Chapter 274: Suspicion

With Zhuqing here, the Queen Mother is likely to live longer, and if Zhuqing is hated by the Wang family because of the relationship between the Queen Mother, not to mention that the Queen Mother is missing a minion of Chu Nian, even the dark Rin who has been giving advice to the Queen Mother to control the Wang family will be more likely to be ignored by the Wang family.

Dark Rin has a good calculation.

However, if Zhu Qing suddenly retreats from his edge at this time, and Chu Nian does something big, the Wang family's attention will soon be diverted, and they will no longer care about the unknown Zhu Qing.

Two of Zhu Qing's apprentices were captured by Dark Rin as hostages, and now the remaining three were taken out of the palace by Chu Nian's means, and the remaining two, Zhukong is the largest, and there was originally a bamboo dew and bamboo sleep above and below, which were the two that were captured by Dark Rin; There is also a bamboo ink row four, she is a delicate-looking girl, but her eyes are always blank, and she doesn't seem to be interested in anything, the youngest is Zhuwu, who is a child, I heard that I was going to leave the palace, and I forgot to ask Chu Nian who he was.

Chu Nian placed the three of them in the Chu family, Zhumo and Zhuwu were handed over to Mei Xiang to take care of, Zhukong's treatment was the best, a best wing room, next to Chu Nian's bedroom, the luxurious furnishings in it were comparable to Chu Nian's room.

Chu Nian also simply assigned him a guard, named San'er, who stayed by his side day and night, for fear that something would go wrong with him.

Zhukong was sincerely afraid, and wanted to refuse, but Chu Nian was an arbitrary person, he didn't let the guard stay in his room, and the guard guarded the door day and night, as long as Zhukong went out, he could see the smiling face, which made Zhukong depressed for a long time.

At night, Chu Nian just came back from Jishitang, a few days ago because he was busy and had not been able to go to Jishitang to reconcile the accounts, fortunately, there was a grandmother to operate, but there was nothing wrong, but the grandmother was lacking in skills, these days are really too tired, Chu Nian took the time to go over to reconcile, and it was also considered to share some for the grandmother.

At this stall, Chu Nian entered the wing room where Zhukong was located, and at this moment, Dark San was guarding the door with a look of hanging, and when he saw Chu Nian, he pretended to be a little serious.

Chu Nian couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "What are you doing in front of me, I won't do anything to you." ”

Dark three hippie smiled and said: "I'm afraid that the lady won't let me see Sister Meixiang again, this is much more serious than His Highness's corporal punishment." ”

Chu Nian smiled helplessly, and turned his eyes to look at the window where the candle was faint, and in the window, Zhukong was holding a book and reading it with relishβ€”if it weren't for Chu Nianwang seeing him take the wrong title, he would really think that he was reading hard in the cold window.

Hooking the corners of his lips slightly, Chu Nian walked into the door: "You are still studying so late, no wonder your body is so weak." ”

Zhukong seemed to have just heard Chu Nian's voice, so he hurriedly raised his head, and when he saw Chu Nian, he smiled a little flatteringly: "Sister Chu Nian, you're back!" ”

Chu Nian smiled, his eyes fell on the book he was still holding, and the corners of his mouth slightly overflowed with a little trace of sarcasm: "I didn't expect that Zhu Qing actually taught you the ability to read words backwards, you are not ordinary at a young age." ”

Zhukong suddenly came back to his senses, looked at the upside-down font in front of him, and suddenly turned red, and put down the book as if embarrassed: "Hehe, he...... I was distracted, so I asked Sister Chu Nian to smile, Sister Chu Nian sat down and rested, and I went to help Sister Chu Nian make a pot of tea. ”

saw Chu Nian waving his hand and said, "I'm here today, I just have something to say to you, you don't have to be busy, sit down." ”

Hearing this, Zhukong's face was stunned for a moment, and then he nodded with a smile: "Yes, if you have anything to say, Sister Chu Nian said it." ”

Seeing Zhukong's seemingly honest look, Chu Nian raised his eyebrows slightly, and after a while, he said slowly: "You also know why your master sent you out, right?" ”

Zhukong's eyes flickered for a moment before he said, "I know, it's because the palace is not safe, and the master is afraid that we will be arrested like the senior brother and the third junior brother." ”

Chu Nian raised his eyes and glanced at Zhukong, and then continued: "I came out in a hurry, I haven't had time to ask your master about the details of your brother's arrest, can you tell me?" ”

The blankness on Zhukong's face was just right, but after a while, his eyes were slightly red, and he almost burst into tears: "The senior brother and the third junior brother didn't go to the palace to wander around, and they didn't come back, I took the fourth senior sister to look for a long time, but I couldn't find out their whereabouts, and then I heard that the master said that they were arrested by bad people." ”

Saying that, he said with a disgruntled face: "The five of us were rescued by Sister Chu Nian at first, and then followed the master, the master gave us a new name, and the five of us are our own brothers and sisters, that villain is really vicious, knowing that the master loves us, he actually used the senior brother and the third junior brother to blackmail the master to betray Sister Chu Nian, fortunately, Sister Chu Nian has insight into the truth, if it is a little later, wouldn't it be for the master to suffer the injustice of that infidelity in vain." ”

Chu Nian raised his eyebrows without a trace, and then nodded slowly: "Well, okay, I know, I will find a way to rescue your senior brother and third junior brother, and when the time comes, I will take your master out of the palace by the way, and I will definitely not let you suffer like this again." ”

This thought flashed in Chu Nian's mind, and then blurted out, Chu Nian raised his eyes and looked at the bamboo sky in front of him as calmly as water.

