Chu Nian stood up slowly, the water surface that gradually calmed down reflected her cold face, she exercised, stepped on the water, and walked slowly towards Tao Jinyan who was immersed in the water, until she walked in front of Tao Jinyan step by step, she squatted down.

"Tao Jinyan, who are you?"

Looking at the dangerous squinting eyes, Tao Jinyan only felt that there was a cat squatting in front of him with sharp claws, he licked his moist lips, well, he really had a fishy smell on his body, otherwise how could this kitten regard him as prey?

The peach blossom eyes bent into two arcs inappropriately, as if they were unaware of their embarrassing situation.

"It doesn't matter who I am, you just need to know that I'm the one who will help you."

At this moment, he was soaking wet, his originally neat clothes were loosely glued to his body, a small collarbone was unexpectedly exposed around his neck, and there was an Adam's apple that was surging up and down.

The more I look at it, the more it looks like a stunner, but it's a pity that this stunner is a man's body, otherwise it will inevitably attract those males in Kyoto to be crazy after it.

Chu Nian stretched out his hand and twisted a handful of dripping ink hair from his neck: "If you really know the whole truth, how can you not know how much I hate people who pretend to be smart?" ”

Tao Jinyan's face was slightly gloomy, a pair of peach blossom eyes flickered clearly, and she saw a slender figure get up, her black hair fluttered gently in the wind, she turned around calmly, and her voice fell lightly: "Tao Jinyan, if you really know me, you should know that I will not leave a person who knows all my secrets, but I don't know anything about him, by my side." ”

"You, do it yourself."

At last, the pale blue figure flickered slightly, and then disappeared into the huge garden, as if she had never been, and the surroundings fell into an abnormal calm again.

After a while, Tao Jinyan slowly got up against the rockery, and couldn't help but spurt a mouthful of blood from his mouth, he wiped the corners of his mouth casually, and then looked at the direction where Chu Nian left and muttered: "This little girl, you are ruthless enough." ”

……

Leaving the Walnut Tavern, Chu Nian subconsciously clenched her right fist, Tao Jinyan's attitude she couldn't figure out, now almost everyone in Beijing knows that she has a good relationship with Su Nian, therefore, she is unguarded, but she doesn't want to, she is still being exploited by Tao Jinyan?

Although this is not a big deal, even if Momo Jinyan picks out the news and spreads the news, few people can believe in the fallacy of resurrection, this Kyoto people are too realistic, they can only see the real benefits in front of their eyes, and all the illusory legends or miracles are just stepping stones that can be used.

But after all, he spread his secret in front of a person who didn't know anything, and Chu Nian wouldn't feel at peace in his heart.

What's more, this person also used illusion to control Shen Dui, who had seen all kinds of winds and waves for a long time.

No matter how much alcohol you drink, it is impossible to change a person's vision, there is still a big gap between Chu Nian's appearance and Su Nian, besides, with Chu Nian's understanding, before she entered, Shen Duan, who had been wandering around the officialdom for many years and socializing with officials, was not enough to lose her mind.

Either Tao Jinyan made a move in Shen Dui's wine and food, or he used illusion on Shen Dui.

And Chu Nian hadn't heard of any medicine in this world that could make people hallucinate like crazy demons, at least in the territory of Da Liang, it would never be found.

Tao told her clearly that he was just a mere scholar and a little trick to make a living. Now she knows martial arts and illusions, and she can even see her secrets...... Chu Nian had an inexplicable sense of crisis towards Tao Jinyan, with her experience, such a person who was full of lies, no matter whether he was good or not, he must not be asked to stand behind him.

Who knows, one day such a person will stab himself in the back on a whim.

Oh, but what Tao Jinyan gave her this time was really a "big gift".

Dark Three landed on Chu Nian's side at the right time, turning a blind eye to the passers-by. Chu Nian looked at him sideways and said with a smile: "You know when to show up." ”

Dark San seemed to want to please Chu Nian, who was gloomy under his eyes, and he said as if inviting merit: "Lady, do you want to check the background of this peach Jinyan?" ”

"Didn't your prince tell you to check it earlier? Got the results? "Everyone she has come into contact with, Ming Xiu has already sent someone to check, Chu Nian only opened one eye and closed one eye, saving a lot of effort left and right, but when he came to Tao Jinyan, Ming Xiu just showed that he didn't like him from beginning to end, but he never commented on this person's life experience, and he didn't find anything.

