The scumbag wiped out my entire family, I was reborn to marry the villain prince

Chapter 21 I killed him

Lu Qingyu hugged the Ninth Princess tighter, patting the little girl's back gently and caressing her tenderly.

"Sister is here, Junya, don't be afraid. Junya is no longer in the closet. She is safe now."

He Junxuan watched quietly from the side, but his heart was already surging with thoughts.

The Ninth Princess spoke without restraint, which meant that Concubine Su had indeed committed adultery, and the blood letter written by the assassin was real.

But who wrote the blood letter?

He Junxuan didn't believe that the assassin really wrote it himself. He had seen the assassin's body, and the angle of the knife that pierced his heart showed that he was definitely stabbed by an outsider.

Moreover, what was this assassin doing in Fengxiang Palace?
Assassinate the Queen Mother?
He Junxuan's eyes fell on Lu Qingyu's cold face. Her reaction to this matter seemed a little too calm.

"Ms. Lu, what do you think of the assassin we found this morning and the blood written on his body?"

Lu Qingyu looked calm. He pointed at himself and made a gesture of wiping his neck. Then he looked into He Junxuan's eyes and said three words silently.

"I killed him."

He Junxuan had raised eyebrows, and a teardrop mole at the end of his eye set off his dark and cold pupils, making him look evil.

"Miss Lu really impressed me."

It's getting more and more exciting.

Ever since the adultery was caught three days ago, each scene has become more and more confusing. It feels as if there is someone behind the scenes who can predict the future, and every time he stirs up the entire chess game into turmoil.

And Lu Qingyu is this variable.

Perhaps because Lu Qingyu's embrace was too comfortable, the Ninth Princess no longer trembled, but instead began to snore slightly.

The little girl fell asleep.

Lu Qingyu gently placed the Ninth Princess on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and then whispered to He Junxuan, "Your Highness, can you please talk to me for a moment?"

He Junxuan stared at Lu Qingyu's lonely back, and the words that the Ninth Princess had just said involuntarily emerged in his mind.

"Sister, you like Brother Eight."

Does her sister-in-law really like me?
While thinking about this, He Junxuan had already followed Lu Qingyu out of the yard.

Ye Huai was about to jump down from the tree when he saw his master and Lu Qingyu walking towards the inner courtyard without even glancing at him.

Ye Huai blinked, but finally decided to stay where he was.

It seems that the master and Princess Jing are making rapid progress!

After entering the inner courtyard, Lu Qingyu and He Junxuan sat face to face at a stone table.

On a hot summer day, a breeze blew towards you, and a few peach-pink and pear-white petals danced lightly in the wind, accompanying bursts of refreshing fragrance, and fell on the girl's waterfall-like black hair.

Lu Qingyu stretched out her soft jade fingers and slowly tidied up her slightly messy hair. When she raised her arm, the gauze sleeves slipped off, revealing a white and smooth wrist.

He Junxuan's indifferent eyes narrowed slightly and his eyebrows raised. Lu Qingyu's little thoughts were too obvious.

But He Junxuan could also feel that the little girl didn't seem to intend to hide her thoughts.

As the saying goes, open conspiracy.

After tidying up her hair, Lu Qingyu said leisurely, "Your Highness, Concubine Su sent someone to rape me, so I killed that person. As for that blood letter--"

She lowered her eyes slightly, "Supin's adulterer is Lin Zhi, the commander of the imperial guards. But Supin has committed suicide now, so I'm afraid there will be no evidence of this adultery."

He Junxuan narrowed his dark phoenix eyes, and a strange light flashed in his eyes, "Even such a secret thing as murder, Miss Lu will tell me? Moreover, Miss Lu seems to be very familiar with Su Bin's affairs."

The corners of Lu Qingyu's lips curled up, revealing two cute dimples. "Your Highness, in this cannibalistic capital, there are only a handful of people I can trust."

The girl propped up her chin, and looked at the man with eyes as bright as the bright moon, her expression extremely serious, "Your Highness, you are one of them."

He Junxuan stared at Lu Qingyu for a long time before asking quietly, "Why do you trust me so much?" Lu Qingyu was slightly stunned.

Because in the last life, it was you who rushed into the dungeon for me before you died. You told me not to die, and you said you were sorry you were late.

The answer instantly appeared in Lu Qingyu's mind.

Why does my head hurt?
Broken images flashed before her eyes so fast that she could hardly see clearly.

Lu Qingyu suddenly pressed her temples hard, and waves of sharp pain cut through her brain, and waves of stabbing pain also came from her heart.

Soul-eating insect, it’s the soul-eating insect that is moving!
The tremendous pain made Lu Qingyu groan for a moment, and then his body fell down uncontrollably.

He Junxuan subconsciously reached out to stop Lu Qingyu who was about to fall. Through the thin shirt, his palm touched the girl's soft and slender waist.

Waves of numbing sensations spread into the palms of his hands, and He Junxuan felt his eyelids twitching slightly. He suddenly had a feeling that was both strange and familiar.

Looking at the girl's pale and forbearing face, her rosy lips turned pale from being pursed, He Junxuan felt his heart tighten uncontrollably. It was a reaction that came completely from instinct.

He stood up and gently supported Lu Qingyu, "What's wrong with you?"

The girl's body convulsed and fell onto the man's broad chest. There was a faint fragrance on He Junxuan's body that made her feel at ease.

He Junxuan's body stiffened slightly, but he didn't dare to move. He could only stand there like a stone sculpture.

Lu Qingyu endured the double pain in her heart and head, and tremblingly took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms. This was the universal detoxification pills she always had on hand.

Although it cannot cure the soul-eating poison, it can alleviate the pain caused by the poison.

"Your Highness, please pour out one pill for me and feed it to me." Lu Qingyu said while taking a deep breath.

It hurt so much.

He Junxuan took the porcelain bottle, poured out a small dark green pill from it, and gently put it into Lu Qingyu's mouth.

The moment his fingers touched Lu Qingyu's lips, He Junxuan felt a strange feeling in his heart again.

Compared to his mind, his body seemed more familiar with the girl in front of him.

After about a cup of tea, Lu Qingyu's trembling body gradually calmed down.

She raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her temples, only then did she realize that she was still leaning on He Junxuan.

Lu Qingyu's cheeks flushed slightly, and she pulled away gently, coughing slightly.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Only when he felt the girl's warm body leaving him did He Junxuan come back to his senses from his slight trance, and he sat back down on the stone bench.

After this close physical contact, the atmosphere between the two became inexplicably subtle.

"I'll return the medicine to you." After a moment's silence, He Junxuan handed the small porcelain bottle back to Lu Qingyu.

Lu Qingyu didn't say anything, but just quietly put away the porcelain bottle.

The atmosphere fell into awkward silence again.

But the next moment, the two of them spoke at the same time in tacit understanding.

"There is a poison in my body."

"What happened to you just now?"

Lu Qingyu and He Junxuan's eyes met, and then they quickly looked away.

"Just now, the poison in my body broke out." Lu Qingyu said softly.
