The cronie came back and said that Tao Xinzhu went to the same place every day, which was a private house in the west of the city, and the owner of that house was Chu Ling, a well-known gentleman in Moling City.

As soon as Master Tao heard Chu Ling's name, he immediately gasped.

This Chu Ling is also the son of a wealthy merchant in the city, different from the Tao family's simple businessman's identity, the Chu family not only has a big business, but also has a pivotal position in the officialdom around Moling.

is rich and powerful, and he is born with a good skin, this great prince of Chu will naturally not waste such good conditions, and naturally he has become the leading gentleman in Moling City.

Since it is a gentleman, it is naturally a group of evil servants around him, rampant in the township, bullying men and women, and it is even more indispensable, I heard that the eldest daughter and little daughter-in-law who have been spoiled by him in recent years have not a hundred but seventy or eighty.

After Master Tao learned about this, he was immediately anxious.

Although her daughter has a lot of confrontation with herself on weekdays, after all, she has been studying since she was a child, and she still knows some etiquette, righteousness and shame, and she will not mix with the guy surnamed Chu if she says anything.

When the cronie heard Master Tao's words, he knew that he couldn't argue, so without saying a word, he took Master Tao to Chu Ling's house.

The master and servant stayed sneakily outside the house for a whole day, and finally at dusk, when Tao Xinzhu came out of it, the most unacceptable thing for Master Tao was that his baby daughter turned back step by step, looking reluctant.

The cronies looked at Master Tao's face, and they were so frightened that they didn't dare to say anything more.

This matter is already obvious, Tao Xinzhu is not only really mixed with that Chu Ling, but also obviously voluntary.

This time, Master Tao was really anxious, and when he got home, he ordered his subordinates to nail the doors and windows of Tao Xinzhu's room tightly, so that even a fly could not fly in.

And that Miss Tao, let her cry and shout in the house, smash cups and bowls, Master Tao turned a deaf ear, and was determined to let her and that Chu Ling cut off.

Tao Xinzhu was grounded by Master Tao, and Zhong Lixun naturally never met her on the street again.

According to Tai Meng's estimate, the day Zhong Lixun saw Tao Xinzhu for the first time, it was also on her way to Chu Ling's house, perhaps it was the shy expression of the girl Huaichun that made Zhong Liwu fall in love with her at first sight, and she couldn't extricate herself from it.

Since Master Tao locked up Tao Xinzhu, he immediately blocked the news, and the cronies he sent to inquire about the news were even stuffed by Master Tao with hundreds of taels of silver, and since then there has been no news in Moling City.

Tai Meng and Qian Zhuan also happened to meet a Taofu subordinate who had some friendship with the cronies, and found out the news that was difficult for outsiders to know.

So until today, Zhong Lixun didn't know anything about it, otherwise he wouldn't have been looking for traces of that Miss Tao all day long in Moling City.

Xiao Yu'er immediately heard the stakes, and finally understood why Liu He was so worried about this matter.

For many days, I ran into a person's house every day, and stayed all day. And that person is still a prodigal young master, I'm afraid that at this time, Tao Xinzhu is already difficult to keep his innocence.

Poor Zhongli Xun, who is infatuated, still walks the streets every day, hoping that one day, he can see his sweetheart again.

Now there are two choices in front of Liu He, one is to directly tell Zhong Lixun the truth and let him die for Tao Xinzhu. The second is to pretend not to know, and never mention this matter from then on.

However, both of these options have great drawbacks.

If he tells Zhong Lixun everything, judging from his unyielding performance these days, not only may he not be able to give up on Tao Xinzhu, but he may also act more radically.

If you don't say it, Zhong Lixun will be able to settle down for a while, not only to marry his sweetheart, but also to be held up as filial piety, this seems to be the lesser of two evils, but Tao Xinzhu has been pampered since he was a child, and his temper is tricky, so he naturally won't have a good face for Zhong Lixun, the son-in-law of Tao Mansion.

Maybe in her heart, ten Zhong Lixun can't compare to a suave young master Chu, even if she can endure it for a while, she may not be able to endure it for a lifetime, once she breaks the connection with Chu Ling and is discovered, then Zhong Lixun will only be hit harder than letting go now.

Liu He's difficulty lies in this.

As the saying goes, a long pain is better than a short pain, but for Zhong Lixun, no matter what kind of pain it is, it is not something he can bear now.

This night, not only Liu He, but also everyone in the Tianji Camp was a sleepless night.

For a person who meets in the water, he can also stay up all night, this seemingly absurd behavior is impossible for those soldiers who are accustomed to seeing swords and swords, but I don't know when it started, it seems to have become a normal thing again.

With the first rays of sunlight in the morning, Liu He pushed open the door.

Looking at the brothers with red and swollen eyes in the lobby downstairs, Liu He smiled slightly apologetically, and there seemed to be a little relief in this smile.

He went back to the room to get a piece of clothing, then walked downstairs and gently draped it over Chen Mo, who was already asleep on the table.

"This kid, he doesn't care about anything, he can sleep anywhere." Wei Xiao scolded as he stepped forward to put on the clothes that had almost slipped off Chen Mo's shoulders again.

Liu He looked around and said softly: "You all go to sleep, I'll just go to Zhao's house by myself." ”

Seeing that everyone refused to move a step, Liu He smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine." Zhongli Xun's matter, when I come back from the Zhao family, maybe there will be a solution that has the best of both worlds. ”

After that, Liu He left the inn alone and headed in the direction of the Zhao family.

Looking at Liu He's back, Tai Meng said to Qian Zhuan beside him: "I said old money, it seems that we are a false alarm this time, looking at the appearance of the head, it seems that there is really no big deal." ”

Qian Zhuan nodded, looking at Liu He's gaze, but there was still a little worried look.

Qin Shuang said faintly on the side: "The more he laughs and says it's okay, the more he has something in his heart." ”

When everyone heard this, there was silence again, since the beginning of the Tianji Camp, Qin Shuang has been in the same room with Liu He, and Qin Shuang, as a roommate, naturally has the most say in Liu He's temper.

It's just that Qin Shuang doesn't need to say anything about this matter, and other people also know that this Mr. Tianji has always been a good news and not a bad one.

Wei Xiao picked up his coat and strode to the door, "You go to rest first, I'll follow and see, if there's anything, I'll inform you again." ”
