Chapter 335: Barrier
The atmosphere in the palace was solemn.
When Ding had a miscarriage, the wife of the Ningyuan Marquis ordered her not to spread the news, but the news still leaked out. All the servants in the mansion knew that something had happened in the Ningyuan Marquis's mansion. It was extremely unlucky to have such a thing happen on the day of Chen Lanzhu's wedding. Su Qingwan felt bad too, feeling guilty towards her aunt and Chen Lanzhu, and she hated the person who had played tricks behind her back. If Ding was too weak to keep the baby, it would have been an accident, but it was not an accident.
It would be like looking for a needle in a haystack to investigate. The marriage of the daughter in the marquis's mansion was grand, with many relatives, and Ding had come into contact with many people. No one expected that such a thing would happen. It would have been fine if the people were mixed, as they were all from high-ranking families. The prefect of Kyoto did not dare to investigate it thoroughly.
After Lu Jing's powerful suppression, no one dared to discuss it publicly. This matter would eventually be attributed to the Lu family's family affairs. Su Qingwan was very annoyed. This was the first time she suffered a loss in silence.
If she really did it, she would definitely admit it and take responsibility for it. But unfortunately, it was not her who did it. She hated Lu Feng, so she would only kill Lu Feng and not harm the child. Ding was also innocent, so she was not so cruel.
But Li Xueying and the wife of the Marquis of Anping both died because of her. Although her hands were not stained with blood, others firmly believed that it was related to her. Su Qingwan was very angry. Lu Jing sent people to investigate, and she also asked Qingyun to investigate. Qingyun was quite experienced in investigating such matters and was very careful.
However, the Jinyiwei had checked everything and found no clues. Qingyun also found nothing when he checked. Qingyun said, "Miss, the people at Ding's table are all from the Lu family and her relatives. We have questioned almost everyone who has had contact with her and found no one suspicious. Because the wife of the Marquis of Anping just passed away, the Li family did not come to the wedding banquet at the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion. The Marquis' Mansion has a close relationship with you, and some people who are close to the Li family did not come either. This possibility can be ruled out."
Su Qingwan's face was solemn. "Apart from the people from Anping Marquis's Mansion, who else would dare to plot against me?"
"Maybe it was the Ding family who offended someone, or it was Lu Feng who offended someone!" Qingyun felt it was too outrageous.
"What a coincidence! They are targeting me!" Su Qingwan frowned, extremely unhappy, "The Royal Guards may not investigate thoroughly."
"Miss, I understand!" Qingyun said in a deep voice, "It's just that, Miss... Will the prince care about Lu Feng's words? After he came back today, he locked himself in the study and didn't say a word."
Su Qingwan also felt uncomfortable. She had no way to deal with the matter. She knew that Lu Feng was trying to sow discord, but she couldn't do anything about it. Lu Feng also hit Lu Jing's sore spot.
They have always had a good relationship as brothers. Lu Jing knows her and knows that she has hatred in her heart. Will he suspect that she killed Ding's child? Will he mind that she has hatred in her heart? She has not returned to the Lu family with him until now. Is he also in a difficult situation?
"Has he had dinner?"
Qingyun shook his head. Su Qingwan sat quietly for a long time and asked the kitchen to prepare some of Lu Jing's favorite food. She also prepared some fruits herself. The weather was hot and no one was in a good mood when such a thing happened on such a happy day. Su Qingwan was so angry that she wanted to kill someone. Lu Jing would be in an even worse mood. Lu Shaoqing, Lin and Lu Feng would all scold him for forgetting his relatives for the sake of a beautiful woman.
She is the trouble and he is the bastard!
To the family, he is indeed a bastard!
Su Qingwan felt a slight pain in her heart. She pushed open the door of the study and saw him sitting behind the desk in silence. She felt extremely heartbroken. The two looked at each other in silence.
Su Qingwan came over with a food box, put it on the warm couch, opened the window and turned on the light. Lu Jing let out a breath, walked over and suddenly hugged her from behind.
Su Qingwan felt a little sad. She felt that she needed to explain, "Lu Jing, I didn't harm Ding's child."
