The next day, Gu Junyan came to Su Mansion early in the morning, after all, he rarely had a reason to come to Su Yun, so he cherished it very much.

In the study, Su Zhan and Gu Junyan sat side by side, looking up at Su Yunlai together, waiting for her to come up with an idea.

"Chen Jiang didn't return overnight, the fourth prince should already know that the assassination failed, I'm afraid it won't be long before he comes to the door to ask for someone." Gu Junyan said.

Su Zhan frowned: "At that time, even if we have evidence to prove that Chen Jiang assassinated Su Ying, if the fourth prince insists on taking him back and disposing of it himself, we will have no way to stop him, which will be too cheap for him." ”

The four princes want to clean up the portal, and others really can't interfere, but if Chen Jiang is handed over to the four princes, the consequences are self-evident.

So it's best to think of a way to get the best of both worlds, to make the fourth prince have nothing to say, and to make him dare not attack Qi Shuying in the future.

This matter is really not easy, after all, as the fourth prince, it is too easy to kill a civilian woman, this is still Qi Shuying's natural strange power, otherwise I don't know how many times I have died.

What made Su Zhan and Gu Junyan both embarrassed, Su Yunlai looked unimpressed, "This is not a big deal, I have already thought about it." ”

Both of them looked at her, and Gu Junyan looked proud and proud: "Ah Wan is really smart, I know that it will be difficult for you." ”

The major general has been praised since he was a child, but he has never been so happy and proud.

No, the young general suddenly thought, so Ah Wan said that he didn't think much, and it didn't seem to be good.

Su Zhan couldn't wait to ask, "What can you do?" ”

Su Yunlai smiled slightly, meaningful.

After Chen Jiang was arrested, he was very scared, after all, he was the person of the Four Princes, and it depended on the owner to beat the dog, Gu Junyan would not kill him easily, and the Four Princes would try their best to save him for the sake of their own reputation.

Chen Jiang thought that Gu Junyan might interrogate him about something, or about the killing of Qi Shuying, or maybe about the Four Princes, but since he was arrested, he was locked up in a room, except for the person who delivered food every day, he never saw anyone again, no one interrogated him, he was like forgotten.

After a long time, Chen Jiang also became apprehensive in his heart.

I don't know if it was a few days after I was arrested, someone finally came in, he knew this person, it was the guard next to Gu Junyan, called Yi Wu or Yi Wen.

Chen Jiang was taken out and into a carriage.

"Where are you taking me?" Chen Jiang couldn't help but ask.

Yi Wu glanced at him, learning from his general's arrogant and domineering tone: "As a prisoner, I am not qualified to ask questions. ”

Chen Jiang was so angry!

"I am a member of the Four Princes, Gu Junyan is not qualified to abuse lynching me! I want to see the Four Princes! Chen Jiang said loudly.

"Who said they were going to lynch you? After all, our major general is a reasonable person. Yi Wu said with a smile, and then waved his hand: "Bring someone up, by the way, let him be quiet." ”

Chen Jiang's mouth was blocked by a rag, thinking that he was also the commander of the guards beside the dignified prince, and he was also majestic outside, not to mention being arrested today, he was also gagged by a rag, he really hasn't been so embarrassed!

Chen Jiang was too worried, Gu Junyan really didn't punish him, after he got into the carriage, he started to hurry, non-stop along the way, once during a break, Chen Jiang looked at the scenery outside, and suddenly thought, this is back to Beijing! Gu Junyan wants to send him back to the capital!

That's right, in Xuzhou City, perhaps the status of the four princes is the most noble, even Gu Yanshan has to take care of the difference between monarchs and ministers, but it is not necessarily in the capital, and those who can control him are in the capital.

Su Yunlai had long understood this, so he deliberately found someone who could control him for the fourth prince.

Chen Jiang is really scared now, his so-called backer is just the fourth prince, but now the fourth prince is also difficult to protect himself, he finally understands now that Gu Junyan does not torture him or extort a confession because someone can let him tell the truth directly!

Gu Junyan is planning to send him to the emperor!

