Chapter 258 Aphrodisiac Powder
Even the maid could see Xiao Ying's good intentions, so it was ironic that Xiao Ying thought she was imprisoning her in the palace on purpose.

In vain she still had some expectations for Xiao Ying, thinking she was smart.After encountering a catastrophe this time, he must be able to wake up, and now it seems that it is nothing more than that.

Zhao Yan will be a person who will do great things in the future, so naturally the women around him should be able to help him.

Back then, in order to gain fame, Xiao Ying flattered herself and secretly used her name to make arrangements everywhere. She saw everything and did not stop her.

I thought this woman could rely on her child to keep Zhao Yan, but she was so stupid that she was jealous with Xiao Ruan all day long, and she didn't even care about the child in her stomach.

With a mother like this, how smart is her child?

Pursing her lips, the queen suddenly glanced at the maid again, and the corner of her mouth curled into a long arc.

"What's different about Dingguohou's Mansion?"

"Back to your mother, there is no news from Marquis Dingguo, but that Mr. Xiao has been in a state of panic during this period of time, and he dare not even step out of the gate!"

The maid's voice was full of sarcasm, and suddenly she felt a sharp gaze coming towards her, and her body froze, she hurriedly lowered her head and dared not speak again.

"If you let me hear such words again, I will punish myself!"

White smoke curled up from the peach-shaped censer, through the white smoke, the expression on the queen's face suddenly became unreal, but hearing the other party's voice instantly became cold, the maid hurriedly knelt on the ground and did not dare to speak.

It was night, in the vast night sky, dark clouds covered the curved crescent moon, and a bird's figure suddenly crossed in the dark sky.

Under the eaves of the empty corridor of Dingguo Marquis Mansion, Li Yun stood with a thin man, and the intimacy between the two could be vaguely seen in the dim light.

"When you go to the banquet tomorrow, you must not take it lightly. If something urgent happens, you can call out the hidden guards to ensure that Madam will not be harmed in the slightest."

The man's voice was sonorous and powerful, but there was deep concern in his tone.

"Brother, don't worry, this time I will definitely stay by Madam's side every step of the way, and the last mistake will never happen again."

Li Yun lowered his eyes, but his palms were tightly clenched.

She had taken it lightly before, and failed to see the opponent's flaws in time, let alone protect Xiao Ruan, causing her to be robbed and almost buried in flames.

For the sake of Li Yan's face, the general just gave her a light punishment, but Xiao Ruan interceded for her, taking all the responsibility on her own body.

She naturally engraved such kindness in her heart, she dared not forget even half of it, and secretly vowed in her heart that she would be more sincere to Xiao Ruan in the future.

This time Huo Yixuan hosted a banquet for Xiao Ruan, anyone with a discerning eye could see that there was a hidden danger in this banquet, and Xiao Ruan was very likely to be framed.

Li Yan called Li Yun out for a special reminder, which is enough to see how much he attaches importance to this matter.

"This banquet is held at the South Korean government's residence. Huo Yixuan will never send someone to kidnap Madam. But Madam is pregnant, you must be careful not to let anyone approach Madam, in case someone who wants to make trouble secretly."

"Thank you for reminding me, brother, I will definitely pay attention to it tomorrow!"

His sister was so obedient, Li Yan's eyes showed a touch of tenderness, and he patted the shoulder of the opposite woman as if encouraging, and then jumped away.

The cold wind was blowing, and the bells under the eaves were tinkling. The two ghostly shadows quickly disappeared into the night, as if nothing had happened here.

In the early morning of the next day, when Xiao Ruan got up, Huo Xun had already rushed to the morning court.

The room is warm, the breath of the other party still remains beside the pillow, and the person reminded her last night, Xiao Ruan glanced at the hourglass in the corner and immediately called Zhu Yun to dress herself.

As soon as Sishi arrived, the red sun in the sky came out from the clouds, emitting thousands of golden lights, which pierced people's eyes.

Xiao Ruan took Zhu Yun and Li Yun into the carriage in this golden light, and drove slowly towards the South Korean government.

Today's Han Gongfu is extremely lively, almost all the noble ladies in Beijing gather here, the carriages parked outside the gate completely block the road in front of the Han Gongfu, and there is almost no place to step down.

When Xiao Ruan entered the courtyard, all the daughters from various families were invited.

The crowd was brought to the backyard along the flower path, and immediately saw Huo Yixuan and Qian's smiling and welcoming the noble ladies.

"Oh, come and take a look. I also said that my sister-in-law has been angry with me and won't come to see me today. It turns out that I am narrow-minded."

As soon as Huo Yixuan saw Xiao Ruan with sharp eyes, she surrounded her, and affectionately embraced Xiao Ruan's arm to introduce to everyone around her.

Xiao Ruan expected early in the morning that Huo Yixuan would never let her go easily, so she was secretly vigilant while dealing with her with a smirk.

Unexpectedly, Huo Yixuan did not embarrass her in front of everyone today. Everyone met and went about their activities, waiting for the banquet to officially start.

Xiao Ruan searched around, but did not see Lu Heng's figure, thinking that the other party did not come today, suddenly saw a red figure in the crowd in the distance, walking towards him, and a smile appeared on his lips unconsciously .

