This was sent over by the manager's wife this morning. The fragrance was crude, but at this time, Lu Jingran took a deep breath, causing his heart to be slightly at ease, "Fourth Miss does not need to go out, I will do my best to protect your life."

His memory is always good, until now he still remembered that he was duped into going to Duke Chengan Manor by someone. Nanny Ren beside him said that there were many children around his age by the lake, so he happily went over, but who knew that right after arriving at the lake, he raised his small face and asked where his playmates were. Before he even finished speaking, he was pushed down by Nanny Ren.

When he saw the lake, he knew that the situation was not right. But in the eyes of the Aunt Di and the Nanny Ren, was he really an idiot?

He allowed himself to sink into the water, and at that time, he vaguely heard the voice of a girl on the shore.

After he was rescued, he overheard his grandmother say that if not for the good intentions of the Fourth Miss s from the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, he probably would have died in the Duke Chengan Palace that day. She even said that it was fortunate that the s did not know that they had saved his life, or else there would have been no end …

Actually, it wasn't that he didn't know how to act stupid, it was just that he was good at acting stupid … With such a powerful Aunt Di, if he did not have such capabilities, he probably would not have lived until now.

When he heard Lin Shu introducing herself earlier, he gave her a deep glance. Even though she shouldn't have returned the favor with a spring of water, she should have still wanted to repay the favor with her life!

Lin Shu could not help but heave a long sigh of relief, and the huge boulder hanging over her heart had finally been put down.

Lu Jingran even helped Mr. Bai up with his own hands, "You have been entrusted by Grandfather when he was on his deathbed with giving me pointers, I am deeply grateful for all these years, but I have many things that require my own thoughts and decisions … If we were to really ignore them, I am afraid that they would really lose their lives, this time I have saved them, and after we leave this place, if First Princess Pingning wants to do anything, I will not do anything, I do not care anymore. "

In the end, it was all to seek peace of mind.

Mr. Bai did not say anything else.

Even though he was an advisor, he was still a servant after all. He didn't have the qualifications to decide for his master.

The group of people outside did not hear anything for a while, and could not help but become anxious, "If you don't hand over the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion and Fourth Miss s, then don't blame me for being ruthless."

Lu Jingran didn't even look at Lin Shu as he raised her voice: "Wait a moment, even if it's that girl's house, it would still take some effort to tie her up. Can it be that we can fly with our wings splayed?"

As he spoke, he ordered someone to open the top of the beam. Fortunately, the beam was triangular, and the archers outside could not see the movement of the other beam.

Actinin Qin and the rest were all carried by the guards to the front, and at this critical moment, they could no longer attend to the defense of men and women.

Everyone was looking at Lin Shu, but no one stepped forward — This was a girl from Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion!

Seeing that the footsteps from outside were getting closer, Lu Jingran did not care at all. He hugged Lin Shu's waist and stepped on the table, then grabbed onto a rope from the roof and climbed up to the roof, the rest of the guards were extremely quick, and quickly went up to the roof.

When the people outside entered the house, there was already no one inside.

Lu Jingran quickly brought a group of people to escort Lin Shu away, while Mr. Bai brought another group to block the door of the house. One person came to kill one person, in case Lin Shu and the rest were caught up.

The group ran for who knows how long, and after walking around a few mountain peaks, Lu Jingran finally found a cave, and directly told everyone to rest for a bit, before making his plans later.

Lin Shu's body was already completely drenched. Even though she was alive, she was still trembling from the cold. She felt that his legs were cold and painful, as if they were not her own.

Actinin Qin immediately walked over, hugged her arm, and whispered: "Miss, are you alright?"

With the help of National Duke Ning, Lu Jingran had suffered a lot in the past few years in Tianjin, so this heavy rain was nothing to him, and he could only say: "What happened to Fourth Miss?"

Lin Shu's lips had already released a black hue, she shook her head and replied softly: "It's fine."

Actinin Qin only kept rubbing her hands so that she could warm them up a little.

But Cloudbean held Cherry's hand and talked nonstop, feeling especially sorry for this little girl who grew up in a brothel. "You don't know, our young lady has always been afraid of the cold and doesn't fear the heat. When winter comes, she has to have a thick blanket over her body, and when she sees it, she can't help but say that our young lady must have been a bear in her previous life. When winter comes, she wants to go hibernate.

Cherry didn't reply, but after a short while, he found a lot of dry firewood in the cave.

