She remembered that she and Dongli Lucang were just doctor and patient, right? When did their relationship become so close? He not only called her 'Zhizhi', but also looked at her with that kind of gaze.
"Why are you here?" Yunzhi asked, puzzled, as she came to her senses. Previously, Dongli Lucang had left without saying goodbye, and she thought they would never meet again. She never expected to meet him here, under these circumstances.
I wonder what Dongli Lu Cang is doing here? Could it be that he knew she was in danger and came specifically to rescue her?
Regardless of whether he has such great abilities, it's not good that he just trespassed into the inner courtyard.
If people find out and it gets out, his reputation will be ruined.
"I heard you were arrested, so I came to see you." Dong Li Lu Cang said, turning his gaze to Wang Shi and Wang Yuzhen.
For some reason, when he looked at them like that, neither Wang Shi nor Wang Yuzhen dared to breathe loudly, and their legs even felt weak.
At this moment, An Xiuyuan, having received the news, also abandoned his guests and hurriedly arrived at Ci'an Courtyard. When he saw Dongli Lu Cang standing in front of Yunzhi, confronting his mother and wife, he almost lost his balance and fell to the ground.
It was the attendant beside him who reacted quickly and helped him up, preventing him from making a fool of himself.
Entering the room quickly, An Xiuyuan immediately knelt down before Lu Cang of Dongli and said, "Your humble servant pays respects to the Regent."
Upon hearing the words "Regent," not only were Lady Wang and Wang Yuzhen terrified, but Yunzhi was also utterly shocked. She never dreamed that the man before her was her fiancé, the Regent, who was second only to the Emperor.
Lu Cang, Dong Li Lu Cang.
She had some doubts yesterday, but she never expected that they were actually the same person.
Lu Cang of Dongli coldly looked at An Xiuyuan kneeling in front of him and said, "Marquis Dingyuan is really capable, daring to detain people without authorization."
"No, no. Your Highness, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding." An Xiuyuan waved his hand, immediately denying it. Just kidding, seeing the Regent's reaction, it was clear that he and Yunzhi not only knew each other, but had a close relationship.
He must have a death wish to detain Yunzhi. Even if he had ten lives, he wouldn't dare.
Dongli Lu Cang remained silent, but his gaze fell upon Wang Shi and Yu Wangzhen. His meaning was clear: he wanted an explanation from the two of them.
An Xiuyuan immediately realized something was wrong. He knew his mother's temperament. She must feel she had lost face today, and seeing Yunzhi come to his wedding banquet, she was blaming her.
But he can't admit it.
So, while giving Wang Shi and Wang Yuzhen a meaningful look, he said, "Your Highness is wise. It must be that Mother misses Yun Shi, so she specially invited her over to have a chat."
Upon hearing this, Madam Wang immediately realized what was going on and chimed in, "Yes, yes, yes, Yuan'er is right. I did miss Yunzhi, which is why I invited her here. I was just about to have someone escort her out after we finished speaking."
The mother and son worked together quite convincingly. But Yunzhi showed them no mercy, her gaze falling on Wang Yuzhen's hands, and she said with a smile, "The old lady really misses me and wants to harm me. Look, she's even prepared the poison."
When Wang Yuzhen heard Yunzhi mention poison, she hurriedly tried to hide the medicine in her hand. But it was too late; not only Dongli Lucang saw it, but An Xiuyuan also saw it.
