Chapter 1107 "Eliminating Harm for the People"
When it came to the crucial point, Mrs. Deng stopped talking abruptly and just sighed heavily.
Lu Xingwan also sighed and asked, "Can you please finish your words?"
At this time, the nanny stepped forward, quickly brought a cup of tea to the lady, and then began to comfort her: "Don't worry, the young master is getting older now, I think he will figure it out one day."
Mrs. Deng didn't think so. After hearing what the nanny said, her voice even rose a few notches unconsciously: "I've figured it out! It's been five years, and he's still insisting on doing this!"
"How long will he have to wait to figure it out? Until I'm buried?"
"Only the Fifth Princess is kind-hearted. If the Fifth Princess tells His Majesty about this, not only him, but even our Deng family will be affected."
Lu Xingwan felt a little confused when listening to Mrs. Deng's words.
But she guessed that things were probably pretty much as she thought.
This Mrs. Deng is quite good at pretending.
On the one hand, he wanted to fulfill his son's intention by helping him keep a concubine in the Shangshu Mansion. On the other hand, he hoped that his fifth sister could speak more for his family in front of the emperor.
This is really true, you want both.
It was already late at this time, and Mrs. Deng had just returned from a palace banquet and was somewhat tired.
This matter could not be resolved in a day or two anyway, so she simply waved her hand helplessly at the nanny.
"Forget it, forget it. Let's talk about this another day! Serve me and rest first."
After saying this, Mrs. Deng wanted to stand up, and the nanny beside her hurried forward and helped her up.
Seeing the nanny helping Madam Deng walk into the inner room, Lu Xingwan sighed helplessly.
I'm afraid we won't be able to find out any truth from Mrs. Deng today.
But since I'm free anyway, I might as well go and see where Deng Yi is now.
Although she was worried about seeing Deng Yi and that woman making love, Lu Xingwan couldn't help but want to see where this ungrateful man Deng Yi was now.
She continued to follow Deng Yi's scent into the courtyard. She thought that Deng Yi would be in her courtyard, but the way she followed Deng Yi's scent, she found herself getting further and further away.
He found it in a courtyard in the corner of the mansion.
Yes, it seems that Mrs. Deng is very displeased with this person, and she would not let this woman be embarrassed in front of her.
It is reasonable to arrange it in the corner of the courtyard.
However, perhaps because Deng Yi was so attached to this woman, the whole yard looked very luxurious.
Although it is biased, it is not small.
Lu Xingwan simply flew to the ground and walked slowly along the path.
She had already sensed Deng Yi's presence, but for some reason, the further she walked into the courtyard, the more she felt a strong sense of eeriness.
Lu Xingwan is really afraid of ghosts, which is why she has never been able to learn spiritualism.
Although she had accidentally learned the art of spiritualism when dealing with Cheng's affairs before, this was not what she wanted.
She didn't want to be walking and suddenly a mysterious ghost appeared in front of her.
As she walked forward, she saw a faint light flickering in the room in the courtyard.
Only then did Lu Xingwan use the light to see the layout of the courtyard.
This yard is really weird. Whether it is the layout of the courtyard or the furnishings inside the house, it exudes a weird atmosphere that is completely related to the dead.
Lu Xingwan shuddered involuntarily, and then continued to move towards the place where there was a little light.
To her surprise, Deng Yi did not rest, but stood in the main hall, like a statue, motionless.
Lu Xingwan looked to the side, and saw a memorial tablet opposite Deng Yi, suddenly appearing in his sight.
At this time, Lu Xingwan was already very close to Deng Yi, so she used her spiritual power to restrain her breath and looked to the side.
At this moment, what caught Lu Xingwan's eyes were the four big characters "Deng Yi's Wife" clearly engraved on the tablet.
Seeing this, Lu Xingwan's eyes widened involuntarily, and waves of shock rose in her heart.
So what does this tablet mean?
Did Deng Yi really marry another wife?
Or did he harbor ill will towards the fifth sister, so he set up the tablet here to curse her?
It seemed that no matter what the situation was, he could not forgive Deng Yi.
Lu Xingwan felt that his endurance tonight was already very strong.
She had endured and refrained from attacking mortals for several times, but now, Deng Yi really pissed her off.
In an instant, Lu Xingwan's figure was like a flash of lightning, and the whole person was wrapped in the sound of wind, and quickly went towards where Deng Yi was.
She wanted to punch Deng Yi, even if she had to break his bones today, she would still do it.
At worst, I'll just get scolded by my master later.
Besides, Deng Yi was unkind in the first place, so I can be considered to have gotten rid of a scourge for the people.
To some extent, I have done what a cultivator should do.
When Lu Xingwan was only a few feet away from Deng Yi, she heard Deng Yi's affectionate voice: "Yun Niang, are you doing well?"
Just these one sentence was like a bolt from the blue to Lu Xingwan.
Her body flew past Deng Yi's ear.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly and the punch did not land on Deng Yi.
She also quickly adjusted the spiritual power in her body, turned around, and flew to the side.
Lu Xingwan had hidden herself, so Deng Yi couldn't see her.
But when Lu Xingwan passed by Deng Yi's ear, a strong wind blew.
But this gust of wind suddenly made Deng Yi crazy.
He stood up suddenly and looked around frantically.
"Yunniang, Yunniang, is that you? Are you back?"
There was a tremor and surprise in his voice. It seemed that Yun Niang was indeed the person he missed very much.
At this time, Lu Xingwan had already sat down on a chair beside her. She didn't care whether there was anything else in the yard.
Deng Yi could be so affectionate to her in this courtyard, what else did she have to be afraid of?
But seeing Deng Yi's distraught look, Lu Xingwan couldn't help but roll her eyes.
What a shameless thing! He has already married the fifth sister, but he is pretending to be affectionate here.
At this time, Deng Yi had fallen into a state of near madness. He kept searching in the house, as if Yun Niang was hiding in the bottles and jars.
I don't know if he was really looking for something or just venting his emotions, but he messed up all the furnishings in the house, even the books on the bookshelf were scattered all over the floor.
But despite his search, he still found nothing.
Lu Xingwan just sat in the chair with her arms crossed over her chest, watching Deng Yi fumbling around in the room as if he were a fool.
She didn’t know whether Deng Yi was a fool or not, but after all, he was a little crazy.
