Xiao Yuehuai thought that he was here to pick him up and go home, so he hurriedly stepped on the car stool and stood on the side of the road waiting for him.

Su Ying grabbed the reins, parked the horse not far from the princess's chariot, and trotted towards her. Yuan Yuchuan lifted the curtain to look at him, glanced at Xiao Yuehuai again, and saw that there seemed to be endless words in the eyes of the two of them, so he sat on the other side with interest and avoided it from a distance.

"Princess." Su Ying clasped his hands, respectful and polite.

Xiao Yuehuai listened to his slightly detached tone, not very happy: "The general and I haven't seen each other all night, why do you seem to be strangers?" I don't know, do you think that the marriage books of the two of us are not counted? ”

Su Ying was a little flustered, but the cold plum silver face covered all his expressions, and he looked even more indifferent: "Please forgive the princess, the minister is in a hurry to go to the palace to resume his life, and he can't delay here, so he will escort the princess back to the house by the Yuan family, and the minister will retire." ”

He paid no attention to the girl's sarcasm, and after a few words, he turned and rode away, his back getting smaller and smaller in his field of vision, until he disappeared.

Xiao Yuehuai was stunned in place, she really didn't expect this scene. She is a dignified princess of Zhou, but she was left behind like this?

This Su Ying, yesterday she was not allowed to get too close to Lu Pingsheng, but today she seemed to have deliberately thrown her to Yuanyu Chuan, and she didn't ask half a word about the two of them all the way...

Why is there such a big contrast in attitude? And also... What is she? Why can he stuff it into whoever he wants? In that case, why did you go to the trouble of marrying her in the first place?

Xiao Yue was so angry that she was speechless, the corners of her mouth were pulled down, her brows were furrowed, and her face was extremely bad.

Ah Lu cautiously walked up to her, and when he saw her like this, he was so frightened that he closed his mouth and didn't dare to speak.

Su Ying's approach also puzzled Yuanyuchuan, and seeing that Xiao Yuehuai hadn't gotten into the car for a long time, he came down to look for her: "Ah Huai? It's getting late, I'll send you back to the General's Mansion, right? ”

The girl next to the car had a gloomy face, and when she heard Lang Jun's call, she finally eased her senses, and when she heard the words "General's Mansion", she became irritable again: "Who wants to go back?" Don't I have a place to live? Ah Lu, go back to the princess's mansion! ”

She lifted the hem of her skirt violently, and without waiting for Yuan Yuchuan to speak, she got into the chariot by herself.

Ah Lu looked at the Yuan family Lang helplessly, and said with a sneer: "Lang Jun... What should we do now? ”

Yuan Yuchuan shook his head helplessly: "What else can I do?" Don't you know the temper of your master? She is angry at the moment, just as she wishes, go back to the princess's mansion, right? ”

The chariot slowly drove towards the street opposite the West Market.

In the evening, the sunset spreads on the moat, the water waves under the sunset are bright red and translucent, the waves beat over, and faintly glow with blue light, like the colorful spar inlaid in the edge of Jinling City.

Diligent Palace.

Lu Pingsheng and Su Ying waited together in the inner hall. After waiting for a long time, Emperor Zhou walked out from behind the felt curtain leisurely.

The two knelt down in unison and saluted.

Emperor Zhou sat down on the dragon chair, leaned on the jade pillow, his eyes fell lightly on Lu Pingsheng's body, raised his eyebrows, and said with some scrutiny: "San Lang, there were two major events one after another before and after the Qu Yu banquet, which ruined the hard work of your aunt and your father, and you have to explain them for me." Now that the affairs of the Lu family have been handed over to Qi Yue to investigate, you don't have to worry about it. ”

Lu Pingsheng heard the dissatisfaction in Emperor Zhou's words, and knew that the Qu Yu banquet case was probably not related to the Lu family, so he immediately leaned over and bowed: "The minister obeys the order." The banquet was raided by the rebels of Yeping, which frightened His Majesty, the queen and the aunt, which was really the sinful of the ministers. My aunt ordered the minister to be responsible for the protection of Changjing Mountain, but the minister was so derelict in his duty that he hoped that His Majesty would be guilty. ”

He took the blame on himself and left Concubine Xiang and Lu Qiaocage completely behind.

