The father and mother went to visit the fifth brother and asked him about the reason for the fifth brother's injury. He was about to answer, but when he saw that their mother had hurried to help him get over, he had to remain silent.

As soon as he thought of this, Lu Jue felt tangled in his heart.

He doesn't love Bai Qingyun, which is now this Shentu Qingyun. I don't believe that his fifth brother, who is so weak in physique, will do anything to Bai Qingyun.

"Between her and the fifth brother, it is impossible for anything unspeakable to happen." Lu Ying told Qin Zhaoyi very firmly.

"You ......" Qin Zhaoyi was anxious and angry. In front of her own son, she must not be able to say, let her son find out whether Shentu Qingyun has been married to the fifth prince.

I could only try my best to calm myself down and tell Lu Yudao: "Ling'er, now, your father and emperor not only imprisoned that wicked man, but also made people look at the wicked man of the emperor's eldest son very closely. In these days, if you can cause less trouble, you can cause less trouble. The concubine is no longer young, and she no longer has the same grace as your father and the emperor did. You guys...... It's up to you. ”

As soon as Qin Zhaoyi mentioned this, tears couldn't help but flow down.

No matter how beautiful the flowers are, there will be a time to wither, and no matter how beautiful a woman is, she will not escape the day when she will grow old. Now, she is nearly forty years old, how can she compete for the emperor's love with the emperor's young concubines as before?

Lu Ying held back the unhappiness in his heart, pretended to be fine, and persuaded his mother to persuade her not to take some things to heart and to relax.

He said that he would definitely listen to his mother.

Didn't you just want him to marry Shentu Qingyun as a concubine?

He is married.

"The son will definitely follow the wishes of his mother and marry Shentu Qingyun as a concubine." Lu Ying promised.

When Qin Zhaoyi heard this, she looked at Lu Ying with pity and comforted her softly: "Don't worry, Ling'er, as soon as you are made the crown prince, the mother concubine will find an opportunity to let Shentu Qingyun, that cheap woman, taste the bitterness." When you inherit the throne, at that time, whether you want to make her the queen or not, or even whether you want her to stay in the palace and get your favor, it is up to you to decide! ”

Nan County.

Bai Jiaojiao sat opposite Yin Xueluo, and thought about what Liu Shiheng had said to her, related to Shentu Ying and Shentu Qingyun, in her mind. After thinking about it, she still thought in her heart that she had to get the small wooden box as soon as possible.

The little wooden box contained evidence that her uncle had bought poison powder.

If she hadn't gotten the small wooden box earlier, she was afraid that Yin Xueluo would take the small wooden box away and give it away, causing some unnecessary trouble.

The purpose of her coming to Nansheng Land was to help Lu Yan, the tenth prince. Getting evidence that her uncle was buying poison powder in private is also indirectly helping Lu Yan.

She had to let the emperor know what kind of people he trusted, Lord Taiwei and others, in private.

Liu Shiheng once told her that the night before she arrived at the mansion, they asked them to move the items in the warehouse and leave them alone.

They did this because the people around Taiwei knew that Shen Tuying would come to Nanjun and rush to that mansion to look for some items.

Empty the items in the warehouse, and when Shen Tuying rushes over, she will find that she has found nothing.

It's just that Liu Shiheng didn't expect that the person who took the group to their mansion was not Shen Tuying herself, but Shen Tuying's adopted daughter, Shen Tu

Qingyun.

Liu Shiheng said mockingly: "Shen Tuying, I want to be the mother-in-law of the future crown prince." After recognizing Shentu Qingyun as his daughter, he went to the palace to see Qin Zhaoyi and asked Qin Zhaoyi to persuade His Royal Highness the second prince to marry Shentu Qingyun as a concubine. ”

Bai Jiaojiao said disdainfully: "They think that the princess of His Royal Highness the Second Prince is so easy to be?" ”

How ruthless the second prince Lu Jue is, she has not seen it. With her understanding of Shentu Qingyun, she can imagine that after Shentu Qingyun marries Lu Yu, she will pass

What a bitter saying.

