Boyang Hou Mansion.

"Mother, what are you looking for? What's missing? Shen Hanyu sat on the round stool and looked at Liu Shi in puzzlement.

Boyang Hou sat on the other side across the kang table, his thick eyebrows furrowed, "If it's really valuable, just report to the official and let the Jindu Mansion arrest people, it's better than looking for a needle in a haystack ourselves, if it's not valuable, forget it, the top priority is to do a good job of the marriage between Yu'er and the Lord of Land." ”

Liu Shi clutched his handkerchief tightly, his eyes wandered, and he shook his head after a while: "It's not a valuable thing, Master Hou doesn't have to worry about it, go and get busy with you." ”

Hearing that her tone was wrong, Boyang Hou held her hand, "I didn't mean to reprimand you, just for a maid to make a big move, it's really a joke to spread out, what if King Lu is dissatisfied and doesn't agree to this marriage?" ”

Liu Shiqiang squeezed out a smile, "Where did Master Hou say?" Of course, the concubine understands that you are good for Yu'er, but the concubine is just a little tired and wants to sleep for a while. ”

Boyang Hou looked at her twice, and saw that her face was really ugly, and hurriedly said, "Where is it uncomfortable?" Do you want to call Dr. Bai to take a look? ”

"Don't bother him, the concubine's body knows best, it's just that he didn't sleep well and was a little dizzy, just sleep well."

"Then you have a good rest, there is still something to do in my official office, go and deal with it first, and then I will see you when I come back."

Boyang Hou reluctantly got up, Liu smiled at him, and said a few soft words to finally send the person away.

Before leaving, Boyang Hou also asked Shen Hanyu to take good care of the Liu family.

Shen Hanyu agreed repeatedly, then closed the door, and his face sank.

He walked back to the inner room with heavy steps, sat down in the position of Fang Cai Boyang Hou, stared at Liu Shi and asked in a low voice: "Mother, you tell me the truth, Lingxi, what did you steal?" ”

"Why do you ask?"

Liu's weak expression was too obvious, or rather, in front of Shen Hanyu, she didn't intend to hide it.

Shen Hanyu's heart sank, "You can't fool me." ”

Liu smiled bitterly, "I didn't intend to lie to you. ”

She held Shen Hanyu's hand with both hands, like holding a life-saving straw, "Yu'er, you help your mother, you must catch the spirit rhino!" Don't let her leave Jindu alive! ”

Shen Hanyu guessed that things were not so simple, but he didn't expect that human life would be involved, and his expression became more and more solemn.

"What the hell is going on? You don't say how can I help you? It's not easy to buy a murderer, especially in the current chaotic situation, if you're not careful, you may be regarded as an accomplice of the assassins in southern Xinjiang, what reason do you have to kill her? ”

Liu's strength in her hand suddenly increased, with tears in her eyes, she stared at Shen Hanyu deadly, and said in a breathy voice: "Because she doesn't die, you and I won't have to die!" ”

Shen Hanyu's heart trembled, "What did you say?" ”

After hiding the secret for twenty years, he finally couldn't hide it, Liu Shi took a breath tremblingly, and regretfully beautified the events of the year and told Shen Hanyu.

Shen Hanyu listened to it like he was struck by lightning, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, and he didn't listen to what Liu said later.

“…… Now that she has stolen the nurse's tablet, who knows if she will go to the people of the Zhenguo Mansion? In case the people of the Zhenguo Mansion find out the clues, you and I will be finished, Yu'er, you must catch her as soon as possible, mother, please! ”

Liu couldn't help crying, "And your unborn brother or sister, she is still so young and unborn, can you bear to watch your mother and her die twice?" ”

These words pierced Shen Hanyu's sensitive heart, and he slammed Liu's hand away and stood up, wanting to cry and laugh, "Then have you thought about me?" Yes? Mother, why didn't you think of today when you did those things? ”

Liu was stunned by the question, and sat on the couch and looked at him blankly.

"I ...... I also had to do it, what could I do at that time? The Liu family is in decline, if I don't catch up with your father, I will have to marry the local rich gentry in Boyang, you also know what kind of vulgar and despicable people are in that small place, I am unwilling! ”

Liu covered his face in a broken break.

Shen Hanyu also wanted to cover his face, he had no shame.

I thought that he was the son-in-law of the Marquis of Boyang, even if it was from the stepfamily, but he didn't leave a son and a half daughter in front of him, he was the only seedling, and he could inherit the title.

But now his mother told him that he was just a wild seed whose biological father was unknown.

"Hehehehe-" Shen Hanyu suddenly laughed, first quietly, and then the laughter became louder and louder, more and more poignant, and Liu's heart trembled when he heard it, but he didn't dare to cry.

She looked at Shen Hanyu in fear and didn't dare to say anything.

For a long time, Shen Hanyu smiled enough, lowered his head, the handsome face was hidden in the dark, and Liu called out tremblingly: "Yu'er......"

The green tendons on the back of Shen Hanyu's hand burst out, trying his best to suppress something.

After being silent for a long time, he turned around and glanced at Liu Shi deeply, "I will go to the second prince for help, but I can't find it, and there is no way, this matter, you better rot in your stomach, don't let the second person know, otherwise, no one can protect you!" ”

After saying that, he turned and left, without any regret.

Liu Shi looked at his indifferent back, and fell on the kang table and cried bitterly.

……

After Chu Wuxian returned to the house, he rested for a few days, and then officially returned to the court, and the emperor called him to the imperial study to ask a few words, made sure that his body was indeed fine, and gave him a new task.

"The envoy of the Zhou State will be in the capital in the next few days, you and the people from the Ministry of Rites will go to pick it up together, be sure to bring the people well, and nothing can go wrong."

The emperor looked at Chu Wuxian tightly, and the worry in his eyes was unobstructed.

Chu Wuxian suddenly understood that the maggot-like assassin of the southern frontier had left an indelible shadow in His Majesty's heart.

"Wechen obeys."

Looking at his calm and resolute face, the emperor was a little relieved, and said a few words of advice to let people go.

When Chu Wuxian went out, he happened to see Wei Jiuyuan coming, his eyes met, Wei Jiuyuan hooked his lower lip slightly, "Lord Chu." ”

Chu Wuxian arched his hand and said, "The minister has seen the Second Highness. ”

"Lord Chu's face is ruddy, the spring breeze is proud, it seems that the injury is almost healed, congratulations."

Wei Jiuyuan's gaze swept over him and landed on the saber at his waist.

Chu Wuxian straightened up and said calmly: "Your Highness Xie is worried." ”

"The minister still has something to do, go first and say goodbye."

He didn't plan to talk to Wei Jiuyuan more, they weren't destined to become friends, so there was no need to waste time.

Wei Jiuyuan didn't leave him either, and went to the imperial study with a slight bow.

After taking a few steps, Chu Wuxian suddenly thought of something, frowned, and turned around to take a look.

Xin Zhi, who came to greet him, was puzzled, "What is the master looking at?" ”

Chu Wu hated back to his senses, "The second prince was punished and grounded, and he came out in less than a month." ”

Xin Zhi was stunned for a moment, "Yes, why is that?" ”
