Lord Quan teases Houmen's poisonous wife

Chapter 200 surfaced
"Before third uncle came to the Duke's mansion, he wrote me a letter." Lu Xiuyuan said.

"Really?" Regarding this point, Yun Chuwei was a little surprised. She always thought that Lu Chuan had cut off contact with the Lu family long ago. Was it just for outsiders to see?

"Yeah." Lu Xiuyuan nodded, "Since Third Uncle is at your house, there's no need for me to hide it from Madam. What's more, I came here today to find Third Uncle."

Yun Chu put down the flower scissors slightly, turned to Aunt Han and said, "Take Master Lu!"

"Master Lu, please." Aunt Han stepped forward a few steps, but her face was not very emotional. She had always had a hard time being patient with masters outside the Duke's mansion.

Lu Xiuyuan looked around and asked, "Isn't Master Jiu here?"

"I just happened to go out on something." Yun Chu said slightly.

Lu Xiuyuan lowered his eyelashes, "Okay, I'm going to see third uncle right now."

Little is known about Lu Chuan's identity in the family. Among the servants, only Meizi and Aunt Han know about it. Therefore, the meeting between the two should not be too public. Aunt Han arranged for a slightly secluded tea house to find When Lu Chuan was in front of other servants, he lied that the young master of the Lu family had heard that he had profound knowledge in flowers and plants, so he came here admiringly, and wanted to ask him about maintenance and cultivation.

Such an excuse sounds flawless, and no one would suspect that the servants should do what they should do.

Lu Chuan followed Aunt Han to the teahouse, where Lu Xiuyuan had been waiting for a while.

"Uncle Three."

As soon as Lu Chuan entered, Lu Xiuyuan greeted him with a smile.

Lu Chuan's face was a little stiff, and his eyes moved to Aunt Han without a trace.

Lu Xiuyuan hurriedly explained, "Aunt Han knows the identity of Third Uncle."

"You two chat, and the old slave will leave." Aunt Han bowed and walked out generously.

"Third Uncle, please sit down." Seeing Lu Chuan standing all the time, Lu Xiuyuan felt a little sorry.

"It's okay, I'm used to standing." This is the Duke's Mansion after all, and he reminded himself every moment that he was just a servant.

Lu Xiuyuan probably also understood what he was thinking, so he didn't force it anymore.

"If Yuan'er has something to do, just ask someone to send a letter to the third uncle. Why do you need to go there in person? Besides, if you come in person, it is too easy to expose the relationship between us. In the ears of the old man of the Su Mansion, if he goes crazy, it will be detrimental to Mrs. Tai."

Lu Xiuyuan smiled lightly, and the third uncle really put Mrs. Tai's interests first in everything he did.

"Third uncle, don't worry!" Lu Xiuyuan said, "There should be no fool around Su Yan who would spread the news to the Su residence."

Lu Chuan was relieved a little, "Yuan'er came to see me specially, is there something urgent?"

Lu Xiuyuan took out the jade pendant from his sleeve pocket, "Does Third Uncle know this?"

Lu Chuan squinted his eyes and looked at it for a while, then shook his head, "I don't know, how could you have this?"

"When my mother was taken away, she gave me this while in a mess. I've been searching all these years, but I couldn't find any clues. I asked my uncle and second uncle, and they didn't know. I know where this thing came from, so I came to Uncle San with a fluke mentality, and see if you can recall anything and give me some clues."

After hearing this, Lu Chuan sighed softly, "Yuan'er, about your mother, let's stop here, don't investigate any further."

Lu Xiuyuan's expression became gloomy, and he pursed his lips, "The third uncle knows that finding out the whereabouts of my mother and the cause of death is the only motivation for me to survive all these years. Why do you want to stop me? Could it be that the three uncles know the inside story, just to appease me , so deliberately concealed the most critical and important part?"

Lu Chuan's heart skipped a beat, but his face remained calm, "To prevent the wall from having ears, Yuan'er should call me 'Third Uncle'!"

Lu Xiuyuan took back the jade pendant in his hand, "Since Third Uncle doesn't know about it, I have no choice but to find someone else to ask about it."

Lu Chuan frowned. He didn't understand why the child was so stubborn. Is the truth really that important?Both his biological father and biological mother are no longer alive. Even if he finally finds out about those things, what good will it do him?Lu Chuan couldn't imagine how desperate Lu Xiuyuan would be when he knew the truth one day. He would definitely not be able to bear such a blow.

There is actually a reason for Lu Xiuyuan's stubbornness. He was only three years old that year.

Three years old, the age when I just started to remember things, even if the brutal behavior of those people at that time seems to be no big deal now, it is definitely not a dark memory that a three-year-old child can easily erase.

