Chapter 254: Returning the Favor

thought that he had a lot to say to his mother, but when he really came to the grave, Gan Peilin was speechless and choked.

After two lives and more than ten years apart, only she understands all kinds of sadness.

"Ma'am." Taking the opportunity to wipe her sweat, Yanzi whispered in her ear, "Someone is watching nearby."

She can say this, which shows that this person must not be Jiang Yu's person.

Gan Peilin remained silent and placed the pastries he brought in front of the grave. "Mother, your favorite flower cake in the past, your daughter made it herself. It's a pity that there aren't many fresh flowers at this time. Some ingredients can only be replaced with pickled flowers. Don't be disgusted. ”

Gan Peilin said this, but Yanzi clenched the blade in his hand. She suddenly flew away, attacking the people who were hiding in the shadows.

The man then fought her, and in the middle of the fight, Crispcore screamed.

"Miss, it's Rulan."

"Stop." Gan Peilin called Yanzi, and she clearly saw that Liulan was invincible, as if she was injured.

The swallow collected his sword and stepped aside.

Only then did Liulan endure the pain and came over to Gan Peilin: "Miss, please save the second son." Now I'm afraid only you can save him. ”

"Where do you start?" Gan Peilin raised his eyebrows: "Didn't he fight for the imperial court?" Since he is in command and goes on the expedition, he must be supported by heavy troops. Where is my turn to save a boudoir woman. ”

"The second son was in the middle of the plan, the troops were scattered, and he led a cavalry battalion to be trapped on the top of the mountain, and the army could not supply food and grass. The other party set up camp at the foot of the mountain to block the backup. But he didn't attack for several days. Obviously, he was going to fight a fatigue battle, and he saw that the second prince and the soldiers were short of water and food, and they couldn't last a few days. Eldest lady, the slave and maid risked death to kill, and wanted to enter the palace to beg the emperor for reinforcements, but she was seriously injured and couldn't even enter the palace gate. The guards didn't believe the slaves at all. They said that the court never received a letter from the second prince asking for help. In desperation, the slave came to beg you for ideas. I'm afraid that only you can save the second son. ”

"Liulan, you and I are master and servant, when we separated, the words were already very clear." Gan Peilin sighed lightly: "You have never done anything that is wrong with me, even if you have a purpose to stay by my side." I also thought about this affection, and I didn't think about pursuing it, so I just had my own good. I really can't help with your master's affairs. You'd better go. ”

"Miss." Liulan knelt and took two steps forward, her face full of tears: "Even if you don't look at the love with the slave and maid, don't you care about the second son's life-saving grace?" At the beginning in the market, the second son tried his best to save you, have you forgotten? And after that, the second son repeatedly took action to resolve the crisis for you, have you forgotten it? The slave and maid are brave today, and they are here to ask you for their kindness on behalf of the second son. Are you really so hard-hearted? ”

"Rulan, how can you talk to the eldest lady like this?" Crispy Core couldn't help but get angry: "Those things are not what the eldest lady forced your master to do." He did it voluntarily, why did he want the eldest lady to return his kindness. ”

"Miss, the slave wants to listen to you personally." There is really no way for Liulan to be like this.

Gan Peilin thought about what had happened these days, and he couldn't bear it.

She sank her mind and thought quietly about the question. Ao Su was trapped on the top of the mountain, but the letter asking for help did not reach the palace. Ao Su went out with Ao Min, but only Ao Su and Xiao cavalry were trapped on the top of the mountain. As a fellow war, did Ao Min not report to the court, or was his letters intercepted privately?

Or maybe someone in the court didn't want him to come back alive.

The most suspicious ...... Jiang Yu?

"Miss, slave beg. As long as you can save the second son, the life of the slave will be handed over to you. Liulan knelt and kowtowed to Gan Peilin until his forehead was broken and blood dripped on the soil.

"I don't want to see anything like this again." Gan Peilin raised his eyebrows slightly: "I'll help you think of a way."

"Really, great." Rulan cried with joy.

"However, you're here today to collect a debt for Ao Suo. If I save him this time, he and I will not owe each other. I hope you tell him. ”

From tonight onwards, there will be revenge, and there will be no more kindness.

"Chen Rui." Gan Peilin nodded to Chen Rui, who was waiting by the carriage: "You go to Xu's Mansion and tell your cousin about this." Let my cousin take Liulan into the palace to face the saint. ”

"Thank you, Miss." Rulan hurriedly saluted.

"There's not much I can help you, the rest depends on destiny." Gan Peilin gently pressed her shoulder. "Take care of yourself."

Chen Rui left with Liulan, but Gan Peilin's heart was still unsteady.

She seemed to be muttering to herself, but she seemed to be deliberately speaking to the swallows.

"The two sons of the Ao family have only just begun to make contributions, and the number of expeditions is only a handful. There are people who don't want them to come back. ”、

Yanzi didn't have any superfluous expression, but said, "Maybe someone wants to take precautions."

Gan Peilin didn't see any clues from her face, so he got into the carriage with her and Crispy Core's hands. Before the curtain was lowered, the sound of horses' hooves was heard.

