After Rebirth, I Became the Treacherous Minister Black Moonlight

Chapter 22 The Lu family is in bad luck

The father and son went to the Governor's Mansion without stopping, but they didn't know that Lu Yuan was not there either.

Lu Lingxiao frowned: "Father? Where did the Governor go?"

Lu Xingzhou shook his head: "As a father, I don't know."

"Father, is he avoiding us on purpose?"

Lu Lingxiao didn't have any good impressions of this governor who was only a few years older than him but had all the power in the government.

Lu Xingzhou didn't think Lu Yuan would avoid them on purpose, but he was quite surprised.

Lu Yuan was a little domineering, but he was still diligent. Where was he? Is there anything more important than going to court in the morning?

Buddhist temple.

Lu Yuanzhi, dressed in purple, sat on the cold futon, with Baoshu dressed as a tiger cub crawling behind him.

Opposite him was an elderly gray-robed monk.

The monk sat upright, twirling Buddhist beads in his hand, his eyes vacant.

Lu Yuan poured him a cup of tea himself and put the hot teapot back on the table.

Baoshu reached out to grab it, but Lu Yuan took it away.

Baoshu went to grab the snacks on the table again, but this time Lu Yuan didn't care. She took advantage of him and stuffed them into her mouth, and vomited them out in a disgusting manner!

Lu Yuan said: "I heard that you are sick. Are you feeling better?"

The monk said nothing.

Lu Yuan smiled: "There are spies from Beiliang. There are five of them in total, and none of them are alive."

The monk remained silent and did not drink the tea that Lu Yuan poured for him. He just twisted the beads in his hand methodically.

Lu Yuan poured himself a cup of tea: "Five years ago, Marshal Chu was killed by his wife, Yumen Pass was lost, the army of 200,000 was almost destroyed, and the 10,000 black armored guards who were only loyal to Marshal Chu were missing. , without the Chu family guarding the border, it is like a tired egg, vulnerable. "

At this point, he picked up the tea cup and took a sip, "Fortunately, after five years of fighting, we finally won. How do you think this battle went?"

The monk twisted the beads one by one.

Baoshu was attracted by his Buddhist beads, crawled over and grabbed them.

When the monk saw the little guy's eyes glowing green, he let go of his hand and said with a gentle look on his face: "The little donor likes it so much. It seems that he is destined to be my Buddha. I will give this beads to the little donor."

Baoshu's eyes widened: "Wow!"

Lu Yuan: "It can't be eaten."

Baoshu shook her head and immediately stopped.

On the other side, Meng Qianqian said that she was frightened in the shop and needed to stay in bed for a while, but she did not go to greet the old lady.

The old lady was furious.

Meng Qianqian didn't care whether she was angry or not, she was just minding her own business in the room.

She had planned to close down the store that day, but she never thought of the Beiliang secret agent. Because the matter was so important, the people in Jingzhao Mansion did not dare to take it lightly. In the past few days, there had been official inspections and covert visits.

Meng Qianqian didn't want to reveal that she was the new owner for the time being, so she decided to wait until the limelight had passed before closing the shop.

Aunt Li asked: "Miss, haven't you already read this account?"

Meng Qianqian wrote down the accounts: "I just took a rough look at it before, but now I want to write down which ones we spent ourselves and which ones were subsidized."

Seeing that Aunt Li was about to speak but hesitated, Meng Qianqian asked: "Auntie, what's wrong?"

Grandma Li asked distressedly: "Miss, why don't you explain to me that it was not you who went to see me that day, but me who asked someone to call you over?"

Meng Qianqian said calmly: "Even if I explain it, he won't believe it."

When she came back from the Governor's Mansion, Lu Xingzhou immediately called her to the study and asked her about the ins and outs of her abduction.

She spoke in detail.

Lu Xingzhou guessed that this incident would damage Lu Lingxiao's reputation, so he told her that he would let Lu Lingxiao move to Haitang Courtyard and stop doting on that woman.

Aunt Li sighed: "Why can't I see the beauty of my young lady?"

