Chapter 44: Regret for Life

Lu Zhiyao's grim tone, the frightened minion naturally nodded again and again. Lu Zhiyao patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction, just waiting for Xuanyue to bring Lu Yuanzheng to him.

Lu Yuanzheng was woken up from his sleep by Wanyue knocking on the door, and of course, Ye Lianrong at the same time. The two looked at Wanyue in a daze and said nervously, "The eldest lady has something to find the master." Ye Lianrong was angry, and scolded as soon as she opened her mouth.

"What Miss? You don't even look at when this is, do you die? The lord has to go to court tomorrow morning, you hurry up and get out of the court for me! ”

Wanyue ignored Ye Lianrong's words, looked directly at the landing expedition, and said again: "Master, it is really a very important matter. Miss said that if you don't go, you will regret it for the rest of your life. ”

Xuan Yue had already said this, so that Lu Yuanzheng could no longer ignore her. Lu Yuanzheng sat up and paused, looked at Wanyue with a gloomy face, and asked, "What can't be said here?" ”

"Well, it can't be here. Because ......" Wanyue hesitated for a moment, and finally boldly said Lu Zhiyao's words. "Because the young lady specially instructed it, this matter cannot be heard by the second lady."

Ye Lianrong was suddenly sobered up by Wanyue's words, and looked at Wanyue with raised eyebrows and glaring, Ye Lianrong didn't dare to scold anything too ugly because of Lu Yuanzheng's presence. But at least to prevent Lu Yuanzheng from going to see Lu Zhiyao, it still has to be done. It's so late that Lu Zhiyao is looking for Lu Yuanzheng, what good thing can he do?

"Master, you better rest. If there is really something big, I will come to see you by myself, how can I send a little girl? ”

Lu Yuanzheng sat there for a moment, pondering for a moment before slowly moving up and standing up. Casually draped in a robe, Lu Yuanzheng looked back at Ye Lianrong and said, "I'll go and see, you can sleep first." ”

After speaking, Lu Yuanzheng followed Wanyue away. How could Ye Lianrong sleep so obediently? Following the two of them uneasily, Ye Lianrong also sneakily walked towards Lu Zhiyao's courtyard.

As soon as Lu Yuanzheng walked into Lu Zhiyao's room, he was dumbfounded. Several bound men were lying on the ground crookedly. And Lu Zhiyao was waiting for him, sitting at the table.

"Dad, you're here." When Lu Zhiyao saw Lu Yuanzheng, he didn't immediately stand up to meet him. "Wanyue, you go to the door and keep guard."

Wanyue walked out of the room, and Lu Zhiyao walked to Lu Yuanzheng, who was shocked. "Dad, don't you want to ask, who are they?"

Lu Yuanzheng slowly turned his head and followed Lu Zhiyao's words and asked, "Who are they?" ”

Lu Zhiyao sneered and replied, "They are the ones who are going to dig my mother's grave tonight." Do you want to ask them who told them to do this? ”

Lu Zhiyao's two words made Lu Yuanzheng's eyes flash, and his mind went blank. The person who dug Yang Xinyuan's grave?!

Lu Yuanzheng slowed down for a moment and immediately walked over. Looking at the frightened expressions on the faces of those people, Lu Yuanzheng casually ordered someone, took out the contents of his mouth, and asked, "What's the matter?" Make it clear to me! ”

The one Lu Yuanzheng was looking for was not the one that Lu Zhiyao threatened just now. But he also saw what Lu Zhiyao had done, and heard the conversation between Lu Zhiyao and that person.

The man squeaked and told the truth, and when Lu Yuanzheng heard him say that it was Ye Shengnan who sent them to dig the grave, he only felt that it was dark in front of him, and his body shook immediately.

"Dad, you have to hold on." Lu Zhiyao walked to Lu Yuanzheng's side and held his body. "There's a truth that will surprise you even more."

Not long after Lu Yuanzheng arrived in Lu Zhiyao's room, Lan Ruoya sent Ye Shengnan over. Lan Ruoya said hello to Lu Yuanzheng and left, and as soon as Lu Yuanzheng saw Lan Ruoyan, he guessed something in his heart.

Ye Shengnan had already changed his clothes, and after seeing Lu Yuanzheng and Lu Zhiyao, Ye Shengnan knew that something was wrong. For his brother-in-law, Ye Shengnan was afraid of him.

"Dad, didn't I ask you before, did you doubt my mother's death? At that time, you swore to warn me not to suspect Erniang. But now? Do you still want to say that? ”

Lu Zhiyao's attitude was a little aggressive, but the reason why she was so angry, Lu Yuanzheng could also understand. Lu Yuanzheng still couldn't believe the truth of the matter, he looked at Ye Shengnan and silently asked him to explain to himself.

As soon as Ye Shengnan looked at him on the land expedition, he began to defend himself. "What, it's all here, you've all misunderstood, misunderstood! Actually, I went to the cemetery tonight to do something else, and I accidentally read the wrong one, so I dug up the wrong one. ”

"What are you doing at the graveyard so late?" Lu Yuanzheng didn't believe his words and asked.

