Murong Xiao rubbed the black iron ring between his fingers and looked at Chu Zhao quietly without saying anything.

If Chu Zhao had said this three months ago, not only would he not have believed it, but he might have thought that Chu Zhao was bluffing to gain his attention.

But now Chu Zhao has successfully changed his mind with his amazing actions again and again.

He knew she was capable and believed in her abilities, but that didn't mean he could trust her unconditionally.

Although Chu Zhao did everything with the intention of helping him, he always felt uneasy.

She is obviously his, but she is not under his control, and she seems to be able to take his place at any time.

Of course, he didn't believe that Chu Zhao, a woman, could really replace him, but Chu Zhao also had a cunning father, and Chu Jinshan spent all his family property to support him, so it was impossible not to leave some backup.

He was worried about Chu Jinshan and could not figure out Chu Zhao. Naturally, he did not dare to risk telling Chu Zhao everything.

He chose to protect the Su family father and daughter temporarily because he had complete control over the father and daughter. After the matter was completed, their life and death would be determined by his thoughts.

What's more, he wants to use Magistrate Su to catch a big fish.

Due to the above, Murong Xiao finally told Chu Zhao nothing.

"You don't need to know too much. Just listen to me and wait patiently." He said solemnly.

What else could Chu Zhao do?

Even if Murong Xiao didn't say anything, she couldn't forcefully open his mouth. She could only plan secretly and act according to the opportunity. No matter what, she couldn't let Wusul take the opportunity to cause any damage.

She could ignore Murong Xiao, but she couldn't ignore the people of Yunzhou.

"I understand. Since the prince said so, I will believe in the prince again. Just this time, it will not be the same next time."

Murong Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that dealing with her was more troublesome than dealing with all the staff.

"The princess is so reasonable, I am very pleased." He smiled and took Chu Zhao's hand and said softly, "The princess was frightened today, so I will stay with you tonight to comfort you."

"..."

This sudden turn of events almost made Chu Zhao unable to react.

Forget it, Chu Zhaoxin said, compared to that fright, yours is the real fright.

"Your Majesty, don't worry about me. You should go back and strengthen the defense in the mansion!" Chu Zhao said, "Someone can enter the dungeon and kill the assassin without anyone noticing. How can your Majesty still sleep?"

Murong Xiao held her hand. He was still a little distracted at first, but when she said this, he lost all his thoughts.

"Don't worry, I have changed my defenses and am secretly screening suspicious persons."

"Yeah." Chu Zhao nodded and said, "Even so, we can't relax. If the hidden dangers are not eliminated, chaos will occur at any time. You can go back and strengthen the patrol to make everyone alert. Don't take it lightly."

"……it is good."

Murong Xiao almost said "yes", but when the words came to his lips, he realized something was wrong and hurriedly changed it to "ok".

This mistake made his heart skip a beat and his back felt tight.

what happened?

He had always been the one to give orders, but he had never used this word to others, making him seem to be bowing down to Chu Zhao.

He slowed down and glanced across Chu Zhao's face casually.

After Chu Zhao was briefly angry, he returned to his calm and indifferent appearance.

Somehow, Murong Xiao suddenly remembered the people outside the Divine Doctor's Hall and the scene where his own bodyguards were obedient to Chu Zhao's orders.

He turned the black iron finger in silence, said nothing more, turned around and walked out.

Chu Zhao followed him to see him off in a perfunctory manner, then thought of something and said, "My lord, please return my sword to me, so that I can keep it with me for self-defense."

Murong Xiao paused. Although he was a little reluctant to let go, at this juncture, it was difficult to refuse her.

Then he nodded and agreed, "I will ask someone to bring it to you later."

He found that Chu Zhao was very good at choosing the right time to ask for something, and every time he chose a time when he felt guilty about her, making him unable to open his mouth to refuse.

This woman is really thoughtful.

I really wonder if she has become semen through a sieve.

Murong Xiao was thinking wildly, and when he went out, he saw A'ao still guarding outside, and couldn't help but feel upset again.

How could anyone be so obedient and obedient to Chu Zhao?

What is the magic of this woman?

Could it be that she not only has medical skills, but also can control people's hearts?

Her all-powerful Baiyun Guan master taught her some sorcery that he couldn't achieve?

Simply inexplicable!

Murong Xiao left depressedly.

As soon as he left, the second steward arrived and told Chu Zhao that Concubine Su had smashed things twice in one day and had sent Chun Ying to deliver a message to Magistrate Su.

