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

A few days later, Mrs. Lu, who was at the ancestral temple, received a maid sent by the Duke's Mansion, saying that she was there to serve her.

Mrs. Lu smiled with satisfaction, thinking that her husband still cared about her. He knew that she was short of staff in the ancestral temple, so he sent servants to her.

When she saw that the person who was sent was Lu Ya, Mrs. Lu did not recognize her identity for a moment. It was Mo Ju behind her who reminded her in a low voice that made her think about it.

Her face suddenly turned cold.

"Why are you here?" Mrs. Lu stared at Lu Ya with cold eyes.

Lu Ya whispered, "Yes...it was the young master who asked me to come here."

"Did you do what I asked you to do?" Mrs. Lu sat up straight unconsciously.

It must be that this maid’s identity was exposed, otherwise why would Lu Yuan send her here.

"I haven't found the opportunity yet." Lu Ya said in despair.

She didn't dare to lie, because every word she said was what Lu Yuan asked her to say to Mrs. Lu.

Mrs. Lu's expression became colder and colder. "What else did Lu Yuan ask you to say?"

"The eldest young master just asked me to serve you well. He said... he said..." Lu Ya trembled and didn't dare to continue.

"What else did he say!" Mrs. Lu shouted coldly.

Lu Ya closed her eyes, ready to die, "He said he would take care of the Second Young Master the same way you took care of him before."

Mrs. Lu accidentally dropped the teacup to the ground.

Discovered by Lu Yuan!

Eight years ago, she gave Lu Yuan a sterilizing drug. He was still young and sick at that time, so she had the opportunity to do it.

I thought no one would notice this, how did he find out?

"What does he want to do to Heng'er?" Mrs. Lu was furious.

If Lu Yuan dared to attack Lu Heng, he would surely die without a burial place.

Lu Ya whispered, "I don't know either."

Snapped!

Mrs. Lu slapped Lu Ya on the face, "You're useless."

"Drag her away and beat her to death. Beat her to death right away." Mrs. Lu could no longer maintain her dignified demeanor.

"The eldest master said that you can't beat me to death. If you beat me to death, the Duke will definitely think that you are cruel and unrepentant, and then you will never be able to return to the Duke's Mansion."

"The Duke and the Third Madam both know that I came to the family temple."

"Madam, you may not know this, but the Third Madam is the second daughter of the Southern Dynasty Ruan family. Her elder brother is Ruan Xinglin, who is currently in the Duke's Mansion."

"The Third Madam knows that I came to the family temple. If I die here, the Third Madam will definitely make a fuss about it. Madam, you don't want to ruin yourself."

Lu Ya screamed loudly and struggled to avoid being dragged away.

Mrs. Lu: "What did you say? What Ruan family?"

"Ruan Xinglin, the young master of the most aristocratic family in the Southern Dynasty, now lives in the Duke's Mansion. Madam, you don't want to be unable to return to the Duke's Mansion for the rest of your life." Lu Ya screamed hysterically.

"Let her go!" Mrs. Lu waved her hand.

"Did Lu Yuan ask you to say these words?"

Lu Ya shook her head, "No, I just don't want to die."

Mrs. Lu looked at her coldly and said, "Lock her up first."

"Mo Ju, go and find out immediately whether Ruan Xinglin is really in the Duke's Mansion."

"I'll go right away." Mo Ju nodded hurriedly.

It's no secret that Ruan Xinglin is now a distinguished guest of the Lu family. Mo Ju only needs to make a few inquiries to confirm the truth of this matter.

Mrs. Lu really can't silence Lu Ya.

If she really did that, Ruan would definitely not let her go.

There's a real possibility that she won't be able to return to the Duke's Mansion.

That wouldn't work. Her son was the future heir to the Duke's Mansion, and she couldn't give the Duke's Mansion to someone else for nothing.

"Lock up Lu Ya first and don't let her die." Mrs. Lu gritted her teeth.

When she returns to the Duke's Mansion, she will naturally be killed.

"Mo Ju, go to the Bai family shop in person and give this letter to the shopkeeper."

"Lu Yuan wants to harm Lu Heng. It's useless to rely on anyone in the Lu family. We can only ask the Bai family to protect Lu Heng."

Mrs. Lu's expression was almost crazy, "Kill Lu Yuan, no matter the cost."

……

……

Lu Heng was exhausted at this time.

Because Guangning had nightmares from time to time, they walked very slowly along the way.

He had never treated a woman so carefully before, and many times he almost lost his patience.

Thinking about his future, he held back again.

Ten miles away from Huainan, they stayed at an inn.

Guangning is in better spirits today.

She took a walk outside the post station before it got dark.

The setting sun melts into gold, and the sky is filled with a gorgeous sunset, which makes people feel calm and gentle.

Lu Heng was giving orders to his followers in the post station.

Suddenly, a figure rushed out from the weeds in the stable, holding an iron rod and stabbing Lu Heng's lower abdomen.

Lu Heng looked at the other person blankly, and he subconsciously covered his lower abdomen.

Hands covered in bright red blood.

It hurts, it hurts!

There was a moment of chaos and the people around began to react.

Before Lu Heng fainted, he saw the man who stabbed him, his face covered in dirt, looking like a refugee.

Refugees again...

When Guangning saw this scene, he froze in place, his mind going blank.

"Imperial Physician, Imperial Physician!"

Lu Heng is lucky.

This time, he was accompanied by two imperial doctors with superb medical skills. With their joint efforts, they finally saved his life.

It was not until midnight that Lu Heng finally woke up.

His face was as pale as paper and he opened his eyes and looked around.

"Prince Consort, the princess has been guarding you. She couldn't bear it anymore and was helped by the servants to go back to rest." said the imperial physician.

Lu Heng wanted to speak, but his throat was very dry.

Liu Mo hurriedly poured him a glass of water.

"Where is the assassin?" Lu Heng asked.

"Reporting to the prince consort, he has been killed on the spot. I heard from the people at the post station that he was a madman. He used to hang around in the village, but somehow he found himself hiding in the haystack today." The captain of the guards said in a deep voice.

Lu Heng closed his eyes. It was just a coincidence that the madman only wanted to kill him.

The imperial physician said, "Prince Consort, your wound is not fatal. You will recover after a few days of rest. However..."

"Just what?" Lu Heng asked.

The imperial physician looked around and felt that it was a difficult secret that he couldn't explain here.

The captain of the guards was very tactful and signaled the others at the door to step back after closing the door.

"Go ahead." Lu Heng said.

The imperial physician then slowly said, "The Prince Consort's wound is in a special location, so it may be difficult for him to have children in the future."

Lu Heng was stunned and his hands moved down subconsciously.

"What did you say?"

"It's just possible. Perhaps it can be cured after recovery." The imperial physician comforted.

In fact, he and another imperial physician had carefully examined the wound. Even if it did not affect the prince consort's sexual life in the future, it would probably make it impossible for him to have children.

Lu Heng clenched his teeth, and a bloody taste surged in his throat.

"Check! I don't believe this madman would assassinate me for no reason. Someone must have instructed him to do so."
