Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild - Chapter 175
Chapter 175: The “Magical” Pen
Lin Jiang Mansion.
It was already late at night.
However, Yu Chun Brothel was still brightly lit, and the fragrance of rouge permeated the air.
It was the largest brothel in Lin Jiang Mansion. The ladies inside were all as beautiful as flowers and the courtesans were all talented and beautiful.
It was snowing and freezing cold outside, but it was bustling inside.
Women’s coquettish voices and men’s flirtatious words echoed in the brothel.
With the soft and fragrant woman in his arms and the numbing effects of the alcohol, the men had forgotten that their wives and children were still waiting at home anxiously.
A burly figure looked up expressionlessly at the plaque of Yu Chun Brothel before walking in.
“Ah!”
A girl’s heart-wrenching scream suddenly rang out in a room.
People ran up the stairs and saw that the man in the room had stopped breathing. He was still wearing a happy expression on his face.
“What… what’s going on?”
After the procuress recovered from her daze, she quickly asked the girl who was still in shock.
“Mom, I didn’t kill him!”
That girl did not care that her clothes were not covering her body adequately. She crawled over and knelt in front of the procuress. She said with tears flowing down her face, “Just now, a black shadow flashed in. That official… he died after that! Sob—”
With that, she covered her face in fear and cried bitterly.
The procuress calmed herself down and shouted, “Quick, report to the government office!”
The next day, there were men from every brothel in Lin Jiang Mansion who died in the same way.
This also cleared the suspicion of all the girls in the various brothels.
When Chu Sihan received the news and returned to Lin Jiang Mansion, it was already midnight.
Lu Zhou and Lu Sheng were also present.
This was because Lu Zhou suspected that the ‘half-human, half-ghost’ from the capital was here.
This matter quickly attracted the attention of the magistrate court, and all the brothels were immediately forced to close their doors.
According to their understanding, these dead men all had wives who were equally kind and willing to do anything for them at home.
“Master, could it really be the one from the capital?”
After understanding the situation, Lu Sheng hurriedly asked Lu Zhou.
“Most likely.” Lu Zhou sighed. “I didn’t expect him to escape from the capital to Lin Jiang Mansion.”
“Master, what should we do next?”
Lu Sheng did not care much about the lives of those scumbags. She cared more about the hundred thousand taels.
Lu Zhou pondered for a moment and said to Chu Sihan, “Lord Chu, quickly get someone to prepare the ritual items.”
He wanted to meet this thing.
Chu Sihan nodded solemnly. “What do you need, Third Prince?”
“One moment please.”
Lu Zhou took out a pen and wrote a bunch of things on the paper.
Chu Sihan looked at his pen in surprise.
He glanced at Lu Sheng, only to see that she had a calm expression on her face. It was as if she was not surprised at all by this ‘magical pen’ that could write without dipping ink.
After he finished writing, Lu Zhou covered the pen and blew on the paper before handing it to Chu Sihan. “Just get someone to follow what is on the paper.”
“Oh.”
Chu Sihan took the paper, but his eyes were still on the pen in his hand.
Lu Zhou ignored his curiosity and kept his pen.
“Chu Yun, I’ll leave this to you.”
Chu Sihan handed the paper to Chu Yun.
“Yes!”
After Chu Yun left, he turned around and looked at Lu Zhou hesitantly.
Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows and asked suspiciously, “Is there anything else, Lord Chu?”
“Just now… the pen that you used. Where did you buy it from?”
It seemed to be much better than his brush!
