Chapter 253: Things from the Twelve Defenders
The servant returned to Lu''s house in a dilemma and reported to Lu Xingzhou.
Manager Zhao is also here.
This person is his nephew. He is quite clever and deliberately handed over such an important task to him.
"So fast?"
Manager Zhao was surprised.
You Ping was so distressed that he said, "I didn''t go to the princess''s mansion at all. The servant in the princess''s mansion was so domineering. He said that I belong to the Lu family and quickly drove me away, saying that our Lu family is not qualified to give gifts to the princess."
Manager Zhao looked at Lu Xingzhou awkwardly.
The old master of the Lu family at least had the merit of following the dragon. During the funeral, the Supreme Emperor came to pay his respects to the door and burned incense with the gift of his younger generation.
Princess Wanping''s move is too disrespectful to the Lu family.
Lu Xingzhou''s expression did not change much, and it was still unpredictable: "But you mention the old lady?"
Youping said aggrievedly: "I mentioned it, that boy said, the old lady is no longer from the Lu family, so I will get out of here!"
"This..." Manager Zhao choked and said to Lu Xingzhou, "Uncle, what are they saying?"
Lu Xingzhou didn''t care whether Princess Wanping looked down on the Lu family. He just wanted to know whether Princess Wanping had met after Lin Wan''er''s master and servant escaped last night.
Princess Wanping has a high reputation among the people. She helps the strong and helps the weak and helps the people. When encountering unfair things, she will most likely not stand by.
Naturally, those good deeds may be for the people to see, and the superiors are the best at this.
Manager Zhao winked You Ping, and You Ping retreated tactfully.
Manager Zhao said, "Uncle, from the perspective of the young master, Lin Wan''er and Luluo probably ran away by themselves and did not meet Princess Wanping. Otherwise, it would be impossible that there would be no movement until now."
Lin Wan''er''s ability to run out of the Lu family means that she found Lu Xingzhou and wanted to kill her.
But even if she says these words, will anyone really believe them?
She was an outdoor room that leaned against her belly and had long been unbearable in the capital.
Princess Wanping is the legitimate originator of the central palace and hates such a kind-hearted woman the most. How could she be so kind to take in Lin Wan''er?
Seeing that Lu Xingzhou didn''t say anything, Manager Zhao said embarrassedly: "Uncle, if you are really worried, why don''t you go to the princess''s mansion in person?"
“No need.”
I''m afraid that what the Lu family did once disliked her, and even if he went, he wouldn''t see her.
Since Princess Wanping doesn''t like the Lu family, she should not care about the Lu family''s back home.
Lin Wan''er might really just escape by herself.
"You continue to send someone to secretly search for the whereabouts of the two of them. A mother who is about to give birth should not be that difficult to find."
Unless...she leaves the capital.
I am not afraid of her dying outside, but I am afraid of her talking nonsense outside.
“Yes, uncle!”
Manager Zhao hurried to make arrangements.
Lu Xingzhou went to Lu’s mother’s yard.
Lu''s mother was sitting in the room pruning the branches.
She loved to arrange flowers when she was free, and she had never changed for many years.
Lu''s mother seemed to have not heard the footsteps of Lu Xingzhou, and she was busy with herself.
Lu Xingzhou said, "You go to the Governor''s Office and take your grandmother back."
Lu''s mother cut a leaf and said lightly: "It''s not that I haven''t taken it, my grandmother doesn''t want to go back to the Lu family. If the uncle is willing, it''s better to pick it up by himself."
Lu Xingzhou looked at Lu''s mother deeply: "Did you help Lin Wan''er escape last night?"
Why is it so coincidental that there are ladders in both walls.
Lu''s mother continued to trim the flower branches: "I don''t understand what the uncle is saying."

It was already afternoon when Meng Qianqian woke up. Curtains were pulled into the room, and the light was dim, and occasionally one or two bright light threads slipped into the gap.