When Emperor Qianyuan heard that Li Sheng had brought Gu Junyan's people to see him, he was surprised, what happened to this Gu Junyan? Until he saw Yi Wu kneeling in front of him with Chen Jiang, he didn't react.

Isn't this the commander of the guards beside the four princes? What did the four princes do at the border?

Emperor Qianyuan thought of many possibilities, but when Yi Wu said that the guards around the four princes were assassinating Qi Shuying in the middle of the night, he didn't react.

Qi Shuying, this name seems a little familiar? Emperor Qianyuan looked at Gonggong Zhao beside him, and Gonggong Zhao understood, and reminded in a low voice: "Your Highness, it is the girl who has contributed to the treatment of the plague, and you have praised her." ”

Emperor Qianyuan suddenly realized, and then frowned tightly, but what are the four princes doing if they can't get along with a medical girl? No matter why, Emperor Qianyuan couldn't embarrass his son, and I was afraid that this matter would have to be suppressed.

"Chen Jiang, you are a good guts! Dare to assassinate a meritorious daughter! Emperor Qianyuan said angrily.

The corners of Li Sheng's mouth skimmed slightly, since Emperor Qianyuan ascended the throne, what he is best at is to whitewash the peace, pick it up high, and put it down gently, he has seen it too many times, and he doesn't feel strange.

"Your Majesty, although this matter is not a big deal, but after all, Miss Qi has been praised by His Majesty himself, if it is spread, I am afraid that the outside world will question the father-son relationship between His Majesty and His Royal Highness, which is not good for the royal family." After Li Sheng finished speaking, he kowtowed respectfully: "This matter is related to the reputation of His Royal Highness, Jun Yan didn't dare to make a claim, so he sent someone over and asked His Majesty to deal with it personally." ”

Emperor Qianyuan's face was a little ugly, he couldn't help it, he coughed softly, Zhao Gonggong was startled, and hurriedly took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Emperor Qianyuan.

Emperor Qianyuan took the medicine and took a deep breath, and then continued: "Jun Yan has a heart, I know this matter, I will deal with it as appropriate, and I will definitely not wronged the meritorious people." ”

Emperor Qianyuan must appreciate this matter, this matter is the fault of the four princes anyway, Qi Shuying has just made such a great contribution to the country, many people who have healed her are still grateful for her kindness, if the guards around the four princes appear at this time to assassinate her, it will definitely cause public anger.

Some people even think that if the royal family's cruelty to people who have contributed to the country is spread, it will be a big blow to the royal family.

Gu Junyan didn't do this, but sent people to him, which can be regarded as maintaining the reputation of the four princes and the royal family.

Of course, Emperor Qianyuan also understood Gu Junyan's intention in doing this, that is, to use his hand to suppress the four princes, so that the four princes would not dare to attack Qi Shuying again.

This favor is the point.

Emperor Qianyuan immediately issued a secret decree to the four princes, asking him to restrain his behavior and not get along with a girl, after all, he had just praised Qi Shuying, and the four princes were going to kill her when he turned his head, which was obviously a slap in his face.

When the fourth prince received the secret decree, he was angry and angry, but he didn't expect Gu Junyan to dare to give him this hand! But he couldn't tell Emperor Qianyuan openly, otherwise he would become a threat, so he thought about it and decided to give Emperor Qianyuan a hint.

"Qi Shuying's father used to be a doctor." The fourth prince vaguely reminded Emperor Qianyuan.

But it was just such a sentence that made Emperor Qianyuan, who was originally just a little dissatisfied, suddenly burst into anger.

He replied to the fourth prince with a letter, which directly stated that he was not allowed to kill Shu Ying again, but to protect her well, if something happened to her, he was the only one who asked!

After receiving the letter, the fourth prince looked inexplicable, what the hell is going on? Emperor Qianyuan should have understood his hint, but why didn't he kill her, but protect her? Supposedly, shouldn't that be?

The four princes had a question, Emperor Qianyuan was really angry this time, and he was even snubbed for several days against Chen Guifei, Chen Guifei was anxious, and also wrote a letter to the four princes, asking him not to anger the emperor, as long as he followed the rules, no one could cross him.

