Liang Huan gasped and looked over. The person who was supposed to be lying on the bed had a dark face and sat upright.

"Sir, are you awake?" Liang Huanxu held his shoulders, his face wrinkled and he wanted to laugh but couldn't.

Lu Xiu closed his eyes, breathing heavily in his chest.

Zhou Yun looked at him with a ghostly expression, "Why didn't I know you? You have broken sleeves, you——"

He wanted to ask further, but finally shut up under Lu Xiu's dark and stern eyes.

Lu Xiu turned his face slightly to look at her, his dark eyes were cold and cold, "Why don't you ask me directly if you have questions? Who said I was--"

He paused, as if suppressing his anger, his face became extremely gloomy.

Liang Huan lowered his eyes, looking around randomly without any focus.

Seeing her obediently lowering her head, her black hair was scattered, and only her sharp white chin was exposed, like a child who bowed her head to admit her mistake, her eyes touched the re-bandaged wound, and the air that was stuck in her chest disappeared inexplicably.

"You look like this, you really have a lot to worry about."

Lu Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly. A girl from an ordinary family would have to be nursed for a few days if she was a little sick and had a fever. She was very energetic, and even the injury to her leg from an arrow could not hinder her enthusiasm for doing things.

Liang Huan blinked, using his usual sarcastic tone. Hearing the meaning of these words, he seemed to have woken up a long time ago, but where did he start hearing this?

But now that he already knows, the next thing to bet on is the friendship between him and Zhou Yun...

Over there, Lu Xiu sighed and said in a deep voice, "I'm not."

Liang Huan groaned and raised her eyelids to look at him again, only to see that he was already looking at Zhou Yun.

"You want me to find-" Lu Xiu paused, "The Queen Mother?"

Zhou Yun said, "It's really inconvenient for us to interfere in the affairs of the harem. I think we can use the name of the prince -"

"No!"

Before Zhou Yun could finish speaking, Liang Huan hurriedly interrupted.

They both looked at her.

Lu Xiu remained silent, and Zhou Yun wondered, "Why? Since the prince is the queen's son, doesn't it make sense to change his name?"

"We still don't know who is behind this matter. The enemy is hidden and we are clear, which is really a disadvantage. I am already a thorn in their side that they want to get rid of, so why bother involving one more person?

What's more, the prince is only a child's age and has little experience in harem matters. "

"But there is no other way now." Zhou Yun frowned slightly, why didn't he know this?

Liang Huan secretly glanced at Lu Xiu and then said, "I have a suggestion. Instead of letting the queen be trapped in the palace and isolated, why not find an opportunity to ask the emperor to leave the palace. The empress is feeling unwell outside the palace and it is too late to invite her. An imperial doctor, but a palace doctor is enough..."

After saying this, Zhou Yun's eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly as he looked at her.

Lu Xiu looked at her, with a cold smile on his lips, "Opportunity, what kind of opportunity are you looking for?"

His smile was cold and his voice was even colder.

Liang Huan glanced at him timidly, "Didn't you happen to have an affair with Cao Sanniang——"

Lu Xiu nodded slightly and looked at her coldly, "Very good."

"Yeah, I think it's good too, it's indeed good," Zhou Yun nodded to Lu Xiuzhi, and then continued, "This matter should not be delayed for a long time, it needs to be dealt with as soon as possible -"

"It's so late, why don't you go back?"

Looking at Lu Xiu's expressionless face, Zhou Yun was stunned, "Aren't you thinking of a solution?"

Liang Huan shrank his neck, turned his face and sighed, "My lord has not recovered from the illness yet. We can think of a way now, and we can continue the discussion tomorrow. There is only one thing. I am injured and cannot enter the palace. The medicine I have prepared needs the prince's help." Transfer.”

Zhou Yun immediately said, "I'll pick it up tomorrow."

Lu Xiu raised his brows and said coldly, "No, I'll have someone deliver it to you."

Zhou Yun thought about it. There was no need to make a special trip to get the medicine. It would be better to finish the matters at hand as soon as possible and come over early to discuss. Then he said, "Then I will come later."

Lu Xiu was noncommittal.

Liang Huan smiled and nodded.

Zhou Yun left with half a heart relieved.

Liang Huan stood up holding on to the handrail, pointed at the door, and forced a smile, "Sir, please rest, I'm going out too, I'm injured——"

She took two breaths and her face turned pale, as if she was in unbearable pain.

Lu Xiu had a smile on his face, "Are you anxious now?"

Liang Huan's mouth was half-opened, she had managed to hold on until now!

"sit down."

It wasn't that Liang Huan didn't want to refuse, but his face turned cold and he had no choice but to sit back obediently.

"I wonder if you have any other instructions, sir?"

Lu Xiu glanced at her and sneered, "You know everything!"

Liang Huan buried his head, "I wonder what you mean, sir?"

She is used to pretending to be stupid, and Lu Xiu had already expected it, "The prince is inexperienced, but he is the crown prince after all, so how can he be compared to ordinary children? Why did you stop him?"

Liang Huan's eyelashes trembled slightly.

Lu Xiu chuckled, "You clearly suspect that the person behind this is either the Lord or the Queen Mother, and you don't want the prince to take the risk of getting involved. You are afraid that this matter is a trap specially designed for him, just to shake the crown prince's position."

Liang Huan sighed secretly.

"You even doubt me."

Liang Huan's eyes widened, "No -"

Lu Xiu waved his hand and said, "Don't deny it yet. If you suspect that the Queen Mother did it, it must have been the Lu family who was behind it, and I will only stand by the Lu family."

Liang Huan knew that she couldn't hide it from him, so she could only confess, "I'm not doubting you, it's just that it involves family interests. How can you break up with the Lu family?"

Lu Xiu raised his lips and chuckled, "Then why are you suspicious of Mr. Lu?"

Liang Huan's eyes dimmed.

In his previous life, Lu Xiu married Cao Luyun, but after Wang Su's incident, Cao Xiang and others were executed. This marriage did not have any effect on the Lu family. Gao Qian could also use the Lu family to suppress the Wang family.

However, in this life, because of her intervention, Prime Minister Cao and his colleagues were safe, but the Wang family, who was used to check the Cao family, fell. Now that the Cao family and the Lu family are getting married again, the combined power of the two parties is not terrible. Which emperor can feel at ease?

If we can't protect Gao Qian, the emperor may not have as many supporters as the prince!

Gao Qian was so suspicious, how could he not think of this level? If he could think of it, how could he not think of a way to deal with it by abolishing the prince, establishing a new prince, and cultivating new forces?

But what the high potential thought of, how could the Queen Mother and Mr. Lu not think of it?

The Lu family has been able to achieve glory from the previous dynasty to the present, so how can it not be possible to uncover the troubles here?

Our family has always known how to be prepared for danger in times of peace. Instead of inviting the emperor's suspicions, it is better to take a preemptive strike and accept the emperor's marriage on the surface, but in fact support the deposing of the prince and weaken the Cao family. This not only eliminates the emperor's suspicion, but also preserves the Lu family.

Seeing her silence, Lu Xiu added, "What you said to me that night when you handed the secret seal to Prime Minister Cao was not entirely to excuse yourself."

Liang Huan nodded, "Yes."

Lu Xiu frowned, "Why do you see these things so clearly?"

A boudoir girl tried every means to get into the palace, and she knew everything about the court affairs. It really makes people doubt her true intentions!
