Hu Liu'er's hand to get another chess piece stayed in mid-air, and when he heard this, he looked up at Xue Chen, and suddenly showed a strange smile.

"You know?"

"I am responsible for the death of Old Man Jiang." Xue Chen said in a deep voice.

He didn't want such a responsibility to be involved in other things, or even unrelated people, should one person's mistakes be borne by one person soon?

But before Xue Chen could say his inner thoughts, Hu Liu'er interrupted him.

"I understand what you're trying to say." Hu Liu'er said, "But I have checked the old man's body, it was a natural death, he just died of life, not framed by the people of the Five Poison Sect, don't try in vain to make me misunderstand you, and finally after I find out for myself, I can't regret it." ”

"You're thinking too much, I don't plan to take responsibility for myself that doesn't belong to me, I'm responsible because I shouldn't have let the old man take risks with us at such an age."

Wrong is wrong, Xue Chen still doubts that he feels a little regretful for acting rashly in order to save Su Qiange, but Xue Chen does not regret rescuing Su Qiange.

Hu Liu'er stared at Xue Chen, for a long time, and let out a sneer, "You are really conceited as always, I really don't know why I envy you in front of you." ”

"Because everyone thinks of me as conceited, but everyone is not capable, and for the ability to destroy themselves, everyone is either envious, worshipped, jealous, or afraid, which is normal." He grew up in such an environment

Xue Chen's meaning is actually very simple, no matter what kind of mentality Hu Liuer had in the past or now, it was just out of envy of his ability to destroy.

Hearing this, Hu Liu'er chuckled.

"Are you like this in front of the emperor?"

Xue Chen frowned when he heard this, he didn't like Hu Liu'er to mention the emperor at such a time.

What's more, Xue Chen now has some suspicions, Hu Liu'er is very likely to have something to do with the people who ambushed them this time, otherwise he wouldn't have found them so accurately.

"Instead of the emperor, let's talk about you and the dark soldiers who ambushed us first." Xue Chen stared at Hu Liu'er and said word by word.

"Oh?" Hu Liu'er tilted his head to look at Xue Chen, "Do you think I really have something to do with them?" ”

"It's okay, you're not going to sit here." Xue Chen said in a deep voice.

"But you don't have evidence, you can't do anything to me without evidence, can you?" Hu Liuer said and dropped another piece on the chessboard.

Xue Chen looked at the chess pieces on the chessboard, Hu Liu'er seemed to be standing in Jiang Lao's point of view, cracking his chess, there were a few moves right, Xue Chen admitted.

"You don't seem to know much about Dayun's legal system, and you don't know much about how I am in front of the emperor?"

Xue Chen never left Princess Ping'an's side when he spoke, even if the other party was cracking his chess game, Xue Chen still maintained his posture and looked at Hu Liu'er calmly.

"What, how different are you from the emperor's side?"

Saying that, Hu Liu'er glanced at Princess Ping'an beside Xue Chen, and suddenly nodded clearly, "That's right, yes, if your son is just an ordinary person around the emperor, how can the emperor let you protect his most beloved daughter?" He also wants you to be his son-in-law. ”

Saying that, Hu Liu'er frowned and said, "You said the emperor, why does he worry about everything?" He has to worry about the affairs of Fanbang, he has to worry about the marriage of his children, and he has to worry about the mother who is not his own mother, why is he so concerned? ”

Hu Liuer patted her thigh and sighed, her expression was hideous, and she wanted to force herself to smile, but that feeling made people feel even more creepy.

This is completely the same as Hu Liu'er whom Xue Chen met when he was in Qingcheng County, Xue Chen looked at Hu Liu'er and felt more and more strange, he felt that Hu Liu'er must have experienced something during this time.

Xue Chen remained silent and Huang Man looked Hu Liu'er up and down.

Hu Liu'er suddenly moved, looked at Xue Chen with a smile, frowned and said strangely, "You said that the emperor has so many thoughts that he can't finish, why don't he want to put some on national affairs?" ”

"I've heard people say that for so many years, the emperor has been rebelling against the dictatorship of the Queen Mother? But I think the Queen Mother did a good job, if he really let him do it, I estimate that this big cloud would have been abolished a long time ago, and it would have been destroyed in his hands! ”

Xue Chen listened to Hu Liu'er's meaning, and probably understood why he was like this.

But there is no way to be sure yet, so Xue Chen can only guide him and sneer and say to Hu Liu'er, "I think you say that grapes are sour because you can't eat grapes, and you can't see Mount Tai at all, just because of the unfairness you have suffered, you feel that everyone is wrong." ”

In fact, when Xue Chen came in, he noticed that Hu Liuer's long shirt was very uncommon with a high neck, and as long as his eyes stayed on Hu Liuer's neck, Hu Liuer would inevitably cover it up unnaturally.

Xue Chen guessed that Hu Liuer must have something unsightly around his neck.

And this kind of thing, what Xue Chen can think of most directly, is the imprint that Dayun can only have as a criminal with serious crimes.

Although Xue Chen was not sure, everything was just Xue Chen's speculation, but Hu Liuer's anger because of this proved Su Xue Chen's guess.

I saw Hu Liuer slapping his hands the chessboard, and even jumped the chess pieces on the entire chessboard, which shows that his anger should not be underestimated.

