Chapter 221: Inside and Outside
Dark Er agreed with Chu Yunxi's guess.
"I'm afraid the truth, as the crown princess said."
"But what does this dumb woman have to do with Aunt Liu? And why do you want to help her? ”
This is what Chu Yunxi can't figure out the most. Aunt Liu has no status in the General's Mansion, why does this dumb woman have to work hard for her?
Dark two immediately solved her doubts.
"According to General Chu's recollection, this dumb woman was rescued by Aunt Liu on the street ten years ago and brought back to the mansion to be the current person."
At this moment, there is something Chu Yunxi doesn't understand, this dumb woman is simply the dark line that Aunt Liu planted in their general's mansion.
Aunt Liu, she really has some skills, and all the layouts started more than ten years ago, which is overwhelming.
"It's just that I don't know if it's Xiao Guogong's people or Dongyi country's people who are responding outside."
Chu Yunxi's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
In order to avoid people's eyes, the yard where Aunt Liu was guarding was remote, and few people passed by. Although Aunt Liu was transferred by her, she still left two guards to avoid being discovered.
Someone who came could avoid the guards guarding the door of the General's Mansion, avoid the keen perception of the dark and dark, put down the guards, and successfully sneaked into the courtyard of Aunt Liu, which was also very good.
If it's someone from Dongyi Kingdom, it's okay, if it's someone from Xiao Guogong, he must want to make a fuss about Aunt Liu's identity.
If you can't do it, you have to give them the Chu family and detain them for betraying the enemy and harboring the enemy.
"The crown princess forgives her sins, the identity of the person who came has not been ascertained, and someone has been sent to track it down, but the person who came has made all preparations, and when he leaves the general's mansion, he has lost his trace."
Dark Er felt a little guilty, although the courtyard of the crown princess was still far away from the courtyard guarding Aunt Liu, but they really didn't notice the other party's infiltration at all, which was a dereliction of duty.
Chu Yunxi was immersed in his thoughts, thinking about how to deal with the next storm.
Jun Hongyan's princess, Chu Xue'er, although she is Aunt Liu's daughter, Xiao Guogong can say that they are completely unaware and were deceived by the General's Mansion.
And Aunt Liu, who has been in the General's Mansion for more than ten years, is not something that can be said clearly without knowing it.
Once the emperor is suspicious, it will be difficult to suppress it anymore, even if the wind and waves will be calm in the future, it will always be a thorn between the emperor and the Chu family, this, she knew it well in her previous life.
Paper can't hold the fire, so instead of trying to cover it up, it's better to ......
Chu Yunxi walked to the front yard.
"Miss, where are you going?"
Hexiang and Xiaolian hurriedly followed.
"Go to Father."
When Chu Yunxi saw General Chu, he was interrogating the dumb woman.
"I can't speak, I can't write, it's okay, General Ben said, you choose. Who are you colluding with tonight? Xiao Guogong, raise his left hand, Dongyi people, raise his right hand. ”
The mute woman did not lift any hand, but shook her head vigorously.
"General Ben doesn't want to see that you have a hand, come and be punished."
"Father."
General Chu turned his head, saw Chu Yunxi, and motioned for the guards to stop first, he didn't want his daughter to see such a scene.
"Xi'er, what are you doing here?"
"Father, my daughter has something to discuss with you."
General Chu saw that her face was serious, and it was not a trivial matter. Turning around and entering the house, Chu Yunxi followed.
"But what does it have to do with tonight?"
As soon as General Chu sat down, he asked.
"Yes, father, my daughter has an idea, and I ask my father to hear it."
Chu Yunxi didn't know if he still had affection for Aunt Liu in his father's heart. It will inevitably destroy the relationship between father and daughter, so be careful to speak.
"There's nothing you can't say with your father, but it's okay to say it."
General Chu saw Chu Yunxi's hesitation, and he didn't know what she was going to say, which would make her so embarrassed.
"Father, daughter has thought about it, there is no impermeable wall in the world, not to mention, Xiao Guogong is clear about Aunt Liu's identity, if Xiao Guogong preemptively attacks our Chu family with this matter, then we will fall into passivity and be led by the nose."
General Chu hadn't thought about this, and it was precisely because he thought of the consequences that he would interrogate the dumb woman overnight, wanting to get some accurate information and make plans as soon as possible.
"Xi'er has a way?"
Chu Yunxi paused before saying what he thought in his heart:
"Father, write a letter of resignation to Aunt Liu."
"Leave the book?"
Although General Chu had this thought, he was also impulsive after learning the truth, and when he calmed down, he dispelled this thought.
He can't let Aunt Liu go, he must detain her by his side, or, let her die violently in the mansion, she is the leader of the enemy spies, if she is let go, there will be endless troubles.
General Chu shook his head, very disapproving.
"No, even if our Chu family has to bear the pressure of the court, we can't let the tiger return to the mountain and let the Liu family become a hidden threat to the Yunxiao Kingdom."
Chu Yunxi said:
"Father, my daughter doesn't want you to let go of Aunt Liu, and she won't hand it over to her."
"That's?"
General Chu didn't react for a while, and he took a leave of absence, and if he didn't give it to the retired, who would he give it to?
"In the hands of the emperor! Before Xiao Guogong made a difficulty. ”
Chu Yunxi was extremely serious, and he saw that it was about to reach the time of the last dynasty. As long as the father is not mentally strong, he may miss the best opportunity.
General Chu understood what Chu Yunxi meant almost instantly.
took the initiative to ask the emperor for guilt, handed over Aunt Liu to the emperor, and gained the emperor's trust.
It's just that in that case, for the sake of the stability of Yunxiao Kingdom, the emperor will not be soft on Aunt Liu, and he will have to torture her, perhaps, Aunt Liu will die miserably in the end.
Aunt Liu's true identity, although he can't fully confirm it yet, according to all the clues he has obtained now, it is very likely that Aunt Liu is the orphan of General Liu of Dongyi Kingdom who was killed by him.
General Chu substituted himself and thought that if he one day, he would die on the battlefield.
His daughter did not hesitate to sneak into neighboring countries for more than ten years, just to avenge herself, and in the end she ended up with a tragic death, he couldn't be ruthless.
What's more, Chu Xue'er was raised by him, if Aunt Liu's identity is made public, where should Chu Xue'er go? Will it be killed as a member of the same party?
"Isn't there any other way?"
He muttered to himself.
Chu Yunxi naturally knew that Aunt Liu's identity aroused his father's sympathy. But my father didn't know what Aunt Liu had done to their Chu family.
If you know, I'm afraid that my father, how much sympathy he has for Aunt Liu now, how much hatred he will have for himself in the future.
"Father, my daughter knows that you are in pain and difficult to choose, but father, if the Chu family is in turmoil, can you think about the future of the three brothers?
And the younger brother or sister in my mother's womb, can they grow up as safe as we do? How can her daughter gain a foothold in the royal family? Father, you are the head of our Chu family! ”
Chu Yunxi didn't want to persecute her father like this, but it was very important to seize the opportunity, so she had to hit the nail on the head and make her father sober.
Chu Yunxi's questioning made General Chu's heart tremble, and the situation he had been deliberately avoiding was ruthlessly revealed by his daughter.
