Madam Sheng San was also a little nervous. She looked at Lu Zhaoling warily and said, "I won't take you there now."

But she was a little panicked. Master Lu was so powerful, he should be able to figure out where that place was, right?

Madam Sheng San secretly winked at Yin Yunting.

Yin Yunting didn't know what she meant at first.

Madam Sheng San was winking at him again—

You're the Judge of the Netherworld now, aren't you? Suppressing the news from the Deep Swamp and preventing Master Lu from finding it should be no problem, right?

Only then did Yin Yunting understand what she meant.

Seeing Madam Sheng San's expression, Lu Zhaoling raised her hands, feeling both amused and helpless. "Okay, okay, I promise you I won't go to the deep marsh before I get married. Is that okay?"

Madam Sheng San quickly nodded and said, "Master Lu, I'm glad you think this way. You must remember that your father told you to protect yourself and wait for him to come back. This means he is still alive and will definitely come back to find you."

Lu Zhaoling gently turned the bracelet.

She looked at her master and said to him, "Master, don't worry, I won't go."

Yin Changxing nodded, "Master believes in you. You will do what you say."

Weng Songzhi, Rong Jingjing and the others also felt relieved. Since Lu Zhaoling had given her assurances again and again, she would not act rashly.

Originally, they were asking about the parchment scroll and the tragic death of Lu Zhaoling at the First Xuanmen. After being interrupted by Madam Sheng San, Lu Zhaoling did not return to the original topic.

She could see that her master was very reluctant to think about her death.

Jin Yuan looked at them. He was obedient and didn't say anything. He felt like he was still a child and couldn't interrupt at this time.

But he kept thinking in his heart what gift he should give to his senior sister for her wedding.

As the few people were chatting, the topic turned back to the roof beast they had seen before.

Lu Zhaoling originally wanted to go and take a look by herself, but now that Madam Sheng San has also arrived, Yin Yunting suggested that Madam Sheng San go first tonight. After all, Madam Sheng San’s cultivation level is now extremely high, and she should be able to see it.

Moreover, Master and his uncle could go again at night. It would not be convenient for so many of them to go onto other people’s roofs in broad daylight.

Seeing that they took all the responsibility on themselves and didn't want her to help, Lu Zhaoling agreed to their wishes to prevent them from worrying too much.

"Oh, by the way, I also need to tell Master Jiechi and Master Sizhen that there's news about their master and uncle. Those two young masters are worried about their whereabouts every day."

Lu Zhaoling simply asked Qingmu to pick up Jie Chi and Master Sizhen.

After the two young masters came over, Madam Sheng San told them again what had happened in the deep swamp.

After hearing this, the two young masters breathed a sigh of relief, but they also had new worries.

The relief was that they finally knew the whereabouts of their master and uncle, and now both of them were still alive. They finally didn't have to ask Lu Zhaoling whether they had the face of their dead master.

But he was worried about how evil the evil spirits in the deep swamp were. Could his master and his uncle suppress them? If they couldn't, wouldn't their lives be in danger again?

Jie Chi wanted to ask Lu Zhaoling, but Si Zhen stopped him and whispered to him, "Junior brother, didn't the Third Lady just say that our master and uncle will be fine for the time being, so don't ask the Third Lady for now. We can ask the Third Lady later if there is anything."

He could see that Donor Sanniang was not at all impatient when she talked about these things.

Jie Chi nodded and said, "Brother, I understand. Because Donor Lu is getting married soon, if I keep bothering her, Donor Jin Wang might come and twist my head off."

Sizhen touched his head and held back her laughter.

Jie Chi turned to Ms. Sheng San and asked, "Mrs. San, you won't be leaving these days, right? I haven't seen you recently."

Madam Sheng San happily pinched his face and said, "Oh, little master, did you miss me? I won't leave. The judge is here. I definitely won't go back to the Netherworld for the time being. I want to stay and drink in the master's wedding wine."

At this time, Weng Songzhi jokingly asked Madam Sheng San, "Madam San, the gift you just gave Xiao Ling'er was left to her by her father. So what gift will you give Xiao Ling'er yourself?"

Madam Sheng San said, "This is a secret. I will definitely wait until the day of the Master's wedding to give it to her. I won't tell you now, in case your gift conflicts with mine."

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw how mysterious she was.

It is almost impossible for their gifts to be the same as Ms. Sheng Sanniang's gift.

That night, Prime Minister Shen actually took Luo Qiu to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Luo Qiu lived in Jiqiu Garden in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Shen Xiangjun prepared some exquisite decorations for her and changed the color of the curtains and bed curtains, making them look comfortable and exquisite.

Luo Qiu likes it very much.

Prime Minister Shen felt relieved that Shen Xiangjun could do this and even praised her.

"I knew, Jun'er, you must be a sensible child."

Luo Qiu walked up to Shen Xiangjun, bowed, and said calmly, "Miss, from now on, we are considered a family. You must believe that I will never do anything that is detrimental to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Besides, you are still the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. I am just a woman with a pitiful life who wants to cling to the Prime Minister for the rest of her life. I am not a threat to you."

Although Shen Xiangjun had persuaded herself to accept Luo Qiu, she still couldn't bring herself to smile when facing Luo Qiu.

"I hope you'll keep your word."

Shen Xiangjun then said to Prime Minister Shen, "Father, this matter must have spread. I'm afraid the censor will impeach you tomorrow morning. Have you thought of a way to deal with it?"

Prime Minister Shen was a little impatient, "You don't have to worry too much about these things. As a father who has been an official for decades, are you still afraid of a few impeachments?"

Seeing that he knew what was going on, Shen Xiangjun stopped talking in an annoying way.

But she was a little anxious, "Father, can you explain to your daughter what you said today?"

Prime Minister Shen looked at her deeply and asked, "Do you really want to try again? You know full well that Prince Jin has no feelings for you at all. He's now bewitched by Lu Zhaoling and only has her in his heart. Even if you enter the palace, you might not be able to win his heart. Instead, you'll be suppressed by Lu Zhaoling in every way, and your life may not be comfortable."

"Jun'er, is this really what you want?"

Shen Xiangjun did not answer immediately.

She was silent, Zhou Shiyue's face appeared in her mind, as if it was deeply engraved, and she couldn't forget it even if she wanted to.

And even now, after being rejected by Zhou Shiyue so many times, Shen Xiangjun still feels that she should be with Zhou Shiyue and they should be husband and wife.
