Step by step lotus flower

Chapter 365
Lu Mingya was in pain all over her body, and her heart was full of despair, but she didn't anger Du Juan and Shaoyao as usual, she only gritted her teeth with hatred for Mrs. Lu and Lu Mingxuan, especially Lu Mingxuan, who cursed because of hatred, : "Bitch, let me see if you can hide for a while, if you can hide for a lifetime, I will wait and see how you will be tortured in the future!"

Hearing this, Du Juan exchanged glances with Shao Yao, and then cautiously said after a long while: "Master, today it is because you said Miss Xuan could not escape His Highness's palm, that His Highness... let you go, in case Ling After the young master returned to Beijing, he really agreed to marry Miss Xuan. What should we do then? The year before last, Mr. Ling refused to marry the second and fifth girls. At that time, his family title was still there, so his vision was naturally higher. Now that his family's title has been taken away, being able to marry a side branch like Miss Xuan is already a tall order for him now, and Miss Xuan is much more beautiful than the second and fifth girls. Is there any man who doesn't like beauties? , Mr. Xian is now an official, he is no longer just helping out in the mansion, slaves are really worried..."

When Lu Mingya heard this, her heart skipped a beat. How could she have forgotten this? Without the title of the eldest son of the Marquis of Guangping, Ling Mengqi is just a mere fifth-rank military officer, who can marry Lu Mingxuan and raise him like this. Isn't Mrs. Lu's side branch girl Gao Pan?
The thought flashed across her mind, and she suddenly thought again, didn't she witness that bitch Lu Mingxuan and Ling Mengqi having a private meeting during the Lantern Festival that year? Maybe the two had already had a relationship, and that's why Ling Mengqi refused. For Lu Mingli and Lu Mingxin, if this was the case, wouldn't the day when Ling Mengqi returned to Beijing be his own death day?Even though I am a girl from the Duke's Mansion, a side concubine bestowed by the emperor, her natal family has long since ignored her, and the emperor has no reason to ask her son to blame for the sudden "violent death" of one of his son's concubines. save yourself!

Lu Mingya fell into an ice cave in an instant, and she couldn't help shaking, no, she can't sit and wait for death, she has to try to save herself, but how can she save herself?

There is absolutely no way to count on her natal family, and the concubine Shu in the palace has absolutely no reason to help her to make her son unhappy, Xiao Xu and the other concubines are even more eager for her to die immediately... Yes, child, now The only thing that can save her is the child. She must get pregnant with the child before Ling Mengqi returns to the capital. Then, for the sake of the child, His Highness will not do anything to her!
Lu Mingya had an idea, and felt a little more at ease, but how can she get pregnant as soon as possible without the second prince's knowledge?Drugs and alcohol are not acceptable, this will only make him more excited, but will hurt himself more seriously, or just make him faint?But he is unconscious, so how can he succeed?
Because of this, Lu Mingya said she was ill and did not go out for the next few days, thinking all the time how she could conceive a child as soon as possible. Of course, part of the reason was that she was seriously injured this time and her body did not allow her to go out. She didn't have the face to go out to see Mrs. Xu and others for a short time.

However, before she could come up with a perfect plan, something happened suddenly in the second prince's mansion. A couple of civilians who claimed to be from Wanping County found the door of the second prince's mansion, and they kept denouncing their daughter, saying that their daughter was born this year. San Yue was forcibly snatched away when they went out. After many inquiries, they found out that the person who snatched their daughter was actually from the second prince's residence. Then they found the second prince's residence and begged the second prince to show mercy. Return her daughter to them.

This matter was quickly spread in the capital. Before the second prince's residence had time to respond, several couples came to the door. Some were begging for their daughters, and some said that their daughters had been killed by the second prince. Killed, they came here to seek justice.

Although all these people were dismissed by the second prince's mansion in some way, they fell into the eyes of Yu Shitai. It is the prince's chief assistant who still has to come out to plead guilty. When the crime is serious, he can't even take it seriously. What's more, the second prince is just studying politics with the Ministry of War.

He was interviewed by the censor and said that he was "excessively lewd, disregarding human life, the emperor broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people, please the emperor to see clearly and make a decision early!" Afterwards, the emperor immediately grounded him and ordered people from the clan's mansion to go to the second prince's mansion for a thorough investigation.

The second prince knew that he had been framed, but firstly, he knew that in order to please him, the people at the bottom of the day would buy those little girls by force. After he started, he wanted to send everyone away several times, but he was afraid that he would actually send them away, so he would startle the enemy and fall into the trap of those who framed him, so that now those little girls are still in his house.

Therefore, when the people from the clan's mansion came to investigate, it was immediately clear that those little girls, as the sufferers, didn't hate the second prince. Cleanly, I told them what the second prince did to them in the usual days, together with the fact that the second prince's residence would secretly throw the corpses to the mass grave outside the city every now and then in the past two years.

As soon as the news came out, the whole court was in an uproar. They couldn't believe that the second prince, who was usually gentle and elegant, would be such a beast in clothes. Those little girls who were trampled by him hadn't grown up yet. The youngest was only ten years old. A child, how on earth can he do it?

Not to mention those innocent souls who were humiliated to death by him, could it be that just because he is the prince, can he be so tyrannical and dissolute, disregarding human life?All the officials, civil and military, came forward one after another to ask the emperor to punish the second prince severely, so as to make an example of others!

The emperor was furious, and immediately issued an order to beat the second prince with forty slaps, confine him for three years, and fine him a salary of five years. All the little girls killed by him will be buried generously, and their parents and relatives will be searched for, and their parents and relatives will be compensated accordingly. However, those who are still alive by chance will be sent back to their homes and compensated accordingly.

Even concubine Xiao Shu in the palace was implicated, and was directly demoted by the emperor from the concubine Shu of the first rank to the concubine of the fifth rank, a full eight ranks. up.

Naturally, Lu Mingxuan's crisis was completely resolved as a result.

However, Ling Mengqi, who was far away in the south of the Yangtze River at that time, didn't know that he went to the south of the Yangtze River this time to investigate the embankment corruption case. He didn't know until after he went that the third prince was also ordered to go, but the third prince knew that he was there. It is dark, and the officialdom in Jiangnan is far more official and protective than he imagined. He has been in Jiangnan for more than a month.

That night, as soon as he returned to the inn where he was staying from outside exhausted, Hu Zi greeted him eagerly, saluted and said with a smile: "Master, miss Xuan has sent a letter."
