The bed creaked so loudly that the people outside blushed when they heard the sound, and the atmosphere in the room was indeed hot.

"Bear with me a little longer, and you'll be fine in no time." Lin Qingyu whispered, looked at the thin sweat on Chu Xi's forehead, and said with a smile: "Why don't you stop first, I'll come." ”

Chu Xi glared at him angrily and let go of his hand, while Lin Qingyu began to grasp the bed with his hand and shake it even harder.

Chu Xi sat down on one side, poured herself a cup of tea, and remembered the scene of Fang Cai, the corners of her lips were full of smiles.

He suddenly ran in, looking like he was going to do something big, and the result was that she let out a soft snort, and then began to shake the big bed with him, and the people outside might be thinking about some beautiful pictures now.

"How much longer?" Chu Xi asked.

Lin Qingyu deliberately raised his voice: "Soon, it's going to be fine right away......"

The people outside heard that their faces were red again, only the green buds and green sandalwood were confused: "What's wrong here?" ”

"Oh, it's fine." Lin Fu, who followed, said lightly.

"Nothing? But it was so loud inside, everyone seemed to be secretly laughing. Lu Ya was puzzled, she didn't think about Chu Xi and Lin Qingyu in that direction at all.

Lu Tan came back to his senses, and glanced at Lin Fu meaningfully: "Your family is really a disciple." ”

Seeing that she understood, Lin Fu coughed lightly: "I'm different from him." ”

Lu Tan glanced at him, and also stared at the hut, thinking in her heart, if Chu Xi was forced, she would not let Lin Qingyu go!

Somewhere in the bamboo forest, Su Su looked at the woman in black with a calm face, and was slightly worried: "Let's go." ”

The woman in black smiled lightly, her bright eyes were a little happy, and she said in a soft voice: "Let's go, let's go pick up Mu Ming, it's time for him to come and see his father." ”

Su Su lowered her eyes, and the woman took a deep look at the depths of the bamboo forest, turned her head and disappeared into the forest.

Lin Qingyu finally stopped, and then collapsed on the bed: "I'm so tired." ”

"Then rest more."

"That's right, you have to have a good rest these days, otherwise after you get married in a few days, I'm afraid there will be no rest!"

"Lin Qingyu!"

"I mean, I can't help ......"

"You ——!" Chu Xi's face was slightly red, and she didn't know what to say in the face of his blatant words.

Seeing that Chu Xi's eyes were wet, Lin Qingyu hurriedly became serious, and walked over cautiously: "Xi'er, don't be angry, I won't say it." ”

Looking at his aggrieved appearance, Chu Xi took a deep breath and stared at him: "Then ...... you back?"

"It's all up to you." Lin Qingyu grinned and said, "You said you wanted it, but if you didn't want it, don't ......."

Chu Xi's face turned even redder when she heard this, but Lin Qingyu directly leaned over and choked her red lips, and whispered in a low and charming voice between gentle plunder: "Xi'er, I'm really worried that I can't help it." The person he loves most every day is in his arms, and he is also an adult man, but he is glad that he endured it.

After Chu Xi's whole body became numb and weak, he finally let go of her, and Mei Niang's coughing voice came from outside: "Master, Feng Guan hasn't tried it yet." ”

Lin Qingyu looked at the person in his arms who was panting slightly, and chuckled, "Go out." ”

Chu Xi blinked her eyes and turned her face a little shyly: "It's not too early, we should go back." "At this time, Chu Dai'er and Chu Xiuxiu should also come out.

"Okay." Lin Qingyu looked at her like this, her heart rippled, but she suppressed her impulse, tidied up her clothes for her, and took her out.

Mei Niang looked at the flush and red lips on Chu Xi's face, was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Young lady, you have to try the phoenix crown." ”

"No need, Mei Niang personally selected and built, it must be suitable." Chu Xi smiled lightly.

Mei Niang Wan'er, turned sideways to the side, and Lin Qingyu took Chu Xi's hand and left.

Lu Tan was carefully observing Chu Xi's reaction all the way, and was relieved to see that she was not in the slightest.

Lin Qingyu directly sent Chu Xi to the Chu Mansion, and Chu Dai'er and Chu Xiuxiu hadn't come back yet, but it didn't matter.

"I'm going to stay in the Hou Mansion these days to prepare for the marriage, and I'm not there at night. Can you sleep well? Lin Qingyu raised his hand and gently stroked Chu Xi's cheek and smiled.

"Nature."

"That's good."

Lin Qingyu sent Chu Ji out of the carriage and entered the Chu Mansion, and then instructed Lin Fu: "Go to the Prince's Mansion." ”

When I returned to Chu Mansion, I heard that the father-in-law who had sent the decree to the emperor had already come, and Chu Bingsong accepted the decree on his behalf, and Chu Zhenzhen was also happy with the decree.

Chu Xi returned to the Jin Pavilion, and Chu Bingsong came over.

"Why did the emperor suddenly even advance your marriage, could it be that you said something?" Chu Bingsong was a little suspicious, and Chu Xi revealed the plan.

Chu Xi looked at the angry Chu Bingsong and chuckled: "My daughter didn't say anything, the reason why the emperor advanced the marriage date was because King Xiaoyao wanted to advance the marriage date, and the emperor also wanted to take advantage of this to go to the people's sorrowful anger, that's all." ”

Chu Bingsong looked at her, always feeling uneasy, originally Chu Xi had to leave after more than half a year, he felt that he had at least half a year to prepare, but now, there was no time at all.

"You can't get married so early!" Chu Bingsong said.

