Seeing that Chu Nian suddenly exuded an inexplicable momentum, the dark three body trembled, and then lowered his head, completely not daring to look up at that cold face again: "The old master of the Tao family is sick, and he is looking for the young head of the family to inherit the position of the head of the family." ”

Chu Nian frowned, and then listened to the dark three dare not conceal it and continued: "It is said that the young family master was sent out in order to find the token that was dominated by the royal family, but he didn't want to, out of the Tao family, the young family master cut off the connection with the family, and now it has been three years. ”

"What's more, a few days ago, the Moon Capture Villa just took advantage of the situation and destroyed a branch of the Tao family."

Chu Nian was pacing in the house, Tao Jinyan turned out to be the young head of the Tao family? Listening to his hostility towards the Tao family, she thought that he was just a member of the Tao family, and he hated his family so much because he was harshly criticized, but she didn't expect him to be the young head of the family.

He came to the capital to investigate the token intended to control the martial arts, so the purpose of establishing the intelligence organization was also to find out the whereabouts of the token, and he approached her to find the token......

The last time she begged her in every possible way to stuff him into the palace test of the election court Chuan Changshi, it was also to be able to enter the palace, but when Wang Zixuan angrily drove him out of the palace, he took the opportunity to find out the palace thoroughly, just to be able to take out the token smoothly when he found it.

Chu Nianrin, in this way, everything makes sense, she still underestimated Tao Jinyan.

Then why did Ming Xiu say that he would help her eradicate the Moon Capture Villa? Although from the perspective of the token, Tao Jinyan did have to ask for help from her, the unequaled county lord who had the right to enter and leave the palace, but it would not be for her to call her family to fight openly with the forces of the rivers and lakes such as the Moon Capture Villa......

Besides, hasn't Tao Jinyan already broken with the Tao family? What does Ming Xiu mean?

Moon Lodge ...... Chu Nian's eyes sank, and he suddenly understood what Ming Xiu meant, the news that the Tao family was separated only a few days ago was destroyed by the Moon Villa could not be known with Tao Jinyan's ability, and now although Tao Jinyan broke with the Tao family, it was still the Tao family in the end, and if something happened to the Tao family, it was impossible for him to sit idly by.

Tao Jinyan's stubborn expression suddenly appeared in front of him, and Chu Nian suddenly understood.

If she asked Tao Jinyan to help destroy the Moon Capture Villa now, it would be to give Tao Jinyan a reason to go back and make peace with the Tao family, Ming Xiu must have investigated something from Tao Jinyan, otherwise it would not be so easy to understand Tao Jinyan's character.

I ran away from home because of a quarrel with my family - I heard that there was an accident at home and wanted to go home to help, but I was arrogant and refused to go back. I didn't expect such an unfathomable Mr. Jinyan to be such a child's temper.

Chu Nian couldn't help but sneer.

After Dark San finished speaking, he was waiting for his wife to reply, and he couldn't wait for Chu Nian's voice for a long time, so he had to look up cautiously, but when he saw Chu Nian, who couldn't help but laugh, he suddenly became suspicious.

"Lady? What's wrong with you? ”

Chu Nian laughed enough, and then glanced at Dark San, "Well, okay, you did a good job, I'll give Mei Xiang a holiday tomorrow, you guys go out to play." ”

Dark San's face suddenly turned happy, but he had a bitter face as if he remembered something: "Lady, what is the use of you giving Mei Xiang a holiday, if you don't give me a holiday." ”

Chu Nian raised his eyebrows, "Who are you?" ”

Dark San looked at Chu Nian for some reason, and it took a long time to understand the meaning of her words, the prince said that he was his own person, so Chu Nian still had to report to the prince with Dark Three, so Dark Three was still the prince's person.

She is giving the dark three faces, giving Mei Xiang a holiday, whether the dark three has a holiday or not is not something she Chu Nian can manage!

At this moment, Dark San just wanted to look at the sky with tears, and he regretted that he got the news and went to report Ming Xiu's decision first, Your Highness, you are too tricky!

