Doting on concubines and destroying wives?I am no longer the mistress of Houmen!

Chapter 261

Qi Lingheng wore the prince's uniform and went to the prison in person to interrogate Lu Zhengliu.

Lu Zhengliu looked up at the noble King Huan. His eyes were dull and he didn't know what to say.

Qi Lingheng was also very indifferent and ordered: "Exercise torture."

"Yes!"

A series of screams came out from the prison, making people feel numb.

Qi Lingheng was drinking tea outside.

It snowed heavily in the twelfth lunar month, the affairs of Wudinghou Mansion were settled, and the news spread throughout the streets and alleys.

"Have you heard that Lu Zhengliu committed suicide in prison?"

"Isn't that what he deserves? Such a big business was ruined in his hands."

"Fortunately, the prince is kind and generous, sparing the eldest son of the Lu family from being implicated and not depriving him of the qualifications for the imperial examination."

"Where is the concubine from the Lu family?"

"You don't know? I've been sentenced to death and will be executed after next autumn. Together with the old mother in the house, I killed the old lady of the Lu family. The evidence is irrefutable. Can she still escape?"

Two people from the Lu family died at once.

"The Lu family should be filled with white lanterns now, right?"

"Of course."

The plaque for the Wuding Marquis Mansion is no longer there, and the Lu family is now in a state of chaos, not even a new plaque has been hung up.

There were either white lanterns or white flags at the door, and a few servants were wearing sackcloth and mourning.

Seeing that no guests came to express their condolences, Qiao Da shook his head, closed the door, walked to the mourning hall, and said to Lu Changgong, "Young Master, no one is coming."

Lu Changgong burned paper in front of the mourning hall.

Lu Zhengliu committed suicide, and there was not even a whole body. What was placed in the coffin were the clothes Lu Zhengliu usually wore.

Lu Changgong said: "No hurry. Just wait."

Qiao Da nodded: "Then I'll go out and wait."

As expected, he waited. Mrs. Wei came back with the crazy Marquis. Seeing the ruin of the house, the couple killed each other in front of the stone lion in front of the door.

The coffin of Wudinghou Mansion finally contained a real person.

"Qiao Da, go and report the funeral."

Lu Changgong was holding paper money in his hand and his eyes were very red. This thin young man was responsible for the funeral affairs of the entire mansion. Who wouldn't feel sad to see him?

Qiao Da wiped away tears: "Yes, let's go now."

After Wu Dinghou and his wife passed away, people from the Lu family came one after another to express their condolences.

Mrs. Xia came over with her children and grandchildren, and Xia Jin supported her. After coming out of the Lu family, everyone felt heavy.

Mrs. Xia said: "...Don't learn from Lu Zhengliu, who spoiled his concubine and killed his wife. What has become of a good family!"

Xia Jin glanced at his sister-in-law Lu Jia next to him and whispered, "My sister-in-law is still here."

Mrs. Xia snorted coldly, and then said: "The adopted son of the Lu family is really good. At such a young age, he can understand the general situation so well."

Xia Jin also admired Lu Changgong very much.

Mrs. Xia sighed: "It's not Lin...she is well-educated. There are no bad girls from the Lin family."

Xia Jin lowered his head and thought of Jiang Qian's days as a student.

yes.There is nothing bad about it.

Mrs. Xia mentioned Xia Jin's marriage and said with a smile: "After you finish the general examination, it's time to meet the third wife of the Lin family."

Xia Jin nodded. At an age, it's time for men to marry and women to marry.

Lin Mansion.

Mrs. Lin and Lin Yunyi said: "...let's go burn some paper money for Mr. Lu and Mr. Wei!"

Lin Yunyi didn't want to go at first, but after thinking about it, he said, "Okay, I'll go take a look at the long bow."

The mother and son went together anyway.

Seeing Lu Changgong and the few remaining people in the house guarding in front of the mourning hall, Lin Yunyi went over to talk to Lu Changgong.

When they arrived at the side hall, Lu Changgong smiled lightly and bowed: "Uncle."

There is no sadness at all.

What happened to the Lu family was the result he wanted.

