Chapter 119: Saying It's Tight
Lu Zhi took a deep breath: "You say, I'll listen." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
Seeing that she was indeed ready to listen, Duan Chen said slowly: "Because of you, I have always been careful about the Lu Mansion, and I already knew about that woman as soon as she appeared. Originally, like you, I thought that Young Master Lu was just a novelty, but after I sent someone to investigate, I found that things were far more than that. β
He paused and asked in a low voice, "Young Master Lu, when he met bandits and how to survive, he must have told your mother about it, right?" β
Lu Zhi didn't think about it, so she nodded: "I have heard my mother tell me about this countless times, and my mother only told my mother what happened to me after I saved my father. β
Duan Chen frowned: "Then according to your father's words, those bandits killed his entire family, and he was left alone to torture him, right?" β
Lu Zhi nodded: "That's right." β
"Not really." Duan Chen said coldly: "Your father has been deceiving Mrs. Wu from beginning to end, those bandits wanted to kill people back then, but your father ......"
Speaking of this, Duan Chen glanced at Lu Zhi and immediately changed his title: "But Young Master Lu took the initiative to dedicate his sister to the leader of the bandits, and volunteered to do things for those bandits, so he saved his life!" β
"What?!" Lu Zhi couldn't believe his ears, his father was so shameless! In order to survive, he sacrificed his own sister, and voluntarily fell into the grass to be a coward, and was in the company of those enemies who killed his father?!
What about the integrity of his scholars?! What about the dignity of being a human being?! What about the way of the human wheel of being a child?!
Lu Zhi's chest rose and fell violently, her hands clenched into fists at her sides, and her arms were still trembling slightly from the great anger.
Such a person is simply unworthy of a human being!
No, the bird still knows how to knot the grass ring, and he is simply not as good as a beast!
Just when Lu Zhiqi was furious, a warm palm, with the power to soothe people's hearts, gently grasped her hand and wrapped her fist clenched with anger.
Lu Zhi didn't move away, she needed this power to warm her at this moment.
Duan Chen said softly: "The past is also in the past, don't punish yourself for his mistakes." β
Lu Zhi closed her eyes and took a deep breath: "What happened later?" β
Duan Chen sighed lightly: "Eight years ago, I sent you to Jiangnan in the name of suppressing bandits, although this is just a name, I still suppressed this bandit." And among the bandits I suppressed, there was the group of bandits who killed the Lu family back then. After those bandits were exterminated, the women, children and old people in the bandit village were dismissed, and Lu Shaofu's sister was also freed. β
Lu Zhi opened her eyes and said coldly: "She is the woman who is hiding in the other courtyard now!" β
Now she doesn't even want to call her father, and only uses that person instead.
Duan Chen understood her mood and didn't persuade her, just nodded and said: "Exactly, that woman somehow arrived in the capital a year ago, and somehow recognized Young Master Lu, Young Master Lu felt ashamed, so he offered her delicious food and drink, but the woman's appetite was getting bigger and bigger. β
"He's not guilty, he's ghost!" Lu Zhi said angrily: "Once the truth of the year comes out, don't say that the black gauze hat on his head is difficult to protect, even this capital will definitely have no place for him!" β
Hearing her voice and hearing her words, Duan Chen sighed lightly, shook her hand, and said softly: "I know that you are very angry now, but it doesn't help to be angry, paper can't contain fire after all, you should think about what the consequences will be if this matter is exposed, should you make some preparations in advance." β
Hearing his words, Lu Zhi suddenly calmed down, yes, this Lu Mansion is not that person's alone, she and that person are both prosperous and lossy.
She doesn't care, there is no nostalgia in this capital, but other people in the house may not.
Lu Zhi tilted her head slightly, saw Duan Chen's gentle gaze, and sighed in her heart, well, she also has something to be nostalgic for in the capital.
Lu Zhi, who calmed down, silently loosened her clenched fists, but this loosening, the palm that originally wrapped her fist was particularly obvious, she moved slightly uncomfortably, but the palm was changed to a hold, holding her fingers firmly in the palm of her hand.
Lu Zhi blushed slightly, coughed lightly, and said, "You...... You let me go first. β
"Don't let go." Duan Chen looked at her deeply and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid that if I let go, you will forget my existence and want to run back to Jiangnan." β
His voice was very low, a little lost and seemed to be a little aggrieved, Lu Zhi never thought that such words would come out of his mouth, let alone that he knew her so well, and even understood her fleeting thoughts.
Lu Zhi turned her eyes to look at him and replied in a low voice, "No." β
Hearing this, Duan Chen slowly let go of her hand and asked softly, "What are you going to do?" β
Lu Zhi frowned and pondered for a long time, until she had a rough calculation in her heart, and then she spoke: "That woman's identity cannot be revealed for the time being. The matter of my eldest brother Lu Heng and Sister Fu Yao was finally settled, and if this matter was exposed, it would definitely not happen. β
"The eldest brother will participate in the autumn festival this year, followed by the spring festival next year, according to his talent, although he will not come out on top, but he will definitely be on the list. The eldest brother has already arranged that after Chunyu is on the list, he will marry Sister Fu, and then he will ask the prince to be a local official and stay away from the capital. β
"And my second brother, his marriage has not yet been settled, and he has never been famous, once this matter is exposed, his life will be ruined."
"It's not difficult." Duan Chen opened his mouth and said: "Your second brother can also go to the examination to gain fame and take the path of your eldest brother, if he has a firm temperament, he can also stay in the capital like this, as long as he has the ability, as long as Duan Yiqi is with him, it will be fine to survive the past few years." β
Lu Zhi thought for a while and sighed: "I'm afraid, I'm afraid, before he has the ability, this matter will be exposed!" β
After that, she turned her eyes to look at Duan Chen, frowned and said: "There is also a matter of you and me, if this matter is exposed, I will not be the daughter of a second-grade master, and at that time, my reputation will be damaged because of that person, let alone be your concubine, even if you are a concubine, you will also climb high." β
Hearing this, Duan Chen raised the corners of his lips and smiled lowly, he smiled very happily, looking at Lu Zhi's eyes also flashing, the whole person was obviously very happy.
Lu Zhi was a little annoyed: "I'm talking to you about it!" β
"Okay, that's right." Duan Chen coughed lightly to hide his smile, looked at Lu Zhi and said, "Don't worry, this matter can't be exposed for a year and a half, if you want, I can also let it never be exposed." β
