Chapter 183: Watching from the Sidelines
Fortunately, Lu Xuan reacted very quickly, and before he could take two steps, he hurriedly rushed to him and stopped them: "What is the second uncle doing, hasn't the second uncle tasted enough of the consequences of the crime of trespassing on the house?" ”
When Lu Xuan came back from Jiangnan, he heard that Lu Xilong was arrested by Gu Huanli and sent to the Criminal Department for bullying Cui's family and was severely punished for trespassing into a private house.
It's not that she is protecting Lu Qingmeng, it's just that if she wants to spread Lu Xuan, she will never tolerate it.
When Lu Xuan said this, Lu Xilong really stopped, and everyone in the Shu branch also followed behind, not daring to step forward easily.
Lu Xuan only had time to ask: "Qingmeng has just arrived on the front foot, dare to ask how the second uncle knows that she is here?" ”
Lu Xilong didn't answer when he heard this, he only looked at the fat Xu family beside him with a hesitant face, and the fat Xu family hurriedly dodged his gaze.
The family looked at each other for a long time before they saw Lu Jiaojiao stand up from the crowd: "Lu Qingmeng sneaked into the house and stole my things, I sent someone to follow her all the way, only to find that she was back here." ”
The reason is decent, but when I saw Lu Xilong's appearance next to him, he seemed to be relieved, and at a glance, he knew that it was nonsense.
But whether it's true or false really has nothing to do with Lu Xuan, anyway, she has no intention of protecting Lu Qingmeng at all.
Only then did Lu Xuan order to the rice cake that came up: "Rice cake, go to the other garden and invite Miss Qingmeng out." ”
Hearing this, the rice cake hurriedly left, and everyone in the Shuzhi branch invariably showed a sneering smile on their faces.
Lu Xilong looked even more like a sycophant, and walked over to Lu Xuan's side: "Ah Xuan really deserves to be the eldest son of my Lu family, and his open-mindedness really makes me admire as a second uncle." ”
But this time it is obviously Lu Xilong's own affection, Lu Xuan does distinguish between public and private on weekdays, but this time he does not want to uphold justice for either party.
None of the two between the Shu branch and Lu Qingmeng was worthy of Lu Xuan, they were both embarrassed, this time the Shu branch came to look for Lu Qingmeng, and I don't know if they really came to seek revenge or have other plans.
Lu Xuan didn't have a big deal today, and she was very happy to watch a good show for free.
On the other side, Lu Qingmeng was proudly packing her luggage, planning to return to Lu Mansion to be her eldest lady, when she heard a knock on the door, followed by the well-behaved voice of rice cakes:
"Miss Qingmeng, my son-in-law invites you to come to the front yard."
As soon as he heard that it was Lu Xuan who wanted to see him, Lu Qingmeng hurriedly replied without thinking about it: "Okay, I'll go over immediately." ”
rushed all the way to the front yard, but it was not only Lu Xuan who saw him, seeing the people of the Shuzhi branch glaring at him viciously, the fake smile on Lu Qingmeng's face suddenly froze.
"Second uncle, what are you ......" Lu Qingmeng looked at Lu Xilong with a blank expression.
Before he could speak, he saw Lu Jiaojiao walking towards Lu Qingmeng angrily, and without saying a word, he slapped her the face.
Lu Xuan couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this: These people are so open-minded in acting?
But after thinking about it, didn't Lu Qingmeng rely on this method to gain Lu Xuan's unwavering trust?
Therefore, what to say at this time, Lu Xuan will no longer be swayed by the benevolence of the woman, no matter what is happening in front of her, she can just stand aside and watch silently.
After a while, I saw Lu Qingmeng holding his hand over the place where he had just been beaten red by Lu Jiaojiao, and tears slipped out of his gentle eyes in an instant.
"Jiaojiao, I haven't seen you for a long time, why did you beat me indiscriminately?" Lu Qingmeng said pitifully, but Lu Jiaojiao was unmoved, and the ruthlessness on her face did not diminish at all.
"Why did I hit you, don't you know in your heart? Who can show this pitiful appearance all day long! Lu Jiaojiao said aggressively.
Lu Xuan has always understood Lu Jiaojiao's temperament, although she is not a good person, but she also has no city government, she speaks and does things straightforwardly, at this time, she can make her so angry, I think Lu Qingmeng really did something to offend her.
Lu Xuan didn't speak, but continued to stand in place and look at Lu Qingmeng, until she explained to Lu Jiaojiao with an innocent face: "I didn't, what did I do to displease you, you can say it bluntly, I will change it." ”
"Change? Dogs can't change eating, who are you fooling! I'm going to teach you what it means to keep other people's things untouchable! ”
The more Lu Jiaojiao talked, the more annoyed she became, as if Lu Qingmeng was not stealing her things, but the man who robbed her.
Lu Xuan thought this was the case, and was watching the excitement, but when he saw Lu Qingmeng being chased by Lu Jiaojiao, he hid behind him at the moment.
Lu Xuan was stunned, and a pair of blank eyes looked straight at Lu Jiaojiao in front of her.
Lu Jiaojiao originally looked fierce and vicious, but when she met Lu Xuan, she immediately retracted, and then politely said to her: "Brother, can you allow me and Lu Qingmeng to solve it by ourselves?" ”
Lu Xuan got out of the way without saying a word, and Lu Qingmeng was instantly exposed in front of Lu Jiaojiao.
