Chu Wu and Xiao Jingmo went straight back to the palace after saying goodbye to Emperor Yongchang and Empress Zhaode, and everyone was in no mood to hold another dinner party after such a thing happened today.

So, tonight's family feast was canceled!

on the carriage.

Xiao Jingmo looked at Chu Wu's injured hand and said softly, "But it still hurts?" ”

When Chu Wu heard this, she was slightly stunned for a while before she said, "Ah... Oh! Not anymore! Thank you for your concern! ”

Xiao Jingmo frowned slightly, and said in a somewhat cold tone: "With such a good skill, how can you still hurt yourself?" ”

Xiao Jingmo didn't know where the anger in his heart came from at this time, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what he said!

When Chu Wu heard this, she was stunned.

frowned slightly, and said secretly in his heart: Is it strange to be injured? What's more, how can you not get hurt in a fight? And it's that kind of emergency!

Chu Wu couldn't understand what Xiao Jingmo meant!

He glanced at Xiao Jingmo a little strangely, and asked cautiously and softly, "Injured.... Weird, isn't it? ”

“.....”

When Xiao Jingmo heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

Only then did I realize what I was asking! There was some awkwardness on his face, and he felt a little aggrieved in his heart.

Xiao Jingmo opened his eyes lightly and didn't look at Chu Wu.

I secretly said in my heart: This stupid woman! Do you have to be so clear?

Chu Wu looked at Xiao Jingmo's somewhat awkward appearance with a strange expression.

.....

When the two returned to the palace, it was almost evening, Xiao Jingmo briefly explained a few words to Chu Wu, and then asked Steward Xiao to send Chu Wu back to his small courtyard.

He went to the study, and Xiao Yi followed closely with a blank face.

Cai Wei was very surprised to see that when Chu Wu came back, there was a Steward Xiao behind her!

I thought to myself: Aren't the princess and the prince having a family banquet at night? Why did you come back?

Cai Wei didn't expect her princess to come back so early!

Hurriedly put down the things in his hand and went to greet Chu Yu, when he saw off Steward Xiao and turned back.

When he suddenly caught a glimpse of the blood stains on Chu Wu's sleeve, he suddenly turned pale with fright.

His eyes were red, and he said anxiously: "Princess! You... You blood! What's wrong with your hand? ”

Cai Wei choked up, as if she was about to cry.

Chu Wu secretly sighed, and guessed that Cai Wei would be scared!

Comforting softly, "It's okay!" I only had a slight injury, and it was already bandaged! You don't have to worry, if I really have something, I won't be standing here talking to you properly! ”

When Cai Wei heard this, her eyes widened slightly, and she hurriedly whispered!

Hurriedly said: "Bah, bah! Princess, don't say such unlucky things! ”

Chu Wu smiled.

Cai Wei looked at Chu Wu with some distress, and wanted to reach out to touch Chu Wu's hand but didn't dare: "Then princess, are you still in pain?" How could it be hurt? ”

Chu Yu said gently: "I'll tell you about this later, let's go into the house!" ”

Cai Wei reacted at this time, and hurriedly went to help Chu Wan: "Look at the slave's brain!" Princess, you are in the house, but are you hungry? Slave maid to serve you something to eat? ”

Hearing this, Chu Wu thought about it for a while, and nodded "um".

I really didn't eat much in the palace, although the dishes and pastries at the banquet were exquisite and delicious.

However, the portions of the things at this kind of banquet are all delicate and small, and they are not meant to make you full!

What's more, she only tasted two or three bites of food at the banquet, and she didn't eat much, and now she is hungry!

Eleven had already seen Chu Ao's injured hand in the dark, and his heart couldn't help but tighten, and when he heard Chu Auntie say that it was okay, he was relieved!

After a while, Cai Wei served some food, and Chu Wu quickly filled her stomach and asked Cai Wei to withdraw.

Chu Wu omitted some of the process, and just briefly told Cai Wei about what happened in the palace.

Cai Wei looked worried when she heard this, until Chu Wan asked her to prepare the washing water, she was still frowning, not knowing what she was thinking!

......

In the Lu family, in a brightly lit study, a silver and gold incense burner carved with a one-legged white crane quietly emits curling white smoke.

A tall, rough-looking middle-aged man was standing at the desk, carefully wiping the sword in his hand.

The sword body is thick and long, the blade glows with a cold light under the light of the candlelight, and the sword body is also carved with fine dark lines, which can be seen clearly under the light.

This middle-aged man's movements are delicate and gentle, as if he were treating his lover with gentleness and meticulousness!

Suddenly, there were several knocks on the door in the quiet study.

The middle-aged man said without raising his head: "Come in!" ”

Outside the door, a young man dressed in lake blue brocade walked in, with a handsome face and a gentle and elegant smile on his face, looking like a gentle and polite son of a family. is diametrically opposed to the middle-aged man who wipes the sword body.

Lu Wenlang stepped forward and bowed to Lu Zhengyin, and said respectfully: "I've seen my father!" ”

Lu Zhengyin let out a faint "um".

The pair of somewhat gloomy eyes glanced at Lu Wenlang in front of him, and said; "Let's sit down first!"

Lu Wenlang said gently: "Thank you, father!" ”

With that, he sat down.

