Lu Huaimin was already scared and screamed, she kept yelling, she was trying to get up and run, but because she was injured, she couldn't walk away at all.

Shen Yanshu and Ah Qi looked at her like this, but they didn't pay attention to it, turned around and left the alley.

Because they had already heard the sound of the guards of King An's Mansion catching up.

"Here!" A sharp-eyed guard saw Lu Huaimin, shouted loudly, and hurriedly stepped forward with someone, looked at Lu Huaimin who fell to the ground, snorted coldly, stepped forward and kicked it, "Run?

"Ahh

The guards looked at each other, looking at her like this, only as if she was pretending to be crazy and stupid, and kicked her a few harder.

Lu Huaimin screamed and curled up in a ball, and was kicked by them to cry and grab the ground, and soon fainted.

The guard who took the lead said, "Take her back and give her to King An to dispose of." ”

"She's not really crazy, is she?" said the other guard.

The person who took the lead said: "Even if you are crazy, you have to take it back, this woman is scheming and full of lies, so she will naturally take it back and punish King An severely." ”

They don't believe a word now, whether this woman is crazy or not, they have to take her back, otherwise they won't be able to explain to King An at all.

King An is now locked up and confined, although he has to think about it, but the Weng family, the Shen family, and the Dingxi Hou Mansion have all played, asking for an explanation, and even Concubine Shu has been shouting in his ears to deal with King An.

He has done so many wrong things, and the emperor naturally didn't think that he could protect him like this.

If he was not punished, he was afraid that the other princes would follow suit and do something that should not be done, so he took away his title, demoted him to a commoner, deprived him of all power, and filled his property into the treasury, but in the love of father and son, he left the new mansion for him.

King An has no power and no financial resources, and the people in the entire palace are like scattered birds and beasts, flying separately when disaster comes.

In the end, only a mansion and a few minions were left.

Lu Huaimin was locked up in the mansion and killed the next day by the angry King An, who is said to have died a miserable death.

These things have nothing to do with Shen Yanshu.

The people of the Lu family have all received the retribution they deserve, and she seems to have gotten used to her current identity, but the emperor still refuses to let go of her mother, and Shen Yanshu's eyes sank.

She sat by the lotus pond in the palace, watching the fish swim around in the lake, looking at ease, and she couldn't help but sigh.

"What are you thinking?" Yan Qinghan walked over from the small folding bridge behind her and walked to her side.

Shen Yanshu raised his head, looked at him, and asked, "The day after tomorrow is the birthday of the Queen Mother, and now that King An has also fallen, you should be busier, why did you go back to the house at this time?"

Yan Qinghan smiled and said, "These things are free for others to do." Today, the Marquis of Anding and the Prince of Anding have arrived in Chang'an, why don't you meet them?"

For these family members, Shen Yanshu has always cherished them.

However, Shen Yanshu shook his head and said, "No, their niece Qi Yunge is already dead, so why should I bother them more." ”

Yan Qinghan stepped forward and grabbed her hand, but found that her hand was a little cold.

"It's windy outside, let's go back to the yard. He hugged Shen Yanshu's shoulder and said.

Shen Yanshu nodded and walked back in the direction of the courtyard with him.

"Is there any movement on the Emperor's side?" Shen Yanshu asked as he walked.

Yan Qinghan said: "Recently, the matter of the eldest brother has given him a headache, but he has no flaws to take care of the others, he summoned the Marquis of Anding to the palace today, and proposed to let them settle in Chang'an, but the Marquis of Anding's refusal." ”

Shen Yanshu's eyes flashed, although his grandfather didn't want to cause more trouble, he was by no means soft, and even the emperor couldn't force what he didn't agree with.

Before the emperor gave a mansion to Jiang Wu and Yun Hao, although Jiang Wu accepted it, she still lived in the Zhaojun Palace, the emperor asked about it, and the princess of Zhaojun just said that the sisterhood was deep, and she was naturally reluctant to let her live in other places, not to mention that since the mansion was given, it was not the emperor's business to live if she couldn't live.

Now the emperor covets Jiang Wu's beauty, and some ministers know it in their hearts, but because of the royal face, they naturally don't dare to talk nonsense, and the emperor himself doesn't know that his every move towards Jiang Wu is understood as ulterior motives.

So before the end of the Queen Mother's birthday, he would definitely not dare to make a move like Jiang Wu, so that the princes and princes of Chang'an would gather together, if there was any bad reputation, he would not be able to get over his face.

"By the way, today Lin Che went to Weng's Mansion to discuss his marriage. Yan Qinghan said.

When Shen Yanshu heard this, he suddenly paused, turned his head and looked at Yan Qinghan with some surprise: "Chu Shizi, go to Weng's Mansion to discuss marriage?"

Yan Qinghan nodded.

Shen Yanshu chuckled lightly and said, "They are quite suitable for the enemy. ”

Yan Qinghan said: "It's rare for Linche to take it so seriously, I think it should be settled soon." ”

The two of them were talking, but Chu Linche was not as easy as they imagined.

