Outside the Jiedu Mansion, Sun Shaoqing was running around for Chu Xiong.

In her opinion, there are only two people who can influence Lu Yuan's decision, one is Qin Youyu, the other is Zhang Dezhong, and she is naturally looking for Qin Youyu.

In the military camp north of the city, Qin Youyu shook his head when he heard Sun Shaoqing's words and said, "Sister Sun, your words do not prove Chu Xiong's innocence, and it is possible that he lied to you by what he said." ”

Sun Shaoqing hurriedly said: "Sister, I know Chu Xiong, he will not betray us, have you forgotten that the name Chu Xiong was still given to him by you back then!" ”

Qin Youyu was silent, she did have a good impression of Chu Xiong, but judging from what she knew so far, Chu Xiong was suspicious, and she didn't want to speak for Chu Xiong.

But seeing Sun Shaoqing's expression at the moment, it was difficult to refuse the other party, she and Sun Shaoqing were going to live together in the future, and she knew that Sun Shaoqing was not broad-minded, except for being more docile to Lu Yuan, when treating others, his temperament was extremely strong.

Although she has more respect for herself at present, it is also because when Lu Yuan fell to Jinling, the two supported each other and established a relationship of trust, and she did not want this trust to be destroyed.

Forget it, it's a big deal that I will spend more energy staring at Chu Xiong in the future. Thinking of this, she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll accompany you to find Lu Lang." ”

"Thank you, sister." Sun Shaoqing said happily.

The two rode to Jiedu Mansion together, and when they arrived at the second study, they didn't see Lu Yuan.

"Where did Master Hou go?" Qin Youyu asked a personal guard.

The guard bowed down and said, "After receiving a letter from the Second Army just now, the Hou Ye went back to the back house alone. ”

Second Army? Could it be Qin Quan's letter? Qin Youyu secretly thought to herself, yes, it must be a letter written by her younger brother, she knew that her younger brother was a cold-faced and warm-hearted person, Chu Xiong was his subordinate before, and he should have written a letter to intercede for Chu Xiong.

"Sister, let's go to the back house." Sun Shaoqing urged.

Qin Youyu nodded and walked towards the back house with her, but at the hanging flower gate leading from the outer house to the inner house, the two were stopped by Bai Yan, the captain of the guard.

"Master Hou has an order, don't see anyone." Bai Yan said.

"Can't even us?" Sun Shaoqing was shocked and angry.

Bai Yan opened his mouth, as if he was about to say something, but finally closed it and nodded.

Sun Shaoqing was stunned, this was the first time, Lu Yuan didn't even see himself and his sister, could it be that Chu Xiong's matter really had such a big impact on him?

Should it really affect the marriage as her father said, thinking of this, her face turned pale.

Qin Youyu was also a little uncomfortable in her heart, but seeing Sun Shaoqing's appearance, she still comforted softly: "Don't think about it, Lu Lang may have some considerations." ”

Sun Shaoqing shook his head and didn't speak, Qin Youyu sighed and pulled her out of the back house.

In the prison of Jiedu Mansion, Chu Xiong sat on the straw with his eyes closed, and suddenly, he heard movement outside, walked to the cell door to take a look, and saw several jailers escorting a prisoner with a cold face coming over and holding him in the cell opposite him.

Chu Xiong shook his head and sat back on the ground.

Not long after, there were footsteps outside, Chu Xiong got up and looked, only to see two jailers escorting Wang Bing over.

After seeing his face, Chu Xiong was furious: "Bastard, why are you hurting me!" Why hurt me! ”

Wang Bing's eyes were a little evasive, and he said in a low voice: "If I can, I don't want to shake you out, but there is no way, they tortured you too hard, don't blame me!" ”

"You" Chu vomited blood angrily.

He stretched out his hand to grab Wang Bing outside and yelled: "I'm going to kill you, Lao Tzu is going to kill you." ”

Wang Bing hurriedly dodged, and one jailer pulled out a stick, intending to whip Chu Xiong a few times, but another jailer grabbed him and said in a low voice: "This is Captain Chu, who has made meritorious contributions to our Hui'an Mansion." ”

The previous jailer snorted coldly, "So what, I'm not a traitor yet. ”

As he said this, he also put away his stick and detained Wang Bing in the cell next to Chu Xiong.

Chu Xiong looked at Wang Bing with red eyes, looking like he was going to eat him raw, Wang Bing swallowed his saliva, took a few steps back, and stayed away from Chu Xiong.

"What do you want, do you have to kill me to be willing?" Chu Xiong roared.

Wang Bing smiled miserably, he knew that he was doomed to death, and he also had some decisions in his heart, but even if he changed his words now, he didn't think that Lu Yuan would let him go, it was better to pull Chuxiong as a backstop, and the two made a covenant to live and die together, which happened to fulfill the oath.

Chu Xiong held the iron railing hard and shouted, "You speak, speak!" Speak! As he spoke, he slammed his head against the iron railing, and immediately the blood flowed like a pillar.

