After the general's legitimate daughter was reborn, the ascetic prime minister pinched her wais

Gao Wenyan seemed to have made Chu Xu angry again.

As a result, she was sent back home before it got dark. Gao Wenyan originally wanted to stay here to see the fun.

"Then, I'll come back tomorrow."

She turned and entered the secret passage.

There is an autumn rain and a cold, and the weather outside is slightly cool, which is like early autumn.

When Zhixing came to invite him, Chu Xu was still in the attic.

He looked around but didn't see Gao Wenyan, and Chu Xu was the only one left in the huge room.

Chu Xu didn't know what he was thinking, he looked out the window and was lost in thought.

Both light and shadow fell on him, intertwined with coldness and loneliness.

"Son."

When Zhixing called him, Chu Xu slowly turned his head, his fair face still calm.

"The prince has arrived and is in the front hall."

"Let's go."

Wang Yong was already resentful, but Chu Xu's late arrival made him even more unhappy.

However, the moment he saw Chu Xu, a smile appeared on his face again.

"I'm disturbing the Prime Minister."

He was so polite, but Chu Xu didn't even raise his eyes and just said "hmm" lightly.

Wang Yong's face froze, and he could only hold on to a smile.

"The prince came to find the truth, why?"

Chu Xu took the tea and looked at him leisurely, with a faint smile on his face, just like the way he looked in the court.

The prime minister had never been a vegetarian. Wang Yong thought about it and thought about how to start this.

"Recently there is a nursery rhyme widely spread in the capital. I wonder if the Prime Minister knows about it?"

"Have heard a little bit."

Wang Yong looked at his expression carefully, but didn't find any clues. It seemed that he had just heard about it.

"The nursery rhyme was directed at the eunuch. The Holy Emperor was furious and asked his servants to investigate the matter thoroughly."

As he spoke, he paused and asked, "What do you think, Prime Minister?"

Chu Xu glanced at him and said calmly: "The Holy Emperor ordered you to conduct a thorough investigation, but you came here to ask for the truth."

Then he joked: "Do you think the prince is the eunuch in the nursery rhyme?"

Wang Yong's face hardened, he laughed awkwardly and said, "The Prime Minister is joking."

"This slave is not very capable, so naturally he comes to ask the Prime Minister for advice."

"Why should I help you?"

One sentence stopped Wang Yong.

He originally wanted to open the skylight and speak frankly, but Chu Xu's attitude seemed to be nothing to do with him, which was his usual style.

Wang Yong was suspicious. Could it be that the spy from earlier was not from Chu Xu?

"Yes, yes. The Prime Minister naturally has no reason to help the slave."

He continued to test: "I heard that the Prime Minister was in danger in Mount Li, was he injured?"

Chu Xu glanced at him and said calmly: "Are you still like this because you are not doing well?"

"This slave is confused."

Wang Yong made some calculations and said straight to the point: "After the Prime Minister disappeared, His Majesty was particularly worried and sent many people to look for the Prime Minister."

"It's funny to say that some people actually said that they met the prime minister in Huiyuan County and walked with a girl."

In this way, he clearly told Chu Xu that those people were sent by him.

If he is punished, the fish will die and the net will be broken, and Chu Xu's absence in Lishan will be revealed.

"It's really funny. The truth is that after narrowly escaping death in Lishan, he is said to be so romantic."

"That's not it."

Wang Yong also laughed, and his sharp laughter was particularly harsh.

"Although it is said that the prime minister has an unmarried wife, this is too ridiculous."

He looked pointedly at the sachet on Chu Xu's waist.

Suddenly, Chu Xu's eyes darkened. He never liked being threatened, but he was not afraid either.

"If you have the ability, please go find me for me. It just so happens that I am missing a lady in my house."

This was half true and half false, and Wang Yong was not sure for a moment how true the rumor was.

But the appearance of Chu Xu and a woman together is an ironclad fact.

He smirked, changed the subject, and excused himself appropriately.

As soon as Wang Yong left, the ferocity in Chu Xu's eyes was revealed.

"Will he find out about the girl?"

Knowing and doing can't help but worry.

"That depends on Gao Wenxi's ability."

Wang Yong had better not find out, otherwise he would have to die quickly.

Since he went to Lishan, troubles have happened one after another with Wang Yong, and it is difficult not to doubt Chu Xu.

Chu Xu also knew that Wang Yong would not easily give up his doubts about him, but Wang Yong did so and even directly showed his cards.

But this was just what he wanted.

Because there was another thing that Chu Xu was also curious about: whether Wang Yong could detect Gao Wenyan just by relying on the sachet.

So he never thought of stopping Wang Yong.

"Go tell the girl not to come to Fuhua Building again in the short term."

To avoid unnecessary complications.

However, Gao Wenyan still came the next day.

Chu Xu happened to be in the study, and when the sound of copper coins rang out, he couldn't help but be startled, but he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

He went to the attic to open the door for Gao Wenyan, and he didn't forget to say something to her.

"Why is the girl here?"

If he didn't understand Zhi Xing, he would even suspect that Zhi Xing was not doing things well.

Gao Wenyan strode into the room without looking like a guest.

"Now in the capital city, I drink in Fuhua Tower every day. Wang Yong came to your place yesterday, so I won't go to Fuhua Tower. It's somewhat obvious."

After Lin Qianfang left, Gao Wenyan went to a flashy building that he never went to.

So everyone related the two things and said, "The girl is a person who values ​​friendship. Lin Qian is like this, but she is still sentimental."

In this regard, Chu Xu commented: "The girl really doesn't care about other people's opinions."

Gao Wenyan glanced at him fondly.

"Didn't the Prime Minister say that?"

Then she imitated Chu Xu's tone and said, "Can you believe what Jingzhong said?"

Chu Xu had no choice but to swallow his words again.

Gao Wenyan stopped teasing him and asked about business: "What's going on with Wang Yong?"

"What can I do? It's just a matter of coercion and inducement."

"What are you threatening?"

He raised his head and said lazily: "It's just because I'm not in Lishan."

"Reasonable." Gao Wenyan nodded.

The disappearance of Chu Xu Lishan was a big or small matter. Although the den of thieves had been cleared, a prefect died and a prime minister was trapped.

Even if Wang Yong exposed Chu Xu's whereabouts, he would only blame Chu Xu for Zhang Xinhong's death.

However, according to Chu Xu's report, Zhang Xinhong died in an internal fight with bandits. The notes of the forest guard Wu Hongtao were presented as evidence.

In this way, Zhang Xinhong's death was reasonable and legal.

And as long as Chu Xu refused to admit it, Wang Yong had no choice.

It's not a good thing to just arouse the suspicion of the Holy One.

Gao Wenyan said: "Wang Yong will definitely find someone to be the scapegoat."

But it doesn't matter, that's not what she meant.

Wang Yong thought they wanted to attack head-on, but she and Chu Xu were planning a further plot.

Looking for a scapegoat is just to make him more guilty.
