Concubine, please respect yourself

Chapter 63 The Past

At nightfall, the small sedan chair with lotus root and silk satin returned to Duke Lu's mansion.

A Lu greeted her with a smile, and was about to say hello to his young lady cheerfully, but was stopped by Jing Zhe's eyes.

They should not gossip about their masters' affairs.

Since Lu Ziyu came out of Mu's residence, his expression was not very good-looking, and his frowning seemed to hide something on his mind.

After getting off the sedan chair, he didn't say a word, and went straight to Lanyue Pavilion.

Ah Lu carefully inquired: "What's wrong with Miss Si?" After a pause, he waved his fist and said, "Could it be that someone bullied you?"

"Come on, it's just your three taels of bone and two taels of meat." Bai Lu joked with a smile, and waved to him to indicate that there was nothing wrong, and let him relax.

Touching his nose, Ah Lu put down his hand a little bit disheartened.

Bai Lu and Jing Zhe didn't want to say much, they bid him farewell, and hurriedly chased after their young lady.

"It's said that a woman's heart is a needle in the bottom of the sea, but today I saw this man's heart, not even a strand of hair!" The two rushed over, and before they entered the door, they heard the woman's coquettish voice complaining.

"Miss, be careful with your words and deeds!"

Jing Zhe and Bai Lu can almost guess why the young lady is angry, but it only involves noble people, they dare not criticize themselves in vain.

Luo Ning was holding a bowl of cold ginger tea. Seeing the gloomy atmosphere in the room, she coughed lightly and said, "It's getting late, so hurry up and boil the water, and wait for the young lady to wash up later!"

After dismissing everyone in the house, he handed the tea bowl into the hands of his young lady, whispering in a low voice: "Young lady asked me to investigate."

It took a long time to talk with each other while holding the candle, and Lu Ziyu seemed to have forgotten the unpleasant things in his heart.

"Miss, the hot water is here!" Jing Zhe knocked lightly on the wooden door, and respectfully returned to the room.

Lu Ziyu smiled, and said calmly, "Come in."

The maids filed in with tubs in hand.

Jing Zhe adjusted the water temperature and was about to retreat, but she heard the woman next to her ear order: "You stay."

It was the voice of the beauty undressing beside the barrel.

Luo Ning's eyes were worried, but he closed the door and pushed everyone away.

"Oh!"

The carved folding door is closed.

The sound of water flowing is clearly audible, as if beating on the apex of a person's heart.

Jing Zhe frowned, feeling a little uneasy in her heart, her fingertips couldn't help trembling a few times before returning to normal, she lifted the plain gauze curtain and walked towards the bathroom.

The skirt has faded, and the delicate body is submerged in the water. The green ink filaments are rippling on the water surface, revealing a messy and coquettish color.

Lu Ziyu squinted his eyes, seeming to enjoy it lazily and intoxicated.

Jing Zhe served her wholeheartedly, scooping hot water into the bathtub without stopping.

"My shoulder is sore, please squeeze it for me a few times." The beauty said softly without opening her eyes.

Eyelashes trembling slightly, Jing Zhe stretched out his hand with some hesitation, and put it on that fair neck.

The five fingers were gathered and twisted slowly, and the pulp of the fingers was slightly pressed, making the woman in the bathtub moan comfortably.

This kind of strength is not what ordinary daughters should have.

"Jing Zhe, you have calluses on your palm, but you know how to do it!" These words were not inquiries, but seemed to take away an affirmative tone.

Kneeling down, he was about to explain: "Miss, servant girl"

Lu Ziyu wrapped his hands around the tub, casually smiled and said, "I don't know, do you know Han Jingzhong, the former commander of the Imperial Guard?"

Although the Han family in the capital city is not considered a famous family, they can also be called a high-class noble family, but for some reason, the whole family was imprisoned for the crime of treason five years ago, only one daughter escaped by chance, and she has not been found yet.

The details of the identities of the servants in her yard are clear, only Jingzhe's background is slightly complicated, if it wasn't for the fight with Wei Xiaoxiang today, she would not have noticed anything.

