After entering the book, the cold prince begs for favor

When Yuan Wanru woke up and heard the bad news, she wanted to beat Lu Jiangnian to death.

He hasn't done a single good thing since yesterday.

Judging from the situation, she really had to sleep in the same bed with him for the time being.

"Liuzhi, go talk to Aunt Bai. It doesn't matter what else you do, but at least leave me two quilts. If the weather suddenly gets colder and I don't have enough bedding at night, I'll get sick."

Even when lying in the same bed, you should use separate quilts.

The Chu River and Han River are separated by a line that no one can cross.

Fortunately, Lu Jiangnian’s previous bed was big enough, about 1.8 meters in size.

They both had slim figures, and there was plenty of space for two people to lie on it.

Lu Jiangnian had better keep a close eye on his hands and feet, otherwise she could make him impotent without anyone noticing.

Since the matter has become a foregone conclusion, she will not waste time thinking about it.

She composed herself, got up, dressed and washed.

Today, she should invite Cao Lanxin to have tea.

-

When Cao Lanxin received Yuan Wanru's invitation, she really didn't want to go at all.

But Liu Yan came and said, "Our eldest young lady's wife said that Miss Cao Sanbiao actually wanted to steal the document, which shows that her intentions are not sincere."

"I must discuss with you in person today how to calculate the interest."

"She doesn't want a third person to get involved in this matter. Otherwise, they will bear the consequences."

The words "you will bear the consequences at your own risk" made Cao Lanxin dare not move.

The incident with the magpie and the hawthorn had spread throughout the mansion. That woman had a strange mind and was playing tricks on everyone. My great aunt was so angry with her that she fell ill that day.

My second cousin has also been taking medicine these two days.

Yuan Wanru is a really poisonous woman. Cao Lanxin has something on her, so she doesn't dare to provoke her.

The place where they agreed to meet was at Tinglan Water Pavilion.

The view here is wide and it is a good place to discuss confidential matters.

Cao Lanxin arrived early as agreed, and waited for more than a quarter of an hour before Yuan Wanru finally arrived.

"Cousin, we have an appointment, why are you late?"

Yuan Wanru raised the corner of her lips slightly: "I just took a short nap, and I didn't expect to delay the time."

"You teamed up with Second Aunt and tried to steal the document from Lingshuiju. This was a very dishonest act."

"In contrast, you are ultimately in the wrong. I'm a little late, so you shouldn't be angry, right?"

Such a disrespectful attitude is really infuriating.

Cao Lanxin suppressed her anger and asked stiffly, "What advice do you have for my cousin?"

Yuan Wanru waved her hand, signaling Liu Yan to leave. Cao Lanxin glanced at her and also let Fangfei leave the pavilion.

"I know very well the reason you and your sister came to the capital. It's nothing more than looking for a good husband from a high-class family and a good marriage."

Cao Lanxin had this in mind, but her face still blushed when she was pointed out so bluntly.

She remained silent, and Yuan Wanru continued, "You should know that the more noble a family is, the more they care about being a good match and the woman's reputation."

"I can return this note to you, but you have to do something for me."

There's no such thing as a free lunch. Cao Lanxin clenched her handkerchief tightly and stared at Yuan Wanru, not knowing what she was up to.

Yuan Wanru picked up the teapot, slowly poured a cup of tea, pushed it to Cao Lanxin, and then poured a cup for herself.

She picked up the teacup and drank it slowly. Seeing Cao Lanxin's increasingly tense expression, she finally spoke: "The day after tomorrow, find a way to invite Liang Yusong to go shopping for clothes at Hongxiufang on Zhuque Street."

"When the time comes, you must let Liang Yusong go into the dressing room to try on clothes."

"This shouldn't be difficult to do."

Cao Lanxin bit her lip and didn't dare to agree: "What are you going to do? Are you going to deal with Sister Liang?"

Yuan Wanru nodded, not shying away from the matter: "She offended me, and I was just fighting back."

Seeing that Cao Lanxin seemed indignant for Liang Yusong, she mocked her: "Do you think she is sincere to you?"

"She comes from a wealthy family and has seen countless intrigues and deceptions. When I asked you to write the document, it was obvious that I had ill intentions. She saw through it a long time ago, but she didn't say it out loud because she was afraid of offending me."

"Also, why do you think I knew that Magpie and Hawthorn came to play?"

"And she, by coincidence, caught him red-handed together with Aunt Gui?"

Cao Lanxin looked at her in disbelief: "You mean, she told you about it?"

Yuan Wanru didn't answer directly: "I hardly ever go to Rongshou Hall. You and Second Aunt were seeing each other secretly. How could I possibly have discovered it?"

"She lives in the Jade Pavilion, which is right next to Rongshou Hall. She knows everything you do."

Cao Lanxin didn't completely believe her words.

However, suspicion breeds evil, and the more I think about it, the more these words make sense.

"I don't understand why she wants to please you?"

Yuan Wanru sneered: "Of course you don't understand, she is not trying to please me, she is just lowering my guard so that she can get closer to my husband."

"You probably haven't noticed, but Liang Yusong has always called me 'Miss Yuan' since we met. She simply doesn't want to acknowledge my status."

"Also, many times, she looked at her husband with an unclear look in her eyes. Women are the most sensitive to such things. Now, you know why I hate her."

Cao Lanxin was surprised to find that it was true. It turned out that Liang Yusong secretly liked her cousin?

She seemed to have seen the look that Yuan Wanru mentioned.

Liang Yusong's thoughts are hidden very deeply.

"I was so sincere to her, and she actually plotted against me to please you."

In this case, she must have been the one who leaked the matter of the magpie.

"Okay, I promise you, but you have to return the receipt to me first."

Yuan Wanru had expected Cao Lanxin's reaction. She and Liang Yusong were just superficial sisters. Moreover, this matter only required her to secretly act as a middleman, and she could also get the receipt back. This deal was a sure win for her.

"I've entrusted such confidential matters to you. We're in the same boat now, so why are you so anxious?"

"I'll give you the receipt after the matter is completed."

"Of course, you don't have to agree. I can still get the money anyway. At worst, I can just find another way to deal with Liang Yusong."

Having said that, Cao Lanxin no longer had any room for bargaining.

Night fell as expected.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and Wang Min is busy arranging all matters related to the gift-giving for the festival at home. She has told Yuan Wanru that she doesn't need to pay her respects in the next few days.

She had dinner at Lingshuiju.

Nanny Pang helped her wash up early. Looking at the rising moon outside, she muttered, "The eldest master hasn't come home yet so late. I wonder if he has had dinner yet."

Yuan Wanru's mood, which had finally calmed down, was disturbed again by this sentence.

Tonight, there were no extra mattresses, so they had to sleep on the floor.

It would be best if that person doesn’t come back tonight.

Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. Just as this thought flashed through her mind, she heard Aunt Bai's bright voice outside: "The eldest young master is back."

After a while, steady and powerful footsteps gradually approached. When I looked up again, the handsome face with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes was already in my sight.

"Madam, I'm back."

Yuan Wanru looked at him with disdain and sighed secretly, I really don’t want to see you.

Congested.