The birth mother was robbed and both knees were crippled. From now on, there will be no more Lu Qingwan's precious sons in the world, but there is a young master Lu Xiuyuan inside the Lu family's house.Fortunately, the eldest master Lu Jiaping made many excuses to say that it was born when he and his first wife went out to do business. Because of his weak constitution, he stayed in other places and did not bring it back. Lu Xiuyuan was able to secure his position as the eldest master of the Lu family.In fact, Lu Jiaping's wife gave birth to a child, and it was true that she was out of town, but unfortunately passed away.Did Mrs. Lu ever give birth to a child like Lu Xiuyuan? Most of the servants in the family could hide it from her, but she couldn't hide it from the wives who were married by Mrs. Lu's natal family. Therefore, Lu Jiaping spent a lot of money to keep her mouth shut. Kungfu, but it's not killing people, and it's not all using money, it's just using special means to make those people take the money and leave Lu's mansion without saying a word.

From the beginning, Lu Xiuyuan knew that he should call the three brothers of the Lu family "uncle", but because of his biological mother and because he was included in the Lu family tree, from then on he could only call them "father" and "uncle".

God knows how much he wants to find his biological mother's corpse, even if it's just a few broken remains, it's considered to have found his mother, but no, after more than 20 years, even if he becomes the richest man in Nanliang, even if he has inexhaustible money, even if he He could invite the top intelligence organization in Jianghu, but he couldn't find any information about his mother. She seemed to have evaporated from the world. If it wasn't for Lu Xiuyuan's existence, he almost doubted that there was no such person as Lu Qingwan in the world.

It's not that he hasn't been discouraged, but every time at that time, Lu Xiuyuan always thinks of the scene when his mother was taken away. Recalling those, his withered fighting spirit will be rekindled.

"Yuan'er, since you're here, why don't you wait for a while and ask Master Jiu to look at your legs for you, but there is still a possibility of recovery." Lu Chuan really couldn't bear it. He should not bear any grievances or grievances from the previous generation.

Lu Xiuyuan obviously refused, not because of the amount of enmity between him and Su Yan, but because he knew very well that his legs had been disabled for more than 20 years. , he didn't want to hear it from the doctor's mouth anymore, he wanted to paralyze himself.

Avoiding defects, avoiding fear, and avoiding all bad things has always been a human instinct. It is understandable that Lu Xiuyuan would have such considerations. He Lianjin also because he could not face the fact that he handed over his beloved to another man. As for selective forgetting, it can be seen that Lu Xiuyuan's desire to escape the sentence given to him by the doctor is nothing to be ridiculed.

After all, Lu Chuan has practiced in the Buddhist Pure Land for 20 years, and he has a better understanding of human nature than others. After hearing Lu Xiuyuan's refusal again, he stopped forcing it.Although he really wants to "for his own good", but if this kind of "good" is based on Yuan'er's displeasure, then he will not force Yuan'er to do it.

The three brothers have always regarded Yuan'er more important than their own lives, otherwise they would not have sacrificed their careers to keep him safe in the Lu residence.

The uncle and nephew talked about other things again, and after a while, they heard a faint voice from outside the tea house, probably Su Yan had returned.

Sure enough, the sound of footsteps approached, and after a while, the person had already walked slowly into the door with his hands behind his back.

Looking at Lu Xiuyuan, the corners of Su Yan's mouth turned up slightly, "Master Lu is a rare visitor, when did you come?"

"It's been a while." Lu Xiuyuan couldn't stand up, so he cupped his hands to signal.

Su Yan's eyes shifted from Lu Xiuyuan to Lu Chuan, and he raised his eyebrows, "You two are brave enough to meet each other blatantly, are you not afraid that this matter will be heard by our old lady?"

Lu Xiuyuan chuckled, "If the Duke's mansion can't even keep this little secret, then you don't have to keep those useless subordinates, Mr. Guo, it's better to kill them with sticks early, so as not to keep them from becoming a disaster."

Su Yan raised the corners of his lips. He always knew that Lu Xiuyuan was a businessman on the surface. In fact, the personal power he held in his hands was comparable to that of some princes. After all, he was the richest man and earned money from Nanliang. He had no reason to turn against Nanliang. It is very possible to cultivate some personal forces to help him guard his property.It's just that Lu Xiuyuan, who has always been known as "gentle and moist as jade", suddenly said such harsh words, which made people a little unaccustomed, at least his third uncle was stunned on the spot.

Su Yan didn't react at all, walked to the main seat and sat down, the expression on his face had turned into a half-smile, "Young master Lu is used to being the hostile host, otherwise how could he forget, this is my territory, what should my people do?" Rewards and punishments can only be decided by my master."

This is an oath of territorial sovereignty.

