After rebirth, my elder sister wants to steal my husband!

The little maid was intimidated by his aura and stammered, "Husband... Madam... She is not here."

"Then where is she?" Fu Yuzhang's tone was filled with a hint of urgency and anxiety.

The little maid replied in a trembling voice: "Husband... Madam went to the city gate, saying that she had to deal with some things and would not be back for four days."

The little maid was young and was frightened so she told everything.

Hearing this answer, Fu Yuzhang felt an inexplicable sense of loss and anger in his heart.

He didn't expect that such an important matter as Lu Zhiran's going to Chengguan was concealed from him.

Moreover, I just discovered it at this time.

Fu Yuzhang turned and looked at Zixiang, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

"Zixiang, you are so brave! You actually dared to lie to me together with my wife!" There was a hint of anger in Fu Yuzhang's voice.

Zixiang was so scared that she fell to her knees and kowtowed repeatedly: "My Lord, please spare my life! Madam is doing this for your own good and doesn't want you to worry."

"Worry? If she really doesn't want me to worry, she should tell me the truth!" Fu Yuzhang's voice was full of anger and sarcasm.

Fu Yuzhang glanced at her coldly, but the anger in his heart did not subside.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm the turbulent waves in his heart.

When he opened his eyes again, the anger in his eyes had subsided a lot.

He looked at Zixiang, his voice still cold, but a little more firm: "Take me to find her now!"

"I know you know all about Lu Zhiran."

Fu Yuzhang said coldly.

Zixiang raised her head and looked at Fu Yuzhang's stern face, and she couldn't help but shudder in her heart.

……

In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the courtyard of the Lin Mansion, adding a touch of warmth and joy to the celebration banquet.

In the center of the courtyard stands a huge mahogany table, which is filled with all kinds of delicacies and fine wines, making the air smell mouth-watering.

Exquisite lanterns and ribbons are arranged all around, creating a festive and solemn atmosphere.

Although there were few servants in the Lin Mansion, they were all very skillful.

These are the servants that Lu Zhiran bought back. All the servants who used to be in the Lin Mansion left with the head of the Lin family.

To celebrate this banquet.

Lu Zhiran changed her clothes specially and wore an elegant dress with the hem swaying gently. Her face was beautiful and refined, her eyebrows were like distant mountains, and her eyes were like autumn water. She was in high spirits when she was happy, and at this moment she was radiant and beautiful.

With the arrival of Siqi, Lu Yunqi, the shopkeepers and others, the courtyard gradually became lively.

General Wu Da also came to the celebration banquet with several of his personal soldiers. They had a great conversation with Lu Zhiran, Lu Yunqi and others, and recalled together the hardships and joys of regaining the property.

"Madam Hou, this time we were able to successfully retake the property thanks to your wisdom and courage!" General Wu Da raised his glass to toast Lu Zhiran.

Lu Zhiran smiled slightly and said modestly: "General, you are too kind. Without the support and help of you and all the soldiers, how could I succeed?"

Lu Yunqi also smiled and said, "Yes, this time it's all thanks to the general, otherwise my sister wouldn't be able to do it so smoothly..."

Everyone raised their glasses and celebrated enthusiastically.

After drinking for a while, everyone was a little reserved at first, but later, perhaps under the influence of alcohol, they began to speak freely.

Lu Yunqi looked at Lu Zhiran beside him, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

"Lu Zhiran, come with me."

Lu Zhiran put down the wine glass in his hand and followed him to a place, "What's wrong?"

Lu Yunqi wanted to say something but stopped himself. Lu Zhiran stood there waiting for him for a while, but he didn't speak yet.

Then he said, "If you don't tell me, I'll go back!"

"Don't go!" Lu Yunqi said quickly, not caring about his self-esteem towards Lu Zhiran.

"General Wu Da is the Third Prince Su Ye's man. The Third Prince sent someone to help you this time. Is the relationship between you and the Third Prince pretty good?"

Lu Zhiran narrowed his eyes.

"Brother, if you have anything to say, just tell me!"

"Your sister Nian Yao and your brother-in-law Mu Qi Zong were imprisoned by the Third Prince because they offended him. I thought you had a good relationship with the Third Prince!"

"Can you please ask the Third Prince to release Nian Yao and the others?"

What are you daydreaming about?

She wished that Lu Nian Yao and Mu Qi Zong would be locked up there for the rest of their lives.

Saving her is wishful thinking.

However, since he had just taken Lu Yunqi's shop, it would be difficult for him to refuse directly. It was indeed a case of being obliged to return the favor. If this had happened before Lu Yunqi gave the shop to Lu Zhiran, why would Lu Zhiran care so much?

Just reject his request!

So, Lu Zhiran sighed softly, with a helpless look on her face: "Brother, it's not that I don't want to help you, in fact, I haven't even seen the Third Prince, how can I help you!"

When Lu Yunqi heard this, his eyes widened, obviously not believing her.

"How is this possible? If you haven't even seen the third prince, why would he send a general to help you take back the Lin family property?" There was a hint of doubt in Lu Yunqi's voice.

"Zhiran, is it because of what happened before that you have a grudge against your sister Nian Yao, so you don't want to save her?" There was a hint of temptation in Lu Yunqi's voice.

Lu Zhiran's heart trembled, knowing that Lu Yunqi was testing her attitude. She took a deep breath, calmed her emotions, and then slowly said, "Brother, I am not unwilling to save you because of personal grudges."

"But I really have never met the Third Prince."

"I don't have any friendship with him at all. The reason why he was willing to help me this time was all because of Ke'er!"

"Ke'er!"

Lu Yunqi was not unfamiliar with this name, it was even a household name.

It was because of this daring maid that so many troubles occurred.

Lu Yunqi asked: "What does this have to do with Ke'er? You know her whereabouts."

Lu Zhiran sighed and said, "Ke'er is now the concubine of the Third Prince. My maidservant has some friendship with her, so I asked her to ask the Third Prince to arrange for the general to help me get back the Lin family's property, but that's all I can do."

"Then... can you go and beg Ke'er again? Ask her to help plead with the Third Prince?" There was a hint of urgency in Lu Yunqi's tone, as well as a hint of flattery and pleading.

Lu Zhiran shook his head and sighed, "Brother, you don't understand Ke'er. Although she is now the concubine of the Third Prince, it does not mean that she can influence the Third Prince's decision. Moreover, she hates Nian Yao to the core, so how could she be willing to help her?"

When Lu Yunqi heard this, his face suddenly turned pale.

He knew very well that he really had no other choice this time.

He sat dejectedly in the chair, his hands hanging limply on his knees.
