Gu Jinchao sighed: "Xuan Yue, you told me." It will never be spread anywhere else...... Do you believe in Auntie? ”

Chen Xuanyue thought silently for a while before he said, "...... It's good to be stupid. At least if I find out some of other people's secrets, they will despise me and won't take it to heart. ”

Gu Jinchao looked at him and didn't speak, just wait for Chen Xuanyue to say it himself at this time!

He lowered his eyes to look at the white porcelain teacup on the kang table: "In a place like the Chen family, there are always some things that are too secret and festering for people to peep into...... When I was about five years old, I was picking lotus flowers by the lotus pond and playing, and I saw the fourth uncle with his entourage, standing by the lotus pond to enjoy the lotus ......"

He slowly told Gu Jinchao about this matter that had been hidden for many years.

When he was five years old, he was still raised by Mrs. Chen, which made the Qin family very jealous of him. Looking at him, his gaze was always cold, and Chen Xuanyue knew that he was afraid that he would not be able to stay by Mrs. Chen's side for a long time. He was too young at that time, and it was too easy for the Qin clan to kill him......

At that time, in order to save his life, he had to leave Dansan Temple.

He often goes to the lotus pond behind Danshan Courtyard to play, but in fact, he is not playing. He just likes to watch the lotus pond think about things in a daze.

It was very hot in Wanping County that summer, and the cicadas kept screaming until the sun set in the evening. It was much cooler next to the lotus pond, and the dragonflies were flying everywhere, and he hid in the shade of the willow trees to watch the dragonflies.

Two people slowly walked up to the corridor not far away, one was Chen Siye, and the other was his scholar.

Chen Xuanyue didn't pay much attention to them at first. I think it should be to say goodbye to Mrs. Chen and come out to enjoy the coolness.

Chen Siye stood in the pavilion, facing the scene of receiving the infinite blue of the lotus leaves, and was silent for a long time. The standing figure greeted the afterglow of the sunset, becoming more and more lonely.

The scholar behind him whispered: "Fourth master, after a while, the banquet inside is over, Mrs. Tai should look for you, let's go back first." ”

"What are you looking for me to do?" His voice was very flat, "With the third brother and the second brother here, you don't need to talk to me." ”

The scholar smiled: "You are also Mrs. Tai's heart!" Look at what Mrs. Tai has given you, which ones are not the best......"

Chen Siye said lightly: "Good to me...... I don't think so. Mother is too good-looking, I'm afraid that people will say that she favors one over the other, and she is better for the children than for the children. I often wonder if she's selfless? The second brother was just born to a girl, and she became a member of the court! If that's the case, I'm not going to be too careful. It's just that the third brother is a grandson, and he is better than me, and she likes her better than me......"

Chen Xuanyue felt bad when he heard this. Because of their small stature, they could not see it because of the lotus leaves, and they shrank into a ball so that they would not see it. He walked and did not dare to go...... Otherwise, he would definitely not dare to stay in such a situation!

The scholar didn't know what to say to comfort him, so he didn't say for a long time before he said, "Didn't the third master say that he wanted to hand over the Chen family's business to you...... I think the third master is really good to you, a brother of the same mother, always closer than other brothers. ”

Chen Siye sneered: "The status is inferior to that of Shinong and Industry and Commerce, I am a Jinshi, even if I have not been promoted in the Hanlin Academy for a few years, I have read the sage book and are proficient in science...... Even if he doesn't help me in my career, he shouldn't cut off my future like this! He is also really ruthless, and he is about to be promoted by Master Zhang to do Zhan's business, I am afraid that I will block his way in the future......"

As he spoke, he set his eyes on the lotus pond again.

"Si Qi, do you remember this lotus pond. You were only 10 years old at the time...... Lao Wu struggled in the water, shouting in shock and fear, I looked at him, I really didn't want to save him at all. How can you learn from the third brother to hide in the water, he is also stupid, obviously he doesn't know anything about water......"

"The fifth child is dead, and my mother is still very sad. I hid outside the mourning hall and peeked, and my mother cried while burning paper......"

He didn't seem to want the scholar to answer, and smiled to himself.

"There's a ghost under the lotus pond."

…… Chen Xuanyue was already chilling when he heard this.

The two masters and servants seemed to have finished admiring the view of the lotus pond, but did not turn back, but walked towards the corridor on his side.

Chen Xuanyue's body stiffened. I guess I want to go back to Dansan-in Temple from the cloister......

If they come out of the lotus pond, they will inevitably see themselves hiding here...... And if he runs out now, he will definitely attract the attention of the two, and he can't outrun these two people. At that time, you will die! If Fourth Master Chen knew that this matter had leaked out, it would be no problem to pinch him to death on the spot......

Chen Xuanyue hesitated for a moment and immediately chose the first one. If he runs away, it means that he is a thief with a weak heart, and it is difficult to even die if he doesn't want to.

He didn't have much time to hesitate, and soon Chen Siye came over around the corner. Si Qi behind him saw Chen Xuanyue first, and immediately exclaimed: "Fourth master, how can there be a little cub there!" ”

Chen Xuanyue saw Fourth Master Chen's face and immediately became gloomy. He strode towards him, grabbed Chen Xuanyue by the collar and lifted him up.

