Chapter 109 I am not a wolf or a tiger, what are you afraid of

If someone offends me, I will definitely fight back.

Baili Feng showed a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth, and his expression became gloomy: "I told you that you are sharp-tongued, and it is true. Su He, don't think about angering me. Even if the prince ascends the throne in the future, I am still a vassal king. It is as easy to crush you and the Su family as playing with mud!"

Su He frowned slightly and replied in a deep voice: "The second prince is worshipped by the people, so he shouts and kills the people like this? No wonder, the prince has the hearts of the people, but you, nothing."

"You..."

"So the madam is here? It took me a while to find you."

A soft and cold voice echoed in the ear. Lu Huaihe stepped over and walked in front of Su He with a spring breeze and a smile. He naturally embraced her and asked in a low voice: "Didn't you say you would come back after visiting? Why did you take so long?"

"I..."

Seeing him, Su He, who had been tense, finally let down her guard. Her eyes were bright and red due to anger, like jade soaked in clear water.

Lu Huaihe rubbed her little face with pity, stretched out his hand to relax his frowning brows, and said in a clear voice: "The Second Prince is not a good person. You have reason to be afraid. With me by your side, he dare not offend you."

"When am I not a good person? Lu Yuan, is there anything wrong with your eyes? And why is she afraid?"

Baili Feng was getting more and more confused about Lu Huaihe. If he doesn't want to marry, then don't marry. What's wrong with being alone? Life is so short, what can't be lived? Why does he have to marry a woman to annoy him?

Lu Huaihe raised his eyebrows and looked at her, then explained gently: "The Second Prince has always had a bad reputation in the capital. My wife is timid and afraid of trouble. She is most afraid of trouble. Naturally, she is afraid of you."

This, this, this... what's the difference between this and not explaining?

Baili Feng rolled his eyes, determined to gain the upper hand in the argument: "In the dead of night, your wife went to the prison alone to visit her ex-husband. How can this prince feel that she is not innocent at all?"

"Really? In my opinion, my wife is nostalgic for the old relationship, and she values ​​friendship and loyalty, not heartless." Lu Huaihe raised his eyebrows slightly, and his tone was deliberately prolonged and slow, and his hands around Su He's waist tightened a little.

For some reason, Su He felt inexplicably guilty when she heard him comforting her.

She and Lu Yanxiu were innocent, but it was not easy to deny coming here late at night, and she had not informed him in advance.

Su He sighed secretly, a little worried about how to explain to Lu Huaihe later.

Baili Feng was completely mad: "Lu Yuan, did you get kicked in the head by a donkey?"

That woman was a second-married woman, why was she so strange?

Lu Huaihe answered casually: "Maybe the second prince is the donkey."

"You!"

Su He smiled softly with his hands covering his mouth.

Baili Feng was the least wronged person to be embarrassed in front of Lu Huaihe. Who made him so bad that the old ladies on the street would spit on him? He

spent money like water, robbed young girls, went in and out of brothels openly... and there were many other trivial things that were not recorded.

No wonder.

"It's late at night, and my wife is afraid of the cold, so I'll take my leave now."

Lu Huaihe didn't stay here any longer, and took Su He to get on the carriage back to Li Garden. When he passed the seat where Baili Feng had sat, he wiped it with disdain.

Pei Xia also got on the carriage under the attention of the guards.

After sitting in the carriage, Su He secretly looked at Lu Huaihe's expression, and seeing that he was nothing unusual, he moved his lips and wanted to explain anxiously: "Actually, there is nothing between me and Lu Yanxiu..."

"If I came later, Baili Feng would definitely demonstrate in front of you."

People like him, who didn't win a seat in the court, always make up for it somewhere else.

Su He lowered his eyes: "I'm not afraid of him."

Lu Huaihe turned his eyes away and asked slowly: "If he really wants to kill, how confident are you that you can escape in such an empty place?"

"I..."

Su He couldn't say, nor could he predict.

There are thousands of ways to kill and cover up. When Baili Feng goes crazy, she might... have no chance.

"Ah He, I will never speculate about you with malice." Lu Huaihe's lips twitched slightly, and he continued slowly: "You should also believe that I have the ability to protect you. If you have any private matters to deal with in the future, don't avoid me."

Su He was stunned, lowered his head and was silent for a few seconds, and nodded.

Warmth covered his hand.

"I'm not a wolf or a tiger, what are you afraid of?"

Lu Huaihe's fingertips rubbed back and forth on the back of her hand, and there seemed to be some helplessness in the pauses.

Su He blinked her eyelashes, but did not answer, quietly listening to the sound of the wheels driving back to Li Garden.

The day of the prince's personal trial arrived.

Liu brought the servants of the Lu Mansion to wait outside the Dali Temple early. On the way, she saw Lu Yanxiu being escorted in. Her old eyes were filled with tears, and she wiped them again and again.

Lu Yanxiu could only glance at them from a distance. He felt a little uneasy when he didn't see Liu Qiuqiu. Fortunately, Yier and Jiaoer were in the crowd, waving to him excitedly.

In the solemn and dignified court, Crown Prince Baili Jun sat solemnly, until he saw Lu Yanxiu being brought up, his expression changed a little.

Lu Huaihe assisted in the trial, sitting at the side, with a slightly gloomy expression, and the dark blue official uniform on him made people look awe-inspiring.

"Who is here?" Baili Jun asked in a hurry.

Lu Yanxiu knelt on the ground and replied fearfully: "My name is Lu Yanxiu."

"Is the Lu Mansion in Yunshui Lane your home?"

"...It is my mansion."

"I heard that a witchcraft item that curses His Majesty was found in your mansion. Do you have anything to say?"

Lu Yanxiu explained hurriedly: "Your Highness! I was wronged. I don't know anything about that thing! Your Majesty is diligent in his work and loves the people. He is kind and forgiving. I admire him so much. How could he find a way to set a curse?"

Baili Jun frowned: "Since it was found in your mansion, I think it was set by someone in your mansion. As the head of the family, you should take responsibility."

"Prince! I am wronged!"

Lu Yanxiu shouted and cried out for injustice, but was silenced by Bailijun's bang. Then he heard him say in a cold voice: "Everyone knows that the emperor has been ill for a long time. What he hates most is the magic of witchcraft. If you want to get rid of the crime today, you must present the real culprit in the court, so that I can explain to the emperor!"

"Your humble servant... Your humble servant doesn't know." How could Lu Yanxiu know who hid it secretly? Maybe it was a prank by the children?

Lu Huaihe stared at him and asked: "Did you find any suspicious people in the mansion?"

Lu Yanxiu shook his head. He never cared about the people or things around him.

"Your Highness! I have something to report!"

Outside the hall, Liu came forward with a cane. Lu Yanxiu didn't know why she came out, so he quickly urged her, "Grandma, what are you doing? Get out of here quickly?"

But Liu said, "Get out? If I get out, who will ask for justice for you?"

"Grandma..."
