After Rebirth, I Became the Treacherous Minister Black Moonlight

Chapter 56 The Lu family’s retribution is coming

At Haishi, all the mourning sheds were full, and Lu Lingxiao had to continue to build the mourning sheds in the heavy snow.

Among all the mourning sheds, the cleanest one is Lu Yuan's, and the busiest one is the shed near the pavilion on the west end. Those who keep vigil inside are either the elders of the two dynasties or the officials of the third rank and above.

They were discussing matters in the court, their words were sharp, and the scene was so intense that it could be described as lively.

And when Lu Yuan, wearing a black cloak, walked in casually, everyone paused, and the noisy memorial shed instantly became silent.

Lu Yuan took a quick glance, found an empty seat, and sat down calmly under everyone's blank gaze.

The two officials next to him immediately stood on end!

The officials sitting at the top on the left and right sides were so frightened that they stood up quickly and said in unison: "Grand Governor, please take a seat!"

Lu Yan put his hands in the hand warmers and said lightly: "No, you continue."

Everyone looked at each other, what should we continue? Scold you? Who dares to do it in front of you? No more brains?

Did you hear us scolding you? Did you come here on purpose to catch the current one?

You'd better give me some pleasure, it's very uncomfortable to have a knife hanging over your head!

Lu Yuan closed his eyes slightly and said calmly: "Continue, continue."

Minister of the Ministry of War: "Oh! Li Shangshu, has your child been born?"

The Minister of Industry gritted his teeth: It was the one in my family who gave birth to the child!

"I heard that there are many people coming to Beijing to take the exam this year, so next spring it will be lively again."

"We won the battle at the border and regained the lost territory from the people of Beiliang. It is the time for the imperial court to hire people. Next year, the Gongyuan will definitely select more talents for Your Majesty."

"Yeah yeah."

Everyone started chatting awkwardly.

The officials on the left and right of Lu Yuan rushed to give up their seats to Shangguan Ling. Shangguan Ling politely declined: "No, no, there is a seat over there!"

"No, no, no, Sir Shangguan is protecting the Governor personally, so he should sit here."

"Sit here!"

The two of them fought back and forth and had to raise the price to compete.

In the end, Shangguan Ling sat on the lower right side of Lu Yuan. Even if he had a hundred courages, he would not dare to sit on the upper level of the Governor.

The official who didn't win the fight started to tremble in his calves.

At first, everyone thought that Lu Yuan was just here to show his face and would leave soon. They never thought that half an hour had passed, and an hour had passed. The ruthless governor actually closed his eyes to rest and had no intention of leaving.

Everyone was almost crying.

No, you have your own private funeral shed, so why come here and squeeze in with us?

You warn people. A warning is enough. Is it necessary to scare us all night?

On the other side, Mother Lu helped Mrs. Liu finish copying the first batch of gift orders and went back to the wing to drink some ginseng soup.

Not seeing Meng Qianqian, Mother Lu went to ask Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Liu showed the way: "The guest in the mourning shed brought a child, but he didn't bring a nurse. I couldn't coax him, so Meng Qianqian went to help."

Marquis Yongen knew about the Governor Xi Jing, so as not to disturb him, he deliberately did not disclose Lu Yuan's identity.

Mrs. Liu did not know Lu Yuan, but she only knew that he was a very important guest.

Mother Lu has gone.

When Qingshuang saw that it was Mother Lu, she bowed her hands and opened the curtain for Mother Lu.

Mother Lu didn't know Qingshuang, but the other party seemed to know her. Mother Lu didn't think much and stepped into the tomb.

It was much warmer than other mourning sheds here, and the charcoal was smokeless. Meng Qianqian hugged Baoshu, who was sleeping soundly, and her body was supported by thick pillows, sleeping very sweetly.

Mother Lu touched Meng Qianqian's forehead and found that it was not hot. She also touched the little guy's back and found that there was no sweat.

When she heard that the Governor had arrived, she was wondering if Baoshu would come.

Mother Lu did not wake up Meng Qianqian. She came outside, hesitated for a moment, and asked Qingshuang: "Excuse me, girl, whose funeral shed is this?"

