Chapter 282: Someone Secretly Protects

Chu Ruoyao looked at Li Luobing and nodded: "It's true, and there are not a few such things, it's just that there are too many things accumulated now, and I just happened to be sober again, and the emperor was worried about the backlash of the people, so he sent me to gnaw this hard bone."

The two talked all the way and finally returned to Dali Temple.

After Liu Shangbiao left Dali Temple, he returned to his house. As soon as he entered the room, he slammed the file in his hand on the table and sat down on the side in a huff. The servant on the side saw him so angry, and hurriedly stepped forward to beat his legs and rub his shoulders.

"My lord, why are you angry today?" The servant asked cautiously.

Hearing the servant's inquiry, Liu Shangbiao remembered Chu Ruoyao's expression again, and he waved his hand extremely impatiently.

"It's nothing, you don't have to ask." Rubbing his shoulders halfway, the henchman sent out by Liu Shangbiao came back, and as soon as he saw this person, Liu Shangbiao immediately pulled everyone back.

"How's it going, what's the news?" Liu Shangbiao asked his henchmen anxiously.

The slave had already inquired that the family was preparing to move out of the capital, as if they were going to live in the suburbs, and they were disheartened because of something. As for the killers sent before. None of them came back, and the family was fine, there should be someone secretly protecting them. Liu Shangbiao sat down after listening.

Although he felt sorry for the killers sent in the past, he felt a little pity, but if the family left the capital and never came back, it would also be a matter of solving a problem, in case he really did it and was discovered, he would be the one who suffered in the end.

"Okay, you go and get in touch with the people over there and tell the news." After Liu Shangbiao confessed a few words to his henchman, the henchman nodded and left.

After Liu Shangbiao's henchmen left the house, they walked through several alleys and stopped in front of a door. He looked left and right to see that there was no one, and then reached out and knocked on the door a few times regularly. Then there was a small crack in the door of the courtyard, and he walked in and closed the door casually, and when he turned his head, a man in black was standing in the courtyard looking at him.

Although this has happened many times, he will still tremble a little when he sees this person. He calmed down, endured the fear in his heart, and said Liu Shangbiao's words to him.

Liu Shangbiao said that the man was already preparing to move out of the capital, so there was no need to trouble him again. If he comes back, then kill him, and if he doesn't come back, let him fend for himself outside, which will also be good for His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

After the henchman finished speaking, he saw the man in black nodding and disappeared in front of him in an instant. He breathed a sigh of relief and found that he was in a cold sweat, and then left the courtyard and went back to report to Liu Shangbiao. After the henchman came back, Liu Shangbiao learned that he had said his words, so he rewarded the henchman with a few ingots of silver, and the henchman left with a thousand thanks.

After this matter was resolved, Liu Shangbiao's whole person relaxed, he was always worried that Chu Ruoya would hold his handle because of this, so he was also lacking in confidence when facing Chu Ruoyao before, for fear that Chu Ruoya would find him at that time.

Although he heard that Li Luobing and Chu Ruoyan had seen Liu Yi that day, it seemed that Liu Yi did not tell them the specific situation, otherwise Chu Ruoyan would not let him go so easily, and he also vaguely knew that the killer he sent before should be related to King Yan, he did not tell the prince Chu Ruoyan about this matter, if he said the wrong thing, he might lose his life. This is a struggle between princes, and if he can not participate, he will not participate, as long as he has the silver.

The man in black quickly reported what Liu Shangbiao's henchman said to the prince, and after hearing it, Chu Ruoyan felt that this matter was not as simple as he imagined.

"If this matter is not for King Yan to make trouble from the middle, then Liu Yi will definitely not be able to leave the capital willingly." Chu Ruoyan said viciously.

Liu Shangbiao thinks simply and is easy to be deceived, but he is different. Since Chu Ruoyan got better, he has been paying attention to Chu Ruoyao's actions, and his actions are all in his eyes, whether Chu Zhuangyan asked Chu Ruoyan to approve the excerpts or let him go to Dali Temple, Chu Ruoyan felt that it was a threat to himself.

"Prince, what should we do then?" He Yuanzhong asked Chu Ruoyan. He has been following the prince's side, watching Chu Ruoyan go from being favored to being unfavored now, and even the position of the prince is in jeopardy, he is also thinking about his future, but the things he has done have been firmly tied to Chu Ruoyan, and it is very difficult to leave.

Chu Ruoyan noticed the change in He Yuanzhong, he turned his head to look at it, He Yuanzhong was shocked, could it be that his thoughts just now were seen by the prince? He immediately put on a respectful face and bowed his head to the prince.

Chu Ruoyan looked at him for a long time, but in the end he still didn't speak, now many things still need to be done by He Yuanzhong, not the time to deal with him.

"You go to Yanwang's Mansion."

