The female supporting role is really here to mess things up

The news that Lu Qingxi and Shen Rong were arrested and taken to the Dali Temple swept across the capital like a gust of wind. After hearing the news, Qi Yutong and Gu Rou sent people to secretly spread the good news in the capital.

Because of the message from her princess, the Princess Mansion has kept the news from her princess. Otherwise, there would be another commotion in the capital...

Xiaohuan, the only survivor, was able to escape because she was mistaken for a maid in the general's mansion. She was filled with fear and worry, and immediately ran to the Duke's Mansion to seek Song Yi's help.

When Song Yi heard about this, rumors were already spreading in the capital. It was said that the willful second daughter of the Lu family had brought people from the Shen family into the general's mansion and attempted to murder the fiancée of Mr. Xue. Fortunately, the Shen family's female doctor had a conscience and took action at the critical moment, pulling the girl back from the brink of death.

When Mrs. Song heard the news, she was filled with anger and worry and fainted. Song Yi was extremely worried and immediately asked a doctor to treat her. After the doctor examined her, he said that the old lady fainted due to anger and that she was fine and just needed to avoid excessive stimulation.

At the same time, Xiao Yuebai also heard about this. He originally thought that the victim was Li Wanqing, but he didn't expect it was Lu Qingxi! He immediately went to Li's house to check, but was informed that her daughter had not returned. His intuition told him that the Li Wanqing he knew was probably Lu Qingxi. He was extremely anxious and immediately went to the Ministry of Justice to find Murong Feng and asked him to take good care of Lu Qingxi.

Murong Feng looked at Xiao Yuebai's anxious expression and couldn't help but feel curious. When he heard Xiao Yuebai say the three words "I love her", he was even more surprised. He agreed to Xiao Yuebai's request and repeatedly assured him that he would take good care of Lu Qingxi before he was allowed to leave.

After seeing Xiao Yuebai off at the door, Murong Feng immediately began to make arrangements. He asked a trusted man to ride fast to the Dali Temple and pass a message to the Dali Temple Chief, saying that he would visit in person later.

Afterwards, he returned to the hall of the Ministry of Justice and immediately summoned his subordinates, briefly explained the official business at hand, and specifically reminded them that if there were any urgent matters, they could discuss them after he returned. His tone revealed a hint of unquestionable determination, and it was obvious that he had something urgent in mind. After arranging all this, he hurriedly left the Ministry of Justice and rushed towards the Dali Temple.

Along the way, Murong Feng's heart was filled with anxiety and worry. He was worried that Lu Qingxi had been tortured, and if that happened, he would have a hard time explaining it to Xiao Yuebai. Therefore, his heart was filled with anxiety and he just wanted to see Lu Qingxi as soon as possible to confirm her safety.

When he arrived at the Dali Temple, the Dali Temple Minister had received the news and hurried out to greet him. There was a trace of confusion and nervousness on his face, and he obviously didn't understand why the Minister of Justice came to the Dali Temple in person. But Murong Feng didn't give him too much explanation and directly stated his purpose.

"I want to meet Lu Qingxi." Murong Feng's tone was firm and direct.

Although the Dali Temple Minister was puzzled, he did not dare to ask more questions. He nodded and agreed, and personally led the way for Murong Feng. The two of them walked through the winding corridors and came to the prison where the prisoners were held.

When they finally reached the cell, Murong Feng saw a scene that left him dumbfounded. A group of jailers surrounded a cell, asking about the people inside:

"Miss Lu, are you thirsty? Do you want some tea? I'll secretly make you some Longjing tea from my private collection."

"Miss Lu, what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."

"Miss Lu, will it feel cold in the cell? I'll go get some more bedding."

"Ms. Lu..."

……

Murong Feng couldn't believe his eyes. Although he didn't come to the Dali Temple often, he knew the rules of the prison. The prisoners here should be strictly guarded, how could they be treated like this? He couldn't help but cast a puzzled look at the Dali Temple Minister beside him.

The Dali Temple Minister was also bewildered. Although his subordinates were usually a bit slick, they were not so outrageous. The scene before him made him a little confused, but he knew that he must not lose his composure at this moment. So, he pretended to be calm and coughed, trying to attract the attention of the jailers.

However, the jailers seemed to be completely immersed in their own world and ignored the cough of the Dali Temple Minister. The Dali Temple Minister had no choice but to cough several times again, which finally attracted their attention. The jailers turned back impatiently, wanting to see who had interrupted them from trying to please the beauty. When they saw the Dali Temple Minister and the Minister of Justice Murong Feng beside him, they were immediately frightened and quickly scattered and returned to their posts.

After the jailers dispersed, Murong Feng finally saw Lu Qingxi's face clearly.

Lu Qingxi sat in the corner of the cell. Although she was imprisoned, her beauty had not faded at all. She was wearing a prison uniform. The plain white clothes seemed to be endowed with some kind of magic on her body, emitting a different kind of brilliance.

Her face was extremely beautiful, as if it was a masterpiece carefully carved by God. Her eyebrows were as dark as distant mountains, and her eyes were as clear as autumn water. The firmness and wisdom in her eyes made people fall in love with her. She had a high nose bridge and elegant lips. Even in this dim cell, she still looked so dazzling.

Her hair was scattered on her shoulders, a little messy, but it added a bit of unruly charm. She had a slender figure, and even in the small space of the cell, she still maintained an elegant posture. Her fingers were slender and long, gently resting on her knees, as if she was playing a silent piece of music.

What is most amazing is her calm and composed demeanor. In this cell filled with coldness and despair, she is able to remain calm and peaceful, as if all these difficulties cannot shake her heart. There is no fear or anxiety in her eyes, only determination and confidence.

