The mistress of the Hou family went crazy after doting on concubines and killing their wives.

Chapter 174: Concern leads to chaos
Lu Wan stared out the window, waiting for Yan Yunhe to tell her the result. It was getting dark and no one was there yet.

"At dawn, is Qing Ming nearby? Do you want him to go and see what's going on? Come and tell me quickly."

Mingxia choked and replied honestly: "He is nearby. I'll go tell him right now."

Lu Wan didn't notice her embarrassment and was filled with anxiety.

Imperial power is treacherous, and everything can change in an instant.

In his previous life, the emperor turned a blind eye to the cries and pleas of the empress and the prince and princess. Will he be as ruthless in this life?

Lu Wan refused to change and leaned on the imperial concubine's couch by the window, holding her eyelids open and closing them unconsciously.

Just as the sound of gentle footsteps approached, a blast of cold air hit her, and Lu Wan suddenly woke up.

When he opened his eyes, he saw a tall black figure with a cold air standing in front of him.

She jumped up immediately and grabbed his arm in desperation: "Why are you here so late? I'm so worried. How is the eldest princess?"

Xie Zhiyan looked down at her jade-green fingers, and his tone became gentler inadvertently: "If you don't wait until the matter of the eldest princess comes to an end, won't you be more anxious?"

"So what's going on now? Tell me quickly." Lu Wan ignored his eyes and pulled him to the chair.

Xie Zhiyan: "The eldest princess is fine. She returned to the eldest princess's mansion with the queen, accompanied by five imperial doctors."

"That's good. The princess will feel better if she is with you. What else?" Lu Wan breathed a sigh of relief, but was anxious to know more.

"The imperial edict of peace has been sent to the eldest princess's mansion. She is now free." Xie Zhiyan looked at the girl in front of him.

"Really? Divorced?" Lu Wan's eyes widened in excitement, and she repeatedly touched her hands in surprise.

This is the happiest first thing in my life.

The eldest princess finally got rid of the bad luck of marriage.

"His Majesty ordered the Ministry of Rites to draft a decree to designate the eldest princess as a first-class princess of the country."

Lu Wan's eyes shone and she continued to smile: "What about the beast?"

"Your Majesty said he deserves to die and leave it to the princess to deal with it herself."

Only then did Lu Wan really relieve all the depression in her heart, "This kind of beast can be cut into pieces with a thousand cuts!"

"The queen seems to have the idea of ​​deposing herself."

"Ah?" Lu Wan was worried again, "Is Your Majesty angry?"

"Of course." Xie Zhiyan looked around her boudoir, "You are getting married in a few days. Are you ready for your wedding clothes?"

He suddenly changed the topic. Lu Wan's brain hadn't come back yet, and her mouth was faster than her brain: "What kind of wedding dress do you need to marry a dead person..."

He regretted it before he finished speaking, and quickly glanced at the other person, his displeasure visible to the naked eye.

Ruined.

Xie Zhiyan felt that he had cheated such a good girl. Even if he gave her a divorce letter and she could leave whenever she wanted, after all, the marriage was stained and she could not remarry to a higher family.

"The wedding dress has been prepared, why don't you take a look?" Lu Wan saw him frown slightly, fearing that he would think he had neglected Xie Zhiyan's wedding, so she quickly stood up and shouted outside.

"Zhiruo, Xiyan, take out my wedding dress."

Zhiruo and Xiyan, who were waiting outside, came in with surprise when they heard this. Without asking any questions, they went next door to take out the brocade box containing the wedding dress and brought it in.

Xie Zhiyan frowned, waved his hand to signal them to leave, and scolded: "How can you let a stranger see your wedding dress?"

Lu Wan: "..."

It’s really awkward to have you finish everything.

She pretended to smile casually: "You are not a strange man."

Xie Zhiyan glanced at her quickly and quickly changed the subject: "How long do you plan to resettle the victims in your house?"

Is it possible that the victims will still live here after she gets married?

"I originally wanted to discuss with Sister Yuyi to provide living expenses to the victims who are registered on the list. Those who are unwilling to go back can be arranged to work as slaves in various farms for a period of time, so that they can have some income. But something happened to Sister Yuyi, and it is not convenient to deal with it. ”

Lu Wan was a little embarrassed.

It's not that I don't have enough money, but I don't want to show off too much.

"You don't have to worry about this. I'll let the Ministry of Household Affairs handle it." Xie Zhiyan stood up and walked out.

Lu Wan hurriedly picked up her skirt and followed her to see her off. Unexpectedly, he reached the door very quickly and suddenly stopped and turned around. Without stopping, she threw herself into someone's arms.

Xie Zhiyan subconsciously stretched out his arms to support her arms and lifted her up: "It's so frizzy."

The low and hoarse voice made Lu Wan's ears turn red, and she couldn't help but mutter: "Who knew you would stop suddenly."

Xie Zhiyan looked down at the head of his head that smelled of sweet-scented osmanthus: "Take care of yourself and don't meddle in other people's business."

Lu Wan looked up, just in time to see the delicately contoured chin, and then realized that she was too close.

He quickly took a step back and said, "Thank you very much, Master Yan. I would like to send you my best wishes."

Xie Zhiyan stared at the top of her head, wanting to give a few more instructions, but felt it was inappropriate.

He thought of what Emperor Heng said to test him. If he cared too much about Lu Wan, she would be noticed. After all, he had offended too many powerful people.

Xie Zhiyan thought for a while, then blurted out out of nowhere: "Don't let strange men enter your boudoir in the future. My little daughter should pay attention to her family's reputation."

