Chapter 222: Kicked in the head by a donkey
The two women were holding steamed buns, and they could only snuggle up to each other to keep warm on this cold night.
"Sister, it's me who has caused you to be tired, if it weren't for me like this, you could at least be a girl in a big family." The tightly wrapped woman sighed.
"Sister, what are you talking about, if you hadn't saved me, I would have died in that fire, but if we want to take revenge now, we must use the hands of the county lord of Qinghe."
"But how can the county lord help with our affairs."
"Is it true that our great revenge cannot be avenged? Otherwise, I will go to see the county lord tomorrow, and as long as she is willing to help us avenge us, I can use her as a cow and a horse for the rest of my life. ”
The woman obviously thinks everything is too beautiful, the two sisters are just ordinary women, although Chu Lixue has always been helpful, but she will not help for a few words from them, there is always a right or wrong in things.
"Sister, forget it, let's find a way to take revenge. For the county lord, we don't have any use value, you see, from the handling of Guo Xian's matter, it can be seen that Guo Qilan snatched King Chen's favor, which is tantamount to offending the county lord's reverse scales, and the county lord took action to send the Guo family to the guillotine. But our enemy is the Bai family, and the Bai family has no enmity with the county lord. ”
"Yes, even if it was Miss Chu back then, didn't she fail to bring down the Bai family? In the end, he died at a young age. ”
In the early morning, the sunlight shone into the room through the window paper, Chu Lixue was sleeping sweetly on the bed, and she didn't notice that someone was silently watching her.
After about a stick of incense, Chu Lixue slowly opened her eyes, but she didn't expect a handsome smiling face to meet her, out of the normal reaction of people, Chu Lixue punched the other party's nose fiercely.
"Oops......" King Chen cried out in pain, covering his nose. Didn't he just enter the room without her consent? As for hitting him in the nose? It's really sour.
"What are you doing? Why in my room? Chu Lixue grabbed the quilt and put it on her chest and said.
Hearing this, King Chen frowned slightly, he used to look at her like this, why can't he do it today? He was even beaten. Also, looking at her appearance, it's as if I have lightened her.
"I'm your husband, you're my wife, and I've not watched you sleep once or twice, why are you beating me today?" "The prince is really forgetful, the lord of this county has already reconciled with you, if you dare to sneak into my room while I am sleeping next time, I will kick you out." Chu Lixue feigned anger and said.
These days, King Chen is willing to put down his body and ask for peace with himself, Chu Lixue has already forgiven him in his heart, the ancient man three
It is very normal to have four wives and concubines, but if you have only one wife in your life, you will be regarded as a monster by others, but helplessly, Chu Lixue is a modern person from the 21st century, and I am afraid that she will not be willing to share emotional matters with others in this life. What's more, is King Chen still framed?
"Are you still angry? Didn't you say that? Is it easy for a woman to get old when she is angry? But I think my lady is beautiful even when she is angry. King Chen said with a hippie smile.
"Hmph, you can really talk, have you also told Guo Qilan and Bai Ruyan about these words?"
"No, no, this king swears, such things have only been said to you." King Chen said with a smile.
"Hmph, Flim Flam. Don't you have to go to court? You've been back so early these days. Chu Lixue looked at King Chen with a scrutinizing gaze.
"This king has taken leave from the emperor, and if he can't coax the princess home, this king will never go to court. Thinking that if I don't go to the court, the emperor and the queen mother should be very happy, otherwise I know too much about the affairs of the court, how can they rest assured. ”
"Even if you don't go to the court, you can still know what happened in the court, don't Shangguan and Jiang Tian have secret correspondence with you? And the secret passage in my house, aren't you already familiar with it? Chu Lixue glanced at King Chen coldly and said.
"Haha, you really can't hide anything from the lady's discernment, why did you think of creating a secret passage through here to go straight to Shangguan's mansion?"
"If I say, in fact, I have long been interested in the geographical location of this house, but I inquired and learned that this is the Guo family's property, it just so happened that Guo Yan injured Remnant Xue, I happened to use the excuse to find trouble with him, I thought he would really give me a lot of money, but I didn't expect that Guo Hai actually gave this house to me, in their eyes it is a haunted deserted house, but in the eyes of this concubine, it is an excellent treasure land."
Hearing this, King Chen hooked his lips and smiled slightly, Chu Lixue claimed to be the concubine, not the lord of the county, it seems that the fire in her heart is completely gone, otherwise how can she talk to herself so calmly.
Suddenly, Chu Lixue also noticed her mistake in words, why did she call herself a concubine? said that he would have to train King Chen well, why did he lose his momentum so quickly. This woman, in the face of love, her IQ is equal to zero, is she really so simple to spare this stinky man?
King Chen saw that Chu Lixue had let go, so he said, "Then when will the princess go home with this king?" Your book of harmony, this king has already burned, let's expose this matter, I will be more careful in the future, and I will not fall for other women. King Chen said in a sworn pose.
