Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost

Chapter 138 A New House with a Beauty

Lu Xunhuan drank tea with Wu Ya and talked about things. It was already late at night.

When he returned to Lang Tongzhi's residence, he heard from the servants that his residence had been cleaned up.

However, most of the maids and servants in the mansion were still busy setting up the mourning hall for the lady.

Several monks were invited back and were drawing talismans for salvation, rebirth, etc.

Lu Xunhuan walked up to the body of Lang Tongzhi's wife, looked at her young and beautiful face, and sighed inwardly.

Then he left quietly and returned to the residence that Lang Tongzhi had arranged for him.

After entering the courtyard, he said to Yun Zhongzi, "Great Elder, go to bed early."

Yun Zhongzi asked, "What are the plans for tomorrow morning?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "Go to the weapon refinery to see how much they have completed, and take some of it to exchange for the funds."

Yunzhong nodded: "Okay, then I will go to sleep first."

After Yun Zhongzi entered the side room, Lu Xunhuan entered the room prepared for him.

He struck the tinder and lit the lamp on the table.

But the moment the light came on, he suddenly saw a woman wearing a red headscarf sitting on the edge of the bed.

He was startled and instinctively took three steps back.

Then, he gathered himself, took two steps forward, and asked, "Who are you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Yun Zhongzi's door open, and then his door was pushed open. Yun Zhongzi came in like the wind, holding a magic sword.

Yun Zhongzi probably didn't expect the scene before him. After protecting Lu Xunhuan, he was also stunned for a moment.

The woman on the edge of the bed was also startled by the sudden situation. She hurriedly stood up and knelt in front of the bed.

She said timidly, "Sir, it was arranged by the Crown Prince."

Lu Xunhuan understood.

His Majesty sent the Crown Prince to Baocheng, firstly to give Lu Xunhuan a seat, and secondly to further observe and even examine Lu Xunhuan.

But after he arrived, he spent most of his time not doing his job. He hid in the houses of local officials and secretly met with their wives.

There was also a loss of life due to the assassination.

If this matter were to be reported back to Yingzhou City, His Majesty would probably be greatly disappointed.

The only Baocheng officials who knew the secret between the Crown Prince and the wife of Lang Tongzhi were Lu Xunhuan and Lang Tongzhi.

As long as the prince can deal with the two of them, no one will spread this matter.

So, he found a woman from somewhere and secretly sent her to Lu Xunhuan's room, asking him to keep the matter secret.

As for Lang Tongzhi, there is no need to waste all this effort. As long as the prince promises to promote Lang Tongzhi in the future, I believe Lang Tongzhi will never tell anyone even if he dies.

After Lu Xun Huan understood, he said to Yun Zhongzi, "Great Elder, go to sleep."

Yun Zhongzi sheathed his sword and said, "Good night."

After Yun Zhongzi left the room and closed the door, Lu Xunhuan sat down at the table.

He said to the woman, "Get up and sit at the table."

The woman stood up, bowed to Lu Xunhuan, and then came over to sit down.

Lu Xun Huan asked, "Where are you from, and how do you know the Crown Prince?"

The woman replied, "My father is a colleague of yours. The prince asked the father if he had any unmarried daughters. The father said yes, so the prince granted the marriage and gave me to you as your wife."

Lu Xunhuan asked again, "Who is your father?"

The woman replied, "He serves as a judge under the lord."

Lu Xunhuan understood that it was the daughter of Zhao Tongpan.

He pondered for a moment and said, "I have no intention of getting married yet. Go back. I will explain to your father tomorrow."

The woman said nervously, "But... this... I dare not disobey the Crown Prince's order..."

Lu Xun Huan said, "I'll talk to the prince, it's okay."

The woman shook her head and said, "Before sending me here, the prince said that I must...see blood tonight...otherwise, my father will be demoted to a commoner..."

To be honest, Lu Xunhuan didn't quite like Zhao Tongpan.

