Chapter 410
Old Mrs Ling finally got to the point: “Speaking of which, it’s been half a month since Wei Yan returned to the palace!
I also don’t know if he has mentioned the Lu family in front of the Emperor”
She waited blearily for good news every day, waiting day by day with great anxiety
Ling Jingshu had expected Old Madam Ling to ask this question and smiled, “Grandmother, don’t be anxious
This is a big deal, we have to find the right opportunity to plead for leniency
Rashly open your mouth, I’m afraid it will cause the Emperor to be jealous of dislike, but not good
Wei Yan has promised to do his best, and will never stand idly by”
Anyway, Wei Yan is in the palace, in the end there is no private plea to the emperor, who does not know
Casually saying a few words to perfume Old Mrs Ling, Ling Jingshu did not feel guilty at all
She and the Lu family have an undeniable grudge, wishing that the Ling family would never turn over, how could she have the heart to save her?
In the letter she wrote to Wei Yan before, she had also made her feelings clear
Wei Yan is also a master of theater, the last time to the Ling residence to a trip, a statement will be Ling old lady coaxed convinced
Sure enough, Ling old lady’s expression eased some: “I was too anxious
Wei Yan also said that this matter is not easy, let us patiently wait for news
It’s only been half a month and I’m anxious and anxious, it’s really not like that”Concern is messy, grandmother is also worried about auntie”
Ling Jingshu kindly picked up the conversation, “It’s a good thing that I used silver to buy the people in the heavenly prison to take care of auntie more some days ago, so she won’t suffer too much”
Old Mrs Ling couldn’t help but let out a long sigh as she thought of her daughter who was locked up in a jail without seeing the light of day
As long as she could save her daughter’s life, she would not hesitate to spend even more silver!
In the capital, the Ministry of Justice’s Heavenly Prison, the detainees are all felons and important criminals
The Lu family of more than a hundred people, are all locked up in the dungeon
Men and women are held in two separate places
Not a big cell, there are more than a dozen people incarcerated
The female members of the Lu family occupied a total of three such cells, and of course, Ling was among them
The sky dungeon was dimly lit and not very ventilated
The prisoners in the cell did not have any treatment such as bathing and dressing
Everyone’s hair was unkempt and their bodies emitted an extremely unpleasant odor
Ling, who used to like cleanliness the most, was sitting on the ground with a blank look on her face and a dull gaze
The news of Lu Hong’s accident spread back to Jizhou, Lu An was heartbroken, Ling’s surface pretending to be sad, but secretly happy in her heart
Lu Hong went into the temple and became a monk, Lu family house will only have Lu Qian as the first son
In the future, the Lu family’s business will be Lu Qian’s as well
Unexpectedly, before she could be happy for two years, the Lu family’s sky collapsed!
I blame Lu Ping!
Delusional from the dragon’s merit, dared to get involved in the assassination of the emperor prince
The Lu family was implicated by Lu Ping and became prisoners overnight
Being locked up in the heavenly prison, not seeing the sun, the whole person also began to become muddled
Time passed a few days or ten days or a month
Ling could not remember much
All she could think about was Lu Qian
Lu Ping was the culprit and could not escape death
Lu An was Lu Ping’s elder brother and the patriarch of the Lu family, and his chances of surviving were also slim
But her son was innocent
He was still only fifteen years old, he hadn’t had time to start a family and have children, he was still a young boy who didn’t understand things!
Ling’s tears fell
Her weeping did not attract any attention
These days were like hell for all the women of the Lu family
The despair of not being able to keep their heads above water and the fear of not knowing what the future held for them tormented them day and night
Every day, someone broke down and cried
Hearing Ling’s cries, someone soon followed suit
A sturdy cell head walked over, followed by two cell guards carrying food
The head of the cell had a fierce look on his face and cursed angrily at the top of his voice: “Crying is forbidden in the Heavenly Prison
Whoever dares to howl again will not eat today”
Two short sentences immediately silenced everyone
The heavens are large, but the stomach is the largest
It is better to die than to live, and as long as one lives, one cannot live without eating
The jailer was satisfied when he saw that everyone was quiet and honest
The jailer unlocked the chains and carried the food in
Each person a bowl of gruel that can see the shadow of a person plus a steamed bun that smells of mold
It is impossible to get enough to eat, barely maintaining half full, not being starved to death
When the meals were all distributed, the jailer took another food box alone and put it in front of Ling
The porridge in that food box was much thicker, there were two steamed buns, made of white flour, no moldy smell, and there was also a dish of pickles and a dish of greens
In previous days, such a meal would have been disliked by even the little maid beside Ling
Now it drew the envy of the crowd
After the jailer left, someone said sourly, “Still, sister-in-law is the most fortunate
After entering the Heavenly Prison, she still has her mother’s family to take care of her
Spending a large amount of silver, so that sister-in-law can eat white flour buns and salted vegetables every meal, and occasionally see meat and fish”
The one who spoke was a female member of the Lu family’s third house
Ling ignored them, burying her head and eating all the meals cleanly
Her mother’s family hadn’t forgotten her, and would definitely rescue her out!
They would also rescue her son as well!
Until then, she had to live well and not trash her body
Not only Ling’s, the other side of the cell, Lu An Lu Qian father and son’s meals are also specially “care”
Handsome and suave Lu An, these days have been tossed to describe thin, woeful, gloomy
He took the steamed bread, a long time to send to his mouth, barely ate a mouthful, but as chewing wax, no flavor
Used a lot of strength, just barely swallowed
A person waiting to die, the only thing left in his heart is boundless despair
Not to mention the steamed bread, now it is a mountain of food is also difficult to swallow
Lu Qian wasn’t much better, and after hastily eating a few bites, he huddled his body in the corner
When no one was looking, Lu Qian’s expression was so complicated and painful to cry
In his previous life, the Lu family had successfully climbed up to Princess Changping and King Yan
Until the moment of his death, it was extremely scenic
In this life, there were many things that had changed
Lu Hong and Princess Changping’s affair was exposed
Princess Changping killed Xu extra horse harnessed by the side of a team and was imprisoned in Ciyunan
Lu Hong left his home “by order”
The King of Yan has lost the battle for the throne
Now, even his second uncle is involved, and all of the Lu family is in the Heavenly Prison
Everything was different from the previous life!
The only thing that had changed was Ling Jingshu
He didn’t know how on earth she, a weak woman, had managed to do all this
There was clearly her shadow behind all of this
Ah Shu, do you hate the Lu family that much?
Do you hate the Lu family so much that you want to see all of them die?
Do you hate me so much that you don’t want to see me anymore?
Lu Qian closed her eyes and two lines of tears slowly slid down