Lu Zhengyin closed the sword in his hand, with some pity in his eyes, and said lightly: "Today's incident is really a pity!" I'm afraid that the emperor will be vigilant because of this! ”

Lu Wenlang frowned slightly, and said softly: "Father, the child has been reminded before, you don't have to be in such a hurry!" If Xiao Jingmo knew that this matter was still related to the Qin State, I am afraid that Xiao Jingmo would use this as an excuse! ”

When Lu Zhengyin heard this, a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes, and he snorted coldly: "It's okay, they can't find evidence!" ”

Then Lu Zhengyin's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he had thought of something, and said in a deep voice: "That princess of Chu State, it seems that it is not simple, as you said!" ”

Lu Wenlang was slightly stunned when he heard this.

At the same time, my head was thinking about the Chu I saw in the hall today!

Because today's scene is too chaotic, and because of the situation at that time, I won't pay special attention to a woman!

Therefore, he actually didn't see the appearance of his wife very clearly.

But after a few glances, I couldn't help but have a strange feeling in my heart.

I always feel that this woman... It's a little different, although I'm injured, my face is too calm and flat!

This is not the reaction of the average woman! It's so weird! Unless.....

Thinking of this, Lu Wenlang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said softly: "Oh? How so? ”

Lu Zhengyin sat down, took a sip of the tea on the table, and briefly told Lu Wenlang about Chu Wenlang's performance in the hall today.

Lu Wenlang listened carefully, his eyes became darker and darker, and he said softly: "In this way, Xiao Jingmo really has an unknown secret when he marries this woman!" I just don't know, this princess of Chu .... In which move of King Xiao's chess piece? ”

Lu Wenlang said as he unconsciously tapped his fingers on the table.

Lu Zheng said gloomily: "Although this woman is articulate and a little scheming, she is just a woman after all!" It's okay for us. However, since it is a useful chess piece for King Xiao. Well, no matter what, she can't be allowed to continue to live! ”

Lu Zhengyin said so lightly, with a strong killing intent in his tone!

Lu Wenlang frowned and thought, not knowing what came to mind.

There was some uncertainty in his tone: "This princess of Chu State, could it be someone related to that thing?" Could it be that this is the person we are looking for? Between her eyebrows.... There seems to be a little cinnabar mole too! ”

When Lu Zhengyin heard this, he glanced at him strangely, and said with some disdain: "How is it possible, you forgot?" Mr. Lan is talking about a man with a little red cinnabar mole between his eyebrows and a red lotus birthmark on his chest! It's not uncommon for women to have cinnabar moles between their eyebrows, but we're looking for men! ”

Lu Zhengyin emphasized it in particular!

Lu Wenlang shook his head gently, and felt that he didn't know where to go!

Thinking about it like this, I quickly erased the strange thoughts in my heart!

frowned and said, "It's the child who wants to fork!" However, don't kill her yet, if you can, secretly arrest her and hand her over to Mr. Lan for interrogation! Let's see if there are any clues related to King Xiao! ”

When Lu Zhengyin heard this, he raised his eyes to look at Lu Wenlang, who was sitting at the bottom, and suddenly asked, "What about Mr. Lan?" ”

Lu Wenlang was still immersed in the thoughts just now, and he didn't react for a moment, he was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Oh, I'm going to see Gu Zuoxiang!" ”

When Lu Zhengyin heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, he thought about it slightly, and nodded, "Hmm! "Yes.

He said in a deep voice: "Then I will leave this matter to you!" ”

Lu Wenlang nodded lightly and said, "Yes!" Father! ”

......

Gu Jia, in a secret room in the middle of nowhere, a few candles were lit, and the orange candlelight flickered and jumped, reflecting two different figures on the wall.

A middle-aged man with a slightly chubby body, wearing a brown brocade robe, and a fair face, smiled gently.

The man in a black cloak on the opposite side gently removed the cloak covering his head, revealing a handsome man who looked to be only in his thirties.

"Mr. Lan is here today, but what's the matter?" Gu Zuoxiang smiled mildly and asked softly.

The person who was called Mr. Lan stretched out his hand to make an invitation and said softly: "Gu Zuoxiang sit down first!" ”

With that, he sat down on one of the chairs unceremoniously.

When Gu Zuoxiang heard this, he smiled slightly and sat down.

"I have come today for a certain reason!" Mr. Lan said softly.

Gu Zuoxiang's eyes flashed slightly, "But Grand Master Lu asked Mr. Lan to come?" ”

Mr. Lan smiled and said, "Yes and no!" ”

When Gu Zuoxiang heard this, he said softly: "Oh? ”

Mr. Lan reached out and took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, handed it to Gu Zuoxiang, and said with a smile: "Not long ago, it was calculated in the next place." The person we have been looking for should be in Xiao Guo! He has a red lotus-shaped birthmark on his chest! Very beautiful! And it should be a man! And the appearance is absolutely good! There is also a little red cinnabar mole between the eyebrows! This person is the key to the whole plan! General Lu and the eldest prince also hope that Gu Zuoxiang can pay attention to help find it! ”

When Gu Zuoxiang heard this, his eyes flashed slightly, he took the paper, opened it and looked at it.

A beautiful lotus flower was drawn on the paper, and two lines of words were written next to it, and the rest was gone! There are no portraits either!