Zhao Tongpan had been an official in Baocheng for many years and was considered a local power. Many officials in the provincial government had close relations with him.

Lu Xunhuan and Lang Tongzhi were outsiders who were parachuted in.

In the minds of local officials, there is some distance between them and the airborne officials.

If the Crown Prince had not come in person to take charge, he might not have been able to order these local officials around.

But this incident made Zhao Tongpan's daughter a victim.

Even if he disliked Zhao Tongpan, he couldn't bear to hurt innocent people.

After pondering for a while, he said, "How about this? You stay with me first and help me clean up the place. We can keep it a secret from the Crown Prince for now. When he returns to Yingzhou City, I will take you home and return the jade intact to Zhao."

The woman asked, "But the prince is going to have sex tomorrow morning. How can we lie to him?"

Lu Xunhuan stretched out his hand: "Give it to me."

The woman took out a snow-white towel from her clothes and handed it to Lu Xunhuan.

Lu Xunhuan spread the white towel on the table, rolled up his sleeves, and cut his arm.

The woman watched silently for a while, then knelt down again: "My humble daughter, Zhao Lan, thanks you for your protection, sir."

Lu Xunhuan smiled and said, "You're welcome. I'm afraid your father always scolds me when he comes home, right?"

Zhao Lan shook her head. "When my father came home, he never talked about things at the government office. He had a lot to do. He had to work at the government office during the day, and when he came home at night, he had a lot of housework to deal with. He also had to deal with my mother and the other ladies. We brothers and sisters rarely had time to spend with him."

Lu Xun Huan finished fixing the white towel and pulled Zhao Lan up. "I understand. It's not easy for such a large family. Please take off the headscarf."

Zhao Lan listened to Lu Xunhuan's instructions and slowly took off her headscarf.

Lu Xunhuan suddenly felt that the room seemed brighter.

Her skin was very white, shining in front of his eyes like white moonlight.

She has a very beautiful appearance, with a pink and tender oval face, a straight nose, eyes as bright as autumn water, and delicate and sexy lips.

She was so beautiful that she could shame the moon and flowers, and looked very much like a female star in Lu Xunhuan's previous life.

Lu Xunhuan even looked at Zhao Lan carefully to confirm whether the female star had also traveled through time.

Zhao Lan lowered her head shyly: "Sir..."

Lu Xun Huan handed her the white towel and said, "Let me think about it. Given the Crown Prince's personality, he would definitely send Dragon Guards to investigate from time to time..."

He walked towards the bed and said, "The bed is big enough. Let's sleep. You sleep inside and I'll sleep outside. We can separate us with a quilt. Let's make a gentleman's agreement and not harass each other."

Zhao Lan looked at the bed, tacitly agreed to what Lu Xunhuan said, walked to the bed, took off her shoes, and lay down in it.

Lu Xunhuan waited until she was ready to lie down, then pulled a quilt over to separate them so he could lie down outside. He raised his hand and turned off the light.

He got up early the next morning because he was not used to sleeping like this and did not sleep well the whole night.

He opened the door and walked out: "Grand Elder, the weapon refining workshop."

Yun Zhongzi opened the door and followed him in a hurry.

After leaving the residence, he said to Lu Xunhuan, "Why are you working so hard? Just take advantage of the situation to build a family. Zhao Tongpan will be your father-in-law. From now on, no matter what you do in Baocheng or what new policies you introduce, everything will go smoothly."

Lu Xun Huan smiled and said, "Don't be impatient, Great Elder. Between two people, it always takes a long time to get to know each other before falling in love."

Yun Zhongzi said, "After we get married, we can just love each other slowly."

Lu Xun Huan shook his head and said, "The Crown Prince is so willful and reckless. How can I follow him? Zhao Lan is the daughter of the Zhao Tongpan family. If the Zhao family marries off their daughter normally, it should be a grand ceremony. What does this mean? What do they treat their daughter like? An animal?"

Yun Zhongzi nodded: "That's true, it's indeed outrageous."
