Faced with Lu Zhizhang's instructions, Shen Fanghui naturally only responded in a low voice.
When Lu Zhizhang got the news he wanted, he also signaled Shen Fanghui to get out quickly.
Shen Fanghui naturally just cooperated at the moment, and she even closed the door carefully before leaving.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked out, Zhu Zanxun was staring at her silently outside the door. Shen Fanghui was startled for a moment, and thinking about her conversation with Lu Zhizhang, Shen Fanghui felt guilty.
After all, Lu Zhizhang just asked him to monitor the affairs of Zhu Zanxun's family. If he knew what he was doing, she would probably not end well.
At a certain moment, Shen Fanghui even felt that Zhu Zanxun actually knew what he was going to do.
And Zhu Zanxun saw that Shen Fanghui had been cautious since entering, and now his face was full of panic. He knew that the relationship between Shen Fanghui and his cousin was definitely not as simple as it seemed, so he just took the initiative to ask Shen Fanghui. "Hui Niang, what's wrong with you?"
Shen Fanghui shook her head and said, "Nothing."
However, Zhu Zanxun naturally couldn't believe Shen Fanghui's words, so he just took the initiative to say to Shen Fanghui, "Hui Niang, but Lord Lu just scolded you?"
Hearing Zhu Zanxun's words, Shen Fanghui immediately glanced at Zhu Zanxun in fear, "What did you hear?"
Although Zhu Zanxun didn't understand why Shen Fanghui made such a fuss, he still told the truth.
"I didn't hear anything. You were talking to your cousin. If I went to eavesdrop, I wouldn't be a villain. So I wouldn't do such a thing. I just watched you from meeting your cousin. You were cautious when you were young, but now you are dejected and frightened when you come out, so I think you must have been scolded by your cousin."
After hesitating for a moment, Zhu Zanxun, who was never good at expressing his emotions, just said awkwardly in a low voice, "Fang Hui, I'm just worried about you."
After hearing Zhu Zanxun's words, Shen Fanghui breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't hear anything, and it was fine if he didn't hear anything.
But he could see something was wrong in his own eyes, so it seemed that he had to be more careful with his behavior from now on, otherwise if he saw something was wrong with her, she would be very embarrassed.
And she was just thinking this, but soon she discovered that there was a line of sight silently watching her.
After being stared at by the other party, Shen Fanghui felt frightened, and following her gaze, she saw Lu Zhizhang standing at the window, staring deathly at her. As soon as Shen Fanghui came into contact with his gaze, Shen Fanghui couldn't help but She lowered her gaze, not daring to say anything more.
"Master Zhu, I understand. Thank you for your concern. But I really have nothing to do. My cousin also treats me very well. Otherwise, he would not have to personally ask about my marriage, let alone take the initiative to attend my wedding. , although the old lady is alone, she still has many cousins. I am not very close to him, and I am not afraid of your jokes. Although my cousin is very good to me, I always feel that he He is very majestic, and I am somewhat afraid of him." Shen Fanghui then explained in a low voice again. .five
After hearing Shen Fanghui's words, the eldest young master of the Zhu family finally said in a low voice, "That's right. Mr. Lu Marquis does look very majestic. If that's all you are, I'll be relieved."
Seeing that Zhu Zanxun didn't think much, Shen Fanghui breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said to Zhu Zanxun, "Master Zhu, why don't we leave here first? The day after tomorrow is our wedding. There are still a lot of things that need to be done.”
Hearing Shen Fanghui's words, Zhu Zanxun naturally nodded.
"That's what you said. In that case, let's leave immediately." Zhu Zanxun just took the initiative to suggest.
Shen Fanghui naturally would not refuse the other party's proposal.
Then the two people left the courtyard of the post house one after another. After Lu Zhizhang watched the two people leave, he also said to Zhang Qing behind him, "Zhang Qing, go and find out what the Zhu family is like." How about governing in this Yunzhou!"
Facing his master's instructions, Zhang Qing did not dare to neglect
.
"Yes! I take my orders."
After the words fell, the young man who had been silent since then quickly disappeared into the post house.
On the other side, Zhu Yuewu reluctantly came to his father's side.
At this time, he had already figured out why his father was not with Mr. Lu.
It turned out that the other party was unwell, so he asked his eldest brother to accompany him. However, even if he knew the whole story, he was still very unhappy. After all, if the other party did not arrange such a task for him, then the person who pleased the other party in front of Lu Zhizhang today would Maybe it's myself.
