After being reborn in the Mass Grave, she overturned her predecessor's power
Chapter 278 Illegitimate birth
Lu Lin's funeral was held three days later. The Lu family's public statement was that he died suddenly of illness.
It was common knowledge that he was a sickly person, so no one was surprised by this.
Jiang Xue Ning was also very polite and went to the funeral. She wore a white dress to the Lu family.
People were coming and going in front of the Lu family's door. When I entered the mourning hall, I saw Ji Ying, who was pale and shaky, standing aside.
It seems that his life was saved.
Jiang Xuening lit a stick of incense, walked up to her and whispered, "Madam, please accept my condolences."
She bowed her head sadly and half-knelt to return the greeting.
After confirming that everyone was fine, Jiang Xue Ning did her superficial work and didn't stay for long, and was about to leave with her people.
As soon as I stepped out of the mourning hall, I heard a commotion in the yard, and a tall and mighty man rushed in aggressively.
"I'm here to attend my fourth uncle's funeral. Why can't you let me in?"
"Someone is trespassing into the funeral hall! Stop him now!"
The Lu family's guards chased in, and people from both sides started fighting immediately.
She was standing right in the middle of the doorway, making it easy for her to be accidentally injured. Wu Sa, who was standing beside her, drew his sword and killed the two people who were fighting without blinking an eye.
The two of them calmly took a step aside, and the tall man glanced at her and said, "Excuse me."
She said calmly, "Nothing."
Just as the chaos was going on, Madam Lu came over and said with a bad look on her face, "Stop it!"
The man showed a murderous smile, "How come no one informed me of such a big thing as the death of my fourth uncle?"
Mrs. Lu was so angry that her chest hurt. She didn't want to argue with him in the mourning hall, "Come in with me."
The man stood still and said with a bad look, "You don't think you can still cover the sky with one hand.
Humph, they used some trickery to take my mother and me to the bitter cold land of Cangnan, which is full of desperate criminals and vicious fugitives. It's a pity that I came back alive!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the guests who came to the funeral stopped in their tracks, thinking that something interesting was about to happen.
Madam Lu could no longer maintain her dignity as the head of the family, and her voice suddenly rose, "What nonsense are you talking about? You are just distant relatives. The Lu family provides you with food and clothing, and we have never let you down!"
The man stepped forward and asked, "Just a distant relative?"
A woman in white walked in. She had a quiet temperament and a slender figure. Her face was beautiful, but a few fine lines at the corners of her eyes betrayed her age.
The woman spoke in a roundabout way, "Cousin, I know you are angry about my affair with my cousin. But my cousin and I are in love with each other, and the child is innocent."
"You can hate me and dislike me, but Yuan'er is the blood of the Lu family, you can't deny him!"
Madam Lu said sternly, "Ning Lan, you are greedy for the Lu family's wealth and glory, but you shouldn't be so close to them. Ning Yuan is obviously your child with another wild man..."
As the commotion was going on, Lu Zhen, the current head of the Lu family, finally showed up.
Ning Lan's tears flowed before she spoke, and she looked at him lovingly with red eyes, "Cousin, Lan'er is back."
Lu Zhen glanced at her and said solemnly, "Cousin, if you have anything to say, go back to the backyard and tell me."
Ning Lan is not a pushover at all. She chose this moment to make a scene just because she wants an identity.
She pulled Ning Yuan aside and said with a smile in her tears, "Cousin Yuaner did not embarrass you. Although Cangnan is poor, he married the daughter of the old city lord of Cangnan. Now she is the new city lord, and they also gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl!"
As soon as these words came out, the yard suddenly became quiet. Mrs. Lu swayed and almost fainted.
Although Cangnan is poor, it is a large area. Moreover, the people and soldiers of Cangnan are well-known for their ability to fight, and they can defeat ten enemies with one. It is just too poor, so it has never developed and grown, but it does not mean that it has no value.
Sure enough, Lu Zhen looked better after hearing this and said gently, "You have been running all the way, go back to the backyard to rest first, and we will discuss other matters later."
"Hey." Ning Lan responded sympathetically, "I knew you were the best, cousin."
The storm was settled just like that, and when Jiang Xue Ning left, she looked unhappy.
In less than half a day, what happened in the Lu family's mourning hall spread throughout the family.
Jiang Li leaned against the window of the study and said, "This is really not good news. If Ning Yuan is recognized as a child of the Lu family, the power of the Lu family will be further expanded."
Jiang Xue Ning chuckled, "Lu Zhen has always been ambitious. His beloved cousin gave birth to such a good son, he will definitely recognize him."
Once they admit it, with Cangnan in Ning Yuan's hands, the power of the Lu family will be further expanded, and it will be more difficult for them to deal with the Lu family.
Jiang Li sighed, "Besides, Cheng Yuan is also a member of the Lu family."
"We'll see."
Lu Chengyuan came back in the middle of the night. Seeing that the light was still on in the study, he walked in directly.
"I knew you were waiting for me."
Seeing that he looked exhausted, Jiang Xue Ning handed him a cup of tea and asked, "What was the result?"
He smiled bitterly, "Neither side is easy to deal with. Unfortunately, the thing in Ning Lan's hand is more valuable this time, so he chose to accept it in the end."
No one knows what kind of person Lu Zhen is better than him. He has always been profit-driven.
The result was as expected. Jiang Xue Ning took a sip of tea and said slowly, "For now, it seems that Ning Lan and her son have won. It is uncertain what will happen next. Madam Lu will not just swallow this anger."
The most important thing is that Ning Yuan’s return will definitely affect the interests of her children, which is an irreconcilable contradiction.
Lu Chengyuan said hesitantly, "Although she is strong, she cannot influence Lu Zhen's decision."
"That's hard to say." Jiang Xue Ning smiled lightly, "If you underestimate a woman, especially a woman from the back house, you will suffer."
When women become ruthless, they are no weaker than men.
Lu Chengyuan just felt tired. "No matter how they fight, it's none of my business anyway."
But because of his special status and great influence, it is difficult for him not to be involved. For example, Mrs. Lu likes to use Aunt Mo to control him, and Lu Zhen has disliked him for a long time because he did not support the Lu family before.
Jiang Xue Ning certainly understood how tired he was, and was very grateful that he had not let the power of Xiangchu fall into the hands of others under such heavy pressure over the years.
She suggested, "Have you ever thought about taking your aunt away from the Lu family for a while and getting rid of the Lu family completely?"
Lu Chengyuan lowered his head and thought for a while, "Where to go?"
It was better to leave. Out of sight, out of mind. Whatever happened to the Lu family in the end had nothing to do with him. Over the years, the relationship between him and the Lu family had long been exhausted.
"Let's go to Baidu City." Jiang Xue Ning expressed her thoughts. "Since Gui Ye has shown rebellious intentions, we can no longer trust him, and Baidu City cannot be left without a master for long."
The situation over there was probably very complicated and a mess. She had to send someone she could trust.
"I'll let Jin Ling go with you. She's very capable and can help a lot. You two can reorganize the place."
As for Guiye, he is still imprisoned. She will decide how to deal with him after he tells her everything about Baidu City.