"Don't I owe someone some money? You have to help people, don't you. Brother-in-law, you see, we are all a family, and it's not good to be so stiff. ”

"Why is what my uncle said completely different from what the people under your command said?" Lu Zhiyao picked the right time and said: "They have all recruited just now, saying that you asked them to dig the grave, dig my mother's grave." After digging up the coffin, you took two special glances at my mother's bones, and then ordered them to dig up the coffin from the grave next to it, and replace the two bones inside. Uncle, can you explain why you did this? If the people from the Yamen hadn't appeared, you'd have succeeded a long time ago, right? ”

Lu Zhiyao's two uncle's screams made Ye Shengnan want to slap her twice. Ye Shengnan pulled the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, looked at the useless dog minions, and then looked at Lu Yuanzheng to continue to quibble. "I said it all, it's a mistake! How can I do the damage of digging up my own family's grave? No way! Brother-in-law, you have to trust me, I really didn't mean to. ”

"Well, since my uncle doesn't admit it, I won't mention it." Lu Zhiyao smiled coldly and looked at Lu Yuanzheng. "Dad, you can blame your daughter for not telling you the truth, but there is something I must say. I have asked the Eighth Prince to help me find out the truth about my mother's death. If you still don't believe me, you can find someone to open my mother's coffin for an autopsy now. Human life is a major matter, and my daughter does not dare to talk nonsense. I just want to get justice for my dead mother and brother, and find a reason to clear my bad reputation for so many years. ”

This matter involves the Eighth Prince, and it is not a trivial matter. Lu Yuanzheng looked at Lu Zhiyao like a stranger, he didn't expect this girl to do this unknowingly. When did she start planning? How did the Eighth Prince agree to help her?

Ye Lianrong followed Lu Yuanzheng all the way, she hid outside the courtyard, not daring to make a sound. I wanted to wait and see what happened before I made a decision. But when she saw Lan Ruoya appear with Ye Shengnan, Ye Lianrong's heart was completely panicked.

What are you doing bringing Ye Shengnan here so late?! Ye Lianrong thought of a possibility, a possibility that almost made her unable to breathe. Gritting her teeth, Ye Lianrong squatted on the ground, she felt that her nose was sore, and she suddenly wanted to cry, but she couldn't cry.

"Uncle, if you still don't plan to tell the truth, then I have no choice but to hand you over to Lan Ruoyan and let her judge you. When the time comes, don't blame me for being unkind. ”

Lu Zhiyao began to turn the conversation to Ye Shengnan again, so that Ye Shengnan immediately greeted her eight hundred and sixty times in his heart. Ye Shengnan is also afraid that things will make a big fuss, and it will not only be a shame when the time comes. If the eighth prince really wants to help this dead girl, his situation will be very dangerous. He can't ask anyone else for this matter, it is impossible for the Seventh Prince to help him, and it is even more impossible for the Prince to help him! Because Ye Lianrong was originally a murderer, they couldn't ruin their reputation because of this.

Ye Shengnan was in a dilemma, on the one hand, he was afraid of Lin Yinan's power, and on the other hand, he was afraid of what kind of consequences he would bring to himself and Ye Lianrong if he told the truth.

Lu Zhiyao silently looked at Ye Shengnan's expression, kindly wanting to calm him down. "Uncle, you don't want to make a big deal about this matter, and I don't want to make a big deal about it. If you really involve the Eighth Prince and the Crown Prince, you are not a good person, and my father is in a dilemma. All I want is the truth. ”

Lu Zhiyao said as he spoke, tears flowed uncontrollably. Looking at Lu Yuanzheng with teary eyes, Lu Zhiyao's voice trembled a little and said: "Dad, you don't know the grievances in the heart of Lu Dao's daughter over the years, and I don't know how Lu Dao feels every time her daughter hears someone else say that it was her daughter who killed her mother and brother." I don't want my father to misunderstand me again, and I don't want my mother to feel cold under Jiuquan. ”

Lu Zhiyao cried and threw himself into Lu Yuanzheng's arms, causing Lu Yuanzheng's stiff body to take a step back.

Lu Zhiyao's tears quickly soaked Lu Yuanzheng's clothes, Lu Yuanzheng looked at Ye Shengnan in an irritable mood, the matter is already clear, isn't it?

Lu Yuanzheng really didn't expect things to be like this, he obviously used that tone to reprimand Lu Zhiyao before, so that she was not allowed to wronged Ye Lianrong. But now......

Thinking about Yang Xinyuan, who died tragically after giving birth to Lu Zhiyao, and thinking about the son who died just after learning to walk, Lu Yuanzheng also had the urge to cry.

For many years, he blamed himself. In the years after Yang Xinyuan and her son died one after another, Lu Yuanzheng always felt that it was because of his own negligence that they let their mother and son leave him one after another. But later, when Lu Zhiyao grew up, when the rumor that Lu Zhiyao was a broom star gradually spread, and when everyone was saying that Lu Zhiyao had killed her mother and brother, Lu Yuanzheng's heart was shaken.

Perhaps, it's really not your fault? Perhaps, I really did a good enough job?

Lu Yuanzheng listened to those rumors, survived day by day, and ignored Lu Zhiyao day by day. All these years have passed, and he has even taken that rumor as fact. But now, reality gave him such a slap in the face, and although it hurt him, he couldn't dodge.