Qingshuang said: "It belongs to Miss Baoshu. Madam, don't worry, there will only be Mrs. Lu and Miss Baoshu here tonight."

After all, Mother Lu was a little worried and asked Yulian to call Nanny Wan over.

After all, Qingshuang had eaten melon at the Lu family, and knew that Aunt Wan was a loyal servant, so she let Aunt Wan in.

Mother Lu planned to go to the accounting room to continue counting.

Halfway through, the second lady stopped her in a strange way: "Hey, sister-in-law, you are so busy that you don't even touch the ground. Why don't you see Qianqian? Is she hiding somewhere? Brother asked her to do it. The job is not for her "I'm here to take some time off!" Mother Lu said coldly: "Your elder brother is here to express condolences to you, not to keep an eye on his family. If you have the skills, you might as well take care of your daughter, so as not to be like last time in the temple. What trouble has been caused again!”

"you-"

This sister-in-law is becoming more and more rude to her!

The second wife was very angry, but the sister-in-law was right. She had indeed not seen Linglong for a while: "Where has this girl been?"

Lu Linglong went to find her good sister, but after the ladies heard that she had been arrested and taken to the Governor's Mansion, they did not dare to have close contact with her. She asked for trouble and left angrily.

She always felt that Meng Qianqian had harmed her, and wanted to vent her anger on Meng Qianqian. She searched around but couldn't find her, so she wanted to go back to the wing to have something to eat.

The old lady couldn't bear it anymore and stopped.

Aunt Wu was guarding her in the house.

"Mother Wu, is there anything to eat? I'm hungry."

Grandma Wu was taking a nap. When she heard this, she stood up in panic. A bottle fell to the ground and rolled to Lu Linglong's feet.

Lu Linglong picked up the bottle, opened it and smelled it: "What's in this? Can it be eaten?"

"Oh, my little ancestor, I can't eat anything I can't eat!"

Mother Wu hurriedly snatched the bottle over.

"It smells sweet."

Lu Linglong wanted to eat.

Aunt Wu couldn't tell her that the bottle contained pregnancy medicine, which was harmful to the body.

She said sarcastically: "I'm angry, this is a laxative. If the young lady takes it, it will make her stomach upset."

"laxative?"

Lu Linglong's eyes lit up.

She was worried that she couldn't fix Meng Qianqian, so she gave the girl some medicine to make her embarrassed in public, to see if she would dare to show off her power in front of her in the future!

Lu Linglong took advantage of Nanny Wu to take a nap and stole the medicine.

She knew that Meng Qianqian liked osmanthus cake because the old lady would bring two boxes to Meng Qianqian on her way back from the temple.

She went to the kitchen and brought a plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, crushed the pills and sprinkled them evenly on the pastry.

She smiled proudly: "Meng, let's see how you get into trouble soon!"

Lu Linglong returned to the wing with snacks, called the two maids in the second room, and asked them to find Meng Qianqian: "Find sister-in-law and ask her to come back for some sweet-scented osmanthus cake!"

"yes!"

The two maids went in a hurry.

Lu Linglong looked at the snacks in front of her and fell asleep on the table.

The second lady came into the room sweating profusely and said angrily: "I've been looking for you all night, but you are here!"

She sat down panting, and suddenly felt hungry when she saw the sweet-scented osmanthus cake on the table.

"This osmanthus cake smells so good."

The second lady took a bite and asked, "Where did you hire the chef from the Liu Mansion? Is the sweet-scented osmanthus cake so delicious?"

The gongs and drums in the mourning hall were beating loudly, and the old lady was awakened.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the second lady sitting in the room eating alone.

The old lady didn't eat much at night, so it would be okay if she fell asleep, but after being noisy for most of the night, she was already very hungry. Seeing that the second lady was eating so deliciously, her face immediately darkened: "You didn't even make a sound when you came." call?"

"Mother, mother! Are you awake?"

The second lady hurriedly wiped her mouth and went over to help the old lady sit up, "Are you hungry? There are snacks on the table. You can cushion your stomach."

"Um."

The old lady ate the remaining three snacks.
