Chapter 524: It's Really the Duke's Mansion
"You don't dare, Guo Ermeng, you don't dare, you are just a running dog, a running dog with a ruthless heart and a bad conscience, who deserves to die."
Guo Ermeng didn't know whether it was because of the cold or because he was irritated by Lu Shian's words, he kept shaking and one could even feel that he was unconscious.
"Guo Ermeng."
Lu Shian suddenly raised his voice: "Do you remember what I said?"
Guo Ermeng's name was suddenly called, and he looked at Lu Shian blankly.
Lu Shian said: "I will put down your tongue and let you see with your own eyes that he was eaten by wild dogs."
"Boom"
Guo Ermeng could no longer bear it and fell down, fainting again.
Lu Shian shook his head helplessly: "Hey, let's drag him away first. We can't let him die. He still has great use."
He knew at a glance that Lu Shian was pretending to be a young lady from the Duke's Mansion, which meant that he had met someone from the Duke's Mansion, and it was even possible that the person behind him was from the Duke's Mansion.
Although Lu Shian wanted to kill him right now, he still had some use for himself.
Lu Shian picked up the teacup and took a sip. The bearded man had already led the men back to the main hall.
Shen Cuo said, "Guo Ermeng has explained everything clearly just now. Whether it is true or not is still unknown. Now the Queen wants to use you to verify the truth of his words."
Hearing Shen Cuo's words, a dozen big men looked at each other in surprise.
Lu Shian put down what he was holding and asked calmly, "Who has seen anyone from the Duke's Mansion?"
More than a dozen big men looked at each other, and finally the big man with missing teeth took a timid step forward.
"In reply to your Majesty, I have met the steward of the Duke's Mansion."
Wow, it really is the Duke’s Mansion.
Lu Shian gave Shen Cuo a look, and Shen Cuo waved his hand and said, "Everyone else go down, you stay."
Lu Shian: "Tell me what you saw."
The big man nodded and told what he saw: "In fact, I don't know who he is. It was Guo Ermeng who said the wrong thing after drinking. I, I, only then knew that the man was the steward of the Duke's Mansion."
"What is the housekeeper of the Duke's Mansion doing here?"
The big man stopped talking and just stared at Lu Shian.
"Why don't you speak?"
"Your Majesty, I want to ask you to spare my life. My family is counting on me."
"I can spare your life."
Hearing that Lu Shian had promised to remove Chengruo, the big man was overjoyed. He continued, "The housekeeper of the Duke's Mansion will come every once in a while, and Guo Ermeng will hand over the money he earned during that period. If there are any beautiful women, he will also let him take them back with him."
"anything else?"
The big man shook his head: "I don't know anything else."
"Then do you know when the butler will come next time?"
The big man shook his head: "Guo Ermeng will not tell us about this kind of thing, but his elder brother Guo Daming should know."
Lu Shian and Shen Cuo looked at each other.
Shen Cuo asked: "Do you know where this Guo Dameng is now?"
"We should be in the casino now."
"But he will come here at night, and the girls they catch will be sent here first."
Lu Shian: "Are you saying there are other girls imprisoned here?"
The big man nodded: "Yes, in the dungeon."
Lu Shian said: "Then go and release the person first."
The big man hesitated again: "Okay, but..."
"Just what?"
"However, only the Guo brothers have this key."
Shen Cuo waved his hand: "You go down first."
When the big man heard that he could leave, he kowtowed to Lu Shian happily.
After everyone left, Lu Shian asked Shen Cuo: "Have you been following me?"
"I am following orders."
"Luckily you came, otherwise I would be in trouble today."
"Your Majesty is extremely intelligent. Even if I don't come, you will still be able to deal with it."
Lu Shian was a little uncomfortable with Shen Cuo talking to him in such a strict manner, but then he thought about the change in their identities and it was impossible for them to be the same as before.
"Please Sir Shen, please arrest Guo Dameng."
Shen Cuo added: "I thought since he will come at night, we might as well catch him in a jar, so as not to alert him."
Lu Shian nodded: "Master Shen, just follow the arrangements."
"Your Majesty, please return to the palace."
Lu Shian nodded: "I'll leave this to you."
Although Chen'er has a wet nurse, she still wants to go back to see her. She has been out for a whole day, and Chen'er must miss her.
This was the first time she had been separated from him for such a long time since Chen'er was born.
"I will send someone to escort the queen back."
Lu Shian did not refuse. It was already late and she had to go back as soon as possible.
When Lu Shian returned to Ganquan Palace, the palace was in chaos. Everyone was sweating profusely and anxious, but they couldn't coax Chen'er.
Lu Shian didn't bother to take off his heavy clothes, and quickly hugged Chen'er in his arms.
"Mother is here, mother is here, don't cry, don't cry..."
Hearing the familiar voice and smelling the familiar smell, Chen'er slowly stopped crying.
Lu Shian dismissed his attendants, lifted up her clothes and fed the baby.
She has squeezed it several times today, but squeezing can't solve the problem. She still feels swollen and uncomfortable. After all, she is not as strong as the little one.
He was full, and Lu Shian didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore.
Looking at Chen'er sleeping soundly in his arms, Lu Shian was reluctant to let go.
Lu'er came over and called softly, "My Lady."
Lu Shian made a gesture to her to keep quiet, and then reluctantly put Chen'er into his bed.
After carefully tucking the quilt for him, Lu Shian and Lu'er went to the outer room.
"My queen, I heard what happened today from Que'er. Please let me go with you tomorrow."
Lu Shian looked back at the direction of the bed. Seeing Chen'er crying so sadly today, her heart was broken.
She is really not a competent mother. How old is he?
How could I bear to leave him alone in the palace?
Lu'er followed her gaze and said softly, "The little prince is still too young, Madam, are you worried about him?"
Lu Shian nodded: "I only thought about how to get things done, but ignored my son..."
"Then what do you plan to do?"
Lu Shian sighed and sat down quietly next to the chair: "If he were older, I could take him with me, but he is still so young..."
She couldn't bear to take a baby who was less than two months old out to suffer in the cold winter. What if he got frozen by accident?
"The little prince cried so much today that his voice became hoarse."
After hearing this, Lu Shian felt distressed and blamed himself.
"Let me think about it. Let me think about what I should do."
It is impossible to interrupt what I have promised to the Emperor.
It is impossible for her to ignore her own son, but she needs to think carefully about how to do it.
