Chapter 354 Who do you want to harm with the help of the lady?
"That's the Second Imperial Concubine. It's very strange that she came to talk to me. Did she come to tell me on purpose that this is the Third Imperial Concubine's cat?" Lu Xiang said.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong.
A cold light flashed across Lu Xiang's inky black eyes, causing a shudder like lightning.
"Second sister-in-law, give me the cat. I want to ask her what she wants to do." Chu Jinyan said in a cold voice.
"Wait a minute." Lu Xiang shook his head and said, "Don't alert her yet. I want to know what she is going to do."
Letting Chu Jinyan speak up for her, wouldn't that be a clear signal to the Second Imperial Concubine that something was wrong between them? And if she told the Second Prince about it, wouldn't she become a moving target again?
Besides, what difference would it make if he asked clearly? The Second Imperial Concubine was listed in the Royal Jade Disc and was a member of the Royal Family. Only the Emperor, the Empress and the Queen Mother could punish her. Chu Jinyan could not do anything to her.
"Can you handle it?" Chu Jinyan asked.
Lu Xiang smiled and blinked: "I didn't dare to take the risk, but now I see you are here. If I can't stand it, Your Highness, remember to save me."
When Chu Jinyan heard this, he suddenly felt relaxed all over, and it seemed as if fireworks were falling in his mind.
He chuckled softly, looking at Lu Xiang with eyes full of doting and tenderness: "Okay."
At this time, voices were heard, gradually becoming clearer, and it sounded like someone was coming this way.
"Your Highness, someone is coming. I'm leaving first."
Lu Xiang quickly stood up and said.
Chu Jinyan's good mood was immediately ruined, and he nodded reluctantly: "If you have any problem, ask Ah Man to come to me immediately."
"Okay."
Lu Xiang nodded quickly and ran away holding the white cat.
As soon as her figure disappeared from the intersection, she saw several young ladies walking towards the pavilion chatting and laughing. When they saw Chu Jinyan sitting there, they couldn't help but be startled.
"It's the eighth prince." someone exclaimed.
As this voice rang out, Chu Jinyan's handsome brows frowned deeply.
Everyone stepped forward and saluted: "Greetings to His Highness the Eighth Prince."
Chu Jinyan stood up and walked away without looking around, almost with the words "I'm not happy" carved on his forehead.
"The Eighth Prince is so cold and his aura is so scary that I don't even dare to look up." One person said fearfully, covering his chest.
"But His Highness the Eighth Prince is so handsome."
"Yes, yes, he is more handsome than the other princes."
…
Lu Xiang held the white cat, thought for a while, and returned to the pavilion.
Many more guests arrived, and there were more than a few people in the waterside pavilion. Most of them surrounded the Second Imperial Concubine and the Sixth Princess. The pregnant Sixth Princess was like the moon surrounded by everyone.
"Miss Lu San, please come in and sit down." Someone saw Lu Xiang and smiled at her in a friendly manner.
However, as the girl's voice fell, Lu Xiang's heart suddenly shook.
wrong!
The white cat in her arms struggled violently, not at all like it had just been. The cat even scratched the back of Lu Xiang's hand, and she instinctively wanted to let go because of the pain. However, when she thought of her guess, she held it tightly again.
"Ms. Zhao, I'm really sorry. I suddenly have a stomachache. I'll come to see you later." Lu Xiang smiled apologetically at the lady, then ran away. He looked very anxious.
Miss Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then her expression became indescribable.
This Miss Lu San really doesn't know how to be tactful.
Forget it, she was just saying it out of politeness. Whether she wants to go to the toilet or come over to sit and chat with them has nothing to do with me.
Lu Xiang didn't stop until he felt the white cat had calmed down.
Ah Man saw that Lu Xiang looked upset and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?"
"There's something wrong with this cat." Lu Xiang pursed his lips tightly and looked down at Tuanzi, with a sharp look in his eyes. "As soon as I walked to the entrance of the waterside pavilion, the cat suddenly struggled violently. It was extremely violent. If I didn't hold it tightly, I'm afraid it would rush out. I guess there must be something in there that affects it."
Once it was away from the water pavilion, it became docile again.
Ah Man looked at Tuanzi, who was nestling in Lu Xiang's arms and licking his paws, and his face darkened slightly: "There are so many people in the waterside pavilion, but I don't know who the Second Imperial Concubine wants to harm through Miss?"
Lu Xiang stared in deep thought for a while, then she suddenly said, "Sixth Princess."
"What?" Ah Man was startled and looked at Lu Xiang in disbelief: "How did Miss know?"
"In the waterside pavilion, the most distinguished people are the Second Imperial Concubine, the Third Imperial Concubine, the Sixth Princess, and Concubine Xu. Tuanzi is the Third Imperial Concubine's favorite pet. Even if I accidentally hurt the Third Imperial Concubine, she will not use it to punish me."
"As for the Second Imperial Concubine, if she gets hurt, at most I'll be reprimanded. But if Tuanzi pounces out of impatience, its mad appearance will surely scare everyone. The Sixth Princess has been trying to take care of her pregnancy, and it's finally stable. If Tuanzi pounces on her, she will definitely be frightened. If it's serious, the Sixth Princess will fall or bump into something because of the fright, and the baby may not be saved. Once this crime is confirmed, I will be severely punished by the Emperor, and even the Empress may not be able to save me."
The child of the Sixth Princess is considered half-royal heir. If he is charged with the crime of murdering the royal heir, he will be skinned alive if he doesn't die.
After listening to Lu Xiang's analysis, Ah Man was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his back.
If someone confronted her with a knife and wanted to fight her, Ah Man would rush over without saying a word.
But even if she had two more heads, it would not be enough to deal with all these conspiracies and plots.
"Miss, what should we do now? I will go and find the Eighth Prince."
Lu Xiang was speechless for a while. The Second Princess had plotted against her like this, and she was absolutely unwilling to pretend that nothing had happened. However, in order to fight back at the Third Prince's residence, she had to have a foolproof plan. Otherwise, if things went wrong, the Third Prince and Chu Jinyan would fall out, and that would be a loss.
"Miss," Ah Man called again when she saw Lu Xiang didn't say anything.
"Ah Man, wait for me to think about it."
Ah Man nodded in response and stood obediently aside without making a sound, waiting for her young lady to come up with a plan.
In the waterside pavilion, the Second Imperial Concubine clenched her fists in anger, but she was just one step away from victory.
As long as he comes in, Lu Xiang will definitely not be able to escape this situation today.
Stay calm, she must stay calm, there will always be a way for her to get close to the Sixth Princess again.
Even if nothing happened to the Sixth Princess, she was frightened. Even if the grudge was created, the Sixth Princess would definitely not let Lu Xiang go. The more people there were to deal with her, the faster Lu Xiang would die.
Xiao Mansion.
Liu Anyao was leaning on the bed, and a maid was standing behind her, rubbing her forehead. There were ice cubes in the room, and the coolness was refreshing.
She was also invited to the Third Princess' Lotus Banquet, but she suddenly had a headache when she got up early in the morning and did not go.
Shuhua brought the ginseng tea into the room. Liu Anyao took it, took a sip absentmindedly, and said, "I don't know if my second cousin's wife is doing well."
"Madam, please be patient. The Second Imperial Concubine will definitely make Miss Lu suffer this time." Shuhua said, "It's better for Madam not to go. This will catch her off guard and help her get rid of suspicion."
