"Who does Master Hou want?"

An Jue asked with a stiff face, vaguely guessing what Chu Huai'an wanted to do, but Chu Huai'an still hung his appetite, pretending to clear his throat hypocritically: "Does An Zhuwei usually stand and talk with his colleagues like this?" ”

"Come on, serve tea to Master Hou!"

After An Jue finished speaking, he walked to the conference hall with his hands behind his back, the military intelligence department was newly established by the ministers to discuss, and this mansion was also newly repaired, and everywhere was full of the bright and spacious atmosphere of the new house, bypassing the winding corridor, you could see some wooden stakes and school grounds for practicing martial arts, and many people were practicing in it, but this place was far less majestic than the momentum of the Saibei military camp.

Su Li only glanced at it and then withdrew her gaze, not surprised by these scenes at all, An Jue secretly paid attention to her reaction, and her eyes darkened when she saw this.

Finally walked to the conference hall, An Jue subconsciously wanted to sit in the main seat, but Chu Huai'an took the first step and sat down steadily, and deliberately looked at An Jue and asked, "Why doesn't An Zhuwei sit?" ”

“……”

An Jue gritted a mouthful of good teeth and swallowed it into his stomach with blood, in terms of status, status, and rank, Chu Huai'an is now several heads higher than him, and he really can't fight for this main position.

"Hou Ye is respected, and Hou Ye should be the first."

An Juepi replied with a smile, made a gesture of invitation, and then sat down in the first place of the next head, Zhao Qi stood next to him with a straight back with a sword.

Chu Huai'an sat down and didn't sit down, leaned lazily on the back of the chair, waited for the next person to serve tea, picked up the cup and took a sip, turned his head and sprayed the tea leaves at An Jue.

An Jue and Zhao Qiju are military attachés, and they had already noticed it as early as when Chu Huai'an was about to spray, Zhao enabled his sleeves to block An Jue, An Jue quickly got up and retreated, but no matter how fast the two moved, they still didn't beat Chu Huai'an, Zhao Qi's sleeves were sprayed wet for most of the time, and An Jue's head was inevitably stained with a few pieces of tea, how embarrassed and embarrassed.

"Master Hou! Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated! ”

An Jue gritted his teeth and roared, and the hand hanging by his side clenched into a fist, as if he would pounce on Chu Huai'an at any time.

Chu Huai'an spit out the last tea in his mouth and apologized insincerely: "The tea in your military intelligence department is too unpalatable, and Ben Hou didn't mean it, what is An Zhuwei so excited about." ”

“…… The military prescription was established, the official affairs were complicated, and it was understandable that he failed to make tea that suited Hou Ye's appetite, and now that Hou Ye tea has also been drunk, is it time to do business? ”

An Jue suppressed his anger and asked, if it weren't for Chu Huai'an's unjust order, he would probably have drawn his sword and stabbed him.

After teasing people, Chu Huai'an put down the teacup and looked down, took out the appearance of talking about business, and before he could speak, he first took out the yellow and clear golden injustice order from his waist and put it on the table.

As soon as they saw this order, An Jue and Zhao Qi immediately knelt down and saluted the monarch and ministers in front of the injustice order.

"Ben Hou hasn't spoken yet, why did you kneel down before you speak?" Chu Huai'an asked deliberately, his eyes glowed with cold light, and he just stepped forward to step on An Jue.

An Jue's qi and blood were about to turn over to the heavenly spirit cover, but his face remained calm, and he replied with a restrained temper: "If you see this order, if you see Your Majesty, the lower officials will not dare to disobey it." ”

"Cousin Huang is just talking, I didn't expect An Zhuwei to be so obedient, he is really loyal." Chu Huai'an praised it, stretched out his hand and patted An Jue's head twice, like teasing a dog.

An Jue didn't speak, but Su Li could hear the gurgling sound of his teeth standing next to him.

"That's it!" Chu Huai'an withdrew his hand, his mood was much better, he didn't finish the fun once, raised his chin and asked: "The emperor's cousin gave Ben Hou the official position and token, but not to Ben Hou, Ben Hou thought about it, and felt that Zhao Vice Wei was not bad, and he came today to borrow Lord Zhao and his own soldiers with An Zhuwei." ”

Where is this borrowing? It's clear that it's here to rob people!

An Jue's face was as black as the bottom of the pot, staring at Chu Huai'an without speaking, Zhao Qi was also surprised, and subconsciously looked at Su Li, thinking that she had said something to Chu Huai'an.

