With anger on his face, he cursed: "Master Liu, even if we want to delay time, we can't be like you, playing me like a fool. Wait a little longer. If everyone hasn't arrived yet, don't blame my men for being reckless. If they accidentally enter a place they shouldn't enter, we will not be responsible."

Liu Fufeng and the sleepy Liu Mubai were walking over from not far away. When they saw Lord Lu like this, their faces instantly darkened.

He raised his voice, showing no fear of Lord Lu: "Lord Lu, we in the Liu Mansion have only been confined. Neither the Emperor nor Lord Lu from the Dali Temple has convicted us of any crime. You have no right to search our Liu Mansion, and there is no such provision in the laws of Kyoto."

As Liu Fufeng spoke, he quickly came to Lord Lu.

Although Lord Lu is from the Dali Temple, he looks as petite as a child when standing in front of Liu Fufeng.

Liu Fufeng's dark shadow loomed in front of him, and Lord Lu's momentum was instantly weakened.

He looked up at Liu Fufeng's dark face, and stepped back unhappily as he spoke: "What do you want to do by coming so close?"

Liu Fufeng looked down at Lord Lu and snorted coldly, "The child is still young. If Lord Lu scares our Liu family's children, I'm afraid you won't be able to pay the compensation."

After saying this, Liu Fufeng did not forget to look down at him with pride.

It is not very harmful, but it is extremely insulting.

The emotions that Lord Lu had prepared for were instantly disrupted by Liu Fufeng.

He stood there in a daze for a long while.

Only then did he remember the Queen's instructions to him.

Lord Lu looked around at everyone in the Liu family and said angrily, "Half an incense stick of time has passed, and none of you Liu family members have arrived yet? Even if I am willing to wait, I have to ask these brothers behind me if they are willing to wait."

Liu Fufeng sneered, "Lord Lu, you came prepared. We in the Liu Mansion have not blamed you for disturbing our sweet dreams. Since you want to wait, then just wait patiently. Why are you blaming us? If you are tired, why don't you go back first and come back in the morning?"

Lord Lu was furious.

He didn't expect that Liu Fufeng, who was usually carefree, would speak so harshly today.

When Liu Mubai turned around, he met Lord Lu's ferocious eyes. He was so scared that he quickly reached out and hugged Liu Fufeng's neck.

Liu Fufeng glanced coldly at Lord Lu and said in a gentle voice, "Mu Mu, don't be afraid. If anyone dares to bully Mu Mu, father will beat him to death with one punch."

After hearing these innuendos, Lord Lu's face turned redder and darker, looking extremely ugly, but he could do nothing about it.

He didn't want to say more to the people in Liu Mansion, so he said to Liu Zhengtang directly: "I have met everyone in Liu Mansion. Now only Liu Yueru is left. The child doesn't need to come out. Call Liu Yueru over and we will meet her and leave immediately."

Liu Zhengtang and Liu Fufeng looked at each other.

Liu Fufeng stood in front of Lord Lu, blocking his way.

Lord Lu also glanced at the officers and soldiers behind him.

Those people started running towards the backyard of Liu Mansion.

Liu Fufeng shouted at the backs of those people: "You are trespassing. We will report this to the emperor. Lord Lu is abusing his power."

Lord Lu was not worried about this matter at all, because the benefits given to him by the Queen were enough for him to take the risk.

Besides, his people have already returned from Yihongyuan.

It is said that Liu Yueru has been kidnapped and is being tortured by someone now. It is impossible for her to appear in the Liu Mansion.

As long as he doesn't find Liu Yueru in the Liu Mansion, when the emperor convicts the Liu Mansion, no one will mention how he broke into the backyard of the Liu Mansion.

Think about this.

Lord Lu turned around and looked at Liu Fufeng with a more proud look in his eyes, "If this is just a misunderstanding, I, Lu, will let you handle it however you want."

Liu Fufeng still wanted to stop it.

But Liu Zimo, who had hurried over, grabbed his hand and shook his head gently at Liu Fufeng.

Let Lord Lu and his men start searching the Liu Mansion at will.

However, the officers and soldiers he brought with him seemed to be there to cause trouble, leaving a mess wherever they passed.

Lord Lu, however, looked nonchalant. He grabbed a maid and asked, "Where is your Madam Liu's courtyard?"

The maid was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she casually pointed to the yard where Liu Yueru was.

Lord Lu brought his men all the way to the courtyard where Liu Yueru lived. Seeing that the courtyard was pitch black, he became more certain that Liu Yueru was no longer in the Liu Mansion.

He was very happy, as if great achievements were beckoning to him.

He walked into the yard with his head held high.

"Sir, this is Madam Liu's boudoir. It would be inappropriate for you to go in and check directly!" One of the officers and soldiers reminded in a low voice.

Lord Lu was so overwhelmed with joy that he didn't care about anything else. He said to his subordinates, "Search. This is Liu Yueru's residence. Search it and report back."

As soon as he finished speaking, his subordinates immediately rushed into Liu Yueru's courtyard.

A massive search began in her room.

Even her dowry, those people wanted to break into the house and take it for themselves.

When Liu Fufeng and Liu Zimo arrived, they saw the man trying to pry open the storeroom where Liu Yueru kept her dowry.

Liu Fufeng immediately stopped them: "What are you doing? That's Yue'er's dowry storehouse. If you break in like this, and something gets damaged or burned, who will be responsible?"

Lord Lu did not find Liu Yueru in her room, and with a hint of elation on his face, he said to Liu Fufeng, "You two should think about how to explain to the Emperor that Liu Yueru escaped from the palace privately, right?"

Liu Zimo narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Lord Lu, and asked calmly: "I only know that Yue'er is resting in the room. Why were you so sure from the beginning that Yue'er was not in Liu's house? Or is Yue'er's disappearance related to you?"

Lord Lu was choked by Liu Zimo's words and hesitated for a long time without being able to make any clear statement.

Finally, he just stiffened his neck and said angrily: "We are all following orders. We received a report that someone from your Liu Mansion escaped secretly late at night. Don't try to deny it to me."

"Knock the door open and look carefully inside. If Madam Liu is not inside, go back and report the matter directly." Lord Lu looked at them with an increasingly arrogant look in his eyes.

It was as if all the people in the Liu Mansion were now prisoners in his hands.

Regardless of what Lord Lu said, Liu Fufeng stepped forward and bent his fingers back, breaking one of them.

"Ah!" Lord Lu wailed, staring at Liu Fufeng.

"You, you savage, I will tell the emperor to remove you from your post!" Lord Lu cursed and hid back.

Seeing that the situation was getting more and more serious, Liu Zhengtang stepped forward to pull Liu Fufeng away, wanting to have a good negotiation with Lord Lu.

Currently, the situation at the Liu Mansion is simply not able to withstand any further disturbance.

In addition, Liu Yueru had just divorced Song Nanzhi. If the scandal of her sneaking out of the house late at night were to spread, she would be the target of gossip in the future.

"Who dares!" A cold voice came from not far away.