Emperor Zhou's eyes were flat, as quiet as a pool of water: "I'm only afraid, San Lang, you can't afford this responsibility." ”

Lu Pingsheng's body shook, closed his eyes and said as if resigned to his fate: "The minister is willing to remove him from the post of squire of the military department and be punished with a hundred rods." I only ask Your Majesty not to use the liver fire and hurt the body. ”

He took the initiative to resign and be punished, which surprised Emperor Zhou.

Immediately after, I heard him say, "It's just... There is one thing that the minister has not figured out. ”

Emperor Zhou frowned: "What? ”

Lu Pingsheng got up slightly, glanced at Su Ying on the side, and his eyes flashed with a cold light: "The minister doesn't understand, the remnants of the Yeping Kingdom should have been wiped out when the general destroyed the Baizhenmen stronghold, how could there be so many fish that slipped through the net and lurked in the Qu Zhen Banquet?" ”

The Yeping Kingdom was destroyed as early as the beginning of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the remaining people gathered together to establish the White True Gate. Under the banner of reviving Yeping, these people burn, kill, loot and do all kinds of evil, evil and cruel. Originally, he had been making trouble in Jiangnan, but in the past two years, he has been in a strange way, and he has come to the land of Gyeonggi.

The Great Zhou government cleared it several times, until they infiltrated the hunting ground in the western suburbs with the intention of assassinating Xiao Yuehuai, and Su Ying found a hiding place and annihilated them in one fell swoop.

Who knew that at the Qu Yu banquet, there was a resurgence of the ashes.

Lu Pingsheng caused trouble to the east, and in addition to saving his life, he also wanted to pull the Su family into this troubled water.

Su Ying seemed to have been prepared, and kowtowed unhurriedly towards the Nine Dragons Jade Steps: "Your Majesty, the minister dares to conclude that the remnants of Yeping in the Bai Zhenmen case have been cut off. The assassins at the Qu Yu banquet are probably an anti-thief force wandering in southern Xinjiang. ”

Lu Pingsheng's pupils shrank suddenly, and his whole person tensed: How could Su Ying know that those killers were from southern Xinjiang?

After a burst of shock, he quickly calmed down and looked for a countermeasure: "The general's excuse is a bit ridiculous, right?" If they were really thieves who were causing trouble in southern Xinjiang, how could they suddenly sneak into Jinling and appear at the Quqi banquet? ”

Su Ying smiled: "Why should Lord Lu be in a hurry? I say this, of course, there is evidence. ”

After that, he turned his head to Emperor Zhou: "Your Majesty! When Chen and Yue Shaoqing searched the corpses of these Yeping soldiers last night, they found that there were traces of Gu worm bites on their necks, and the subworms had entered the blood, which was enough to control their minds. And the mother worm is in the hands of the leader of the man. ”

"This kind of Gu worm is a secret transmission of the Miao people in southern Xinjiang, and it is not easy to obtain. After the minister found out about it, he asked someone to check the records of the counties leading to Jinling in the south overnight. This morning, we have been able to obtain detailed evidence. A month ago, someone in the capital made a guarantee and put a group of tea merchants into Qingzhou, and the leader was a burly man. ”

"This caravan consisted of three or four hundred people, from the sellers to the men, from the coachmen to the slaves."

"The minister gave the portrait of the leader of the traitors to the people who went to check it, and determined that the leader of the tea merchants mentioned in each county was the leader of the traitors."

"Your Majesty, the minister is very curious. Which person in the capital dared to vouch for the rebel party and commit such a murderous crime? ”
