My concubine is pregnant, I tear up the marriage certificate and marry another powerful official

"Our Lu family is so unlucky that we have to face a disaster like you! When Su He was here, our family was peaceful and tranquil, and there was never any trouble! But it is you, this unlucky thing, who has brought unrest to our Lu family!"

Liu pointed at Liu Qiuqiu and cursed her loudly.

He cursed so hard that he even spat out blood!

Lu Zhili quickly sent someone to get a doctor, and at the same time comforted her: "Grandmother, please don't be angry! Although my brother has been temporarily detained and the charges have not been determined, we still have a way to rescue him! When I find the Second Prince, he will definitely find a way to save him!"

"The second prince..."

When Liu Qiuqiu heard this, her eyes moved slightly and her tightly clasped fingers tightened slightly.

"A disaster! It's an absolute disaster!"

Liu was so angry that she fainted, and at the last second she cursed Liu Qiuqiu viciously.

Lu Zhili sent someone to help Liu back to Weirui Pavilion, and personally instructed the doctor to check her carefully to make sure there were no mistakes.

Looking back, he saw Liu Qiuqiu lowering her head, tears of sadness pouring out, and she said in a hoarse voice: "Second brother, Ji'er... is gone!"

Lu Zhili frowned, and after learning the whole story, he felt that Mingchun deserved to die. Since he had hurt the bloodline of their Lu family, he had to pay the price.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. I will definitely help Ji'er get revenge!"

She had harmed Ji'er and had to pay the price.

She's just a maid, it doesn't matter if she dies.

In a dark and damp dungeon.

Only a half-sunken floor-to-ceiling window could let in some light.

Lu Yanxiu's hands and feet were shackled, and he could not make any other movements. He could only sit there in a daze.

He didn't understand.

Why did he set up a trap to frame the Su family, but it ended up boomeranging back on himself?

How could Su He, a woman, have such great abilities? And such deep thoughts?

Lu Yanxiu sighed in his heart.

Thinking back to not long ago, he and Su He were still in harmony, and were a loving couple in the eyes of outsiders. But in the blink of an eye, he ended up in prison.

The art of witchcraft is no different from any other.

Even if there was all the evidence to prove that the emperor had not been cursed, he was still ill and full of doubts, and would rather kill someone by mistake than let him go.

Lu Yanxiu couldn't think of a way to escape.

The Su family's banquet gradually dispersed.

The carriage stopped in front of Li Garden. Su He bent down and as soon as she landed, she saw Steward Lin rushing up to report the situation.

"Young Madam, the things you left at the Lu Mansion have not been found."

"On the contrary, the Lu family is suspected of witchcraft, and I found physical evidence there."

Su He's heart was beating fast.

I was afraid that Lu Huaihe behind me might hear it.

She clearly had her own servant, but she didn't use him. She had to specifically ask Steward Lin to go to the Lu Mansion, because he had served the Princess before and was in charge of the Li Garden, so Liu didn't dare to act rashly.

Moreover, he kept saying that he was going to retrieve something that was left behind, but what he found was physical evidence of witchcraft...

How could Lu Huaihe not see through such a clumsy setup?

"Has he been detained?" he asked from behind.

Steward Lin said, "No one has been convicted yet. We don't know whether the witchcraft is real or not. We have only arrested Lu Yanxiu and taken him to the Dali Temple to await interrogation."

When Su He learned that he was imprisoned, he finally heard good news.

Then I heard Steward Lin continue to say: "It seems that something happened to the young master who was just born in the Lu Mansion, and the murderer was also sent to the Dali Temple."

"Murderer? Who is it?"

Su He knew that Ji'er would not live long, and she had not survived in her previous life either. But in her previous life, she was framed for no reason and became a vicious stepmother who envied Liu Qiuqiu's childbirth and was jealous of Ji'er's birth. Who would be the murderer this time?

"I heard that it was a maidservant of Madam Liu, her name seemed to be Mingchun..."

Su He frowned and recalled Mingchun's appearance carefully.

She had already left the Lu Mansion, and Liu Qiuqiu had no way to frame her, so she had to shift the suspicion to other people.

Mingchun is a very good girl. It must be very uncomfortable for her to be involved in a murder case.

After entering Li Garden, walk along the forest path back to Qinfangju.

Su He suddenly asked about Lu Yanxiu: "Will you be the one to try his case?"

Lu Huaihe shook his head: "I probably won't get involved to avoid suspicion. The case may be tried by the Crown Prince himself. The Crown Prince and His Majesty have a deep father-son relationship, and I believe he will find out the truth."

Baili Jun has always been cautious in doing things, but Lu Yanxiu is afraid that he will suffer a lot.

When Su He mentioned Baili Juan, his upright figure emerged in his mind. He also thought of the case of Concubine Rong and Prince Jin, and his eyes were confused: "Will the Crown Prince... be a wise ruler?"

"Why do you suddenly think so?"

"I just think that everyone in the world believes in him and is willing to bow down before him. But the Second Prince was so brilliant back then. How did the Crown Prince... suddenly become so prominent?"

Lu Huaihe walked side by side with her, and both of them walked slowly.

There was a breeze blowing through the forest from time to time. Su He gathered the hem of her skirt and heard his slow and clear voice, feeling quite helpless: "How can there be a clean person in the royal family? The prince has won the hearts of the people, and he has the support of the queen and his uncle, the general of the north. If he follows the will of the people, why should he worry about not being able to ascend the throne?"

"The Second Prince..."

"Noble Concubine Rong was born into a poor family. After the palace turmoil, her mother's family was exiled to a remote area. The Second Prince has no relatives in the capital and no background. Although he has the Emperor, he has a deep personal grudge against him and is not very close to him."

Su He didn't understand: "The crown prince's position is stable, and the emperor doesn't like the second prince, so why is he still rushing into the fire like a moth, overestimating his own abilities?"

He has no one to rely on, but he still wants to fight for the imperial power. This is simply like a gnat trying to shake a tree.

Lu Huaihe smiled softly and tapped her nose lightly with his finger.

"Do you think he wants to seize the imperial power?"

Su He was stunned: "Isn't it?"

Lu Huaihe shook his head regretfully and denied her idea.

Su He couldn't understand why Baili Feng was so crazy.

Since he is not fighting for power, but is forming cliques and targeting court officials, is it just to vent his hatred?

hatred……

Is it Concubine Rong’s case?

Lu Huaihe did not say it clearly, and many things do not need to be said clearly.

Su He came to her senses and found that he had not waited for her and had already taken a few steps ahead. She then lifted the hem of her skirt and trotted a few steps to catch up with him.

Two days later, a handwritten order came from the Eastern Palace, ordering the Crown Prince to personally try Lu Yanxiu's case.

When the news was brought to the dungeon by the jailer, Lu Yan was eating a coarse flour bun and half a bowl of porridge.

The mouth tastes like chewing wax.

He stood up from the ground tremblingly, leaned on the cell door and begged the jailer to let him see Su He.

"What do you want to see her for?"

Lu Huaihe's cold voice rang out in the dark corridor. He was wearing a dark blue official uniform and a hat, and his face was dignified.

"Uncle..."

As if he had seen his savior, Lu Yanxiu reached out from the crack of the prison door, grabbed the corner of Lu Huaihe's clothes and explained loudly: "I didn't curse the emperor! It was Su He who framed me! She hated me and Qiqi for having a son and a daughter, so she disturbed the Lu family! And she didn't have good intentions to approach you, she just wanted to rely on you and find a good place for herself!"