That kind of day is completely different from the beautiful days when Bai Qingyun often dreamed that after entering the palace, Bai Qingyun could still be favored by Lu Yu, and soon changed from Bai Zhaoyi to the queen's mother.

Bai Jiaojiao only heard Liu Shiheng say: "Just as Shentu Ying was thinking about marrying Shentu Qingyun into the palace and being the princess of His Royal Highness the Second Prince, the county lord Lingyan left Sheng County with a group of people and went to the outskirts of the imperial city. ”

"I know that." Bai Jiaojiao said truthfully.

Liu Shiheng shook his head helplessly, "Miss, you may just know that the county lord Lingyan went to the outskirts of the imperial city, but you may not know how many difficulties she has encountered since she got there." ”

Although Bai Jiaojiao had never seen the county lord of Lingyan, she also knew that the county lord of Lingyan was the biological mother of Su Xi's sister. Even if Mrs. Murong didn't tell her directly,

said that the daughter of the lord of Lingyan is the adopted daughter of the prime minister, Su Xi.

But she could guess that Su Xi was the biological daughter of the county lord of Lingyan.

In these years, the county lord of Zhigan Lingyan did not go to the imperial city to see the prime minister, so she didn't know the reason why she saw Su Xi and brought Su Xi back to her.

When she was in Sheng Jun, she didn't deliberately ask anyone about what happened to Su Xi

At that time, when she heard Liu Shiheng mention the matter of the Lingyan County Lord, she said softly: "Can you tell me about it?" I guess that the county lord of Lingyan has rushed to the outskirts of the imperial city, and he will definitely think of entering the city. ”

Not to mention anything else, when Shen Tuying and the others raised grain and grass in the Nansheng area, how did they buy it at a low price, and then report it to Taiwei at a high price. She would definitely tell some of the generals of the forbidden army about these things.

Liu Shiheng told Bai Jiaojiao truthfully: "...... Those things, Lord Taiwei himself knew, they did too much. That's why Lord Taiwei let the surnamed Xu escort his daughter to Shengjun in order to get rid of some people. ”

"The old man surnamed Xiang, that is, Xiang Shenglang of Shengjun, his daughter Xiang, didn't she get along with my uncle for a while after marrying Guo Xiaochi, the previous grain and grass escort officer?"

"He went from Sheng County to the Imperial City, and from the Imperial City to Nan County, he has traveled too many places along the way, I'm afraid that in these days, he has also helped Lord Taiwei's cronies to do something to harm others, right? In other words, Xiang Shenglang is the one who was bought by Huo Lao's cronies. ”

After Liu Shiheng heard this, he looked at Bai Jiaojiao, nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"He himself is a wicked person, what qualifications does he have to say that he wants to shake out all the things that our Bai family has done in the land of Nansheng?" Bai Jiaojiao snorted coldly and said, "The person who did the evil thing is my uncle, not my father. Xiang Shenglang said to Shentu Qingyun, who is no longer a member of the Bai family, that he would kill everyone in our Bai clan and bury his daughter. It's ridiculous, shameless! ”

Nan County, Nan City.

Bai Jiaojiao and Yin Xueluo sat opposite each other, because it was the first time they had seen each other, and when they talked, they would speculate about each other's thoughts.

Liu Shiheng said to Bai Jiaojiao before that after Yin Xueluo returned from the imperial city, he lived in seclusion in Nan County.

During that time, Yin Xueluo also accepted a few disciples and asked them to help her get rid of Shen Tuying. It's just that Yin Xueluo's disciples are not strong enough, and after going to the imperial city, they didn't hurt Shen Tuying in the slightest.

The only person who can get close to Shen Tuying and have the opportunity to help Yin Xueluo avenge him, but because he loves the original Bai Qingyun, that is, Shen Tuying's daughter who has now become Shen Tuying's daughter, he is reluctant to hurt Shen Tuying.

