Chapter 406 Watch Your Words and Actions
A woman's sixth sense is the sharpest, especially Lu Mingzhu, who was on the verge of falling out of favor. She saw through Lan Qiu's thoughts at a glance and became so angry that her body could not help but tremble, with a ferocious and vicious look on her face.
This slut.
Without saying a word, she had developed inappropriate thoughts about her husband. If it hadn't happened to her this time, I'm afraid we wouldn't have seen her true colors.
Wait until she regains her freedom and her husband's favor, and see how she deals with Lan Qiu.
Lan Qiu ran to the door in one breath, looked at the handsome and tall man in front of her with bright eyes, bowed and said: "Your servant greets the eldest young master."
The voice is soft and sweet, like the chirping of an oriole.
Xiao Muheng glanced at Lan Qiu indifferently, said "yes" perfunctorily, and then walked towards the inner room.
Liu Anyao followed him into the house without even looking at Lan Qiu.
Shuhua saw the two of them enter the inner room, and suddenly stopped beside Lan Qiu, looking at her gloomily: "Madam Lu just had a miscarriage, but you are so optimistic that you can still laugh."
Lan Qiu's face suddenly froze when he heard this, and the smile on the corner of his mouth disappeared on his face like dried dog shit.
"You...what nonsense are you talking about?"
Shuhua glanced at Lan Qiu with contempt and snorted with disdain: "You know what I said, so be aware of your status."
How shameless of you to dare to set your sights on the eldest young master.
The doctor was checking Lu Mingzhu's diet. When he saw Xiao Muheng enter the room, he hurriedly bowed and said, "I greet the young master."
Xiao Muheng nodded towards the doctor with a serious expression, indicating that he didn't need to be polite.
"Husband, you are finally here. Our child is gone, wuwuwuwu..." As soon as Lu Mingzhu saw Xiao Muheng, she burst into tears.
"Let's hear what the doctor says." Xiao Muheng frowned slightly and said in a cold voice.
Looking at Lu Mingzhu at this moment, he could not feel a trace of pity in his heart. Instead, Lu Xiang's stunning appearance inexplicably emerged in his mind. He couldn't help but think that if Lu Xiang encountered such a thing, he would definitely not cry as bitterly as Lu Mingzhu, which was disgusting.
If he married Lu Xiang...
"Husband, husband?" Liu Anyao's voice brought Xiao Muheng back to his senses.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Muheng asked blankly.
The depths of Liu Anyao's dark eyes couldn't help but sink. Xiao Muheng's tender look just now clearly showed who he was thinking about.
Who is this bitch that she doesn't know?
But she still said in a gentle and moving manner: "The doctor said that Aunt Lu took abortion pills..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the doctor said, "There is an abortion drug in this bowl." As he spoke, he picked up the bowl, sniffed it carefully, and reached out to taste it: "This bowl should be the pregnancy-maintaining medicine that Auntie didn't finish drinking, but it was mixed with an abortion drug, so it caused Auntie to have a miscarriage."
After the doctor finished speaking, his heart involuntarily skipped a beat.
Although he was a man, as a doctor he had seen pickling incidents in the backyards of other mansions. He wouldn't have encountered the same thing in his own employer's backyard.
Lu Mingzhu stared in astonishment, and asked in disbelief: "Abortion drugs were put into the pregnancy-preserving drugs?" She was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes shot towards Liu Anyao like knives: "Madam, you have always sent people to make my pregnancy-preserving drugs, why do you want to harm my child? It's not enough that you have harmed me, now you even don't let my child go?"
Her voice rose higher and higher as she accused him through her tears.
"My husband, why is the lady so intolerant of me? All I ask for is a little pity from you. As the mistress, does she want to kill me like this? My husband, please make the decision for me and seek justice for our child."
Xiao Muheng was stunned and subconsciously looked at Liu Anyao.
It's not that we can conclude that it was Liu Anyao who did it just by listening to Lu Mingzhu's one-sided statement, but this matter is indeed strange. If it wasn't Liu Anyao, then who else wanted to kill two birds with one stone?
Liu Anyao looked at Xiao Muheng calmly and said, "It's not me. I didn't."
"Who else could it be but you? You have always been jealous of my husband's favor and afraid that I would give birth to a illegitimate son. One day, that would threaten your position and make your son inferior to my son." Lu Mingzhu stared at Liu Anyao with red eyes and said hatefully.
"Don't think too highly of yourself. He's just a bastard. I don't care about him at all, and there's no need to take action at this time." Liu Anyao said disdainfully.
"Who boiled the pregnancy-stabilizing medicine and who else handled it? Just interrogate them one by one and you'll know." Xiao Muheng said in a deep voice with his hands behind his back.
His body was like a jade tree, his face was like a jade crown, he was dressed in brocade clothes, with sleeves with dark cloud patterns, and his icy eyes were dark and deep, like a deep pool.
Lu Mingzhu gritted her teeth and pointed at Liu Anyao angrily: "Madam is the mistress of the house and is in charge of all the affairs of the mansion. All servants obey her orders. Who dares to tell the truth?"
"Hehe, what do you want?" Liu Anyao looked at Lu Mingzhu with a mocking look and said.
Lu Mingzhu looked at Xiao Muheng hesitantly, her eyes full of tenderness, and said with a wronged and forbearing expression: "Forget it, my status is low, I can't compare with Madam, the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, who is so powerful, how dare I be an enemy of Madam, no matter what Madam does to me, I deserve it."
Liu Anyao was so angry that she laughed at Lu Mingzhu's shameless words.
This was said intentionally for Xiao Muheng to hear.
It implies that the Liu family is powerful and can do whatever they want. Now that her husband has entered the Imperial College with the help of her father's power, the Liu family will suppress him for the rest of his life, and no matter what she does, it will not have any impact.
Xiao Muheng is a man, and more importantly, a man with strong self-esteem. Would he be willing to be suppressed by Liu Anyao because of the power of the Liu family in the future?
It has to be said that although Lu Mingzhu's methods were stupid, what she said was effective in attacking people's hearts.
Everything depends on Xiao Muheng's thought.
If he was taking advantage of the Liu family but was afraid of their power at the same time, then Lu Mingzhu's words would hit the nail on the head. Even if he didn't believe that Liu Anyao had harmed Lu Mingzhu's child, he would still feel a grudge against her.
Liu Anyao was so annoyed by Lu Mingzhu's move that her face turned pale with anger.
Suddenly, a pair of big hands gently embraced her shoulders. Liu Anyao was startled and looked up at Xiao Muheng. She saw a pair of dark eyes, deep as the sea, but with a hint of tenderness and comfort.
Liu Anyao suddenly relaxed. Xiao Muheng's attitude made her no longer have any worries.
"Mr. Lu, please watch your words and actions." Xiao Muheng looked at Lu Mingzhu and said lightly.
He understood what Lu Mingzhu meant, but what she didn't understand was that he had just entered the Imperial College and was only a seventh-rank clerk. He needed Prime Minister Liu's support at this time. How could he feel that Liu Anyao's powerful father was a threat to him?
He was only thankful that he had withstood countless pressures and married Liu Anyao, otherwise how could he have entered the Imperial College so smoothly today?
