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

After Lu Wan took a bath, she leaned on the bed and flipped through a storybook, trying to get sleepy. She didn't expect that dawn would come back soon.

"Big girl, book!"

"What book?" Lu Wan stuffed the short story under her pillow, but she still hadn't recovered from the plot of the short story.

"Zhao Ruyi's books." Mingxiao's eyes were bright and excited.

"Ah! It's so fast, show me quickly." Lu Wan was overjoyed.

Dawn handed over a small wooden box, "Qing Ming said that Master Yan went to Kaifeng Mansion in person. The governor did not dare to stop him and took out the book himself. This is the rubbing he wrote himself."

Lu Wan didn't expect Yan Yunhe to be so powerful. She opened it and took a closer look, staring at it for a long time.

Although it was a bit rewarding, it was also a bit disappointing.

The book records that Zhao Ruyi's native place is the old lady's natal home in Anzhou, and her name is Zhao Ruyi.

The birthplace of the two children was indeed naturalized in Jiangning Prefecture where their father was the prefect. The father's name recorded in the books was Yu Huanshui.

Yu Huanshui can ask someone to investigate again, and maybe they can find out by following the clues.

But Jiangning Mansion is so big, how can we check it.

"Qing Ming said that Master Hou spent five hundred taels of silver to correct this book."

Lu Wan glared at her: "Can you finish your sentence at once? Why did you become so stupid after seeing Qing Ming?"

The tips of Mingxiao's ears turned red and she quickly said: "Before she entered the capital, her real name was Meng Ruyi. When she came to the capital to register, the Marquis spent a lot of money to change her surname to Zhao. Mr. Fu Yin said that her original place of origin could not be found."

"You really didn't find it?"

This is the most important evidence.

"Qing Ming said that the Kaifeng Mansion did not dare to destroy the books. He said that Meng Ruyi's books were gone, so he must have taken Master Hou's money to make an excuse. I think... Master Yan has a way to get everything."

Lu Wan was confused, "Then what does he mean?"

Dawn struggled for a long time, "Qing Ming's original words were that the girl used Master Yan's jade pendant in exchange for such a worthless piece of news. She looked down upon the token sent by Master Yan. In fact, the slave didn't understand what he meant. Qing Ming couldn't make a fuss. What does Master Qingyan mean?"

Keepsake?

Lu Wan's eyes widened, why did it become a token? Isn't it just that you need his credentials if you need something?
"Have you met Yan Yunhe?"

Liming nodded, "After one glance, I feel that Master Yan is not very happy."

Lu Wan tilted her head and thought for a long time.

Is he unhappy?

Is it because she didn't take his promise seriously?

"Did you return the jade pendant?"

"No."

"If I don't pay you back, why should I pay attention to you?" Lu Wan was speechless.

"My servant doesn't understand either. However, Qing Ming whispered that he thinks Master Yan wants you to go and beg him personally, Miss. Maybe Master Yan wants to save face?"

Lu Wan suddenly realized that she disliked her for not begging him in person!
Just beg, she had thrown away things like her face a long time ago. If she had such important evidence in hand, everything would be clear.

"Lingxiao, help me make an appointment with him and treat him to dinner at Zuiyue Tower tomorrow. He said that I would also prepare a generous gift and thank him in person."

At that time, he would take advantage of her and beg him to continue to help investigate Zhao Ruyi's affairs.

"it is good."

Lu Wan wondered.

Why do you feel like this man is a little awkward?
Ah, yes, he is not a man.

Maybe, people with physical disabilities are also mentally disabled, so they are more sensitive?
Lu Wan was speechless. A man's heart is hard to figure out, and it's even harder to figure out a man's heart.

"Master Hou, why are you here so late?"

"Where's Lu Wan? Tell her to come out." Lu Shanyuan's tone was angry.

Lu Wan was startled, why did Daddy come to her in person? He hasn't set foot here for many years, right?

"The eldest girl has just finished taking a bath and has already gone to bed." Xi Yan didn't want to make the eldest girl tired anymore. She had to get up and change clothes before seeing her father.

It's so late, it's too cold outside, and the girl's body hasn't healed yet.

"What a big arrogance!" Lu Shanyuan was furious, "Tell her to get out!"

