"Who said it wasn't, that woman wasn't easy to mess with at first glance, I heard that she claimed to be a relative of Lord An, tsk, Lord An is so honest, how can there be such an arrogant and domineering relative."

"Who's to say it's not, she's followed by a few young people, and it's not a good thing at first glance. Even if what they say is true, relying on the official position of Lord An to act as a blessing is really a shame for Lord An. If it weren't for King Hong's righteous action, I don't know what to do now. ”

"There's no way, just pull them into prison." One man laughed in agreement. The others couldn't help but roll their eyes, "Lord An is the official that the emperor values the most now, and that yamen in Dongcheng dares not to give Lord An a little thin face." If it is really reported to the official, the shopkeeper is afraid that he will not return the money and suffer from prison. ”

"How can it be so mysterious as you say, Lord An is a good official. Will a good official still be indistinguishable from wrong? "There was something strange about the person who spoke just now.

"A good official is also a human being, there is such a confused relative, what can Lord An do, hey, poor Lord An, this time I am going to be miserable by these relatives......" A few people said for a while, and when they saw that it was not early, they went back to their respective homes.

The emperor glanced at Huangfu Xue, "Aren't your mother-in-law at the inn?" Why does it appear in the restaurant next door? ”

"I don't know very well, before going out, the prime minister went to look for his mother-in-law, maybe it was awkward at that time, the hour is not early, the emperor will go back to the palace first, I will take someone to find it." No matter what attitude he has towards the Li family in his heart, this will make the Li family's whereabouts unknown, and An Mingchen must be very anxious. She's going to help her find it.

The emperor glanced at the sky and frowned slightly, "Look at the sky, I'm afraid it's going to rain next, I don't worry if you go alone, I'll go with you." ”

"No need......" Huangfu Xue saw that the emperor was following and hurriedly refused. Although he and the emperor are above board, but they can't keep people to be terrible, if there are really any rumors, he will be speechless at that time, plus what Li said the day before yesterday, she doesn't want her to point at her nose and scold her for not abiding by women's morals.

It's just that the emperor seems to be iron-hearted, no matter what he says, the emperor has to follow her, and after refusing a few times, Huangfuxue can only nod and agree. Huangfu Xue was worried that the emperor would be uncomfortable with Dongcheng, so she took him to look for it, and on the other side, An Mingchen went directly to the yamen, and Lord Wu was amusing the concubine in the backyard, and when he heard the report, his brows frowned slightly. 、

"Beauty, you go back to the house for a while, and I'll look for you when I'm done." Wu Zhidong remembered the first two incidents, and quickly got up and pulled his shirt. Seeing this, the concubine snickered, "Master, are you going to see the emperor or the prince, and it's so grand." ”

"Beauty, you can't talk nonsense. This Lord An is now in the limelight, but it is not something I can offend. Alright, let's go inside. He was not allowed to come out without the order of Master Ben. ”

The beauty reluctantly took the maid back to the room, entered the house, remembered that she had heard rumors about An Mingchen recently, and suddenly became interested, turned around and went to the door to peek. The maid was worried that the master would find out, so she reminded carefully, "Auntie, you eavesdropped like this, if the master finds out......"

"Shut up, if you don't say it, I don't say it, who says knows. Alright, go and stand on the side. The aunt waved her hand, and when she looked out again, An Mingchen had already come. My aunt didn't know An Mingchen, but she inexplicably felt that the man in white outside was An Mingchen.

My aunt was born in Qinlou, and before she was bought back by Wu Zhidong, she could be regarded as a person who had seen all kinds of wind and moon, but she had never seen anyone like An Gongzi...... How to say it, Childe is unique, it's the scene in front of you. For a while, my aunt was obsessed with it.

In the courtyard, Wu Zhidong got up and greeted him respectfully, "I don't know if Lord An is coming, the lower officials have missed the welcome, and I hope that the Lord will atone for his sins." ”

"Lord Wu is polite, today is the official who took the liberty to disturb." An Mingchen was worried about the Li family, so he didn't have the heart to be polite with Wu Zhidong, and directly stated his purpose, "Lord Wu, this official came today because I want to ask my lord for help." I don't know ...... adults."

"Lord An is polite, Lord An can find the lower official is a blessing for the lower official, Lord An just has to say, as long as the lower official can do it, the lower official will do his best."

An Mingchen was not polite when he saw him so enthusiastic, and directly said the purpose of coming over today, Wu Zhidong thought that what was the matter, he just sent the yamen to find someone, which was the duty of their yamen, so he agreed without thinking about it. "I don't know where Lord An last saw them, there is a specific location, and it will be easier to find them when the little ones are looking for them."

"Yipinju in the west of the city, you can bring someone to find it directly over there later." An Mingchen left after speaking, he couldn't put all his hopes on the yamen, he also had to go back to find someone to help find him. The Li family is penniless, their temperament is not good, and he has many enemies, so he is worried that they will be taken advantage of.

