Chapter 49: The Cycle of Cause and Effect
Su Chengle had just taken a few steps out of Liu Sihan's study, and a figure pounced on her and hugged her, she was startled and struggled: "What person!
"Cousin, it's me!" Liu Linyuan said in Su Chengle's ear, "I heard my mother say, we are going to be husband and wife, since we are husband and wife sooner or later, why should we be obsessed with etiquette now? Before the wedding, more contact is conducive to our cultivation of feelings, right?"
"You are so bold, my uncle is in the study. Su Chengle struggled and said, "If people see it, you don't want to be a man, I still want to be a man!"
"When I see it, I can see that I am holding my fiancΓ©e, can others take care of it!" Liu Linyuan said with a smile, "I fell in love with you a few years ago, but this girl has a high spirit, and she has never looked at me properly, and now it has finally fallen into my hands." You will be kind to me in the future, so that I can love you after the wedding!"
"You let go. Su Chengle's tears rolled in his eyes, "Since you are husband and wife sooner or later, why rush at this time, let your uncle see it, you will definitely have to scold." β
"Now you finally know that you're worried about me?" Liu Linyuan laughed, "This time, I'll let you go, anyway, we'll be in the future." β
He let go of the woman in his arms, turned her body, and let her face him, looking at this beautiful face, his heart couldn't help but ripple, his fingers gently swept over her face, and said: "You have become more and more beautiful in recent years, more beautiful than your sister." To be honest, I'm quite afraid that my mother will arrange for me to marry your sister, and I don't like that person, so you're different...... In the future, such a beauty will become my wife, to be honest, how can those women outside have one-ten-thousandth of your style!"
Su Chengle looked at the mediocre and obscene face in front of him, couldn't help but feel sick to his stomach, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile, and said: "Cousin, I still have things to deal with today, and I have to go back to the Hou Mansion to communicate with my mother, if I go back late, she will have to scold me a few words, I will leave first today, and I will see you next time." β
"For your sake, I'll let you go back this time, and we'll meet again next time. Liu Linyuan laughed, "Next time, you can't be so cold to me anymore." β
Su Chengle turned around and left in a hurry, wiped the tears on his face indiscriminately, got into the carriage, and said coldly: "Go back to the Hou Mansion, hurry up!"
"Yes!"
"Madame is resting now, Fourth Miss will come back later. The maid sighed and said, "Mama Liu, who has been following Madame Liu, has an accident today, and Madame is very sad now." β
"Something happened to Mama Liu?" Su Jinyan asked in surprise, "What's the matter?"
"That's right, I was fine last night, but this morning I suddenly fell unconscious, really suddenly. The maid said, "Anyway, Madame is very sad now, and the fourth lady will come back when Madame calms down a little." β
"That's all there is to it. Su Jinyan said, I don't know why, I suddenly began to feel a little apprehensive in my heart.
"Fourth sister, why are you here, is there anything to do with your mother?" asked Su Chengle.
"Third sister, when did you come?" Su Jinyan swallowed and said, her eyes rolled for a moment, "I heard that the prince personally investigated that matter, I was a little worried in my heart, and I wanted to ask about the current situation." β
"What are you worried about?" Su Chengle said lightly, stroking the jade bracelet in his hand with his right hand, "Isn't everything still here?"
"Then if there is any accident, be sure to tell me in time. Su Jinyan bit her lip and said worriedly.
Su Chengle watched Su Jinyan leave coldly, and ran into the house quickly, Su Liu was sitting on the chaise longue drinking tea, she trotted a few steps forward and asked, "Mother, I just heard that Mama Liu had an accident, what's the matter?"
"There are some things that the fewer people know, the fewer they have. Su Liu said lightly, "Where have you been?"
"I ...... I'm going to find my uncle. Su Chengle said.
"What are you looking for him to do?"
"Ask him to help with the rest. Su Chengle sighed and said, "Now the development of the situation has exceeded expectations, and with our current ability, there is no way to end it, so we can only ask my uncle to help deal with the aftermath." β
Su Liu put down the teacup, looked at Su Chengle fiercely, and said, "Do you know what you are doing? You went to your uncle so rashly, which means that we are now in your uncle's hands, do you know what you are going to face?"
"I know that my uncle wants me to marry my cousin. Su Chengle bit his lip and said, "If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have done this, since everything is because of me, no matter what the consequences, I should bear it myself! Anyway, I can't marry the person I like, so what does it matter who I marry, I can't let you be hurt because of me." β
"If that's the case, what's the point of all this I'm doing?" said Su Liu with a wry smile.
