Chapter 024 Torture

Lu Luo handed over the people who were following her to Yizhu and Biyun, and asked Yiqing to help, tied up the people, and carefully interrogated them after waking up, while she herself took Cao Guangpu into the inner courtyard.

Wen was waiting for Lu Luo to come back.

Seeing that Cao Guangpu was also here, Wen knew that things were going well, and Lu Luo relieved Cao Guangpu of the siege.

Wen also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Auntie." Cao Guangpu gave Wen's salute.

Wen smiled and hurriedly asked Cao Guangpu to sit down, instructed the maid to pour tea, serve good refreshments, and asked the maid to prepare dinner and guest rooms, and to stay with Cao Guangpu tonight.

Cao Guangpu did not refuse.

"What do you do when you come to Kyori?" Wen also asked Cao Guangpu about his intentions.

"There are two fabric shops in Beijing, and they want to do business with our family, and the supply is relatively large, so my mother asked me to go in person, and the young owner came in person to show his sincerity. By the way, take a look at my aunt and Wu Niang. Cao Guangpu smiled, "Mr. Song also accompanied me."

Wen's smile couldn't help but deepen.

Mr. Song in Cao Guangpu's mouth, called Song Maolin, is Cao Guangpu's mother's companion and has always been the chief steward of Cao's shop.

Song Maolin followed Cao Guangpu to Beijing, which can do great things, and he wants to make the marriage between Lu Luo and Cao Guangpu as soon as possible with Lu Qijun's approval.

They are proposing.

traveled thousands of miles to the capital to propose marriage, and Mrs. Cao should be afraid that the Wen family would choose another high branch for her daughter. There are many wealthy families in the capital, and any household is stronger than the Cao family.

Mrs. Cao originally had a character of suffering from gains and losses, which was in line with her style of acting.

Wen Shi immediately knew in his heart.

"It's also a good thing to be able to settle it as soon as possible." Wen thought to himself.

Wen is very satisfied with this son-in-law, Cao Guangpu can't find fault with his appearance or character. Wen loves Lu Luo very much, and feels that no one is worthy of her daughter, but she is very satisfied with Cao Guangpu.

This is probably the mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, the more she looks at it, the more satisfied she becomes, right?

"Where's Mr. Song?" Wen asked Cao Guangpu.

"At the inn."

"Invite him to come and sit tomorrow, I have something to ask him." Wen Shi smiled.

Cao Guangpu was overjoyed. Wen's meaning is that he agreed to the Cao family's proposal and promised to get this matter done first.

A feeling of dust settling made Cao Guangpu feel extremely down-to-earth, and the worries on the road turned into smoke.

Lu Luo also understood.

She glanced at Cao Guangpu and remembered the way he had just run away, but for some reason, she still felt funny, and the corners of her lips were slightly curled.

Wen caught Lu Luo's flash of laughter, misunderstood, and thought that Lu Luo was stealing fun, so he was even more satisfied: "They are happy with each other, this is a good thing." ”

Since the Wen family decided to marry the Cao family, Lu Luo acted quite indifferent, neither happy nor refusal, but very indifferent and completely inappropriate.

This was the first time I had seen her snicker.

Sure enough, after the little farewell, is there more friendship?

"Girl, you're awake." As they spoke, Biyun came in and returned to Lu Luo.

"What's the matter?" Wen asked, unbelieving.

Lu Luo briefly explained the matter.

Wen Shi was startled, hurriedly got up, and said, "What about people, where are you locked up now?" ”

Biyun said: "At the door." ”

"I'll take a look!" Wen's face turned pale, both angry and worried.

Cao Guangpu also wanted to know what trouble Lu Luo was in, so he stood up silently and wanted to follow the Wen family.

And Lu Luo can probably guess who it is. But when the mother wanted to go, she went with her.

Wen walked very fast and killed the gatehouse.

Seeing a medium-sized servant, tied to a chair with a sturdy tie, Yizhu and the three members of the Wen family guarding him and asking him who he was.

The little guy was very arrogant and refused to speak.

