CHAPTER XXI

Everyone was shocked that the general with great achievements actually made trouble in the Qinglou and killed the prince.

"How can this be......" she whispered alone.

Zhou Ci rushed here, Chu Yu and Xiao Ning walked over, Xiao Ning said: "Your Highness, we kill ...... people."

"What?"

"I just gave him a palm, and I didn't use much internal force, how could he die?

"When I find out about this, I will definitely give you an explanation."

"General, what should we do now?" Xiao Ning was a little anxious.

"You killed King Cheng's son by mistake, King Cheng will definitely not let you go." Gu Jingyan said one more sentence on the side.

"Let's go to prison for a few days."

"Ah Yu, I will definitely find a way to save you."

The man in black turned his back to them, and the red-clothed Oiran just now said: "The master has succeeded, according to King Cheng's temper, Chu Yu killed his son, King Cheng will definitely not let her go, she is now unable to escape death."

"This time she did a good job, Zhou Ci's weakness is her, as long as she is there, she will definitely be able to overturn Zhou Ci.

"Then my parents ......"

"Don't worry, as long as you do everything I give you, I will let them go and give you back your freedom."

"No." She bit her lip.

In the prison, Xiao Ning said with a bitter face: "Not only did the person not be rescued, but he sent himself to prison."

"I'm sorry, Xiao Ning, I've bothered you."

"General, didn't Xiao Ning say that Xiao Ning will follow wherever you go, and Xiao Ning also wants to thank the general for not treating Xiao Ning as a burden."

"Xiao Ning, thank you.

"General, Xiao Ning will protect the general." She said.

Qinglou, "Only by finding out the reason first can we rescue Ah Yu."

"Your Highness, what should we do now?"

"Check, find, don't let go of any place."

Li Shuxing learned that Chu Yu had killed King Cheng's son by mistake and was imprisoned in the prison, and came to visit her in prison.

"Ah Yu."

Chu Yu got up and walked over and asked, "Li Shuxing, why are you here?"

I heard that you killed Yuan Chong by mistake, and I was worried about you, so I came to see you.

"It must have cost me a lot of money, didn't I?" She asked with a smirk.

He didn't answer her, just looked at her, and Chu Yu continued: "Li Shuxing, you have married a wife now, and it is better for us to see each other less in the future, so as not to think too much about Zhou Yinyu."

"Ah Yu, are you still blaming me?"

"What do you blame? It's not your fault. ”

"Why isn't it weird?"

"Because you shouldn't be blamed for this, you married Zhou Yinyu in order to use the power of the Zhou family to seize the position of the head of the family, what's wrong with this?" She looked directly at him and said, "But Li Shuxing, I want to tell you, no matter how many unpleasant things happened between us before, we are still friends."

"Are you just friends...," he whispered.

"What else could it be?"

King Cheng has taken the prince back to the palace of the king of the city, which caused Zhou Ci to be unable to continue to investigate the case, King Cheng was very sad, and guarded his son's body all day long.

That day, King Cheng was furious and asked the emperor to order Chu Yu to be executed to pay for his son's life.

The landlord is young and beautiful, a rare beauty, holding a folding fan in her hand, wearing a pink and white dress, standing aside, staring at Zhou Ci who is investigating the case, and said: "Ah Ci, it seems that you value Chu Yu's girl very much in your heart, but she almost demolished my Qinglou today."

"Sister Zhiyue is so dignified and generous, she shouldn't be counted on these, right?"

"Hmph, I think you're just forgetful." Zhiyue folded the fan, leaned on the long pillar, and pretended to sigh: "If you have a sweetheart, you will forget my sister."

"How so?"

"Sister Zhiyue, what is wrong with the girl who has come to the Moon Candle Tower recently?" Zhou Ci asked.

"There's nothing out of the ordinary," she suddenly remembered something, "By the way, the Oiran girl told me that she was putting on her makeup on the night she picked up the guests, and suddenly she didn't know anything because of a pain in her shoulder, and when she woke up again, she heard that there had been a murder in the Moon Candle Tower."

"Are you saying that Oiran wasn't there on the night of the pick-up, and that someone else was there that night?"

"Yes, I think the death of the prince must have something to do with the woman who pretended to be an Oiran."

"Go to the king's mansion." He immediately turned and walked out of the Candle Tower.

Zhou Ci got into the carriage, and Gu Jingyan also followed closely to get into the carriage and asked, "Ah Ci, are you suspicious......

"Yes, a light palm is not enough to hurt people's lives, so someone must have designed to frame Ah Yu behind his back, and Ah Yu's character will not easily hurt people's lives."

Early in the morning, Yuan Ying was sitting in front of the mirror to make up, and the maid suddenly hurriedly pushed the door and walked in, "The princess is not good, General Chu has an accident." ”

Yuan Ying learned that Chu Yu had killed the prince and was imprisoned in the prison, "What did you say?" Ah Yu killed Yuan Chong?!"