"Who knows......"
"Back then, I knew that your father had someone I liked, but I still married him without hesitation, maybe from that time on, the tragedy of my life has been doomed, and it doesn't matter in my life, but for the sake of you three brothers and sisters, I must persevere. Su Liu cheered up and said, "I know what your father's secret is, he doesn't dare to do anything to me!"
"Father's secret ......" Su Chengle paused, "What is it?"
"Remember what I just said? The more you know, the better you know. Su Liu said, "You just need to know that this matter has nothing to do with you. Also, I won't let you marry your cousin, we have the handle in your uncle's hands, but is your uncle clean after so many years?"
After a pause, she took a deep breath and continued: "But since he is willing to make a move now, then Wang Si'er will leave it to him to deal with, and there is another person who knows the inside story, and he needs to deal with it......"
"Who?"
Huainan Palace.
"Master, Wang Si'er was indeed hunted down, but now that he has been rescued by us, what should I do?" asked his subordinate.
Gu Tingjun said lightly: "Since you are still alive, you will hand it over to the Criminal Department." β
"Yes. β
"Let Su Zixuan return to the capital, there is no need to stay in Qingzhou. β
"Yes. β
"What's going on in Ziwei Palace now?"
"It was calm, nothing was done. The subordinate said, "However, Zhang Haiyi seems to be staring at the Liu family." β
"Gong You's magic stick is quite smart, I don't want to get involved at this time, when are you going to make a move? β
"Yes. β
"There's nothing else to do, you go down first. β
"Yes. β
Gu Tingjun lowered his eyes and looked at the news from Qingzhou, frowned slightly, and sighed lightly: "Tang An, you are really disobedient, you have been missing for a day and a night, where have you been? What do you want to do? The capital is starting to be lively, you should come back!"
Qingzhou, inside the inn.
"Still haven't found any news about Fifth Miss?" asked Su Zixuan.
"No, there are only fragments of the carriage under the cliff, no bloodstains, no corpses, which is similar to what Wu Tong said. "The people under him reported.
"It's weird, is Tachibana okay? If she's okay, why doesn't she show up? Or is it that for some reason she can't appear for the time being? For example, she was rescued with a serious injury, but since no blood was found at the scene, it is difficult to say that she was injured, there are no footprints, and it cannot mean that she was rescued, so where is the problem?"
"The subordinates also discovered a strange thing...... "The subordinate hesitated for a moment and said, "I still think it is better to tell the son about this matter, we will expand the scope of the search, and after walking for most of the time in the east, we found a village, but this village was burned to ashes, judging from the scene, it should have happened not long ago, I don't know if it is related to the disappearance of Miss Five." β
"Oh?" Su Zixuan touched his chin with one hand and thought for a moment, "This is very strange, I need to go and see it myself." β
At this time, someone knocked on the door and said: "Childe, the news from the capital, the third prince asked you to go back to the capital now, and stay in Qingzhou again, there is no value." β
"Why did you let me go back?" Su Zixuan frowned suspiciously, "Is there something in the capital that must be handled by me......?" Tachibana finally got a clue, how could I leave so easily?"
At this time, his subordinates knocked on the door outside and said, "Childe, someone is asking to see you." β
"Ask him to come in. β
After a while, seeing a man enter, this person was Gu Tingjun's confidant, Su Zixuan was slightly startled, got up and said, "Why are you here?"
"Actually, I've been here for days, and there's one thing I have to tell you. The man approached Su Zixuan's ear and said, "Sister Ling is safe and sound, the master asked me to wait here and watch her, you still listen to the master, go back to the capital first, right?"
"Is Tang An really fine?" Su Zixuan was overjoyed and surprised, "Where is she?
"There's no need for you to see each other for the time being, as long as you know she's safe. β
Su Zixuan thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll go back now." β
He quickly ordered someone to pack up his things and leave Qingzhou, return to the capital, and when he walked down the stairs of the inn, an ignorant boy walked upstairs with a meal, and the young man turned around and exclaimed: "Look at my age, not much older than me, the momentum is so strong!"
The young man then went upstairs with the food, entered the room, and said, "We have been living in this inn for a long time, when will you take me to the capital?"
"Just for a day or two. The girl who was meditating on the bed opened her bright eyes and said.
"Great, I can finally go to the capital. The young man smiled, "By the way, I just met a young man who is about the same age as me, but he is really good-looking, and he is very majestic!"
The girl's eyes narrowed slightly, and in the capital, I don't know if the show has begun to sound gongs and drums?