Chu Zhao asked what kind of letter he was sending, and the second steward shook his head and said he didn't know.

After saying that, he was afraid that Chu Zhao would think he was useless again, so he hurriedly explained: "The letter has a very strange paint pattern added. I have never seen it before, and I am worried that it will not be able to be restored after being opened, and it will only scare the snake."

Chu Zhao frowned when he heard this: "What kind of pattern is it, do you still remember it?"

"Remember, small ones are hard to describe, but you can try to draw them." The second steward said.

Chu Zhao asked Ah Ao to give him pen and paper.

The second steward picked up the pen, considered it for a moment, drew a symbol, and handed the paper back to Aao.

"What kind of talisman is this?" A'ao took it and took a look at it, then presented it to Chu Zhao with both hands.

Chu Zhao looked at it and found that he didn't recognize it either.

She speculated that either the second manager's painting skills were too poor and the painting was unreal, or the symbol was a unique secret code between the Su family's father and daughter.

Or is it a foreign language?

Chu Zhao's heart moved, and he suddenly thought of a possibility.

"You said the concubine smashed things twice. When did she do it?" she asked the second manager.

The second steward said: "The first time was after leaving Qionghuayuan in the morning, and the second time was when the prince and princess brought the assassin back to the house."

The answer was pretty much what Chu Zhao had expected. She then asked, "When did you send the letter to Magistrate Su?"

The second steward thought for a while and said, "It was after the princess went out in the morning."

Chu Zhao nodded and roughly sorted out a timeline.

In the morning, Su Nuanyu dressed up as a big butterfly to provoke her. After learning that she didn't want the housekeeper rights, Murong Xiao gave it to her as a favor. In anger, she smashed things and wrote to Magistrate Su, asking him to send assassins to kill her on the street.

As a result, the assassin failed, and Murong Xiao dispatched his own military guards to rescue her, and brought a survivor back to the palace. Su Nuanyu was so angry that she smashed something again, and then ordered someone to wait for an opportunity to kill the assassin to silence her.

Several pieces of information can be inferred from this:

First, Magistrate Su cares about his daughter and listens to her.

Secondly, Magistrate Su secretly kept some assassins, and those assassins were his assassins. If they failed in their mission, they would commit suicide by taking poison.

Third, there are hidden stakes planted by the Su family father and daughter in the palace, and there is more than one person. The chief steward who died earlier was also one of their people.

Fourth, it is impossible for a serious prefect to raise dead soldiers, let alone risk placing dead soldiers in the palace just to help his daughter win favor and position.

In this way, can she conclude that the reason why Su Nuanyu went to great lengths to get the position of princess was not simply to fight for favor and power in the back house, but because she wanted to use her status as princess to do something that others could not do? thing.

So, what she wants to do is the instruction of Su Zhifu, or is she and Su Zhifu a cooperative relationship, and both of them have to obey the orders of their superiors?

Who will it be online?

Chu Zhao's eyes fell on the ghost-drawing talisman of the second manager, and he tapped it twice with his fingers.

Perhaps, by figuring out the meaning of this ghostly drawing, the problem can be easily solved.

Chu Zhao pinched his eyebrows and asked the second steward: "Are there any Wusu people in Yunzhou City?"

"Usul?" The second steward was stunned for a moment and nodded, "Yes, there are, but because the two countries have no diplomatic relations, they are all illegal immigrants and do not dare to act with their true identities. They dress and speak imitate the locals, making it easy to tell them apart. Not coming out.”

It’s not easy to tell the difference, so maybe you can put some effort into it, right?Chu Zhao silently checked the people in his hands and decided to leave this matter to General Xiao.

A second-rate person has the advantages of being a second-rate person, especially a second-rate person who digs in wherever there is excitement.

"You should go back first!" Chu Zhao said to the second steward, "Tomorrow I will replace all the porcelain in Concubine Su's room with large coarse porcelain bowls and smash them twice a day. No matter how big the family fortune is, it cannot withstand such squandering."

"...Yes." The second steward suppressed a smile and resigned. The next day, someone actually carried a basket of large porcelain bowls to the Rose Garden.

Su Nuanyu almost lost her temper and threw a bunch of bowls on the spot.

The second steward came to report to Chu Zhao again. Zi Luo listened to his description and said that Concubine Su was like a hero who made an alliance with blood.

Everyone in the room was so amused by her that they burst into laughter.
