Chapter 11 Cousin Doesn't Believe Me
As soon as they saw Li Rui, Grandma Liu and others, who were already in panic, collapsed to the ground in fear and kept begging for mercy.
Li Ruihei stepped into the house with a sullen face and asked Lan Cao to help Lu Wan rest on the couch, leaving Lan Ying to ask the whole story.
Lan Ying was very articulate, and in a few words she explained clearly what happened to Nanny Liu, who broke into the courtyard, arrested people, and burned her wedding dress.
Finally, she glanced at Lu Youning, who was silent, and sneered: "If no one instructs me, no matter how bold these people are, they will not dare to humiliate my young lady like this. I beg Your Highness to make the decision for my young lady, otherwise, I will really be punished."
He died unjustly."
Li Rui's face was gloomy and there was no trace of happiness or anger.
Lu Youning glanced at Li Rui, gritted his teeth and said with a pale face: "It's just because my sister went to the east chamber that day and there were gossips in the house... For the sake of my sister's innocence, I asked Nanny Liu to come..."
After Li Rui heard this, his pupils suddenly shrank, and his eyes suddenly turned cold.
The next moment, he stood up and came to the couch, suddenly reached out and pinched Lu Wan's chin, his eyes fell on her face, and he half-smiled: "Have you been to the east chamber!? What were you going to do? Huh?"
At this moment, Lu Wan was all too familiar with the cruelty in his eyes.
Another figure of him appeared in front of her, wearing a bright yellow prince's court uniform. He pinched her chin and said to her in the same tone: "You are pregnant with his child! Why are you so careless? Huh?"
Since her rebirth, Lu Wan has been plagued by nightmares every night. She dreamed countless times that Li Rui personally poured red flower soup into her stomach and brutally killed the child in her belly.
No matter how she begged or struggled, he sat motionless until he saw the blood gushing out from between her legs before he was satisfied and let her go...
This man is so cruel to her!
Gritting her teeth to suppress the surging hatred in her heart, Lu Wan met his gaze with a resentful look on her face: "My cousin doesn't believe me..."
Tears came out instantly.
Li Rui was startled.
She has never been so coquettish and cowardly. As those people outside said, although she looks coquettish, because she grew up in the palace, her speech and behavior are like a piece of wood, and she cannot arouse any interest or pity from people.
But at this moment, she seemed to have changed. Her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, the tip of her nose was red, her starry eyes were full of water, and her tears were falling down like broken beads, making her look like a pear blossom with tears in it.
The more she cried, the fiercer she became. She raised her hand to wipe her tears, and Li Rui's eyes caught the fire-burnt bubbles on her hand.
He recalled how he had just seen her outside the house, not even using her hands to protect her wedding dress, and the suspicion in his heart could not help but dissipate.
He calmed down and held her hand, blew gently on her wound, and coaxed: "I believe you. But - what are you doing in the wing?"
As she got closer, the ambergris on his body rushed straight into her nose. Lu Wan gritted her teeth to hold back the nausea in her stomach, and sobbed: "I just copied the scriptures and went to the small ancestral hall to burn them. When I passed there, I was burned."
Misunderstood……"
Li Rui smiled slightly and said, "That's it."
But he turned around and told Yu An: "Go and call the prince here. He will definitely settle this matter today - it's just a maid. I don't believe that I can't find her."
After giving the order, he turned back to look at Lu Wan and said with a smile: "What my third cousin said earlier makes sense. Why don't you let me take a look at it so that I can clear your name?"
Lu Wan's heartstrings tightened and his body felt chilly.
This is Li Rui. He never trusts anyone easily. This is especially similar to the eldest princess - everyone in the royal family's Li family is like this.
Even if she burned herself with a cruel trick and hit a pillar in front of him, he wouldn't believe it.
In other words, until the maid in the wing is found, he won't really believe her...
Lu Youning on the side heard Li Rui's words, his eyes lit up, and he immediately said: "My cousin is wise, why not let Aunt Liu take a physical examination for my sister, and let her make up for it."
Aunt Liu, who was kneeling outside in fear, listened to Lu Youning's words, quickly got up, entered the house, and walked towards Lu Wan.
"Second Miss, I'm offended!"
Seeing Nanny Liu getting closer and closer, Lu Wan fell into despair.
At this moment, she was like a cornered animal, with swords and axes coming at her from all sides, but no one came to save her!
She couldn't help but think of Li Yi.
