Fang Rong was stunned on the spot, and then she squatted down and cried without knowing what she thought of.
Fortunately, this place is remote enough that no one will hear me even if I cry loudly.
This era pays attention to the order of elders and younger ones, and the distinction between superior and inferior. As a concubine, no matter how hard she tries, she cannot surpass her legitimate children.
Finally, she was able to change her destiny through a marriage contract, but she was hindered by others. She just wanted to take the marriage into her own hands. What was wrong with her?
Why would someone I never knew have to stand up and stop me?
As a woman, couldn’t she empathize with her own feelings?
Tonight is her only chance, and she doesn’t want to miss it. Since she has no medicine, she will find another way.
In short, she must not marry that old businessman.
After she finished crying, she stood up slowly. The maid hurriedly came over to help her. Seeing her expressionless look, she was a little scared and whispered: "Miss..."
"I'm fine. You can go back. I want to walk alone."
After saying that, he took his hand out of the maid's hand and walked forward alone.
The maid was a little worried, but she also knew her temper and did not dare to step forward, so she could only follow her from a distance.
Lu Baichuan is a second-rank minister. Although he is overall responsible for the safety of tonight's banquet, he does not need to stay outside the whole time. He can go back to the banquet to have a drink. He only needs to go out and take a look after a while. .
Because there was still business to do, Lu Baichuan did not drink. He just ate some food and dealt with the officials who came to toast.
He Jiuniang was already ready to present her gift. She stood up and walked to the center of the hall, bowed to the new emperor and queen above, and said: "To congratulate the emperor on his accession to the throne, I have a big gift to give. To the Emperor."
Finally here!
The emperor and queen were very excited, sitting upright and looking at her with a thick smile on their faces.
The emperor said: "I have long heard from Bai Chuan that Madam has a gift for me. I have been looking forward to it all day, so I will present it to you!"
He Jiuniang She smiled and said: "This gift is a little bit special, the emperor and the empress must be mentally prepared."
The queen couldn't stand her talking like this, and urged: "What on earth is it? Present it quickly!"
He Jiuniang clapped her hands outside, and then everyone in the hall looked out, curious about what kind of gift she had sent.
Several soldiers came to the temple, holding a shackled man in custody.
The man lowered his head, making it difficult for people to see his appearance.
Everyone was very curious about the man’s identity, so they could only look at He Jiuniang eagerly, waiting for her explanation.
He Jiuniang did not mean to be mysterious, and took the initiative to say: "This person is a spy who has been hiding in Beiyan. He has great power, but I don't know who is behind it. I will develop a Plant a medicine that tells the truth, so you are not afraid that he will not reveal the mastermind behind the scenes."
A soldier forced the man to raise his head. It was a completely unfamiliar face. The emperor was vaguely disappointed. This It seemed a little different from what he imagined.
After all, they have caught too many details for such a long time. This is really nothing, and it is far from the great gift He Jiuniang said.
However, the emperor also knew that what He Jiuniang said meant that the truth about the mastermind behind the scenes was not far away, so he still laughed heartily and said: "Mrs. Lu is thoughtful, reward me!"
< br />He Jiuniang knew that the emperor and the queen must be a little disappointed. After all, she did not send King Xun up. However, she had a plan, so she deliberately winked at the queen.
In fact, she originally planned to present King Xun directly, so that everyone present could see what happened to King Xun.
But after returning home from the restaurant, she read the message Mingze gave her and instantly changed her mind.
At present, King Xun is not suitable to be exposed to the public eye, especially these people here. I don’t know how many people are colluding with him. Once he is taken out, someone will do it in advance. Preparation, that was not her original intention.
Although she blinked at the queen, the emperor could see clearly and knew that she was showing off, so he said nothing more and just waited for the surprise later.
When taking the craftsman down, Lu Baichuan happened to be going out for inspection, so he took the person out by the way.
He was in the palace all day today and had no chance to meet his wife. He didn’t know why her daughter-in-law suddenly changed her mind, but he believed that her daughter-in-law must have her own reasons for doing so, so naturally he didn’t ask anything. .
"You guys take the people down, and I'll go over there for a walk."
"Yes."
There will be a small team all night While on patrol, Lu Baichuan only needed to find the team leaders to confirm the situation, and he did not need to bring anyone with him.
At this moment, there was a woman standing by the lake not far away. When she saw Lu Baichuan looking this way, she closed her eyes, her heart skipped a beat, and she jumped directly into the lake.
Lu BaichuanHe frowned, with a bit of displeasure in his eyes. He was seeking death on such an important occasion. What's going on?
He was not in a hurry to save people, he just stood there with his hands behind his back.
The little maid behind him didn’t expect that Fang Rong would be so obsessed with it. She was frightened for a moment and hurriedly called someone when she saw this.
"Help, someone is here, our young lady fell into the water!"
It happened that the little maid saw Lu Baichuan, and shouted to Lu Baichuan at the top of her lungs.
"General, save my young lady! My young lady is so pitiful!"
"General, please have mercy on me!"
"Save Save my young lady!”
…
The maid kept calling Lu Baichuan but remained unmoved. She just watched the woman in the lake struggling, but she never looked down. Shen.
This woman clearly understands water!
Lu Baichuan had a mocking smile on his face and went into the water deliberately to see him. What about fishing?
Fang Rong struggled for a long time but didn't see Lu Baichuan entering the water to rescue her. She was a little puzzled for a moment. Wasn't he responsible for the safety of tonight's banquet? Why didn't he rescue him when he saw himself falling into the water?
As long as he is willing to save her, she will give her life to him. When she gets involved with him, her family will not only not marry her to an old businessman, but will also try their best to promote this good thing.
Compared with Lu Baichuan, the second young master of the Chen family is not a good match.
But Lu Baichuan's reaction made her a little overwhelmed. If he never came to save her, wouldn't she have to stay soaked in this water?
At this time of year, it’s hot during the day, but it’s starting to get cold at night. What’s more, being in such a lake is very harmful to the body.
But, she jumped into the lake by herself, so she couldn't shamelessly call for help, let alone swim to the shore by herself.
Fortunately, my maid was pretty good at it. No one came over after shouting for a long time, so she had no choice but to try to get into the water by herself.
But the maid didn’t know how to swim, so she looked so scared on the shore.
"Help, oh, oh, oh, help my lady!"
The maid just looked at Lu Baichuan, and Lu Baichuan stopped looking at them, turned around and left.
"General!"
The maid watched Lu Baichuan leave blankly, and now she didn't know what to do.
Is Lu Baichuan blind and deaf like this?
