In the house, Song Qingwan was still persuading Chen Chao to take a concubine, but Chen Chao said that he would not agree to anything.

Song Qingwan was a little angry.

At this moment, there was a sound of brisk trotting outside the door, and Yue'e's voice immediately came: "Hey, Commander Hou, you can't go in, Xiangye and Mrs. are inside, inside..."

Yue'e couldn't say anything, and stretched out her arm to block the door, just not letting Hou Ji enter the door.

Hearing the voice, Song Qingwan cleared her throat and said:

"Yue, let him in."

With a creak, the door opened. Hou Ji walked in in a hurry, with a very serious expression on his face, maybe there was something urgent.

"I've seen Xiangye, I've seen Madame." Hou Ji saluted.

"Hmm...."

Chen Chao had already picked up a fruit in his hand, wiped it, took a bite, and did not respond.

However, Song Qingwan nodded in response, she couldn't die just now when she was pressed on the table by Chen Chao, and now her legs are still sore, and she is floating when she walks, but now she has to put on a dignified appearance in the face of Hou Ji, who is a housewife, and after responding, Song Qingwan took a deep breath, pretended to be calm, endured the trembling legs under her skirt, and left the house, wanting to die.

"Xiangye."

Hou Ji arched his hand, frowned, very serious.

Chen Chao raised his eyes and glanced at him, knowing that Hou Ji would only be like this when the situation was very urgent, so he waved his hand at him.

Hou Ji turned around, first said a few words, sent away the maids who were waiting outside the door, then closed the door, and said closely:

"Something is wrong."

"Say."

Chen Chao realized that the matter was serious.

Subconsciously stopped chewing in his mouth, put down the fruit in his hand, sat up a little straighter, and listened carefully to Hou Ji's report.

Hou Ji leaned closer and whispered:

"The power behind the Yan Wangfu has not been completely uprooted, many people have run away, and their whereabouts are still unknown, and Long Wuwei is pursuing them with all his might."

Chen Chao frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "What the hell is going on?" Elaborate. ”

Hou Ji said with a serious face: "Since we returned to Beijing, we have started to collect the net of the Yan Wangfu, according to the information provided by Xu Hongdou in advance, Long Wuwei has grasped a lot of movements in the Yanwang Mansion, and he has indeed gained something in the early stage, catching a few big fish." ”

"However, in the past few days, we have been in the air continuously, and when Long Wuwei arrived at the location provided by Xu Hongdou, the building was already empty, and no one saw it...."

Hearing this, Chen Chao pinched his chin with his fingers and kneaded it gently.

His eyes narrowed slowly, thinking about the seriousness of the matter.

On the day he returned to the capital from Yunzhou, Long Wuwei, who was controlled by Hou Ji, joined forces with Xu Hongdou and began to encroach on the secret power cultivated by the Yan Wangfu step by step.

Only if all of them are eliminated, and there is no one left, even if Yan King Li Yu has the ability to reach the sky, it is impossible to make a comeback.

Originally, I thought that I would be able to catch it all by working with Xu Hongdou.

However, the news that Hou Ji came back today made Chen Chao faintly uneasy.

Ran away a lot of people?

How did they get out?

Did someone report it in advance or did it ......?

"Xiangye, if you don't like it, your subordinates suspect that Xu Hongdou has a disobedient heart and provides us with false information." Hou Ji said solemnly, there is one thing to say.

"Is there any evidence?"

Chen Chao said lightly in his voice.

Hou Ji shook his head.

is because there is no definite evidence to prove that Xu Hongdou has one thing on the surface and one thing on his back, otherwise, he would have sent someone to arrest Xu Hongdou.

With a light sigh, Chen Chao closed his eyes and pinched his eyebrows.

Those who have escaped are always in trouble.

A bunch of outlaws who do everything.

After thinking about it, Chen Chao instructed: "In the future, when Madame goes out, double the number of people, and be sure to be foolproof." ”

"My subordinates know."

"Also, send a letter to Han Lao in Qingshan County, let Han Lao pay attention, don't capsize in the gutter."

