Chapter 232: The True Love of Tribulation
Since Lu Li's accident and An Xiabai brought down Li Wenfeng's family, she has been taking care of her two children all day long, and she has no time to come to the restaurant to help manage it, and the chores of the restaurant fall on Shen Ya alone.
At first, it was okay, Shen Ya was barely able to maintain, but as the days went by, he began to become powerless.
Especially when you are worried about the sunny, this feeling of powerlessness is becoming more and more obvious.
"She said a few days ago that she was not feeling well, and she didn't know if something would happen when she went in this time?" Shen Ya stood behind the counter with a worried face, staring at the door without blinking, just hoping that there would be a miracle in the world, just like the countless jokes Ruqing had made with him before, she suddenly appeared at the door of the restaurant.
The expectation in my heart came to naught in the exchange of guests in the restaurant.
He was really worried about Ruqing.
"The restaurant has really troubled you recently." An Xiabai changed into an inconspicuous dress, slowly walked to Shen Ya's side, and looked apologetic, "Recently, Xiaodong Xiaoxue has always made trouble, and Aunt Xia is a little uncomfortable, I really can't take care of this matter, I hope you will take care of it more." ”
Shen Ya was stunned for a while before realizing that the person standing in front of him was An Xiabai.
"It's all part of the business." He curled the corners of his lips and showed a very faint smile, turned his head and pulled An Xiabai upstairs, "The situation in the capital has not been very optimistic recently, didn't General Li tell you not to go out casually, why did you come out?" ”
Lu Li entrusted An Xiabai to them before he was arrested, and Shen Ya was really afraid that something would happen to An Xiabai.
An Xiabai smiled faintly and said disappreciatively: "It's not that I was unprepared when I came out. ”
The so-called preparation in her mouth is the clothes she is wearing, which is an extremely ordinary dress, at first glance, An Xiabai looks like an ordinary peasant woman, and only when she gets close can she see her true appearance.
But even so, Shen Ya still felt very uneasy.
"Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case, it's better for you to be cautious in the future."
Just when Shen Ya was trying to persuade An Xiabai, Jia Jia downstairs also got the news and hurriedly ran upstairs.
"You're just in time!" An Xia's white eyes lit up, and she was reluctant to let go of Jia Jia's hand, "Wang Zhen that I painted before, draw a few more for me." ”
Jia Jia didn't know what she was thinking, so she didn't hesitate to shake her head and refuse: "If it wasn't for the portrait I painted last time, someone with a heart might not have had the opportunity to make a big fuss about General Lu at all, I can't paint this painting." ”
Jia Jia was really scared, she didn't want An Xiabai and the others to be involved again.
She was kind-hearted, but An Xiabai refused to accept it: "Let's draw another one, I'm useful, don't worry about someone framing this kind of thing, only we will frame each other in the future." ”
Living in the Li family these days, An Xiabai is taking care of the children while planning to help Lu Li wash his name.
Li Wenfeng and King Li's words don't work, so it may work to let the people of the capital speak, Lu Li has made great contributions to the country in life and death over the years, the emperor doesn't remember, the people must remember!
She wanted to incite the people to complain about Lu Li.
As soon as this idea was proposed, it was denied by Shen Ya: "Let's not talk about the situation in the capital, let's talk about General Lu, his crime has not yet been decided, if we mobilize public opinion, what if it causes a counterreaction?" ”
Shen Ya was most worried about the main reason that he was afraid that the matter would implicate An Xiabai and the two children.
Two children and a woman's family with no background can't withstand the pressure from above.
"I've already figured it out." Even though Shen Ya and Jia Jia took turns to persuade him, An Xiabai still insisted on his decision.
Jia Jia and Shen Ya, who were helpless, could only do what she thought.
It didn't take long for them to print many portraits of Wang Zhen, along with the fact that he deliberately framed Lu Li.
Although the people did not know the reason, when they saw the portraits all over the street, they still began to talk about it, and only regarded it as a gossip and a joke.
They don't care, but the person concerned cares.
When Wang Zhen hurriedly ran to the notice board with his portrait, he was so angry that he almost burst into flames: "Who posted this?" ”
No one dared to say anything.
There are a few sharp-eyed people who recognized Wang Zhen as the person in the portrait, and pointed at him one after another, and said that he was a contemporary Yue Fei, who specially framed righteous people who were loyal to the country.
In the story, Wang Zhen was portrayed as a villain, everyone ridiculed him, and some of them were even more extreme, even turning out eggs and rotten vegetable leaves and smashing them on him.
Wang Zhen was almost mad, but he was helpless.
When she endured her anger and returned to the cell, when she wanted to pour all her anger on Lu Li, she was told that Lu Li's case had been ascertained, that he and his brothers were not guilty, that there was insufficient evidence for the murder of the prince, and that the collusion between Ruqing and Lu Li was not enough to convict, and it would not be long before Lu Li was put back.
"How is this possible!" Wang Zhen clenched his fists, his eyes as sharp as knives, "Really find out?" ”
The official who came to report the news nodded timidly: "It's really not guilty." ”
After all, no matter how much Wang Zhen won the emperor's trust, he was just a guard in the palace, and he had no real power at all, and the only thing he could do was to secretly retaliate.