"Yan Wangfu? King Yan and Princess Yan are no longer there? He Yuanzhong wondered.

"That's right," Chu Ruoyan thought about it, "Then go to Dali Temple, just say that the prince is bored, and decided to invite them to come to the prince's mansion to enjoy the flowers, and then go out to play together." ”

He Yuanzhong was a little hesitant when he heard it, what if King Yan didn't come? The relationship between the prince and King Yan should not be good enough to play together!

"Prince, what if King Yan doesn't come?"

"Then you say that Prince Ben feels that the brothers have not seen each other for a long time, and the relationship is getting shallower and shallower, so he specially invited King Yan and Princess Yan to come over." Chu Ruoyan thought for a while and said. What he did was so open-minded, if King Yan didn't come, he would definitely leave a handle on others, and it was impossible for Chu Ruoyao to do such a thing, so even if he didn't want to, he would definitely come.

He Yuanzhong nodded after listening to Chu Ruoyan's words, took the letter that Chu Ruoyan had prepared before, and went to Dali Temple with it in his arms. When he reached the door, he looked at the guards standing on either side of the door, a little nervous. When I came here before, the guards at the door were all Liu Shangbiao's people, and I could walk in without reporting at all, but now......

He took a few steps forward, and as soon as he stepped up the steps, two guards stopped in front of him.

"Who's coming?"

"I'm here to find His Royal Highness King Yan." He Yuanzhong said with a smiling face.

"If you have a grievance, beat the drum first, if not, say who your surname is, what is the purpose, I will help you report." Although the guard's expression was serious, what he said was still very reasonable.

When He Yuanzhong heard this, he hurriedly took out the letter and handed it over: "I came here on the order of the prince, and this is the prince's handwriting." ”

After the two guards took the letter, one of them walked in with the letter, and the other stood back at the door of the Dali Temple. He Yuanzhong didn't dare to follow up rashly, so he could only wander back and forth at the gate of Dali Temple.

Not long after, the guard walked out: "King Yan has an order, let you go in and meet, come with me!" When He Yuanzhong heard the news, he hurriedly followed behind the guards and walked into Dali Temple.

When Li Ruobing and Chu Ruoyao were in the house, a guard came to report that He Yuanzhong, the personal eunuch next to the prince, had come to see them outside the gate of Dali Temple.

Li Luobing looked at Chu Ruoyao: "What is he doing here?" Chu Ruoyan shook her head, and she didn't know what the prince thought.

"Your Highness, there is also a letter here, saying that the crown prince wants to hand it over to you."

The guard stretched out his hand and handed over the letter, Chu Ruoyan took it and opened it to take a look, and the content inside was to invite the two of them to the prince's mansion for a small gathering. After reading the letter, he handed it to Li Luobing next to him, and Li Luobing was also very puzzled after reading it.

The relationship between them and the crown prince can be said to be the same as fire and water, and they usually don't like it in the court, let alone get together, which is simply impossible. But today's letter, after Chu Ruoyan read it, it was indeed the handwriting of the crown prince Chu Ruoyan. What does this prince think?

"Then invite someone in!" After reading it, Chu Ruoyan put the letter aside and instructed the guard. After Li Luobing waited for the guards to leave, he hurriedly asked Chu Ruoyi.

"What do you think the prince is for?"

Chu Ruoyan shook her head: "I don't know very well, I can only take one step at a time." We should know when that father-in-law comes in. ”

At this time, He Yuanzhong followed the guards and walked to the lobby, and from the lobby, he and the guards turned to the courtyard behind. After seeing Li Luobing and Chu Ruoyao sitting there waiting for him, he hurriedly stepped forward a few steps to salute the two.

"The villain He Yuanzhong has seen King Yan, Princess Yan."

"Get up!" Chu Ruozhen did not dictate to him because he was the person next to the prince, and his attitude was still very kind, and He Yuanzhong stood up after hearing Chu Ruoyao speak. sat down in the chair prepared for him. Chu Ruoyan glanced at him a few times, and then asked him.

"Why did the prince invite us to the palace to enjoy the flowers? Presumably the prince also understands in his heart what our relationship with him is, right? ”

He Yuanzhong had expected King Yan to say this before he came to Dali Temple, but he didn't expect it to be so direct as soon as he came up. After he was stunned for a moment, he thought of what Chu Ruoyan said to him, and hurriedly replied to Chu Ruoyan.

"The villain knows that the relationship between the prince and King Yan is not good, so the prince intends to improve the relationship with you, so he asked the villain to invite King Yan and Princess Yan to the prince's mansion as guests. The prince, thinking that they are all brothers, can't go on like this. ”

He Yuanzhong spoke very fluently this time, but it was always a fake tone in Chu Ruoyi's heart. He knows the crown prince best, and there must be some purpose for inviting the two of them, it can't be just to improve the relationship between brothers.