Su Li lowered her eyes and didn't look at him, only stared at the tips of her shoes.

Chu Huai'an got up and stretched: "What's the matter, Lord An refuses to give it?" ”

Where is An Jue willing to give? Zhao Hanzhuo is now able to freely enter and exit the military intelligence department, Dali Temple Shengsheng slashed the military intelligence department, Chu Huai'an borrowed Zhao Qi again, didn't he become a bare-bones commander?

"Master Hou, if you want manpower, you can ask Your Majesty directly, why ......"

An Jue tried to reason with Chu Huai'an, but the new and old grudges are here, is Chu Huai'an the one who will reason with him?

He lazily lifted his eyes, and his slightly narrowed eyes formed a narrow arc, revealing two points of evil: "Why, what does An Zhuwei mean is that he still wants Benhou to enter the palace to ask for a decree, so that he can invite your subordinate Deputy Wei?" ”

Kyoto is the heart of Yuanzhao Kingdom, in addition to the city guard, the Imperial Forest Army, the royal family also has a secret guard, Jingzhao Yin's Mansion has a headcatcher, and the six doors have a Yulin Guard, no matter how bad it is, the Protector Mansion also has a group of guards who can go into battle to kill the enemy, Chu Huai'an wants people, just beckon, he can not know this?

But he just wants to ask for someone from under An Jue's hands.

The two confronted each other silently, Chu Huai'an still looked careless, his slender jade hand was tapping on the injustice order for a while, An Jue pursed his lips, his face was tense into a blade, and he wished that his eyes could turn into a hidden weapon and shoot Chu Huaian into a sieve.

The air gradually froze, but Zhao Qi took the initiative to break the deadlock, bowed down and asked, "How long does Master Hou want to borrow a humble position?" ”

"It won't be long, just a few hours, and you'll be here tomorrow to do your errand as usual!"

Chu Huai'an showed a mouthful of white teeth and said happily, hearing that it was only a few hours, An Jue's face was a little better, but he couldn't pull his face to agree, Zhao Qi hurriedly gave the steps: "Lord An, I am willing to serve the Hou Ye for a few hours." ”

An Jue said 'um' from the tip of his nose with a cold face, which can be regarded as agreeing.

got a response, Chu Huai'an took the injustice order back into his pocket, and snapped his fingers at An Jue: "Lord An, don't be so stingy, the knot between us is not small, this is just the beginning, if you don't hold up your strength earlier, I'm afraid that it will be easy to get stuck in your heart and die young!" ”

“…… The health of the lower official is very good, don't worry about the Hou Ye, the Hou Ye still worry about himself, Your Majesty appointed you as a wronged envoy, is it really a mischief for you? ”

An Jue smiled and fought back, his eyes were like a barb, and he wanted to hook the bloody flesh from the other party's body before he stopped.

He can ask this sentence, and he is not a reckless and brainless person, but Chu Huai'an has not changed his opinion of him at all, and rolled his eyes when he heard this: "Lord An has this time to eat salty radishes and worry about it, you might as well find a reliable goddess to help you choose a place with better feng shui as a cemetery!" ”

After Chu Huai'an finished speaking, he took Su Li out of the military intelligence office first, and waited at the gate for a while, Zhao Qi walked out with a dozen or so people, all of whom were burly, with a big knife with a cold light on their waists, and they were imposing.

Chu Huai'an nodded with satisfaction, and threw a gold ingot to Zhao Qi: "Wait until you finish your errand, and drink wine and eat meat with your vice Wei!" ”

These words instantly ignited morale, and everyone was like a chicken, and they didn't care about wondering why the people in the military intelligence department still listened to Xiaoyaohou's dispatch.

Zhao Qi knew more than the others, and asked Chu Huai'an more: "Master Hou, where are we going?" ”

"Raid the house!"

Chu Huai'an lazily lost two words and got into the carriage with Su Li.

The coachman threw off the whip, and the carriage staggered in the dim sunset, and Zhao Qi led a dozen or so people to lag behind for a distance, and ran neatly behind.

The sound of footsteps attracted the attention of residents on both sides of the street, and some of the bold boudoir women poked their heads out of the second-floor windows to see what was happening.

The carriage ran from the east of the city to the west of the city, and after half an hour, the coachman pulled the reins of the horse and stopped, Su Li was about to get off the carriage, Chu Huai'an stretched out his long legs, and just stopped in front of her: "Someone is working, what are you going to do?" ”

“……”

Su Li sat down and didn't move, and after a while, Zhao Qi lifted the carriage curtain and leaned into half of his body.

