Hearing this, Lu Lianzhi's entire face turned pale. She stared at Lu Shangxuan in disbelief, wanting him to give her a reasonable explanation.

However, Lu Shangxuan just frowned and looked at Dou Lianyi's leaving back until he could no longer see her.

Strange, when did she get so much blood stains on her body?

Why didn't he even notice it at all?

It must be that the long dress she wore today was so bright that it covered up the blood stains!
When he thought that just now he was still in the carriage talking bad things about the eunuch Duan Wujiu to Dou Lianyi, without paying any attention to this, Lu Shangxuan felt some complicated emotions in his heart for the first time.

"And I don't know what my sister-in-law did. She smells so fishy and bloody that it's really scary."

Lu Lianzhi didn't realize that the more she said this, the more ugly Lu Shangxuan's face became.

After hearing the end, Lu Shangxuan took a deep breath, turned his face and glanced at Lu Lianzhi, scolded with a livid face: "That's enough! How long will you continue to talk nonsense? I also smell of blood, do you want to make you feel that way? Are you scared?"

"Brother, why are you like that woman?"

Lu Lianzhi looked at Lu Shangxuan in shock, as if she didn't understand why he suddenly said such words.

"Okay, stop talking, I'm tired too."

Lu Shangxuan raised his hand casually to stop Lu Lianzhi's unfinished words, then turned and walked towards his yard.

"elder brother!"

Lu Lianzhi was so anxious that she shouted from behind, but Lu Shangxuan didn't even look back.

The furious Lu Lianzhi clenched her fists, a look of cruelty flashing in her eyes.

Something must have happened at the celebration banquet to make my brother become so abnormal!

Thinking of this, Lu Lianzhi waved to Li Ke, who had been waiting there not far away.

"Second miss."

Li Ke immediately stepped forward and called to Lu Lianzhi with his head bowed respectfully.

"I want you to go find out for me now what exactly happened at the celebration banquet and why she smells so strongly of blood."

"Yes, Miss Second, the younger one will go immediately."

It wasn't until the evening that Li Ke knocked on Lu Lianzhi's door when no one was around.

"Come in."

After a while, Lu Lianzhi's voice came out coldly from the room.

After Li Ke looked around carefully again, he lowered his head and opened the door and walked in.

The yellow ripe incense was burning in the room, and the green smoke drifted straight to the window.

The grade of this incense is far inferior to the ambergris that was lit in Dou Lianyi's house. It can be seen that Lu Lianzhi's status in the prince's palace is now far lower than before.

Just when Li Ke was thinking about this, Lu Lianzhi just opened the bead curtain from the back room and walked out.

He quickly suppressed his inner speculations and knelt down with his eyebrows lowered, leaving his eyes greedily staring at Lu Lianzhi's bumps and bumps under the candlelight that could not be covered up by ordinary clothes.Lu Lianzhi was not aware of Li Ke's evil intentions towards her. She just picked up a piece of brocade fur from the screen and put it on her body, then came to the main seat and sat down.

"Second Miss, we have found out what happened at the celebration banquet. The eldest princess was pushed to the ground by the sixth prince's youngest son, and her life and the fetus in her belly were almost ruined."

"Nearly? Does that mean he was rescued? Wait, does the smell of blood on Dou Lianyi's body have something to do with this?"

Lu Lianzhi thought very quickly and guessed the joints at once.

And Li Ke also nodded and flattered: "Sure enough, the second young lady is still smart. This matter is indeed related to the young lady. It was the young lady who saved the eldest princess and her unborn child. I heard that General Xiao originally wanted to put the princess into the hands of the young lady." The young lady wanted to stay and reward her according to her merits, but she refused."

"Why did she refuse? Isn't this a great opportunity to gain face for the county prince's palace and for my brother?"

Lu Lianzhi frowned and couldn't figure it out. She took the pear blossom wine on the table and poured herself a full cup.

"I don't believe that she is not interested in General Xiao's reward at all. Even if it is true, what about the eldest princess's reward? From the palace, from the emperor, from the consort, is she really not interested at all in this world of wealth? "

Seeing Lu Lianzhi talking to herself, Li Ke couldn't help but said, "Could it be that the young lady has other ideas?"

"What do you mean by other ideas?"

Lu Lianzhi immediately became interested in these words. She turned her head and stared at Li Ke without blinking, wanting to hear what he meant.

"Second Miss, didn't you say that the young master has been behaving strangely since he came back from the celebration banquet? Could it be that the young madam's actions made the young master interested, so that the young master wanted to know what the young madam was thinking, so he Will you behave differently than before?"

Li Ke's explanation successfully made Lu Lianzhi's face sink. She put down the wine glass in her hand hard, and a few drops of wine splashed out.

One drop happened to fall on Li Ke's face. He lowered his head and stuck out his tongue to lick it with some fascination.

"You mean that bitch did this on purpose to attract my brother's attention!"

"Second young lady, please don't be angry. I really don't dare to speak nonsense about my master's behavior, but I really can't bear to see the second young lady so sad for the young master."

Seeing that a lowly servant could be so considerate of himself, yet Lu Shangxuan could leave him without looking back, Lu Lianzhi stared down at the clear pear blossom wine in the sapphire wine glass, and suddenly felt a little sad.

However, the next second, the confusion in her eyes disappeared again, and she turned to glance at Li Ke condescendingly and smiled coldly.

"Which of your eyes saw that I was sad? What do you, a servant, know? Don't be too self-righteous!"

"Yes, the little one is talking too much."

Hearing this, Li Ke immediately shut his mouth obediently.

Seeing Li Ke being so obedient, Lu Lianzhi's mood immediately improved a lot. She slowly placed the sapphire wine glass between her lips and slightly wetted the tip of her tongue.

After a while, she sneered, as if she suddenly understood something, and whispered: "But your guess is right. In addition to using this method to attract her brother's attention, that bitch also What can I do? What can a bitch who only deserves to give birth to a bastard have to fight with me?"

"bastard?"

This word made Li Ke stunned for a moment. He obviously didn't know about this long-shuttered secret of the county prince's palace.

"This is a scandal. It's normal that you don't understand." Lu Lianzhi drank the pear blossom wine in the cup, and then murmured to Li Ke in a low voice as if she wanted to take revenge on someone: "You should have heard of that Bitch had a child before, right?”

Li Ke was shocked when he heard this. Seeing that Lu Lianzhi didn't speak again for a long time, he carefully whispered: "I've heard about this before."
