Chapter 45: The Enemy Meets

Early the next morning, when the faint light of the sky penetrated into the room through the screen window, Zhuo Yinfeng sent someone to wake up Jinyu.

Qianqian also got up very early today, and she seems to have some subtle changes to Jinyu, just like the water in March with the warmth of the spring sun, and at the same time with the cold of the inverted spring.

I don't know if it was because of yesterday's conversation, or because she had a good dream last night, and her mood was like a gentle wind in the morning, although it was a cold early winter, it blew into the room with the soft fragrance of incense.

The official uniform had already been prepared, although Qianqian did not personally help Jinyu put it on, but she stood gently and gently on the side and watched Ruxiang help him take care of it.

Such a small action flattered Jinyu, opened her mouth and smiled and showed a mouth full of teeth, even Rue Xiang was staring, looking at her young lady meaningfully, but Qianqian just smiled at the corners of her mouth and did not make any answer.

Zhuo Yinfeng has his own prepared red-covered sedan chair, while Jinyu's official rank is seventh, so he can only walk into the palace and follow Zhuo Yinfeng's sedan chair all the way into the palace.

The long and straight Suzaku Street leads them all the way to the majestic Suzaku Gate, where they pass through the palace gate for routine inspections and walk for a while to Taijoji Temple.

"Do you remember all the way?" Zhuo Yinfeng didn't bother to open the sedan curtain, and Lao Shen's voice came through the sedan chair, "You can come by yourself in the future!" Don't be lazy and do it! ”

"The son-in-law obeys the orders of his father-in-law!" Jinyu bent her waist at ninety degrees and made a big salute. The sound of footsteps in my ears was not hurried to the wind, and before I could look up, the voice had already come: "Master Hou walks slowly!" ”

Jin Yu raised her eyes and saw a middle-aged man with a handsome woman coming towards her, the man was burly, with a square face with thick eyebrows, and a look of anger.

The woman behind her was slender and pale, and a handful of green silk was tied high with a hairband, and there was no decoration around her body.

The scarlet moire embroidered on the black-bottomed robe made the two of them feel depressed and depressed, and they couldn't tolerate a trace of intimacy.

"It turned out to be Lord Chai Liechai!" Zhuo Yinfeng opened the curtain at this time, and asked with a lukewarm smile, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"After the court, the prince is invited!" Chai Lie said lightly, but his eyes glanced at Jin Yu, who was almost turned into a stone sculpture on the side, "Presumably this must be your son-in-law!" This dress up is really dignified! ”

"Humph! This is not thanks to you, Lord Chai! It was not far from the Taiji Palace of the discussion, and Zhuo Yinfeng was too lazy to sit in the sedan chair again, waved his hand, and the sedan chair man retreated with interest.

"I haven't seen Lord Ice Gate Chai yet!" Zhuo Yinfeng scolded softly.

Jinyu's body shook as if he had woken up from petrification, and bowed his hand, but his body was tense and stiff, a pair of white hands were hard to bulge terrifying green tendons, and the words were even more revealing from under the nine-foot ice, without a trace of temperature: "Taichang Temple Si Le Fang Si Le made Zhuo Jinyu see Lord Chai!" ”

In order to show respect, when Jin Yu raised her head, there was a smile on her lips, but this smile was just the corners of her mouth upturning, but her eyes were empty and free, and she couldn't see a trace of sadness, half surprised.

Chai Lie just smiled indifferently and responded lightly, his eyes wandering over Jinyu. Jin Yu turned sideways and was no longer looking at Chai Lie, he was only afraid that the silver needle on his Feng Chi acupoint would not be able to suppress the surging blood in his heart, so he looked at Shao Sinan behind him.

The face that was as calm as himself was pale, and a pair of phoenix eyes would definitely be beautiful if they contained the tenderness that their daughter's family should have, but these eyes were like frost, so cold that people didn't dare to take a second look.

The drums in the distance sounded, nine long and nine short, which was already urging, which finally made Jinyu breathe a sigh of relief. The time of the early dynasty was coming, and Zhuo Yinfeng Chai Lie did not dare to delay and left quickly.

Jin Yu hid under the palace wall and watched the red and black shadows gradually disappear, and finally seemed to disappear at the end of the narrow world, and hit the thick palace wall with both hands into fists, only to relieve the pain in her heart with severe pain.

That executioner! Two hundred and fifty-eight lives will one day give you your life.

After the early dynasty, the East Palace was busy.

Even though the emperor's health has improved recently, most of the court affairs are still handed over to the prince, and he can only recuperate with peace of mind, so the East Palace is naturally busy.

After the council hall, he came out of a separate room for the prince to rest temporarily, and after the prince's life, Zhuo Yinfeng didn't dare to delay for half a minute, and came over with Chai Lie after the court.

The prince had not yet changed out of his apricot yellow python robe, sat on a mahogany round chair and tasted a cup of tea slowly, until his mouth was moistened, and then said: "I'm really tired from talking all morning!" ”

At a glance, he saw Chai Lie and Zhuo Yinfeng, who had a deferential face, waiting quietly on the side before saying, "Chai Lie, didn't you say that you have something to report to this prince?" ”

"There is an abnormality in Nangong Hou's Mansion!" Chai Lie didn't bend at all, and Zhuo Yinfeng's body on the side of the bluff was shocked.

The prince's face was straight, he put the teacup down, stared at Chai Lie with vicious eyes and said, "Is there news?" ”

Chai Lie didn't hide it at all, and reported all the things that Shao Sinan reported last night.

"It seems that your son-in-law has a lot of background!" The prince twisted his eyebrows with the purple jade ring in his hand and said, "Who will he be?" ”

"But he didn't do anything unusual in the house!" Nangong Hou searched hard from his memory.

"Shao Sinan once met that guy in the deserted garden, and he tried it, but he didn't have any true qi around him, he wasn't a person who practiced martial arts!" Chai Lie shook his head, "So the man in black last night shouldn't be Zhuo Jinyu!" ”

"But he did go out from Nangong Hou! There is no way to doubt this! The prince's eyes were like torches, and the fingers holding the ring unconsciously increased.

"Could it be King Yi?" Zhuo Yinfeng asked tentatively, "On the day when the little girl threw the hydrangea, in addition to Shao Sinan, there was also a mysterious person who appeared. ”

"If it's just to make you ugly, just show it once! Why should he be probing again! The prince's eyebrows were furrowed, a cold light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and his tone became firm, "The only explanation is that the son-in-law in your mansion has an unclear relationship with King Yi!" ”

"That King Yi is too low-level! Inserting a beggar who has a broken household, he doesn't even know martial arts, and the minister feels that it is an eyesore to even take a second look, and it is impossible to find out the news! Zhuo Yinfeng shook his head again and again with a sneer, "This King Yi and the crown prince have been fighting for many years, how come this strategy is getting worse and worse!" ”

"Why not!" The smile on Chai Lie's lips was even stronger, full of sarcasm: "Now it's only going to be as fast as your tongue!" Didn't you and I humiliate you and me when I entered the palace that day? ”

The prince was very happy when he heard this, he snorted twice, his complexion relaxed a lot, and said slowly: "No matter what he wants to do, don't be unclear about the relationship at the moment, just observe secretly and watch out carefully!"

The prince seemed to suddenly remember something, turned his head and said to Zhuo Yinfeng: "It seems that your son-in-law is not suitable to stay in Taichang Temple. But he has just taken office, and he will arouse suspicion if he is discharged immediately, so let him stay in Taichang Temple first, and find a reason to send him to Dali Temple before the New Year's Festival. ”
