So the king of Huainan wants to use the power of this organization to intervene in the court disputes?

Chu Nian couldn't help frowning, if "Qinghe" really had the heart to intervene in the court dispute in Da Liang, wouldn't it be a big trouble? Mo said how much help such an organization would bring to the King of Huainan, I am afraid that even the Wang family, which is deeply rooted in the capital, will not be able to compete with the King of Huainan. From this point of view, it is reasonable that Wang Zixuan is so interested in "Qinghe".

"Nian'er, look at this."

Old Man Chen took down a dusty book from the bookshelf, flipped through it for a while, and then stopped, and when he handed it to Chu Nian again, a token was drawn on the page.

Chu Nianhu looked at Old Man Chen suspiciously, "Grandpa, what is this?" ”

"When the previous dynasty opened the country, a token was left, and this token could command the entire martial arts, and this token disappeared with the fall of the previous dynasty, and it is rumored that the location of this token is now only known to the Daliang royal family, and this Qinghe organization had the intention of intervening in the martial arts at the beginning of its establishment, but was blocked back by those old families in the martial arts, where did you know about Qinghe?"

Seeing that Old Man Chen was looking at him with a serious face, Chu Nian also knew the seriousness of the matter, "Qinghe" first appeared in front of Chu Nian's eyes in the hands of the organization that resold children, the white-faced scholar thought that he was Qinghe's person, and the old man who could do illusions again appeared, this old man performed illusions in public, obviously to attract attention, and then enter the court.

What they wanted was a token that was enough to command the martial arts.

They must stop their plan, she doesn't believe that this ambition is so big that the organization that wants to order the martial arts will give up the Daliang Dynasty that is at their fingertips, but she is afraid that when the king of Huainan really gets the throne, he will also be played by "Qinghe" between applause, and at that time, not only Da Liang, but also Western Chu and barbarians, since people have ambitions, they will never give up easily.

They had to find the token in the "Qinghe" and protect it.

Thinking of this, Chu Nian nodded slightly towards the suspicious old man Chen and said, "Thank you grandfather for your advice, it's getting late, grandpa rests early, Nian'er still has some important things." ”

After saying that, she turned around and walked towards Dark San, Old Man Chen saw that she was riding a man as a horse, and his face suddenly turned purple, "Stinky girl!" The Chu family is not far away! You give me an honest walk back! ”

Chu Nian's figure was stiff when he was about to "get on the horse", so he had to sigh helplessly and said, "Dark three, let's go back for a walk." ”

……

"Tokens?" Ming Xiu frowned and looked at Chu Nian, who was drinking tea by himself, "Lone has never heard my father mention any tokens. ”

Chu Nian's eyes tightened, and his grandfather said that this token was passed down from generation to generation by the Daliang Imperial Family, if the emperor didn't have it in his hand, wouldn't it be in the Queen Mother's place? But the Queen Mother is a person with a desire for profit, and with such treasures in her hands, how can she still be afraid of the King of Huainan? So if neither the emperor nor the queen mother have this token in their hands, where can this token be?

At this moment, Ming Xiu had already heard the importance of this token from Dark San, and when he saw Chu Nian's indulgent eyes at this moment, he also frowned deeply and said, "When Gu goes back to investigate, don't be anxious." ”

Chu Nian pondered for a while before nodding and saying, "Your Highness, be careful, don't startle the snake." ”

In the early morning of the next day, the king of Huainan sent someone to send a message, saying that the seven-day sacrifice of the "old marquis" had passed, and on the occasion of the birthday banquet of the king of Huainan, the new Zhenninghou and the county lord of Wushuang were specially invited to the mansion to attend the banquet.

At this time, Chu Yuanlang was still attending the gathering between ministers for the first time as Zhen Ninghou, and he was wearing a set of ink-colored robes specially selected by the Liu family for him, so his young face looked a little more stable, if there was no trace of tension that could not be concealed, he would have the appearance of a complete Zhen Ninghou.

The two sisters and brothers sat in the carriage opposite each other, Chu Nian looked at the blush on Chu Yuanlang's face, Shuer smiled, this laughter was so hot that Chu Yuanlang became more and more shy, so he had to pretend to be serious with a straight face, but the words he said stumbled: "Three...... Third sister, what are you laughing at! ”

Chu Nian had a smile on his face, shook his head and said, "My younger brother has also grown up and can be on his own, I will find you a good daughter-in-law to take care of you in the coming year, and my sister will have no regrets in this life." ”

Chu Nian said this from the heart, since the first time he saw this younger brother, Chu Nian had a trace of extraordinary thoughts in his heart, and later this guy who was obviously younger than himself repeatedly did the appearance of "brother", which also made Chu Nian feel warm for the first time since he was reborn, so he loved this younger brother more and more, and now seeing that he finally sat in the position of Zhen Ninghou, Chu Nian still had the selfish intention to protect him after all.

Although Chu Yuanlang was not as innocent and kind as he seemed, at least the Liu family had taught him what was right and what was wrong, and he was still young, Chu Nian always felt that he should take good care of this younger brother.

