Happy Girl

Chapter 439

Even if the young ladies and gentlemen in Lan Mansion were jealous of Lan Yan being granted the title of Marquis, they would not come to Xiaoyao Pavilion for nothing. Something must have happened in the manor.Moreover, Lan Yan had already heard a woman crying outside. Whether it was staged or real, it meant that what happened in the house was not a trivial matter.

"Introduce the guests into the living room and let them wait for a while. I will freshen up and then go see them." Lan Yan ordered.

Liu Yizi finally replied helplessly: "Yes." Hastily called a little maid and told her to bring the young masters and ladies outside Xiaoyao Pavilion into the living room as Lan Yan said.And she followed Lan Yan into the room, helping Lan Yan to freshen up.

Unexpectedly, Lan Yan hadn't finished washing up there yet, so she heard a message from a young maidservant outside, saying, "I would like to report to Fifth Miss, the young ladies who came to visit Fifth Miss just now were persuaded by the second master to go back. The second master asked the servant Call me miss."

"Huh?" Lan Yan was puzzled, looked up at Liu Yizi, and said to the little maid outside the door: "Got it."

She turned to Liu Yizi and said, "I'm afraid this matter is not trivial. Even my father has come forward. It should not just be a matter between juniors."

Lan Yan already guessed that this time when some young masters and ladies from the mansion came to Xiaoyao Pavilion to look for her, it might be another dispute between the juniors in the mansion and the young masters and ladies from other noble mansions.However, Lan Tianyun came forward to persuade and stop, which may also involve other things.

Moreover, if there is a small dispute, she believes that the princes and ladies in the mansion will not find her.

Liu Yizi remained silent, but focused on combing Lan Yan's hair.

Lan Yan said again: "Aunt Liu, why do I feel that you don't want to talk to me about this matter?"

Liu Yizi was silent for a moment and then said: "This matter, I don't..."

"Don't tell me you don't know." Lan Yan interrupted her, "Aunt Queen gave Aunt Liu so many people, and Aunt Liu must have arranged them all over the house to monitor everyone. Whatever happened in the house, even if it's just death Even an ant can't escape Aunt Liu's eyes."

Liu Yizi fell into silence again.

Lan Yan said: "Aunt Liu, do you really not want to tell me what happened?"

Liu Yizi said: "I don't want the young lady to get involved in this matter, otherwise the young lady will be put in danger."

Lan Yan said with resentment: "I know Aunt Liu always considers my safety when doing things, but she shouldn't hide everything from me."

Liu Yizi was silent for a while, before she said, "It's about the Yunlai Beizi Gold Mine."

Lan Yan was startled when she heard this.

Although she seldom asks about the affairs of the mansion, and she is a big fool when it comes to money that is not related to martial arts, she has also heard that the Lan family has a small gold mine in the north of Yunlai.

Although the value of this sub-gold mine is far inferior to the sub-gold source mine that Lan Yan broke into at the beginning, its mineral income is close to half of the income of the entire Lan Mansion, and it is the main source of many cultivation resources of the Lan Family.

Therefore, this sub-gold mine is still very important to the Lan family.

Liu Yizi continued: "In the first half of the year, the second master borrowed a sum of silver from Luo Guogong in order to deal with the old master's military expenses. It was originally said that it would be repaid in three months. Unexpectedly, when the gold mine we mined was sold, He was hijacked by a group of robbers, causing all the planned income to be wiped out, so..."

Lan Yan said: "Luo Mansion wants to use this gold mine to pay off the debt?"

Liu Yizi said: "This gold mine has always been under the control of the fifth master. The second master has been taking care of this matter. He wants to wait until next month for another batch of gold mines to be owed, including the principal and interest. The debt must be repaid. But Luo Mansion was not in a hurry and insisted on using this gold mine to repay the debt. If the two parties colluded, then the Fifth Master... Oh!"

Lan Yan said: "Why, the fifth uncle was injured?"

Liu Yizi said: "I didn't recover from the injury that night, it's gone."

"What?" As soon as Lan Yan heard it, a fire rushed into her head.She can still understand that the two sides had a fight, but it's too outrageous for people to be killed. Is their Luo family just like the lives of people in the Blue Mansion?

After all, Lan Yan is not really only sixteen or seventeen years old, but a person whose soul has lived for decades, so her mood quickly stabilized.

She said: "Aunt Liu, you shouldn't hide such a big thing from me."
Liu Yizi said: "I originally thought to wait until this time passed before telling Miss Fifth. You must know that Miss has just been appointed Marquis, but it is a sensitive stage."

Lan Yan smiled lightly and said, "Aunt Liu is afraid that if I get involved in this matter, outsiders will say that I am a spoiled brat?"

Liu Yizi said: "It's good that Miss understands this."

Lan Yan said: "It should be Fifth Aunt and her daughter who were crying outside our Xiaoyao Pavilion earlier."

Liu Yizi said helplessly, "Yes."

Lan Yan asked again: "How does father plan to solve this matter?"

The person in charge of the mansion is Lan Tianyun, and he also appointed the fifth master Lan who is affiliated with him. Now that the fifth master Lan has died because of the affairs of the mansion, it is certain that the mansion will treat Lan Wuye's widow well.

