The news that Liu Xunxuan was bedridden all day spread far and wide, and she didn't summon a doctor, and the palace was bored, so a little thing was spread more and more exaggerated, and finally it was said that the queen's mother was pregnant, and she didn't need a doctor for her medical skills. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The news of the dragon heir made a big fuss, and some ministers in the court asked about it.

"Your Majesty! The matter of the dragon heir is not trivial, but you must be cautious! A gray-haired old minister stood up and bowed again.

"Your Majesty! The ceremony has not yet been held, and the queen is now pregnant, so please hold the ceremony as soon as possible! The young waiter of the Ministry of Rites stood up and spoke earnestly.

"Your Majesty! You can't pet one person. Qin Lu stood up and said sharply.

Chu Yao sat on the dragon chair and looked at the ministers in a daze.

Whether Liu Xunxuan is pregnant or not, he himself is not completely sure. He had actually gotten the news that she was bedridden a long time ago, but he was more than a little smarter than Zihuai, and of course he knew that her leg injury would hurt in the cold winter. But there is no medicine to relieve this pain, so I can only boil it by myself, and it will be better after a winter or two. So he didn't care too much, and just ordered to prepare enough cold supplies to be sent to Mingyue Palace. But now so many people say that she is pregnant, which makes him a little unsure. But as soon as he thought that Qin Lu was in this court, if he didn't want the queen to give birth to the imperial heir first and poison him, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Chu Yao cleared his throat and said seriously: "Everyone, the queen is bedridden because of a cold attack due to a leg injury, not pregnant, please rest assured, don't follow the clouds." And this matter is a matter of the inner courtyard of my palace, I don't know why you are so clear, it can be seen that the atmosphere of the palace is declining, and when you see a wave, you think it is a tsunami, everyone is proud of passing on the privacy of others by word of mouth, and I think it is urgent to rectify it. ”

After hearing this, all the ministers resigned themselves to calling it "the emperor Shengming". Chu Yao's patience had been exhausted, and he waved his hand and retreated.

After going down to the court, Chu Yao still had some doubts in his heart, the night he came back from Qin Lu to Mingyue Palace that day, it seemed that the days were almost the same. I want to go and see her, thinking that her leg must be in unbearable pain on a cold night, and if she is really pregnant, she won't even notice it!

But Liu Xunxuan's words that day echoed in his mind again, "If I like you, I will be with you, and if I don't like you, I will leave you." This sentence made Chu Yao feel that she didn't love him enough at all, she only loved herself, and only loved her own freedom.

This sentence stung him deeply, so much so that Liu Xunxuan was happy that he might indeed be pregnant, but he couldn't let him take the initiative to stay in Mingyue Palace.

Liu Xunxuan didn't get angry much that day. After calming down, I felt that I was still too impulsive, and I said a lot of things to anger him, and I shouldn't have been. Coupled with the fact that she hadn't seen him for too many days, longing had taken the place of anger in her heart.

So she used her consciousness to probe the morning of the day. I saw Chu Yao facing backwards again, and the footsteps that were originally coming to her turned back.

The anger in her heart suddenly rose again. Directly ascended to the brain. It's a good Chu Yao, you still don't come to see me even though you know that my leg hurts, and you still can't bear it if you suspect that I'm pregnant? It looks like I'm tired of playing.

It's no wonder that modern books say that you can't get it so quickly, because men are hunting animals and need the sense of accomplishment that comes from catching, and once you make him feel that he has fully obtained you, he will no longer be interested in you.

The way those clever women do it is to make the man feel like he will never really get her. So Liu Xunxuan restarted her journey of anger.

Chu Yao didn't take Liu Xunxuan's matter to heart, he had just returned to the imperial study when he received a secret report from Chu Yao.

"Shao Ming is in Fenglan Cliff?" Chu Yaozai carefully read the fine words on the paper scroll, raised his head, and muttered thoughtfully.

The spacious and bright light and majestic layout of the imperial study reflect the extraordinary majesty of the emperor at this moment.

The nullah stood below with his hands down, and the atmosphere did not dare to come out.

"Nullah, the group of bandits caught in Xiaoyuelin last time, did you ask something?" Chu Yao smoothed out the paper roll and smeared the handwriting on it with ink.

