Chapter 1360: Side Story: Follow-up of the Lu Family (2)
Fourth Master Lu was not willing to take out the evidence at this time because he knew that it was insufficient. The reason why he mentioned Second Brother’s murder was only to pave the way for his poisoning incident because the evidence of him being poisoned by Eldest Master Lu was plenty sufficient.
He just had to insist that he had accidentally learned some secrets and that Eldest Master Lu wanted to silence him.
As expected, the Lu clan members grew suspicious. Flustered, Eldest Master Lu could only shout, "You’re slandering me because you want to snatch the position of clan head from me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two servants outside rushed in and knelt down. They kowtowed to Lu Deyin and the elders and said with gritted teeth, "Third Miss, we have evidence that Second Master and Second Madam were ordered to be killed by Eldest Master back then."
Without waiting for everyone to react, the servant decisively took out two letters and said, "These are letters between Eldest Master and the mountain bandits back then. There’s also Eldest Master’s private seal on them. Those who were sent by Eldest Master to send the letters back then are all dead, but the letters are still here."
After the servant finished speaking, he glared at Eldest Master hatefully and said, "That servant who was silenced is my cousin. Eldest Master, you didn’t expect this, did you? You had my cousin’s entire family killed, but you didn’t expect him to hide the letter long ago. He didn’t want to betray his master, but he didn’t expect you to not even let off a three-year-old child!"
Everyone’s expressions changed drastically. Only then did they remember that none of Eldest Master Lu’s old servants from more than ten years ago were left. They were either dead or sold.
Lu Deyin’s face was pale. She took two steps forward, grabbed the letter, opened it, and read it.
Only then did everyone come back to their senses and wanted to stop her.
Lu Deyin was no longer a daughter of the Lu family and was now the Princess Consort of King Rong’s estate. If this matter was confirmed, how would King Rong’s estate deal with the Lu clan?