……

On the second day of breakfast, Zhu's mother prepared a few side dishes and porridge, as well as two white steamed buns, Chu Nian ate slowly and methodically, but Mei Xiang, who was waiting on the side, was full of anxiety.

Chu Nian looked up at her funny: "If you are in a hurry to go on a date with Dark San, go first, I have Mother Zhu and Auntie here." ”

Seeing that she still had the heart to tease, Mei Xiang's face turned red, and she said angrily: "Lady! I'm not in a hurry for this! ”

Chu Nian lowered his eyes and immersed himself in the delicious breakfast, and Mother Zhu's craftsmanship seemed to be getting better and better, "Then what are you anxious about?" ”

"The Queen Mother is going to choose a concubine for the crown prince in the afternoon, why don't you be in a hurry at all, in case...... What if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can't cope? ”

Slowly stuffed a small piece of steamed bun into his mouth, mixed a mouthful of porridge and swallowed it, Chu Niancai smacked his lips and said: "He agreed, then what can I do to rush into the palace and not let the Queen Mother choose a concubine for him?" ”

Chu Nian sneered: "The Queen Mother's golden mouth and jade words, where is it so easy to take back your fate." ”

Mei Xiang was speechless, her small eyes were red, "Then the lady can only watch the prince marry someone else?" ”

Chu Nian rolled his eyes, if Ming Xiu could accept the Queen Mother's move of stretching her tentacles to him so easily, he wouldn't be called Ming Xiu.

At this time, Zhu's mother came in from outside: "Lady, the Queen Mother sent someone to invite." ”

Chu Nian frowned and glanced at the unfinished porridge, "So early?" ”

Mother Zhu looked a little dazed: "The person who came only said that the Queen Mother had summoned her, and nothing else was said." ”

Seeing this, Chu Nian had no choice but to stand up, helplessly cleaning her hands, too, since Ming Xiu is not a fool, the connection between her and the Queen Mother will inevitably be ambiguous, I am afraid that this trip, the Queen Mother wants her position, otherwise the Queen Mother will not be able to continue to use Zhuqing's medicine with confidence.

……

When Chu Nian arrived at Cining Palace, the Queen Mother sat on the phoenix chair to receive her for the first time since she took Zhuqing's medicine, and there was still tea and melons that had not changed for thousands of years.

Fortunately, Chu Nian's skills have returned to the peak of his previous life, and now he will not feel numb in his legs if he kneels for an hour in his physical state, otherwise he would have fainted if he knelt for an hour with his weak body before.

The Queen Mother drank a sip of warm tea unhurriedly before she spoke: "Get up." ”

Chu Nian did not doubt that there was him, he got up and stood quietly, but he didn't raise his head, and the Queen Mother said: "Do you know what happened when the mourning family called you here today?" ”

Hearing this, Chu Nian lowered his head and said: "The courtiers are dull, and I hope that the Queen Mother will make it clear." ”

The Queen Mother snorted coldly, "The name of the Wushuang County Lord is full of great coldness, how can you not know?" ”

Chu Nian didn't plan to answer the Queen Mother's words, this was a pit dug by the Queen Mother, and when she answered, it was equivalent to preparing to make her position clear.

Now that Ming Xiu is full-fledged, the Queen Mother just wants to test how many people support Ming Xiu behind him, so that he has the courage to jump out and confront the Queen Mother and the Wang family.

For example, now, the Queen Mother wants to know who Chu Nian is on.

Seeing that Chu Nian had not spoken, the Queen Mother was not impatient, but said slowly: "Do you think the prince will be a Ming monarch in the future?" ”

Chu Nian lowered his eyes and arched his hand: "Empress Dowager Qi, the emperor is now in good health, whether the prince is a prince or not, there is no need to worry." ”

Looking at Chu Nian playing Tai Chi, the Queen Mother sneered, "Whether he is Mingjun or not, of course the mourning family doesn't care, if not, the mourning family will find a way to replace him." ”

If it's not an obedient master, the puppet can be replaced by another one.