Chu Xiwaner: "Father didn't receive the holy decree? ”

Chu Bingsong stared at her fiercely: "Chu Xi, don't think I don't know, you believe Qin Xue, you think I killed your mother, right?" So you plan to take revenge on me, and as soon as you get out of the door of this Chu Mansion, you will start to take revenge on me! ”

Chu Xi's smile widened: "What is my father talking about?" Daughter, a little woman, how can I take revenge on you? Besides, did you really kill my mother back then? ”

Chu Xi asked a series of questions, which made Chu Bingsong stunned. But he felt more and more that Chu Ji was out of control, and couldn't help but think of Xu Jin's words before.

Chu Xi seemed to guess what he was thinking, and only smiled: "Father is a prime minister for a while, if there is anything bad again, I don't know what the people outside will say, and now the emperor also mentioned you, saying that you are getting old and getting more and more confused." ”

"You are bold, is this the way you talk to your father!"

"I'm just relaying the emperor's words, if my father thinks it's not good, you can come to the pavilion less, otherwise I'm afraid that my father will be unhappy every time." Chu Xi's eyes were cold.

Chu Bingsong stared at her, he really didn't know where Chu Xi's strength to not be afraid of death came from.

"Then you should prepare for marriage, and don't expect me to prepare anything for you." After Chu Bingsong finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left.

Xiao Fu'er hurriedly ran over and looked at Chu Xi: "Miss is fine, the master is too selfish and ruthless, how can you say such a thing to Miss, it's also biological......"

"What about the biological ones." Chu Xi said lightly, even the old lady and the wife he had always respected were killed by him, he was so indifferent and ruthless, it was too normal for him.

Xiao Fu'er didn't understand what Chu Ji meant, but Lu Tan knew, and hurriedly pushed Xiao Fu'er: "Miss will get married in ten days, let's think about what to prepare." ”

"That's right, I'll have to bring a lot of dowry maids and mothers-in-law when the time comes, Xiao Fu'er, you go and talk to Chunzhi, bring all the deed of sale, and pick out some of them." Green sprouts also said.

Xiao Fu'er was busy thinking back on track, and said excitedly: "Okay, I'll go find Sister Chunzhi." After that, he looked at the green sprouts again: "Then I should be able to follow the young lady to the Hou Mansion, right?" ”

Looking at the cautious little Fu'er, Lu Tan said badly: "That's not good, Miss said, you are clumsy and verbose, it's better not to take you ......"

"Really?" Xiao Fu'er believed it, and his eyes immediately became wet. Lu Ya hurriedly glared at Lu Tan, and stepped forward to pull Xiao Fu'er: "Don't listen to her nonsense, when did Miss say such a thing, you go to find the spring branch, when the time comes, you will definitely be able to pass." ”

When Xiao Fu'er heard this, she turned her head and glared at Lu Tan: "Bad guy, hum!" With that, he ran away in a rage.

Lu Tan was stunned for a moment, looked at the snickering green sprouts, pursed his lips, but said with a smile: "This long-winded housekeeper will be annoying to you when the time comes." After that, he turned his head and went inside to find Chu Xi.

It was getting late outside, and Chu Dai'er and Chu Xiuxiu didn't return overnight, but it was Chu Zhenzhen who was searching more and more in Qin Xue's room.

When Chu Bingsong came, he was silent, and he didn't know that there was a Chu Zhenzhen behind the bed.

When Qin Xue saw him, her eyes were like a demon from hell: "Chu Bingsong, kill me quickly, so that I can turn into a powerful ghost and seek revenge on you!" ”

"Revenge?" Chu Bingsong sneered: "Even Yang Pei didn't come back to me for revenge, just you, can you do it?" ”

Qin Xue looked at him, laughed, tears flowed, as if the gentle scholar by the river in the past, and the young lady who valued both beauty and talent in the Guogong Mansion were just phantoms.

"Chu Bingsong, since you hate me so much, why did you marry me in the first place, and force me to kill Yang Pei and help me to be the main room."

Chu Bingsong also recalled the beauty of the beginning, but quickly shook his head: "You shut up for me, you brought it all on yourself, how can you blame me?" ”

Qin Xue looked at him and chuckled: "I should have known that you were an indifferent and ruthless person, but before I die, I can tell you a secret......"

"What else do you want to play?" Chu Bingsong frowned and looked at her.

Qin Xue sneered: "I killed so many of your children who died at birth back then!" ”

"Qin Xue ——!"

As soon as I heard the child. Chu Bingsong became excited, after so many years, he said why he always couldn't give birth to a son, but the outer room could give birth, but it turned out that Qin Xue was making trouble!

Chu Bingsong's hand pinched Qin Xue's neck, but Qin Xue smiled more and more fiercely, struggling to look at Chu Bingsong: "After I die, you kill Yang Pei, kill your biological mother, and the news of killing me will spread soon, Chu Bingsong, sooner or later you will have to go to the eighteenth layer of hell to accompany you...... I ......"

Qin Xue stared at Chu Bingsong, but under his increasingly tightened palm, his eyes also lost concentration, and his head was tilted to one side and he was silent.

"You dare to threaten me, you little,!"

Chu Bingsong kept cursing, until the emotions in his heart were cathartic enough, and then he let go of his hand.

Looking at Qin Xue, who was staring at Qin Xue who was dead, Chu Bingsong suddenly felt that his heart became more and more numb.

"Qin Xue, you forced me to do this!" With that, he turned his head and left directly.

After he left, Chu Zhenzhen, who had been hiding behind the curtain, walked out, holding a bunch of jewelry in her arms, but her eyes became red, she saw her father kill her mother, but she didn't come out.

Chu Zhenzhen turned her head, met Qin Xue's bulging eyes, and sat down on the ground in fright, and the jewels were scattered all over the ground.

She panicked and hurriedly put her things away, but she covered her face and cried bitterly.

