Su Qingci suddenly pushed the prince aside, looked at him with disgust, then quickly pulled the quilt beside him and covered himself with it.
Lu Huan didn't say anything, nor did he even look at her. He casually took off his outer robe and threw it on her.
"Put it on." His voice was extremely cold.
Su Qingci was stunned. What he gave her was... his own outer robe, also a man's outer robe.
She was a little hesitant.
Her own clothes were not torn, but the collar was open and she was a little disheveled.
In fact, she could sort it out as long as he went out.
Lu Huan pulled out something from his embroidered robe, which looked like a wet handkerchief, and then quickly and accurately covered the prince's nose and mouth with it.
The prince struggled a few times and then completely lost consciousness.
"You...you suffocated him to death!?"
Lu Huan glanced at her speechlessly, "Put on your outer robe, go behind the screen over there, and put your clothes in order!"
"Do you want to go out like this?"
He did not answer her whether he had killed the prince.
The fear in Su Qingci's heart had already surpassed the sense of boundary between men and women in his heart.
No matter how shameless the prince is, no matter how much he deserves to die, he cannot be killed.
He is the crown prince, the future heir to the throne.
If the prince died, it would cause great turmoil. Once the investigation began, neither she nor Lu Huan would be able to escape!
Su Qingci stretched out her white wrist and tremblingly reached towards the prince's nose.
Before she could even touch the prince, she heard Lu Huan say in a stern voice, "He's not dead!"
"The drug I put in Xiupa can make people sleep for at least two hours. After waking up, they will forget everything they did before falling asleep."
Su Qingci withdrew his hand, his palm curled up, "So that's how it is... I thought."
Lu Huan glanced at her coldly, then turned away secretly, "Go tidy your clothes."
Seeing his serious look, Su Qingci jumped off the bed in an instant and trotted all the way behind the screen.
Through the screen, Su Qingci could only vaguely see Lu Huan's back.
Tall, straight, and slender.
He stood with his hands behind his back, and beneath his gentle scholarly air was a hint of arrogance, as if he looked on with disdain for everything.
Su Qingci recalled his expression just now. Indifferent, yet impatient.
It is completely different from his appearance and temperament.
He was wearing a white robe and a jade-green waist belt today. At a glance, he looked like a gentle and polite man.
Her gaze shifted slightly downwards, and she saw that there was no sachet or jade pendant on Lu Huan's waist, but instead a black dagger on his belt.
On the contrary, this black dagger seems to better represent his character.
He is cold, ruthless, emotionally indifferent, aloof, and detached, just like the howling cold wind in the valley in winter.
And the winter wind, when it is biting, is like the knife at his waist.
…
Su Qingci tidied his clothes, slowly walked out from behind the screen, handed over the folded robe, and pretended to return it to him, "Your outer robe, I give it back to you."
Lu Huan turned around and glanced at it lightly, "My things have been touched by others, so I don't want them anymore."
Su Qingci didn't expect him to be like this, and felt helpless. "But, you threw this robe to me yourself."
Lu Huan said coldly, "Then throw it away."
Su Qingci: “…”
"How about...I can give it back to you after I wash it?"
Lu Huan looked at her in surprise, and Su Qingci knew what he meant.
She said awkwardly, "I need to wash my own clothes sometimes, so I don't need this one from you."
The daughter of a wealthy family lives such a miserable life that she even has to wash her own clothes.
Lu Huan didn't say anything, but just withdrew his gaze. He turned around and opened the closed door.
Su Qingci didn't hesitate and followed immediately.
It was her first time in the East Palace and she was not familiar with the terrain, so she had to follow him all the way out.
It is obviously impossible to go find Su Songqi.
She wanted to go home first, and when Su Songqi asked her about it, she would pretend that she didn't know and just say that she had a nap and couldn't find him, and then she would go back home first.
As for the prince, he has Lu Huan's medicine anyway, so he won't remember anything after waking up. Su Songqi can't match his confession, so naturally there is nothing she can do to her.
She just needs to be more careful in the future.
…
Su Qingci didn't know where Lu Huan was going, and originally wanted to find a maid to take her out of the house.
Lu Huan seemed to see through her thoughts, "Don't you think it's a bit too coincidental that the maid brought you here?"
Su Qingci: "You mean, the prince asked her to bring me here?"
Lu Huan didn't say anything, but Su Qingci knew what was going on. It seemed that the food and drink served to her by the waiter showed that someone was leading her to the bureau step by step.
She originally thought that her Chinese medicine was made by her father, and at least had nothing to do with the prince and the maids in the prince's mansion.
Unexpectedly, all of this was planned.
As Su Qingci walked, she realized that there was not a single servant or maid along the way.
It seems that this can only be intentional.
The prince sent all his servants away, waiting for her to fall into his trap.
Fortunately, Lu Huan came to help today.
Su Qingci didn't know why Lu Huan was so familiar with the terrain of the Eastern Palace. He avoided crowded places and deliberately chose various blind paths, and finally brought her out of the Prince's Mansion safely.
