Nalan helped Lu Luoxi get out of the carriage, and the third princess also followed.

The steward of the other courtyard hurriedly greeted him.

"The old slave knocks to see the eldest princess and the third princess."

Lu Luoxi nodded dignifiedly, "Get up." ”

With a smile on his face, the steward welcomed the two inside.

"Concubine Qi has been waiting for the princess for a long time, princess, please come in."

Lu Luoxi glanced at the housekeeper slightly strangely, Concubine Qi will wait for her?

Then I saw that there was a maid at the door who specialized in receiving posts.

When I turned around, I saw the third princess take out the post from her arms and hand it over.

Lu Luoxi coughed lightly and swaggered in.

The housekeeper and the maid were stunned for a moment, and they didn't stop them.

When he finally walked into the courtyard, Lu Luoxi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and followed the maid into the courtyard.

The Beijing suburb courtyard is the royal palace given by the emperor to Concubine Qi, and it is magnificent and magnificent.

In the summer, the courtyard is full of flowers, flowing water bridges, lotus jasper.

It's like you've come to a paradise.

The flower party was held in the east of the annex - Baihuayuan.

Lu Luoxi walked in hand with the third princess for a long time, and finally arrived in the middle of this flower party.

Lu Luoxi said inadvertently.

"For large and small banquets in Beijing, I'm afraid that only Concubine Qi's flower party must have a post before entering."

All year round in the capital, every household is popular to hold a banquet, a flower viewing party, and a poetry appreciation party, adding up to not a hundred, but also seventy or eighty.

You don't have to have a post to enter.

Only Concubine Qi's flower party is an exception.

The third princess pondered for a moment, and then opened her mouth to explain.

"Concubine Qi's flower club is more special, and it is very famous in Beijing, I am afraid that it is to prevent some indiscriminate people from sneaking in, so it is stricter."

The two of them walked towards the flower party as they spoke.

Concubine Qi was chatting with several ladies of the family in the main hall, and there was a burst of laughter from time to time.

The surrounding ladies enthusiastically responded to the topic of Concubine Qi.

As soon as Lu Luoxi came in, he saluted in a proper manner.

"Luo Xi meets the concubine."

Concubine Qi's eyes dimmed, and she opened her mouth.

"Why is it so late, everyone has been waiting for a long time."

seems to be a casual sentence, but in fact she is saying that she doesn't understand the rules and makes so many people wait.

Lu Luoxi's eyes flashed, and he let out a long sigh.

"I just met two official women bullying the third sister on the street, so I said a few words of help, but I didn't expect it to be late."

After that, he glanced at the room seemingly unintentionally.

The two Qi family cousins didn't expect Lu Luoxi to say this on such an occasion.

His face suddenly turned pale, and his eyes dodged.

"What girl is so unruly that she dares to bully the princess!"

Concubine Qi pretended to be angry, and scolded with a sinking face.

"Oh, come out and admit your mistake, and this matter should be over."

Lu Luoxi's eyes swept over, pretending to be generous.

The two cousins of the Qi family knelt down with a thud.

"Auntie, it's all a misunderstanding, it's the third princess's carriage that broke down in the middle of the road, we just asked a few words..."

Lu Luoxi's expression froze, "Oh, did you ask a few words?" ”

"Xiaolian, tell me, what did the two cousins ask?"

Xiaolian hurriedly stepped forward, knelt on the ground, and was about to speak.

Concubine Qi's eyes darkened twice when she heard this, her expression changed again and again, and she hurriedly shouted angrily, "Enough!" ”

"You two are not angry, quickly apologize to the third princess, go home and think about copying the female ring a hundred times behind closed doors!"

She settled the matter with one blow.

As soon as she looked at the two girls of her Qi family, Concubine Qi knew.

The two of them must have seen that the third princess was cowardly and bullied a few words, and if no one poked out this matter, it would be over.

But once someone comes up with something to say, it must be their fault.

She glanced sharply at the two girls in her own house.

Frightened, the two of them shrank back one after another.

After settling it, Concubine Qi looked at the third princess with a gentle expression.

"Luo Juan, you have been wronged, in the future, when you encounter this kind of thing, you still have to show the majesty of the princess."

These words were knocked on and on, and the third princess lowered her head more and more, and finally nodded silently.

"Yes, Princess."

"Alright, that's the end of the matter."

"Luoxi, let's go out and play, there are young people outside, and you have to talk."

Concubine Qi suppressed the anger in her heart, opened her mouth in a strange tone, and blasted the two away.

Lu Luoxi nodded obediently, saluted and left with the third princess.

Lu Luoxi was not interested in this flower party, and said hello to the third princess.

So he got up and walked alone to the lake to the south.

The irritability of summer, with the cool breeze by the lake, becomes much more comfortable.

Lu Luoxi found a shade and sat down on the stone.

Take advantage of the cool breeze and think about the recent events.

The power given by my uncle is also being understood step by step.

As I got to know better, I slowly understood the whole thing.

The former uncle exerted a lot of effort to get the younger brother to sit in that position.

However, in addition to the crown prince, there are also three princes in the court, who are all favorable competitors.

The emperor also took a fancy to these two sons.

Judging from this situation, there is a high probability that the poison of the mother concubine is the prince's faction or the three princes' faction.

Thinking about it, Lu Luoxi's thinking became clearer and clearer.

That's when it happened.

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps on the other side of the lake.

Qiu Lu immediately moved to Lu Luoxi's side and put her in the encirclement.

The next moment, I saw Xi'er and another palace maid, holding something in their arms.

Sneaking to the southernmost point.

"Xi'er, hurry up, this matter explained by Niangniang is done, and we have hope of leaving the palace."

The round-faced palace maid next to Xi'er had a smile on her face, and kept urging Xi'er behind her.

"Sister Xiaoyu, where is this thing going to be buried?"

Xi'er hesitated for a moment and looked at the small package in her arms.

"Find the most remote place and destroy it..."

Xiao Yu said as she urged Xi'er to hurry up.

Lu Luoxi's eyes rolled and motioned for Qiu Lu to follow.

Qiu Lu glanced at her with some dissatisfaction.

The meaning is obvious, I am protecting you, what will you do if I leave.

Lu Luoxi shook his head and signaled, he is here, don't worry.

After signaling, he glared at Qiu Lu.

Qiu Lu was helpless, and followed with a dodge.

Lu Luoxi still has some confidence in his skills.

After a moment's thought, she followed a few people not far behind.

As soon as I walked through a rockery, I couldn't see a few people.

Lu Luoxi was dizzy by the big garden.

He walked casually, thinking that he could ask someone he met, so he went to the front hall to wait for Qiu Lu first, so as to save himself from wandering aimlessly alone.

Just thinking about it.

Suddenly, I noticed a dark shadow not far away, which looked very similar to Qiu Lu's figure.

Lu Luoxi raised his feet and followed.
