Chapter 644: Living Goal
During this period, Wei Qing had almost finished investigating Lu Xuan. After listening to his subordinates' reports, Wei Qing had only one thought: this was an absolute little beast.
"This little beast was kept in a temple, eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures all day long, but he didn't do anything humane. He took pleasure in abusing his servants, and he tortured many to death. But those who were tortured to death were all slaves...
"The laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty state that domestic slaves cannot be abused or killed at will. However, slaves are different. Slaves are like livestock. Killing them in any way you want is not a crime."
Wei Qing's eyes were filled with anger. This little beast disregarded human life. What was even more hateful was that the little beast knew the law and did all kinds of unscrupulous things, but he didn't even violate the laws of the Great Zhou!
After all his investigation, he didn't find any evidence against the little beast.
After hearing this, Tang Li frowned. She really didn't expect that this little beast Lu Xuan was so cunning.
She thought of the last time when Lord Lu brought Lu Xuan to apologize, and Lu Xuan was indeed humble and submissive.
The worst thing is not to be afraid of evil people, but to be afraid of evil people who use scheming tactics, which are sometimes hard to guard against.
"This is in the capital. He is in the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion. Lord Lu values his reputation and will not allow him to do whatever he wants. He can no longer harm innocent people." Tang Li said.
Wei Qing nodded.
He had wanted to find some evidence to teach this little bastard a lesson and vent his anger on his wife and Sanbao. Now that he had no evidence and no way to vent his anger, he was just a little disappointed.
"My husband, it's the same old saying, those who do evil will eventually suffer the consequences. He will get his comeuppance sooner or later. Don't mention him, it's bad luck." Tang Li said.
Wei Qing nodded: "What about Wushan Slave?"
"Almost done. Sanbao named him 'Wangyou'." Tangli said, "Wangyou, Wangyou means forget the sorrow and the suffering of the past. Our Sanbao has chosen an interesting name. I hope he can live up to it."
"He will." Wei Qing said.
Anyone who meets his wife will get better and better.
…
Pingyang Marquis Mansion.
The courtyard where Lu Xuan lived was very large and had many servants.
Princess Anyue felt that her son had suffered a lot outside for so many years, so it was natural to give him the best when he came back.
In the northwest corner of the courtyard, there is a small courtyard. The servants here all followed Lu Xuan back from the temple. They are considered his trusted servants. They know what kind of person he is best and are the most afraid of Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan ordered them to keep the situation in this small courtyard a secret, because if his parents heard about it, they would not let them go.
These people were naturally trembling with fear, and no one dared to say anything.
The door to this small courtyard is closed all day long, as if it is hiding some secret.
As soon as Lu Xuan walked into the yard, the servants quickly closed the door.
Lu Xuan's face looked very grim. His father had been watching him very closely in recent times.
Whenever he wanted to beat or scold the servants, his father would call him over and give him a scolding.
He felt a sense of depression stuck in his heart, unable to vent it, and felt extremely uncomfortable.
"The young marquis is here." A middle-aged man with a simple and honest look came forward with a flattering look on his face.
Lu Xuan nodded, walked inside and entered a room.
The middle-aged man hurriedly followed.
The room was cold and damp, giving it an eerie feeling.
There was a deep trench in the room, where many snakes were kept.
It turned out that this middle-aged man was a snake breeder. He was brought back from outside by Lu Xuan and secretly placed in the Marquis' Mansion.
Ordinary people would find something creepy, but Lu Xuan looked at it with excitement.
He stretched out his hands towards those things, his eyes excited: "Little baby..."
…
Wangyou's body has fully recovered.
However, without the Three Treasures' order, he stayed in his room all day and did not go out.
As soon as Sanbao saw him, his eyes lit up and joy was revealed in them.
Sanbao looked at Wangyou. Over this period of time, the boy had become much fatter because of her.
The boy was quite tall, much taller than Sanbao. His face was very three-dimensional, with deep features, broad shoulders, and a somewhat strong build, no longer looking thin as before.
Sanbao looked quite accomplished.
When Wangyou talks to Sanbao, he also lowers his head. Although he looks a bit rebellious, he appears very obedient.
"Owner."
"Why don't you go out for a walk? You're bored staying in the room." Sanbao asked.
Wangyou actually has very complicated feelings about going out.
First, there was no order from the master, and second... he was afraid.
He was afraid of the people outside, afraid of everything outside...
Only in this room, or where the owner is, does he feel at ease.
"Master, do you want me to go out?" Wangyou said, staring at Sanbao with his black eyes.
He would rather stay in this room, but if it is his master's order, he will obey it.
"Wangyou, you are a person and you can have your own ideas. Do you want to go out?"
Wangyou opened his mouth but couldn't say anything. He was still not used to having his own thoughts.
"Wangyou, tell me, do you want to?"
Wangyou's voice stuttered: "No...I don't want to."
I want to wait for the master here.
In the past, he would be locked up in a place, and when his master remembered him, he would come to find him.
But before, what he feared most was his master coming to find him, because that meant a torture worse than death.
It’s different now. The master’s arrival is a happy thing for him.
Therefore, this room also became a good place where he liked to stay and felt safe.
"Okay, then I won't go out." Sanbao said.
The corners of Wangyou's mouth curled up stiffly, forming an awkward arc.
Sanbao realized that it was a smile.
Just such a small thing, letting him make a choice, is enough to make him happy.
What’s even more heartbreaking is that the boy can’t even laugh.
When Sanbao saw Tangli again, he mentioned this matter.
"Mom, I respect Wangyou's thoughts. I know he is afraid of the outside world and I don't want to force him to go out. But I always feel that it is not good for him to stay in the room. He lacks vitality and is like a puppet. He only gets a little angry when he sees me. I don't think he should be like this. He is still so young. He should be like the young man in the storybooks, dressed in fine clothes and riding a horse." Sanbao said, a little distressed.
Tangli had a pensive expression.
When Sanbao was still a little girl, she felt sorry for Wangyou and wanted to be kind to him. Her thoughts were simple, but human hearts are complicated.
Wangyou has been abused for too long and feels that the world is full of malice. In fact, he is afraid of contacting this world.
For him, the Three Treasures may be the only ray of light, and only this light makes him feel warm.
Therefore, he only dared to surround this beam of light. Once he was away from it, he felt insecure.
In fact, Wangyou is somewhat similar to Du Ye back then. He doesn’t know why he is alive, has no purpose in life, and has no anger.
Tangli expressed his thoughts.
Sanbao's little brain worked quickly, and he quickly understood: "So I should find a target for Wangyou!"
"Yes, a life with goals will have hope and expectations, otherwise it will only be muddle-headed." Tang Li said.
Sanbao held his chin in his hand: "Then what target should we find for Wangyou?"
"Ask him if he is willing to learn martial arts and be your bodyguard," Tang Li said.
Wangyou has great strength and strong recovery ability. In fact, he is a very good martial arts genius. If he can learn it, he can become the guardian of the Three Treasures...
Wangyou has a goal, and Sanbao has someone to protect him. Isn’t that the best of both worlds?
