Yes.
Examining closely, from the twenty-fourth year of Longqing's reign, when the master and the apprentice escaped Dayu County together, it had been exactly seventeen years until the present third year of Shenwu.
During these seventeen years, Zhou Qing and he have been master and student in name, but they are like father and son in essence.
The most critical period of Zhou Qing's youth was largely shaped under the tutelage of Lu Yuan.
It can be said that he truly watched his apprentice grow up, like a caring father.
The deep bond between the two is incomparable to anyone else's, except for Sun Siwen's.
Even Lan Caier, who has borne him two children, or the eldest son Lu He, or even the newly named second son Lu Hao, they can't compare to him.
The nature of human emotions is indeed unreasonable.
Even if you are my flesh and blood, my wife, if you can't measure up, you simply can't.
