Lu Anran never understood why Chunmiao always had such high interest in matters such as family disputes.
"Young lady still remembers that on the day when the master announced the selection, he originally asked the second young lady to go to the royal capital to study in Jixia Palace. The second master took advantage of this good news and told our master about the outer chamber."
Lu Anran had some impressions, mainly because Chunmiao had been talking about the excitement in the second room, but until they left Mengdu, they didn't see the outer room entering.
"I heard from Xibi who was next to the second lady that it was the second lady who made a big fuss. In addition, the second lady didn't go to Chengji's palace later. The second master didn't want to mention it again, so he delayed it."
"Is Lu Jianyu related to this matter?"
"Miss, you can't guess that the second lady personally proposed the matter of taking her back to the outer room."
Lu Anran twisted a piece of pear blossom cake and asked, "What conditions does Second Aunt have?"
Chunmiao smiled and said: "Young lady is wise. The second lady said that she can be taken back to the outer room, but the second lady must also be sent to Jixia Palace."
Lu Anran laughed. She was not wise, but she knew her second aunt's character too well. If there was no benefit, she would not be able to do anything early, and there must be a reason for being greedy for evil.
"You can enter Jixia Palace if you want. The Second Madam must have thought too well." Chunmiao curled her lips disdainfully, "Finally, the Second Master came to our Master again and settled on Chengjun Academy."
No matter what, Chengjun Academy will give face to the Mengdu Lu clan chief.
Lu Anran finished eating a piece of pear blossom cake, took two sips of tea, and said, "You are wrong. Second Aunt's goal is Chengjun Academy."
"Yeah!" Chun Miao's eyes slowly rolled around, and she understood. Even she knew that Jixia Palace was not easy to enter. How could the second lady not understand that she was deliberately forcing the second master to beg for help from him.
"Second Madam is really good..." Chunmiao didn't dare to say the word cunning. She was just a slave and thought about it in her mind. It was hard to arrange her master's words with her words.
After going back and forth like this, Lu Jianyu hurriedly hurriedly arrived at the royal capital before the 28th.
After Chun Miao finished speaking, Lu Anran almost finished a plate of cakes with tea and was about to go down to rest for a while when Chun Miao took out another post.
"Spring banquet?" Lu Anran was even more surprised after opening it and looking at it, "Did Lu Jianyu send it?"
Chun Miao said angrily: "I don't want to make the young lady angry with this matter, but I should let the young lady know. If the second young lady does this, she will not take the young lady seriously."
"Let's not talk about whether the second lady, a young lady who has not yet left the cabinet, is entertaining alone. It will attract gossip and give others a handle. Even if the post is made in the name of the Lu family, in terms of the order of seniority and youth, she should not cross Miss you.
It was better for the second young lady. Once she arrived in the royal capital, she did nothing but posted posts everywhere. After the slave asked a question, she brought out the old lady. "
Lu Anran folded it up and put it back. He was not as angry as Chun Miao, so he said in a calm tone: "Let her go."
"Miss, are you going?"
"I won't go." She was not interested in this banquet or that banquet.
"This slave is afraid of causing trouble."
"Since it is the mistress's wish, it is not Lu Jianyu who is hosting the banquet, but the Lu family."
"This slave understands." He was just so angry!
What a spring feast, a heavy rain will do it for you.

Whether or not Ji Xia Gong was resting for the first time or not had little impact on Lu Anran. There were only two people in the medical profession, and Lei Weng was still wandering around.
However, it was a pity that she was delayed from her pharmacy class, which was held every ten days. In addition to autopsies and bone examinations, she also had an unusual interest in making poisons and medicines.
"Miss, can you learn like this?" After Chunmiao finished speaking, she muttered: "It's true that Mr. Lei doesn't even come to class, so why should he accept students?"
Chunmiao felt that her young lady had entered a fake Jixia Palace.
"Treating a disease requires prescribing the right medicine, and people are just like that." During the two years of "fighting wits and courage" with the old man in Mengdu, Lu Anran has become accustomed to free-range teaching.
Today, she encountered something that puzzled her in her classwork, and she needed to go to Yibian Sect.
Chun Miao sent him out, "Recently during the Qingming Festival, the gates of ghosts are wide open. When it gets dark, people have to give way to ghosts. Miss, please don't come back too late."
Lu Anran responded, but as he was busy working, it got dark before he knew it.
When she came out of the house, the faint moonlight shone down from the sky, the distant mountains were melting with ink, the shadows of the trees were dancing, the surroundings were dark and completely silent.
"Alas..." A soft sigh was blown away by the wind, filled with misty resentment.
Lu Anran was startled by Meng Buding, and his face turned pale under the brocade mask.
She calmed down and heard another sigh, only to realize that the sound came from above the low house in front.
On the roof, a large black mass moved, looked in the direction of Lu Anran, and said quietly: "Girl, you are here."
Lu Anran finally heard this voice, "Master Lei?"
Lei Fuzi, who was said to be wandering around, suddenly came back without saying a word. It was still late at night during the Qingming Festival, and he was sighing like a resentful ghost. Anyone else who met him would have been frightened and fainted.
"It's better here. The moon is full, the wine is pure, and there are so many disputes and disturbances outside, why bother worrying too much." Lei Fuzi didn't know what he would encounter outside, and he felt sad about the moon, "You think so, Girl?"
Lu Anran was silent at Master Lei's sentimental side, changed the subject and asked, "Where did Master Lei go back to now?"
Lei Fuzi did not answer. He was drinking wine, as if he was quiet in his own world. After a while, he suddenly said: "I knew from the first time I met you that you are a tough kid, but you are too stubborn. .”
