Lu Jingzhi was horrified: "What do you mean?"
The eldest lady's expression changed and her eyes widened with anger, "Stop talking nonsense! Stop her mouth! Hurry up!"
Lu Mingwan moved a little, and Duke Rong shouted: "Stop!"
Shen Lansui glanced at them and sneered: "It seems that the second young master doesn't know anything yet, so I'll tell you."
Lu Mingchao closed his eyes, tears sliding down the ends of his eyes into his temples.
"When I married into the Duke's Mansion, why was there a man in the bridal chamber? Do you really think he was an assassin? No, he was bribed to elope with me. When we leave the Duke's Mansion, he will kill I went to find someone to collect the reward, but unfortunately I didn't want to go with him, so he had evil thoughts and wanted to kill me, but unfortunately I was prepared and killed him first."
Shen Lansui's eyes fell on the gray Lu Mingchao in the corner, and he smiled lowly, "Just because the eldest son met me by chance and had the idea of marrying me, he told the eldest lady, but the eldest lady disagreed and couldn't She accepted it, feeling that my status was low and not worthy of the eldest son, but the eldest son persisted and resisted her for the first time. She felt that her authority was being challenged, and she felt that I had instigated her good son, so she hated me with all her heart."
Lu Jingzhi couldn't accept it and retreated again and again. He tripped and accidentally fell on the railing.
"It happened that Sanlang came back from serious injury and was unconscious. The eldest lady had the idea of making me happy and wanted to completely cut off the idea of the eldest young master. However, she was afraid that Sanlang was gone and the eldest young master would do something bad under the same roof. It's a problem, so I plan to eradicate it."
"Stop talking..." The veins on Duke Rong's forehead throbbed and he couldn't help but press his eyebrows.
"Why don't you say it?" Shen Lansui asked back: "I have endured it for a long time. If Sanlang hadn't been vigilant today, it would have been Sanlang who was inside at this time. You are happy to have killed two women at once? Are you so aggressive? For my own sake, you don’t even let me say anything? There is no such truth in this world!”
She ignored Rong Guogong's ugly face and said coldly: "I know you want to whitewash the peace, and the family is living in a muddle, but I'm sorry, I can't tolerate sand in my eyes. I am the victim, and no one has the right to demand anything from me. Shut up."
She raised her hand and pointed at the eldest lady, saying disgustedly: "When I die, she can naturally put the hat on Sanlang's head and once again confirm the rumors that he suppressed his wife. With this calculation, he became the best accountant in Yangdu." We are all ashamed!”
After the words fell, Lu Jingzhi completely fell to the railing, looking distracted, "How...how could...why?"
Lu Mingwan looked down at the eldest lady stiffly, "Mom? What she said...is it true?"
Duke Rong Guo took a deep breath and swayed. Lu Xingyue gave him a hand. Duke Rong Guo opened his eyes and looked at him. After a moment, he wailed, held his hand, and gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sorry for you, dad." ——”
"Dad, I'm sorry for you!"
His tall body seemed to be crushed in an instant.
Shen Lansui sighed, "Now that everything that needs to be said has been said, it's up to you to decide what to do. We can't just let this matter go."
Lu Mingchao slowly straightened up and asked in a low voice: "How is Mengli?"
Shen Lansui glanced at him, "The medicine has been cured, but she is not in a good mood."
"I'll go see her."
After speaking, without waiting for anyone's reaction, Lu Mingchao opened the door of Nuange.
The eldest lady suddenly got up and grabbed Lu Mingchao's hand, "No, you can't marry her! I'm your mother, you can't do this to me! What I did is for your own good. Anyone can blame me, but you no!"
Her eyes were red and she looked like she was crazy.
Lu Mingchao looked at her, feeling distressed and extremely disappointed.
He slowly opened her hand, shook his head and said: "You are not doing it for my own good, you are just doing it to satisfy your own selfish interests."
The eldest lady took a step back in a daze, her long eyelashes trembling, and suddenly she screamed and fainted.
"Mother!" Lu Mingwan hurriedly stepped forward to catch her. He looked at Duke Rong, but was speechless.
Now that things have come to this, what can be said?
Duke Rong was silent for a while, and finally pushed Lu Xingyue away and stood up.
He looked at Shen Lansui and finally lowered his head, "We are sorry for you, but I can't give you any more explanation for this matter."
Shen Lansui frowned, and Rong Guogong thought to himself: "It's not that I favor her, she did these heinous things, which also made me completely give up, but..."
He looked at Lu Mingwan, then at Lu Xingyue, and said in a trembling voice: "I am not only a husband, but also a father. I have to think about them. Daheng Law does not allow children to sue their parents and elders. If they sue, Regardless of whether your parents will be convicted or not, you will be punished first."
Shen Lansui was startled and looked at Lu Xingyue.
Lu Xingyue nodded, "The Daheng Law stipulates that children and grandchildren who accuse their parents and grandparents will be punished with a hundred sticks and three years in prison. Those who make false accusations will be hanged (1)."
Shen Lansui suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Lu Xingyue didn't encourage her to sue the eldest lady.
"That's right, if you really go and file a lawsuit, Lan Sui, you will be the first to suffer!" Rong Guogong looked at her helplessly, "By then, if we travel across the country, our career tomorrow and tomorrow will be affected. , even Jing Zhi’s marriage is a problem, I’m not forcing you, but can you really bear it?”
Shen Lansui remained silent.
Of course she couldn't bear it.
Needless to say, Lu Xingyue's friendship for her was that he even handed back the death-free gold medal for her. He had paid for his position as the envoy of Beizhen with his life. If he lost it because of her, she would not be able to accept it.
And no matter what happens to Lu Mingchao and Lu Mingwan, Lu Jingzhi is innocent. She is only fifteen, and her good life has just begun. If she is involved, it will be difficult for her to marry into a good family in the future.
Shen Lansui clenched her hands, "Then what do you think we should do? Just let the eldest lady go like this? She not only harmed me, but also Saburo and Mengli, how can we just settle the matter like this?"
Duke Rong Guo glanced at the unconscious eldest lady, and there was no trace of pity in his eyes. He was silent for a long time and whispered: "As a mistress, the eldest lady is unkind and has bad moral character. From now on, she is banned from Lanxin Hospital and is not allowed to go out. , the number is reduced by half, and no one is allowed to visit.”
He paused and said: "As for the stewardship, leave it to Lan Sui——"
"No need."
Lu Xingyue suddenly spoke. He stepped forward, held Shen Lansui's hand and said, "Lansui and I are moving out."
"What?"
Duke Rong Guo was stunned, "Move out? Move to where?"
"Although it is the custom of this dynasty that parents should not separate when they are together, there are also special circumstances. Now, it is obviously not suitable for us to live under the same roof. I am not from the Duke's mansion. I should move out after getting married. But The Marquis Mansion has never been put in order, and it is not completely completed until today.”
Lu Xingyue glanced at Shen Lansui and said, "From now on, we will live in the Marquis Mansion of Mingying. You are the mistress of the Marquis Mansion, and that is our home."
Duke Rong Guo looked gloomy, "Have you been preparing for this for a long time?"
