After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

Chapter 23: Being a widow is more comfortable

Lu Xingzhou was completely stunned.

Commander-in-Chief Lu had always been trying to win them over. They thought that this time, they would be able to ask him for help, but he unexpectedly went against his usual behavior and arrested the Lu family?

"Grand Commander——"

Lu Yuan smiled and said, "Master Lu, do you think you are also an accomplice and want to have a prison meal together?"

Lu Xingzhou immediately fell silent.

He glanced at his son who was held down by the Jinyiwei and secretly clenched his fingers.

He had witnessed Lu Yuan's mood swings and his tendency to turn his back on people. No one in the world could accurately understand the mind and temper of this great commander-in-chief!

Lu Xingzhou cannot get in, he must find a way to rescue his son as soon as possible.

"Lu Yuan!"

Lu Lingxiao glared at Lu Yuan fiercely.

At this moment, his anger towards this treacherous official of the dynasty reached its peak.

Lu Yuan smiled calmly and walked into the mansion leisurely.

In the carriage, Baoshu was crying and raging, as if she was accusing someone of forgetting her again!

The news that Lu Lingxiao was captured by the Grand Commander soon spread back to the Lu family.

The old lady had just washed her hands of a day's scandal and was still angry when her grandson was arrested!

How can I bear this?

"what happened?"

She yelled.

The maidservant did not dare to hide anything and told what she had learned from the outer courtyard: "It's all the fault of the eldest young master's wife. She had to expose Miss Lin. Now the eldest young master has been convicted of favoring his concubine over his wife and deceiving the emperor. He has been locked up by the Jinyiwei! Who knows how badly he will be beaten!"

The reputation of the Jinyiwei in the capital is not very good. They are responsible for torture, surveillance, assassination, and all kinds of things that are both visible and invisible to the public.

If they are captured by the Imperial Guards, how many of them will have a good ending?

The old lady was heartbroken.

She only had this one legitimate grandson, who had suffered five years of hardship at the border, and now suffered this sudden disaster upon his return.

Of course she wouldn't think that her grandson did anything wrong. If there was any fault, it was that girl's fault!

If she hadn't exposed Lin Wan'er in public and made a big deal out of it, her grandson wouldn't have been reported to the censor, and wouldn't have been charged with deceiving the emperor!

"If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have let her marry me! She's such a bad luck! Tell her to get out of here and kneel down until the Grand Commander lets her go! Otherwise, she can't come back to the Lu family! There's no such woman in our Lu family who would bring disaster to her own husband!"

The maid brought the message to Haitang Courtyard.

Banxia was very angry, she put her hands on her hips and stamped her feet: "Why? What did you do wrong, young lady? It was obviously the son-in-law who went too far. If he hadn't brought a vixen back from the border, there wouldn't be all these troubles now. Do you really think you are from a good family? If I had known, I wouldn't have married you!"

Nanny Li also felt aggrieved for her young lady. If the old man knew that his granddaughter, whom he held in the palm of his hand, was pushed into such a fire pit, he wondered if he would regret his original decision.

“Miss, do you want to listen to the old lady… go to the Governor’s Mansion to plead for mercy?”

"Don't go."

Meng Qianqian checked the accounts and said without hesitation.

Nanny Li sighed, "It's better not to go. I heard that the Grand Commander is not a good person. I'm afraid I will only be humiliated if I go."

The old lady didn't ask the young lady to beg for mercy at all. She clearly wanted to torture her. She wanted to make her grandson sad, so she made the young lady suffer.

Nanny Li said to Banxia, ​​"Lady will send someone over later to say that the young lady was so sad that she fainted from crying."

Banxia nodded seriously: "Got it, Mammy!"

The old lady sent people to urge her three times and scolded her three times, but each time she was repelled by Banxia.

The old lady almost fainted from anger. If she hadn't been so exhausted from washing the dog blood, she would have come to Haitang Courtyard and slapped Meng Qianqian a few times herself.

Lu Xingzhou ran around all night and looked for many colleagues, but when they heard that it was the commander-in-chief who ordered the arrest, they all refused.

It would be fine if it was at the border, but this is the capital city, and the commander-in-chief has absolute power. Who dares to plead for Lu Lingxiao?

There are people who are not afraid of Lu Yuan, but the problem is that even Lu Xingzhou cannot reach the level of those noble families.

In desperation, Lu Xingzhou gritted his teeth and went to the old lady's yard.

The old lady had just woken up and was frightened when she saw a disheveled thing!

"grandmother."

Lu Xingzhou bowed hurriedly.

The old lady asked unhappily, "What for?"

Lu Xingzhou said, "Xiao Ge'er is in trouble. I beg you, grandmother, to come forward and plead for Xiao Ge'er."

The old lady had an imperial decree and was also old, so even if Lu Yuan was arrogant and domineering, he would not embarrass such an old lady.

Last time at the Governor's Mansion, Lu Yuan paid his respects to the old lady. Perhaps, he would show leniency to her because of her advanced age.

The old lady shook her head and looked up at the sky: "I won't go! This stinky boy deserves to be punished, well done for catching him!"

Lu Xingzhou: “…”

The old lady was dazed and it was impossible to reason with her. She simply did not understand what it meant to be captured by the Embroidered Uniform Guards.

But if I force her, she might have a seizure. Then, let alone begging for mercy, she might not even remember who she is.

Lu Xingzhou left the yard with a headache.

Haitang Courtyard also welcomed an uninvited guest, but it was not sent by the old lady, but Lin Wan'er.

Banxia blocked the person at the door: "You are not welcome here! Get out!"

Lin Wan'er glanced at Banxia coldly, pushed Banxia away, and entered Meng Qianqian's room.

"Miss--"

Banxia chased in.

Meng Qianqian said to Banxia, ​​"Go check if the chicken noodles are ready. Tell Mammy that I want to eat spicy food. Ask her to add two spoonfuls of chili oil."

Banxia glared at Lin Wan'er, snorted, and went to the kitchenette.

Meng Qianqian is eating bird's nest.

She was wearing a light pink jacket, looking lively and bright, like a flower bud in early spring.

Lin Wan'er came in front of Meng Qianqian, glanced at her, and was about to take the pen and ink on the table.

Meng Qianqian said calmly: "Don't touch my things, just say what you want to say, I can understand."

Lin Wan'er frowned suspiciously and gestured in sign language: Lu Lang was caught.

Meng Qianqian said, "I know."

Seeing that she really understood sign language, Lin Wan'er was even more surprised.

Meng Qianqian stirred the blood swallow in the bowl with a spoon and asked calmly, "Are you not pretending anymore?"

Lin Wan'er turned her face away coldly, and after a while, she calmed down and gestured: Aren't you worried about Lu Lang at all?

Meng Qianqian: "Why should I worry?"

Lin Wan'er: He is your husband.

Meng Qianqian smiled: "Now you remember that he is my husband, did you forget about it completely when we were having sex?"

Lin Wan'er clenched her fist.

She gestured: If he died, aren’t you afraid that you would really become a widow?

Meng Qianqian smiled faintly: "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten that being a widow is much more comfortable than it is now."

Lin Wan'er closed her eyes, suppressed her displeasure, and gestured: "I know you have many complaints against me, you can settle the score with me however you want, but Lu Lang can't get into trouble. I have a way to save him, and I need your cooperation. As long as Lu Lang can be rescued, I... I can allow Lu Lang... to consummate the marriage with you!"
