Chapter 888 Turn a blind eye

Fang Rong was stunned on the spot, and then she collapsed and cried without knowing what she thought of.

Fortunately, this place was remote enough that no one would hear me even if I cried loudly.

This era pays attention to the order of seniority and the distinction between seniority and inferiority. As a concubine, no matter how hard she tries, she cannot surpass her legitimate children.

She was finally able to change her destiny through a marriage contract, but she was obstructed 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 him?

As a woman, couldn't she empathize with her own feelings?
Tonight was her only chance, and she didn't want to miss it. Since she didn't have any medicine, she had to 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 go for a walk alone."

After speaking, 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 didn't 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 security of tonight's banquet, he does not need to stay outside the entire banquet. 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 didn't 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 empress above, and said: "To congratulate the emperor on his enthronement, I have a big gift to give to the emperor."

finally come!

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 that Bai Chuan said that Madam has a gift for me. I have been looking forward to it all day, so please present it!"

He Jiuniang 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 outside, 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 so that his appearance could not be seen clearly.

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 said proactively: "This person is a secret agent who has been hiding in Beiyan. He has great power, but I don't know who is the mastermind behind it. I will develop a medicine that tells the truth. I’m not afraid that he won’t reveal the mastermind behind it.”

A soldier forced the man to raise his head. It was a completely unfamiliar face. The emperor was vaguely disappointed. This seemed to be different from what he had 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 interested, reward me!"

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, especially those here. I don’t know how many people are colluding with him. Once he is taken out, someone will be prepared in advance. That is not her original intention. .

Although she was blinking at the queen, the emperor could see clearly and knew that she was showing off, so he didn't say anything more and just waited for the surprise later.When taking the fine work 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 had 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 were squads patrolling all night. Lu Baichuan only needed to find the squad leaders to confirm the situation. He didn't 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 and jumped directly into the lake.

Lu Baichuan 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 quickly 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 my lady!"

……

The maid kept calling Lu Baichuan but remained unmoved. She just watched the woman in the lake struggling but never sinking.

This woman clearly understands the nature of water!

A mocking smile appeared on Lu Baichuan's face, and he 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 was 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, not to mention being in a lake like this, which is very harmful to the body.

However, 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 frightened on the shore that she couldn't stand it.

"Help, oh, oh, oh, oh, help my lady!"

The maid just looked at Lu Baichuan. Lu Baichuan stopped looking at them and turned around to leave.

"General!"

The maid stared blankly as Lu Baichuan left. She didn't know what to do now.

Is Lu Baichuan blind and deaf like this?