When Chu Zhenzhen returned to her room with a slightly pale face, Chu Bingsong was already waiting in the room.

"Where have you been?"

Chu Bingsong's cold voice came, and Chu Zhenzhen was startled, but the jewelry on her body had nowhere to hide.

Chu Bingsong looked at her things, his eyes narrowed dangerously: "Say, where are you just now, I didn't allow you to go out of Ruyi Garden, where did you come back?" Where did you get all this stuff on you? ”

Chu Zhenzhen was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and gritted her teeth: "I was in the West Wing just now, and I already put these jewels there, and now I just went to get them back." ”

"Really?" Chu Bingsong looked at her suspiciously, and Chu Zhenzhen nodded hurriedly: "I knew that Yang Pei had stored some jewels in a small box in the west wing before, but now I just remembered it, so I went to take a look, but I didn't expect it to be there, so I took it all back." And I'm going to marry King Loose in ten days, and I want to get myself some dowry......"

Chu Bingsong's face was dark, and he glanced at her when he listened to her words that didn't match her words. King Xiaoyao must have a grudge against himself now, he didn't want to have anything to do with King Xiaoyao again, but Chu Xi is about to get married, and the emperor may not give himself face again, so it is good to leave an eyeliner of his own in the Xiaoyao Palace, so it is good to prevent King Xiaoyao from doing his tricks on him.

"There are still a lot of things in your grandmother's little storeroom, and I will ask you to take out thirty-two for you when I go back, plus your own, sixty-four is ......"

"Thank you, father." Chu Zhenzhen was overjoyed, but remembering that Chu Bingsong strangled her mother alive, she couldn't help but be frightened again, and hurriedly lowered her head and didn't dare to leak out of the horse's feet.

Chu Bingsong glanced at her, and was about to go out, before leaving, he saw a jade hairpin in her arms, this hairpin he recognized, it was given to Qin Xue by himself before, only this one, Yang Pei could not have it.

Could it be that Chu Zhenzhen is not in the West Wing, but in the ......

Chu Bingsong's gaze instantly turned cold, staring at Chu Zhenzhen: "Where are you?" ”

"In the West Wing." Chu Zhenzhen hurriedly said in a panic, but when she was in a panic, Chu Bingsong knew, squatted down in front of her with a smile, and raised her hand to gently follow her hair as before: "Zhenzhen, even if you get married, you must have a strong mother's family to support you in order to keep the position of princess, understand?" ”

"Vera understands." Chu Zhenzhen nodded hurriedly.

Chu Bingsong saw her like this, sneered and snorted: "You must not learn from your mother to go against me, in this world, only smart people can live for a long time." ”

"Yes." Chu Zhenzhen nodded in a panic, Chu Bingsong saw that she answered, so he took out the jade hairpin from her hand: "This hairpin was drawn by me myself before, and someone specially built it for your mother, it will never be the same, you have to learn to be smarter, otherwise when you go to the Xiaoyao Palace, you will be eaten to the bones, and my father will be reluctant." ”

Listening to Chu Bingsong's words that suddenly became ghostly, Chu Zhenzhen's whole body trembled, could this be his true face?

"Zhen Zhen understands that if Zhen Zhen wants to gain a firm foothold, she must need more support from her father."

"It's good to understand, I won't follow the plan of the Easy King, so you can marry with peace of mind, and you have to listen to your father when the time comes."

"Vera understands." Chu Zhenzhen gritted her teeth, but for the sake of her future prospects, she couldn't care much about it.

Seeing this, Chu Bingsong left, and as soon as he left, Chu Zhenzhen sat down in place and began to gasp for air.

The news of Qin Xue's death only spread the next day, and she only said that she had committed suicide by biting her tongue. Everyone expressed their understanding, after all, the once majestic Mrs. Chu became such a person now, she must not be able to stand it, and the people of Ruyi Yuan were watched by Chu Zhenzhen to stay in Ruyi Garden, and no one was allowed to step out of the hospital, but anyone who talked nonsense was dragged out by her and beaten with only half a life.

At the funeral, it was rare to see someone from Dingguo Mansion, who came over in person, dressed in bright red festive clothes, painted with heavy makeup, and looked good.

In front of the mourning hall, Chu Xi did not come to kneel, guarding the soul of the enemy, she would never be able to do it.

Chu Zhenzhen knelt in front of the mourning hall, the Bai family led people over, and there was a large area of Ulala, but no one knelt down to light incense and burn paper.

"Grandmother...... Chu Zhenzhen didn't want to cut off the relationship with the Bai family like this, but the Bai family didn't want to deal with her at all, so she just said: "It's really blessed that she died like this." In the past few days, she has been thinking about waiting for the bad luck of the Chu Mansion to dissipate, so as to torture her, otherwise her Fei'er will be killed by her like this, and she will be unwilling.

Bai's words were full of sarcasm in everyone's ears, but Bai didn't care what others thought, only stared at Chu Zhenzhen: "My Fei'er is also in the sky, Zhenzhen, you should pray a few words in front of your mother, let her not bully my daughter, otherwise, I won't let her daughter go......"

Chu Zhenzhen looked at the Bai family in dismay: "Grandmother ......"

"I'm not your grandmother!" Bai Shi screamed strangely, saw the strange eyes of others, calmed down again, gathered the clothes in front of him, and looked at Chu Zhenzhen with a smile: "I heard that you are going to get married in a few days, I calculated, at that time, your mother was just past the first seven, a good day, a good day, it was really a good day." ”

No one else spoke, but she got married after her biological mother died, what would outsiders think?

Chu Zhenzhen can't care about these now, she only knows that the longer this matter drags on, the more mistakes will be, and she can't make any mistakes now, otherwise her life will be over.

