Chapter 240 Who knows which will come first, the accident or tomorrow
No matter how annoyed Lu Xinran was with Zhao in the past, she would always complain in her heart. This was the first time she spoke her true feelings so bluntly.
I have experienced life and death at the border, and I have become indifferent to many things, but I am unwilling to put myself in a difficult position again.
She gave Zhao a cold look without any courtesy: "If you think that I am the one who is keeping her in Hanyu Pass, then you should go and bring her back in person, and confess to the Queen that your baby cannot endure hardship.
“As a queen, you can do without fame, but you cannot do without your precious daughter.
"You'd better make it known to everyone. She stayed at the border not because she cared about the queen or because she was kind-hearted. Someone was trying to keep her there."
Lu Xinran's words carried a murderous aura that she didn't even notice, and Zhao, who was about to throw a tantrum, instantly lost her temper.
She just glared at her hatefully, but unfortunately after Lu Xinran finished saying this he turned around and didn't bother to pay attention to her.
[I'm really afraid of being infected by talking to idiots. 】
[If I see her again, I will feel like I am going to have a stupid attack. ]
The other people in the room all lowered their heads and laughed secretly. Even Mrs. Pei felt that her granddaughter's words were very satisfying.
This Zhao, ah, she doesn’t even know whether it was right or wrong for her to marry this guy against everyone’s opinion in order to take care of her best friend’s daughter.
After going through so much, how come this daughter-in-law hasn't made any progress at all?
No one paid any attention to Zhao anymore, and everyone waved to Lu Xinran to sit next to them.
Lu Xinran paid his respects to Pei, then sat down beside her and talked about his experiences in Hanyu Pass during this period.
After hearing that the war was so intense and even the queen was injured, Zhao could no longer sit still. She stood up and left quickly, ignoring Pei's warning look.
Pei sighed, "Don't blame her, she, ah..."
I'm afraid I can't turn this corner.
Lu Xinran obviously didn't want to talk more about Zhao. She didn't lack the mother-daughter relationship, nor did she think about getting anything from Zhao.
If she gives it to me, I will accept it with peace of mind, and if she doesn’t give it to me, it doesn’t matter.
Just because she fails to fulfill her responsibilities as a biological mother, don't blame her for not giving due respect.
After a trip to the border, she is now very skilled at letting herself go.
Who knows which will come first, an accident or tomorrow? Instead of putting yourself in a difficult position, it is better to criticize others.
Hearing her inner voice, Pei immediately changed the words that were about to come out of her mouth to: "You have suffered in Hanyu Pass."
"It's not hard," Lu Xinran replied seriously, "My sister and I have a guard. We stay in the general's mansion every day. The queen doesn't stop us from doing anything we want. Compared with the people in the city, we really don't suffer at all."
The more she said this, the more distressed Pei felt.
"Xinlan, that child..."
"Grandmother, we both think it's more interesting to stay at the border than to return to the capital. My sister was taken away by the Queen Mother, unlike me, so she can continue to stay there. I can only come back with the prince."
Knowing what Pei wanted to know, Lu Xinran told the two sisters the truth about their true thoughts.
As for what Pei or Zhao would be thinking later, it was not something she needed to worry about.
She even envied Lu Xinlan for not having to come back. What was so good about the capital city?
Pei listened to her thoughts and felt a little dazed.
What's wrong with the capital city?
Let these two sisters despise it so much!
After listening to her brief account of what happened in Hanyu Pass, Pei asked her to go back to her room to rest.
You must be exhausted after traveling for so many days. Since it's nothing serious, there's time to talk about other things later.
After Lu Xinran left, Kong looked at her mother-in-law with some concern.
"Mother, my sister-in-law is afraid that she will do something stupid."
"Don't worry, she wouldn't dare. If she still cares about Xinlan, she won't act rashly."
If she was really stupid enough to try to find the border, her mother-in-law would not let her do that.
"But……"
Kong was still worried. Zhao was always prone to making mistakes. Since she was the eldest sister-in-law, she couldn't say much. But if Zhao affected the reputation of the girls in the Lu family, what would happen to her two daughters?
Seeing her worry, Pei said soothingly: "I'll call her over later and talk to her in detail."
If he doesn't listen, he will be placed under house arrest until Lu Xinlan returns to Beijing.
As soon as Lu Xinran came back, she collapsed on the couch. Cuizhu had received news that her master was coming back early in the morning, and hot water was already prepared in the room. Seeing her collapsed on the couch, she hurried over to help her change clothes and take a bath.
Sitting in the bathtub, the warm water made her close her eyes comfortably.
She was used to being inseparable from Lu Xinlan, and she was still a little uncomfortable when she was not in the capital.
She had been away for more than a month, and she wanted to find Zhang Shuier to find out what had happened in the capital during this time.
There is also the matter of her wedding with Song Junyan. Both of them were not present, and it is not known whether the Imperial Observatory and the Ministry of Rites have set a date for the wedding.
Then there was the marriage of the third prince Song Junhua. If she remembered correctly, it was originally scheduled for the end of March.
Later, because of the death of Concubine Hua, his wedding date was moved to two years later.
So, since my brother hasn't gotten married yet, does Song Junyan have to wait until he gets married before setting the wedding date?
Without Lu Xinlan by her side to help her remember these things, she had to rely on herself for everything.
After eating something quickly, she felt sleepy and fell on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
Ever since Lu Jinchuan learned that Prince Wei had returned to the capital, he has always wanted to return home earlier to find out what was happening at the border through his heart.
The more anxious he was, the more things there were to do. A few old guys seemed to be deliberately finding things to do to drag him along. When he returned to the mansion, he learned from the servants that Lu Xinran went to bed not long after returning to his room.
Unable to learn her specific personality from her, he had no choice but to shamelessly come to find Pei.
Pei originally didn't want to pay attention to him, but thinking of Lu Xinlan who was still in Hanyu Pass, she hurriedly repeated what Lu Xinlan had said, but she didn't show any good expression when she said it.
"What a coincidence?"
Lu Jinchuan subconsciously became suspicious. Although he had never seen Xie Lang, he had heard people mention him. Among the generals guarding the border, he was the most unruly.
Can such a person really act in a thorough manner and always consider defending the city?
"Why, you don't believe it? If you don't believe it, why are you asking?"
Pei rolled her eyes and was about to chase them away.
Lu Jinchuan quickly smiled and apologized: "I just feel that there might be something fishy going on. You also said that Xinlan is still over there. We should know more about the inside story so that we can be safe."
Pei rolled her eyes in disdain: "Since Xinran said so, it means that this is the truth. She has no need to lie to me."
Moreover, the news was reported to the palace as soon as he entered the city, and the emperor must have heard the same story.
The Queen is still at the border, and there must be some Dragon Scale Guards sent by the Emperor hiding in the dark.
So this should be the truth.
Lu Jinchuan twirled his beard, thought for a moment, and then stopped worrying about whether it was true or not.
"Xinlan girl, find a way to get her back. Lord Tang, the Junior Official of the Dali Temple, wants to marry us. It would be a blessing for that girl to marry into the Tang family."
