Chapter 384 Reunion

The tea in the flower hall in the front yard had long since gotten cold.

Zhang Yu sat elegantly in his chair as usual, twilight had already enveloped the courtyard long ago, but the night sky was again scalded by the lanterns hanging under the corridor, the sand of the leaky carving flowed slightly in the meantime, and a furnace of water-sinking incense that was lit on the corner of the table had already fallen silent. Luo Ji sat on this side of the table, his posture still upright, but, nevertheless, looking a little too serious under Zhang Yu’s idleness.

“Zhang Shangshu’s questioning ……”

“Big Miss! Big Miss, you stay back!”

Luo Ji had just opened his mouth to break the silence when a loud noise came from outside the door, someone breaking into the courtyard with quick steps, and then someone else shouting to stop them.

Hearing this “big girl”, Luo Ji suddenly froze, both eyes burst out a sharp light to look at the door, at this time the doorway was dimly lit, someone had already walked in!

“Senior Zhang! I have something to say!”

Luo Yanru rushed into the room and immediately said loudly towards Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu immediately stood up because of this sudden situation, looking at Luo Ji and then Luo Yanru: “Miss Luo?”

“Minister Zhang, I have an inside report on the deaths of Princess Yanping and the Eldest Princess!”

Luo Yanru had already taken advantage of this to quickly walk to Zhang Yu’s side. Luo Ji’s voice and color changed, and he immediately reprimanded, “The eldest girl is crazy! Men, quickly drag her back to me!”

The subordinates surged up, Luo Yanru hurriedly hid behind Zhang Yu, who also subconsciously blocked her, “What’s going on?!”

Luo Ji stares at Luo Yanru, his entire face has been deformed, “You come out!”

“Elder Imperial Master!”

“Senior Zhang! This is our family matter, please stay out of it!”

Luo Ji said and went up to drag Luo Yanru!

Luo Yanru was in the end a weak woman, and in this situation, she tried her best not to lose her temper, so how could she struggle against Luo Ji? As she was about to be dragged out, she opened her mouth to tell the truth, but the subordinates came up to cover her mouth! Zhang Yu is also confused by the situation, but he doesn’t ignore Luo Yanru’s earlier words and immediately orders, “Someone come!”

“Coming!”

Outside the door, people did come in response, their clear voices especially bright in the midst of the chaos!

Leading Liang Ying and a group of guards into the Zhao Su looked around the room, and immediately said: “Yo, Luo Taishi this is how how?”

Apparently no one expected her to show up, Zhang Yu stopped, Luo Yan Ru stopped struggling, Luo Ji’s face twitched, revealing a great deal of consternation!

Without his answer, Zhao Su doesn’t ask any further questions and walks up to pull Luo Yanru up, then says, “Miss Luo, what happened to you? If you believe me, you might as well talk about it here.”

This sentence was also a hint, if Luo Yanru chose to believe her and tell her the ins and outs, then it would show that she indeed did not stand with Luo Ji. With Luo Yanru having a stand, she would also be able to choose what to do.

“Miss Su!” Luo Yanru’s voice was trembling, she tightly clasped back Zhao Su’s hands, unable to tell how she felt at this moment, the excitement in her eyes since it was out of the conflict just now, but also because of the relaxation born from Zhao Su’s steep appearance, “I have something to say, I have something to report to the emperor and the empress dowager, take me there quickly!”

“Yan girl do not be afraid, what is the matter you now in front of the face of Zhang Shangshu first say no harm!”

Luo Yanru also knows that it makes no difference where she says it, so she turns her head to look at the furious Luo Ji, and says word for word: “I know who hijacked the Yanping county princess, and I know who killed the eldest princess, and the tragedy of the Huo family was caused by Marquis Jingnan’s complicity with my grandfather – ”

“Shut up!” Luo Ji angrily rebuked, “You deceitful Luo family unfilial daughter, how dare you slander your own grandfather! The imperial court will not tolerate you!”

Zhao Su coldly stared over: “The cleaner is the clearer, old master need not be so agitated, if Miss Yan’s words are true, then her actions are for the greater good, she is eliminating the treacherous party for the court! For this kind of sensible woman, the court praise is not too late, how can still force her to do this kind of stupid filial piety?”

Luo Ji only gritted his teeth and stared angrily.

Luo Yanru, who originally had a trace of worry in her heart, was completely down to earth!

Zhao Su asked her, “Is there any evidence for what Miss Yan said?”

“I guarantee with my life that everything I said is the truth! If you don’t believe me, you can just pull the three officials who filed a lawsuit against the Flower Moon Club this morning and arrest them for interrogation, then you will know that they have long since become my grandfather’s subordinates, and even though I don’t know those two squires, if you look into it carefully, you will surely be able to find out the evidence that they have dealings with my grandfather or the Marquis of Jingnan!”

Luo Yanru’s words were forceful and loud, making it impossible for people to question them.

Zhao Su swept Luo Ji a glance, and then looked to Zhang Yu: “Dare I ask Zhang Shangshu tea finished?”

This trip was not meant for tea, Zhang Yu said with his hands in the air, “The Princess is a minister of the country, but I never thought that the cause of her death was something else, Luo girl has provided such important clues, so now we will go to the palace to see the emperor and the empress dowager to show the emperor and the empress dowager! –Master Luo, I’ll have to ask you to make a hard trip as well!”

Luo Ji glared at Luo Yanru, a mouthful of teeth already clenched.

Liang Ying waved his hand, and the guards arrived on either side of him, a pressure invariably forced its way over.

Luo Ji took a deep breath and looked at the deep night outside, slowly lifting his feet.

Liang Ying beckoned further out and two more guards came in. He said, “Tell the brothers to guard all the exits of Luo’s house, and from now on, no one is allowed to leave or enter! Wherever Luo Ji lives, we will send our own people to guard them. Until the Emperor has a new decree!”

“Yes!”

The guards quickly passed down the order, and the previously quiet Luo Mansion was suddenly filled with noise.

The full moon in the sky had already climbed to the top, and the lively voices of the people celebrating the festive season were still coming from outside the walls of the mansion, which was completely different from the Luo family’s clamor at the moment.

Zhao Su and Liang Ying walked out of the Luo family side by side, and suddenly turned around and asked him: “Now, do you still miss Yu Qingping?”

Liang Ying gouged her out, “You can shut up if you really don’t have anything to say.”

Zhao Su giggled, “If you had accidentally become the son-in-law of the Marquis of Jingnan, you would be all over the world trying to save your father-in-law at this time!”

Liang Ying was bashful, flipped onto her horse, slapped her horse’s tail, and ran off down the street in a puff of smoke.

Zhao Su withdrew her gaze, smiled crookedly, and also got on the carriage. Jokes aside, a few months ago, when she was chased by the jealous Yu Qingping, how could she have imagined that the Yu family would have such an ending waiting for them? In fact, Liang Ying was lucky to have come to her senses.

Looking at the bright moonlight, she too boarded the carriage – now that the dust had settled, she too was going to reunite with her family.
