The third room made a fuss for a while and was finally allowed to stay.

She was also terribly frightened and cried for a long time while holding her two children. Later, Old Madam Lu and Lu Shengshi came to talk to her and said that the fourth wife had died and the matter should just be let go.

The third room thought that they had escaped a disaster, but they didn't expect that three days later...

"what!"

The head of the Lu family hurried back from outside and said that he went to the river early this morning to see if he could catch some fish to eat, but he found that the third daughter-in-law of the Lu family had drowned in the pond in the back river.

"Ouch!"

Madam Lu burst into tears and kept saying, "What should I do! What should I do! I didn't care about going hungry for a few days, and I was a little angry with the fourth room, and I couldn't think straight!"

As he was talking, he was already crying so hard that he could not stop. After everyone persuaded and supported him, he finally went to the river.

The third roommate had been fished out, covered with a white cloth!

People who died suddenly could not be buried in the ancestral tomb, so she was sent to the north slope like the fourth room...

The Lu family lost two mouths to feed, and the things Lu Xingcheng brought back were enough to cope with them for a while. Old Madam Lu and Lu Shengshi were very happy and felt they could survive the winter.

"mother……"

In the evening, Lu Xingcheng sat next to Aunt Mei with a frown on his face.

"Mother, they were so cruel to the third and fourth wives. I am really worried! If I leave, what will they do to you..."

When Lu Xingcheng was alone, he didn't even want to call his grandmother or aunt.

The moment the Lu family asked him to go to the Cining Palace, his heart sank.

In the past, he was the eldest grandson of the Lu family. The Lu family doted on him, allowing him to study and become Wen Qiqi's legitimate son. Now, the Lu family was in trouble and he himself was too embarrassed to be seen by others, so Lu Zhanyao arranged for him to enter the palace...

Originally I said I didn’t need to purify myself, but later…

"Mom, I hate them. Now in this world, I only trust you."

Lu Xingcheng held Aunt Mei's hand and said, "I want to take you with me, but I'm in the Cining Palace now and I haven't established myself yet! It's really inconvenient to take you back to Kyoto!"

"Go back now and don't worry about me."

Aunt Mei stroked Lu Xingcheng's face and said distressedly: "The Lu family is indeed cruel. They made my son go to the Cining Palace. I hate them, I hate them to death! But now I have to stay here... If the Lu family ever makes a comeback, you will still be the eldest son!"

"But what if they..."

"will not!"

Aunt Mei said, "You are my mother's support! Now your father doesn't dare to show up, and I don't know what he does every time he returns to Kyoto. You are the only one left... Apart from you, the Lu family has no other way out."

She paused and said, "With you here, they won't dare to embarrass me!"

"kindness."

Lu Xingcheng finally felt relieved. After thinking for a while, he said, "Mom, I have to go back tomorrow because the Thirteenth Prince is going to the battle again! I heard that he is going to East City this time..."

"Why? Is Dongcheng provoking me again?"

When Aunt Mei was at the Lu Mansion, she heard Qiqi often talk about the battle situation in East City, so naturally she knew a little about it.

Lu Xingcheng said as he packed his things, "It doesn't seem so. I also heard about it... It seems that there is a mountain village in East City. It is very impressive! It is so rich that it can rival a country! The Thirteenth Prince took the initiative to ask the Emperor to confiscate the three villages in East City. In this way, this year's natural disasters can be alleviated!"

Lu Xingcheng didn't know much about the war, and what he said was only a vague understanding.

Aunt Mei asked, "What ability does a mountain village have to be rich enough to rival a country?"

"My son doesn't know. All I want now is to get revenge on Wen Qiqi someday! Mother, I hate Wen Qiqi to death. It's because of her that our Lu family has become what it is now, and my illness has become known to everyone! She pretends to recognize me as her son, but in fact... in fact, she has never been on the same page with you and me!"

Lu Xingcheng said bitterly: "If I gain power one day, I will definitely send her to the red-light district and make her a whore despised by everyone like Yu Zhenzhu!"
