Chapter 388: Saving People (Part II)
The first thing Yun Lu thought of was Chen Ao's confidante who was caught in the palace by Zhao Heng.
She hesitated for a while, as if she was weighing whether to help Chen Ao. From the very beginning, Yun Lu misunderstood the essence of this matter, and thought that Chen Ao's lover was taken by Zhao Heng and forcibly accepted into the harem. Therefore, Yunlu is sympathetic to Chen Ao, and because of this, she is so disdainful of Chen Ao's behavior of accepting the knighthood and molesting Gong E.
But if Chen Ao still dares to risk the world's condemnation to save his beloved woman, then Yun Lu is very appreciative. So she asked, "Have you found her?"
Chen Ao nodded and said, "Yes, count me lucky......" As soon as he said half a sentence, he realized that Yunlu had misunderstood what he meant. He hurriedly explained: "Miss Yunlu, the person I want to ask you to rescue is not Zhao Ling, but all one person!"
Yun Lu wondered, "Who is the other one?"
Chen Ao smiled awkwardly and said, "Actually, it's not an outsider, it's my other confidante, hehe......"
Yun Lu's face changed, she really couldn't cry or laugh, and she was a little angry in her heart. She couldn't help but scold: "Chen Ao, your womanhood is really good!"
Chen Ao didn't notice Yun Lu's strange appearance, and said with a dry smile: "Hehe, I didn't think it before, but I didn't realize it until this era." I think I've been here for more than ten years to save character now!"
Yunlu is also the first time to see such a thick-skinned person, and what is even more strange is that Chen Ao can't hear the sarcasm in her words at all, and he is not ashamed, but proud. In fact, Yunlu is not unacceptable to men with three wives and four concubines. The man she met had a group of wives and concubines at home, and he had to go to the Qinglou to have fun. Chen Ao is already good. It's just that Chen Ao hasn't solved Zhao Ling's matter yet, but he is thinking about another woman, which really makes Yunlu a little unacceptable.
She said angrily: "What happened to you, a confidante, and I, a woman in a green building, can I help?"
Chen Ao said with a smile: "This girl's name is Liang Xiaoya, and now she is also lost in the palace." After he finished speaking, he walked to the window and called: "Xiaoya, Xiaoya, there is a way to get out, come into the house!"
After a while, Liang Xiaoya entered the Linfeng Pavilion uneasily, and glanced at Yunlu timidly. When Tong'er saw her, it turned out to be the palace maid who was "flirting" with Chen Ao, and couldn't help but exclaim.
Yunlu finally understood that the so-called molestation was just a misunderstanding. She was slightly relieved, and she couldn't help but laugh, thinking to herself, why does this guy's woman like to run to the palace?
Chen Ao couldn't fully trust Yunlu and didn't dare to tell the truth, so he had to say that Liang Xiaoya wanted to see what the palace looked like, so he followed people into the palace, but he couldn't get out. Finally, he said: "Miss Yunlu, Xiaoya is not the person His Majesty wants to arrest, and it is not illegal to take her out." I'm a man, and I'm having some trouble taking a woman from the palace. If Miss Yunlu is willing to help, this matter will not be difficult. ”
Yun Lu was skeptical and did not fully believe Chen Ao's words. She pondered for a moment, and had already thought of an idea, so she nodded and agreed, and said, "Later, I will ask the official family to let me take a palace lady and listen to me." So I can take this little sister away!"
Chen Aoxi said: "That's right! Then I will thank Miss Yunlu for her great kindness!"
Liang Xiaoya was finally able to get out of the palace, and she also put away her usual wayward temper and thanked Yunlu.
Yun Lu raised her hand and said lightly: "Lord Chen, I am just an ordinary Qinglou woman, and I have always only looked at whether it is beneficial to me. I help Master Chen, and naturally I want to get something in return!"
Chen Ao couldn't help but feel strange when he heard her tone suddenly turn cold. Yunlu said to Tong'er: "Tong'er, you go to play outside the door first, I have something to say to Master Chen." ”
Tong'er obediently answered. Yun Lu looked at Liang Xiaoya, the meaning in her eyes was very clear, and she obviously wanted Liang Xiaoya to avoid it.
Chen Ao felt strange in his heart, and he didn't know what conditions Yunlu wanted to put forward to him. But since she agreed to take Liang Xiaoya out, for this, Chen Ao had to agree to Yunlu's conditions.
He glanced at Liang Xiaoya and said, "You accompany Miss Tong'er at the door!"
Liang Xiaoya answered, whispered, "Be careful!" and then went out.
Yun Lu watched her go out, and couldn't help but sigh: "I can't imagine that this Xiaoya sister cares about you very much! Presumably, that Zhao Ling girl is also beautiful and gentle, right?"
Chen Ao smiled: "She is not only beautiful and gentle, but also witty, she is my female Zhuge !"
Yun Lu sneered and said, "Yes, if it weren't for that, how could she be favored by Your Majesty, and even though she was a courtier, she would be included in the harem!"
Chen Ao knew that she had misunderstood, and he couldn't explain it, so he had to say, "Miss Yunlu, what do you want in return? ”
Yun Lu didn't answer, but sneered and said, "Do you think I'm a pretentious woman? A few days ago, she didn't make any promises to Your Majesty, but once she learned that he was the emperor, she did everything she could to please him, and she had no character at all?"
Chen Ao did think so in his heart, but he couldn't say it. However, he also feels that it is understandable for a woman like Yunlu to like status, power and money. After all, being able to get out of a place like Gunfangin is also a relief.
Yun Lu smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, why aren't you? You originally wanted to save your lover from entering Beijing, but now you are not an official and a knight, and you are a sycophant? A woman in exchange for the position of marquis and glory and wealth, this deal should be worth it, right?"
Chen Ao couldn't help but slap the table and stood up. But he was about to refute, but he held back again. Tomorrow is the moment of action, and he can't afford to make a difference.
Yun Lu continued: "Do you know why I ended up in the Qinglou? In fact, I was originally a woman from an official eunuch's family. Just because my father was awe-inspiring and said something that should not be said, he offended the first emperor and the whole family was guilty. And I also lived in the Jiaofang Division, and was redeemed and bought back by Master Cao, so I have today's Yunlu......"
When Chen Ao heard about Yun Lu's life experience for the first time, he couldn't help but feel some sympathy, and asked, "Just because you say a few words, you will be convicted?
Yun Lu shook her head and said, "Speaking of which, it was more than ten years ago, and if you are not in the capital, you must not understand." At that time, there was a great hero who resisted the Khitan and saved the common people, but the result aroused the suspicion of the first emperor. The first emperor arrested his wife, lured him into the imperial city, and killed his family in the imperial city. It was for this incident that my father denounced the wrongdoings of the court and killed the meritorious people, and he was convicted. My father was awe-inspiring, but now I have to serve the emperor, which is really ironic. Hmph, Chen Ao, you are ruthless, I am unrighteous, think about it, it's really the same person!"
Chen Ao heard something unusual from her words. But he hadn't been able to figure out what it was that made him wonder.
Yunlu suddenly got up and took a few steps forward. In this way, the distance between her and Chen Ao is very close. Chen Ao couldn't help but panic when he looked at a stunning beauty so closely. He trembled, "You...... What are you going to do?"
Yun Lu lowered her voice, but said very firmly: "Chen Ao, shouldn't the hatred of killing your father and taking your wife be the biggest hatred in the world? Are you willing to swallow such hatred? I have hatred, you have hatred, don't you want to join forces with me to avenge this hatred?"
