Min Si's eyes turned red again for a while, and Chu Jiao's attitude was very shaken when she looked at her, but she still looked a little scared.

What is she afraid of?

At Qin Shao's strong request, Min Si got into the carriage back.

On the first day of her return, Min Si looked at everything in the house and felt a lot of emotion in her heart, but she still quietly wiped her tears and didn't let others see it.

Chu Jiao got the news that Chu Zhennan's condition had been controlled, and now the food was a little worse, and it could be regarded as protecting his life.

Just as everything was walking according to Chu Jiao's train of thought, a fork suddenly came out of the border pass.

The tribes led by the Turks launched an attack on Chenguo, and the route they took was the route of the defense map that Ruyan had stolen before.

I have to say that Li Chao's methods are clever, using the Turks as the vanguard, so that he does not have to lose troops, but secretly he is giving the Turks food and grass support.

This time the war was not like a small fight, the Turks were menacing, and the defense plan was wrong, but the Turks became more and more courageous, and they were not afraid at all, and they occupied three cities in just five days, which was something that had never happened before.

Qin Shao was urgently summoned into the palace, and the next day he wore a military uniform and went to the battlefield.

"Go this time, be careful, your life is at stake, you must know that I am here waiting for you to come back." Chu Jiao helped him straighten out his collar and said.

Qin Shao gently dropped a kiss on her forehead, and his eyes were full of tenderness: "Okay." ”

He turned and stepped on his horse, his black armor shining in the light, his face grim, his horse whipped, and he walked away.

Chu Jiao was worried in her heart, but she also knew Qin Shao's strength and didn't worry too much about him, but when she saw Min Si crying quietly in the corner, she soothed and said, "Don't worry too much, he is sure of himself." ”

Min Si looked up at her with tears in his eyes, with emotions that Chu Jiao couldn't read.

"Thinking too much will make you sad, isn't there something unspeakable?" Chu Jiao asked.

"No, the slave is happy, he can live such a good life, and get such an honor from the emperor, the slave is happy." Min Si kept repeating, but the tears on his face became more and more.

"Okay, then you can get some rest." As soon as Chu Jiao finished speaking, Xiuying came back.

"Oh no, when I went to the village today, I found that General Ming's family had been killed, and even... Even the child did not survive. ”

Chu Jiao was shocked when she knew about this: "Who did it?" ”

"I don't know yet, it's under investigation." Xiuying said.

The child also handed her something, but she didn't expect that in the past two days, she was killed, and it was the whole family, which made people shudder.

Chu Jiao, with a wave of his hand, went down, and she fell into deep thought.

What kind of person can kill the old general's family?

As soon as they walked on the front foot, someone on the back foot went to extinguish the mouth, and so on.

I'm afraid I'm worried about what the old general said that shouldn't be said.

But the old general didn't say anything after all, and was still killed.

Chu Jiao had always suspected that this person was a saint, but there was no evidence.

Now that Qin Shao has gone to the front line, she can be said to be missing a helper, and it will inevitably be more troublesome to investigate things.

Miss Wan got along very well with Chu Jiao at this time, and she knew the discomfort in Chu Jiao's heart.

"Don't worry, things will definitely be investigated, I think, that Min Si is a little not simple, don't you think it's strange? According to what you said, General Qing should be a good general, he is dead, why are the minions under his hands hiding like this, not daring to see people, as if they are hiding something. ”

Miss Wan said calmly.

Chu Jiao only thought that Miss Wan was naïve before, and she didn't want an accident, could she make people so mature?

"Well, you're right, this Min Si has too many secrets, I'm afraid I have to start with her." Chu Jiao said.

After Miss Wan listened, she whispered a few words in Chu Jiao's ear, and Chu Jiao's face changed slightly.

After Chu Jiao walked out, she thought about what Miss Wan said just now and went to Min Si's side.

Seeing that Min Si was wiping her tears again, she smiled and said, "Why is it because of happiness?" ”

"No, the slave is just worried, worried about his safety, and makes you laugh."

Chu Jiao tried to say a lot of heartfelt words, but Min Si's attitude was always a plain smile and did not make any expressions.

She can only come out, Miss Wan means to have a heart-to-heart relationship with her, so that she can get her words out, otherwise, I'm afraid that a character like Min Si won't say anything.

I didn't expect that in the end, the result was still the same.

At this time, the saint suddenly summoned her to the palace.

"At this time, I summoned you into the palace, do you know why?"

Chu Jiao knelt on the ground in a proper manner, the saint was not angry about what happened last time, but now he is still talking to her with a pleasant face, which is really rare.

"Please make it clear to the saints."

"Do you feel wronged about your father?" The sage asked.

