Chapter 2 Leaving the Hou Mansion
Lu Wanzhi's slap surprised everyone present. After Sun Kejie received a solid slap, he said angrily, "Lu Wanzhi, how dare you do it?"

Lu Wanzhi asked Yu Zhu who was beside her, "Has my dowry been packed?"

Yuzhu said: "Miss, I have already tidied up."

Lu Wanzhi walked to the desk beside her, took the Li Shu that she had prepared a few days ago, handed it to Sun Ke and said, "You signed the Li Shu, and from then on, marriages between men and women have nothing to do with each other."

Mrs. Sun saw that Lu Wanzhi took out the Heli Shu, and tore the Heli Shu into pieces again and again, "Wanzhi, you beat me too, and you should let go of your anger. Let's just let the matter of Heli be over. People read jokes."

Lu Wanzhi bowed to Mrs. Sun and said, "Mrs. Sun, thank you for taking care of me these three years. I have made up my mind to go. Yulan, go outside the house and call for a carriage."

Mrs. Zhou, Mrs. Yu and others were here to watch the joke, but now they are also anxious.

We are all women, and we all know that it is difficult for women in this world.

Not reconciled, Lu Wanzhi recognized that the outsider was at most being laughed at by others, at least she was still the high-ranking Mrs. Hou, but if it was reconciled, it would be nothing.

It would be fine if Master Lu was still alive, but now that Master Lu has gone to the west, what kind of good family can Lu Wanzhi marry in his second marriage?

All the young wives persuaded Lu Wanzhi one after another: "Mrs. Lu, this Lord Hou is young and has a bright future. It won't do you any good if you get along with him."

"Yeah, it's just an outsider, so what if it's in your name? Why do you have to give up Mrs. Hou's position to that outsider?"

Lu Wanzhi said: "I appreciate the kindness of all the ladies, but I must reconcile this marriage."

Yulan prepared the carriage outside the mansion, and said inside, "Girl, the carriage is ready."

Lu Wanzhi asked her dowry maid to pick up the dressing box and went outside.

Sun Ke looked at Lu Wanzhi's straight back, and frowned slightly. He didn't believe that Lu Wanzhi would really give up her status as Mrs. Hou and want to reconcile, but she was just trying to get her.

Mrs. Sun said anxiously to Sun Ke: "Ke'er, if Wanzhi really wants to get along with her, what should she do?"

Sun Ke said sarcastically: "A woman like her, how can she be willing to make peace with her? It's just because of Bao'er's troubles. The whole Lu family is keeping their filial piety in Ding You, the old house in the south of the Yangtze River. When the Lu family returns to Chang'an, they will not let them She and Li!"

……

At the gate of Marquis Wu'an's Mansion, Lu Wanzhi looked up at the plaque, took a long breath, and finally escaped from this prison.

She especially remembered that when Shiliu got married, she was also very happy. After all, she married the youngest Marquis in this dynasty.

But on the first day of their wedding, they found out that Sun Ke had a concubine outside.

That Liu Yiyi was originally the daughter of a small official's family and Sun Ke was a childhood sweetheart, but once his father's corruption case was brought to light, Liu Yiyi was reduced to a lowly status in the teaching workshop, and was raised by Sun Ke as a concubine.

When Liu Yiyi learned that Sun Ke was married, she wanted to commit suicide that night. Because of the deep love between the two of them, Sun Ke promised Liu Yiyi not to set foot in the wife's house.

Three years ago, Lu Wanzhi wanted to reconcile, but at that time she just got married, and her grandfather was seriously ill. Lu Wanzhi didn't want her grandfather to worry, and the family weighed heavily on her grandfather's illness to endure it.

Although Sun Ke is a scum, his mother-in-law is not bad. The mother-in-law persuaded Lu Wanzhi that she is the wife of the housewife and she is beautiful. One day Sun Ke will know that the husband and wife are more important than the wife.

Later, when his grandfather died of illness, the whole family went back to the old house to observe their filial piety. Even if Lu Wanzhi wanted to reconcile, he had to communicate with his parents. The separation between the two places would only cause his parents to worry, so Lu Wanzhi endured it for three years.

Concerned about the reputation of her younger sister in the past three years, Lu Wanzhi also tried her best to be the head of the house and manage the back house of the Hou's mansion.

Never thought that Sun Ke could do such a shameless thing, let her recognize his concubine as her son, Lu Wanzhi couldn't bear this humiliation anymore!

"Wanzhi!"

When Lu Wanzhi heard a female voice, she turned around and saw that it was Jiang Suling, her close friend.

Jiang Suling married the adoptive son of King Chu of Mingzhou three years ago, and she hasn't seen her for a long time.

Jiang Suling held the congratulatory gift in her hand and said: "I heard that you have a newborn son, so I came here to congratulate you without invitation!"

Yuzhu bowed to Jiang Suling and said: "Miss Jiang, you don't know, that child is not my daughter's, but my uncle raised it in the outer room outside."

