When the carriage was getting farther and farther away from the city gate, Li Chengqianruo glanced at the top of the city with all his heart.

The power of his soul gave him an extremely keen sense of spirituality.

He was vaguely aware of a malicious gaze there.

But after just one glance, he stopped paying attention.

Ever since he took Zhao Xun into Xiangfan, his whereabouts had been exposed to the world without any cover-up.

All the forces in Liyang, including the royal family, have spies, both covert and covert, who are watching his every move.

Situations like this have happened not once or twice.

However, most of them just watched from afar and did not make any extraordinary moves.

He didn't bother to look for them and kill them one by one.

Not only was the effort in vain, the people killed were insignificant to the forces behind the scenes.

After killing one batch, there will naturally be another batch.

And just as they entered Yangchun City and headed towards the Lu family, the major families in the south of the Yangtze River quickly received the news.

The people in charge of the various families who had been discussing this matter for many days finally chose to wait and see what happens.

In today's situation, doing nothing may be the best option.

Of course they didn't dare to offend the prince today, but they also didn't dare to offend the prince who had Beiliang's support.

After all, it is impossible to say that the person who will sit on the dragon chair in the future will be the seventh prince.

Even though the probability doesn't seem high, who dares to gamble with such a huge fortune?
The reason why aristocratic families are aristocratic families is because no matter who the leader of the dynasty is, they need to rely on their existence to govern the world.

Therefore, they have no so-called loyalty to today's emperor.

What's more, today's emperor is old and may not be able to hold the throne for long.

Betting at this time is not worth the loss.

Since Tai'an City didn't make a clear statement, they were naturally happy to play dumb.

Regarding the arrival of the seventh prince, it is enough not to get close to him or offend him.

At this time, they all looked on with cold eyes, waiting to see the meaning of the Lu family's joke.

The married lady of the Ming Dynasty was taken away in a grand manner. This can be said to be a heavy blow to the reputation of the Lu family.

The Lu Mansion, which has been at the top of the Jiangnan literary world for many years, may change its ownership after today.

Many aristocratic families with a good foundation are gearing up and ready to make a move.

Even though it is just the name of a leader in the literary world, for a family, the value of this name and its profound influence are simply immeasurable.

In Tai'an City, the reason why Lu Daolin, the head of the Lu family, was able to securely hold the position of minister is also related to this.

In fact, many aristocratic families had already sent manpower to publicize the matter after Li Chengqian followed Xu Weixiong out of the Lu Mansion.

Give the Lu family a heavy blow.

How can he be qualified to occupy the top spot in Jiangnan's literary world when he can't even keep his own wife?

Of course, among these rumors, they will deliberately weaken the presence of Li Chengqian, the seventh prince.

Although scholars have always maintained that the imperial power should not be feared, if this matter was also publicized, it would also cause a blow to the reputation of the Lu family.

But on the one hand, this matter involves the royal family, which is quite sensitive. On the other hand, the Lu family is extremely famous after all. In a sense, it can be said to represent the entire Jiangnan literary world.

Deliberately promoting the Lu family's fear of imperial power will also affect the image of the entire Jiangnan literary world.

They naturally understand the importance.

At the same time, in the Lu Mansion, Xu Zhihu was invited to Zhuoxin Garden to swim in the lake with her mother-in-law, Mrs. Xu.It has to be said that this Zhuoxin Garden was the place that hosted six emperors after all. Whether it is the flowers, trees, stone tablets or the lakes and mountains, they are all unique.

The splendor of the scenery is second to none even in Jiangnan, where gardens are the best.

Xu Zhihu and Xu just walked around the lake, chatting occasionally, and seemed to complement each other.

However, Er Qiao, who had been following Xu Zhihu, was unknowingly pushed to a distance by a healthy servant of the Xu family.

By the lake, Mrs. Xu suddenly asked: "Do you still remember how many years have you been married to my Lu family?"

Hearing this calm tone, Xu Zhihu felt an inexplicable chill in his heart.

She shook her head slightly: "I don't remember."

Xu laughed: "I remember, five years and 320 days."

Her smile gradually faded and she stared at Xu Zhihu: "Because my son passed away on the day you married me."

Xu Zhihu's heart tightened, and he looked at Mrs. Xu's not-so-bright eyes, filled with utter hatred for her.

Xu didn't mean to hide it, and said coldly: "You bitch should have died a long time ago. It's a pity that someone has been protecting you in the past, but it was difficult to succeed several times. Now, there is no reason for you to be spared!"

She said with full of viciousness and resentment: "You were born as my son, and you died as my son's ghost.

If you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, if you marry a dog, follow the dog. This is a truth that has not been easy since ancient times.
I want to leave Lu Mansion for the next life! "

Xu Zhihu's expression changed: "You are really crazy. Do you know how much disaster I will bring to Lu Mansion if I die in Lu Mansion?"

Mrs. Xu chuckled and said, "You are weak and accidentally fell into the water and died when you were swimming in the lake. What does it have to do with the Lu family?"

Of course, she was from a big family after all, so she naturally knew that the matter might not be settled so easily.

But if she could barely endure it in the past, how could she endure it when Xu Zhihu, the daughter-in-law, was about to be taken away and married to someone else. She had already blamed Xu Zhihu for her son's death?

After finishing her words, she said coldly: "Let's do it."

Hearing this, a servant who had been following her immediately walked towards Xu Zhihu with an expressionless face.

Xu Zhihu retreated step by step, but she had never practiced martial arts before, and now she was seriously ill. How could she escape?
In just a blink of an eye, she was pushed into the cold lake water.

How could she endure it when her energy and blood were so weak?

It just fluttered and struggled for a few times, then sank and became silent.

"Miss!"

Not far away, Er Qiao's eyes were red and she wanted to rush over to save Xu Zhihu, but the healthy servant who separated her from Xu Zhihu was easily caught in the hand, and she could not struggle away.

"You are committing murder. The second master will not let you go if he finds out!"

Xu turned a deaf ear and just watched the red shadow gradually sinking into the lake.

A happy smile gradually appeared on his face.

After a moment, she glanced at Er Qiao who was struggling and crying with disgust.

"Since you are so loyal, let's go to the bottom of the lake to accompany your bitchy master."

Hearing this, the healthy servant who grabbed Er Qiao prepared to throw him into the lake without saying a word.

At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed over and snatched Er Qiao from the man's hand.

He pushed Er Qiao far away and stood in front of the healthy servant.

"Come on, call someone, I'll help you hold them off!"

This person is actually the boy next to Lu Baijie!

Er Qiao's eyes were red and her tears couldn't stop flowing. She took a deep look at the boy, then turned around and left without any hesitation. (End of chapter)
