"Back to Madam, we need to wait for the princess's family to arrive at the palace in a few days."

Lan Qingruo's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light.

She was still grounded at this time. After learning about this incident, the gloom in her heart was swept away and she felt much better.

At that time, she can use the Buddhist banquet to attack Shen Xinyue. This time, she will definitely ruin Shen Xinyue's reputation! She will also let Shen Xinyue die!

Lan Qingruo's face was gloomy. "Shen Xinyue, the Buddha's Banquet is the day you will die!"

Seeing this, the maid said: "Madam, we can't escape now, how should we start?"

"Give this to the old lady." Lan Qingruo gave all the Buddhist scriptures that he had copied over the past few days to the maid.

"This is?" The maid didn't know why.

Lan Qingruo didn't explain much and just asked the maid to give the things to the old lady. She had her own plan.

After the old lady saw the Buddhist scriptures sent by the maid, she understood Lan Qingruo's intention.

"Old madam, she is..." Mammy had a guess in her mind, but she did not explain it.

"Huh, Lan Qingruo is quite restless." The old lady snorted coldly and put the Buddhist scriptures away.

Lan Qingruo's maid was still kneeling at the door, waiting for the old lady's instructions.

The old lady waved her hand and motioned for her to let the maid in. She nodded and came to the door.

"The old lady wants you to come in."

After the maid came in, grandma closed the door.

"I've met the old lady." The maid saluted.

"What are Lan Qingruo's plans?"

The maid lowered her head and replied: "Back to the old lady, the old lady said that the old lady will understand it when she sees the Buddhist scriptures. The madam said that she has her own plan."

The old lady said nothing and looked at the maid.

The maid was so frightened by the old lady's eyes that she didn't dare to speak.

"Go back and tell Lan Qingruo to wait and get ready." The old lady raised her hand, and the nanny quickly supported her.

After the maid got the answer, she went back to find Lan Qingruo.

"Mommy, go and inform the princess in person that the confinement of the two ladies is coming soon. Let's take advantage of the Buddhist banquet to release them." The old lady's eyes flashed darkly. "You must do it well at this time."

"Yes, old lady." Mammy responded and hurried to find Huo Weilou and Shen Xinyue.

It was dinner time in the evening, so it was very inappropriate for Grandma Li to knock on the door.

Si Qi opened the door at Shen Xinyue's instruction. He was slightly startled when he saw the visitor, and then turned sideways to invite the guest in.

"I have met the prince and the princess." Nanny Li saluted the two of them.

Huo Weilou narrowed his eyes slightly and did not want to see Nanny Li. On the contrary, Shen Xinyue looked big-hearted and let Nanny Li approach the two of them.

"Mommy came here in the evening, but what's the matter?"

Grandma Li cleared her throat and said: "The old lady said that Mrs. Lan has been confined for some time. Let's take advantage of the Buddha's banquet to release Mrs. Lan."

Huo Weilou's face instantly darkened, "Mother Li, go back and tell her that it's impossible."

"Wait a minute." Shen Xinyue was very interested and interrupted Huo Weilou.

"You said that you want to release Lan Qingruo in advance? But if I remember correctly, Lan Qingruo will be haunted by evil spirits, which will endanger the palace. If she is released and endangers the palace, we will not be able to bear the consequences. Can you afford it? Is it up to grandma to take this responsibility, or is it the old lady?"

After Shen Xinyue's words, Grandma Li was shocked, sweat broke out on her forehead, and she stammered when speaking. "Princess, this...Mrs. Lan has been copying Buddhist scriptures for many days, and the evil spirits must have dissipated..."

Huo Weilou did not speak, but looked at Shen Xinyue intently. At this moment, he found that Shen Xinyue seemed to look better than before, and she had more of the princess's calmness.

"Is this what the old lady meant?" Shen Xinyue asked back.

Aunt Li hesitated. Naturally, the old lady didn't say that. Even evil spirits didn't exist at all.

Grandma Li said: "Princess, the old lady said that she wants to release Mrs. Lan, and you can also help entertain her at the Buddhist banquet."

Huo Weilou raised his eyes, a dark light flickering in his eyes: "Mommy, what if I don't want to let her out?"

"Your Majesty, but the Princess is already..." Nanny Li took two steps back.

Shen Xinyue held Huo Weilou's hand and nodded slightly towards him.

Feeling the soft touch on his fingertips, Huo Weilou calmed down and said nothing.

Shen Xinyue then said to Nanny Li: "Mommy, I will follow the old lady's arrangements for this matter. Please go back and reply to the old lady."

Nanny Li's anxious heart dropped, "Old slave, please retire."

Huo Weilou put a piece of ribs into Shen Xinyue's bowl.

"Why did you agree to let her out?"