As the fire got bigger, Lin Shu's body also started to feel warm. She looked at Lu Jingran and said sincerely: "Although I do not have to thank you for your kindness, I still have to thank young master. If you did not help me today, I'm afraid that we would all be dead by now. In the future, if there's anything that Young Master can help me with, just open your mouth and it will be fine. "

Lu Jingran's gaze could not help but turn towards Lin Shu.

"Fourth Miss is too polite, it was just a small effort." He smiled slightly, his expression was carefree and very beautiful, completely different from his usual arrogant and despotic look, "Only, First Princess Pingning … Fourth Miss is better off if we stay far away from him. I don't know why he charged into First Princess Pingning, but I do know a bit about his personality. His methods are ruthless and ruthless.

"I heard that when the previous emperor was alive, he had a mandarin duck cat that was raised by his concubine. Although the mandarin duck cat was smart, it was only a beast, and once, it accidentally injured First Princess Pingning's hand, not to mention taking the life of that cat, the life of the First Princess Pingning caused people to harm that concubine's face, so naturally, the previous emperor harshly reprimanded the First Princess Pingning, but not long after, that concubine died for no reason at all … The imperial physician might have said that the concubine had died from an illness, but everyone was very clear on the cause! Although the late emperor was angry, at that time, the First Princess Pingning was protected by Empress Zhou, and there was not much evidence, so the matter could not be resolved. "

He was raised under the, so he naturally knew more about the secrets of the palace than Lin Shu. He was not in a good position originally, but looking at Lin Shu now, she felt very pitiful.

When Lin Shu heard it, she could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. Although she always knew that the First Princess Pingning was arrogant, she never thought that she could be this arrogant.

Thank you young master for telling me these things, but unfortunately, even if I wanted to avoid First Princess Pingning, he would not let me off! There was not a single trace of panic on Lin Shu's face as she said seriously: "The only thing we can do now is to take things one step at a time."

It was useless to panic, as they would actually panic themselves!

Lu Jingran nodded his head, after all, they had only met by chance and there were many things that he should not have asked or meddled with, "At that time and until now, what did Fourth Miss plan to do? I'm afraid that it will be hard to return to the Villa, maybe those people will still be guarding the place, do you want me to send a few people to send Fourth Miss back to Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion? " He looked like he was about to throw away the burden as soon as possible!

In fact, he had already done so much for Lin Shu today. Although the people sent by First Princess Pingning did not know his identity, if they really looked into it, it was not impossible to find out!

Lin Shu thought for a moment, then nodded her head: "Since that's the case, then I'll have to trouble young master."

Both of them were able to see through each other. One knew who the other was, while the other knew that the other was their "savior". However, both of them pretended to be confused …

Lu Jingran must have something important to do, so after sending a few people to send Lin Shu back, he dressed in wet clothes and disappeared amidst the torrential rain.

Due to the heavy rain, it was already three days later when they arrived at the capital. Lin Shu was not bold enough to bring the cherry back to the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, she only ordered Yun Dou to stay at an inn with Cherry for the time being. If there was anything that they liked to eat, they could just spend some money to buy it. She was laughing so hard that her eyes could no longer be seen.

But Lin Shu knew that Lin Pei must have found out about it. When she went to the Manor in the carriage, there were several times that when she got out of the carriage and went to rest, she caught sight of a few suspicious looking people behind her.

Even if she didn't think about it, she knew that those people were from Princess Changze and Lin Pei.

But after waiting several days for her to return to the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion, Lin Pei didn't even say a single word … There was not even a shred of affection between father and daughter.

Lin Shu only smiled bitterly, she was too foolish. To Lin Pei, her career as a official was the most important thing, whether it be her sons, daughters, or women, all of them were secondary!

As for her and her mother, they were even less important.

In the past few days, she had focused on holding Lin Hui's hand and asked a lot of questions about the National Duke Ning's Palace.

Lin Hui had always loved to gossip, but now that she mentioned it, it could be said that it was endless. Even if the National Duke Ning himself personally stepped in, no one would be willing to marry their own daughter to him. Pity that Grand Madam was an age and yet he still had to worry about these things, it's truly pitiful. In my mother's words, if not for that evil being around, life in the National Duke Ning would be really too comfortable. "

Thinking about what the Mr. Bai had said that day, Lin Shu muttered: "Does the National Duke Ning's wife not care about this matter?" Logically speaking, the marriage of a concubine should be the concern of the Aunt Di.