Even if the fourth prince was reluctant, he didn't dare to do anything now, although he didn't know what was going on.

Emperor Qianyuan still seemed to be worried, so he turned his head and personally gave Qi Shuying a lot of things to express his importance to her, which could be regarded as appeasing Gu Junyan.

Things went so smoothly, and it was beyond Su Yunlai's expectations, even she didn't expect Emperor Qianyuan to attach so much importance to Qi Shuying.

Su Zhan went to find Su Yunlai and said happily: "Ah Wan, your method still works, what else can the fourth prince do now?" ”

Su Yunlai didn't have much joy on his face, but was a little worried.

Su Zhan asked puzzledly, "Ah Wan, what's wrong with you?" Everything has been settled, why don't you seem to be happy? ”

"I always feel like things are going too well." Su Yunlai wrinkled his brows and said, "It is said that the emperor's attitude cannot be so clear, I always feel that there are other hidden secrets here." ”

Su Zhan was speechless for a while, okay, other people are eager to solve things as soon as possible, but it's good to get to his sister, it's strange that things are solved too smoothly and easily.

I really don't understand what these people think.

Jun Yao walked in at this time, "Miss, Mr. Xu, please come over." ”

Su Yunlai nodded, and Su Zhan on the side asked, "Guanyi's injury is still not healed?" ”

Su Yunlai couldn't help but glance at him when he heard this, Su Zhan was awkward and didn't look at Xu Guanyi for several days.

"I've seen him, do you want to go with me to see him?"

Su Zhan shook his head: "Forget it, the emperor has given a lot of things, and I will send them to that crazy woman." ”

Su Yunlai said helplessly: "Third brother, Shuying is not a crazy woman, it is said that she is still from a famous family." ”

"Oh."

Su Yunlai: "......"

Su Yunlai came and went to see Xu Guanyi, only to see that Xu Guanyi was still carrying a little boy by his side, the little boy was dark-skinned, a little thin, standing beside Xu Guanyi with his head lowered, Su Yunlai walked in, he glanced at her very keenly, and saw that she didn't seem to have any offensive power, so he lowered his head again.

Su Yunlai raised his eyebrows slightly, and almost instantly recognized who this kid was.

She looked at Xu Guanyi, who nodded lightly without a trace.

"Xiaobao, can you go out for a while? My brother has something to say to my sister. Xu Guanyi slowed down his voice and said.

Xiaobao looked at Xu Guanyi, then at Su Yunlai, nodded silently, and walked out quietly.

Knowing that he left the room, Xu Guanyi sighed: "This kid seems to be very insecure, and he doesn't talk much, alas, it's also pitiful, he lost his relatives at a young age, and he was fought for and captured." ”

Su Yunlai touched his nose, the person who let Xiaobao be snatched by him seemed to be her.

Xu Guanyi hurriedly said: "I'm not talking about you, I'm saying that it's better for this kid to be here than to follow the four princes." ”

The fourth prince will not raise children with heart.

"You're looking for me, but it has something to do with this kid?" Su Yunlai asked.

Xu Guan nodded, his expression was a little solemn: "I have always lived in Su Mansion, and I was a little worried about this child, so I asked Yi Wu to bring him over, but I didn't expect this child to be very guarded, and he actually put Yi Wu down!" ”

Yi Wu is the guard next to Gu Junyan, his martial arts are strong, and this kid is not very old, even if Yi Wu was defenseless at the time, he also has the heart to underestimate the enemy, but it is still amazing.

"Yi Wu said that the tricks he used were not ordinary martial arts, it was said to be called claw grabbing skills, and it was said to be a trick created by the Ouchi guards in the past." Xu Guanyi continued: "I'm afraid that this kid also has some background, Xiaobao has no sense of security, and has been making trouble, Yi Wu sent him to me, he has gone back to tell the young general, let the young general continue to investigate Xiaobao's life experience, I think, this matter should also be told to you." ”

Actually, no, it's just that Su Yunlai has been busy with Qi Shuying's affairs in the past few days, and there is a difference between men and women, and a certain young general is still cautious, so Su Yunlai has not come to see Xu Guanyi again.

