Chapter 1353: Side Story: Having the Whole World in View (30)
Lu Deyin hesitated for a long time before finally asking a loyal servant to secretly send a letter to Qi Wenjin for help. Though she did not know what her uncle was planning, she was certain that he would not let her and her brother off.
When Qi Wenjin received the letter, the corners of his lips could not help but curl up. He stopped the guard who was about to leave with the things. "Give it to me. I’ll send them over personally."
The guard paused in surprise and quickly handed over the things he was carrying to his master.
Since Qi Wenjin dared to send Lu Jiashu to school at this time, he was naturally fully prepared to provoke Eldest Master Lu.
He had gathered all this evidence over the past two months.
The mountain bandits who had been sent to the Ministry of Justice had "died" not long after he left. Those people had indeed never seen the person who had bribed them, so they were not very useful. However, it was different for the people who had been sent to kill them. By tracking those killers, they managed to gather quite a lot of evidence.
As the Lu family did not have much power in the capital, he could transfer the "dead" mountain bandits to the prison of the Court of Judicial Review without alerting the mastermind.
Although two months was not enough for him to investigate everything, the evidence in his hands was enough to let Eldest Master Lu die twice over.
Qi Wenjin had wanted to secretly threaten the other party to make him behave, only dealing with this matter after he got married. However, he did not expect his future wife, who had been avoiding him, to send this message over. This was an excellent opportunity for him.
Although Qi Wenjin had never learned how to woo a girl from his father, he knew that this was the best time to nurture their relationship.
Hence, Qi Wenjin secretly ran into her room.
Lu Deyin asked the servant girls to leave. When she turned around, she saw a tall man standing behind her and gazing at her gently.
