Reborn, the daughter of the Marquisate went crazy
Chapter 244 Which One Should I Choose?
Growing up in Mao's doting care, Lu Qian was lawless, foolish, and ignorant. She naively believed that in front of all the guests, Lu Xiuzhang would choose the antidote to save her and release Mao.
But when Lu Xiuzhang heard Lu Qian's threat, his face turned ashen. He glared at Lu Qian as if he wanted to eat her alive, and shouted, "Rebellious girl, hand over the antidote immediately, or I'll be rude to you!"
Lu Qian was not afraid at all. She looked directly at Lu Xiuzhang and shrilly said, "I won't, unless Daddy lets Mommy go!"
Lu Xiu Zhang was so angry that he was shaking all over. He shouted loudly: "Come here, take her down for me!"
Lu Qian had never expected that Lu Xiuzhan didn't care about Miss Zhang's life or death at all. A layer of fear surged in her heart, and she looked around in panic, trying to find an opportunity to escape.
Just at this moment, footsteps were heard outside the door.
Everyone looked back and saw two young men striding towards them, one in front and one behind. They both had outstanding looks and a natural air of nobility, which made people involuntarily look at them sideways.
Several guards followed closely behind the two men. Their attire was completely different from that of ordinary servants, and they exuded a faint aura of solemnity.
Lu Xiuzhang immediately recognized the guards' attire and weapons as those unique to the Southwestern Garrison. A wave of doubt welled up in his heart. Why would someone from the Southwestern Army visit at this hour?
Before Lu Xiuzhang could make a move, Master Zhang had already taken the lead in greeting him. His heart was filled with gratitude. Xie Tingyu had taken the time to come to the banquet, which must be for Shou'an's happy occasion. He quickly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Thank you, sir, for coming!"
Xie Tingyu nodded and laughed out loud, "Shou'an is Li'er's sworn brother, and he's my younger brother. How could I miss such a big event for him?"
As soon as he entered the room, Chu Yuncang secretly glanced at the female guest's side, looking for Xie Qingli's figure. The two of them went their separate ways after arriving in Qizhou. It had been more than ten days since they last saw each other, and he missed her very much.
Suddenly, Chu Yuncang saw Xie Qingli slumped over the table with a pale face and eyes closed. He felt his breathing stagnate and his heart skipped a beat. He said in panic, "Li'er~" and rushed towards Xie Qingli in a panic.
When Xie Tingyu heard the shouting, he didn't bother to greet Mr. Zhang and ran towards Xie Qingli.
Lu Xiu Zhang looked solemn. He approached Master Zhang and asked, "Father-in-law, is this man a relative of yours? He is..."
Master Zhang quickly replied, "Lord Lu, you must already know that I only have one biological son, Shouan, while my eldest son and my youngest daughter are my adopted sons and daughters. This Lord Xie is my daughter's biological brother, the eldest son of the Marquis of Jing'an in Shengjing City, and currently serves in the Southwest Army."
Lu Xiuzhan was shocked. He had indeed found out that the eldest son and the youngest daughter of the Zhang family were both adopted children from the countryside by Mr. Zhang. However, he did not know that the girl's true identity was actually a daughter of the Marquis' Mansion. He just did not know the strength and status of the Jing'an Marquis' Mansion, let alone what position Mr. Xie held in the Southwest Army.
On the other side, Chu Yuncang looked at Xie Qingli, whose face was pale. His heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible big hand. Every beat was accompanied by severe pain, and breathing became more and more difficult.
His heart was instantly overwhelmed by a deep sense of self-blame and a huge sense of emptiness. He shouldn't have left Li'er. He should have always stayed by Li'er's side to protect her. If anything happened to Li'er, what would be worth staying in this world?
Xie Qingli's eyes opened slightly and he winked at Chu Yuncang. But Chu Yuncang was so depressed that he didn't notice the slightest movement. He reached out to hug Xie Qingli and wanted to quickly find a doctor, but Zhang Shouan stopped him.
Hu Er saw the man in front of him, who looked very noble and had a frighteningly dark complexion. However, in order to ensure the smooth implementation of Xie Qingli's plan, he had to muster up the courage to say, "Sir, I am a doctor. I have already given Sister Qingli a detoxification pill. She will be back to normal after a short rest here..."
At this moment, Xie Tingyu also rushed to Xie Qingli's side. He knew Hu Er and knew that Hu Er was a doctor, so he naturally believed Hu Er's words and couldn't help but feel relieved.
Seeing Chu Yuncang's face full of pain, Xie Tingyu's heart sank suddenly, and his suspicious eyes kept moving back and forth between Chu Yuncang and Xie Qingli.
But thinking about the fact that Chu Yuncang had solemnly sworn that he would never love Li'er in this life, let alone marry Li'er as his concubine, Xie Tingyu felt relieved again. Chu Yuncang was so sad, it must be because Li'er was his biological sister whom he had found with great difficulty!
Xie Tingyu turned to look at Zhang Shouan and asked in a deep voice, "Shouan, what on earth is going on? How did Li'er become like this?"
Zhang Shouan shot a cold gaze in Lu Qian's direction and said in a cold voice, "Second Miss Lu poisoned the wine, and Sister Li'er became poisoned after drinking it."
Lu Qian stood a few steps away, staring at the two men in front of him with infatuated eyes. One was extremely handsome, and the other was full of vigor. Both were rare beauties in the world. If he could choose, which one would he choose?
Lu Xiuzhang quickly walked up to Xie Tingyu and nodded slightly, saying, "Sir Xie, it's my fault for not teaching my daughter well. I will punish her severely..."
Lu Qian suddenly interrupted, "Dad, if either of them is willing to be Qianqian's husband, Qianqian is willing to hand over the antidote and not release Mother!"
Her gaze fell on Xie Tingyu, and she chuckled softly, "The poison Miss Zhang was poisoned by was Lin Yuan's unique poison, and it's not easily cured. If you want to save her, you can become my husband, or let that pretty boy do it..."
Chu Yuncang's face turned pale and his eyes were grim. It turned out that this woman was the culprit who killed Lu Li in the previous life. In this life, she actually dared to hurt Li'er. She deserved to die!
He turned to look at Lu Xiuzhang, his eyes flashing with an icy light. "Lu Xiuzhang, I want to ask you, what is the crime that Second Miss Lu should be punished for deliberately murdering the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Jing'an and the granddaughter of General Jiang?"
His tone was light, but it contained a thousand-pound pressure. Everyone present held their breath involuntarily, as if even the air had solidified.
Lonely? Lu Xiuzhang felt as if he had fallen into an icy cellar. The person before him was actually the crown prince! And, that woman was actually Jiang Zhong's granddaughter?!
His legs went weak and he knelt on the ground with a plop. He said in a trembling voice, "Your Highness, I...I failed to teach my daughter well. I acknowledge my guilt! She has caused such a disaster. It is up to Your Highness to deal with her!" After he finished speaking, he knelt deeply on the ground.
Everyone was shocked and knelt on the ground.
Only Lu Qian stood in the middle of the crowd, stunned, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. The pretty boy in front of her was actually the Crown Prince, the most powerful man in Shengjing City. He was so handsome and so powerful; he was the one she should choose!
But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to punish her for another woman. What should she do?