"Yes! I was blinded by a leaf, but this leaf didn't block my vision, it directly robbed my eyes! Saying that, Hu Liu'er stood up and walked up to Xue Chen excitedly, and ripped open his collar, which was a strip of cloth wrapped around his neck.

The strip of cloth was very tight, and Hu Liuer wanted to untie it at first, but it seemed too slow, and it was difficult for Hu Liuer to release it completely, so he went crazy again, and pulled the strip of cloth around his neck irregularly.

"Come and see, take a good look, what he has given me!"

After all, those strips of cloth were rudely ripped apart by Hu Liu'er, and Xue Chen stared at the position of Hu Liu'er's neck, where a piece of flesh was bent off raw, although it was irregular, but it could be seen that the final appearance should be round.

"I'm just leading the people who have been suppressed to beg them, but what do you think they gave me?"

As he spoke, Hu Liu'er almost irrepressibly threw the strip of cloth in his hand to the ground, and looked at Xue Chen tremblingly, with anger and color, from his face to his neck.

Xue Chen could even see the trembling on Hu Liu'er's fingertips.

He didn't yell and yell, Hu Liuer tried his best not to yell out during the whole process, but his every action was extremely angry and sad.

"So those people, those who ambushed us, are also the victims you brought with you?"

Xue Chen stared at Hu Liu'er, although he knew that he was too cruel at the moment, he sympathized with Hu Liu'er's experience, but he couldn't forget what he should do because of this.

If those people are disaster victims, then Xue Chen must admit that Hu Liuer's leadership and calling ability are indeed worthy of suppression by local officers and soldiers, not that such Hu Liuer is bad, but as a person who opposes imperial power and has such ability, Hu Liuer cannot exist.

Xue Chen saw such a problem clearly a long time ago, and Hu Liu'er only had a chance to see it clearly now.

Hu Liu'er stared at Xue Chen, as if she was watching a familiar person suddenly become unfamiliar, standing in front of him with a gradually losing temperature, Hu Liu'er didn't know whether this was sad or ridiculous.

He chuckled.

"It's really good, because it's the little marquis, so you can face other people's wounds calmly like this."

Saying that, Hu Liu'er took two steps back, and nodded madly, "That's right, you live this pampered life, even if you live in Qingcheng County, it's just a short moment in life, how can we compare with you?" ”

Hu Liuer laughed at herself.

"It's that I'm thinking too much, you and us are different after all, you enjoy the favor given by the emperor, how can you say that the emperor is not good?"

Hu Liu'er said in a mocking and desperate tone.

"You're going to be killed like that, worse than me."

Xue Chen was silent, staring at Hu Liu'er silently, trying to see the law of meaning from Hu Liu'er's words and deeds, and then find a right time to take Princess Ping'an away.

As for Hu Liuer, if he escaped or was captured by Captain Jin, that was his own life.

Although Xue Chen didn't like this situation very much, not interfering in the efforts of both sides was the best thing that Xue Chen could think of.

If Xue Chen is also involved in this matter, the emperor will inevitably be furious, and the entire crowd that Hu Liuer wants to protect may be involved.

While calculating everything in front of him, Xue Chen comforted Hu Liu'er with words.

"I didn't expect you to be such a leader, to be honest." Xue Chen said to Hu Liu'er, "When you were by Old Man Jiang's side, you were always quiet. ”

Obviously, Hu Liu'er didn't expect Xue Chen to suddenly say these words, and Hu Liu'er listened to all of Hu Liu'er's crazy actions and words.

His whole person was quietly observing Xue Chen, waiting for Xue Chen's next sentence.

Xue Chen continued, "It should be very difficult for you to be the one who leads people to make demands, right? After all, your character is not one to do such a thing. ”

Hu Liuer's eyes began to loosen.

"I guess you led people to ambush the convoy, and you also wanted to get a reasonable solution for the victims from the emperor, but you don't know if there can be other reasonable ways, so you used such a crude way."

After a pause, Xue Chen looked at Hu Liu'er, whose eyes were gradually regaining their brilliance, and continued.

"You are very powerful, really, you can lead such a large team and make such a tactical command, and ordinary generals can't compare to you."

"But I'm a sinner, and those tricks are just the ones I came up with after studying your chessboard." Hu Liu'er opened his mouth almost in despair.

"But you got it, didn't you?" Xue Chen looked at Hu Liu'er fixedly, trying to give him hope and soften him, a win-win situation is what Xue Chen wants to see the most, "If you ......"

Just as Xue Chen was trying to explain how to let Hu Liu'er work hard, a voice was coming from far and near outside the cave.

It's the Golden Captain, Xue Chen thought to himself.

Almost subconsciously, Xue Chen looked at Hu Liu'er, and Hu Liu'er's gaze, which was gradually gathering warmth, was instantly shattered and dyed with a layer of sadness.

It's almost instantaneous.

Hu Liu'er reached out and took out a dagger from his waist and rushed to Xue Chen.

Just when Xue Chen thought that Hu Liu'er was going to stab him, he instinctively snatched Hu Liu'er's dagger and pressed it against Hu Liu'er's chin, Hu Liu'er suddenly turned his head at the dagger and understood himself.

On the neck, where Hu Liuer was ashamed of the scar, blood rushed out, Hu Liuer fell to the ground and looked at Xue Chen, took out a sign from his arms and handed it to Xue Chen, trembling and evoking a smile.
