Chapter 63 The Heartless Mother Luo
Luo Xiangfu opened her eyes and saw the familiar bed curtains.
My throat is very sore because it was pinched.
Before she could call her maid Lian'er, a gentle voice rang out.
"Xiangfu, you're awake!"
Luo Xiangfu looked up and saw a refined and handsome face.
Even though she is middle-aged, she still gives people a very refreshing feeling.
Luo Xiangfu closed her eyes and stopped looking at him, her voice hoarse as she said, "What are you doing here? Didn't you say you were cutting ties with me?"
The man said with a pained expression, "I had no idea about that letter. It was sent by my wife. How could I possibly distance myself from you?"
Luo Xiangfu struggled to sit up, her eyes brimming with tears, and said, "Really?"
The man pulled Luo Xiangfu into his arms. "Of course it's true. Don't you know my feelings? If I were really that heartless and ungrateful, why would I come to see you?"
Luo Xiangfu burst into tears, "Xuan Lang, I thought you didn't want me anymore!"
Yang Wenxuan quickly coaxed her for a while, saying, "My heart is as clear as the sun and moon for you. No matter what happens in the future, you must believe in me!"
Luo Xiangfu nodded weakly.
Seeing that she had calmed down a bit, Yang Wenxuan asked tentatively, "But Xiangfu, how come you never told me that you actually know Princess Jinzhi! I heard that she rescued you from prison. You and her?"
Luo Xiangfu took out a silk handkerchief to wipe her tears. "Three years ago, I did a favor for the princess, and she promised me a favor: she would grant me whatever I asked for. Everyone in the capital knows this."
Qin Jinzhi stormed into the Ministry of Justice prison and took away a madam, which caused a stir in the capital, but no one found it strange.
Despite being a madam, Luo Xiangfu still held some influence in the capital, a place teeming with powerful and influential people.
For no other reason than that the information she possessed was something that many people couldn't obtain even with a large sum of money.
Three years ago, Qin Jinzhi was looking for a piece of ancient cold iron to forge a sword for the Prince of Zhenbei.
But this thousand-year-old cold iron has only been heard of in legends, and people say that Qin Jinzhi is indulging in wishful thinking.
So Qin Jinzhi declared that as long as someone could find her the Cold Iron, she would grant that person one condition, any condition would do.
Three months later, Luo Xiangfu delivered the cold iron she had found to the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.
This was said by Qin Jinzhi herself, witnessed by almost everyone in Beijing.
You can enter the gates of her Zhenbei Prince's Mansion under any conditions.
Luo Xiangfu became famous overnight because of this incident!
Yang Wenxuan had heard about this, but he was still somewhat surprised. "You and the princess have such a connection? I thought..."
It seems that Qin Jinzhi is not behind Tianxianglou.
Even so, Luo Xiangfu probably didn't have any powerful figures backing her.
The reason she was able to remain in power in the capital was because of the information she possessed.
Otherwise, Luo Xiangfu wouldn't have suffered such torture, and when things went wrong, she could only turn to Qin Jinzhi, who had once promised her favor.
That makes everything much easier.
Luo Xiangfu asked, looking completely bewildered, "What did you think?"
Yang Wenxuan held her shoulders with both hands and said earnestly, "That princess is indeed of noble status, but she is not a kind person. You must not have anything to do with her in the future."
Luo Xiangfu said with a troubled expression, "However, I have offended Minister Li of the Ministry of Justice. His son died in my Tianxiang Tower for some unknown reason. If I sever ties with the princess, I am afraid my life will be in danger."
Yang Wenxuan, however, said with a hint of excitement in his eyes, "I'm here, how could I let anything happen to you?"
Luo Xiangfu pushed him away and leaned weakly against the headboard.
"You're just a palace compiler, how can you possibly stand up to the Minister? When your wife sends another farewell letter, I'll have nowhere to cry."
Yang Wenxuan hurriedly said, "Xiangfu, I promise, this kind of thing will never happen again. You have to believe me!"
Luo Xiangfu laughed and slapped his face with a silk handkerchief. "Alright, I was just teasing you. I can't even protect myself right now, how can I drag you into this? The princess is willing to save me out of old friendship, so of course she won't abandon me. I'll go and thank her tomorrow, and the Minister won't make things difficult for me because of the princess."
