Chapter 81: Slap Him in the Face
Seeing that she shook her mind as if she had been struck by lightning, she grabbed Zelan with one hand, and after barely stabilizing her body, she looked at the nursing home that came to pass through.
"You just said, who's back?"
The nurse replied loudly: "It's the third master!" Third lady, third master, he is not dead! ā
When the words fell, I saw a tall figure slowly walking in from outside the courtyard.
The man was dressed in gray cloth, unkempt, as if he had suffered a lot.
But his face is as round as yesterday, and his hands are even cleaner.
Seeing this, Shen Lingyu couldn't help but want to laugh.
Pei Lanzhi is really stupid, and he doesn't know how to do a full set of plays, so it can be seen that today's play really scared him.
However, if he really thought that he would be able to fool the past easily, he would be very mistaken.
Shen Lingyu strode forward and stared at Pei Lanzhi's face in a daze, as if he didn't know it at all.
Pei Lanzhi endured malice, pretended to be jerky, rubbed his hands and smirked at Shen Lingyu.
"Ma'am, IāI'm back......"
As he spoke, he stepped forward to hug her.
Unexpectedly, before he touched her, he was slapped by her first.
Pei Lanzhi's face changed instantly, "Shen Lingyu, what do you mean!" ā
Mrs. Pei also stepped forward to protect her and said: "The third daughter-in-law, it is a happy event that the third child can come back, you can't help but say what you did to beat him!" ā
Shen Lingyu pretended to be frightened, pointed at Pei Lanzhi's trembling voice and asked, "You, are you a human or a ghost?" Didn't my husband die on the battlefield a long time ago? ā
Pei Lanzhi touched his nose and prevaricated: "This matter is a long story, I passed out on the battlefield at the time, and my armor was worn by a small soldier, and after that, I was rescued by a poor family, and I recuperated there for two months before I recovered, and as soon as the injury was healed, I rushed back non-stop......"
Shen Lingyu listened quietly, sneering in his heart, but with a sad look on his face, he jumped up and hugged him in two steps and cried.
"Husband, I really didn't expect you and me to see each other in this life, God bless!"
Pei Lanzhi hugged her in embarrassment, his eyes unconsciously fell on Ye Wanran, and when he saw her scarlet eyes glaring at him indignantly, he couldn't help but show a touch of shame on his face.
But he can't help it, he can't really risk his life to go to the Zhenbei Wangfu Courtyard to serve the sick......
On the ground, Ye Wanran looked at the charred corpse, and then at Pei Lanzhi, her hands clenched, almost biting her silver teeth.
Overnight, Pei Erye's general's mansion was buried in flames, and the news of Pei Sanye, who had already died in battle, suddenly returned to the mansion soon spread throughout Shengjing City.
The people of Beijing found it incredible.
However, the facts are in front of them, and they can't believe it.
After Lu Fangting received the letter, the hand holding the chess game paused.
His eyes drooped, and he couldn't help but think of Shen Lingyu's request for him that day.
"My situation in the General's Mansion is not good, my second sister-in-law is-for-tat with me everywhere, but it is just that I have no support, if she has no support, she will definitely be restrained in the future."
He misunderstood what she meant at the time, and thought that she wanted him to find someone to kill Pei Erye, but he didn't want to ask Pei Erye to come to the house to serve the sick.
"I still know a little bit about the temperament of the second brother, since the First World War in the Northern Desert, for some reason, he suddenly became greedy for life and afraid of death, and a little wind and grass can scare him into a hitch."
"Even if he had smallpox when he was young, he would never risk his life, and he would definitely think of leaving the mansion to avoid the limelight for a while, as long as he is gone, I can let the general's mansion change the sky."
At that time, he didn't think too much about it, and only out of selfishness to help her did he agree to her request.
But he didn't want to, this general's mansion was far more complicated than he imagined.
In the battle with the Northern Desert, the Pei family army suffered heavy casualties.
How could Pei Sanye, who was already dead, be resurrected?
It's so coincidental that after Pei Erye was buried in the fire, he came back.
If there is no secret in it, he will not believe.
But it should be a good thing for her, right?
After all, from now on, she will have something to rely on in the General's Mansion.
Thinking of this, Lu Fangting smiled faintly and bitterly.
What to do, he suddenly regretted helping her.
If he can't give her what she wants, then the only thing he can do is to fulfill it.
Under the same sky, Xie Yunzhou naturally received the same news.
Pei Lan's death and resurrection were told to him in a hurry early in the morning.
He has been very sick for the past few days, and he doesn't know the years, and he has barely recovered some energy after a few days of recuperation.
I thought that he had just woken up and let him hear such an unfortunate thing.
Zhu Wei only said: "I see that your previous guess was true, only Pei Lanzhi survived from beginning to end, he replaced his brother on the battlefield and became the second master of the General's Mansion, he thought that he could disguise his life without being known, but Lu Shizi suddenly invited him to serve in the mansion, and he couldn't refuse, so he played another trick of the golden cicada out of the shell." ā
Xie Yunzhou snorted coldly when he heard this, "This person's cleverness is all used for this kind of thing." ā
Zhu Wei thought about it, peeked at his face, and hesitated to continue.
"I heard that the third lady was very excited last night, although they are husband and wife in name, but if she knew that the person she kept calling the second brother before was her father-in-law, how could she bear it?"
Xie Yunzhou glanced at him, and his voice was extremely indifferent.
"You underestimate Shen Lingyu too much, I'm afraid this matter is her handiwork."
"How do you know?" I wish you a surprise.
Xie Yunzhou squinted and sneered.
"Lu Fangting's father was born on the border of Dongsheng, and his physique is far superior to others, not to mention that the plague is now circulating in the city, how could he be infected with smallpox."
"Not to mention that this poison has disappeared in Dongsheng for more than ten years, even if it is really infected, Lu Fangting will not be able to avoid it every day, but do you think he has a little sign of discomfort?"
"Moreover, the second young master of the Pei family suffered from smallpox when he was a child, and the General's Mansion was extremely secretive, and only a few people in Beijing knew about it, Lu Fangting was not familiar with the personnel of Shengjing when he first arrived in Shengjing, except for the people inside the General's Mansion, who would tell him this secret?"
Zhu Wei was stunned when he heard it.
"You mean to say that this is a trap that Shen Lingyu designed early on, just waiting for Pei Lanzhi to jump inside?"
Xie Yunzhou nodded noncommittally.
The person who was infected with smallpox was Pei Lanqing, not Pei Lanzhi.
Pei Lanzhi pretended to be his brother and became the second young master of the General's Mansion, if he agreed to serve the sick, then his life would be in danger.
If you don't agree, you may offend Lu Fangting.
Pei Lanzhi was afraid that he was in a dilemma, so he came up with such an outrageous and clumsy strategy.
But in any case, this hurdle allowed him to pass it safely.
What about Shen Lingyu?
She deliberately set such a trap for Pei Lanzhi, what was the purpose?
Xie Yunzhou twisted his eyebrows and couldn't understand, and as soon as he bothered, he couldn't stop coughing.
Zhu Wei hurriedly stepped forward and handed over a cup of tea.
"You better take care of it, don't think so much about things you shouldn't worry about."
Xie Yunzhou grabbed his wrist and said, "You go and bring a letter to Shen Lingyu and ask her to come over to see me tonight." ā
Zhu Weiran, "Have you thought clearly?" Now is different from the past, she is no longer a widow who has lost her husband, if someone finds out about your relationship with her, Pei Lanzhi will definitely kill her! ā
