Quick Transmigration: What to Do When the Male Supporting Character You Saved Becomes Obsessed with

"Pfft—" Lu Liruan almost spat out her tea.

How could someone use such a calm tone to say something so hurtful and offensive?

The key is that it hits the nail on the head!

"Then?"

"I bought everything I liked, and as I was leaving, I saw them still looking around hesitantly, so I asked, 'Do you want me to ask the shopkeeper which set of jewelry is the cheapest here?' I was clearly just trying to be helpful..."

"Yes, you're so kind." Lu Liruan poured her a cup of tea.

"After that, the little thing started yelling at me. It was such a little thing that it barely reached my waist when it was jumping around. It was really annoying. So I told it: A noble young master would not make such a racket. If your father saw you behaving like this, he would probably punish you."

Lu Wanqing spoke calmly and steadily, without any haste or impatience, and then smiled shyly after finishing.

"Sister, do you think what I said is right?"

Lu Liruan couldn't help but scrutinize her closely; she didn't seem like someone who was pretending to be weak while actually being strong...

Unintentionally provoking someone is what makes people the most angry.

“That’s right, but next time you can’t let them get hurt. If they’re not disciplined again, I’ll definitely go to their house and demand an explanation. Do they really think our Marquis of He’an’s mansion is easy to bully?” Lu Liruan said, slapping her hand on the table.

"elder sister?"

"Click, click—" A faint sound came from inside.

Following Lu Wanqing's gaze, Lu Liruan saw a small crack in the middle of the fine yellow pearwood table...

Lu Liruan: ?

I just took a picture!

Lu Liruan subconsciously patted her leg; it didn't hurt.

Could it be that the "powerful" skill is released according to one's emotions? Because I was angry just now?

Lu Liruan thought to herself, muttering to herself: Dali!

He then slapped the table with the force of his leg.

"Crack—crash—" The table broke and collapsed completely in the middle, and the teacup fell to the ground and shattered.

……

The room was silent.

Pearl heard the noise and ran over. Seeing the table in two pieces, she murmured, "There weren't any cracks when I wiped it this morning..."

"Perhaps you didn't see it!" Yu'er pondered.

Good, at least no one thinks I smashed it with one slap. Lu Liruan herself found it absurd.

"Were you scared?" Lu Liruan asked Lu Wanqing.

Perhaps because the scene just now was so shocking, Lu Wanqing chose to believe that the table was originally broken: "No, sister, are you hurt...?"

After seeing Lu Wanqing off, Lu Liruan had a sudden thought, thinking to herself, "Wouldn't this skill be perfect for:"

Block up the dog hole!

With the day after tomorrow being the day to enter the palace, the ladies in the palace invited the girls from various families to come to the palace to pick a branch of newly sprouted branches to take home as a blessing.

It was on this occasion that Ji Shumin met Zhuang Yuxun.

Young men from various families would also enter the palace, but they would not stay with the women; instead, they would sit on opposite sides after the banquet began.

It's actually a kind of family matchmaking; with the arrival of spring, the year's marriage prospects for men and women are about to begin again.

This year, only Madam Gao and Lu Liruan from the Marquis of He'an's residence went there, because they wanted to keep a low profile regarding the annulment of the engagement.

Taking Lu Liruan along was only to meet the Empress Dowager.

Unexpectedly, the marriage was not called off, and Lady Gao asked Marquis He'an whether she should bring all three girls with her.

Marquis He'an pondered for a moment: "No, who knows who might be eyeing us now? It's best to keep quiet in our residence."

Mr. Gao agreed.

When Aunt Zhao heard the news, she cried for half the night, telling her maid about her heartache.

She said that her two daughters were of marriageable age, but why were the Marquis and his wife so indifferent?

"Ungrateful wretch, only eyeing her own little corner of the world." Madam Gao looked down on Aunt Zhao with one eye drooping.

