Chapter 43 Feigning Release, the Scheme Begins
My head was spinning, and I don't know how many days had passed.
Just when the mother and son felt increasingly hopeless, the door to the woodshed suddenly opened.
A beautiful woman they had never seen before walked in. She looked young, but her clothes were unusually luxurious. She hurried up to the two of them and said with a guilty expression.
"I'm sorry to have troubled you, Madam and Young Master Lü. My master specially sent me to let you two out. All the medicine, wine, food, and clean clothes have been prepared. Please wash up properly first. My master will come to apologize in person later."
When they heard the words "apology," both mother and son were somewhat dazed.
He insisted on making them apologize, but now that he's been locked up for a while, he's the one apologizing to himself?
Lu Yi felt dizzy and couldn't figure out the reason, but her mother's years of experience managing the household made her somewhat suspicious, so she asked a rather alert question.
"Who are you? What do you mean? Are you asking us to leave?"
"Madam Lü, please rest assured. I am a concubine from the Vice Minister's residence, surnamed Zhao. Although my husband was angry and tied you two up before, he originally thought that as long as Young Master Lü bowed his head and admitted his mistake, he would let it go. Who knew that when my husband went to see the second young lady, he was accidentally knocked to the ground, broke his bones, and was unconscious for several days. Now that he has woken up, he heard that you two are still locked up, so he immediately sent me to release you. Alas, I am sorry, Madam, I only gave such an order in a moment of anger. Please do not take offense, Madam Lü!"
Upon hearing this, how could Mother Lü possibly remain seated?
Her eyes were bloodshot, and she looked like she wanted to eat someone alive. After Aunt Zhao untied her, she became furious and angry.
"Pah! Do you think I'm stupid enough not to see that your Vice Minister's Mansion is playing good cop/bad cop? Vice Minister Chi could fall and be unconscious? You're kidding me! Even if he's incapable of taking charge, there's no one else in the family to help come up with ideas, and that bitch Guo has been detaining us for so long!"
Hearing Lu's mother jump up and down cursing, Aunt Zhao felt secretly pleased.
But he still put on a troubled expression, and then looked at Lu's mother and comforted her.
"Madam Lü, you've really wronged our family. Ever since the incident, news of the second young lady's failed suicide attempt has reached the old lady's courtyard. She was so agitated that she fell ill and couldn't even take her medicine. How could she possibly make any decisions? Miss He is so frightened that she doesn't even dare to return to Hanxue Pavilion and has moved in with the eldest young lady. Now she doesn't dare to step out of Sijin Courtyard. We heard that the Marquis's mansion is also going to take them away for a short stay. How could she possibly manage this mess? Besides, I'm just a concubine who has only recently entered the mansion. Even the steward has to listen carefully to his words. How could I possibly stand up for you?"
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, and without any sign of disgust, she pulled on Mother Lü's arm and began to speak.
"Please believe me, Madam, if we could spare even one person, we wouldn't have had to keep you locked up for so long. After all, Young Master Lü's engagement to our second young lady is still in effect. Surely we wouldn't want to build up such a deep-seated grudge against our future in-laws!"
"You think so?"
Aunt Zhao was always good at crying and pleading, which even Chi Yunjing couldn't handle, let alone Mother Lü.
She was also afraid while being locked up.
She was afraid that the Vice Minister's Mansion would really disregard everything and take her son's life, then where would she go to seek justice? But now, hearing Aunt Zhao's words implying that this marriage still needed to be acknowledged, she was momentarily speechless.
After a moment of contemplation, he squatted down to support his poor son, then looked up and said fiercely.
"Aren't you going to untie it?"
Aunt Zhao is flexible and adaptable. What's the big deal about untying this stinking young master Lü's ropes?
He immediately squatted down to help and then shouted outside.
"Quickly bring in a stretcher and take Young Master Lü to the courtyard to change his clothes. Also, send someone to fetch a doctor to examine Young Master Lü and Madam Lü and see if there is anything amiss!"
"Yes, Aunt Zhao."
Hearing Aunt Zhao's words, Mother Lü's mind gradually calmed down.
When her son was carried out, both mother and son reflexively raised their hands to shield their eyes from the scorching sun. They didn't know how many days they had been locked up or what time it was. All she knew was that she was about to spoil, so she didn't say a word and followed Aunt Zhao toward the small courtyard.
As a result, not long after he stepped out of the woodshed, Madam Guo arrived with seven or eight menacing old women.
"Outrageous! Aunt Zhao, how dare you make decisions about this household? You think you can just release these two wretches like that? My second daughter is still lying in bed, her life hanging in the balance! What right do you have to let them out!"
The moment he finished speaking, a slap came flying at him.
Aunt Zhao deliberately feigned innocence, and to demonstrate how hard the slap was, she fell to the ground with the force of the fall. This caused Mother Lü, who was standing next to her, to slip as well, and land on her bottom with a thud, causing her to gasp in pain.
"You're going to die! Does your Vice Minister's Mansion have any chance of survival? Don't forget, my daughter is a Consort in the palace! Guo, what are you, you lowly woman? How dare you detain us for so many days! Believe me or not, I'll have the Consort execute you!"
Mother Lü was a woman with a sharp tongue, and even after being locked up for so many days, she still managed to get angry when the time was right.
"Execute me? Hahahaha, what a joke! You can't even leave the gate of my Vice Minister's residence, and you want to execute me?"
As Madam Guo spoke, she stepped forward and kicked Mother Lü several times, then leaned closer with a fierce look in her eyes and said.
"Your son ruined my second sister, so don't even think about leaving the Vice Minister's mansion peacefully."
He then glanced at the extremely weak Lü Yi on the stretcher, gave a mocking smile, and said, "Throw him back into the woodshed. I want him to be thoroughly dead and rotting before I can quell my hatred!"
These days, Madam Guo has been taking care of Chi Guiying.
It can be said that every time Chi Guiying suffered, it was inflicted tenfold or a hundredfold on her. Therefore, Madam Guo had long been itching to get rid of them, but she just hadn't had the time to deal with them.
Upon hearing that Aunt Zhao dared to release people without permission, how could I sit still? I immediately brought people over. Fortunately, they were stopped. Otherwise, even if the two of them had escaped from the Vice Minister's residence, I would have pursued the matter to the end and given my daughter justice!
"You! How dare you!"
"No matter how bold I am, I'm not as bold as your son. With the innocence of so many women combined, even if he doesn't get the death penalty, he should at least be exiled three thousand miles away!"
Threatened, Lu's mother was unable to refute the argument for the time being.
The woman in front of me, Madam Guo, is clearly insane. It's not impossible that she would insist on sending Shao Tong to jail, regardless of her daughter's reputation.
I'm so confused right now, I really don't know what to do.
Her hesitation caused the old women following behind Madam Guo to swarm forward.