Seeing that Lu Jiaojiao was about to do it again, Lu Xuan immediately opened her mouth and reminded her, "Be quiet, don't make noise to my aunt and Nanjun."
After speaking, Lu Xuan immediately turned around and went back, leaving Lu Qingmeng alone to face the people of the Shu Branch.
The rice cake was originally read in Lu Qingmeng, and it can be regarded as growing up in the branch since childhood, and he was worried about her.
But seeing that Lu Xuan, who was a brother, was so resolute, she couldn't say anything more, so she could only obediently follow behind and leave.
Walking to the corner, Lu Xuan suddenly stopped and hid to the side.
Rice cake suddenly looked dazed: "Childe, you are ......"
Before the rice cake could react, Lu Xuan had already pulled her to her side and made a "shhh" gesture at her.
Only then did the rice cake come to his senses, and then asked Lu Xuan in a low voice, "Did Childe deliberately go away and want to observe Miss Qingmeng?" ”
Lu Xuan nodded: "It's too strange for the Shu branch to come, I suspect that they have already colluded, don't make a sound, take a look." ”
The two of them looked over there in silence, and the place Lu Xuan chose was just right to hear each other's voices clearly.
I saw Lu Jiaojiao grabbing Lu Qingmeng's slender arm, and that hand could feel the anger from afar.
The rest of the people behind him also approached and followed behind Lu Jiaojiao, all with a look of wanting to eat Lu Qingmeng.
Lu Qingmeng's face was filled with visible panic, and she didn't know if it was true or if her acting skills were perfect.
"You cheap hoof, you actually hooked up with King Chang in secret, if I hadn't sent someone to keep an eye on it, I didn't know you had such great ability!" Lu Jiaojiao scolded Lu Qingmeng.
Lu Xuan heard it clearly on the side, no wonder Lu Jiaojiao saw Lu Qingmeng's face so fierce, it turned out that she really robbed a man.
However, Lu Xuan was puzzled, she clearly remembered that Lu Qingmeng had hooked up with the prince in her previous life, so that Li Ce could smoothly fall under the command of the East Palace, why did Lu Jiaojiao say that she hooked up with the prince at this time?
After thinking about it for a while, thinking that Li Ce still has something to do with King Chang now, Lu Xuan couldn't help but have a bold guess in his heart: Could it be that Lu Qingmeng had already met Li Ce during the days when he disappeared?
Extrapolating in this way, Lu Qingmeng's whereabouts during this period of time make sense, what Qingheshan temple is simply well hidden by Li Ce.
Thinking of Lu Xuan like this, he noticed a trace of strangeness again, no wonder when he saw Li Ce in the household department before, he always felt that there seemed to be an indescribable meaning in his eyes when he looked at him.
Thinking about it, Li Cexu had already heard about his reputation from Lu Qingmeng's mouth.
If Li Ce colluded with Lu Qingmeng to start planning a plan to trap Lu Xuan because of this, then Lu Xuan's real grudge would have become Lu Qingmeng.
Lu Xuan was secretly speculating, only to hear Lu Qingmeng over there crying and denying it: "Jiaojiao, I don't, I don't know His Royal Highness King Chang, so how can I talk about seduction?" ”
Lu Jiaojiao ignored it, after all, she had also seen Lu Qingmeng's methods and scheming.
At this point, whether you should believe in your cronies or believe in a person who has repeatedly betrayed you, you must be anyone, and your heart should be like a mirror.
Thinking of this, Lu Jiaojiao glared at Lu Qingmeng viciously without saying a word: "So you did everything possible to give me a trick to send me to His Royal Highness King Chang, but you were actually arranging an opportunity for yourself to get close to His Royal Highness King Chang, right?" ”
Lu Qingmeng still shook his head, and even knelt down for Lu Jiaojiao: "Jiaojiao, I really don't know where you heard these rumors, but I really have never done anything to be sorry for you." ”
Lu Xuan couldn't help but laugh contemptuously when she heard this, if she hadn't left, she really wanted to see if Lu Qingmeng could still say such things in front of her.
Seeing Lu Qingmeng kneeling in front of her, Lu Jiaojiao did not relent, and she still didn't have a good face for her.
At that time, the fat Xu family, who had been standing behind Lu Jiaojiao without saying a word, was rushed up from behind by Lu Qingmeng, a fox-like son who was used to winning men's favor with weakness.
Fat Xu didn't say a word, he kicked Lu Qingmeng's shoulder, where could her thin body bear such a weight, and she fell backwards in an instant, her elbow hit the ground heavily.
Seeing Lu Qingmeng's tears sliding down her face like pearls with broken threads, Fat Xu did not have a trace of sympathy for her, but scolded her directly:
"You scheming vixen, you have one thing on your mouth and one on your back, left and right, but you can make our family Jiaojiao miserable."
Lu Qingmeng denied it again and again, but none of the Shuzhi family was willing to let her go, looking at their appearance, it didn't look like they were performing, Lu Xuan reluctantly believed everything he saw in front of him.
"How on earth are you going to let me go?" Lu Qingmeng endured the pain and asked the people in the Shu Branch.
Fat Xu snorted coldly: "Let you go, you caused our family Jiaojiao to lose her innocence, and you still want me to let you go?" Dream on! ”
