Chapter Twenty-Eight: Happiness
At night, the weather was warm in early spring, but Zhu's mother still didn't dare to slack off, and the whole vanilla house brazier was vigorous, as if it was as warm as a summer night.
Chu Nian sat down by the window, silently looking at the crescent moon that was gradually hanging in the sky not far away, and the corners of his mouth were dyed with a subtle smile.
"Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here, why do you keep peeping on the beams of the house?"
As soon as the words fell, a figure fell to the ground suddenly, kicking up a trace of dust. He roasted his hands next to the brazier before standing on Chu Nian's side.
"Did you see Liu Qi?"
Chu Nian slowly made a pot of tea, "Why does Your Highness bother to ask?" Didn't His Highness arrange it? ”
The tall man seemed to frown, still staring at the distance, as if he had emptied his mind.
"Say, in the middle of the night, what are you doing to tell the dark three links to pass on the lonely?"
Chu Nian took a sip of the teacup, and looked sideways, the handsome face was radiating a clear glow under a piece of moonlight.
The stars in her eyes burned, "I just want to see Your Highness, can't you?" ”
Ming Xiu's face froze, and then his face disappeared into a shadow, leaving only a pair of cold eyes staring at Chu Nian, and his thin lips hooked up a playful smile.
"Then why didn't you take a shower today?"
This time, Chu Nian's face froze, and even though she became popular, she drank all the tea in her cup with some anger, her only failure in the matter of power was Shen Dui! But now that he is in front of Ming Xiu, the battle of tongues is rarely won!
A chuckle came from the shadows, "You're not a useless person, if you have something to say, talk quickly." ”
Chu Nian was angry, but he also remembered what was going on, and his complexion returned in a blink of an eye, "If it is convenient for Your Highness, it is better for the people in the prison to watch it closely, and it is better to replace the jailers with your own people." ”
The cold eyes suddenly narrowed. "How many people can you use as you please?"
Expecting that he would not easily agree to use his people, Chu Nian was not angry, and only slowly filled the teacup again.
"Does Your Highness think that General Luo will really let Shiro stay in prison for too long?"
If the old butcher was really willing, the Wu family would not have fallen into such a situation!
"That's your business, Lone told you a long time ago, if you can't bring down the General's Mansion, your life, Lone can easily take it back."
Chu Nian chuckled, "Then Your Highness had better wipe out my entire Vanilla Residence, or the entire Zhenning Hou Mansion, which is more conservative." ”
Ming Xiu was unexpectedly lifeless, only to see that his bright eyes flickered slightly, and he came out of the darkness with a stiff smile on the corner of his mouth.
"You are ruthless, but you have to remember that today's events will not be easily forgotten."
With that, he rolled over, leaving nothing in his wake.
Chu Nian slowly followed him, "Your Highness must know that if General Luo succeeds, I'm afraid everything we did before will be wasted." ”
The word "we" was bitten extremely hard by Chu Nian, and the figure paused in mid-air for a moment, then disappeared into darkness, and the surroundings returned to silence.
Dark Three and Dark Four hid in the tree and looked at the figure of their master who left angrily, glanced at each other, sighed secretly, and went away.
……
On the fifth watch, the prison of the government office was heavily guarded, and Luo Shilang was lying on a straw mat and sleeping soundly.
He has been here for a few days, and because of General Luo's face, the food and drink he is no worse than outside, but unfortunately there is no beautiful little lady to give him pleasure, which makes him uncomfortable.
At this moment, two figures, one tall and one short, appeared at the door of the cell, and the guards around them closed their eyes and pretended to be asleep.
The top has already said hello, and besides, the children of rich and noble families, where are there a few who have been holding back in this kind of place for more than half a month?
But when they closed their eyes, two other people dressed in black suddenly appeared behind the two of them, and in the blink of an eye, the four of them disappeared together.
At the same time, Chu Nian slept soundly, but she heard a thin and loose voice in her ears, she was already vigilant, even if she was extremely sleepy, she was only a light sleep, and at this time, she easily opened her eyes.
In the darkness, the other two were carrying the other two and threw them on the ground, the two seemed to have their mouths blocked, and their eyes widened and looked at everything in front of them in horror, but they couldn't make a sound.
Chu Nian sat up and looked at the dark three and four dissatisfiedly through the moonlight outside the window.
"What is this doing, disturbing dreams in the middle of the night."
Dark San's voice sounded more like schadenfreude, "Didn't you tell His Highness to look at Luo Shilang?" Just now, His Highness ordered to send these two people to you as soon as possible. ”
Chu Nian's hand rubbing his eyes froze, and his heart was a little annoyed.
He said he took revenge, that's how he took revenge? It's really a child's trick!
"Hmph, you guys take people out first, I want to change clothes!"
Dark San's schadenfreude became more and more obvious, "Yes, three ladies." ”
After changing clothes and lighting a candle, Chu Nian recruited Dark Three and Dark Four to bring people in, and at this moment, Mei Xiang, who was keeping vigil outside, was also woken up, standing by Chu Nian's side sleepily, seeing Dark Three, his eyes paused, and he turned his head away.
Chu Nian secretly laughed, and turned his eyes to look at the two people who were secretly escorted, "Who are you?" ”
The two of them trembled and knelt on the ground, and the Sebu in his mouth was pulled out by the Dark Trinity.
