After selling myself, I became the head of the family

Chapter 57 Nightmare
  Su Yueyue just stared at Nanny Cai blankly, waiting for her next words.

"Twenty years ago, the legitimate second daughter of the Shangshu Mansion married to the Lu Mansion, and three years later she gave birth to her legitimate son, Lu Xingzhou.

In the next seventeen years, General Lu repeatedly made great military exploits. With the addition of the father-in-law of Shangshu Mansion, the emperor began to have a dislike for him.

The most important thing for all generals to be careful about is their superior skills.

But General Lu didn't take it seriously, just because his sister was respected as a noble concubine in the palace.

At the same time, he also believed that his loyalty would be seen by the emperor.

But in the past two years, the emperor has grown old and his suspicions have become more and more serious.

Many people in the court were alert, and the lady had been admonishing the general to remove his armor and return to his fields and return his military power. The general was already moved, but it happened that at this time, the imperial concubine who was in the harem sent someone to deliver a letter overnight. , there was no other words in the letter, except that the emperor was seriously ill and in danger, and someone in the palace was forcing him to go to the palace and asked the general to lead people to rescue him.

But where is the truth?
  But the imperial concubine wanted to see the emperor's fate soon, and she wanted to take the opportunity to let the general lead the army into the palace, so as to push the third prince to the throne.

The general trusted his sister too much and led five thousand troops to the palace.

Although the emperor was critically ill, he had arranged for the imperial guards to secretly ambush him in the palace.

In this way, more than a hundred members of the Lu family died in the capital. "

Aunt Cai's voice was almost trembling.

How ridiculous.

The general had served the country and the people for more than twenty years, but in the end he was killed by his own sister.

There are a total of six princes in the current emperor. Among them, the prince is already twenty-six years old. Although he is the eldest son, he is really stupid and is not the best candidate to be the leader of a country.

The second prince was not born to the queen, and due to the low status of his biological mother, he had never been favored by the emperor.

Although the fourth prince is smart, he never puts his mind on serious matters and indulges in female sex and greed all day long.

One of the fifth and sixth princes was born to the queen, and the other was born to a virtuous concubine, but they are still under thirteen years old.

The third prince was obviously the best candidate, but the imperial concubine was bewitched and lost her mind, so she killed her natal family with a flimsy letter.

"Then, where is the young master?"

Su Yueyue guessed that the identity of the young master and Aunt Cai might be unusual, but she never thought that it would be like this.

No matter how stupid and ignorant she is, she can still understand how dangerous this matter is.

But since the Lu family fell because of this, how could the young master...

"A few years ago, several princes and young masters made an appointment to go hunting in the mountains, but they didn't want to encounter a heavy snowfall that was rare in decades.

When the group was preparing to return, they happened to encounter a black bear that came out to look for food. Everyone fled in all directions. The fifth prince was still young, so the young master took him and hid in the mountains.

Later, the guards searched the mountain for a day and a night, and finally found the young master and the fifth prince in a cave.

Later, the fifth prince said that the guards around him had disappeared at some point when the black bear rushed up. Seeing that the black bear was about to rush in front of him, it was the young master who saved him and then carried the fainted one on his back. He ran for his life all the way into the mountains, and in the end his legs were frozen to death.

It was also the third prince who proposed to go hunting together that time. If you think about it carefully, you can understand all this.

In order to reduce the number of competitors, the third prince even made plans for the young master.

Later, the third prince and the noble concubine were sentenced to death. The emperor gave his wife and the general two cups of poisonous wine, which together with more than a hundred lives of the Lu family were wasted.

The emperor thought that the young master had saved the fifth prince's life and his current appearance, so he let him live.

I had left Lu Mansion a few years ago and returned to the countryside to retire. After hearing about this incident, I hurried to the capital. At that time, the young master’s eyes were dull and his whole body was so thin that a gust of wind could blow him away.

The people who the general and his wife had helped at the beginning all stayed away from the young master.

Later, the magistrate of Qi County heard about the Lu family's affairs and sent a letter asking us to come to Changqing County.

The general once saved his life, and he couldn't just watch his benefactor's heir being bullied.

That's why we came to this place.

The only thing I brought from the Lu family was the purse that my wife gave to the young master. I don’t know what he thinks.

All I know is that we are the only two people left with him in the world now. "

Aunt Cai had already shed tears, and the warm teardrops pattered on the hem of her clothes, and dark flowers blossomed. Su Yueyue also felt that the tip of her nose was slightly sour. Recalling the appearance of the young boy when she first saw her, she felt a little more emotional.

She still knows that her grandfather, grandma, and uncle's family have been sucking her blood, and she can also have a chance to take revenge.

But what about the young master?

Who should he seek to avenge such a huge blood feud?
  The cause of everything is inseparable from the imperial concubine and the third prince, but they have now gone to the underworld.

Looking for revenge against the emperor?
  But it is true that General Lu led the army into the palace when the emperor was critically ill.

If he was a young boy who didn't know anything before, and he was full of blood and wanted to avenge his family, then forget it.

But the young master was literate and was once a smart man in Kyoto.

He knew better than anyone who should be blamed for this incident.

Such a feeling of powerlessness was something Su Yueyue didn't dare to think about.

"Mommy, don't cry, the young master still has us."

Su Yueyue took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the tears from the corners of Nanny Cai's eyes.

"Yes." Grandma Cai nodded, took the handkerchief and wiped her tears, then suddenly remembered the current moment.

"Okay Yueyue, let's move all the bamboo baskets into the warehouse. It's time to go to bed early."

"it is good."

After calming down for a while, the two of them put the two large bamboo baskets into the warehouse and then returned to the house.

As soon as she entered the room and sat down, Grandma Cai felt her throat itch, and then she coughed several times and never stopped.

The violent coughing frightened Su Yueyue, who was next door, to open the door suddenly and lie down in front of the door of Aunt Cai's room with a worried look on her face.

"Mommy, are you okay?"

"No, it's okay. I just drank tea and choked a little."

Her voice came from the room, and Su Yueyue breathed a sigh of relief, and asked if she could go and heat some water for her. After receiving a negative answer, she returned to the room.

When the movement outside the house completely quieted down, Grandma Cai shakily removed the handkerchief covering her mouth.

A bright red blood clot appeared in front of her eyes on the light blue handkerchief.

The fishy-sweet taste in her throat made her feel a little dazed.

It’s only been a month and it’s already so serious?

If one day she can no longer hold on, what should Young Master and Yueyue do?

Grandma Cai has never been so panicked.

She thought half a year would be longer.

But he never thought that his situation would be so serious.

Looking at her wrinkled hands and falling silver threads, she had to admit that she was getting old.

She was only worried that she hadn't taught Yueyue many things yet, and she wasn't sure yet that the young master would really live a good life. She didn't want to leave so early.

After a moment of silence, she put the handkerchief away, rinsed her mouth with tea in the room, and then blew out the oil lamp on the table.

She had to hurry up.

Su Yueyue didn't sleep peacefully all night.

The scene on the day of the fire always appeared in my dreams, especially the scene when the whole house was engulfed in flames after he took his sister over.

It will always become her nightmare.
