"Second brother, cough cough..."
Lu Changji wanted to speak out to stop Lu Changming's reckless behavior, but when he got excited, he started coughing non-stop.
He was anxious and weak, his face flushed, and he realized that he was powerless and a burden. Despair gradually gathered in his eyes.
He coughed violently with despair in his heart. Suddenly, the white handkerchief was stained with blood. There was a seductive bloody red at the corner of his mouth. The situation was urgent.
Su Sijin was quick-witted and pulled the silver needle out of his hand and inserted it into his head, which prevented Lu Changming, who was almost suffocating, from dying of suffocation.
Lu Changming was already fighting with the imperial guards, but one person could not defeat a group attack. He curled up on the ground with his head in his hands, allowing the sticks to hit him.
Zheng Jie tried frantically to squeeze in and save Lu Changming, but was blown away in the chaos.
Zheng Jie still didn't give up. As long as there was a gap, she would try her best to crawl in.
Lu Qiuling cried and bit whoever she caught, and the result was predictable: the person was thrown away.
Su Sijin quickly caught the person and placed him in front of Lu Changji.
Over there, Zheng Jie was surrounded by several guards with bad intentions, and all she could hear was Zheng Jie screaming in despair.
"Mother."
Lu Changming saw Zheng Jie being humiliated out of the corner of his eye and shouted in despair.
Perhaps anger stimulated his potential, Lu Changming bravely broke free from the shackles of the imperial guards, and came in front of Zheng Jie with his fists and feet flying wildly.
He protected her behind him. At this time, all his strength was exhausted, but he protected Zheng Jie tightly and would not let anyone bully her.
The Lu family watched the fire from the other side of the river, like spectators leisurely watching the eldest branch of the Lu family being humiliated and bullied.
Su Sijin saw amusement and gloating in their eyes.
Su Sijin narrowed her eyes dangerously and started playing a game of cat and mouse with the guards.
Faced with the sudden attack, the Imperial Guards gave up besieging Lu Changming and turned to attack Su Sijin.
While accepting the challenge, Su Sijin went to the second and third branches of the Lu family.
"Ah! Su Sijin, don't come over." Mrs. Lu San said while trying to escape to a deserted place.
But how could Su Sijin let them get what they wanted? Not only did she not help, she even gloated over their misfortune. With such a dark heart, how could she not feel pain?
Su Sijin gave a sly smile, teasing the guards to flee and hide around the Lu family, successfully allowing the sticks to hit the Lu family.
But after a while, the scene became chaotic.
“Ouch!”
"Ouch, it hurts so much, Su Sijin, stand still and don't move. Don't run away." Master Lu roared in pain with gritted teeth.
Naturally, his response was another crazy greeting from the stick.
Su Sijin's light body moved around them like an elf.
Humph, let’s watch the show. Now they have become the protagonists.
The guards over there were attracted by Su Sijin. Zheng Jie suppressed her fear and helped the badly injured Lu Changming to Lu Changgong.
She and Lu Qiuling helped Lu Changji to Lu Changgong's side. The eldest son was unconscious, the second son was seriously injured, and the youngest son was dying. The tragic situation of the eldest son of the Lu family made Zheng Jie sad.
There was a constant fight going on in the second branch of the Lu family, and of course only the Lu family members were beaten.
Especially the men, they beat us so hard.
Su Sijin looked at the chaos in front of her with a smile. Having achieved her goal, she quickly withdrew.
"Stop." The commander roared, stopping the chaotic scene.
"The Lu family refused to cooperate and caused trouble. They will be thrown into prison. I will report to the emperor and then make a decision." After the commander said this, he stared at them with poisonous eyes.
It was a pity for Su Sijin. Compared to the beating Lu Changming suffered, the second and third branches of the Lu family were much less severely beaten.
Su Sijin passed by the commander, stopped, and said with a troublesome smile: "Today, Commander, you have shown off your power in the palace enough!"
"What do you want to say?" the commander threatened.
"I said, you won't see tomorrow's sun. If it were me, I would run away. At least there's still a glimmer of hope, right?"
Su Sijin said this with a smile and left in a carefree manner, without any frustration of being convicted.
The commander just thought Su Sijin was a lunatic, talking nonsense and trying to scare him.
How could he not see tomorrow's sunrise?
On the contrary, they may not be able to see tomorrow's sunrise.
…
"Oh, my mother stinks and is so dirty. I want to go out. I want to go back to the palace."
"Ah, there's a mouse."
"A rat crawled onto my hand."
"Grandma, I want to go out. I don't want to stay here."
…
The pampered young men and women of the Lu family let out cries like thunder and lightning.
The air pressure in the other room was very low. Zheng Jie looked at her three sons with heartache, tears flowing out continuously like broken strings.
"Mother... my son only has minor injuries and will be fine in a few days. My eldest and third brothers are not in good condition. It would be great if we could see a doctor."
Lu Changming endured the pain and comforted Zheng Jie, saying, "The Lu family's eldest family is old, weak, and sick! No one can do anything. The situation is very bad."
"Changming, stop talking. I don't know if your bones are broken." After saying that, tears started to fall again.
Su Sijin took Lu Changji's pulse and found that his breathing was steady, but his pulse was weak.
"Changji is fine for now."
Zheng Jie looked at her in surprise, "Really?"
"Really, but you have to avoid extreme emotional ups and downs." Su Sijin swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
Lu Changji was not suffering from a cough, but from poisoning, and it was a chronic poison. Over the years, the poison had been deposited in his body, draining his body.
This caused a cough, but after the poison was eliminated, the cough became much less severe.