To be honest, Su Yan's resentment towards Lu Xiuyuan is really deep. If it was someone like He Lianjin, he wouldn't bother to talk to him, but this one in front of him is different.Su Yan not only blamed Lu Xiuyuan for his hostility toward the Lu family over 20 years ago, but also because of this person's "unkindness" towards Wei Wei.

Although Lu Xiuyuan has not done anything particularly outrageous to Wei Wei until now, it does not mean that Su Yan can relax his vigilance.

There is a man who covets the daughter-in-law you have tried everything possible to marry. Even if his nature is not bad, as long as he is a man, he will mind and even take corresponding precautions.

Lu Chuan, who was standing by the side, has been in the mansion for almost a year, and he has already touched Su Yan's temper. When he heard it, he knew that this master was angry, so he hurriedly interceded, "Master Jiu is a lot, Yuaner, he is temporarily I accidentally said the wrong thing, and I hope you don't bother with him for the sake of the villain's dedication to caring for the flowers and plants this year."

After hearing this, Lu Xiuyuan raised his eyebrows and looked at Su Yan. He didn't feel that he was wrong at all, but just waited for Su Yan's reply.

Su Yan glanced at Lu Chuan indifferently, "Have you both finished what you need to say?"

"It's over." Lu Chuan lowered his head.

"Go down!"

Su Yan's attitude towards Lu Chuan himself is considered good, because Ge Yin saw that he did "do his best" this year, not only took care of the flowers and plants, but also kept the boundary between him and Mrs. Tai, and never crossed the line. In this respect, Su Yan admires Lu Chuan. If it were Su Yan himself, and let him stay at Wei Wei's mansion as a gardener all day long, he could do nothing but tend flowers and plants. Will be crazy.

Before Lu Chuan left, he looked for a chance to give Lu Xiuyuan a wink, intending to tell him that Su Yan's temper is not very good, so please speak slowly and don't provoke him anymore.

Lu Xiuyuan only smiled faintly, unable to tell whether he answered or not.

Lu Chuan retreated with a heart hanging.

"I wonder if the tea made from the water from the spring in Longquan Temple still suits your taste, Young Master Lu?"

Su Yan picked up the teacup and shook it lightly, his eyes fell on the ripples in the cup.

As soon as Lu Xiuyuan heard the contrast in Su Yan's attitude before and after, he knew that he had seen through his thoughts, "It seems that the Duke has already guessed that I have something to ask for you."

Su Yan smiled, noncommittal.

The fact that Lu Chuan worked as a gardener in the Duke's Mansion is an out-and-out secret in the eyes of outsiders. You must know that Lu Chuan is the third master of the Lu family. Even if he went to Longquan Temple to practice in name, it is worthy of respect in the eyes of the common people. One or two points - after all, I have practiced for 20 years, and I have cultivated some knowledge without virtue, and the longer I stay in the temple, the more I will be contaminated with the smell of Buddhist incense, and the people will naturally develop a kind of Look up and respect, no matter what he did before he became a monk, whether his reputation is good or not, it will not have much influence.

Lu Xiuyuan is such a perceptive person, it is impossible not to understand the consequences of this incident if it is exposed, but he still came and met Lu Chuan without any cover, which means that his real purpose is not to find Lu Chuan, but to find Lu Chuan. Find Su Yan.

"Young master Lu is a businessman. You pay attention to small things and big ones in business. Since you came to me, it means that you are sure that I will know what you want to ask, but I have never done business that loses money, and I don't do things that are not beneficial. Things, if you want to get what you want, you have to exchange more things.”

Lu Xiuyuan had already made preparations, so he was not surprised by what Su Yan said, "As long as the Duke can help me solve my doubts, I can consider whatever you want, as long as it is within my ability."

Su Yan smiled softly and seductively, "In the near future, I will choose a Fengshui place in the suburbs of Beijing to build the mausoleum that Wei Wei and I will use in a hundred years. I'm afraid I will have to trouble Master Lu for how much it will cost." You're bleeding a little bit."

bleeding?Is this some random bleeding?Lu Xiuyuan almost vomited blood first.

It is impossible for Su Yan's tomb to be ordinary. It is impossible to settle for a few hundred thousand taels of silver. One million taels is still a conservative estimate.

This "blood price" is too heavy.

"The Lord is going to ruin my family!" Lu Xiuyuan said with resentment, although compared to the whereabouts of his biological mother, no amount of money is worth mentioning in his eyes, but when he really picked it up and "mentioned it" , the flesh hurts and the heart hurts.

Su Yan signaled, "You might as well tell me, what do you want me for?"

