Chapter 14: The Lu Family's Stratagem

"Where are we going to get 500,000 taels of gold now?" Lu Shi said with a worried face, "Dad, what should we do now?"

"What else can I do, now find a way to raise money and pay the money!" said Old Man Lu patted his knees with a look of remorse, "What kind of sin have I done!" The whole person looked very painful.

"But the letter said that the ransom was exchanged for Yue'er, could it be that Su Yun and Su Li would not let them go?" Lu Wu analyzed with a serious face, "In this case, why don't we go along with the water and blame them for this incident." ”

Lu Wu touched his chin, and his eyes were full of calculation, "Dad, Su Yun and Su Li are tied up, when they come back, we will make a little use of the people, so that the three of them become tigers, and the Son of Heaven will still retire from this family business." ”

Where did Lu Shi still have the time to think about these things, she only thought about where to raise so much gold.

500,000 taels of gold, even if Shangshu Mansion and Lu Mansion are mortgaged, it is estimated that it is not worth 500,000 taels of gold.

"What the hell should I do here!" Lu Shi looked at a loss, "Where am I going to get 500,000 taels of gold now, my poor boy!"

Old Man Lu glanced at them, lowered his head and didn't know what to do.

He got up and went back to the room, and when he came back again, he had a box in his hand, and Old Man Lu put the box down and pushed it in front of them, "There are some silver and gold bars here, although there are not so many, but they should be enough." ”

When Lu Shi opened the box, he found that there were about twenty gold bars in the box, and there were even some illegible words engraved on them.

"Dad!" Lu Shi looked at Old Man Lu with a shocked expression, and his eyes revealed a little doubt, "Where did you get so much silver?"

"Don't ask. Old Man Lu's voice was slightly deep, "If it weren't for the cause, how could I take these things out?" Old Man Lu was holding the gold bar, with a hint of complicated emotions in his eyes.

After Lu and the two brothers glanced at each other, they didn't ask about anything more.

And Su Xun, who was far away in the office, also learned about it, his face was solemn when he heard this, he looked at the secret guard in front of him, and frowned, "But really? They were really kidnapped?"

The dark guard looked at Su Xun and nodded, "After they had an accident, their subordinates quickly got the news from Bianjing, and they told the news to the adults. ”

Su Xun glanced at the official document in his hand and put down the pen in his hand, "Do you know who kidnapped them, what was the idea?"

"The subordinates heard that it seems that the other party asked for 500,000 taels of gold, and this is the news that the subordinates have just received. The dark guard glanced up at Su Xun again.

Su Xun sat down on the chair behind him with a solemn face, and muttered to himself, "Five hundred thousand taels of gold?"

"Who is the other party? How can you ask for 500,000 taels ......of gold?" Su Xun looked remorseful, "Where did I go to get 500,000 taels of gold?"

"My lord, I heard that the other party is a hero of the green forest on Leyou Mountain, and those people don't take the court's tricks in their eyes, and this time they ......will make a move against Shangshu Mansion," the secret guard glanced at Su Xun and continued to speak, "It must be who provoked those people." ”

"How is it possible?" Su Xun rubbed his eyebrows, "How could someone provoke those people, they didn't even care about the imperial court, how could they suddenly make a move against Shangshu Mansion?" Su Xun glanced at the table with the piled up of official documents again, "I hope Madam can handle this matter well." ”

But Su Xun thought about it carefully and felt that something was not right, as if from the beginning, this matter was aimed at them, deliberately letting him leave Bianjing at this time, and deliberately kidnapping her daughter, and what was the purpose of the other party?

"You go back first and see how Madame handles this matter. Su Xun frowned, and seemed to remember the information he had read from Su Li's hand before.

If it was really the Lu clan that wanted to deal with Su Li, then why did they lose Su Yue?

If it weren't for the Lu family wanting to deal with her, then probably only the Lu family would point all the fingers at Su Li at this time.

It's just that they don't think that everything is out of their control.

If so, who could have grasped all this in advance and arranged this scene?

On Leyou Mountain, Su Li and the others have been locked up here for about three days, although someone brings them food every day, but they eat a little bit every time, and in the end, Su Yue couldn't help but eat all the things left.

"What are you doing!" Su Li looked at Su Yue and frowned, "Do you know what you just ate!It's just a blink of an eye, how did you eat all these things!" she shook Su Yue's shoulders with a nervous expression.

"I'm so hungry...... Su Yue cried as she said, "I'm really hungry......" Su Yue cried out.

Su Yun glanced at Su Li and said nervously, "Ah Li, is there anything in here?"

"There is a herb called 'Hehuan', which means ......" Su Li said and glanced at Su Yue again, "We didn't eat much every time, how can you eat it today." ”

Su Yue shrank and glanced at Su Li, but didn't say a word for a long time.

Su Li secretly hooked the corners of his lips where Su Yue couldn't see.

At this time, the man in black during the day walked in, he glanced at Su Yue, and then directly wanted to pull Su Yue away.

Su Li took this opportunity to pick up the stick next to him and knocked it heavily on the back of the person, the man snatched the stick from Su Li's hand and kicked Su Li, Su Li's fat body took a few steps back, but he still protected Su Yue behind him.

"Sisterhood is deep!" The man in black looked at Su Li with a smile on his lips, he let go of the white silk in his hand and rushed towards Su Yue's neck, the white silk was tightly pulled by Su Li in the middle, and it was not until the hands were strangled with blood that the man in black let go of his hand.

"Tsk, it's really affectionate and righteous. The man in black looked disdainful, "I don't know if I will appreciate it!" He glanced at Su Li and the three of them before turning to leave.

"Third sister, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Su Yue had never experienced anything like this, but when she saw Su Yue come forward like that, how could she not be moved at all?

"I'm a fat man, so it's nothing. Su Li looked at Su Yue's expression and secretly hooked the corners of his lips.

Su Yue looked up at Su Li, her eyes were filled with tears, but she couldn't say any extra words.

"I'm the most powerful of the three of us, so how can I not protect you. Su Li glanced at Su Yue and said comfortably, "As long as you're okay." ”

"Ah Li!" Su Yun looked at her bleeding palm, her face was distressed, and she immediately tore off the corner of her skirt to bandage her wound, without even complaining.

Now in this situation, only they can save them.

Su Yue looked at the blood marks on Su Li's palm, raised his hand to stroke the strangulation marks on his neck, and closed his eyes in some pain.