Yang Wenxuan replied, "There are other people in this world who can protect you besides the princess."
Luo Xiangfu said with great distress, "Then who else can I ask for help?"
Yang Wenxuan said smugly, "Under the whole heaven, all land belongs to the king. Who can be bigger than the royal family? We can go and ask the Sixth Prince for help."
Luo Xiangfu looked surprised, "The Sixth Prince? How could someone like us, from the lowest class, possibly beg for the Sixth Prince's favor?"
Yang Wenxuan grasped her hand and said, "Others are naturally not suitable, but I come from the Yang family of Hongnong. The sixth prince's mother, Consort Yang, is from the same clan as me."
Luo Xiangfu was even more surprised, "But even if you and the Sixth Prince's mother are from the same clan, would the Sixth Prince help us for no reason?"
Yang Wenxuan immediately said, "We still have Tianxiang Tower! As long as you give Tianxiang Tower to the Sixth Prince, he will definitely protect you. You will still be the owner of Tianxiang Tower, and you will have the Sixth Prince as your backer. In the future, who in the capital will dare to touch you!"
Luo Xiangfu's eyes lit up, "Really! If we give Tianxiang Tower to the Sixth Prince, he really can protect me!"
"Of course! Tomorrow, prepare the land deed, and I will take you to see the Sixth Prince!"
Luo Xiangfu threw herself into Yang Wenxuan's arms and said excitedly, "Xuanlang, you're the best to me!"
Yang Wenxuan held Luo Xiangfu in his arms, but his eyes gleamed with excitement.
Tianxianglou amasss millions of taels of silver every year!
If he could offer such a large piece of fat meat to the Sixth Prince.
Then he won't be able to gain a foothold in front of the Sixth Prince!
When the sixth prince ascends the throne in the future, he will have no worries about his future!
Yang Wenxuan was envisioning his future career, but he didn't notice the strange expression on Luo Xiangfu's face in his arms.
After Yang Wenxuan left, Qin Jinzhi came out of the inner room.
Luo Xiangfu burst into unrestrained laughter upon seeing her.
"That idiot, he just betrayed the Sixth Prince like that. If I were the Sixth Prince, I would beat him to death."
Qin Jinzhi sat down at the table. "It's all thanks to your superb acting skills. If I opened a theater and invited you to perform, I could probably make a lot of money."
Luo Xiangfu said without any politeness, "Pour me a glass of water. I've been acting for so long, my throat hurts so much I'm about to hit someone."
Since she woke up, Yang Wenxuan hasn't said a single word about her health.
Why pretend to be lovers?
Qin Jinzhi poured her a glass of water.
Luo Xiangfu drank some water, and her throat felt much better.
She said gloatingly, "So it was the Sixth Prince who wanted Tianxiang Tower. That's it. Once Minister Li finds out what's on Yang Wenxuan, the Sixth Prince will be in big trouble."
Qin Jinzhi laughed out loud, "People think you make vows of eternal love to him every day, but you secretly let someone else take the blame. Luo's mother is so ruthless."
Luo Xiangfu flicked her silk handkerchief, "No, no, with the princess in front of me, my heart is as white as can be."
A year ago, Yang Wenxuan suddenly appeared around Luo Xiangfu.
Luo Xiangfu immediately realized that Yang Wenxuan had come for her.
Although she could be described as having a beautiful face, she was, after all, past her prime.
The main problem is that Yang Wenxuan is really pitifully stupid.
He thought he had everything under control, but little did he know that Luo Xiangfu had almost figured out everything about him.
Knowing that his motives were impure, Luo Xiangfu secretly transferred some of the shady dealings and assets of Tianxianglou to Yang Wenxuan's name.
If nothing serious happens, these things will naturally be fine.
But if something goes wrong, Yang Wenxuan will naturally be the scapegoat.
However, although Yang Wenxuan was foolish, she was too beautiful.
Luo Xiangfu thought it was like Tang Sanzang's flesh being delivered to her door, so she decided to take it.
I never expected that Yang Wenxuan was actually one of the Sixth Prince's men.
Luo Xiangfu asked with a puzzled look, "So, the Sixth Prince killed someone and wanted to frame Tianxiang Tower?"
