Chapter 20: The Rabbit Dies, the Fox Sorrows

Probably because of Nangong Yin's return, Xie Shu's life in the palace was much better.

She was just serving Chu Tongsheng's food and clothing in the study.

She is no longer needed in the laundry room, Xie Shu's hands are much better, and there are still chilblains, but they are not so rotten.

In Chu Tongshang's courtyard, there are relatively few people, but life is not too sad.

The premise is that Chu Tongshang did not come back.

Xie Shu was happy to be idle, taking advantage of the days to cultivate her body, and she couldn't die before her sister-in-law and nephew left the Chu Palace.

Xie Shu went to serve in the study, and he could see Gu Suisui coming over every day.

Gu Suisui has always pretended to be very well-behaved and docile, at least he never talked back to Chu Tongshang.

On this day, he walked out of the study with rare red eyes.

Xie Shu took a few pearl plums that she picked off, and was hit by Gu Suisui.

"Sister Xie, are you satisfied now? You have the eighth prince, why do you want to rob Ah Shang with me? ”

Gu Suisui passed by her and paused.

Xie Shu was confused.

Gu Suisui lifted the hem of his skirt again and left Tongxin Courtyard angrily.

Gu Suisui quarreled with Chu Tongshang, what does it have to do with her?!

Xie Shu realized that he couldn't go to the study now, and if he went, it would be another Shura field.

She turned the corner and was about to change direction.

"Sister Xie, the prince asked you to come in and study ink."

It's the sound of holding the harp.

Xie Shu lowered her head and stroked the petals of the pearl plum, and her breath sank a little.

Now I can't hide it.

Xie Shu cheered up and walked into the study with an indifferent face.

The situation is indeed not good, there is a pile of fragments on the ground, it is the clay vase that Chu Tongshang likes most on the bookshelf in the corner.

Insert a few light green pearl plums, which is the most beautiful.

It's a pity.

How could Gu Suisui lose his temper with Chu Tongshang?

"Who told you to pick the flowers?" A man's cold voice sounded behind the bookcase.

Xie Shu was taken aback, but still replied truthfully: "It looks good in the study." ”

She has been extraordinarily deferential and cautious in front of Chu Tongshang recently.

Baoqin told her that her sister-in-law and nephew were doing well in the cold courtyard, and that charcoal had been provided recently.

She was afraid that if she didn't do well, Chu Tongshang would take the opportunity to attack.

Chu Tongshang frowned slightly, his eyes swept over her, "Come and copy the book." ”

"Flowers, throw them away!" In his pupils, a bit of anger suddenly appeared.

Xie Shu didn't ask why, she just threw the flowers away and came in.

But she still couldn't help but wonder.

Pearl plum is an extremely rare variety, and the entire capital is only planted in the palace and palace of Chu, which was originally sent by other countries.

This represents the honor and oath of Emperor Yuan and King Chu to share the world.

But now, the Chu Wangfu is no longer the right-hand man who accompanied Emperor Yuan to fight the world.

The birds are all gone, and the good bow is hidden.

The cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys cook.

Xie Shu sat on the other side, copying the book given by Chu Tongshang.

It's a sutra again.

If it weren't for Xie Shu making sure that she hadn't provoked him recently, she would have wondered if he was manipulating her?

Xie Shu didn't ask much, and copied the book with bated breath.

After Baoqin packed up the pieces, he withdrew, and only the guards complained in the quiet study.

"Lord, what do you mean by the emperor? You just asked for a thorough investigation of the Xie family's henchmen in the court, and the emperor actually rewarded you with a few Buddhist scriptures and came back, so many people died in the Chu family's army, can't the prince find out the mastermind behind the scenes? ”

Chu Tongshang sat quietly and leaned back, his posture straight and loose against the crow-blue regular clothes.

That straight face, carved in the winter skylight, is absolutely compelling.

He held a tea cup in his hand, and his eyes were indifferent: "The emperor is saying that this king is too angry." ”

To give the Buddhist scriptures is to beat him and ask him to stop in moderation.

His father is dead, and the Chu family army is almost wiped out, if it weren't for the evidence of the Xie family's crimes, even if he returned to the capital, he would not be able to turn over.

How could he not find out everyone?

What about being too angry!

The young judge was also indignant: "Are we going to forget it like this? ”

Chu Tongshang sneered and did not respond.

But the gaze in that pupil was like a cold moon in the water, and the coldness was piercing.

How is it possible to forget it?

Is one Xie family enough?

Xie Shu tried her best to ignore the conversation between the master and servant, and she blocked everything around her.

She didn't want to hear that, and the more she knew, the faster she would die.

She is now a sinner of the Xie family.

The young tailor quickly left.

There was silence in the study again.

Xie Shu has been copying books with her eyes down, and she is not shocked.

When getting along with Chu Tongshang, time always flies very slowly and is suffocating.

The tips of her fingers trembled a little, and a well-copied Buddhist scripture was stained with a few ink spots.

There was a charcoal fire in the study, and it was warm, and Xie Shu's chilblains began to itch again.

"You don't have anything to say?" Chu Tongshang refused to let her go, and deliberately asked her.

Xie Shu's heart tightened, she raised her eyes to look at him, and her lips tightened a little: "Say...... What? ”

Say the Xie family? Or are they? And what is there to say?