But what should we do about Master Lan’s great hatred?Should he swallow his anger or go straight to the Luo Mansion for revenge?
Liu Yizi said: "The Luo family is a big family, and they are unwilling to hand over the murderer who killed Lan Wuye. And this matter is that our debt was not repaid on the agreed date, but there was a mistake first, and the second master is also doing this It's scratching my head."

Lan Yan shook her head and sighed: "Oh, that is to say, father still doesn't know how to solve it?"

No wonder those young and energetic young masters and ladies in the mansion would find her Xiaoyao Pavilion.Now in the Lan family, apart from the old master Lan Ning and the old lady Chen Guixiang, she has the highest status. Even Lan Tianyun is her father, but because of his inferior official position, she still has the power to make decisions on many matters. under.

Those young masters and ladies who couldn't stand this kind of anger came to her, most of them wanted her to be the master, to avenge Lan Wuye as soon as possible, so as to vent their anger.

Liu Yizi said: "Fifth Miss, you are a newly promoted female marquis, and besides Luo Guogong, there is also Luo Yuan, a young prince who has been a marquis for several years. You belong to the same generation as him, and now this There are only you two marquises in my life..."

Lan Yan sneered and said, "Many people want to see how the two of us, who were conferred this morning and one night, will fight."

Liu Yizi said: "Na Luo is far from ordinary. It is said that he has successfully broken through to the top level of cultivation a few days ago. He is a man of great luck.

The Empress has only recently heard from the Emperor that this son accidentally fell into a Panlong Tomb when he was young, and received a lot of Dragon Clan's orthodoxy inheritance. He also has many secret treasures in his hands. Although he has just reached the top level, his combat power is likely to be He is already on par with a warrior who has been at the top level for ten years. "

Lan Yan said: "Are you afraid that I will confront Na Luo Yuan?"

Liu Yizi said: "For some reason, I always feel that Luo Yuan is always targeting our Lan Mansion intentionally or unintentionally."

Lan Yan's heart moved when she heard this.The last time Luo Yuan asked her to propose marriage to Mo Ting, she had found an opportunity to tactfully reject Luo Yuan, so is it because of this incident that Luo Yuan was in bad luck in the Lan Mansion?
Liu Yizi added: "The young Marquis Luo Yuan sometimes looks polite, gentle and elegant on the surface, but in fact he is a small-minded person with extremely vicious methods.

Now among the noble juniors in the capital, apart from him, the Marquis, there is also a newly promoted Fifth Miss, you are a Marquis. There are rumors outside, and everyone says that you are a Marquis, and you are much younger than Luo Yuan when you were a Marquis. Miss, you The future development will far exceed that of Luo Yuan. "

Regarding Luo Yuan's personality, Lan Yan can understand a little bit.The last time a killer assassinated her on the way back from the Great Buddha Temple, it should be done by people from Luofu.

Luo Yuan probably participated in the planning of this matter, but he was not at all abnormal in front of Lan Yan, and he looked like a gentleman who wanted to get along with Lan Yan.

After listening to Liu Yizi's words, Lan Yanchi smiled and said: "I'm afraid this is someone with evil intentions who wants me to be with Na Luo Yuandou."

Liu Yizi said: "This servant is also worried about this, so if the young lady can avoid getting involved in this matter, it is better not to get involved."

Lan Yan said: "As long as the debt owed is returned to the Luo Mansion, they should return the Zijin Mine, and the murderer who killed Uncle Wu should also be handed over by the Luo Mansion."

Liu Yizi said: "But I heard that the person who took action against Fifth Master was Luo Huan, who is very outstanding in Luo's residence. This person has been in charge of taking care of Luo Yuan when Luo Yuan was a child, and has a very close relationship with Luo Yuan. Luo's residence No matter what, it is impossible to hand over Luo Huan to take his life."

Lan Yan snorted and said: "That Luo Huan's life is fate, so my fifth uncle's life is not life? Killing people to pay for their lives, debts to pay back money, this is a matter of course and right. We can't pay the debts owed by our family, but The Luo Mansion owes them their lives and they will not pay back."

Yes, Liu Yizi felt helpless when she heard this. She knew that Lan Yan would have such a choking attitude after knowing about this incident.

Fighting is not impossible.But Lan Yan is not even a high-level warrior now, how can she fight against Luo Yuan who has already entered the top level?What's more, the Luo Mansion is a big family with thousands of years of background, and there is a prince sitting in the town.

Compared with Duke Luo's Mansion, Lanhou's Mansion is a small sesame seed against a big watermelon, an egg against a rock, and it is impossible to get any bargain.

"Fifth Miss, where are you going?" Seeing Lan Yan suddenly getting up to go out, Liu Yizi couldn't help asking.

Lan Yan said: "I'm going to discuss the solution of this matter with my father." After a pause, he continued: "Even if the Luo Manor refuses to hand over Luo Huan, they can't let this matter go away. If others know that I A fifth master died in the Lan Mansion, but he cowardly let it go, how will my Lan family gain a foothold in the capital?"

And if this matter is not resolved well, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of the collateral disciples in the Lan Mansion.Lan Yan didn't say this.

Liu Yizi was shocked when she heard it, and she answered somewhat suddenly: "Yes."

She always thinks about Lan Yan's safety as the starting point, which has become a habit. In this matter, she did not consider other people in the Lan Mansion and the Lan Family. At this time, hearing Lan Yan say this is somewhat a little bit Now I understand why Lan Yan has to deal with this matter forcefully.
