Fu Guiyun lifted the curtain to look, and saw a man in white walking past the carriage very calmly, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Soon, someone else hurriedly caught up.

Seeing that the man was Tingxu who was beside the prince, Fu Guiyun was surprised for a while.

Cheng Kui deliberately stopped the carriage in the middle of the road, jumped off the horse nonchalantly, and greeted the group of people who were chasing after him with a smile: "Hey, Tingxu, when did you become so considerate that you even thought of coming to meet the Crown Prince's wife? But did the Crown Prince arrange for you to come?"

Ting Xu was blocked from view by him, but he still looked forward and around, but when he saw the Crown Prince's Consort in the carriage, he could only bow respectfully: "Why is the Crown Prince's Consort here?"

"I accompanied the Crown Princess to Lancheng to inspect the manor that the Princess gave me as a reward."

Cheng Kui answered for him, then stared at Ting Xu and asked, pretending not to know, "Why are you here if you are not protecting the prince?"

"Just now, an assassin tried to kill the prince and Miss Huaixi on the official road. Miss Huaixi is now seriously injured. We are here to capture the assassin."

Tingxu answered absentmindedly, his eyes still looking around.

"Is there an assassin?"

Cheng Kui immediately frowned, "What should we do? The Crown Prince's wife came out without any guards. If anything happens, how can we explain to the Prince and Princess when we return?"

Tingxu could naturally hear the hidden meaning in his words, he was asking him to escort the Crown Prince's wife.

Even though he was not very perceptive, he knew who was superior and who was inferior in the palace, so he quickly responded, "Don't worry, Princess. I will personally escort you back to the city."

"Good work."

Fu Guiyun had already guessed what was going on, so he didn't refuse. He lowered the curtain and let Tingxu and his group continue on their journey.

Thinking of what Lu Linfeng said when he left, she realized now that this guy was doing great things quietly.

I'm afraid that the man in white just now was the assassin he sent.

But why would he want to embarrass a woman?

Even if the prince likes her, there were Du Jiuniang and Yun Ling before, and no matter how capable a woman is now, she would not be able to compete with these two.

Full of confusion, she returned to the palace in a depressed mood.

As soon as I got off the carriage, I heard that the prince had called all the palace doctors to his courtyard.

Tingxu looked at Fu Guiyun and said with an embarrassed look, "The Crown Prince's wife has returned home safely. I will go and report to the Crown Prince now."

Fu Guiyun nodded slightly and led Cheng Kui back to Chuxian Palace.

When they got to his bedroom, Fu Guiyun asked Cheng Kui in a stern voice: "Tell me, little Kuizi, what's going on?"

Cheng Kui suddenly became hesitant: "My little slave...I don't know."

"You still dare to cover up for others?" Fu Guiyun's eyes were gloomy, which made Cheng Kui feel frightened.

"The eldest and fourth sons also don't want any more dirty people to infiltrate their mansion."

Seeing that the Crown Prince's Consort was angry, he told the truth: "Besides, the Crown Prince's Consort and the Crown Prince finally got rid of Yunling's bond, so how can we allow people with ulterior motives to set foot in the mansion again."

Having said that, he reported Chu Huaixi's situation in detail to the Crown Prince's Consort.

"Change your face?"

Fu Guiyun felt a little frightened just by listening to it.

Our bodies and hair are given by our parents. This woman is, after all, the daughter of an official, yet she disregards filial piety, brotherhood, and etiquette and damages her own skin and appearance.

Moreover, it is hard to imagine how much torture she must have endured in order to replace her original face with a copy that does not belong to her.

This is indeed a bit sinister.

I don’t know what this person is trying to achieve.

Is it just for the favor of Master Bo Shi?

That couldn't be more stupid.

"I am very grateful that you two gentlemen have such a heart, but Miss Huaixi is just a woman. No matter what her purpose is, you should not do such an extreme thing."

