Chapter 549 No Name (Two Chapters in One)

"Pomegranate!"

Madam Luo walked quickly into the large hall and saw Shi Liu inside. "Shi Liu, how are you? Are you okay?"

Shi Liu was sitting on a round chair, her face was pale, the corners of her mouth were blue, she was holding a cup of hot tea in her hand, and she was wearing a thick cloak, but she was still shivering slightly from the cold. Fu Dong was squatting beside her, sobbing softly.

Her eyes were red. She glanced at Old Madam Luo and forced a smile, "Aunt...Grandmother."

Hearing the call of "grandaunt", Mrs. Luo's eyes turned red, "It is my great aunt who has wronged you! It's all my fault. I made you suffer like this today. I will give you an explanation for this matter."

Luo Fu, who came in later, glanced at Shi Liu and greeted the Marquis of Jing'an with a bow. "My Lord, it's all because of my poor parenting..."

The Marquis of Jing'an had a stern face and spoke very impolitely, "Miss Li is my cousin's niece. If Miss Li didn't already have an adoptive father, my cousin would have adopted her as his adopted daughter long ago!
But even if there is no official relationship between father and daughter, my cousin treats Miss Li no differently than his own daughter. So Miss Li is the cousin of our Marquis Jing'an Mansion. How dare you, the Luo Mansion, bully her like this? It is clear that you do not take our Marquis Jing'an Mansion seriously.

Lord Luo, you must give an explanation to the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion today!"

Luo Fu was shocked. He didn't expect that the Prince of Jing'an would be so tough, as if he would not give up until the Luo family satisfied him.

How dare the Luo family go against the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion?

But if he was asked to call his daughter out to be dealt with by the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion, then his Luo family would not be able to gain a foothold in the capital and their reputation would be ruined!

This is really a dilemma.

He couldn't help but look at Madam Luo.

Madam Luo patted Shi Liu's hand, then stood up straight, glanced at the Marquis of Jing'an, and said slowly, "I love Shi Liu very much, and I won't let her suffer in vain. What happened today is all my family's fault for Shi Liu. I am the one who has let her down. If there is an explanation, it should be me who gives her an explanation."

After that, she looked at Shi Liu again and continued, "Shi Liu, everything that happened today was because Qian Qian didn't know people well, was ignorant, and was taken advantage of. I think you know who is behind this. Grandma won't excuse Qian Qian. She did something wrong and she should pay the price.

So, starting tomorrow, she will go to Jing'an Temple to worship Buddha and copy scriptures for a year. After that, I will marry her off far away from the capital. Please, Shi Liu, for the sake of your great-aunt, preserve the reputation of the Luo family, okay?"

Hearing this, Shi Liu raised her eyes and glanced at Madam Luo, praising her in her heart. She was worthy of being Madam Luo, who became a young widow and raised her stepson and daughter alone until they grew up, and whose stepson passed the imperial examination and became a Jinshi, and whose daughter married into the Weiyuan Earl's mansion!
The Luo family is holding a banquet today, and some gossip will spread more or less. Let Luo Qianqian go to Jing'an Temple to worship Buddha, which is also to avoid all the chaos. After that, she will marry far away from the capital. It is also because of Luo Qianqian's personality that marrying in the capital will cause trouble sooner or later. It is better to marry a family with a lower family background, which is easier to control and will not let Luo Qianqian cause any trouble and cause trouble to the Luo family————

This is a far-sighted plan!

She pursed her lips and wiped the corners of her eyes, "It's all up to my great aunt."

"Good child, it is your great aunt who feels ashamed of you!" When Mrs. Luo saw that she was relieved, she immediately felt a little relieved. She was also really ashamed. She immediately asked Aunt Lu to go to her warehouse to order more good things and give them to Shi Liu, one as an apology, and the other as an apology.

After hearing what Shi Liu had said, the Marquis of Jing'an and Liu Dongjia looked at each other and didn't say anything more.

Luo Qianqian, who was still arguing with her mother that she had not hidden Li Shiliu at all, saw Madam Lu bringing people in and out. She noticed the things on the tray with her sharp eyes. Wasn't that the things from her grandmother's storehouse?

Her eyes widened. When her aunt got married, her grandmother gave her a lot of private property. She thought that most of the remaining things in her grandmother's storehouse would be given to her in the future! After all, there was no unmarried girl in the mansion except her.

But who is grandma going to give these things to?
Mrs. Luo San had the same idea as her daughter. There were a lot of good things in the old lady’s warehouse, and she was keeping an eye on them for her daughter!
When I asked, I found out that these were all given to Li Shiliu by the old lady.

Luo Qianqian heard this and shouted excitedly, "I've already told you, I didn't hide Li Shiliu, I didn't! Grandmother gave her so many good things to apologize to her? No! Come back here!"