"Grandmother, this is the emperor's holy decree, and Zhen Zhen dare not disobey it. Believe in the Mother in the Heavenly Spirit. I also hope to use Zhen Zhen to get married, to drive away the bad luck of Chu Mansion in the past six months, and bless Chu Mansion to be safe. Chu Zhenzhen's eyes were red, and she looked righteous and awe-inspiring.

Bai Shi looked at her and laughed: "I really didn't underestimate you, you are sharp-toothed, just like before, even now you are also a dirty body, the prince is still willing to marry you, and I also admire the kindness of the prince of Xiaoyao." "The Bai clan also lost the King of Xiaoyao, anyway, their Dingguo Mansion is following the prince.

Everyone else is watching with great interest, and such a lively scene is not usually seen.

Bai is talking about Zhenghuan here, Chu Bingsong also happened to come over, and when he heard these words, his face was dark: "Duchess Guo, since you have cut off the relationship with my wife, what does it mean to come over and dress up in a festive dress now?" ”

"Saying this, it seems that Prime Minister Chu is stingy." Bai smiled and looked at Chu Bingsong: "I also came here to find out that Qin Xue died, if I had known earlier, maybe I would have investigated how she died, maybe someone disliked her and killed her directly......"

"Madam Qin!" Chu Bingsong was already annoyed, but he was a little panicked in his heart.

The Bai family is also a good person, but he doesn't want to interfere in Chu Bingsong's affairs: "But now that the person has entered the coffin, I won't disturb her purity anymore." This time, I came here to send makeup to the two young ladies of Chu Mansion. Why do you only see the second lady and not the eldest lady? ”

Chu Bingsong didn't want her to see Chu Xi at all: "Chu Xi suffered from the wind cold after coming back last night and has fallen ill, so I don't bother Mrs. to go over in person......"

"Then I'm going to have to check it out." After that, he turned his head and walked away on his own, Chu Bingsong didn't stop her from his head, looked at the back of her leaving, gritted his teeth, these were all recruited by Qin Xue, and now that Qin Xue is dead, how can these people still be ghosted!

"Father, grandmother said ......"

"She's not your grandmother!" Chu Bingsong said excitedly, seeing the surprised looks of others, he glanced at Chu Zhenzhen coldly, and then turned his head to greet the guests who came to pay their respects. Now that the emperor has ordered that the two daughters of the Chu family be married into the palace and the Hou mansion, the officials in the capital, whether they want to climb the palace or the prince's mansion, naturally dare not slack off, and a lot of them have come.

Chu Zhenzhen looked at him and turned around, but still asked, "Father, what about Brother Hong, hasn't he changed to his mother's name, why is he not here now?" ”

Chu Bingsong forgot about this stubble: "Brother Hong'er is too sad, and he will come over later." With that, he turned around and left.

When Chu Zhenzhen heard this, she was so angry that she directly threw a handful of dark paper in her hand into the brazier.

Chu Xi faintly listened to Xiao Fu'er talking about the situation in the front yard, listening to the noise in the front yard, and looked calm.

Qin Xue's death had been predicted, so she was not surprised.

"Is Haruka feeling better?" Chu Ji asked Xiao Fu'er.

Xiao Fu'er sighed lightly and sat down on one side: "I'm still sad about Sister Bai Xue's affairs, didn't Miss set her a wedding date in the middle of this month, but now it's the beginning of the month, but she doesn't have any heart to prepare." ”

"She's scared." Aunt Fu just brought the soup over, and said with a helpless smile: "Miss Chunzhi knows at a glance that she is a delicate person and thinks a lot, but now that Miss Bai and Mother Jiang are gone, she is inevitably afraid that after marrying into her husband's family, without the protection of Miss, she will not be able to cope with it alone." ”

"You know Harue." Xiao Fu'er said on the side.

Aunt Fu glanced at her, turned her head and went out again.

Chu Xi sat on the edge of the bed, holding the soup and drinking it with a pair, but Lu Ya took the list of people to take away: "Miss, take a look, but who else do you want to bring?" ”

Chu Xi looked at it, glanced at the nervous Xiao Fu'er, and said, "Uncle Fu, why don't you have him?" ”

Uncle Fu is Xiao Fu'er's father, and when Xiao Fu'er heard this, he immediately became nervous: "Miss, my father can't do any heavy work, and he is not smart, you won't dislike him." ”

Lu Tan directly flicked her forehead with his finger: "What are you thinking, your father's deed of sale is in the master's hands." ”

When Chu Ji heard this, she thought about it, turned her head and said, "Green Sprouts, tomorrow you go to the front yard to ask for Uncle Fu's deed of sale." ”

"But will the master give it?"

"Yes." Chu Xi seemed to think of something, Wan'er. Chu Bingsong was afraid of wolves and tigers before, but now he is a frightened bird without protection, such a person is best dealt with.

Green Sprouts responded, and a few people were discussing what else to prepare, when news came from outside that the Bai family was here.

Chu Xi was surprised that the Bai family came so late, if it was earlier, she would definitely not let go of the opportunity to torture Qin Xue, Chu Bingsong killed Qin Xue last night, it was really her blessing.

A few girls hurriedly cleaned up and stood up, while Chu Xi was lying on the bed with a warm towel on her forehead.

As soon as Bai Shi came in, he saw Chu Xi like this, thinking that she was really sick.

"You're just sick, you don't have to kneel for her to keep filial piety." Bai sat down on his own.

Chu Xi opened her eyes and looked at her: "Duchess Guo is here, but what's the matter?" ”

"It's not a big deal, it's just to come over and give you some makeup gifts." After that, he immediately asked someone to carry four or five boxes in, and each of them looked heavy.

