They looked like they'd seen a ghost.
His own commander was cold and indifferent to everyone. No matter how beautiful the prisoner was, he would not show her any mercy once she was in his hands.
But now?
Their commander, dressed in a dark brocade robe, was leading a delicate young woman in a smoky purple dress. His eyes and brows were filled with a tenderness they had never seen before, and his pace slowed down to match the woman's steps, showing consideration in every way.
Wen Yuanshu's cheeks flushed slightly. She tried to pull her hand away several times but couldn't. She said helplessly, "Lu Chengyuan, can't we just go our separate ways?"
She felt a little embarrassed doing this in front of so many people.
Lu Chengyuan looked down at her, his eyes full of laughter: "You want to go your separate ways while you're with me? Are you still asleep?"
As he spoke, Lu Chengyuan applied even more force to his hands.
He glanced around the courtyard, and when they met his gaze, everyone quickly lowered their heads and hurried away, disappearing completely in an instant.
Now, Wen Yuanshu was speechless.
To get to the dungeon, one has to pass through almost the entire Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters; it's quite a journey.
Having finally arrived, Wen Yuanshu frowned slightly as she stood at the dungeon entrance.
She had been to other dungeons.
When the entire Pei family was imprisoned, the scene was...
"Don't be afraid," Lu Chengyuan put his arm around her shoulder, "I'm here for you."
The dungeons of the Embroidered Uniform Guard are now so clean they rival those of an inn.
Wen Yuanshu nodded, held his hand tightly, and followed him through the extremely narrow door.
After walking along this corridor, which was only wide enough for one person to pass through, for a long time, until Wen Yuanshu was getting a little annoyed, the view in front of her suddenly opened up.
"Commander, Miss Wen." The Embroidered Uniform Guards responsible for guarding the dungeon bowed to the two of them.
Lu Chengyuan kept walking, holding Wen Yuanshu's hand and leading her deeper into the area.
Wen Jing and Wen Tianming's cells were on the outermost side, just a few steps away.
The Embroidered Uniform Guards, who had been waiting nearby, opened the doors to the two cells and retreated outside.
"Big brother." Wen Yuanshu entered Wen Jing's cell impatiently, her eyes filled with undisguised concern.
Wen Jing smiled and raised his hand to gently pat her head twice: "Big brother is fine, don't worry."
He wasn't just being stubborn.
Seeing that his clothes were clean and neat, and that the prison cell was also so well-organized, Wen Yuanshu knew that he had not suffered any hardship, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "Sister-in-law was very worried about you."
Upon hearing her mention Madam Wen, Wen Jing's eyes darkened: "Is she alright?"
Wen Yuanshu shook her head: "My sister-in-law was seriously ill, but fortunately she had Wangyou with her, so she's fine now, but she's unhappy all the time."
Wen Jing pursed his lips and finally sighed, "I'm the one who let her down."
Just then, a weak voice came from the next cell: "Yuan Shu, do you remember you have a second brother...?"
Wen Yuanshu subconsciously looked at the person who spoke, and almost didn't recognize him for a moment.
Compared to Wen Jing, Wen Tianming was much more disheveled, with his hair and clothes in a mess. However, perhaps this was what a real prisoner looked like.
"Second brother..." Wen Yuanshu's expression was complicated, "You're still alive."
"What are you saying..." Wen Tianming said resentfully, "Yuan Shu, you should control your husband. Look at the living conditions of your eldest brother, and then look at me. This kind of preferential treatment is unacceptable. I will be his second brother in the future!"
Although he was complaining, it has to be said that this was the first time Wen Tianming had spoken a sensible word in a long time.
Lu Chengyuan's eyebrows twitched, and his gaze, filled with a hint of expectation, fell on Wen Yuanshu.
Wen Yuanshu blushed slightly and handed the letter written by the Second Madam to Wen Tianming: "This is from your second sister-in-law."
Wen Tianming's eyes lit up, and he reached out and took the letter.
However, as I looked at it, the smile on my face faded.
Wen Yuanshu couldn't help but ask curiously, "What did your second sister-in-law say to you?"
