As luck would have it, Lu Yanluo had just returned to the capital and Chu Xuan had also arrived in Fenghua Town, and the two missed each other again by accident.

In the main courtyard of the Liu family, Chu Xuan, who already knew everything, was no longer polite as he was last time. His men searched the Liu family extensively, while Chu Xuan stood in the courtyard, looking coldly at Liu's father and Liu Yu.

"Do you know who you brought back to Liu Mansion? She is my princess! How dare you, an ignorant and unruly person, deceive me! What crime should you be punished for?"

Father Liu was startled. He really didn't know that Lu Yanluo was the princess, nor did he know that the first person to come to the mansion to look for someone was the prince of the current dynasty.

Out of selfish motives at the time, he concealed the fact that Lu Yanluo was in the Liu Mansion. Now he was afraid that it would bring fatal disaster to the Liu family.

Just as Father Liu was anxious to kneel down and apologize, a pair of hands suddenly reached out from behind and firmly helped him up.

Liu Yu stood tall and straight in front of Chu Xuan without any fear. She fought back, "Your Highness, what you said is wrong. Our Liu family is not hiding the princess. On the contrary, we saved her. The princess is living on the streets and has trouble getting food and shelter. If I hadn't brought her back, would I have to watch the brothel's madam take the princess back and abuse her?"

Chu Xuan's originally angry expression suddenly froze, and he asked back, "What did you say?"

Liu Yu looked at Chu Xuan motionlessly with sarcasm in her eyes.

"When I first met Miss Lu, I happened to see the thugs from the brothel trying to attack Miss Lu and Miss Ayun. If it weren't for Miss Lu's great skills, they would have succeeded long ago. I admire Miss Lu's skills and courage very much, so I took the liberty of inviting her to my home and casually arranged to send Miss Lu back to Beijing."

"Our Liu family does not have the dirty thoughts towards Miss Lu that the prince thinks. We have already sent people to send Miss Lu and Miss Ayun back to the capital this morning. They must have already arrived in the capital by now. If the prince wants to question them, why not go and question Miss Lu in person and then come to the mansion to question them later."

The situation was a bit tense for a while. Chu Xuan was expressionless, and Liu Yu refused to give in. The two men confronted each other in the yard. Liu's father behind them was terrified, fearing that Chu Xuan would be unhappy and chop Liu Yu with a knife.

"Okay." Chu Xuan raised his whip and pointed at Liu Yu, his eyes meaningful: "Liu Yu, this king will remember you. After finding the princess, this king will personally investigate. If it is a favor, our Yewang Mansion will definitely repay you. If it is a grudge, then no matter where in the world, this king will get it back for the princess."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Xuan whipped his horse whip and rode away. Lu Yanluo had already returned to the capital, and he couldn't wait to see her. He also had to bring the two little darlings who had run away from home back home as soon as possible.

When Chu Xuan rode his horse back at full speed, Lu Yanluo was already standing at the gate of Prince Ye's Mansion. The servants came out and saw that it was the princess who had returned, and hurriedly welcomed her in with surprise.

Ayun followed Lu Yanluo closely, not leaving her side for a moment. This place was too big, and there were guards everywhere. She was afraid that if something went wrong, the guards would draw their swords and kill her.

Lu Yanluo clearly sensed Ayun's stiffness and rigidity. She said to Xiaoran, who was so excited that she didn't know what to do when she saw her come back, "This is a friend I rescued on the road. Her name is Ayun. Go find a place for her so she can have a good rest."

Xiao Ran looked hesitant, and it was obvious that she had something to say to Lu Yanluo, but she still followed Lu Yanluo's arrangements and took Ayun away.

Everything in the mansion was the same as before, as if she had only been away for a moment. She hurried all the way back to Yun Yayuan. She was now eager to see the two children, Chu Yao and Chu Yuan, and wondered whether Chu Xuan had found them that day.

There was silence in Yunya Garden. Lu Yanluo was disappointed that the child was not found...

During the time when she was kidnapped by Old Man Li, Lu Yanluo had thought about the whole thing. She guessed that someone deliberately used the children to lure her into the game. Since the person behind the scenes had succeeded, there was no point in kidnapping two children. Moreover, kidnapping the emperor's grandson was no trivial matter.

So Lu Yanluo guessed that the two children should have been sent back to the mansion long ago, but now it seems that she was thinking too well.

Lu Yanluo hurriedly came out of Yun Yayuan and wanted to find Chu Xuan. She wanted to tell him everything that had happened recently and whether her sudden disappearance had made Chu Xuan anxious.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked out of Yun Yayuan, Lu Yanluo met an unexpected person - Nan'an.

Nan'an obviously knew who she was. She knelt down and kowtowed respectfully. Then she raised her face, which was somewhat similar to Lu Yanluo, and said, "My name is Nan'an. I pay my respects to my sister, the princess."

Looking at the face in front of her, Lu Yanluo was a little confused: "Who are you?"

If she was not mistaken, there was a hint of pity in Nan'an's eyes when he looked at her.

"In reply to your question, my name is Nan'an, and I am the concubine given to the prince by His Majesty." Nan'an said in a light tone.

Lu Yanluo nodded and understood. It seemed that the emperor knew about her disappearance, so he took this opportunity to send someone to the Night Palace, and sent someone who looked so similar to herself, obviously to make Chu Xuan fall in love with her.

Lu Yanluo laughed sarcastically: "The world is really magical, I didn't know that there is a person in this world who looks so much like me. If you don't know, you would think she is my twin sister. Your Majesty is really worried."

How could Nan'an not hear the dissatisfaction in Lu Yanluo's words, but he still remained indifferent and did not say a word.

She had done everything she could to get into the Ye Palace, so no matter who it was, no one could let her leave, especially a princess who had been kidnapped and had a bad reputation.

"Princess, are you looking for the prince? The prince has gone out and is not in the mansion. If you are anxious to see the prince, I can find someone to go find him and bring him back."

Lu Yanluo was a little annoyed. Regardless of Nan'an's status, she acted like a hostess in front of her and took advantage of her like a outsider.

"No need. Although I have been away for a few days, I can still stay in the Yewang Mansion. I will wait for Chu Xuan in the study today. Miss Nan'an, don't worry about the rest."

Nan An did not comment, but nodded politely and said, "Then I will ask someone to prepare tea and snacks for you, Princess. Please help yourself."

Nan'an opened the door of the study, turned around and was about to leave.

"Miss Nan'an." Lu Yanluo called Nan'an, looked her up and down without any courtesy, and said in a calm voice: "I don't care who sent you to the Night King's Mansion. First of all, you must understand that in this mansion, whether I am here or not, you are the only mistress of the mansion. If Chu Xuan agrees, then you are a concubine. If Chu Xuan disagrees, then you can only be a maid."

"Could Miss Nan'an possibly recognize this?"

Lu Yanluo's words successfully shattered Nan'an's disguised mask, revealing his sinister heart.
