Good luck and marriage: marrying the governor of Dongchang

Chapter 256 Captured
In the autumn afternoon, the sun shone faintly on the lintel of the Lu residence, a little ironic and desolate.

Shen Qingli's face was calm, because she had already expected such a day, and in order not to make those young people secretly complacent, she was extraordinarily calm and calm.

Such a silent appearance surprised He Minxin who came to arrest her.In addition to being surprised, I was also a little bit ashamed.Because of his loud noise outside the door just now, he kept urging him outside, for fear that he would run away, but he had a calm expression on his face. In contrast, his actions looked like a clown.

This Shen Qingli looks like her man Lu Huai, putting on an air to be annoying.

"Mr. Chen, you are a criminal woman, why are you not polite when you see me?"

Not wanting to see Shen Qingli so calm, He Minxin raised his chin and looked down at the delicate woman in a coarse cloth dress in front of him.

Shen Qingli knew that this person wanted to make things difficult for her, to show off in front of everyone. She despised such a despicable idea and was unwilling to fulfill it.

She stared ahead, not looking at the little man on the horseback, and said softly, "Even though my husband's title is revoked, he is still a minister of the two dynasties who has made great contributions to Xiliang. What Liang has done, what he has been doing all day long is nothing more than taking advantage of power and ingratiating, such a woman like you doesn't want to kneel, and you don't have to kneel."

When the news that Lu Huaiqi's title was revoked reached her ears, she was not too shocked.

Because ever since the news of Lu Huaiqi's death in battle came out, she knew that if it didn't take long for her to come, there would be someone in the court who couldn't sit still and wanted to make a move.

Even if that person is not the little emperor, he will be someone else.

But no matter who it is, the result is not much different to her.

She is Lu Huaiqi's wife, so she must be a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh that many people want to get rid of.If you want Liwei to secure a high position, you must first get rid of them and others.

This is something she has long understood.

After He Minxin heard what she said, he flew into a rage, his face turned red and then turned white, looking really scary.

But Shen Qingli didn't have the slightest intention to appreciate such a wonderful expression, she was thinking about what she should do next.

Seeing Shen Qingli's arrogance that didn't take himself seriously at all, He Minxin shouted, "Bold criminal woman, how dare you be so rude! Come here, handcuff and fetter these criminals, and handcuff all these criminals to me!" , I want to see, no matter how sharp your teeth are, you can still be happy and complacent for a few days in such a situation!"

Shen Qingli's face was pale, but the eyes that looked at He Minxin were a little colder.

This corrupt official is really an out-and-out despicable villain, and this face of stepping up and stepping down is really disgusting.No wonder Lu Huaiqi kicked him out back then, how could such a person be used.

Ran Mo beside her also looked angry at He Minxin, and Zhang Li's face was heavy, as if he was going to rush forward at any time, pull the villain off the horse and teach him a severe lesson.

Sensing their fluctuating emotions, Shen Qingli lowered her voice and said, "Be safe and don't be impatient. The most important thing in this situation is to be calm. Let's wait and see what happens."

Ran Mo's nose was a little sour when she heard that, Madam was already like this, and she was still trying to comfort them. Although she was still angry, she also knew that Shen Qingli's words were not unreasonable.No matter how angry they are now, it will be useless.It's better to calm down, so that you can think of a way to get out, and maybe there will be a turning point at that time.

Zhang Li was naturally calmer than Ran Mo, after all, he had been with Lu Huai for many years, so he soon sank down.

He was assassinated by a kind of officer and soldier just now, and he suffered some injuries, and now the wound is still bleeding, but he doesn't care about it and has no time to deal with it. The most important thing for him now is to be vigilant at all times and protect his wife, otherwise he will die I am ashamed of my master.

Those handcuffs and shackles are made of black iron, they are extremely heavy to hang on the body, and the movement will become extremely inconvenient. This is specially prepared for felony prisoners to prevent the prisoners from escaping.

Ran Mo looked at Shen Qingli worriedly. He was still handcuffed and fettered. He was afraid that there would be a lot of severe punishments waiting in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.She was worried that Shen Qingli would not be able to bear it.

Shen Qingli did feel a little uncomfortable at the moment. She had exhausted a lot of energy just running in the secret passage, and now she was shackled by the heavy iron chains. Mo was worried about himself, so he smiled and shook his head at her, indicating that he was fine and told her not to worry.

He Minxin looked at their master and servant, with a cold light in his eyes, he smirked, and ordered, "Come on, separate them for me, they are all prisoners on death row, why don't you play me a show of affection between master and servant! "

When the officers and soldiers guarding Shen Qingli and Ran Mo heard this, they hurriedly pulled the two of them apart. How could Ran Mo want to, and immediately glared at He Minxin and shouted, "Don't go too far, you dog official. If there is something wrong with my wife, you How do you explain to your superiors, can you afford it!?"