Seeing that the people on the ground were still apprehensive and unwilling to believe her, he murmured to himself: "I heard that it was the Wei family who killed it first and then played it. When they found out that the Han family had a letter of collusion with the party, they replaced the archers and shot it." There are 130 people in the Han family." He smoothed the ends of his hair with wet hands, and said softly, "I heard that even the newborn children were not spared."

Jing Zhe knelt on the spot in a daze, and seemed to be able to clearly see the killing that night through the candlelight.

Five years ago, in the midsummer, Beijing was sultry.

In the middle of the night, accompanied by the sound of cicadas, someone broke into the door, dragged them out of the bed rudely, and dropped them with a knife without paying attention.

What happened to their family?Never heard of it!
The yelling of her parents, the pain of her brother and sister-in-law, and her newborn nephew passed away within a few days of crying.

She hid at the mouth of a well in the yard that night and witnessed the brutality of the Wei family.

Blood splashed down every inch of the Han residence like rain.

It stinks of conspiracy and is disgusting.

She hated, hated that she didn't have the courage to stand in front of her family that day, hated why she didn't go blind so that she could clearly remember the pain of the past, and hated the Wei family even more!

Now that she is living on an ignoble basis, she is doing her best to return the hardships suffered by the Han family to the Wei family one day.

Turning palms into fists, forbearance did not send out.

In her, Lu Ziyu seemed to see the Lu family who was also responsible for the tragedy of exterminating the family, and saw the shadow of himself bearing pain.

"I think you don't want to hide it from me, but you can't trust me, can you?" The beauty came out of the bath, wrapped herself in a robe and stood by her side.

Seeing Jing Zhe bowed his head and said nothing, Lu Ziyu sighed softly: "The Wei family is powerful and has many eyes and ears. If we act recklessly, the gain may not be worth the loss. We can only plan ahead and wait for the opportunity!"

"Miss, who is this? Would you like to help me?" Jing Zhe raised her head with tears in her eyes, her eyes were full of stubbornness and unyielding, revealing three points of doubt.

Lu Ziyu didn't answer her directly, he bent down and helped her up from the ground first: "Be careful, don't catch cold."

Seeing Jing Zhe's urgent expression, Lu Ziyu couldn't bear it, as if he had decided what to do, he said solemnly: "I won't help you completely, the Lu family always needs to clear some obstacles when they first arrive in Beijing."

"Now there are two paths in front of you. One is to secretly find a killer to wash the Wei family blood, and the other is to find out the truth, return the Han family's innocence, send the Wei family to prison, and be cast aside forever." Lu Zi Yu lightly gathered his robe, with an air of convincing.

"If you can avenge my Han family's grievances, the servant's life will be yours from now on!" Jing Zhe broke down in sobs, her cuffs were wet.

"This is the second time you said this today. I don't want your life. You just need to live well and see all the good and evil in the world." After saying these words, he lifted the curtain and left.

The beautiful woman's back is like a moon, but her posture is so fierce that people cannot be violated.

"Boom!"

Jing Zhe didn't say any more, she knocked her forehead on the ground hard to show her loyalty.

In the suburbs of Beijing, the Ninth Prince's Mansion.

The lamp in the study was not turned off, and there were only afterimages lingering on the window.

Fuyun pushed the door open and entered, and seeing the helpless and preoccupied look on his highness's face, he knew that he might have a hard time tonight.

"Is there any news from the Lu family?" Ying Su asked in a cold voice, seeing Fu Yun's foolish look, she understood everything.

With a cold snort, he sat in the armchair beside the desk, his eyes were dark and he didn't know what to think.

"Do you know when Mu Cangzhai will open?" He tapped his fingers on the side of the chair thoughtfully.

"It should be just a few days!"

Since she won't come, force her to come!
Unscrupulous, this is the rule in this imperial city, isn't it?
"There have been thieves in the south alley these days, let's dispatch the city defense battalion to seal it first!" This was said casually, but it was a sinister way.

Fuyun thought about it for a long time, but she didn't think of any incidents in the city in the past few days that said that there were thieves in the South Alley.

After realizing it later, he slapped his thigh and said to himself: "Ms. Lu Si's Mu Cangzhai, isn't it just opened in the south alley in the city?"

　The hero and heroine are ready to start a fight, come and vote