"Ruan Ruan, why are you here? This Huo Yixuan has evil intentions, I thought you wouldn't come here."

Lu Heng looked surprised, and glanced at Xiao Ruan's slightly protruding belly, a flash of disapproval flashed in his eyes.

"If I don't come today, I'm afraid I will have to be arranged."

Xiao Ruan glanced at Huo Yixuan who was not far away, and felt helpless in her voice.

Hearing this, Lu Heng showed sympathy.

In fact, she didn't have to come today, but she heard that Xiao Ruan would come today, and she followed because she was worried that she would be bullied.

Glancing at Huo Yixuan in the distance, Lu Heng couldn't help but taunt: "It's an ugly man who is making a fool of himself. Isn't it just to make her a princess, or to let her go to Beijiang to get married. This person really thinks of himself as a princess, and wants everyone to marry him." Everyone came to see her off. Let's find a place where there are few people to stay, so as not to join in her fun!"

After saying that, Lu Heng took Xiao Ruan's hand and walked towards the back garden, staying away from these troublesome people as much as possible.

With Lu Heng as company, Xiao Ruan was also happy and at ease, only looking forward to leaving immediately after the banquet was over.

The two talked and laughed in a low voice and walked in front, and a few little maids followed behind them, and Li Yun looked around vigilantly with a pair of eyes.

"Miss, wait a moment!"

The three of them had just walked to the bare lotus pond when Li Yun suddenly stopped Xiao Ruan.Turning around, Xiao Ruan saw Li Yun touch her arm, and showed surprise.

"What is this?"

Li Yun's hands were stained with some fine powder, which shone silver in the sunlight, and Zhu Yun and Xiao Ruan showed surprise expressions unconsciously.

He frowned and didn't speak. He put the powder on the tip of his nose and smelled it, and his face changed drastically: "Miss, we're afraid we've been tricked."

Facing everyone's puzzled eyes, Li Yun carefully checked Xiao Ruan's body, and then said with some uncertainty: "Miss, the smell of these powders is very similar to the smell of aphrodisiac incense. Miss."

Just now she discovered that something was stuck on Xiao Ruan's clothes in front of her. It was strange to see the flashing in the sunlight. After carefully observing Xiao Ruan's clothes, she was sure that it could not be the luster of the clothes. Out of caution, After thinking about it, he stopped the person.

But he didn't want to take a closer look, the flashing light turned out to be white powder sprinkled on Xiao Ruan's body.

Due to the thick texture of the fabric, the powder remained on it and did not fall off as Xiao Ruan moved.

"It must be Huo Yixuan who did something to the lady just now!"

After hearing Li Yun's analysis, Zhuyun immediately showed an angry expression: "Just now, Huo Yixuan was the only one who held Miss's arm, the others didn't get close to Miss, who else would think of harming Miss!"

"This vicious woman is about to leave, and she still wants to do evil things. I'll find her now!"

Lu Heng came after Xiao Ruan, so naturally he didn't know about Huo Yixuan's intimate behavior towards Xiao Ruan just now, but after hearing from Zhuyun that Huo Yixuan sprinkled those medicine powder on Xiao Ruan on purpose, he immediately rolled up his sleeves and wanted to confront Huo Yixuan.

"You stop quickly!"

Lu Heng was still as impulsive as before, Xiao Ruan quickly stopped him, and before the other party could speak, he suddenly whispered a few words in her ear.

"Okay! I listen to you!"

After hearing this, Lu Heng's eyes lit up, and he immediately took the medicine powder that Li Yun had just taken from Xiao Ruan's body and hurried away.

"Princess, the Persian cat in your hand is really beautiful. I haven't seen anything more beautiful than it!"

"This is a gift that Duke Huai specially found for me, how can you easily see it?"

Here Xiao Ruan was waiting for Lu Heng's return, but suddenly there was a compliment behind him.She turned around and looked, only to notice that at the opposite intersection, a group of noble ladies were walking towards the proud Zhao Lingyi.

Different from the past, today's Zhao Lingyi is holding a snow-white Persian cat in his arms, and it is this white snowball that everyone compliments and praises.

That white snowball looked very docile, lying quietly in Zhao Lingyi's arms without moving.A pair of azure blue eyes that were crystal clear like glass beads looked lazily at the ladies beside her, their haughty appearance was exactly the same as Zhao Lingyi's.

"Hey, who do I think this is? It turns out to be Mrs. Ding Guohou! Your clothes are so wet, did you just fall into the pool?"

As soon as Zhao Lingyi saw Xiao Ruan, she immediately showed disdainful eyes, but when she saw that half of her sleeve was wearing water stains, she immediately taunted her.

Facing everyone's curious eyes, Xiao Ruan stepped forward to salute her calmly, without mentioning the reason why his sleeves were wet.

"Humph!"

Seeing her approaching with a cold snort, Zhao Lingyi's mouth suddenly curled into an arc, and he sent the Persian cat in his arms to Xiao Ruan, and said something meaningful.

"How does Madam look at this Persian cat in my arms?"

Xiao Ruan's eyes glanced at the Persian cat in her arms, her eyes flickered, and she immediately complimented: "Princess, this Persian cat has a noble blood and extraordinary background. This is the first time I have seen it in my life."