Lu Wan was stunned and looked up at the tall figure leaving.

"Didn't you come in by yourself? I didn't invite you."

It wasn't until no one could be seen that Lu Wan returned to the room full of thoughts.

Mingxiao followed closely and explained cautiously: "Qing Ming went to inquire, but Master Yan said he would come in person, so he didn't come to report the news." Lu Wan's mind was not here and she just hummed.

Without seeing Sister Yuyi's condition with my own eyes, I always feel unsure.

The next day, Lu Wan hurried to the eldest princess's mansion early in the morning.

Seeing the white cotton cloth wrapped around Li Yuyi's neck, Lu Wan's face turned pale. She didn't care to salute Feng Wenjun and ran to the bed with her skirt in hand.

"Oh my God, is my sister hurt deeply?"

"It's okay, there's no bleeding anymore." Feng Wenjun said with a smile.

Li Yuyi didn't dare to move his head or speak. He blinked and smiled slightly.

Lu Wan breathed a sigh of relief and then saluted Feng Wenjun: "Wan'er has met my maid."

"No courtesy, you don't need to make these false courtesy when you see me in the future."

Feng Wenjun held her hand lovingly: "Good boy, thank you for always staying with Yi'er."

Lu Wan felt ashamed: "It's my sister who has always protected me."

She raised her eyes and looked at Li Yuyi: "Sister, what are you going to do with that beast? It's not appropriate to delay the matter any longer, lest His Majesty change his mind."

Feng Wenjun's face sank, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Kill him! I will order someone to beat him to death in public soon!"

"inappropriate."

Lu Wan looked at the four pairs of eyes staring at her and said slowly: "Sister Yuyi and my maid cannot kill people, it has to be done by the Lu family."

Li Yuyi opened his eyes wide and asked in a hoarse and low voice: "Are they willing?"

Feng Wenjun frowned: "What if they perfunctory us?"

"Your Majesty only issued an order for peace and separation, but did not order Sister Yuyi to take action. My sister has nothing to do with that beast, so in what name can she kill him? If he is said to have violated the law, the government will kill him according to the law. It's not our turn to take action. If my sister and my maid take action, it will be a lynching. This matter is big or small."

When Lu Wan said this, Feng Wenjun's face turned dark.

"It turns out he wants Yi'er to gain a bad name!"

Li Yuyi was sad: "Why did my father treat me like this?"

Lu Wan sneered in her heart. His Majesty always only considers his own interests. He does not want to offend the nobles, but also wants to appease Li Yuyi and the common people's anger.

"I wonder how injured the beast is?"

Sui Ru replied: "The imperial doctor changed his medicine this morning. He woke up, but he seemed a little confused and didn't recognize him."

Lu Wan raised her eyebrows, were you fooled?

Haha too.

The bronze crane candlestick she was holding was heavy and hard. She hit the skull with a bang and made a bloody hole. Wasn't that stupid?
Feng Wenjun stood up: "I will personally take him to the Lu family and let them kill him in public!"

"Ma'am, if it's not suitable, I'll go." Lu Wan stood up.

"Wan'er, no." Feng Wenjun frowned: "You can't be involved anymore."

"I was present when Lu Qianzhi bullied my sister, and I am a witness. In addition, I am an outsider, and Mrs. Lu cannot hate me. Don't worry, ma'am. I will help my sister get it back for this!" Lu Wan said and ran away. The courtyard where Lu Qianzhi was imprisoned.

"Chief Su."

"My subordinates are here, what do you want Miss Lu to do?" Guard Chief Su led his men to guard the entrance of the courtyard.

"Take him to the gate of Marquis Wenxin's mansion."

"Yes."

Lu Wan took the guards and carried Lu Qianzhi on a stretcher when they saw Yan Yunhe arriving with others as soon as he left the eldest princess's house.

With a straight face: "What do you want to do again?"

He spends his days dishonestly preparing for marriage in the house, wandering around and causing trouble.

Lu Wan said reasonably: "I will ask Lu Chongshan to obey the emperor's will and let his bastard son die."

"Only you can make Lu Chongshan submit? You are not killing his son, but stepping on his face."

Xie Zhiyan looked at the girl jumping vigorously and felt a little angry.

"How unbecoming is it for a daughter's family to go to someone else's house and scream and kill her? Do you still want your reputation?"

Unable to bear it, he stepped forward, grabbed her arm and pulled her aside: "At dawn, get your girl into the carriage and go back home."

Dawn lowered her head, walked over quickly, and grabbed Lu Wan: "Girl, let's get in the car?"

Lu Wan glared at her: "Did you file the complaint?"

Mingxiao shook his head repeatedly: "No, no! It's Qing Ming, he went to complain, no, no, he was just worried about the big girl, afraid that you would be bullied, so he went to send reinforcements."

"I'll settle the score with you when I get back!" Lu Wan nodded fiercely at Mingxiao's forehead.

He struggled to break free from her hand and ran back to Xie Zhiyan, with a flattering look on his face: "Master Yan, please, let me watch from the side, okay? I promise not to say anything. I hate him for insulting my sister Yuyi, and I have to stand in for sister Yuyi. I watched this beast being beaten to death with my own eyes!”

The girl's almond-shaped eyes were reddish and she gritted her teeth.

Xie Zhiyan's heart moved slightly.

He has a temper that is determined to retaliate, and his heart softens: "Then sit on the carriage and you are not allowed to get off, and you are not allowed to show your face."

Lu Wan nodded vigorously: "I listen to Master Yan."

Happy May Day, little ancestors, are you stuck on the road?