Chu Lixue saw that King Chen was already like this, if he was still in such a stalemate, I am afraid that his feelings would be damaged over the years, a smart woman is like this, she knows when to be smart and when to be confused.
But if they go back to live in King Chen's mansion, what will happen to this mansion? Under her bed is the entrance to the secret passage, the house is unguarded, sooner or later it will be discovered, is it difficult to seal the secret passage? No, absolutely not, this is an important place for the transmission of messages between them, and it must not be discarded like this.
Just when Chu Lixue was in a dilemma, Chu Lixue heard a crisp ringtone. This is Chu Lixue hanging at the head of the bed, fixed with the extremely fine silk of the Western Regions, and the other end of the silk is very secretly worn under the bed, as long as Shangguan Tianyu comes, the bell will be pulled.
If Chu Lixue was there, she would open the mechanism on the bed and let Shangguan Tianyu in, but Shangguan Tianyu couldn't open this door from under the secret passage.
"Shangguan is here." Chu Lixue said lightly. immediately got out of bed, put on his coat, and called Ning Xiang to come in to make up, and ordered the two of them to guard outside, and no outsiders were allowed to approach.
Ning Xiang's movements were very fast, and when Shangguan Tianyu walked into the room from the secret passage, Ning Xiang had already finished dressing Chu Lixue. Ning Xiang's movements were so fast that even King Chen was surprised.
"Ningxiang, go prepare some pastries, and make a pot of lily tea." Chu Lixue smiled lightly.
Originally, she was going to wash up and eat breakfast after getting up, but she was so disturbed by King Chen, she has been hungry until now, and now her stomach is making a big fuss in the Five Organs Temple, but she has to find something to pad her stomach.
"Tianyu, look at you in a hurry, is there something big happening?" King Chen said in a deep voice.
"Yes, there is an outbreak of plague in Southern Chu, and the refugees in Southern Chu are all rushing towards Beichen, they have passed through some villages, and many people have been infected with the plague, and the disaster is very serious."
"What? Pestilence? Why haven't you heard of it before? The people of our Cloud City have just encountered corpse poison, and if they are infected with the plague again, the consequences will be unimaginable. ”
"Yes, today, the emperor asked the ministers to think about it, and the imperial doctor sent to it was also infected with the plague, and the epidemic spread very quickly, and it has reached several villages outside the city, and now the emperor ordered the gate of Cloud City to be closed tightly, and no longer let the victims enter, if there is a hard interloper, there will be no mercy." Shangguan Tianyu shook his head helplessly.
Listening to the conversation between the two people, Chu Lixue couldn't help but interject, "This emperor is really stupid, no matter what, he is his own people, if he can't develop a prescription to relieve the epidemic as soon as possible, it is useless to send a hundred imperial doctors." ”
"Yes, someone in the court originally proposed to invite the county lord of Qinghe to go to the disaster area, but the emperor vetoed it."
"Is he concerned about the safety of this concubine?" Chu Lixue sneered.
"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, the emperor said, you are the princess of Chen, now it's just an awkward quarrel between husband and wife, if you give grace to the people again, then the emperor in the hearts of the people will change hands, he will never allow you to be big with King Chen for his throne."
Hearing this, Chu Lixue couldn't believe her ears, did this emperor's head let the donkey kick? Now that the epidemic is serious and the people are living in dire straits, as the emperor, he doesn't want to save the people, but only cares about his own reputation, which is really stupid.
"Shangguan, you will accompany me out of the secret passage in a while, I want to see the situation of the victims, if the plague cannot be cured, it will soon spread in, isn't the same with the previous corpse poison?"
At this moment, Liuyue hurriedly reported that the people in Cloud City had all gathered at the gate, and they begged the county lord to give them medicine to prevent the plague, thinking that someone was already coughing incessantly, and there was a rash on their body.
At this time, the shouts outside the door are getting louder and louder, can Chu Li Xueyan sit at home? If this plague breaks out in Cloud City, then it will definitely cause a situation of ten rooms and nine emptiness, although the current emperor is stupid and incompetent, but she wants to help King Chen regain the throne and dominate the world, and these people must not have an accident, the people are water, the emperor is a boat, and water can carry a boat and overturn a boat, this truth Chu Lixue sees best.
Chu Lixue stood up, and was about to go out, King Chen and Shangguan Tianyu both knew that Chu Lixue was going to meet those people, but the plague was ruthless, and they couldn't let Chu Lixue take risks.
"Don't worry, I'll take precautions, look at the infected people first, maybe I'll know what the cause is." Chu Lixue smiled and said with relief.
Hearing Chu Lixue say this, King Chen and Shangguan Tianyu finally let go of the hand holding Chu Lixue, looked at Chu Lixue's disappearing back, and the two glanced at each other, they both understood what they were going to do.
