about Lu Yaozhu's marriage. Lu Yaozhu had been as elusive as ever, he hadn't been able to get hold of him until now. Zhongshan Ling pulled Lu Yaozhu into an unoccupied palace close to the court room to avoid getting overheard.
He had left the palace as soon as the games ended and were present when Lu Yaozhu and Su Liya were found in a compromising condition. He had been shocked when his guard reported the situation to him.
Zhongshan Ling gave his guard a sign to watch the door while they chatted. "I heard about what happened.... father Emperor is making a big move. How are you?"
Lu Yaozhu grinned and replied "good, I am getting married. It is happy news, my mother has been worried about my marriage for a while. She can finally relax, I am just a lowly general. Don't forget to give me a big wedding gift".
