Chapter 469 Sudden death (3)
This matter caused quite a stir, although it will not spread to everyone in the capital, at least most of the upper-class people in the capital know about it, and everyone can talk about it at once, the Duke of Chang's Mansion has made a big splash Returning to the "limelight", He Zhao and Mrs. He were so ashamed that unless they had to, they would never step out of the house easily, and they also broke the hearts of countless ladies who admired He Zhixing openly and secretly. They couldn't believe that the lover of their dreams was actually Such a person!

However, everyone's attention did not stay on this matter for too long, because within a few days, an even more sensational thing happened. On the same day, both of them died suddenly in the eldest princess's mansion!
When the news came out, everyone was in an uproar, thinking of the rumors that Princess Fuhui and Master Lu San were at odds that they had heard before. It is said that the two had quarreled in front of the emperor and queen mother. Bearing the title of husband and wife, Master Lu San never stepped into the princess's mansion again, but lived in Dingguo's mansion for a long time in his own concubine's house bestowed by the queen mother. It is said that he was in love with that concubine Plus.

And Princess Fuhui is notoriously domineering, and even her daughter Jiahe, the county head, is also very domineering. I also know that Princess Fuhui will never watch her husband kiss other women under her nose Kiss me, me,——now that the eldest princess Fuhui and the third master Lu both died suddenly in the eldest princess's mansion, if there is nothing tricky in it, even a fool would not believe it!
For a moment, everyone was scratching their heads and wanting to know what's wrong with it, so naturally they couldn't care less about talking about He Zhixing and the Second Prince's nonsense.

It's a pity that the Dingguo Mansion's mouth is extremely strict, and everyone inquired and inquired, but they didn't find out why, so they had to wait for the official mourning day of the Dingguo Mansion, thinking about going to pay their condolences at that time. Can you find some clues?

People outside can't find out the truth about the sudden death of Princess Fuhui and Lu Zhongyu, but the inside of Dingguo's mansion can't hide it. Not to mention that everyone in the whole mansion knows about the incident, at least all the masters and their personal servants People, as well as the stewards in various industries in the two governments, all know it.

The cause of the matter has to be said that on the day of Mrs. Lu's birthday, Mrs. Xiao went to kowtow to Mrs. Lu and offered a birthday gift.

Because Princess Fuhui couldn't see Xiao Shi's frivolous look, she hated Lu Zhongyu for holding Xiao Shi in her mouth for fear of melting, holding her in her hands for fear of falling, and even Mrs. Lu praised her, so she ordered Xiao Shi to Make her 24 pairs of shoes.

If Xiao Shi was really a resigned person, when the tribe oppressed their orphans and widows, they would not be able to survive, how could they be today?He made a good promise face to face, and when he turned around, he deliberately stayed up all night. In the first two nights, because Lu Zhongyu had too many guests, he had to help with the entertainment, so he fell asleep when he came back drunk, so he didn't notice.

On the third night, because there were a lot fewer guests, Lu Zhongyu didn't need to drink as he did in the previous two days. When he returned to Ting Yuxuan, he was still very sober.

Only then did I realize that Mrs. Xiao was doing needlework under the lamp, and he had to beat his own waist after sitting for a while. It was obvious that he was uncomfortable sitting for a long time because of his big belly, his eyes were also red, and his face was full of tiredness. It was a temporary idea to pass the time by doing needlework, but it was like staying up for several nights in a row.

Lu Zhongyu naturally wanted to ask what was going on, and scolded the servants: "I don't know if your aunt is going to give birth soon, and you let her stay up all night like this. If there is any good or bad, I will see if I will pick you up!"

But Xiao said with a forced smile: "It's the concubines who do it themselves, and it's none of their business. By the way, the smell of alcohol on the master's body today is not as strong as the previous two days. Could it be that he drank less today?" , but it’s better to have a good rest, and there are still two days of wine in the future.” While tidying up the needle and thread in a panic, he ordered someone to bring the hangover soup.

In this panic, he "accidentally" overturned the basket, revealing the cut insoles inside. Lu Zhongyu saw that there were more than a dozen pairs, and they were clearly the size of an adult, not Xiao Shi as he thought. I'm making something myself for the baby in my belly.

Lu Zhongyu immediately turned cold, and asked Xiao what was going on, but Xiao naturally refused to say anything, so he pressed Pingxiu again, and Pingxiu vaguely asked Princess Fuhui to ask her aunt to make shoes for her I said it again, and finally called Qu Qu on behalf of Xiao Shi: "Poor our aunt is about to give birth, and she dare not stop day and night. I beg the master to look at the child in our aunt's womb even if you don't look at the adults. You must make decisions for her." what!"

"Damn poisonous woman!" Lu Zhongyu immediately flew into a rage, and swept out like a gust of wind, and went straight to the eldest princess's mansion to find the eldest princess Fuhui to seek justice for the Xiao family. He and Pingxiu looked at each other with a smile, and packed up the sewing basket contentedly.

Furious, Lu Zhongyu arrived at Princess Chang's mansion, but ran into Lu Wenzhu head-on. Lu Zhongyu still attached great importance to his only son so far. When he saw his son greeting him, he softened his expression a little.

Lu Wenzhu himself was smart, seeing his father approaching angrily, he knew that he must have come to quarrel with his mother, and in a few words, he tricked Lu Zhongyu into explaining what was going on.

He first followed Lu Zhongyu's words and said something wrong with Princess Fuhui, and after Lu Zhongyu's anger subsided a little bit, he persuaded Lu Zhongyu: "The reason why mother is like this is because she cares too much about father. For this reason, I also beg my father not to see the old man cry when he only sees the newcomer laughing. Aunt Xiao’s room is full of maids and women. Aunt Xiao can let them do it for her. That's all, if it makes mother feel better, won't everyone save a lot of trouble?"

He also begged Lu Zhongyu to wrong Aunt Xiao once for the sake of him and Lu Mingzhu who married far away, and he would definitely take care of the child in Aunt Xiao's womb, after all, he was also his younger brother Yunyun.

Lu Zhongyu turned his anger into joy when he said that, and turned around to listen to Yuxuan.

Mrs. Xiao originally thought that she would wait for Lu Zhongyu to say that she would not have to pay attention to Princess Fuhui's words in the future, but she didn't want to wait for Lu Zhongyu to say that she would wrong him and made a few pairs of shoes for Princess Fuhui symbolically, and let the girl do the rest. If the mother-in-law helped to do it, when she turned around and inquired, it was Lu Wenzhu who was messing with her, so she couldn't help but secretly gritted her silver teeth.

While gritting his teeth, he couldn't help but think that it seems that Lu Wenzhu still has a lot of weight in Lu Zhongyu's heart. If he invites Lu Zhongyu over every now and then, and creates another opportunity for Lu Zhongyu and Princess Fuhui to reunite again, he and the child in his womb will be reunited. Wouldn't they all be in a worrying situation and have no better life?

Xiao felt an unprecedented crisis. If Princess Fuhui was just an ordinary woman, it would be fine. Even if Lu Zhongyu was with her again, she didn't have to be afraid, but the other party was the princess, and it was better to crush herself It has always been hard for the ants to go anywhere, if Lu Zhongyu doesn't completely hate her, and if they don't completely cut off all the possibilities of their reunion, wouldn't she even want to sleep peacefully in the future!