It's not that she doesn't know anything and is ignorant of the servants. This time the incident was arranged by the little emperor, and she also guessed that the little emperor must have said something or showed something in front of them, so that these lackeys dare not Act rashly on them.

Otherwise, how could they have been escorted out of the house safe and sound, I'm afraid they would have been blown to death by those officers and soldiers in the secret passage.

At that time, although they threatened to use explosives to blow up the trap door, they still didn't do it in the end. She felt that something was wrong at the time, and the wife also said that it was probably because of an explanation from the superiors. They did not dare to act rashly. dare to threaten.

With this layer of guessing in mind, Ran Mo grasped this point and wanted to see how He Minxin would react.

Shen Qingli frowned, Ran Mo's thinking was a bit simple, although He Minxin didn't dare to hurt their lives, but he might not dare to such a small punishment that would not endanger their lives.

Sure enough, He Minxin sneered, and said in a strange way, "What kind of master and servant are you talking about? Look at your eloquent mouth, you really look like your wife and master, but I am not scared. Yes, do you really think that I dare not hurt you? Mrs. Chen may be, but you are just a little maid, you have offended me, so I can kill you right now!"

Ran Mo stared at him with wide eyes, she was not afraid of death, but she was worried that if she died, then the wife would be really helpless in prison.

When He Minxin finished that sentence, he drew a knife from the hand of the officer and soldier next to him, pointing the knife point directly at Ranmo.

It's just that when he was pointing, a figure flashed in front of him and blocked Ran Mo. He opened his eyes wide and found that it was Shen Qingli, and immediately trembled his hands slightly in fright.

He yelled at the officers and soldiers who were escorting Shen Qingli, "How can you look at a useless piece of trash!"

He really didn't dare to hurt himself, Shen Qingli affirmed this conjecture in his heart.

This must be what the little emperor meant, but why?She always remembered that the little emperor hated her extremely, because of Mrs. Yuan and because she was Lu Huaiqi's woman.

But now why should He Minxin save his life and go to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

What is the idea of ​​the little emperor.

Suppressing the doubts in her heart, she raised her head and looked at He Minxin, her eyes were faint but also cold, "Master He, Ran Mo is my servant girl, if she can't speak and offends you, then please bear with me." , I have no one around now, only this maid is here, if something happens to her, then I will not be able to live, I think you still have to explain to the emperor, then on the way to the prison of the Ministry of punishment, please put yourself When you suppress your temper, it is for your own consideration."

He Minxin's complexion was very ugly, and he was secretly annoyed that Shen Qingli had seen through him, but he also understood that she was right.It's just that he really loses face when he is handled like this by a little girl in his teens.

Glancing at Shen Qingli irritably, he waved his hand, that's all, there is only such a short distance, so just bear it.

After all, after arriving in prison, they will not have a good life.

Seeing that he compromised, Shen Qingli knew that her words were effective, so she patted Ran Mo's hand reassuringly.

He Minxin had someone count the number of people, and the officers and soldiers reported that there were a total of 12 servants, and there were three Shen Qingli and Mo Zhangli.

Shen Qingli lowered her head with a calm expression, it seemed that the housekeeper successfully avoided their search.

Then, they still have hope to get out of trouble.

He Minxin nodded, and was about to let the team set off when suddenly he paused and asked, "Isn't Mrs. Shen still having a mother, where is she?"

Shen Qingli's heart suddenly rose following these words, she never thought that He Minxin would still remember her mother.

He Minxin looked at Shen Qingli, who was finally a little emotionally fluctuating, feeling a little proud, and asked the people around him, "Tell me, where is Shen's mother? She is also a member of the Lu family, so naturally I can't let it go!"

The officers and soldiers flinched in fright from He Minxin's roar, and hurriedly replied, "I heard that Mrs. Zhu had smallpox before, and she is recuperating elsewhere, not in the Lu residence."

"Smallpox!?" He Minxin raised her eyebrows high, and rolled her eyes.A few days ago, smallpox had been raging in Liangjing City. He didn't know that the Zhu family also had this terrible disease.

Suddenly, he aimed the knife that had not been put away in his hand at the servants of the Lu Mansion, "Tell me, where Mrs. Zhu is recuperating, anyone who doesn't tell me about the knife in my hand will kill him!"

The servants didn't expect such an incident, and they all panicked. One of the timid servants couldn't help but blurted out, "My lord, please forgive me. Mrs. Shen is currently recuperating in another garden of the master..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly fell to the ground, his eyes widened, and his hands were still touching his neck.

He Minxin was stunned for a moment, and then said in shock, "Who! Who did it, come out quickly! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

The servant who fell on the ground had a piece of iron in the shape of a water chestnut leaf in the middle of his neck, and around the piece of iron was a patch of bright red blood.
