Old Uncle Zhang's tone was light, but it was obvious that his guess was correct.

Ling Xi's expression turned awkward.

Looking at his granddaughter, Uncle Zhang shook his head. "I don't know when you will be able to cure me of this problem. If you can let me see that day, even if I die, I can feel at ease."

"Grandpa always says some unlucky things." Ling Xi panicked.

"It is because you are still not confident that you suspect others. You are afraid that your grandfather will leave you, afraid that you will fail yourself. Ling Xi, shouldn't you also learn from me and look yourself in the eye? " Uncle Zhang's gaze turned colder.

He said unkindly.

Hearing this, Ling Xi lowered her head, not daring to look at Uncle Zhang's appearance.

In the end, the two of them left on bad terms.

At this moment, Mu Ru Yue had already left this place. Once she left the southern part of the city, Mu Ru Yue got back into the carriage and prepared to head back. It was the box that had just been delivered to her.

He had earned quite a bit from this meeting with Uncle Zhang. Mu Ru Yue had a very good impression of Uncle Zhang. In fact, without Uncle Zhang with her, she would have already been estranged from Ling Xi because of Ling Xi's attitude.

It was also because of Uncle Zhang that she was still willing to trust Ling Xi. This was because the trust she had for Ling Xi was her disguised trust in Uncle Zhang.

The relationship between the three of them couldn't be changed. Although those two didn't say anything, as long as they weren't blind, everyone could tell that the relationship between Uncle Zhang and Ling Xi definitely wasn't as simple as one being from the Southern City's District.

In fact, it might even be closer than what she imagined.

Mu Ru Yue didn't try to pry into other people's secrets, so naturally she didn't try to pry into it. However, the most important thing at the moment was to find someone who had the mind to do business. This was something that he had to do at the moment!

Just as Mu Ru Yue was worrying about where she should go to look for someone, she heard a horse cry and the carriage staggered.

"What happened?" With her thoughts interrupted, Mu Ru Yue's tone was slightly unfriendly.

Outside, the coachman was also a bit flustered. He looked carefully and then said, "To reply to Princess Wangfei, there's someone blocking our way."

"Oh? Ask who it is. " Mu Ru Yue replied, slightly displeased.

With that, he heard the people outside shout first, "Esteemed wangfei, this one is Young Master Jiang's servant. My young master has been waiting for you for two days already, he said that if you see your carriage, you must stop it."

"Jiang Clan?" Mu Ru Yue muttered to herself in the carriage as she thought of Jiang Zilan's infuriating face. With a smirk, she asked, "Your family's young master wants to see me?"

"Esteemed wangfei, you're really smart. You've already guessed that my young master wants to meet you."

"Stop flattering me. Tell me, where is your young master?" Mu Ru Yue interrupted the attendant and asked. When the attendant heard this, he said, "My Young Master is still at home."

Mu Ru Yue was so angry she almost laughed. "Your family's young master wants to see me and stop my car, but he is still at home? Do you think I'm easy to talk to? " With that, Mu Ru Yue lifted the curtain.

They had just left a small alley not far away from the southern district. At this moment, no one was passing by.

Seeing this scene, Mu Ru Yue couldn't help but be surprised. Jiang Zilan wouldn't do such an infuriating stupid thing with his personality, right?

Just as Mu Ru Yue was wondering, the attendant's depressed voice rang out. "Reporting to the Royal Consort, my family's young master is being confined by the old master."

Detention?

At this moment, Mu Ru Yue smiled. Could it be that Jiang Zilan had really been locked up because of the day he let her and the princess go? Thinking of this, Mu Ru Yue suppressed her laughter and asked, "If that's the case, then how can I meet him?"

"Master is not here today. If you go, as long as you don't take the young master away, there is a way. The Young Master said that he had something urgent to ask you, so please do. " The attendant continued.

There was even a hint of urgency in his tone.

Mu Ru Yue pondered. He looked at the attendant and asked, "Is there any proof?"

"My young master said that if wangfei still remembers to disguise as a man …"

"Alright, get on the carriage and lead the way." Mu Ru Yue interrupted the attendant decisively. No one knew about the incident where she and Worryfree disguised themselves as a man and snuck into the training field. Even if there were, there weren't many who dared to harm her.

Besides, only Jiang Zilan would be able to stop him here.

Thinking about this, Mu Ru Yue stopped suspecting him. In reality, this young servant was not a problem at all. He quickly drove the carriage to the Jiang Clan's front door. At this moment, the Jiang Clan's main gate was tightly shut. It seemed to be a very solemn place.

"My family's young master bribes the guards in the backyard. Follow me." Then, Mu Ru Yue walked into the back door. This was the only door that the servants of the mansion could take when they wanted to go out and buy something.

After the two of them were stopped at the door, the servant said in a suppressed voice, "This young lady is the one my young master has taken a fancy to. My young master has been punished by my master in the past few days, and he wants to bring her in.

As he spoke, he gave a bag of silver to the guard.

Mu Ru Yue was then let in. Even the guard's gaze towards Mu Ru Yue was a little dubious. How could Mu Ru Yue not understand now? The so-called good way to sneak in was to pretend that she was Jiang Zilan's sweetheart?

Had Jiang Zilan really gone mad? He actually even dared to take advantage of her!

"Princess, please take responsibility. My young master has no other choice." The attendant saw that Mu Ru Yue's smile was a little cold, so he said that carefully.

Mu Ru Yue glanced at the boy and smiled. "You are really loyal. Your master has always been a cynic. I didn't expect him to have such a obedient follower." "It's quite rare." Mu Ru Yue sighed.

"Mistress is a good person." The manservant said confidently.

Mu Ru Yue didn't refute him. One's character wasn't something that could be seen just by how one treated others. Perhaps in the eyes of this servant, his young master wouldn't do anything bad, but perhaps in the eyes of others, his young master was a heartless person who hurt someone?

Good and evil are hard to refute. Mu Ru Yue only believed what she saw.

The attendant brought Murong Yue around in a winding manner before finally arriving in front of a thatched cottage that seemed to be built over a long period of time.

"This is the Jiang Clan's ancestral hall. The Jiang Clan's ancestors made their fortune with a thatched cottage, so this thatched cottage was used to make the ancestral hall. The young master is waiting for you here." This little one will keep watch for you two. " With that, the servant left in a hurry.