Meng Qianqian continued to take notes: "It doesn't matter whether he can see or not." "Miss!"

Banxia carried the food box inside, closed the door, walked forward with a smile, and took out the breakfast in the food box.

A bowl of barley porridge, a plate of side dishes, two bamboo shoot meat buns, and a plate of crystal bacon.

The food in the public school is very poor recently, only porridge and side dishes, and the steamed buns and bacon are cooked by Banxia herself in the small kitchen.

Aunt Li came over with hot water and a handkerchief.

Meng Qianqian washed her hands and asked, "Has the charcoal been sent to mother?"

Ban Xia smiled and said: "I sent it, and the lady guessed it right. They asked where the charcoal came from, and the servant followed the lady's instructions and said it was given by the old lady!"

Since Meng Qianqian was "squeezed dry", the old lady has become a householder.

She dug and searched, and found out that not only the food had become worse, but the charcoal was also gone, and the silver charcoal had turned into black charcoal, which made her smoke badly.

Meng Qianqian bought charcoal herself and mixed it with the charcoal gift given to the old lady by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The old lady always treated Mother Lu and Meng Qianqian well, so she gave the charcoal to them, and no one suspected it.

Meng Qianqian saw her smiling so hard that she couldn't see her teeth, and asked, "You are smiling so happily. Is there any happy event?"

Banxia smiled mysteriously: "Hehe, miss, you didn't go out of the yard today, maybe you don't know that a goddess has come to our house, right?"

Meng Qianqian paused as she drank the porridge: "Hmm, is there such a thing?"

Grandma Li wondered: "Why do you invite the goddess? Who invited her?"

Banxia put her hands on her hips and said: "Old man! The old lady said that our house is not peaceful today, and something dirty must have been involved, so she asked someone to invite the fairy to perform the ritual. When the fairy came, she pointed at our Begonia. The hospital, they say that Haitang Courtyard is shrouded in darkness and the dirty things are here!”

Meng Qianqian smiled lightly: "She wants to avenge her grandson's beating in Haitang Courtyard."

Grandma Li asked worriedly: "What happened next?"

Ban Xia said vividly: "Later, the fairy brought a large pot of dog blood and wanted to come to our yard to drive away evil spirits. Unexpectedly, before she could take two steps, the old lady snatched the dog blood away and put the whole pot on the old lady's head. superior!"

"puff-"

Even Grandma Li, who was as steady as she was, couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

Meng Qianqian also felt very relieved after listening to it.

Ban Xia said: "It's so cold, I guess it will take her a whole day to wash it off!"

Meng Qianqian nodded.

That picture makes me feel happy just thinking about it.

When my uncle brought a woman home, Nanny Li felt as if there was a big stone in her heart.

In the past few days, the depression has really dissipated a lot.

Aunt Li went to add a piece of charcoal: "The new year is approaching. In previous years, the lady gave generously to the money. The senior stewards each received ten taels, and the minor stewards in each courtyard received five taels. Even the rough servants who worked as sweepers also had hundreds of taels. For a coin, who doesn’t want to say something about how well the lady is doing in charge? I wonder how the old lady will live this year when she takes charge of the house herself?”

Ban Xia hummed: "I see she can't even get out a single copper!"

Meng Qianqian didn't care how the Lu family was doing this year. She only cared about when Lu Lingxiao would pay her back.

But he said that the Lu family and his son had been waiting in the Dudu Mansion all day, their legs were numb, and they finally waited until Lu Yuan returned home.

Lu Xingzhou hurriedly saluted and truthfully stated his intention.

Lu Yuan curled his lips: "Master Lu, this is the crime of deceiving the emperor, and you will be beheaded."

Lu Xingzhou's expression changed.

Lu Lingxiao took a step forward and said seriously: "This matter was done by me alone and has nothing to do with my father!"

Lu Yuan's smile deepened: "General Lu is so brave, and I appreciate it very much. Come on, arrest General Lu!"

Woohoo, Kavin was so stuck that he finally caught up.
