Lu Wanning ignored Zi Fu's expression, snorted coldly, and continued: "Although Zhang County is a bit far away from the capital, you said that if Zhongyong Hou Mansion sends a letter to the magistrate of Zhang County, asking him to help 'take care of it'

Is your family in trouble?"

How could it be troublesome? Their family is just an ordinary farmer's family. If Zhongyong Hou Mansion doesn't want her family to have an easy time, they can tell the county magistrate, and the county magistrate will kill her family members by pinning her family with any crime.

Their family doesn't have much connections or background, so even if they want to complain, they will have nowhere to go.

Although Zheng Jieyu promised to protect their family, she failed to do so. Zheng Jieyu would probably not take care of her. Even if Zheng Jieyu was willing to take care of her, how could the Zheng family belong to Zhongyong Houdu?

Where is the opponent?

She was dazzled by the benefits promised by Zheng Jieyu, thinking that if Zheng Jieyu could really give her family a shop and a thousand taels of silver, then her brother would not have to worry about getting a wife in the future, and their family would be able to

She had no worries about food and clothing, but she forgot to think about what she would do if she was discovered?

No, in fact, Zheng Jieyu told her what to do if she was discovered? If she was discovered, as long as she said nothing and kept her mouth shut forever, her family could still live a prosperous life.

But she didn't expect that Lu Meiren was smarter than she thought, and also more cruel than she thought. She had no intention of letting her family go.

Zifu was silent for a long time, then looked up at Lu Wanning and asked, "What do you want to do to let my family go?"

Lu Wanning sneered: "Why should I let you go, my family? Since you want to harm me for them, then you and your family will naturally have to suffer the consequences when the matter is exposed."

Zifu kowtowed deeply to Lu Wanning several times. While kowtowing, she begged Lu Wanning: "Slave, lard has deceived my heart, so I betrayed my master. Please forgive me for the sake of my family's ignorance."

Take their lives."

"Ignorant?" Lu Wanning snorted coldly, "Do you think ignorance means innocence? Since they have vested interests, they are not innocent. You must know that it's not that I don't want to let them go, but your greed that harmed them.

They ended up not having a good death because of your involvement."

"I think even if they want to complain, they will only blame you. I wonder if they will blame you for killing them when they get underground."

"Gag her mouth and send her to the inner court prison." Lu Wanning thought for a while and ordered Zhou Man in a cold voice.

Zhou Man glanced at Zifu, who was speechless and anxious, and hesitantly asked Lu Wanning: "Master, what if someone from the inner court asks this villain about her guilt for the crime she committed?"

After all, Zifu is a member of her Linglong Pavilion. If Zheng Jieyu says that she was jealous of her and allowed her maid to slander her, she will be in trouble.

"Yes, Master." Zhou Man nodded and escorted Zi Fu to the inner court prison.

Moreover, Zheng Jieyu swore at that time that if she failed to agree to her request, she would be struck by lightning and die.

When the palace and eunuchs heard Zhou Man say that Lu Wanning was kind-hearted and sent him to the inner court prison, they almost couldn't hold back the smiles on their faces.

"Atoning for your sins with your merits?" Lu Wan raised your eyebrows slightly and said calmly: "How are you going to atone for your sins with your merits?"

Zi Fu regretted her original decision. She kept crying with red eyes, "Master, please, everything is your own decision. Your family doesn't know anything. It was your mistake. I am willing to atone for your sins. Please

Master, please let this slave’s family go.”

Since Zifu has no evidence that can identify Zheng Jieyu, if Zifu goes to tell the emperor and the empress that Zheng Jieyu framed her, she will probably get bitten by Zheng Jieyu.

She herself also thought that the Zheng family was one of the richest families in the world. It was impossible that they would not insist on asking for a token from Zheng Jieyu without the promise of a shop and a thousand taels of silver.

Lu Wanning said quietly: "Just steal."

"Master..." Zi Fu heard this and continued to beg Lu Wanning to let her family go. However, Zhou Man had already stuffed the rag into her mouth with quick eyes and hands.

Zheng Jieyu also said that if she was given a token, if she was accidentally discovered by someone, neither she nor she would end well. Not giving her a token was also to prevent her from being discovered before she had done anything.

.

Lan Xin had always been paying attention to Linglong Pavilion, so she knew immediately that Zhou Man had escorted Zi Fu to the Inner Prison.

Zi Fu couldn't wait to say: "This slave can go and tell the Queen and the Emperor that this slave was ordered by Zheng Jieyu to frame the master."

Occasionally I met familiar palace maids and eunuchs on the road, and asked Zifu what mistake she had made. Zhou Man also said bluntly: "This bitch actually stole the master's things while he was away. I didn't want to be caught. The master is kind.

Instead of putting her to death, let me send her to the inner court prison."

Hearing this, Lu Wanning laughed twice, "Haha..." After laughing, Lu Wanning asked Zifu: "You said you could tell the emperor and the queen that they were ordered by Zheng Jieyu to frame me. What do you mean by that?

Evidence? Did Zheng Jieyu give you a token or a written document?"

It is said that once you enter the Inner Prison, you will simply have no chance of survival or death.

Lu Wanning had already guessed that Zheng Jieyu could not leave any clue in Zi Fu's hands. Seeing Zi Fu freeze there, she knew that her guess was right.

Zifu froze when she heard this. How could Zheng Jieyu give her this? At that time, she also asked Zheng Jieyu for a token, but Zheng Jieyu dismissed her with a few words.

No one in the palace knew how terrifying the Inner Prison was. Those palace officials and eunuchs who had made mistakes would rather die than go to the Inner Prison.

At that time, Zheng Jieyu said that her Zheng family was so rich, how could they care about the three melons and two dates promised to her? The little things that the Zheng family could slip through their fingers were much more than what was promised to her family.

.

After learning about it, she quickly reported the matter to Zheng Jieyu.

Zheng Jieyu was lying on the bed. After hearing Lan Xin say that Zhou Man had sent people to the inner court prison on charges of stealing, she shook her head and said with some disappointment: "Beautiful Lu seems to be more difficult to deal with than I thought.

."

Lan Xin was afraid that Zheng Jieyu would be angry, so she hurriedly said: "I think Zifu is still too incompetent. If she can get rid of the veil, the one who will be sent to the inner court prison may be Lu Meiren herself."

Zheng Jieyu said nothing, she was not actually angry. Although she was a little disappointed that she could not take this opportunity to get rid of Lu Wanning, getting rid of Lu Meiren this time was not her main purpose.
