Du Wanchun smiled and replied: "I know, I just listened to the vendors talking at the market."
Han Yan'er smiled and said: "Master Lu just wanted to poison us yesterday, and now he is facing something like this. It's really retribution."
Du Wanchun put the things in his hands aside, "I heard from those traders that Master Lu was just taken away, and it was actually Mrs. Lu who caused the death."
Han Yan'er shook her head, "No, it's not Madam Lu. My father went to the palace early this morning to inquire about the news. The lives in the backyard were all caused by Madam Lu."
Du Wanchun paused slightly and pretended to be surprised: "He was responsible for so many lives?"
Han Yan'er nodded, "Yes, it's all him."
As she spoke, she glanced outside the door and continued: "My father said those bones were at least thirty young women."
Du Wanchun listened carefully. ?.?????.???
Han Yan'er had a look of pity on her face, "Judging from the skeletons, the oldest of the women was only eighteen years old, and the youngest was fifteen."
"Mr. Lu had no interest in women at an early age, but he began to study immortality. He once accidentally discovered that drinking the blood of a young woman can make the skin smooth and white hair be covered by black hair. , so they began to raise some young women like this and draw their blood every day until the women died of all their blood and then buried them in the abandoned courtyard."
Although Du Wanchun had known about this for a long time, he still sounded a little angry now.
Such a cruel and ruthless person has actually been an official in the court for so many years.
If it hadn't been discovered this time, we don't know how many people would have died.
Han Yaner was also extremely indignant, "Master Lu refused to admit it when he was arrested. Later, I heard that Ruiyuan found more than a dozen young women he was raising in his house, and he saved the lives of those women. "
"That's good, otherwise if Mr. Lu is acquitted, there will be no justice in this world." Du Wanchun said slowly.
Han Yan'er turned around and picked up Xiao Mianmian, "This way, we will be much safer. At least we don't have to worry about Master Lu coming to poison us again."
Du Wanchun nodded.
Xiao Mianmian frowned and smiled.
There is only one last day left before the three days that the emperor said.
Aunt Zhou and the Third Prince never showed up.
The emperor felt a little disappointed, but he was not in a hurry. He thought that as long as his two sons were by his side, his queen would definitely come back.
He was in a good mood these past two days, and looked much more energetic.
Concubine Li was worried about the queen's safety and visited here several times.
But nothing was asked.
The emperor was also extremely impatient with her. Although he favored her in the past, he now disliked her more.
It seems that no woman in the harem can escape such a fate.
However, Concubine Li didn't care whether she was favored or not, she just wanted to know whether the queen was safe.
This day she came again, holding soup stewed by herself, which the emperor liked to drink.
Seeing that she was so thoughtful, the emperor did not drive her away this time and allowed her to come in and have dinner together.
Li Fei behaved much better this time. She did not ask about the Queen's whereabouts as soon as she entered the house. Instead, she pretended to be considerate and gentle, greeted him and served him soup.
This method was very useful to the emperor, and he liked being so sought after by women.
In the past, Li Fei was always lukewarm towards him, which made him feel itchy.
Now that Li Fei is obedient, he is in a good mood.
Concubine Li took the opportunity to ask: "Your Majesty, I heard that you found the Queen. Where is she now?"
The emperor took a sip of the soup and replied: "She ran away with my third brother, and I don't know where she is now."
Li Fei breathed a sigh of relief.
The emperor became angry when he thought of the third prince, "My third brother is so brave! I must capture him and cut him into pieces."
Concubine Li echoed his words and said, "Your Majesty, what the Third Prince did was indeed treasonous and he deserves to die."
The emperor had never told anyone else about this matter, and Concubine Li was the first.
He was feeling aggrieved and needed someone to talk to.
Hearing what Li Fei said, he immediately said everything at once, "The two of them actually have a child."
Li Fei paused for a moment. The last time she went to Cheng'an County, she only knew that the Queen and the Third Prince were together, but she didn't know that they had a child.
The emperor's face turned green and he drank a few more mouthfuls of soup.
The soup was like wine. He drank it and made him dizzy. "I won't keep those bastards. When I catch them, I will stew that bastard and feed it to my good third brother!"