After running all the way, he inevitably gasped a little, his forehead was full of hot sweat, but his complexion had not changed much.

"Master Hou, this is Lord Li Yong's mansion."

"Ben Hou knows."

"What are you going to do now?" Zhao Qi asked, and others also came one after another, Chu Huai'an was speechless when he heard it, and looked at Zhao Qi angrily and asked, "What is Zhao Vice Wei's brain made of?" What Ben Hou just said half an hour ago, you forgot in the blink of an eye? Ben Hou asked you to raid the house! ”

“…… To copy the house, there must be a copy order of Dali Temple, and ...... What crime did Master Lee commit? ”

"Li Xiancheng bribed Ben Hou, and the stolen money is on Ben Hou's mansion, Ben Hou now suspects him of looting the people's fat and people's ointment, bullying the people, and wants to raid his home, Zhao Vice Wei has an opinion?"

“……”

Zhao Qi was dumbfounded, the first time he saw someone copying his house so neatly, he hesitated for a while and reminded him: "Master Hou, Your Majesty named you as a messenger of injustice, so that you can thoroughly investigate the fact that you were framed and blamed, Lord Li, this matter should be handed over to Dali Temple......"

Zhao Qi is not a verbose person on weekdays, but at this time, Chu Huai'an ran out of patience and kicked him out: "If you ask you to copy the house, you will copy it, what nonsense!" ”

There was an order of injustice, Zhao Qi did not dare to disobey, and the people who ran over were in a whole team, and they went towards the gate of the Li Mansion. ”

The family guarding the door trembled with fright, mother, isn't the military intelligence department specialized in investigating military affairs? How did you find out the head of the county official?

To say that An Jue still has some skills, Zhao Qihe and his subordinates are all very capable, after entering the house, they spontaneously divided into two teams, arresting people and arresting people, and searching for dirty people, poor Li Yong and Chu Huai'an met during the day and came back to share the good news with the concubine, and the two rolled in the quilt before they rubbed a little spark, and they were splashed out by the guards who broke into the door.

The Li Mansion was in chaos for a while, and it didn't take long for three large boxes of gold and silver jewelry to be carried out, Li Yong and the concubine came out tremblingly, the two of them didn't have time to put on their clothes, they were frozen like a sheep going crazy, and that Li Gongzi was still drunk and dreaming of death in Lanyue Pavilion, and he happened to miss this big drama of copying the house.

"Master Hou, there is indeed a large amount of money of unknown origin in Lord Li's mansion, what should I do with it now?"

Zhao Qi asked loudly, he didn't expect that Li Yong's mansion could find so much money, just these three boxes of things, he took off the black gauze hat on his head.

Li Yong was stunned, he didn't know why he was staying at home so well, why so many people suddenly rushed in, and when he heard the word 'Hou Ye', he immediately wailed like grasping a life-saving straw: "Hou Ye! Hou Ye hurry up and save the lower official, the lower official is really wronged! ”

This person howled so badly that Chu Huai'an lifted the curtain of the car, and casually swept around to look at Zhao Qi: "Didn't Zhao Vice Wei say that this matter should be managed by Dali Temple?" Don't you want to throw people to Dali Temple? ”

Zhao Qi: "......"

When I was arrested, there was no matter of Dali Temple, but when I was close to people, there was work in Dali Temple?

Zhao Qi slandered, knowing what kind of character Chu Huai'an was, he didn't say anything, and took people to Dali Temple.

Seeing Chu Huai'an like this, Li Yong howled even more fiercely, Chu Huai'an listened impatiently, and asked the coachman to go back, put down the car curtains, and block the disturbance outside.

As night fell, there was no light in the carriage, and it was so dark that it was impossible to see each other's expressions, except for the sound of the horses' hooves and the sound of the coachman raising his whips in the air.

Li Yong's looting of the people's fat and ointment was a certainty, but Chu Huai'an was too resolute in handling it, and without giving anyone a word of consultation, he directly took people to raid the Li Mansion.

Li Yong also said that he was going to be promoted to Beijing, it can be seen that there are people behind him, and now that he has been arrested, how to deal with the intricate relationship behind him?

"Master Hou, will today's matter be too rushed?"

In the dark, Su Li asked in a low voice, the wind blew the curtains of the car, leaking in a few candles on the doors of the people on the side of the road, in the dim candlelight, the man with a beautiful face like jade leaned against the wall of the carriage, and was looking at her by mistake, his eyes were deep and dark, and he could not see the bottom.

