After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

Chapter 263 Lu Xingzhi: I will bear the consequences

Qiao Jingjing was extremely regretful.

Seeing this, the eldest princess looked at her closely and said, "What, can't bear it?"

Qiao Jingjing was stunned.

When he met her teasing eyes, he realized what she meant. His face immediately turned hot, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Highness, please pay attention to your identity."

"Okay, let's not talk about your bed curtains." The eldest princess curled her lips, let go of her hand, and stood up, "Let's go shopping with this princess."

Qiao Jingjing breathed a sigh of relief, but also wondered why the eldest princess was in such good spirits today?
I suddenly came to see her without saying anything, but I also wanted to go shopping.

She was confused and asked, "Your Highness, you seem to be very happy today, but what happy event have you encountered?"

"There is no happy event, but there is indeed one happy thing." The eldest princess had a smile on her face, and it was obvious that she was really happy.

Qiao Jingjing asked with interest: "What is it?"

The smile on the eldest princess's face deepened, "You probably don't know, Shangguan Xueer... had an accident yesterday."

Qiao Jingjing was surprised, "Did something happen to Miss Shangguan?"

"Yes." The eldest princess nodded, moved closer, and lowered her voice, "She was... defiled."

Qiao Jingjing's eyes widened in shock, "What?"

The eldest princess curled her lips and said, "She has evil intentions, so this is retribution."

Qiao Jingjing was surprised to see that she was not joking.

Shangguan Xueer was actually defiled?

No wonder the eldest princess is so happy.

The eldest princess and Shangguan Xueer have never dealt with each other, so they are naturally happy to see her in trouble.

But she couldn't sympathize with people like Shangguan Xueer.

You know, what happened to her last time in the palace must have something to do with Guan Xueer.

If Qin Xuan hadn't had the sense to break open the door and leave in time, the consequences would have been disastrous.

Although she didn't sympathize with Shangguan Xueer's experience, Qiao Jingjing was still curious, "Who did it?"

After all, Shangguan Xueer is the niece of the Queen Mother and lives in the palace. Who dares to be so bold and insult Shangguan Xueer?

"I'm not sure." The eldest princess shook her head, "But she took a few palace people out of the palace yesterday, and then something happened. Several palace people with her disappeared, and the valuable jewelry on her body was also missing. Gone.”

When Qiao Jingjing heard this, she guessed: "Could it be related to a few palace people?"

The eldest princess nodded, "I think so too. Even if it was not done by those palace people, they must know something. My mother has ordered people to arrest those three palace people."

"If it was really those palace people who did it, then they are too courageous." Qiao Jingjing said.

"No, this is karma." The eldest princess shook her head.

"What do you mean?" Qiao Jingjing was confused.

"Although Shangguan Xue'er is an orphan, she has been taken into the palace and taken care of by my mother since she was a child. She relies on my mother's relationship to do a lot of things.

I have seen her abuse and humiliate the palace servants who served her, making them kneel naked to learn how to bark, and often beating and scolding them. How could those palace servants not feel resentful? "The eldest princess said.

Qiao Jingjing was stunned.

Shangguan Xueer is not only vicious, but also perverted.

"So the eldest princess thinks that what happened to Shangguan Xueer when she left the palace this time was a deliberate revenge by the palace people?"

"Yes." The eldest princess nodded.

Qiao Jingjing said nothing.

Because she felt that those palace officials might not have the courage to set up Shangguan Xueer, and they would not see her. It was more like they were afraid of being offended. After all, they were serving Shangguan Xueer. If something happened to Shangguan Xueer, the Queen Mother would definitely hold them accountable, so they simply ran away.

As soon as the two of them left the house, they bumped into Lu Xingzhi who was coming back from outside.

He got out of the carriage, still wearing a navy blue official robe. He was cold and majestic, yet elegant and calm.

"Master Lu, what a coincidence." The eldest princess raised her eyebrows.

Lu Xingzhi first glanced at Qiao Jingjing who was standing next to her, then saluted her and said, "I have met the eldest princess."

"Master Lu, no courtesy." The eldest princess raised her hand, "Then, Master Lu, you can do what you want. I want to go shopping with Mrs. Ling." After saying that, she took Qiao Jingjing's hand and left.

Lu Xingzhi frowned, took a step forward, and blocked the way of the two of them, "Eldest Princess, can you get on the carriage first? I have something to tell my wife."

When the eldest princess heard this, she looked at him in disbelief and then at Qiao Jingjing, "We are not going anywhere, or are you worried that this princess will abduct Mrs. Ling?"

Lu Xingzhi did not answer, but repeated, "Eldest Princess, please get on the carriage first."

The eldest princess choked and glanced at him boredly.

He's so pedantic and old-fashioned, I really don't understand how I could have fallen in love with him before?

She looked at Qiao Jingjing and said, "I'll wait for you in the carriage, hurry up."

Qiao Jingjing was a little embarrassed.

As soon as the eldest princess left, she took a step closer to the man and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? What do you want to tell me?"

A smile flashed in Lu Xingzhi's dark eyes. He used the cover of his wide sleeves to pinch her fingertips and asked in a warm voice, "Are you feeling better?"

Realizing the meaning of his words, Qiao Jingjing's face felt hot, but she still nodded, "It's better."

"Don't leave the eldest princess alone, try to go to teahouses, restaurants, places where you can sit and rest." Lu Xingzhi explained.

When Qiao Jingjing heard this, she blinked. Is this what he wanted to tell her?
"Then...if the eldest princess wants to go to a place like Meisheng Pavilion, should I go or not?" She asked seriously.

Lu Xingzhi paused for a moment and narrowed his black eyes, "Of course you can't go."

"But I can't disobey the eldest princess." Qiao Jingjing looked troubled.

"You may disobey, but I will bear the consequences." Lu Xingzhi squeezed her fingers and said solemnly.

Seeing the solemn look on his face, Qiao Jingjing stopped teasing him and nodded obediently, "I know."

Lu Xingzhi paused and said in a low voice: "Whatever you want to buy, just buy it and let someone charge it to my account."

Qiao Jingjing had money with her. When she heard this, she did not refuse, "Yeah."

"I asked you two, can you please restrain yourself? You just got tired of it after spending the whole night last night, and you can't live without us for a moment. It's really disgusting." At this time, the eldest princess, who was sitting in the carriage, saw Qiao Jingjing for a long time. If he didn't come up, he couldn't help but lift the curtain and said impatiently.

Qiao Jingjing was a little embarrassed, broke away from Lu Xingzhi's hand, and whispered: "Then you go in, I'm leaving."

Lu Xingzhi nodded, "Well, be careful."

"Got it." Qiao Jingjing waved her hand and ran towards the eldest princess's carriage.

Lu Xingzhi watched her get into the carriage and waited for the carriage to drive away before turning around and entering the mansion.

In the carriage.

The eldest princess teased: "On weekdays, are you all so disgusting? Are you tired?" When we go out, we still have to deal with each other.

Thinking about it, she almost got goosebumps all over her body.

The corner of Qiao Jingjing's mouth twitched, "We are not numb, we are just like a normal couple."

"A normal couple is like you, going out for a walk and still looking like they are inseparable?" the eldest princess sneered coldly.

Qiao Jingjing coughed lightly, "The eldest princess won't understand now. When you and Prince Qin get married in the future, I'm afraid you will be even more disgusting than us."
