Chapter 188 It’s not Xiangying, it’s you with the pockmarked face
Lu Panchu saw the medicine on the table at a glance.
She immediately showed a satisfied look.
"He must have gone out for something, but luckily he didn't forget to prepare the medicine for me."
Lu Panchu picked it up and drank it all up without hesitation.
The effect of the medicine takes effect quickly.
It was only three minutes before she started to feel dizzy.
"What's going on... I feel dizzy."
Not only that, her heartbeat was getting faster and faster, as if it was about to jump out of her chest.
My cheeks started to turn red and my legs started to tremble.
"Ah..." Lu Panchu fell to the ground and screamed.
She originally wanted to see Xiangying for a facial mask, so she didn't let her maid accompany her.
She was lying on the ground, her eyes were blurry and her red lips were gasping for breath. She wanted to call for help, but no sound came out.
Lu Panchu closed his eyes and fainted.
Someone opened the door, picked her up and put her on Xiangying's bed.
The sky gradually darkened.
There was clinking of glasses in the front yard, and in the banquet hall, the laughter of Governor Lu could be heard.
He sat on the right hand side of the Sixth Prince. "Thanks to His Highness the Sixth Prince for being in charge of Meicheng and helping me alleviate the famine crisis, I offer a toast to the Sixth Prince."
After Lu Taishou finished speaking, all the other generals raised their glasses and said, "I would like to toast the Sixth Prince!"
The Sixth Prince was wearing a gilded purple robe and smiling with his narrow eyes.
He gently waved his folding fan and said, "Grandmaster Lu, I am sorry for the trouble. My father is worried about the world, and I am only here to relieve him."
As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes and looked at Jie Chen.
"Why isn't Deputy General Jie holding the cup? Does he have something against me?"
Xie Chen sat coldly behind the desk. Cao Ming, who was standing beside him, was a burly man with thick hair, forming a sharp contrast with Xie Chen, who was as cold as jade.
He nodded slightly and raised his dark eyes.
"I have an escort mission and cannot drink."
Behind him stood the Skinny Monkey and the Sour Scholar, both of them with their arms folded, standing like military generals.
The Sixth Prince sneered: "The governor hosted a banquet, but you came but refused to drink. It's obvious that you are dissatisfied with us."
After saying this, he looked at the governor Lu and said, "Lord Lu, seeing Deputy General Jie is like this, shouldn't we try to persuade him?"
Lu Hong was named again and was forced to stand between the two princes. He was really confused.
He didn't want to offend the Sixth Prince because he now had the highest prestige.
He didn't dare to offend the Tenth Prince. After all, the Emperor was very concerned about this prince.
However, under the threat of the Sixth Prince's gaze, Governor Lu stood up silently and looked in the direction of Jie Chen.
"Deputy General Xie, it's just one drink, it won't be a big deal."
Xie Chen glanced at him, his expressionless and calm eyes fell on the Sixth Prince.
"Most of the people sitting here have the task of escorting prisoners. Drinking is against military rules. If I don't drink, you don't need to persuade me. But if something goes wrong, don't blame me for not reminding you."
After saying that, Xie Chen picked up his sword and stood up suddenly.
The Sixth Prince frowned: "Where are you going!?"
Xie Chen said, "The food is disgusting, go out and get some fresh air."
He walked away, and the Sour Scholar and the Skinny Monkey followed him.
The Sixth Prince smashed his wine glass: "How outrageous!"
But he couldn't do anything to Jie Chen openly. If his father knew about it, he would definitely be unhappy.
Cao Ming was his man, and he cupped his hands and said, "Deputy General Jie is so disrespectful to Your Highness, so they should reduce the food and fodder for their escort team."
The surrounding generals echoed.
One of them said, "What Supervisor Cao said makes perfect sense. Meicheng is suffering from famine right now, and all our teams are short of food. Since Deputy General Jie has his own rules, Your Highness should stop caring about him. I believe that even if the Emperor asks about it, it will be Deputy General Jie's fault."
The Sixth Prince had this intention long ago.
He just wanted to withhold all of Jie Chen's food and make all of them go on the journey hungry.
At this moment, he pretended to frown and disagree, but as more and more people agreed, he said, "It's not that I favor one over the other. In fact, all escort teams are the same in my eyes."
