"I am from the Qiu family. If something happens to me, the Qiu family will definitely not let you go."

Lu Rui looked at Qiu Ruoshui with pity: "You don't understand yet, you have been given up by the Qiu family."

Qiu Ruoshui shook her head: "Impossible."

Seeing her like this, Lu Rui explained a few words kindly.

"The Qiu family sent a dead soldier to assassinate the third brother but failed. I have already caught him. In order to protect himself, Akimeshan has to sacrifice you. Of course, you are not wronged, because killing the third brother is what you mean."

Qiu Ruoshui staggered, how could he fail?

No wonder I haven't received the news yet, but when I think about it, I feel it's impossible. Lu Rui must be cheating on him.

"I don't know what you are talking about. It's impossible for my brother to send someone to assassinate the third brother."

Lu Rui: "It doesn't matter whether Akimeyama personally ordered it. We just need to catch a dead soldier and make sure that he was trained by your Qiu family."

"Send someone to attack the Dali Temple Prison. Your Qiu family is so bold. Your Majesty doesn't want to hear such news."

Seeing Qiu Ruoshui being hit hard, Lu Rui said again.

"An King An, I was very angry when I learned that Akimeyama actually went to sneak attack Dali Temple with him on his back..."

"So, Akimayama finally had to make a choice..."

Qiu Ruoshui's face turned pale like paper, and she couldn't believe it. The younger brother who had been saying that she had been wronged over the years and wanted to support her behind her was easily given up on her.

And the man he loved the most, Lu Zheng, has not appeared yet.

In an instant, Qiu Ruoshui felt as if she had become a lonely man.

In fact, Akimeshan naturally chose not to give up Qiu Ruoshui so easily, but after weighing the interests of all parties, he had to give up Qiu Ruoshui.

First, King An was unwilling to bring his relationship with the Qiu family to the surface at this time.

Second, Lu Rui could not tolerate Qiu Ruoshui, and he did not have the strength to protect her.

As for the siblings, it is so insignificant in the face of more benefits, and this is reality.

"Where is the Duke of the National People? Go and see if the Duke of the National People are here." Qiu Ruoshui collapsed and shouted.

The servants hurried out, but ran back after a while and shook their heads in frustration.

Qiu Ruoshui collapsed on the chair, his face pale. Just when Xie Wenwan thought she was about to fall, Lu Xun and Lu Shanshan finally arrived.

"Auntie..."

The two of them came in and saw that Qiu Ruoshui was in a wrong state, so they ran over immediately.

After holding the hand of his son and daughter, Qiu Ruoshui felt a little strength.

Yesterday, there was an assassin in Wanyuan, and Lu Xun naturally heard the news, but at this sensitive time, he also guessed that it was related to his aunt, so he chose not to interfere.

Now seeing Aunt Qiu being scared like this, he guessed that Lu Rui came to ask for guilt.

"Brother, are you looking for your aunt because there was an assassin in your sister-in-law's yard yesterday?"

Although Lu Zheng has always loved Lu Xun, Lu Xun and Lu Rui have a good relationship.

Lu Xun respects Lu Rui since childhood. Naturally, the reason for respect is because he has seen Lu Rui's strength.

When Lu Rui was still in his teenage years, he had already gone to the battlefield.

You can fight for a way out when you are besieged by hundreds of enemy troops.

Although such a brother is only half a year older than him, Lu Xun feels beyond his reach.

Therefore, he did not have much obsession with the position of prince of the Duke's Mansion.

Lu Rui glanced at Lu Xun and Lu Shanshan.

"Say goodbye to Aunt Qiu."

Lu Xun was stunned: "Brother, say...what does it mean?"

Lu Rui: "Aunt Qiu betrayed the Duke's Mansion and is now dealt with by family law."

Lu Xun's face changed drastically: "Why did you say this, but because there was an assassin in Wanyuan yesterday, I beg you to give your aunt another chance."

Lu Shanshan was also so scared that her face was pale and quickly supported Aunt Qiu: "What happened to Aunt?"

Lu Rui looked at Lu Xun and said directly: "Aunt Qiu asked Akimeshan to send someone to Dali Temple yesterday to assassinate the third brother."

Lu Xun looked at Aunt Qiu in disbelief: "Auntie, is this true?"

Aunt Qiu looked at Lu Xun's disappointed eyes and explained with a panic: "Brother Xun, you heard from Auntie, Auntie is just..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lu Rui.

"I will not make this public. At that time, I will announce to the public that Aunt Qiu died of illness, so that her reputation for the second brother and the third sister will not be affected."

When Lu Shanshan heard this, she knelt in front of Lu Rui: "Brother, please spare my aunt, my aunt will never dare to do it again."

Lu Rui looked at Lu Shanshan, and disappointment flashed in his eyes.

"The bottom line of the Lu family is that they cannot betray the Lu family, not to mention your aunt, or me or my father. If we do something that is sorry to the Lu family, you can deal with it with the rules of the family."

Lu Shanshan was so anxious that she was incoherent: "Yes...but she is my aunt."

Lu Rui: "When your aunt joined forces with the Qiu family and the Shangguan family, she was no longer worthy of being a member of the Lu family."

Lu Rui stayed in the army and hated the traitors the most. He was ruthless to the traitors. In the end, he might be himself and his comrades.

Lu Xun didn't expect that there was something about the Shangguan family, so he shook his head: "How could my aunt join forces with the Shangguan family?"

Lu Rui: "The grain draft originally involved Shangguan Chao. Your aunt came up with an idea and successfully convinced the Shangguan family to let them take the third brother to blame."

"In exchange, the Shangguan family agreed that when my father divorced his wife and helped Aunt Qiu to be upright, they would not stand up for my mother."

When Lu Xun heard this, his shoulders suddenly drooped. When he heard that his wife had divorced and his aunt was straightened, Lu Xun knew that all this was true.

Because the aunt has always wanted to replace her mother, she has been crazy in the past few years. He thought that reality would make her mother give up, but she didn't expect that she would take the risk.

Seeing Lu Xun's disappointed eyes, Qiu Ruoshui was afraid.

"Brother Xun, you save your aunt, and your aunt does this for you."

"You are obviously the master's favorite son, but you should inherit the Duke's Mansion..."

Xie Wenwan thinks Qiu Ruoshui is really a talented person and is still applying eye drops to her son.

Lu Xun roared angrily: "Enough aunt, what should I do? The eldest brother is a legitimate and I am a illegitimate, and the eldest brother is the eldest brother. The aunt told me why should I inherit it?"

"Auntie, you have been dreaming, you are looking forward to something that does not belong to you. Have you not repent until now?"