Chu Xi raised her eyebrows slightly, didn't this Bai clan calculate himself with Zhao Xunyan some time ago......

"Thank you, Duchess ......"

"Call me grandmother."

Chu Xi chuckled: "Since the Guogong Mansion has severed relations with her mother, she naturally doesn't dare to scream." Is there anything else going on with the Duchess? ”

Chu Xi has obviously given an eviction order, the Bai family is not broad-minded, and she is not a big enmity with her, but there are also some small festivals, she will never give such a gift for no reason.

When Bai Shi heard this, his smile turned cold: "You don't seem to welcome Mrs. Ben over......"

Lu Ya said on the side: "Miss is sick, her body feels very tired, and she didn't even go to guard the lady's mourning hall. ”

When Bai Shi heard this, he only said: "You girls are as sharp as you, no wonder the side concubine always says that she wants to ask one to go back to serve, I also like it tightly, if I don't know that you are distressed, I also want to ask you for a back." ”

Chu Xi chuckled, it turned out that he came over for Jiang Fan.

"What else did Concubine Jiang ask you to bring to me?" Chu Xi asked.

Bai looked at her with a smile: "It's really smart, you can guess the purpose of my coming at once." After that, he turned his head and took out a scroll of paintings and gave it to her: "This is what Concubine Fang asked me to bring to you, and I also said, I like the green sandalwood girl around you very much, if you don't mind, send the green sandalwood over, in this way, she doesn't have to send this painting to Su Guifei." ”

Chu Xi frowned slightly, Bai Xue looked at her like this, and her mood was much better. She didn't want to be an enemy of Chu Hao, she sent a gift, she listened to Qin Hao, in order to curry favor with the Marquis of Anping, and to help Jiang Fan, she just left a way out for herself, and by the way, she just watched Chu Xi eat deflated.

Bai Shi stood up, walked up to Chu Xi, looked at the green sandalwood with a black face, and said with a smile: "You also listen to my advice, since the side concubine likes this girl, you should send it over earlier, otherwise Lin Shizi will be embarrassed by then, right?" For the sake of a girl, the side concubine was unhappy, but now she is pregnant with the dragon grandson, in case there is a bad pool, the emperor will blame it, and he must not drag down the Chu Mansion and the Hou Mansion? In this world, I'm afraid there is no daughter-in-law who likes to bring trouble. ”

Lu Tan was so angry that he couldn't do it, but he also knew that he couldn't choke with the Bai family at this time.

Bai Shi looked at her like this, and his heart blossomed more and more. As for Lu Tan, there will definitely be trouble in the past, and when the time comes, it will be blamed, isn't it the Chu family who suffers......

Sending the Bai family away, Lu Tan sat on the side angrily: "What kind of person does she treat me, she will send it when she says it, who do you think she is, I am not rare to serve any delicate prince and concubine, and I don't weigh myself." ”

Green Sandalwood crackled and vented, Xiao Fu'er smiled: "We are all slaves, how can we choose......"

"I'm not a little girl!"

"And what are you?"

Lu Tan was stunned, looked at Chu Xi's faint eyes, calmed down a lot, and pouted: "I am the eldest girl next to Miss, Miss must be reluctant to me." ”

"Where can Miss deal with Concubine Fang......" Xiao Fu'er was about to say, but Chu Xi said: "Don't worry, it's not you who want to leave, no one can take you away." ”

When Lu Tan heard this, he was relieved, and his eyes suddenly shifted to the picture scroll in Chu Xi's hand: "Miss, do you want to open it and take a look?" ”

"Hmm." Chu Xi thought for a while, but nodded. What does Jiang Fan mean by threatening himself with Concubine Su?

Just when Chu Xi couldn't figure it out, the picture scroll was spread out, and when they saw that it was actually Chu Xi's portrait, everyone was stunned: "Who painted this, it's so beautiful." ”

Chu Xi in the painting is wearing a plain long dress. The face is slightly annoyed, but the vivid and vivid between the eyebrows and eyes is very moving, even if it is a little angry, it also makes people feel very girlish.

Chu Xi looked at the seal under the scroll, and her face darkened.

"Green sandalwood, take it and burn it!"

"Burned?" Lu Tan was puzzled, and when he saw the seal at the bottom, he suddenly understood, his face became serious, and he turned his head and took out the scroll and tore it to pieces, and then threw it into the brazier and burned it clean.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became serious, and even Xiao Fu'er knew what the seal under the scroll meant.

"Where did the disciple come from, he quietly painted the portrait of the young lady, if this spreads, wouldn't it ruin the reputation of the young lady!" Xiao Fu'er said angrily.

Lu Tan glanced at her: "This is no ordinary disciple, even if I want to break his leg." ”

"But ......"

"Okay, don't." Lu Tan interrupted her words and looked at Chu Xi: "Miss, why don't you just let me go to the Prince's Mansion, and I'll teach them a good lesson!" ”

Xiao Fu'er covered her mouth in shock: "Yes, it's the Prince's Mansion......"

"Shhhh......hh ”

"Then the Prince's Mansion ......"

"Don't worry, Jiang Fan won't do anything, as for the crown prince......" Chu Xi frowned: "When I marry into the Hou Mansion, it should be fine." Rest assured. ”

"Yes." A few maids answered sullenly, and only prayed in their hearts that God would hurry up to the wedding day.

Chu Xi used the name of serious illness to let people smoke wormwood in the yard, and after thinking for a while, no one would come, so he quietly went out of the house with Lu Tan.

Now that the victims in the city have gradually been settled, she thinks that Yang Mansion should be about to go out of the city to control the water, so she still has to meet someone.

Yang Ci was in Yang's mansion at this time, locked himself in the study, and didn't want to go out.