"Understood."

At this point, the Chen Dynasty could only take measures in advance to deal with the enemy's counterattack.

"What should I do with Xu Hongdou?" Hou Ji asked, asking Chen Chao's opinion. What he meant was that if he was directly arrested and tortured, he would always ask for something.

"Don't rush for now, and then observe for a while." Chen Chao spoke slowly, he never believed in his heart that Xu Hongdou would betray him.

After a while, Chen Chao drank a cup of tea and asked casually:

"Let you rescue Xu Hongdou's parents, how is it going?"

Hou Ji pursed his lips, looking very embarrassed, and slowly lowered his head.

"Didn't you save it? Why don't you save it! Chen Chao's tone was aggravated, with a little anger.

"No, Xiangye misunderstood." Hou Ji quickly replied: "We went to rescue, but according to the news that Long Wuwei has been investigating in the capital for more than a year, Xu Hongdou's parents last appeared three years ago, and since then, there has been no news of the two of them." ”

"We suspect that Xu Hongdou's parents are no longer there, and they may have been killed by King Yan a long time ago."

"You mean, Yan King Li Yu is deceiving Xu Hongdou and deliberately concealing the news of the death of the second elder?" Chen Chao asked.

Hou Ji nodded heavily.

At the moment, this is the most likely.

Taking a deep breath and slowly exhaling it, Chen Chao stretched out his hand, his mood was slightly heavy, and his fingertips gently tapped the tabletop, making a clicking sound.

After a long while, anger appeared in Chen Chao's eyes.

Li Yu? The house was raided, and it was not for people to live in peace, and those who ran away were probably Li Yuliu's followers.

But now I can't rush it, I can only take it one step at a time.

After a few more simple instructions, Hou Ji left and went to do it immediately.

……

In the afternoon, we had lunch.

Chen Chao wanted to take a nap for a while, but he was dragged by Song Qingwansheng and stuffed into the carriage, and the carriage drove leisurely, and the destination was Nanshan, Qingyuan County.

Sitting in the carriage, Chen Chao's thoughts were flying.

Coming to ancient times, coming to this feudal dynasty called Daji, it was almost two years old, and Chen Chao felt that he was lucky, he was busy with business and entertainment in his previous life, talking and laughing in the business field, and he never got married.

Unexpectedly, in this life, God arranged a gentle wife for himself, and a few women who had not officially married into the door.

This went to Nanshan, Qingyuan County, and Chen Chao knew what to do.

Ning Baizhi sulked, hid everything in her heart, and went back to her brother and sister-in-law's house to seek comfort.

Song Qingwan pulled Chen Chao and rushed over, this trip brought a lot of gifts, there were several big cars, all of which were carefully selected by Song Qingwan, it is estimated that she wanted to officially give the Ning family a dowry, and was ready to marry Ning Baizhi back and be a concubine for Chen Chao.

The Chen Dynasty, who has been a man for two lifetimes, has never enjoyed this kind of treatment, and he can't say what he feels in his heart for a while.

In the past, it was absolutely impossible for him to let others decide who he married.

But now it is different, in ancient times, the wife had the right to take concubines for her husband.

You don't even need to get your husband's consent.

"Qingwan, it's enough for me to have you......" Chen Chao's gaze withdrew from the scenery outside the window, and sighed faintly.

Song Qingwan couldn't help but roll her eyes, gently patted Chen Chao's big hand, took a deep breath and said, "In the past, I guess Xiangye would still believe what he said...... But now. ”

"What's going on now?"

Chen Chao asked as if amused.

Song Qingwan looked at Chen Chao and responded, "Is it enough to have me?" The Queen Mother...... What's the matter with the Queen Mother? Why did Xiang Ye hook up with the Queen Mother? ”

Chen Chao was silent, reaching out and scratching his brows.

I don't dare to look at the people around me.

On the side of the road, unknown wildflowers bloomed, and Chen Chao smiled bitterly, looking so embarrassed and at a loss in Song Qingwan's eyes.

Dowager?

That's a ...... Beautiful accident.