Zhukong grabbed the corner of his clothes, and said with a smile: "Since Sister Chu Nian helps, I am much more relieved." ”

Chu Nian smiled meaningfully, and then got up and said, "During this time, you stay here honestly first, and when the limelight passes, I will naturally reunite your master and apprentice." ”

Zhukong's eyes flashed slightly and looked at Chu Nian's departing back, but his face suddenly sank, and after a while, he let out a sigh of relief, turned around and walked to the desk, looking at the roll of white paper in front of him, his face was complicated.

And Chu Nian came out of the side room, glanced meaningfully at the dark three on the side, and then turned around and walked towards Mei Xiang's room on the other side.

At this moment, Mei Xiang was very busy, after Xiao Zhu realized that after he arrived at the Chu family, he had a strong curiosity about everything, and pulled Mei Xiang around the entire Chu family for a long time, and only then did he remember to go back to sleep at night, Mei Xiang finally got hot water and prepared to serve Xiao Zhu Wu to sleep, and saw Chu Nian pacing and walking in.

When the little guy saw Chu Nian, he immediately greeted him happily: "Sister palace maid, why do you want to go to the palace to be a palace maid when your family is so rich?" ”

Chu Nian smiled a little helplessly, bent down and rubbed the little guy's head, and said, "Because I like Princess Mingyue, I can help her do things?" ”

The little guy was obviously not satisfied with Chu Nian's answer, but pouted and said, "Okay, then do you like me?" ”

"I like it, that's why I brought you back."

With this answer, the little guy's mood was obviously a few degrees better, and Chu Nianfang smiled and said, "You go to wash a fragrant fragrance with Sister Meixiang, and then go to bed early, will Sister take you out to play tomorrow?" ”

"Okay-" The little guy was coaxed to be happy, Mei Xiang's work was finally able to start smoothly, and he was about to turn his eyes and ask Chu Nian why he hadn't slept yet, but he saw Chu Nian's eyes fall on Zhumo by the window, and Zhumo, who was reading, seemed to feel Chu Nian's gaze, and raised his head slowly, his face remained unchanged, like a copy of Zhuqing-of course, before he lost his apprentice.

Chu Nian took a few steps forward and said with a slight smile: "Are you tired after reading the book for so long?" Shall I take you for some snacks? ”

Zhu Mo silently glanced back at his little junior brother, turned his eyes, and nodded silently.

Chu Nian turned around and walked out of the door, Zhu Mo followed, the two of them went straight to the pavilion in the courtyard one after the other, a few maids had already set up snacks and tea, Chu Nian's pace accelerated, Zhu Mo also accelerated, Chu Nian's pace slowed down, Zhu Mo also slowed down, this girl was like a tail following Chu Nian, and Chu Nian who walked in front couldn't cry or laugh.

Finally persuaded her to sit down on the table, Chu Nian put a piece of pastry in front of Zhumo: "You taste this first, whether it suits your appetite." ”

Zhu Mo stared at Chu Nian's outstretched hand for a long time, and then took the pastry from Chu Nian's hand, carefully stuffed it into his mouth, still expressionless, until a whole piece of pastry was finished, he turned his gaze to another plate of pastries, swallowed his saliva silently, but never reached out to grab it.

Chu Nian smiled dumbly, if he really stayed with someone for a long time, he was affected by someone, Chu Nian stretched out his hand and pushed the plate of pastries in front of Zhu Mo, before he said: "It's all yours, eat, if you choke, drink some tea." ”

After hearing Chu Nian's words, Zhumo began to move, this girl had an amazing appetite, and after a while, the two plates of pastries were almost at the bottom, and Chu Nian smiled lightly and stepped into the topic: "I just want to ask about the disappearance of your two senior brothers today." ”

Zhu Mo's hand that was originally touching the pastry paused, and slowly looked up at Chu Nian, his eyes flashing with a little doubt.

Chu Nian frowned: "You don't know? ”

Hearing this, Zhumo shook his head lightly, and then opened his mouth and said: "The senior brothers haven't come back for a while, and I was also worried, so I asked the master, and the master said that the senior brothers were released out of the palace to practice, and I thought that Sister Chu Nian took us out of the palace for the sake of training." ”

Hearing this, Chu Nian's eyes suddenly sank, Zhumo, this kid doesn't look like a liar, the person who lies is Zhukong?

Sure enough, her hunch was right...... Chu Nian's eyes flickered a little, nodded and said, "There is nothing else to do, you continue to eat, don't worry about your senior brother, I will find a way." ”

Hearing this, as if she had been ordered by the mechanism, Zhumo continued to stuff the pastry into her mouth, but this time it was obvious that she was absent-minded.

After eating the pastry, Zhumo was sent back to the room, and Chu Nian went back to his room, lying on the soft collapse, but he couldn't sleep anyway.

At first, when Zhu Qing said that his apprentice was captured, Chu Nian had some doubts in his heart, it stands to reason that in such a heavily guarded place as the palace, it is not convenient for Dark Rin to attack Zhu Qing, and those two children have already had their minds, so that they will not be caught in the palace without a trace of movement - there will be a large group of people patrolling in the palace every half a pillar of incense, if you want to arrest people under these well-trained Imperial Forest Army, even Dark Rin will not be easy.

If so, there is only one possibility, the two children were cheated.

But the two children are so old, it is impossible not to know that Dark Rin is their master's enemy......