Wang Bing saw his crazy appearance, turned his head, and did not dare to look at his eyes again.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps, Chu Xiong was expecting that it was Lu Houye who sent someone to see him, and stepped to the side of the cell door to take a look, but it was a bald man who walked over.

"Gangquan, why are you here?" He exclaimed.

Gangquan saw his head bleeding, frowned, and said, "They tortured you?" ”

"No, I hit it myself." Chu Xiong shook his head and said, "Aren't you guarding the city in Jixi?" How is it here? ”

"I heard about you, so I sneaked back." Gang Quan replied in a deep voice.

"You have a lot of responsibility, how can you leave your post without permission?" Chu Xiong said urgently.

"I told Captain Fu Lei before I left, and the north is very stable now, there is no war, and it will be fine."

After a pause, he just looked at Chu Xiong's eyes and said, "I came to ask you in person, did you really betray Hui'an Mansion!" ”

"Nope!" Chu Xiong roared and pointed at Wang Bing as he spoke: "He framed me." ”

A relieved smile appeared on Gangquan's face: "I believe in you, don't worry, I will find a way to save you." ”

As he spoke, he walked to the door of Wang Bing's cell and said to the jailer beside him, "Open the door." ”

The jailer hesitated, for fear that he would just beat the prisoner to death.

"Gangquan, don't do it!" Chu Xiong hurriedly spoke, he had also wanted to kill Wang Bing before, but Gangquan's arrival made him calm down a little.

His only hope now is to persuade Wang Bing to change his words, if he just beats him up, he is afraid that he will never let go again.

Gangquan glared at Wang Bing fiercely, and said to Chu Xiong: "I'll go to General Qin now, you wait for me." He strode out of the cell.

Looking at his back, Chu Xiong sighed, he really didn't expect that Gang Quanhui would be the first to come to see him except for Miss, sitting back on the straw, he lowered his head and thought about how to persuade Wang Bing to change his words.

It didn't take long for footsteps to come from outside again, and Chu Xiong got up to take a look, only to see a woman walking towards this side with two wine jars.

"Xiaomei, why are you here?" Chu Xiong was shocked.

This woman's name is Mei Zhi, she is a widow, she opened a tavern, Chu Xiong often went to her to buy wine, and slowly got acquainted with her, and gradually, the two of them produced something indescribable.

Mei Zhi walked up to him with her head down, silently poured him a bowl of wine, and whispered, "I heard that something happened to you, so I came to take a look, but fortunately they were willing to let me come in to see you." ”

Speaking of this, she glanced up at Chu Xiong, and when she looked at it, she found that his head was bleeding, and her face suddenly turned pale, and she hurriedly took out a handkerchief and said, "Why are you bleeding?" Bow your head and I'll wipe it for you. ”

Chu Xiong lowered his head very honestly and said, "Meizhi, I didn't betray Hui'an Mansion. ”

"Then it goes without saying that you and General Qin are big heroes, and there must be villains who harm you." Umeeda smiled.

When Wang Bing on the side heard this, his whole body seemed to be stung, staring at the two of them viciously, the malice in his heart became deeper and deeper, and he secretly decided that he must pull Chuxiong on his back.

At this time, Chu Xiong and Mei Zhi whispered a few words, but it was Mei Zhi who asked what happened, and Chu Xiong naturally didn't hide it from her, and told Wang Bing about framing him.

Mei Zhi glanced at Wang Bing, slowly walked outside his cell, knelt on his knees, and said, "Lord Wang, please let Brother Chu go, please." ”

Chu Xiong was in a hurry: "Xiaomei, don't be like this, get up quickly!" ”

Wang Bing said viciously: "Miss Mei, you have been deceived by Chu Xiong, he is actually a despicable villain who betrays the lord for glory, he has betrayed the Chu State before, and now betraying the Hui'an Mansion is not a big deal for him." ”

As if Mei Zhi hadn't heard him, he still kowtowed, Wang Bing became more and more jealous of Chu Xiong, turned around, and turned his back to Mei Zhi.

Chu Xiong said loudly: "Xiaomei, go back quickly, do you hear?" ”

Mei Zhi is a woman who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and when she saw Wang Bing turn around, it seemed that she would not let Chu Xiong go no matter what. She picked up another jar of unopened wine, slammed it on the door of Wang Bing's prison, and said to Chu Xiong, "I will save you out", and then turned to leave.

Her actions not only shocked Chu Xiong and Wang Bing, but even the prisoner in the cell opposite the two of them was also startled.

After she walked away, Wang Bing said in a cold tone: "Brother Huang, you are really blessed, not only have brothers come to see you, but also women bring you wine, it seems that you have a very comfortable life in Hui'an Mansion." ”

Seeing that Chu Xiong didn't reply, Wang Bing gritted his teeth and said, "Do you know what it's like for me to be a general in the Tang Army?" ”

"I don't know."

Wang Bing stood up, walked around anxiously, and said loudly: "I said that I was a general, but in fact I was a dog, not to mention brothers and women, there was not even a single person in the army who talked to me with a straight eye, they all looked down on me, do you know my pain?" ”

Later, the face became more and more hideous.
