Chapter 108: One Advisor, Gone, Gone
In the past, when they were at the other courtyard, Yun Qing would always bring a lot of goodies to visit Qiqi and the two children. The two of them even called each other aunt and sister-in-law in private. Even when Qiqi entered the mansion, Yun Qing also strongly supported her behind the scenes. How could it be...
Lu Yanxiu knew that Yun Qing had a hard life in the Li family and was waiting to give birth to a child in order to win their good regard. Now that the child is gone, won’t the Li family look down on her even more?
"Where are Yi'er and Jiao'er? Where is grandma? Is nothing wrong with them?"
"The old lady is fine and will not die yet. As for Lu Yi and Lu Jiao, your proud children, will they be blessed by someone and live in prosperity and wealth from now on? Or will they disappear forever? I can't say for sure!"
Baili Feng is a man with an unpredictable temperament. Who knows what he would think when he finds out that he has a living child?
Could the royal family, who are so high and mighty, allow a prostitute to give birth to a child?
When Lu Yanxiu brought Liu Qiuqiu and her son into the mansion, he decorated the place with lanterns and was very open and aboveboard, wishing to announce to the world that he had twins. If the truth came out, Baili Feng might not be disgusted.
Lu Yanxiu continued to ask without giving up: "What do you mean?"
"I'm giving you some pointers. It depends on whether you are smart or not."
Su He didn't intend to tell him the truth directly.
Sometimes, the facts that are revealed with one's own hands can be even more cruel.
"Oh, by the way, your youngest son died. You know about this, right?" She pretended to suddenly remember it, and spoke casually, as if she was talking about a worthless cat or dog.
Of course Lu Yanxiu knew about this.
When Mingchun died in prison before, the jailer told him the reason.
"That slut Mingchun! Poor my son, he has no luck!"
Even though Ji'er was gone, Lu Yanxiu wasn't that sad.
Thinking of the black spots on his body that could not be cured and would have to accompany him as he grew up, affecting his whole life... Lu Yanxiu felt that what was more important was how people in the capital would laugh at him?
Su He sneered: "The Lu family is a place without blessings."
The dungeon was cold and gloomy, and the surroundings seemed even darker and colder.
Su He achieved the purpose of this trip. He was too lazy to stay any longer and left with Pei Xia.
As soon as she left, Lu Zhili, who had been hiding outside the dungeon, came to Lu Yanxiu, and his originally high-spirited face now showed a few more layers of vicissitudes.
"What did Suho tell you?"
Lu Yanxiu snorted coldly: "That bitch! How dare you insult me!"
Didn't she come here specially to insult people? Why did she come to give him sweet-scented osmanthus cakes?
Lu Yanxiu kicked the osmanthus cake on the plate to the ground, as if he was enjoying humiliating Su He.
"The prince will interrogate you personally, do you have any countermeasures?" Lu Zhili was too lazy to watch his clumsy moves. The most important thing right now was to save his life.
Lu Yanxiu shook his head. He was in a passive position and could not think of a good countermeasure. Moreover, witchcraft has been a serious crime since ancient times. How could he escape from the punishment imposed by the emperor?
"Every problem has a solution."
Lu Yanxiu looked at Lu Zhili, "What... do you want to do?"
Lu Zhili was silent for a few seconds and replied, "In court, you only need to deny it. I will take care of the rest."
Lu Yanxiu was half-believing and half-doubting. He believed in the determination between the brothers, but doubted whether he had such ability.
Although Lu Zhili has the support of Baili Feng, the Lu family has long lost its value. He is of noble status, so why should he wade into this muddy water?
"Don't worry, big brother. You will be safe. We all will be."
His words gave Lu Yanxiu some reassurance, but he was really curious about how he could get out of this situation.
After walking out of the dungeon, Su He tightened the cloak on his shoulders. Pei Xia looked up at the night sky and saw that the wind was rising rapidly. She reminded him casually, "Madam, it looks like it's going to rain. We have to walk faster."
"it is good……"
Su He's answer was still stuck in his throat when he stopped moving.
Wherever she looked, she saw Baili Feng sitting in the coachman's seat, holding the reins in his hand, staring at her calmly yet dangerously.
Pei Xia didn't recognize his identity yet, and immediately scolded him: "Where did you come from, you brat? How dare you ride in Li Yuan's carriage? Be careful if you get it dirty, you can't afford the compensation!"
Before Baili Feng could answer, several guards ran out from behind the carriage and surrounded Su He and Pei Xia.
Pei Xia was frightened when he first saw this, but he still bravely stood in front of Su He and asked in a trembling voice: "Who... who are you?"
Baili Feng jumped off the carriage, put his hands behind his back, and with a casual glance, the guards rushed up and arrested Pei Xia.
"What is the Second Prince doing?" Su He asked coldly.
When Pei Xia heard that the man was actually the prince, he trembled even more violently.
Baili Feng raised his eyebrows and said deliberately: "You are such an unruly servant. You teach this prince a lesson like this. Don't you think you can be punished?"
"Come on, slap the mouth!"
"No!"
Su He quickly came to Pei Xia, pushed away the guards beside him, stood in front of her and raised his voice slightly: "She is mine. If the Second Prince wants to punish her, why not punish me?"
"She is just a slave, and this prince has no way to punish her? Someone, please ask Madam Lu to leave. I will punish this person today!"
Baili Feng narrowed his eyes, seeming to be a little angry.
Su He hugged Pei Xia tightly, not letting go at all. Seeing her behavior, the guards had no choice but to look back at Baili Feng helplessly.
This is Lu Huaihe's wife? If anything goes wrong, won't they still bear the consequences?
Baili Feng saw that Su He did not move at all and was protecting a lowly maid like this, and suddenly laughed, "A maid is so important to you? Madam Lu is really a sentimental person? This prince is curious, if something happened to the Su family, would Madam Lu be so anxious?"
When the Su family was mentioned, Su He's eyelashes trembled, and there was a hint of anger in his eyes as he looked at Baili Feng.
"Why did the Su family block the Second Prince's path?"
Baili Feng shrugged and said casually: "You are blocking my way."
There have been rumors in the capital that Lu Zhili is his adviser, but Su He still framed him for cheating and brought people to Lu's mansion to search for witchcraft items that cursed the emperor. He has interfered again and again. Isn't he just getting in the way?
Su He dragged out the last syllable of "oh" and laughed at him lightly: "Is there no one around the Second Prince? A counselor without fame and background, just gone, so why are you so reluctant to let him go? I have never thought of blocking the Second Prince's path. It was the Lu family who betrayed me first. If I don't fight back, it would seem that I am easy to bully. Isn't revenge what the Second Prince always likes to do?"
When Lu Zhili was in trouble for the cheating case, Baili Feng quickly warned her. She now keeps the cold arrow at the bottom of the box to warn herself.