"Isn't Yuan Chong's martial arts always very good? How did you just die?"

"The general just killed the prince by mistake."

"Why did Ah Yu go to a place like the Red Dust of the Moon Candle Tower?"

"This slave doesn't know, and the slave only listens to other maids."

If Ah Yu really kills the son, this will kill the head! No, I've got to find a way to save her!" Won Young walked out the door.

"Princess, don't worry, there will definitely be a way."

"Ah Yu killed someone, the imperial brother will not ignore it, I think he will definitely find a way to save Ah Yu."

Zhou Ci came to the door of King Cheng's mansion, and the servants went in to report, but King Cheng's people stopped them outside.

"This king does not allow anyone to disturb the rest of the prince." King Cheng said coldly.

Zhou Ci said: "King Cheng, I'm just coming to see the prince."

"Ah Ci, Uncle Huang knows that you have taken this case. I also know that you are for that Ah Yu, although you and I are uncles and nephews, this king will never let her go because of this. ”

"I know that King Cheng is not a person who bends the law for personal gain, and I am not only for her, but also for the son, I think King Cheng definitely doesn't want the son to die like this."

"The facts are already in front of us, everyone sees that it was Chu Yu who killed the prince, what else does this king need to understand?"

"I suspect there is something strange about the death of the son." "What do you mean by that?"

"I think the death of the prince is a bit sudden, if a light palm can kill the son, then anyone can easily do it so easily, please believe me."

"Okay, this king believes in you, but this king will not let the prince's body become a tool for investigating the case."

"But this king has something to say in front of him, if the prince is really killed by her, then this king will not let her go, and this king will let her pay for Chong'er's life."

Zhou Ci came to the side of the prince, and he touched his vein, and his breath was indeed gone, and Zhou Ci asked the son: "Old Bird, is there anything wrong with the son?"

"What has the prince found in the prince?"

"This king found this in the son of the world

"King Cheng took out a wooden box, opened the box, and a silver needle lay quietly inside the box.

He said excitedly: "Can the prince show this needle to the minister?"

"Yes." King Cheng handed the needle over.

"The minister knows that there is a needle that can cause people to fake their death."

"You mean the son is still alive."

"Yes." After speaking, he gave a pill to Shizi, and soon Shizi opened his eyes and saw many people standing beside him, including his father, the prince, and a Langzhong.

"What's wrong?"

"Chong'er, you're finally awake."

"Father."

"Chong'er, how did you run to the Qinglou?"

"I wanted to investigate the case in Qinglou, but I didn't expect to meet a shrew to make trouble." The thought of this gives him a headache.

"I see." Only then did King Cheng know that he had misunderstood Chu Yu.

"Then the prince can let General Chu go, right?" Zhou Ci said.

King Cheng said: "This is because the king misunderstood her, and the king will enter the palace to ask the emperor to let her go."

"King Xie Cheng."

Yuan Chong showed an unwilling expression on his face, "Just let her go like this, it's really cheap for her." ”

Zhou Ci informed the emperor of this matter and released Chu Yu, who had been in prison for three days.

Get out of the prison Yuan Ying walk. stepped forward and took her hand, "Ah Yu, I made you suffer." ”

"I've been through so much suffering, and this little suffering is nothing."

Li Shuxing stood far away from them and looked at them, but he didn't pass, he thought as long as she was okay, as long as she was fine.

Zhou Ci looked at Chu Yu and said, "Let's go home."

"Hmm."

At this time, it was already early spring, and the peach petals on the side of the road were falling and flying everywhere with the wind.

"It seems that their plan has been ruined by the man named Zhou Ci." The drawing paper in Lin Ran's hand sitting on the bed was a little yellowed, and it looked a lot old, and the painting showed a woman in a pink dress lying on her side on the couch, looking at her with a pair of cold eyes, "Ice Wind Commander, I will let you see your daughter killed by others." ”

Li Mansion, Li Shuxing sat in front of the table, the brush in his hand was disobedient to the call, and he recalled that year with Chu Yu to tidy up the Li family's wife.

At that time, the eldest lady got up early in the morning and sat in front of the bronze mirror and was about to ask the maid to comb her hair, only to hear a shout of "ah", and the maid ran in when she heard the sound and was startled to see this, only to see the eldest lady's face. There were a lot of rashes, which were a little scary.

It turned out that the eldest lady was allergic to peanuts, and Chu Yu secretly mashed the peanuts and mixed them into the rouge, causing the eldest lady to be allergic and her face was full of spots, so the eldest lady did not leave the house for a month and did not dare to go out to meet people.

They also recalled a lot of things they had experienced together.

I remembered that day when she learned that she was going to get married and came to him, and she was very good when she left.

