"Didn't you say you only check men? Do women also need to be checked? Chu Yue'an asked with a slight smile.

"Are you women? What do you do in men's clothing? The official officer looked at Chu Yue'an and Caixing, who looked like a woman with fine skin and tender flesh and clear eyebrows.

"Walking the rivers and lakes, men's clothing is more convenient." Chu Yue'an smiled faintly, "Do you still want to check?" ”

She laughed, the official's head was dizzy, and hurriedly said, "No, no!" Was there anyone else in the carriage? ”

"No, if you don't believe me, you can get in the car and check it out."

The official opened the curtain of the car, and after making sure that there were no other people in the car, he waved his hand and said, "There is no suspicion, let them out of the city." ”

The three of them got into the carriage together and went out of the city.

Seeing this, Yuwen Jinghuai, who was not far away, smiled lightly: "Come to think of it, we are too worried, and she has her own way to go out of the city." You send two people to secretly protect them back to Beijing. ”

Holding his fists with the wind, he said, "Yes." ”

Chu Yue'an and the others walked relatively slowly back to Beijing, and by the time they arrived in the capital, it was already late August.

Shangguan Yan personally sent Chu Yue'an to the door of Ninghou Mansion, called Chu Yueyun's hand, and said with a smile: "It's back to Zhao." ”

"Brother Yan, we haven't seen each other for a long time, let's sit down together, let's chat." Chu Yueyun smiled lightly.

"No, let's do it another day." Shangguan Yan smiled lightly, "I have to go back to see my grandfather, he must be worried about going out for so long." ”

"Okay." Chu Yueyun waved his hand, "Then we'll see you another day." ”

After entering the Hou Mansion, Chu Yueyun took Chu Yuean's arm and asked, "Second sister, is this journey going smoothly?" ”

"Naturally, it went well." Chu Yue'an said, "Is everything okay at home?" Is everything okay during the Mid-Autumn Festival? ”

"Second sister doesn't know yet, my mother gave birth to a younger brother for me, who was born on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival." Chu Yueyun said with a smile, "You go and take a look, with a pink dumpling, your eyes are big, you will definitely like it." ”

"Cheng, I'll go back and clean up a little and then go visit our little brother." Chu Yuean smiled lightly, "I've been in the dust all the way, the child has just been born, I'll freshen up first." ”

"Okay, then I'll go and tell my mother first, she will be very happy when you come back."

Chu Yue'an returned to Tianhe Courtyard first, and everyone warmly welcomed her back.

Xiao Huai brought the brewed tea: "It's been almost a month since Miss came out, and I thought you forgot that we weren't going to come back!" ”

Chu Yue'an smiled: "You are so sensible and so cute, how can I forget you." ”

smiled and said a few words to the maid in the courtyard about what he had seen and heard outside, and then washed up, and went to greet the old lady first.

"My granddaughter hasn't been with her grandmother for many days, but her grandmother's body is okay?" Chu Yuean lowered his eyes and asked.

"It's good." The old lady's spirit became worse and worse, and her body was also emaciated, "It's good to come back safely, nothing happened on the way, right?" ”

"All is well."

"That's good." The old lady nodded, "Aunt Xiang gave birth to Lao Jiu, go and take a look, they have always been thinking about you." ”

"Yes." Chu Yue'an lowered her eyes, "The granddaughter retired first, grandmother's spirit is not very good, you should pay attention to rest." ”

Out of Chunjing Garden, Lu Youming chased after him: "Second cousin! ”

Chu Yue settled down, looked back and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Second cousin, don't say goodbye these days, it's not peaceful outside, I've been worried about you, it's great that you can come back safely." Lu Youming said with a smile.

"Thank you for your concern, although I have been out for a long time, I haven't gone far in the end, everything is fine."

Lu Youming looked a little worried, and said, "Second cousin, you are proficient in art, you should see that your grandmother's health is not very good." ”

"Really? Have you asked a doctor to take a look? Chu Yue'an asked.

"Grandma has been sleeping longer and longer in recent days, but after waking up, her spirit is still very sluggish, and she has no appetite after eating.

"Since the imperial doctor can't see it, what can you see if I have it?" Chu Yue'an said helplessly, "What kind of miracle doctor, it's just that people outside see that I'm a woman and brag about it, but if my grandmother's health is really bad, let me go and see me again, otherwise it seems like I'm looking forward to my grandmother's illness." By the way, I've also brought some local specialties with me this time, and I'll bring them to you later. ”

"Thank you, second cousin."

After Chu Yue'an left, Lu Youming came to Mama Qin's side disappointed.

Mama Qin asked, "What did the second miss say?" ”

Lu Youming shook his head.

