Chapter 111: Change
Aunt Xue, who was locked up in the firewood room, lost her previous arrogance, and lay on the cold floor with her dying, staring at Lu Wenyun with hateful eyes.
"Aunt Xue, don't look at me like that, this is your retribution, when you forced my mother to death, you thought that you would have such a day, all of this was caused by yourself." Lu Wenyun looked at Aunt Xue who was spread on the ground, and his heart was very relieved.
"Little slut...... It's you, it's you...... Right. Aunt Xue said with a faint breath.
"How could it be me? Didn't you climb into someone else's bed and get pregnant with a wild seed? is so shameless, and wants to be the prefect's wife. Lu Wenyun sneered.
"It's you, if I get out alive, don't think about it like you, you little slut, I'll let you get it back a hundredfold and a thousand." Aunt Xue used all her strength to roar out the unwillingness in her heart.
"Really? Then wait until you can go out and talk! But don't worry, the show is still waiting for you, I won't let you go so easily, hahaha......" Lu Wenyun finally glanced at Aunt Xue proudly, and disappeared from Aunt Xue's sight with his arrogant head up.
"Tut-tut, the father and daughter of this Lu family are more ruthless than the other." Qingge and Fusang came out of the shadows.
"The family is not a good person." Fusang said with a cold face.
Thinking of Lu Zhong, who was strangled to death by Lu Shenming, Qingge felt a little uncomfortable.
"Fusang, do you think I killed Lu Zhong indirectly by doing this?"
"You didn't kill Lu Zhong, what do you think? It was Shen Jin and Lu Wenyun who teamed up to send people in, and it was Lu Shenming who ordered them to be killed, not to mention, if Lu Zhong did such a thing, sooner or later he would die. Fusang patted Qingge on the shoulder.
"I'll just say, it's okay, let's go! Lu Shenming wants to massacre those displaced people, and we have to go and sum it up with the prince. "She has done everything, and she doesn't regret it.
Lu Wenyue didn't see Aunt Xue for a whole day, the girl in Aunt Xue's room Lian'er died inexplicably, and other people who knew about it also disappeared, which made Lu Wenyue anxious. After returning to the room, Lu Wenyue received an anonymous letter, the content of the letter made Lu Wenyue like five thunderbolts, and earth-shaking changes took place in just one night, Lu Wenyue couldn't believe it and didn't want to believe it.
Lu Wenyue quietly came to the firewood room and wanted to ask Aunt Xue in person. Lu Wenyue approached the firewood room, there was a sparse sound from the firewood room, gently piercing the paper outside the window, Lu Wenyue secretly glanced inside, and when she saw the situation inside, she was so frightened that she covered her mouth and took a few steps back, her face was pale, her dull eyes stared at the window incredulously, and she shook her head vigorously.
"You go in and have a look."
A voice suddenly came from not far behind him, and Lu Wenyue flashed into the corner in a trance and hid.
"Yes, Miss."
The door of the firewood room was opened by the guards, and after a while, two strong men came out, and the guards brought people to Lu Wenyue's side.
"If you let others know what the consequences will be, tomorrow is still this hour, and you can go." Lu Wenyue said coldly with two people on her back.
"Yes, miss, we promise to keep our mouths shut." The two nodded respectfully, and left one after the other with a smile on the corner of their mouths.
Lu Wenyue, who was hiding in the shadows, gritted her teeth, Lu Wenyun actually ..... How dare you ...... This vicious woman.
"Let's go!"
Seeing Lu Wenyue leaving, Lu Wenyue ran out quickly and rushed into the firewood room, only to see Aunt Xue lying naked on the ground, motionless.
"Mother, how are you?" Lu Wenyue helped her mother up with tears in her eyes and gently helped her put on her clothes.
"Yue'er...... Yue'er, is that you? Aunt Xue, who was glazed over, finally reacted.
"Mother, mother, how can they treat you like this, how can they ......" Lu Wenyue hugged Aunt Xue in her arms, and tears fell silently.
"Yo, this is distressing." Behind him, Lu Wenyun suddenly appeared at the door of the firewood room.
"Lu Wenyun, you ...... You didn't go? β
"Lu Wenyue, don't you claim to be smart? Do you think that whoever wrote to you, who let you watch such a good show, I just deliberately let you see what your lowly aunt is, hooking up with three and four, shameless. β
Lu Wenyue put her mother down, stood up, turned around, and slapped Lu Wenyun in the face.
"Lu Wenyun, you slut, don't talk about my mother like that."
"Hit me? Lu Wenyue, don't forget, your mother's life is now in my hands! You also saw such a powerful picture just now, let me tell you, as long as your mother does not die, I will let those people accompany your mother every day. Lu Wenyun stroked his face and stared at Lu Wenyue viciously.
"You...... Lu Wenyun, you are also a woman, how can you do such a thing? Aren't you afraid that I'll tell Dad? Lu Wenyue looked at the crazy woman in front of her strangely.
"Tell Daddy? Hahaha, do you think I dare to do anything without my father's instructions? Lu Wenyue, it was you, a lowly mother, who killed my mother, if she doesn't die for a day, I want her to be tortured for a day. But you can get down on your knees and beg me, and maybe I'll consider sparing her. β
Lu Wenyue looked sideways at Aunt Xue who was lying on the ground like a dead person, and there was a faint pain in her heart, and Lu Wenyun knelt down with a 'bang'.
