Xiao Wanyan refused to give up, she continued to ask: "You tell me honestly, do you have something to hide from me." ”

Seeing that Chu Huairan was still silent, Xiao Wanyan pretended to be angry, turned sideways, turned her back to her, and muttered: "Say what you want to be good to me, you want to live a good life with me, it's good now, hide everything from me, sure enough, the man's mouth is full of sweet words, and I can't believe it at all." ”

After speaking, Xiao Wanyan stopped making a sound, quietly listening to Chu Huairan's movements, and after half a sound, Chu Huairan turned around, hugged her waist, straightened her body, touched her head, and said helplessly: "Knowing too well is not good for you, and it may cause you to be killed, so why bother with this." ”

Xiao Wanyan pouted displeasedly: "It is said that husband and wife are one, you have been in danger for a long time, and you still refuse to tell me, Chu Huairan, is it that in your eyes, I am a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death?" ”

Saying that, she pretended to be angry, looking angry, and looked into Chu Huairan's eyes: "If you really look at me like this, we will be reconciled tomorrow, which will be safer for me, and it will also make me completely sit on the reputation of being greedy for life and afraid of death." ”

Xiao Wanyan wanted to sit up, but was held down by Chu Huairan, his expression was complicated, he sighed, and still planned to tolerate Xiao Wanyan's unreasonable trouble: "You stay away from King Yi these days, the emperor has already mastered the evidence of his collaboration with the enemy, and this time he can't escape." ”

Xiao Wanyan was surprised in her heart: "Collaboration with the enemy? And with whom? ”

Chu Huairan hugged her tighter: "With the king of Nancheng in the Western Regions, the emperor's people found poison in King Yi's mansion, and the poison ingredients in the fireworks in the banquet that day are the same, King Yi wants to usurp the throne for more than a day or two, and this time it is reasonable to cooperate with King Xicheng." ”

Xiao Wanyan's face changed from surprise to calm, no wonder the guards in the palace have increased recently, it turned out to be a change, fortunately, she already had an embankment, if Qi Jiuchen was defeated this time, then Chu Huairan would be the only one left who coveted the throne.

She thought of Feng Ruyi in the post house again, and couldn't help blurting out: "Since the emperor suspects King Yi, why does he still detain Empress Daliang?" ”

Speaking of this, Chu Huairan's face changed again and again, and he said in a deep voice: "How do you know that Empress Daliang is being held in the post house?" Where did you hear about it? ”

Xiao Wanyan forgot that Feng Ruyi was detained in the post house because Chu Huairan personally sent someone to guard and lock the news, so saying this must have aroused his suspicions, Xiao Wanyan bit her lip nervously, and pretended to be calm: "You, you forgot, I was kidnapped by the assassins, naturally I heard from them that the Empress of Daliang was imprisoned in the post house by you, and when they came back, they each fled, otherwise how could I escape"

This statement can be regarded as the past, Chu Huairan didn't suspect it, Xiao Wanyan pretended to be annoyed when he saw this, and pinched his nose lightly: "You doubt me?" ”

Chu Huairan softened his voice and held her hand: "How could I doubt you, I just blame myself for not protecting you and putting you in danger again and again." ”

Xiao Wanyan is not greedy, she is a master who accepts it when she sees it, she raised her left hand and hugged Chu Huairan's waist: "I don't blame you, after all, the world is impermanent, and what is about to happen is not something I can predict." ”

Xiao Wanyan has more and more potential as a good wife and mother, Chu Huairan also felt that when he came back this time, Xiao Wanyan's feelings for him were much deeper, not to mention that he was obedient to him, but he could often get tired of being with him, which won his heart.

Chu Huairan was a little tired, and slowly closed his eyes, he liked the feeling of being by Xiao Wanyan's side, he could let go of the shell of his body and rest with peace of mind.

Xiao Wanyan still wanted to ask for some valuable news, but she was afraid that Chu Huairan would be suspicious, so she had to think for a moment, and when he was half asleep, she said softly: "If King Yi fails this time, do you still plan to fight for that position?" ”

Chu Huairan closed his eyes and replied, "Of course, I live for that position. ”

Chu Huairan did not hide his ambition for the throne at all, and he could even say it without hesitation, Xiao Wanyan pretended to be nervous: "In case the emperor knows your mind, if you fail......"

Chu Huairan held Xiao Wanyan's hand again: "Do you think the emperor doesn't know now?" He has seen me through since I entered the court as an official, but if I really fail, then I will die together, and I will not let him be happy. ”

He noticed that Xiao Wanyan's hand trembled, and thought that he was worried about him, so he comforted him: "Don't worry, if you really fail, I will settle you in the future." ”

Xiao Wanyan's performance almost deceived herself, she slowly closed her eyes, if the emperor had long been aware of Huai Ran's intention to usurp the throne, why should he indulge him, this was the only thing she couldn't understand.

didn't hear Xiao Wanyan continue to ask, Chu Huairan slowly opened her eyes, saw her wrinkled face in some distress, and patted her shoulder: "Are you angry again?" ”

He thought that it was his open-mouthed mouth that angered Xiao Wanyan and made her not want to speak, so he reflected for a while: "I didn't mean to say this, don't be angry." ”

