Old Madam Jin said to Li Xiaoran with certainty, then sighed.

“Good child, it’s not that I want to upset you, but something big has happened in the capital! The emperor has already passed away, and Prince Fu has received the imperial decree for the throne. The princes, including the crown prince, are all dead, and the Third Prince is still being searched for! Although the Seventh Prince wasn’t mentioned, his disappearance at this juncture is really suspicious!”

When Li Xiaoran heard Granny Jin’s words, she knew that she was really concerned about her.

However, this matter was important and she couldn’t take the risk, so she could only lie to Granny Jin.

Li Xiaoran said, “Granny Jin, I know what you mean! No matter what, my husband will come back safely! Even if my father is gone, even if there’s a huge change in the capital, this has nothing to do with us. I know Granny Jin is worried that the capital will put the blame on my husband, but I definitely won’t admit to anything we haven’t done! If Prince Fu really wants to interrogate me, I’ll have to question him. Did he secretly kill my husband to get rid of trouble for himself? That’s why there’s still no news of him!” When Old Madam Jin heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she understood what she meant.

From the fatigue and bitterness on her face, Old Madam Jin knew that this girl actually knew everything and had already considered everything.

That’s right. If something really happened to Luo Cheng, she, the consort, had to brace herself and take over everything.

After all, Luo Cheng still had a lot of businesses. Someone had to take care of those businesses!

Old Madam Jin only hoped that Luo Cheng would really be lucky enough to return safely.

In the end, Old Madam Jin said, “If you have any difficulties, you can look for me. I can give you some ideas!”

Li Xiaoran said, “Granny Jin, don’t worry! I’ve already grown up! Even if my husband isn’t around, I can support this family! Besides, Ziyang will help me! As for me, with the support of a group of people who care about me, I’m confident in facing everything!”

Old Madam Jin nodded in relief and left.

Not long after Old Madam Jin left, Luo Ziyang arrived.

“Madam, someone is looking for you again! This time, it’s Xu Niansheng and the others!”

When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Ziyang’s words, she pondered over it for a moment.

Previously, Li Xiaoran had heard from Wu Qinghe that Xu Niansheng had asked them to read their fortune.

Li Xiaoran could guess why Xu Niansheng and the others had come to look for her.

She had guessed it, but she had to consider if she should use these people very carefully.

After all, Luo Cheng wasn’t around at this moment, so she was in charge of everything. At such a critical period, she was wary of anyone who took the initiative to come.

Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and said, “Invite them in! At this time, if I don’t see them, they’ll use other methods to see me!”

Luo Ziyang nodded and asked someone to invite them in.

Xu Niansheng thought that when they saw Li Xiaoran, they would see a haggard and terrified Li Xiaoran.

However, when they really saw Li Xiaoran, they realized how wrong they were.

At this moment, although Li Xiaoran was a little haggard, she wasn’t terrified.

It was obvious from her sharp gaze.

After Li Xiaoran invited them to sit down, she said, “There’s no need to beat around the bush. Since you guys came at this time, you must have something to say! Let’s get straight to the point!”

“We won’t beat around the bush! We wanted to seek refuge with Mr. Luo! It’s just that Luo Cheng hasn’t appeared yet, and there are rumors outside. We thought that the consort might be of use to us, so we came to seek refuge with you!” Xu Niansheng said their plan without hesitation.

As Li Xiaoran looked at Xu Niansheng and the others, she tapped her fingers on the tea table and said aloofly, “You guys know very well that this is a critical period. How can I believe that you guys came to help me and not to harm me?” She seemed aloof, but she exuded a powerful sense of oppression.

Even Little Six, who had looked down on Li Xiaoran previously, couldn’t help but sit upright with a solemn expression.

At this moment, Xu Niansheng and the others realized that Li Xiaoran wasn’t an ordinary woman.

As expected, the consort wasn’t to be underestimated.

Gao Hu thought for a moment and said, “I know that we seem very suspicious! In fact, some time ago, we were wondering if we should seek refuge with Mr. Luo. The reason we were hesitating was because we weren’t sure if Luo Cheng would take us under his wing. After all, the few of us have some blood feuds and have provoked a very powerful faction!”

“Then why are you guys here now?” Li Xiaoran asked calmly.

Xu Niansheng realized something and changed his attitude as he said, “The reason we are here this time is because we have the same enemy as you guys!” Xu Niansheng said, “You must have received the news from the capital! The royal family has undergone a huge change. The princes are all dead, and the whereabouts of the Third Prince and the Seventh Prince are a mystery. The emperor passed down the throne to Prince Fu before he died. Now that Prince Fu has ascended the throne, he will probably kill the Third Prince and Luo Cheng next!”

“Do you mean that you have a blood feud with Prince Fu?” Li Xiaoran asked.

“No, to be precise, we have a blood feud with Ling Wei, who has now been conferred the title of crown prince. Actually, when we met again, we didn’t know who our enemy was! After Prince Fu ascended the throne a few days ago, his subordinates no longer hid anything. Then, our brothers discovered some clues and confirmed that Prince Fu was our enemy! ” Gao Hu said with hatred.

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately thought of something and asked,

“Prince Fu? Have you seen his people recently?”

Gao Hu said, ‘We didn’t see Prince Fu, but we saw that his confidant was the murderer of our family. We followed him for a few days before we confirmed their identities.. That’s why we rushed to you after receiving the news from the capital!”
