Chapter 424: Hitting the Wall and Waking Up in Time
Liu Xu did not look surprised. She also felt that someone was helping her behind the scenes.
She also thought that it was Luo Heng's people who were protecting her in secret.
Because, in her world, apart from Luo Heng, who has such strength and cares about her life and death, no one else has such strength.
When she thought of Luo Heng, her heart instantly sank.
Luo Hengcai didn't send anyone to protect her, but sent someone to kill her!
She went through so much trouble to find Luo Heng, hoping that Luo Heng could protect her. This was simply foolish!
Tears welled up in Liu Xu's eyes.
However, she immediately wiped away her tears and looked up at the man in black.
"Who are you? Why are you helping me?"
"It doesn't matter who I am, and you don't need to know. You just need to know that no one in the Luo family wants you to survive. Especially Luo Heng."
Liu Xu didn't answer, but hugged herself tightly in fear.
"Why are you killing me? I didn't do anything wrong."
"Do you remember? Those bones you saw in that cave?"
"remember."
"Those bones were once living beings, and they were favored by Luo Heng just like you. However, when Luo Heng got tired of them, they were sent there and ended their lives. In the end, only a pile of bones remained."
"Are those bones the women who served Luo Heng?" Liu Xu's face was full of horror.
"That's right. If I hadn't saved you, you would have become one of those bones that day."
Liu Xu thought about the haunted scene that day. At that time, she thought she was very lucky to have escaped death, but she didn't expect that someone was protecting her in secret.
If someone hadn't guided her, she might not have been able to get out of the mountain.
Liu Xu immediately stood up and knelt in front of the man in black, "Thank you for saving my life! Tell me what you need me to do. I, Liu Xu, will go through fire and water and die for you!"
"I don't need you to go through fire and water. If you cooperate with me, you are also saving yourself. As long as the Luo family is not destroyed, you will live in danger."
"You want to destroy the Luo family? They're the Marquis of Zhenyuan. The tree is big and the roots are deep. How can it be destroyed just like that?" Liu Xu was stunned.
After all, she is an oiran and has some knowledge.
"You don't need to worry about this. You just need to do what I say."
"Okay! I listen to you!"
……
A fairy-like woman suddenly came to Yongcheng, which is adjacent to the northern border.
I saw her walking on the street in a white dress, holding a pipa, playing the pipa and singing.
The gentle noise was so deafening that it made one's bones go limp.
Many men stared at her with wolf-like eyes.
Liu Xu walked directly to the county magistrate's mansion.
"I want to see the governor of Yongcheng."
The gatekeeper looked her up and down and was immediately stunned by her beauty. However, he did not forget his duty and asked in a flattering manner, "Excuse me, who are you?"
"I am the concubine of Luo Heng, the second son of the Luo family of Zhenyuan Marquis." Liu Xu announced her identity, "I want to ask the governor of Yongcheng for a favor."
"Please follow me." The servant immediately brought the person in.
In less than two hours, the news spread like wildfire that the concubine of Master Luo from Zhenyuan Marquis's Mansion had come all the way to look for Master Luo because she missed him so much.
The woman's name was Liu Xu, and she was once an oiran.
Fortunately, she was favored by the Second Young Master Luo, who helped her redeem herself. The two of them fell in love and were very sweet to each other. After a while, the Second Young Master Luo came to the northern border at the order of the emperor.
The wife of the second young master Luo could not tolerate Liu Xu, and wanted to take Liu Xu's life while the second young master Luo was away. Liu Xu was really desperate, so she came to the governor of Yongcheng for help.
I hope the governor of Yongcheng County can take her in for the sake of Mr. Luo.
The days of running around caused her old illness to relapse, and she really didn't have the energy to continue traveling.
The prefect of Yongcheng County couldn't take his eyes off the willow catkins the first time he saw them.
Which man wouldn't feel sorry for such a delicate beauty? He immediately agreed to Liu Xu's request and let her live in the county governor's mansion to recuperate.
Then, he enthusiastically helped Liu Xu contact Luo Heng.
Liu Xu was also very grateful. When she was feeling better, she played the piano and sang songs for the county magistrate.
When Luo Heng received the letter from the prefect of Yongcheng County, he was so angry that he punched the table.
Along with the news from the prefect of Yongcheng County, there was also a letter from Liu Xu.
The content of the letter was full of lingering feelings, expressing her love for him, missing him, and how she could not live without him.
Luo Heng angrily tore the letter into pieces.
"This woman clearly knew that I wanted to kill her. She clearly wanted to take revenge on me! She wanted to let everyone in the world know about my relationship with her! Don't even think about ruining my reputation!"
Luo Heng could no longer send anyone to kill Liu Xu.
If someone with ulterior motives finds evidence against him and impeaches him, he will have no way to defend himself!
He had personally promised the emperor that he would only love Jiang until death! If Liu Xu's appearance was serious, it would be considered a crime of deceiving the emperor!
The solution he could think of was to ignore Liu Xu and refuse to admit it!
The next day, he received another letter from Liu Xu.
This time, in addition to saying that she missed him and loved him madly, there was something more in the letter.
She talked about the hardships she had gone through in searching for him, and also said that she saw a cave.
Then, there is no more.
Luo Heng was almost tortured to death by this letter!
What exactly does Liu Xu mean by saying this?
What's in that cave?
Luo Heng connected all the recent events together.
The mother must kill Liu Xu. It must be that Liu Xu discovered something, and she must kill Liu Xu to silence her!
Quit your mouth!
A thought flashed through Luo Heng's mind.
Could it be that all the women who once served him were silenced?
Luo Heng's heartbeat suddenly began to beat like a drum.
The mother said that those people were sent to the farm and settled there, but afterwards, he never saw these people again!
This must be the secret that Liu Xu knows!
Luo Heng's eyes were full of murderous intent.
Willow catkins must die!
Moreover, she must be killed as soon as possible!
The longer she lived, the more threat she posed to him.
Judging from this woman's behavior, she must still have feelings for him, otherwise she wouldn't dare to come back after knowing that he was going to kill her, and write a letter like this to him to express her feelings.
However, this woman was hiding in Yongcheng, so even if he sent someone to pick her up, she would not believe it.
The prefect of Yongcheng is also a lustful man. He will definitely be used by Liuxu and will protect her.
And Rong Yulan, once he heard the news, he would never miss such a good opportunity.
After much thought, Luo Heng only thought of one solution: he would go to see Liu Xu himself and take Liu Xu's life with his own hands.
However, the military supervisor was not allowed to leave the barracks, so he could not go to find Liu Xu openly.
Luo Heng immediately went to find Rong Yulan. He planned to put the matter out in the open so that he could avoid some hidden attacks.
Rong Yulan was looking at the sand table, frowning in thought.
"General Rong." Luo Heng walked in and called out.
"Master Military Supervisor, what do you want from me?"
