On the eve before the son-raising banquet, Lu Hou was staying at Mrs. Jihou's place.

Before going to bed, the two were very tender. Although Mrs. Jihou was inconvenient, she did not make Lu Hou feel wronged. On the contrary, she served him very comfortably and had a good night's sleep.

However, in the middle of the night, Lu Hou was awakened by Mrs. Jihou's screams.

It seemed that she had some frightening dream. Mrs. Ji Hou's face was extremely pale, and she plunged into Lu Hou's arms, her body trembling and weeping non-stop.

It was a blessing to have a beautiful woman in his arms, but the delicate appearance of pear blossoms and rain under the lamp really made him feel pity.However, Mrs. Jihou still hesitated to talk about the dream under his various teasing, which made Lu Hou suspicious.

But Mrs. Jihou kept her mouth shut, and Lu Hou tried all her best to force her to ask questions, so she had to continue to sleep with doubts.

However, after falling asleep for an hour, Mrs. Ji Hou was awakened again, and even started to have a fever because of being too frightened.

It’s a big taboo during pregnancy, but it’s already midnight, it’s not suitable to alarm the Tai Hospital, and the doctors who are often used in the government can’t see why. They only say that it’s the high fever during pregnancy caused by too much mental stress, and they dare not even prescribe medicine. Just let the little maids wipe Mrs. Jihou's limbs with some warm water mixed with wine.

The mellow aroma of the wine added a touch of warmth to the room, but it couldn't dispel the horrifying gloom in Mrs. Yin Jihou's raving ravings.

"Don't, don't... Go away, puppet, let my child go!" The weak voice was trembling with extreme fear, and Mrs. Jihou's slender fingers tightly grasped the quilt with one foot. , It was also bluish and white, and the bones were exposed, which was very frightening.And the few words revealed in her intermittent words also made Lu Hou doubtful.

"Puppet" and "children", although these keywords are very vague, they are enough to remind Lu Hou of something bad - witchcraft.

The witchcraft case in the 18th year of the first emperor was a commotion caused by a puppet.

At that time, the harem was vying for favor and seizing the throne, and the concubines in the palace were full of schemes, and witchcraft, which was rumored to be able to easily kill people, was also introduced into the palace wantonly.Even the first emperor himself suffered from it.

Therefore, after the situation broke out, all those involved in the case, ranging from implicating the nine clans in the slightest to the three sects in the serious case, even specially formulated a separate law to list witchcraft as the original sin.

The theory of ghosts and gods is the easiest to cholera.

As time passed, the high fever on Mrs. Ji Hou's body became more and more serious, and even inexplicably produced a sign of miscarriage.

Several hours had passed, and when the dawn finally dawned, the attendants who went to invite the imperial physician had already left the house, and the doctor in the mansion had exhausted all their strengths, but there was no improvement.

Mrs. Jihou's sleep talk turned into moans of unbearable pain, and the quilt on her lower body was also stained with blood.

"Master Hou, when will the imperial physician come? I'm afraid it's not good for Ma'am." The doctor in the mansion said to Lu Hou in a deliberate tone.

Lu Hou was also anxious, but there was nothing he could do.

"Go! Find someone to go out and have a look, but it's only a cup of tea away, why hasn't the imperial doctor come yet?" Then pointing to the servant behind him, he ordered people to search quickly. Lu Hou drank the herbal tea in the bowl and walked around on the spot. step, very anxious.

That was the son he had been looking forward to through so much hard work. Now that his life was in danger, how could he not be worried?

At this moment, a little servant girl ran in from outside in a panic and whispered something in Lu Hou's ear.

"What?" Lu Hou's face changed, and he immediately called the doctor to go out together, but he didn't notice that Mrs. Jihou, who was lying unconscious on the bed, quietly evoked a smile that was inevitable .

She quietly made a gesture with her fingers by her side, and a black shadow flashed by outside the window.

The series of rounds set against Li Xi has already begun, and the next step is the best time to close the net.

