Chapter 92 The Second Prince Sends Gifts? No! No!

Why is it that Su He's second marriage is so glorious, but I can't even find my marriage?

Why...

The noise in the front hall gradually faded away.

Lu Yanxiu used the excuse of going to the toilet and went deeper and deeper, and came to the study courtyard.

He had been here several times with Su He before, and he had memorized the route by heart.

From time to time, servants walked by on the corridor outside the courtyard, and Lu Yanxiu hid himself beside the rockery. After everyone had left, he quickly walked to the outside of the study, dug out a small mud pit with his bare hands, took out a piece of paper wrapped in blue cloth from his sleeve, and hurriedly covered it with mud. He stood up and stomped on it a few times to make it invisible, then left in a hurry. When he

returned to the hall, the banquet had already begun.

Lu Yanxiu secretly wiped the mud off his hands so that no one could see the clues, and continued to chat and laugh with the guests at the table.

The position was also well arranged.

Su Ronghai was sitting at the upper seat, sitting with several high-ranking court officials, including Lu Huaihe. The lower seat opposite Lu Huaihe corresponded to Lu Yanxiu's position.

The distance is not far, but it seems like there are thousands of mountains and rivers between them.

The Lu in Lu Huaihe has nothing to do with the Lu family.

The princess did not want him to break the bloodline because of her friendship with her late husband, otherwise she would have changed her surname long ago.

Lu Yanxiu tried to get close to him several times, but to no avail.

He clenched the teacup slightly and forced a smile.

Fortunately, she now has the second prince by her side.

Even if Su He married her, what would it matter?

The Su family is about to fall, and Su He will soon be left with nothing.

Before the banquet began, firecrackers rang outside the mansion.

Passers-by were puzzled, why was there such a big fuss on the birthday of the Minister of Rites this year?

There was a lot of noise in the hall, and everyone was drinking happily.

Su He returned to the women's hall with a calm expression. After she sat down, Su Lian noticed that her feet were stained with some dust under the pretext of picking up something.

When the wine was clinking at the table

, the housekeeper ran in from the gate of the mansion and came to Su Ronghai to report: "Master! The second prince is here! And... and brought a lot of soldiers!"

As soon as these words came out, the scene was suddenly quiet.

Everyone in the hall was stunned.

Su Ronghai stood up suspiciously: "The second prince? Is it really him?"

"Absolutely! Those soldiers surrounded us and didn't let us in or out!"

The housekeeper saw the second prince and his men coming from a distance.

Before he could even greet him after approaching, they sent people to surround the Su residence, attracting many onlookers.

Su Ronghai frowned, left the banquet, and was about to go to greet the second prince in person, but he had already walked in briskly.

"Lord Su! How are you?"

"Today is your birthday banquet, how about this prince joining in the fun?"

The young man in his twenties, tall and radiant.

When Rong Guifei was in great favor, Baili Feng was also one of the most handsome young men in the capital. Now he stood in front of the hall, his face was a little gloomy, and his smile was cold.

As soon as he arrived, everyone stood up and knelt. Su Ronghai wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and knelt in front to greet him respectfully: "It is a great honor for our humble residence to have you here, the Second Prince! Everyone who comes is a guest. Please take a seat, Second Prince!"

Baili Feng clapped his hands, and someone immediately presented two boxes of gold behind him.

"I came here in a hurry today and didn't prepare any gifts. After thinking about it, it would be more practical to send two boxes of gold. Lord Su, is that right?" Su

Ronghai hurriedly said, "How can this humble minister feel embarrassed..."

"You can accept the gift from the prince, but why can't you accept the gift from this prince?" He suddenly said, his expression becoming colder and colder.

Su Ronghai was sweating profusely. He was the prince's man, so it was natural for him to accept gifts. But why did the second prince come to join in the fun?

Thinking of being surrounded by officials outside the mansion, he became even more impatient. He subconsciously wanted to ask Su He for help, but a green bamboo screen separated them.

"My father-in-law is not a money-grubber. It's just gold. How can you not see it?"

Lu Huaihe's voice suddenly rang out.

The usually cold voice was like a life-saving straw for Su Ronghai at this moment.

No matter how much the second prince gave him, it was really difficult for him to accept it. How could a minister serve two masters?

Seeing Lu Huaihe, Baili Feng finally calmed down a bit, sat down, crossed his legs and looked at him, with a contemptuous tone: "Lord Su despises my kindness, I guess the prince gave more."

"No, no, I just obey the will of heaven..."

"Pah!"

Before Su Ronghai could explain, the crisp porcelain bowl fell to the ground, and everyone was startled.

Baili Feng sneered: "Lord Su is loyal to the wise monarch and is a wise minister, but how can I hear that you want to support the prince to ascend the throne, but you are secretly doing some tricks behind the scenes, wanting my father to enjoy heaven as soon as possible?"

Everyone present took a breath of cold air.

Cursing the emperor is a great sin that can exterminate nine clans!

"How can the Second Prince say such nonsense?" Su Ronghai questioned fiercely.

Baili Feng didn't take him seriously at all. The Su family was the first battle between him and the crown prince. He wanted to kill a chicken to scare the monkey and let other court officials see.

With an order, the officers and soldiers outside the palace entered the palace with weapons and surrounded everyone.

Lu Yanxiu carefully disappeared in the crowd and ate a few sugar-coated fruits in a good mood.

In the women's hall.

Su Yun and Su Lian looked pale. They ignored the previous conflicts and sat together.

Looking at Su He again, he was not panicked at all, as if he knew something in advance.

Su Yun recalled that she often talked with her father in the study a few days ago. Could it be because of this? If there was any danger, her father would definitely make plans in advance. Why would he make such a fuss on his birthday today? Thinking of this, she calmed down.

"Come here, search for this prince!"

"Don't miss any clues!"

Baili Feng gave the order, and the officers and soldiers immediately started to act.

He took a few bites of food leisurely and waited slowly. When he glanced at the expressions of the people around him, he saw their panic-stricken looks, and he felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction in his heart.

Su Ronghai watched them turn the Su Mansion upside down, especially when he saw the white jade bottle was smashed, his heart broke. Less than

half an incense stick of time had passed.

Those people seemed to know the place, and soon shouted loudly: "Found it, found it!"

An official trotted up to Baili Feng and presented what he found.

A piece of paper was wrapped in a blue cloth.

Baili Feng looked at Su Ronghai with a smug look, and asked knowingly: "Master Su, do you have anything to say?"

"This... where was this found?"

The official replied: "In the soil at the steps of the study. The soil is fresh and it looks

like it has not been dug for a long time." Su Ronghai's legs and feet went limp, and he looked flustered.

Baili Feng laughed particularly wantonly.

He moved his fingers slightly, and opened the note in front of everyone. When he was about to read it, his eyes froze and his voice stopped.