Chu Nian looked at Dark San with a little mockery in his eyes, and looked at Dark San and lowered his head embarrassedly, "If he can find out so directly, it won't make me angry." ”

happened to walk to the door of Jishitang, Chu Nian dodged into the house, and said: "Go and check if there is any news about the Tao family, the first family of the rivers and lakes, and report any changes to me." ”

Dark San showed a look of sudden realization, his figure flashed, and he disappeared into the crowd, and the crowd was bustling, but no one noticed that there was still a person here.

Jishitang was still overcrowded, and Ah Wu took a break from her busy schedule: "Lady." ”

Chu Nian nodded, and walked towards the backyard first, Ah Nian put down the things in her hand and followed, and walked straight to the empty backyard, Chu Nian looked back at Ah Niang, her eyes were a little urgent: "Is there a way to save Ah Qing recorded in the medical book?" ”

If it weren't for Tao Jinyan's lack of trouble, she would have come over and ask a long time ago.

Seeing the vague anxiety in Chu Nian's eyes, Ah Wu lowered her head a little ashamed: "Lady, most of the books only record how to protect the body of the 'lost soul' in the state of 'lost soul', and none of them can cure this disease." ”

Chu Nian frowned, let out a faint "oh", and saw Ah Wu raise her head, and stopped talking.

"What can't you say to me?" Chu Nian's eyes fell on Ah Wu's tangled jade fingers, and a hint of foreboding rose in his heart.

Ah Wu said honestly: "A few days ago, the people of the Chen family came to buy medicine, saying that Liu's illness was and the young marquis was anxious, I asked the man why he didn't inform Sanniang, saying that the young marquis was afraid that you would be too worried and tired. ”

Chu Yuanlang's new official took office, so he was naturally busy, Chu Nian heard his aunt mention it at this time, and then remembered that he hadn't been back to the Chu family for a while, and Xiao Chen's side had been secretly watching, and he hadn't said anything about it these days.

Okay, why is Liu sick?

Chu Nian lowered his eyes and pondered for a while, then raised his head and said, "Let's go, let's go to the Chu family together." ”

The person behind Xiao Chen's has always been low-key, and his help to Xiao Chen's is pitiful, it looks more like a casual gang, and he doesn't care about the result, according to Xiao Chen's stingy methods, the person behind her doesn't look like a big person, but after all, he is prepared, if it is really Xiao Chen's trouble, this time maybe he can touch the melon and find out the person who has been helping Xiao Chen's mother and son.

……

At the same time, in the queen mother's bedroom, the maids had long been retreated, the windows were tightly closed, and the room was dark, only a few candles flickered ambiguously.

There was a smell of absurdity in the room, and the Queen Mother was lying on her side on top of the soft collapse, looking at a ragged guard kneeling on the ground.

"What, you don't want to be rich and prosperous?"

The guard shook his body and buried his head deeper: "Ask the Queen Mother for mercy!" ”

If he wants to be a dignified seven-foot man and serve an eighty-year-old woman every day, it is better to castrate him as a eunuch!

It was the first time that the queen mother, who was used to being praised, had encountered a hard j' bone, and she squinted slightly at the seemingly resolute guard with her eyes heavily painted on it, and only after a long time did she raise her head, and an ugly laugh came out of her throat.

The guard shook his body, and was thinking about whether to save his life or to protect his temperament, so he heard the Queen Mother say: "In this case, the mourning family is not willing to force it, you go back and be your guard honestly, and after the princess of Xichu leaves, the mourning family will go to Lingshan Temple, you bring a few reliable brothers to follow the mourning family." ”

Seeing that the Queen Mother was relieved so easily, the guard hurriedly kowtowed and thanked her: "Thank you, Queen Mother!" Thank you, Empress Dowager! ”

At this time, Mama Li's voice came from outside the door: "Queen Mother, Princess Xichu has arrived." ”

The Queen Mother frowned slightly, I heard that the eldest princess of Xichu had already entered Kyoto, why did she come at this time?

