Lu Zhiran smiled slightly, revealing a barely perceptible arrogance between his brows. "Zhang Xiangxiu has her reasons for not coming to pay her respects. We don't need to take it too seriously."

She gently put down the teacup in her hand, and the tea leaves danced gently in the water, like green elves dancing.

Fu Yue looked at Lu Zhiran, her eyes gleaming with admiration, "Madam is really open-minded. If it were me, I would have been so angry that I would have jumped up and down."

"After all, Aunt Zhang has provoked Madam more than once or twice!"

Every time, as long as Fu Yuzhang and Lu Zhiran had a slightly deeper relationship, she would do all kinds of trouble and pretend to be aggrieved, and pull Fu Yuzhang over.

But Fu Yuzhang just fell for Zhang Xiangxiu's trick.

Fu Yue gently stroked the teacup on the table, as if she could smell the faint fragrance brought by the tea leaves.

"Oh? You're so angry. I remember you two had a good relationship. Didn't you pass on a message for her last time?"

Lu Zhiran said last time.

It was the first day she entered the mansion that these people came together to show their power to her.

Sure enough, as soon as Lu Zhiran mentioned this matter.

The hall was silent for a moment.

All of Fu Yuzhang's concubines were a little embarrassed.

Fu Yue coughed twice awkwardly.

"It's just a show. In fact, we all know that the Marquis is just playing with us. Only Aunt Zhang is his true love. How dare we not listen to her!"

"Then you dare to say bad things about Zhang Xiangxiu now, because you think she is not the Marquis's true love."

"Cough cough cough..."

Lu Zhiran speaks too bluntly.

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, not knowing how to answer.

In fact, it’s not Lu Zhiran’s fault. She really doesn’t know how to get along with these women of Fu Yuzhang.

After all, she had never encountered these things in her previous life!

The women looked at each other, and finally pushed Fu Yue out.

Fu Yue continued the awkward conversation: "Now the Marquis dotes on Madam very much, so naturally we want to find a backer."

"Oh, so that's how it is!" Lu Zhiran said meaningfully.

Could you please stop talking so irritatingly?

Fu Yue almost wanted to slam the table.

It is really difficult to have a normal chat with Lu Zhiran.

Fortunately, Lu Zhiran himself also felt that the atmosphere was a bit weird.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."

Lu Zhiran stood up and stretched. "Let's go out for a walk. This room is so stuffy." A long-lost smile appeared on her face, as warm and bright as the spring sunshine.

Finally achieved his goal and let Lu Zhiran go out for a walk.

Fu Yue and several concubines smiled at each other and stood up one after another.

They followed Lu Zhiran and walked out of the house.

The sunlight shone on Lu Zhiran, making her figure look even more slender and elegant.

Her face was pure and elegant, with a cool temperament between her eyebrows. Her skin was as white as jade, as if it could be blown away. Her hair was as black as ink, and was simply tied into a bun, gently fixed with a jade hairpin.

It is already so beautiful that it is beyond description.

Fu Yue looked at Lu Zhiran like this.

I couldn't help but sigh secretly in my heart.

No wonder the Marquis likes her so much.

No wonder Zhang Xiangxiu lost her composure and teamed up with these people to set up a trap to frame her.

Fu Yue quietly said sorry to Lu Zhiran in her heart. In fact, Lu Zhiran was a really good person.

He has a straightforward and free-spirited personality, although he is not very friendly.

But I won't have any intention of harming anyone.

Unfortunately, in this courtyard, their identities were destined to be in conflict.

Not only Zhang Xiangxiu saw the change in Fu Yuzhang, but they also saw it!

If they don't take action now, Fu Yuzhang might really change his ways and never come to them again. How can they survive then?

Zhang Xiangxiu, as Fu Yuzhang's obsession since childhood, can be retained.

What about these people?

What should they do?

In addition to Lu Zhiran and Zhang Xiangxiu, there are 13 concubines in Fu Yuzhang's backyard. Some of them came from brothels, and some were maids given to Fu Yuzhang by Old Lady Fu because of their good looks.

And there was the daughter of a good family that he hooked up with outside.

A dozen people walked together in the courtyard of the Marquis' Mansion, attracting waves of surprised looks from the servants in the mansion.

Lu Zhiran seemed not to notice and was just enjoying the scenery around him.

They walked to the front of the pond. The sea breeze blew, causing ripples on the surface of the lake. Lu Zhiran stopped, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

Let yourself relax quietly.

"Madam, it's so comfortable to feel the breeze here!" Fu Yue exclaimed.

Because it was morning, the sun was shining brightly.

So it’s really comfortable to feel this wind.

Lu Zhiran smiled slightly, "Yes, this pond is indeed a unique feature of the Marquis' Mansion." She looked into the distance, as if she saw more beautiful scenery.

They walked across a small bridge with a gurgling stream beneath it.

Lu Zhiran stood on the bridge, watching the stream flow slowly, with a peaceful heart.

"Madam, look over there." Fu Yue suddenly pointed ahead and said.

Lu Zhiran looked in the direction of Fu Yue's finger and saw a pavilion not far ahead with a woman sitting in it.

The woman was dressed in gorgeous clothes and had a beautiful face. She was Zhang Xiangxiu.

When Yue Fu saw Lu Zhiran and Zhang Xiangxiu, a hint of pride flashed in her eyes. It was worth it that she led the team all the way and brought Lu Zhiran here.

Zhang Xiangxiu sat in the pavilion, holding an exquisite round fan in her hand and gently waving it.

There was a smug smile on her face, as if she would be the ultimate winner in this mansion.

Lu Zhiran looked at Zhang Xiangxiu, his heart calm.

You should be proud of yourself, it's normal to have a child.

It’s better to be happier so that the baby will be safe.

"Madam, look at her smug look, it's really disgusting." Fu Yue said in a low voice.

Lu Zhiran smiled faintly, "What's there to be unhappy about? I didn't provoke you."

"She is proud of herself, let's go!"

"I'm leaving now!"

Fu Yue was a little anxious because she didn't achieve her goal.

Her original intention was to deliberately provoke Lu Zhiran, but she was not fooled at all. How could this be possible!

Hearing Yue Fu's words, Lu Zhiran looked at her with some dissatisfaction.

Yue Fu just remembered what he had just said and seemed to have lost his composure.

"What I mean is, Madam, why don't you go meet her? Madam Xiang must be pregnant, so she is so proud. If she successfully gives birth to a child, Madam, as the Marquis's legal wife, will be laughed at by other ladies when she goes out to attend any party."

Lu Zhiran looked at Yue Fu coldly and finished speaking.

Yue Fu's words became quieter and quieter under Lu Zhiran's sight.

"So you want me to get rid of this baby!"
