"You, you..." He laughed angrily, "I must take this girl with me!"
"Someone come here..."
A group of menacing people appeared.
"Qiu Niang, call our people out!"
Qiu Niang whispered beside her, "Master, his cousin is Lu Yiheng..."
It was him, the man with the peach blossom eyes.
"Wouldn't it be wrong for us to offend the Lu family for Que'er's sake..."
"What's wrong with this? Someone come here!"
Watching the intense fight unfolding ahead, I felt a pang of heartache. This money…
"Miss……"
I heard a shout and turned around for no apparent reason.
I saw a black stick swinging towards me.
"Miss……"
Suddenly, my body felt light, and I felt two hands on my waist.
Looking back, I caught a glimpse of a pair of dark, glassy eyes.
"Thanks."
The person vanished in an instant.
I noticed that the row of people collapsed instantly, groaning on the ground.
"Let's go, let's go!" Lu Yaoguang's face turned ashen, and a group of people scrambled to their feet and fled.
"Miss, are you alright? You scared me to death just now." Ping'er patted her chest anxiously.
Qiu Niang asked, "Is Master alright?"
I smiled easily and said, "It's nothing, nothing at all."
On the way home.
"Ping'er, did you see a man dressed in all black just now?"
Ping'er asked doubtfully, "No..."
I thought about it for a while, and it was probably because of the chaotic scene. I guessed that group of people were driven away by the man in black.
"Fourth sister, I have something to ask you."
"What is it? Ping'er, bring the tea up."
Liu Chengxian asked, "I heard you want to marry into the palace, is that true?"
Ping'er, who was holding the tea, trembled and almost spilled it on her hand.
"Third, Third Young Master...please have a taste of the tea. This is the young lady's latest milk tea." He secretly glanced at his young mistress.
Liu Chengxian took a bite and said with an appreciative smile, "Not bad, very sweet and smooth. Fourth Sister's skills have improved."
He immediately became serious again, "Is this true?"
I smiled without answering, which was taken as tacit agreement.
Yoo Sung-hyun: "Is this Fourth Sister's true thought?"
Ping'er quickly said, "No, no." Then she explained that the second young lady had come to the room.
"So that's how it is."
"I didn't expect even Third Brother to know."
Liu Chengxian: "Third brother is concerned about you. This palace... is not as peaceful as it seems."
There's a hidden meaning in his words.
I looked at him and said, "Third Brother, could you please tell me?"
Liu Chengxian laughed and said, "Fourth Sister is also a clever person, so it's okay for Third Brother to say something. The Emperor has not yet appointed a Crown Prince, and there are currently two factions: the First Prince's faction and the Fourth Prince's faction."
"So, who does Third Brother think will become the Crown Prince?"
Liu Chengxian was silent for a moment, "This... it's hard to say. The eldest prince is the empress's son, although not her biological child, he was raised from childhood. As for the fourth prince, he is Consort Chun's son, who was once greatly favored by the emperor. It's a pity that she died young..."
"Consort Chun? The one who died three years ago?"
Liu Chengxian: "Yes, the Fourth Prince and the Seventh Prince were both born to Consort Chun. The Seventh Prince had some health problems from birth and was especially close to Consort Chun. After Consort Chun died, the Seventh Prince almost died as well. Therefore, the Fourth Prince doted on the Seventh Prince."
"No wonder..."
When Liu Chengxian left, he jokingly said, "Next time I come, I'll try what new teas Fourth Sister has here."
They escaped from the Liu residence with Ping'er and headed to the Hundred Flowers Pavilion.
"Hmph... brat, I knew you'd come. Men, get him!"
Lu Yaoguang!
"Miss, what should we do?" Ping'er's face changed in fright, and she leaned forward. "Don't you dare bully our young lady!"
"Get out of here..."
Watching Ping'er being kicked away, he instinctively clenched his fist.
"If you want revenge, come to me! Don't you dare bully Miss! Don't you dare..."
"Get out of here..."
Just then.
The black figure reappeared.
The figure merely passed by, and a group of people fell to the ground.
"Ping'er, are you alright?" He quickly helped Ping'er up.
Staring at the black figure, she asked, "Who are you? Why have you saved me time and time again?"
He did not answer.
Me: "You have to let me know why, right? Do you have a grudge against the Lu family?" Seeing that the pig-headed man was really turned into a pig-headed man, he scrambled away.
"Let's just consider it a grudge."
It left like a gust of wind.
"Miss, who is he? That's strange..."
I glanced at it silently. "I find it strange too!"
I just arrived at Baihua Tower.
Qiu Niang: "Master, Que'er has been taken away."
I was furious. "Who? Lu Yaoguang?"
Qiu Niang nodded.
"He's quick on his feet..."
"Ping'er, let's go."
Looking at the gate of the Lu residence.
"Who are you?"
“Go and tell your young master that the fourth young lady of the Liu family has come to see him.”
Ping'er and I waited at the door.
"Moon..."
Lu Yiheng, dressed in a crimson robe, arrived with a happy smile, "I didn't expect Yue'er to come looking for me."
Me: "Yes, there's something I need to ask you..."
I told Lu Yiheng what had happened.
Lu Yiheng's expression changed. "This Lu Yaoguang... Men, go to his courtyard..."
"No need, I want to go myself."
Lu Yiheng nodded, "Okay, I'll go with you."
Upon seeing Lu Yiheng arrive, the servants hurriedly rushed inside to report.
"Cousin..." Lu Yaoguang scrambled over, his clothes still unbuttoned.
Seeing his disheveled appearance, Lu Yiheng angrily kicked him.
“Cousin…” Lu Yaoguang cried out.
