The emperor learned the news of Lu Yuanbai's return to Beijing, and then came to the palace to visit, but he was not informed in advance, and Lu Yuanbai was in a hurry to prepare.

"Imperial Brother ......" Lu Yuanbai was helped to the front hall, his pale face looked a little weak.

The emperor took the initiative to move forward, and his tone showed concern: "There are no monarchs and ministers here today, only brothers, I just came to see you." ”

"What about the divine doctor you personally invited through the mountains and rivers?" The emperor swept around, and did not see any superfluous figures, so he couldn't help but ask curiously.

Lu Yuanbai weakly pulled the corners of his mouth, and coughed twice as soon as he spoke: "The divine doctor met the killer halfway, the person is gone, and the younger brother barely picked up a life." ”

"How so? Didn't the guards you brought with you protect you, did you find out who did it?"

He shook his head, his eyes darkened: "Most of the guards are dead and wounded, as for who they are, the people of the younger brothers are too incompetent......"

"In that case, then I'll help you check, and I'll tell you as soon as I get the result. There was a hint of emotion in the emperor's eyes, and he agreed.

"Brother Chen doesn't care about this, now that the divine doctor is gone, I don't know what hope there is in the future......"

"Don't be so negative, the world is so big, I can't believe that I can't find someone who can cure you, there will definitely be hope again. ”

"Thank you, Brother Huang, for your comfort. After Lu Yuanbai sent the emperor away, he locked himself in the study and didn't see him come out all day.

Liu Yuezhi took the initiative to find Chi Yingchu, saying that she wanted to admit her mistakes, she shouldn't have doubts in her heart before, and let her give herself a chance to mend her ways.

Chi Yingchu glanced at her lightly, and said in an indifferent tone: "Trust is the basis of cooperation, you and I don't even have the most basic trust, how can we talk about cooperation?"

"So, are you going to agree?" Liu Yuezhi's face was anxious, a few tears were squeezed out of the corners of her eyes, and she reached out to pull her to be avoided.

But Chi Yingchu is not something that can be moved by her few tears, she has had thoughts of harming herself before, who knows if it will be like this again in the future?

"Why should I say yes?" she asked unceremoniously.

"It's understandable for you to question me, I'll find a way to prove it!" Liu Yuezhi nodded to herself, and said yes vigorously, as if she had made a great determination.

After she finished speaking, she pulled out her legs and ran out, Chi Yingchu didn't eat this set, so naturally she wouldn't chase her out to listen to her explanation or something, as she said in the book.

And Liu Yuezhi could have guessed a long time ago that she would not be so easy to talk about, but after she resolutely refused, the unwillingness in her heart became stronger and stronger.

The maid followed behind her in three steps and two steps, and quietly looked up at her figure: "Auntie, what should we do now?"

"What else can I do? Of course, take one step at a time, if she doesn't agree, she won't agree, I really think I can't do without her?"

Liu Yuezhi sneered lightly, her attitude at this time was similar to that of the two of them, and the maid listened to her words, so she didn't ask any more immediately.

Chi Yingchu was bored in the house, so she wanted to go out for a walk, and unconsciously walked to Qingzhuyuan, and inadvertently looked up and saw the old man.

Her delicate brows furrowed tightly, she had watched him fall that day, and there was no chance of surviving again, why did she see him here?

What the hell is going on? Or is she just looking away?

She had all kinds of guesses in her heart, her feet unconsciously quickened her pace, she walked in a hurry and didn't pay attention to her surroundings, she accidentally bumped into someone, and when she looked carefully, she found that it was a woman she had never seen.

The woman's appearance is not outstanding, she is not dressed like a maid, nor is she as delicate as other aunts, the other party did not blame her, but the maid was annoyed first.

"Do you know that this is the third aunt, if it is broken......

Chi Yingchu's eyes tightened, and she looked at her face carefully, and only opened her lips after a long time: "I'm sorry, I'm abrupt, are you okay?"

She had heard Liu Yuezhi say before that these three aunts and Lu Yuanbai were both medicine jars, but the latter was a fake, and she didn't know if the one in front of her was true or false.

The third aunt smiled, her expression was gentle and approachable: "It's okay, it's my maid who is in a hurry, don't you mind." ”

"Anyway, it's my fault, and I'll apologize myself another day. She hurriedly dropped a word and was about to leave, but she didn't see the man in her previous position.

Lu Yuanbai saw her movements in his eyes, couldn't help but sneer on his face, turned his face slightly, and instructed the secret guard behind him: "Go and pass the word to the people on Zhong Jingsong's side, it's time to get ready to do it." ”

He knew that the emperor still doubted himself, but it was indeed his own people who killed the prince, but if he didn't do it, he would be the one who died on the cliff that day.

"Yes. The Dark Guard quietly retreated.

Lu Yuanbai didn't see her again for two days, and Chi Yingchu went to the third aunt in person, her house was simply furnished, and a lot of calligraphy, painting and calligraphy were placed.

"That's a pretty word. I walked in, and what caught my eye was a pair of four-character poetry calligraphy, with vigorous and powerful strokes, and a bit of women's beauty.

The further you go inside, the stronger the smell of medicine, and the third aunt stepped forward with a smile: "If you like it, pick a favorite one and take it, and it's not a big deal." ”

She hurriedly waved her hand: "No merit, I ...... It's also too precious. ”

"It's just that I have nothing to write in my spare time, it's not a valuable item, I wrote another pair two days ago, and I'm about to frame it and send it to the prince's study. ”

Chi Yingchu's face was slightly shocked, her hand was lightly covered with the words on the calligraphy, the tip of her nose smelled the fragrance on the calligraphy and painting, and asked her curiously: "Where did the incense come from?"

"I polish the ink with the essence of the petals, and the fragrance of the flowers melts into the ink, so the calligraphy and painting also have a fragrance. The third aunt explained with a smile.

"I like it very much, can the third aunt give me some incense ink, and next time I will use some jewelry to give back. ”

When she thought of the message of the enemy army in her previous life, she would use a special kind of ink, which could not be seen in ordinary ways, but could only be seen by water or medicine.

I had heard people in the backyard say before that these three aunts did not fight or grab, and they were the best masters to get along with, but they were once rewarded by the emperor to enter the mansion, so Lu Yuanbai also had some respect for her.

She snorted coldly in her heart, it may not be really respectful, maybe it may be alienated and defensive, who will he not suspect?

"Okay, sister doesn't have to be so polite. ”

Chi Yingchu went back with Xiangmo, and first used a little to see if the writing would have that effect, but the result obviously disappointed her.

The words are only scented, but they are of no use.

She was a little distracted, and she didn't even notice that Lu Yuanbai was coming, he saw his name on the paper, and looked up at her coldly.

She was stared at by him so that her scalp tightened, and then she realized and explained: "Don't get me wrong, I just think the third aunt's handwriting is good-looking, so I wrote it to practice." ”

He didn't frown, opened his thin lips and asked, "Then why don't you write your own name, but write this king?"

"Who told you to see her today?"

He's here to ask about his sin?

She thought to herself that she hadn't done anything else to the third aunt, so she wouldn't run away to sue, right?

Who knew that then I heard him speak: "This king doesn't want to guess what your purpose is for doing this, if you want to pass the news to Zhong Jingsong, by the way, you can also help this king bring a word, this king wants him to die!"
