Chapter 144: Unable to Speak
Between the lines of those letters, Lu Jingming complained about the emperor's meanness and ingratitude.
He said that he had many talents, but because the emperor was afraid of him, he had to return his military power, protect himself, and stay in a remote county as a minor official.
The emperor was already very suspicious of the Lu family. After seeing the dragon robe and the letter, he was furious. He took the opportunity to deal with the Lu family and put them all in death row.
However, because Lu Ziqian had just made a great contribution, he did not vent his anger on him.
Lu Ziqian wanted to make a contribution by saving people, but died tragically on the battlefield.
The more Su Yujiao thought about it, the more anxious she became. If she couldn't stop it today, the Lu family would be doomed.
She had almost no hesitation and just wanted to stop this catastrophic disaster as soon as possible.
For both public and private reasons, and for both emotional and logical reasons, she will not stand idly by.
Su Yujiao ran all the way, thinking about how to stop this crisis.
The wedding procession was about to arrive at the Lu family's door, and she didn't have much time left.
Once Chen Yunniang's dowry is brought in, it will be hard to explain what will happen.
"Mo Shu Mo Hua, come out." She shouted behind her.
She thought Lu Ziqian would have someone follow her secretly, even if it wasn't Mo Shu Mo Hua, it would be someone else.
Mo Shu soon appeared behind her, but Mo Hua did not show up.
Su Yujiao saw Mo Shu and said excitedly: "Quick, find a way to stop the wedding procession."
"Why?"
Su Yujiao pointed at the long row of dowry carts, leaned closer to Mo Shu, and whispered, "There's a dragon robe hidden inside, and someone wants to frame the Lu family."
"Young Madam, I can't hear you clearly."
Su Yujiao raised her voice a little, but Mo Shu still said he couldn't hear clearly.
Su Yujiao frowned: "You did it on purpose, how could you not hear clearly, can you hear this sentence clearly?"
Mo Shu clasped his fists and apologized: "Young Madam, I really couldn't hear what you just said. Could you please say it again?"
Su Yujiao was extremely anxious as she watched the wedding procession gradually moving away. How could someone shout about such a thing in the street?
"Oh, forget it if you can't hear clearly. Find a way to stop the wedding procession and delay it as much as possible."
"Don't ask, just do it!"
Mo Shu hesitated for a moment, but decided to do as he was told.
After Su Yujiao left, Mo Hua appeared: "Does she want to ruin this marriage?"
Mo Shu also had such doubts, but when he thought of Su Yujiao's anxious look just now, he felt that she was not trying to ruin the marriage.
There must be something urgent!
"Do as you are told."
"Find a way to stop the wedding procession."
"I'll go up front and make arrangements."
Mo Hua was still a little hesitant: "Should I go back and report to the master?"
"The young lady said it was an emergency, so let's do it first."
"Ah."
Mo Hua went to the money shop to exchange a bag of copper coins and scattered them in front of the wedding procession. A group of people swarmed over and stopped the wedding procession in an instant.
At the beginning, the wedding procession was not driven away. Weddings should be lively and the more people join in the fun, the more blessings there will be for the newlyweds.
Afterwards, Mo Hua continued to scatter peanuts, dates and wedding candies, which made the onlookers so happy that the streets were blocked.
Mo Shu went to the next intersection and dumped several trucks of manure on the street, evenly spreading across the entire street, leaving no space for footing. The area was filled with a foul smell, which attracted a wave of abuse.
The wedding procession finally crossed the Copper Coin Road and Wedding Candy Road and arrived at the Dung Road.
"What's going on? Why is there shit on the road?"
"Just now, a few manure-composting carts passed by here, and the drivers started fighting for some unknown reason."
"Several manure-composting trucks were also knocked over, which blocked the road."
"You'd better take a detour. It will take a while to clean up here."
"Yes, yes. It's unlucky to get covered in shit on a happy occasion."
The wedding procession was disgusted. Even if it was auspicious, they didn't want to be covered in feces.
"General, how can this be good?"
Lu Ziqian was dressed in red and riding on a tall horse. He saw Su Yujiao talking to Mo Shu just now.
After that, there were incidents of scattering money from ink paintings and throwing feces from ink calligraphy.
I guess Jiaojiao was feeling unhappy and was making trouble on purpose.
As long as she felt better, he would let her do as she pleased.
"Detour!"
The housekeeper wondered if he had missed the auspicious time, but he said nothing.
Anyway, this marriage was forced by Chen Yunniang, and no one in the Lu family was truly happy about it.
It’s delayed, so be it. No one in the Lu family cares.
As for Chen Yunniang, who cares about her!
It’s better to delay death!
So, the housekeeper actually understood the hint and led the wedding party to take the most remote and longest route, a detour.
Seeing that things were not going well today and that she had to take a detour to a remote path, Chen Yunniang felt anxious and nervous.
Nothing will happen, right?
The box contained the dragon robe. If she was discovered along the way, even the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom would not be able to protect her.
But at this moment, she was sitting in the sedan chair and could not change anything. She couldn't let everyone step over the pile of manure.
Su Yujiao ran back to the general's mansion exhausted. Today was Lu Ziqian's wedding, and her father-in-law Lu Jingming had also returned.
Zhou and Lu Jingming saw Su Yujiao rushing into the wedding hall breathlessly, and immediately came over to ask what was going on. She was rarely so anxious.
"Father and mother, we can't get married today."
The two elders looked at each other, Lu Jingming sighed, and Zhou Shi spoke to comfort them: "Jiaojiao, mother knows you are not feeling well and does not want to facilitate this marriage."
"But this is a marriage granted by the Emperor, no one can change it."
"The Emperor and Empress will come to watch the ceremony in person soon. You must not offend His Majesty."
"If you anger His Majesty, the consequences will be disastrous."
Su Yujiao knew that they had misunderstood her, and she had no time to be jealous now.
"Dad, please come to the study with your daughter-in-law. I have something important to tell you."
Lu Jingming nodded, and the two went to the study together.
When Su Yujiao arrived at the study, she looked around and asked, "Dad, does your study have any secret rooms or compartments?"
"what?"
"Jiaojiao, what did you say? Daddy can't hear me clearly."
Su Yujiao's face changed. What happened?
Why can't anyone hear her?
She repeated it again, raising her voice and speaking slowly, but Lu Jingming still couldn't hear clearly.
Su Yujiao simply walked to the desk and prepared to write it down, but her pen broke.
She changed to another pen, but the words she wrote were smudged by the ink and turned into big black spots.
She stared at the large ink spot on the paper and muttered to herself, “How could this happen?
Can’t speak it or write it?
Is she restricted by the plot?
As a character in the book, even if she knew the plot, she couldn't change the direction?
"Dad, did you really not hear what I just said?"
"Jiaojiao, why are you acting so weird today?"
Su Yujiao did not give up. She used the same pen and paper as before and wrote that she was thirsty, and it showed clearly.
Although Lu Jingming thought she was acting strangely today, he still personally poured her a glass of water.
He had heard about everything between her and Lu Ziqian from his wife. Could it be that this girl had gone insane because of anger?
