No wonder the emperor was afraid of the queen. Such a clear threat would be fatal to any emperor.
The queen put all the problems on Xiao Fuzi. Xiao Fuzi could not escape death, and the young eunuch who came to complain was also sent to the Criminal Punishment Department.
The queen was grounded for half a month because of her inability to supervise her slaves.
Although she was wrongly accused, the emperor also punished Lu Wanwan for the items that contained witchcraft on her body.
Lu Wanwan was asked to copy Buddhist scriptures three times.
If you mention such a punishment, the people below will have something to talk about.
"Isn't it obvious that the Emperor is partial to Miss Lu?"
"Hey, don't talk nonsense. After two days in the palace, anyone who offends her will have a bad end. Why don't you give it a try?"
The little palace maid waved her hands after hearing this.
"...No, I still want to live."
It wasn't that the people in the palace were gossiping. Lu Wanwan recalled that three slaves had already been sent to the punishment department in the two days since she entered the palace.
Although the other two are not capital crimes, in a place like the Sentence Department, you have to peel off your skin and come back.
Of course, there are also Concubine Yun and the Queen.
Seeing that the two more noble women in the harem were defeated by Lu Wanwan, the others did not dare to step forward easily even if they had complaints.
In the afternoon, Lu Wanwan left the palace after eating.
Di Yin had been waiting outside the palace gate early. Seeing the golden mahogany carriage, Lu Wanwan suddenly remembered the scene of sending her back to the General's Mansion that day.
She didn't want to cause any more trouble at the entrance of the palace, so she pretended not to notice and just passed by.
Di Yin was sitting in the carriage with his eyes closed to rest, when he heard Yin Yi's rather embarrassed words:
"Your Majesty, Miss Lu seems to have gone back by herself."
He suddenly opened his eyes, his deep eyes full of teasing.
It's fine in the palace, but you don't recognize anyone when you leave the palace?
Well, Lu Wanwan, you have learned how to burn bridges across rivers.
Di Yin rubbed his forehead and raised a slight smile at the corner of his mouth.
"What are you still standing there for? When Miss Lu returns home, I must have sent her back to you."
Di Yin did have some selfish motives. Hearing that Lu Wanwan had entered the palace in the past few days, Liu Xiangyi went everywhere to inquire about her.
It has already spread among the people that the young master of the Prime Minister's Mansion is so eager to follow the beauty.
How can you let others take the lead?
Lu Wanwan walked in a hurry and deliberately searched for a small road, betting that his carriage would not be able to get in.
But when they came to the corner, they saw an old man beating and scolding the mother-in-law.
Lu Wanwan paused in her steps. She wanted to pretend she didn't see him pass by him, but she never thought that the old man would not give up easily.
He looked around her with a pair of cloudy eyes, and when he saw that she was either rich or noble, he shouted: "Stop!"
Lu Wanwan walked faster.
Who knew that the old man was not a good man? He chased after her with a stick and blocked Lu Wanwan's path.
The sharp-eyed Lu Wanwan noticed the amulet on his body.
"Girl, since we are destined to meet each other today, why not accompany me for a while and have a good time? Look at her appearance, she is really charming."
Lu Wanwan frowned, avoided the dirty hand he extended, and stared at him in disgust.
Instead of feeling restrained, the old guy became even more excited.
"Hey, look, this beauty looks different. She even looks so good when she's angry."
Immediately afterwards, his hands were about to reach her waist.
With quick eyes and quick hands, Lu Wanwan grabbed it and then folded it hard. There was a "click" and a sharp pain instantly shot through the man's hand.
"Ah - you little girl, you didn't expect to have two brushes!"
Lu Wanwan used force again and said harshly: "Keep your mouth clean. I don't mind removing all the parts from your body."
The old man's calm tone sounded as relaxed as if he was talking about what he had eaten today.
Cold sweat broke out on his back, and he didn't know whether it was pain or fear.
At this time, the woman who had just been beaten stood up, covered in blood, and laughed crazily: "Okay, okay, you old man will still be here today!"
Her hair covered half of her face, and Lu Wanwan couldn't see her face clearly.
But there was hatred in this woman.
Facing Lu Wanwan's confused gaze, the woman said bluntly: "Xia Xiang, please don't show mercy. This old man specializes in beating women. Whenever he sees a woman alone at home, he will come and bully her. She deserves to die!" "
Lu Wanwan has seen perverts, but such perverts are unheard of.
Breaking into other people's homes and committing evil acts, where does this place the laws of heaven and kings?
Lu Wanwan became angry after hearing this, so she simply used more force on her hands, causing the old man to roll on the ground in pain.
She found a piece of clothing and tied him up in three strokes.
Looking at the poor woman, he took out the silver again.
"Girl, take the money to treat the disease, don't worry about this old man, he will be rewarded naturally."
The woman didn't know why and heard Lu Wanwan speak again.
"I wanted to send him to see the official, but looking at his face, he will die tonight."
The woman couldn't help but shrink her pupils, and asked with a trembling body: "This girl, will you... look at her?"
"You know a little bit."
The woman knelt down with a "plop" and cried, "May I ask where you learned from me? Have you ever met my husband? Her name is Li Ziheng."
Lu Wanwan searched around in her head and had no impression of the name.
"Your husband went up the mountain to learn magic?"
"My husband went to Wumen Mountain six months ago and has not come back yet. I wrote to him, but nothing was found. They said that my husband is dead, but I don't believe it."
Lu Wanwan was thinking about Wumen Mountain secretly in her heart, and shook her head: "Your husband and I are not in the same place, but as far as I know, Wumen Mountain is a long way away, and it's far outside the capital. There is a Taoist temple that is closer, so why do you want to stay here? Going far away?"
"Everything happens for a reason. My husband went to work in the farm those few days, and there were other people who went with him. That person seemed to have mentioned Wumen Mountain, saying it was very accurate, and said that the most profitable people now are the charlatans. , ask my husband to go too."
"As soon as my husband heard about making money, he immediately became interested. I tried to persuade him, but he seemed to be obsessed and couldn't listen to anything he said. I've been gone for half a year and there is no news at all."
Lu Wanwan approached the woman and could barely see her face.
Sunken cheeks are the fate of a deceased husband.
I'm afraid her husband is no longer alive.
Lu Wanwan did not say anything, fearing that the woman would not be able to bear the blow for a while, so she said: "Don't be anxious, but tell me what those people said about Wumen Mountain. I know a little bit about it, maybe I can help. Your favor."
The woman was overjoyed and said, "Girl, if you don't mind, please come with me into the house."
Lu Wanwan shook her head gently: "No need."
At this time, three men suddenly came out of the room and surrounded Lu Wanwan aggressively.