Mrs. Jihou was very excited, as if she planned the elder sister to die early and her husband died unexpectedly, the more critical the moment, the more excited she was.

Glory and status are all paved with blood and piled up with bones.And she is destined to enjoy all the wealth and glory.

Lu Yunxi, your biological mother is already standing on Huangquan Road, so don't let me wait too long, too long.

Hearing the turmoil outside, Mrs. Jihou felt extremely proud.

---------------------

In the front hall of Huanlang Courtyard, the little maid who had just gone to talk to Lu Hou was holding a scroll and bowed her head to plead guilty.

"It's all the servant's fault. Before the second master asked me to send the painting for no reason, the servant thought he was concerned about his wife, so he sent it. Later, he felt that something was wrong, but it didn't help. Though the servant was in front The courtyard is in charge of cleaning, but the second master is cautious and does not let us people get close. Why did he suddenly ask me to run errands? It was not until today that I accidentally heard a chat with the two sisters who followed the second master to Beijing. There is no problem, but there is something else in this hollow scroll, and it contains..." Taking a deep breath, the servant girl glanced at Lu Hou, summoned up her courage and continued, "There is actually something in it that can make women slippery." Fetal things!"

The doctor also took a deep breath and took the scroll, but just after he took it, he could smell the strange fragrance on it.

The doctor's sensitivity allowed him to distinguish the medicine inside instantly, and his face changed accordingly.

At this moment, Lu Hou's face was extremely dark. He took the scroll and dropped it hard to the ground.The scroll fell on the white jade brick, and it was instantly torn apart, and the medicine hidden inside was also scattered all over the floor.

"Okay, very good, this unfilial son who killed his mother and brother!" Lu Hou's chest heaved violently, and the servant's return made him even more angry.

"Master Hou, we found this in Madam's yard!"

Lu Hou looked up, and in the wooden box held by the boy was an object that could destroy the whole family of Lu's family. It was the puppet of witchcraft.

In silence, the atmosphere in the front hall of Huanlang Courtyard quickly became condensed.

Everyone at the scene lowered their heads and knelt on the ground, eyes full of horror, wishing that they would disappear immediately, lest they know too much and lost their lives in vain.

As for Lu Hou, who kept pacing in the hall, his face flushed red, his chest heaved and heaved, and even his eyes were bloodshot with anger.

The surrounding air quickly became silent, and there was even a trace of lifelessness, only the sound of Lu Hou's footsteps tapping, as if the footsteps of the god of death came.

The timid maid couldn't help crying softly, and even Lu Hou's confidant servant had cold sweat on his forehead.

Witch Gu, this is a serious crime of losing the head and killing the whole family. There is only one life. How can anyone not be afraid?But as a slave, life or death is just a word between the lips of the master.

"Master Hou, the imperial doctor is here!" The young man who went to the imperial hospital to invite the imperial doctor finally came back, but he was frightened by the terrifying atmosphere in the room.Before he could finish the rest of the sentence, the servant girl's exclamation came from the back room, followed by heart-piercing crying.

Mrs. Jihou's close maid ran out from the inside with bloody hands, cried and knelt down and replied: "Madam, Madam has had a miscarriage..."

The sudden news made Lu Hou's eyes widen, and then he didn't come up in one breath, and passed out directly in the hall...

----------------

On the other side of the Hanzhang Pavilion, Li Xi's personal servants with two sons also received news that Lu Hou was deceived by Mrs. Jihou's mother and son, and wanted to kill Li Xi secretly.

Shuang'er's attendant was just a joke at first, but when the news came that Mrs. Jihou had a miscarriage, Hanzhang Pavilion was surrounded by guards sent by Lu Hou, and he also panicked.

After inquiring carefully, after knowing the exact reason, he couldn't help but bribe the guards, quietly left the Hou's Mansion and walked towards the Prince Regent's Mansion, intending to report to Li Xi in advance.

As everyone knows, his every move has long been under the surveillance of others, and after he left, a piece of white cloth feet and a bag of sharp guns were unknowingly hidden in the suitcase of Li Xi's room. embroidery needles...
