Chapter 535 If you do too much injustice, you will die.
During the Chinese New Year, the palace was extremely lively and full of joy. The masters of each palace gave gifts continuously, and the palace maids and eunuchs were also really happy.
Among them, Lu Shian was the most generous one.
She is now a wealthy woman. Not to mention the rewards from the Emperor, the Grand Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother, the money she earns herself is enough for her to squander.
It was not until the seventh day of the New Year that the ministers began to attend court and the festive atmosphere gradually faded.
The first thing Qin Qiubai's father Qin Zhong and Wei Feng did when they went to court was to write a letter to report Duke Liu.
With the testimonies of Steward Yu and Wang Youcai, as well as the testimony of Guo Daming and Guo Ermeng, it is impossible for Duke Liu to change his confession.
After reading the memorial, Li Hongting flew into a rage and threw it heavily on Duke Liu's face.
"Duke Liu, look at what you have done."
Duke Liu did not expect that he would be reported by the two of them on the first day of court after the New Year.
At the very beginning, he was wholeheartedly thinking about how to deal with Lu Shian, the queen in the harem. He never thought that she would join forces with the officials of the previous dynasty to deal with him.
The memorials were thrown in his face, but he didn't even look at them. He just kept kowtowing and crying out for injustice.
"Your Majesty, I am innocent. I am innocent."
"You still dare to complain that it's unfair. How can it be false if your housekeeper wrote it himself?"
"Butler Yu is good at disguising himself, and I was kept in the dark. I only found out not long ago that he had done such a wrong thing behind my back. I was just about to send him to the government, but he ran away. I was thinking of reporting him to the government after the New Year, but before I could, he..."
"Your Majesty, I am innocent. I am innocent!"
"Old man, do you think I'm a fool? How could a butler be so bold without your instruction?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... You can't listen to slander."
Wei Feng was displeased: "Duke Liu, are you saying that I have wronged you?"
Duke Liu: "Lord Wei, we have no hatred in the past and no grudge in the present, why do you want to harm me?"
Wei Feng: "As a parent official, I will naturally seek justice for the people. Lord Liu, you should take care of yourself."
Qin Zhong also said: "Duke Liu, if you do too much evil, you will surely perish."
Duke Liu turned to look at Li Hongting and said, "Your Majesty, I am innocent. I am innocent. I am innocent..."
"That's enough. Take Duke Liu to jail. Qin Zhong and Wei Feng's case will be judged by the two of you."
Wei Feng: "As you wish."
Qin Zhong: "As you wish."
The Duke's Mansion was sealed off and all the people in it were detained.
I thought that what was uncovered was enough of a headache for the Duke's Mansion, but who knew that it would be revealed that many maids and servants were beaten and killed in the backyard of the inner house.
The Duke's Mansion was suddenly pushed to the forefront.
When Lu'er told these rumors to Lu Shi'an, Lu Shi'an couldn't help but sigh.
"As expected, if you do too many bad things, you will be punished."
Qin Mansion.
Lu Xianchun originally wanted to make two pieces of clothes for Chen'er, but Zhinian pestered her and asked him to play shuttlecock with him.
Lu Xianchun couldn't persuade him, so he had to accompany him to the small garden to play for a while.
How could I play shuttlecock at my age? I was just jealous when I saw other kids playing it.
When it was his turn to kick, he couldn't kick a single one.
After trying several times without success, the little guy became anxious.
Lu Xianchun looked at Zhinian's irritable look and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
She picked up the shuttlecock from the ground and said, "Don't be impatient when learning to play shuttlecock. Look, throw the shuttlecock up like this, and then kick it. When kicking, don't use too much force. You also need to learn to use clever strength. Look, just like this..."
Lu Xianchun was explaining while kicking the ball. Seeing his mother kicking so well, Zhinian couldn't help but applaud.
"Mom, you are so awesome."
"Wow, it's so high. It's so high. Mom, teach me, teach me."
Seeing the mother and son in the distance, Liu Rulan took a deep breath and walked towards them slowly.
The mother and son, who were having a great time, stopped laughing when they saw Liu Rulan coming.
"Zhi Nian, let's go back and eat something first, okay? Then we can learn to play shuttlecock."
Zhinian nodded obediently: "Okay."
The mother and son turned around to leave, but Liu Rulan was quick enough to stop them.
Lu Xianchun thought Liu Rulan would cause trouble for him as before.
Who knew that once Liu Rulan opened her mouth, Lu Xianchun didn't know how to respond.
"Sister Xianchun, I'm playing with the kids."
Her tone was not as domineering as before, and even had a hint of flattery.
Lu Xianchun, who was already ready to fight, suddenly didn't know what to say.
After a long while, he replied, "Yeah."
Then she was about to drag her son back, but Liu Rulan smiled apologetically and held Zhinian's hand.
"Hey, why are you going back so early? Just play for a while. Zhinian, do you want to play shuttlecock? I'm really good at it. Come, I'll play with you."
Liu Rulan thought her smile was sincere, but Zhinian's deep-rooted impression of her was not good. Seeing Liu Rulan reaching out to pull him, Zhinian was so scared that he struggled to hide behind Lu Xianchun.
"Mother, mother..."
Liu Rulan couldn't even keep her fake smile on after hearing these calls.
Lu Xianchun didn't even want to deal with it anymore, and said directly: "We two mothers won't play anymore."
Seeing Lu Xianchun was about to leave, Liu Rulan's face changed, and she hurriedly called out: "Wait."
Lu Xianchun roughly guessed what she was going to do, which was simply for her parents' home.
"Sister Xianchun, I, I..."
She was always proud, but at this moment she didn't know how to open her mouth to ask for help.
After she cried a few times, her tears started to flow down and she grabbed Lu Xianchun and begged.
"Xianchun, it was all my fault before. I deserve to die. Can you please, can you please beg your sister, please the Concubine Xian, please ask her to spare my family."
Lu Xianchun looked down at the hands that were holding him, and silently pulled his hands back.
"I am a woman, I don't understand these things, and I can't help you with this matter."
At this time, it would be considered kind of her not to step on her. She didn't know what Liu Rulan was thinking, as she actually came to her for begging.
"You can, you definitely can. I know this is the work of the Concubine Xian. The Emperor loves the Concubine Xian so much. As long as the Concubine Xian is willing to plead, the Emperor will definitely listen."
In fact, Liu Rulan didn't want to ask Lu Xianchun for help. She had asked everything she could and couldn't ask for, and most people chose to avoid her.
Even Qin Qiubai asked her to stay in the room and not come out.
She is a joke now, a joke of the whole Anjing. Her father-in-law sent her father to jail.
And she is also pregnant with the Qin family's blood...
Lu Xianchun took Zhinian and walked away, leaving Liu Rulan standing there, silently shedding tears.
There were maids passing by, but they walked past quickly with their heads down, as if they didn't see Liu Rulan.
Liu Rulan angrily cursed: "You are just a bunch of bastards who flatter the powerful and look down on the weak."