Luzhu and Hongzhu rushed out of the penthouse where they lived. They climbed out of the quilt, still wearing undershirts and trousers. They didn't hear Xiyan calling her Marquis, but they saw the strange man pointing at the eldest girl's window and yelling, and they immediately became angry.

Without saying a word, he rushed over and flew his left and right kicks, directly hooking Lu Shanyuan's left and right feet, knocking him down instantly. Dawn just came out. When he saw this, he was so frightened that he rushed over, grabbed Lu Shanyuan's arm and pulled him up.

After he stabilized himself, he turned around and yelled at them, "This is the Marquis, don't back down!"

Luzhu stared: "What's going on..."

Hongzhu quickly covered her mouth, dragged her back a step, and knelt on the ground together, "I didn't know it was the Marquis, please forgive me."

This was the first ritual they both learned.

Nanny Ling said that if she offended Lord Marquis, she would be killed with a stick.

Lu Shanyuan was almost knocked over by his slaves in his Marquis Mansion, and his face was lost. He was so angry that he kicked Lu Zhu hard on the head.

Lu Zhu fell to the ground with a groan, and the adult man kicked his head hard with shocking force. His head was buzzing with pain, and he couldn't get up for a while.

Hong Zhu went to help him, but Lu Shanyuan flew up again and kicked Hong Zhu hard on the back. Hong Zhu let out a cry and lay directly on Lv Zhu.

The two sisters did not dare to resist. They held each other's heads and lay on the ground begging for mercy.

My parents have taught me that you should not fight back when powerful people are scolding you. No matter how powerful you are, you can't beat them. You can just hold your head and protect your heart, and let the wealthy people beat you hard until you get rid of your anger.

Even the little humble servant dared to resist him. Lu Shanyuan's anger towards Lu Wan suddenly exploded. He grabbed a broom nearby and beat them both head and face.

The man hit with all his strength, the force was amazing, and the broom was broken in two blows, and the severed head turned into a sharp thorn.

Lu Shanyuan simply stabbed the little girl's curled up and exposed back hard.

"Father!" Lu Wan rushed out.

The moment she spoke, Mingxiao kicked the broom away from his hand and fell to his knees.

"Please calm down the Marquis. They both entered the house for the first time and don't recognize the Marquis. Please show your respect to the Marquis."

Lu Wan didn't have time to change, so she stood at the door wrapped in a quilt.

Fortunately, Mingxiao took action before he opened his mouth. Otherwise, how could a human body be able to withstand such a sharp piece of wood being inserted into it.

Her eyes were burning, and her whole body was full of anger. She tightened the quilt and walked down the steps step by step.

"Take them to get medicine."

Zhiruo, who had regained consciousness, hurried forward, and Xiyan helped the two of them to leave.

"If your humble servant dares to offend the master of the house, you will be punished with a stick! Lu Wan, you want to disobey your father's orders!" Lu Shanyuan glared angrily.

A hint of ridicule poured out unabashedly, and those dark eyes were beautiful, bright, but cold.

"Father, how long has it been since you set foot in my yard? You are about to sever all ties with me, so why are you here today to show off your power? Are you trying to drive me away again?"

In front of the servants, she dared to disgrace him.

However, he was actually a little afraid of her.

Lu Shanyuan endured it, "Lu Wan, why did you drive everyone back from the shop and the farm? They didn't make any mistakes. Please give me an explanation!"

Lu Wan frowned.

"Whose shop and farm are you talking about? The Marquis's house?"

Lu Shanyuan choked.

Yes, Qin's shop and farm have now been handed over to Lu Wan, so she naturally has the right to deal with the people inside.

He immediately understood why those people were driven back. Lu Wan wanted to replace them with one of his own.

For a moment, he found that he had no position to accuse her.

Under the dark night, the moonlight fell on Lu Wan's flawless white porcelain face, casting a layer of blurred light.

Very unreal.

He couldn't imagine why, after just a few days, his daughter seemed to be a completely different person, strange and a bit scary.

"Zhao Ruyi will be brought back tonight. As a daughter, don't interfere in the affairs of your father's back house all day long, lest people say you don't understand etiquette!" Lu Shanyuan's arrogance suddenly disappeared a lot, and he said angrily and left in a hurry. .

Lu Wan felt as if she was being pricked by a needle.

It hurts, and I don’t know where it hurts. My whole body feels uncomfortable and tight.

Father, this is her biological father.

Even though she had lost this blood-and-bones relationship, she still couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.
