Chapter 641 - Able to last a few days

Chu Xia followed Xiao Ran all the way to the Nine Flowers Pavilion by the front hall, and saw the young man who had seen him a few times from a distance, standing in the pavilion that was transparent on all sides, holding a soup woman and shrinking his shoulders coldly, looking pitiful.

This is a place to enjoy the flowers in the eldest princess's mansion, and the surrounding gardens are planted with nine kinds of flowers of different colors, and they are changed to different flowers and plants according to the seasons in spring, summer and autumn, which is particularly beautiful.

But now it's winter, and if you put on hardy plants, it's not much to look at, mainly because there is not even a window, and standing here is no different from standing outside, it's very cold.

Chu Xia didn't understand, how did Xiao Ran bring people here, some were warm houses with charcoal burned, did he want to embarrass this young man?

But this is not his style, the other party is still Zhuang Xuewen's person, and it is impossible to receive this kind of cold reception.

He glanced at Xiao Ran, and said as he walked towards the Nine Flowers Pavilion, "Are you trying to snub me?" ”

Xiao Ran said: "My lord, he said that he has something important to tell him, and he can't be known by others, so it's best to find a place where no one will hear." The subordinate wanted to lead him into the study, but when he passed by this place, he said that it was good here, and he would not be listened to. ”

"It's really a good place, I can't even hide half of the people, it's more reassuring than in the house." Chu Xia said a little speechlessly, but he wanted to go to the warm room to read the letter.

There are many people in the eldest princess's mansion, and after dawn, no ice and snow are allowed to freeze on the road. Therefore, early in the morning, before dawn, someone came to clean and shovel snow, and the road was unusually clean.

Chu Xia walked into the Nine Flowers Pavilion with light steps, and found that there were some steps here, which were higher than the garden view, and the wind was blowing a lot stronger.

He pulled the fur collar on his cloak and said to Tong Yu: "Could it be that you sent Zhuang Rou's birthday, that's why you chose this kind of place that can't be seen?" ”

Tong Yu was stunned, then respectfully took out the letter from his arms, and handed it to Chu Xia with both hands, "My lord, please see, this is the letter that my son-in-law just received, and the son-in-law asked me to send it to the adult, and instructed that the whole authority should be handled by the adult." ”

"Huh?" Chu Xia felt a little strange, this statement was a bit like a letter sent by Zhuang Rou, Zhuang Xuewen was not easy to answer, so he handed it over to himself.

But if Zhuang Rou had something to talk about herself and Zhuang Xuewen, she would also send a letter to herself in advance, and this kind of sudden letter was probably not sent by her.

After receiving the letter, Chu Xia was suddenly shocked, could it be that something happened to Zhuang Rou?

He pulled out the letter, handed the envelope to Xiao Ran, and looked at it in the cold wind.

And Gonggong Gui, who followed closely, was blocked by Xiao Ran to a place five feet outside the Jiuhua Pavilion, and he could only watch the two people in the pavilion from a distance and not get close.

Although it was densely written, the letter, which was only a piece of paper, made Chu Xia read it for a long time.

Finally, he snorted and looked up at Tong Yu, "What else did my brother-in-law say?" ”

This guy really has intentions for Sister Zhuang, obviously wants to marry the princess of Qingliang Kingdom, and dares to call brother-in-law to the brother of a woman from a good family who has never mentioned his relatives.

Tong Yu was dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to delay the matter, and said honestly: "Gongzi asked the villain to tell the county king the information of a person." ”

"Say." Chu Xia didn't know if he had read the contents of the letter, but he said that the information must be the person in the letter.

Tong Yu said simply and clearly: "Zhou You is the fifth son of the master of Haoran Sect, mainly responsible for collecting intelligence and winning over officials. ”

"There are many industries under the name, but they all hang the brand of Tianxiang Pavilion, and there is a hot spring villa in Xiongshui County, called Tianxiang Yaju. Not only the masters of the sect like to go, but also many wealthy people and officials. ”

Chu Xia put the letter away and said with some dissatisfaction: "This is the only information for this? ”

This made Tong Yu, who specialized in collecting intelligence for Zhuang Xuewen, very embarrassed, and he had to explain: "We mainly collect intelligence around the capital and officials in various parts of the imperial court. ”

"It's only been three years since we sent people to collect intelligence from the rivers and lakes, so we only have some brief information."

Tong Yu knew very well that he would send people to the rivers and lakes, also because he wanted to help the emperor find King Ren. In fact, there is not much information about those people in the rivers and lakes, the imperial court has a large army and various means, but it is just a matter of whether they want to get them.

He thought for a while and said, "The master of Haoran Gate is Renwang Zhou Long, and this Zhou You is the son he gave birth to after he fled. ”

After hearing this, Chu Xia said, "Do you know what is written in the letter? ”

Tong Yu shook his head, "I don't know, Childe didn't show the villain the contents of the letter." ”

This one named Zhou You said that Zhuang Rou was in his hands, and he wanted to exchange benefits and betray his father casually. He wants four unicorn cannons in my Xuanji Battalion, as well as drawings and craftsmen, otherwise he will starve Zhuang Rou to death. Chu Xia said with a slight smile, as if he was saying something ridiculous.

Sister Zhuang!

Tong Yu was startled and scolded angrily: "This bastard! Look for death! ”

"Ugh." Chu Xia sighed, "According to the letter, Zhuang Rou should have been locked up since the twenty-eighth day of the Lunar New Year, and only four days later was given a medicated steamed bun." So she hadn't eaten for at least three days, and she had to stay up for another day before she could eat. ”

"During the Chinese New Year, she couldn't even drink hot water, this Zhou You is really looking for death. If you want my things, forget it, but you're still hungry for my little monster, how can you let him die? He handed the letter to Xiao Ran.

Chu Xia thought for a while and said, "Xiao Ran, let Shi Zang take a team of people to Guanquan Mansion, no, go to Xiongshui County." If there is a hot spring villa, the little monster will not let himself suffer, and will definitely go there for the New Year. Zhou You happened to have a hot spring villa there, and he must have trapped people there. ”

The last time Qin Qiu came back from delivering the letter, Zhuang Rou was in Guanquan Mansion, and it was impossible for her to go to other places with such a close distance.

"He asked me to go to Huacheng to talk, just in the middle of Jingzhou to the capital, and I can get there in three days by walking the Jinguan River. Prepare the carriage, set off immediately, and send someone to report to the emperor and my mother, I will not go to the imperial banquet tonight. ”

After Chu Xia finished giving the order, he looked up and found that Tong Yu had a frightened look on his face, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't worry, I won't let Zhuang Rou starve to death." ”

"No, it's not. Sister Zhuang can't be hungry, it will be bad for her to be hungry for so long! Tong Yu shook his head in panic, as if he had experienced something terrible, and was frightened.

Chu Xia stared at him and asked, "What will happen?" ”

Tong Yu covered his mouth, his eyes widened, and it was easy to squeeze out a sentence, "Ghosts, they will become ghosts." ”

"......" Chu Xia raised his head lightly and took a step back, "Don't scare me." ”

"Xiao Ran, let Shi Zang carry some food, and throw it when he sees her. If you see her gnawing people, stay away first. After thinking about it, he still felt that it was more reliable to bring some food.

Although Chu Xia didn't see it with his own eyes, the red woman was gone, and the people also said that she ate people all day long, maybe this kind of thing was true.
