Mrs. Lin looked gentle and amiable, but what she thought in her heart, Qiu Jue didn't know.

After thirty years, she asked.

"Look at the girl doesn't look like a local, how can she be sold to the embankment?"

Apparently she knew who was working on the levee.

With such a clear temptation, Qiu Jue naturally thought of a response a long time ago.

"Don't hide it from Mrs. Say, we are indeed not Huai'an people, we came from the north to look for relatives, but I didn't expect to meet water bandits, my guards and housekeepers and maids were lost, and my brother and I were caught there by mistake."

After saying that, Qiu Jue shook his head and sighed, looking very ashamed.

"I don't know if the relatives the girl is looking for can be in Huai'an?"

Mrs. Lin didn't delve into it, smiled, and then said, "If you are here, let Steward Lin help you find it, it should be quick." ”

At this point, Qiu Jue also understood that this Mrs. Lin didn't want her to stay in Mofu.

It's not like there's some secret here.

It's just that if you don't want them to stay here, why do you want to save them?

"I won't bother your wife, when my brother wakes up, we will take our leave, thank you for Mrs. Lin's hospitality and life-saving grace, and if you need it in the future, you should repay yourself."

Mrs. Lin shook her head and said, "I don't have anything to ask for." Then he said no more.

When Qiu Jue returned to the room, Moshi had already woken up.

"Where have you been?" He looked a little ugly, and he was confronting a girl.

Obviously, the girl next to her, who was smiling sweetly, had already told Moshi what had happened.

But he stopped him with a smile and didn't let him get out of bed.

The name is beautiful: the injured person should lie down and not cause trouble for others.

Seeing Qiu Jue returning, this maid was blessed and withdrew.

"I'm going to thank them for saving their lives."

Moshi's body was diagnosed and treated by the doctor and was fine, and the two of them took Xiaocao and went out of Mofu.

was going to look for Bai Yu and Taifu, but what she didn't expect was that they saw acquaintances as soon as they came out.

Qiu Chan!

"Girl, why are you here?"

Qiu Chan was also surprised and hurriedly caught up and helped Qiu Jue down the steps.

"It's hard to put into words, where's little Pink?" Qiu Jue shook his head, signaling that this was not the place to speak.

Qiu Chan and Xiao Taohong came to Huai'an, and they didn't hear the news of the little emperor, so they stayed here.

They rented a small courtyard here, and by the time Qiu Jue and the others arrived, the courtyard was already full of people.

The first thing that caught his eye was Master Taifu, his eyes lit up excitedly, and he strode up to meet him.

When he walked to the front, he lifted his robe and knelt down directly.

"The old minister sees the emperor and meets the queen mother."

General Li followed suit and bowed down, as did Bai Yu.

Although their voices were not loud, they still alarmed Little Peach, who was recuperating in the house.

"Mother, you're back." As he spoke, he ran towards Qiu Jue.

The injury on her leg was not yet healed, and she limped when she ran.

"Where have you been, Bai Gongzi said, it should have arrived the day before yesterday, but we searched around the city for a few times and didn't find it."

Compared with Xiao Pink, Qiu Chan's performance is indeed better, and she was just stunned when she saw Qiu Jue.

"Everybody, get up, don't be so polite outside."

Mo Shi stood behind Qiu Jue, watching her speak, without saying a word.

When the people entered, they sat down in dignity.

"Queen Mother, where have you been in the past two days?" Taifu was so anxious that since he learned that the little emperor was injured, he couldn't sleep at night, and he didn't know what to eat, so he wanted to find them quickly.

But after looking for two days, they didn't see anyone, and just when they were going to directly use the power of the government to find someone, Qiu Chan brought people back.

"Hey, who are you?"

General Li was stunned, and suddenly looked at Xiao Cao, who had been standing at the door, and the others seemed to have just discovered her, and for a while everyone's eyes were focused on Xiao Cao's body.

Frightened, the little girl pounced and knelt down directly.

touched the ground with his head, but he couldn't speak.

"General Li, don't scare her, Xiaocao."

Qiu Jue beckoned to Xiaocao, but Xiaocao was already so shocked by the identities of the two that she didn't know what to do, her legs were weak, if it weren't for General Li's sudden voice, everyone looked at her, she wouldn't know how to kneel.

"I, I ......"

"What me? In front of the mother, you must call yourself a slave. Little Peach glared at her and corrected her with some dissatisfaction.

"It's a slave, slave maid......" Xiaocao lay there and didn't dare to raise her head, but only followed but forgot what she was going to say next.

Qiu Jue sighed when she saw this, but she was also the daughter of an ordinary people's family, where had she seen many officials, let alone the emperor and queen mother of a dynasty.

She wasn't scared and fainted, she was already in good shape.

"Little Peach, you take Xiaocao down to rest for a while."

After Qiu Jue gave the order, only a few of them were left here.

"Let's not talk about anything else, Taifu and General Li came earlier than us, have you noticed?"

The two of you, you and I are talking about the current situation of Huai'an City.

Speaking of which, according to the 800-mile urgent official document reported to the imperial court, the disaster in Huai'an was very serious, but what they saw after entering the city was not like this.

