Jiang Luo interrupted her and said, "Don't bother Second Aunt. Second Aunt has just taken over the general affairs of the mansion and is very busy now. I will pick a few maids that suit my eyes."

The maids around the young ladies in the mansion were all chosen by themselves.

Only Jiang Luo's Shaoguangyuan was punished to go to the farm, and the previous batch of people were sold off. The current maids and servants were all stuffed in.

When Liu heard her say that, she thought it was quite reasonable. After all, she was serving him. It would be very frustrating if they didn't like each other.

She nodded and replied, "Okay, then you can buy it yourself."

"Thank you, Second Aunt." She went out again.

When her figure disappeared, Liu finally stopped what she was doing...

She glanced at Mother Zhao beside her and asked, "Has the person who was sent to follow her yesterday not returned yet?"

Mother Zhao shook her head and said, "No. I have gone to the outer courtyard to check twice, but no one has come back yet."

She stared out the door for a long while, then said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to come back..."

This young lady is definitely not as simple as she appears.

Who did she meet yesterday, and why did she hide it so deeply...

The person who was "hidden" by Jiang Luo was invited by Xu Yuan to the Lu Mansion in Yongping Lane.

It's an invitation, not a bondage.

Because Su Mu was fighting with another man in the martial arts arena in the Lu Mansion.

The two of them had already fought their way from the courtyard where Wu Yang lived, climbing over the eaves and walls, all the way to the Lu Mansion's martial arts arena.

It looks like the fight will continue.

Xu Yuan stared at the side.

Lord Lu and Su Mu were already the top masters he had ever seen, but he did not expect that this person could narrowly defeat Su Mu.

No wonder the people sent yesterday could only circle outside the yard and couldn’t even take a step into the yard.

That's understandable indeed.

If he fights alone, he probably won't be able to do it.

If he hadn't been with us today, with the advantage of having more people, it would have been difficult to invite Mr. Wu San.

Wu Yang is much more relaxed.

He sat on a throne chair in the corridor, and on the table beside him was a complete set of green-glazed tea sets with upturned lotus patterns.

The Jinshan Yinzhen tea brewed in the pot was very fragrant, and Zhuqing beside him poured tea for his third master from time to time.

While drinking tea, he enjoyed the "circus" in the martial arts arena.

He would slap his thigh from time to time and applaud, "Good, Zhuxi, your left hook is very good."

After a while, he said with regret: "Oh... Zhuxi, if your sword had not missed, it would have definitely destroyed that kid..."

Zhuxi: Master, can you please shut up?

Xu Yuan: I am too conservative...

On the other hand, Jiang Luo took Rendong to several dental clinics after leaving the Duke's Mansion, but did not meet any maid who would sleep.

The two of them went around and around, and finally they saw a maid in the last house and bought her.

This maid's name is Wangyou.

Wangyou, who was "bought" by Jiang Luo, has a bright future from now on.

Nanxing is the secret guard prepared for her by her uncle, and she will hide in the dark in the future just in case.

This way, she won't have to worry too much.

After leaving the dental clinic, the two maids followed her straight to Mingyuzhai.

My third uncle will be returning to Jiangnan in two days.

Yesterday he said that he would take me to Huguo Temple to burn incense for her mother.

But he didn't say when he would leave. She thought that since she was leaving the house today, she would ask clearly so that she could prepare some things for her mother in advance.

Besides, she still had many things to tell her two uncles in Jiangnan...

As soon as Jiang Luo arrived at the courtyard, he saw a man jumping in from outside the wall.

Honeysuckle quickly pulled her behind him, looking wary.

Wangyou's hand also reached for the pouch at his waist...

There are poisons in there that she carefully prepared!

"Miss, something bad has happened..." When Nan Xing saw that it was Jiang Luo, his eyes lit up and he flew forward and said anxiously.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you so anxious?" Jiang Luo walked out from behind Rendong and asked.

When Wangyou saw that it was her, he withdrew his hand.

"Miss, the Third Master has been taken away. It is said that Lord Lu from the Imperial Guards invited the Third Master to have tea at the Lu Mansion."

Jiang Luo's heart tightened when she heard this. She asked hurriedly, "Lu Mansion? What's the name of the person who came?"

Nan Xing thought for a moment: "He claimed to be Xu Yuan."

Jiang Luo finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Is there anyone protecting Third Uncle?"

"Yes. But they had too many people, and Zhuxi and I were outnumbered, so the Third Master was taken away by them. However, I noticed that they were very polite to the Third Master." She replied.

"You went with him?"

Nanxing nodded quickly.

"Let's go to Lu Mansion." Jiang Luo ordered.

Several people got on Wu Yang's carriage and drove out from the back alley...

At this time in the court, Emperor Zhaoding sat on a high throne, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

"Your Majesty, I have a report to make." Chief Censor Chang Pingguang said expressionlessly.

"My dear, please speak."

Chang Pingguang glanced at Lu Jinan and said, "I would like to report Commander Lu for abusing his power. He arrested Shangshu Lang Qin Yu and tortured him without any evidence."

"I second the proposal."

"I also second the proposal..."

In the Censorate, most of the censors came out to accuse Lu Jinan.

Emperor Zhaoding looked at Lu Jinan and asked, "Lord Lu, is this true?"

Lu Jinan cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, this is indeed the case."

Chang Pingguang pointed at Lu Jinan proudly and said loudly: "Your Majesty, look, Lord Lu has admitted it himself. Please punish him."

"Your Majesty, please punish us..." the people below followed.

"Gathering in private to question the emperor's will undermines his dignity. Lord Chang, is this a crime?" Lu Jinan said coldly.

Chang Pingguang was startled: "This..."

Can he plead not guilty?

Unless your head wants to move.

How could the emperor's majesty be damaged by a mere fifth-rank minister?

He's going to say guilty.

Isn't that just slapping yourself in the face?

He secretly thought: The treacherous ministers and villains are setting a trap for me again...

Elder Ling, who was at the front row, kept his head down and said nothing.

"Sir Chang, is the Censorate very idle?" Lu Jinan asked, glancing at him.

Chang Pingguang looked embarrassed: "You you you..."

The rest of the people didn't dare to say a word.

"In this case, Shangshu Lang Qin Yu, whose words and deeds are not in line with the rules, will be suspended from his post for one month and fined half a year's salary." The majestic voice of Emperor Zhaoding came.

The ministers hurriedly said, "Your Majesty is wise."

After the court session, Lu Jinan followed the crowd out of the palace. As soon as he went down the stairs, he saw the eunuch Wang Fuquan waiting at the bottom of the stairs.

He walked over despite the contemptuous looks from behind him.

So what if I despise you?

When his father met with an accident and was beheaded, none of these people who considered themselves to be upright gentlemen offered a helping hand to the mother and son.

Except Wang Fuquan.

It was because his father never looked down on Wang Fuquan because he was a eunuch, and he also saved his life during the war.

But his father had made many military achievements. Who among the people of the Yong Dynasty had not been saved by him?

However, outsiders did not know about these things, not even Emperor Zhaoding.

"Commander Lu, are your injuries healed?" Wang Fuquan asked him.
