Surprise! The villain is my brother, stay calm!
Chapter 149 What? My brother redeemed the woman?
"I didn't know it at first. It was your eldest sister who said it was our grandfather's order, and she also gave us a large sum of money."
But now he already knew that Yongzhou was the escape route arranged by his grandfather for the Lu family's sons.
Xihua was taught martial arts by his uncle, and he also followed his uncle to fight in wars. He is even familiar with the art of war. Yongliang is his grandfather's territory, so it is safer to train troops in Yongzhou.
Lu Zhanxing was shocked. Was it arranged by his grandfather?
She was immersed in the plot of the book, trying hard to recall the details. Didn't the book say that these 30,000 elite soldiers were bought by the eldest sister for training because she was bored?
Now, it’s because of grandfather?
Oh my god, my head itches. Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashes through my mind. Wait, Yongzhou... borders Qi...
Grandfather asked for soldiers to be trained...
She looked at her brother-in-law suspiciously: "So, Yongzhou is the retreat that Grandfather left for the Lu family?"
These 30,000 elite soldiers were originally intended to help the Lu family escape.
Gu Xuyao raised his eyebrows: "Grandfather didn't say it explicitly, but I think he did. I thought he told you."
Lu Zhanxing widened his eyes in disbelief, and when he thought of the ending of the book, he couldn't help but sigh.
If the story had continued as in the book, my grandfather would have been forced to death, my uncle would have died in battle, my aunt would have died of illness, my father would have been falsely accused of abusing his power for personal gain, my mother would have been angry to death by her family, my eldest sister would have been shot to death by arrows, my second sister would have been humiliated to save me and would have committed suicide, my second brother-in-law would have committed suicide for love, my third sister would have died together with Feng Chengyu, and my death would have been even more miserable...
Even if they had a way out, how could they be willing to just leave like this...
Thinking about how the eldest brother-in-law went crazy because of the death of the eldest sister and protected the Lu family bloodline until his death, it can be said that the eldest brother-in-law is worthy of the eldest sister and the Lu family.
The entire Lu family was dead, leaving only my brother... How could my brother not be in pain... not crazy...
Such an ending made Lu Zhanxing feel suddenly heartbroken. Thinking of how his brother in the book died miserably, how did he cheer for the male and female protagonists to defeat the villain at that time?
Gu Xuyao felt the endless grief coming from Lu Zhanxing and frowned, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Zhanxing came back to his senses, broke away from the known plot, took a deep breath, and calmed his sad mood. Now that he was here, the ending had been changed, and his family would be fine.
"Brother-in-law, how are your arrangements going in Yuzhou?"
Gu Xuyao shook his head and said in a heavy tone: "After all, this is a city close to the capital. The forces of all parties are complicated and cannot be controlled in a short time."
Hearing this, Lu Zhanxing expressed her understanding. She knew very well that this place was different from Yongzhou and Yanzhou, and it was not easy to fully control it.
However, she knew in her heart that if her brother decided to attack the capital, it would be easy for her brother-in-law to open the city gates for him.
After they chatted for a while, the eldest sister sent someone to invite them to dinner in the flower hall.
When he saw his second sister and her husband, Lu Zhanxing greeted them politely: "Second sister, second brother-in-law."
Lu Xihan smiled gently: "Brother, am I doing well in Beijing? How is grandpa's health?"
Although she was in Yuzhou, she would occasionally return to the capital to visit her grandfather. However, her grandfather had been sleeping for too long, and she knew in her heart that he would not last much longer.
Thinking of the earth-shattering news her husband had told her, she felt very uneasy.
Is it really a good idea to leave A-di and his wife and grandfather in the capital?
What if something happens and my brother can't escape?
Although Lu Zhanyan asked them not to tell the women in the family, fearing that they could not keep it secret, Zhou Li was restless all day after returning and was very obedient to Lu Xihan. Lu Xihan let everything out as soon as she got angry.
The eldest sister was devoted to wielding swords and sticks, and acted straightforwardly. She just trained when asked to do so, without giving it much thought. She thought that her eldest brother-in-law wanted to find something for her to do.