The people live and work in peace and contentment, and the businesses are also operating normally, where does this 800-mile rush come from?

However, Bai Yu understood more thoroughly, saying that someone in the local area secretly took the silver and settled those people.

But who the person behind it really is unknown.

"There is one more thing, the urgent official document was issued to Zhizhou and he died violently in the government office the day before yesterday." General Li frowned, originally he wanted to find out from this person.

It's just that before he can take action, the other party dies.

"What is the cause of death?" Qiu Jue was surprised, this person died at a really bad time.

"According to the lady of the house, it is overwork."

Hearing such an answer, Qiu Jue was a little speechless.

"In Huai'an City today, the people live and work in peace and contentment, what else will make him overwork to death?"

It's just ridiculous.

It does sound ridiculous, but General Li and the others have been secretly visiting for a few days, but they still don't have any clue.

Suddenly, there was a sound of gongs and drums outside, and it was so lively that I heard the sound of footsteps in the yard next to me, and they were all running out.

"I'm going to take a look." General Lee was the first to ask for help, and after getting approval, he ran out.

After a while, he came back, and his face was a little weird.

The crowd asked him what had happened.

"King Huainan is here, and everyone is greeting him." But in my heart, I slandered, does the king of the five states have such a good reputation?

King Huainan? Qiu Jue sneered in his heart.

King Huainan is the cousin of Mo Lingxiao, the emperor of Mo.

He is also his only living brother.

He was in charge of the five continents and was crowned king.

I only have one big hobby in my life, not greedy or gambling, but only love beauty.

It is said that there are hundreds of beauties in his harem, more than in the emperor's harem.

But there are only three children.

And how could Qiu Jue, a lady in a deep house, know this?

The reason is very simple, Qiu Chan is the youngest daughter of King Huainan.

Everyone else was thinking about the intention of King Huainan to come this time, only Qiu Chan stood there alone, motionless, her fists naturally drooped down, and they were clenched tightly.

If you don't look closely, you can't see her thoughts.

Qiu Jue reached out and attached it to the back of her hand and patted it gently.

Qiu Jue instructed them to go down first, leaving someone to observe the purpose of King Huainan's trip, and it was not easy for them to show up at this moment.

When only she and Qiu Chan were left in the room, Qiu Jue said lightly.

"If you don't want to see him, stay here in the future, and when we finish our business, we will go back to Beijing together."

Although their trip was an unannounced visit, how could they say that Qiu Jue still had to show up in the end.

Qiu Chan's gaze changed and changed, and her expression was very entangled.

"Niangniang doesn't have to think about me, even if I appear in front of him at this moment, he won't recognize me as his daughter."

Qiu Cicada was very weak, and she was somewhat self-deprecating and gritting her teeth when she said this.

It stands to reason that although the king of Huainan has many wives and concubines, he has very few children, and he should know them all, but the funny thing is that this old boy has been managing the five states all day long, and he is soaking in the pile of beauties, and he ignores his sons and daughters.

Qiu Jue just heard his grandfather mention Qiu Chan's identity, but he didn't know the specifics, he didn't expect this Huainan King to be a bastard to such a point.

"Tell me if there's anything you need." Qiu Jue didn't say any more, patted her shoulder and got up to leave.

In the courtyard, Moshi sat at the stone table, while Little Peach and Little Grass stood beside them with low eyebrows, and there were some red fruits and some snacks on the plate of the stone table.

These two girls were waiting for him.

"Mother."

Little Peach saw that it was her and looked over happily.

Xiaocao is very well-behaved, and she also follows Xiao Taohong to greet her.

But there was confusion and curiosity in those eyes.

"Go down first."

Qiu Jue originally planned to talk to Xiao Taohong more, this girl is also lively, Qiu Jue likes to talk to her.

But when she saw Moshi's somewhat strange face, she had to send the two girls.

"What's wrong? Who you off? ”

Qiu Jue sat down opposite the ink stone, reached out and pinched the fruit on the plate, threw it into his mouth, and took a bite of the juice, which was fragrant, sweet but not greasy, and very crisp.

Qiu Jue sighed in her heart, in fact, being the queen mother also has a good side of being the queen mother.

At least she doesn't have to cook the meal, and there are free desserts and fruits to eat.

Moshi originally saw Qiu Jue coming over and deliberately pouted, but at this moment, seeing that she only asked herself, she kept eating the fruit on the plate in front of her, as if that thing was the thing that attracted her the most.

Even the little emperor of the dignified Celestial Empire was left aside.

"Why is Bai Yu still here?"

So the little emperor had no choice but to bring back Qiu Jue's mind by himself.

"Ah, he's not here, where is he?"

Bai Yu is a student of Taifu, so he will naturally follow Taifu.

Who would have thought that Mo Shi saw Qiu Jue's indifferent attitude, and suddenly reached out and knocked the jade plate on the table directly to the ground.

The jade plate dingdong collided with the bluestone ground, shattered into several petals, and those red fruits also rolled to the ground.

Stained with some dirt, it doesn't look so fragrant and intoxicating anymore.

"He likes to go wherever he wants, and I don't like him dangling in front of me."