In just an instant, darkness returned to the carriage, but the man's eyes lingered in Su Li's mind.

"It's me who copied his house, even if there is anything, I have to bear it, besides, there is still more than a month of spring grain and grass to be transported to the border, aren't you in a hurry?"

Su Li was silently asked, this is what she went back to Beijing for this time, how could she not be in a hurry? But urgency is not this emergency method, if it stirs up chaos in the DPRK and China, and forces some people to jump over the wall in a hurry, it will not be good.

"Lord Hou......"

Su Li wanted to say something, the carriage drove through an uneven section, and when the car was bumpy, Su Li inertia rushed forward and threw herself into a thick fat and powdery embrace.

The man's strong arms wrapped around her waist, helping her to stabilize her figure, and in the darkness, her lips brushed against the warm skin, and I don't know if it was the man's forehead or cheeks.

Su Li raised her hand and propped it up wildly, and was about to get up on the wall of the carriage, but Chu Huai'an held her waist and didn't let go.

The hot and humid breath hit the face, showing how close they were.

"Is Ah Li worried about me, or is she worried that because I'm in a hurry, I've hurt that person who is thousands of miles away?"

Chu Huai'an asked in a low voice, like a very gentle murmur but with a hint of self-abandonment.

Su Li pursed her lips and didn't say a word, she tried hard to keep her distance from Chu Huai'an, maintaining this position, her waist quickly became sore, but fortunately, it didn't take long for Chu Huai'an to let go of her.

After the arm was withdrawn, there was a chill in the waist for a moment, and Su Li groped back to the position just now and sat down.

I didn't speak again all the way, and when I arrived at the Hou Mansion, the housekeeper greeted her as usual, Su Li took the lead in getting off the car and waiting by the carriage, Chu Huai'an came down slowly, saw her standing with low eyebrows, and said lazily: "I don't need you to serve in the future!" After speaking, he looked at the housekeeper: "In the Hou Mansion in the future, all her expenses will be in accordance with the specifications of the third lady of Shangshu Mansion!" ”

The housekeeper was surprised for a moment, and then replied quickly: "Yes, Master Hou!" ”

After speaking, Chu Huai'an walked in leisurely with a fan, and the housekeeper followed Su Li back to the yard to check around, noting what things to buy.

"The housekeeper doesn't have to be so troublesome, I think this yard is pretty good."

Besides, it won't last long.

Su Li tried to stop it, but the housekeeper looked at Su Li and sighed: "Miss Su, Hou Ye has had a messy life in the past five years, if you don't come back, Hou Ye's life will probably be wasted, the old slave doesn't know what happened between Miss Su and Hou Ye, but Hou Ye wants to make up for it in this way now, and asks Miss Su to give Hou Ye a chance." ”

The housekeeper said sincerely, he was an old man in the Xiaoyao Mansion, and after seeing Chu Huai'an's young and proud appearance, he finally didn't want to see him indulge in wine all day long.

The housekeeper was out of kindness, Su Li didn't explain and didn't insist, and when he left, he took out the picture of mother and son safety that he hadn't finished before and continued.

This housekeeper came out of Su Li's yard, and did not rush to find someone to buy it overnight, but went to Chu Huai'an's yard first.

“…… The bed should be replaced with a new one, bed tents, gauze curtains and the like, a Luo smoke tent, there is a ready-made Longyang quilt in the quilt house, go to Jinyun Store tomorrow to buy a dresser, and ......"

The housekeeper displayed the things to be purchased in detail, Chu Huaian sat on the chair and listened carefully, but his eyes were a little wandering, listening to what the housekeeper said, his thoughts didn't know where he went.

The housekeeper said with a dry mouth, bent down slightly and asked tentatively, "Master Hou, do you think this is okay?" ”

"You can do it yourself."

......, "Since you don't want to take care of things, why do you want me to bother to say it again?"

The wrinkles on the housekeeper's face twitched, he didn't dare to complain, and was about to salute and leave, when he suddenly heard Chu Huai'an ask: "Five years ago, Su Li came to me, do you remember this incident?" ”

The housekeeper chuckled in his heart, but fortunately he lowered his head, did not immediately show his flaws, his brain was thinking quickly, and he replied with a smile: "Miss Su and Hou Ye are childhood sweethearts, and they often visit each other's houses, which time did Hou Ye say?" ”

In fact, they are not visiting each other, the Su family is very strict, how could Su Li, a woman who has not been out of the cabinet, come to the Xiaoyao Hou Mansion at will? It's just that Chu Huai'an often finds various reasons to go to Shangshu Mansion.

