Chapter 482: Fortunately, we took the initiative
"What did Liu Anhui want to do with you?" Qiao Jingru asked. After a pause, she hesitated and said, "...Is she here to question you about Liu Anyao's matter?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Qiao’s eyes widened and she stared at the two of them without blinking.
Sister-in-law, what you said is quite informative...
Lu Xiang chuckled and told her what happened at the banquet. She then took out a paper bag containing medicine powder and said, "...I just want to ask my sister-in-law for a favor. Please ask the doctor at the clinic tomorrow what medicine this is."
Qiao Jingru took the medicine bag in a daze, swallowed her saliva, and nodded: "Fortunately you took the initiative, otherwise I really wouldn't know how I died."
“Maybe the Ninth Princess was involved in this. First, she used such a difficult piece of music as High Mountains and Flowing Water to embarrass Third Sister and even anger the Emperor, and then she drugged Third Sister. It’s so vicious.” Lu Qiao said indignantly, clenching his fists.
"So Concubine Liu was threatening and intimidating you just now because of Liu Anyao?" Qiao Jingru said.
Lu Xiang nodded: "But it's useless."
Liu Anhui has status and the support of Concubine Shu.
She's not bad either.
Chu Jinyan alone is worth thousands of troops.
"Liu Anyao has been disgraced and brought shame to the Liu family. He has probably become an abandoned child of the Liu family and it will be difficult for him to make a comeback." Qiao Jingru said.
Lu Xiang pursed her lips, a hint of coldness appearing at the corners of her lips: "What I want is that she will never be able to turn things around." And Xiao Muheng.
She really enjoys giving someone a beating when they are down.
Liu Mansion.
The cold wind was howling, the pitch-black night was pressing down heavily, and the air was so oppressive that it made people feel suffocated.
Madam Liu woke up on the way back, but she did not ride in the same carriage with Liu Anyao. As soon as she entered the mansion, she heard that Prime Minister Liu had taken his daughter to the main courtyard, so she quickly broke away from the servants and ran back.
In the room, Liu Anyao kept twisting her body because of the drug. Her eyes were blurry, her cheeks were red and almost bleeding, and she moaned from her slightly open mouth. Her clothes were already in disarray, revealing the bellyband underneath.
Madam Liu felt distressed immediately.
"Yao'er."
She cried out in pain, threw herself on Liu Anyao, and hurriedly pulled her clothes up.
Liu Anyao felt hot inside and wanted to take off all her clothes. How could she let Madam Liu pull her clothes together for her? So she reached out and pulled them open herself. Madam Liu was shocked and angry, and her face looked extremely ugly.
Liu Anyao, who was in a state of confusion and passion, had no idea what she was doing. She only knew that she felt extremely uncomfortable. She twisted her body and cried out that it was hot.
The servants stood in the room anxiously, not knowing what to do.
"Bring some water." Liu Xiang said with a gloomy face.
Soon, a maid came running over with water in her hand and said tremblingly, "Sir, the water is here." "Pour it on."
"Ah?" The old woman was stunned, looked at Madam Liu hesitantly, and said, "Prime Minister, if Miss Wu drinks this basin of cold water, she will definitely catch a cold."
Liu Xiang glared at the old woman and shouted impatiently: "It's already this time, just throw it away when I tell you to."
At this time, are you still thinking about whether you will get sick?
If I don't wake her up immediately, am I going to have to watch her embarrass herself?
"How can Yao'er bear such a cold weather? Prime Minister, we should call a doctor as soon as possible." Madam Liu held her daughter and looked up at Prime Minister Liu.
Prime Minister Liu's eyes were filled with coldness. He ignored Madam Liu's pleas and shouted impatiently, "What are you standing there for? Throw it!"
Please see the doctor?
The doctor is not qualified, should he ask for an imperial physician?
The anger in Liu Xiang's chest almost burned him up. At this moment, he wished he had never given birth to this shameless daughter.
The old woman was startled by Liu Xiang's gaze and quickly poured the water in the basin onto Liu Anyao.
Although she was afraid of the Madam, she was more afraid of the Prime Minister.
Since the Prime Minister said so, she would definitely listen to him.
Liu Anyao shuddered suddenly, and after a moment, the confusion in her eyes slowly returned to clarity.
“A-choo!”
She couldn't help sneezing, and as soon as she moved, she found that she was tied up, so she looked at Madam Liu: "Mom, what's wrong?"
Liu Anyao was a little confused, and for a moment she didn't realize what she had done in the palace.
Madam Liu looked at her daughter distressedly: "Yao'er."
"Mom, what happened?" Liu Anyao was stunned for a moment: "Shouldn't I be in the palace? It's so cold. Who is the bastard who splashed the water? Hurry up and get me some clean clothes to change into."
She yelled angrily.
Snap——
Liu Xiang slapped her hard, and her cheek, which was already swollen, looked even more red and swollen.
"Beast!"
Liu Anyao was stunned and looked at Liu Xiang in amazement.
Madam Liu protected her daughter and screamed, "Prime Minister, what are you doing?"
"Get out of the way. I will beat this rebellious girl to death today. Let's see what shameless things she has done in the palace."
Liu Xiang pointed at Liu Anyao and cursed angrily, his eagle-like eyes filled with flames of anger.
Madam Liu looked into his eyes and felt frightened. Thinking of what happened in the palace, she suddenly didn't know how to refute.
"She is the legitimate daughter of the prime minister, yet she actually danced a striptease at the palace banquet. Because of her, I was reprimanded by the emperor. With just a light sentence about rectifying the family tradition, I was exempted from attending court. Do you know that even in just a few days, the situation in the court will change in a thousand ways? In more serious cases, it may even affect the second prince's great cause." With every word Prime Minister Liu said, his face became more gloomy, as if there was a violent storm in it, which made people terrified.
“Ahhhhh…”
Liu Anyao suddenly remembered, holding her head and screaming, her eyes full of shock and panic, her face pale to the point of being almost transparent: "No, that's not me, that's not me."
Seeing her daughter's broken look, Madam Liu mocked Prime Minister Liu and shouted, "Prime Minister, you only care about the situation in the court and your great cause with the Second Prince. Do you not care about our daughter? Yao'er is your own daughter. She has been humiliated like this. Shouldn't you avenge her?"
"Yao'er has been well-educated since she was young. How could she do such a thing in public? She was clearly framed. Yao'er was wronged. She is innocent."
"Framed?" Prime Minister Liu gritted his teeth in anger: "That was in the palace, who would have the guts to frame her."
There might be something fishy about this matter, but it was useless to say these things now. The thing had already been done and all the face had been lost. Not finding out the truth would not save the Liu family's reputation, not to mention that he could not reach into the palace to investigate these things.
The emperor wanted to suppress the Liu family. Today's events made him furious, but it also gave the emperor a chance to vent his anger, and it was even more impossible for him to find out the so-called truth for him.
"Dad, it's Lu Xiang. She must have framed me. Go kill her, kill her." Liu Anyao suddenly roared.
Liu Xiang was furious: "Shut up."
