Chapter 256: Living is the best torture for Liang Yusong
Lu Song left the capital.
With Lu Song's departure, the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery seemed to suddenly become silent.
Liang Yusong was not at home, and the weather was getting colder. Madam Lu was too lazy to go out, Wang Min was bored in her room, and Second Madam Zhou Fang was worried about the imperial examination next year. No one was causing trouble in the mansion, and it was peaceful.
The weather is getting colder and the New Year is approaching. On this day, it was snowing heavily and there were even fewer people walking outside.
In the middle of the Lingshui Hall, a warm charcoal basin was burning. Lu Jiangnian was taking a day off today, so he sat in the room drinking tea. Yuan Wanru, with her eyes wide open, listened to Xuan Qing's storytelling with great interest.
This is not about a book, but a true story, a true story that makes people happy.
A while ago, the people Lu Jiangnian sent to block the road had already replied.
The one who was blocking the way was Liang Yusong's second brother, Liang Zhi.
"Before Liang Zhi and others entered Qinghe County, the prince arranged for our people to hide their identities and sneak into Qinghuang Mountain to become bandits."
"There was originally a group of fierce bandits in Qinghuang Mountain, who committed all kinds of evil, such as burning, killing, looting and so on."
"However, they paid tribute to the people in the nearby county government, so the local government's suppression of the bandits was just a pretense, which made these people more and more daring."
"Our people deliberately spread false information, saying that Liang Zhi and his men were wealthy businessmen and fat sheep. Of course, the bandits would not miss this opportunity to make a fortune."
“Take advantage of the situation and when the fight started, our people took the opportunity to destroy Liang Zhi.”
Yuan Wanru listened attentively, and Liu Yan opened his eyes wide and listened with his ears perked up, afraid of missing a word.
Xuan Qing did not keep the secret and continued, "Both of Liang Zhi's legs were chopped off. He became a cripple."
Yuan Wanru clapped her hands and said, "Well done. We should save his life. It would be better if he were alive. It would be a pity if he died."
Shi Ying always enjoyed taking revenge, and asked in confusion: "Madam, why is this? Liang Zhi is not a good person, why don't you take the opportunity to kill him?"
Yuan Wanru did not answer, but looked at Lu Jiangnian with a smile: "Do you also think that Liang Zhi should not die?"
Lu Jiangnian raised his eyes to look at her, and when their eyes met, they could see clearly the conspiracy in each other's eyes.
Only one thought flashed through his mind: no wonder he liked her before.
Many of Yuanshi's ideas coincided with his.
He likes to deal with smart people.
"Um."
Yuan Wanru smiled even more brightly: "Great minds think alike."
She stopped playing tricks and patiently explained it to Quartz.
"Liang Zhi is dead, Liang Yusong will be in pain, and the Liang family and Concubine Liang will all be sad."
"But this is only a temporary sadness. If Liang Zhi were alive, it would be different."
"Liang Zhi was once full of vigor and ambition, and he prided himself on being a romantic and dashing man. But now he has become a legless cripple. Can he accept this kind of disparity?"
"What will be the unacceptable result?"
"He will definitely go crazy and mad, and then torture the people around him."
Yuan Wanru showed an extremely cold smile: "This way, Liang Yusong will be even more miserable. This kind of misery will follow her everywhere, like a thorn in her flesh, and she will not be able to get rid of it."
"Look, isn't it more interesting when Liang Zhi is alive?"
Xuan Qing shuddered all over and swallowed hard.
What he didn't say was that the prince ordered that Liang Zhi's third leg be crippled as well.
Liang Zhi will definitely go crazy and become a pervert. In short, the prince's goal will definitely be achieved.
Xuan Qing felt that this couple was truly terrifying.
The men are good at martial arts and have status, while the women are skilled in medicine and are vicious enough. In short, don't offend them.
Fortunately, he was one of their own.
Shi Ying and others did not think that Yuan Wanru was cruel. It would be foolish to be soft-hearted towards the enemy.
After Xuan Qing finished explaining what happened, he walked out, and Liu Yan and the others also came out.
He leaned closer to Liu Yan and said, "Do you want to hear more? In order to save time, there are still many details that I haven't mentioned. If you want to hear them, I'll tell you everything."
Liu Yan's eyes lit up, and there was no hesitation at all.
"I want to hear it. You're so nice."
Liu Yan followed Xuan Qing's footsteps and walked towards the tea room with an excited look on his face.
Xuan Qing's footsteps were brisk and proud.
Look how smart he is. Recently, the two of them get together every day to gossip, and the distance between them has shortened dozens of times.
It can be predicted that the day when he gets married is not far away.
-
Only Lu Jiangnian and Yuan Wanru were left in the room.
He threw a booklet over: "This is what you want."
Yuan Wanru opened it and found a picture album inside. In the middle of the page was a portrait of a man, and next to it were small words describing the man's life story and family situation.
This was the young man she asked Lu Jiangnian to find out about, one who was suitable for the Cao sisters.
She opened the first page and her eyes lit up. The man in the album looked energetic and gave people a good feeling.
"The painter's brushwork is good, and of course, he looks good."
She turned to the second page and said, "Oh, this one is good too. It looks so handsome."
On the third page, Yuan Wanru said, "Oh," "This one looks good too."
Lu Jiangnian simply couldn't bear to listen any more.
Her eyes were filled with peach blossoms, there was no trace of reserve at all.
He snatched the booklet and said sarcastically, "Since it is for the Cao sisters to choose a husband, don't look at it. Let them choose for themselves."
"Don't forget, you are a married woman."
Yuan Wanru frowned at him and said in a dissatisfied tone: "Then I have to check it first. She spent a lot of money to give me a matchmaking. I took the money, so I have to do the job perfectly."
"Bring it to me. I was just focused on their appearance and didn't have time to look at their family backgrounds."
She reached out and tried to take the booklet from him.
But how could Lu Jiangnian give it to him?
He held it in his left hand and hid far away.
"No need to look closely. The person I chose is worthy of the money Cao Lanxin gave you."
"Since they want to get married, they have to be satisfied with it themselves. You don't have the final say."
As he spoke, he was already shouting, asking people outside to invite the Cao sisters to Lingshuiju.
Yuan Wanru could see through his little thoughts.
"Lu Jiangnian, are you embarrassed? I just looked at you a few more times. Why are you so nervous?"
"No wonder Su Shaodong said you are a jealous person. Do you admit it?"
She simply gave up trying to grab the album, and stared at him with her watery eyes, with obvious mockery in them.
Lu Jiang coughed and said, "Nonsense, I'm just worried that you're being a villain in vain."
"What you think is good may not be liked by the Cao sisters."
"It's better to let them choose for themselves, so they won't blame you in the future."
There is some truth in this.
"Okay, I won't watch it anymore. Let them choose for themselves."
Lu Jiangnian secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After the Cao sisters finished reading it, he burned the booklet.
In short, she will not be allowed to touch this picture album again.
A woman without vision.
Although the people he chose have good qualifications, which one can compare to him?
Why doesn't she praise him?
