Lan Xi bowed her head in agreement before she turned around and walked out of the room. Seeing Lan Xin still standing in front of me with an uneasy expression, I knew that she wasn't normally a servant in front of me and wasn't used to serving me. I didn't have any intention of making things difficult for her as I pointed outside the screen and said, "Go and help Lan Xi!"

Lan Xin felt as if she had been granted amnesty. She let out a sigh of relief, took two steps back, bent her knees, and bowed. Then, she actually ran off in pursuit.

I couldn't help but secretly mock him in my heart. I didn't know when I would possess such dignity.

He was so scared that even the maidservants could not stand up straight!

Since I sat there bored, I simply closed my eyes to rest. In my heart, I secretly went through the whole thing.

On the surface, this matter looked profound and endless, but as long as one could see through the joints, it would only be a small trick to trick the eyes!

In terms of his motives, this person was neither close to my grandmother nor close to me. The biggest purpose of all these actions was to muddy the waters. I was disturbed, and my grandmother was not allowed to leave the house as she pleased.

One after another, the designs were so ingenious that one had to have the heart of a crystal.

Other than her, I can't think of anyone else in this mansion with such methods and such decisiveness!

However, if he was certain that she was the one who did it, then he would have another doubt.

If this was really her doing, then it didn't make sense at all. Since she's here to help me with this matter, she should be the one supporting me. Even if she doesn't like me, she still wouldn't help me settle things, and instead wants to be so unfair at home. When I press down the gourd and scoop up the ladle, it makes a huge disturbance in the spring water, making me even busier. I simply can't be bothered to help His Royal Highness find the 'last words of the late emperor' that he wanted.

Speaking of Prince Qi, ever since we saw each other in the teahouse, due to Miss Xue's incident, we've parted on bad terms. It's been a long time since we've seen each other, and we don't know what he's thinking.

If you think about it carefully, I can be considered to have crossed the river in muddleheaded state. I can't even protect myself anymore. Originally, he thought that after the funeral of his mother, the widows and the eldest daughter would go for a month to show their filial piety in place of their mother. However, because of Qin Jin's good fortune, the later generations would never forget their benevolence, and they would also never forget the affection of their mother's uncle.

On the surface, my grandfather was naturally the Lu family.

However, the Lu family was far away in the capital, and even if they rode a fast horse, it would still take them twelve to thirteen days to get there. However, the Lu family was far away in the capital, and even if they rode a fast horse, it would take them twelve to thirteen days to reach it.

In other words, it would be impossible to get there without a month's time.

It would take half a year to go back and forth like this. Even if my father had wanted me to climb the tree, my grandmother would never have the patience to wait until then. However, etiquette couldn't be wasted. After all, the Yang family was one of the top families in the White City. Even if there were internal conflicts, they wouldn't show fear outside and show ridicule to others. It was precisely because of this loophole that I had to call Little Lu "Ninth Aunt". Although they were not of the same house, they were still members of the Lu Family.

With my orders here and Little Lu's activities over there, I'm not afraid that it won't work.

As long as I can enter the Xue Clan, I will naturally have the opportunity to contact Master Xue.

Based on my mother's confidence in my previous life, she guaranteed that as long as I entered the Xue Manor, the back of the Xue Clan would definitely have a plot of land where I could stand. I was confident that I could get what I wanted from Master Xue.

Furthermore, I am also holding a piece of the past of Master Xue, his mother and Aunt Wang in my hands …

Even if he had forgotten everything, I still wanted to remind him of what he owed the woman in the coffin back then, and how he wrongly thought about the woman who was imprisoned in his parents' backyard and could not even move a single inch, thinking about something he shouldn't have done, thinking about something he shouldn't have …

However, this matter had been mixed up and delayed by her. It was impossible to explain ethics.

After I finished all these things one day earlier, wouldn't she have been able to escape from me one day earlier?

I suddenly thought of her sad and forlorn expression a few months ago when she had learned that her son, the Empress Mother, was happy and that she was to choose a consort for Prince Qi.

Was it because she saw how much the King had cared for me, and because all the girls were jealous of each other when they were facing their sweetheart, she decided to take revenge?

