If I were born again, I would marry a strong but short-lived husband.

As Lu Yuan's cold voice fell, the hall fell silent.

Guangning raised her red and swollen eyes with a look of resentment and viciousness. She didn't believe that the impeachment had nothing to do with Lu Yuan.

He actually wanted to impeach her for that bitch Shen Suian. Wasn't he afraid of offending his mother and second brother?

Lu Yuan ignored Guangning's gaze and looked at Lu Heng calmly, "You were once a minister of the imperial court. The emperor's words are golden and his words are firm. Do you think that the emperor will wrongly accuse his own daughter without any evidence?"

"You want me to overturn the verdict. Do you think the emperor made a mistake, or do you want me to disobey the emperor's will? You took all the benefits. You are really calculating."

Uncle Lu's face turned red with anger as he listened to Lu Yuan's heart-piercing words.

"We all prosper together and suffer together. Is it wrong for me to ask you to help your family?" asked Uncle Lu.

"That depends on what the matter is. The princess's matter didn't affect the Lu family. At most, Lu Heng was cuckolded and laughed at. That's nothing. Others will just gossip about it a few days later and it will be fine."

Lu Heng's face turned pale and red, and he looked at Lu Yuan with a cold gaze.

Lu Yuan glanced at him, wanting to take action?

That's really great of you.

"It's not new for a princess to keep a lover, right, Princess Guangning?" Lu Yuan curled the corners of his mouth and said one heart-piercing word after another.

Princess Guangning was secretly resentful. She shouldn't have provoked Lu Yuan. This evil ghost would not give face to anyone. He only listened to his father's orders. How could he help her overturn the case?

"I was framed in this matter, Commander Lu. We will meet again in the future, and there will be retribution in the future." Guangning said in a cold voice.

Lu Heng's face turned cold and he stopped talking. He felt completely embarrassed when he learned today that the Censorate impeached Guangning for keeping a lover and allowing the lover to occupy the people's fertile land.

He only hated that he couldn't divorce the princess.

The court officials looked at him with sympathy and pity, and Lu Heng felt humiliated and angry.

But he still had to endure the nausea and help Guangning deal with the matter. Only if this case could be overturned and Guangning's innocence could be proved, he would not become a laughing stock in the eyes of others.

Not only did he have to help Guangning, the entire Duke's Mansion hoped that Guangning could get out of this matter.

Rongsheng of the Duke's Mansion has been tied to Princess Guangning.

The one who was most deeply touched was Uncle Lu.

Today, there was a good job that should have fallen into his hands, but the Minister of Revenue turned around and gave it to another person.

"Lu Yuan, the Lu family has raised you for so many years, and now they just want you to take care of the future of the Lu family. You are not willing to do even such a small thing?" Uncle Lu asked gritting his teeth.

"If I do as you wish, the Lu family will have no future. Does father agree?" Lu Yuan asked expressionlessly.

Uncle Lu thought Lu Yuan was making excuses on purpose and glared at him angrily.

"Well, the matter has already been settled. The emperor is angry, so don't do anything unnecessary." Duke Lu finally spoke in a deep voice.

He looked around at everyone and said in a stern voice, "I asked you all to come here today because I have a few words to warn you all."

"You are all members of the Lu family. When you go out, every move you make represents the Lu family. I hope you remember that everyone has their share of honor and disgrace. The downfall of a family starts with internal strife. If you have calculating means, you should think about how to make a future for your husband and not use shameful means for dirty things."

"You are a wealthy family, and you guys made such a joke. Don't you feel ashamed? I am embarrassed too."

Guangning's eyes were cold, she lowered her head slightly and pursed her lips tightly.

Mrs. Lu's expression was equally grim.

Although the Duke did not mention any names, everyone knew that he was talking about Guangning and Lu Yan.

One is her daughter-in-law and the other is her daughter.

She had lost all her face.

Lord Lu raised his eyes and looked at Guangning deeply, "Princess, does the emperor want you to stay in the princess's mansion?"

"Grandfather, I will send the princess back." Lu Heng said restrainedly.

Lu Yuan took Shen Suian's hand and calmly left the upper room.

Shen Sui'an didn't say a word from beginning to end, but he felt indignant for Lu Yuan in his heart.

They clearly wanted to ask Lu Yuan for help, but none of them had the attitude of asking for help.

They didn't treat Lu Yuan as a family member and had no respect for him at all.

"What's wrong?" Lu Yuan asked in a low voice.

"They treat you badly." Shen Suian said with a frown.

Lu Yuan smiled faintly, his eyes cold, "I'm used to it. This is how I've been getting along with them over the years."

"Now is not the time to separate the family. If I confront them head-on, it will make your life in the Lu family difficult. Sui Sui, you will have to work harder. If you don't want to deal with them, just ignore them and leave everything to Shi Qing."

Shen Sui'an: "They don't like me anyway."

No matter how good Lu Yuan's relationship with them is, they will still make things difficult for her.

Lu Yuan remembered that she and Lu Heng had once been engaged, and smiled faintly. Lu Heng did do one thing right.

If he had not been entangled with Song Xiuzhi, there would have been no such thing as a marriage.

"In a few days, we will stay in another courtyard. I haven't been able to spend enough time with you since we got married." Lu Yuan said.

"it is good."

……

……

Liuyun Garden.

Mrs. Lu was furious. She returned to Liuyun Garden and tore the chrysanthemum painting she had completed today into pieces.

"Don't get angry and make yourself sick. Why bother with those villains?" Uncle Lu comforted her.

"If it weren't for Guangning, would Sister Yan'er's reputation be ruined? I've already lost all my face. When I go out, everyone will point fingers at me, saying that my daughter-in-law has a lover and my daughter has an affair with a man outside her family."

Mrs. Lu closed her eyes and imagined all kinds of situations. She felt like she would rather die than go out for social events in her life.

"It's not that serious. People outside just say it for a while and it will be over in a few days." Uncle Lu hugged her shoulders and helped her sit down.

"Besides, Princess Guangning is the daughter of Concubine Yao. Those people don't dare to gossip about her."

Mrs. Lu mocked, "They dare not say anything about Princess Guangning, but they can laugh at your son."

"The Censorate's impeachment of Princess Guangning must have been caused by Lu Yuan behind the scenes. He wanted to vent his anger for Shen Suian." Mrs. Lu said angrily.

Uncle Lu's face was gloomy. "This bastard should have been thrown to death at the beginning."

"Then why did you bring him back?" asked Mrs. Lu.

She was filled with hatred.

Uncle Lu looked away, "He is too evil, I... I can't kill him."

"Is his biological mother still alive?" asked Mrs. Lu.

"Dead! She won't appear in front of you." Uncle Lu said hurriedly.

He turned away feeling guilty, not wanting to continue the topic.

Since she's dead, why would I be worried about her appearing?

Mrs. Lu sneered in her heart. She knew that Lu Yuan's biological mother must still be alive and that Mr. Lu was not telling the truth at all.

"I'm tired. Let Furong serve the master." Mrs. Lu said tiredly.

"Then you have a good rest. I will come to have dinner with you tomorrow morning." Uncle Lu said, thinking he was considerate.

Mrs. Lu turned her face away.

He slept with another woman tonight, and tomorrow morning he would have to hug her with dirty hands. The thought of that made me feel sick.
