"Go find him again! If he's dead, I'll find his body. If he's alive, I'll find him!"
Lu Zeyi's loud shout came from the study, and Lu Hangan saw Lu Zeyi's attendant hurriedly running out of the study, gathering people to look for someone.
"Dad, what's wrong? What big thing happened?"
Seeing that Lu Zeyi had been in a bad mood these days and was now losing his temper with the servants in the study, Lu Hangan couldn't help but feel worried.
"Nothing, it's just your Uncle Chen Ji. I haven't seen him since your fourth uncle and I rushed back from Shililangdang to split up the family. Dad is a little worried that he might have met with an accident."
When Lu Han heard the name Chen Ji, he looked angry!
This person dared to hit Yao'er's sister, he deserves to die.
"Dad, if he's gone, then just let him go. Then promote a trusted confidant from among your men and train him well."
"You make it sound easy, but cultivating a confidant is not that easy. Your Uncle Chen Ji has been with me since he was a child. This master-servant relationship cannot be severed just by saying so."
"But your worry is a bit abnormal. If he dared to do something to Sister Yao'er, he can do it to you. If you can't find him, then don't look for him. It's been so long, he must have met with an accident."
"Lu Yao must have done something cruel to him!"
"father!"
Lu Han couldn't bear to listen any longer. "He deserves to die for hitting Yao'er. Don't make irresponsible remarks without evidence."
"Okay, go out and let Dad be alone!"
How come this son is not like him at all? Even after the family split up, he is still protecting the eldest son!
Lu Zeyi couldn't sit still, so he arranged for someone to prepare a car and rush to Cui's house.
"Second Master, when will we start?"
Si Chujin glanced at the carriage going away and followed him to see where he was going.
"Master, Master Luze Yilu is here."
Cui Zhehan said gloomily, "Let him in."
"Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Zeyi was really shocked when he saw Cui Zhehan looked pale and listless!
"You are so unfilial and heartless. I have been sick for several days and you only just remembered to come and see me."
"Uncle, it's Zeyi's fault. Would you like to ask Madam Su to come over and take a look at it for you?"
"Hmph! Don't mention her! If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be lying here." Cui Zhehan said gritting his teeth.
"What? Madam Su dared to attack you. Does she think her life is too long?!"
"Her life will be spared for now. Let me ask you, didn't you know about the situation of the third son of the Su family beforehand?"
Lu Zeyi was confused. "The third son of the Su family is just good at studying, a nerd. What's wrong with him?"
Cui Zhehan looked disappointed. "The Su family is very evil, you have no idea! Go to Xishui County and thoroughly investigate the Su family's past!"
"Okay, Zeyi will go south to Xishui County tomorrow. Are you really okay?"
"It's okay, it will be fine after a few days."
After Lu Zeyi left, Yang Bo entered the room.
"Master, the iron ore has been safely delivered to the capital."
Cui Zhehan nodded, "Okay, you go to the Imperial Examination Hall tonight. The results will be announced soon, and we can't make any mistakes."
"Master, don't worry, there won't be any mistakes."
"Also, bring more people on the day the results are announced and inform Luo Xian to make arrangements."
"yes!"
Cui Zhehan didn't know why, but he felt a little uneasy and touched his chin unconsciously.
When Gong came in, she saw this familiar scene. "Master, don't let your imagination run wild. Everything will go smoothly. You've done the same in previous years. The younger generations of our Cui family have all followed your instructions and entered official careers. This time, Xun'er will undoubtedly be at the top of the list, right?"
Gong's words suppressed Cui Zhehan's inner anxiety, "You are right, Xun Ge'er will be at the top of the list."
"Come, drink this bowl of medicine, and try to go with the children to see the results on the day they are announced."
"Okay." Cui Zhehan became energetic and took the medicine and drank it in big gulps.
Lu Zeyi got into the carriage and leaned back on the couch, closing his eyes to rest.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Zeyi realized something was wrong. The carriage was shaking violently!
Lu Zeyi lifted the car curtain and asked, "Why are you leaving the city?"
"Old Li, where are you going? Turn around and go back to the city!"
The only response he got was the sound of the wind, and a moment later a sneer was heard.
"Master Lu Er, how are you?"
"You...why are you here? What do you want to do?"
When Lu Zeyi saw that the person was Si Chujin, his heart sank and an inexplicable panic arose.
"What are you doing?" Si Chujin lowered the door curtain and walked into the carriage. "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. I just came to catch up with you."
"Reminiscing about the past? We don't have much to reminisce about. Turn around and take me back to the city!"
"Heh..." Si Chujin chuckled, "Don't, it's so hard to get out of the city, you have to have fun before going back, there's an old friend waiting to see you!"
Seeing that he couldn't get away for a while, Lu Zeyi asked, "Who is my old friend?"
"You'll know when you get there."
Soon, the carriage stopped at the Si family's courtyard. "Please come in, our old friend is waiting for you."
Lu Zeyi didn't expect to come to the Si family's villa. He stood at the door and didn't dare to go in, worried that he would not be able to get out once he went in. The courtyard was full of Si family members!
Ling Xiao pushed him impatiently, "Go! I don't have the patience of the Second Master!"
It was too late for Lu Zeyi to run away, so he followed Si Chujin to a side room.
"Come in, your old friend is inside."
Lu Zeyi walked up the stone steps, reached out and pushed open the door, and a smell of ointment mixed with blood hit his nose.
The person lying on the bed was Chen Ji, whom he had been looking for for many days.
He was actually imprisoned here by the Si family, and a feeling of unease lingering in his heart became stronger and stronger!
"What did you do to him?"
"Oh, he's just asleep. Come and see him when he wakes up."
Si Chujin then ordered in a deep voice: "Please take him to the next room and take good care of him."
Lu Zeyi was kindly invited into the room by Ling Xiao and others. He lost his balance and fell heavily to the ground!
"Don't be rude, I'm your uncle's second uncle!"
Ling Xiao ignored his shouting, ruthlessly closed the door and locked it!
snort!
Return it to my uncle!
I don't want to do anything crazy!
At night, Si Chuyu comforted Lu Yuan to sleep and then rushed to the Si family villa.
"Brother, the person is already inside."
Si Chuyu took a few sips of hot tea and said, "Bring the person up here."
Soon, Lu Zeyi was brought up.
Lu Zeyi looked at Si Chuyu who was sitting in the upper seat and shouted angrily:
"Si Chuyu, I'm your second uncle. How dare you send someone to molest me like this? Do you still respect your elders? You're from a noble family. Aren't you afraid that people will say you're disrespectful to your elders?"
Si Chuyu pursed her lips when she heard that, and did not respond to him. She picked up the tea beside her and continued drinking.
Si Chuyu's disregard made Lu Zeyi look ugly.
"Si Chuyu! Now that I've moved out of the ancestral home and divided the family, what on earth do you want to do?"
Si Chuyu raised his eyes to look at him, "Do you think that simply dividing the family can make up for the mistakes you made?"