When the sky was completely dark, Huangfu Xue spoke again, "Your Majesty, you better go back first, looking at the situation now, I am afraid that it will be difficult to find it for a while." ”

The emperor glanced up at the quiet street, a little worried, and nodded helplessly, "That's the only way, Miss Huangfu, if it's too late today, it's too dangerous for you to be alone on the street with a girl, why don't I send you to the Huangfu Mansion first, and then you find someone to accompany you out to look for it?" ”

Huangfu Xue thought for a moment when she heard this, "Okay, then thank you to the emperor." "It's troublesome left and right, it doesn't matter if it's one more time or one less time. The two of them walked to Huangfu's mansion together, and when they came to the door, Huangfuxue said thank you gratefully. At this time, a carriage came not far away, and the emperor glanced at it, waved his hand and said goodbye to Huangfu Xue.

"It's a pleasure to talk to you today, and I hope to have this opportunity next time." The emperor was in a good mood, the carriage approached, turned around and got into the carriage, Huangfu Xue watched the carriage leave before turning around and walking back, but just two steps before he saw An Mingchen at the door.

Seeing him standing a few steps away, looking at her expressionlessly, Huangfu Xue was inexplicably a little weak-hearted, and subconsciously opened her mouth to explain, An Mingchen spoke first, "You are very familiar with the emperor?" ”

Huang Fuxue walked forward, explaining as she went, "I'm not familiar with it, but I've only met a few times occasionally." Didn't I tell you before? ”

"It's just a few times that the emperor can not return to the palace so late for you, and even send you back in person?" An Mingchen was in a bad mood, at this hour, the Li family still had no news at all, he was already irritable, and when he saw Huangfu Xue and the emperor so close, the fire in his heart was like a fireball, and it was about to explode.

Huangfu Xue saw that she was in a bad mood, knowing that he was worried about the Li family, so she didn't say anything about his argument, and turned around and walked back. Seeing this, An Mingchen thought that he was weak-hearted, and strode forward to block her going, "What's the matter, I said it, so my heart is weak?" ”

"You get out of the way. An Mingchen, don't let me despise you. Huang Fuxue knew that she had misunderstood her relationship with the emperor, and she was very annoyed because of his distrust. Seeing that she was motionless, her face sank a little more, "An Mingchen, since you don't trust me so much, even if I explain for a long time, you won't believe it." So, I might as well not speak. ”

"Lady, I know that everything was bad for me before, but I ask myself, except for being unfair in my mother's matter, I have never done anything to be sorry for you. But what about you, when did you become so close to the emperor, why don't I know at all? If you had treated me as your husband, you would not have kept it a secret from me. ”

An Mingchen kept recalling what Li said that day, and the more he thought about it, the more ugly his face became. In the last few sentences, I definitely thought that Huangfu Xue had betrayed her.

"I'll say it again, I'm innocent with the emperor, not what you think." Huangfu Xue pushed him away and went straight back to the room. Caiyu saw that the young lady and her aunt were uneasy, and hurriedly went out. Huang Fuxue sat at the table and brought herself a cup of tea, and after looking for half an hour, her mouth was dry, and she didn't even eat dinner.

Caiyu knew, and after going out, she went to the small kitchen, and after a while, Caiyu walked in with food. An Mingchen sat in the outhouse, seeing this, his brows frowned slightly, "Your young lady hasn't had dinner at this hour?" ”

"Back to my aunt, after the young lady heard that the old lady was taken away in the afternoon, she went to look for the old lady, and she found it until now, so naturally she didn't have dinner." Caiyu was a little aggrieved for Huangfu Xue, and deliberately said it very clearly, sure enough, I saw An Mingchen raise his head suddenly, looked at her with a surprised and calm face, and spoke after half a sound, "You just said that my mother was taken away, who took them away?" ”

"This slave doesn't know, if my uncle wants to know, I'd better ask Miss." Caiyu turned around and walked in with dinner. Huang Fuxue was looking at the account book, and when she saw the two of them coming in one after the other, she didn't say anything, closed the account book, and went to get the chopsticks.

"Lady, I'm sorry, I just misunderstood you for my husband, I thought you were ......" was a very happy conversation with the emperor, and he didn't come back until now, he really didn't know that he came back so late to find the Li family.

Huangfu Xue glanced at her, and after a long time, she smiled bitterly and took a chopstick dish, "You don't have to apologize to me, I know what you think in your heart, but no matter how angry I am, she is my mother-in-law, as long as I am your An Mingchen's wife for a day, I can't care about their life or death." ”

"I know, I'm talking about ......" An Mingchen was inexplicably hungry, and seeing that she didn't want to mention it, she became more and more worried, "Lady, I'm sorry, I really shouldn't doubt you." ”

"You don't have to apologize, I've explained everything I should explain, believe it or not. Have you eaten, if you haven't eaten, eat some together. Huangfu Xue glanced at Caiyu, who handed him a pair of chopsticks and turned to leave the room. An Mingchen sat next to him, holding chopsticks for a long time but didn't move.

After a while, Huang Fuxue couldn't bear it, "Did you find them?" ”

"Not yet, I heard Caiyu say, do you know who took them away?" An Mingchen stared straight at her.