"Drive-"

"Looks like they're coming towards us." Swallow couldn't help but be a little surprised. When she saw the person clearly, she felt even more strange.

"Isn't this the cousin that the master rescued that day? After hearing that she was rescued, she has been hiding in Yonghua Garden and refusing to see anyone. Even the Chinese New Year's Eve reunion banquet did not go out of the room. ”

Gan Peilin heard this, and slightly hooked his lips: "She, she must have come to intercede for Ao Xuan."

"She?" Swallow was a little confused: "Why did she ......"

Mo Chuxue gasped, grabbed the reins and stopped the horse, immediately jumped off the horse's back, and saluted Gan Peilin in the carriage: "Big sister, Ao Su has an accident." Have you received any messages? He's trapped in ......"

Gan Peilin lifted the curtain, and saw that she was sweating profusely and her face was blue, she really cared about Ao Xuan.

"What does his business have to do with me? Wouldn't it be strange that you came to me so recklessly? ”

"Big sister." Mo Chuxue took a step forward and grabbed the reins of the carriage: "I want to beg my uncle to come, but my uncle is angry with my aunt and refuses to see me at all." I have no other way but to find you. How do you want me to agree to save Ao Sue? If you say it, I can do it. ”

"Really?" Gan Peilin looked at her flawless and innocent face, and suddenly remembered that on the high jade steps, she was commanding, looking at herself and her child. The hatred in my heart rolled up in an instant. "I want to know how much you can give to Ao Xuan."

These words made Mo Chuxue stunned for a moment.

But soon, she came back to her senses from her contemplation: "Big sister, I'm willing to give everything. Even if it's my life. ”

Maybe from the past life to this life, the only thing that hasn't changed is Mo Chuxue's love for Ao Xuan.

"I don't believe it." Gan Peilin said this deliberately.

"As long as the big sister is willing to save him." Mo Chuxue took out a dagger from his sleeve: "I can die."

"Who are you scaring about?" Crispy Core snorted.

Mo Chuxue immediately pulled out the dagger and was about to stab herself.

Gan Peilin winked, and the swallow immediately shot down the dagger.

"It's your business to die, but don't be at my mother's grave." Gan Peilin said with cold eyes: "Since you want to help Ao Xuan so much, it's not impossible." I can tell you where he's trapped, and I can give you enough food and grass for you to save him. It's just that you have to find a way to save your sweetheart, and I can't help with this. ”

Mo Chuxue did not hesitate, and nodded coolly: "Okay, I am willing."

"You go home first. Set off when it's dark. Gan Peilin smiled gently: "Give me time to raise supplies for you."

If she insists on going, life and death are her choices. Gan Peilin's mood is not clear.

Maybe in this life, it will be difficult for her to risk her life to fall in love with anyone like Mo Chuxue. After all, it was too bitter, and she really didn't want to try it again.

After Xu Baisen met the emperor, he came to Ganfu.

At that time, Gan Peilin was sitting in the warm pavilion of the Star Picking Building drinking tea, bored.

"Peilin." Xu Baisen stood beside her for a while, and the other party didn't notice.

"My cousin is here." Gan Peilin heard his voice and curled his lips slightly.

"There's something I don't quite understand." Xu Baisen said with deep eyes: "The rise of the Ao family doesn't seem to be a good thing. Why do you want me to bring Rulan into the palace? ”

"The rise of the Ao family is not a bad thing for Ganfu." Gan Peilin said calmly: "Cousin sat down and said while drinking tea."

Xu Baisen sat down next to her, and the crispy core brought hot tea to him. "Thank you."

After taking a sip of tea, he continued to ask, "Why do I seem to be a little confused?" What do you mean......"

"The emperor has always wanted to take away the military power from his father, although he has not succeeded, but this heart is worth our beware. But if the Ao family can stand out and compete with the Grand Governor's Mansion and the Great Sima Mansion, and become a three-legged stand, then King Yeqing's power will be weakened in an instant. In this way, the emperor has no way to immediately move the military power of any clan, after all, it is better to control Hu Xiang than to stand alone. Sometimes, deliberately putting wolves into the flock to get stronger sheep may seem like a risky move, but it is actually very beneficial. Besides, whether to support the Ao family or not, the emperor has his own holy decision. ”

"Oh my God, Peilin, you're thinking so far." Xu Baisen looked at Gan Peilin, who was not very old in front of him, and his heart was slightly warm. "If you were a man, maybe you could be the prime minister."

"Huh." Gan Peilin was amused by him. "Forget it, Prime Minister."

"That's right." Xu Baisen stared at her: "It's too tiring to be an official, it's better for you to live freely now."

"Where's Rulan?" Gan Peilin had to ask.

The emperor immediately sent reinforcements, and she followed. And let me thank you and say that when the matter is over, I will come to the door in person. Xu Baisen said with a smile: "She is a girl, and she dares to go to the battlefield, which is indeed amazing."

"She, her heart belongs, don't beat her idea." Gan Peilin said directly.

"Where does the heart belong?" Xu Baisen was a little unconvinced: "Who?"

"Naturally, she is the one she cares about the most." Gan Peilin smiled slightly, but did not say Ao Xuan's name.