"Is the emperor in the upper study? Tell someone to lead them there first, and you come in and help the mourners to freshen up. ”

"Yes." Mama Li answered, turned around and went to arrange someone.

The guard sneakily went out of the palace at the signal of the Queen Mother, and it was dark.

When the Queen Mother arrived in the study, the emperor had a very happy conversation with Xichu Yueling, and when the Queen Mother came in and sat down, Xichu Yueling leaned over slightly to express his respect, and the courtesy was very sufficient.

Seeing the beautiful face of Xichu Yueling, the Queen Mother nodded appreciatively, but unfortunately, this princess is the future heir to the throne, and the marriage cannot be counted on, otherwise their Wang family can still have more helpers.

If Xichu Yueling knew the Queen Mother's thoughts, he would definitely vomit a mouthful of blood and get married? The Queen Mother's ambition is big enough, not to mention that she controls the entire Da Liang, and her tentacles want to extend to Xichu.

When the Queen Mother looked at Xi Chu Yueling, Xi Chu Yue Ling was not looking at the Queen Mother, I have to say that the Queen Mother who has sorted out her appearance at this moment is dignified and dignified, and her old state is clearly displayed, but she also has a fine light in her eyes, which makes it impossible to ignore.

Xi Chu Yue Ling vaguely looked at the emperor who had stopped talking since the Queen Mother came in, and turned his eyes to look at the Queen Mother with a smile: "I just came here to contact the friendship with your country, and now it is an honor for the younger generation to meet such a dignified Queen Mother." ”

For the compliment of Xichu Yueling, the Queen Mother seemed to be very useful, and she said slowly: "I have heard for a long time that the eldest princess of Xichu is both talented and beautiful, and today I saw that it was really extraordinary. ”

Xichu Yueling smiled slightly, saying that everything was fine, and then saw that the queen mother said with some regret: "It's just that the eldest princess is really low-key, and the mourning family has not received the news, and the embassy of your country has already arrived, which is quite sluggish, and I hope the eldest princess will forgive me, the eldest princess can rest in the palace for a few days, I don't know why the minister did not enter the palace with the princess?" ”

As she spoke, the Queen Mother's gaze swept over the only guard behind Xichu Yueling, obviously a little curious.

Xichu Yueling said patiently: "The younger generation of this trip is here to visit the queen mother, in addition, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of our country said that she was ill, and the mother was very worried, so she specially ordered the younger generation to visit the eldest princess, so she came in a hurry, and the envoy and his party temporarily lived in the eldest princess's mansion." ”

Since the eldest princess of Xichu married to Da Liang, it has been more than a few decades, and the relationship between the eldest princess of Xichu and the empress is not good, and the only thing that Da Liang can make the empress and Xichu Yueling worry about is to marry Mrs. Mu who is far away from Zhen.

can clearly say that the prince of Xichu came to Daliang to visit his cousin and cousin, and came to "reconcile" with Daliang by the way, which is a little unreasonable, so he can only talk about the eldest princess with a more noble status.

After all, Da Liang and Xichu have not had close contacts over the years, but they are peaceful, and the empress has nothing to do to make trouble for herself before she sent the prince as an envoy?

It's not that I'm worried about Mu Qing, who was injured by someone in the Great Cool a few days ago and couldn't wake up.

The Queen Mother's eyes flashed with a hint of understanding, and she smiled kindly and said: "The eldest princess will stay in Daliang for a few more days, and a welcome banquet will be held later, when the eldest princess can choose a playmate for herself at the banquet, so as not to be bored without her peers." ”

As soon as these words came out, but seeing Xi Chuyueling's eyes lit up, the Queen Mother raised her eyebrows, and then heard the delicate person smile lightly: "I have long heard that there are many talented women in Da Liang, and the younger generations have always wanted to see and understand." ”
