Chapter 85 You're forcing her with your brother and younger brother's future...
After Qi Ze finished speaking, he turned around and left. This time he really left and never came back.
He didn't care at all how much psychological trauma his words would bring to Sheng Hongyu, nor did he care whether he could sleep tonight.
Sheng Hongyu almost fell into the chair with his legs weak, his face turning slightly blue.
He just favored a concubine, and he really didn't expect that it would bring him such a big trouble.
Gong Lu usually stays in the mansion and doesn't like to go out. No matter how big the trouble is, he can handle it as long as he stays in this mansion.
Who knew how things turned out like this.
Not only did she harm herself, but she also implicated him...
Sheng Hongyu sat on the chair for a while, and a fire suddenly burned in his heart as if someone poured a bucket of oil on him.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and the angrier he became, the more restless he became. He finally stood up with a gloomy face and strode towards the woodshed.
When he reached the door, Sheng Hongyu kicked it open. His eyes swept over Gong Lu, who was huddled in the corner and shivering, looking extremely miserable and pitiful. His eyes were extremely cold.
When she saw him, her eyes lit up and tears fell.
She almost crawled to Sheng Hongyu, shivering and gently pulling Sheng Hongyu's sleeve, and asked fearfully: "Hongyu, Hongyu brother, are you here to let me out?"
"I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong. Can you give me a chance and help me? I'll go apologize to the Third Young Master's wife."
"I will ask for her forgiveness, and I will also apologize to the Third Young Master..."
Gong Lu's voice became lower and lower until it disappeared in her throat.
She looked at the indifference in Sheng Hongyu's eyes, and her heart seemed to have fallen to the bottom of the lake. She couldn't stop shaking, and was extremely scared. The hand that was holding Sheng Hongyu's sleeve slowly loosened.
Seeing Gong Lu's miserable appearance, Sheng Hongyu's anger subsided a little, and he felt a little more distressed for her.
After all, she was the woman he truly loved, and she looked so much like his deceased cousin. Sheng Hongyu felt extremely upset.
His expression softened little by little, and his eyes softened as well. He reached out and touched Gong Lu's red and swollen cheek, and asked distressedly, "Does it hurt?"
Gong Lu was overjoyed by Sheng Hongyu's change of attitude. She seemed to see hope again, and hurriedly held Sheng Hongyu's hand, her tone cautious and a bit coquettish.
"It hurts, it hurts, Brother Hongyu, but if you blow on me it will stop hurting."
Sheng Hongyu leaned close to her and blew gently. Gong Lu burst into laughter and hugged Sheng Hongyu's waist tightly: "Brother Hongyu, you are so nice. Today, today really scared me to death. I thought, I thought..."
The words that followed were not very pleasant to hear, so Gong Lu didn't say them out loud for fear of ruining the atmosphere.
But Sheng Hongyu didn't hug Gong Lu. He just sighed helplessly in her ear and asked, "Do you know who came just now?"
Gong Lu shook her head. How could she know since she was locked in the woodshed?
Sheng Hongyu didn't beat around the bush: "Fourth Prince, it was the Fourth Prince who came just now. Do you know what the relationship between the Fourth Prince and Qin Sheng is?"
Gong Lu's whole body stiffened, and her arms around Sheng Hongyu loosened a little.
She slowly withdrew from Sheng Hongyu's embrace and looked up at him. The smile on her face finally faded and turned into deep fear.
Having shared a bed with her for years, how could Gong Lu not understand Sheng Hongyu? Her voice was trembling as she spoke: "So, you, you want to sacrifice me?"
Sheng Hongyu looked helpless as he wiped away her tears of fear, his eyes filled with pity: "Gong Lu, I didn't want to do that either, but you clearly knew her identity, so why did you say those things?"
"If you hadn't said those words, why would you have put me in such a difficult position? And why would you have hurt yourself?"
Gong Lu shook her head desperately, subconsciously trying to stay away from Sheng Hongyu, but Sheng Hongyu grabbed her and pressed her into his arms.
Sheng Hongyu whispered in her ear, "Be good, bear with it, it will be over soon. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain to the Fourth Prince or anyone else."
"I promise you that I will take good care of your family, so be obedient, okay?"
Gong Lu was almost overwhelmed by fear. Facing death, she finally couldn't hold it in any longer. She cried out in pain and started cursing Sheng Hongyu with all the nasty words she could think of.
Sheng Hongyu let her curse, then let her go. Without even looking at Gong Lu, he turned and walked out the door.
The moment she turned around, the tenderness in her eyes instantly turned into deep indifference, and her tone was no longer as affectionate as before, revealing a cold and murderous tone: "Come here, Concubine Gong has committed treason and high treason. Drag her out and beat her to death with clubs."
Gong Lu collapsed to the ground, and there was no trace of blood on his face.
Looking at Sheng Hongyu's indifferent back, she forced herself to use her last bit of strength to shout angrily: "Sheng Hongyu, you bully the weak and fear the strong, I curse you to die a miserable death! I curse you to go to hell..."
She couldn't curse a few words before someone covered her mouth and hit her body with a stick. The pain made her unable to curse anymore.
Sheng Hongyu ignored the movement behind him and stopped after leaving the yard.
He looked up at the moon in the sky that was sometimes bright and sometimes dim, and felt empty in his heart, as if everything was gone.
After standing for a while, he instructed the people behind him without turning his head: "As for Aunt Gong's family, arrange for a few people to deal with it quickly. Don't let them suffer for too long."
The servant shuddered, feeling that Sheng Hongyu was like an evil ghost at this moment. His words were obviously very heartless, but he chose to say them in a gentle tone, which was really creepy.
After Sheng Hongyu finished speaking, he did not stop and went straight to Liu's yard.
When he reached the door, he was stopped outside. The servant lowered his eyebrows and said cautiously, "Master, the lady has gone to bed. Please come back tomorrow."
Sheng Hongyu was not angry, nor did he force his way in.
He just stared at the closed door, not caring whether Liu could hear him or not, and said, "Madam, no matter how many faults I have, we are still husband and wife."
"Between you and me, we prosper together and suffer together."
"Even if you don't consider yourself, I hope Madam can consider the children a little bit. As for Chu Yian... I also hope Madam can pay a little more attention to him."
"As long as this trouble can be resolved, I will never do anything to make Madam sad again, and the other concubines in the backyard can be sent away."
"In the past, I was the husband who let Madam down. I apologize to Madam here. I'm sorry."
There was no sound in the room, and the deep night amplified his voice.
Sheng Hongyu stood there for a long time without getting a response, so he turned and left the yard, then went to Sheng Nianyao's yard and asked someone to call Sheng Nianyao out.
Sheng Nianyao knew that Sheng Hongyu would definitely come to see her tonight, so she didn't go to bed at all.
But she felt uncomfortable listening to Sheng Hongyu's words. She lowered her head without looking at Sheng Hongyu and muttered, "Third Uncle, I just came to Shengjing not long ago. Since I came here, it has always been my aunt who has taken care of everything for me."
"You...are really not treating her well, and now you're forcing her to take advantage of the future of her brothers."
"Even if not for myself, I will definitely compromise for the sake of the children. But have you ever thought about the grievances I've suffered?"
"You've been so cold to her all these years, and you've even let a concubine bully her, throwing her dignity as the mistress of the house to be trampled upon. You, you're so foolish..."
