Lu Xingyue didn't answer.
Duke Rong Guo also knew that his question was redundant. If the eldest lady had not been so aggressive, he would not have reached this point.
He waved his hands tiredly, "That's all, go ahead and come back often in the future. No matter what, you are also a member of the Duke's Mansion."
Lu Xingyue lowered his eyes and asked Shen Lansui, "Are you leaving?"
Shen Lansui knew that this was the best outcome. The eldest lady was grounded and deprived of the power to run the family. She was so strong that she would be so jealous that she would vomit blood, especially when Lu Mingchao married Zhou Mengli, whom she despised. At that time, the person in power in the Duke's Mansion became Zhou Mengli...
Thinking about it, I'm quite looking forward to it.
Shen Lansui took a long breath and said, "Let's go."
She squeezed Lu Xingyue's hand and smiled slightly: "Let's go home."
"good."
Lu Xingyue pulled her away without looking at anyone again.
Duke Rong raised his head and wiped his face for a long time.
"Someone is coming——"
After giving the order, a guard immediately came forward, "Duke."
"Send the eldest lady back, find a doctor to take a look at her, put away all the sharp weapons in Lanxinyuan, send someone to keep an eye on her, and don't allow her to seek death. Lock the door, and don't let anyone in or out unless there is nothing wrong."
Duke Rong Guo was completely heartbroken this time. After speaking, he ignored Lu Mingwan's plea and turned around to leave.
Lu Mingwen helped the eldest lady into the bedroom, feeling worried. The doctor hurried over and said that Wan Pulse was due to a sharp fire attacking the heart. It was caused by excessive emotional ups and downs. She just needed to take good care of her.
Lu Mingwan breathed a sigh of relief and thought of his sister.
He hurried out and found Lu Jingzhi still sitting by the railing, his head lowered and his expression unclear, but his calm look made people feel heartbroken.
As soon as he walked over, Zhou Mengli and Lu Mingchao also came out.
Zhou Mengli was still wearing Lu Mingchao's outer shirt.
Lu Mingchao knelt down next to Lu Jingzhi and whispered: "Tianliang, go back to your room."
Lu Jingzhi looked at him and then at Zhou Mengli, then suddenly stood up, "Mengli, I'm sorry."
Zhou Mengli shook her head. Her eyes were swollen and she couldn't cry anymore. She said hoarsely: "It has nothing to do with you."
It really had nothing to do with her, but she couldn't face it.
Lu Jingzhi smiled bitterly, "You guys should go back to your room and have a good rest. I...I'm leaving first."
She bowed to several people and left quickly.
Lu Mingwan hesitated to speak and looked at Lu Mingchao again. Lu Mingchao nodded at him and was about to leave with Zhou Mengli.
“Wait a minute—brother!”
Lu Mingchao paused slightly, "Is there anything else?"
The tone was colder than ever before.
Lu Mingwan's nose felt sour, "Don't you want to recognize me as your brother?"
"How come, no matter what mother did, you are still my brother." Lu Mingchao said so, but he didn't even look at Lu Mingwan.
"Then why don't you go see your mother?"
Zhou Mengli shrank, and Lu Mingchao held her hand and turned back, "No, I'm afraid it will only irritate her if I go. I have already made it clear what I need to say, so that's it."
Lu Mingwan gave a wry smile, watched the two of them walk away, and punched the pillar bitterly for a while.
"Damn it, why did it become like this?"

Shen Lansui thought they were going back to Pinglan Courtyard to pack their things, but she didn't expect that Lu Xingyue directly pulled her out of the door. The carriage was ready outside.
"You really had a premeditated plan." Shen Lansui looked at Meng Cheng standing by the carriage and couldn't help but ask, "Are we just going to leave like this?"
Lu Xingyue nodded, helped her get on the carriage and said, "Just let Zhou Quan and the others pack up the things. All the items in the Marquis Mansion are ready and you can move in directly."
Hot tea and a hand stove were prepared in the carriage, and it was warm inside. Shen Lansui sat down, and later realized that her eyes were a little hot.
"So you went to the Hou Mansion when you left home early in the morning?"
Lu Xingyue sat down next to her and put the stove in her palm, "Well, I asked people to rush to clean up the Hou Mansion before your birthday, but because of the heavy snow, things were delayed, so it was delayed until this morning to finish it completely. .”
"I originally wanted to take you back to the Marquis Mansion after dinner to give you a surprise, but I didn't expect these things to happen, but it was just a little early."
Lu Xingyue took Shen Lansui's cold hand and rubbed it, "I don't know if you will like it."
Shen Lansui pursed her lips and held back her tears, "I like it. No matter what the Hou Mansion looks like, it is our home, and I like it."
Lu Xingyue stared at her silently. After a while, he raised his hand to hug her into his arms and whispered, "I'm sorry, I have made you feel wronged again."
Shen Lansui lay on his shoulder and shook her head, "No, I don't blame you. I am somewhat grateful to the eldest lady now. If she hadn't done this, we might as well have moved out of the Duke's mansion directly."
Lu Xingyue said nothing, but hugged her tighter.
How could you not feel aggrieved when your birthday was turned into this?
Shen Lansui was adamant, but Lu Xingyue could tell.
But she didn't want to say it, and he wouldn't reveal it.
The two hugged each other quietly for a while, and Shen Lansui's surging emotions gradually subsided.
In fact, it's not a big deal when you think about it. Although the eldest lady cannot be brought to justice, it has been done by betraying everyone.
Her proud son finally got rid of her control, and her husband was completely divorced. It is unknown whether he will take concubines again in the future. Her daughter knew her true identity. In the future, she will be in the Duke's Mansion. She could only live like a transparent person, which made her feel more uncomfortable than killing her.
enough.
After all, she was the daughter of the county king. If she was abandoned and returned home, it would be them who would be affected if the trouble was caused, and the loss outweighed the gain.
Shen Lansui thought about it, slowly let out a breath of depression, and withdrew from Lu Xingyue's arms.
Lu Xingyue looked at her. Although her eye circles were a little red, she didn't cry, and her eyes even lit up.
She grabbed his sleeve and asked: "Is the Marquis's mansion big? What does our bedroom look like? Can I raise some small animals? Suddenly I feel free!"
The more she thought about it, the happier she became, and she couldn't help laughing.
Lu Xingyue looked at her in surprise, not expecting her to adjust her emotions so quickly.
But looking at her bright smile, his heart became lighter.
"You can raise whatever you want. You can also plant flowers and grass. You can also build snowmen. You can build as many as you want. The Marquis Mansion is not particularly big, but it is more than enough for the two of us. You can decorate it however you want."
Shen Lansui laughed heartily, turned around and shouted to Meng Cheng who was driving outside, "Meng Cheng! Come on, I want to go home!"
Meng Cheng laughed, "Okay!"

The Mingying Marquis Mansion is really new. The nails on the vermilion door are shining brightly in the sun, and the two stone lions at the door are majestic.
I don't know if it was Shen Lansui's psychological effect, but she felt that even the steps at the entrance of the Marquis's Mansion were prettier than those of the Duke's Mansion!
She got off the carriage and looked here and there, and couldn't help but squeeze Lu Xingyue's hand, "Am I dreaming?"
