At night, before Wei Zhan recovered from the news that Dr. Jiang had secretly returned to Beijing and entered the palace, he heard that the king of Henan suddenly appeared outside the city, and captured Deputy General Ma and others who intended to sneak into the plague village to kill the villagers!
"How can deputy general ma do it himself? What's going on?"
In the study of the seventh Prince's mansion, Wei Zhan is furious.
The boy who came to reply knelt on the ground and shivered: "listen to the news from there, it's Deputy General Ma who plans to start quietly when he sees that the king of Yu is not coming. As a result, he leads people into the village to kill people. Changqing, the guard of the king of Yu, suddenly comes out and catches him on the spot. Besides Deputy General Ma, everyone else has admitted that he was ordered to slaughter the village by Deputy General Ma."
"Well, I haven't given up yet. "Wei Zhan's eyes are as slender as a poisonous snake.
Listening to his tone, the boy felt as if a poisonous snake was climbing up his trousers and nodded: "only Deputy General Ma knows about you, but now Deputy General Ma is detained by the people of the king of Yu. It's estimated that he won't be able to enter Beijing until tomorrow. Do you want me to send someone to solve it tonight?"
"No way, uncle Yu's abnormal behavior, I'm afraid he has noticed that the plague village has something to do with me." Although Wei Zhan can't figure out how his absolutely secret plan was known by Wei Linyuan, he can confirm that he has been exposed now.
The boy sniffed the speech and looked at him nervously: "in case the Vice Admiral Ma confessed to you..."
"No, he'll shut up if he doesn't want his family involved. But it's a disaster to keep him. " Wei Zhan's face was slightly cold. His cold eyes swept the dancing candle on his desk. He seemed to think of something. He picked his eyebrows slightly: "find someone to go to Su's house and tell Su Changxiao that when Uncle Yu enters Beijing tomorrow, I want to see Lin Chuyu appear in the street."
"The fallen princess?"
"That's right." Wei Zhan thought of Lin Chuyu's beautiful appearance in red clothes, and his interest became more and more intense: "I'd like to see whether this woman is important in Uncle Yu's eyes, or I'm important to find out what's behind Deputy General Ma." If Lin Chuyu is more important, he will know how to completely eliminate the powerful opponent of the king of Yu!
The little boy was confused: "but isn't the king of Yu always showing his kindness to the eighth miss of the Su family? Shall we take the eighth miss out?"
Wei Zhan thinks of Su Yiyi, turns his finger disdainfully and says, "Su Yiyi is just a cover. Uncle Yu is afraid that he really wants Lin Chuyu, so he wants to make such a cover to protect her from disaster. Unfortunately, how can a woman like Su Yiyi enter his eyes..."
That night.
When Lin Chuyu saw that Wan Qing hadn't come back, he was always worried. Until midnight, he heard something at the door of the house. When the door creaked, it was pushed away from the outside.
"Miss..."
Wan Qing ran over quickly. Lin Chuyu let go of her vigilance. Seeing her hair in a disorderly bun, she was a bit embarrassed. She leaned on the bedside and asked her in a low voice: "I'm afraid there's something wrong with her coming back this time."
Wan Qing thought of the scene that she had just come back, but she was still worried: "I was going to come back last night, but I happened to meet someone and I followed her for a while, so I delayed coming back."
"With whom? Why is it all day long? " Lin Chuyu asked.
Nu Wan was worried that she was the same as Wang Nan when she was biting her maidservant's lips
Lin Chuyu suddenly remembered that Princess ten said that Princess Runan wanted to adopt her daughter. The memory of her previous life vaguely floated up. It seemed that Princess Runan did take an adopted daughter, but before long, the adopted daughter was assassinated by the old enemy of Beiyan. Later, King Runan, who had been deposed from military power, used this as an excuse to ask the emperor for military power and went to fight against her in person.
Lin Chuyu remembers that this incident was still widely talked about at that time. Everyone praised that the Runan palace attached great importance to love and justice. But now, how did Lin Chuyu feel that it was very strange?
"What's the matter with you, miss? "Wan Qing saw that she was in a trance and asked carefully.
"I'm ok, Wanqing. Where did the girl you followed go and what did she do?" Lin Chuyu looked at her, and the cold air in her eyes disappeared in the dark. She didn't think much about it. She only recalled: "she went to an inn called" zuixianju "in the east of the city. I wanted to talk to her, but I went in and lost her. The maid inquired up and down. As a result, she was almost suspected, so she had to hide first. Today, they relaxed and got away from her …”
Wan Qing continues to describe the scene at that time. Lin Chuyu just slowly closes her eyes. I hope she thinks too much and that the adoption of her daughter is not a trap set by the Runan King couple in order to regain military power.
"What happened to the person you were looking for?" Lin Chuyu asked to get back to business. Before that, he asked Wanqing to look for someone who could use it. If he could, it would be better.
