Tao Yao settled his son, and saw that the dress on his body was a little dirty, so he took a clean one and planned to change it.

However, before she took it off, Lu Jiuyuan came in.

Tao Yao glanced at it, turned around calmly, and continued to wear.

After she was dressed, Lu Jiuyuan walked over and stretched out his hand to pull her, but she avoided her.

Lu Jiuyuan paused, and suddenly pressed her to the chair strongly.

"Lu Jiuyuan!" Tao Yao glared at him angrily.

Lu Jiuyuan looked at her and said helplessly: "I know you feel uncomfortable, but no matter what, you have to take the medicine first." ”

Tao Yao was stunned for a moment, and turned his face away, "Don't worry about it." ”

"Don't talk angry!" Lu Jiuyuan's voice sank slightly, and he reached out and took her to his lap and sat down.

Tao Yao's eyes seemed to erupt with anger, staring at him hatefully.

"I only found out today that you are so cold-blooded and ruthless!"

Lu Jiuyuan glanced at her, and his tone was unfazed, "You only found out today?" ”

Tao Yao choked.

"I thought you already knew." Lu Jiuyuan said lightly.

Tao Yao pursed her lips and was speechless for a while.

He was already known for his murder, and she didn't know it for the first time.

But she thought it was just a rumor from the outside world, and never thought that he was really cold-blooded and ruthless.

But what he did today made her question him.

When she was struggling in her heart, the left side of her face suddenly cooled.

When she came back to her senses, she saw that Lu Jiuyuan had an extra porcelain bottle in her hand, and she was lowering her head at this time, applying ointment to her face with her fingers.

She was stunned for a moment, silent for a moment.

Lu Jiuyuan glanced at her and didn't say anything.

It wasn't until he finished applying the ointment to her that he said slowly: "Today's plan, I really deliberately concealed it from you."

But I did this to save you, as well as the Tao family, and even the Guogong Mansion. ”

Tao Yao was stunned and vaguely guessed something.

Lu Jiuyuan sighed, "Rong Niang reported you to the Imperial History Tower, as well as the relationship between the Tao family and her, the emperor was furious and wanted to investigate you and the Tao family thoroughly."

I have no choice but to try my best to get rid of the Tao family in front of the emperor, as well as the relationship between you and Rong Niang.

The emperor naturally didn't believe it, and even had doubts about me.

I can only promise the emperor that I will kill Rong Niang within three days.

But killing Rong Niang directly is not enough to make the emperor believe that you have no relationship with Rong Niang, so you have today's plan.

And Rong Niang is very cunning, she has been hiding for so long, the court has not been able to arrest her, it is not so easy to lure her to appear, and besides, it is necessary to kill her within three days. ”

"So you went behind my back and made today's plan, using me and Zhen'er as bait to lure Rong Niang out?" Tao Yao said softly.

Lu Jiuyuan hugged her tightly, "Yes, only in this way can you eliminate the emperor's doubts about you and kill Rong Niang." ”

When Tao Yao heard this, he remembered that when Fang had just killed Rong Niang, Duan Feng and a group of generals were also present.

It seems that they are all sent by the emperor to spy on Lu Jiuyuan and her eyes and ears.

They have just seen what happened, and they will definitely go back to the emperor.

"Sorry, although I didn't tell you about this plan, it's all under my control, and I won't let you have anything to do with Zhen'er." Lu Jiuyuan continued.

Although he already knew his intentions, Tao Yao's heart still trembled when he thought of the danger he experienced at that time, and said in a mocking voice: "You are so sure, we will be fine?" If it weren't for Xi'er's desperate efforts to save us today, we would have died. ”

Lu Jiuyuan's face turned pale, "Don't say angry words." ”

"I didn't say anything, I said the truth, you think you can control everything, but how do you know the danger we faced?" Tao Yao choked up, tears rolling in his eyes, "Are you still planning to sacrifice Xi'er?" Because you are sure that she is faithful to me, and that she will stand in my way when there is danger? ”

Lu Jiuyuan was silent.

When Tao Yao saw him like this, he knew that he had guessed correctly.

His plan this time really intends to take Xi'er's life.

"You're really ruthless!" Tao Yao shook his head, his voice angry and hateful.

Lu Jiuyuanjun's face turned pale, and he explained in a low voice: "If you don't do it realistically, Rong Niang won't show up." ”

"So you deliberately transferred Mo Die away, leaving only me, Xi'er, and Zhen'er, three powerless women and children?" Tao Yao said.

"Yes." Lu Jiuyuan did not deny it.

Tao Yao closed his eyes.

She knew that he was not wrong, he was starting from the overall situation, and it was also to protect her and the Tao family.

But as long as she thought of the danger she and her son faced at that time, and Xi'er who almost died, she felt a little chill in her heart.

Did he ever wonder what if things got out of his control? Then she, Zhen'er, and Xi'er will all die.

At least, before the plan, he had to talk to her so that she wouldn't be so passive in the face of danger.

But he didn't even say a word to her.

"Young, this incident frightened you, but after sweeping away the scourge of Rong Niang, you and the child can rest easy in the future." Lu Jiuyuan hugged her tightly, as if as soon as she let go, she would run away.

Tao Yao felt very tired, "Actually, you can tell me beforehand, even if I know the plan, I will definitely not mess with your plan." ”

"But I only have three days, I can't afford to gamble, if there is a mistake, you and the Tao family will be questioned by the emperor." Lu Jiuyuan said in a deep voice.

He can not ignore the Tao family, but he can't ignore her.

The court has not been able to arrest Rong Niang, the emperor is very angry, and then learned that Rong Niang had a daughter with Tao Qian before he was with him, so he was naturally even more angry, and he wanted to break Rong Niang's body into pieces.

If Rong Niang can't catch it one day, the emperor will definitely ask the Tao family and Tao Yao together.

"I'm a little tired and want to get some sleep." Tao Yao said lightly.

Lu Jiuyuan paused and let go of her, "Well, then you have a good rest, and I'll come to see you later." ”

Tao Yao nodded.

As soon as he was gone, she got up and walked to the bedside, and lay down beside her son.

Looking at her son's sleeping face, she sighed in her heart, and her mood was very complicated.

She shouldn't blame Lu Jiuyuan, but at the same time, she blamed him for refusing to tell her the plan, putting their mother and son in danger, and he also planned to sacrifice Xi'er.

Thinking of all this, she didn't want to face Lu Jiuyuan for the time being.

Listening to her son's gentle breathing, she gradually became sleepy, and fell asleep unconsciously.

She slept until late in the evening.

When she woke up, the subordinates had already packed their things, and Lu Jiuyuan came in and hugged her son from her arms, "Let's go." ”

Tao Yao nodded silently.

After the morning's events, she was not in the mood to continue living in the village.

In addition to the fact that she didn't want to be alone with Lu Jiuyuan anymore, there was also the fact that Rong Niang died in this village......

Although she didn't feel sad and sad about Rong Niang's death, she still felt sorry for her in the end.

After all, Rong Niang died in front of her.

I wish you all a happy Tanabata ~