Lin Yunyi paused and said, "But in this case, it will be more difficult for you to become an official and marry a wife in the future than for others."

No matter how bad the Wuding Marquis Mansion is, it would be more dignified if it remains empty.

Lu Changgong didn't pay much attention to this. He still had the intention to joke: "Isn't my uncle also taking the exam at the age of [-], and he hasn't married yet?"

"you……"

When it came to marriage, Lin Yunyi had a headache. He rolled his sleeves and said, "I won't tell you, it's up to you."

"Thank you uncle."

Lu Changgong smiled slightly.

Lin Yunyi couldn't say too much. The Lu family had fallen after all, and Lu Changgong still had a long way to go in the future.

He patted Changgong's shoulder and said, "If you have any difficulties in the future, just come to see my uncle. It's my eldest sister—"

I won't sit back and ignore it.

Lu Changgong smiled and said, "Okay."

Lin Yunyi nodded and went back with Mrs. Lin.

Mrs. Lin is a woman, and she thinks about things in the inner house. She is very worried: "From now on, the Lu family's inner house will rely on an aunt, and the child of Chang Gong is too difficult."

Lin Yunyi took the opportunity to say: "So when you want a wife, you must marry someone who is smart and can run the family."

Mrs. Lin actually didn't refute.

At the end of the year, the emperor was about to seal the seal for the New Year. Lin Yunwan and Qi Lingheng took Qi Zaijun into the palace to pay New Year greetings to the emperor and queen.

However, at the palace banquet, the prince was not seen, only the princess.

The Crown Princess put on makeup, but it was still obvious that her face looked very bad.

"Why didn't the prince come?"

A princess from the county went to ask the princess.

The Crown Princess smiled bitterly: "The Crown Prince... is not feeling well. He can't come out."

The princess had some idea and said politely: "The princess and I will visit the prince another day."

"No need."

The Crown Princess actually refused directly, and the other party did not ask further questions and retreated in embarrassment.

Lin Yunwan went over to say hello and asked directly: "Is His Highness to the point where you can't leave the house?"

The princess was surprised when she heard the sound.

She returned the gift and said helplessly: "...I can't eat anymore. The prince won't let me tell anyone."

Lin Yunwan's heart sank.

No wonder the emperor seemed to be in such a heavy mood. Qi Zaijun went to tease him, but it was of no use.

The Crown Princess suddenly burst into tears, took Lin Yunwan's hand, and explained in panic: "Seventh brother and sister, the prince is confused, I'm sorry to you and the seventh brother. I, I can't help myself, I have to help the prince."

Lin Yunwan pushed the Crown Princess's hand away and asked calmly: "What does the Crown Princess want me to do?"

The princess wiped her tears with a handkerchief. She knew it was embarrassing, but she couldn't help but said: "The prince likes the young prince very much. The prince and I have no heirs in our lives. Can Prince Jun go and accompany the prince?"

Lin Yunwan thought for a while and said, "That depends on Jun'er's own thoughts. Princess, I can't decide for the prince."

To the Crown Princess, this sounded like a polite refusal.

Too……

She allowed the prince to do such bastard things, and it was strange that Prince Huan and his wife could agree to their request.

"Princess, take your leave."

Lin Yunwan was happy and went to find Qi Lingheng.

Qi Lingheng had already seen them talking. He held Lin Yunwan's hand tightly and asked in a low voice, "What did the Crown Princess tell you?"

Lin Yunwan smiled softly: "My lord, don't be nervous. This is in the palace, and the princess doesn't dare to do anything to me." She paused, and then said: "The princess won't do anything to me now."

"why?"

Lin Yunwan told Qi Lingheng: "The prince's deadline is coming soon."

She looked at Emperor Jingshun on the imperial throne and said, "Father should already know everything. Since the prince didn't want to say anything, his father pretended not to know. This year, my father neither sent an imperial doctor there nor asked why the prince didn't come. .”

Qi Lingheng was silent and continued to ask: "What else did the Crown Princess say to you?"

"Say...the prince wants Jun'er to accompany him."

Qi Lingheng drank a glass of wine quietly.
