Lu Baichuan, however, refused to take advantage of this and said, "Wealth is gained through danger. Maybe you Xi Teng just like to play in the dark?"

After finishing speaking, before Danton could speak, he turned to the old emperor and the prince and said: "Your Majesty, Prince, this matter is important and must be investigated strictly. As for Princess Xiteng's request, I refuse to accept it. This is the only thing I can do in my life." One wife is enough.”

As soon as these words came out, many women present envied He Jiuniang. This woman was good-looking. Her mother-in-law treated her as her daughter, and she was able to move around the palace with ease. She was also able to help her husband gain a foothold in the court, one after another. These things are incomparable to them, and the love they receive is naturally much more than theirs.

Of course, the most heartwarming thing is Lu Baichuan's defense of He Jiuniang. No matter what He Jiuniang does, He Jiuniang can be fearless, not afraid of the world, not afraid of power, because there is always Lu Baichuan's support behind her. This is probably the case with so many men present. Only the prince can barely compare with him.

Kaya was standing not far from the couple, watching them inflicting insults on her and showing off their affection. Her heart was filled with holes. She couldn't bear the collapse anymore and ran away covering her face.

She originally wanted to say that as a princess, she could marry for Lu Baichuan, she just wanted to be an equal wife.

She felt that she had lowered her head as low as possible, as low as the dust, almost becoming a joke. The Lu family had no reason not to agree, but he still rejected her mercilessly.

He didn't even look at her in the eyes from beginning to end, which hurt her confidence again.

Not to mention the assassins brought out by He Jiuniang, she had no idea what was going on, and such a big pot was dumped on her head.

And those assassins are obviously Xi Teng people in appearance, even if they want to quibble, they are powerless.

He Jiuniang wanted to kill Xi Teng and ask Xi Teng to show more sincerity when negotiating peace to ease the conflicts caused by this assassination.

And she was just a pawn of He Jiuniang from beginning to end.

Thinking about this, she cried even more sadly. She felt that she couldn't play with He Jiuniang, and now she had caused trouble for her father, who would definitely be very angry.

However, things at the ceremony did not end just because she left. This matter was of great importance. On the one hand, Bei Yan wanted to seek justice for Jiu Niang, and on the other hand, Xi Teng also wanted to clear his name, so Denton was very worried. Cooperating with the investigation, he also offered to prevent Xi Teng's envoys from leaving the post house until the truth was revealed, in order to avoid any mistakes.

Denton is still worried that there is a mole in his team. These days, money can make people go around. If there is a mole, then he really has no shame to go back and explain to Emperor Xiteng.

Bei Yan saw that Denton was so tough, and he immediately paid attention to it. With Denton being so tough, there were only two possibilities, either Xi Teng was a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water and breaking jars, or he had some trump card in his hand, or Xi Teng They are also being exploited. The people behind the scenes just want to sow discord between the two countries and reap the benefits.

So who will the third party be?Dongting or Nantai?

For a time, the envoys from various countries had different thoughts, especially Dongting, who were now the most suspect.

However, their prince is seriously ill in bed and cannot even attend today's banquet, let alone plan anything. This matter was definitely not done by Dongting.

But, someone must believe it!

The people from Dongting looked at the people from Nantai fiercely. If this wasn't done by Xi Teng, then it was done by Nantai.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that Bei Yan directed and acted himself, just to trick Xi Teng.

Things are becoming more and more confusing, and everyone's mind is spinning.

Only He Jiuniang, after beating Kaya away, returned to her seat with a relaxed expression, showing off to Sun and the others like a victorious rooster: "How is it, I just performed well, didn't I?"

Lianhua and the others turned into little fans and little fans, nodding their heads like garlic. Only Mrs. Sun said nervously: "It's awesome, but what's the use of being awesome? Those people won't take revenge on our family, right? Also, you were assassinated." Why didn’t you tell me what happened?”

Old man Lu, who was a bit high-spirited next to him, also woke up a lot. Seeing such a scene, he was also a little at a loss. He knew that he was in trouble.

Because while talking to her daughter-in-law, her old wife stared at him with big eyes, wishing to tear him into pieces.

It's over, I can't go to bed tonight...

He Jiuniang held Ms. Sun's hand comfortingly and said, "Don't worry, Ms. Sun, these people don't dare. What's more, at this time, the only fun thing if they dare is to openly give benefits to our family!"

Mrs. Sun was successfully comforted, patted her chest and said, "That's good, that's good..."

The officials and family members nearby heard their conversation and felt speechless for a while. There were not many people who could be so arrogant when things turned out like this.

On the way back, everything was as usual. Mrs. Sun smiled at everyone, but she didn't give Old Man Lu a good look.

Old Man Lu felt very guilty. He looked at the others and his old wife. He wanted to ask what happened, but he felt that he had lost face in front of his son and daughter-in-law. He would go back and ask again.

Finally arriving at the house, the old couple hurried back to their own courtyard. He Jiuniang knew that Ms. Sun wanted to take care of her father-in-law, so she decided to let the children go to bed, while the family of three returned to the main courtyard hand in hand.

"This is what happened tonight. What did I do wrong? Why are you angry?"

Old Man Lu felt that he was very innocent. Didn't the banquet go well at the beginning? The emperor even drank with him. Why was the old woman angry at the highlight of her life?

Mrs. Sun snorted coldly and said angrily: "How dare I get angry? Go away, go away, don't bother me!"

When she was like this, Old Man Lu was even more worried. He hurriedly said with a smile: "Oh, I was wrong. It's all my fault. Then you have to let me know where I went wrong, right? I was drunk." No, I really don’t remember.”

"You are right. You are already brothers with the emperor. What can be wrong?"

Mr. Sun continued to act strangely, but Old Man Lu was stunned on the spot.

"Am I really that ignorant?"

"That's not all! You said how good you are at raising children, and you asked the emperor to send all the noble princes from the royal family to your home for you to help teach them. It's really a big statement!"

Sun rolled his eyes as he spoke, not to mention how sarcastic he looked.

Old Man Lu's expression turned petrified step by step, right?

"Did I really say that?"

Sun couldn't bear it any longer and slapped the table, which shocked Old Man Lu.

"I've told you a long time ago that you should be careful about your words and deeds outside! I even hired a grandma to teach you the rules. Is this how you learned it?"

"What you did tonight, if your son and daughter-in-law hadn't been able to speak well in front of the emperor and the prince, you old man would have been dragged out and beheaded!"

"Only your children are good and sensible. The noble sons of the royal family are not as good as yours. It's amazing that you can really brag!"

"Ask yourself with your conscience, does it have anything to do with how much money you have if the children at home are outstanding? They were taught by my third daughter-in-law. You are so weird that you want to take the credit!"

"Tomorrow the emperor will let the noble sons of the royal family come to visit. You should teach them well and I will see what kind of flowers you can teach them!"
