In the early morning, after saying goodbye to Li Ye, Linghu Lan went back to her room to sleep as usual.
She now only had two things left to do: one was to wait for news from Qin Ya, fearing that Qin Ya might encounter some mishap while helping Ning Yue file a complaint in the underworld; the other was that even if everything went smoothly, she was afraid that if Qin Ya left, she wouldn't be able to find her.
In the previous world, Mo Tang was the Ghost King. She knew some of the rules of the Ghost Palace. Each ghost messenger had their own territory to govern and could not move around at will. If they wanted to move around, they had to inform the authorities.
She was afraid that Qin Ya would have to go through all the trouble of these procedures, so she simply waited there.
Another thing was to wait for Master Wang's house to catch fire. On that day, she changed the feng shui of the house, turning it into a house that could catch fire. Now that the weather is dry, the fire should start in one or two days.
Once these two matters are settled, she can leave here with peace of mind and go to the capital with Li Ye.
She hadn't slept all night, but lying in bed, she slept soundly.
Later, she vaguely heard noises outside the door, woke up, and asked, "What is it?"
Qiu Xiang opened the door and walked in, smiling at Linghu Lan, "Grandma, you're awake?"
"What just happened?"
Qiu Xiang poured a cup of tea and handed it to Linghu Lan. Her rosy face was dignified and clean.
“Grandma, there is indeed something. There is a man outside the door who calls himself Lan Xiucheng and wants to see Master and Madam. He says he wants to pay his respects at his sister's grave. Master and Madam are hesitant to make a decision, so they sent someone to ask you, Grandma. I told them that you are asleep and Master's man is waiting outside. Grandma, would you like to see him?”
Lanxiu City?
Lan Qinyu's brother?
Did he really come to pay his respects at Lan Qinyu's grave? Or did he have some other purpose?
Linghu Lan thought for a moment and said, "I won't see her!"
When she arrived at the Lan family, she had already said what she needed to say. If Lan Xiucheng had had any sense of justice back then and wanted to avenge Lan Qinyu, she might have helped them.
However, they avoided the matter out of fear. Since they had severed all ties that day, their coming to ask for help again today didn't seem to be sincere.
Besides, he had already told him that it was Master Wang and his wife who killed Lan Qinyu, yet he came to beg instead of attacking.
Linghu Lan's desire to meet people has completely vanished.
Qiu Xiang quickly agreed and went out to tell Master Wang's servant.
Before long, he brought water over again and helped Linghu Lan wash up and eat.
It wasn't until the afternoon, after Linghu Lan woke up from her nap, that Qiu Xiang hesitated to speak, her conflicted expression leaving Linghu Lan helpless.
Qiu Xiang was indeed a breath of fresh air in the Prince's mansion, unlike the other fierce and menacing servants.
However, they are too naive and lack the ability to protect themselves.
"Say what you have to say!"
Qiu Xiang blushed slightly, biting her lip in embarrassment. "Grandma, that person is still waiting outside."
"Which person?"
"That guy named Lan Xiucheng."
"Let him wait if he wants to. Haven't you ever seen someone wait for someone else?"
Qiu Xiang opened her mouth slightly, unsure of what to say.
Linghu Lan smiled; Qiu Xiang was ultimately soft-hearted.
As evening approached, Qiu Xiang saw her and said helplessly, "Come out for a walk with me."
Qiu Xiang happily agreed.
The two walked towards the main gate, where Lan Xiucheng was still waiting, looking listless.
The Lan family is not what it used to be; their parents are sick in bed and both need money.
After he brought the doctor back, he learned that his sister had been framed by Ning Yue. He felt extremely guilty and wanted to visit his sister's grave and burn some paper money so that she could have a better life in the afterlife.