Someone knocked on the door, and Yang Ci finally ran out of patience: "I said I don't want to eat or drink anything, can you let me calm down for a while!" There was more helplessness in his tone.

The maid outside said timidly: "Back to the young general, the slave is here to tell you that there are people outside the mansion who want to see you." ”

"Someone asking to see you?" Yang Ci immediately thought of Chu Xi, hurriedly put down the book in his hand, and hurriedly opened the door of the study: "What kind of person is it?" ”

"It's two girls with black weft hats, and they say they're the only ones who see you."

When Yang Ci heard this, he didn't even have time to take the cloak, so he hurriedly ran out.

Before he left, Yang Ying walked out on the side, and the girl ring who followed behind her was still holding a soup: "Miss, this soup ......"

Yang Ying was full of jealousy, ignored the girl, and chased after her, but before she could keep up, she heard Yang Qianxiu's voice.

"Ying'er, why are you going?"

"I'm going to find Brother Ci." Yang Ying couldn't hide the jealousy on her face.

Yang Qianxiu saw this. sighed lightly in his heart, but said: "You can't always stick to him, he also has his own affairs, he is now a young man, it is the time to establish meritorious deeds, how can he stay in the house all day long and accompany you all day?" ”

"I didn't let him stay with me." Yang Ying was a little annoyed: "I just want me to accompany him, he can ignore me and do whatever he wants." ”

Listening to her duplicitous words, Yang Qianxiu didn't know what to say, but said: "You go to your grandmother's place first, accompany your grandmother, you haven't been to see it for a long time." ”

"But ......"

"Obedient!" Yang Qianxiu's tone was a little serious, Yang Ying knew that he was deliberately defending Yang Ci, and tears appeared in his eyes: "You all bully me, I hate you!" With that, he turned around and ran towards his yard.

Yang Qianxiu watched her leave, and then looked at the direction Yang Ci left, and sighed again in his heart, but he could only turn his head and leave.

Yang Ci ran to the front door excitedly, and when he saw that it was really Chu Xi, some fine sweat broke out in his palms, and he stepped forward and smiled: "Big sister, why are you here." ”

"Take you to meet someone." Chu Ji smiled, looked at the fact that there was no Yang Ying behind him, and was surprised.

Yang Ci said: "Who are you going to see?" I'm going to lead the horse now? ”

"Not necessarily. Don't be too ostentatious, come with us in a carriage and leave. Chu Ji said.

Yang Ci bowed slightly, followed Chu Xi and the others into the carriage, and saw the carriage quickly go out of the city.

If it was still early today, the carriage was still quite bright, but Yang Ci never dared to look up at Chu Xi.

However, Chu Xi felt that it was okay, so she naturally asked, "When can the prince say that he will let General Yang leave?" ”

"I left in three days, and now the homeless people in the capital are almost settled, except for small fights, there is no big deal, and I will go with my grandfather when the time comes." Yang Ci smiled, his eyes lit up, he felt that as long as he could do something beneficial to the people, he would be happy.

As soon as Chu Xi heard that he had also passed, her palms tightened slightly: "You are also gone, what about the Yang Mansion?" ”

"There's a third uncle here, it's okay." Yang Ci was very relieved, but Chu Xi was not at ease.

There are only a few people left in the Yang family now, General Yang has been in the court for so many years, he is familiar with the rules of the court, but he is not good at intrigue, Yang Ci is even more fledgling, only Yang Qianxiu, who is crippled at home, is the most understanding of people's hearts among these people, and now these three people are separated, but anyone who has a heart has to do something. The Yang Mansion is about to collapse at the touch of a button, which is too risky.

"How could the prince let you go, the officials who control the water are much more mature and experienced than you." Let General Yang pass, Chu Xi can figure it out, after all, he is a confidant and a trustworthy person.

Yang Ci looked at her and said, "The prince said that my grandfather and I are relatives, I will not intrigue, and I can also give the disaster relief money to the people, and it is best for me to go with my grandfather." ”

Chu Xi frowned slightly, could it be that the prince wanted to use the Yang Mansion to attract someone? But it's too dangerous.

Seeming to perceive Chu Xi's worries, Yang Ci laughed: "Don't worry, the prince has also taken these into account, as soon as my grandfather and I leave, the third uncle, grandmother and Ying'er will temporarily move to the prince's mansion to live, and nothing will happen." ”

Chu Xi sighed lightly, but didn't say more, and saw the person for a while, let's talk about it.

The carriage hurried out of the city, and did not stop until it was nearly dark.

Yang Ci jumped out of the carriage and looked at the unfamiliar town, a little surprised: "Big sister, what kind of place is this?" ”

Chu Xi didn't answer. He took the veiled hat and gave it to him.

Lu Tan argued and said, "Follow me." With that, he headed for a narrow alley.

Yang looked at Chu Xi in confusion, but Chu Xi didn't seem to have the meaning to explain, so several people went forward together, walked around the alley, and finally found a brand-new mansion hidden in this pile of dilapidated houses, and there was no plaque on the house.

Lu Tan stepped forward and knocked on the door, and after a while, a little boy came out of it: "Who are you?" ”

"We are the old people of your master."

"The deceased? My master doesn't have any old people, I'm afraid you're looking for the wrong person. The little boy said that he was about to close the door, but he was kicked against the door by Lu Tan: "I said that it is an old man, if you don't believe it, ask your master to come and see you." ”

"You are so unreasonable, I can warn you, we are not easy to mess with." After that, he beckoned four or five big men to come over, and as soon as the big man came, he raised his hand to catch the green sandalwood, and the green sandalwood directly kicked the big man to the ground.

"Auntie, I'm not easy to mess with." Lu Tan put down the next sentence, and after a while, the five big men were all thrown to the ground, these people are nothing more than some brute strength, where can they be against Lu Tan, who has rich combat experience and has increased a lot of internal strength.