"But the situation is special now. We must first provide food and grass for the important troops. Cao Ming and his men are escorting the generals of the Western Zhou Dynasty. If the soldiers don't have enough food, how can they have the energy to intimidate the prisoners?"
"Deputy General Jie is in charge of women, so naturally he should give way to them."
Everyone raised their glasses and shouted, "Your Highness is wise!"
The Sixth Prince smiled, drank a glass of wine, and turned to look at Governor Lu who had a complicated expression on his face.
"Sir Governor, what do you think of my proposal?"
"Okay... okay, I'll listen to Your Highness." Lu Hong sighed in his heart.
What if I don't listen? The most important thing for a subject is obedience.
The Sixth Prince drank two more cups, and Yan Jing coughed lightly.
This was the secret code they agreed upon, which meant that Yan Jing had made all the arrangements for General Xiangying.
The Sixth Prince immediately stood up, pretending to be drunk, declined Lu Hong's offer to send someone to support him, and walked away holding Yan Jing's hand.
After leaving the house, the Sixth Prince lowered his voice and asked, "Everything has been arranged. Is she fainted?"
I heard that Xiangying knows martial arts, so don't move around and kick him to hurt him. He doesn't like rabbits that hurt people.
Yan Jing nodded: "Don't worry, Your Highness, everything is ready."
The Sixth Prince chuckled, a cold light rising in his narrow eyes.
"Just now, Jie Chen was so presumptuous with me, but he didn't know that his woman would soon become my woman. I really want to know how exciting his expression would be."
The two avoided the Lu family's servants and came to Xiangying's courtyard.
The Sixth Prince frowned: "Didn't you say to carry the person to my place?"
Yan Jing explained, "There are so many people coming and going in the mansion tonight. If we carry it over, I'm afraid it will be too conspicuous and someone will see it."
The Sixth Prince nodded, thinking that it made sense.
He walked in, and the room was filled with a strange...smell of food.
What's going on?
Does Xiangying have delicious meals every day?
The room was too dark, but he could vaguely see a slender figure lying on the bed with her back to him.
Yan Jing closed the door behind him. The Sixth Prince walked slowly to the bed and sat down.
His hand wearing the jade ring directly touched "Xiangying's" thigh.
"I don't like to force people to do things," he sneered, "It's strange that you are the eldest princess, and you are Xie Chen's person. Although I don't like to force people to do things, I like to take away people's wishes. Don't worry, I will treat you gently."
As he said this, he turned the man over.
The other person just woke up, rubbed his eyes, and asked in a daze: "Who is talking? Xiao Cui, is that you? My head hurts so much..."
The woman was lying flat on her back, illuminated by a ray of moonlight from the window.
The Sixth Prince widened his eyes, staggered to his feet, and stepped back repeatedly.
"Why is it you have such a pockmarked face!"
When Lu Panchu heard this question, his whole body felt hot, his legs went numb, and he became a little unclear.
However, when she heard the words "pockmarked face", it completely revealed her inferiority complex and aroused her long-suppressed temper.
"You dare to scold me?" Her vision was blurred, and she stared at the man in front of her, "You want to die, don't you? Do you know who I am?"
The Sixth Prince's face turned cold and he turned to leave. However, the door was locked from the outside?!
"Yan Jing! Yan Jing, open the door! You damned old thing, how dare you frame me?"
He suddenly became aware of footsteps behind him.
When he turned around, he saw Lu Panchu stumbling over, a hairpin still in his hand.
"I told you not to scold me!" She stabbed down fiercely, but she had little strength and the Sixth Prince grabbed her wrist.
She suddenly crashed into his arms and let out a moan.
The man’s body…
Lu Panchu began to rub unconsciously, and the Sixth Prince was horrified.
Because of course he knew what was going on. Lu Panchu drank Xiangying's medicine and it was about to have an attack on him!
"Get out of here!" The Sixth Prince tried his best to protect his innocence.
Because defiling Xiangying was a small matter, she was a princess of a fallen country and no one would stand up for her.
Lu Panchu is Lu Hong's only daughter and his treasure.
After all, Lu Hong was an official of a state. If this matter were to get out, his reputation in the court would be ruined.
