Chapter 336 Liu Shi still has dignity

Lu Mansion, Zhaoyun Courtyard.

Pei looked at Liu who suddenly arrived without delivering the note, and a thought flashed across her eyes.

She did not hasten to ask, but asked the servants to prepare tea and snacks, and then she talked about some things that happened in the capital today.

"Mother!"

Zhao hurried in and her face changed instantly when she saw Liu sitting there.

"But what happened to Xinlan? My daughter-in-law heard that something happened in Ruyi Tower today, and Xinlan and Xinran were both in the tower today."

Zhao had just heard this news accidentally from her servants and had not thought much about it. But when she heard that Liu had come to Lu's mansion, her heart instantly began to tighten.

What is Liu doing here at this time!

When Pei heard her say this, she immediately became nervous and looked at Liu.

"But what happened to Xinlan? Do you want me to send a letter to the doctor I know?"

Being stared at so nervously and concernedly by the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, Liu felt a little bitter at that moment, and realized that she had been too impulsive in rushing to Lu's house.

The news of the accident at Ruyi Tower must have spread widely. If the Lu family knew at this time that she had not given Lu Xinlan the care and concern that a mother-in-law should have, and even came to the Lu Mansion to question her, it would have a significant impact on her reputation and that of the Tang Mansion.

Thinking of this, she calmed down instantly, and realized how great an impact Lu Xinlan's words had on her.

She no longer had the intention to start a war and find fault with them. When she met their eyes again, she felt a little embarrassed, which was rare for her.

"No, no, it's Xinlan who's afraid you'll worry. I just happened to have something to go out for, so I wanted to come and say something in person."

"You, ah," Pei waved her hands with emotion, "It's just a small matter, and you have to come here in person. We Xinlan are ignorant.

"The child is still young, and we have always pampered him at home. Children who are spoiled will have some temper.

"If she does anything wrong, just tell us and I'll call her back and give her a good beating."

Pei's words sounded like she was pointing out her own child's faults, but how could Liu not hear that she was subtly reminding her that if she had any dissatisfaction with Lu Xinlan, she should not be tortured, but should be allowed to come to the Lu Mansion and they would personally come to preach to her.

Liu smiled politely, but the tone in her heart became more serious.

But now was definitely not the time to start a fight and she didn't want to stay here any longer, so she said a few polite words and then got up and left.

The Zhao family was still a little confused. After sending the person away, they hurried to look for the Pei family.

"Mother, what is she doing here? What happened to Xinlan?"

"If she doesn't want to talk, can we force her to answer? Don't worry, Xinlan is fine."

If something happened, Liu wouldn't be like this today.

She did not miss the questioning and accusatory look on Liu's face when she came in.

Zhao was half-believing and half-doubting, and wanted to ask a few more questions, but was directly sent back by Pei.

"Okay, stop being suspicious all the time. The child is fine. Don't think about those messy things and deprive Xin Lan of her blessings."

Being scolded again, Zhao felt a little aggrieved, but when she thought about what Pei had just said, she felt a little bit justified, so she left in aggrieved mood.

After Zhao left, Pei looked at Nanny Xu who had just entered the room.

"Did you find out anything?"

Nanny Xu looked solemn, and stepped forward and whispered in her ear, "Madam, before Madam Tang came to Lu's residence, the eldest daughter took a carriage to the Prince of Wei's residence."

"oh?"

He had just encountered danger with Lu Xinran in Ruyi Tower, and not long after returning home, he rushed to Prince Wei's Mansion again?

If there was an emergency...why did Liu come all the way to Lu's house?

He couldn't be upset that she had to go out again after returning home, right?

But if it was really because of such a small matter, then Liu is too narrow-minded.

Her little girl Xinlan is probably going to have a hard time in the Tang Mansion.

"Go, have someone go to the Prince of Wei's mansion and ask what's going on."

Nanny Xu responded and hurried out again. Pei looked at the Buddhist beads in her hand and sighed.

It's not easy for women in this world, so why should we deliberately go against them everywhere?

In the Prince of Wei's mansion, Lu Xinran had already asked someone to tidy up the yard for Lu Xinlan to come and rest.

She planned to spend some time copying down the important information in Yunsong's booklet one by one. After all the important information was copied down, she would figure out Yunsong's plans together.

"Princess, the old lady sent someone to ask about the situation between you and the young lady of the Tang Mansion."

"Oh? Ask me and my sister?"

Lu Xinran lowered his eyes and concentrated for a moment, then he guessed Pei's intention of sending people to Prince Wei's mansion.

It seems that Liu really went to Lu's house, but she did not tell anyone about her conflict with Lu Xinlan.

Fortunately, Liu still has some dignity!

"Go and lead him to my sister's room."

How to put it, let Lu Xinlan decide. After all, this is her own private matter, and she shouldn't interfere too much.

When Lu Xinlan saw the servants in Pei's room, how could he not understand what this meant.

She smiled bitterly and said, "I will go back home to visit my grandmother and mother tomorrow morning."

After sending the man back, she stood by the window for a long time, unable to recover.

She still thought and acted wrongly.

She claimed to be more rational and realistic, but in the end she was defeated by her own reality.

She should have realized long ago that if she wanted to preserve the last bit of herself, she would not be able to fully integrate into this era, nor would she be able to be a "good wife" or "good daughter-in-law."

But, I still feel a little sorry for Tang Chongli.

He was sandwiched between them, doing his best to protect her in every way, and he did nothing wrong.

But the divorce will have a significant impact on his reputation.

Lu Xinran was busy until late at night, and only then did he manage to write down on paper some of Yunsong's plans for the past few years.

Song Junyan had already sent Zhang Yongping away. He could fully trust the Queen, but he could not fully trust Zhang Yongping.

Especially since the emperor's true identity was too sensitive for the Zhang family, and the old lady was still alive, he could not truly trust the Zhang family until the last step.

Since they couldn't trust everything, they naturally wouldn't reveal everything they were thinking, so after the two of them tested each other, Zhang Yongping didn't mention his subsequent stance, and he didn't say much about his subsequent plans either.

When Lu Xinran finished her work, she turned around and saw him standing behind her, holding the content she had written in his hand.

She rubbed her eyes and stretched her waist: "Why don't you go and rest first?"

Song Junyan smiled and took her hand, gently massaging her wrist and arm.

"But are there any new discoveries?"

Lu Xinran shook his head in frustration: "No, this is the strangest thing, his thoughts and calculations are not shown at all in the booklet."

Either that guy's plans come to him easily without much thought, or his information is blocked by the system or some other force.