Hearing such a loud noise, a person finally came out of it, but Yang Ci looked at the person in surprise, it was actually a bald monk wearing a gorgeous silk robe.

"It's ......"

"Who are you?" Huineng was running errands, but when he heard the noise, he hurried out.

Chu Xi looked at him, there was a shadow between his eyebrows, and he looked kind, but where was this monk who worshiped the Buddha, he was obviously an obscene old man who was overindulgent.

"You don't need to know who I am, but we know you, Master Huineng, you are not good at chanting and chanting Buddha, and you will do something that insults your Buddhism, no wonder you were expelled from Hanshan Temple back then!" Green Sandalwood said disdainfully.

Seeing that they knew themselves, Hui Neng hurriedly folded his hands and recited the sentence Amitabha, saying: "A few donors come over, there must be something to ask the poor monks for help, so let's talk about it, please go inside first." ”

Chu Xi looked at him with long white eyebrows and white beard, but admired his ability to play on the spot, which was much stronger than his apprentice's clear space.

Chu Xi walked in front, and Huineng was beside her, constantly raising her eyes to look at her, trying to recognize who she was, but the shadowy face in the veil hat didn't seem to know each other.

"Have we ever met this benefactor?"

"Never." Chu Xi responded lightly.

"Then you look for me......"

"The master must remember the clearance." Chu Xi stopped and looked at him, Huineng was stunned, and his eyes flashed with panic, but he immediately regained his calm: "Jingkong is my apprentice, I heard that some time ago, he suddenly died of illness in the capital, hey......"

Chu Xi looked at his calm appearance and smiled: "Before Master Pure Space died, he told me a lot of things. ”

"Oh? Is it? Huineng's face was a little tense: "What did he say to the female benefactor?" ”

Chu Xi smiled lightly: "It's not a big deal, it's just about cheating in the rivers and lakes with Master Huineng...... Oh no, it's a matter of doing good deeds and accumulating virtues, eliminating disasters and solving problems for others, and ......"

"What else?" Huineng stared at Chu Xi nervously, but only saw a pair of calm eyes in the veil.

"And Master Huineng, why was he expelled from Hanshan Temple, and why he didn't set foot in the capital for so many years." Chu Xi said lightly.

When Huineng heard this, he calmed down suddenly: "Don't listen to his nonsense. "Clearance doesn't know how he got kicked out of the mountain.

Chu Ji smiled lightly: "Master Huineng thinks he doesn't know, but in fact, he knows more than the master, for example, when Master Huineng violated a female pilgrim because he was greedy for the appearance of a female pilgrim, the female pilgrim committed suicide in the temple." And their family is the ...... of the capital."

"Alright." Huineng interrupted her: "There is no evidence, the female benefactor should pay attention to what she says, and even the government can't convict her based on a few unfounded words." ”

Seeing that Huineng was annoyed, Yang Ci was still skeptical, but now he also believes it.

Chu Xi didn't panic at all, and only said lightly: "How does the master know that I have no evidence?" There is no physical evidence, and there are witnesses, but although the female benefactor's family did not make any more noise, why should the master believe that if you are sent to them, they will definitely spare your life? ”

Huineng knew now that Chu Ji didn't come to drink tea and beg him for help, she was clearly here to threaten him!

"Do you think that just the three of you still want to get out of me now?" Hui Neng smiled and walked backwards, and a dozen big men quickly surrounded the three of them.

If Lu Tan was alone, naturally there would be no way to protect Chu Xi and retreat, but there was a young general who came today.

Yang Ci and Lu Tan both drew their swords, and Lu Tan pouted: "Old bald donkey, you will regret it." ”

Huineng smiled coldly: "Amitabha, the poor monk's small house shouldn't have seen blood, but you want to come here to stir up trouble, but you can't complain about the poor monk." ”

"Phew. You fake monk! Lu Tan directly raised his sword, and Yang Ci also tightly protected Chu Xi's side and said, "Big sister, you ...... escape first" After saying that, he kicked away the big man who came over waving a stick.

Chu Xiwan said softly: "What are you still watching?" ”

Huineng listened to his words, and the second monk was puzzled, but suddenly a black shadow floated in front of him, and after a while, his own people were pointed, and all of them fell to the ground.

"Awesome!" Lu Tan praised the secret guard of Wuji Pavilion, and the man only bowed his hand to Chu Xi, and then returned to the dark place.

Lu Tan looked at the stunned Huineng, and smiled: "You raise people, so you can also raise some people with kung fu foundation, such a group of brute things, it's not enough to stuff your teeth, this girl feels uncomfortable, why don't you come and fight with me?" ”

Huineng retreated again and again: "No, no, no......" After saying that, he turned his head and ran, shouting while running, but it was only a cup of tea, and he was hung upside down on the corridor with a rope by green sandalwood.

Chu Xi sat on one side, quietly looking at the scenery in the courtyard, but Yang Ci didn't know what to do.

Lu Tan took the sword and gestured around on him: "You said that you, an old monk, don't chant scriptures all day long. Not to mention the abduction and deception, but also to harm the woman of the good family, why don't you let your aunt and grandmother make you dust-free and clean, how about chopping off the root of your troubles? ”

Huineng was excited, hurriedly covered her hands, and looked at her begging for mercy: "Grandma, just let me go." ”

Yang Ci listened to Lu Tan's sudden words, and turned his head with a flushed face and didn't dare to listen to it again.

Lu Tan pouted: "If you dare to be disrespectful to our young lady, if you dare to say half a word more in your heart, I will fulfill you!" ”

Huineng was hung upside down, his face was flushed, and he shook his head busily: "Don't dare, aunts and grandmothers, if you have anything to say, I will promise anything......"

