Chapter 597: By the Lake
She thought that Liu Zixun was the same as those people, but now it seems that it is not.
"Brother Zi Xun is really honest."
"Yes, yes, no, no, there's nothing to be ashamed of, even if I don't know martial arts, it won't affect my current status."
Liu Zixun straightened up, not caring at all,
Chu Yongshuo's eyes were full of appreciation, and his impression of Liu Zixun was getting better and better.
"Princess, what are you going to do with these people?"
Wang Hao walked up to Chu Yongshuo and gave his hand.
"Assassinating the princess of Chu, what do you think should be done with the prefect of the palace? If it weren't for Prince Liu's action today, it would be this princess who would have been injured. ”
Chu Yongshuo coldly skimmed those who were kneeling on the ground and said to Wang Hao.
The words have been said obviously, if Wang Hao can't hear it, it will be extremely dull.
Liu Zixun breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, fortunately, Xiao Changge and Chu Yu ran fast, otherwise......
He could see with his own eyes that Xiao Changge deliberately pushed Chu Yongshuo, fortunately Chu Yongshuo was fine, otherwise he would have to investigate the matter thoroughly.
But what grievances do these people have with Xiao Changge? actually chased Xiao Changge for a few streets.
"Yes, I understand."
Wang Hao had an epiphany and nodded.
"Come on, bring these people back."
"Princess, you are frightened, why don't you send someone to send the princess back to the palace?"
Wang Hao bowed his waist and asked respectfully.
"With Yang guards to protect you, you won't bother the prefect of the king, but the prefect of the palace should not disappoint the palace, and the palace will send someone to inquire about the results later."
Chu Yongshuo said coldly, Wang Hao understood.
Although he had just sat in the position of the prefect, he was the prefect of the county before, and Chu Yongshuo said that he couldn't tolerate these people.
That is, he should investigate thoroughly, and it is better to uproot it.
Chu Yongshuo is the eldest princess most valued by Emperor Chu, if the people in the palace know that she was almost injured, she will not be able to spare these people, it is better for him to take this credit first, and it will not fall into the hands of others.
"Yes, Xia Guan will definitely not disappoint the princess."
Wang Hao patted his chest and promised, waved his hand, and left with those people.
"I was troubled by these people today, but I lost my interest and caused Brother Zi Xun to be injured."
Chu Yongshuo frowned and pouted, looking annoyed.
She was supposed to have a good time with Liu Zixun, but she didn't want to make a trip to bite the gold halfway to disrupt her plan.
"The princess doesn't need to take this matter to heart, I believe that the prefect will definitely give you an explanation."
"If the princess wants to play, I'll take the princess out when he's free, anyway, it's a long time to come."
Liu Zixun said politely, Chu Yongshuo frowned and was still a little displeased.
"Brother Zi Xun, why do you still call me a princess? Okay, I'll call you Brother Zixun, you call me Shuo'er, how can you become a princess again. ”
Chu Yongshuo said unhappily, Liu Zixun was stunned and sneered: "Yes, Shuo'er." ”
When Chu Yongshuo heard this, he opened his eyebrows and laughed.
"It's not too early, I'll send you back to the palace."
It was overcast, and it looked like it was going to rain.
It's summer this time, how can this weather still happen.
"Brother Zi Xun, please."
The three of them left, and the people who had been taken aback by this formation all came out.
It was also the first time they had seen Chu Yongshuo up close.
On the day Chu Yongshuo returned to the palace, all families tied lanterns outside the door to bless Chu Yongshuo for safety, and also wished Chu Yongshuo his return.
In the alley, Xiao Changge was clinging to the wall, and Chu Yu was pressing in front of her.
The two of them watched Chu Yongshuo and Liu Zixun walk by in the alley.
"Lord Wang, it's time for you to let go."
Xiao Changge looked at Chu Yu's hand that was still holding her waist, and said coldly.
Chu Yu didn't let go as if he was addicted.
"Shuo'er hasn't gone far yet, don't be careless."
A warm voice sounded from overhead, and Chu Yu looked at Xiao Changge with a smile.
This demonic face made Xiao Changge very jealous and envious.
"They can't even be seen now."
Xiao Changge pushed Chu Yu away with his elbow, and Chu Yu hissed and frowned.
"The most poisonous woman's heart."
He clutched his abdomen, in terrible pain.
He'd never put a dagger on his body all the time, and he shot quickly and accurately.
They have been married to each other, and they even hugged him like this, if he really did anything out of the ordinary to Xiao Changge, he believed that Xiao Changge could really kill him.
"Thank you for the compliment."
Xiao Changge was not angry, but thanked Chu Yu.
"Your plan is really good, borrow Chu Yongshuo's hand to get rid of the gold and silver gambling house."
Chu Yu stood up and praised.
Xiao Changge hugged the heavy bag, which was full of gold and silver tickets, and it was the first time in her life that she had encountered so many silver taels with her own hands.
It's so wonderful to be rich.
Xiao Changge shrugged his shoulders, held the money bag in his arms, and looked puzzled: "I can't understand what the prince is saying, we are just interested in going to the gambling house to gamble, aren't we?" ”
After saying that, Xiao Changge winked at Chu Yu.
Chu Yu sneered and nodded: "Yes." ”
"In this case, why do you want to use Princess Yongshuo to get rid of the gold and silver gambling house? Those people were arrested because they almost accidentally injured the princess, and they have nothing to do with me or you. ”
looked at Chu Yu with a smile in his eyes.
Chu Yu saw through it but didn't say it.
Although Xiao Changge didn't approve of him, he knew that Xiao Changge deliberately went to the gold and silver gambling house, and also deliberately let those people recognize her, and he also knew that Liu Zixun and Chu Yongshuo would come out today, and everything was in Xiao Changge's calculations.
