Li Ying shook his head and said: "Although the old ancestor has the intention to help the girl, since the old ancestor moved to live in a private house in the outer city, he has rarely interfered in the affairs of the palace. ”

Chu Junlan understood that Cao Qin was preparing to gradually fade out of this circle.

But I also know that Cao Qin will not completely quit, and when he reaches his status, if he completely withdraws from the center of power, he is afraid that he will bring death to himself, and the so-called fading out is just that he doesn't want to meddle in other people's affairs.

Knowing that her eldest brother was safe, Chu Junlan felt a lot more relieved, she didn't know how Xiao Xu did it, but in such a short period of time, Xiao Xu was able to use his connections to find out about Chu Huating's situation, and entrusted Li Ying to convey it on his behalf, which was very rare.

Thinking of the cherished light kiss that fell on her eyes when Xiao Xu left, Chu Junlan's heart was full of sweetness again. She didn't have to guess what he meant to her, because his actions were already everything.

Originally, they were just cooperative, and she still thought that after helping him achieve his goal, she could have a backer, and wouldn't it be comfortable for the sky to fly when the time came? But now, things seem to be out of her control.

Chu Junlan was eating tea on the side, sitting in the brightly lit place under the corridor and talking to the people of Jinyiwei in a low voice, which really made the rest of the Chu family jealous.

But Lao Taijun and the others did not dare to make a mistake at this time, but gave birth to a little hope in their hearts.

The old lady lowered her voice and said, "You say, Jin Yiwei's polite attitude towards Sister Lan, does it mean that we are all fine?" ”

Chu Caijun shook his head: "Mother, don't forget, she is the future princess of King Gongding, what are we?" If she was beheaded, maybe she would be able to dodge it, but we can't. ”

When the old lady heard this, her heart was half cold, and she shook her head and sighed again and again: "I shouldn't have come, I thought that Cailiang would have a good life here, and I would take you to enjoy Qingfu together, but I didn't expect that I would have to give my life here!" ”

"I said I shouldn't have come, but you didn't listen." Zhou covered his face and cried again.

The atmosphere in the courtyard was tense and solemn, and when the sky gradually turned white, there was finally movement at the gate.

Chu Cailiang was brought back by the guards, and the attendant who came with him carried a door panel, and one of them was covered with a brocade quilt, sleeping peacefully, who was not Chu Huating?

Chu Junlan hurriedly got up and rushed over, watching the palace people put the door panel on the ground, and carefully went to check Chu Huating's pulse.

Fortunately, it is safe......

Chu Junlan let out a sigh of relief.

The Chu family looked at Chu Cailiang and the palace people who led the way nervously at this time, no one dared to stand up, let alone ask questions.

The inner eunuch led by Pi said with a smile: "Master Chu, although you have been dismissed from your official position, you don't have any complaints in your heart, your family's chief housekeeper conspired with the concubine to assassinate you, and the emperor didn't want the lives of your entire clan, it was entirely for the sake of the eldest prince of Chu." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, the emperor will open the net, the minister ...... Grass people, where dare grass people complain. ”

"That's good." The inner supervisor looked at Chu Huating, who was lying in a coma on the door panel, and said with emotion: "If you want our family to say, Master Chu, you were born in happiness and don't know how to be blessed, and you have such a good son who doesn't know how to treat him well, and he can do things that don't distinguish between his concubines and concubines, and he is so mediocre, no wonder the emperor is so angry." If it weren't for the eldest prince of Chu who stepped forward this time and saved the holy driver, what should your Chu family do at this time? ”

"Yes, my father-in-law taught me."

"Even the emperor praised the talent of 'loyal and brave people', if you can't be treated well here, then you can't stand the emperor's hard work."

The inner supervisor shook his head and sighed, "That's it, it's our family's mouth." Seeing that the emperor was angry, he couldn't help but nag a few more words. Master Chu will be a farmer in the future, but can he still count on his son? The emperor didn't say that the children of your family were not allowed to participate in the imperial court again, so you just burn high incense! ”

"Yes, yes, definitely, definitely."

Seeing that Chu Cailiang only nodded like a sound worm, the inner eunuch felt bored, shook his head, and turned around and signaled to the Praetorian Guards and Jinyi Guard: "The emperor ordered you to go back." ”

"Yes." The two groups of people immediately responded and went to the door of the Chu family in an orderly manner.

The inner supervisor looked around again, watching the Chu family squatting in the front yard and looking at his whole family master and servant, and took out a bright yellow scroll from his sleeve.

"The emperor has a decree."

Everyone was shocked and knelt on the ground to receive the order.

The inner supervisor raised his voice, and his voice was hoarse and sharp: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: The criminal minister Chu Cailiang is mediocre and incompetent, and he will be removed from all official positions and will never be hired, so he will be honored!" ”

Although Chu Cailiang knew it for a long time, he still shook his body and forcibly accepted the order: "Thank you, Lord Longen." ”

The inner prison unfolded another yellow scroll and read it out: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: Ma Yan is rebellious and sentenced to Ling Chi, Wang Yuqing and Ma Yan are unforgivable, and they are sentenced to beheading, and the two will be executed at noon today." Ma Yan's wife Liu, Ma Yan's son Ma Xuewen, was exiled to northern Xinjiang and could not return to Beijing without an edict. Wang Yuqing's son Chu Huazhang and female Chu Mengying were changed to slaves and handed over to the teaching workshop for sale! Chin this! ”

Chu Mengying and Chu Huazhang couldn't have imagined that they would be like this, they collapsed to the ground in disbelief and were forcibly pulled out by the palace people.

"Daddy, Daddy!" Chu Huazhang cried for help.

But this is a holy decree, even if Chu Cailiang is reluctant, what can he do?

Ma Yan's wife, Liu, fainted on the spot, and Ma Xuewen also had a face as white as earth and fell to the ground. Until now, they can't figure it out, okay, why Ma Yan went to assassinate the emperor.

Chu Huazhang and Chu Mengying's shouts finally came true, the inner supervisor had some smiles, and then showed a yellow scroll: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: Huating, the eldest son of the Chu family, has meritorious service in saving the driver, is loyal and filial, and gives the 'loyal and brave man' plaque, rewards ten taels of gold, ten horses of silk, and specially allows him to resume the examination, and directly participate in the examination when the imperial court selects talents, Qin this!" ”

Chu Huating was still in a coma, and Chu Junlan immediately knelt down and saluted, "People's daughter Chu Junlan, acting brother to thank the emperor for his grace." ”

The inner eunuch handed over the holy decree to Chu Junlan with a smile, and changed his attitude before he treated Chu Cailiang with ridicule and indifference, and said kindly: "It turns out that you are Miss Chu, if you are really the sister of the 'loyal and brave man', Xiao is like a brother, and they are all pillars of the country." ”

Chu Junlan was flattered and said, "My father-in-law has won the award." The little woman is talentless, and she can't afford such praise. ”

"Where, where, Brother Ling is a 'loyal and brave man', and Miss Chu is a world-famous 'little doctor fairy'. Although Master Chu is a little mediocre, but a pair of children are excellent, I heard that Ling Tang was once a person next to Concubine Shu? ”

"Exactly that's right."

"If you don't say it, the concubine is graceful and elegant, and the people around her are all talents, so the children she teaches will naturally not be bad."