"Say anything?" Chu Xi became interested, and planned to let Lu Tan bully him for a while.

Huineng nodded hurriedly, and Chu Xi asked with a smile: "I want all your savings for so many years?" ”

"All your savings!" Huineng rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, everything in my house can be given to you......"

"What do you think, we can think clearly about how many houses you have." Lu Tan held the sword and gestured at him, and Hui Neng was frightened: "Are you robbers?" ”

Lu Tan laughed, and threatened him in a low voice: "We are a human meat bun shop, so we like an old monk like you, chop you into meat puree to make buns and feed them to the dogs......"

Yang Ci couldn't help laughing, and Huineng laughed when he saw them. Thinking that this was the case, Amitabha Buddha begged the Bodhisattva for blessing at the beginning of the year.

"You don't usually recite the Buddha, but now you ask the Bodhisattva to bless you, and the Bodhisattva wants to bless you like this." Lu Tan smiled and put his sword against his eyebrows: "You have a total of thirty-two houses, and we don't want much......

"Two?"

"Thirty-one, we won't want this little place." Lu Tan said seriously: "We also want the gold, silver and jewelry you cheated, it's useless for you to report to the official, we are from the government, and we are here to rob you on behalf of the imperial court." Lu Tan looked like a ruffian, and asked Yang Ci to take out a talisman that could transfer troops, Yang Ci looked at it, worried that it would involve Chu Xi in the imperial court, and looked at Chu Xi in embarrassment: "This ......"

Chu Xi got up, looked at Huineng with a smile behind her back: "My girl is very cruel, if you don't agree, your head will hit the ground in the next second." ”

"I ......" Huineng gritted his teeth ruthlessly: "If you kill me, I can only give you half of it, and I will give it all to you, which is almost the same as killing me!" ”

Chu Xi chuckled: "Then what if I don't want half of your treasure and let you do something for me?" ”

"What's going on?"

"It's simple, what you do." Chu Xi said with a smile.

"Liar?"

"That's right." Chu Xi smiled.

When Huineng heard this, he nodded hurriedly: "Okay, I promise you, but you must do what you say." "Wanguan family property and deceiving people must be obviously just a trivial matter.

"Don't worry." Chu Xiwan'er let Lu Tan put him down.

Huineng said: "Okay, you say, who are you fooling?" He said as he untied the rope from his wrist.

"Not alone." Chu Xi said lightly.

"A group of people?"

Chu Ji didn't say anything more to him, but said, "You take the title deeds of all your houses first, and I will return them to you after the matter is completed......"

"Why ......?"

Before Huineng's words were finished, Lu Tan lightly turned his long sword, Huineng's belt broke, and he was stunned and didn't dare to move: "Woman, aren't you embarrassing me?" ”

"If you don't want to do this, I can kill you and find someone to pretend to be, but I think it's too troublesome, so I come to you directly. If you don't want to, I can only trouble a little bit......" Chu Xi looked at him and said leisurely, Hui Neng couldn't wait to slap the table and ask the sky, why did such a fatal thing suddenly come.

"Take half of it and go ......"

"Or kill ......"

"Okay, good, it's all for you!"

……

After Lu Tan got a thick pile of house deeds, he was full of excitement: "Miss, let's buy these houses, why worry about red makeup?" ”

Chu Xi glanced at her lightly and looked at Hui Neng behind her: "Master, you should think carefully about what I just told you, and I will discuss the details with you tomorrow." ”

Hui Neng wanted to cry without tears, he knew that Chu Xi was asking him to deceive those royal relatives and nobles, he would rather them take away his general property, but now all the house deeds have been taken away......

"This female benefactor deceived those nobles in the palace, but she wanted to destroy the ...... of the nine clans"

"You have nine clans?" Lu Tan couldn't laugh, but he was shocked to find a woman with messy hair lying on the wall, and chased after him.

Huineng saw that Lu Tan had entered the courtyard, his whole body was cold, and he hurriedly said to Chu Xi: "I promise you, I will cooperate with you, but you can't say anything about you!" ”

Chu Xi looked at the courtyard strangely, the abbot's letter did not mention this, thinking that it was Huineng himself who created it.

"Green sandalwood." Chu Xi called.

Lu Tan hesitated for a long time before coming back, and when he came back, he looked like he was going to eat Huineng, but he didn't say a word with a cold face.

Chu Xi looked at Hui Neng: "Does the master believe in cause and effect?" ”

Huineng's face was slightly gloomy, but he sneered disdainfully: "The reincarnation of cause and effect is just a word that mortals make to intimidate people, in this world, where there is any good and evil in the end, there is a cycle of cause and effect." ”

Chu Xi looked at him like this, and only lightly pulled the corners of his mouth. She is the best example of the cycle of cause and effect, so how many evil Hui Neng has done in this world, she believes that sooner or later there will be retribution.

Chu Xi was leaving, and Lu Tan hesitated a little: "Miss, ...... there"

"Let's talk about it later." Chu Xi said that, and left with the green sandalwood, because she was when the green sandalwood climbed over the wall. saw the determination of Huineng's eyes to break the net.

Several people came out of the narrow alley, and Yang Ci felt that someone was following all the time: "Big sister, someone is following." ”

"It doesn't matter." Chu Xi took the people into the carriage and said directly: "The carriage will go directly to the Xiaoyao Mansion and go around a few circles." ”

The carriage began to run, and those who followed did not dare to follow blatantly, and followed on their feet.

Lu Tan grabbed Chu Xi and looked at her: "I saw a woman in the courtyard who broke her leg, and she said that she was from the capital......

There is no need for Lu Tan to continue, Chu Xi already knows who that person is.