Mama Qin also shook her head helplessly: "The second lady and the old lady can't bear each other, the old lady knows that the second lady has superb medical skills, but she doesn't let the second lady treat her." The second lady saw that the old lady was uncomfortable, and if the old lady didn't speak, she would definitely not take the initiative. ”

"So what now?" Lu Youming frowned and asked, "Grandma won't have an accident, right?" ”

If something happens to her grandmother, she will not be able to stay in the Hou Mansion for fear that she will not be able to stay any longer, and the marriage with the Hou Mansion of Zhongyi will also be delayed.

Chu Yue'an came to the courtyard of Xiangxi again, Aunt Xiang was still very weak because she had just given birth, but her face was full of happy smiles, and her body was shrouded in the brilliance of motherhood.

"Mother, look, who's coming?" Chu Yueyun opened the curtain and asked with a smile.

Aunt Xiang raised her eyes and saw that Chu Yue'an was back, with a smile between her eyebrows: "Second Miss is back, is this journey safe?" ”

"It's good." Chu Yue'an smiled slightly, "When you gave birth, I was very sorry that you were not by your side." ”

"Second Miss, don't say that." Aunt Xiang hurriedly said, "You have already helped our mother and son a lot. ”

Chu Yueyun hugged the newborn Xiao Jiu in front of Chu Yue'an, and said with a smile: "You hug." ”

Chu Yue'an took the baby in swaddling clothes, and it was the first time she held the newborn child, and her whole body was stiff: "It's so soft, I won't break him." ”

"Children are not so delicate." Chu Yueyun smiled, "Look at him smiling at you, he likes you." ”

Chu Yue'an looked at the child in his arms, a small lump of flesh, his eyes were big, his eyes were full of curiosity, revealing a sense of cleverness, and there were fluffy fine hairs on his face, which was very cute.

She sat down beside Aunt Xiang with the child in her arms, checked Aunt Xiang's pulse, and said, "Your body is recovering well, and I will give you some medicine to regulate confinement, and there will be no sequelae." ”

Aunt Xiang teased Xiao Jiu and said: "God treats me well, I think I didn't have the ability to protect the eighth child at the beginning, the child was less than two years old when he didn't have it, even if I fight for my life now, I can protect this child and let him grow up safely." Second Miss, if there is no you, I am afraid that there is no such child, you are his great benefactor. ”

Chu Yue'an smiled slightly: "It's all fate." ”

In the following days, Chu Yue'an often went to Xiangxi Courtyard to tease the newborn Xiao Jiu, and his life was peaceful. It is said that there are corrupt officials who embezzled the grain money for disaster relief, and were killed by Yuwen Jinghuai and Shangguan Xun, and their thunderous methods made the local officials have to be cautious about disaster relief. The corrupt officials were killed, the people rejoiced, and after the people's hearts stabilized, they all actively participated in the disaster relief, which was much smoother than expected.

Time came to September in a flash, the autumn wind gusted, the chrysanthemums in the yard bloomed, Yuwen Jinghuai also took the lead in returning to Beijing, and Shangguan Xun remained in the disaster area to deal with the aftermath.

That night, when Chu Yue'an was sleeping, she noticed that someone had entered, and she was already surprised, so she got up and rubbed her eyes.

Ling Huan sat on the edge of the bed and asked, "I heard that Sun Liangpeng was assassinated in Qinghe County, but did you do it?" ”

"yes." Chu Yue'an simply admitted, "I've been back for so long, since you have doubts in your heart, why are you only asking me now?" ”

"I've had something to do these days, and I've only recently come back." Ling Huan smiled lightly, "It is said that you are still injured?" ”

"Don't mention it." Chu Yuean sat cross-legged on the bed and complained, "It's all Yuwen Jinghuai's nosy, if it weren't for him, I'm afraid that Sun Liangpeng would have been killed a long time ago." ”

"But......" Chu Yue'an frowned and continued, "I have calmed down these days, and I realized that Yuwen Jinghuai's martial arts are very high, it shouldn't be under me, he is really hidden." ”

"Really?" Ling Huan replied softly, "Then you don't plan to forgive him?" ”

"It's not about forgiveness or forgiveness, we just have different positions, stand on our own positions and do what we think is right, no one is sorry for anyone, but since our positions are different, I will no longer be friends with him in the future, maybe it is still a life-and-death relationship." Chu Yue'an said lightly, "But that's right, the other party is his cousin, they are blood relatives, the king of Chu didn't betray me, I can be regarded as worthy of me, and there is absolutely no reason for him to help me." ”

Ling Huan sighed lightly: "Maybe he has a hard time?" ”

"It doesn't matter anymore." Chu Yuean pursed her lips and smiled, "I just want to kill Sun Liangpeng again, I don't know when there will be a good opportunity, I can only wait patiently now." ”

"Are your injuries healed?" Ling Huan was silent for a moment and then asked.

"It's been around for a long time." Chu Yue'an smiled slightly, "It's just a sword, not a serious injury." ”

"Yue'an." Ling Huan paused and said, "Is it okay to hand over your revenge to me, I promised you that you would kill Sun Liangpeng, you don't take risks, if you are injured, I will be distressed." ”
