"Madam, you are the most merciful. I was the one who got the medicine and boiled it for you. Please let me die. I will work like a slave to repay you in my next life!" Alan kowtowed hard. Her face was already swollen, and after two more kowtows, it was blue and purple, and she looked unrecognizable!

But Mrs. Lu, who was usually very talkative, still didn't even look at her, and only said in a low voice:

"You have committed sins that are worthy of death a thousand times over. But if everyone could die so easily, then what would this evil family have to fear? If you die without confessing, I will have people strip you of your clothes, throw you on the martial arts training ground, release the Ao dogs to tear you apart, and let everyone come to watch. You will die with no innocence, buried in the dogs' stomachs, and your body will be torn to pieces!"

Alan paused, she looked up in disbelief, her eyes, swollen as walnuts, were filled with panic and shock!

Lu Qirui was ruthless, but Mrs. Lu was a well-known soft-hearted person in Xishu.

She has a good family background, was raised in luxury, and is very intelligent. She has cultivated the family's inner strength to the same level as men.

Back then, she was a good woman that hundreds of families sought marriage with. To this day, Mrs. Lu’s good name is still spread throughout the world. People say that whoever is lucky enough to marry her is truly blessed with great luck!

Mrs. Lu was kind-hearted. Even though she was the center of attention, she remained simple. After marrying Lu Qirui, she seldom went out, and stayed at home to take care of her husband and children.

Over the past few decades, no one in the mansion has failed to praise this mistress for her kindness!

Even if a servant made a mistake, he would just be taught a lesson by the housekeeper. If he was really arrogant, he would just be sold off. No one would ever beat or scold him!

Alan didn't understand why Mrs. Lu was still so cruel to him even though he was in this state.

"If you confess, I will pray for a good death for you, and your family will take care of you. Think about it carefully."

After saying that, Mrs. Lu just hugged Lu Mingchi and didn't say another word.

"Yes...it was the prescription he wrote. I just followed the prescription..." Alan struggled for a long time, then pointed at the person next to him.

The man being pointed at trembled all over, but without hesitation, he immediately shouted:

"I am just a doctor. I will do whatever the master tells me to do! The Lu family is the tyrant of Western Shu. How can I resist them alone?"

"Nonsense!" Lu Qirui said angrily, "You said you were a great doctor, and I accepted you as my retainer and asked you to treat my wife. But who would have thought that you would secretly murder her and put the blame on me? You are such a conscienceless bastard!"

"Master, just confess. When I was brought here, I saw Hei Ada next to you with blood gushing out of his mouth and nose. He was thrown under the corridor. None of us can escape!"

After the man finished speaking, he knelt down in front of Ning Weizhou and said, "General, I am just a doctor. I don't have any special skills. But one day, a pie fell from the sky. The head of the Lu family asked someone to take me back to the mansion and said that as long as I followed the instructions, I would be given a lot of money. I was blinded by greed and copied the prescriptions given by the head of the Lu family every time. But I didn't know that the head of the Lu family was so cruel that he actually used this prescription on his own wife. It is simply outrageous. The general should punish him! I am innocent!"

Lu Qirui was so angry that he was shaking. He had seen many shameless people, but the man in front of him opened his eyes again!

"You...are talking nonsense..."

Lu Qirui puffed up his cheeks for a long time, but could only utter this one curse!

It's not that he was at a loss for words, he was just panicking. Hei Ada was his bodyguard leader, and his skills were ranked among the top ten in the martial arts world. But from what the doctor said, he had been killed!

And he was killed in his own house!

"General, what crime did the Lu family commit that they want to confiscate their property and exterminate their entire clan?"

At this time, Lu Qirui calmed down and looked directly at Ning Weizhou:

"If there is no conclusive evidence, I will file a complaint in Beijing even if I die!"

"Master Lu, don't be angry. The Lu family is doing well now. It's just that when we went to lead people, someone insisted on obstructing official business. We two brothers are rough men, and we have military orders, so we can only kill him. You can scold us for this, but if you want to complain, you'd better save your energy. We are also military officers with ranks. If the emperor knew that we killed a gangster with a murder case, he would reward us!"

Lou Er turned the handle of the knife and laughed!

Although Lu Qirui's fists creaked from being clenched, he still held back his anger!

What Lou Er said was right. Ning Weizhou and his men all had official ranks, and not low ones. There were few retainers of the Lu family who had not killed people. If you really want to talk about it, even if they chopped off their heads eight or ten times, it would not be enough!

This matter still needs long-term consideration. The money he spent on the military and political affairs of Western Shu in the past must be put to good use now!

"Now that we have both witnesses and evidence, does Mr. Lu have anything else to say?" Ning Weizhou tapped on the table with his fingers, making a loud noise, and each tap seemed to hit Lu Qirui's heart!

"I have been wronged. I and my wife have a deep love for each other. Everyone in Xishu knows this..."

"Lu Qirui, stop acting! These people and the confession are enough to send you to prison!" Mrs. Lu interrupted Lu Qirui.

"This is the Tang Mansion. I demand that this case be adjudicated in court!"

"Okay, take him away!"

Seeing that Ning Weizhou actually agreed, Lu Qirui was secretly delighted. No matter what, when he meets the government officials, no matter who is in power, he has to give him 70% face!

Mrs. Lu was horrified: "No, he is colluding with the government, which is tantamount to letting a tiger go back to the mountain!"

Lu Qirui looked at Madam Lu, his eyes full of grief and sorrow:

"Madam, you and I have been married for decades. We have two sons and supported each other through the pain of losing them. Now you are accusing me like this. I wonder what you are up to? Let's go to court and have a good argument!"

Lou Er came over, holding a chain as thick as a little finger:

"Master Lu, you are a martial arts master, and we may not be your match. In order to reassure the brothers below, you still have to pretend!"

Lu Qirui glanced at the thickness of the chain, and a look of disdain flashed in his eyes: “Okay, let’s follow the rules!”

Lou Er didn't say anything more. He put the chain around Lu Qirui's neck and then tied it around Lu Qirui's hands.

"Okay, Master Lu, please come with us!" Lou Er's demeanor improved at this time. He stepped aside and stretched out his hand to invite him forward.

"Mrs. Lu, you are the plaintiff, so you should go with us!" After Lu Qirui stepped out of the door, Lou Er said to Mrs. Lu who was hugging Lu Mingchi on the ground.

Mrs. Lu was worried about her son, but she didn't want Lu Qirui to get away easily. After hesitating for a long time, she could only look at Gu Feiwan:

"Madam, you saved my life today, I am grateful. My son did something wrong, I hope you can be magnanimous and forgive him this time!"
