Chapter 472 Missing
Lu Jingxun was called back by the wife of Marquis Yongkang, and the servants had already told Lu Jingxun the general situation on the way!
After hearing this, Lu Jingxun was so angry that he wanted to kill someone!
"How dare he secretly mine gold? How many heads does he think he has?"
When Lady Yongkang Marquis saw Lu Jingxun coming, she felt a little relieved!
"Wei Feng has sealed off the gold mines in Huainan City and surrounded the mansion in his hometown, saying that no one can enter or leave without his order!"
"How is father now?"
"The imperial physician just came and has woken up now. With something like this happening, I'm afraid our mansion is doomed!"
"Don't worry, mother. I'll go find Shi'an right now."
The wife of the Marquis of Yongkang had a worried look on her face: "That girl hates our Marquis' Mansion, will she help us?"
"I will definitely help. Don't forget that Yu Xiuying is still a member of the Marquis' Mansion. If something happens to the Marquis' Mansion, Yu Xiuying will not be able to escape."
"hope so."
Lu Jingxun went to the Prince's Mansion without even having time to change into his official uniform.
What he didn't expect was that he didn't even see Lu Shian.
The gatekeeper just said a few words to Lu Jingxun respectfully, then turned around, closed the door, and ignored Lu Jingxun.
"Our concubine said that at this time, the Marquis' Mansion should not have any contact with the Crown Prince's Mansion."
Lu Jingxun was left out on the street like this, he was furious but helpless.
The current Lu Shian is no longer someone he can order around at will.
Lu Jingxun failed to meet Lu Shian and could only return to the Marquis' Mansion in shame.
When Marquis Yongkang knew that Lu Jingxun had returned, he quickly called him over.
"What does Shi'an say?"
Lu Jingxun looked embarrassed: "Father, at this time, it is better to avoid suspicion, otherwise if Shi An is implicated, our mansion will really be finished."
Yongkang Hou was so smart that he understood immediately: "She doesn't want to see you, right?"
Lu Jingxun lowered his head, but he hated Lu Shian in his heart.
He is her father after all, how can she just stand by and watch?
Yongkang Hou said with a sullen face: "Humph, go and call Yu."
"Yes, father."
As he said this, he also opened the quilt and got out of bed.
"I want to go to the palace to see the emperor."
As long as he gets rid of it quickly and with the prince pleading for him, I believe the Marquis's Mansion can still be saved.
A stick of incense later, Yu Xiuying went to the Prince's Mansion for the first time.
She didn't want to go, she didn't want to implicate her own daughter, but the wife of Yongkang Marquis said: "She is the daughter of the Marquisate. Even if she marries the prince, she is still a member of Yongkang Marquisate. As long as Yongkang Marquisate is there, the daughters of Yongkang Marquisate will be superior to others. If Yongkang Marquisate falls one day, who will look at the daughters of Yongkang Marquisate more? We all rise and fall together."
Yu Xiuying didn't want to cause trouble for her daughter, but she also knew that what the wife of Marquis Yongkang said was true.
Lu Shi'an guessed that since he didn't meet Lu Jingxun, Yu Xiuying might come to see him. Unexpectedly, the Marquis' Mansion really asked Yu Xiuying to come.
If she comes, Lu Shian will definitely meet her.
Yu Xiuying followed the maid all the way to the backyard of the inner house. Looking at the buildings in the Prince's Mansion that were full of carved beams and painted phoenixes, and even a random tree or a flower was very precious, she couldn't help but admire that the Prince's Mansion was indeed rich.
The servants had already told Lu Shian the news. Lu Shian was happy to see his mother again and waited outside Ping'an Garden early.
"mother."
"Ten An."
When the mother and daughter met, they held hands affectionately.
Thinking that her daughter was now a concubine, Yu Xiuying quickly bowed. Lu Shian held her with both hands and said, "Mom, there are no outsiders here."
"That won't work either. Etiquette cannot be abolished. You are a concubine, so I should be polite to you."
"Mother, I am a concubine and also your daughter."
"Hey? Why can't I see Lu'er?"
Ever since Lu'er followed Lu Shi'an, she has been inseparable from him. If you see Lu Shi'an, you can see Lu'er. Similarly, if you see Lu'er, you should know that Lu Shi'an is nearby.
"I have something for her to do here."
As soon as the two entered the house, a servant brought them tea.
As soon as he sat down, Lu Shian asked, "How is the Marquis' Mansion now?"
"The Marquis fainted from anger, and the rest of the people were in a panic, and they were all terrified."
As she spoke, Yu Xiuying glanced around and seeing that she and her daughter were the only ones in the main hall, she began to take things out.
I saw jewelry on her wrists and inside her clothes.
Seeing so many jewels, Lu Shian was surprised: "Mom, did you bring all the jewels?"
"That's not all."
As he said this, he waved to Ying'er beside him, indicating her to take the brocade box in her hand.
Inside the brocade box were the land deeds given to her by Lu Shian, a large number of silver bills, and some small change.
"Take these. I heard that digging for gold without permission will cost you your life. Maybe the mansion will be raided, but these won't all be confiscated."
Lu Shian did not refuse: "Mom, don't worry, the matter has not been concluded yet, you just need to stay at home with peace of mind. If that day really comes, I will not ignore you."
"I know, you are my adopted child, I was busy and didn't know, hey...anyway, take these."
Yu Xiuying stood up and was about to leave: "The Marquis' Mansion is still waiting for my reply, I won't stay any longer."
Lu Shian stood up and held her back: "Mom, you're leaving now? You didn't even say a word of pleading?"
Yu Xiuying smiled: "Before I came here, I was planning to persuade you to beg the prince, but when I entered the prince's mansion and saw you, I felt that the affairs of the Marquis's mansion were not as important as my daughter. As long as my daughter is happy, let the people in the Marquis's mansion worry about the affairs of the Marquis's mansion."
Lu Shian felt warm in his heart when he saw that Yu Xiuying really cared about him.
"The prince told me about Lu Jinghui, otherwise I wouldn't have known about it."
Yu Xiuying was surprised and asked, "Did the prince tell you?"
Lu Shian nodded: "The prince guessed that the Marquis' Mansion came back to beg me, and he asked me not to meet the people from the Marquis' Mansion first. Lord Wei will find out what is going on."
This matter involves too many things. It is impossible for Lu Jinghui to be able to steal gold mines. But just the fact that he was able to seriously injure Cheng An and Yong Chang is not something that an ordinary guard can do.
Yu Xiuying nodded: "Then what should I say when I go back?"
"Just say we were just chatting about family matters and nothing else."
Yu Xiuying nodded, returned to the mansion, and relayed what Lu Shian had taught her to the wife of the Yongkang Society.
Mrs. Yongkanghui had a very unpleasant expression on her face. After hearing what Yu Xiuying said, she didn't say anything, but just waved her hand to signal Yu Xiuying to go out.
After Yu Xiuying left, the wife of the Marquis of Yongkang said coldly: "I had guessed that the girl would not help the Marquis's Mansion, and sure enough..."
The nanny standing by stood up for the Marquis's family.
"If she wasn't the daughter of the Marquis's Mansion, did she think the prince would marry her?"
"Hmph, just wait and see. If the Marquis's Mansion collapses, all her favors will no longer exist."