The moment this thought popped out, I immediately rejected it.

Not to mention that Lan Xin was such a cautious person, just based on her cleverness, she wouldn't be able to tell. The longer the delay, the more connections I have with the Prayer King, the stronger his desire to control me, and the harder it is for me to escape from it.

This kind of thing, only the quick knife cut the mess, only then came complete.

I stroke the cloud embroidery on my sleeve over and over again, unable to make up my mind. Was this her doing or not? If it was hers, why would she do that?

Occasionally, there was a sound of clashing porcelain in her ears. When she raised her head, she unexpectedly bumped into Lan Ling, who had a worried look on her face.

I sighed and straightened up. He couldn't help but lean against the wall when he was lost in thought. Now that he had kept his body, he felt an abnormal aching in his back and even his waist and legs seemed to be weak.

Lan Li was startled by the pained expression on my face and hurried to help me.

The pain in my waist was like flowing water. It felt like my back had been crushed by a huge rock. My heart turned cold. This feeling couldn't be any more familiar.

"Miss, you …?"

Lan Ling held my hand, pale and hesitant.

I hurriedly nodded and sighed. "It's really unfortunate!" He then laughed at himself. "This can also be considered as' the rain falling during the night ', right?"

Lan Lingyun quickly walked out and instructed Tao'er, who was standing by the door, to call for Tang Mu Zi to add the stove and cook the red dates and ginger soup in the kitchen. When the ladies had brought in some hot water and scrubbed my body, she opened the door of the cabinet and brought me a moon incident filled with ashes. She dressed me up, rolled up her bloodstained dress into a roll, and placed it by my side before taking out a clean moon-white robe for me to put on, then asked me, "It's already the early morning, and Miss has been tired for the entire day. Why don't you rest for the night and try again tomorrow?"

Lan Li, this is because you feel sorry for my body.

It was six months after my eleventh birthday. He invited a doctor who was good at seeing women sick to ask for a safe meridian, saying that it was because his body had always been strong that he was so young that he only had to undergo menstruation. However, because he was still young and lacked natural endowments, he was prone to suffer from the effects of anemia. Plus, I was so worried that I didn't come here for two or three months at a time, since I often had sleepless nights.

Whenever they passed by, their stomachs would be wracked with pain. Only by drinking some warm soup and lying on the bed with a thick quilt over their heads and two or three hot soup gras under their feet would they be able to relieve themselves.

I bitterly smiled and sighed. I tugged at my clothes and said, "Where is my good fortune?" Quickly find some thick clothes for me to wear! "

Lan Li also knew in her heart that if she wanted to get a good night's sleep, it would be easy to say, but how difficult would it be to do it? It wasn't easy for me to get my authority as a butler, and with that Aunt Mo glaring at me like a tiger, I can't take half a step wrong. I don't know when my father will be home, if the family is still this messy, I'm afraid that if I extended my hand to hold the house, it will be so hot that I can't hold it properly.

Lan Li also sighed deeply, and with a bitter face, she lowered her head and turned it around in the wardrobe. Not long later, the sound of footsteps and metallic clangs could be heard from outside the screen. Lan Xi and Lan Xi walked with their hands hanging by their sides and softly replied, "Miss, we've already prepared the things you wanted!"

Lan Ling gave a casual answer, but still struggled to pick up clothes in the cupboard.

He took out a goose yellow Mandarin Duck Vine pearl buckle and put it on his coat. The color was too bright! He took out a moon-white muslin knee-length cotton suit. It was too simple to suppress! He took out a piece of ginger, thin cotton, flowing clouds and blessings, and weighed it in his hand, feeling that it wasn't warm enough …

Seeing that Lan Lingyun was extremely busy, I endured the pain in my stomach as I casually chatted with the two maidservants, "What's wrong? The words of Lady Lan Li are the imperial edict, right? Have you guys cooked the lily seed soup? "

Perhaps it was because my eyebrows were slightly knitted, but the two maidservants only thought that I was angry and were so scared that they trembled. They hurriedly kneeled on the ground and said in a daze, "No! No! "The servants and maids both cooked the lily seed soup and red dates and ginger soup!"

For a moment, I didn't know what to say.

