Lu Xiang was puzzled when he heard Ling He’s words.

“Lord, why are you so wary of Luo Ziyang?! I’ve seen Luo Ziyang before. He’s nothing special!”

“What’s outstanding about him is that he’s proficient in everything! He doesn’t look outstanding, but he Imows 90% of everything! Think about it, how terrifying is that?!” Ling He said.

When Lu Xiang heard this, he immediately understood why his lord was so wary of Luo Ziyang.

If a person had some talent in one aspect, they could be considered a talent.

However, it was terrifying for someone to be outstanding in all aspects.

Take martial arts for example. Some were good at using swords, some were good at using knives, some were good at using whips, some were good at attacking, some were good at defending, and some were good at using poison.

But when one was proficient in everything, it was terrifying.

He knew how to use all kinds of weapons. He could attack, defend, and use poison. He also had superb medical skills and was a master craftsman.

Such a person was definitely the most troublesome to deal with.

After Luo Cheng left Hele Village, he left Luo Ziyang in the village to guard this place.

“We still have someone we can use! If we use him well, there might be a big surprise!” Lu Xiang suddenly thought of something and reminded him.

Ling He said, “I know who you’re talking about. Don’t panic yet. Let’s put this chess piece aside for the time being and use it at the critical moment! You can’t alert the enemy like before! Keep that person in check. Don’t let her cause any more trouble!”

Lu Xiang nodded and thought about what to do.

Li Xiaoran didn’t know that Ling He was targeting the businesses in her hands. At this moment, she was focused on the development of her career. Although Xu Niansheng and the others could be used, Li Xiaoran was a little hesitant.

Li Xiaoran gave this answer to Xu Niansheng and the others.

“It’s not impossible for you to seek refuge with Luo Cheng, but I can’t answer for my husband now, so you have to wait for him to come back!”

When Xu Niansheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he was immediately disappointed.

“Consort, you still don’t believe us?”

Li Xiaoran nodded and admitted it.

“As expected of a woman. She doesn’t have any guts at all! Sir, let’s do our own thing! I believe that we can definitely avenge ourselves with our own abilities!” Little Six immediately said angrily when he heard Li Xiaoran’s refusal.

“Shut up!” Xu Niansheng frowned at Little Six.

Li Xiaoran had always known that Little Six looked down on her, so she didn’t mind.

“I’ve already expressed my intentions! Please leave!”

“Can’t you give us a chance, consort?” Gao Hu stood up and asked sincerely.

Li Xiaoran glanced at Gao Hu and sighed.

“To be honest, in this situation, I really can’t accept you guys! If it were any other time, I would definitely give you guys a chance, but definitely not now! I can’t gamble with the lives of my buddies and family! If you’re really sincere, you guys can do something to help! Time will prove everything!”

Gao Chao understood what Li Xiaoran meant, so he cupped his hands and thanked her before leaving with everyone.

After leaving the Luo family’s house, Little Six complained.

“I knew it. We shouldn’t have come back then! All of you said that the consort wasn’t a simple person! Reality proves that she’s just a timid woman!”

“Little Six!” As soon as he said this, Zhen Liming said, “Little Six, why are you always targeting the consort? In the past, we thought that you were just being insensible, but why are you still targeting the consort? The consort has already made it very clear that she doesn’t dare to gamble with the lives of the people around her. This is enough to show that she is benevolent!”

“What bullsh*t benevolence? She’s just too soft-hearted!” Little Six said indignantly.

Du Wen couldn’t help but say, “According to you, they should welcome us in with a smile and treat us well? Why? Because you’re shameless? Or because you’re small? Little Six, Zhen Liming is right. There’s something wrong with you! With your attitude, it’s normal for the consort not to accept us! No one will let someone who has negative opinions about them work by their side!”

“What? Are you all blaming me now? Do the rest of you think so too?” Little Six became irritable when he heard this.

Gao Hu and Xu Niansheng frowned, but before they could say anything, they heard Little Six say angrily, “Alright, seems like you all want to vent your anger on me! If you guys don’t like me, I won’t follow you guys anymore! You guys are just like the consort. Look at how spineless you all are!”

With that, Little Six left.

Seeing this, the others sighed before continuing to rush towards the house in town.

The argument outside naturally couldn’t be hidden from Luo Ziyang, who told Li Xiaoran about this.

“Madam, you’re right! Who knows what this group of people’s goal is? We have to be careful at this time!”

When Li Xiaoran heard what happened outside, she immediately laughed.

“Everything else aside, I really can’t take in Little Six! I don’t have the extra energy to deal with them now! Now, I feel that the fewer people, the better. Having too many people isn’t conducive to what we want to do!”

Luo Ziyang also felt that if Little Six was really on their side, he would definitely be a source of trouble, so he didn’t think that it was wrong to refuse to take these people in.

Luo Cheng had already met the Third Prince, Ling Heng.

The brothers met again with mixed feelings.

“I really didn’t expect the last time I secretly entered the palace to see Father to be the last time I’d ever see him!” Ling Heng said sadly.

Luo Cheng didn’t have deep feelings for his father, so although he felt upset, he quickly pulled himself together.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The third prince, Ling Heng, was different. To him, the emperor was his father. After the emperor passed away just like that, Ling Heng had yet to recover.

Luo Cheng reached out to pat his Third Brother’s shoulder.

“Third Brother, you have to pull yourself together.. You can’t let Prince Fu take everything from Father! We have to protect the land Father left behind!”