When Chu Yongshuo leaves the palace, there will inevitably be guards around him, even if it is not above board, it should be in secret, plus the people around him are all eye-witnessing people in the gold and silver gambling house with knives and wooden sticks almost injured Chu Yongshuo, no matter how powerful the gold and silver gambling house is, it can't be washed away.
Another is that Wang Hao has just been promoted to the prefect of the capital recently, and he will definitely deal with it impartially, and he doesn't know that the backer of the gold and silver gambling house is the Yan family, Wang Hao will definitely take advantage of the situation to end the gambling house, and it will only be Wang Hao who offends the Yan family at that time.
And Xiao Changge is only a person watching the play, and his hands are very innocent.
"It's time to go and see how Yunji is."
Xiao Changge only remembered this, the competition of the champion of civil and military affairs was imminent, she should go to see how Yun Ji was prepared.
As long as Xiao Yongde can be taken advantage of in the competition, he will be useful.
Xiao Changge bypassed Chu Yu, and Chu Yu turned around and followed behind Xiao Changge.
After a while, the gold and silver gambling house was surrounded by officers and soldiers.
When the shopkeeper saw Wang Hao, he was stunned.
After all, he only knew Yi Zhifu, and when he saw that Wang Hao was wearing an official robe, he bent down and came up.
"My lord, may I ask..."
"Come on, fence this gambling house, if anyone resists, don't hesitate to kill!"
Wang Hao said with confidence, it was the first time he had been arrogant for so many years.
The few people in the yamen have confessed, and it is the people in this gambling house who are demons and almost hurt Chu Yongshuo.
"Hey, what are you doing here, this lord, we are just a small business, who are you offending here?"
The shopkeeper was a little inexplicable, Wang Hao snorted coldly, and grabbed the collar of the shopkeeper, but he was a little shorter than the shopkeeper, which looked really funny.
"To offend whom? You have offended the princess of the current Chu Kingdom! ”
"You, you come and tell him."
Wang Hao pointed to the officers and soldiers around him, and said with his hands on his waist.
"You accidentally injured Princess Yongshuo and Prince Liu, and you got both stolen goods, so you might as well come with us."
The shopkeeper was a little confused by the two words, and he was a little confused about the meaning of the words.
"My lord, the little one is a grass people, how can you recognize the princess?"
"Let's wait until we get to the yamen, and seal this gambling house!"
As soon as those gamblers saw the people from the government coming, they slipped away.
The shopkeeper is not allowed to justify, and the officers and soldiers around Wang Hao have already moved.
The seal sealed the door, and the people in the gambling house were taken away, along with the shopkeeper.
Inside the Prince's Mansion
"Spring and Summer, you said you saw my sachet but it's true?"
Zhu Er lifted the corner of her skirt and hurriedly ran over to stand by the lake in Chunxia.
"Oh, Sister Zhu'er, why did you come, I've been waiting here for a long time."
Chunxia frowned and complained, she waited for almost a short time before Zhu'er came, although the sky was gloomy, she was impatient.
And her right eyelid kept jumping, and she always felt a bad premonition, but she couldn't say it.
"I'll come over after I'm done, don't be angry in spring and summer."
"Where's my sachet? I searched for it early in the morning and couldn't find it. ”
Zhu Er held Chun Xia's hand and said anxiously.
"Sister Zhu'er really likes this sachet, look at you in a hurry."
Chun Xia smiled, Zhu Er stomped her feet: "Okay Zhu Er, just tell me." ”
"I also saw it by chance, you see the sachet is in the water, but unfortunately it floated too far to bring it up."
Chun Xia took Zhu Er's hand and led her to the side of the rockery, looking at the sparkling lake, but there was a half-sinking and half-floating sachet inside.
Dark green, coinciding with the lake, it's no wonder no one noticed.
"Well, how did this end up in the lake?"
Zhu Er sighed and said anxiously.
"I don't know about this, but I just saw that there seemed to be something floating on the lake, and I looked at it and felt familiar, and I remembered that Sister Zhu'er was looking for a sachet this morning, so I asked you to come and recognize it."
"Sister Zhu'er, you see it's going to be washed away by the lake."
Chun Xia said anxiously, Zhu Er saw this, how could she care about whether she could swim, and hurriedly took off her shoes and jewelry and walked to the lake.
The lake is connected to the lake outside, and if it is washed away, it will not be recovered.
"Spring and summer, you go and call a few people for me, I don't know how deep the water is."
Zhu'er's feet entered the water, although it was Xia Ke Lake, the water was still a little cold.
"Okay, Sister Zhu'er, be careful, I'll go find someone right away."
Looking at Zhu'er's back in the lake, Spring and Summer slowly retreated and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Zhu Er's eyes were staring at the sachet, for fear that the lake would wash it away.
She slowly swam over to the sachet, afraid that the ripples would push the sachet away.
Hand, grasping the sachet.
The mouth cracked and smiled, smiling happily.
She gasped for breath, and when she tried to swim to the shore, something suddenly grabbed her under her feet and dragged her to the bottom of the lake.
Zhu'er's eyes widened and she was startled.
I kicked on my feet, but I couldn't shake it off.
She could feel his hands grasping him underneath, trying to pull her to the bottom of the lake.
"Help... Help me. ”
Zhu Er let go of the sachet and slowly sank down.
Suddenly, a figure appeared from the lake, and the water splashed.
Holding Zhu'er's mouth with his hand, he pulled her into the lake.
The surface of the lake suddenly calmed down.
As if no one had ever come, the sachet also hung in the water, half-sinking and half-floating.