According to the normal woman's train of thought, Xiao Wanyan should now complain that he treats himself as an outsider, complains that he forgets the love between husband and wife, Xiao Wanyan pinched her thigh, a tear hurt, her eyes were slightly red, she opened her eyes, and looked at Chu Huai's dark eyes: "Have you never arranged me in your plan, at first you wanted to get rid of me, and then you hooked my heart, why do you want to love and go." ”

This was said quite calmly, but Chu Huairan felt endless sadness in it, he was not good at coaxing people, looking at Xiao Wanyan's tears, he was in a hurry for a while, but he would only hold her and admit his mistake: "I'm sorry, my fault." ”

Xiao Wanyan pressed against his chest, felt his heartbeat, felt his stability, and muttered, "Don't say these words in the future." ”

Chu Huairan was relieved, and he said firmly: "Don't say it again." ”

In fact, Xiao Wanyan was really afraid that she would be deeply involved in it, and she would be unable to extricate herself from deceiving Chu Huairan's feelings in the end.

Two days later, Zhao Yiran came to visit, and the wound on her face had healed, after all, it was a good ointment on the beam, and it naturally got better quickly.

Xiao Wanyan welcomed her into the house, and the two talked happily, and Zhao Yiran had a new view of the rumored Mrs. of the Prime Minister's Mansion, after getting to know her, she did not see Xiao Wanyan's viciousness and selfishness, but behaved generously and spoke politely, at least more like the princess.

Zhao Yiran is a person who doesn't like to go with the flow, she only acts according to her own rules, believes what she has seen with her own eyes, believes what she has heard with her own ears, after getting along, she and Xiao Wanyan hate to see each other late, it is simply not too harmonious.

Speaking of the rumors outside, Zhao Yiran was very puzzled: "Wanyan, the lady outside passed on to you like that, why did you never come forward to explain and let them slander you?" ”

Xiao Wanyan smiled and was a little indifferent: "The turbidity is self-turbid, and the pure is self-purifying, I believe that time will make them see everything clearly, just like you, don't you don't believe those words to come to me for tea and talk, I believe that there will always be people like you who understand me." ”

Zhao Yiran also gave her advice: "I know that the princess is arrogant, and she is definitely not willing to be on an equal footing with you, no, you can't let her say bad things about you outside." ”

Xiao Wanyan pretended to be worried, shook her head and said: "The princess has a noble status, and she already looks down on me as an official lady, not to mention that she is not favored by her grandfather, so she naturally wants to be angry with me, Yiran, you can't come nonsense and cause trouble for yourself." ”

Although the family of the general is not more noble than the royal family, he can hold the military power in his hands, and he does not look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha, even if he clashes head-on with Qi Xiaoran, for the stability of the court, the emperor has to weigh it.

Zhao Yiran is a person who thinks that she will not look back, she has made up her mind that the nine horses will not be able to pull back: "Don't worry, among these ladies and misses, my words still have a certain weight, and not everyone is the princess's head, her temper has long been disliked by some people, but because of her identity, she doesn't say it." ”

Xiao Wanyan knew the reason why Zhao Yiran was so eager to stand up for her, after all, behind her was the general of soldiers and horses, if it wasn't for the general's signal, she wouldn't have come to visit so soon, this is their sincerity and the camp they are on.

Whether Zhao Yiran is credible or not, she still needs to be contacted for a while, so it seems that she has one more person to do it for her, and she can save a lot of trouble, Xiao Wanyan gestured to Qu Xiaoran with a look: "Go, bring my treasured bracelet." ”

The red lotus blood jade bracelet was sent by Chu Huairan, it is said to be a tribute from the Wusi Kingdom, I heard Han Yi say that the emperor gave him a reward because of Chu Huairan's high merit and hard work, and let him choose whatever he wanted in the tribute, but he only brought back a box of jewelry, and finally sent it all to her house.

The bracelet is delicate and transparent, the color is pure, revealing a gentle charm, when Qu Xiaoran put the bracelet in front of Zhao Yiran, her eyes were straight, and she immediately lost her expression when she noticed her gaffe, and smiled slightly.

Seeing through and not breaking has always been Xiao Wanyan's style of doing things, she smiled lightly and pulled Zhao Yiran's hand and brought the bracelet to her wrist: "Meiyu matches beauty, I said that you must look good with it, and I said it." ”

Zhao Yiran first shirked: "This bracelet is too precious for me to accept." ”

Xiao Wanyan naturally understood her thoughts, and said a few polite words by the way: "This bracelet can't be eaten or drunk, it's better to give it to someone who really likes it, and it's better than putting it here with me." ”

Zhao Yiran still wanted to shirk it, but Xiao Wanyan pretended to be angry: "I'm angry when you're like this, aren't you something I sent?" ”

"How could it be, I was too late to be happy, how could I dislike it." Zhao Yiran had no choice but to accept it, her heart was excited, although the joy was revealed in her eyes, she was still suppressed by her as much as possible.

"Then you can keep it, I can't bring so much anyway, and I'll keep an eye on the beautiful jewelry for you in the future." Xiao Wanyan had a smiling face, the atmosphere between the two was very harmonious, and those who didn't know thought they were sisters who had been together for more than ten years.
