Chapter 431
"But you still have a fever..."
Before the maid's words were finished, the rhythmic sound of hooves came from the street. The maid and Hong Wanqing turned back together. Hong Wanqing saw the person coming and said in surprise, "Dudu Lu..."
Lu Heng pulled his horse and stopped at the door, without even looking at Hong Wanqing, he handed the reins to the attendant and walked into the mansion. Hong Wanqing was ready to talk, but when she saw that Lu Heng completely regarded her as nothing, she couldn't help worrying, not caring about the woman's restraint and chasing after her: "Commander Lu, my concubine is the wife of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, the Hong family, I implore the commander-in-chief help!"
Lu Heng lifted his clothes and walked up the steps, and said with a smile, "It turned out to be Mrs. Fu. There are many people in the world who want to ask me for help. Who are you?"
Hong Wanqing groaned in her heart. Before she came, she thought that Lu Heng might not be good at speaking, but every time she saw Lu Heng, he always moved forward and back with a small smile. Hong Wanqing thought that maybe he was not bad as rumored. How to get along.
Wang Yanqing has been by Fu Tingzhou's side for so long, and his body may not be innocent. Lu Heng is still willing to marry Wang Yanqing as his wife, and he has been married for many years without taking a concubine. Such a person should be very soft-hearted towards women.
But when Lu Heng came up, he didn't show any face at all. When Hong Wanqing was told "Who are you" in person, he couldn't hang on his face. She bit her lip hard, resisting the woman's shyness, and continued to chase after her: "I heard that Governor Lu had investigated the injustice for the victims within three days, and even a civilian governor who had never met before was willing to lend a helping hand, which shows that the governor is a just man and speaks with justice. Concubine. The identity of the body is not worth mentioning, but the concubine's family has been wronged, and I hope the governor will do justice for the concubine."
Lu Heng laughed. He walked up the highest steps, put down the hem of his clothes, and looked back at Hong Wanqing with a very strange look: "I have been an official for so many years, and this is the first time I have heard people say that I am fair. This kind of look is far worse than that of the Marquis of Zhenyuan and Marquis Yongping."
After Lu Heng finished speaking, he was about to enter the door. Hong Wanqing did not expect that he would not eat hard and soft, so he hurriedly said: "If Governor Lu is willing to help, the concubine is willing to hand over all the family wealth to thank Governor Gao Yi."
"Do you think I'm short of your money?" Lu Heng snorted lightly, his words full of disdain, "Besides, have you become the master?"
Hong Wanqing was speechless. Lu Heng had grown steadily over the years. He held great power and was not polite to collect money. People in the capital didn't even know how much money he had. It is not surprising that Lu Heng did not look down on the savings of the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion and Yongping Marquis Mansion.
Moreover, Hong Wanqing really couldn't be the master of the Fu family and the Hong family.
All the tricks Hong Wanqing prepared failed, she gritted her teeth, and suddenly knelt with her skirt up. Everyone was startled by her actions, and the maid rushed up to hold Hong Wanqing's arm: "Mrs. Hou, what are you doing?"
Lu Heng was also surprised by her actions for a moment, and finally turned around and took a look at Hong Wanqing. Hong Wanqing knelt on her knees, straightened her waist and said, "Marquis Wuding and Marquis Zhenyuan are both wronged. They are military generals who serve the country and should not be insulted by trumped-up charges. My concubine knows that the governor has no obligation to help us. , but the concubine has no choice but to ask the governor for help. If the governor doubts the sincerity of the concubine, and the concubine wishes to kneel here, please forgive me!"
Lu Heng looked down at her and smiled. He had been laughing all the time. This smile was very slight, but it suddenly made Hong Wanqing feel a sense of danger.
Lu Heng said, "Mrs. Fu wants to threaten me with her illness? Then you must have recognized the wrong person. Try your best to see if I will frown if you kneel to death here."
After finishing speaking, Lu Heng lifted his clothes and walked towards the door, his voice cold and ruthless: "Lu Mou hates some people who don't know what's good or bad. You have to kneel on the street and don't dirty the door of my Lu residence."
The gate of Lu Mansion closed in front of Hong Wanqing, and the guard at the gate stepped forward, stretched out his hand and said, "Mrs. Fu, please."
It's obvious what they mean, go by yourself or be dragged out by them.
Hong Wanqing lowers her self-esteem again, this face is still needed. She bit her lip hard and got up, walked to the steps of Lu Mansion, and knelt down again.
As long as she can save her mother's family and her husband's family, what kind of humiliation is she?
The sun was still bright during the day, but suddenly the wind picked up in the evening. Muffled thunder rumbled in the sky, and after a while, heavy rain poured down.
The rain in the capital is not as good as that in the south of the Yangtze River. They didn't bring umbrellas when they went out, and the maid vainly helped Hong Wanqing cover the rain with her hands, and said, "Mrs. Hou, will the rain stop for a while, you still have a fever, why don't we go back first! "
Fever is not a minor illness, how many people are burnt away in one burn. Hong Wanqing was still kneeling in the rain with a sickness, it was a life-threatening situation.
Hong Wanqing wanted to leave for a long time. She was pampered. The heaviest thing she had ever held was a needle. How could she stand kneeling in the rain? But she was betting that Lu Heng couldn't really watch her die at his doorstep. As long as Lu Heng is loose, she will have a chance.
Hong Wanqing gritted her teeth and refused to leave. After the rain, the sky quickly darkened, and the surroundings became boundless darkness. There was a heavy rain in the sky and the cold wind was blowing. Except for the sound of the rain, there was no other sound. Even the guards guarding the door went inside to hide from the rain.
It seems that there is only Hong Wanqing left in the world. Soon, Hong Wanqing couldn't even hear the voice of the maid, she fell to the ground with a thud, her whole body twitching. The maid was frightened, and quickly knelt down to Hong Wanqing's side to help: "Mrs. Hou, what's the matter with you?"
