The entire Eastern Palace was filled with joy. Countless people came to congratulate the Eastern Palace, but were all declined by Shangguan on the grounds of being unwell.

At this time, in the northwest corner of Shangguan Mansion, Lu Jinglang was curled up in the corner, sitting on the ground in a daze, and screaming from time to time.

The door creaked open and an old woman rushed in. She grabbed Lu Jinglang by the collar and slapped him twice.

"What are you howling for! You still think you are some kind of master? You are courting death. You have disturbed the joy of the Shangguan Mansion. I will peel off your skin!"

Lu Jinglang was beaten so hard that the corners of his mouth were broken, and he was thrown to the ground like a piece of rag.

She looked up at the old woman and trembled.

The old woman snorted coldly and called her a bitch.

At this time, another old woman came in and stood at the door and shouted excitedly: "Why are you here? The old lady gave you money."

"What reward?" The old woman's eyes lit up.

"There is a happy event in the East Palace. The emperor ordered that the military power of the Northwest Camp be handed over to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. After the old lady knew about it, she decided not to hold a birthday banquet, but to give out porridge and clothes instead, and give one or two taels of money to everyone in the mansion."

When the old woman heard this, she muttered, "There is such a good thing."

He didn't care about anything else and rushed to collect the reward money.

Lu Jinglang, lying on the ground, clenched his fists.

Why did she become like this while the Eastern Palace continued to rise?

So unfair!

Lu Jinglang glanced outside. The yard was quiet and no one was guarding it. She just had an idea.

Suddenly a black figure appeared and came to her side.

The man untied his large cloak and put it on Lu Jinglang, and asked with concern: "Miss Lang?"

Lu Jinglang looked at the person who came, tears welled up in his eyes, and he bit his lips tightly to prevent himself from shouting.

Mo Yunyao felt so distressed when he saw this, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe her, blaming himself and saying, "Miss Lang, I'm sorry, I have implicated you."

He didn't expect that in just half a month, Lu Jinglang was tortured into a state of being neither human nor ghost, with wounds all over his body.

Mo Yunyao's eyes were filled with anger: "Miss Lang, I will take you away. Sooner or later, I will make all these people surrender to you and kneel down crying and begging for your forgiveness."

Lu Jinglang raised his head in surprise and nodded aggrievedly.

Mo Yunyao wrapped the person carefully in his arms and just stood up when he heard the voice of the old woman coming from outside.

Hearing the sound, Lu Jinglang was so frightened that he trembled and grabbed Mo Yunyao's clothes tightly.

Mo Yunyao said coldly: "Did she attack you?"

Lu Jinglang said pitifully, "She was just following orders. Mr. Mo, I'm fine."

Mo Yunyao felt distressed: "Silly girl, you are still so kind."

As he spoke, he used his cloak to cover Lu Jinglang's head. Lu Jinglang did not struggle, but leaned obediently in Mo Yunyao's arms.

Suddenly there was a scream.

boom!

The sound of a body falling to the ground.

Lu Jinglang curled his lips when he heard the noise.

When I opened my eyes again, I had arrived at a clean and luxurious courtyard.

Several maids stood in a row and respectfully called out "Miss Lang".

Lu Jinglang was stunned.

"From today on, you are no longer Lu Jinglang of the Prince Shen's Mansion, but Miss Lang." Mo Yunyao held her hand and touched her red and swollen cheek with heartache: "You will remain anonymous for the time being. Sooner or later, I will let you appear in front of everyone openly."

Lu Jinglang smiled slightly: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

"You should have a good rest. I will come to visit you later."

Lu Jinglang nodded, and after watching Mo Yunyao leave, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and his eyes became sinister.

"Miss Lang, I will help you bathe and change your clothes." The maid came forward.

Lu Jinglang took a deep breath and nodded, allowing the maid to wash and dress him.

Sitting in front of the bronze mirror, Lu Jinglang looked at the ugly monster in the mirror and screamed in fright.

