Forcing me to raise a concubine? The mistress of the Marquisate has gone mad
Chapter 45: Fake corpse?
"Jing'er, why are you so confused? Did that woman give you some kind of magic potion again?" Old Madam Lu was very disappointed with Shen Ruoyan, and she became even more anxious when she saw Shen Ruoyan leave in anger.
There are so many women in the world, why do you only pick this one?
Lu Jing was helpless and defended, "Grandma, Rou'er didn't say anything. I allowed her to go with me because I felt sorry for her."
After all, Fang Rou is Lu Ankang's biological mother. Although Kang Ge's life has been saved for now, only a biological mother would feel distressed to send such a young child to a farm with difficult conditions.
After all, Shen Ruoyan is not Kang Ge’s biological mother, so when making these decisions, she would not consider Kang Ge’s feelings.
When Fang Rou thought about leaving her son for such a long time, she didn't even want to be a concubine in the Marquis's Mansion. She would rather be a maid in the farm and stay with her son.
This is true motherly love!
"Grandma, don't worry, Rou'er is just going to go and take a look. After all, she is Kang Ge's mother..."
Madam Lu closed her eyes in disappointment, not wanting to look at this miserable grandson anymore. "Forget it. You have the right ideas now, and I, an old woman, can no longer make decisions for you. But since Ruoyan has done her best for you, you need to comfort her."
A trace of guilt flashed through Lu Jing's heart, but when he thought of Fang Rou, his eyes became firm again.
"Don't worry, grandma. I will talk to Ruoyan properly."
After he left, Madam Lu slowly opened her eyes. She called Nanny Xue in and immediately poured her a cup of tea. "Madam, calm down."
"What kind of mother is she to be a concubine's son?!"
Madam Lu didn't answer. She snorted coldly, her tone full of disdain, "Have someone keep a close eye on her when the time comes. Don't let her mess things up! If something goes wrong this time, the entire mansion might be at risk. We have to make sure everything is safe!"
Madam Xue nodded and said, "Don't worry, old lady. I will have someone keep a close eye on her!"
She was the old lady's confidant, and Old Lady Lu did not hide this kind of thing from her. Because many things need to be arranged by the people below to do them.
Just like Shen Ruoyan, he did not hide it from Chunxi and Qiuye.
"We can't waste the opportunity that's been given to us."
After returning to his own yard, Shen Ruoyan changed from his previous dejected state to become full of high spirits and determined to win!
Chunxi stepped forward and handed over a wet towel, helping Shen Ruoyan wipe her hands. "Don't worry, Madam. Qiuye has already asked someone to arrange things outside. Since Aunt Fang is so worried, we servants will definitely make sure she gets what she wants."
Having offended Prince Shun’s palace, you still want to get away with it peacefully?
Shen Ruoyan is not a saint, how could she let them be so happy?
If anyone wants to blame someone, it can only be blamed on Lu Ankang's bad luck, which happened at this time. If he was a good person, he might not have encountered such a big thing - but who made him strive for success?
Having allowed this concubine to bully others in the mansion for so long, Shen Ruoyan's patience is limited.
Although no one knew why Lu Ankang was so valued by the old lady and Lu Jing, as long as he was around, Lu Yan's position as the crown prince could be replaced at any time!
The emperor's personal appointment can only get us through now.
When the child grows up and is able to pass the imperial examinations, everyone will know that the prince of the Marquis' Mansion is a mute, and the mansion already has an outstanding adopted son. Can the emperor still force the Marquis' Mansion to find a mute as the prince?
It was because the Lu family was so narrow-minded that they were fooled by her.
Later, they will naturally find the loopholes here. By then, Lu Yan will be in danger!
Therefore, she must nip this matter in the bud!
On the day of the funeral of the son of the Marquis's mansion, many people in Shengjing City came out to watch. This incident caused such a big commotion that even the arrogant Prince Shun's mansion came out to apologize, which was really gratifying!
So, when Shen Ruoyan and the others came out of the mansion, the streets were deserted, it was even more lively than a wedding!
[Is this the child who was forced to death by the prince of the palace? ]
[Yes, yes, I heard that the prince has come to apologize. He died miserably! ]
[This coffin is so small, how old is it? How pitiful...]
Everyone followed behind, whispering. All of them were lamenting and regretful. Although they had never even seen Lu Ankang, they had already given him many versions of tragic stories.
Shen Ruoyan was sitting in the carriage, the curtain was held tightly by Chunxi, no matter how loud the wind was outside, it could not be blown even a little bit.
Listening to those people's discussion, there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, but it disappeared without a trace the moment she lowered her head.
She slowly closed her eyes, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly as the carriage moved.
The noise outside did not cause any ripples in Shen Ruoyan's heart. All she had to do now was to close her eyes and rest.
There is still a play to be performed today!
"We're here, ma'am, please get off the car."
A voice came from outside the carriage. Chun Xi went out first, then gently lifted the curtain and led Shen Ruoyan out of the carriage.
Because of Lu Ankang's special status, he only told others that his children liked green mountains and clear waters, so he specially chose a place in a remote place outside the city. There were many people watching the excitement in the city, but outside the city, this place was sparsely populated.
Only people from the Lu family are here.
The air on the mountain is fresh, and at this time, you can even hear birds singing.
Lu Jing subconsciously relaxed his shoulders. Seeing this, Shen Ruoyan walked to his side calmly and said, "My Lord, someone from Prince Shun's Mansion is following us."
"what?!"
Lu Jing's heart tightened and his relaxed shoulders tensed up again. He didn't even dare to look back to confirm, for fear that someone would notice his flaw.
After reminding him, Shen Ruoyan ignored him and arranged the servants to put down the coffin in an orderly manner, and then began the burial according to the procedures that had been prepared long ago.
The people from Prince Shun's mansion did follow them, but they did not doubt the truth of Lu Ankang's death. Instead, Prince Shun was so angry that he sent people to keep an eye on the Lu family, hoping to use the Lu family's frustration to soothe his anger.
However, Lu Jing didn't know that he felt guilty when he thought about the people from Prince Shun's mansion being here.
He stared straight ahead, not daring to relax for even a second. Only when he saw the coffin successfully buried in the ground, with not even a shadow visible, did he feel a little relieved.
"My Lord, I am deeply saddened."
Shen Ruoyan hinted at something, and Lu Jing nodded, "Ruoyan, it's windy here, and you've worked hard, don't hurt yourself again."
When the two of them were acting, they had a tacit understanding and supported each other as they walked back.
The people in Prince Shun's mansion took a look, thought it was boring, and prepared to leave and report.
However, unexpectedly, a person came running over from the other side and said something to Lu Jing, causing both Lu Jing and Shen Ruoyan's faces to change drastically!
He was puzzled. When could he scare the Marquis and his wife like this?
It’s not a fake corpse!
What he didn't know was that, although it wasn't a fake corpse, this news was no different from a fake corpse to the Lu family -
"My Lord, Madam, this is bad! Young Master Kang's coffin was accidentally knocked down and hit the ground. Young Master Kang has lost too much blood and has passed out!"
