Chapter 272 Embroidered Pillow
At this time, Xiao Ruan was wearing a thick cloak and standing with Lu Heng in the plum garden of the Hou Mansion, looking at a certain woman in the distance, without a smile on her face.

"Is this the Su Qingqing who made you angry?"

Lu Heng followed Xiao Ran's gaze, and saw a woman in a rouge-colored cloak in the distance, who was about to ask the servants around her to help her fold plum blossoms.

The woman's critical and arrogant voice can be heard from such a distance, and it seems that she is not an easy character to get along with.

Touching his chin and looking at the woman for a while, Lu Heng turned his mouth aside with great disdain: "I still think she is such a beautiful woman, how could Brother Huo fall in love with such a mean and willful woman? You Wait, I'm going to meet her right now!"

"Don't worry about it, let's go another way."

Xiao Ruan saw that Lu Heng was going to look for her as he said that, she immediately stopped her, turned around and turned to the opposite direction to Su Qingqing.

"No way, you are the dignified Madam of the Hou Mansion, how could you allow such a person to run amok in your mansion!"

Lu Heng yelled in disapproval, trying to persuade Xiao Ruan to turn around, as if he wanted to help her vent her anger.

She hadn't seen Xiao Ruan for a few days, but when she came here today, she found that Xiao Ruan had a sad face, as if she had hidden a lot of thoughts and was unhappy.

After inquiring about Zhuyun, I found out that there is an extra cousin, Su Qingqing, in Hou's residence.

She was going to drag Xiao Ruan out of the house to relax, but now she happened to meet Su Qingqing, wouldn't it be a good time to teach her a lesson and vent her anger for Xiao Ruan?
"As long as she dares to be arrogant in front of me, I will naturally not spare her. But now her mind is all on how to please Huo Xun, why should I ask for trouble?"

"Hey! My eldest lady, I wonder if your head has been frozen too. This woman has put all her thoughts into pleasing Brother Huo. Why are you not in a hurry? If Huo Xun is really bewitched by her, you When crying! Don't forget, you are pregnant now!"

Lu Heng's eyes widened in surprise, while Xiao Ruan's eyelashes trembled a few times without showing any signs of anxiety.

"I talked to you, did you hear it? If this matter got to grandma's ears, wouldn't she persuade you like this?"

Lu Heng was worried that Xiao Ruan would not care and he had to remind him, and was about to move out Mrs. Lu, but the woman opposite suddenly stopped and turned around.

"The prince's marriage has already been decided? When is it decided?"

Lu Heng was indignant because of Su Qingqing, when Xiao Ran mentioned his marriage, he was stunned for a moment, his face flushed immediately, and he nodded: "This time the emperor finally officially agreed to our marriage, and the wedding date is set at next fall."

"That's all very well, but why can't it be tomorrow spring?"

"This is an auspicious day for my grandfather..."

Lu Heng subconsciously said a few words, suddenly felt something was wrong, raised his eyes to look at Xiao Ran, and saw the corner of her mouth curled up.The little one has malicious intentions.

After a while, Lu Heng realized that Xiao Ran was joking about his eagerness to marry the prince because of what happened the last time the Lu family met, so he blushed and gave her a sideways glance.

"How dare you laugh at me, see if I don't tell grandma about the fact that you have a little cousin here."

After Lu Heng finished speaking, he suddenly realized that his words were not the slightest threat, but seeing Xiao Ruan stepping onto a gazebo in Meilin with a smile on his face, he immediately followed.

There was a fragrance of cold plums in his tone, and the servants guarding the plum garden saw Xiao Ran and the others approaching, and immediately brought him hot tea.

In the midst of the tea atmosphere, Xiao Ran's face was faintly visible. Lu Heng looked into the distance and found that Su Qingqing's figure had disappeared.Lu Heng's eyes flickered suddenly, and he pursed his lips, seemingly speaking unintentionally.

"Ruan Ruan knows that a strange thing happened in the court yesterday."

"is it?"

Holding the tea bowl in her hand, Xiao Ruan stared intently at a very brilliant yellow plum tree in bloom not far away, her mind was subconsciously empty, when she suddenly heard Lu Heng's words, she subconsciously cooperated with the inquiry.

"I've heard that there was a dispute between the crown prince and Zhao Yan yesterday. The emperor asked Brother Huo for his opinion, but he unexpectedly supported Prince Huai. What excitement!"

As soon as he heard the word "Huaiwang", Xiao Ruan's expression paused, and he was completely separated from the endless and chaotic thoughts.

"Oh, let me tell you, Brother Huo must have made such an amazing move in court because he was unhappy!"

Seeing Xiao Ran turn his eyes to himself suddenly, Lu Heng's eyes dodged slightly, and then looked straight back: "Ruan Ruan, don't think I'm nagging, you still have to solve Su Qingqing's matter as soon as possible, if the future really comes It’s too late to recover.”

Lu Heng's voice gradually changed from a relaxed teasing to a serious advice. It was clearly a caring word, but Xiao Ruan's heart skipped a beat, and he almost dropped the teacup in his hand.Xiao Ruan looked at the serious look of Lu Heng's assassin, and there was something inexplicable in his eyes.

