After taking another look at the man lying on the ground wailing, Lu Wan ordered, "Take this man back to the mansion quietly, and don't alarm the others. The rest of the matter will be planned after the prince comes back."
Several guards responded hurriedly and took the man back first.
After hearing this, Lu Wan no longer had the mood to go shopping. He packed up the things he had bought and returned home with his poetry and paintings.
Just as he walked near his courtyard, Lu Wan saw Lu Baixue.
Seeing Huayi was about to step forward, Lu Wan hurriedly pulled her, made a silent gesture, and pointed to a place not far away.
Shi Qing looked at them from a distance and said in confusion, "The one standing with Concubine Lu seems to be Taohua from our courtyard."
"Peach blossom?"
Lu Wan thought the girl looked familiar and stretched his neck to look forward. "Now that you mention it, that girl looks familiar to me. It seems that she has been serving tea these days."
The master and his servants were hiding in a corner stealthily, picking up leaves and watching Lu Baixue and Taohua talking. Just when they were concentrating, they suddenly heard someone behind them say, "Greetings, sir."
Lu Wan was startled by the sudden voice, then he patted his chest and turned around, only to see that it was a guard standing behind him.
Seeing Lu Wan frightened like this, the guard was also stunned, then smiled apologetically and said, "I shouldn't have scared Lord Lu, but the prince has returned and said he wants to see you."
"To see me?"
Lu Wan thought about it and guessed that it was probably about the man she brought back today. After thinking about it for a while, she nodded and said, "I'll be there right away."
The guard had already delivered his message, so he withdrew first.
When Lu Wan looked back again, Taohua and Lu Baixue were gone. She didn't think much about it. She just thought that Lu Baixue came to her place to cause trouble and was stopped by the people in the yard.
He asked the two maids to go back first, and Lu Wan went to the front yard alone.
The place where Chen Yan was was not a study, but a secret room. It was not quite appropriate to call it a secret room, as it looked more like a prison cell.
The man had been tied up, but there were no scars on his body. Shen Yan was sitting in front of the rack, and there were a lot of things on the table next to him.
When Lu Wan got closer, he saw not only the emerald green jade bracelet that he had seen in the teahouse today, but also many other things. The others were not very impressive, but the pearl as big as a fist was really precious.
Just as she was about to speak, she saw that something was wrong with Shen Yan's expression, as if he was extremely angry and wanted to tear the man in front of him into pieces.
Hearing the footsteps behind him, Shen Yan turned around to look, and just one glance scared Lu Wan so much that he stood still and dared not move.
Shen Yan was about to speak, but he saw Lu Wan already smiling and calmly walked over to sit next to him.
"Did it scare you?"
Shen Yan waved his hand and ordered someone to serve tea to Lu Wan, then he said lightly.
