After saying this, Madam Li also left with her maid.

After the Spring Banquet, the news that a daughter of the Liang family in Jiangnan City had made a fool of herself at the Spring Banquet spread quickly throughout the capital. For a time, the streets and alleys of the capital were talking about the shocking gossip at the Spring Banquet...

Even the events of the capital city twenty years ago were brought up.

Liang Tan sat in the carriage. She lifted one side of the curtain and looked into the distance at a plaque hanging on a mansion.

Dengzhi sat outside the carriage. She asked Liang Tan in the carriage, "Miss, you have been looking at this plaque for half an hour. Why don't we go in? I think Mr. Luo and Mr. Yushi Zhongcheng also want to see you, Miss."

In the previous life, after Xu Shengsheng came to power, he not only trampled on her, but also implicated her uncle and grandfather. Dongfang Xuan falsely accused her of crimes in the court, and the emperor inexplicably believed Dongfang Xuan's words, which led to a miserable end for the entire Luo family.

She had never understood why the emperor would rather believe the words of a newly appointed sixth-rank official than a family of censors with a history of hundreds of years.

Now she understands.

All of this was caused by Xu Shengsheng.

Liang Tanqian sighed, she lowered the curtain, her emotions fluctuating slightly: "I haven't thought about it yet."

Dengzhi didn't understand why Liang Tan did this. She always felt that the young lady was worried, but Dengzhi couldn't figure it out.

Dengzhi advised: "Miss, why don't you go in and take a look."

Liang Tan seemed to have made up her mind. She returned to her usual mood and said, "Go back."

Dengzhi said nothing more, told the driver to turn the horses around and return to his residence.

I picked up the book at hand and read it for a long time, and my eyes felt a little sore.

With the book on his legs, Liang Tan supported his head with his hands and took a nap with his eyes closed.

Dengzhi, who was outside, knocked on the car door and said, "Miss, we have arrived at the inn."

Liang Tan withdrew her hand and responded to Deng Zhi outside.

I was so excited that I couldn't calm down for a long time.

In the evening, Liang Tan was sitting at the table stroking the sandalwood beads on his wrist when he suddenly heard the sound of Deng Zhi outside.

Liang Tan calmed down, took a breath, and said to the door, "Come in."

The door was pushed open, and a burly middle-aged man walked in. As soon as he came in, he walked quickly to Liang Tan's side, picked up Liang Tan who had just stood up, and spun around on the spot.

Dengzhi was stunned by the scene in front of him.

No one has ever treated Miss like this...

Dengzhi quietly left the room and closed the door from the outside.

Liang Tan inside was held and spun around by him until he felt dizzy, so he patted his shoulder and asked him to put her down.

My feet touched the ground, but my head was still dizzy.

The big man helped Liang Tan sit on a stool, poured her a cup of tea, and said with some disdain: "Niece, you are so weak. I asked you to practice martial arts with me back then, but you were not interested. Look, you can't do it after just a few turns."

Liang Tan took the hot tea given by the big man and calmed down, feeling a little better.

Liang Tan looked steadily at the big man in front of him, who was looking at him with a smile.

His smile was like a switch for Liang Tan's emotional outburst. She could no longer control her emotions, and the emotions that had been pent up in her heart for two lifetimes suddenly burst forth.

Liang Tan's nose felt sore, and her eyes were filled with tears, pouring down. She cried out aggrievedly, "Uncle..."

The big man Liang Tan called "uncle" was none other than Luo Qingshan, the fourth-rank Chief Censor of the current dynasty.

Luo Qingshan didn't expect Liang Tan to cry so hard, and he was suddenly at a loss.

Luo Qingshan was in a panic and wanted to use his sleeves to wipe Liang Tan's tears, but he felt it was not right to raise his sleeves.

Luo Qingshan was about to pick up the handkerchief that Liang Tan dropped on the ground, but unexpectedly Liang Tan pulled back his sleeve and grabbed his sleeve to wipe her tears.

Luo Qingshan was stunned for a moment, and he whispered, "Tan'er, what's wrong with you?"

Liang Tan held his sleeve and cried for a long time before she stopped sobbing. She looked at the bewildered Luo Qingshan with tears in her eyes. She choked up and said, "That's great. You're not dead. You're still alive."

Luo Qingshan was confused. He scratched his ear with his free hand and said, "What are you talking about? What's the meaning of life and death? Tan'er, are you sick?"

After that, he raised his hand and touched Liang Tan's head: "You don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense..."

Luo Qingshan deliberately teased Liang Tan for several more times, and Liang Tan barely recovered her mood. She said to Luo Qingshan unhappily: "Uncle, you look like you are three years old."

When Luo Qingshan heard Liang Tan say this, he felt a little relieved.

Luo Qingshan calmly took back his sleeves which were already stained by Liang Tan's tears. He said, "Tan'er, why don't you go back to Luo Mansion in the afternoon?"

Liang Tan didn't expect Luo Qingshan to know what happened in the afternoon. She asked, "Uncle, how did you know I went there?"

Luo Qingshan frowned and said seriously, "Since you entered the capital, the people from the Luo Mansion have been following you secretly to protect your safety."

"This afternoon, the secret guards protecting you reported that your carriage had gone to the Liang Mansion. I was so happy that I told your grandparents about it. They were waiting for you to come home happily. Who knew that you, a child, would not go in when you arrived at the door, but actually turned the carriage around and left..."

"Your grandparents were so happy for nothing. Your grandfather didn't even eat his meal. He kept muttering to himself, wondering if you were still mad at them for sending you away. That's why he didn't want to go home even when he got to the doorstep..."

As Liang Tan listened to Luo Qingshan's words, waves of emotion surged in his heart, each one stronger than the last.

Liang Tan's eyes were blurry and she was about to cry again. This time, Luo Qingshan quickly picked up the handkerchief on the ground and put it on Liang Tan's face.

Luo Qingshan looked at Liang Tan's half-face covered by the handkerchief, and he couldn't understand it in his heart: "Let alone him, even I can't figure out why you are doing this."

"Tan'er, we didn't want to send you back to your parents back then. We all wanted to keep you in the Luo Mansion in the capital, but he later thought that the love of your parents was irreplaceable and didn't want you to be separated from them at such a young age, so he sent you away with tears in his eyes."

Liang Tan felt at ease just by listening to Luo Qingshan's voice.

Liang Tan remained silent.

Luo Qingshan talked a lot until his mouth was dry. Then he turned to Liang Tan and said, "... Tan'er, why don't you say anything?"

Liang Tan wiped away the tears from her eyes with her fingertips and smiled at Luo Qingshan.

"How come your smile is uglier than crying?"

The words were said with disdain, but Luo Qingshan had a distressed expression on his face: “Tan’er, have you suffered a great injustice?”

"No, I'm fine." Liang Tan swallowed her saliva and said to Luo Qingshan, "Uncle, it's great to see you again."

Luo Qingshan shifted the topic back to the beginning and asked, "Why didn't you go back to Luo Mansion this afternoon?"
