Ding Jinzhi came to the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department, handed over Lu Wenzheng's eloped daughters Lu Qiuyue and Jiang Chun to Lu Wenzheng, and humiliated him in a weird way, and then laughed proudly and led people away.

In the living room, only Lu Wenzheng and Xu Zhi and others were left sitting or standing like chickens; His face was gloomy and he was speechless for a long time.

Xu Zhi retreated left and right, looked at Lu Wenzheng cautiously and said, "My lord, you ......"

Lu Wenzheng felt that his heart was trembling, something was expanding little by little in his veins, and gradually boiling and spreading to his body.

It was the power of anger and shame that had been suppressed for a long time. Uncontrollable, strong and swift, it instantly washed away the pain in the depths of his feelings, washed away the bitterness in the depths of his memory, and instantly devoured his whole person from head to toe.

Finally, Lu Wenzheng slowly stood up and walked in front of Jiang Chun and Lu Qiuyue step by step; His eyes were scarlet, he stared straight at them, and he reached out and pointed at them angrily, as if he wanted to say something, but after a few moments of twitching of his lips, he finally couldn't say anything.

Jiang Chun's face was covered in cold sweat, his fists were clenched tightly, and he lowered his head in panic, not daring to face Lord Lu's eyes as sharp as knives.

Lu Qiuyue felt as if she was overwhelmed by a thick sense of shame, her eyes were hazy with tears, her two hands twisted the hem of her clothes, and said in a trembling voice: "Dad! ……”

Lu Wenzheng's entire face had turned purple-red, and his facial features were also viciously squeezed together, like a beast that had been forced to embarrass and was waiting for an opportunity to fight back.

He raised his hand tremblingly and slapped Lu Qiuyue in the face!

Lu Qiuyue stumbled a few steps and fell to the ground.

With this slap, Lu Wenzheng seemed to have exhausted all the strength of her body, and the huge force made her entire cheek almost numb with pain, and a trace of red blood slowly oozed from the corner of her mouth, and her ears roared for a while.

She was speechless at this point, just clutching her hot, red and swollen cheeks, tears streaming down her face, crying unspeakably.

Jiang Chun staggered forward and held her tremblingly.

He raised his face, looked at Lu Wenzheng with misty eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "Lord Lu, all the mistakes are my fault, I just ask you not to blame Miss!" ”

Lu Wenzheng's pupils shrank suddenly, and his shining eyes stared at him, his eyes full of monstrous anger and resentment.

"Jiang Chun," he said word by word, very slowly, but the words poked deep into his heart, "ask yourself, have I ever been sorry for you for so many years?" Why would you take revenge and do such an unkind and unrighteous thing? ……”

Jiang Chun's face was full of shame and shamelessness; He only felt his throat tighten, as if he had been strangled by something, and he couldn't say a word.

Lu Wenzheng snorted coldly, his eyes shot a sword-like coldness, and he commanded sharply: "Come on, take him down first!" ”

With an order, a few wolf-like guards broke into the door, escorted Jiang Chun to push and shove outside.

Lu Qiuyue rushed forward desperately, grabbed Jiang Chun's arm, and cried hoarsely: "Don't! Dad, please, don't separate us! - Jiang Chun, even if we die, we have to die together! ……”

The guards couldn't say anything, pushed Lu Qiuyue away, and dragged Jiang Chun away with a hard drag.

Lu Qiuyue lay on the ground, her hair was scattered, her eyes were full of scarlet, she cried heartbreakingly, bitter and desperate, "Dad, please, don't separate us, don't!" ……”

The anger in Lu Wenzheng's heart rolled in his chest like a fireball; His face was pale, his whole body trembled, and he said in a trembling voice: "Don't call me father, I Lu Wenzheng doesn't have an unfaithful and unfilial daughter like you!" ……”

With a long sigh, he staggered away to hide his face......

The next day, Feng Lin, a eunuch in the palace, came to the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department and summoned Lu Wenzheng to the palace to face the saint. Lu Wenzheng "chuckled" in his heart, and a bad premonition came to his heart.

He followed Feng Lin nervously to the emperor's imperial study.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Ding Jin standing beside him, his deep eyes filled with obscure feelings; I couldn't help but sink in my heart and hung my head down.

Lu Wenzheng stepped forward and finished his salute to the emperor, so he said cautiously: "The Holy Lord summoned Weichen to come, I don't know what to order?" ”

The emperor raised his eyebrows lightly and smiled: "Lu Aiqing, I just heard Ding Aiqing say that Miss Lu has been found, and the thief who kidnapped Miss Lu has also been captured, right?" ”

Lu Wenzheng had no choice but to say: "Yes." ”

"What are Aiqing's plans for this?"

