"Tell me quickly?" Mrs. Xue's eyes lit up.

Luo immediately came up with an idea.

"Madam, isn't the Second Miss going to hold her coming-of-age ceremony next week? Which official lady in the Imperial Guard wouldn't go to the Dingguo Temple to burn incense and get a ring or pendant before her coming-of-age ceremony?"

Madam Xue still hadn't figured out what Luo was going to say, so she said anxiously, "Just tell me the important things!"

"When the time comes, we will bring the eldest daughter with us, saying that we will give her the rings and pendants for her coming-of-age ceremony."

"But! The eldest lady is stupid. She wants to look at and touch everything she sees. But now she can't see anymore!"

Luo's words were full of spit, and it was obvious that he had done a lot of these despicable things.

Xue Qingqing was still angry at first, but after hearing this, she became cheerful.

"Mother, we will lead her to the forests and let her fend for herself. If father asks about it, we can just say she got lost. Then we won't be able to hold anything against her!"

Luo cast a look of fellow believer towards Xue Qingqing, "That's right, madam, don't hesitate."

"Yes! Mother, do you really want that fool to be the Marquise?"

"Okay! Let's do it!" Mrs. Xue gritted her teeth, and the anger she had been feeling for the past few days immediately dissipated.

The next morning, Xue Zuoxiang returned home feeling a little tired.

Mrs. Xue was looking forward to his early return, and she went up to him with a smile on her face and stroked the left prime minister's back.

"Master, what have you been doing in the palace? Why haven't you come back all night?"

Xue Zuoxiang had been busy all night and just wanted to rest quickly.

"Nothing much, I just discussed something with His Majesty. It was too late so I slept in Ninghe Tower in the Imperial City for the night!"

Mrs. Xue just asked about it, but she didn't really care about it.

I was just anxious to implement Luo's idea as soon as possible.

"Master, isn't Qingqing going to have her coming-of-age party next week? I'm thinking of taking Yangyang and Qingqing to Dingguo Temple to burn incense tomorrow. Do you agree, Master?"

Xue Zuoxiang has been feeling a little better these days, and he is in a much better mood.

Thinking about the time when Yangyang came of age, she suddenly went insane so there was no banquet, and naturally she didn't go to Dingguo Temple. It must have been hard for her!

"Go ahead! Go and make one for Yangyang. It's a token of our appreciation."

When Madam Xue heard what the Left Prime Minister said, she was quite delighted. It seemed that the Left Prime Minister still had her in his heart.

"Yes! Master, I will wait for you to rest now!"

Madam Xue was about to take action when the Left Prime Minister grabbed her wrist and said, "Hey! Let the servants come, and you can go and do your work!"

Mrs. Xue didn't think much about it and just waited for tomorrow.

After tomorrow, the Xue family will be at peace.

Xue Yangyang was wondering why the mother and daughter didn't come to cause trouble today. It was really rare. Could they be thinking of a big move?

Just as I was thinking about this, Luo came to the gate of Fangfei Courtyard with a little girl.

Looking closely, the little girl following behind her was the one who reminded her in the flower garden yesterday!

The little girl was holding a tray with a very eye-catching pomegranate red silk dress on it.

As we got closer, Luo became more flattering, as if he had become a different person.

"Xiao Tao, this is the dress that Madam specifically asked me to bring over. It was custom-made at Jinxiu Pavilion a few days ago."

While giving instructions to Xiaotao, he would occasionally glance at Yangyang who was in a daze in the corridor, so he turned up the volume, wishing that everyone in the yard would know.

"Madam also said that the second young lady is about to come of age, so tomorrow we will take the first and second young ladies to Dingguo Temple to pray for blessings, and by the way, make up for the eldest young lady's last year!"

Xiao Tao smiled coldly, but she was a little wary of this sudden flattery.

But he still politely bowed and took the tray.

Just at the moment of taking the tray, he saw that the little girl seemed to have something hidden in her eyes, but she lowered her head and followed Luo.

When the yard became quiet, Xiao Tao brought the tray in front of Yang Yang angrily.

With one hand holding the plate, with the other hand picking and choosing the clothes,

"This is not a new custom-made style, it's the style that was popular in Beijing last year," Xiao Tao said angrily.

"I saw the second young lady wearing it once last year. She must not like it anymore, so she is treating her like a beggar."

Yangyang sat on the beauty's chair, raised his head and made a face at Xiaotao.

Xiao Tao laughed instantly, "Miss, it's already this hour, and you still have something to play with."

"What else can I do? You are still hoping that the mother and daughter will repent and be nice to me!"

Yangyang thought it was unnecessary to look at it. She didn't even want to wear a skirt of that color. But this was strange.

"Why do you want to take me out all of a sudden? What kind of a remarkable place is Dingguo Temple?"

Xiao Tao said, "This Dingguo Temple was built with funds from Emperor Gaozu. It is said to be very effective. All the young ladies from the imperial families of the imperial guards must go and pay homage before they reach the age of 15. This is an unwritten rule!"

Oh! Yangyang shook his neck, only to feel a slight pain in his neck again today, "Then why did you say to make up for it for me just now?"

When Xiao Tao heard this, her eyes suddenly turned red and she felt annoyed.

"I don't know if it was God playing a trick on you, young lady. Last year when you were coming of age, you suddenly became crazy and ran around the yard. No one called you and you didn't listen. In the end, you even foamed at the mouth. We were scared to death."

"I'm not suffering from dementia, I'm suffering from epilepsy!" Yangyang joked, but he still felt something was wrong.

"So, what is Madam Xue thinking this time? You want me to go. Aren't you afraid that I will go crazy again?"

Xiao Tao also had doubts between her brows. "Oh, by the way, I saw the little maid Biluo following me just now. She looked at me strangely!"

It turns out that little girl's name is Biluo. Yangyang likes her a little bit, but...

"There must be something wrong when things are out of the ordinary. Xiao Tao, go and help me with something."

Yangyang stood up and whispered to Xiaotao for a while.

After hearing this, Xiao Tao covered her mouth and smiled, saying, "Yes! I'll listen to you, miss. I'll do it right away!"

After taking a few sips of tea at night, Yangyang felt the dull pain in the back of her neck worsen a little, but not as severe as last time.

After a while, Xiao Tao came back with a lantern and drove away the old women and gardeners in the yard.

After closing the doors and windows, Xiao Tao said, "Miss, I asked Biluo as you asked. Guess what I found out?"

"What did you ask?" Yangyang just felt uncomfortable all over. This was a sign of cervical spine disease.

"Biluo said that her sister Bitao was taken in by Luo's son, but Luo's son was a scoundrel and beat and scolded her sister every day."

Xiao Tao took a sip of water. Perhaps because she had spent some time persuading Biluo, she continued,

"Then Luo threatened her that if she wanted her sister to have a good life, she would have to help do something tomorrow!"

"Ming'er, could it be related to me?" Yangyang guessed it in his mind.

Xiao Tao said, "Biluo said that she didn't dare to say more, for fear that her sister would die. But she hesitated for a long time and said that she didn't want to do that kind of thing, and only wanted to die, and Luo Shi would let her sister go!"

"This Luo family is really...Okay! Since they have a plan, we can also get around it! We will counter their moves and use their own tactics against them."

Yangyang was just worrying about how to take the first step, but now someone has come to her on their own accord.