Shen Xinyue had not yet swallowed the meat in her mouth. She waited until she had swallowed it before answering Huo Weilou's words.

"Obviously, this is the old lady's plan."

"First she took my mother and those sisters over, and then she wanted to release Lan Qingruo. Her intention of gathering everyone together was too obvious."

After Shen Xinyue finished speaking, she started eating the ribs that Huo Weilou gave her.

Huo Weilou saw Shen Xinyue eating like a hamster with her cheeks slightly bulging, and felt satisfied in his heart.

"Even so, as long as I'm here, I can protect you no matter what conspiracy they want to use." Huo Weilou sighed.

He is a dignified regent, one person is worth more than ten thousand people. It is really simple to protect Shen Xinyue. Even if he offends some people, he feels it is worth it.

"The old lady brought everyone together. This is what she wants to do. If I stop her today, she will also think of other ways to get Lan Qingruo out. Instead of letting her hate me, it is better to be a Just go with the flow."

"What's more, they are in the light now. If I stop them, Lan Qingruo will be in the dark, which is not good for me."

Shen Xinyue analyzed her thoughts to Huo Weilou.

When Huo Weilou saw this, he agreed. As long as he paid more attention, he could always protect Shen Xinyue. Since Shen Xinyue wanted to play with them, he would satisfy her.

When Nanny Li returned to the old lady, Huo Ziyao and the old lady had just finished eating.

"Old Madam." Nanny Li glanced at Huo Ziyao. After the old Madam nodded, she told them what had just happened at Huo Weilou and Shen Xinyue.

"The prince originally did not agree to release the wife, but the princess persuaded the prince and agreed to release the wife."

The old lady snorted coldly, slapped her palms on the table hard, and glared angrily: "This Huo Weilou! He still doesn't agree with my decision!"

"This Shen Xinyue is smart and knows how to follow my wishes. It's a pity that she can't please me by doing this!"

Huo Ziyao supported the old lady and patted her back gently. "Mother, don't be angry with my brother. My brother is just worried that the evil spirits have not been eliminated. It is for the future of the palace."

"Hmph, everything in the palace will be yours from now on! Zi Yao, you have to remember that once you have the chance, you must get rid of Huo Wei Tower!"

The old lady's eyes were sinister. She wished Huo Weilou would die now! He had been poisoned so many times, but this man could still save his life!

She shouldn't be soft-hearted and should increase the dose when poisoning, otherwise it won't be Huo Weilou's turn to be in charge of the Regent's Palace now!

Huo Ziyao lowered his eyes. It's not that he didn't know that his mother hated his brother, but he didn't understand that he was both born to his mother. Her mother favored him, but treated his brother harshly, and even wished for his death.

"Mom, since Qingruo can come out, I will go to the ancestral hall to pick her up and take her back to the house."

"Go ahead."

"My child, please leave." Huo Ziyao saluted and left the old lady's house.

At this moment, Huo Ziyao's heart and eyes were filled with Lan Qingruo, the woman he had loved for many years.

In the ancestral hall.

Lan Qingruo learned early from the maid that Huo Ziyao was coming to pick her up. She asked the maid to go back to the house and wait. She blew the evening breeze at the door, which made her cheeks and hands cold. Then she knelt in the ancestral hall and did

Showing the appearance of praying and chanting sutras.

When Huo Ziyao came, he saw such a scene and felt heartbroken.

"Qingruo, I'm here to pick you up."

Huo Ziyao strode forward and put his arms around Lan Qingruo's slender waist.

"You've lost weight, Qingruo." Huo Ziyao's eyes were full of worry for Lan Qingruo.

His big hand touched Lan Qingruo's face, and the cold touch made his heart hurt suddenly. When he held Lan Qingruo's Rouyi again, it was still cold, without a trace of warmth.

"Ziyao... cough cough." As soon as Lan Qingruo said two words, she pretended to cough.

She narrowed her eyes and hid her emotions in her eyes.

Lan Qingruo knew very well in her heart that Huo Ziyao really loved her. But there was no Huo Ziyao or Huo Weilou in her heart. She only had herself in her heart.

"Qingruo, are you being bullied? Did those servants see that you were confined in the ancestral hall and even deprived you of food and drink? I will teach them a lesson for you!" Huo Ziyao picked up Lan Qingruo and said,

Go to his yard.

Lan Qingruo huddled in Huo Ziyao's arms and complained softly: "Ziyao, I have no one to talk to here. It's really cold and dark in the ancestral hall at night... I'm really scared..."

"I eat very little here every day, only some porridge and vegetables. When I have nothing to do, I chant and pray for you and the old lady, and copy Buddhist scriptures."

"Ziyao, during these days in the ancestral hall, I have understood my own feelings. I will be your wife well in the future and treat you wholeheartedly."