Because of this incident, Yin Xueluo has always held a grudge against that person. Even when I think of that person, I can't wait to rush to the imperial city immediately to teach that person a lesson. But for some special reasons, Yin Xueluo didn't do that.

Bai Jiaojiao knew that the person Liu Shiheng was talking about was one of Shi Ye's disciples, Chu Qingyuan.

Just as Bai Jiaojiao was pondering, she heard a slight knock on the table.

She raised her eyes and saw Yin Xueluo gently tapping the table top of the coffee table with the tip of her right index finger, looking at her with a bit of inquiry in her eyes.

Looking at Yin Xueluo like this, it seemed that she had something to ask her, but she didn't know where to ask.

Bai Jiaojiao faced Yin Xueluo's gaze at her, her eyes bent slightly, and said, "You ......"

Before Bai Jiaojiao finished speaking, Yin Xueluo sighed: "When I was about the same age as you, I was like you, with a charming face, superb martial arts, and my voice is very good, he likes to listen to it very much......

"I haven't met him, but I can imagine how nice he is to you. You are also beautiful, confident, elegant, and equally charming today. ”

Bai Jiaojiao saw that after Yin Xue took off the veil, she showed her her true face, knowing that the other party wanted to talk to her, and praised the other party from the bottom of her heart.

Yin Xueluo, who was sitting opposite her, really couldn't tell that she was a woman in her thirties, and it didn't look like she was more than twenty years old.

Yin Xueluo has fair skin, delicate face, and a pair of narrow beautiful eyes that shine with a bit of melancholy and resentment. This kind of person who writes her heart on her face is willing to take off the veil and let her see her true appearance.

She was very grateful to Yin Xueluo in her heart.

Yin Xueluo heard Bai Jiaojiao's praise, and there was a faint glimmer of joy in her melancholy eyes, and said, "I heard others say that you are the woman whom His Royal Highness the Second Prince admires." It's just that the person you like is His Royal Highness the Ten Princes. ”

Bai Jiaojiao blushed slightly, His Royal Highness the Ten Princes was just a confidant and friend of hers. As for His Royal Highness the Second Prince, she really didn't want to explain anything more.

Yin Xueluo pursed her lips and snickered, "Don't be embarrassed, I won't tell you about it." You came to see me to ask me for a small wooden box, so that I could destroy those evidences and get more benefits for the people of your Bai clan. But I have to remind you that many people know about the evil things that your uncle did in the Nansheng area. ”

The implication, White Girl, you just want to help your uncle destroy those evidence, and it won't help.

Bai Jiaojiao shook her head slightly, "I didn't think about it that way." Most of the people of our Bai clan are people who act in a downright way. Please don't have an opinion on the rest of our Bai clan because of my uncle's affairs alone. ”

Yin Xueluo waved her hand, looked at Bai Jiaojiao embarrassedly, and said, "Bai girl, let's not talk about it first, your grandfather and your father are both generals who have made great achievements, and they are different from your uncle. Just talk about yourself, you donated all the silver taels that Shen Tuying's relatives paid you, and worked hard to earn money to live. ”

"For that alone, I wouldn't imagine you as a bad person."

Hearing this, Bai Jiaojiao didn't understand much and asked, "Then you still say?" ”

"You are a woman's family, after getting the evidence, can you walk out of our prosperous land alive?" Yin Xueluo stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction where Sheng Cheng was and said, "I've heard about it, you have already been to Sheng Cheng." Presumably you also know that in order to save her cousin's son, His Royal Highness the Tenth Prince, Lord Lingyan has led a group of people to the imperial city. ”

Bai Jiaojiao nodded, indicating that she knew about it.

"People like us who stay here, in addition to dealing with the wicked people around Huo Lao's thief, we also have to guard against you, for fear that if you take away the evidence, it will be unfavorable to us." Yin Xueluo clasped her hands into fists, saluted Bai Jiaojiao and said, "Please forgive Miss Bai, I can't hand over the small wooden box to you." ”