Murong Feng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, no wonder Xiao Yuebai was so infatuated with her. If he were to get along with her, he would probably be deeply attracted to her...

He calmed himself down and signaled the Dali Temple to give the two of them some space to talk. The Dali Temple quickly called his men and left the cell with him. Murong Feng then stepped forward to explain his purpose to Lu Qingxi. He told Lu Qingxi that "Gu Zishu" was working hard to overturn her case outside and asked her not to worry. After hearing this, Lu Qingxi's eyes flashed with gratitude. She nodded, saying that she would be strong in the face of it all.

Before leaving, Murong Feng specifically greeted the Dali Temple Minister and asked him to take good care of Lu Qingxi before leaving.

The moment Wang Xu heard that Lu Qingxi was involved in this incident, the anger in his heart burned like dry wood that had been ignited. He recalled the last time he went to the Princess's Mansion, when he felt a mixture of expectation and disappointment, and felt a dull pain in his heart. He clearly realized that his feelings for Lu Qingxi had gone beyond simple appreciation and curiosity, and that it was a deep feeling.

Although he and Lu Qingxi had never met, her shadow lingered in his heart. He imagined her smile, imagined her temperament, and every detail made him fall in love with her. He didn't understand why he had such strong feelings for a woman he had never met, but the facts were in front of him and he could no longer control his heart.

After hearing about the symptoms of Su Jiaojiao's accident, Wang Xu made a judgment in his mind. He knew that Su Qi had been persecuted by the eldest lady of the Su family in recent years, and her personality was twisted and she was unscrupulous. His sister, on the other hand, was a bit soft-hearted, kind and caring, so it was unlikely that she would harm others. Therefore, he concluded without hesitation that this must be Su Qi's conspiracy to frame Lu Qingxi.

In anger, Wang Xu found Su Qi in private. He grabbed Su Qi's neck with a dangerous light flashing in his eyes. As a man, Wang Xu's hand strength was surprisingly strong. Su Qi only felt a strong force strangling his throat, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

Su Qi looked at Wang Xu in horror, his face was pale and his eyes were full of fear. He felt like a prey being stared at by a cheetah, powerless to struggle, and could only let fate take its course.

When Su Qi felt that he was about to suffocate, Wang Xu finally let go of his hand. Su Qi fell to the ground, gasping for breath, as if he had just escaped from the hands of death. He looked at Wang Xu in horror, his heart full of fear.

Wang Xu looked at Su Qi coldly, his voice cold and firm: "I tell you, if you dare to touch Lu Qingxi again, I will make you regret coming to this world!" After that, he turned and left, leaving Su Qi shivering on the ground alone.

Su Qi knew in his heart that he had really offended this prince this time. He rolled his eyes and decided to go to the Prince Qi's mansion to seek asylum.

The King of Qi was sitting in his courtyard, listening to the servant's report, but a wave of emotion was stirring in his heart. The servant said, "Your Highness, Su Qi, the son of the Su family, wants to see you." The King of Qi frowned slightly. The matter in General Xue's mansion had been a big fuss recently. Although Su Qi was the mastermind behind the matter and he was also considered a half-meritorious official, the King of Qi did not want to get too involved with him at this time, so as not to bring trouble upon himself.

However, the servant's next words made the King of Qi change his mind: "Your Majesty, Master Su said he has something important to discuss, and it concerns Master Wang Xu." The King of Qi's eyes flashed. Wang Xu was not only his cousin, but also his most important military advisor. His affairs should not be taken lightly. So, he waved his hand and signaled the servant to bring Su Qi in.

Soon, Su Qi came in hastily, with a trace of panic and uneasiness on his face. When he saw the King of Qi, he knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, Master Wang Xu...he actually wants to kill me!" Su Qi exaggeratedly described how Wang Xu threatened him and how he made him feel threatened in his life.

The King of Qi frowned as he listened to Su Qi's narration. He knew Wang Xu's temper, but he never expected him to act so impulsively. However, Su Qi's next words made him nervous: "Your Majesty, Wang Xu treated me like this today, and I'm afraid he will do something bad to you in the future because of Lu Qingxi's matter!"

There was a hint of coldness in the eyes of the King of Qi. He had also heard of the name Lu Qingxi. The second daughter of the Lu family seemed to have a bad reputation in the capital. How could his cousin who never took any woman seriously have contact with her? He was afraid that there was some misunderstanding. Thinking that he had always relied on his cousin, who had helped him a lot, he should not have doubted... Instead, the person in front of him acted in a despicable way, and was a villain who could hurt his own sister and frame others. He looked at Su Qi coldly, with a hint of murderous intent in his voice: "Mr. Su, you can take care of yourself. You don't have to worry too much about my affairs."

Su Qi was shocked when he heard this, knowing that the King of Qi might not trust him. He kowtowed hurriedly and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I am just worried about your safety, and I have no selfish motives."

However, the King of Qi no longer wanted to listen to his explanation. He waved his hand and signaled the servants to take Su Qi away. Watching Su Qi's departing back, a complex light flashed in the King of Qi's eyes. It seems that he has to pay more attention to Wang Xu. Just now, he noticed the finger marks on Su Qi's neck, which did not seem to be fake. Su Qi must have rushed here from outside, and it must have taken quite a while, but now he can still see the marks on her neck. I'm afraid Wang Xu really wanted to kill her at that time. But if it was really Wang Xu who did it for Lu Qingxi, then Wang Xu must really care about Lu Qingxi. But it is unclear which side the woman stands on, and he always feels that it will be a variable. If Lu Qingxi is really caught between him and Wang Xu, then he can only make Lu Qingxi disappear...
