Bian Guanyue sat down decadently, "Okay, okay, he deserves to be his son. Back then, even if I threatened death, he would not marry me.

It was only later that I had a child and he didn’t want his child to suffer, so he chose to marry me.”

He stood up, walked to Lu Xingci, reached out and touched his face. His eyes were full of fascination, as if he were looking at another person through him. Lu Xingci’s father, Lu Anguo.

"You and him look so alike."

Lu Xingci stroked her hand away and took a step back, "Here comes someone."

The guards came in from outside and surrounded several people. "My mother is not feeling well. Take her down to rest."

A guard came forward and took Bian Guanyue down.

Qingyun sat back and looked at Yan Siyuan, who had been drinking tea calmly, "know-it-all, you already knew this?"

Yan Siyuan paused while drinking tea and put down the cup, "I have indeed known this for a long time, but could you please stop calling me Know-It-All? It feels weird."

Qingyun curled her lips and said, "I think this title is quite good. It fits your character of knowing everything."

Yan Siyuan laughed and saw Qingyun's eyes full of doting and connivance. Since she likes it, let her scream.

Lu Xingci sat down where Bian Guanyue had been, and Qingyun looked at him, "Oh, you're still sitting here, your house is on fire."

Lu Xingci was helpless, "The princess doesn't seem to like me very much. Can Lu please ask why?".

"You kidnapped my cousin, do you still want me to be polite to you?".

"Your Highness, that's not kidnapping, that's consensual behavior."

Qingyun took a sip of tea. She had been arguing with Bian Guanyue just now and she was dying of thirst. I was afraid that there was something wrong with the water Bian Guanyue poured, so I never dared to drink it.

"I don't believe in consensual consent, you are just cheating."

"Okay, okay, let's do whatever the princess says."

Lu Xingci admitted defeat. He had seen Qing Yunshi fight several people with his own eyes. With his words, it was better not to waste any effort.

Snapped! Qingyun slapped the invitation on the table in front of Lu Xingci and said, "Tell me, what is going on?".

Lu Xingci took the invitation and read it with a frown, "I don't know about this."

"Hey, there is no such thing as the innocent in my case. You'd better tell the truth."

Qingyun sat up, crossed her arms, and crossed her legs. The raised foot was still swaying. Yan Siyuan patted her and she sat down, but she was still shaking her legs.

"Three days ago, I was reading in the study. I just felt dizzy and fainted after a while. When I woke up again, I was locked in a room in the backyard, with no one around me.

Someone would come regularly to bring me meals, but they never said a word. So I tried my best to contact Siyuan, and I wasn’t able to come out until just now.”

Qingyun looked at him questioningly, "Did you keep in touch with your cousin when you didn't meet?"

Lu Xingci scratched his head in embarrassment, "Yes... there is a connection."

"How do you contact her, how often do you contact her?" Qingyun said solemnly, as if she was interrogating a prisoner.

"We communicate by letter, probably once every four or five days."

"Did you have any contact with my cousin before you were imprisoned?".

"Yes, just after I ordered Zhujie to send the letter that day."

Qingyun touched her chin, "No wonder, my cousin is not worried at all after you have been detained for three days. In addition to her not knowing at all, there is also the fact that the interval between your correspondence is too long."

Lu Xingci seemed to have found a resonance, "Yes, yes, I also think it's too long, and it's so close, so I should write one letter a day no matter what."

Qingyun looked at him speechlessly, "Are you going to focus on the key point? Is this my point? My point is why you can contact Yan Siyuan but not your cousin."

"That's because I'm afraid Lanru will be worried. With her temperament, she will definitely cry."

"You still have some conscience," Qingyun glanced at him sideways.

He turned to look at Yan Siyuan and asked curiously: "He has been detained, how did you contact him?"

Without thinking, Yan Siyuan blurted out, "With carrier pigeons, they can deliver messages using special ventriloquism skills."

Lu Xingci wanted to stop it, but it was too late. Qingyun narrowed her eyes and stared at him dangerously, "What? Can't you tell me?".

Lu Xingci felt a little guilty and said, "Okay, of course."

Qingyun rolled her eyes disdainfully, "Now, we have to solve the invitation problem."

Lu Xingci straightened his expression, "Has Lan Ru seen this invitation?"

"Whoever her target is, then this invitation will be in the hands of whom."

Lu Xing stood up with a sigh and said, "Everyone, I'll excuse you for now." Then turned around and left.

"Hey, wait a minute." Qingyun stretched out her hand to pull him, but she didn't.

Yan Siyuan stretched out his long legs and hooked his toes, almost tripping Lu Xingci.

"Come back, come back. It's too late for you to go now. Let's discuss a solution first, and it's not too late for you to go."

Lu Xingci hesitated for a moment and decided it would be better to solve the problem first and then go to Mo Jingchun. He sat back to his original position, but this time, he felt a little restless.

Qingyun asked Yan Siyuan, "Everyone knows, how many people know this invitation?"

"As far as I know, almost all the prominent people in the capital know about it."

"I went, it was so fast, I delivered it to every house in one day."

"Yes, she even used a women's army."

Qingyun gave Lu Xingci a thumbs up, "Your mother is really amazing. It seems like she is here for real this time. She is not here to scare people."

Lu Xingci frowned and raised his eyes to look at Yan Siyuan, "Is it still too late to take back the invitation?"

"Basically everyone in the public knows about it now, and it's too late to take it back."

If it were just nobles from major aristocratic families, the worst they could do would be to laugh at each other. But if it has spread among the people, it is really embarrassing and will affect the status of the court.

Qingyun added fuel to the fire and said: "Oh, if it doesn't work out, just get married. Seeing how your mother worked so hard to make an engagement for you, it's actually not bad."

Lu Xingci looked at Qingyun with an unkind look, "It's okay if the princess doesn't help. How can you say such a thing? If you really do this, the princess should know better how sad Lan Ru will be."

"It's because I understand that I think you should marry me."

Qingyun also became serious, looking at each other with Lu Xingci, refusing to let anyone go.

"The princess thinks I can't protect Lan Ru?"

"If you could protect it, this invitation would not appear in her hands."

"It was just an accident."

"You said the same thing last time."

Lu Xingci was offended, "Then the Prime Minister's Mansion didn't protect Lan Ru and let this invitation get into her hands, right?"

Qingyun was furious and said, "Boy, don't make me beat you."

"The princess is only twenty-six years old now. It's better to play with children, and don't fight and kill at every turn."

Qingyun jumped up and was about to beat him, but Lu Xingci was so frightened that he hid behind the chair. Yan Siyuan hugged Qingyun and stopped her from moving forward.

Qingyun jumped in Yan Siyuan's arms, "Let me go, I'm going to kill him. I'm poisonous, I'll poison him and me."

Yan Siyuan held down her hand that was pulling out the poison, "Mo Jingchun will no longer want to kill her. Do you want to see Mo Jingchun crying? It's better to keep him first."

Qingyun then stopped and glared at Lu Xingci, staring at him.
