"Oh? Why go to yamen?"

    Xia Han looks at her, her tone is still patient, but her smile is much lighter in her eyes.

    For such a pair of eyes that seemed to be the same as usual, somehow, LV suddenly regretted mentioning it.

    But it has already started and can only go on.

    Moreover, her understanding husband will not blame her - her husband will never be angry when she occasionally does something wrong on weekdays, not to mention that she is thinking about him this time.

    Thinking like this, LV had enough confidence in her heart, looked at her husband and said, "I went to see Xu Ying. I wanted to persuade her to change her mouth in front of others and return the second master''s innocence... But she didn''t know how to repent and refused to listen to advice."

    Although the public opinion outside has changed, many people still hold a wait-and-see attitude because of Xu Ying''s persistence.

    She thought that if Xu Ying came forward to clarify the matter one day earlier, she could eliminate the negative speculation among the population one day earlier.

    "Did you go to see Xu Ying?"

    Xia Han''s tone was a little cold, and she looked at her eyes mockingly and puzzled.

    Why didn''t he find his wife so self assertive?

    Besides, persuade Xu Ying to change her mouth?

    Such a stupid idea, but also thanks to her can think of it.

    Lu Shi was disturbed by his eyes, but he could only nod: "yes..."

    "Who allowed you to see her?"

    Xia Han smiled inexplicably: "the truth of this matter will be revealed after the review. What''s the difference between you going to see her with so many things and being guilty of being a thief? How will you treat this matter in the eyes of outsiders? Have you ever thought about the troubles that may be brought?"

    "Second master, I......"

    Lu Shi was startled by his successive questions with a somewhat aggressive feeling, opened his mouth, couldn''t speak for a while, and subconsciously stepped back two steps.

    Xia Han approached her, and her tall figure cast a shadow over her.

    Lu Shi slightly grasped his sleeve and felt as if he had been strangled by someone.

    Xia Han looked at her for a moment and asked in a low voice, "what did Xu Ying tell you?"

    He doesn''t want others to know. If someone dares to break through his boundaries to inquire, he will never tolerate it.

    "What... She didn''t say anything, she just said... She wanted justice..." Lv''s body was tight and didn''t dare to mention Xu Su with her husband at all.

    Xia Han stared at her with a condescending examination.

    Lu Shi almost dared not move.

    She couldn''t tell why she was so afraid. It was clear that her husband looked calm and didn''t see anger

    But it made her feel... The man in front of her at this time was like two very different people from the husband she knew!

    "Second master, what''s the matter..."

    Lu Shi felt that he was about to suffocate. He smiled reluctantly and summoned up the courage to ask.

    The examination in Xia Han''s eyes slowly disappeared.

    "Nothing, just too tired these two days."

    He had thought that Xu Ying had been rescued and that the accident could be easily corrected. As long as everything was carried out according to his plan, it would not affect his life.

    But today in the Imperial Academy, he still experienced too many obscure eyes.

    For a long time, he has divided his life into two. On the face of it, he has done everything that the second childe of the Xia family should do well. Without any defect, he has always received the respect and envy of everyone.

    In the dark, he just wants to do what he really wants to do.

    But now, this clear boundary has been suddenly broken and confused!

    This uncontrollable feeling made him very upset, and he couldn''t even calm down and continue to do what the "second childe of the Xia family" should do.

    Especially now, he suddenly learned that even his obedient wife began to make trouble for him wisely, and even heard something she shouldn''t know from Xu Ying——

    Everything seems to be getting out of control.

    Xia Han''s mood surged in her heart, but his wife seemed a little frightened before meeting. She looked down and stayed in her bulging abdomen for a moment, so she raised her hand, gently held her shoulder and smiled at her.

    The smile is far from the bottom of your eyes.

    "Yao''er, it''s up to the government to deal with these things. You''re still pregnant. Why don''t you relax and give birth to your body - be obedient, okay?"

    Lu Shi nodded his head as naturally as possible, as if he could do everything as usual.

    She smiled reluctantly, stretched out her hand and gently held her husband''s arm: "since the second master is tired, why don''t I serve the second master and have a rest earlier?"

    Xia Han took out her arm and said, "give these things to the servant girl."

    LV Shi was stunned for a moment and hurriedly called his personal servant girl to come in and wait for him to change clothes.

    After Xia Han rested, she went to the outside and sat down. She took the warm tea from the servant girl and found that her fingers were trembling gently.

    After eating all the tea, Lu''s face gradually returned to normal.

    But the heart is getting more and more confused, and Xu Ying''s words are constantly echoing in her mind.

    Why is her husband so upset because she went to see Xu Ying?

    Just think she''s busy?

    Or... Don''t you want her to know about Xu Su?

    She is not a person who can''t rub the sand in her eyes, but her husband''s abnormality is really too obvious. What''s more... Her husband''s reaction tonight makes her fully realize that she is probably just a substitute for Xu su.

    Can a substitute really last long?

    Xu su... Will you come back?

    More and more thoughts made Lu fall into great reluctance and uneasiness.

    No, she can''t accept everything so passively

    She must find out the cause and effect of Xu Su''s case before she can deal with it!

    Lu sat in the hall for a long time until she was sure that her husband had fallen asleep.

    The personal servant girl hurriedly followed and whispered, "when does the young grandmother order the slaves to do it..."

    "No, I can''t sleep. Go to the second master''s study and pick up some books to read."

    The servant girl quickly stepped into the study and lit the light.

    The wind outside the room was strong, and the servant girl closed the door.

    Lu pretended to pick up a few books and held them in his arms, but his other hand quietly pushed away the hidden mechanism behind the bookshelf.

    This dark space was discovered by her earlier.

    There''s a box in there.

    She thought the box contained some secret letters and other things, but when she opened it, she found that it was not so

    At this time, she took her nervous and trembling hand and opened the box again.

    Sure enough, the thing is still there

    After confirmation, LV quickly closed the box and put it back.

    She sat in her study and read history books for half an hour, but there were few words she really read.

    He got up and put the book back. After LV left the study, he explained to the servant girl, "don''t mention that I came to the study with the second master."

    The servant girl didn''t know why, but she nodded immediately.

    After his death, the lamp in the study was extinguished. LV looked back and had made a decision in his heart.

    Tomorrow, she''s going somewhere.

    ……

    It was late at night.

    Listening to the even snoring of the woman outside, Xu Ying closed her eyes and was going to sleep.

    At this time, the sound of very light and fast footsteps came into my ears.

    She suddenly opened her eyes and subconsciously felt for the copper hairpin under the pillow.