"what!"

The screams pierced my eardrums.

Mo Yunyao rushed in and asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"

Lu Jinglang covered his face and broke down crying: "Get out, all of you, get out! I don't want you to see me in this horrible state. I'd rather die than be dead!"

She never dreamed that she would become like this.

too ugly.

Even she herself looked scary.

I dare not imagine how Mo Yunyao felt when he saw it just now.

Mo Yunyao's face darkened and he waved his hand at the maid: "Everyone, leave!"

After the maid left, Mo Yunyao took a step forward, held Miss Lang, and said gently: "Your hair will grow again, and the wound on your face will slowly heal, don't be afraid."

With Mo Yunyao's comfort, Miss Lang's emotions gradually calmed down.

"If you hadn't saved me, I would have died long ago. I haven't had the chance to repay you all these years." Mo Yunyao choked up, thinking of the man who had harmed Miss Lang like this, he was furious: "I will definitely not let Lu Jingning have an easy time!"

If you were to ask who Miss Lang hates the most right now, it would definitely be Lu Jingning.

Miss Lang threw herself into Mo Yunyao's arms and burst into tears.

"Brother Mo, I don't know why Lu Jingning wants to plot against me. We are sisters who grew up together. How could she be so cruel? Kill my mother!"

Mo Yunyao raised his hand and touched Miss Lang's back, comforting her gently.

Only after he coaxed the person to sleep did he slowly get up and help him up and place him on the couch.

Mo Yunyao walked out lightly, glanced at the maid at the door, hesitated for a moment, and winked at the guard beside him.

The guard understood and raised the sword in his hand to cut off all the maid's hair.

The maid was terrified and knelt on the ground with a pale face.

Mo Yunyao waved his hand and said, "Each of you will be rewarded with fifty taels of silver. You must serve Miss Lang well. You are not allowed to wear heavy makeup, and you are not allowed to show any strange expression in front of the lady!"

"Yes!" The maids responded with a look of fear.

...

"Ma'am, something happened."

The maid hurried to find Murong and said, "Mrs. Wang is dead, and Miss Lang is missing."

Murong's face froze, and she frowned: "How can a weak woman like her run away?"

The maid said, "Madam, I have asked privately, and Miss Lang did not leave through the back door, and no one saw Miss Lang leave. I asked someone to look for her in the mansion, but she has not been found yet."

Murong's face was stern: "Keep looking, don't make any more trouble."

The birthday banquet was cancelled in the mansion these two days, and Murong was responsible for going to the households to apologize, and she had to compensate more than ten households a day.

After all the torment, Murong couldn't even lift her legs, and her throat was dry.

"Clean and send a few more people to check."

After searching the mansion for more than an hour and turning almost the entire Shangguan Mansion upside down, they still couldn't find the person.

However, a few guards discovered some clues.

Someone broke in and took Lu Jinglang away.

Murong Shi didn't get angry after hearing this: "It's better to leave. Staying in Shangguan Mansion is also a hot potato."

At this time, the maid outside the door came to report: "Madam, the old lady wants you to come over."

Upon hearing this, Murong had no choice but to muster up the energy to go there.

The old lady has been in a bad mood these past two days. The birthday banquet has been prepared for two months, and even relatives from other provinces have come.

But he was stopped by Shangguan Si.

The old lady felt so upset that she couldn't get over it.

"Is there any news from the Crown Princess?"

As Murong stepped into the room, the old lady asked her abruptly.

Murong hesitated for a moment and then shook his head.

"This child, why is he so stubborn!"

The old lady sighed helplessly: "I raised you for so many years, why didn't you give me any face? You even beat me to death. What else do you want?"

Murong always kept Shangguan Si's words in mind and dared not say a word against Shangguan.

"Mother, please calm down. The Crown Princess is just upset at the moment. Everything will be fine once she calms down. There is no way a mother and daughter could hold a grudge overnight." Murong advised.
