Chapter 2635: Had to Find an Ally
If Lu Yuanfan’s rebellion was confirmed, they would likely face execution.
This body belonged to Lu Yuanfan’s daughter, a direct relative who could very well be beheaded.
She couldn’t even survive, how could she even think about a counter attack?
Ning Shu turned over and stared at Yuan Xiang, who was sleeping on the recliner, drooling. She had to find an ally.
It was too difficult to do it alone.
The power disparity was too great.
But who should be her partner?
Lu Yuanfan? Lu Mingxuan?
Ning Shu covered her head with the blankets. She felt that Lu Junning was suspicious of her.
Ning Shu couldn’t come up with a solution. She kept pondering if there was any way to handle Lu Junning.
The original host, Lu Yueyun, had set two tasks: avoid marrying Li Yu and avoid being defiled.
But under an overthrow, how could anything be left intact? Lu Yueyun had been sent to the ancestral temple early on and lived the rest of her life there, while the Lu residence collapsed.
Even if she managed to escape being defiled, the Lu residence was still doomed to be overthrown, and the outcome wouldn’t be favorable either.
Ning Shu even considered directly poisoning Lu Junning, simply killing her. However, implementing this plan was a bit challenging. There were guards around, not to mention Shen Yichen.
He would likely assign people to keep an eye on her, suspecting that the item was in her possession.
Ning Shu lived her days embroidering, maintaining her usual routine. However, she couldn’t shake the feeling that someone was watching her, that more than one pair of eyes were fixed on her.
As expected, someone was monitoring her. Ning Shu feigned ignorance and nonchalantly tossed the book into the wash basin. The pages gradually soaked with water, causing the ink to smear and making the once clear characters illegible.
Ning Shu was extremely bored, tearing the paper into pieces one by one, and then shredding each piece into small fragments, reducing it to a mushy mess in the basin.
Even if Lu Junning possessed extraordinary abilities, there was no way she could undo the damage or restore it.
If such a thing were possible, Ning Shu would kneel.
“Miss, what are you doing?” Yuan Xiang entered the room and found the basin filled with mushy paper, feeling at a loss for words as she asked.
“Just bored,” Ning Shu replied. She wiped the water off her hands, picked up the copper basin, and poured the water into the chamber pot.
Yuan Xiang shrugged her shoulders. Miss was truly too idle.
With the book matter resolved, Ning Shu felt relieved. The crisis in the Lu residence had been temporarily averted. However, she didn’t know if Lu Junning would come up with other ways to deal with the Lu residence.
At least the rebellion was no longer a concern. They couldn’t accuse Lu Yuanfan of rebellion without evidence.
After all, Lu Yuanfan was still a high-ranking official.
Ning Shu didn’t inform Lu Yuanfan about the book, allowing him to worry and be on edge.
When one’s life was threatened, it was natural to suspect everyone around them.
Ning Shu hoped that Lu Yuanfan would suspect Lu Junning.
Ning Shu stretched lazily and said to Yuan Xiang, “The weather is really nice today. Let’s go out for a walk.”
Ning Shu left the courtyard and walked around in the garden, feeding the fish for a while, and then enjoying the scenery.