"Luckily, the two girls weren't raised by her from a young age, otherwise, what would have happened?"

Early in the morning after entering the palace, Lu Liruan was woken up and made to dress in front of the dressing mirror before she was fully awake.

Seeing this, Lu Liruan realized that what she had been doing at home a few days ago wasn't dressing up at all; she had been completely casual.

Entering the palace was no easy task. When Lu Liruan was fully awake, she found that her head felt twice as heavy as usual.

When Lady Gao entered the palace, she wore the dark blue robes of a noblewoman, and she favored gold jewelry, which shimmered and sparkled, making her look exceptionally dignified and noble.

Lu Liruan wore a light red ruqun embroidered with silver thread, a pearl white blouse, and a cloak with equally exquisite silver embroidery. She also had a flower decoration on her forehead.

With delicate eyebrows, phoenix eyes, snow-white skin, and a beautiful face, she was so stunning that Madam Gao held her hand and looked her up and down.

"I wonder how many people envy me today for bringing such a beautiful girl like you into the palace!" Madam Gao chuckled, taking off a silver bracelet with openwork carving from her own wrist and putting it on Lu Liruan's wrist.

"I just bought this a couple of days ago. You have great taste in clothes; it suits you perfectly!"

"Thank you for the reward, Mother!" The two boarded the carriage affectionately, leaving Marquis He'an behind with a sigh.

A beautiful, literate, and capable daughter who knows how to manage a household—I couldn't keep her...

The arrangement of carriages in front of the palace gates was also meticulous, strictly following official rank and status, with eunuchs responding respectfully as they came and went.

The ladies and young women who knew each other well went ahead together to pay their respects to the various imperial concubines.

There are several imperial concubines in the palace. Apart from the one from the Lu family, the others all have their own princes and princesses.

After the current emperor ascended the throne, all the princes who had reached adulthood went to their fiefdoms, while their mothers remained in the capital.

The palace was solemn and dignified, with red walls and black tiles, all displaying the majesty of a dynasty. As Lu Liruan walked among them, she felt a strange sense of heaviness in her chest.

This place represents supreme power, the absolute authority over the world. Lu Liruan recalled a line from the original story that Ji Shumin had said that left a deep impression on her.

"I was born and raised here, and I have witnessed the imperial power that holds the world in its hands. It is only a step away. How can you ask me to give it up?"

Just by standing there, Lu Liruan began to understand.

Lu Liruan followed Madam Gao to see the Dowager Consort, a noble figure in the palace who, despite being over fifty, still possessed a radiant beauty. She resembled the Lu family's daughter, and Lu Liruan bore a striking resemblance to her.

The Empress Dowager held Lu Liruan's hand: "Child, you have chosen your own path, so you must walk it yourself. I can only watch over you for a while..."

After leaving the Dowager Consort's place, the ladies and young women of each family were able to move around a bit. Lu Liruan thought she should take this opportunity to block up the dog hole!

Following the route in her mind, Lu Liruan successfully slipped away to the outside of Songjing Garden, where His Highness the Crown Prince currently resides.

Crouching low, Lu Liruan searched halfway around the outside before finally spotting the narrow dog hole, about knee-high.

I pressed my ear against the wall to listen, but there was no sound from inside. Thank goodness, Zhuang Yuxun hasn't come over yet.

In the original storyline, Zhuang Yuxun was brushing the dirt off his clothes when he entered the courtyard, and Ji Shumin came out of the house, and the two met.

Ji Shumin should be inside the house now, as long as I keep my voice down... even lower.

Lu Liruan rolled up her sleeves and moved a stone from the bushes beside her.

Heave-ho!

Huh? So light!

There was a slope outside the wall, making it difficult to stand and push stones inward. Lu Liruan looked around and prepared to fill the gap from the inside out.

After placing the stones in their positions, Lu Liruan grabbed one corner of a stone, turned around, and crawled into the dog hole with her bottom first...
