On the night when Li entered the palace at the beginning of summer, Qian Baihan's house was calm.

He sat under the lamp and read the book, Chu Lie and Mu Xuan stood outside the door, this night Qian Baihan's house was brightly lit, not for anything else, just because after Xia Chuli left, Qian Baihan received information from the secret guard.

The Lord Protector is going to send someone to the palace to assassinate him on this night, although the news is not clear to the secret guards, but in any case, it cannot be ignored.

He hung lanterns everywhere, illuminating the originally deserted mansion very brightly, but it was a little more lively.

It wasn't until dawn that Qian Baihan ordered someone to extinguish the candle flame and removed half of the guards.

Commander Xia's injuries had healed a lot, and when he came to report the news, Qian Baihan looked at him and said, "You have to be careful these days, and you can't take it lightly no matter what." ”

Commander Xia responded, looked at Qian Baihan with some puzzlement and asked, "General, why don't we just pretend not to know about the situation, and then capture them in one fell swoop?" ”

Zhou Qingwu did not withdraw the people from Qian Baihan's mansion, so now Qian Baihan still has some available people, plus the henchmen he cultivated before, there are also a lot.

It shouldn't be a problem to catch some assassins sent by the Lord Protector.

But Qian Baihan deliberately fortified and made those people seamless, which made him a little puzzled.

Qian Baihan looked at Commander Xia and put down the scroll in his hand, and said lightly: "I have no military power and no official position now, even if I am caught, what if I am caught?" After handing it over to the government, don't you want to listen to the protector of the country? ”

Commander Xia said: "But Lord Zhang, they will argue for the general, and the general can ignore this at all." ”

Qian Baihan shook his head, "You can't get involved with them." ”

If he is involved with them, Zhou Qingwu will only know more clearly how many contacts he has made after he takes the position of general.

Now Zhou Qingwu knows only two or three people on the bright side, if he brings others out because of this, it will be a little more than worth the loss.

Seeing Qian Baihan's firm answer, Commander Xia had no choice but to say, "Yes, my subordinates understand." ”

Now Qian Baihan doesn't want to catch those people, he just wants to be able to live in peace in the days before regaining military power.

Qian Baihan looked at him and asked, "Is the injury better?" I told you to stay up all night with you, no big deal, right? ”

Commander Xia replied: "General Xie cares, and the injuries of his subordinates are nothing more. ”

Qian Baihan saw that his face was not abnormal except that he was a little pale this night, so he also relieved his heart and said to him: "Go down!" Tell Chu Lie and Mu Xuan to go down and rest, and change someone else to guard it! ”

"Yes, my subordinates obey." Commander Xia left in response, and Qian Baihan also had breakfast, changed his clothes and lay on the bed, ready to take a nap.

It's just that I don't know why, Qian Baihan, who was lying on the bed, couldn't fall asleep no matter what, he just felt that there was something in his heart.

He wanted to close his eyes and wait to fall asleep, but he didn't expect that as soon as he closed his eyes, Xia Chuli's appearance would appear.

He was a little surprised, and he didn't understand why.

Xia Chuli is gone, he has gone to the palace, Zhou Qingwu gave a lot of rank, people who don't know think that they have seen his love for the former general, but only he knows it, this is just because Zhou Qingwu likes Xia Chuli!

I don't know, how is Xia Chuli in the palace now.

Thinking of this, Qian Baihan's heart ached.

It's just that why it hurts, even he can't say clearly.

Perhaps, it was because I finally got used to having a relative, but in the end I left myself!

In Fenghua Guan, Lu Qingzi listened to the news handed over by the guards, and nodded slightly, "I actually sealed the position of the sixth grade, it seems that even if I have just entered the palace, Xia Chuli's life will not be too sad." ”

After calling the guards down, Lu Qingzi came to the door of Gu Ningyue's house, Gu Ningyue was sitting there reading a book, and her demure posture seemed to have lost her usual anger, like a lotus flower that was slowly blooming, so that people couldn't help but take a few more looks.

Lu Qingzi thought that if he was a man, he would be moved when he saw such a scene.

"What are you watching me do there?" Gu Ningyue turned a page of the book, and although she didn't look back, she also felt the sight behind her.

Lu Qingzi stepped into the room, sat opposite Gu Ningyue, and suddenly said without a beginning or a tail: "Xia Chuli has entered the palace and has been named a nobleman." ”

"Oh!" Gu Ningyue responded lightly and said to Lu Qingzi, "Isn't that good?" Fly on the branches and become a phoenix. ”

Lu Qingzi smiled and said to Gu Ningyue: "For others, it may be so, but for Xia Chuli, I'm afraid I'll be in a prison." ”

Gu Ningyue didn't know about Xia Chuli, she only knew that she was rescued by Lu Qingzi, so she was raised in Qian Baihan's mansion.

She didn't know anything about the rest.

Even these were told to her by Bai Fangxue inadvertently when Lu Qingzi didn't come back.

"How?" Gu Ningyue turned her head to look at Lu Qingzi and asked.

Lu Qingzi didn't know why today, but she was willing to take care of Ning Yue and say something about this, she said: "Xia Chuli is a girl I rescued on the way back to Beijing, and she is not Qian Baihan's cousin, I saved him at that time, but I just saw her pitiful and bullied, but I didn't have the strength to fight back, just like the days when I first arrived in Qi Kingdom." ”

Xia Chuli's helplessness at that time was the same as when she was hurt in the Qi Kingdom, she couldn't sit idly by.

"So later you sent her to Qian Baihan's house." Gu Ningyue looked at her and said, "But at that time, you shouldn't have thought that she would be favored by Zhou Qingwu!" ”

Lu Qingzi nodded, "Indeed, but I didn't expect this to be the only one, I didn't expect her to fall in love with Qian Baihan, and I didn't expect that she would willingly enter the palace as a concubine for Qian Baihan." ”

When Gu Ningyue heard Lu Qingzi say this, she became a little interested, "Xia Chuli fell in love with Qian Baihan, so he entered the palace?" ”

Lu Qingzi responded, "You don't know, Yang Yuecheng is now a general, and after Qian Baihan resigned from his official position, Zhou Qingwu did not give him any position, and it happened that at this time, Xia Chuli was favored by Zhou Qingwu. ”

The corners of Xia Chuli's mouth hooked up a smile, looked at Lu Qingzi and said, "That's why she entered the palace and wants to help Qian Baihan?" ”

"Yes, she would do this for Qian Baihan."

Lu Qingzi shook his head and smiled bitterly, and he didn't know whether it was right or wrong to send Xia Chuli to Qian Baihan's mansion at the beginning.