In order to hide her gaffe, Xiao Ruan immediately put the tea bowl on the table, and said to Lu Heng seriously: "Thank you, Sister Heng, for reminding me, but Su Qingqing really doesn't need to care about this, other than she is constantly causing trouble, I really don't see anything that Huo Xun likes."

"Oh, I'm actually just an outsider. Sister Ruan, it's good that you know it yourself. In short, you should know that what I just said is out of good intentions and I just want to help you."

Seemingly sensing that the atmosphere between the two had suddenly become somewhat serious, Lu Heng suddenly let out a burst of laughter in an attempt to relieve it. At this moment, a group of people also came to the gazebo where Xiao Ruan was.

"Hey, who was I sitting here at that time, so it was Madam? Why, don't you feel cold? If you accidentally fell to the ground, it would be a lifetime regret!"

As soon as Su Qingqing saw Xiao Ran, she raised her chin, her eyes were full of contempt.

"Bold girl, you dare to talk to us like that, come here, give me a slap!"

Before Xiao Ruan could reply, Lu Heng yelled at Su Qingqing, and the maid behind her immediately stepped forward and mercilessly slapped Su Qingqing twice.

"You, who are you! You dare to attack me, I will fight with you!"

Su Qingqing absolutely did not expect to meet a woman like Lu Heng who would hit someone without saying a word. After being slapped by these two slaps, she felt dizzy and her ears rang.

"It's just in time! Let me see if you dare to think about Brother Huo in the future!"

Seeing Su Qingqing rushing forward regardless, Lu Heng suddenly showed a successful smile at the corner of his mouth, and rolled up his sleeves a few times.Just when Su Qingqing was about to catch her, she stretched out her foot suddenly, and Su Qingqing immediately fell on the ground and fell like a dog eating snow, causing everyone around to laugh out loud.

"You! How dare you treat me like this, I must tell Brother Xun to make you look good!"

Su Qingqing used to be a delicate young lady in Cangzhou, where did she encounter such treatment?

For a while, she fixed her eyes on Lu Heng, as if she wanted to write down her appearance.

"Okay, I, Lu Heng, don't change my name when I'm going, or my surname when I sit. You just tell me Brother Huo. The person who beat you today is the daughter of Taifu Lu's family, the emperor's established princess. Let's see if Brother Huo will do it because of you." Come and teach me."

After saying that, Lu Heng suddenly raised his foot, stepped on the stone bench and looked at Su Qingqing sharply.Xiao Ruan behind her was taken aback when she heard Lu Heng's words.

"You, you...you wait..."

Su Qingqing's heart choked for no reason when she heard Lu Heng's self-introduction of her family name, her mouth opened into a circle, and she was speechless for a long time.

After looking at Xiao Ruan and Liu Heng's faces several times, he gradually believed in Lu Heng's identity. His little face, which was originally flushed from the cold, instantly turned pale.Throwing down a threat with no deterrent effect, he hurriedly left with the little maid in a panic.

"So this Su Qingqing is really an embroidered pillow, isn't it just a fancy pillow? Well, I can finally feel at ease now!"

Lu Heng taught Su Qingqing a lesson for Xiao Ruan, and finally got what he wanted, and burst out laughing out of satisfaction.

On the other side, Xiao Ruan looked at Su Qingqing's leaving figure, and suddenly turned the maid to the maid next to Lu Heng, and fell into deep thought.

She discovered early in the morning that Su Qingqing looked fierce and tyrannical on the outside, but she was actually just a paper tiger, so she didn't care at all.

However, Lu Heng's performance today surprised her.

She never knew when there were two such powerful maids by Lu Heng's side.

The two maids stood upright, with arrogance in their eyes, and they were most likely the same as Li Yun, the ones the prince arranged to protect her.

More importantly, what Lu Heng said in the gazebo today was completely inconsistent with her usual carelessness.

She just deliberately mentioned that Huo Xun helped Zhao Yan in the court hall, which surprised people, and joked that Huo Xun was stimulated, but she was actually testing herself.Because of Lu Heng's temperament in the past, it was absolutely impossible to discuss court matters with him.

Afterwards, she persuaded herself not to make Huo Xun like Su Qingqing. This was obviously comparing Su Qingqing to Zhao Yan, but she actually wanted Xiao Ruan to persuade Huo Xun not to betray the prince and turn to Zhao Yan!
What surprised Xiao Ruanning even more was that Lu Heng beat Su Qingqing angrily in the name of Mrs. Lu's daughter and the princess, which was obviously a warning.

If Lu Heng wanted to teach Su Qingqing a lesson for him before he came to the pavilion, it was because he wanted to vent his anger.

So now she asked someone to beat Su Qingqing, wasn't she telling herself that if Huo Xun betrayed the prince, he would be punished like Su Qingqing in the end!

Xiao Ruan thought deeply about what happened just now with Lu Heng, her heart felt a little cold for a moment, and when she looked at Lu Heng again, there was something more in her eyes.

"Thank you, Sister Heng, for your help. I believe that with the lesson you taught, she will know what it means to be honest in the future."

Like a secret signal, Lu Heng immediately nodded with a smile: "Ruan Ruan, you are being polite, we sisters, who is with whom? No matter what happens to you, I will naturally cover you."