"Before she left Beijing, she came to look for me, but I was drunk that night and I don't remember what happened." I don't even remember saying the words 'dirty' to her.

Even if he was delirious at the time, he should never have said such a damaging remark.

Five years ago, Su Li was in such a situation, if someone chewed the root of his tongue behind his back and smashed the word 'dirty' on Su Li's body and he heard it, I am afraid that he would be stripped off a layer of skin, I never thought that he would say such a thing to Su Li in person, no wonder her attitude towards him was so alienated and wary after returning to Beijing.

Chu Huai'an rubbed his head and thought about it, and suddenly remembered that he had a personal servant before.

"What about Alai? When did he leave? ”

"Master Hou forgot, Ah Lai accidentally fell off the horse and lame five years ago, and the government gave him a silver money to go home to treat his leg."

"Where is his hometown? Where is it now? Chu Huai'an asked, his eyes were quite expectant, and the housekeeper raised his head, a little hesitant: "Does Master Hou have anything to do with him?" ”

"You are so confused that you can't remember, he must remember, besides, he is my personal servant, even if I am drunk, he should keep vigil for me at the door, through such a door, he can hear what the people in the house say." The more Chu Huaian thought about it, the more he felt that this was the reason, and slapped his thigh and ordered: "You let someone find him, I have something to ask him!" ”

“…… Master Hou, it's been five years, and I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to find. ”

The housekeeper said hesitantly, Chu Huai'an's newly brightened face was clouded, and he stared at the housekeeper with slightly squinted eyes, until the butler's back bent down again.

Five years ago, Su Bangyue got married, and then Su Li ran away from home and had no news, he was caught off guard by these two things, and after a period of days and nights, almost all the people in the house changed during that time, but at that time he was not in the mood to care about these, so he didn't notice anything abnormal, but now he thinks about it everywhere.

If it weren't for something big happening in the house, how could so many people be replaced?

The more I thought about it, the more sure there was something in the middle, Chu Huai'an suddenly laughed coldly, and slapped the table lightly: "Housekeeper, are you old and confused, or do you know too much and don't want to live?" ”

The housekeeper knelt down with a thud, knocked the old bones on the ground, and stammered in defense: "Master Hou, old ...... The old slave didn't dare! ”

"Don't dare? I see you're so bold! ”

Chu Huai'an stood up with a loud shout, and regardless of the housekeeper on the ground, he strode out of the room and went straight to Chu Liu's courtyard.

His steps were sold very large, the wind was blowing under his feet, the hem of his clothes embroidered with large flowers was kicked into a slender arc, and his face was so heavy that it could drip water.

The housekeeper had a bad intuition, and dragged a handful of old bones behind Chu Huai'an, but he was thrown far away, and he could only watch Chu Huai'an break into Chu Liu's courtyard and overturn the two old grandmothers.

After dinner, Chu Liu's chanting and chanting Buddha in the small Buddha hall, when Chu Huai'an pushed the door in, the action was quite big, and the risk of the two doors was extinguishing the candle on the desk.

Chu Liu opened his eyes and looked at him, his expression was calm: "What are you going to do in a hurry?" Didn't I keep telling you to take it steady? ”

Chu Liu's dress is plain, I don't know if it's Chu Huai'an's illusion, it's only been a day, and she seems to have lost some weight.

After meeting Chu Liu's like this, Chu Huai'an's anger was suppressed, he walked to the futon next to Chu Liu's and knelt down, and first put a stick of incense on the Buddha statue: "My son is not filial, so I disturbed my mother's cultivation." ”

In the end, it was his mother, Chu Huai'an apologized first, Chu Liu took off the bead string on his wrist and put it on the table, and took a wooden fish and put it in front of him and tapped it gently.

"It's okay, it's not been a day or two since you've been so reckless."

Chu Liu replied, the movements of his hands did not stop, the wooden fish was knocked round and shiny, and his voice seemed to have the power to soothe people's hearts.

Chu Huai'an calmed down a little again, he turned his head to look at Chu Liu, and asked softly: "Mother, Ah Li came to me five years ago, do you know about this?" ”

He asked bluntly, just like the style of letting Zhao Qi go to raid his house today, others like to be tempted in a roundabout way, but he has always been straight to the point.

