I was a housekeeper in ancient times

Chapter 221 Life and death

The two of them talked again, and Jiang Zhaofang subtly made Lord Sima believe that Lu Yuxuan's death was faked so that he could continue the investigation.

Jiang Zhaofang said, "I won't chat with you any more, as I have something important to do."

Sir Sima asked curiously, "I wonder what the Third Young Master is going to do?"

"The matter of Chuqing Pavilion."

"Chu Qing Hall? Didn't Chu Qing Hall check it out? Why is it still..."

"Your Excellency may not know yet, that Chu Qingguan actually kidnapped a child from a noble family."

"Whose family is it?"

"From the eldest wife's house of Marquis Pingrong."

"flat……"

Lord Sima was stunned. Isn't that Lu Yuxuan's child? How could it be... He realized the seriousness of the matter and said hurriedly, "I'll go with you."

When they arrived at Chu Qing Hall, they wanted to arrest Liang's mother for the crime of kidnapping and imprisoning a child, and blocked off the Chu Qing Hall from top to bottom.

At this point, Liang's mother was anxious, "Hey, why are you arresting me? I haven't committed any crime, why are you arresting me?"

Jiang Zhaofang said, "Why else? Don't play dumb with me. Didn't you kidnap the third daughter of the main house of the Pingrong Marquis's mansion?"

Upon hearing this, Liang's mother's heart finally died. She still couldn't understand how Wan Jie'er, a little girl, escaped. It couldn't be... But that couldn't be possible. How did they know?

She still refused to admit it, "You have no evidence, don't try to accuse me!"

Jiang Zhaofang snorted coldly, "No evidence? When we get to court, we'll have all the evidence you want. What are you all still standing there for? Hurry up and arrest the man!"

The news that Chuqing Hall was blocked soon reached Lu Yuxuan's ears.

At this time, Lu Yuxuan was still being affectionate with Xiao Qianluo in Qianchun Alley. After hearing the news, Lu Yuxuan was stunned and his face turned pale in an instant.

He was smiling one second, but his face turned gloomy the next. Xiao Qianluo could see it, so she asked cautiously, "What's wrong?"

Lu Yuxuan's eyes were dark. "Chuqing Hall was blocked, and Mother Liang was arrested by the government."

"Huh? Why?"

"It's all because of that girl Wan Jie'er! She escaped! If I had known this, I shouldn't have spared her life! As expected, what good things can come out of that bitch Yu Muyan!"

"Well, what should we do? Your situation is becoming increasingly difficult."

Lu Yuxuan was already furious, his fists clenched. Without Chu Qingguan, how would he hide in the future, and no one would support him. He would become a desperado from beginning to end!

This was completely opposite to what he had imagined. The only thing wrong with all this was that Yu Muyan did not commit suicide for her husband!

If he had died a martyr, none of this would have happened!

He knew that Madam Lu and Lu Yuheng had clarified the matter of his fake death, saying that someone had impersonated him.

This made him wonder whether he should praise them for being smart or stupid. They insisted that someone was impersonating him. Then when he shows up in the future, wouldn't someone doubt the authenticity of his identity?

Xiao Qianluo saw that his expression was frozen and she became more and more uneasy. She blinked and tears came into her eyes. "It's all my fault. I got you into trouble from the beginning and made you give up your bright future and fake your death just to be with me. Without me, you wouldn't have ended up like this today."

He came back to his senses and gently stroked Xiao Qianluo's cheek, "How can you blame yourself for this? This is all because of Yu Muyan. If she hadn't interfered, we would have left the capital and lived together outside!"

"It's useless to say this now. People are looking for you everywhere, and it's not easy for me to show up. Chu Qingguan is now... Alas, King Jingcheng is putting pressure on you again, asking you to deal with this matter as soon as possible, but it's getting more and more difficult."

"I know. I will take care of these things. Luo'er, I just want you to suffer with me."

After saying this, the two of them hugged each other tightly. It is said that true friendship is shown in times of adversity. When the Xiao family was in trouble before, Lu Yuxuan was also like this and never left.

If it weren't for Lu Yuxuan's companionship and protection over the years, Xiao Qianluo would not have been able to get through those difficult years. Therefore, now that Lu Yuxuan is in trouble, no matter what happens in the future or what the outcome is, Xiao Qianluo will accompany him through life and death.

"Luo'er, don't worry, I will definitely give us an absolutely beautiful future. I won't let you suffer with me in vain. But before that, I have to solve all these troubles."

"Lu Lang, I believe you. But no matter what, you must protect yourself. If anything unexpected happens to you, I..."

They were even sad, not knowing that all this was Lu Yuxuan's own fault.

When it got dark, Lu Yuxuan left Qianchun Alley quietly.

It was a coincidence that at that moment Mugua came to Qianchun Lane to pick up something left behind by Aunt Yan Wei and passed by Lu Yuxuan.

Although Lu Yuxuan was wearing a straw hat with the brim pulled down low and was dressed very modestly, Mugua still felt that he looked very familiar. He muttered to himself, "Who is this person? Why does he look so familiar?"

Some time ago, Yu Muyan wrote a letter to ask to leave the Lu family, and soon there was news.

It was the Huiyang County Lord who came to tell her about this. As soon as she arrived, she hurriedly said, "You have to get ready in the next few days. The Queen will most likely summon you."

This shocked Yu Muyan so much that she was incoherent, "W-what, the Queen wants to summon me? Why?"

"The emperor felt that the evidence for your petition was insufficient, and that person has not shown up yet, so he thought that you wanted to leave because you were afraid of being implicated."

"But he wanted to kill me, and even wanted to kill my younger sister."

"In His Majesty's view, this is just your temporary excuse and is not worthy of trust. Besides, the old lady of the Bo Mansion is still alive, and you have the blood of the Lu family. If you leave without permission, it would be unfilial and unkind."

"This, this is not the case at all..."

Lin Weiqiao, who was serving beside him, didn't want to listen any more. His Majesty couldn't be so stupid, right? But think about it, His Majesty is also a man, and without knowing right from wrong, he would naturally choose to stand on Lu Yuxuan's side.

If the emperor were a woman, she probably wouldn't have so many doubts.

Huiyang County Lady said again: "Don't worry, there is more. I originally told the Queen about this matter in advance. After the Queen knew about it, she felt that you had your own reasons, otherwise how could you do such a shocking thing. So, she asked you to come to the palace and explain the matter to her face. Not only the matter of the fake death, but also the matter that the old lady in your house deliberately hid Wan Jie'er and replaced Xing Ge'er. You have to tell them all. Only when the emperor and the Queen know what the Lu family did to you, you and the child can leave."

Lin Weiqiao said: "We can find witnesses for the brothers and sisters' affairs. But we can't find anyone for the fake death of our late uncle for the time being, and we don't have any actual evidence..."
