The mind-reading coroner drove the court crazy
Chapter 120 Unexpected Makeup
Qin Miaoxi sat quietly in the bridal chamber. The tedious process was over, and the bridesmaid was still muttering auspicious words. But then, in an instant, the surrounding sounds stopped abruptly, and the whole room became silent.
[Why does it take so long to get married? My legs are numb!]
A cute complaining voice reached her ears, and Qin Miaoxi blurted out, "Beautiful sister? Princess Xinglan!?"
"How do you know it was me?"
The veil in front of her was lifted, and a curious face came into view. It was indeed Princess Xinglan, Lu Shiya.
Qin Miaoxi blinked and smiled faintly: "The princess has a special body fragrance that is hard to forget."
Lu Shiya was immediately amused. She looked at the beautiful Qin Miaoxi and said with a teasing smile, "As expected, people are in high spirits when they are happy. Whose family is this young lady from? Oh! A dandy family."
Qin Miaoxi couldn't help laughing. The matter between Lu Qingchen and Lu Shiya had caused a lot of uproar before, but it was clarified the next day. The emperor even granted the young marquis a marriage, which embarrassed Princess Xinglan. Now she was probably here to get back at him!
"I would love to be a beautiful sister's wife, but my sister doesn't want me!"
"You're still the sweetest one! Much better than that dandy guy."
Lu Shiya sat down directly opposite her, poured herself a cup of tea without any hesitation and said, "I didn't expect the marriage to be so early. When I got there, you had already been picked up by Lu Qingchen's grandson."
Qin Miaoxi laughed. There were rumors before that Princess Xinglan had taken a fancy to Lu Qingchen, but judging from her current attitude, she seemed to dislike him very much!
"Princess, what brings you here?"
"Nothing, just getting to know you and adding some makeup to your look."
At this moment, a maid came in with a gift list. After bowing to Lu Shiya, she said to Qin Miaoxi, "Miss, this gift for Princess Xinglan's dowry..."
She lowered her head slightly and stole a glance at the two of them. She saw that they were talking intimately, and there was no tension between them like rivals in love.
Qin Miaoxi glanced at the gift list, looked at Lu Shiya in shock and said, "Sister, this is too expensive, I can't accept it."
"What's so valuable? It's all from my sister's heart."
"But……"
"Your husband helped me before, so I owe you a big favor."
Qin Miaoxi was stunned, and the two looked at each other, and everything was said without words.
Lu Shiya took a sip of tea and looked around the room. "This wedding room is quite exquisitely decorated, but the red color is a bit dazzling."
Qin Miaoxi followed her gaze and smiled faintly, "It's just a traditional wedding custom. It's better to be festive."
Lu Shiya put down her teacup, leaned slightly closer to Qin Miaoxi, and said in a low voice, "You know, although Lu Qingchen looks like a playboy, he is actually a man of deep thoughts. You have to be more careful in the future."
Qin Miaoxi felt warm in her heart and said gratefully, "Thank you for the reminder, sister. I will be careful."
At this moment, there was a commotion outside the door, as if some guests had come to congratulate them.
Lu Shiya stood up and adjusted her skirt. "I can't stay long. I'll chat with you another day."
After saying that, she walked towards the door, and when she reached the door, she turned back and warned: "If that Lu Qingchen dares to bully you, just come to me, and I will help you vent your anger."
Qin Miaoxi nodded in agreement, and looked at Lu Shiya's departing back, feeling a lot of emotions in her heart.
After Lu Shiya left, Lu Qingchen pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing Qin Miaoxi looking thoughtful, he frowned slightly and said, "What's wrong? Are you hungry? I've asked someone to prepare some snacks, which will be delivered shortly."
Qin Miaoxi, feeling exhausted, rubbed her brows gently, then absentmindedly began to tidy up the makeup that Lu Shiya had sent her.
"It's nothing, I just had a lot of social engagements today and I'm a little tired." She said casually.
Lu Qingchen stood aside, looking at her tired appearance, seeming a little at a loss.
"How about I give you a massage? I once learned from a martial arts master how to relieve shoulder pain." He suggested cautiously.
[Oh my! We're just getting married and we're already arm in arm, oh no, rubbing shoulders and pounding legs. Just thinking about it makes me feel strangely excited!]
This voice suddenly rang in Qin Miaoxi's mind.
Qin Miaoxi's mouth twitched slightly, and she sighed in her heart: "..." Sometimes she was really annoyed by her ability to read minds. After hearing too much of such crazy talk, she felt very embarrassed!
She took a deep breath and pretended to be calm before asking, "Are you on good terms with Sister Lu?"
Lu Qingchen looked bewildered: "Sister Lu?"
"Princess Xinglan." Qin Miaoxi added.
Lu Qingchen paused, a trace of helplessness flashed across his face: "..."
How come another sister suddenly appeared? However, he still honestly confessed the whole story of how he and Lu Shiya conspired to deceive Lu Yuande.
After hearing this, Qin Miaoxi understood. The relationship between these two people was such that they would cooperate whenever there was profit to be made. They really didn't waste any resources.
Lu Qingchen's face was shy, and his eyes were hesitant to speak. He looked at Qin Miaoxi and said, "Then tonight we..."
Qin Miaoxi actually caught a hint of aggression in that look, and alarm bells rang in her heart. She hurriedly said, "Ah! You stay here, I'll sleep in the guest room."
"what?"
Lu Qingchen's face was full of disappointment. After meeting her wary gaze, he hurriedly said, "You stay here, no need to move. I'll sleep in the guest room."
Qin Miaoxi smiled slightly, with a hint of reserve, "Well, no rush."
Although she said this, her hands did not stop moving at all. In a blink of an eye, she had already put the bedding away. She stood straight at the door and said, "There's really no rush."
Lu Qingchen: "..."
This look of someone who is righteous but speaks with a righteous tone is really... a little cute.
He took the quilt, but couldn't help asking jokingly, "Mr. Qin, when did you become so playful?"
Qin Miaoxi rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "Follow me!"
"Order!"
Lu Qingchen then smiled contentedly, stopped asking questions, and turned to walk towards the guest room.
Qin Miaoxi looked at his back and felt a strange feeling in her heart. She shook her head gently, trying to dispel the thought.
Silent all night.
-------------------------------------
In the dim corner, dull footsteps echoed.
The man's eyes widened in horror and he tried to turn around and run away, but he found that his limbs were limp and powerless and he lay on the ground, unable to move.
Soon, a strong hand suddenly grabbed the back of the man's collar, and lifted him up with great force, and the sharp and cold sword was pressed against his heart.
The man's body froze instantly, and he could only make a faint "gurgling" sound in his throat. Even his breathing became rapid and difficult.
"no, do not want!"
"Only your death can atone for the mistakes you made."
In an instant, the sharp knife pierced the man's chest, and blood spurted out like a fountain, splashing on the surrounding walls and ground.
The man's body slid down involuntarily. He weakly grasped the hand holding the dagger with both hands. His eyes gradually lost their luster, and finally he collapsed in a pool of blood and could not move.
Only the bright red blood was still slowly spreading on the ground, emitting a pungent fishy smell.