Seeing the ridicule in Chu Nian's eyes, Chu Yuanlang's face turned red again, and at the end, he remembered something and said, "Third sister, this is the first time I have participated in this kind of party, is there anything I need to pay attention to?" ”

Chu Nian's eyes flashed slightly, she could understand Chu Yuanlang's nervousness, although he was still young, he was proficient in human affairs, in the first time he was socializing with those old foxes, thinking that she would be nervous when she met the emperor for the first time when she was very young, but then she saw her father socialize with the old fox, so she naturally got used to it. This Chu Yuanlang has just returned from the southwest, and Chu Hezhou doesn't care about him, so Chu Yuanlang naturally hasn't had these exercises.

After a while, Chu Nian turned his head to look out the window, and said in a faint voice: "Don't be nervous, according to your usual communication methods, there is me in everything." ”

When the words fell, I saw that Chu Yuanlang's face soothed a little, and the third sister's words were like a reassuring pill, no matter when, it could calm his restless heart.

Seeing Chu Yuanlang's relaxed expression after a moment, a trace of appreciation flashed in Chu Nian's eyes. The carriage walked for a short time, and then arrived at the Huainan Palace.

At this moment, the Huainan Wangfu was full of people, except for those who were invited by the King of Huainan, many courtiers came uninvited, and for a while, the Huainan King's courtyard in Kyoto suddenly became lively.

A small servant greeted Chu Nian and Chu Yuanlang and got out of the car, and the little guy walked in front of him, and said: "I have seen the Hou Ye, the unequaled county lord, now there are too many guests, the prince is busy in the front hall, and specially instructed the little one to apologize to the two, please take a break in the wing, and the prince will come to entertain after a while." ”

Chu Yuanlang nodded decently, gave a few taels of silver, and saw the little guy leave with a smile.

At this time, Chu Nian walked around in this wing, only to see that the furnishings of this wing room were very simple, only a mahogany table, a mahogany cabinet, three or two seats, three or five vases, but it was a soft collapse decoration that was particularly chic, on top of the soft collapse was a mattress made of wool for unknown reasons, which was very soft to the touch, and on the edge of the soft collapse was the mahogany cabinet, Chu Nian felt a strange feeling in her heart, and before Chu Yuanlang could react, she had already reached out and pulled it away.

Chu Yuanlang saw his sister's reckless behavior and was about to stop it, but when he saw the things in the open cabinet, his face was stunned.

Chu Nian on the side of the cabinet sneered, this King of Huainan is really good at playing, the things in this cabinet are both whips and candles, not to mention Chu Nian, even Chu Yuanlang's face turned red.

Chu Yuanlang quickly turned his head away, "Third sister, don't look, close the door of the cabinet quickly." ”

Chu Nian slowly closed the door of the cabinet, and then understood what this simplely furnished wing room was used for, King Huainan likes to redeem women from the Qinglou, and the palace is full of concubines, and if he wants to come to the "fresh goods" on weekdays, he should spend the night here first. But after thinking about it, it makes people think that this room is extremely filthy, and even the air has an inexplicable stench.

"Going for a walk?"

Chu Nian looked at Chu Yuanlang, whose face was flushed, sarcastically, "It's obvious that he is already the marquis of Zhenning Houfu, and he is so easy to be shy, if he lets people know, he won't laugh at you." ”

Chu Yuanlang glared at her, "Third sister, you will make fun of me!" ”

The two sisters and brothers walked out of the wing room playfully, and when they arrived in the yard, they took a few breaths of fresh air, but they got lost in the fight, this Huainan Mansion is also big, but the difference between the east and the west, and many people who came and went around Fang Cai disappeared in an instant.

Chu Yuanlang was looking at the similar scenery around him blankly, and saw Chu Nian rubbing his eyebrows and said: "You go to the north, I go to the south to see if I can find someone, as a guest, it is really rude not to wait for the host honestly." ”

Hearing this, Chu Yuanlang nodded and headed towards the north, Chu Nian called the secret guard who had been silently following the wall, "Do you remember the road?" ”

Several secret guards shook their heads in unison, and secretly shook their wit and said, "Let's go to the roof and take a look, we can probably find the way." ”

Chu Nian agreed, and saw him jump, but his face was startled as if he had seen something, and he fell suddenly, "Third lady, Yuanlang is in danger!" ”

Chu Nian's face was stunned, so he waved his hand and motioned for a few of them to retreat first, at this moment, the Huainan Palace, it is better not to let people see the good of the secret guards, otherwise the suspicious character of the Huainan King, I am afraid that I will doubt her. Immediately, she followed the direction of the dark three fingers, while suspecting in her heart, this is the Huainan Palace, who can be here to make things difficult and peaceful?

When she arrived, there was only a piece of jade pendant left on the ground, Chu Nian recognized that it was Chu Yuanlang's, and immediately raised his eyes to search around, but there was no trace of Chu Yuanlang. ”

Pulled by Chu Nian, the subordinate shook his head blankly, "The slave maid has just passed through this place, and she hasn't seen Zhen Ninghou, what is the matter with the county lord?" ”

Chu Nian frowned, let go of the hand that was pulling the sleeve of the man's shirt and said, "There is no banquet either?" ”

"The slave maid just came over there, and there is no young marquis."

Hearing this, Chu Nian's expression tightened, Chu Yuanlang left her with just a cup of tea, presumably someone who came had already known that there was a secret guard by her side, so he deliberately waited until she was separated from Chu Yuanlang before making a move. "Please ask King Huainan to help find Zhenninghou, your mansion is too big, and I was separated from Zhenninghou just now."
