After returning from the Wu residence, Lu Jing locked herself in her room. Every time she thought about how she could no longer marry the man she wanted to marry, and how her reputation was at stake, she couldn't help but hide under the covers and cry. Her servant girl wouldn't listen to her no matter how hard she tried, so she just let her cry.
Old Madam Lu sent someone to see her, but seeing her like this, she couldn't persuade her anymore. She went back to Old Madam Lu, and Old Madam Lu only said to let her go.
Lu Jing felt that no one cared about her and that everyone didn't care about her, which made her feel even more wronged.
The next day, Lu Fang came to see her early in the morning. Lu Jing buried herself in the quilt and didn't want to see anyone.
"Fourth Sister, are you not going to see me?" Lu Fang pushed the door open and walked in, ignoring the servants' obstruction. She sat down on the drum stool next to the bed. "Are you throwing a tantrum? You don't even want to see Second Sister. "
Lu Jing's voice was hoarse. "Second Sister, leave. I don't want to see you even when I'm sleeping."
"What are you doing? Do you think others will sympathize with you because you're feeling sorry for yourself? You've been in the Lu Family for so long. Don't you know what kind of people Old Madam and Eldest Brother are? " Lu Fang scolded him in exasperation. "Apart from Eldest Sister and Yao Yao, the Old Madame has never treated anyone especially well, not to mention you. Even the servants know how to watch the dishes, don't you?"
"Second Sister, what do you mean? Do you also think that I'm dirty and not worthy of Old Madam's care?" Lu Jing lifted the quilt, revealing her haggard face. Her eyes were swollen from tears.
Lu Fang was shocked by her appearance. "How did you become like this?"
"The Wu Family ruined my reputation and refused to marry me. What can I do in the future? I might as well die, "Lu Jing whimpered.
"Die?" Lu Fang-er sneered, "Then wouldn't I have to die several times? Back then, Yaoyao would rather die than marry Liang Chun. In the end, the first madam schemed against me. I was blinded by lard. Look at what kind of life I'm living now. Jing 'er, you still have a chance. How can you admit defeat? "
Lu Jing looked at Lu Fang in a daze. "What else can I do? What else can I do? "
"If old madam is doing this for your own good, she will help you regain your face and let you marry someone better than Wu Congmin. If she only wants to protect the Lu family's reputation and Yaoyao's reputation, she will probably send you to Jinkou City and let second uncle and aunt decide your marriage. What else can you do if you go to Jinkou City? However, in my opinion, you might have a chance if you go to Jinkou City, "said Lu Fang-er.
"I don't want to go to Jinkou City." Lu Jing screamed, "I spent so much effort not to follow my father and mother to Jinkou City. I finally graduated from the Women's College. Am I just going to resign to my fate?"
Lu Fang'er tried to persuade her, "You might not necessarily have no way out of Jinkou City. Are you telling me that Jinkou City is full of merchants? Jing 'er, it's impossible for you to marry Tang Zhen. You should put away this thought. "
Being exposed, Lu Jing burst into tears. She just wanted to marry Tang Zhen. Now it was even more impossible.
"Tang Zhen came to the Lu family yesterday. Did he care about you?" Lu Fang'er sighed and said, "Fourth sister, you still don't want to give up?"
Lu Jing bit her lip and burst into tears.
Cry, cry! After crying, it's time to grow up. Lu Fang'er looked coldly at Lu Jing, who was crying bitterly. How could she be the only one who hated the Lu family? How could she be the only one who suffered? She wanted Lu Jing to be like her, to hate the Lu family and those biased people forever.
Who would believe it? So far, she and Liang Chun had not consummated their marriage.
Her life had been ruined in the hands of the Liang family. However, the people who made her live such a miserable fate were Liu Shi and the Lu family!

"Yaoyao went to Chengde Villa to pay respects to the Empress Dowager?" When Mo Rongzhan heard Ford's report, he raised his handsome face from behind the desk.
"Your Majesty, the Princess went out to Chengde Villa early this morning." Ford replied in a low voice. He really admired the emperor. On the first day after returning from Zhao Island, he issued such an imperial edict. After a few days, he didn't go to the Princess to explain, and the Princess didn't go to the palace to find him. He was angry with himself all day long, and he didn't know what he wanted.
Mo Rongzhan's heart was filled with a depressed anger. This little girl! She actually ran away without saying a word. Was she really not angry at him for wanting to betroth her? Even if … even if she knew what he wanted to do, at least she should go to the palace to ask him. She didn't care about anything. Not only did she go to the banquet leisurely, but now she also went to Chengde Villa.
In her heart, was he really so insignificant?
"Your Majesty, you have been back for so long, but you haven't paid respects to the Empress Dowager yet." Ford reminded. If he wanted to see the Princess so much, then he should take the initiative to find her. Didn't he break into the boudoir at night before? How could he become a gentleman now?
Your Majesty, you really have nothing to do with a gentleman.
Mo Rongzhan's cold handsome face showed a trace of agreement. "You are right. Zhen should also go pay respects to Mother."
Ford lowered his head and held back his laughter. "Yes, Your Majesty."
"Imperial Brother, I want to go find Mother." Mo Rongzhan hadn't stood up yet when he heard Mo Rongyi's voice coming from outside.
Mo Rongzhan's face darkened. He saw his younger brother run in. "Imperial Brother, Mother sent someone to tell me to go to Chengde Villa to accompany her."
"Why didn't Zhen know?" Mo Rongzhan asked coldly.
"I will tell you now. Imperial Brother, I will also bring the Headmaster to Chengde Mountain. I will study hard." Mo Rongyi said.
Mo Rongzhan said, "Zhen should also go pay respects to Mother …"
"Imperial Brother, then I will go to Chengde Villa first. Come back when you are done." Mo Rongyi said with a smile. He felt that his imperial brother would definitely not leave the capital so soon.
There were still a lot of things waiting for him.
It was a pity that before Mo Rongzhan was ready to set off for Chengde Villa, Tang Zhen had already entered the palace to see him and reported to him that Old Madame Lu wanted to go to Hu Guo Temple. Mo Rongzhan was overjoyed. "Let the abbot see them and do as I ordered."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Tang Zhen knew that the emperor would be overjoyed. This was like someone sending a pillow when he wanted to doze off.
Now it was a critical moment. He couldn't leave the capital …
"What about the two candidates I chose for the Princess? Let Lu Shiming enter the palace. He is the father of the Princess. He should have a look. "Mo Rongzhan said this with a bit of anger.
Tang Zhen bowed his head and smiled. "Yes, Your Majesty."
"Let Prime Minister Xu pick up Xu Ji." Mo Rongzhan said lightly. He still needed to use Prime Minister Xu, so … the punishment for Xu Ji would stop here.
"Yes." Tang Zhen's eyes darkened. Although he agreed, he knew very well that the emperor would never let Xu Ji go easily in the future.