Xu Guan was anxious, so he thought of coming to her to meet him.

He wanted to see her, and he used to think that he was satisfied to live under the same roof with her, but now he wanted to see her all the time, so he had to try to find a reason to be righteous and bright.

Su Yunlai didn't think much about it, nodded, and then sighed: "This child is so dependent on you, and it is also related to you, and now he has no father, no mother, and no home, so it is pitiful to think about it." ”

"Since you said that he is destined for me, I can't just watch him be homeless, and I can still afford to raise a child by myself." Xu Guanyi said with a smile.

A long, long time later, when that little boy could already become Xu Guanyi's reliance, he once asked him, why did he adopt him back then?

Xu Guanyi didn't answer, because the answer was so understated, just because of the girl's unintentional words.

Su Yunli looked at the warm smile on his face, and sighed slightly in his heart, Xu Guanyi is really a very good person, kind and gentle, she smiled: "That's Xiaobao's blessing." ”

Because of Xiaobao, the two suddenly had a lot of topics, Xu Guanyi sat on the chair and watched Xiaobao play in the yard, a little child, when he arrived in a strange place, although he was nervous, he was still a little curious, and quietly touched this and that in the yard.

Jun Yao was naughty and brought a puppy raised by the Chen family, the puppy had just been born, with white fur without a trace of variegation, and a pair of wet eyes, which looked very cute.

The boy and the puppy played, the puppy liked to let people chase it the most, and suddenly ran in the direction of Su Yunlai, Su Yunlai was caught off guard, took a step back slightly, but stepped on the air under his feet, and almost fell to the ground, Xu Guanyi ignored his injuries and hurried to help her, Su Yunlai reacted quickly, turned sideways or overwhelmed Xu Guanyi's injured arm.

"What are you doing?" Gu Junyan asked angrily.

Su Yunlai didn't look at him, but turned around and asked Xu Guanyi to pick him up, seeing that blood was oozing from his arm again, and frowned: "Jun Yao, go and invite Miss Qi." ”

Xiaobao saw that Xu Guanyi was injured and hurriedly ran to him, and the puppy who was in trouble had already quickly pounced into the arms of the little maid and was coquettish.

Gu Junyan kept looking at Su Yunlai and Xu Guanyi coldly, and Su Yunlai asked people to help Xu Guanyi back to the room.

Xu Guanyi glanced at Gu Junyan and reminded Su Yunlai: "Major General......

Su Yunlai's expression was faint, "Let's go back to the room first, your injuries have to be dealt with again." ”

Gu Junyan looked at Su Yunlai standing beside Xu Guanyi, although he didn't personally help him, his eyes kept falling on him, his eyes were worried and concerned.

Gu Junyan's eyes were cold, and he finally turned around and strode away.

Xu Guan glanced back, but did not remind Su Yunlai.

Gu Junyan returned to the barracks with an angry face, Su Zhan couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw him coming back, and looked at Yi Wen, it was Yi Wen who followed Gu Junyan out today.

"What's wrong?" Su Zhan asked in a low voice.

Yi Wen glanced at him, and his tone was helpless: "What else can happen, except for your Miss Su, who would dare to give us a major general?" ”

Su Zhan thought about it, and couldn't help but smile and nodded: "This is also true." ”

Yi Wen glared at him angrily, can you not be so proud and proud at this time? It's annoying, isn't it?

If your sister is in trouble, be your brother and solve it.

After asking Yi Wen about what was going on, Su Zhan suddenly realized, oh, it turned out that he was jealous!

"Major General." Su Zhan walked up to Gu Junyan and called.

Gu Junyan glanced at him coldly.

Su Zhan looked back at him innocently, Gu Junyan looked at him and said angrily: "You, who are your elder brother, take good care of your sister, do you understand whether men and women are intimate or not?!" ”

Su Zhan was so angry in his heart, you have the ability to tell my sister to go? If you can't afford to mess with her, will I be angry? Persimmon can be pinched softly, and it's not so bullying, right?