Chu Jiao's hand hidden under the wide cuffs suddenly clenched tightly: "Don't dare." ”

Those who know the times are Junjie.

Half an hour later, Chu Jiao walked out of the imperial study.

When she came out of it, the expression on her face was unusually heavy.

The saint made it very clear that if she continued to investigate her father's affairs, the saint would take action, which meant that if she investigated, her father's life would be in danger.

Judging from the sage's reaction, she could basically be sure that General Ming's family was the sage's hand.

What the saint even hides even if he kills is something that will never be shown in front of people again.

But if you can't investigate the truth of the matter, what about your father, and what will happen to the Chu family in the future, will you have to bear the charge of collaborating with the enemy for the rest of your life?

No.

Chu Jiao was distracted, and many women came over, she didn't care, but she saw that the woman deliberately bumped over, and then the two of them bumped into each other.

"Oops, you don't have long eyes when you walk!" The woman screamed.

Chu Jiao frowned, but did not speak.

"What do you see? Say what about you! Zhou Ru said.

Zhou Ru, the noble daughter of the Zhou family, her father held an important position in the court and belonged to Luo Wenzhou's party.

"You bumped into it yourself, there are no rules, what do you say I did?" Chu Jiao said.

Zhou Ru sneered: "Yo, your temper is quite horizontal, who gave you the courage?" Is that your father dying of illness in the prison? ”

Chu Jiao's face was not good, but she didn't dodge her.

"I'm the daughter of the prime minister and the concubine of King Qin, so I don't have to salute when I see me?" She said coldly.

Several of the women around were not high in the family, so they didn't dare to provoke people easily, and they just followed Zhou Ruhu to fake the tiger, so they saluted one after another.

"She is the daughter of a criminal minister, how can she be worthy of my salute?" Zhou Ru said rampantly.

Chu Jiao had never known this young lady of the Zhou family before, and she didn't know where she came from.

"Those who are clear are self-purifying." After speaking, Chu Jiao walked forward.

A mocking voice came from behind him.

"Come on, sisters, do you know, I heard that as soon as she left the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion that day, she was splashed with dirty water all over her body.

Her words were sarcastic and harsh to hear.

Chu Jiao stopped, turned around and walked back, and directly pushed her into the pool next to her.

Everyone didn't react, and then, Chu Jiao had a cold face and jumped into the pool directly.

Chu Jiao knew how to water, she dived down to Zhou Ru, and then dragged her underneath, not letting her go up, she kept shouting for help, but she was quickly dragged down.

After choking on several mouthfuls of water, she didn't dare to shout for help, she was afraid of choking to death.

However, she was thrashing vigorously under the water, trying to get rid of Chu Jiao's control.

Chu Jiao saw that she was almost at the limit, so she let her go up to catch her breath, and then continued to drag it down.

After tossing and turning a few times, she quietly withdrew.

The palace maids and eunuchs who passed by hurriedly rescued people after hearing the sound, Zhou Ru was rescued in the middle of the pool, and Chu Jiao was rescued on the edge of the pool.

Zhou Ru slowed down for a long time and didn't react, and the whole person was like a fool, and spit out a lot of water.

When Mama Wang, who was next to the Queen Mother, heard about it, she hurriedly came over to see the situation.

After she relieved herself, she grabbed Mama Wang's clothes, and her two eyes were about to pop out: "It's her!" She's going to kill me! ”

Mama Wang looked at Chu Jiao, who was pale not far away.

"The slave and maid can't be the master of this matter, and I have to ask the queen mother." Mama Wang glanced at Chu Jiao meaningfully.

The crowd knelt on the ground and lined up one after another.

Zhou Ru is very fierce, not only because of her father, but also because she has a certain relationship with the queen mother's family, so her attitude is very rampant.

"It's all her! She wanted to kill me! She pushed me into the pool first, and she had been dragging me under the water, causing me to choke on the water, and I almost died. Zhou Ru was so angry that she was about to jump.

"The mourning family doesn't look like you're okay at all." The Queen Mother said calmly.

Looking back at Chu Jiao, she knelt on the ground quietly, the water droplets in her hair fell to the ground little by little, her face was pale, and there were tears in her eyes, but she didn't say a word.

"You said she pushed you into the pool, why?" The Queen Mother asked.

Zhou Ru wilted all of a sudden, but she still said stiffly: "It's her, she is disrespectful to me!" ”

The Queen Mother looked at Chu Jiao and said softly, "You come on." ”

"She said that I hit her, and when I saw me, I didn't say hello, and insulted the father and husband of the daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-law couldn't bear it, and said a few words to her, and she pushed the daughter-in-law into the pool in anger, and she left, not wanting to go halfway, she fell down herself, and fell into the pool."

Saying that, Chu Jiao sneezed, looking soft and weak.
