Sang Luo and Xiao Kui opened the door a few steps ahead of her.
A sudden burst of light shone in, and Zhiyi blocked her eyes with her hands.
"Knowledge!"
Hearing Lu Xuan's voice, Song Zhiyi suddenly put down his hand.
She stood up, tears welling up in her eyes, and rushed towards Lu Xuan quickly.
"elder sister!"
She wanted to snuggle into her arms and cry for a while, and Lu Xuan was prepared for this.
However, just when Lu Xuan was about to embrace her, she suddenly restrained herself.
She lowered her head, tugging at the hem of her clothes and whispering softly: "Sister is a princess now, I'm afraid my tears will stain your clothes. I'm fine..."
Lu Xuan sighed imperceptibly and gently pulled her towards him: "You've been wronged. How is Auntie now?"
Zhiyi then pouts and cries out of grievance.
Lu Xuan hugged Zhiyi and was shocked to find that she had lost so much weight. She seemed to have no strength at all, and there were many needle wounds on her hands.
Zhiyi stopped crying after crying for at least a cup of tea, but she was still sobbing while lying on her.
Lu Xuan released Zhiyi from his arms: "Why did you close the door? What's wrong with your body?"
Sang Luo walked into the room and took a look at Aunt Zhao. She was lying on the bed, her face pale and her body thin, and she looked like she was dying.
"Sister, I..." Zhiyi seemed embarrassed to speak: "We haven't eaten for three days..."
Lu Xuan's pupils widened. "How could this be?! After the servants leave, you can buy food for yourselves!"
Zhiyi shook her head. "After my father and mother entered the palace, the officials came again. They were worried that we might take the family's valuables, so they searched and took away everything! When my parents came back, they saw that only some food was left in the kitchen, so they detained it all. My aunt and I..."
Zhiyi kept sobbing, "So there was no other way. I thought of embroidering some things myself and selling them. That way I could at least make some money!"
Lu Xuan glanced at the small west wing and realized that Zhiyi was right.
Some of the valuable items were long gone, and the house looked even more shabby.
She paused and looked at her seriously: "Zhiyi, what do you think now? Do you still plan to stay with Li in the backyard, waiting to obey your parents' orders and wait for her to find you a husband?"
She shook her head like a rattle: "No, no! I want to earn money, I want to keep myself and my mother alive first!"
Lu Xuan smiled faintly: "You finally figured it out! Relying on others is easy, but once your support collapses, you'll be in a state of decline. Most people can only fight for their lives to break out of a bloody mess and get back on track! It's hard for ordinary people to bear such a price!"
She then asked, "What about Zhiyi's marriage? Is there any progress?"
Song Zhiyi shook her head: "None of this is that important. Mother is lying in bed and not feeling well. I just want her to get better first!"
Lu Xuan finally felt relieved: "The reason I came here today is actually to take you and Auntie away!"
Zhiyi suddenly looked up, her eyes sparkling with the impact of these words: "Sister, you want to take me away? Where to?"
She felt inexplicably embarrassed, twisting her handkerchief and blushing, she said, "As long as I can follow you, I'm willing to go anywhere! My aunt and I haven't followed you for nothing. I'm willing to do anything for you!"
Seeing her like this, Lu Xuan couldn't help but smile: "Just go to Wuyuan! All the businesses under my name need to be taken care of. I'm too busy right now, and I don't trust outsiders with it. You and my aunt are the most suitable! My aunt's family is in business, you can learn from her, I'm sure you can manage it well for me!"
She continued, "I asked you last time you went! But you were so determined to come back and get married, so I didn't stop you. Now's the perfect time to go!"
Zhiyi couldn't hide her self-blame: "I'm so stupid. My sister wanted to save me before, but I was too timid!"
“Only after you’ve experienced it yourself will you know how important it is to be independent.”
Jiang Xing stood aside and had just instructed Feixing to go out and buy some steamed buns, pancakes and other food that was easy to take away. Now Feixing had already returned with the things.
Lu Xuan placed the food on the table and said to Zhiyi, "You and Auntie, eat something first and pack your bags. The prince and I are going to look for Song Ming now. Come with me when you're done packing!"
Aunt Zhao also came out of the room at this time. She didn't expect that Lu Xuan, although a princess, still remembered her and her mother. She was so moved that she burst into tears and nodded in agreement.
When Lu Xuan walked out of the small west wing, Song Ming, Li and others were already waiting at the door.
They also just remembered the matter of Zhiyi and Aunt Zhao. Afraid that Lu Xuan would be angry, they all looked at her in a flattering manner, but in fact they felt guilty and worried in their hearts.
Lu Xuan looked at Li and said in a cold voice, "Zhiyi and Auntie are right here at home. I didn't expect the Song family to still be stubborn. Aside from you two, they don't care about anyone else's lives at all!"
Li recalled the slap she had given herself a few days ago and couldn't help shivering.
He shuddered and knelt down: "No, not my princess!"
She couldn't help crying: "So many big things happened in the past two days. It's not that we deliberately treated them harshly, but we thought they were like those servants and had already left long ago..."
She looked at Song Ming and said, "My husband and I were so busy that we forgot to come over. But to be honest, we are also wrong. The princess deserves the beating and punishment!"
Song Ming met Li's gaze and quickly nodded and bowed: "Yes, Princess, we were careless in this matter!"
He glanced at Song Chusi hurriedly: "Why don't you go get some food? Let Zhiyi and Auntie eat something!"
Hearing this, Song Chusi came to his senses, responded and was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xuan said with a sullen face: "No need! They are mine from now on!"
The Song family members stood there in a daze, yet they suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, no big fire broke out.
Mrs. Li felt a little jealous. She had raised her daughter for more than ten years, but she had not gained any benefits from her daughter and she was often beaten!
Now it’s a good thing for the man surnamed Zhao, as he can actually gain the favor of the princess!
Song Ming's tense nerves relaxed.
He finally looked at Lu Xuan expectantly: "Princess, are you here today to deal with the ghost issue?"
In addition to the matter of Song Chushi these two days, another thing that frightened them was the ghost that Lu Xuan mentioned.
Everyone was so scared that they couldn't sleep well these past two days. They wanted to kowtow to the old lady hundreds or thousands of times a day to stop her from harming everyone!
Lu Xuan glanced at him and walked past him expressionlessly: "Let's go take a look first!"
Li flatteringly led Lu Xuan to the mourning hall, but Lu Xuan walked right past it and headed straight for the ancestral hall.
The people from the Song family were stunned for a moment, then quickly followed.
The dark energy in the Song Family Ancestral Hall is getting heavier!
