Luo Lingyu choked up, "How can I be in the mood to pray to Buddha! What's the point of praying to Buddha? No one will hear it. I just want to see Brother Xuechen with my own eyes! If Brother Xuechen... I don't want to live anymore!"
Lingyu: “…”
Even though she was panicking now, her cousin's words still made her pause. She thought to herself, you were not like this the last time you faced Lu Erlang. You were very sincere when you worshipped Buddha at that time. It was because of your sincerity that Mrs. Lu and others felt that you deserved to be forgiven. But now you say that you are too confused to worship Buddha...
In the house, the doctors and nurses worked together to apply medicine to Lu Sanlang. Lu Yun was splashed with scalding hot water on his face, and thanks to his timely lifting of his sleeves, only his eyes were touched by the hot water. The doctors applied ointment on him and then wrapped his eyes with gauze. When Mrs. Lu and others came to visit, they saw a circle of gauze wrapped around the eyes of the handsome man. The old lady thought that Sanlang was blind and became anxious.
Naturally, I was immediately told that my eyes were fine.
The doctor said, "...It's just that it's easier to protect the wound. As long as you take good care of yourself, we will ensure that you won't have any scars on your face."
Lu Yun, with gauze wrapped around his eyes, nodded to the doctors and faced the old lady, who was in tears. Although he couldn't see, he could imagine the confusion of the people. Lu Yun only begged the old lady: "Grandma, don't blame Cousin Luo. It was me who wanted to save people at that time. It had nothing to do with her."
Mrs. Lu was angry: "You are in this state, and you are still pleading for her..."
Lu Yun: "Grandmother..."
Mrs. Lu observed the situation and coughed: "The most abominable one is the person who poured the tea. Why did he pour the tea for no reason? Did he want to hurt Sanlang on purpose?"
Madam Lu: "Yes, this matter must be investigated thoroughly."
Lu Yun never agreed with Mrs. Lu's plan to settle accounts with Luo Lingyu. After Lu Erlang came in, he also helped to intercede. Mrs. Lu and Lu Ying also agreed. Mrs. Lu saw that Lu Yun was indeed fine. After she let go of her worries, she was no longer so resentful of Luo Lingyu. Mrs. Lu just found it strange. Why did they all intercede for Luo Lingyu? Lu Ying helped her niece, so what were Lu Erlang and his mother Mrs. Lu doing?
After leaving the inner room, Mrs. Lu told her mother-in-law about her observations: "As far as I know, Sanlang Lu and Niangzi Luo are in love with each other. As for the affairs between the children, let them deal with them on their own. We should not interfere."
"What?!" Old Madam Lu was shocked. "Mrs. Luo and Sanlang... How is this possible? How can Mrs. Luo's family background be worthy of our Sanlang?"
Mrs. Lu: "I'm afraid Sanlang has his own ideas. He never listens to what we say. Mother should not get involved."
Old Madam Lu remained silent, but her face still looked unhappy. When she and Madam Lu and others left Sun'er's house, they saw the girl wandering in the corridor outside the house, with an extremely beautiful face. However, thinking of her background, Old Madam Lu was even more displeased. However, as soon as Luo Lingyu saw the few people coming out, she ran over. She looked anxious, but she tried to hide it and tried to keep herself calm: "Old Madam, Madam, I questioned the tea doctor. He didn't mean it..."
Luo Lingyu was very clear and organized. She called Dr. Tea and asked several key questions in front of all the women. It was very orderly and not chaotic. Mrs. Lu nodded to her. The other women were surprised that she was so calm. Mrs. Lu also showed a look of surprise on her face. In the end, Mrs. Lu looked at her and sighed, her voice was sad and bitter: "It's so troublesome. They are really two enemies..."
Luo Lingyu's face showed anxiety again.
She watched helplessly as a group of women escorted the old lady away, leaving her alone and unattended. She didn't know what to do.
…
The Lu family was in an uproar because of Lu Sanlang's injury, and they were still in trouble until the lights started to light up in the evening. Outside the Lu family, in an alley, Hengyang King Liu Mu had a serious look, his face was pale, and his muscles were tense. The night was like a big beast about to fall, and the shadows were pressing down on him.
The young man had a grim look on his face and sad eyes: Is this really the case?
The one who wanted to kill him was never King Chen or Lu Sanlang, but His Majesty, the emperor who always took good care of him and cared about his daily life.
He thought that as long as he stayed in Hengyang, he would not be suspected, and that as long as he did not do anything big, he would be safe...but his brother still wanted to kill him! He had done nothing!
The warrior was no match for Liu Mu, and answered Liu Mu's questions under Liu Mu's interrogation. Liu Mu's mind was empty, and he walked in the alley at night, one foot deep and one foot shallow, and couldn't help but laugh at himself. His brother wanted to kill him, but he took the initiative to come to Jianye and wait to be killed... Was it just his brother who wanted to kill him, or did his mother know about it? Did the Queen Mother also approve of his brother's behavior?
The human heart in this world is unpredictable, and it is hard to tell good from bad. The retainers around him were all sent to him by the late emperor, the current emperor, and the empress dowager. At this moment, Liu Mu couldn't even tell which faction the people around him belonged to, and whether they were helping the emperor to monitor him and deal with him. Who can he trust in this world...
The young man with a cold and angry face was suddenly stopped by a servant hiding in the alley: "Sir..."
Liu Mu stopped and looked sideways. His cold and hard face frightened the servant. Liu Mu recognized him and said, "Are you Lu Erlang's man? Are you waiting for me?"
The servant trembled, "Yes... our Sanlang was injured, and the young master went back with Sanlang. Our young master asked me to wait for the young master here, and when the young master returns safely, I will go and tell the young master a message."
Liu Mu's eyes flickered with uncertainty, and he stared at the servant woodenly. After a long time, his anger subsided a little, and he said calmly: "Well, tell him that I'm back, don't worry."
The world is ridiculous. His brother wants to kill him, and his mother may be his helper. But it is a young man from a noble family whom he has always disliked who cares about him.
…
Luo Lingyu refused to leave the Qingyuan. In the evening, she still refused to leave and was said to have been crying. Lu Yun had no choice but to let Jinyue bring her in. He didn't want to see her like this, but she obviously didn't believe what the maid said, and her crying gave him a headache.