Jiang Suling was surprised: "What? This Marquis of Wu'an's mansion is really deceiving people, right? I'm going to help you get justice."

Jiang Suling is the daughter of a military general, so she can't see her friend being bullied.

Lu Wanzhi said: "No need, I have already mentioned the matter of reconciliation with Sun Ke, but why did you come back from Mingzhou?"

Jiang Suling smiled and said: "Speaking of which, I still have something to ask you when I come back from Mingzhou this time. Let's find a place to talk?"

Lu Wanzhi said: "I'm going to Lu Yuan now, why don't you come with me to Lu Yuan?"

"Okay."

Jiang Suling followed Lu Wanzhi into the carriage, and arrived at Lu Yuan after three quarters of an hour.

Lu Garden is under Ming Mountain, this is the manor in Lu Wanzhi's dowry, and not far away is the famous Qinglan Academy.

When friends meet, there are always endless things to talk about. Jiang Suling and Lu Wanzhi talked about the customs of Mingzhou.

Lu Wanzhi said quite yearningly: "Speaking of which, Mingzhou is next to my hometown. If I had known that I would not be married by then, I would go to Mingzhou with you."

Jiang Suling asked: "Did Sun Ke treat you badly all these years?"

Lu Wanzhi didn't have anything to hide in front of her friends, so she told Jiang Suling that Sun Ke had not entered her room for the past three years.

Jiang Suling took a deep breath when she heard the words: "This Sun Ke is really nothing. If it weren't for Uncle Lu Ding You, it would be his turn to be the servant? You shouldn't have stopped me from beating him just now!"

Lu Wanzhi entered Lu Yuan, and said with a smile: "I've already beaten him, you are now the wife of Prince Chu's adopted son, and every move you make represents the Prince Chu's residence..."

"It is precisely because I represent the Chu Palace that I can beat him!" Jiang Suling said with righteous indignation, "It's crazy to let such a big beauty not want this dog!"

"He thought he was great just because he was Lord Hou. Without the help of Lu family students, how could his official career be so magnanimous. It really pissed me off."

Seeing her friend getting angry, Lu Wanzhi said with a smile, "Okay, okay, let's drink some tea to calm down the anger. I have decided to make up with you. Why are you here today?"

Jiang Suling took a sip of tea and said, "It's really embarrassing to say it, but do you know Chu Xiaojun?"

Lu Wanzhi said: "I haven't seen him before, but I have heard of his reputation. He is an ignorant dude, a bully that no one in Chang'an dares to mess with."

Jiang Suling wondered: "You also know that the king of Chu has been guarding Mingzhou for our great prosperity. This Chu Xiaojun king is the youngest grandson of the empress dowager. His uncle is the emperor, and his aunt is the empress. He has no mother since childhood. This empress dowager Doting more with the queen."

Although Lu Wanzhi had never met Chu Xiaojun King, he was very familiar with the reputation of Chu Xiaojun King, and the princes had to give him three points of courtesy.

Although he is the prince of the county, he was brought up by the empress dowager in the palace since he was a child. The empress cherishes her younger sister, Princess Chu, who died young, and loves the children left by her sister very much.

The Empress Dowager loved the King of Chu even more, and the King of Chu went to Mingzhou to guard the territory. He was afraid of melting this little grandson, and fearing that his palm would be broken if he held it in his hands.

As for His Majesty and the King of Chu, they are siblings of the same mother, and they have a very good relationship with each other, and they also love their younger brother's youngest son who stayed in Chang'an.

Jiang Suling continued: "No, the pirates in the East China Sea are calm now. The king of Chu felt that the king of the small county should marry a wife, so he returned to Chang'an. Beat the little county king hard."

Lu Wanzhi took a sip of tea and said, "What right does the king of Chu have to beat the little county king? As a father, he didn't take care of his son, so he beat up the little county king when he came back. What's the point?"

Jiang Suling chuckled lightly and said: "The little county king also went back to the prince of Chu in the same way. He was so angry that the prince of Chu asked the prince of the small county to go to study and understand the truth first. No one who ever wanted to find the master would not teach the prince of the small county. All over Chang'an Academy, those academy deans would rather offend the Chu Palace than take in the Chu Xiaojun King."

Lu Wanzhi understood that there is a Qinglan Academy in the Lu family, which was opened by the ancestors, it has been a hundred years ago, and there have been many top scholars in these hundred years, it is the best academy in Chang'an City.

Everyone in the Lu family went back to the old house to observe their filial piety. For the past three years, Qinglan Academy was indeed managed by Lu Wanzhi.

"You want Chu Xiaojun Wang to come to Qinglan Academy?"

Jiang Suling nodded and said, "Wanzhi, you can just give him a seat in the auditorium. I think he won't mess around after being beaten. It's fine if you make things difficult."

"It's okay, just let him come to Qinglan Academy's yellow character class tomorrow."

Lu Wanzhi immediately agreed that this year Qinglan College will open two classes for young children. I heard that the Prince of Chu Xiaojun doesn't even know the thousand-character prose for children's enlightenment, so it happens that they can learn together.
