Chapter 341: Just Say the Words as Knives

Lu Xinran looked at her thoughts at this moment and curled his lips secretly.

She could be so natural because she was not the original body, and the most important point was that Lu Xinlan was not the original body either, they were fellow villagers from the same time and space.

She really couldn't take on her original hatred and then use those means of revenge on the other party.

Of course, the most important point is...she doesn't have that many tricks.

If you really calculate it, even ten of her combined are no match for Lu Xinlan!

She clapped her hands, signaling Zhao to let the man go.

"Grandmother, let Madam Xu go to the Tang residence and bring back my sister's dowry and the servants who came with her as a dowry. We can discuss other matters after these are taken care of."

Pei sighed silently, turned her head and gave a look to Madam Xu, who immediately walked up to Liu and waited to go to the Tang Mansion with her.

At this point, Liu's rationality that had caused her to run away from home finally returned to her body.

Feeling the gazes of everyone in the room, she felt a chill in her body, and finally realized that her impulsive actions had pushed the situation to an irreversible point.

In order to prevent Lu Xinran from discovering her contempt for Lu Xinlan, she restrained herself from thinking about her bad side, and made sure that whenever she thought of Lu Xinlan, her mind would be filled with compliments.

After a few months of this, the Lu family was successfully convinced of the marriage and was willing to have the two families get together.

I have been planning this for nearly a year, how could it end up like this?

She looked at Lu Xinran, who was looking at her with contempt, in a daze, then looked past her at Lu Xinlan, who had been unwilling to look her in the eye. The rare clarity made her realize that Lu Xinlan should have noticed her contempt and neglect a long time ago.

My heart grew colder and colder, and my hands and feet also became as cold as if they had been pulled out of ice water.

She raised her hands with great effort, trying to force a smile and ask Lu Xinlan to go home with her, but the words just wouldn't come out of her mouth.

"Mrs. Tang, now that things have come to this, I hope you can leave each other in a respectful manner, so that it won't hinder your sister from getting married again in the future."

Lu Xinran knew what Liu was most afraid of hearing at this moment, so every word he said was heartbreaking.

No matter whether Lu Xinlan will still want to get married after what happened, just speak like a knife.

Liu was helped out of Zhaoyun Courtyard by servants in a daze. Every step she took felt like she was walking on cotton. The feeling of weightlessness made her eyes go dark. She fainted before she even walked out of Lu's mansion.

When Zhao learned that she almost fainted in her own house, she couldn't help but spit again.

"What bad luck! How could I run into such a wicked woman out of nowhere?"

Why does her Xinlan have such a miserable life!

It would be fine if she wasn't her biological daughter or the eldest daughter of the Lu family, but she was treated harshly and harassed by such a wicked woman!

The more she thought about it, the more distressed she felt. She held Lu Xinlan's arm and her eyes turned red.

"Xinlan, what are you going to do in the future?"

Lu Yuanheng's marriage has just been decided, and the two girls from the second house have not yet been engaged. If she and Li return home at this time... it will have a huge impact on the marriages of several other people in the house.

Lu Xinlan pursed his lips and spoke softly for a long while amid Zhao's sobs.

"I have checked. After a woman gets divorced, she can go to the government office to register as a female household and open her own household. Mother, grandmother, Xin Lan will not return to the government office after she gets divorced to delay the marriages of her brothers and sisters."

She now only hopes for a smooth divorce and to have nothing to do with the Tang family in the future.

Zhao slapped her on the face and said, "What nonsense are you talking about, little girl? How could your mother let you become a daughter-in-law?"

Her daughter had such a hard life, how could she bear to let her suffer outside?

Kong, who had been like a transparent person standing by, watched the two of them move their lips, as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself.

Her two daughters have not yet been engaged. If the family has an older sister who divorces her husband right after getting married because she does not want to give birth to a child for her husband's family, Lu Xinling and her family's future marriages will definitely be very bumpy.

However, it was inappropriate to bring up this matter now. She could only wait until Zhao left and then talk to Pei in a tactful way.

Lu Xinran had been paying attention to Kong's expression and knew that she was in trouble.

Secretly, she didn't want Lu Xinlan to stay in the capital after leaving, because all the government offices in the capital were full of people who flatter the powerful and look down on the weak.

At that time, Lu Xinlan, as the eldest daughter of the Lu family and with a verbal marriage contract with the royal family, was envied by countless people.

Later, her status fell from the clouds, and she became a laughing stock in the hearts of those who envied her.

Countless people were waiting to see her make a fool of herself, hoping that she would live a miserable life so that those people would feel better.

If the news of her divorce got out, who knows what these people would say to laugh at her.

However, we still have to take things one step at a time in the current situation and resolve the divorce issue smoothly first. As for the rest, we can deal with it after Lu Xinlan regains his freedom.

Since she can establish a female household, everything will be easy.

"Madam, His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei is outside the palace. He said he is here to take Princess Wei back."

A servant hurried in to report. Lu Xinran was still a little surprised. She tilted her head and glanced at the sky outside. It was almost noon, so the man should have just come out of the palace.

Pei had not expected that Song Junyan would come in person to pick someone up. She looked at the people in the room who had different thoughts, raised her hand tiredly and pinched her brows.

"The prince came to pick you up personally, he must be worried about you going back alone, go back quickly, that's all for today, I'm here at the Tang Mansion, don't worry too much these days, Xinlan, your grandmother will support you no matter what happens."

She said this to support her.

Lu Xinlan knelt on the ground and kowtowed gratefully, "It's my granddaughter who is ignorant and has made things difficult for my grandmother."

"Hey girl, get up quickly, what are you doing?"

She just knew how thorny and rugged the road was because she had walked it herself, so she didn't want to suffer the same hardship.

Her grandmother can't do it, but I can still protect her.

Song Junyan was sitting in the carriage, frowning tiredly. Thinking of the chaos at the morning court today, his headache became worse.

His father... must have used that powerful aphrodisiac again yesterday. Before the morning court was over, he was exhausted and fell off the dragon throne. He hit his forehead and was hurriedly carried back to Qingxin Palace by the eunuchs.

Thinking of the shock of the court officials and the chaos in the palace, his brows furrowed even more.

If things continue to develop like this, I'm afraid everything will get out of control.

After Lu Xinran came out of Lu's house, she separated from Lu Xinlan. Lu Xinlan got on the carriage they came in, while she got on Song Junyan's carriage.

"What happened? Did something happen in the morning court?"

This thought immediately came to her mind when she got in the car and saw his expression.

Song Junyan hummed tiredly and quickly recounted the chaos of the morning court.

"He used that pill again? He is definitely courting death."

If this happens a few more times, the emperor might not be able to have another New Year’s Eve dinner.
