Liu Qiuqiu picked up a piece of chicken for him and put it on the plate, comforting him: "Young Madam knows the rules and etiquette, so don't worry, husband."

Lu Yanxiu knew that Su He was not the kind of person who would stir up trouble, and he was not worried about her safety. He was just afraid that she would say something wrong and bring shame to the Lu family.

What if Su He was jealous of Qi Qi and wanted to ruin her reputation and spread some rumors...

Lu Yanxiu only felt that someone was looking at him.

He looked around and found that Lu Huaihe was staring at him calmly. He seemed nonchalant, but in fact there was an invisible oppressive force.

Lu Yanxiu nodded and forced a smile, but Lu Huaihe looked away and stopped looking at him.

Noticing her son's strange behavior, Zhaoyang also looked towards the table where Lu Yanxiu was sitting. Because he was a relative of her late husband, she deliberately arranged his seat near the front.

After looking carefully, Zhaoyang felt that the woman beside Lu Yanxiu seemed to be one he had never seen before. He asked the supervisor beside him and found out that she was not his wife, but a new concubine.

Zhao Yang sneered: "Liu really taught a good grandson! From now on, people of such low status, please leave the house!"

Liu is the name of Old Madam Lu.

The supervisor received the order and felt a little scared after leaving.

He thought that every guest who came into the Princess's Mansion in the future would be stopped outside the gate and observed carefully. Those who behaved like prostitutes must be stopped!

Seeing that her favorite plum blossom cake was gone from the table, Liu Qiuqiu called the servant beside her and ordered, "Go get some."

The servant received the order and withdrew.

Lu Yanxiu was curious: "This is a servant of the Princess's Mansion, can you command him to do it?"

"The princess has taught well, and the servants in the mansion do not flatter the powerful and look down on the weak." Liu Qiuqiu said.

In fact, if you look closely, you will know that she has some similarities with that servant boy, and they are actually siblings, but Liu Qiuqiu has never mentioned it in front of Lu Yanxiu.

Liu Qiuqiu is in the light, and her brother is in the dark, and they can help her do a lot of things.

Su He tasted the dishes absentmindedly.

A maid came over from the side and said, "Are you Madam Lu? The princess invites you to take a walk in the garden and has sent me to lead the way."

The same words as in the previous life made Su He feel a chill from head to toe.

She put down her chopsticks and carefully observed the maid's expression, but didn't see anything unusual.

Pei Xia was a little surprised: "The princess and our young lady have never interacted with each other, why would she invite her to take a walk together?"

"The young lady is the eldest princess's niece's granddaughter-in-law, so they are considered relatives. It's nothing more than a few pleasantries, so don't worry about it, young lady."

Pei Xia was not satisfied with what the maid said. What did she mean by marrying into a family? It sounded like her daughter was eager to marry someone of higher status.

The young lady has been married to the Lu Mansion for many years and has never met the eldest princess. How can they be considered a relative?

Su He gathered the dagger hidden in his sleeve and said calmly, "Lead the way."

Although Pei Xia was dissatisfied, he did not dare to disobey the eldest princess's wishes. He was about to follow Su He, but was stopped by the maid.

"What does it mean?"

"The princess only invited the young lady." The maid's face looked sour.

Su He comforted Pei Xia: "It's okay, I'll be back soon."

She did not drink the tea with the drug in her previous life. Liu Qiuqiu would definitely not let it go and would definitely think of another way.

After leaving the banquet with the maid, Su He glanced and saw that the eldest princess was indeed not at the banquet. It was absolutely impossible to greet her, so she must have other things to do.

"Where is the princess?"

After walking around the corridor and getting a little further away from the table, the noise gradually became unclear. Su He looked around, and there was no maid or servant in sight. Although he had prepared himself mentally, he was still a little nervous.

The maid secretly quickened her pace: "Don't worry, Madam, it's just ahead."

There was a dense forest outside the corridor, and it was difficult to see clearly in the forest. Su He put one hand on his sleeve, ready to fight to the death with a dagger if anyone wanted to harm him!

The maid walking in front suddenly stopped.

She turned around with a smile on her face, staring at Su He's face, and said maliciously, "Madam, it's right here."

Su He looked around. The forest was deep and far away from the banquet. She was nervous. Her fingers touched the cold handle of the dagger. She pretended to be calm and asked, "What is your relationship with Liu Qiuqiu?"

The maid said, "I don't know her."

"Why would you harm me if you don't know me?"

The maid smiled and uttered two words: "To make money."

Seeking money will naturally lead to killing.

Su He suddenly thought that she would take all her dowry with her when she divorced. In order to have no worries about food and clothing in the future, would Liu Qiuqiu target her?

The maid smiled sinisterly, quickly took out a handkerchief containing sleeping pills from her bosom, pinched Su He's arm, and pretended to cover her up!

Su He dodged quickly and stabbed the maid with the dagger!

While she was injured and was about to run back the same way, as soon as she turned around, someone immediately covered her mouth and nose. After a burst of strange fragrance, Su He's legs and feet went limp and she lost her strength, and collapsed in the man's arms.

"The young lady is very fierce. It seems that I need to ask the old lady for more reward money!"

Madam? Madam Lu?

Su He was dizzy when he heard these words. His nails dug deeply into his flesh and hatred overwhelmed him!

"Alright, alright, hurry up and finish it! Then we can ask her for money!" The maid covered her arm and kicked open the door of a room at the end of the corridor, urging the man to take Su He in quickly. The drug only lasts half an hour, it would be bad if it took until she wakes up!

Su He felt the man's rough hand touching her face.

Her eyes were red and she felt disgusted. She used the last bit of her rationality to bite the man hard. While he was wailing with his hands covered, she immediately broke free and ran out the door.

Before she even stepped out of the door, Su He felt her body completely limp, and she even lost the strength to raise her hands. In a blur, she saw a man in black clothes appear in front of her, and her heart was finally at ease. She called out softly with her rosy lips: "It's you again..."

Lu Huaihe picked her up by the waist, glanced coldly at the two people trembling in fear in the room, and ordered the guards behind him: "Tie them up and throw them into the well!"

"Yes!"

Su He just felt that his body was light and floating, as if he was in a misty cloud.

There was a strong force beneath her body that supported her and held her tightly in his arms.

The effect of the drug was very strong. Su He felt hot and uncomfortable all over. Her fingers tightly grasped the clothes on Lu Huaihe's chest, and she bit her lips and tried to endure it.

The strange fragrance was not difficult to smell, and Lu Huaihe had already guessed what drug she had been poisoned with.

This is the guest room in the Princess's Mansion. It has been uninhabited all year round and few people come here.

Lu Huaihe found a quiet and secluded room, put her on the bed, and was about to get some cold water.

Unexpectedly, Su He held on to the corner of his clothes tightly, her rosy cheeks like the rising morning glow, and a vague confusion in her eyes.