Luo Qianqian's eyes turned red. How could she watch these things that originally belonged to her being given to Li Shiliu? This was more painful than killing her!
She started to rush forward.

Madam Lu suddenly returned with two servants and said solemnly, "The old lady has ordered that the second young lady be sent to Jing'an Temple immediately!"

Luo Qianqian was startled, then she reacted and shouted, "No! I don't want to go to Jing'an Temple! Mother, Mother!"

Mrs. Luo was also startled and quickly protected her daughter behind her, "Where is the master? The master won't allow it!"

"What the old lady meant is what the master meant. The distinguished guests haven't left yet, so it's better for the lady not to make a fuss. Otherwise, maybe we won't be going to Jing'an Temple, but somewhere else."

Mrs. Luo San's face turned pale, and she immediately thought that this must be the pressure from the Marquis of Jing'an.

She turned around and hugged her daughter, comforting her, "Qianqian, be good, wait until you are out of this storm, and then I will pick you up."

Nanny Lu watched from the side and didn't say much. The second young lady would be gone for a year and wouldn't be able to come back. Of course, she wanted to apologize to Miss Li, but in fact, the old lady had long wanted to discipline the second young lady.

It was only when she heard that Third Madam Luo had given her money and sent her maids to take care of her that Lu Ma spoke up, "Third Madam, the old lady has arranged everything. You don't have to worry about it. The old lady has said that the second young lady doesn't need to bring anything, just a little maid."

"Mother, mother! I don't want to go, I don't want to go!" Luo Qianqian cried with red eyes, and she held on to Mrs. Luo San and refused to let go.

Madam Lu asked the maid to carry her up, removed the threshold, and drove the carriage out from the corner gate. Luo Qianqian did not show her head during the whole process, so naturally no one would notice her loss of composure.

At that time, at the main gate, Shi Liu was being helped onto a carriage, carrying a carriage full of gifts, and slowly drove away from the gate of Luo Mansion, passing by the inconspicuous green cloth carriage.

"The second Miss Luo seems to be struggling inside, and her mouth is covered." Fu Dong's ears twitched slightly, and he reported to Shi Liu.

Shi Liu took off her outer garment, and put on another one with Fu Dong's help. She took the hand warmer and held it in her arms. She lowered her eyes and straightened her clothes. She curled her lips and said, "She has bad intentions and wants to make fun of me. I'll just send her to the temple to copy Buddhist scriptures for a year."

Fu Dong agreed, but asked curiously, "Why is the girl in her yard?"

Shi Liu's eyes fell on the carriage curtain, and her thoughts drifted back to a while ago -

She opened the bathroom door and was about to go out, but was attacked by a black shadow that suddenly appeared and was knocked unconscious.

Fortunately, she had made arrangements in advance. She asked Fu Dong to go to the carriage to get clothes so that she could deliver a message to Zuo Cheng.

The verbal message was a signal, and the brothers Ke Hu and Wei Xing immediately sneaked into the inner courtyard to look for her, and happened to run into her who was kidnapped by the man in black.

In the fight in the dark alley of Luo's house, the man in black also had an accomplice. After being rescued by Wei Xing and waking up, she immediately made a decision. Taking advantage of the chaos in Luo's house, she asked Wei Xing to hide her in Luo Qianqian's yard, making it look like she was hidden by Luo Qianqian.

Of course, she was really left alone and suffered a lot.

Pomegranate couldn't help but sneeze.

Fu Dong immediately became worried, "Miss, are you feeling unwell?"

Shi Liu shook her head. "It's okay. Just go back and have a bowl of ginger tea."

The Luo Mansion was searching for her inside and out. She entered the mansion from outside and was found inside, and was found in Luo Qianqian's yard. Naturally, the latter is more appropriate. If it was the former, there would be no way to punish Luo Qianqian so harshly. At most, she would have to apologize and kneel in the ancestral hall and that would be the end of it.

And she was found in Luo Qianqian's yard. Who would not believe that it was Luo Qianqian who had her locked up?
Luo Qianqian can forget about getting away with this matter.

Since Luo Qianqian is the gunman today, she must be prepared to pay the price, right?
But she didn't expect it. She wondered what Miss Shi San's purpose was, but she didn't expect that it was Princess Zhaozhao who instructed her.

And Princess Zhaozhao - there might also be someone plotting to kill someone behind her back.

The previous "chance encounter" was not in vain. That person finally couldn't sit still. He had failed to kill her several times before, so this time he resorted to such tricks, trying to take advantage of the little girl's jealousy and take her away by taking advantage of the situation.