Wan Qing saw that she didn't blame her much, and she was relieved quietly. She nodded: "I found it. I'll take him to salute you when I'm free. This man was known by the maidservant when he was a child. He has been working on the wharf for so many years, and has a wide range of people. Although all he knows are peddlers and pawns, it is these people who can get the most secret information. " Wan Qing looks at Lin Chuyu with bright eyes. She knows that what Miss needs now must be such a person.Lin Chuyu looked at Wan Qing's appearance and said with a smile, "it's the best. Does he have a family? "
" no, he grew up with my family when his parents died when he was young. He is smart, but he knows his duty, and he is very disciplined, and And "Wan Qing lowered her head, pinched the corner of her clothes and stammered.
Lin Chuyu suddenly understand, dare to feeling Wan Qing, this is the heart of the dark Xu.
"Well, bring it back to me. If you can, I'll give him an account. But there's one thing I want to tell you. Follow me. There must be a lot of danger."
"The maid told him, and he said he was not afraid." Wan Qing said with a smile.
Lin Chuyu looked at Wanqing, who trusted him wholeheartedly. For some reason, she was always worried. But she thought that she had never seen this man before, so she couldn't judge him. She only told him, "but before I met him, you can't tell him anything about me. Do you understand?"
"Don't worry, young lady." Wan Qing said immediately.
The next day, before dawn, Lin Chuyu got up and prepared to go to the palace to greet the Empress Dowager. Unexpectedly, the unexpected guests came first.
"Is sister Chuyu going to the palace? Just in time, I'm going to visit my mother at my grandfather's house. Let's go together." Su yunrou wears a light pink long dress with a ribbon of the same color around her waist. She wears a snow-white fox fur. Her black hair pours down behind her. Her eyes and teeth look like fairies. But when she walks in, she still loses some color in front of Lin Chuyu.
Lin Chuyu is different from her gentle and friendly temperament. In a red dress, Lin Chuyu stands there, alienated and indifferent, just like the isolated plum blossom on the cliff facing the wind on the snow mountain, with coolness and inviolable nobility.
Su yunrou looked at her face to face, pulled the handkerchief tightly, carefully hid the jealousy of her eyes, and said with a gentle smile: "sister Chuyu should not mind riding the same carriage with me."
"Naturally." Lin Chuyu knows that she is not well intentioned when she comes to the palace, but she has to deal with her here. She can't delay when she goes to the palace. She thinks that Su yunrou is not so bold that she knows she wants to enter the palace.
Wan Qing is still a little uneasy, but Bai Xue was beaten swollen yesterday. She can't get out of the door, so she can only follow her all the way.
When she left the house, Lin Chuyu also heard about Su Yiyi's symptoms. Yesterday, there was no one in the hospital, so she had to invite an ordinary doctor. When the ordinary doctor saw Su Yiyi's constant sneezing and runny nose, and then her yellow tongue and empty eyes, he was afraid to say it wasn't tuberculosis, so Su Yiyi was temporarily isolated in his yard.
"I'm afraid my grandfather wants to send me to Chuang Tzu for cultivation. Yiyi is also pitiful. How can I get tuberculosis when I'm young? If I were you, I would definitely invite about ten doctors to come and have a look." On the carriage, Su yunrou said with regret, but in a tone of a little tentative.
Lin Chuyu said with a smile: "fortunately eight younger sister's illness is not deep, as long as a good rest, or can be cured."
"It's natural that the second aunt is such an only daughter. If she can't be cured, the second aunt's life will be half gone, and the second aunt's mother's family won't give up easily. There is no peaceful day in the Su family." Su yunrou looks at Lin Chuyu for fear of missing the slightest change on her face.
Lin Chuyu looks calm with her, but her heart is indifferent. Does Su yunrou think that what she wants is the chaos in Su's house?
The carriage was shaking. Gradually, the outside became lively. After passing the downtown, she walked for another half an hour to the outside of the palace. But Lin Chuyu still didn't relax her vigilance. She didn't relax until the outside of the carriage became quiet.
But just because of this moment of relaxation, the carriage stopped abruptly.
Lin Chuyu immediately reached for the edge of the carriage to prevent herself from falling out. However, she found that there were many sharp wooden thorns on the edge of the carriage. When she caught it, she was stabbed through in an instant. The pain made her tears come out, but fortunately, she managed to hold on.
Su yunrou saw that she didn't fall out and frowned. She immediately asked: "what's the matter?"
"Miss, there are robbers..." The rickshaw puller's shaking voice made Lin Chuyu's face slightly heavy!
Just thinking about it, a big knife obviously stained with blood immediately lifted the curtain of the car. Lin Chuyu saw that a tall and strong man in black directly put the knife on her neck. The cold blade touched the delicate skin on Lin Chuyu's neck, and the warm blood immediately gushed out.
"Chu Yu, what to do..." Su yunrou's voice trembles and she cries. Lin Chuyu looks at Su yunrou, who seems to be scared. Her teeth are slightly tight. This time, it's her blunder.
"Come out! "The man in black yelled.
Lin Chuyu took back her right hand, which was full of blood beside the car, and tried to move it. But those wooden thorns stuck in the palm of her hand, which made her feel so painful that she didn't even have the strength to hold it, let alone take the powder in her sleeve.
Lin Chuyu looked out through the opened car curtain and found that there was no one in the alley, and the guards of Su's house were gone, not to mention them.
There was no other way. Lin Chuyu had to get out of the carriage first and then think about how to deal with it. But before the carriage got out, a familiar voice came.
