Ying Liu looked at Dark Moon Enchantress with eyes full of vigilance. He felt as if a cold wind was blowing towards her.
He rubbed his hands nervously, then spoke cautiously, "Pavilion Master! You're so concerned about Luo Lingliu. Could it be that there's some special relationship between you and him? Actually, you don't have to worry. Luo Lingliu's life is not in danger at the moment. It's just that he's being forced to become the Shen family's son-in-law."
"But then again, I think Chen Yourong and Luo Lingliu are a good match! Besides, even if I didn't pick up the hydrangea and force it into his hands, he took the initiative to catch it! So, you really can't blame me for this!"
Dark Moon Fairy felt a splitting headache as she listened to Ying Liu's words. She waved her hand impatiently, interrupting Ying Liu's chatter. "Alright, alright, from now on, you don't have to follow Luo Lingliu anymore! Return to Dark Moon Pavilion immediately! I don't want to see you right now!"
Upon hearing this, Ying Liu's face instantly turned ashen. He looked at Dark Moon Fairy pitifully, his lips trembling as if he wanted to explain something, but in the end, he didn't dare to speak again.
However, Dark Moon Fairy remained unmoved. Her expression grew increasingly gloomy, her eyes flashing with anger as she snarled through gnashing teeth, "Get out of here now! If you don't leave, I'll tear your head off!"
Before he finished speaking, Ying Liu vanished like a flash of lightning. Dark Moon Fairy sighed helplessly, feeling a surge of regret. If she had known this would happen, she should have assigned someone else to protect Luo Lingliu.
Lunch was underway at the General's Mansion, but the atmosphere around the table was somewhat heavy. Luo Lingzhang and Chu Qingrui were preoccupied with their own thoughts, while the eldest sister-in-law, Chen Manting, ate absentmindedly. Meanwhile, Luo Lingyue lowered her head, unconsciously poking at the rice in her bowl with her chopsticks.
Seeing this, An Qingyi couldn't help but shout, "Xiao Qi! What are you thinking about? Concentrate on eating!"
Luo Lingyue pouted and complained, "Mom! I'm so bored! Look at Third Brother, he sends people to watch me every day! He's interfering with my personal freedom!"
However, facing his sister's dissatisfaction, Luo Lingzhang's jade-like face did not show a ripple. He responded calmly: "What exactly is this so-called freedom? A woman should obey the teachings of her father and brothers at home, obey her husband's wishes after marriage, and if her husband passes away, she must obey her son's arrangements. Luo Xiaoqi, compared to other women who live in seclusion, you already have more than enough freedom. What else do you desire?"
Hearing her brother's words, Luo Lingyue glared at him angrily, then looked towards her third sister-in-law Chu Qingrui for help, and called softly, "Third sister-in-law..."
Chu Qingrui lowered her eyes silently and said softly, "What your third brother said is true."
Luo Lingyue said angrily, "I don't want to stay in the capital! I want to go to Beiyuan! I want to find Daddy and Big Brother! I also want to find Fourth and Fifth Brothers! They are the ones who love me the most!"
Luo Lingzhang looked up at her and said calmly, "Since you want to leave the capital so much, then go to Jiangnan to find your second brother!"
"Ah? Really? You actually want me to go find my second brother? Wow! That's awesome!" Luo Lingyue shouted excitedly. She had originally planned to sneak to Jiangnan to find Luo Lingliu under the pretext of going to Beiyuan, but she didn't expect... this result was so unexpected!
Luo Lingzhang picked up a piece of candied lotus root and placed it in Chu Qingrui's bowl, while slowly saying, "Xiao Liu, you go with Xiao Qi!"
At this moment, Luo Lingfeng, who had been concentrating on eating, suddenly looked up from his bowl and asked in confusion, "Third brother, I'm living a good life in the capital. I'm not bored at all! Why should I accompany Xiao Qi to Jiangnan?"
The others at the table glared at him angrily. Luo Lingfeng rubbed his head and said helplessly, "Alright! I'll protect Xiao Qi well!"
After dinner, Luo Lingyue, beaming with joy, went to pack her things, while the others headed to the study. An Qingyi, with a worried look on her face, asked Luo Lingzhang, "Honestly, I think it would be more appropriate for Xiaoqi to go to Beiyuan! After all, the entire Beiyuan is occupied by the Luo Family Army, and they can better protect Xiaoqi!"
Luo Lingzhang remained calm and replied indifferently, "However, the King of Qin is in Beiyuan. We must not allow him to be in any danger!"
Luo Lingfeng was furious and shouted, "Third Brother! In that case, why don't we take the initiative and kill Li Jingshu first!"
Chu Qingrui quickly interrupted, "You have no evidence, so how are you going to get rid of Li Jingshu? Besides, even if she's just a princess consort, the people and events involved are too complicated. Xiaoqi heading to Jiangnan is the best plan!"
Eldest sister-in-law Chen Manting, her pregnant belly puffed out, fanned herself, and cursed indignantly, "Has this vixen Li Jingshu lost her mind? Our little Xiaoqi has already been betrothed to Prince Xiao, and has nothing to do with her prince! And yet she's biting everywhere like a mad dog!"
An Qing leaned back in his chair, his eyes a little tired as he said, "No one in the Li family is like a normal family. Forget it, Xiaoqi, why don't you go to Jiangnan for a walk? Just to relax! By the way, you two can go and congratulate your second brother on his wedding!"
Luo Lingfeng scratched his head and asked doubtfully, "Mom! Are we really going to ignore Second Brother? Just let him become the Shen family's son-in-law?"
An Qingyi glanced at him lightly and said disdainfully, "Your second brother is not young anymore. Many men his age in the capital already have sons and daughters! Besides, our Luo family is large, so we don't mind losing a few people with the surname Luo. As long as the child is his biological son, what surname does it matter?"