Lu Wenzheng was full of shame, and said with a wry smile: "This kind of unfortunate thing happened, this is all caused by Weichen's lax discipline and lack of teaching, Weichen only feels ashamed, where is there any plan?" Everything is left to the Holy One. ”

The emperor said: "Since this is the case, I will make an order." The sixth day of the Lunar New Year next month is an auspicious day for the zodiac, and the two Aiqing will immediately go back to prepare everything, and then they will hold a feast and raise the city to celebrate the marriage of the second son of Ding and Miss Lu! ”

Lu Wenzheng's face turned pale, and he was stunned for a moment, "But the saint-"

The corners of the emperor's mouth hooked slightly, and his deep gaze turned and said, "What, does Lu Aiqing still have any doubts?" Don't worry, Ding Aiqing reminded me of this matter, he has been looking forward to this happy event for a long time, right, Ding Aiqing? ”

Ding Jinzhi smiled meaningfully: "Exactly." ”

At that moment, Lu Wenzheng only felt that his head was buzzing, and everything around him seemed to be silent......

Lu Wenzheng was so distraught that he returned to the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department in a daze, and told Xu Zhi everything that had just happened.

When Xu Zhi heard this, he couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand and groaned.

Lu Wenzheng's eyebrows were almost twisted into a dead knot, "Mr. Xu, why do you say Ding Jinzhi is doing this?" ”

Xu Zhi sighed: "The student thinks that Ding Jinzhi has bad intentions and must have some ulterior motives. ”

Lu Wenzheng groaned.

Xu Zhi said again: "In the past, the adult killed his eldest son Ding Jiwu, he has always held a grudge and resentment, and he is struggling to find a chance to retaliate. ”

Lu Wenzheng said: "As Mr. said, we can only wait to be killed, watching the autumn moon jump in the fire." ”

Xu Zhi said sadly: "But my lord, we really have no other way?" ”

Lu Wenzheng said miserably: "No." Holy Chrysostom said, who can change his will? Moreover, his will had been given months earlier. ”

Xu Zhi's face was full of sorrow, and he shook his head helplessly, just sighing for a long time.

Lu Wenzheng looked sad and said in a voiced voice: "Qiuyue, Daddy really can't save you this time - this is the will of God, don't resent Daddy!" ”

Hearing this news, Lu Qiuyue felt as if her world had collapsed all of a sudden, and everything around her was like a black fog, enveloping her impenetrably; No matter how desperately she struggled, it didn't help.

She couldn't help but tremble, trying to suppress her pain, her lips trembling a few times, and finally she didn't say a word. She stared blankly ahead, just silently weeping.

Looking at his daughter's almost collapsed appearance, Lu Wenzheng's heart was like a knife; said in a trembling voice: "Qiuyue, Dad knows that this is very unfair to you, but Daddy really has no other way!" ”

"Dad, don't say it." Lu Qiuyue said indifferently: "I can promise you to marry Ding Jiying, but you also have to promise your daughter one condition." ”

"On what terms?"

"Please let Jiang Chun go."

Lu Wenzheng was stunned for a moment, "What if I don't agree?" ”

Lu Qiuyue's cold eyes crossed a resolute death intent, and she said almost word by word: "Then I will die with him!" ”

Lu Wenzheng's eyes trembled violently, "Qiu Yue, are you trying to blackmail your father?" ”

Lu Qiuyue's throat seemed to be choked by something, she didn't say a word, she only felt a sore nose, and her eyes were hot and tears fell like beads.

Lu Wenzheng looked at his daughter's pitiful appearance, his heart throbbed, and he said dumbly: "Okay, Daddy promises you." ”……

In the back garden, the willows and flowers are bright, the birds are singing, and the summer is beautiful.

Lu Qiuyue wandered alone in the back garden of the Lu Mansion, looking at this piece of flying flowers, the green water, and the past was vivid, as if it was yesterday.

She remembered that time, she and Jiang Chun chanted poems to Jing in the garden, vassal elegance, and put "near the cold and rain-eating grass and grass, wheat seedlings and wind grass cherry embankment" and "A good year of the king's must-remember, the most orange, yellow, orange and green time", suddenly wanted to laugh, but couldn't laugh at all.

Faced with this gorgeous and fragrant beauty, she just wanted to cry.

Turning the winding corridor, she saw a person dressed in white, sitting on a stone bench leaning on a small railing, silently looking at the green water under the bridge. Step by step, she stepped forward.

"Brother Ling." She shouted.

Ling Yun slowly turned his face; Lu Qiuyue suddenly found that after not seeing her for many days, Ling Yun was so weak and haggard at this time.

In his black jade-like black eyes, there was almost no emotion visible, as if he had seen through all the vicissitudes of the world, a piece of cold indifference; His face was pale, and even though the bright summer sun had moistened his face a lot, it was still excessively white, without a trace of blood.

"Miss Lu? ......" When Ling Yun saw her, a look of surprise suddenly jumped in his originally dark eyes.

He struggled to his feet, took two steps forward to meet her, and unexpectedly pulled the wound on his body again, only to snort in pain, and his body staggered forward.

Seeing this, Lu Qiuyue hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Ling Yun's crumbling body.

She helped him sit down slowly, with a hint of exploration and confusion in her eyes, and said slowly, "Brother Ling, why did you come here?" You haven't been in the gunma mansion all the time...... Is it? ……”
