Transformed into a furry person, I am doing public relations in the Northern Song Dynasty
Chapter 203 1 A flash of murderous intent
Lord Chen was very straightforward and directly assigned one person to them. While speaking, he casually flipped through the account book and couldn't help showing a look of surprise.
"Madam Liu, just go about your business. I can investigate this as soon as possible and get your bookshop back to business as soon as possible."
After saying this, Lord Chen didn't even bother to give the two of them any more looks. He put on a gloomy face and hurriedly took the account book and led his men to the south of the city.
Zhao Chengyan put his hands behind his back and hooked his fingers casually. Several people in the crowd retreated silently and headed towards the south of the city.
Arriving at the door of Lu's residence, Cheng Li walked straight forward and knocked on the door. His loud voice penetrated the thick ebony door.
"Kaifeng Mansion is investigating a case. Someone from the host's house is here to open the door!"
After shouting three times, the door didn't move at all, and there was no response from inside. Lord Chen's face darkened. He thought Lu Zhen was going to flee for fear of punishment, so Cheng Li and others had to be prepared to break in. Then he heard an impatient voice from inside.
"Who are you? What case? My wife said we won't see any visitors, so go back to where you came from!"
The person who answered the question from inside the door was probably a young servant. Hearing that the Kaifeng Mansion was handling the case, they did not show any panic at all, and were even unwilling to open the door a crack. It can be seen that the Lu Mansion is really a "high-ranking family" and people from the yamen are not even qualified to enter.
Seeing that Lord Chen had hit a wall, Cheng Li was about to argue with him, but he didn't have the time to argue with a little boy. Lord Chen stretched out his hand to stop Cheng Li and spoke in a deep voice.
"You, a little slave, are not qualified to be your master's master. Go tell your mistress that if you don't want Lu Lu to go to jail, you should cooperate with the government in handling the case. If you don't get a reply within half an hour, I will ask your mistress to go to the government prison to serve your master!"
The Lu Mansion was always crowded with people. Many people who came to ask for favors or use connections could not even step foot inside the door, so the gatekeepers like them benefited a lot from this.
I'm used to looking down on people on a daily basis, and I've never met anyone as tough as this one.
For a moment, the boy didn't know what the group outside was doing. He quickly signaled to someone to watch the door, and then he ran to the main courtyard.
It's no wonder that he drove people out without asking any questions. The main courtyard was bustling with activity at the moment. The master had been bedridden for a long time and was not getting better, so the girls in the backyard were also worried.
It is true that they are favored on weekdays, but the mistress Qu is a powerful woman. She controls the money in the mansion tightly and keeps a close eye on the people. Several girls have been in the mansion for several years, but none of them has become pregnant.
In this huge mansion, only Qu has a little boy, and he is only six years old.
Seeing that the master was not getting better, they were probably because of the brain injury he had suffered in the past, and he was not lucid for many moments. The girls didn't know what they were saying in private, but they just felt that the master probably wouldn't live long.
Once the master dies, it will be Qu who will take over the young master's management of all matters at home and outside. Wouldn't she treat them even more harshly?
Coincidentally, one of the girls found out that she was pregnant, and the baby was conceived half a month before Lu Xun's accident. After that, Qu asked someone to send her contraceptive soup as usual, but the child was lucky enough to escape the disaster.
Now Qu had no time to take care of her. The girls discussed it and slapped their heads, thinking that if they wanted to live a good life in the future, they would have to rely on this child, and the young man would not be able to be in charge.
But Qu loved her children like the apple of her eye, and married off eight or nine of them, leaving no chance for her to take action. So she planned to wait for Lu Yan to wake up one day and then frame him.
As long as the master has said this, even if she faints again, no one in the mansion will dare to listen. By then, no matter how powerful Qu is, she will not be able to touch them.
And this is what is happening now.
Lu Qie finally sobered up for a while today and was just about to call the manager to ask about business matters when he saw a commotion outside.
The young woman held her belly and cried out in pain. Lu Lu called a doctor to see her. She knew she was going to have another child. Before she could be happy, she heard people saying that his son was going to kill her and that Qu was trying to force them to death.
Lu Lun knew long ago that Qu had turned against him, and the reason why the couple could continue to be together was only because this marriage was arranged for him by his uncle Liu Qing, and Qu was really capable, and the family really could not do without her.
But he had only been ill for a short time when Qu had already caused trouble for him and touched his beloved, which was really infuriating.
Lu Qie called Qu over and gave her a scolding without saying anything, but she fainted again before he finished scolding her. The girls felt relieved when they saw this, but no one knew how Qu felt.
Regardless of her hard work and contributions over the years, and her efforts for Lu Lu recently, according to the rules, it is not appropriate for a husband to scold his wife in front of his concubine.
How could her wife put her face aside?
How can you convince others in the future?
What's more, it was the young woman who framed them both by slandering them.
Qu stared at the unconscious Lu Lu with her dark eyes, and she really wanted to kill him.
Just at this time, the maid came to report: "Madam, something bad has happened. The gatekeeper outside said that someone from the government office came to our house. We don't know what case they want to investigate. They said that if the investigation is not clear, the master will have to go to jail!"
Qu turned her head to look at the little girl beside her. The murderous look in her eyes frightened the little girl so much that she took two steps back and knelt on the ground. She looked up tremblingly, only to find that her wife had regained her usual calmness. The look just now seemed to be just a momentary illusion.
"The government is handling the case? What government is it?"
The little girl replied: "It is Kaifeng Prefecture."
Mrs. Qu nodded, not feeling nervous at all: "Since an official from the Kaifeng government is here to visit, why don't you open the door quickly to welcome him? Don't be disrespectful."
"Qing Que, you stay here to look after the master, and Qing Lu, you take the young lady back to her room. She is a twin now. Since the master treasures her, she should not be exposed to the wind again."
"Send a few other girls along to keep him company. They have a good relationship and staying together won't make them lonely."
With just a few words, Qu quickly ended the farce in the room. All the girls had their mouths gagged and their arms tied, and they couldn't even whimper.
Who dares to fight me?
Qu just snorted coldly. She used to look down on them and didn't want to do anything serious because of Lu Yan's face. But now that the trouble has come to her, she has no reason to live!
As for Lu Xun, Qu was even more disdainful of him.
This good-for-nothing, who relies on his uncle outside and on her, the mistress, at home, used to show off his ability when he was in good health, but now that he is sick, it can be seen that it doesn't matter whether he is at home or not.
Look at what good things he has done after waking up. If the government wants to take him away, just take him away!
Without even looking at the person in the room who made her upset, Qu adjusted the jade hairpin on her temples and walked towards the front hall with her companions.
She wanted to see what these government officials were up to.
