Chapter 297
297 Acting up at the same time
It was getting dark. Lu Zheng changed back into his own clothes and drove the carriage to the county government office.
At this moment, the county Yamen was in a mess because Cheng Rui was nowhere to be found. Yao yunhua’s maidservant said that she saw a servant carrying Cheng Rui and running away.
After Lord Cheng and Madam Cheng asked, the manservant at home could clearly explain when and where he had gone today.
No one had the time to carry Cheng Rui away.
More importantly, the servants in the family did not have the ability to carry Cheng Rui and not leave through the door.
Mrs. Cheng was so scared that she almost fainted. What trouble did her son cause outside? did he meet some kind of enemy?
Lord Cheng was even angrier. This was Taoyuan County, and he was the county Magistrate here. How could he go to the county office and kidnap his son without anyone knowing?
“Sir, Madam, bad news! The eldest young master was thrown at the entrance of the county office!” The sky turned dark, and a Yamen runner’s report came from outside.
A few bailiffs followed behind and brought him in.
At this moment, Cheng Rui was only left with a pair of underpants.
His face was pale, his body was blue and purple, and there were bloodstains on his pants. He looked very terrifying.
“rui ‘er!” Madam Cheng fell to the ground in fear.
“Hurry up and get the doctor!” Lord Cheng roared.
Cheng Rui moved. His hands kept scratching his body, as if something was crawling on it. It was very itchy.
“pfft!” A pungent smell came.
“Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!” Soon, everyone saw that Cheng Rui’s pants had another color besides the blood.
“It hurts!” suddenly, cheng rui sat up and clutched his chest.
“Argh! where was this place? My eyes! my eyes can’t see! my heart, my heart hurts so much!???,??!”
“Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!”
All the powder had taken effect on Cheng Rui’s body, making him wish he was dead.
He didn’t feel anything after being stepped on by Gu Hui.
The people present had never seen such a phenomenon before, and they were all stunned for a moment.
As the plopping sounds continued, more and more things flowed out of the ground, and the house became stinky.
Rui ‘er, sob, sob. this time, Madam Cheng directly fainted.
Lord Cheng asked someone to help Madam Cheng back to her room, and then asked a few servant boys to carry Cheng Rui to his room.
It was easy to deal with Madam Cheng when she fainted, but Cheng Rui was awake. He kept making ” pfft, pfft, pfft ” sounds, leaving a strong trace and smell in the hall and his room. Even though it was already dark, there were many lanterns in the county government office, and the traces on the ground could be seen.
“quickly get someone to clean it up! Where is the doctor? Is the doctor here yet?” Lord Cheng wanted to faint, but he couldn’t. If he fainted, who would take charge of the overall situation?
On the wall of the county government office, two small heads were resting there. They looked at each other and smiled.
“Brother Yuanyuan, I’m done!”
“Sister, it’s done!”
Gu Xin and Gu si lowered their heads and whispered.
Gu Xin wanted to see Cheng Rui’s fate and Lu Zheng was naturally willing to satisfy her. However, she couldn’t bring him to the county office. Hence, they found a wall. They couldn’t see the situation inside the house but they could see the outside.
in order to make it easier for him to escape, lu zheng even asked the old woman at grandma xiao’s place to find some cloth to make a simple cloak and two pieces of cloth towels to wrap around his head and face, only revealing his eyes.
gu hui actually wanted to see it too, but seeing lu zheng squat down to let gu xin sit on her shoulder, she also quietly squatted down to let gu si sit on her shoulder.
The two little girls were relieved to see Cheng Rui being carried away.
