After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

Chapter 228 Ridiculous
Lu Xingzhi frowned, never expecting that such a thing would happen.

Just now, he was worried when he saw Qiao Jingjing not coming back for a long time. He was about to go out to look for her when a palace maid suddenly came to tell him that something had happened to Qiao Jingjing.

The palace maid's voice was not quiet, and everyone at the banquet heard it.

Some are curious, some are watching the fun, but there are also some who are genuinely concerned.

Therefore, with the emperor's permission, those people followed him to find someone.

Among them was the eldest princess.

He knew that the matter was not simple, because he also noticed that Qin Xuan was not at the seat. He did not want those people to follow him, but the emperor had spoken, and he was anxious, so he could not find a reason to refuse for the moment.

Unexpectedly, when everyone found this place, they met Qin Xuan and molested the eldest princess who was walking in front.

"what!"

Several screams of pain were heard.

Lu Xingzhi looked up.

The people who stepped forward to rescue the eldest princess were beaten out by Qin Xuan.

Xia Houxi covered his eyes.

But at this time, neither he nor Lu Xingzhi could remain indifferent. Just as they were about to step forward, they suddenly heard someone shouting: "The Duke of Qin is here."

He and Xia Houxi turned around to look, and saw Qin Guogong striding towards this side with a serious face.

The crowd backed down.

She didn't see clearly how he took action, but Qin Xuan, who was going crazy just a moment ago and no one could stop him, actually fell into his arms.

Seeing his son's embarrassed appearance, Duke Qin was furious and heartbroken.

He never expected that his son, who had always been polite, would do such a ridiculous thing.

But the matter has come to this, and it is useless for him to accuse.

He quickly took off his cloak and handed it to the eldest princess.

"His Highness was frightened."

The eldest princess took the cloak he handed over in shock and wrapped it around her body. Her eyes fell on Qin Xuan as if late.

If her eyes were knives, Qin Xuan would have been cut countless times by now.

The Duke of Qin knew that he was in the wrong and said with a solemn face: "Qin Xuan has behaved inappropriately and I have failed to teach him the right way. I am willing to accept the consequences for him!"

The eldest princess's face was ashen and she was speechless for a long time.

She has grown so big, but no one dares to be so rude to her.

This Qin Xuan usually looked so steady, and he was always polite and polite when he saw her, but today he behaved in such an unbecoming manner.

Even though she could tell that something was wrong with Qin Xuan today, she couldn't just let go of the humiliation she had just received.

She gritted her teeth and said coldly: "I will report to the emperor myself, and I will be held responsible for the prince's insult to me."

Qin Guogong didn't say anything and lowered his head, "Young son, let me do whatever you want."

His attitude made the eldest princess feel better.

"Xiahou, I think something is wrong with the prince. Please diagnose him." At this time, Lu Xingzhi said.

Xia Houxi nodded and stepped forward to check Qin Xuan's pulse.

After a while, Xia Houxi took his pulse and said with a solemn expression: "Eldest Princess, Duke of Qin, the Crown Prince of Qin has been given an extremely domineering and cruel charm drug."

When the Duke of Qin heard this, his expression softened a little.

No matter what, he didn't believe that his son would do something so unbecoming.

Now it's explained.

But soon, he frowned again.

Just because the object of his son's bullying was the eldest princess, even if he could not help himself, he could not escape the blame.

Sure enough, after hearing Xia Houxi's words, the eldest princess still looked ugly.

"The eldest princess was frightened by her late arrival for her humble position."

At this time, the guards who heard the commotion rushed over and knelt down on one knee in front of the eldest princess.

"What do I need from you?" The eldest princess was furious.

The guards did not dare to say anything anymore. In the end, the eldest princess snorted coldly and followed the palace servants away.

"Xiahou Xi, is it possible to prepare an antidote for the poison in Qin Xuan?" Qin Guogong turned to look at Xiahou Xi.

Xia Houxi nodded, "Although this medicine is powerful, if you take the antidote, you will be fine."

Duke Guo of Qin breathed a sigh of relief.

After Xiahou mentioned a few medicinal materials, he told Qin Guogong: "These herbs are available in the imperial hospital. Please take Qin Xuan to the imperial hospital quickly and let the imperial doctor prepare the antidote."

"Okay." Qin Guogong nodded and was about to leave. At this time, Qin Yue'er rushed over, "Dad, what's wrong with him?"

She looked worried on her face, but inside, she was filled with ecstasy.

It seems her plan worked.

In order to avoid suspicion, she didn't come with everyone just now, so she didn't see what happened just now.

Qin Guogong had no intention of paying attention to her at the moment.

He told Xia Houxi and Lu Xing, "Thank you very much for what happened today."

Lu Xingzhi shook his head, "I can't help much. Duke Qin should take Prince Qin to prepare the antidote as soon as possible."

Duke Guo of Qin didn't say anything more and took Qin Xuan away.

As soon as the father and son left, there was no excitement to watch and everyone dispersed.

When Qin Yue'er heard that the antidote was being prepared, she noticed something was wrong. At this time, she glanced around and didn't see Qiao Jingjing. She suddenly felt something bad in her heart, especially when she saw Lu Xingzhi was so calm. There is no shame in catching my wife cheating on me.

Her heart sank. Did the plan fail?
"Mr. Xiahou, my brother...what's wrong with him?" She looked anxious and worried.

Xia Houxi glanced at her, shrugged and said, "I don't know either. You can ask your father."

Qin Yue'er choked and turned to look at Lu Xingzhi, "By the way, Master Lu came out to look for Mrs. Lu. Have you found her?"

After being reminded by her, Xia Houxi slapped his head and then remembered this, "Yes, Lao Lu, aren't we going to find Madam-in-law?"

Lu Xingzhi glanced at Qin Yuer lightly.

Qin Yue'er felt guilty, "I, I went to see my brother." After saying that, he left on his own.

After she left, Lu Xingzhi said to Xia Houxi, "Let's go."

"Where to go?" Xia Houxi asked quickly.

"Go and have a look in front." Lu Xingzhi said calmly.

Xia Houxi was keenly aware of something.

Qin Xuan, who was drugged, and his wife, who had not returned for a long time.

These two things are always inextricably connected.

"You said Qin Xuan, he is so good, why did he take the beauty drug?"

Lu Xingzhi said nothing, but he felt more worried in his heart.

He walked forward quickly.

Xia Houxi quickly followed.

"Hey, there are blood stains on the road." After walking a few steps, Xia Houxi suddenly stared at the road.

Lu Xingzhi also noticed.

The two of them followed the blood trail and then arrived at the side hall where Qiao Jingjing had been staying.

When he saw the door that fell to the ground, Xia Houxi was speechless, "What just happened here? Why did the door fall down?"

Lu Xingzhijun's face tightened and he quickly entered the room without saying anything.

He frowned when he saw a pool of blood on the ground.

"Why so much blood?" Xia Houxi asked in surprise.

"It belongs to Qin Xuan." Lu Xing knew.

Just now, he noticed that there was an injury on Qin Xuan's arm. Combined with the blood stains along the way, it was not difficult to deduce that the blood was from Qin Xuan's body.

"You mean, Qin Xuan was trapped here just now and fought with others?" Xia Houxi picked up the arrow in the corner and frowned.