Thinking that the strength of this hand had increased, and the pen in his hand had broken in half, he came back to his senses.

Looking at the large sheets of paper soaked in ink, table. The brush on it was also broken in half, and then Zhou Yinyu walked in, the snack in his hand was very delicate, and he put it on the table and asked, "Shuxing, what are you writing?"

She caught a glimpse of the pen and ink on the table and the broken brush, and said, "Don't let yourself be too tired, pay more attention to rest, remember to eat snacks later, I'll go first."

"Madame, you should rest early, too."

"Hmm." She nodded in response, then turned and walked out.

didn't know that she leaned on the corner and cried after she went out, usually Zhou Yinyu would always hide her emotions and never tell anyone, especially Li Shuxing, for fear that he would be bored with her.

General's Mansion, "The general finally came back from the prison, you have lost weight in the past few days in the prison, you must make up for it." Xiao Ning handed her the chicken soup.

"How's it taste?" Seeing Chu Yu pick up the spoon and take a sip of chicken soup, he asked.

"You'd better keep it for yourself." As soon as she took a sip, she immediately put down the spoon and swallowed it forcefully, she pushed the bowl to Xiao Ningdao.

"Doesn't it taste good? I'll taste it. ”

She took the bowl and took a sip of soup, and Xiao Ning spit it out again as soon as she drank it: "What! It's so unpalatable, this chicken is very expensive, and it's just a waste of a whole chicken, and we can only nibble on steamed buns this month. ”

"What else do you say?"

But I can only add firewood to the fire, not cook. Xiao Ning said with a bitter face.

The two could only stare at the chicken soup in front of them in a daze.

Mu Wangfu, Fu Rong sat in front of the mirror in a daze, and the maidservant Zhiyue said: "The county lord has been so close to that Chu Yu recently, the county lord doesn't want the slave to help you teach her a lesson."

"No, the lord of this county will go to her in person." She stood up.

Feng Lin Inn, Fu Rong and Chu Yu sat opposite each other, Fu Rong elegantly picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea in the cup, since Chu Yu entered the inn, Chu Yu first opened his mouth to break the silence and said: "I don't know what the county lord asked me to do?"

"Of course, it's about me and Zhou Ci." She put down the teacup in her hand and said.

"Zhou Ci."

"My relationship with Zhou Ci has always been very good since childhood, and the emperor and my father are very optimistic about us, and my father is about to propose to the emperor to marry me and Zhou Ci." She deliberately uttered this phrase to irritate her and try to repel her.

"Lord, then I'm going to bless you, but you asked me out just to tell me this, right?" Chu Yu asked.

She had already seen her intentions, but she hadn't punctured her.

"Of course not, I asked you out just to keep you away from Zhou Ci."

"What if I don't say yes?"

Seeing that Chu Yu had no intention of quitting, he finally couldn't help but show his fox tail, stood up suddenly, lost his elegant posture, pointed at Chu Yu and scolded angrily: "Chu Yu, you are really shameless, not only seducing Brother Zhou Ci, but also entangled with Li Shuxing!"

"What do you mean to be shameless? What does it mean to be entangled? You also have to trouble the county lord to point more fingers, so as not to do something in the future that hinders your eyes, and the county lord will be careful when he speaks in the future, if you don't have the name of the county lord, you are nothing. ”

"You!"

Before she could finish speaking, Chu Yu continued: "Although you are the county lord, you can't act so casually," Chu Yu got up and said: "But the county lord, I also kindly remind you, don't be too much, so as not to attract death in the future." With that, she turned and left.

She thought of something again, turned around and said, "If there is trouble, don't ask me out next time on this occasion, so as not to be contaminated." After finishing speaking, she turned around and left, leaving Fu Rong standing there alone, angry She stomped her feet on the spot: "Chu Yu!"

Sister, you're finally back, Yan'er has been waiting for you for a long time, go out with Yan'er, okay, it's so boring in the palace. Lin Yan said with a winkful look in his eyes.

In addition to the cleaning subordinates and Xiao Ning, there is no one else in the house, and it looks deserted.

She is used to being so cold, so Xiao Ning accompanies her many times.

Now there is another Lin Yan who is only six or seven years old, Chu Yu

Lin Yan dragged her all over the street, looking at this for a while, looking at that for a while, her face was full of novelty and excitement, but she didn't notice Fu Rong who had been following behind her.

"Now even Prince Liang has been seduced, it's really shameless."

"County Lord, I think she just wants to climb the high branches, and a sparrow will never be able to fly on the branches and become a phoenix."

"I will definitely let Brother Zhou Ci see her true face, Zhiyue, let's go."

Lin Yan picked up the mask on the stall and put it on her face, which made Chu Yu laugh.

Lin Yan led the horses in the stable and jumped on the horse's back: "Xiao Yu, let's come to the horse race to see whose riding skills are better." ”

Saying that, riding away, Chu Yu also led a horse to chase after him, thinking that this Lin Yan was really not worry-free.

