Chapter 7

Back at Xiaofeng Courtyard, Lu Songli was curious about what the rumors were going on and why Zhao Yutan was forced to commit suicide? Then she asked Mo Bing to send someone out to inquire.

In Chang'an City, as Lu Songli expected, everyone was discussing what happened last night.

"Have you heard? Two noble ladies fell into the lake during the flower-viewing banquet at Prince Gong's Mansion."

"Who are they?"

"The eldest daughter of Mr. Zhao, the minister of Honglu Temple, and the youngest daughter of Dr. Lu, the censor."

"Is that person okay?"

"The person is fine and was rescued."

"That's good, that's good."

"But you would never imagine that the person who saved them was each other's fiancé."

"ah?"

"I also know about this. I heard that in the water, the two noble ladies hugged the man who came to rescue tightly, and their bodies were tightly entangled." The more the man spoke, the more ambiguous his tone became.

"Ah? How to deal with it?"

"You can't blame them, right? After all, you don't know how to swim. When life and death are at stake, you can't subconsciously care so much."

"Yes, I don't think we can blame them. When their fiancés went into the water to save people, they didn't recognize them. They were the ones who saved the wrong person."

"Having said that, if you are their fiancé, every time you see the other person, you will think of your fiancée being hugged and hugged by the other person, wouldn't you feel knotty in your heart? Just like you Li Si, your wife was hugged by Zhang San before getting married.

Hug, after you got married, you often saw Zhang San hanging in front of you, what do you think?"

"But you can't break off the engagement because of this, right? It's not that bad."

Someone smacked his lips and said in a vulgar way, "Hey, why didn't I encounter such a good thing? If I were here, I would definitely go into the water to save people."

The people onlookers glanced at him contemptuously, as if to say, you are thinking shit.

Someone lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "I'm afraid the bride and groom will have to change these two marriages."

"It's not a bad idea."

"If this is really decided, this little girl of the Lu family will be in big trouble. She will fall into trouble and lose her good fiancé."

"I've also heard that there's a hidden secret here. It seems that Miss Zhao tampered with her and the two of them fell into the water and were rescued by the wrong person. And when they were rescued, she was still pretending to be unconscious."

"Ah, is the truth actually like this? Then what is Miss Zhao trying to do?"

"What are you picturing? I'm picturing my fiancé."

What happened that night quickly spread among the people of Chang'an City, and there were various speculations. Historically, this kind of rosy gossip topic was the most talked about, not to mention that the protagonists in the story were all noble sons of Chang'an City.

Female, and someone was secretly fueling the situation, this topic became more and more outrageous and unpalatable. Why did the two noble ladies reveal a large piece of snow-white skin in the water? When the noble ladies entangled them, the husbands all got up.

Reaction, unstable breathing, etc. When the two parties hugged each other, they used the cover of the lake to do this and that.

After hearing the news, Lu Songli knew that there was indeed someone behind the rumors in Chang'an City. There was no need to guess, it was definitely the Zhao family. In addition, she felt that Mr. Lu should have also taken action.

Judging from the dirty water in these rumors, you can guess that most of them are poured on Zhao Yutan. Mr. Lu is worthy of being a public speaker and the leader in shaping public opinion, and he is sensitive to this aspect. Tsk tsk, this Zhao Yutan is really miserable, hurting the enemy eight hundred times, and himself

Loss of one thousand and two. I'm afraid she will faint in the toilet from crying.

Lu Songli's guess was correct. Zhao Yutan was crying so hard that he couldn't breathe. A scar on his neck was covered with a scarf. The boudoir was in a mess, and the maids were sent outside.

There were only two people left in the house, Zhao Yutan and her mother Luo Shi.

Luo Shi: "Stop crying. Crying carefully will hurt your body."

Zhao Yutan's head was still buried in the quilt, "Mom, how could this happen?" Wow, she was so angry. She just wanted to use the fact that she fell into the water to save the wrong person and use public opinion to marry Zhan Lang quickly. She didn't expect the rumors to talk about her like this.

Unbearable.

"Oh, it was a miscalculation. Your father said that he found another group of people fishing in troubled waters and took the opportunity to cause trouble, so the rumors turned on your side..." After her daughter was tainted to this point, Luo was shocked, angry, and worried.

Zhao Yutan raised his head, his eyelashes were wet with tears and his eyes were red and swollen, "Is it the Lu family?"

"Well, the Lu family reacted too quickly. I'm afraid they were already prepared." Luo Shi wanted to sigh when he mentioned this. Lu Desheng was indeed a veteran in this field, and he was so experienced in dealing with it. In fact, it wasn't just the Lu family, but also the Zhao family who couldn't deal with them.

