Taking advantage of the night, Lu Sui Xin took Lu Yuan and climbed over the wall under the peach tree in the general's mansion, and the two of them went to Lu Lanjiang's study.

Lu Lanjiang had a habit of putting all the letters in a drawer. Lu Yuan held a candle while Lu Suixin opened the letters one by one from the drawer and read, "This is not my father's handwriting."

Although the handwriting was very similar to Lu Lanjiang's, Lu Suixin could still tell after a careful look that it was not written by Lu Lanjiang. "This must have been someone who imitated my father's handwriting and put it in when no one was paying attention."

Lu Yuan thought for a moment and said, "The general's study is heavily guarded. This is impossible."

Lu Suixin: "It's possible. Maybe there's something we overlooked? Maybe there's a traitor in the mansion?"

Lu Yuan: "The guards are all the general's confidants. There is no way there is a traitor. Unless it happens on that day."

Lu Suixin asked hurriedly: "Which day?"

Lu Yuan: "On the day of the fire, many people went to put out the fire. Maybe someone took advantage of the chaos to get into the study. Who knows."

"But the General's Mansion is guarded." Lu Sui Xin said, "It's impossible for anyone to get in."

Lu Suixin was afraid of alerting the enemy, so he put the letter in his arms and said, "Let's go back first."

Cui'er arranged a room for Lu Suixin and the others where the servants lived in Yingchun Tower so that they could stay temporarily.

When Lu Sui Xin returned, he heard that there was trouble ahead, so he sent Lu Yuan to check it out. It turned out that Zhang Yujin and Liang Yanlang were confronting each other.

"The Lu family is just keeping them in custody now, don't curse them here!" Liang Yanlang and Zhang Yujin got into a fight, and Yingchunlou's mother could only stand by and worry, as both sides were big shots she couldn't afford to offend, "Stop fighting, sirs! Stop fighting!"

Zhang Yujin was pinned to the ground by Liang Yanlang, still cursing angrily, "I will definitely ask my father to tell my aunt to drag the Lu family out and chop them up!"

Liang Yanlang punched Zhang Yujin in the corner of his mouth, "Who do you think you are? Don't you just have an aunt who is a concubine? You talk about it every day, but you yourself have no ability at all! If it weren't for your family, how could the Lu family be imprisoned!"

Zhang Yujin: "When my cousin inherits the throne, I will make your Liang family suffer!"

Liang Yanlang laughed angrily and said, "I will make your face as beautiful as all the colorful flowers right now!" Liang Yanlang punched Zhang Yujin's face again and again, and the servants of the two families fought together.

Liang Yanlang was furious when his wrist was grabbed by someone. He said in a rushing tone, "Whoever dares to stop me will be beaten by me, Young Master Liang!"

Cui Er said, "Mr. Liang, please stop. Mr. Lu knows you are doing this for his own good, but he certainly doesn't want you to stand up for him like this."

"Miss Cui'er," Liang Yanlang thought of every little thing he had experienced with Lu Suixin when he saw Cui'er, and he felt sad. "I want to beat Zhang Yujin so hard that she can't speak."

Miss Cui'er, "Mr. Liang, there is some chrysanthemum tea in Cui'er's room. Why don't you go up and have a cup to cool down your temper?"

Liang Yanlang was about to refuse when he saw Lu Yuan standing behind the crowd. When Lu Yuan saw that Liang Yanlang had seen him, he left.

"Then...?" Liang Yanlang was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a moment. Was he dazzled, or was that really Lu Yuan?

Cui Er said, "Where? Sir, you are referring to Cui Er's room. Then please go up with Cui Er."

Liang Yanlang understood the hint in Cui'er's words, took out a bag of silver from his pocket, threw it to his mother standing beside him, and said, "I'm in a bad mood today, so I plan to stay in Cui'er's room and listen to music."

"Okay, okay." This farce finally stopped. How could my mother not be happy? She was almost crying with joy. "Mr. Liang, just listen."

Liang Yanlang stood up, patted his clothes, stepped on Zhang Yujin's face, and said arrogantly: "Don't you like to complain the most? Go ahead!" After that, he left with Cui'er.

