Chapter 211: The Return of the Old Man
Chu Yanzhi lowered his head and stroked the smooth rim of the cup in his hand, but he didn't say a word for a long time.
"Your Highness." Gu Cheng couldn't help but shout again.
Chu Yanzhi looked up at Gu Cheng and suddenly smiled, "Compared to me, isn't the person you should be looking for the most King Qin?" ”
Gu Cheng's brows gradually twisted, he looked at Chu Yanzhi for a long time, and finally realized what he was talking about, so he hurriedly said, "Your Highness, I just brought that purse to King Qin for my sister." My sister is indeed infatuated with King Qin, but who knows what King Qin does to her? ”
"Ah Cheng, this palace has its own opinions on this matter, you don't have to ask again." Chu Yanzhi stroked the edge of the white porcelain cup in his hand, looked at Gu Cheng and said slowly.
Gu Cheng frowned, and looked at Chu Yanzhi in disbelief, "Your Highness......"
"Why, didn't you hear what Motogu said?" Chu Yan's eyes sank, and his gloomy eyes swept towards Gu Cheng.
Gu Cheng's face changed, as if he didn't expect Chu Yanzhi to be so ruthless, and he was stunned for a while.
"Ah Cheng, you go back first, don't worry, your sister will be fine." Seeing that Chu Yan's eyes were deep, Lu Haiyang also felt that something was wrong, but he still reached out and pulled Gu Cheng up from the ground.
Gu Chengjian looked at Chu Yanzhi, but saw that he didn't respond for a long time, and finally flicked his long sleeves, turned around and left with a body of anger.
As soon as Gu Cheng left, Chu Yanzhi looked at Lu Haiyang and smiled, and said, "You will say something to comfort him." ”
"Could it be that I am wrong?" Lu Haiyang raised his eyebrows and looked at Chu Yanzhi with a smile on his face.
Even if Xiao Xiwei went to Chongde Hall to point out to the emperor that Gu Qingyou was the murderer of Chu Tianye, however, Gu Qingyou was Gu An behind him, and now there is one more King Qin, if he wants to punish the crime if he is an ordinary emperor, he will be cured, but now the prince is alone, and the emperor wants to help Chu Tianye, the chess piece was also pulled out by the prince, then, King Qin, a chess piece that was not originally liked by him, he must keep it no matter what. What's more, the emperor knows better than anyone what the reason for the death of King Ning Chu Tianye.
Looking at Lu Haiyang's clear face, Chu Yanzhi smiled, "There are some things that you don't need to say in this palace, you can always have insight into your heart." ”
"But why didn't Your Highness tell Ah Cheng this?" Lu Haiyang asked.
Chu Yanzhi took a deep breath and stared down at the delicate plum blossom painted on the white porcelain teacup in his hand, "A few days ago, I heard that Ah Cheng had a fight with your eldest brother?" ”
Hearing Chu Yanzhi mention Lu Haichuan, Lu Haiyang frowned at first, and then, he thought that Chu Yanzhi would never mention such a sentence for no reason, and at the moment he couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in his heart, "Your Highness, is there anything wrong with this?" ”
Chu Yanzhi lowered his head and took a sip of tea.
The tea in the cup was already cold, and when I drank it, a bitterness spread from the tip of my tongue to my chest.
"There's nothing wrong with it, it's just ......"
It's just that the timing of the appearance is a little too inopportune.
"Your Highness, Ah Cheng has been upset and irritable recently, and he just happened to be bumped by Lu Haichuan that day, and he couldn't control his emotions for a while. Don't you know his character? Lu Haiyang frowned.
Chu Yanzhi looked at Lu Haiyang, and thought about Gu Cheng's anxious appearance just now, and the doubts in his heart disappeared all of a sudden.
Maybe he really thought about it. If Gu Chengzhen betrayed him for Gu Qingyou, he would not have come to him in such a hurry to plead.
Looking at the doubts that gradually dissipated in Chu Yan's eyes, Lu Haiyang lowered his eyes, a sneer flashed at the corner of his lips, and an imperceptible coldness crossed the bottom of his inky eyes.
Now, Chu Yanzhi is becoming more and more strange to him.
He was suspicious of Chengdu today, so he must be even more suspicious of him. After all, compared to Gu Cheng, he has done more and more complicated things for him. Thinking about it, now, he doesn't even care about the emperor, let alone their 'entourage' who follows him.
And Chu Yanzhi, who was trapped in his own contemplation, did not notice the flickering coldness in Lu Haiyang's eyes.
……
Chu Muzhi came out of the palace, returned to the mansion, just sat down, and was about to pour himself a cup of tea, when a voice suddenly sounded.
"I'm back."
Chu Muzhi was excited, and he stood up from the chair, and the hand holding the teapot shook, and the hot tea poured onto the back of his hand, his face twisted into a ball of pain, and he hurriedly put the teapot on the table.
"Poof." A chuckle forced to be sarcastic rang out.
Chu Muzhi covered his red, swollen and hot hands and looked at the visitor angrily.
Even if it wasn't that face in front of him, he knew who this person was without even thinking about it.
"Why are you back again?" Chu Muzhi frowned. As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something, hurriedly walked outside to take a look, and then raised his hand to close the door, "You are crazy, don't you know how much eyeliner Chu Yanzhi has put in my mansion right now?" ”
The person who came smiled, walked leisurely to Chu Muzhi's seat and sat down, then picked up the teacup just now, and poured two cups of tea elegantly. Seeing that Chu Muzhi was still stunned, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and said with a smile, "Didn't you want to drink tea just now?" ”
Looking at his indifferent appearance, Chu Muzhi became more and more annoyed, "Drink, drink, drink to death!" With that, he angrily walked to the side and sat down, and was about to reach out to pick up the teacup, but one hand reached over, "You do ......"