"Go, cut the bamboo skewer into thin pieces and poke it through his fingernails. Ten fingers to the heart, see if he says it or not! If you don't say anything, you will chop your hands and feet with a knife, and if you don't say anything after chopping, give me a knife! Wen instructed the family.

The little guy's face finally showed a little fear. However, he had not been tortured, he did not know the pain, and his fear was limited, so he was lucky, and quibbled: "I am just passing by"

"You're not passing by, you're following our girl." Leaning on the bamboo beside the road.

Soon, the family came over with a bamboo stick.

Wen asked the family to tie the little girl's fingers.

The first bamboo stick was only half pierced, and the little guy was in pain and cried wolf, far more painful than he imagined, so he was in a hurry and beckoned: "The villain is from the Chu Palace!" ”

Cao Guangpu glanced at Lu Luo, and a little apprehension flashed in his eyes.

Wen frowned slightly.

Lu Luo had already thought of it, and it was not surprising.

"What is the King of Chu asking you to follow our girl?" Wen asked again.

"No, don't do anything, just look at Miss Lu, as long as Miss Lu doesn't leave the capital, it's fine, once she leaves, you need to be clear immediately, and let the guards at the city gate stop it." The little guy hated that he couldn't do it all, for fear of being stabbed again.

"Why can't you leave?" Wen asked again.

This, the little guy really didn't know, he cried hard, for fear that Wen would not believe it and continue to torture.

Wen believed it.

The crying in the porter was terrible, and Wen Lexi happened to go home at this time.

Seeing this scene, Wen Lexi asked what was going on, and then he noticed Cao Guangpu.

Cao Guangpu looked at Wen Lexi in astonishment. He knew that Wen Lexi was a eunuch, but he didn't expect Wen Lexi to have a strange appearance of a man and a woman.

If it weren't for Wen Lexi asking "what's the matter" as soon as he entered the door, it was a deep and mellow male voice, Cao Guangpu would have treated him as a woman.

Wen Lexi's gaze swept over Cao Guangpu's body, and he didn't say anything, and continued to look at the little guy in the Chu Palace.

Lu Luo told Wen Lexi what happened: "It's someone from the Chu Palace"

Wen Lexi was also furious.

"You eat first, I'll take someone to the palace!" Wen Le said.

He called the housekeeper, escorted the little guy, and went to the palace to complain. At night, in addition to the King of Chu, there may only be the palm print eunuch of the celebrant who can enter the palace wall.

Lu Luo wanted to call him back, but Wen Lexi had already turned around and went out.

Cao Guangpu was present, although Wen was not in the mood, he still cheered up and coped, and the three of them had dinner.

Then, Wen talked to Cao Guangpu about Huzhou Mansion again, and Cao Guangpu said: "Auntie, I'll still go to the inn and come back tomorrow morning to see if Mr. Song has anything to do." ”

Cao Guangpu originally planned to stay here. After this incident, he was extremely uneasy, so he wanted to go back, slowly sort out an idea, and also inquire about who the king of Chu was.

"Your business matters." Wen said, "Come over tomorrow at any time, I'll talk to the boys in the gatehouse, and they will let you in." ”

Cao Guangpu said yes.

Lu Luo sent a carriage to see him off, and told him: "It's dark, be careful." ”

"Okay." Cao Guangpu said, "Wu Niang, I'll bring you the dried vegetables tomorrow." ”

Lu Luo nodded.

After Cao Guangpu left, Wen immediately asked about the King of Chu and asked why Lu Luo was related to him.

Isn't Lu Luo confused?

The general she saved at the beginning was not the king of Chu at all; And the king of Chu, knowing the dagger, still wanted to ask for it, and sent someone to follow Lu Luo, afraid that Lu Luo would leave the capital.

What exactly he was going to do, Lu Luo didn't know.

Their mother and daughter couldn't sleep, so Lu Luo asked the maid to make tea, drank half a cup with her mother, and chatted about her aunt and grandmother while waiting for her uncle to come back.

Wen Shi heard that her aunt asked Cao Guangpu to bring dried vegetables to them, and she couldn't help but sigh: "She is home alone, it's pitiful, we should go back earlier." ”

At the beginning of the year, Wen Lexi finally returned.

Wen Shi and Lu Luo hurriedly greeted him.