Lu Li's acquittal verdict soon reached Li Wenfeng's mansion, and An Xiabai laughed and cried when he heard the news.
Zhou folded his hands in prayer: "Thank God, fortunately, people are okay." ”
Xiaodong Xiaoxue was beside An Xiabai at this time, and when they saw their mother's tears, they raised their hands to help wipe them, and they wiped away all the tears after a while.
"I'll pick it up myself!" An Xiabai's heart warmed, and he immediately stood up, and before he could step out, he was stopped by Lu Liu'er: "Sister-in-law, you have been busy with your brother's affairs these days, and your body has not been well maintained, so don't go out, take their affairs and hand them over to Brother Shen, the prison is not far from the general's mansion, presumably they will be able to come back soon, sister-in-law, you better clean yourself up first." ”
Yes, I have been busy taking care of the children these days, and I have been busy discussing countermeasures with Li Wenfeng, but I haven't taken care of it much, it would not be good if Lu Li came over to see this situation.
An Xia Bai forcibly suppressed the melancholy in her heart, and happily dressed up.
On the other side, Shen Ya was waiting outside the yamen.
Wang Zhen reluctantly escorted Lu Li and the others out: "Even if you are lucky enough to escape this time, you will have to suffer it in the future!" ”
The cruel words he left behind only received a contemptuous glance from Lu Li, meaning to let him let the horse come over.
Because Lu Li was forced to confess by words and deeds, and the conditions in prison were not good, his body did not recover much, and he even needed someone to help him walk. The whole person looked very weak.
Lu Li, Hua Qiqi, Liu Fengfeng, Zhang Xiaodong, and several other unfamiliar brothers came out of the yamen one by one.
Shen Ya waited anxiously, but he never waited for a familiar figure.
Why didn't Ruqing come out together?
Shen Ya, who was anxious, couldn't take care of Lu Li, and directly took Wang Zhen's hand and asked, "Where did another girl go?" ”
Wang Zhen's expression changed slightly, and he snorted: "She, she committed suicide in fear of sin." ”
In just one sentence, it fell on Shen Ya's ears like a thunderbolt from the sky, he couldn't believe that he had been waiting for so many days, but in the end, he was waiting for this result.
Why are Lu Li and the others okay, but Ruqing is dead?
The anger in his heart drove Shen Ya to continue to ask, but Wang Zhen didn't want to have such an opportunity with him, after saying that Ruqing committed suicide in fear of sin, he ran to the yamen like oil on the soles of his feet, and didn't even dare to turn his head back.
"Ruqing, Ruqing...... cough cough....." Lu Li's words were stuck in his throat, because his body was too weak, he didn't finish what he wanted to say, his eyes were black and he fainted.
Zhang Xiaodong and Liu Fengfeng, who were in charge of supporting, were both anxious: "Brother Lu, Brother Lu, wake up, don't scare us!" ”
Among the crowd, only Hua Qiqi was able to keep calm: "You take Brother Lu to the General's Mansion first, and I will accompany Shen Ya here." ”
If something happened to Ruqing, the relationship between Shen Ya and her was like that, and Hua Qiqi was worried that he wouldn't be able to think about it.
His fears proved to be correct, and Shen Ya's mood became very unstable.
His face was as white as paper, obviously under the sun, but he couldn't help but tremble, looking at Hua Qiqi, he seemed to see a life-saving straw: "What happened to Ruqing?" ”
Hua Qiqi also wanted to answer his question, but he really couldn't answer it: "At that time, the cell where we were held was very far away, and the closest ones were Brother Lu and Miss Sheng; In the cell, what is her situation, only Brother Lu knows, or you go back first, and then ask carefully when Brother Lu wakes up, it's better than standing here. ”
This Shen Cliff, seeing that people can't stand it!
"Nope." Shen Ya didn't believe that Ruqing would die like this, they had agreed to get married, and they wanted to have two white fat boys like An Xiabai and Lu Li, how could it end in such a hurry?
He gritted his teeth, tore a piece of fabric from his body, and then bit his fingers to write on the cloth.
Life has to see people, death has to see corpses, Ruqing's things can't just be forgotten!
In order to show his determination, Shen Ya deliberately ran to the front of the palace and knelt directly on the ground in front of many guards and many people passing by.
A person's blood book is more and more frightening under the sun.
Passers-by stopped to talk about Shen Ya.
Wang Zhen, who was hiding in the dark and secretly watching all this, hated it so much that he turned his head and asked the little guard who was following him: "What about people, are they dead or alive now?" ”
"I'm still in a cell, and now I have more air in and less air out, and I don't think I'm going to die."
The little guard glanced at Wang Zhen and asked cautiously, "My lord, what should we do now?" They are pressing so hard, do they want to hand people over? ”
"Give them people, think of the beauty!" Wang Zhen sneered and waved his hand, "They want to see people, I just don't give them, you pick two officials with a tighter mouth, drag people to the mass grave and throw them away, there are so many wild dogs in that place, there may not even be bones left in one night, I will see you find them when the time comes!" ”
His cruel interruption made the little guard shiver, and his sympathetic gaze turned on Shen Ya, and he quickly obeyed Wang Zhen's order to throw people away.