After all, when she went to the Luo family for a banquet, she could only bring a maid with her to the inner house, and she was not allowed to bring any guards or bodyguards in. Wouldn't it be easy for her to be attacked?
Fortunately, she had been prepared and asked Wei Xing and others to sneak into the inner courtyard of the Luo family. Otherwise, if she had been taken away by the man in black today, she would have probably drunk Meng Po soup long ago.

That person was also fully prepared. He didn't know whether Wei Xing and the others who went to chase people were okay. Just now at Luo Mansion, there were some things that he couldn't say too much.

Shi Liu was also worried. When they returned to Yutaifang, Shi Liu invited Liu Dongjia in for tea and asked, "Uncle Liu, how is it?"

The son of Marquis Jing'an split off from Suzaku Avenue and went back to Marquis Jing'an's Mansion. Only Liu Dongjia came in this time.

He first asked Shi Liu if she felt unwell or had caught a cold. He was relieved to know that she did not. He continued, "Zuo Cheng sent a signal. My people saw it and reported it to me immediately. I quickly sent a message to your highness's people. Fortunately, they were prepared early. Your highness's people chased after him together with your people.

But when we chased them to Anpingfang, they disappeared. The black-clad man who kidnapped you escaped, and the rest were either killed or committed suicide by biting themselves. Not a single one was caught alive."

Today, I have worked in vain.

Hearing that Wei Xing and the others were all fine, Shi Liu also breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, after what happened today, it's confirmed that Wang Yan is Li Yan."

Liu Dongjia nodded, "Your Highness's people have rushed to Changzhou day and night, just waiting for the news from there to come back. Your Highness has also secretly had people keep an eye on the Wang family to prevent them from escaping."

----

Lord Xia, dressed in black, knelt in front of the young man, covering his left shoulder that had been stabbed by a sword with his right hand, "I have failed to do my job well, please punish me, Master!"

The young man standing with his back to me slowly turned around. The candlelight shone on his thin and pale face, making his figure look as graceful as a bamboo.

He smiled bitterly, and the words that came out of his lips were almost gnashing his teeth, "It's really hard to save her life."

Master Xia held back the pain, gritting his teeth in hatred, "The Wang family and you have been secretly targeted, Master, you must make plans early!"

The young man took a deep breath, walked slowly back to the desk, and looked down at the table.

There was a map on the table, with some dots and marks on it, like a topographic map.

He stretched out his hand and pointed at a few places, and tapped the edge of the table with his other hand. After a moment, he slowly sat down and said with a stern face: "Plan ahead of schedule."

Lord Xia immediately clasped his fists and said, "Yes!"

-

The Luo family held a spring viewing banquet, but the banquet ended early. This matter would not have caused any waves in the circles in the capital. After all, the Luo Mansion was just a small doctor's house.

But who could blame them for also attending the banquet that day? Plus, I heard that the son of Marquis Jing'an also came to the Luo family, and I didn't know what the reason was.

This led to some curious people who were interested in the matter. After asking around, they found out that someone was causing trouble at the banquet. It turned out that the girl who was targeted was not completely unknown, and it took the son of Marquis Jing'an to come forward in person. This meant that the matter was of great importance.

I heard that the second Miss Na Luo went to Jing'an Temple to pray for her elders. This sounded like an unusual name, and they were familiar with this kind of tactics. On the surface, they said they were praying for blessings, but in fact they were being punished.

After further inquiries, it was discovered that the second Miss Luo was only instigated, and the person behind the scenes was actually Miss Shi, and there was someone else behind Miss Shi. All these details made it difficult for those who wanted to gossip to say anything more.

But out of selfishness, he couldn't help but tell his daughter to stay away from Miss Shi San in the future and not to be intimate with her, lest she be used one day -

Because of this incident, Shi Liu turned a disaster into a blessing, and the reputation of the Doll House became even more famous in the upper circles of the capital.

After the young lady from the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion held a doll banquet, the reputation of the Doll House became even more popular, and it even started a trend of subtle competition to see who had more dolls, and people took pleasure in collecting all the dolls in the Doll House.

This also made the business of the Doll House extremely popular. The shop was crowded with people every day, and the threshold was shining from being worn out by footsteps.

Shi Liu made a fortune and seized the opportunity to buy a three-room shop with a backyard in Chunyu Lane, not far from Zhuque Avenue in the inner city. Of course, he spent a lot of money.

The shops in the inner city are really not cheap.

However, all the money spent will be earned back.

Shi Liu hurriedly asked Jiang Bing and the other two to get busy, decorating the shop, hiring workers, starting the workshop, and rushing to deliver the goods.

She also hurriedly drew a batch of new blueprints and launched new products when the new shop opened.

Time passed in such a busy manner, and in a blink of an eye, it was March 3rd.