Hearing the threat in the Queen Mother's words, Chu Nian also understood that it seemed that the Queen Mother was now classifying her as a person from the Ming Xiu faction. She doesn't need to defend herself, the Queen Mother has so many suspicious people, and she will only get darker and darker.

At this time, a grandmother walked in from outside, "Niangniang, Zhuqing Daoist has something to report." ”

The Queen Mother glanced at Chu Nian, "Please." ”

I saw Zhu Qing slowly entering from outside the hall, still wearing a plain white robe, without a single ornament on his head, his face was paralyzed, and his lips were cold, and when he passed by Chu Nian's side, he nodded slightly as a greeting, and then bowed his hand to the Queen Mother and said: "Queen Mother, Poor Dao has been living in the palace for a long time, and the master wrote the day before yesterday, saying that he wanted Poor Dao to return." ”

The Queen Mother's expression froze, and her eyes looked at Chu Nian fiercely, she had only taken half of the course of treatment with this pill now, and the youth she wanted had only recovered a little bit of her body, so Chu Nian would dare to take Zhuqing away at this time?

This stinky girl is decided, she won't let Zhuqing go?

Chu Nian raised his eyes, calmly looked at the Queen Mother, and took the uncertainty in the Queen Mother's eyes into his eyes.

Zhu Qing on the side saw that the queen was not kind to look at Chu Nian, and then said: "Queen Mother, this is the meaning of the poor Dao herself, and it has nothing to do with others. ”

The Queen Mother frowned and looked at Zhu Qing, what do you mean?

Scold! I'm afraid that Chu Nian has found a bargaining chip that can threaten her! With Zhuqing here, she didn't dare to do anything to Ming Xiu, if something happened to Ming Xiu now, with Zhuqing's ability, this palace would not be able to trap a Zhuqing who was so big that he could rejuvenate people!

But at least for now...... The Queen Mother can't let Zhuqing leave, otherwise half of her youth will be lost.

The Queen Mother held back her anger, breathed a long sigh of relief, and forced out a smile and said: "Nian'er, don't stay with the Taoist soon, you have the most friendship with the Taoist Chief." ”

The word "friendship" bit very hard, Chu Nian raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect Zhu Qing to take it upon himself to help her resolve the crisis, it seems that after staying in the palace these days, Zhu Qing has become smarter.

Wuxin Daoist sent her a letter a few days ago to ask about Zhu Qing's condition, telling Zhu Qing not to go back in a hurry, and it was not too late to go back when she finished what she was going to do, how could he send a letter to Zhu Qing to ask him to go back, it was just an excuse for Zhu Qing to threaten the Queen Mother.

But apparently Zhuqing's threat worked.

Chu Nian hooked his lips, glanced at Zhu Qing appreciatively, and said pretendingly: "In my opinion, Daoist Zhuqing still stays for a few more days, as for Daoist Wuxin, I will help Daoist Zhuqing talk about it." ”

Since then, the Queen Mother has completely understood, where is Chu Nian's friendship that Zhu Qing saved her life? This damn girl is clearly premeditated! But now that the medicine that Zhu Qing gave her has worked, Chu Nian's excuses back then are irrelevant!

Okay, so you can count her so early? Scold! When she has been in the harem for so many years, is it in vain?

The Queen Mother sneered secretly, only to see Zhu Qing slowly nodding and agreeing, sending Zhu Qing back, the Queen Mother choked on a fake smile and looked at Chu Nian and said: "Nian'er, don't be in a hurry to go back, today's flower viewing party, you can also go and have a good time, just right, only Ming Xiu accompanies the princess, and the mourning family is not at ease." ”

Chu Nian frowned secretly, the Queen Mother now knows that she is threatening herself, and it is impossible to make her feel better easily, today's flower viewing party was originally prepared for Ming Xiu's selection of concubines, and the Queen Mother asked her to go, what kind of calculation is this?