I didn't know what I was thinking of, so I sighed: "Girl, Master advises you to be persistent, but not stubborn."
"Having said so much." Lu Anran looked up at the black mass and said, "Master, actually you have never left the capital, right?"
Leon's drinking hand stopped, and the embarrassed look on his black face was covered by the dark night, "Nonsense, what are you talking about? How are you doing with the two bones? Are you done? I'm going to check your homework."
Lu Anran: "..." Changing the subject so abruptly is not self-defeating.
What surprised Lu Anran was that when she came to find Lei Weng the next day, not only had Lei Weng left again, but the two bones were also missing.
Lu Anran couldn't laugh or cry immediately. She suspected that it was a mistake for her to join the Medical Discipline Sect, and that it was all deceived by Lei Weng.
However, this further confirmed my guess that these two corpses were not simple.

Returning to Jiqingfang that day, I just walked in and saw a man sitting lazily under the osmanthus tree with a pot of tea and three plates of snacks.
For a person who is more relaxed and comfortable in other people's homes than in his own, and who expresses a different kind of romantic charm by whether he is sitting or not, he has no other choice but Mr. Yunshang.
"Look at the look in your eyes, I just drank a pot of tea from you." Yunqi turned his head, looked at Lu Anran who was standing still at the door and said, "I should bring my own tea."
Lu Anran discovered that the tea brewed in the teacup was Zhongshan Yunwu Tea brought back from Yi County.
"Is the case in Yi County closed?" Lu Anran sat down and asked.
Yun Qi put his right hand on the armrest of the chair, patted his palm and said, "Speaking of this, old man Cheng Jiuwan really couldn't wait to perform the memorial. The emperor even specially summoned me to the palace for this purpose."
Lu Anran held the tea cup and said, "The Emperor doesn't doubt you?"
Yun Qi raised an eyebrow, "My men are all very capable."
Lu Anran understood that it was covered up.
"But this time when I entered the palace, I got some other news." Yun Qi's black eyes flashed with a hint of ridicule, "Qi Shang was transferred from the Langshan Camp and appointed as the commander of the Royal Guard Battalion's Xiaoqi, and his official rank was from the fourth rank .”
"It rises brightly and falls darkly." Lu Anran said in a low voice.
The captain of the army has thousands of men under his command and is in charge of leading the troops.
The Royal Capital Guard Battalion's Qiaoqi Shenjun leader, who sounds nice, but actually has only a hundred people, oversees the security responsibilities inside and outside the Royal Capital City.
The Royal Capital City is a mixed bag, and there is no shortage of noble families. If you work as a servant in the Royal Capital City, you don't know the depth of it. If you step in, you may lose your life.
The guard camp also maintains stability in the city, and those who can cause disputes in the royal capital mostly come from rich families. These people are often backed by their families and are not easy to offend.
Therefore, this job is, to put it bluntly, unpleasant.
The two of them didn't explain it, but they both understood it in their hearts.
In the case of the soul-inducing beheading that was concluded before, the emperor issued an edict to arrest corrupt officials, revoked titles, built monuments and tombs, and acted quickly and decisively, which attracted praise from the people.
But the emperor is the emperor. He was angry in this matter, and it was obviously difficult to vent it out. He had to find another way to calm down.
Yun Qi's identity was there. Sicheng, the criminal minister, was the emperor in order to maintain stability. His promotion and demotion had no impact on Yun Qi.
Therefore, Qi Shang could only be angered.
Who asked you to be a captain of the Langshan camp to take care of any cases? Don't you like to hang out in the capital city? I will give you this opportunity.
Yun Qi held the tea lid in his hand and pushed away the foam, took a sip of tea, raised his head and said, "I'm leaving the capital for a few days."
Lu Anran looked over in confusion. What does it mean: Why do you want to tell me whether you can leave or not?
"This time, Mo Yan is with me." Yun Qi explained that this was the reason why he made a special trip today.
Lu Anran frowned: "Is the matter difficult to handle?"
Yun Qi raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Do you care about me?"
Lu Anran pursed her lips and stopped talking.
"There is no danger, but it is not clear yet and there are not enough manpower." Yun Qi pointed at the table with his finger, "Don't worry, there are other guards arranged for you, but it will take two or three days at night."
"No, I should be fine here."
As Yun Qi's confidant, Mo Yan couldn't always be her coachman. Besides, King Yun Qi wouldn't bring too many people with him, and it was inconvenient to use the people in charge of the punishment department. It was usually fine, but once he did something, There is a bit of a shortage of manpower.
Princess Ding'an didn't appear to cause trouble again, at least she gave up for the time being.
Besides, although the emperor and Concubine Shu agreed that she had just stolen Lei Weng Yahui, at least she had made a clear path to meritorious service in front of the emperor. In any case, Princess Ding'an had to weigh it even if she wanted to find trouble.
Speaking of causing trouble for her, Lu Anran thought of another person, "How did the prince deal with the 'Fox Great Immortal'?"
Lu Taotao is a person who gives everyone a headache when they meet her. She has an unstable personality and endless tricks that make people hate her, but they can't tell her the biggest mistake.
For example, this time she pretended to be a fox fairy and deceived people. You said she was evil, but she saved many women who had no way to survive.
"Put her in jail and make her pay for the money that Tong's family spent on several shops that were burned down." Yun Qi gloated, "Su Ji has been tortured by her these past two days."
Lu Anran asked one more question, "Have you compensated the Tong family?"
Yun Qi said with a deep smile: "Tong Xiuzhen is also a member of the Tong family."