"Those little minions don't know anything, Lu Jinfeng doesn't say anything, and there is another one named Wu An who hasn't been caught yet."

"Didn't catch it?"

"Yes, in the rush that day, the number of people was not counted. It was during the interrogation that I learned from those little minions that there was such a person. ”

"Oh, why didn't Lu Jinfeng say anything, did he use the torture?" Chu Yao's two sword eyebrows were raised high, and the pair of deep and resolute eyes under the sword eyebrows stared at the nullah.

Nullah instantly felt that his shoulders sank, "I've used the punishment, but I still don't say a word." He said respectfully with his head down.

"Let's go! Go to Xujie City! Go and prepare your horses, and bring nine of the eighteen stars, no, only four! Chu Yao said categorically.

The nullah got the order and hurried to make arrangements.

——

Lu Jinfeng sat in the prison under the ground of Xu Jiecheng, the dungeon was dark and damp, and the air was filled with bursts of smoky rancid stench mixed with the smell of blood.

His face was gloomy and ugly, black and purple like a frost-beaten eggplant leaf. His hands were hung from the wall in huge chains, and the muscles on those arms were intertwined like ivy wrapped around the branches of a tree. His legs were covered in bloody scabs, and some of the wounds had festered and were oozing milky white mucus.

He didn't understand it in his heart, and he didn't know when the ordinary bandits who had lived by robbing houses in Raoyu Mountain were hated by the imperial court.

Chu Yao and the nullah dismounted and walked through the garden in the backyard, a rusty iron gate in the depths of the garden, with several iron chains locked on it, exuding a strange feeling.

Qu Sixia was standing at the door waiting for them. He led them in, and didn't say much except after he saluted like Chu Yao at first.

The crooked moon slowly climbed up the branches, and the bright moonlight shone into the dark dungeon. The candlelight in the dungeon itself flickered like a ghost.

Chu Yao recognized Lu Jinfeng at a glance, he had never seen him, but although he was just the leader of a group of rabble, he still had some leader temperament in him.

Look, it was obviously nothing, like a trapped beast, and it was obviously humiliating to stand in front of the victor with shackles and leg cuffs, but those eyes were still so fierce and clear.

His face was cold, and his two eyes were staring straight at Chu Yao like an awl.

"You're the Emperor?" Lu Jinfeng even recognized him!

"Yes." Chu Yao's thin lips opened slightly, and he coldly spit out two words.

"I knew you were coming. If I didn't say anything, I knew you would come and pry my mouth open yourself. Lu Jinfeng looked stubborn and fierce.

Chu Yao was still cold and didn't say a word.

Lu Jinfeng laughed twice, "But I really don't understand, I don't have what you want." ”

"No, you have." The cold light in Chu Yao's eyes turned into two sharp swords and stabbed straight at him.

"Let me ask you, did you deliberately arrange it by Qu Menhan? Did he set up a game and deliberately asked you to rob your house and play a mountain bandit? Chu Yao then asked.

Lu Jinfeng laughed three times, "Who is Qu Menhan?" The head of the Rao Yu Sect? I've never seen one! ”

"Haven't you seen it? The eleventh in your team is Qu Menhan. ”

Lu Jinfeng's red eyes widened. He really didn't expect that handsome man with excellent archery skills would be the famous Raoyu Mountain Sect Master!

"I really don't know." Lu Jinfeng turned his face, "Now that I have seen the emperor, I just ask you to give me a good time." ”

Chu Yao had a cold face, looking like he didn't want to waste time. "Yes, but I want you to tell me in detail what you know about Raoyu Mountain, including the geographical location, topography, where there are poisonous weeds, where there are obstacles, where there are people's homes, etc., and it is best to write it down or draw it!"

Lu Jinfeng raised his head violently, he didn't expect that what the emperor wanted was this!

"If you don't say it, I can only think that you are colluding with Qu Menhan, then I will punish your nine clans." Chu Yao's words as sharp as a whip spit out elegantly from his beautiful lips.

Lu Jinfeng thought for a long time, "If I say it, can I let my brothers live?" They were all very young and didn't know anything. ”

"Yes." Chu Yao looked down at him indifferently and replied lightly.

Lu Jinfeng glanced up at him, nodded heavily, and said helplessly, "Okay." ”
