The abstinent and powerful minister is cold and aloof during the day, but he adores her in his dream

Chapter 92 is definitely related to her.

Duan Ling, who was watching the show from the sidelines, laughed loudly, "Auntie, I agree with you!"

Hearing the laughter and chatter outside, Zhi Wanyi couldn't help but laugh too.

Ouyang Zhenzhu said enviously, "Madam Lu is so good to you, unlike my mother, who only knows how to deduct my monthly allowance. Sigh, I really wish I could switch places with you."

Zhiwan was both amused and exasperated. "If Aunt Ouyang hears this, she'll definitely be heartbroken."

"Hmph, she wouldn't." Ouyang Zhenzhu pouted.

Before long, the group set off.

As Lu Jinglan came out carrying her bundle, she saw the carriage drive away.

Her heart sank, and she reluctantly chased after the carriage for a few steps, but because her legs were weak, she fell to the ground after running only a few steps.

As Madam Wei watched the carriage depart, she was startled by the sudden sound of something heavy falling to the ground. Turning around, she saw Lu Jinglan lying on the ground, covered in dust and dirt.

She was secretly pleased, but her face showed surprise as she said, "Jinglan, what are you doing? Someone, quickly help Miss Jinglan up!"

The maids immediately rushed forward and helped Lu Jinglan up.

Lu Jinglan stared darkly in the direction the carriage had gone, her heart filled with resentment and bitterness.

Following her gaze, Madam Wei smiled and asked with feigned concern, "Jinglan, why are you only arriving now? Were you too excited last night and didn't sleep well, which is why you woke up late? Jinzhi and the others have already left. If you want to go to Jiangnan, I'm afraid you'll have to wait until next time."

Lu Jinglan snapped out of her daze and, seeing her amiable expression, nearly snapped her nails in half.

She woke up in the middle of the night last night with a sudden stomachache and got up more than ten times. By this morning, she felt weak and powerless. She even had to go to the toilet before leaving the room.

She only drank a glass of water before going to bed last night, so there must have been something wrong with the water.

This matter is definitely related to the Wei family.

She had someone drug her, causing her to miss her trip, and now she's pretending to care. How despicable!
A cold glint flashed in her eyes. Just as she was about to say something, a sharp pain shot through her abdomen. She could no longer care about anything else and turned to rush back to the mansion, but was stopped by Madam Wei.

"Jinglan, what's wrong? You look terrible. Should I call a doctor to take a look?"

Lu Jinglan clutched her stomach, her face contorted in pain. "I...I have a stomachache, I need to...I need to poop..." Suddenly, her expression changed, she pushed Wei Shi away forcefully, and ran quickly into the mansion.

Wei was pushed and stumbled, but she was in a good mood.

Lu Jinglan is running so fast, could it be that she pooped in her pants?

Tsk tsk tsk!
Wei raised her hand to her nose and fanned herself, looking disgusted.

That bitch Lu Jinglan, she dares to dream of going to Jiangnan with us. Does she think I don't know what she's up to?
If she succeeds and goes to Jiangnan, she will definitely take the opportunity to get close to Lu Zhan on the way. If something really happens then, she will be so angry that she will die.

Granny Fang's croton oil is excellent.

Let this slut stay in the latrine!

Inside the moving carriage, Zhiwan and Ouyang Zhenzhu had already heard from Granny Fang that Lu Jinglan had been suffering from diarrhea all night.

Both of them were astonished.

"...What did she eat wrong that caused such a serious problem?" Ouyang Zhenzhu asked curiously.

"Who knows? Miss Jinglan was originally planning to go to Jiangnan with us, but now there's no way around it. She's probably still squatting in the latrine right now." Granny Fang said with a regretful expression.

Ouyang Zhenzhu recalled what happened at the Prince Gaoyang's mansion last time and disliked Lu Jinglan. However, she breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, "Luckily, she had diarrhea." Otherwise, it would have been such a spoilsport if she had gone to Jiangnan with them. She didn't want to travel with such a despicable person.

Granny Fang pretended not to hear what she said, and only sighed, "Miss Jinglan, you are really unlucky. Of all things to do, this happens before you set off."

Zhiwan glanced at her thoughtfully.

Could Lu Jinglan's diarrhea be related to her aunt? Judging from what Granny Fang said earlier, although her cousin refused to take Lu Jinglan to Jiangnan last night, Lu Jinglan still insisted on going with him.

They're so shameless; no wonder my aunt resorted to such a desperate measure.

She didn't want to travel with Lu Jinglan either, which was perfect!

Soon, the group arrived at the dock and boarded the ship.

It was Ouyang Zhenzhu's first time on a boat. As soon as she got on, she grabbed Zhiwan's hand and started looking around.

Soon after, Lu Zhan ordered the boat to set sail. The boatman weighed anchor and steered the boat away from the dock.

"Ouyang Zhenzhu, you get back here right now!"

Shortly after the large ship left the dock, a figure suddenly appeared on the dock and shouted loudly in the direction of the large ship.

Upon hearing this voice, Ouyang Zhenzhu shuddered and quickly squatted down.

"Ouyang Zhenzhu, don't hide! I've seen you! Come back right now, or you'll regret it!" Ouyang Lei continued to utter threats from the dock.

Seeing this, Zhiwan and the others looked at the people on the dock in astonishment, and then at Ouyang Zhenzhu.

"Ouyang Zhenzhu, did you sneak out?" Duan Ling was the first to react, saying in disbelief.

Zhiwan also looked at Ouyang Zhenzhu in surprise, "You..."

Ouyang Zhenzhu looked at her pitifully, "Wanwan, please beg your cousin to send Ouyang Lei away."

Zhiwan looked troubled.

Ouyang Zhenzhu told her that her family had agreed to her going to Jiangnan, but Ouyang Lei came chasing after her in a fit of rage.

It was obvious that Ouyang Zhenzhu was lying.

Thinking of this, she became a little anxious and advised, "Why don't you go back? Your family will worry if you sneak out like this."

“But the boat has already set sail, and we can’t turn back now,” Ouyang Zhenzhu said stubbornly.

"What's so difficult about that? There's a small boat in the cabin. Just lower it down and you can take it back," Duan Ling said calmly.

Ouyang Zhenzhu gritted her teeth, but then said in a coquettish tone, "Brother Duan Ling, I will be very good and will never cause you or Lord Lu any trouble. Please tell my brother to go back."

Duan Ling: "..."

He was used to this girl's fierce and domineering nature; he had only seen her act this way when she was little.

He touched his nose and looked at Lu Zhan, "What do you say?"

Lu Zhan didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing, and said indifferently, "You handle it."

Duan Ling had no choice but to call out to Ouyang Lei on the dock, "Lei Zi, you go back. I'll keep an eye on her."

Seeing that the large ship was getting further and further away, Ouyang Lei really wanted to grab Ouyang Zhenzhu and give her a good beating.

That brat is getting more and more audacious.

"Ouyang Zhenzhu, if you dare to lose even a hair, come back and I will beat you to death!" Ouyang Lei roared.

Seeing that he was no longer stopping her, Ouyang Zhenzhu quickly stood up and waved towards the dock. "Brother, don't worry, I won't lose a single hair. When I come back from Yangzhou, I'll even bring you two 'skinny horses' as a gift!"

Ouyang Lei nearly lost his footing and fell into the water.