What the......
Before these two words could be spoken, a liquid poured down in mid-air, and then a slender hand gracefully put the empty teacup back on the table.
While picking up the teacup, the person who came gently blew into the teacup, and his slender eyes did not forget to sweep to Chu Muzhi's side, "I suddenly feel that His Royal Highness King Qin is not so thirsty. ”
As soon as these words came out, Chu Muzhi only felt as if someone had set a fire in his chest, and he stood up suddenly, "You two are enough!" I was just trained by your wife in Yongchun Palace, and I didn't even drink tea when I got home, and I was so angry with you that I smoked, you said! Didn't I owe you two husbands and wives in my last life? ”
It's a pity that His Royal Highness King Qin's anger did not arouse someone's sympathy and guilt, on the contrary, the smile on his face deepened, "Oh, I'm curious, how did Wei'er discipline you?" Can you tell me that again? ”
Looking at the sloppy smile on someone's face, Chu Muzhi was finally defeated, "Seventh brother, I beg you, I admit defeat, do I admit defeat?" ”
That's right.
Sitting next to Chu Muzhi at this time was Chu Xizhi, the king of Yan who had just returned from Sucheng.
"It's boring to throw in the towel so quickly." Chu Xizhi hooked the corners of his lips and poured a cup of tea for Chu Muzhi again.
Chu Muzhi took a sip of the teacup, and looked at Chu Xizhi with some concern, "Seventh brother, why are you back again?" You're not afraid to throw yourself into the net! ”
In the past, he didn't face Chu Yanzhi head-on, and Chu Yanzhi had been hiding behind the former prince Chu Jingzhi, so he didn't feel anything about it. And in the days when Chu Xizhi was away, he really felt that Chu Yanzhi's scheming was really unfathomable, taking this incident as an example, if it weren't for Gu Cheng's unbearable to see Gu Qingyou being implicated, he was afraid that Tianye would be unable to escape this time.
"Ye'er?" Chu Xizhi turned his head to look at Chu Muzhi, and his face became solemn.
If he hadn't known that the news of Ye'er's 'death' would reach his ears sooner or later, he believed that Xiwei would probably choose to hide the news from him.
Suppressed by the solemnity on Chu Xi's face, Chu Muzhi also put away the smile on his face, "Seventh brother, don't worry, Ye'er is in Xiangfu." You know, Chu Yanzhi's person is the most suspicious, whether it is Zhongyong Houfu or me, as long as everything is related to us, he is afraid of people staring at it, so the only relatively safe place in the capital is Xiangfu. ”
"Xiangfu?" Chu Xizhi's eyebrows couldn't help but raise, "You say, Xiang Mingxuan ......"
Chu Muzhi nodded, "If it weren't for him, I'm afraid that even if we knew Chu Yanzhi's plan, we wouldn't be able to steal Ye'er out of the palace." ”
Xiang Mingxuan was the deputy commander of the forbidden army, and with his help, they were able to transfer Ye'er out of the heavily guarded palace safely.
Listening to Chu Muzhi's words, a trace of complicated emotions crossed Chu Xizhi's eyes.
In such an emergency situation, she was able to maintain her composure and come up with a way to deal with it. Chu Xizhi didn't know whether he should be happy or sad. Obviously, at this time, he should stand up to protect their mother and son, but it seems that every time something happens, she always stands in front alone and carries it by herself.
"Seventh brother." Sensing the loss in Chu Xizhi's eyes, Chu Muzhi reached out and patted Chu Xizhi's shoulder and smiled at him.
Chu Xizhi raised his eyes and glanced at Chu Mu, then blinked, "I'm fine." ”
"Brother Qi, you are back this time...... Does the royal sister-in-law know? Chu Muzhi looked at Chu Xidao cautiously.
Chu Xizhi glanced at Chu Mu and raised his eyebrows.
Chu Muzhi cleared his throat and whispered, "Seventh brother, what's the use of you hiding it now, the imperial sister-in-law will know sooner or later." ”
"Then it's too late." Chu Xizhi looked at Chu Muzhi and said coldly, with a hint of threat in his tone.
Chu Muzhi pursed his lips, "Okay, you are the elder brother, you have the final say." Finally, he raised his head and said, "Seventh brother, you won't come back this time to act, right?" ”
Chu Xizhi frowned and swept Chu Muzhi from front to foot, "Do you think now is the time?" ”
Chu Muzhi frowned, sighed, and then muttered in a low voice, "Since you haven't acted yet, what are you doing when you run back?" Aren't you afraid of being discovered? ”
"If it weren't for the fact that you have a worrying IQ and can't afford it, how could I have put myself in this dangerous situation. Just your brain...... Read more books when you have time. Chu Xizhi's narrow eyes swept Chu Mu's eyes, and then turned around and walked towards the inner room, just two steps, he suddenly thought of something, "You think of a way, let me see Xiang Mingxuan." ”
"See Xiang Mingxuan? Brother Seven, what are you going to do? ”
Chu Xizhi frowned and glanced at Chu Mu, and then said, "What are you doing with so many questions?" Even if I tell you, with your IQ, are you sure you can understand it? ”
