When the carriage was still ten miles away from the city gate, Gu Xingyan and Yang Luo prepared to change back to their own carriage.

It was at this time that Shu Wenbo came, and he seemed a little anxious.

At this moment, he saw two carriages in the distance, one in front and one behind. He approached them calmly, took advantage of the body of the carriages, and jumped into the carriage.

"Ninth brother, the Dali Temple Minister Meng Yulin is a big shot, and he has already found out about Su Binxu."

Gu Xingyan frowned slightly. This man named Meng Yulin was a disciple of Mr. Zhu and was also the former Shaoqing of the Dali Temple.

He has learned the true skills from Master Zhu and he does have some abilities.

However, in just a few days, he had found a clue in the confusing case. People underestimated him.

Gu Xinglang was curious: "Who is Su Binxu?"

"The son of the Yongning Marquis."

"Marquis Yongning!" Gu Xinglang's voice suddenly rose, and the three words came out with a taste of gnashing teeth.

Shu Wenbo looked at him curiously: "What happened to Master Gu?"

"He is Luo Luo's brother!"

During the two-month journey from Daliang to Beijin, the two talked about a lot.

Talk about each other's past.

He talked about how his mother forced him to go on a blind date and even sent a young prostitute to his bed.

Naturally, Lolo also told him about his childhood experiences.

At first, she was reluctant, but he told her everything about himself.

She then told him bit by bit all of her experiences over the past decade.

Naturally, I know how much suffering Luo Luo has endured in the Yongning Marquis Mansion over the past ten years.

How much of it was thanks to her stepmother and her two children.

Seeing that he looked like he was going to kill someone, Shu Wenbo quickly said, "Master Gu, please take it easy. Your wounds haven't healed yet."

"Oh, but it's just to kill a piece of trash. I don't need to do it myself."

Gu Xingyan did not stop him.

"Brother Nine, Lin Musen is waiting for you at the inn. He looks like he has something urgent to do."

Gu Xingyan nodded lightly.

Several people changed carriages, and Gu Xingyan and his group entered the city first.

Gu Xinglang and Yang Luo went to another town for a detour, and then entered Shengjing from the East Gate.

In the carriage, Li Shuangwan took out the letter he had written a few days ago from his sleeve: "I finally found an opportunity yesterday and stole the private seal from my father. I have already stamped it."

Gu Xingyan took it and whistled. The Saker Falcon named Lan Yue let out a long howl and landed steadily on the carriage.

Gu Xingyan tied up the letter, raised his arm, and the Saker Falcon flew straight into the sky.

"You will receive the letter in two days at most." Note 1

……

And at this moment in Songhe Hall of the Duke of Zhenguo’s Mansion.

Old Madam Fang was sad for a long time after Li Shuangmiao's death.

Later, because of Li Shuangxi's disappearance, Aunt Tong was cruelly punished. Within two days, someone came to report that Aunt Tong had died on the farm.

The death was extremely horrific.

His eyes were wide open, as if he was dying with his eyes open.

A letter written in blood was even found next to her body.

The servant brought the blood letter to her to see.

It accused the old lady of all her evil deeds and said that she knew the secrets that she had been trying hard to hide.

It is impossible that this matter will remain unknown forever. She will wait for the old lady to suffer the consequences on the road to the underworld.

After reading it, the old lady’s face changed drastically. She was frightened and had nightmares for several days. After that, she fell ill.

We consulted several doctors, but as days passed, the things we imagined did not happen.

The old lady's uneasy heart finally calmed down a little.

Until today, I feel a little better.

But when she feels comfortable, someone will make her uncomfortable.

It was at this time that Fang Yuqian entered her room.

As soon as he entered the room, he pulled a chair and sat down in front of Madam Fang's bed without even being polite.

Then he waved his hand to Aunt Cai who was waiting beside him and said, "Aunt Cai, please go down first. I have something to say to my great aunt."

Madam Cai looked at the old lady with embarrassment.

The old lady sighed softly and waved to Madam Cai.

It is really easy to invite gods but difficult to send them away.

Old Madam Fang had long regretted listening to her parents and letting Fang Yuqian come to Shengjing.

Aunt Cai had no choice but to go out, close the door, and guard the door herself to prevent anyone from approaching.

Looking at the cousin's expression, you can tell that nothing good is going to happen when she comes to see the old lady.

The old lady had just finished taking her medicine. She took a handkerchief to wipe the medicine stains on her lips, then reached out to take the candied fruit on the small table.

The medicine prescribed by the doctor was really bitter. Without candied fruit, her mouth would be bitter all night.

But he didn't expect that the hand he stretched out would end up empty.

Fang Yuqian took the plate of candied fruit in her hand and said, "Grandaunt, I have been in Shengjing City for almost a month. When will you arrange things for me and Li Yuanqiao?"

The old lady looked a little unhappy: "Give me the candied fruit."

Fang Yuqian took the plate further away: "You haven't answered my question yet, are you not going to care about the matter between me and Li Yuanqiao?"

The old lady said bitterly: "Are you blaming me?"

Fang Yuqian also said in a bad tone: "I heard the servants in front talking about it. Zhu from the first house has already arranged a marriage for Li Yuanqiao with the daughter of the Imperial College's chief priest. In two days, they will ask Bingren to come to the house to act as a matchmaker."

"If Li Yuanqiao and that Miss Zhong are engaged, what will happen to Fang Yuqian? I don't want to be someone's concubine."

Hearing this, the old lady's face darkened slightly: "You said that Zhu had arranged for Li Yuanqiao to marry the daughter of the Zhong family?"

The eldest wife is now increasingly disregarding her as her stepmother. She has not even informed her of such an important matter as her grandson's marriage.

In theory, as long as she, the legitimate grandmother, is still alive, she should be the one to decide the marriages of her grandchildren.

It is not her turn, Zhu, to act like a mother here.

Fang Yuqian curled her lips in disdain: "Grandma, don't tell me that you don't know about this, right?"

"I really don't know which Miss Zhong you are talking about?"

"I heard that the girl named Zhong Wei is a scumbag who had her engagement rejected last year."

"what!"

The old lady was so angry that she pounded the bed repeatedly: "My Zhenguogong Mansion is a century-old family, a famous and prestigious family in Shengjing City. When did we fall to the point of marrying a slut?"

"Madam Cai, go and call Madam Zhu over to me! I want to ask her carefully whether she thinks that I, her mother-in-law, am dead!"

The old lady was so angry that her face turned red and she shouted towards the door.

Aunt Cai didn't know what was going on, so she quickly opened the door and came in: "Madam, what's wrong with you?"

"Go, go and call Zhu to me! This is getting more and more outrageous. Even a girl from a family like the Zhong family is worthy of entering the gate of my Zhenguo Mansion!"

When Madam Cai heard this, she looked at Fang Yuqian again and looked embarrassed.

She knew a thing or two about this matter at the Zhong Mansion.

There was a hint of sarcasm in Fang Yuqian's eyes. When she was in Xixiang City, her great-aunt praised her like a big shot.

It seemed as if everyone in the Duke's Mansion revolved around her, and no one dared to oppose her.

As a result, she was not even informed about such a big matter as her eldest grandson's marriage.