Initially, I thought it was just a joke, but I didn't want to scare the two of them to such a state. He told her to get up, and only looked down at the carefully chosen clothes.

The pain was like a wave, one wave after another, and even though I was sitting there quietly, I felt as if I was tiptoeing along the edge of a knife. The pain was heart-wrenching, and soon, my back was cold and wet.

A pair of eyes suddenly appeared from the side of the screen and stealthily glanced at me. After seeing me looking at her, she hurriedly turned her gaze and whispered to the busy Lan Lingyun:

"Elder sister, even though a few braziers were burnt here, Miss, she …" "Why don't you bring in a bowl of ginger soup first!"

It was none other than Lan Zhi's sister, Tao Er.

Lan Li froze for a moment, then slapped her forehead and said, "I'm not as thoughtful as you think!" "Just do as little sister says!" He then took the dark patterns jacket of the Heaven's Cyan which was already hot from the incense cage and draped it over my shoulders. He wore a dark blue embroidered horse mask skirt on one hand and a blue embroidered 100% dress on the other hand as he asked with a frown, "Miss, which one do you think is better?

After a while, Tao Er came in with a plate of red dates and ginger soup. Lan Xi went up to serve me and drank it. I pointed to Lan Liang on the right and said, "Since we have already used the passionflower on top, wearing the Jade Magnolia Flower underneath would seem a bit out of place. It would be better to just use this one to scatter the flowers."

Lan Lingyun quickly responded and spread out her skirt. She took off her inner and outer clothes one by one from the lavender cage and carefully put them on me.

After all, it was the clothes that had been burned by the fire. A trace of warmth seemed to seep into my skin, causing me to feel a bit more at ease.

A moment later Lan Ling pulled out a pair of thick cotton boots from under the box and placed them on top of the cocoon, waiting for me to put them on when I went out.

After drinking the lotus seed soup with the maidservants, it was finally Zi Zheng's turn. There was still no news from the other side of the room, so I laid on the warm brick bed and ordered Lan Li, "Go and watch them. As long as no one dares to disturb them, don't let any of them sleep! I'd like to see who has such a tough back! Do not give them tea or sheets, and take away the official rooms and brazier in that room. Don't all of you have bones? Let's see how long they can hold out for. "

Tea, bedding, food, all of these things were fine for the time being. It was just that they had gone to the brazier, which was located in a freezing place in the Northern Kingdom, and was also the outermost chamber. How could they not be cold?

Lan Ling was momentarily shocked that I had used such a lightning technique. She couldn't help but reveal a strange expression on her face. After thinking about how he was also in a dire situation, he decided to cover up the lawsuit on his face and go out to give orders.

Also, tell them. The twenty to thirty people in this room had been frozen and starved, but not everyone had been wrong. Perhaps one or two, perhaps four or five, had done something unscrupulous that had caused everyone to be punished together. I don't know who did it, but it must be among you. As long as you can't find it, I will not let you out for a day. "" No, no. Recently, their home was not peaceful and a lot of people had died. Thus, it was easy to cause a ruckus, and only this one or two were needed. "I assured them that if they were to die, I would naturally follow my mother's lead and do all the work for them!

Adding loyal servants to the dead was a good thing to add to their glory; however, since they were still alive, it would be a waste to say that they would be buried under the etiquette of loyal servants.

It was one thing to say, "This man is loyal to the heart, and his mother passed away with deep hatred in her heart." Even though she was inside the flowery curtain, she was still loyal to the heart. Who would stick their neck out for a servant?

Lan Li understood what I meant. She didn't seem to agree with my ungrateful behaviour, and her expression didn't look good. In the end, it wasn't good to reject me. With a gloomy face, she lifted the cotton curtain and left to pass on the message.

I was still lying on the kang, wrapped in a thick quilt, thinking about it.

Since he couldn't figure out what her motive was, he didn't have to worry about it. What mattered was figuring out how she had done it.

Today, the people in my house were in a state of panic, and I once overheard the gatekeepers in my yard chattering that my house was not clean, that I had lost my life because of grievances, that I had taken away several people, and that I was worried that one day I would be pestered, that I even had thoughts of quitting work.
