It doesn't seem right!
If Lu Jiaxue was taking a concubine, he definitely wouldn't be getting married! He wasn't surprised at all just now...
Luo Shenyuan's heart sank. He was away from the mansion, so he couldn't closely monitor what was going on there. He was afraid someone might have taken advantage of the situation and gotten in!
Luo Shenyuan didn't even say goodbye to Jiang Chunyan and immediately left Zhongzhimen. His entourage and guards were waiting outside. After getting on the carriage, he said gloomily, "Return home!"
The carriage sped along the road. Just as it reached the edge of the official road, someone ran up and knelt down to announce, "Sir... Four secret guards in the palace were killed. They were strangled with extremely thin steel wire, killing them silently. There are spies among the guards, and I have personally selected four people to be eliminated. The third wife... the third wife has also disappeared!"
It’s too late after all!
Luo Shenyuan asked coldly, "I said carriages are not allowed to leave the house, but did any carriages leave the house?"
"Yes... Lord Cheng's carriage left. I initially tried to stop him from leaving the house, but Master said... Lord Cheng had urgent matters to attend to, so why wouldn't he let him go? He then started to scold us... I couldn't stand it any longer, and since there was nothing in the carriage, I had no choice but to let Lord Cheng leave."
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Shenyuan took a deep breath and suddenly punched the small table in the car!
The man was so frightened that he immediately fell to the ground, not daring to breathe.
Luo Shenyuan immediately said to the coachman, "No need to go back, let's go to Lu's house!" The carriage started quickly. He closed his eyes and leaned against the wall, feeling pain on the side of his hand.
Cheng Lang! It was actually him.
Today, except for the guests, no one else can get in. The Cheng family was invited.
Cheng Lang's reminder of the dowry was intended to ease others' guard, but Luo Yining had never been on guard against him. Not only was she not on guard, she actually trusted Cheng Lang immensely. This trust was no less than her trust in him. Furthermore, it wasn't difficult for Cheng Lang's men to silently eliminate the sentry.
He was still careless. Despite setting up so many defenses, he was delayed by Xu Wei's affairs, allowing Cheng Lang to take advantage of the opportunity.

The carriage carrying the bride was filled with the clamor of gongs and drums, attracting many young boys who came out to watch, and the accompanying women distributed dried fruits and candies.
The procession walked busily to the alley not far from Lu's house, with a constant stream of people. At this moment, a wedding procession also came from the alley and mixed with this procession. They were also accompanied by a large group of wedding processions. They must be from a wealthy family and their clothing and appearance were similar.
The original procession had been gradually diverted by the Ningyuan Marquis's guides. The group that had sneaked in from the alley was actually heading towards the Ningyuan Marquis's residence. No one seemed to notice, and they continued to march towards the Ningyuan Marquis' residence, beating drums and gongs. The two welcoming groups were getting further and further away.
The people who were following looked at each other in confusion. How could there be two teams? Which team should they follow?
The leader took a look and said, "Divide the troops into two groups. You lead the people to follow the Sixth Miss. I will follow the bridal sedan chair from the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion. Hey! Your Excellency is indeed very clever. He actually conjured up two bridal sedan chairs. I have never seen anything like this in my life!"
A group of people whispered to each other and split into two groups. One group followed the sedan chair that was going to Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion, and the other group sent someone to quickly tell Lord Luo.
Luo Shenyuan had a backup plan. He thought Lu Jiaxue might switch things up again. If Yi Ning disappeared, and two more people showed up in the wedding procession, he would definitely take a look at the sedan chair that had suddenly appeared.
He summoned his guards and immediately rushed to the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion without stopping.
As the sedan chair was about to enter the house, dried fruits and copper coins were scattered around, and people gathered at the entrance to watch the ceremony. The Ningyuan Marquis's residence was extremely lively, and the surrounding people came to ask for copper coins. Curious guests stood outside to watch. As the sedan chair entered the Lu residence, the sedan bearers had already stepped through the door. Suddenly, a large group of guards in thick coats and carrying swords appeared from behind and stopped the sedan chair.
The crowd erupted in chaos. A man who looked like a manager from the Ningyuan Marquis's residence emerged and demanded, "Who are you? How dare you mess with the Ningyuan Marquis's residence!" The well-trained guards rushed out upon hearing the commotion. Their origins were unknown, but their martial arts were highly skilled. These were guards trained by Luo Shenyuan himself, practically his trump card. They were immediately stopped.
Luo Shenyuan's carriage arrived a little late. He got off and walked a few steps to the sedan chair. The crowd around him was buzzing with conversation. What on earth was going on?
Whether it was a bride kidnapping or something, it happened to the Lu family!
Someone rushed in to ask Lu Jiaxue to come, but Luo Shenyuan didn't care. What trump card, what Lu Jiaxue? If Luo Yining was abducted from him, he was afraid he would really lose control and go crazy!
There were two bridal sedans. This one was sent to the Lu family. It was clear which one to stop. Luo Yining must not be sent to the Lu family and greet others!
Luo Shenyuan pulled aside the curtain of the sedan chair and pulled open the man's veil.
The gold-red veil slowly fell down, and what he saw was a face of unparalleled beauty.
Lianxi smiled slightly and whispered, "I originally had feelings for Lord Luo, but he remained unmoved. Why did you come here in person to snatch my bride away today? Of course, if you want to snatch me away, I am willing to be snatched away by you. The governor also said that if you want me, you can take me back immediately."
Luo Shenyuan's hands, white as he gripped the sedan chair curtain, gave a cold smile, "Miss Lianxi wants to marry the governor, so I won't stand in her way."
The curtain was drawn hard, but Lu Jiaxue still hadn't shown up. Of course, the person inside wasn't Luo Yining, so he didn't care!
Lianxi covered her head with the veil: "In that case, I will go in, Lord Luo."
Luo Shenyuan stood there, his back straight as a pine tree. He waved for the guards to move aside, saying that he was not inside.
