After a long silence, Lu Qingzhou slowly said, "I heard that Lord Mu has long been in love with your cousin Gu Qingyue. Unfortunately, fate has played tricks on him. Your cousin is now the queen. Lord Mu has never married. Is that the reason?"
Lu Qingzhou glanced at Gu Yunran as he spoke. Seeing that Gu Yunran didn't say anything, he knew that what Minister Li said to him was true. He continued, "And you are nine points similar to the current queen."
Hearing this, Gu Yunran took a deep breath, resisted the urge to beat up Lu Qingzhou, raised an eyebrow and asked, "So?"
"Lord Mu will definitely not be tired of you. He might even have a different feeling when he sees you. When the time comes, you can pretend to fall into the river, and he will definitely jump in to save you. You take the opportunity to entangle him, and then I will have a chance."
Bang!
As soon as Lu Qingzhou finished speaking, Gu Yunran slapped Lu Qingzhou in the face.
"Are you crazy? Don't you know I can't swim?" she questioned Lu Qingzhou.
Aren't you afraid that she will drown?
Lu Qingzhou lowered his head and pursed his lips. He knew he was in the wrong and felt guilty, but he had no other choice.
He explained, "Although Lord Mu is ruthless and treacherous, he is also a man who values ​​friendship and loyalty. Whether it's because of the kindness he received from his father-in-law as a teacher or the friendship you two have shared since childhood, he will not let you be put in danger."
Gu Yunran's chest heaved with anger: "This is all your speculation."
"You have to trust me."
Lu Qingzhou looked at Gu Yunran with determined eyes, pleading in them: "Yunran, only you can help me."
Gu Yunran looked at Lu Qingzhou with disdain and sneered, "To put it bluntly, you're asking your wife to seduce Mu Qianchen? Is that what you mean, Lu Qingzhou?"
Lu Qingzhou lowered his head and clenched his fists.
He roared, "Yun Ran, how could you think of me like this?"
"I'll get the stuff as soon as possible, just hold him back for a while."
"What if I lose my virginity?"
Lu Qingzhou pursed his lips and was silent for a while. He whispered, "I will control the time well."
Gu Yunran raised an eyebrow: "What if I don't agree?"
"Don't you want a divorce? As long as you help me complete this, I promise to give you a divorce."
Gu Yunran snorted: "You are really a piece of shit!"
She turned her head away, no longer willing to look at Lu Qingzhou. How blind her previous generation must have been to fall for such a man.
He doesn't even have the bottom line of a man.
Tears fell silently on her cheeks, and she cried for her stupidity in her previous life.
The carriage suddenly became quiet.
The woman's sobbing was very soft, but Lu Qingzhou still heard it. He felt very upset because he knew that he had wronged her by doing this.
But he had no other choice.
Clenching his fists, Lu Qingzhou explained, "Yun Ran, I know you hate me right now, but you have to believe me, I have my reasons."
"Besides, you forced me to do what I'm doing now."
Gu Yunran turned around and looked at Lu Qingzhou in surprise. "I forced you to steal from Mu Qianchen? I forced you to ask me to seduce Mu Qianchen? Lu Qingzhou, what kind of logic is this?"
Lu Qingzhou snorted: "Do you know what I stole?"
"I don't want to know."
"Then I also have to tell you that this is evidence that Minister Li embezzled disaster relief funds."
"What does it have to do with me?"
Lu Qingzhou stared at Gu Yunran, sighed, and complained, "Thanks to you, I can no longer enter the officialdom. Fortunately, Minister Li thinks highly of me and lets me help him."
"He said that if I could complete this task, he would give me a thousand taels of gold. He also promised to help me open a shop and do some business so that I could find a way out."
"I am the man of the family. The huge Lu Mansion is waiting for me to take care of it. Moreover, Qiuju and Mei Niang are both pregnant. I can't let them go hungry, and I can't let the children go hungry."
Lu Qingzhou grabbed Gu Yunran's hand and said, "Yunran, you have to understand my difficulties."
Gu Yunran shook off Lu Qingzhou, sat further back, and kept a distance from him, not wanting to look at him anymore.
An indifferent voice came.
"Lu Qingzhou, you never reflect on yourself when you make a mistake, but instead blame all the mistakes on others. You..." Gu Yunran took a deep breath and didn't want to argue with him anymore.
"Fourth Master's wife, we've arrived."
After hearing the coachman's words, Gu Yunran got off the carriage first. Lu Qingzhou wanted to hug her, but was pushed away by Gu Yunran.
"Get out of the way."
Lu Qingzhou's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth: "This is at the gate of the shogunate."
Outside, Gu Yunran didn't give him, her husband, any face at all. He looked at Gu Yunran with eyes that seemed to want to eat her up.
"It's fine if you just make a scene at home, but why are you making a scene outside?"
Gu Yunran snorted coldly: "You're willing to let me seduce other men. You're capable of doing such a dirty thing. Do you still care about your face?"
"Put aside your hypocritical thoughts."
"brute!"
After Gu Yunran finished speaking, he turned and walked forward.
The coachman shook his head. He had overheard most of the conversation in the carriage, and even he thought Lu Qingzhou was a beast.
"It's really hard for you, Madam." The driver said silently.
Lu Qingzhou's face was dark. He glanced at the coachman and found that he was lowering his head and carefully tidying the carriage. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
Their voices just now were not loud, so the driver probably didn't hear them.
He straightened the folds on his clothes before moving forward.
At this time, the official of the shogunate opened the door. He was surprised to see that it was Gu Yunran, and he was even more surprised when he saw Lu Qingzhou behind her.
