The man raised his eyes warily.
"What does the Marquis want to say?"
"It's nothing." He straightened up and lowered his eyes, "I just wanted to ask you if there is a technique that can make people follow me willingly."
Looking at Shen Lie in front of him, the expectation in his eyes made the imprisoned person deeply realize that it was because of the woman.
His dark brown pupils were stained with a hint of smile, and his thick eyebrows spread out. If it weren't for the chains helping his hands and feet, he probably wouldn't have thought that this man was being tortured.
"I didn't expect that the noble young prince would come to beg for a woman he couldn't get with such despicable means!"
Shen Lie's heart was burning, he took the whip and hit him hard.
He gritted his teeth without screaming and spoke again, but the gasp in his voice revealed his pain.
"Little Marquis, what we Yi tribesmen are best at using is magic. There is nothing that can make a woman truly fall in love with you. However, there are many ways that can make her lose her mind and only see you."
When Shen Lie heard this, he asked someone to put him down.
"what's your name?"
"Qin Xuan."
…
On the other side, Di Yin was on the carriage. After much deliberation, he told Lu Wanwan the news he had discovered.
"Do you know who Eunuch Xi Ning is?"
Lu Wanwan recalled it in her mind.
His appearance seemed to be different from that of ordinary people. He had thick eyebrows and brown eyes, his figure was not as tall and straight as that of ordinary people, and he was also capable of many more difficult spells.
After a pause, Lu Wanwan blurted out, "They must be from the Yi tribe, right?"
Di Yin's eyebrows widened: "You are very smart."
"The main thing is that I'm not blind."
Di Yin looked at her sharp teeth and sharp mouth, and suddenly felt relieved.
With such ability, even if he returns to the General's Mansion alone, he won't suffer any loss.
"However, seeing that letter made me very curious. It is getting more and more interesting that Aunt Liu can still be related to the Yi people after so long."
After a while, the carriage arrived in front of the general's mansion.
Before Lu Wanwan could enter, she heard the sounds of Aunt Liu and Lu Yuting playing in the courtyard.
She couldn't help but feel suspicious, and Di Yin frowned when she heard the voice.
Seeing Lu Wanwan step in, she shouted directly into the courtyard: "Aunt Liu and my sister are so lively. They can still have fun so late at night. Their noise is no less than that of famous prostitutes in a brothel."
Aunt Liu and Lu Yuting's smiles disappeared immediately and they looked at her coldly.
"Lu Wanwan, why do you speak so harshly? My mother is your elder after all!"
"My words are unpleasant? Why don't you ask Aunt Liu, which of these two things is more serious, ugly words or killing people?"
She said it in a nonchalant manner, which made Aunt Liu look very ugly.
Hearing the noise, Lu Yan and Mrs. Lu all came out.
Mrs. Lu couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was safe and sound. Mingzhi ran over eagerly and called Miss, surprised and happy.
As a result, when he turned around, he saw Lu Yan standing there with a sullen face.
Lu Wanwan knew it and couldn't stop.
Sure enough, Lu Yan was very displeased and said: "You rebellious girl! Didn't you leave the palace early? Why are you coming back now? Do you know what is being spread in the capital right now!"
"It's said that I behave wildly and uncertainly, or it's said that I'm talkative and confusing, or it's said that I contradicted the Queen and framed Concubine Yun."
Lu Wanwan said it calmly, as if she was not talking about herself.
This attitude made Lu Yan even more angry. He raised his hand to hit someone, "You actually provoked the Queen and Concubine Yun in the palace!"
Someone stopped him just as he raised his hand halfway. Di Yin's intimidating aura made Lu Yan feel a little shorter in an instant. He calmed down and regained his composure on the surface.
"Prince Regent, I was so angry with this rebellious woman that I lost my mind for a moment, and then I lost my bearings. Please don't blame me, Prince Regent."
Di Yin smiled lightly, narrowed his phoenix eyes, and said calmly: "It doesn't matter, I have come to the general's residence not once or twice, and it is not uncommon for General Lu to lose his temper."
Lu Wanwan felt really uncomfortable holding back her laughter.
When Aunt Liu saw someone supporting Lu Wanwan, she said directly: "Prince Regent, you always come to our house. Isn't this inappropriate? We, Wanwan, are about to be betrothed to someone else. If we lose our reputation, what to do?"
Di Yin's eyes instantly darkened.
That murderous gaze seemed to be able to devour people. Aunt Liu was so frightened that she shrank back to Lu Yan and whispered: "It's basically that Wanwan has a bad reputation and no one wants to marry her. It's not easy to find someone." Your young master, hurry up and leave the General's Mansion. Your sister is going to marry into the Marquis Mansion. It's not bad for you to marry someone from a good family. Don't seek a high position."
Everyone in the general's residence also knew that the regent was interested in Lu Wanwan.
Now that Aunt Liu said this, she was naturally not afraid of offending Di Yin.
There was no need for anyone in the palace to deliver a letter to her. From the rumors outside, she knew that Xiling had done an excellent job.
So what if Lu Wanwan knew that he was going to kill her? It's empty talk, but if you have the ability, you can provide evidence.
Mrs. Lu couldn't stand it and retorted: "Liu Yue'er, stop talking nonsense here! Why don't I, the mother-in-law, know who Wanwan is betrothed to? It's your turn to cause trouble here with a dispensable concubine. !”
Mrs. Lu has always been gentle in temperament and rarely speaks harsh words.
Although the tone of these words was not serious, every word hit Liu Yue'er's heart.
The aura that belongs to everyone's ladies is quite intimidating.
"Madam, what you said..."
"Aunt Liu, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it later!"
Di Yin interrupted her and took out a yellow document from his arms, "The Emperor has a decree!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Yue'er could only hold back her words and knelt down with everyone.
"Lu Wanwan, the daughter of General Lu Yan, has outstanding appearance, good conduct, and abilities that are different from ordinary people. She also helped the Queen Mother cure her illness. She will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold and given the position of county lord. She will be given the title of Gaoyang. She will not be polite in front of the emperor. Her Majesty this."
As soon as this imperial edict was announced, everyone was stunned.
Even Lu Wanwan herself didn't expect that she would become the head of Gaoyang County just like that?
However, it is one thing to not expect it, and it is another thing to receive the order.
Here they happily accepted the order, but over there Liu Yue'er and Lu Yuting's expressions turned pale!
Lu Yuting's face turned pale and she said sourly: "Congratulations to my sister. I got the title of County Lord just after entering the palace. I should have known that Yuting would also follow my sister into the palace..."
Liu Yue'er touched Lu Yuting with her arm and told her not to be so obvious.
Then he asked Di Yin: "Prince Regent, does the emperor really want to make Wanwan the head of Gaoyang County?"
Di Yin's eyes were filled with displeasure.
"Do you suspect that the king is falsely passing on the imperial edict?"
"I don't dare, but this... seems to be different from what the outside world has said."
Lu Wanwan tapped her fingers beside her and smiled coolly.
