My stepmother is here, all the rebellious sons and evildoers should kneel down!

As the two were talking, they saw someone carrying a lantern walking towards the garden.

Yu Zhenzhu looked at Wen Qiqi, and the two of them understood each other. They bent down tacitly and hid in the dark corner of the garden along the flower wall.

The person carrying the lantern was none other than Aunt Mei.

At this time, she must be waiting for someone in the garden...

After a while, another person quickly walked into the garden.

"It's an adult."

Jade Pearl whispered.

Wen Qiqi nodded...

The two of them were not talking in the room, obviously behind Lu Xingcheng's back.

Lu Xingcheng should be reviewing his lessons at this time. The Lu Mansion was in chaos, and Lu Xingcheng had no choice but to focus all his attention on studying, so that he could show that he was a man of great potential.

"Mei'er, there's no one here. I want to talk to you."

Lu Zhanyao hugged Aunt Mei's shoulders, saying affectionately, "It's a foregone conclusion that Wen Qiqi and I will divorce this time. Lord Yu has said all the good things in front of the Empress Dowager, but the Empress Dowager still sided with Wen Qiqi and agreed to the divorce."

Wen Qiqi was surprised to hear this and felt relieved.

Aunt Mei nestled in Lu Zhanyao's arms, overjoyed: "My lord, you don't have to be sad. It's the lady who doesn't know how to appreciate the blessings she has. If she wants to leave, she can leave. Mei'er will always be by your side."

Lu Zhanyao nodded, holding Aunt Mei's face and saying affectionately: "Of course, in the mansion, you and I are the only ones who are in tune with each other. The third and fourth wives came into the mansion to continue their family line. I have little affection for them, and since they had children, I no longer think about them."

Aunt Mei smiled coquettishly: "I believe what you said, sir, but...what about the fifth room? I see that sir likes her very much."

"Look, you're jealous again."

Lu Zhanyao hooked Aunt Mei's nose and said, "A woman who walked out of the red-light district. I married her into the mansion because of Lord Yu... I originally wanted to use her to restrain the Madam. Lord Yu just thought she was unlucky and wanted to test my loyalty."

His words pierced Yu Zhenzhu's heart like a poisonous needle.

"I knew he would look at me like this. Whatever!" Yu Zhenzhu lowered her voice and said, "He didn't give me any sincerity, and I just thought he was a guest in the red-light district. I married here just for Lord Yu! Lord Yu never thought I was unlucky, it must be Lu Zhanyao himself who despised me..."

Wen Qiqi raised the corner of his mouth but said nothing more.

Yu Zhenzhu has no relatives or friends in this world, and has long regarded Lord Yu as her only spiritual support.

Even though she suspected that Lord Yu's concern for her was not genuine, how could she be willing to face it...

Not far away, Aunt Mei and Lu Zhanyao were leaning against each other.

Lu Zhanyao added, "After Wen Qiqi and I divorce, I will not have a principal wife for the time being. This way, you will be the only one in charge of the house, and you will have the final say."

The pancake is painted sweet and round.

Aunt Mei was born a maid, and the Lu family would never be able to make her their legal wife.

But why did Lu Zhanyao coax Aunt Mei so much? After so many years, she had already accepted her status as a concubine.

Wen Qiqi was confused, but then she heard Lu Zhanyao suddenly lower his voice and say, "Mei'er, I want to ask you for a favor."

"Just say it, my Lord."

Aunt Mei hooked her arm around Lu Zhanyao's neck and said sweetly, "For you, my lord, I am willing to go through fire and water."

"Help me... get rid of Yu Zhenzhu. Just like how I got rid of the baby in Wen Qiqi's belly, it would be best if no one knew about it."

Wen Qiqi immediately looked at Yu Zhenzhu, who was also stunned. Then she widened her eyes and stared at the two people not far away in horror!

Although she knew that the man was ruthless, he was only irresponsible.

I married Lu Zhanyao, and although I was a concubine, I was still favored...

She never dreamed that Lu Zhanyao would ask Aunt Mei to attack her secretly.

Moreover, Wen Qiqi's child back then...

"People like this should go to hell and die!"

Yu Zhenzhu said in a low voice.

Wen Qiqi shook her head, signaling Yu Zhenzhu to calm down. Yu Zhenzhu took two deep breaths and then pricked up her ears to continue listening.

She wanted to find out how Aunt Mei wanted her to die!

Since Lu Zhanyao treated her like this, she must make things clear with Lord Yu. She doesn't believe that Lord Yu can forgive him!

"Sir, are you really going to get rid of the Fifth House? She is Lord Yu's adopted daughter!"

Aunt Mei was indeed afraid: "My Lord and Master Yu are on good terms now, so there won't be any friction over a concubine. I know that my Lord dislikes her and thinks she is unclean. It would be shameful for her to live in the Lu Mansion, but if I get rid of her, what if Master Yu gets angry..."

"It was also Lord Yu's intention to get rid of Yu Zhenzhu."

As soon as these words came out, Yu Zhenzhu almost couldn't breathe and choked to death.

Lu Zhanyao's next words made Yu Zhenzhu heartbroken and in agony.

"Mei'er, I'll tell you today. Lord Yu originally thought that Wen Qiqi couldn't tolerate Yu Zhenzhu, and would definitely not agree to my marrying her into the mansion! In this way, we can spread the word in Kyoto that the daughter of the Wen family is not tolerant enough and is competing for favor with prostitutes!"

"I didn't expect that Wen Qiqi actually agreed. Lord Yu wanted to test my loyalty again... If I marry her, Lord Yu will be satisfied. Eunuchs are always different from normal men in their hearts..."

Lu Zhanyao stroked Aunt Mei's hair and said with a faint smile: "He has lost his life force, so he wants to humiliate others. But as long as he can pave the way for me in the court, I will follow his wishes."

"Your Excellency is right. Nothing is more important than your Excellency and Xingcheng's career."

Aunt Mei leaned on Lu Zhanyao's shoulder and asked, "Why does the master want to get rid of Yu Zhenzhu now?"

"Wen Qiqi and I are getting divorced, and you took the opportunity to get rid of Yu Zhenzhu... Lord Yu said that he would naturally find someone to spread rumors in Kyoto! Think about it, others will suspect who killed Yu Zhenzhu?"

Aunt Mei suddenly realized and said bluntly: "Master Yu and Master are really smart! Don't worry... I just need to do something with Yu Zhenzhu's food and it will be done."

"Her maids were all brought by herself. If you want to do this, you have to start from the kitchen. Then, tomorrow I will let Sheng Shi take over the housekeeping again. Taking advantage of the hot summer... I will send Yu Zhenzhu a bowl of green bean soup every day to relieve the heat."

Lu Zhanyao's hand slowly fell along Aunt Mei's hair...

Yu Zhenzhu would get bored of serving men after a long time.

I still think Aunt Mei and I are more in tune with each other and I feel more connected.

"Mei'er, remember, don't show your hand in the first few days! Wait until Wen Qiqi and I go to the palace to get a divorce, and then you can give me the drug! This way... on the day of the divorce, my favorite concubine will die suddenly... and then I can stage a drama of grief and indignation, and then this matter will be settled, right?"

Such a careful plan is really creepy.

Only then did Yu Zhenzhu realize that if she was not careful in the Lu Mansion, she would lose her life.

Wen Qiqi was definitely not exaggerating at the time.

"Madam, please save me!"