In the forest, Lin Yan rode his horse and galloped forward despite Chu Yu's dissuasion.

Suddenly, a group of black-clothed people appeared around, Chu Yu fought with the black-clothed people, and Lin Yan hid, but he didn't notice that someone behind him was approaching and raising a knife to cut him, he turned his head and shouted: "Help!" ”

Chu Yu threw out a hidden weapon, the man in black was hit by the hidden weapon and fell to the ground, Lin Yan hid behind Chu Yu again, Chu Yu was not very hit, turned around and pulled her to run, the man in black chased after him, and sent out a hidden weapon again and again, he had to let Lin Yan go quickly and drag them by himself, she held on until she killed all the killers, and then leaned against the tree to rest.

In a daze, she saw a figure walking towards her, but she had no strength, felt that her eyelids were a little heavy, and she fainted in front of her.

woke up again, only to find that Zhou Ci, who was sitting next to her, was looking at her, until Chu Yu reacted, she sat up and looked at him.

"Awake?" He asked.

"Why are you here?" She looked at him and asked.

"Prince Daliang told me." He said.

He ...... Are you okay? Chu Yu asked weakly.

"He's fine, take care of yourself first, your life is going to be gone, and you still have the heart to care about the life and death of others." Zhou Ci's heart was sour.

"He is the crown prince, and it is my duty to protect him."

"It's also the crown prince, and I haven't seen you do anything for me?" He muttered quietly.

"What did you say?"

"Nothing, I mean you're stupid." As he spoke, he got up and hugged her.

"What are you doing?" She struggled: "Let me down!" ”

"You're so badly injured, if you go a little further to the right, you'll hurt your heart, I'll take you to find Yueyue for treatment." Saying that, he held her and trotted all the way.

It was only when the two of them were getting farther and farther away that one of them came out from behind the tree.

Lin Yan said to the person behind him: "I didn't expect that vicious woman in Linyan to send a killer to kill me so soon, even if I suffer from hysteria and mental weakness, he will not show mercy, and he also injured Xiaoyu, which is really vicious." ”

"So what do we do now?"

"What can I do, can't I hide if I can't be provoked?"

Zhou Ci rushed back to the house with the unconscious Chu Yu in his arms, and just as Gu Jingyan came out of the house and asked, "What's wrong with her?" ”

"Ah Yu was assassinated by a killer and was injured in order to protect Prince Liang."

"Come on in!"

gave medicine to Chu Yu's wound, and said happily: "Fortunately, I came back in time, and I didn't let the wound become infected, otherwise even the gods wouldn't be able to save her." ”

"But I think I really have a fate with this girl, and it's him every time, but this girl's body is very hard, if she is replaced by another woman, I'm afraid it won't last long, and I would have gone to Hades to report."

Zhou Ci looked at Chu Yu in a coma, and he was also a little distressed and helpless.

In the lonely palace here, Fu Rong slapped the table when she heard this: "What did you say?" Chu Yu was injured, and Zhou Ci's brother guarded her for one night! ”

"Don't be anxious yet, we will definitely have a way to teach her a lesson."

"Let's find a way to find an opportunity to teach her a lesson, she has Yuanying to protect me and can't move her, although I am the emperor's righteous daughter, but it is only in name, if it is a critical moment, he will definitely choose to protect his own daughter."

Li Shuxing came to the General's Mansion, handed the medicine to Xiao Ning, and asked her to help him give it to Chu Yu.

She asked, "Master Li, aren't you going in?" ”

"No, Ah Yu, as long as she's okay."

Xiao Ning took the medicine bottle, Li Shuxing left, she returned to the house and handed the medicine to Chu Yu: "General, this is what the adults asked me to give you." ”

"What about others?" He asked.

"Gone."

She looked at the medicine bottle in her hand and was silent.

At this time, a head stuck in from the window, and I saw Lin Yan crawling in from the window, and said with a difficult smile: "Sister, how are your injuries?" ”

She looked out the window, "Why are you here?" ”

"I heard from them that you were injured to protect me, so I came to see my sister."

"Then why don't you go through the front door and climb the window?"

"I'm afraid of being discovered, I ran out secretly, after the last assassination, my guards didn't let me leave the palace for fear that I would be injured, but fortunately I was smart and escaped by pretending to be a big eunuch." Lin Yan lowered her voice and said.

She didn't understand that he used the word "escape" when he left the palace, Chu Yu said: "Then you better go back quickly, otherwise they should worry again." ”

"Then sister, you have to take care of yourself, I will come to see my sister next time."

"Next time...... Still climbing the window? ”

With that, he climbed down from the window again, and left.

She thought he was cute and couldn't help but laugh.

"Sister." Then another child's voice rang out.
