I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night

220 You’re Really Promising!

“You’re really promising!”

Lu Ze glanced at Ma Xiuzhu and was amused by his pettiness. He raised his hand and threw the branding iron back into the bronze furnace. Then, as he slowly took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands, he continued to say to Ma Xiuzhu, “Alright, I can consider giving you a quick death, but there’s something I need your cooperation on!

If you perform well, I can naturally satisfy your wish!

However, if you want to play any tricks, I can make you suffer for the rest of your life. If you don’t believe me, you can try!”

“I’ll cooperate. I’ll cooperate with anything!”

Ma Xiuzhu was so anxious that he was about to cry. He had been waiting for this opportunity in despair. Now that he could obtain a promise from the person in front of him, he was like a drowning person who had seen driftwood.

He really didn’t want to suffer like this anymore!

He didn’t want to wait any longer!

Seeing him like this, Lu Ze finally didn’t want to torture him anymore. Instead, he instructed Su Qi, “Take him away and treat his injuries. We can’t let him go out like this!”

Su Qi lowered his head respectfully and agreed. Then, he arranged for someone to untie Ma Xiuzhu from the torture rack and quickly dragged him away.

After Ma Xiuzhu left, Lu Ze slowly turned around and looked at Luo Chengshan, who was on the torture rack, with a smile. “Alright, we can finally have a good talk now, Lieutenant Luo!”

Lin Suisui got into the car and went home without any delay.

When Yuan Niang saw her return, she quickly came forward and helped her take off her outer cloak as she asked with a smile, “From the looks of it, everything went extremely smoothly today, right?!”

“Yes, everything went extremely smoothly! I finally know why Qifeng Hall is so arrogant. It turns out that the person backing them is even more arrogant!

How dare he use crossbowmen to threaten the people in the street!

Su Le and the others were here today and prepared black iron shields to deal with it. However, if other injured families wanted to seek justice, wouldn’t they have been shot on the spot?!”

Lin Suisui washed her hands in the copper basin as she couldn’t help but mutter to Yuan Niang, “Were things always like this in Cloud Mountain City in the past?!”

“Actually, I remember that Cloud Mountain City wasn’t like this when I was young.” Yuan Niang brought a teacup over for Lin Suisui and told her about her past.

“At that time, the Yanyun Army was still stationed in the north. There really weren’t so many incidents of power abuse.

Later on, for some reason, the Yanyun Army was redeployed and replaced by the current Northern Battlefront Army. In a year or two, Cloud Mountain City became like this.”

Perhaps thinking of something, Yuan Niang appeared saddened.

“It’s fine now. It’s all in the past! Things will get better in the future.” When Lin Suisui saw Yuan Niang’s expression, she knew that she must have thought of her own encounter. She held her hand and said in a low voice, “Those people were captured today. Even Qifeng Hall was sealed!

“Evil people in this world will always be punished!”

“Yes.” Yuan Niang nodded and smiled. “I forgot to ask you something. I’ve already drawn the sketch of the shop. When do you want to check it?!”

“So soon?!” Lin Suisui looked at Yuan Niang in surprise. That shop had three floors from top to bottom and a courtyard at the back. It wasn’t small.

When they went over to check that day, Yuan Niang said that she could draw the diagram. She originally thought that it would take a few days, but she didn’t expect Yuan Niang to finish it in just a few days.

“I learned a little from my grandfather when I was young. My grandfather was a mason. Later on, he learned some drawing skills. I heard about it when I was teaching my cousin.”

As Yuan Niang spoke, she had already brought the sketch over for Lin Suisui to take a look. “Some of the walls here are just partitions. They can be directly broken through when the time comes. Some are used to carry weight. Don’t touch them.

“Look, I’ve marked the walls and pillars. This way, when we discuss the arrangements, there won’t be any mistakes!”

As Lin Suisui checked the blueprint, Yuan Niang explained the differences to her in detail. The afternoon passed quickly.

When Lu Ze entered from outside, it was already dark.

Under the lights in the courtyard, he was wearing a cloak and traveling through the snow. When he saw Lin Suisui, who was standing under the corridor to welcome him, he quickened his pace. He took the steps three at a time and reached out to push her into the room behind him. “Go back quickly. It’s cold outside.”

“I heard that you were back, so I came out to take a look.” While Lin Suisui was pushed around by Lu Ze, she smiled as she explained to him, “I just went out. I’m fine.”

“This is for you.” Lu Ze sent Lin Suisui into the warm pavilion and stood still. Then, he took out a red plum that had bloomed. “I traveled out of the city to do something. When I came back, I saw a plum tree that had bloomed, so I wanted you to take a look.”

“It’s beautiful.” Lin Suisui couldn’t hide the joy in her eyes. She quickly took the red plum from Lu Ze and went to ask Bai Guo to find a vase.

When Lin Suisui turned around, Lu Ze had already gone into the bathroom to change and wash up.

Lu Ze usually didn’t like to be served. It was probably a habit he had developed from marching outside all year round.

At first, when he arrived at this new residence, Lin Suisui didn’t know. Thinking about how he had a noble status and how he needed someone to serve him, she originally wanted Rui Huan to do it. However, when Rui Huan heard that the person who was going to serve him was the current head of the family, she immediately shook her head.

In the end, she had no choice but to let Mrs. Song do it.

However, just as Mrs. Song went in and explained her intentions, Lu Ze sent her out.

Lu Ze said that he didn’t like outsiders by his side when bathing.

Originally, Lin Suisui didn’t think too much about it, but when she thought of what Mrs. Song had said two days ago when she wanted to arrange for the little girl to serve those medical officers, she immediately felt a little uncertain.

“Why don’t you go in personally to help the family head wash up?!” For some reason, Mrs. Song suddenly said. Lin Suisui didn’t care at that time, but now that she thought about it…

Lin Suisui stood by the bed and paced back and forth. When she turned around, she realized that she had made a fatal mistake. The innerwear that she had prepared for Lu Ze to change into was still on the bed!

Then, what would Lu Ze change into after taking a shower?!
