Chapter 91 It’s you, it’s you who hurt me!
Lan Xiyue slowly got off the bed and stretched lazily, "It's a mess, so be it. It has nothing to do with our Xilingyuan."
"Ah? Miss, but another doctor just went to Qingfeng Courtyard. The old lady has been in poor health in recent years. No one knows what happened in Lingbao Courtyard this morning. The master and the old lady were both supported by servants to go back.
After the master and the old lady left, Aunt Hong had the guards guard Lingbao Courtyard, and no one was allowed to enter or leave, so she didn't find out what happened in Lingbao Courtyard. Miss, don't you want to go and take a look at Qingfeng Courtyard?"
Lan Xiyue frowned slightly when she heard this. Something happened in the mansion, and it would be abnormal if she didn't show up.
So, she opened her red lips and said, "Pack up and go to Qingfeng Courtyard."
Upon hearing this, Chuchun quickly responded and turned around to go out and get some hot water.
After washing up, Lan Xiyue changed into a simple white dress with some red plum blossom embroidery on it. Her clothes looked fluttering, like a fairy descending to earth.
She packed up simply and headed towards Qingfeng Courtyard with Chuchun.
As soon as she entered Qingfeng Courtyard, the maid at the door saw Lan Xiyue and wanted to go in to report, but Lan Xiyue stopped her with a look.
The maid was stunned by Lan Xiyue's gaze, lowered her head and dared not move.
At this time, the old lady's weak voice rang out in the hall: "What sin has our mansion committed?"
"Old Madam, don't get excited. You just woke up. The doctor just told you not to get excited. It's not good for your health."
Lan Jiaoyun's lips curled slightly, a bit gloating, "Grandma, Father, my second sister is usually gentle and dignified, and abides by etiquette. How could she be so shameless now and have an affair with someone else?"
Upon hearing this, Lan Zhenrong roared, "Shut up! Cough cough cough..." His eyes were wide open and his face was ashen.
Lan Jiaoyun was frightened by the roar. She hid behind her aunt and pouted in grievance, "Father, why are you so mean to me? I didn't say anything wrong. Just now, weren't you so angry that you vomited blood and fainted?"
Aunt Hong turned around and glared at her daughter coquettishly, signaling her not to say anything more.
Lan Jiaoyun closed her mouth, but she couldn't stop smiling.
Aunt Hong walked over and took Lan Zhenrong's arm. "Master, what should we do now? Madam is paralyzed and can't get up, and the second young lady is..."
Lan Zhenrong shook off Aunt Hong's hand and paced back and forth in the hall in annoyance.
"Master, you and the old lady fainted just now. I have ordered the guards to guard Lingbao Courtyard, not allowing anyone to approach or leave. Third Young Master Yun is still in Lingbao Courtyard. What do you think we should do?"
The old lady tapped her cane, her eyes filled with pain and disappointment.
"Zhenrong! Rou'er has always been well-behaved, how could she do such a thing?"
Lan Xiyue listened for a while before walking in.
Lan Xiyue bowed slightly, "Grandma, Father."
Lan Jiaoyun looked at Lan Xiyue with a smile on her face: "Sister, you are late, but you missed a wonderful show!"
Lan Xiyue turned her head, her eyes swept over Lan Jiaoyun with a cold smile, and the corner of her mouth curled up into a faint smile, "Oh? What's the good show?"
Upon hearing this, Lan Zhenrong frowned slightly and glared at Lan Jiaoyun. Lan Jiaoyun pouted reluctantly but ultimately said nothing more.
The atmosphere in the hall fell into a subtle silence for a moment.
At this moment, a guard hurried in, saluted, and said urgently, "Master, this is bad! The second young lady is about to commit suicide."
Lan Zhenrong's face was very ugly. He turned back to look at the old lady and said, "Mother, I will go check on that evil girl right away."
The old lady waved her hand gently and said, "Go, go. It's such a misfortune for our family. Such a misfortune for our family!" After that, she slowly returned to her room with the support of Nanny Li.
Lan Zhenrong and his group hurried to Lingbaoyuan. Along the way, the atmosphere was depressing and suffocating.
As soon as I reached the gate, I heard Yun Hua shouting, "Uncle, I don't know why I'm here! Someone must have framed me and my second cousin!"
Lan Zhenrong snorted coldly, his eyes sharp as a knife: "Butler, quickly go to the Protectorate Mansion and ask the people from the Protectorate Mansion to come over."
The butler responded and left in a hurry.
Yun Hua saw Lan Xiyue behind him and pointed at her: "Uncle, it's my eldest cousin! All of this was framed by my eldest cousin to frame my second cousin and me! Last night I clearly..."
Lan Xiyue heard this and a hint of a smile appeared on her lips: "Third cousin, what are you saying? I didn't even know that you came to the Marquis' Mansion last night, so how could I have plotted against you? What did I plot against you, third cousin?"
"I...you..." Yun Hua was furious. He was clearly in his eldest cousin's room last night, but why was he in his second cousin's room, and with her...
Yun Hua could only turn her gaze to Lan Zhenrong again: "Uncle, please believe me! What I said is true! I was really plotted against by someone, and that's why I had an affair with my second sister..."
At this moment, another urgent cry came from the room: "Second Miss, don't!"
"Go away! Don't come over here! I won't live anymore. Woo…"
Lan Zhenrong's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it. He strode into the room. Inside the room, Lan Lingrou was in tears, holding a pair of sharp scissors in her hand, with the sharp tip pressed tightly against her neck.
"What the hell are you doing?"
Lan Lingrou's body trembled violently, and the scissors in her hand shook slightly. She cried, "Father, I have no face to live anymore."
Lan Zhenrong was furious. He flicked his sleeves and said, "Hmph! You still know how to live without shame. What happened last night?"
When Lan Lingrou heard this, tears burst out like a flood. She cried bitterly but couldn't utter a word. She didn't know why this happened.
Lan Zhenrong looked at his daughter, whom he had high hopes for, and felt extremely disappointed. Everything was ruined.
His eyes were blazing with fire as he angrily said, "Put down the scissors! Now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to finalize your marriage with Yun Hua as soon as possible. I've already asked the housekeeper to notify your maternal family to come to the Marquis' Mansion."
"No... I don't want to marry my third cousin!" Lan Lingrou screamed in fear, her eyes filled with despair and unwillingness. "Father, how can I marry my third cousin? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already promised me that he will ask the Emperor for permission to make me the Crown Princess soon!"
Upon hearing this, Lan Zhenrong put his hands behind his back, his face cold.
Lan Jiaoyun sneered, "Second sister, you are already a fallen woman, yet you still dream of marrying the prince? Aren't you afraid that if the prince finds out, he will blame our entire mansion?"
Lan Lingrou's face turned pale in an instant. She dropped her hands and shook her head dejectedly, "No..."
Suddenly, Lan Lingrou looked at Lan Xiyue behind her, "Lan Xiyue! It's you, you hurt me! You bitch!"