The sound of the wooden fish stopped abruptly, and Chu Liu opened his eyes and looked at Chu Huai'an: "Why do you suddenly ask this?" ”

"What do you think?" Chu Huaian asked rhetorically, not wanting to show his hole cards.

This person is the meat that fell from Chu Liu's body, can Chu Liu's not understand him? He can ask like this, most likely because he only knows some trivial things to deceive her.

It's just some conjectures that are angry like this, if he knows everything, he won't lift the roof?

Chu Liu thought about it in his heart, he had already thought of the wording in his heart, got up and closed the door of the small Buddha hall, closed the door bolt, and then spoke: "Ah Li did come to look for you on the night she left Beijing. ”

After receiving an affirmative answer, Chu Huaian couldn't control his anger a little, and raised his voice to ask, "Why are you hiding it from me?" ”

"You don't remember it yourself, do I have to do it in front of you?"

Chu Liu retorted, choking Chu Huai'an speechless, he now wanted someone to pry open his head and take out that memory to show him what happened.

Why did he get drunk that night? Why do you want to forget what happened that day?

Chu Huai'an's momentum weakened a little, because of the previous conversation with Su Li, his heart was extremely uncomfortable, his eyes were hot, and he was inexplicably a little aggrieved, relying on Chu Liu's favor and muttering: "No matter what, you shouldn't hide it from me." ”

His tone softened, and Chu Liu's was not so tough, he sighed and patted him on the shoulder: "Sincerely, I am your mother, you hide it from me, what else can I do for your good?" ”

Chu Huai'an raised his head and looked at Chu Liu's directly: "That mother can tell me now, why are you hiding it from me?" ”

His eyes were unswerving, and he was obsessed with looking for an answer, Chu Liu knew that there were some things that he couldn't hide, and sighed longly: "She secretly came in over the wall that night, and others didn't know about it, I was worried that you were drunk and making trouble, and I wanted to come and see you, but I never wanted to hear you talk to her in the house." ”

Speaking of this, Chu Liu paused for a moment, and looked at Chu Huai'an with deep eyes: "If I hadn't heard it outside the door by chance that night, I wouldn't have known that I would abandon the title for a woman, and I wouldn't even want to be a mother!" ”

"In the end, I didn't really do it, don't change the subject."

Chu Huai'an said a word, his eyes eagerly waited for the following, Chu Liu didn't hold on to this anymore, and continued: "You two are really bold, Ah Li came to you to ask why you didn't go to the land temple outside the city to find her that night. ”

Chu Huai'an frowned: "I didn't ask her to meet that night!" ”

"That's what you answered her that night." Chu Liu nodded, and his expression slowly became solemn: "But after you said that, she suddenly laughed like crazy, she said that someone imitated your handwriting and asked her out to design to harm her." ”

"Who's that guy?"

Chu Huai'an couldn't wait to ask, when it came to this, he had a faint guess, countless times Su Li questioned in his dreams, what he didn't believe was this person who would murder her.

"Who is that person, will you not count it in your heart? If she hadn't said the person you put on the tip of your heart, would you have slandered her with words like 'dirty'? ”

Rumble!

Chu Huai'an's brain exploded with a bang, almost so much that he couldn't think.

From Chu Liu's mouth, he verified what Su Li said, he did say that he would hurt Su Li, but he didn't expect that the person who harmed her in Su Li's mouth would be Su Bangyue.

But if it weren't for Su Bangyue, how could he not believe her?

Seeing that Chu Huai'an was so stunned that he couldn't speak, Chu Liu took advantage of the situation to tell all the things that followed, but changed his words: "I was also extremely shocked when I heard these things at that time, but at that time, the person in her mouth had already entered the East Palace as a side concubine, if she was messing around, it would not only be the dispute between the Su family's concubines, but also the royal face and the Su family's net worth. ”

Chu Liu's words put herself in the position of a good mother who took care of the overall situation and forbeared, and did not mention the fact that she let Su Li be sold into Goolan Courtyard.

This matter is disgraceful, and with the current relationship between Su Li and Chu Huai'an, it is impossible for Su Li to confess to Chu Huai'an.

Thinking of this, Chu Liu's family finally felt at ease, since she knew that Su Li had killed someone, this matter was stuck in her heart, which made her uneasy, and she couldn't even calm down in the Buddhist hall, but she was afraid that when Chu Huai'an found out, it would hurt the relationship between mother and son, and now Chu Huai'an came to ask in person, she took the opportunity to say it, but gave her an excellent step.