Lu Xiuyuan took out the jade pendant after hesitating for a moment, turned the wheelchair to Su Yan and handed it to him, "Do you recognize this thing? Or, have you heard where it came from?" ?” Su Yan’s secret guards have astonishing accuracy and efficiency when it comes to information, and they never stop, almost every day to inquire about information, near, far, related to him, not related to him Yes, but Su Yan will touch on all "secrets". Lu Xiuyuan doesn't know what this person has in mind and what he wants to do, but he is quite impressed by this secret intelligence guard. Judging from the fact that there has been grievances, Su Yan must have information on everyone in the Lu family, including his biological mother.

Lu Xiuyuan's understanding was correct. Su Yan did have information on most of the Lu family, but he didn't expect that Lu Qingwan was ignored by Su Yan. Su Yan's sources of information about this person were limited. After so many years, no matter how powerful and heaven-defying the dark guard is, it is impossible to find all the information about a person's life and death. This is impossible.

However, no direct evidence can be found. It can be inferred that Su Yan spread the jade pendant in his palm and looked at it carefully for a while, then raised his head to look at Lu Xiuyuan.

Lu Xiuyuan immediately became nervous, did Su Yan really live up to his expectations?

"Master Lu, don't forget to take out the money for the construction of the mausoleum." In fact, the construction of the mausoleum has long been assigned to He Lianjin. Lu Xiuyuan has some money in his hands, he is not a good person in the first place, when dealing with his rival in love, if he can't kill him, he will take advantage of it as much as he can, since the other party has plenty of money anyway.

Lu Xiuyuan nodded, "The premise is that you have to help me find the source of the jade pendant."

Su Yan raised the jade pendant, "This jade pendant is not an ordinary decoration, but something similar to a token."

"Token?" Lu Xiuyuan frowned, "What is it for?"

"I don't know what it is used for." Su Yan looked at the jade pendant again, and after confirming the material, he said firmly: "But I dare say that this kind of thing comes from the Beiyan royal family."

Lu Xiuyuan was startled, his face darkened.

Northern Yan royal family.

It seems that his guess all along was right. He searched all over Nanliang and couldn't find any trace of his biological mother. She could only go to Beiyan. Besides, one of the people who kidnapped his mother had spoken with his accent, which revealed that he was from Beiyan. .

"Do you mean that there are many such things in Beiyan Palace?" Lu Xiuyuan asked impatiently. He already had some clues, so he couldn't just stop like this. Isn't it just to build a mausoleum? As long as he can get all the news about his biological mother, Even if the family really went bankrupt, he didn't care, he could make more money if he lost his money, but once the news was cut off, he would never be able to find out the truth and where his mother had gone.

"No." Su Yan shook his head, "Because it's a token, it won't be mass-produced. If I'm not wrong, it's an order from the emperor, and it's in the dark. There won’t be too many things, and it would be nice to have four or five. There is one thing I don’t know if you still remember, when Yi Baitou came back to Nanliang, he blinded Huang Miaoyu’s eyes, and he took it from her. It is exactly the same jade pendant as the one in your hand."

Lu Xiuyuan's expression was shocked, "Huang Miaoyu?"

Could that person have something to do with the Beiyan royal family?

"However, the owner of the jade pendant is not Huang Miaoyu. She just got it by accident. The person who really wore the jade pendant since childhood is Yun Jingshu."

Lu Xiuyuan once again showed a shocked expression. He had checked many people, most of them went to the brothel, but he never thought of checking the lady of the official family, but it turns out that he went in the wrong direction?
"I can tell you one more thing. The reason why Yun Jingshu was jailed was because someone who was looking for her arrived, and she was brought back to Beiyan by Yi Bai to recognize her ancestors."

"Who the hell is Yun Jingshu?"

"The princess of Jing'an Palace in Beiyan."

Beiyan, Beiyan again, if the jade pendant around Yun Jingshu's neck was worn since she was a child, then the person who gave her the jade pendant could only be her biological parents.

"It's a relic of her biological mother." Su Yan saw through what he was thinking.

Princess Jing'an?

Lu Xiuyuan frowned.Is it possible that there is some kind of connection between Princess Jing'an and his biological mother?Or, Princess Jing'an is his biological mother?

"That's all I know. What follows, you have to connect all the clues yourself." Su Yan returned the jade pendant to him, and immediately asked someone to prepare the Four Treasures of the Study, writing what Lu Xiuyuan promised as an IOU to "force" him Sign and draw.

Lu Xiuyuan was a little speechless, this person, is he still worried that he will go back on his word, such a big Lu family, even if he can run as a monk, he can't run away from the temple, as for?
After accepting the IOU, a rare smile appeared on Su Yan's face, "Master Lu, our trading time is over."

This is kicking people away just after cheating them.

Lu Xiuyuan was "kicked out" of the Duke's Mansion with a dark face.
