After I stopped being a lady from a rich family, I fought all over the capital

Chapter 283 More frightening than evil spirits are people.
Due to her past lifestyle habits, many of the ideas that had troubled her throughout her life had long been ingrained in her very being.

Faced with this helpless situation, Liu Yueniang instinctively wanted to ask for help.

When she was pampered and kept at home, her first instinct was to seek help from her husband.

Later, her husband turned his back on her, deceiving her into marriage and abandoning her and their children. Although Liu Yueniang was deeply saddened, she was determined to sever ties with the past.

But often, we still get used to feeling helpless and need others to save us and guide us.

They might want to place all their hopes on someone else.

Previously, she had raised her son with great difficulty.

Thinking she had found someone to rely on, she often turned to her son for help.

but……

Liu Yueniang nervously rubbed the corner of her clothes and looked around the room. The only person she was somewhat familiar with was Song Lan.

When she encountered danger while escaping from the Samsara Bureau, it was Song Lan who miraculously saved her.

She subconsciously wanted to rely on someone.

As for Song Lan killing her, she's been dead for so long that she can no longer hold a grudge.

Besides, she didn't blame Song Lan at all.

There are many things to fear.

After all, it was the person who killed him.

But Song Lan also saved her!
Not to mention, even if Song Lan hadn't killed her, she would still have died at the hands of the Zhang family or the Cui family.

It would be better to die at Song Lan's hands!

At least, Song Lan gave her a quick death!
Otherwise, if she really fell into the hands of those people, it's hard to say what the outcome would be.

I'm afraid even a quick and painless death is a luxury.

Liu Yueniang was even more afraid. If she died, she wouldn't be able to live either. Not only would she be captured and tortured in every way, but she would also become a bargaining chip to threaten Tian'er.

In comparison, Song Lan is clearly a good person!
And here, she was only familiar with Song Lan...

Humans are naturally inclined to seek advantage and avoid harm, and even ghosts are no different. Why would Song Lan heed the pleas for help from his enemy's mother?

She remained calm, ignoring Liu Yueniang's gaze, and said to Cui Jue, "Lord Cui's words are indeed very reasonable."

"But, in that case, isn't it a bit too perfunctory and far-fetched to just give her a small intern ghost messenger position?"

"She's just a newly appointed ghost officer, perhaps she's not familiar with many of the duties yet, so how would you know anything about ghostly powers?"

"I'm afraid that even now, they still don't know how to cultivate ghost power."

Song Lan glanced at Liu Yueniang: "I'm afraid this is the first time she's come out to seduce souls, isn't it?"

"Do you know how to use that soul-snatching chain?"

"Do you know where to take this soul after you've taken it?"

"Do you know how the orders to collect souls from the underworld are distributed among the various ghost messengers after they are issued?"

"Do you know how you get held accountable if you take the wrong soul?"

Song Lan's words went straight to the heart of the matter.

Liu Yueniang knew nothing when asked.

Cui Jue kept wiping away sweat.

"Instead of saying these seemingly caring but actually empty words here, Lord Cui would be better off finding him a good mentor."

"With the guidance and careful instruction of experienced and seasoned ghost messengers, the newly appointed ghost messengers can better, faster, and more skillfully get started and become familiar with the various duties that ghost messengers in the underworld should perform."

Song Lan raised an eyebrow: "Does Lord Cui think I'm right?"

"Correct!"

Cui Jue kept wiping away non-existent sweat, his voice trembling with nervousness, yet he still dared not utter a sound.

"What you say is absolutely right, sir!"

"It has provided us with important, clear, and correct guidance for our work!"