Cui'er brought Liang Yanlang back to the room and saw Lu Suixin sitting on the chair. Liang Yanlang walked over and hugged Lu Suixin tightly, "I thought... at least you're okay." Liang Yanlang was really anxious. His father had only heard that the Lu family was not in prison and was transferred to another place by Prime Minister Fu, but no one knew where exactly.

"You shouldn't have stood up for me just now." Lu Suixin was afraid that Liang Yanlang would be implicated by her. "Zhang Yujin's mouth is indeed foul, but if you hit him now, he will definitely make a scene."

"Let him make trouble." Liang Yanlang drank the chrysanthemum tea on the table. "I'm not afraid!"

Lu Suixin: "I have something that I need you to do for me. I don't trust anyone else except you."

"What's the matter?" Liang Yanlang said, "Just speak up. My father has been busy with your family's affairs recently. I just hope that your grievances can be cleared as soon as possible."

After hearing this, Lu Suixin felt warm in her heart, "Thank you, uncle."

Liang Yanlang didn't like this hypocritical rhetoric, and waved his hand and said, "I hate these empty words the most. If you really want to thank me, please accompany me to visit Xiaoyao Cave more often."

Lu Suixin was amused by Liang Yanlang's words and said, "Of course."

Lu Suixin told Liang Yanlang the clues. Liang Yanlang listened and said, "I'll go home and discuss it with my father, and then find someone to do it as soon as possible. Suixin, I'll help you find a hidden place to hide. There are too many people here, and it's really not a long-term solution."

Lu Suixin explained: "Although there are many people here, it is not easy to check people. I am very safe here."

Seeing Lu Suixin say this, Liang Yanlang no longer mentioned the matter, "I will come here to find Miss Cui'er when the time comes. I will trouble Miss Cui'er again for the message we delivered before."

Cui Er: "No, it's not a problem at all. Cui Er is very happy to be able to work for you two gentlemen."

In order to avoid suspicion, Liang Yanlang let Cui'er sing for half the night, and then drank a lot of wine. The scene ended only when the servants helped him home.

Liang Yanlang worked quickly, and with the help of his father, he soon found an old soldier who had been with Lu Lanjiang. The old soldier was disabled and had lost both legs on the battlefield. Lu Lanjiang bought a house for him to live in.

Recalling the incident, the old soldier said, "General Lu was ambushed by the enemy and nearly lost his life. He was later rescued, but the enemy chased him. General Lu had no choice but to flee again. When General Lu returned, he found that the family who rescued him had been killed. General Lu was heartbroken and learned that there was a child left in the world, so he sent people to look for the child, wanting to raise the child himself until he grew up. In the end, he only found out that the child fell off a cliff and died."

The old soldier thought about this, sighed, and said, "This matter has always been a concern in the general's heart. If it weren't for that couple, he wouldn't have been saved. If it weren't for him, that couple wouldn't have suffered the disaster of being wiped out. The general always felt that he was the one who harmed that family."

On Zhang Zhiqiao's side, Liang Yanlang's father is still investigating.

Fu Chuji has been sending people to look for Lu Suixin. During this period of time, he noticed that Liang Yanlang went to Yingchun Tower more often, just to listen to music with Miss Cui'er.

The medicine on the table was steaming. Fu Chuji had been suffering from stomach problems recently. He had no appetite and had lost a lot of weight.

"Found it?" Fu Chuji asked, looking at the fallen leaves outside the window.

Ah Si replied, "Found it, in Yingchun Tower, staying in the servant's room."

After hearing this, Fu Chuji stood up and said, "Let's go and pick up Sui Xin to go home."

"Yes." Ah Si followed Fu Chuji out of the door. He did this with all his heart and soul in order to atone for his sins and give himself a reason to stay with Fu Chuji.

The servant next to Cui'er came over and told Lu Suixin that Liang Yanlang was already waiting in Cui'er's room. After hearing this, Lu Suixin walked towards Cui'er's room.

"But is there any clue?" Lu Suixin closed the door and saw that there was no one in the room, only a person sitting behind the curtain. Lu Suixin thought Liang Yanlang was joking with him, so he teased: "Why are you still hiding? Where did you fool around and get beaten by your father? Do you think I can't see you hiding behind the curtain?"

Lu Suixin opened the curtain, and Fu Chuji put down the tea in his hand and said with a smile: "Suixin, long time no see."
