Lu Wenze has been so busy lately that he has no time to take care of himself.
That bitch Pei Jinting has been like a mad dog these days, constantly causing trouble for him.
One of his errands has been lost.
It will be difficult to get it back for a while.
Recently, he had to tuck his tail in the court and was really having a hard time.
At this moment, Lu Wenze was writing furiously behind the desk. If he wanted to get back the lost errand, he would also have to make other matters in Pei Jinting's hands go into serious trouble.
Everyone said that Pei Jinting was just a dandy who only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun, but he was just such a dandy, and he felt at ease to win the emperor's favor.
Pei Jinting helped to accomplish many things that the emperor could not accomplish.
Even this time when the prince led everyone to inspect the counties around the suburbs of Beijing, it was Pei Jinting who actually handled the matter.
The evening breeze blew through Lu Wenze's temples in front of the window, making him as cold as if his brows carved by frost and snow had been kissed by the wind.
After a long time, Lu Wenze stopped writing, folded the letter, and handed it to the attendant at the desk.
"Master Marquis..." The attendant stopped talking.
Lu Wenze raised his eyes and looked at his entourage, half-supporting the side of his face with his palms, and tapping his temples with his slender fingers.
"explain."
The follower heard the mania in his words and hesitated, saying,
"There is a woman surnamed Chen who claims to be Mr. Pei's third cousin. She has left a message for you...making an appointment to meet in Linjiangxian."
Of course Lu Wenze knew about Pei Jinting's bitch cousin Chen. What would a woman with ulterior motives like her do to him?
He has been sending people to keep an eye on the goings-on at the Pei family.
Knowing that Mrs. Chen, under Pei Jinting's encouragement, separated from her husband's family, she moved to live in Pei Jinting's other courtyard.
There were rumors in the public that it was possible that Third Young Master Pei wanted to take this woman into his concubine?
Lu Wenze thought for a moment, then chuckled and said,
"I understand. Let someone reply and tell me that I will attend the appointment on time."
He picked up the pen, stirred it in the pen washer, and looked at the muddy water.
With a playful smile on his lips, he said, "I am going to meet this cousin of the Pei family."
The entourage bowed and exited.
The appointed day arrived.
Wait until the day we agree to meet.
Just as Lu Wenze got off the carriage, he happened to see Chen Zhao getting off the carriage as well.
The two met, their eyes met, and they both understood the deep meaning in each other's eyes, and each had their own hidden agenda.
In the private room, Chen Zhao covered his mouth and smiled, saying,
"Thank you Lord Lu for your honor."
Lu Wenze didn't have any good impression of such a woman. He was so indifferent,
"I have to go to the Yamen later. Madam Chen, please hurry up if you want to say anything."
Chen Zhao was startled when he saw the path of blood.
"The Marquis's errands have all been snatched away. I guess there aren't that many errands waiting for you to handle in the Yamen."
Chen Zhao's heartbeat was racing. Ever since he learned that Pei Jinting had kidnapped his bride, Gu Qingyuan knew the truth clearly.
She seemed to be possessed by a demon. She wanted the world to know how shameless Gu Qingyuan was.
Chen Zhao sighed,
"Master Lu is supposed to have his wife in his arms at this time. If his luck is better, he will become a father soon."
"pity……"
Lu Wenze's cold eyes stared at Chen Zhaodao with a sneer,
"Ms. Chen is so thoughtful, so provocative. Just state your purpose directly."
"Do you think Pei San will marry you without A Yuan?"
Chen Zhao's expression was unbearable,
"Master Lu, what are you talking about? When did I say that my cousin would marry me? I am a divorced woman..."
Lu Wenze,
"It doesn't matter if you get married or get divorced. Hasn't Mrs. Chen always wanted to be Mrs. Pei Sanshao?"
Why doesn't Chen Zhao think about it? Of course she does.
Lu Wenze tugged his lips contemptuously. He was used to it as a commander in the Infantry Division, and his words also had a commanding tone.
"Ms. Chen, tell me what you want to say. If you don't say it, don't waste my time."
When he cooled his face and glanced at Chen Zhao with sharp eyes, Chen Zhao pinched his palms tightly with a ferocious look on his face.
"Master Lu, are you still obsessed with the eldest daughter of the Gu family? You feel that she was robbed by someone, and you are trying every means to get her back?"
A mysterious smile appeared on the corner of her lips, "What if that innocent and good girl of yours conspired with outsiders to have someone come to steal your bride..."
"Do you want to take it back?"
Her words were like a deadly ghost that kept ringing out.
Lu Wenze frowned, and a cold murderous look appeared on Junyi's face.
"What nonsense are you talking about!."
He gritted his teeth and said word by word, "You can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately."
This clearly means that Gu Qingyuan was having an affair with another man behind his back, and it was unclear.
His throat was beating, the words were passing between his lips and tongue, and he suppressed his anger and said,
"Ms. Chen, you'd better come up with evidence...otherwise..."
His hand was holding the handle of the knife on the side with murderous intent.
But he also knew in his heart that Chen Zhao was not crazy and did not dare to talk nonsense on such a matter.
Something seemed to explode in Lu Wenze's mind.
He had never considered this possibility.
He has always placed his full hatred on Pei Jinting.
But what if A-Yuan knew about the bride-kidnapping?
What if she was involved?
He remembered that on the wedding night, he rode back from Tongzhou and chased Pei Jinting to his villa.
Obviously, nothing was accomplished at that time.
If Ayuan goes back home with him, everything will be the same as before.
But she...she pushed his hand away and went to Pei Jinting's side.
Lu Wenze's heart contracted violently. He pressed hard, but there was no relief. His throat felt sweet, and hot blood poured into his mouth.
He tried hard to swallow it back, but blood still flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Chen Zhao was startled.
He quickly called people loudly.
Outside the door, the entourage brought by Lu Wenze broke in. Upon seeing this, they immediately rushed over and pressed several of his acupuncture points.
"Master Hou, calm down your breath and don't be emotional!"
Lu Wenze took two breaths, swallowed the blood in his mouth, and said,
"Nothing. Get out!"
Lu Wenze was heartbroken.
He pressed his heart hard.
He didn't understand why Gu Qingyuan treated him like this.
Isn't he good enough for her?
"Ms. Chen, tell the truth from the truth...if there is even one word that is wrong..."
Lu Wenze took two deep breaths to relieve the pain in his heart and said,
"I'll show you what the prison of the Infantry Division is like."
Chen Zhao swallowed and saw deep disgust and hatred in Lu Wenzesen's cold and sinister eyes.
She had no doubt that he would really take her to the Infantry Division prison.
At the Duke's Mansion, Gu Qingyuan took inventory of the belongings in the mansion, as well as the servants and the like.
Gu Zhiyuan's family moved out and the place was in a mess. Over the past few days, it has gradually returned to its previous appearance.
I just wait for the Duke of Zhen to come back one day and hand over the mansion to him intact.
She thought that the Qin family would definitely bless Duke Zhen in heaven, and he would definitely come back alive from the border.
When leaving the Zhenguo Palace, Gu Qingyuan's eyelids twitched. Among the passers-by, a figure suddenly appeared with an unkind look on his face, as if a storm was about to come.
