At the gate of the city where people were coming and going, a charming girl stood beside her.
The maid next to her pulled her sleeves nervously: "Girl, let's, let's go back. If the old lady finds out that we sneaked out, she will definitely beat the slave to death."
The little maid was about to faint from fright. She was not the maid brought by Luo Sijia from home, but a son of the Tang family, who was sent to her by the Ji family.
Luo Sijia impatiently rolled up her sleeves and swept the little maid aside.
She didn't know how her thoughts were discovered. After realizing that Tang Chongli had left the house, she knew that if she couldn't find a way to save herself, she would definitely be thrown into the carriage returning home tomorrow.
The capital was so good, but Tang Quyan was only a fourth-rank official, and his mansion already had a deep courtyard, mountains and lakes.
If so, what if she could stay with the prince?
She knew that with her background, wanting to be a princess was a foolish dream.
But, she can be his most favored concubine.
She didn't know how long it would take for them to come back after leaving the city. She didn't want to be sent back, so she could only wait for the opportunity at the city gate.
They were using the Tang Mansion's carriage, and Song Junyan was discussing with Tang Quyan the follow-up arrangements and how to allocate the manpower of Dali Temple and Shuntian Mansion.
This major case has been reported to the emperor's desk. For three days in a row, a young girl died tragically every day. Once this news spread, all the families in the capital who had girls of that age would be uneasy.
After the morning court meeting, the emperor called them to the Wenhua Palace and reminded them not tactfully that if they couldn't solve the case as soon as possible, they could find a way to get the news from Lu Xinran.
Now that there are definite clues, the follow-up task is how to end it.
"Your Highness, let's..."
Before Tang Quyan finished speaking, the carriage suddenly stopped, and the driver's voice came from outside the carriage.
"Sir, my cousin has stopped the car."
Tang Quyan was stunned for a moment before he realized who the cousin the coachman was talking about was.
What is she doing here?
Tang Quyan was about to ask a question through the car curtain when he heard a soft voice coming into the car.
"The daughter of the common people has met His Highness."
Tang Quyan: "...?"
When he met Song Junyan's narrowed eyes, his face suddenly darkened.
"Go and let Tang Shun take the cousin girl home personally!"
Song Junyan helplessly raised his hand to rub his eyebrows, and the familiar complaints came as expected.
[Sure enough, taking the initiative will tell the story. Luo Sijia has bravely ran away from the Tang Mansion. Shouldn't he have someone take him to the courtyard in the city in a small sedan? 】
[Then after the wedding, he will take her hand into the palace and tell his princess that this is his sweetheart. 】
[After that, I had sex with the princess and my concubine to the extreme, which is in line with the temperament of a pervert. 】
[Hey, why were people sent away? How could he be so cruel when people broke through all the obstacles for him? 】
The more Lu Xinran looked at it, the more pity she felt, "But how did she get out of the house?" She first bribed the servants around Tang Chongli, and now she can leave the house at will. Will she leave or come back? 】
[At that time, whether you secretly follow Song Junyan or let Tang Chongli's servants help create opportunities, you will definitely win. 】
Tang Quyan listened to all his thoughts: "?!!"
Thank you so much~!
He would never give Luo Sijia the slightest chance. Not only would he ask his close associates to send her back in person, but he would also leave someone there to keep an eye on the Luo family's activities.
When Luo Sijia got married in a sedan chair, when did he withdraw his eyes?
The carriage started moving forward again. Through the window, Lu Xinran saw Luo Sijia, who was stopped by the servants and still wanted to get closer.
"Sister, don't you think it's strange? Luo Sijia is just a cousin girl who came to visit her relatives. How did she get so many tricks?"
Lu Xinlan smiled and looked out the car window: "If a person has a goal, she will definitely find a way to overcome all difficulties to achieve it."
It was just a calculated calculation but not intentional. She hid her thoughts deeply, and the Tang family were all simple-minded people, so it was normal for her to take advantage of her.
"But……"
Lu Xinran hesitated for a long time, then murmured in a low voice: "You said that she failed to achieve her wish with the fourth prince. Will Tang Chongli settle for second best again?"
Lu Xinlan thought about it seriously and then shook her head.
"Master Tang and Mrs. Tang should be on guard. If Master Tang is accidentally tricked..."
That was because the Tang family was stupid. Lu Xinran's continuous voice could not make them prepared. If Tang Chongli ended up with a bleak future, no one would be able to blame him.
The carriage took them directly back to the Lu Mansion. After entering the house, they went back to their room to freshen up and change their clothes. Lu Xinran touched her withered belly and realized that they had not had lunch yet.
Mrs. Pei learned that they had returned home and received news that they had gone to Yi Zhuang outside the city. She also had someone prepare a brazier for them.
Step over it and the filth will be removed.
After the two sisters did as they were told, they entered her room.
Simple food was already placed on the table. After the two sisters said goodbye, they all started to eat.
"You didn't go to the Tang family to meet Mrs. Tang and the eldest girl of the Tang family, why did you go to Yizhuang again?"
Lu Xinran put down the bowl and chopsticks with satisfaction, and then recounted everything he saw at the Tang family and at Yizhuang today.
"Oh my god, how can there be such a crazy evil person? Can this person be caught immediately?"
Lu Xinran nodded, "I believe Master Tang can do it."
[I helped them narrow down the scope of the murderer to just a few guys. If they are still not close enough, then they should resign as soon as possible and go back to their hometown to grow sweet potatoes. 】
Knowing that she had helped discover the murderer, Pei's heart dropped.
"It's the birthday of the old lady of the Duke's Mansion in a few days. Why don't you take a rest in the mansion for a few days? Girl Xinran, you should also learn the etiquette carefully in the past few days."
Lu Xinran smiled and agreed. She had just asked. This time she went to Yizhuang to see the last moments of the three girls' lives. Maybe she could help Tang Quyan and the others solve the case. The system generously gave her thirty days of life.
Then Luo Sijia also contributed two days to her. She exceeded the task during this trip and could rest at the house for a few days.
When Pei and Lu Xinlan heard that she had thirty-two days of health, they all smiled and were happy for her.
"Old madam," Nanny Xu hurriedly walked in and glanced at the two girls. She hesitated for a moment and then said immediately: "The third master's case has come to an end. He has been sentenced to eighteen years of exile. He will set off today."
Exile indeed!
Lu Xinran was not surprised at all by this result.
Even the system couldn't determine whether Lu Kanghe was Lu Jinchuan's father. Even if Lu Jinchuan had doubts in his heart, he was his son who had been partial to him for decades, and how could he be willing to see him die.
Moreover, he was negligent and hurt others, but it did not fall into the category of beheading.
Mrs. Pei snorted, feeling unlucky after hearing the news.
"Aunt Wang is outside the hospital and would like to see you."
"See me?" Mrs. Pei rolled her eyes in disgust: "She wants me to help her good son take care of himself so that his journey to exile can be smoother. Go tell her and stop bothering me, otherwise his journey will be smoother. I will definitely not do such a thing, but I can make her son’s life worse than death on the road.”

Luo Sijia, who had all the exits blocked: Listen to me, thank you!