But after I knew the plans of my grandfather and others, I was always worried. I was always afraid that my brother would not be able to leave the capital, and if he was taken hostage, would they still rebel?
Lu Zhanxing said in a relaxed tone: "Everything is fine. Grandfather is still the same, and I eat and drink as I please, and play as I please. I don't know how happy I am without my parents nagging me."
"Since we are here, let's spend a few more days in Yuzhou."
Lu Xihan felt that only by keeping her brother under her nose could she feel at ease, but since her grandfather needed someone to take care of him in the house, she could only think about it.
Zhou Li also responded immediately: "Yes, Yuzhou is as prosperous as the capital. You can have fun however you want. Your brother-in-law will cover all your expenses."
Hearing this, Lu Zhanxing chuckled and said, "Then thank you, second brother-in-law!"
Fortunately, my second brother-in-law didn’t know that Yufeng Trading Company was his own private property, otherwise he would definitely not have said that.
After lunch, the eldest brother-in-law went to take care of the affairs of the government office, and the second brother-in-law went to make money. Before leaving, they stuffed nearly two thousand taels into Lu Zhanxing's pocket and let her spend it as she pleased.
Lu Zhanxing said that he could get along with his second brother-in-law.
So, she really took Bai Jing around to eat, drink and have fun.
She often went to brothels, pleasure boats, teahouses, theaters and other places, and she was always generous in her spending, leaving a deep impression on people.
This time she took two thousand taels with her, but the money ran out quickly, so she asked her second brother-in-law for another three thousand taels. In just three days, she had redeemed eight women.
Although those who were redeemed were not the top girls, their status and treatment were almost the same as those of the top girls.
Due to the frequent occurrence of redemption cases, this generous, handsome and elegant nobleman quickly became famous in these places.
Many women in brothels and pleasure boats were looking forward to the nobleman's return and secretly praying for a chance to redeem themselves.
However, when this news reached the ears of sisters Lu Xihua and Lu Xihan, they felt very helpless.
It would have been fine if he had just spent five thousand taels, but all of that money was used to visit brothels and other places of entertainment.
The two sisters were very worried and sent someone to look for her. When she returned home, the two sisters saw her with her head down and a well-behaved look, and they were very helpless and dissatisfied.
"Look at you. It was fine before you got married, but now that you're married, why are you still so unfaithful? If your sister-in-law finds out, she'll be so sad!"
Lu Xihua strongly disapproved of her brother's behavior.
Are you feeling suffocated in Beijing, so you come to Yuzhou to let yourself go?
In just three days, she redeemed eight women. What was she trying to do? To keep a mistress?
Lu Xihan also gently advised: "Brother, you can't do this. If you really want a woman, Second Sister will find you a few gentle and considerate ones to be your concubines, but don't even think about bringing a woman from a brothel back to the Anguo Mansion. If my parents knew about it, they would definitely be angry."
A Tongfang is only half a level higher than a maid, but she is actually also a maid who serves people, so the Anguo Mansion has no requirements.
But in the entire Anguo Mansion, only Adi is a dandy and not decent at all. But they only have this one brother, what else can they do? They can only try their best to help Adi.
"That's right. My parents are old, so don't mess around. I happen to have some new girls. I'll pick two for you. You can send the girls you redeem to me to learn martial arts. At least they can be of some use."
Lu Xihua firmly disagreed with her brother bringing women from these places back home.
"Eldest sister, second sister, you misunderstood. I redeemed them for other purposes. I felt that I didn't have enough money to spend, so I wanted to open a shop in the capital and let these girls who are good at speaking help me run the shop. What are you thinking?"
Lu Xihua and Lu Xihan looked at each other and both felt that their brother was lying. There were many women who were good at speaking, so how could he go to places like brothels to buy women? The brother must be reluctant to part with these women, so he said that on purpose.
"No, you can't take these women to the capital. If you don't have money, ask your second sister for it. Just take care of yourself. You don't have to work hard to earn money." Lu Xihua still refused.
"Sister, it's really not what you think..."