"Hahaha, Lu Wenyue, you also have today, say you are naΓ―ve or stupid? You think I'm going to let you go, foolish dreamer. Lu Wenyun glanced at Lu Wenyue at his feet with disdain, and walked away proudly.
"Lu Wenyun, you slut, slut." Lu Wenyue clenched her fists in annoyance, eager to kill Lu Wenyun.
"Yue'er...... Yue'er. On the ground, Aunt Xue called softly to her daughter.
"Mother, what's wrong with mother." Lu Wenyue hurriedly crawled to her mother's side.
"Yue'er, you listen to your mother." Aunt Xue held Lu Wenyue's hand tightly, she listened to Lu Wenyun's words just now, but she didn't expect her to follow Lu Shenming for so many years, Lu Shenming actually treated her like this, it was really inferior.
"Mother, what are you going to say?"
"It's impossible for Lu Shenming to let go of his mother, there are some evidence of Lu Shenming's collusion with thieves and robbers over the years, corruption and bribery, you take these things to His Royal Highness King Han." Since Lu Shenming did such a thing to her, don't blame her for tearing her face with him.
"Mother, you have to report Dad." Lu Wenyue looked at Aunt Xue nervously.
"He's not your father, he's not worthy." Aunt Xue grabbed Lu Wenyue's hand excitedly, "Only in this way can you save your mother, you will help your mother, right, my good Yue'er." β
Lu Wenyue looked at Aunt Xue and hesitated, if she reported her father, her father would inevitably go to prison, then she would no longer be the daughter of the prefect, and those glory and wealth would not belong to her.
"Yue'er, are you okay with your mother?" Aunt Xue looked at Lu Wenyue expectantly.
"Mother, I promise you, I promise you." Lu Wenyue is really powerless to face such a mother.
"You come here with your ears, and my mother will tell you where to put your things."
Aunt Xue unreservedly handed over her last hole card to her daughter and pinned her hopes on her daughter.
Lu Wenyue said goodbye to Aunt Xue and promised that she would definitely be rescued. That night, Lu Wenyue got the evidence that Aunt Xue said, but Lu Wenyue, who got the evidence, hesitated, if these things were handed over, it would inevitably be detrimental to her father and would subvert everything she had now, but if she didn't hand it over, she would have no way to rescue her mother, and Lu Wenyue was in contradiction between the two and didn't know what to do.
Lu Shenming's plan was carried out tonight, and You Zhihong and several officials gathered the soldiers, just waiting for Lu Shenming's order.
"Have all the displaced people gathered in one place?" Lu Shenming looked at the dark night.
"Don't worry, my lord, you won't miss a single one." You Zhihong looked around rigorously and confirmed that there was no one around.
"Go and appease them, lest they make a fuss and put everyone in jail, and not one of them will be left behind." Lu Shenming's eyes were sharp and he looked at the crowd not far away.
"Yes, sir."
This night the cool breeze is blowing, the insects are chirping, the frogs are chirping, the moonlight is beautiful, but people don't know that death has come to them.
"My lord, the hour is almost up."
"Then tell the archers to prepare!"
"Yes"
You Shanhong gave an order, and the soldiers surrounded the displaced people, and only waited for Lu Shenming to speak, and then they could release the arrows. Lu Shenming came out of the darkness with his hands down, looked at the panicked crowd, and raised his hand high.
"Lord Lu is so bold that he dares to slaughter the people behind his back." At the last moment, White Arrow Rain appeared in front of everyone with Fusang and Qingge and his soldiers neatly and quickly holding torches.
"Wang ...... Rajah. Seeing the cold gaze of the white arrow rain, Lu Shenming was so frightened that his feet fell to the ground with weakness, the prince has not left the house for the past few days, why is he here at this time?
Several officials, mainly You Shanhong, were also dumbfounded, and all knelt down in front of the rain of white arrows, but the soldiers with bows and arrows did not know why.
"Lu Shenming killed innocents in vain, disobeyed the emperor's order, and took it for this king."
"The prince spares his life, and the lower officials are also for the sake of other people in Yinzhou, so they have to do this." Lu Shenming kowtowed again and again and begged for mercy.
"The evidence is conclusive, does Lord Lu still have to quibble?" Fusang looked indifferently at Lu Shenming, who was kneeling on the ground.
"The prince said that the lower officials killed innocents in vain, so what should the prince do to protect his subordinates?" Lu Shenming's eyes swept over Qingge, since this is the case, why should he save face for each other.
"Lord Lu said that this king is shielding his subordinates, where did he start?" The white arrow rain stared at Lu Shenming with gloomy eyes, and this Lu Shenming really showed the fox's tail.
"Didn't the prince forget that Ye Huwei proposed some unscrupulous methods, killing dozens of innocent people, how does the prince plan to deal with it?" Lu Shenming secretly smiled proudly.
"Lord Lu didn't mention this, but the king forgot about it, and added a charge to Lord Lu for deliberately murdering others and trying to frame the king's guards."
"The prince is right, all this was instructed by Lu Shenming, he ordered people to poison those who tested the medicine, and he was determined to slaughter these people tonight." You Zhanghong suddenly stood up and denounced Lu Shenming.
Lu Shenming looked at his subordinates who he had relied on for many years in disbelief, and couldn't believe that he had betrayed himself at this moment.
