Shocked! After planting, a sickly and charming first assistant will grow up.

"Stop!" Lu Xiao shouted, his voice trembling with anger, "What are you doing?"

He is a new member of the court, and he has many political enemies and even spies from other countries in his house...

Let people know that her wife was beating and whipping the maids in the mansion in broad daylight. Who knows how she will be treated. Don't be an official!

He strode forward and snatched the whip from Jiang Keyuan's hand, his face turning slightly blue.

The latter blinked and tears fell. His wife rarely showed such a fragile side, and Lu Xiao's heart softened.

Things have been happening one after another recently, and he really ignored her feelings a little too much. He just wanted to grab someone to comfort her...

Jiang Keyuan shed tears and roared hysterically: "Are you standing up for her? Say...do you really have a crush on this bitch?"

"Lu Xiao, you are shameless!"

The constant questioning and scolding completely stunned Lu Xiao. Who was he standing up for and why was he so shameless?

Jiang Keyuan picked up the maid's head, forced her to reveal her face, and asked heartbreakingly: "Are you attracted to her? Do you want her to carry on your family line?"

"Lu Xiao! There's no way to tell you! I'll cut her alive right now in front of you."

After saying this, a short knife slipped out of his sleeve and cut straight towards the maid's delicate face...

The latter closed his eyes with determination. If he had known... If he had known that the old lady could not make the decision, if she had known that it would attract such hysterical revenge from the madam, she would never have had such inappropriate thoughts last night.

Tears of regret flowed...

But the expected pain from Ling Chi did not come. The tall and majestic Marquis stepped in front of her and grabbed the knife that Madam was attacking him with his bare hands...

The palms of my hands were dripping with blood.

The back was generous and full of security. The maid took one last look and completely fainted.

Jiang Keyuan saw the blood dripping from her husband's palm, threw the knife and laughed miserably, "You really fell in love with her, and you actually blocked the knife for her——"

"Who am I? Who am I if you block the knife for her?"

Jiang Keyuan was heartbroken, holding her hair with both hands and sliding down a little...

Lu Xiao frowned. He blocked the knife just to prevent the rumor that "Mrs. Ping Xihou tortured and killed the maid" from spreading. He took a closer look at the unconscious maid's face... Well, I'm sure I have no impression!

At some point, he realized something was wrong with his wife, so he half-carried her into the house, not forgetting to cast a cold look back at the servants in the courtyard before leaving.

"If even one word of what happened today is leaked, don't blame me for not waiting for it."

After closing the door, Jiang Keyuan's eyes were still unfocused, and her face was sometimes twisted and ferocious, sometimes restless, making Lu Xiao angry and distressed.

He knelt down and held her face, "What's wrong with you? Did I ever say that I wanted to find another woman?"

Jiang Keyuan's eyes lit up and she grabbed Lu Xiao's sleeve: "Really not looking for it?" Seeing the latter nodding, her tone changed.

"Then you must return home from next court and are not allowed to wander outside."

Lu Xiao nodded.

Jiang Keyuan then made a request, "Swear not to find another woman."

Lu Xiao continued to nod.

"Sold all the maids in the house!"

Finally... Lu Xiao couldn't bear it anymore, "Are you crazy?"

Sold all the maids in the mansion? He had been seriously ill for twenty years and could not make such a request. His patience finally ran out and his voice was filled with anger:

"Jiang Keyuan...you should stop."

Jiang Keyuan ignored Lu Xiao's face and said, "The rabbit won't eat the grass beside its nest. You stopped it time and time again. How dare you say that you don't have other thoughts?"

"Tell me, do you like red flowers or green willows? Do you want to live or die?"

Lu Xiao couldn't dodge, leaving five scratches on his face.

In the end... it ended with Lu Xiao backing down and agreeing to sell the maid in the mansion.

He didn't do it all for his wife, but he took the opportunity to remove some of the spies planted by other forces.

Jiang Keyuan finally broke her tears and turned into a smile, forcing Lu Xiao to make many vows, such as: Those who betray their heart will swallow a thousand needles...

Finally, after Lu Xiao's patience ran out, Jiang Keyuan let him go.

After waiting for others to go to bed, Lu Xiao left the mansion and relaxed alone on the street. He used to dream of the high-end mansion and now he just wanted to escape.

He paused slightly when he reached the famous 'Wushuang Pavilion' in the capital. It sold gold and silver jewelry, silk and satin that women loved.

Now was not the time to break up with the Prime Minister's Mansion. He thought he would buy a gift and go back to coax his wife later.

Unexpectedly, he met an unexpected person after entering the door, "Yun... Yun Jin?"

Lu Xiao's complex eyes looked at the eldest son in front of him, who had handsome features and elegant eyes, as elegant as mist and starlight. It took him a long time to call out the name deep in his memory.

After not seeing each other for a year, the eldest son took off his coarse linen clothes and lost his youthfulness. When he saw himself, he smiled elegantly and gently, "Ping Xihou."

There was no hatred or hostility in his eyes as he expected. His eyes and tone seemed to be greeting a stranger whom he met by chance.

It was quite unexpected to meet Lu Xiao and Lu Yunjin here. He concealed the bloodthirsty anger that suddenly burst into his eyes, raised a slight arc on his lips, and nodded lightly as he was about to pass by...

Luo Xi was still waiting for him in the inner room. There was a skilled carver from Wushuang Pavilion. They came to visit today and wanted to make some jade materials into finished products.

He didn't expect to meet Lu Xiao, nor was he surprised. That home must have started to make him feel suffocated. Don't worry, the days are still long.

"You...what did you call me?" Lu Xiao was heartbroken when his eldest son called him Lord Marquis, and couldn't help but hold Lu Yunjin's hand.

This son has a cold temperament. When I saw him in the past, there was always light in his eyes. This kind of polite alienation towards strangers made him very uncomfortable.

"Have you forgotten, Lord Marquis?" Lu Yunjin raised his eyelids and moved his arms. Lu Xiao uncontrollably let go of him and stepped back.

"You ordered me to be removed from the family tree. If you don't call me Marquis, why would you call me a scumbag?"

He didn't like to argue with people before, especially when dealing with dying people. After spending time with Luo Xi for a long time, his words became venomous.

Lu Xiao was shaken back three steps by the inner energy released by Lu Yunjin. He was shocked, "Isn't it that I won't let you practice martial arts? You... what level are you... in?"

At this moment, the door of the VIP box opened, revealing a face that he had only seen in portraits. The young man spoke in a harsh tone, with naked hostility rushing towards him.

"Oh~ Isn't this Mr. Lu who killed his wife and abandoned his son and seduced his wife for the sake of glory and wealth?"

"Finally, I met a real person. I'm so happy to meet you!"

Luo Xi looked at Lu Xiao up and down with an angry look, and curled her lips, "Sure enough, he deserves his reputation. He smells like scum."

"You... you... are you Luo Xi who taught my son bad things?" Lu Xiao's face turned purple with sarcasm when Luo Xi slapped him in the face.

There was a kind of hostility in his eyes, "Ignorant child, can you arrange this for me?"

It was this brat who was behind the best, making himself a laughing stock in the capital, which is unforgivable.

Luo Xi was leaning lazily on the edge of the counter. Hearing this, he raised his delicate eyebrows and asked, "Why don't you, sir, rise to the height of ninety thousand miles when the wind blows?"

"Pfft!" The young lady next to her who was pretending to choose jewelry but was actually listening to the gossip laughed out loud. This was a mockery of Ping Xihou, why can't he go to heaven if he is so awesome?

This little mouth is indeed as poisonous as the legend says...
