After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

The script in Meng Qianqian's hand fell on the footstool in front of the bed.

Lu Lingxiao moved forward, knelt on one knee beside Meng Qianqian, clasped Meng Qianqian's wrists with both hands, pressed her loosely under his body, and looked at her with sharp eyes.

Meng Qianqian lay calmly under him, looking at him peacefully, without any rejection or struggle.

Lu Lingxiao said coldly: "You are really... submissive!"

Clothes are thick in winter, and she always wears a cloak when going out. At first glance, she is not as delicate as Wan'er, but at this moment, Lu Lingxiao holds her slender wrist and feels that he can break it if he is not careful.

When she first came to the Lu family, he actually saw her from a distance.

She was a plump and greedy girl, but after five years, she has become so thin...

Lu Lingxiao tightened his grip on her wrist, and a hint of hesitation flashed across his drunken red eyes.

But when he thought about how she was willing to use such unscrupulous means to consummate her marriage with him, the reluctance in his heart disappeared in an instant!

Even if I treat her rudely, it's her own fault!

Just as Lu Lingxiao raised his hand to tear her clothes, he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

He stopped and slowly raised his head, only to see a person sitting cross-legged on the inside of the bed, with his arms folded, staring at him.

His body trembled, and he sobered up instantly: "Great-grandmother?"

Damn!

Why is my great-grandmother here?

The old lady narrowed her eyes: "Are you bullying Qianqian?"

Lu Lingxiao said hurriedly: "I didn't..."

The old lady aimed at his head and slapped him in the face: "Do you think I'm blind? I saw it all!"

Lu Lingxiao's head buzzed from the blow.

"How dare you, little brat, throw Qianqian? I'll let you throw me! I'll let you throw me!"

The old lady slapped him left and right, making him slap her face loudly.

Lu Lingxiao quickly let go of Meng Qianqian, holding his head and hiding under the bed: "Great-grandmother! It's not what you think... You misunderstood..."

"How dare you quibble!"

The old lady also jumped off the bed. Not satisfied with just slapping him in the face, she picked up the laundry stick on the table and beat Lu Lingxiao up!

Lu Lingxiao didn't dare to fight back and was beaten so hard that he fled around the house. But the house was so small, where could he escape to?

"Don't dirty the table!"

Well, you can’t go on the table.

"Get down here!"

You can’t hide on the beams!

"You're running so fast, you're trying to tire me out!"

Can't you just go a little faster?!

In the blink of an eye, Lu Lingxiao was hit by the old lady several times.

My great-grandmother is much healthier now than she was five years ago, and the beating really hurt.

He was a military commander and had experienced greater pain, but being injured on the battlefield was different from being beaten up by his great-grandmother, which was very humiliating!

As he ran away with his head in his hands, he gritted his teeth and looked at Meng Qianqian who was lying on the bed.

Meng Qianqian had already sat up, eating fried fruit, and tilted her head to watch him get beaten.

Lu Lingxiao gritted his teeth: "This woman..."

The moment he was distracted, the old lady caught him and knocked him down with a club!

"Bah!"

Lu Lingxiao: “……!!”

A quarter of an hour later, the old lady dragged Lu Lingxiao, who was beaten up by her, to Lu Xingzhou's study.

When Lu Xingzhou saw the two of them, he was shocked: "Grandma, this is..."

The old lady said fiercely: "Keep your son under control! If a son is not well disciplined, it is the fault of the father. If this kid dares to hit Qianqian again, I will beat you too!"

After the old lady left, Lu Xingzhou looked at his son coldly.

His face was flushed and he reeked of alcohol, and it was obvious that he had drunk too much.

Lu Xingzhou said angrily, "I asked you to move to Qianqian's yard, not to let you go and get drunk and go crazy!"

Lu Lingxiao had no way of arguing.

He was indeed a bit rude just now, but if she wasn't scheming, why would he be so angry?

Lu Xingzhou said irritably: "Go back to your own yard and reflect on your actions!"

Lu Lingxiao left.

Lu Xingzhou looked at his back and waved his sleeves: "You are ignorant!"

The servant asked awkwardly, "Master, are you saying that the eldest young master is ignorant, or that the young mistress is ignorant?"

Lu Xingzhou said: "Both of them are ignorant!"

After a pause, Lu Xingzhou went to Lu's mother's room.

Mother Lu sprained her foot last time and was called by the old lady to work all morning, and she has not recovered yet.

Lu Xingzhou told her about his son: "You should also persuade Qianqian to stop being so petty. Xiaoge'er is her husband after all. How can you push your husband away?"

The son did something wrong today, but it is also inappropriate for the daughter-in-law to always ask the old lady for help.

The young couple should solve their own problems behind closed doors. At worst, they still have their parents-in-law to deal with. Now that the matter has been made known to everyone in the house, how can she embarrass her husband like this?

"understood."

Mother Lu lowered her eyes and agreed.

Lu Xingzhou could tell from her perfunctory and reluctant response: "I know you love Qianqian, but Xiaoge'er is your biological son after all. You don't want the news of your family's unrest and marital discord to spread and affect his career, right?"

Lu Xingzhou stood up and said, "Have someone prepare dinner. I'll stay overnight."

Mother Lu’s body froze.

The incident of a Beiliang spy committing a crime in the street caused quite a stir in the capital. At the same time, word spread among the people that the wife of General Zhenbei sacrificed herself to save others.

Everyone praised the fact that there were no weak women in a general's family, and Lu Lingxiao's reputation among the people also rose.

However, just when the Lu family was feeling complacent, Censor Wang impeached Lu Lingxiao in a memorial.

It is said that he favors his concubine over his wife, goes against the Three Bonds and Five Constant Virtues, is capable but not virtuous, and lacks moral integrity, so he is not worthy of being a third-rank General Zhenbei. Moreover, he knew the law but broke it, and his crime is serious, so he should be severely punished!

When asked about the evidence, Censor Wang straightened his back and said, "Humph, your wife saw it with her own eyes! Lu Lingxiao brought his mistress to the Governor's Mansion for a banquet and called her Madam Lu. On the day he was captured by the assassin, he risked his wife's life to save her mistress! Such a corrupt person, I beg Your Majesty to remove him from office!"

The young emperor turned his head, glanced at the empty chair behind the curtain, and said to Wang Yushi, "I know."

After the court session, Lu Xingzhou caught up with Censor Wang and said, "Sir Wang, there are many misunderstandings about this matter. My son..."

"Humph!"

Censor Wang turned his nose up in the air and walked away in a huff!

"Father!"

At the palace gate, Lu Lingxiao came up quickly. He still had a few big bumps on his head, so he wore a hat to cover them.

He had heard from the officials who had come out earlier that he had been reported.

"Look at what you have done!" Lu Xingzhou laughed.

"Father……"

Lu Xingzhou said, "Fortunately, the Grand Commander did not come to court today, so His Majesty has not made a decision yet. You should follow me to the Governor's Mansion immediately."

Lu Lingxiao clenched his fist: "Father wants me to ask that sycophantic minister for help?"

Lu Xingzhou said: "There is no other way at the moment."

Lu Lingxiao frowned: "Can he stop Censor Wang?"

Censor Wang was an incorruptible person who would not be persuaded by any persuasion or threats. Half of the people in the court had been reported by him, including the Grand Commander.

Lu Xingzhou said, "It doesn't matter if he can't stop it. Don't forget that he is also a witness. As long as he insists that it was you and Qianqian who went to the banquet at the Governor's Mansion, Madam Wang's testimony will be shattered."

After all, this world is more biased towards men, especially a man in a high position of power.