In the yard was Baoshu''s giggling giggling, Liu Qingyun was catching her, she hid happily.
Lu Yuan is not here.
Hey, doesn’t he need to make up for his sleep?
Meng Qianqian stretched lazily: "Banxia."
Madam Li pushed the door open and entered: "Miss is awake? Banxia is watering the newly planted peony of her wife outside."
Meng Qianqian rubbed her eyes: "Madam, when is it time?"
"I''ve slept for so long, why did I go back to the yard?"
She remembered that she was talking to Lu Yuan about the Twelve Guards in the carriage, and she had no idea when she fell asleep.
Madam Li cleared her throat: "Miss is sleeping heavily. It was the son-in-law who carried the young lady back to the yard. It''s really hard for the son-in-law."
Meng Qianqian: Madam Li, you have been a little completely rebellious. Did my mother-in-law give too much?
Madam Li handed Meng Qianqian the clothes she had prepared long ago: "Miss, what happened to the princess''s mansion last night? Why did she go all night? She woke her up. What medicine should I take?"
Liu Qingyun hates others quarrel at her sleep the most, but after being woken up last night, Liu Qingyun was not angry and asked Yu Zichuan to send medicine in person.
The calmer the wife, the bigger the matter.
Meng Qianqian talked about Lin Wan''er, and naturally, she saved the part of the twelve guards.
Madam Li was so shocked that she couldn''t help but exaggerate.
She didn''t expect Lin Wan''er to pretend, and she didn''t expect Lu Xingzhou to want Lin Wan''er''s life.
The tiger is poisonous and doesn’t even eat her. No matter how bad Lin Wan’er is still pregnant with her son’s flesh and blood.
Madam Li was simply creepy.
As for the fake Lin Wan''er, although Madam Li has been waiting for her retribution, she has not hoped that she will die.
"I''m sorry for that child."
Madam Li sighed.
Nothing said afterwards.
Everyone has their own fate. There are too many unfair things in the world. I just hope that the child will not bear the sins of the previous generation.
Meng Qianqian looked around and asked, "Where is your husband?"
Madam Li fed hot water: "Your Majesty has passed today. My son-in-law just sent His Majesty away. Now he is in the study."
Meng Qianqian washed her face and asked, "What are you doing in your house?"
Madam Li said, "It seems that she is playing Ye Zi Card with the old lady and King Miao, and the wife is also there."
Meng Qianqian''s mouth twitched, three cheaters, didn''t they really make Zong Zhengxi lose all her shorts?
"First eat some snacks to keep your stomach full. I''ll go and let the kitchen cook two dishes."
"Um."
Meng Qianqian took half a plate of osmanthus cake and half a plate of fried fruit to the study.
Lu Yuan was fiddling with a strange little box.
Meng Qianqian put the plate on the table: "Governor, what is this?"
Lu Yuan said: "What Yu Zichuan dug back from the Lu family."
"Is it what Haizhu asked Lin Wan''er to wait?" Meng Qianqian blinked, "Has it opened?"
Lu Yuan said lightly: "After all, it''s the twelve guards, so it''s better to wait for you to drive it."
"Then I''m welcome."
Meng Qianqian put down the osmanthus cake that she had taken a bite and reached out to open the box.
"I''ll do it." Lu Yuan suddenly blocked her hand, "You stand farther and just look there."
Meng Qianqian said oh and retreated obediently.
The box is locked, not an ordinary copper lock, but a hidden poem lock, unlocked by turning the text on the copper hoop.
There are four copper rings in total, and each copper ring has six... patterns?
Meng Qianqian opened her eyes wide: "What are these? Why don''t I recognize them?"
“It’s Sanskrit.”
Lu Yuan''s time of speaking had already unlocked the lock.
"Do you still know Sanskrit?" Meng Qianqian''s admiration for Lu Yuan was even more overwhelmed.
She walked over and looked closely, "Hey, the box is empty!"
Happy National Day
