After Xiang Yanghong thought about it for a moment, he added, “Ordinary people like the Seventh Consort naturally won’t be able to withstand the pressure of that murderous aura. The reason you didn’t feel anything when you were practicing martial arts inside was because you had vigor that could restrain this sinister aura. That’s why you were safe and sound! At that time, the state preceptor lured this sinister aura to the martial arts field to use the vigor of the men to slowly dissipate it!”
After hearing Xiang Yanghong’s words, Li Xiaoran finally understood.
It turned out that what made her feel uncomfortable was sinister aura.
Li Xiaoran said, “No wonder I didn’t feel as depressed and uncomfortable as before when I came back to sleep in the house this time. It turns out that the fengshui of this house has been adjusted!”
Luo Cheng didn’t expect this to happen.
Luo Cheng finally said, “My father is quite thoughtful!”
He couldn’t bring himself to say anything sentimental.
However, he wasn’t a heartless person, so he wouldn’t remain indifferent either.
Although he was touched, Luo Cheng still had his bottom line.
If the emperor wanted Luo Cheng to inherit the throne, he still wouldn’t agree.
Now, he would at most treat the Old Master a little better and help him resolve some trouble!
Li Xiaoran suddenly thought of something and said, “Husband, since there’s no problem with the house here, let’s move back!”
After Luo Cheng thought about it, he felt that they might as well move back in.
After all, they still had to enter the palace to celebrate his birthday later, so they had to return to the Seventh Prince’s official residence.
Luo Cheng said, “Then let’s stay here! I think those people already know our identities, so someone might come looking for us!”
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately thought of something.
Li Xiaoran said indifferently, “So be it. I won this money with my own abilities!”
Luo Chenz laughed when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words.
“Xiaoran, you’re right. You won these with your own abilities, so no one can snatch them away!”
With that, Li Xiaoran threw this matter to the back of her mind and started thinking about food instead.
“Husband, the weather is getting hotter, so why don’t we make some porridge and omelets for lunch?!”
“As long as you’re happy, you can do whatever you want!” Luo Cheng had always agreed to Li Xiaoran’s requests.
After Li Xiaoran ate breakfast, she went to make omelets for lunch.
After Luo Cheng and the others brought people back to the Seventh Prince’s residence last night, many people guessed that the people who went to the casino were the couple.
Even if they couldn’t recognize Li Xiaoran, they could recognize Luo Cheng. After all, he had not hidden his appearance at all previously.
Ling Kun, who was recuperating in the prince’s residence, was furious when he received the news about the casino’s incident.
“It’s Luo Cheng again. Luo Cheng, the enmity between us is irreconcilable!” It turned out that the boss of this casino was the second prince.
After Li Xiaoran and Wu Qinghe’s commotion last night, the profits of the casino immediately decreased to a very low level. Moreover, gamblers were unwilling to gamble in that casino anymore.
Because everyone was afraid of encountering people like Li Xiaoran and Wu Qinghe again!
Since they kept losing money, no one was willing to go anymore.
It seemed that the people who lost a lot of money yesterday were the gamblers, but in fact, the casino lost the most money.
Of course, the people who had lost a lot of money yesterday were determined to get back the money they had lost.
However, after knowing Li Xiaoran and Wu Qinghe’s identities, they could only swallow their anger.
It couldn’t be helped. They had won so much money by relying on their own abilities.
If they used this excuse to cause trouble for the Seventh Prince, they would undoubtedly cause trouble for themselves. Of course, it wasn’t that no one came.
The Ma family came.
The people who came were none other than Ma Baoshan and his father, Ma
Dongshan.
After getting the invitation card, Luo Cheng gave it to Li Xiaoran.
“Li Xiaoran, do you want to see them?”
Li Xiaoran, who was cutting potato shreds, thought about it for a moment, then nodded and said, “Invite them in! ”
Soon, Ma Dongxing and Ma Baoshan saw Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng, who were busy in the courtyard, under the guidance of the servants.
Luo Cheng was sitting on a stool while washing chives.
As for Li Xiaoran, she had just cut all the shredded potatoes and placed them in the water. Then, she prepared to cut some more shredded cucumbers.
Ma Dongxing and Ma Baoshan were stunned when they saw this scene.
“Greetings, Seventh Prince and Seventh Consort!” Ma Dongxing quickly came back to his senses and bowed to Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng.
Ma Baoshan also recognized that the person cutting the dishes was the person who had gambled with him yesterday, so he immediately lowered his head with mixed feelings.
He was angry and uncomfortable, but also curious.
Luo Cheng said to the father and son, “I know why you’re here, but the Sheep
Jade isn’t with me. It’s with my wife! So, you should ask her!”
When Li Xiaoran heard her husband’s words, she looked up and put down the Imife. Then, she took half a cucumber and washed her hands as she ate it.
Li Xiaoran said after taking a few bites of the cucumber, “Sit down at the stone table at the side. Then, let’s talk!”
Ma Dongxing and Ma Baoshan naturally wouldn’t refuse. The father and son came to the stone table and sat down.
After the servants served tea, Li Xiaoran watched as Ma Dongxing and Ma Baoshan took a sip of tea and said, “I know why you’re here. You must be here for the Sheep Jade! I can give you the Sheep Jade, but you have to exchange it for something!”
Hearing Li Xiaoran’s words, Ma Dongxing heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he said even more politely, “I wonder what you want, Seventh Consort?”
When Li Xiaoran heard Ma Dongxing’s words, she smiled and looked at Ma Baoshan.
“Actually, the reason I accepted the bet yesterday wasn’t because of this Sheep Jade, but because of you, Ma Baoshan!”
When Ma Baoshan heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he was immediately shocked.
At this moment, Ma Baoshan couldn’t help but look up at Li Xiaoran, as if trying to determine her motive.
Not only Ma Baoshan, but even Ma Dongxing was shocked.
At this moment, he saw that Li Xiaoran wasn’t joking, so he began to ponder over it.
Ma Baoshan couldn’t help but ask, “What do you mean?”
Li Xiaoran said to Ma Baoshan, ‘What were you thinking when you challenged me yesterday?”
As soon as he heard this, Ma Baoshan began to recall it..