"Do men and women kiss?" Su Zhan raised his eyebrows: "Major General, should I treat everyone equally, or should it depend on the situation?" ”

Gu Junyan immediately glared at him angrily, do you still need to ask?

Su Zhan couldn't stop laughing, sat down opposite him, and then said: "Young General, when you persuaded me at the beginning, didn't it make a lot of sense, what Guanyi was injured in order to save Shu Ying, and Shu Ying should take care of him, listening to the situation just now, it was just an accident." ”

"Even if it's an accident, do men and women understand it?" Gu Junyan was still angry, "I was talking about reputation and reputation at the beginning, why don't you care now?" ”

"Then he was originally the injured person, so it's not wrong to take care of the injured first." Su Zhan said innocently.

Gu Junyan was choked speechless, stared at him for a long time, and finally held back a sentence: "That, that, that's not good!" ”

Su Zhan shook his head helplessly, and then poured a glass of water for Gu Junyan: "Young General, you dissipate your anger first, you are so angry, Ah Wancai is going to be angry with you again." ”

"She's angry? How dare she be angry? She is entangled with other men and dares to be angry with me? Gu Junyan asked in disbelief, thought about it, and found that Su Yunlai seemed to be able to really do it, and slapped the table: "It's against her!" ”

Su Zhan pursed his lips and drank tea by himself, he quietly watched the young general pretend to be here, and turned around to see if he could still be hard-mouthed.

Other people's brothers are worried that their sister will be bullied when she gets married, but Third Young Master Su has no such troubles at all, he compares himself to his future brother-in-law, please be careful with his sister, otherwise he will bear the consequences.

Alas, it's really not easy to be someone's brother.

Yi Wu walked in at this time, with a tangled expression on his face, as if he was embarrassed about something important.

Gu Junyan's heart was not going well, and he was even more angry when he saw his expression: "What's wrong with you?" What kind of expression is this? ”

Yi Wu wanted to speak and stopped, and finally sighed faintly.

"If you have something to say, what do you want to talk about like a girl?" Gu Junyan said angrily.

Yi Wu looked at Yi Wen, Yi Wen gave him a look, the young general was in a bad mood, don't mess with him!

Yi Wu hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I, I went to Guanyi's house today to help him pick up Xiaobao, and there was a little conflict with that child. ”

"So you're just trying to tell me you got into a fight with a kid?" Gu Junyan asked coldly.

Yi Wen sighed, alas, the young general is really angry, seeing that he is about to lose his mind, he can't help but feel a little worried, the young general attaches so much importance to Miss Su, and he doesn't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.

"No, then I found something." Yi Wu said in a hesitant voice, taking out a picture scroll from behind his back.

Gu Jun stretched out his hand and took it, opened it and looked at it, his eyes were condensed.

In the painting is a woman, wearing a green skirt, swaying and colorful, although it is just a back, but it can be seen that the temperament is outstanding and refined, there is no extra jewelry, but there is a white jade plum blossom hairpin between the hair, Xu Guanyi's painting skills are outstanding, and the woman's gentleness and beauty are portrayed into the wood.

Gu Junyan once heard people say that the works painted by a good painter can convey emotions, and he used to scoff at it, but when he saw this painting, he could clearly feel the mood of the person who painted this painting.

Even if he didn't paint his face, Gu Junyan recognized it at a glance, who this woman was, or rather, Xu Guanyi's painting was so vivid that everyone who had seen Su Yunlai could recognize the woman in the painting.

Gu Junyan suddenly thought of the previous rumors that Xu Guanyi's sweetheart was a woman in a green dress, but he never thought that this person would be Su Yunlai!

Su Zhan saw that his face was wrong, and when he came over, his face also changed.

Yi Wen glanced at Yi Wu, what did you show the young general? Let the Major General be so angry?

Yi Wu looked innocent, didn't you ask me to take it out?

Su Zhan looked at Gu Junyan with a worried expression, with his feelings for Su Yunlai, he didn't know how he would deal with it.