But on the other hand, he actually thought of Lu Zhizhang's attitude towards him, which was so lukewarm. He thought that his good brother and his uncles must have said a lot of bad things about him, so that was why Lord Lu treated him so well. With such a bad attitude and aggrieved mind, Zhu Yuewu stepped into his father's house.
He originally thought that the other party must be lying on the bed, otherwise an imperial doctor would have checked his pulse.
Unexpectedly, his father was sitting in the study outside the bedroom at this time, and his father was not the only one in the study. The few staff who usually gave advice to his father were also in this room.
Although Zhu Yuewu was a little unhappy, he did not dare to show it in front of anyone, so after entering, he put away the anger on his face.
Moreover, these people are gathered together now. I am afraid that something very important will happen today.
Thinking of this, he immediately bowed and said, "Dad, my son is here."
Then he only handed over to a few other staff members. When those people saw Zhu Yuewu saluting him, they naturally just returned the salute.
Instead, after he came in, Zhu Izhi asked him with all his face, "How was it? Did you accomplish what I asked you to do?"
Facing his father's questions, Zhu Yuewu was still a little at a loss for the moment.
But after hesitating, he finally told the truth about the facts he faced. After all, even if he wanted to pretend that he had caught those people, he had no one on hand and couldn't make a difference.
So thinking of this, he just said truthfully, "Replying to my father, my son has not been able to accomplish this. Those people are too cunning."
Upon hearing Zhu Yuewu's words, Zhu Izhi, who was already unhappy, suddenly threw an inkstone in his hand in the direction of Zhu Yuewu.
Zhu Yuewu naturally saw the piece of inkstone, but he did not dare to dodge in front of his father, so at the moment he just let the inkstone hit his forehead.
The blood flowed down across his forehead. At that moment, Zhu Yuewu just lowered his head and clenched his fists bitterly. In front of his father, he did not dare to show too many emotions.
And Zhu Iuzhi obviously didn't feel sorry for his son. Seeing the gloomy look of the other party lowering his head, he couldn't help but cursed, "What a waste. If you don't do it, it won't be done. Why do you have so many excuses? I really don't know what I want from you, a waste. Why did I get angry in the first place?" You are such a loser, you and your mother are both as useless!"
Hearing Zhu Izhi's words, Zhu Yuewu wanted to talk back, but he didn't dare. He had suffered too much humiliation since childhood. If he talked back, he would definitely lose everything.
A small leak will sink a great ship.
He took a deep breath, then bent down and picked up the inkstone that was thrown away by his father on the ground. At the same time, he bowed close to his father again and said, "Dad, it's my son who did something bad. Please don't do it." If you are angry, it will not be good if you are so angry that your body is damaged."
As he spoke, he only bowed and offered the inkstone in his hands.
Zhu Iuzhi did not accept the inkstone, and although the staff also supported Zhu Yuewu, in this tense situation, no one of them dared to say a word. After all, the father and son were not easy to deal with.
This man is moody, if they help me they shouldn't. The other party will definitely count them in.
And if you help the younger ones, you won't be able to get any favors. Zhu Iizhi is a very thoughtful person. And he has a very high self-esteem. Now that they see him in such a mess, I'm afraid
Fang was already resenting himself.
If they went over to say a word to each other again, I'm afraid the other party would feel that they were humiliating him. Therefore, under a feeling of uneasiness, everyone just lowered their heads and did not dare to look up to see the contest between the father and son. .
When Zhu Yuewu saw that his father still ignored him, he couldn't help but whisper, "Father, although I didn't catch the person I wanted to catch last night, my son has locked the specific location of their escape after chasing them all night. Now. My son has arranged for people to search door to door there, and I believe there will be good news soon."
After hearing Zhu Yuewu's words, Zhu Izhi's expression softened a lot.
"If that's the case, then why don't you just stay where you are and bring people here directly." Zhu Ibiszhi only took the initiative to ask.
The question he asked was naturally nonsense. If Zhu Yuewu had stayed where he was at that time, he might not even be able to meet Lu Zhizhang today. He never believed that his father could introduce him to him.
But Zhu Yuewu couldn't tell the truth what he was thinking, otherwise he would not know how he would be criticized according to the virtue of such a good father.
So after thinking about it for a while, Zhu Yuewu gave his own answer.
"Father, the son really wanted to wait until he found the other party before telling his father, but the son received an order saying that there was an ambush at the inn. The son was afraid that something would go wrong, so he came over in a hurry. After all, the son was responsible for this matter, and the person staying today was It’s Mr. Lu, it would be bad if something goes wrong.”
Unexpectedly, after he finished speaking, Zhu Izhi suddenly muttered to himself in a low voice, "It would be better if something happened."
"Father, what are you talking about?"
