Chapter 168: Someone was killed!
"I would like to toast you all!"
Fu Hengzhi drank the wine in one gulp, and everyone followed suit.
"Besides my birthday today, there is one more thing."
Fu Hengzhi then looked at Lu Qinghuan beside him. Lu Qinghuan naturally stretched out his hand, thinking that he would hold her, but Fu Hengzhi turned his head away and continued to speak: "In ten days, it will be the day when this palace and Qinghuan will be happy.
, welcome you all.”
Everyone has different looks.
"The fifth prince treats my sister so well. He even gave so many betrothal gifts a few days ago. They are so dazzling that others are envious! We can hardly fit them in at the door of our Duke's mansion."
Lu Yunsheng suddenly spoke.
Lu Qinghuan's face sank.
Unexpectedly, she actually came up with the matter directly!
"Your Highness..." Lu Qinghuan's voice was soft, hoping that Fu Hengzhi could help her hide it and give her some face.
However, Fu Hengzhi looked indifferent: "What dowry gift? This palace has not sent any dowry gift to the Duke's Mansion. Could it be that the third lady got it wrong?"
Lu Qinghuan's face was as pale as snow.
She is his future princess, how could he not give her face like this?
"That's really strange. My sister is making such a big deal about how much the fifth prince values her. Maybe I got it wrong!"
After Lu Yunsheng finished speaking, he drank from the wine glass.
"Your Highness, I..." Lu Qinghuan wanted to explain, but Fu Hengzhi raised his hand to interrupt her: "I hope that in the future, you will not rely on me to show off your power."
Lu Qinghuan was completely embarrassed by reprimanding her in front of so many people.
Lu Bo, who was hiding in the crowd, wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
The ministers around him looked at him with ridicule and contempt.
Lu Qinghuan secretly glared at Lu Yunsheng and had to respond: "I know, I just don't want others to look down on me."
Fu Hengzhi didn't care what she thought, he just waved his hand and asked Yao Xian to take her to the backyard.
Lu Qinghuan realized that he was embarrassed by her.
Reluctantly, she followed Yao Xian to the backyard. After much hesitation, she still asked the question.
"Yao Xian, does His Highness want to win over Lu Yunsheng?"
Otherwise, how could she be embarrassed in front of so many people!
There was no expression on Yao Xian's face: "My subordinates don't understand His Highness's thoughts."
"How could you not understand? You have been with His Highness for so long. I will be the imperial concubine in the future. Why can't you tell me?"
"Second Miss, you should ask His Highness yourself about this matter."
"Yao Xian! If you disobey me, I am your master!" Lu Qinghuan jumped angrily.
"Not yet!"
Yao Xian glanced at her and said angrily: "Second Miss is acting bad now, why not think more about how to deal with the Queen and the Seventh Prince in the future! After all, they sent you here."
Lu Qinghuan gritted his teeth tightly, feeling angry in his heart.
At the banquet, there was singing and dancing, and it looked peaceful on the surface.
Fu Peifeng glanced at several ministers.
Then someone came forward to look for trouble.
"Fifth Prince, I wonder how your leg condition is doing?"
Fu Hengzhi's eyes trembled slightly, he put down his wine glass and said, "It's not bad."
"The fifth prince has a physical disability, so he should put his body first and don't covet things that don't belong to him out of impatience."
Fu Hengzhi's face was gloomy for a moment, then he showed a smile: "That's right."
Even Lu Yunsheng couldn't listen anymore and frowned tightly.
It was clearly Fu Peifeng who came with his men to humiliate the fifth prince.
"Don't mind your own business." Fu Nanxiao reminded in a low voice.
Lu Yunsheng glanced at him: "You need to tell me."
She drank a glass of wine and turned around, but there was no trace of Ah Qiao.
"Where's Ah Qiao? Have you seen Ah Qiao?"
Jinzhan shook his head: "I was here just now."
"I'll go find her!"
Lu Yunsheng got up and ran towards the backyard.
She remembered that Ah Qiao had just said that he was going to find some delicious fruits for her.
I must have gone to the dining room in the backyard.
Fu Nanxiao was worried and quickly got up and followed.
Jinzhan also wanted to go, but Fu Nanxiao pushed him back with a palm.
"Sit down, it's none of your business."
Jinzhan:......
Lu Yunsheng ran to the backyard and asked around about A Qiao's whereabouts.
First I went to the dining room and then to the garden, but there was no trace of Aqiao.
Until, someone in the house shouted loudly: "Killing! Killing!"
Lu Yunsheng subconsciously felt something was wrong and ran in that direction.
It was a remote courtyard, which was full of fallen leaves and very dilapidated.
In the courtyard, Aqiao looked at the corpse on the ground with trepidation. Next to her stood the first grader of junior high school.
The knife in Chu Yi's hand was dripping with blood.
"Ah Qiao!"
Lu Yunsheng ran over, and when Ah Qiao saw it was her, she ran over with red eyes and hugged Lu Yunsheng's arm tightly: "Girl, I was scared to death just now."
"What's wrong?"
"I just wanted to go to the dining room to get some fruit for you, but someone covered my mouth and dragged me into the yard with the intention of doing evil to me. That person was so strong that I couldn't beat him. I came out to fight with him on the first day of the new year.
...Just...killed...by accident."
"As long as you're okay."
Lu Yunsheng comforted Ah Qiao, shook her hand, and then walked forward to see the dead man.
The man is tall and rough, like a specially hired thug with good skills.
"In the first year of junior high school, how is his skill?"
"Back to my lord, this man must have practiced martial arts for several years. When my subordinates fought with him, they found that he was very strong."
"Dispose of the body."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Nanxiao strode in.
Lu Yunsheng frowned, subconsciously wanting Chu Yi to leave, but behind him was Fu Hengzhi, who was rushing over.
Someone reported to him that something happened in the backyard, so he came over quickly.
Seeing that people were killed, his eyes darkened: "Miss Third, what is going on!"
Lu Yunsheng pulled Ah Qiao behind him, cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness, Fifth Prince, Ah Qiao went to the dining room to get some fruit, but he was kidnapped here and wanted to do something evil. While Ah Qiao was struggling with him, he accidentally killed him.
Your Highness, shouldn’t you give me an explanation for this matter?”
This must have been done deliberately.
Fu Hengzhi looked at Chu Yi who was standing aside: "This is..."
Lu Yunsheng was shocked.
People can't let people know that she has such power.
Just as he was about to speak, Fu Nanxiao said first, "He was sent by the king to protect Yun Sheng and the others."
Lu Yunsheng raised his eyes and looked at Fu Nanxiao in surprise, never expecting that he would stand up and speak for her.
As soon as he opens his mouth, no one will doubt him.
When Fu Hengzhi heard this, he called Yao Xian.
"Yao Xian, go check what's going on."
"Your Highness, when I came here, my subordinates had already found out clearly that this matter... was done by Miss Lu Er! She also found this person!"
Lu Qinghuan......
Lu Yunsheng clenched his fingers.