"Who are you?" The taller one spoke boldly, "We are from the General's Mansion, and we tell you that if you spoil the general's good deeds, you won't have your good fruit to eat in the future!" ”
The woman in front of her looks a little familiar, although her appearance can be regarded as a country and a city, but she is very weak and has no momentum, so she is not a good one.
Chu Nian narrowed his eyes and looked at him, and smiled indifferently: "Why did the people from the General's Mansion appear in the prison?" ”
Although we already know their purpose, we should make their mouths softer, so as not to be useless in the future.
"Of course it's to save ......" The tall man felt that Chu Nian didn't look like someone who dared to go against the General's Mansion, so he was ready to blurt out his purpose, and by the way, he scared this weak little girl, completely forgetting how he was caught, or the person next to him was smarter, and as soon as the words came out, his tongue was covered.
"Won't tell?"
Chu Nian glanced at Dark Three with side eyes, and Dark Three immediately rubbed his palms happily.
"Brothers? Let me enjoy the blessings? ”
The two of them wanted to say something, but they were secretly gagged, and they fled into the night with one left and one right.
Only then did the two of them understand that the woman didn't want to hear what they said about the truth, she just wanted them to tell it, and they couldn't help but complain.
Chu Nian rubbed her brows a little tiredly, hoping that the medicine that Auntie made yesterday to torture people would be useful, I am afraid that in a few days, these two people will come in handy, she doesn't want to, after making so many preparations, she will mess up her hands and feet when she is in battle.
Mei Xiang saw that she was still sleepy, and immediately stepped forward and hugged her: "Lady, let's sleep for a while, this dark three is really true, this time, and I still bother the lady for this little thing." ”
Chu Nian waved his hand, "It's okay, what's going on with Xiao Chen's side?" ”
These days, the changes from the lady are too great, and it is a counterattack to the point that Xiao Chen's family is not allowed to leave the ancestral hall, and it is to cooperate with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to put Luo Shilang in prison, Mei Xiang couldn't accept it at first, but gradually, she also accepted it, just as the third lady was suddenly opened, and it was not in vain that Mrs. worked hard to save the life of the third lady, and her heart was moved, but she was more emotional.
Mei Xiang now just wants to help the third lady become stronger, and it is not in vain that the former wife took care of herself, but now that she thinks of Xiao Chen, she still hates the root of her teeth, and supports the third lady to deal with Xiao Chen, at this moment, when she heard Chu Nian mention Xiao Chen, she grinded her teeth and said: "There has been no movement for a while recently, Chun Tao has been staring closely, and she will say it as soon as there is a disturbance." ”
"Whew-" With a long sigh of relief, Chu Niancai continued: "Brother Chun Tao's illness, what's wrong?" ”
All the subordinates who have entered the Chu family, their family conditions are registered, and there is no need to bother to investigate, Chu Nian asked the housekeeper, and he knew all the situations in Chuntao's family.
Chun Tao's younger brother is frail and sick all the year round, and there is really no silver money in the family, so he sold Chun Tao into the Chu family, and it is precisely because of this that Chun Tao will be greedy for the few silver coins of the Chu Qin family, which can be regarded as a hard life.
Since she has decided to use Chun Tao, Chun Tao must be a credible person, she can threaten the lives of Chun Tao's family, and so can others. Therefore, she must protect them, all the people who worship under her command, she thinks that they have no worries, they must protect their families.
"Since Grandma prescribed medicine to the child, the child's condition has been much better."
Chu Nian nodded lightly, a slight light flashed in his eyes, "I called other people to keep vigil, you also go to rest and rest, tomorrow we should go to see grandpa." ”
Her grandfather served as the secretary and supervisor of the dynasty, Chu Nian still had some impression of this stubborn old man, when the Su family was framed, he rarely jumped out to correct the name of the Su family, but unfortunately the literati in addition to waving pen and ink to make people jealous, in the court is still few people care, he jumped out and said a few words, and soon was drowned in the impeachment of the Su family.
Since then, the old man has no intention of participating in the struggle in the court, and every day he goes to the court, he just goes through the motions, and soon loses his sacred heart, but this old man has been sitting in the position of secretary and supervisor for so many years, and there are many disciples under him, and no one dares to touch him for the time being.
The next morning, after breakfast, Chu Nian led Mei Xiang to Chen's house, since the Su family was destroyed, the Chen family was really a door, the doorkeeper saw the strange young lady in front of him, but he was quite surprised, and when Chu Nian reported his name, he hurriedly returned to the door to report.
The one who came out to greet Chu Nian was still Chu Nian's aunt, Mrs. Chen.
Seeing Chu Nian intact, Mrs. Chen's hanging heart finally fell, and she hurriedly greeted Chu Nian into the inner hall, "You are back, come into the house, your grandfather and your uncle are in the morning court at this time, and it is estimated that it is time to come back, if they see you, the two of them may not be happy." ”
Chu Nian's heart warmed up a little, now, she is Su Nian and Chu Nian, Su Nian's revenge will be avenged, and Chu Nian's revenge will be the same, but in comparison, the warmth of family affection in the past life and this life is quite a lot.