Seeing that Chu Huai'an was still in shock and couldn't come back to his senses, Chu Liu raised his hand and gently stroked the back of Chu Huai'an's head, and was just about to say comfort, Chu Huai'an suddenly raised his head and looked at her with burning eyes.

"Mother, what you just said, is it true?"

“…… What do you mean? Sincerely, are you doubting to be a mother? Chu Liu asked in surprise, and the hand on the back of Chu Huai'an's head trembled slightly.

Chu Huai'an didn't answer her, and turned his head to look at the Buddha statue that refracted the golden light, the Buddha statue was kind and kind, as if it could purify all sentient beings.

Chu Huai'an doesn't believe in Buddhism, but Chu Liu believes in it.

Chu Huai'an knelt down, straightening his body, and for the first time he was as devout as a believer.

"Mother, this is in the Buddha Hall, the Buddha is watching, today's matter, the son comes to ask you, that is to trust you, every word you say, the son believes, but if you have half a lie, for the rest of your life, the son will use this life to repay the debt owed to her!"

Chu Huai'an's speech was not fast, but it was extremely smooth, as if these words had been drafted several times in his mind, and Chu Liu's had no time to stop it, so he had already made an oath, leaned over and slammed his head on the bluestone floor tiles, making a dull sound, like a heavy hammer slammed into Chu Liu's chest.

"How can you say such a thing so easily, parents of the body?" Chu Liu's legs were limp on Chu Huai'an's body, and he smashed Chu Huai'an with his fists to hide his weakness: "If she really has any resentment towards her mother, she should repay it for her mother, and it won't be your turn!" ”

"My mother didn't tell a lie, and those retributions won't fall on my son, why is my mother so excited?"

Chu Huai'an asked calmly, his dark eyes with a sharpness that pierced everything, blocking Chu Liu's words in his throat.

Ninety percent of what she just said was true, and in the last one, she did let Su Li go, but the place she went to was Goolan Courtyard.

It's just that he didn't say a word, and the Buddha wouldn't mind.

Chu Liu gritted his teeth, pursed his lips to hide this, and never told Chu Huai'an about it.

Seeing that her face turned pale and blue, Chu Huai'an was no longer aggressive, helped Chu Liu to stand up, and comforted her gently: "Five years ago, my son was ignorant, which made my mother worried, and my son knew that the ideas that my mother took for my son were all for the good of my son, and if there was really any retribution on my son, my son would definitely not complain about my mother." ”

These words fell on Chu Liu's ears, and they were simply heartfelt, even if it was the slightest risk, she actually didn't want Chu Huai'an to bear it.

The defensive line in his heart was defeated, and Chu Liu grabbed Chu Huai'an's hand: "Be careful, it's actually ......"

"Master Hou! Oh no! ”

The little guy's exclamation drowned out Chu Liu's words, and the next moment, the door of the Buddha hall was slammed, Chu Huai'an let go of Chu Liu's and opened the door, the little guy stumbled in, saw Chu Liu's, and hurriedly suppressed the panic and stood up straight and saluted: "Madam, I'm ...... I'm looking for Master Hou! ”

Looking at this situation, most of them were things that could not be said in front of Chu Liu.

Chu Liu's mood had risen and fallen several times, and he couldn't bear more stimulation, so he hurriedly raised his hand: "Since there is an urgent matter, let's deal with it first." ”

"Mother, take care of your body."

Chu Huai'an politely led the little maid to turn around and leave, out of Chu Liu's courtyard, the little maid leaned into Chu Huai'an's ear and whispered: "Master Hou, just now there is news in the palace, the Queen Mother has punished the concubine for some reason, the mother has a fetal gas, and Imperial Doctor Gao has been invited into the palace." ”

Got a tire? How can it be so serious?

Chu Huai'an frowned, his steps quickened, and he subconsciously wanted to rush out of the door, but from a distance, he saw Su Li walking towards his yard, and he seemed to be holding something in his hand.

After a pause, Chu Huai'an called: "Ah Li! ”

Su Li turned around, and after returning home, she changed into women's clothes, and her soft hair was only tied with a silk ribbon, obviously there was no special decoration, but people couldn't take their eyes off it.

Su Li walked slowly, and when she came to the front of her, she saw that his expression was different, and she whispered: "What's wrong?" Does Hou Ye still want to go out at this time? ”

She didn't know what was going on, her eyes were confused, like a child, which inexplicably made Chu Huai'an's throat hurt and she couldn't speak.

The little girl also knew Su Li's identity, and she was very anxious next to her, and quietly pulled Chu Huai'an's sleeve to urge.