In Weng's mansion, Chu Linche, Mrs. Dingxi Hou and the matchmaker were sitting in the guest seats on the side.

On the main seat sat the imperial historian Weng Jin, but opposite Chu Linche sat many people, such as Ruan Leyao's two uncles, as well as his aunt and five cousins......

With so many pairs of eyes looking at him, Chu Linche, who was used to being casual on weekdays, also sat up, looking a little restrained.

Weng Jin opened his mouth and said: "Chu Shizi is now serving in the Yushitai, and the old man can see it clearly, he is a good child. ”

Mrs. Dingxi Hou said: "It's best for Lord Weng to understand that, I look at Le Yao's child is not bad, the key is that Che'er really wants to marry Le Yao, so how does Lord Weng think of the marriage of the two children?"

As soon as Mrs. Hou's words came out, Weng Jin did not respond immediately.

He said: "I still have to ask Yao'er's opinion on this matter, after all, this is a major event in her life, so let her decide for herself after all." ”

Weng Congying, who was on the side, looked at Chu Linche and asked, "I don't know why Chu Shizi wants to marry his cousin?"

Chu Linche was slightly stunned, and then said, "Naturally, it's because I like it." ”

Weng Congying asked again: "The gossip about my cousin these days, I guess the prince knows a lot, doesn't the prince care?"

When he asked this question, everyone's eyes looked at Chu Linche.

Chu Linche said: "I know very well how she behaves, those gossips are just other people's speculations, I naturally believe her." ”

When Mrs. Weng heard this, she nodded with satisfaction.

Although Chu Linche's reputation is a little mixed, he seems to be a good person now, and he just made military exploits a few days ago, and now he is working under Weng Jin, which is excellent.

"Go and ask Yao'er what she means. Weng Jin glanced at the housekeeper and said, "Invite Miss Biao over." ”

"Grandfather, no, I'm here. Ruan Leyao stepped forward lightly and stepped through the door.

Everyone's eyes looked at Ruan Leyao, only to see her step forward and salute Weng Jin, then turned around and thought about Mrs. Dingxi Hou and saluted, and said, "I don't agree to this matter." ”

As soon as she said this, everyone was quite surprised, especially Mrs. Dingxi Hou.

Mrs. Dingxihou asked puzzledly, "Why is this?" But what did Che'er do badly?"

When Chu Linche was injured a few days ago, Ruan Leyao went to visit him every day, and even made soup herself, originally thought that this was a beautiful thing for the two to be happy, why didn't she agree?

Ruan Leyao said: "The son is very good, but I am not worthy of the son." ”

After saying that, he turned and left, leaving a group of people who had not yet reacted.

Chu Linche hurriedly followed.

"Yao'er!" Weng Jin called, but he didn't react, watching Ruan Leyao run farther and farther.

Mrs. Weng looked at Mrs. Dingxihou with some apologies and said, "I'm sorry, Yao'er is rude." ”

Mrs. Dingxi Hou is not such a stingy person, but this time she really doesn't understand, why did Ruan Leyao refuse?

She lowered her eyes and said, "Let them young people talk about it by themselves, if Miss Ruan is really unhappy, it is not this blessing in our Hou Mansion." ”

Mrs. Weng said: "Mrs. Hou, where is this, we Le Yao are not sensible. ”

The people in the hall where the guests were entertained were still there, but Ruan Leyao had already walked back to her courtyard quickly, Chu Linche chased after her, and Yiba grabbed her wrist and told her to stop.

Ruan Leyao turned her head to look at him: "Chu Linche, I said I don't want to get married, why do you still want to come to discuss marriage?"

Chu Linche said: "Because I also said that I want to marry you." ”

"I don't need your charity to be pitiful. Ruan Leyao stared at his eyes and said, "If you really want to get married, there are many young ladies in Chang'an City." ”

She was about to shake off Chu Linche's hand, but found that she couldn't break free at all by being tightly dragged by him.

Ruan Leyao said angrily: "What the hell do you want to do!"

Chu Linche stared at her eyes and stepped forward step by step, Ruan Leyao could only go back step by step, and finally Ruan Leyao found that she had no way out, because behind her was a big tree.

Chu Linche said: "I will tell you again, I don't want to marry you because I sympathize with you and pity you, but I like you and really want you to be my wife, so please take it seriously." ”

Ruan Leyao was stunned in place, she looked at Chu Linche in a daze, she could feel that he was really angry, it was the first time she saw him so angry and crazy.

"I ......"

She just wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Chu Linche.

"If you don't agree today, I'll come back tomorrow, if you don't agree tomorrow, I'll come back the day after tomorrow, unless you really find the man you like. Chu Linche said.

Ruan Leyao looked at him and asked, "Are you serious?"

Chu Linche nodded.

She fell silent, her head bowed, not knowing what she was thinking.

Looking at her appearance, Chu Linche hurriedly let go of her hand: "You...... Do you really hate me?"

"That's right. Ruan Leyao raised her head to meet his gaze and said, "So you have to be prepared to be bullied by me." ”

Chu Linche also laughed: "I promise that I won't fight back when I scold, and I won't fight back!"
