She was so fascinated by the sight that she didn't come to her senses until Lan Ying knocked on the door.
Ye Xinran and Lan Ying had dinner together and then went to bed.
The next morning, Ye Xinran had just gotten up when Lan Ying knocked on the door.
"Lan Ying, come in!"
Lan Ying pushed the door open and came in, "Princess, a secret guard said he wants to see you for something!"
Ye Xinran raised her eyebrows. After packing up, she went to the front hall.
Sure enough, there was a secret guard waiting for her.
"Your subordinate greets the princess!"
"No need to be so polite! What's the matter? Sit down and talk!" Ye Xinran sat at the top seat.
The secret guard did not sit down, but bowed and said, "The princess instructed to secretly capture Gu Kamakura's children from other families. They have all been captured, and Gu Kamakura has also been arrested! I don't know how to deal with them."
Ye Xinran frowned. She almost forgot that there was such a person.
Just kill him! But he is the old prince's younger brother, and it would be unreasonable not to punish him, because he almost killed all of them.
Ye Xinran thought for a moment and said, "First, lock Gu Kamakura up alone and don't let him see anyone. Wait until he falls asleep before delivering food or water. Make sure that from today on, he can't see anyone and can't hear what's happening outside."
"Yes, I'll do it right away!" The secret guard turned and left.
Ye Xinran frowned, thinking about the specific punishment measures. It would be better to wait for the old prince and the old princess to come back and then they and the people in the clan would decide together.
Ye Xinran and Lan Ying had breakfast together and were thinking about taking a walk on the street when someone brought them an invitation.
"Whose is it?" Ye Xinran asked, looking at the ancient letter in her hand.
"It is said to be from the Lu family!" Lan Ying was also a little curious. At this time, someone actually invited the princess to her home.
"It is said that Madam Lu wants to see you!"
Ye Xinran raised an eyebrow, "Lu family? Which Lu family? Could it be the family of the founding general, Lu Tianwang?"
Lan Ying nodded. It should be their family. There are not many families with the surname Lu!
Ye Xinran nodded, "Prepare the horses, let's go!"
Lan Ying prepared a carriage this time, and Ye Xinran also changed into proper clothes for a princess and a noble lady. She also brought some gifts for visiting the Lu family.
There was a crowd of people in front of the Lu family’s door.
When Ye Xinran arrived, she was really shocked.
Not only the old lady of the Lu family came, but also the master of the Lu family, who should be the current Grand Tutor, the Grand Tutor's wife, and a lot of young masters and young ladies came. It was really a bit of a big deal.
Ye Xinran didn't know who was who, and was awkwardly surrounded by the old lady and the ladies as she entered the Lu Mansion.
Finally, he was arranged to sit at the top, next to the old lady. Mr. Lu and his wife sat at the bottom.
Ye Xinran was completely confused by their enthusiasm. Even if she was a first-rank princess, the Grand Master should also be a first-rank! Madam, the Madam should also have an imperial decree.
"Princess! Don't be restrained. Coming to the Lu Mansion is like coming to your own home!" Old Madam Lu had a kind face and her white hair was combed meticulously.
He enthusiastically took Ye Xinran's hand.
"I see the princess likes it more and more! Oh, it would be great if it were our family!"
Ye Xinran tried to pull it back several times, but failed. She twitched her lips. She didn't know what to say.
"That's right, that's right, the princess gets along well with our family! Come visit us more often when you are free!" Mrs. Lu also had a kind look on her face.
Ye Xinran was confused. What on earth was going on? If you didn't know, you would think she was their long-lost daughter.
The young master and the young lady also stared at her boldly, which made her a little overwhelmed.
Fortunately, at this time, Mr. Lu spoke.
"Princess, I have something I want to talk to you alone. Could you please come to my study?"
Ye Xinran nodded quickly. If you have something to say, just say it. Don't sugarcoat it right away. It's scary! She always felt like these people wanted to eat her.
Ye Xinran stood up, took Lan Ying with her, and followed Master Lu to the study room, looking like they were about to flee.
Because of his martial arts training, he had deep internal strength and excellent hearing. He could even hear the whispers in the front hall behind him.
"Yes! Really!"
"I really do!"
"I can see it clearly, even the little mole next to the ear is the same!"
"Ah, she was originally going to marry our Hui'er! What a pity!"
"It's all the fault of that old immortal Marquis Dingyuan!"
"that is!"
…
Ye Xinran was completely confused and had no idea what to do.
Lan Ying also frowned.
Like what? Like whom?
They said they were going to the study, but after walking for half a day, they finally arrived at a courtyard at the back of the mansion. The doors and windows were all pitch black.
Ye Xinran and Lan Ying both became alert instantly.
Mr. Lu continued walking forward and was about to enter the yard.
Ye Xinran stopped walking forward and asked suspiciously.
"Where is Master Lu taking me? Is the study so far away? Is there any other intention?"
There was pressure and displeasure in his voice.
Mr. Lu smiled awkwardly.
"No, no! This is actually our Lu family's ancestral hall!"
Ye Xinran frowned, looked at the yard in front, squinted his eyes, and said suspiciously.
"Why did you bring me to your ancestral hall?"
Generally speaking, this kind of place should only be visited by people within the family! To put it bluntly, bastards, concubines, and servants are not allowed to enter.
Let her come here and say she has no intention!
"Princess, do you dare to come in with me? I..." Master Lu asked instead of answering.
Lan Ying stood in front of Ye Xinran and looked at Master Lu with cold eyes.
"I have no ill intentions. I just want to show you something. This thing has been kept in the ancestral hall. It was passed down by our ancestors and cannot be taken out. You can only go in and see it yourself."
"Princess, be careful!" Lan Ying said nervously.
"The princess is as brave as any man and is skilled in martial arts. She shouldn't be afraid of a middle-aged scholar like me!" Master Lu was not annoyed.
Ye Xinran looked at Mr. Lu and the Lu family members just now, and they didn't look like bad people. The key point is that they are all relatives of Zhu Qian. She felt that there shouldn't be any big problems.
After being treated like this by the Lu family, she became a little curious.
Moreover, she has a space to rely on, if there is a problem, she can go into the space. I don't think they dare to do anything to her.
"Okay, I'll go in with you!"
"Princess..." Lan Ying said in surprise.
Ye Xinran patted her hand soothingly, "Just wait for me outside!"
Lan Ying gritted her teeth and nodded.
"Okay, I'll be waiting for you outside! I won't leave for a moment!"
Ye Xinran smiled and nodded.
"Princess, please come in!" Mr. Lu made a gesture of invitation.
Ye Xinran nodded and walked in.
She followed Master Lu through several porches and saw a tall black building. Master Lu walked forward and gently pushed open the two doors in the middle.
Ye Xinran followed him in and looked up.
The moment I saw it, I was stunned on the spot!
How could this be...