Chu Huaian woke up suddenly and blurted out: "The Queen Mother punished Su Guifei, Su Guifei is now angry!" ”

That's the case, sure enough, only if it's something related to Su Bangyue, he will be in a hurry like this.

Su Li nodded, wanting to squeeze out a little concern, but the expression on her face was still faint: "Is the Hou Ye going to enter the palace at this moment?" That can bring this painting with you, which can be regarded as a good omen for the eldest sister. ”

Chu Huai'an stretched out his hand to take the scroll and asked casually, "What kind of painting is this?" ”

"The mother and son I asked for earlier asked me for a picture of the safety of the mother and son."

“……”

The hand holding the scroll tightened suddenly, and Chu Huai'an's eyes glared at Su Li sharply: "Who asked you to write?" Did I ask you to draw later? ”

"I keep in mind what Master Hou said, and I dare not miss it."

Su Li lowered her eyes and replied, her voice was low, but in Chu Huai'an's eyes, it was like the most open-toothed revenge, revenge for not remembering what he said that night five years ago, revenge for not believing her five years ago.

"Do you really want their mother and son to be safe?"

Chu Huai'an was so angry that he didn't care that the little guy was still beside him, so he asked Su Li such a thing.

Since Su Li suspected that Su Bangyue framed her five years ago, she must have hatred for Su Bangyue in her heart, and even after five years, there will be no elimination of that hatred!

Chu Huai'an's current state is not right Su Li can sense it, he probably knows something, or maybe he knows everything, but Su Li is not afraid at all, she replied categorically: "Of course, I hope that the mother and son of the noble concubine are safe, I hope that Your Majesty will be happy to win the dragon heir, and I hope that the country of Yuanzhao will be prosperous!" ”

This is like a sycophant, but it is so sincere that there is no trace of concealment.

Chu Huai'an's hand holding the scroll was loose and tight, and his heart seemed to be burned repeatedly on a fire, and he just needed to sprinkle some seasoning to take it down and eat it.

He hadn't figured out what had happened five years ago, but the guilt for Su Li was already overflowing, and with the scars on her back, he really didn't know what to do with her.

"Master Hou, if it's too late, the palace gate will be locked!"

The little guy stubbornly opened his mouth to urge, if the palace gate is locked, he will not be able to enter the palace tonight, in fact, a lot of things can happen in one night, others can wait, but Chu Huaian can't wait.

Forcibly suppressing his thoughts, Chu Huaian pulled Su Li and walked outside together: "Follow me into the palace." ”

Just four simple words, Su Li didn't respond, only trotted and tried to keep up with Chu Huai'an's steps.

It's time for the night fastbreak, there is no one on the street, the carriage is speeding all the way, when it arrives at the palace gate, there is still some time before the palace gate is locked, Chu Huai'an flashed his waist card and took Su Li straight into the palace, crossed a few palace gates, and happened to meet Zhang De, the head of internal affairs, Chu Huai'an grabbed Zhang De's dust with one hand, and startled people: "Where is the imperial cousin?" ”

"Your Majesty...... His Majesty is still discussing matters in the imperial study, what is the matter with the Hou Ye? ”

Zhang De replied in disbelief, and the two little eunuchs serving tea behind him were also frightened.

Su Wanyue is pregnant with Chu Lingzhao's first child, and now she has fetal gas, no matter whether the matter is serious or not, Chu Lingzhao should be by her side, how can she still discuss matters in the imperial study?

Did Su Bangyue fall out of favor or did something really happen?

Chu Huai'an secretly guessed, let go of Zhang De, pulled Su Li and walked straight towards the imperial study, adjusting his emotions all the way, and when he arrived at the door of the imperial study, Chu Huai'an had suppressed all the anxiety and anxiety in the future, and returned to his usual debauchery.

The palace people guarding the door shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Xiaoyao asks to see!" ”

A moment later, the door of the imperial study opened, and the bright lights poured out, elongating the shadows of the two of them on the steps of the entrance to the imperial study.

Su Li took a step behind and walked into the imperial study behind Chu Huai'an, without squinting, leaning down and kneeling.

"Greetings to Your Majesty, Long live Your Majesty, Long live, Long live!"

"The people's daughter Su Li greets Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

After speaking, both of them leaned over to the ground, Chu Lingzhao was not in a hurry to let Chu Huai'an get up, the atmosphere in the imperial study was unusually quiet for a moment, and Chu Lingzhao's deep voice sounded: "Sincerely, are you guilty?" ”
