Xiang Yanghong explained, “I was originally from the royal family’s Cloud Brocade Palace. That day, I was ordered to ask the Empress for a bottle of good wine from the old patriarch’s house. Unexpectedly, on the return to the palace, some assassins appeared and injured me. They even snatched that bottle of good wine. When I was on the verge of death, I was lucky to encounter you,

Seventh Prince, so I survived!”

Luo Cheng immediately understood.

When he was expelled from the family, Consort Shu and Consort Li of Cloud Brocade Palace had their most intense battle. No wonder the person in front of him was implicated.

“Since you’re in my residence now, work hard! I only need loyal people here!” Luo Cheng said as he held Li Xiaoran’s hand and walked towards the main courtyard.

Luo Cheng said, “We’re tired after being on the road all night. Get someone to prepare hot water and send it over! By the way, some shady people are following us outside, so tell the guards to be vigilant tonight! No matter who it is, as long as they dare to barge in, they will be killed without mercy!” Then, Luo Cheng left.

When Xiang Yanghong heard Luo Cheng’s words, he understood.

This was probably a test from the Seventh Prince!

If this matter was settled tonight, he could stay here forever.

After figuring this out, Xiang Yanghong immediately perked up and made arrangements.

Ever since the last time the Seventh Prince was chased after when he arrived at the residence and they left him in the lurch, the emperor had been planning for Luo Cheng.

None of the guards in the Seventh Prince’s residence were pushovers.

As expected, not long after Luo Cheng and the others went in, those who were greedy for money continued to chase after them.

Unfortunately, they encountered elite experts secretly nurtured by Xiang Yanghong and the emperor this time. Naturally, all those who came were eliminated.

Luo Cheng was soaking in the bathtub while listening to the commotion outside.

Li Xiaoran had yet to wash up.

She took off her makeup first and washed her face. Only then did she feel much better.

Luo Cheng, who was bathing, laughed when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words.

“I think you look good now. It’s better not to disguise yourself in the future!” Li Xiaoran laughed when she heard Luo Cheng’s words.

“I still think that the lesson I gave the casino today isn’t enough. I plan to go to a few more casinos!”

“No, you should wait for a while! After what you did tonight, the casinos in the capital will become vigilant!” Luo Cheng thought of something and said, “It’s impossible for you to do something like this again!”

When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, she nodded regretfully.

“You’re right. This kind of thing can’t be done twice. Sigh, what a pity! But how should I spend the money I earned today? I want to use it for charity, but I don’t want my money to be wasted! Husband, think of a good way for me!”

After Luo Cheng thought about it for a moment, he said, “I don’t like the capital. There are many high-ranking officials here, and there are many people doing good deeds, so we aren’t needed here. On the other hand, many families in the mountains of Sichuan are living such a miserable life! Since my fief is in Sichuan, I might as well use this money on my fief. Firstly, it can bring real benefits to the commoners, and secondly, I won’t get deceived.”

Li Xiaoran agreed, “That’s right. Since we’re doing a good deed, it’s naturally better to do it ourselves! In that case, put away this money and send it back to Sichuan!”

Luo Cheng thought of something and asked, “By the way, why did you bet with Ma Baoshan previously? Don’t say that you like that Sheep Jade. No matter how good that Sheep Jade is, it’s not worth you betting all the money you won.”

When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, she pondered for a moment and said, “There’s no significant reason. I just saw this person standing on the line between light and darkness, so I wanted to help him!” Luo Cheng was stunned when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words.

“Did you sense anything?”

After Li Xiaoran thought for a moment, she said, “Actually, people are very complicated. A good person might not be entirely good, and an evil person might not be entirely evil. Some people become good or evil with one decision. Ma Baoshan is in such a state now! I want to help him! I’m not forcing him to become a kind person, but he can’t become an evil person!”

Luo Cheng didn’t expect Li Xiaoran to gamble with Ma Baoshan for this reason. “How can you be sure that a bet with him will change his mind?”

Li Xiaoran said, “I can’t be sure! At least I tried! I made a bet with Ma Baoshan and made an agreement with him in order to help him! I didn’t have the intention of pulling him into the light when I did this. I just wanted to help him if I could! No matter the outcome, at least if I do it, I won’t have any regrets and won’t have a guilty conscience!”

“Husband, not everything in this world necessarily has a result. There are many things that can be done, but no one knows what kind of impact it will have. However, at least after doing it, I feel at ease and can continue my life with a clear conscience!”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he didn’t say anything else.

It seemed that their conversation didn’t have any substantial impact, but some changes had been made after this subtle influence.

In the past, Luo Cheng would think about what his goal was in everything he did.

He always had to have a goal.

However, when he saw what Li Xiaoran had done today, he suddenly realized, “Some things had to be done, even if he couldn’t achieve his goal, just like how he saved Xiang Yanghong back then. At that time, did he have any ulterior motive? No!”

At this moment, Ma Baoshan, who had gambled with Li Xiaoran, went home heavy-hearted.

Even though he would be blamed by his family when he returned home, Ma Baoshan still didn’t regret it.

However, after agreeing to such a promise, Ma Baoshan felt uneasy.

At this moment, he felt a little regretful about his impulsiveness. At that time, he only wanted to be an influential figure in the casino and wasn’t clear-headed at all.

Now that he had calmed down, he felt regretful!
