The name of the person from the Chen family is Chen Ye, who is the second son of Chen Pinyun and the only son of Chen Wei, the former commander of Zhaowu Command.
Chen Wei was killed in war in his early years, and the young Chen Ye was raised under Chen Pinyun's knees.
It is said that Chen Pinyun trusted Chen Ye very much, and under his hard teaching, he expected him far more than others.
Liao Chuxiu didn't let Chen Ye enter the gate of the Hyogo Division, but went directly outside with him, and after sitting in the teahouse room, Chen Ye had been secretly looking at Feng Qiao beside Liao Chuxiu, although the gaze was not obvious, it was difficult to ignore.
Feng Qiao was still wearing men's clothes, and although her long hair was tied up like a man, whether it was her size or appearance, she could tell her identity as a woman at a glance.
Her appearance is outstanding, her skin is fair, and her eyes are clear, even under simple men's clothing, it is difficult to hide her charming color.
Chen Ye vaguely guessed her identity, but he didn't break it.
Seeing this, Liao Chuxiu didn't mean to explain, so he directly asked, "What is the matter with Gongzi Chen coming to look for me today?"
Hearing this, Chen Ye retracted his gaze, got up directly and made a big salute to Liao Chu, and bowed to the end with both hands in fists: "Chen Ye came here to ask Master Hou to help my Chen family." ”
Liao Chuxiu didn't dodge Chen Ye's gift, but just looked at him for a while and said: "Ben Hou doesn't understand what Chen Gongzi means. If you talk about the home of Zhong Ming Ding Shi and Zhu Lunhua in Beijing, it is none other than your mansion, on which there is General Chen Lao who can be regarded as the cornerstone of the pillar country, and the court and China are all admired, and there are young heroes such as you to complement each other, and the future is becoming more and more brilliant, I am just an idler, how can I have so much ability to help you do anything?"
Chen Ye straightened up and looked at Liao Chuxiu, and said slowly: "Why should the Hou Ye be humble, you have already attacked the lord when you are young, not only have you won the trust of Your Majesty, but also hold the power in the court and are as powerful as a cloud, if the Hou Ye is still an idler, wouldn't we be ordinary people with mud under our feet, and we are not worth mentioning?"
Liao Chuxiu didn't speak when he heard this, but just raised his lips.
Chen Ye saw that he didn't answer him, and the woman dressed as a man next to him also looked indifferent, as if she didn't pay attention to him at all, he could only continue:
"I know that Hou Ye is a righteous person, and the situation in the court in recent days Hou Ye must also be clear, the eldest prince was framed by His Majesty and grounded in the mansion, my grandfather was worried day and night, afraid that he would be harmed. ”
"The eldest prince is the eldest son of His Majesty's knees, and he should inherit the unification, but he has been repeatedly harmed by villains and suffered injustice, Chen Ye dared to come to see Lord Hou today, just to ask Lord Hou to help the eldest prince get out of trouble, as long as Lord Hou is willing to take action, whether it is the eldest prince or our Chen family, we will definitely remember Lord Hou's kindness. ”
Feng Qiao sat on the side and looked at Chen Ye, although she guessed that he came here today, nine times out of ten, to seek help for the Chen family and the eldest prince, but she didn't expect that Chen Ye would say what he asked for so directly.
She suddenly couldn't help laughing, looked at him slightly sideways and said, "Isn't it funny that Chen Gongzi said in front of me that my father is a villain, and he still wants my husband to help you?"
"Whether the eldest prince has suffered is not in vain, or the crime is deserved, naturally there are people from Dali Temple and the Criminal Department who have concluded after the trial, no matter how bad it is, there is Your Majesty and the royal family, and now Your Majesty is just grounding him for a few days, and the Chen family is running around for him like this, those who know will say that your Chen family is affectionate and righteous, and those who don't know think that the eldest prince really did something that should not be done, so they are afraid of being known. ”
Chen Ye looked up at Feng Qiao fiercely, and saw the outstanding-looking woman with her chin held high, revealing an arrogant look.
"Besides, Your Majesty is still alive now, you just said so clearly that the eldest prince should inherit the throne, if others hear it, I'm afraid they still think that the eldest prince has already conspired against him and covets the throne under His Majesty. ”
"Joel!"
Liao Chuxiu frowned at her, thinking that he was scolding her for inappropriate words.
But Feng Qiao was not afraid at all, and glared at him with a very arrogant expression.
"What's the matter, am I wrong, isn't that what he said just now, he hasn't even climbed up to the throne, so he promises you heavy profits, and he is not afraid of the wind flashing his tongue?"
She tilted her chin and spoke without any leeway, as if she had been spoiled for arrogance.
"Besides, my father, as the head of the Imperial Procuratorate, has the responsibility of supervising the courtiers and purging the officials for His Majesty, although I don't know the details of this incident, but I also know that his matter this time has nothing to do with the Chen family. ”
"What he played was the responsibility of the Liu family, it was too much, even if the eldest prince was implicated, it was not too deep, what does this matter have to do with their Chen family? My father didn't target them, but they just came forward to slander my father like this, and they also dragged you to make enemies of my father. ”
Feng Qiao said this, got up directly and widened his eyes and said, "What's the matter, do you really want to help them outsiders to deal with my father?!"
Liao Chuxiu looked at Feng Qiao and said that he would change his face, and looked at him angrily with a small face, with a pungent and arrogant appearance, his eyes couldn't help but smile, but his face was full of helplessness and reached out to hold her hand.
"You misunderstood, how could I help them deal with their father-in-law..."
"Why don't you?!"
Feng Qiao knocked off his hand with a "snap", glared at him and said, "You were at odds with your father earlier, you fought against him everywhere, tried your best to harm him, and now you are in contact with them. She turned her head and pointed at Chen Ye as she spoke, and said loudly: "He is so familiar with you, he will ask you to help him as soon as he comes, and he said that after the matter is completed, there will be a good reward, and you must have been in contact with each other a long time ago." ”
"You say, if I don't come today, are you going to agree to him and help them deal with my father?"
The woman was wearing men's clothes, and her eyes were red with anger when she crossed her waist, and those words were obviously arrogant, but Liao Chuxiu, who had always been indifferent in the court, was helpless and spoiled, and her expression softened and half-hugged her who was struggling by her side.
"You let go of me. Feng Qiao struggled.
"Jo'er, don't make trouble..."
"I'll make trouble, anyway, you're going to help someone else hurt my father. ”
Feng Qiao had tears in his eyes when he spoke, and he was extremely aggrieved: "Liao Chuxiu, you have no conscience, you said that you would treat me well, I know you don't like your father, but you said that you won't harm him..."
Liao Chuxiu pulled her with a distressed face, and while hurriedly protecting her from hurting herself, he coaxed in a low voice: "Who said that, how could I harm my father-in-law, he is your father." ”
Feng Qiao said aggrievedly: "But you yelled at me just now......"
Liao Chuxiu was extremely helpless, and he didn't care if there were outsiders present, so he pulled her and begged for mercy: "It's me who is wrong, I shouldn't be so loud and scare you." ”
Feng Qiao's eyes turned even redder when he heard his words, and he couldn't help but lie directly in his arms and tremble lightly on his shoulders.
And Chen Ye had already been stunned by the sudden scene.
