"This is a family matter of the prime minister's house. It is not for me to interfere." Ximen Yi said, and then his eyes flashed across Su Ranhua's face, "I am only here to help Mr. Su track down the assassin who killed the eldest lady."
Su Ranhua ignored Ximen Yi's slightly warning gaze at all. Instead, she was somewhat interested in the attendant's words. She knew that the eldest lady's father was a court veteran who had retired for many years, and her brothers all held important positions. They were interested in Su Ranhua's words.
It is very advantageous for Luocheng to control the government. This is why Suluocheng still holds the position of eldest lady and is in charge of the internal affairs of the prime minister's house even though the eldest lady has not given birth to a child for him.
Therefore, Suluo City had to give an explanation for the death of the eldest lady. Even if she was killed by an assassin, she still had to find the real culprit behind the scenes.
Su Ranhua originally wanted to see how Su Luocheng would appease the eldest lady's family, but when he thought of the chaotic scene, he gave up the idea and turned back to the side courtyard without saying a word.
Su Ranqing stared at Ximen Yi closely, fearing that he would also turn around and leave.
Ximen Yi glanced at Su Ranqing and saw her frightened look. He smiled slightly, hooked her shoulders, and gently pulled her closer into his arms.
Su Ranqing felt Ximen Yi's tenderness all over her body, and her panic instantly collapsed.
Ximen Yi is like this, as long as he smiles at Su Ranqing and moves his hands and feet in a charming and ambiguous manner, Su Ranqing can fall into the mist and forget about the unpleasantness that happened.
Feeling that Su Ranqing's body softened, Ximen Yi's eyes flashed and he led her gently towards the other side.
Although this woman is stupid, she is easy to coax and can be captured with just one movement. Ximen Yi cannot abandon her completely at this time. He has to endure his own temptation for the unknown trump card in Su Luo City's hands.
disgust.
Su Ranhua can loudly say that he hates him without any scruples, but he cannot say a word of disgust loudly towards Su Ranqing. Is he just like Su Ranqing in his own eyes? Although he has a reputation praised by the world
, but as long as you hate it, it becomes worthless.
Thinking of this, Ximen Yi's eyes gradually darkened, and his handsome and coquettish face was stained with a lingering desire to devour everything.
About an hour later, Xiaocui went to the front yard to inquire about the news. The eldest lady's family members had dispersed. Su Ranhua saw that it was getting late and decided to leave.
As soon as she went out, she saw the second lady coming with two maids. When she saw Su Ranhua, she smiled brightly and said, "Ranhua, from now on these two girls will serve your mother exclusively. They have all served me before.
Flexible and hard-working.”
"Then I'll thank Er Niang." Su Ran said with a crooked smile.
Even if she is hypocritical, she will also act in an exaggerated way.
"No need, I'm used to living alone." The third lady stood up and waved her hands gently.
"Sister, you are weak and how can you do it without a satisfactory person around you? Now I am in charge of the prime minister's house for the eldest lady. If you need anything, just come to me." The second lady smiled and walked towards the third lady and held her affectionately.
hand.
"Thank you, sister." The third lady gently withdrew her hand. Seeing the second lady treating her like this made her feel very uncomfortable.
The second lady's hands were empty, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Mom, it's rare that my second mother is interested. I'll be relieved if you stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion from now on." Su Ranhua walked back to the third lady and said with a smile.
The Third Madam could guess that the Second Madam’s treatment of her must have something to do with her daughter, but she didn’t know how her daughter managed to tame this unruly Second Madam?
Seeing the third lady looking at him with complicated eyes, Su Ranhua smiled slightly and said, "Mom, it's getting late, I really should go."
"Well, let's go." The third lady said nothing more and nodded gently.
Nowadays, Su Ranhua would not go through the small door specially opened for the side courtyard, and would lead Xiao Cui and Liu Er through the front courtyard in a swaggering manner, entering and exiting through the main entrance of the palace.
Ximen Yi and Su Ranqing were not found, so they must have left, but Su Luocheng seemed to have just come out of the mourning hall of the eldest lady, and seemed to be going out.
Su Ranhua looked around. The Prime Minister's Mansion was already surrounded by white, which looked even more desolate. At this time, Su Luocheng had just returned from the palace. He was injured, so what was he going to do?
Su Luocheng saw Su Ranhua and stood there, looking at Su Ranhua's eyes.
It's strange that Su Ranhua didn't notice the lightning in Su Luocheng's eyes, or the viciousness of hatred for himself. Even the scheming and cunning flavor that had persisted for thousands of years was much weaker.
.
"What are you doing back here?" Su Luocheng asked coldly. The accidental death of the eldest lady was unexpected, and Su Ranhua returned home not early or late when the eldest lady died. No matter how you think about it, you don't think it is a coincidence.
"Of course I came to see my mother, Mr. Su." Su Ranhua chuckled lightly, looking up and down Su Luocheng without any trace, "I heard that Mr. Su contacted Jiangnan Wulin to seek medical advice for my mother? Yes.
With Mr. Su's love, my mother will definitely live a good life, right?"
Although Su Luocheng shamelessly told Ximen Xianchu this ridiculous excuse because the third lady did not die of a drug-free disease in the side courtyard, he found a reason to protect the third lady. For what he once said
If so, he must let the third lady live safely to show his intentions.
"You don't have to worry about the prime minister's affairs," Su Luocheng said with a cold face.
Su Ranhua glanced at Su Luocheng for the last time, turned around and walked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After seeing Su Luocheng leaving and hurriedly walking towards the other side, Su Ranhua turned around and said to Xiaocui and Liu'er who were following him, "You two go back to the North Palace first. I want to walk alone."
"Princess, it's getting late." Liu'er looked at the sky hesitantly. The days in early winter were getting shorter and shorter, and it would be dark soon.
"Are you afraid of being punished like last time?" Su Ranhua glanced at Liu'er.
Liu Er lowered her head silently. Rather than saying she was afraid of being punished, she wanted to know what Su Ranhua was going to do alone. Compared to being punished, knowing Su Ranhua's whereabouts was more important.
"You go back first. If anyone asks, just tell me that I went to find Su Luo City." Su Ranhua said straightforwardly, "There are some things I want to resolve with him alone."
"Miss?" Now it was Xiaocui's turn to worry.
"Go back quickly!" Su Ran's face flashed, and his resolute tone sounded like an order that could not be disobeyed.
Su Ranhua ignored the two of them and quickly walked in the direction of Su Luo City to catch up.
She always felt that something was wrong with the Su Luo City she saw today. Although the tone he spoke to her was unkind and cold with disgust, this was not the Su Luo City she had in mind. Su Luo City should not just treat her like this.
The indifference was enough. To be precise, Su Luo City didn't show enough strength towards her.