Chen Xuanyue made a blank expression, sniffled and looked at him.

A trace of disgust flashed in Chen Siye's eyes, and he almost threw him to the ground.

Si Qi said in a low voice: "Isn't this the ninth young master who was raised by Mrs. Tai's side, I heard that his brain is not very good." Fourth master, what should we do, this kid has been hiding here for a long time, and he must have listened to everything we said......"

Chen Siye's hand tightened, and Chen Xuanyue immediately felt difficulty breathing. He struggled and cried: "Dragonfly! My Dragonfly...... You trampled on ...... dead" Chen Siye frowned, what nonsense this kid said! He looked down and realized that he had really stepped on a dragonfly under his feet, and it was too dead to die anymore. The child with a lot of snot and tears on his hand was still holding his hand, "Mama...... I've been arrested for a long time...... The dragonfly died...... ...... to pay"

Chen Siye looked at the dragonflies flying all over the sky, and finally understood what this kid was doing here.

Since he was a fool and didn't look like he understood what they said, Chen Siye let go of his hand slightly and asked in a low voice, "Do you know what we just said?" ”

Chen Xuanyue was still crying: "The dragonfly is dead, you trampled on ...... dead"

Si Qi breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, he is a fool...... You don't have to bother. "If I really kill him, I'm afraid it will be very troublesome. After all, this is a young master, and he was raised by Mrs. Tai's side. If the person is gone, it will naturally be searched, and it will be troublesome to find it when the time comes.

Chen Siye's eyes narrowed slightly, and he suddenly laughed: "It's not troublesome, just throw it into the lotus pond." He drowned himself, what does it have to do with me? ”

Chen Xuanyue's heart was cold, he didn't expect Fourth Master Chen to be so ruthless and suspicious! I'm afraid it's hard to get through today......

……

When Gu Jinchao heard this, he was also surprised by Fourth Master Chen's ruthlessness. She only thought that this person had a feminine temperament, but she didn't expect this vicious person to not even let go of a child! Then this person's behavior is even more suspicious, he can watch Chen Wuye drown and kill a child who can't resist him, so what will he do to Chen Sanye?

Gu Jinchao suddenly remembered what Ye Liang had said to her. He said that Chen Sanye is not a good person, and for the sake of his own future, he can ruthlessly cut off his brother's path...... Could it be that he was referring to Chen Siye?

But why did Chen Sanye do this? Gu Jinchao didn't think that although he had the means, these means would not be used on his brother......

She got closer and closer to the inside story, but instead began to feel confused.

If Fourth Master Chen harmed Third Master Chen, how could he hurt him?

After coming back to her senses slightly, she asked Chen Xuanyue again: "...... So how did you escape? ”

Chen Xuanyue smiled: "I didn't escape...... It was my grandmother who sent someone to find the fourth uncle to go back. He just let me go, and his boy caught another dragonfly for me. I held the dragonfly and stopped talking...... Otherwise, with the fourth uncle's temperament, he would definitely not let me go. ”

He is a small child, and it is not easy to be so improvised.

Gu Jinchao thought for a while and said to him, "Xuan Yue, do you know when you don't have to pretend anymore?" ”

Chen Xuanyue looked at her.

Gu Jinchao told him: "...... When you're strong enough not to be afraid of these people. ”

……

After sending Chen Xuanyue away, Aunt Xue came in to leave. Gu Jinchao was already a little tired, so everyone retreated, and she slept on the pillow for a while. When I woke up, I heard the child crying, and it was already sinking outside the window.

Gu Jinchao picked up the long lock and coaxed it, thinking that he should still tell Chen Sanye about Chen Siye.

But how to put it, it's a real problem......

When Chen Sanye came back, she was still thinking about it in her heart.

Changsuo may have heard that his father was back, and he cried again, so Chen Sanye took the child from the crook of her arm and coaxed it. Pacing slowly. Gu Jinchao looked at his tall back and was distracted, and the long lock tugged at the sleeve of his father's official uniform, sobbing and not crying.

His arms were steady and warm, and the child slept peacefully.

Chen Yanyun walked up to her, saw that she rarely looked so distracted, and lowered her voice and said, "...... Just now I was coaxing the child, and you kept looking at me. Am I so good-looking? ”

Gu Jinchao's face flushed, knowing that he was laughing at himself. Don't look away and say, "Where do you look good!" ”

Chen Sanye handed over the child to Zou and asked her to take her to sleep in the conservatory. He poured a cup of tea and drank: "You always look at me, then you must be thinking about things." Just tell me what you want, don't embarrass your little head...... Is there something difficult about the housekeeper? ”

Gu Jinchao shook his head before he said, "Did you tell the fourth master that you want him to take care of my shop?" ”

Chen Sanye smiled: "You're just thinking about this?" I just mentioned it to him once, you don't have to worry too much, you just take the benefits he gives you. The Chen family's family business was originally in charge of me, but it was handed over to him after I entered the Zhan Mansion. ”

Chen Sanye must have trusted Chen Siye very much, and her words are even more difficult to say. Since it's hard to say, she can always ask...... Gu Jinchao pulled his arm: "The concubine remembers that the fourth master is a jinshi of the Nonshenke, why doesn't he continue to be an official, but help manage the family's property?" ”R1152