Fu Guiyun said: "If we hurt the brotherhood because of this, we will only destroy our foundation."

Furthermore, if this person was sent by the emperor to cause trouble in the palace, the actions of the three brothers would only make the emperor more pleased.

Thinking of this, she immediately told Cheng Kui, "This matter ends here today. Tell the two young masters not to think of becoming an enemy of Miss Huai Xi anymore."

Cheng Kui felt sad when he heard this. The Crown Prince's Consort always only considered the palace, but she was still a woman after all.

But this was the Crown Prince's wife's instruction after all, so he could only obey the order and go find the Fourth Young Master.

At this time, Lu Linfeng and Lu Linzhi were sitting idly in the room of the chief secretary of the palace drinking tea. When they saw Cheng Kui coming in with a bitter face, the two brothers looked at each other and knew what was going on.

Lu Linzhi first smiled and joked, "Why, did you ask the Crown Prince's Consort to scold you?"

Cheng Kui pouted and responded with a sense of grievance, and then told the Crown Prince's wife about her warning.

"That's her nature."

Lu Linzhi sighed silently: "No matter how wronged I am, I always take the overall situation into consideration and always think about how to make the palace safe and smooth."

"It's a pity that the third brother can't understand her painstaking efforts."

Lu Linfeng complained in his heart, but a faint smile suddenly appeared on his handsome face: "It's not without reason that the prince and princess like to cherish my sister-in-law so much."

These days, he has also heard a lot about the Northern Mansion. She did not cry or make a fuss when she suffered such a great injustice on her wedding night, and she just endured it when she was troubled by that bitch Yunling. It seems that she has suffered a great injustice, but she has actually secured her position as the Crown Prince's Consort.

There are probably not many such intelligent women in the entire Dakang Dynasty.

"It is a blessing for the Lu family to have such a woman in charge of our Liyang Palace."

Lu Linfeng smiled and said, "With her, three generations of my Lu family will be safe."

"That's right. I am willing to stand with my brother on this point."

Lu Linzhi agreed with a smile, thinking: Her ability is not limited to protecting the three generations of the small Lu family.

Although Lu Linfeng said it so nonchalantly, he still felt sorry for that person in his heart.

Such a gentle and virtuous woman should be treated well, not to mention that she has devoted herself to the Lu family and the royal palace without any selfish motives.

It would have been fine if he was not in Yundu City in the past, but now that she has come to Liyang, she is the future sky of Liyang Palace and the master he should obey all his life.

While he was still thinking, Lu Linzhi suddenly asked: "Brother, do you know who saved the girl from the Chu family today?"

Lu Linfeng sighed helplessly: "The only one who can make Bai Yi fail is probably that stinky girl Lin Xue. I miscalculated."

Lu Linxue is the second of the four sons of Liyang and the younger sister of Lu Linfeng. Because of her excellent boxing skills and outstanding achievements, she was canonized as Princess Hexi in her early years. She is the only female general in the entire Dakang Korea.

"It's not shameful for the white clothes to be broken on my second sister."

Lu Linzhi smiled faintly and said, "And I heard that the woman was also seriously injured. I'm afraid she won't be able to get out of bed for ten days or half a month."

After hearing this, Lu Linfeng reluctantly felt relieved: "Old Four, I heard that when the prince was in Yundu, he intended to make Yunling, the lowly maid, his second concubine. Yunling is just a lowly girl who has fallen into the mortal world. This Chu girl at least has some family background. We can't let the prince do whatever he wants."

After a pause, he continued, "The court is already very suspicious of the Liyang Palace. The third brother has not yet inherited the title and has not followed the ancestral system. If he is really allowed to establish the second concubine for the crown prince, I am afraid it will attract a lot of criticism."

In response, Lu Linzhi did not say much, but just nodded: "I have always supported my elder brother."

"You are really a fox." Lu Linfeng smiled helplessly.

Anyway, he has expressed his stance, and things will go much more smoothly afterwards.