The opponent also took action.

Zhao Yutan was extremely sad. From the moment she decided to drag Lu Songli into the water, she thought things would go smoothly, everything would be resolved quickly, and she would be able to marry Xie Zhan smoothly.

She is still very confident about this plan.

First of all, she had two precognitive dreams. In the first dream, after she married into the Qin family, the Qin family would be punished and exiled soon. In the second precognitive dream, she really married Xie Lang, only

But in the dream, they were quite old.

In the dream, she didn't know why the Qin family and she were able to return to Chang'an. But she felt that it was probably because of the emperor's grace that the Qin family was pardoned.

These two precognitive dreams were the reason why she decided to take action. She knew that the road ahead would be difficult, but she did not want to suffer needlessly. In addition, through the second precognitive dream, she was convinced that she was Xie Zhan and Xie Lang's true destiny.

Goddess.

The reason why she was so confident about her plan was that she learned from her dream that Lu Songli's constitution was cold and unfavorable for heirs. Lu Songli's health had never been very good, and the Lu family only said that Lu Songli had a slight illness.

Because of her heart disease, she hid the news that she was extremely cold. In fact, it was difficult for her to get pregnant. The Xie family knew this well.

She didn't think the Xie family would be satisfied with such a daughter-in-law. What the Xie family lacked was just a clear and upright reason to break off the engagement. It wasn't enough for Lu Songli's reputation to be stained. It also required that the Xie family be able to dissolve the relationship without any stain on it.

If there was such an opportunity to marry the Lu family, she believed that the Xie family would be willing.

In the dream, Zhan Lang felt empty at his knees. Can you imagine that? The powerful head of the Xie family didn't even have a drop of blood under his knees. She felt sorry for this man.

What she did was create such an opportunity for the Xie family.

Through the fact that they both fell into the water that night but were rescued by each other's fiancé, they manipulated public opinion and smeared her and Lu Songli's reputations. She herself used some cruel tricks to make the Xie family responsible, and everything would fall into place as she wished.

The matter of temporarily tarnishing her reputation was easy to solve. Besides, Lu Songli was with her, so she was not afraid.

It's just that they never expected that the Lu family had been on guard and threw most of the dirty water that should have been thrown equally at both of them at her. Now her reputation is much worse than Lu Songli. What does the Xie family think of her?

Also, how come Lu Songli didn't faint last night? If she had fainted, without the things she did and said later, public opinion wouldn't be able to speak so badly of her. Moreover, last night she...

My son was suspicious of her. It seemed that he didn’t regard her as a sister, a best friend, or a good friend at all! She was deceived by her!

"Hey, don't cry, we will help you. You have to believe that all the difficulties now are only temporary, and the result will definitely be beautiful." Luo touched her daughter's head and comforted her. Her husband said that recently he gave his daughter

She went to Master Nanyin for comment, and Master Nanyin said that her daughter was favored by nature and that she was a person of great fortune. With such comments, she believed that her daughter would be able to turn misfortunes into good fortune and turn adversities into good fortune.

Zhao Yutan sniffed and reluctantly pulled the corners of her lips to smile. Of course she knew that her family would do their best to help her.

Because she had told her father about her adventure a few days ago. When she had her first prophetic dream, the divorce was only three or four months away. She was so panicked at the time that she couldn't think of a way to break the situation. She thought

He broke off his engagement with the Qin family and wanted to marry Xie Zhan, but these were not easy to achieve.

Time is tight and the task is heavy. In order to achieve her wish, she must get help from her family! Her father, Zhao Wenkuan, is the minister of Honglu Temple and is currently the patriarch of the entire Zhao family, with a strong say.

In order to gain her father's support, Zhao Yutan told her father about her first precognitive dream. Her father was dubious at first. He believed it, it was a bit absurd, but he didn't believe it. He was also afraid that if it was true, the Zhao family would be implicated by the Qin family.

In order to win her father's trust, she finally told her father two secrets from the Xie family and the Qin family respectively. These two secrets, whether in the Qin family or the Xie family, were extremely important secrets and could only be known to the core members of the family.

, unknown to outsiders. Recently, the Zhao family is investigating these two secrets. When she decided to implement the drowning plan, they did not know about it in advance. In fact, this plan was also something she thought of on the spur of the moment, catching everyone off guard. Her father also

I think this strategy is very good, but it is too hasty.

Zhao Yutan bit her lip and made a decision in her heart, "Mom, I want to see Ah Li."

"Okay, mother will arrange it."

"ASAP."
