After recalling his shocking words, Xu Lin realized something.He sullenly said, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Chu Zhengyuan, who was considered nonsense, had no evidence to prove his innocence, so he had no choice but to show his rigor with a blank expression.

Xu Lin stared at him for a moment, and was about to say something, when a servant who didn't know much came to report in a hurry, saying that Xu Jingru had something important to ask him.

Chu Zhengyuan took the opportunity to get away, said goodbye and turned around.

"Wait!" Xu Lin shook off the impatient messenger, walked over and grabbed Chu Zhengyuan's shoulder, and whispered in his ear with full strength and deliberate suppression: "This is not a joke! Is it true? Fake?"

Chu Zhengyuan opened his hand and smiled mysteriously: "If you believe it, it's true, if you don't believe it, it's false."

He patted his ass and left, and finally added, "Uncle, don't wait for someone to come to the house to find me, I'm running away from home." Then he walked away with big strides.

Xu Lin had two rough lines on his furrowed forehead, turned around for a long time and said impatiently, "Let him go to the study."

Chu Zhengyuan, who came and went in a chic way, came out of the Xu Mansion, and the door behind him closed with a "squeak". He paused, glanced at the strange eyes cast by passers-by, looked gloomy, lowered his head slightly, and walked quickly. Down an alley by the side of the road.

The beauty on the surface is always seen by others, and the real carelessness is only hidden in the heart.

Chu Zhengyuan has been in the officialdom all these years, even if he is the eldest son of the Chu family, there are all kinds of ingratiating occasions.And the pain that he once felt was very contrary to his heart has become insignificant now.

He lowered his eyes, although he looked as confident as ever in front of others, he was always thinking about how ugly he was in the eyes of others... and the more he thought about it, the more he didn't want to bow his head.

His father, Langzi, was overly ambitious and tried every means to use all available power.It was originally a good chess game without showing any emotion, but unfortunately, Yu Bi, who didn't know what he was thinking about, had an accident and disrupted all the steps.

So when the alliances died one by one, Chu Youkang, who had nowhere to go, was probably at the end of his rope, and with the last bit of stupidity to not live without rice, Chu Zhengming asked Rong Gu to help him.

Anyway, Chu Zhengyuan felt that this method was stupid, whether it was his younger brother who was born with little brains that day, or Rong Gu who didn't have much future at first glance, being together would make things worse.

But what can be done?

In his father's eyes, he was almost useless.

There is no table above, no ability below.

Chu Zhengyuan thought bitterly, and couldn't help laughing at himself, could it be that he followed his father to rebel if he had some skills?

Heh... To put it bluntly, it's just a self-comfort aimed at reality.

He turned the corner and stopped in front of an ordinary house.I bought this for a girl in a kiln a few years ago. That girl was sold as a child. Although she is used to the vanity of rouge, gouache, silk and satin, she still has the simple and real memories of her childhood in her heart.On a whim, he heard the girl's complaint about getting out of the sea of ​​suffering, so he redeemed her body, and honestly gave her a small, unpretentious house.

Probably also when I was young at that time, I couldn't tell the difference between the longing on the lips and the real life.Anyway, the girl who talked about her hometown every day lived here for less than half a month and married a regular customer as a concubine.

It's also thanks to that girl, otherwise he wouldn't even have a place to stay in Yudu now.

He pushed the door open, and within a few steps, he heard a series of weird sounds coming from the room.His unrecognizable face couldn't show the embarrassing expression of green and white, he was stunned for a moment, and then withdrew.

No matter how the world is, the lust/lustful desires of lenient people will always be unavoidable.

The homeless Chu Zhengyuan turned around and met a woman in plain clothes. He was stunned, and immediately turned to leave in another direction. The woman in plain clothes chased after him in surprise, "Mr. Chu!"

Mr. Chu, who had been revealed the true face of Mount Lu, had no choice but to turn around with a smile, "It's hard for you to recognize me, Miss Jueying."

Although the woman in plain clothes is well maintained, she looks very young from a distance, but when she gets closer, you can still see the fine lines at the corners of her eyes and mouth, she is not a young woman.

Jueying walked up to him, looked at him carefully, then looked left and right, sighed softly, did not express her feelings, and only said: "Is the young master free? Come and sit with me?"

Chu Zhengyuan laughed, and shrugged sincerely, "Don't say I'm penniless now, even if I have money, I'm not afraid to scare away all your guests with this appearance."

"Heh..." Jueying smiled, "That guy Ji Yuan came to me every day to eat plain rice and didn't overwhelm me. It's not bad for you. Besides, now that the sky is bright and sunny, how many people come, the girls and you are also Acquaintance, don't be afraid."

The other party said so, Chu Zhengyuan had no reason to shirk, so he left with her.

On the other side, Xu Lin who was hesitant because of his words was severely reassured by Xu Jingru's experience today.

After talking about Rong Gu, Xu Jingru took out the post alluding to the person behind Rong Gu, and directly named that person by name.

"It's Chu Youkang, no doubt."

Xu Lin's heart was awe-inspiring, and he was a little convinced of Chu Zhengyuan's words.

Holding the post, he was silent for a while.To Xu Jingru: "If someone comes to you again, you agree."

Xu Jingru was puzzled, the Xu family and the Chu family were not deeply connected, and the court was in a state of non-interference in non-major events, what did his uncle mean by this?

"This matter must not be publicized!" Xu Lin thought about it, and suddenly fidgeted. He didn't pay attention to Xu Jingru who was in a state of ignorance. He said excitedly and depressed: "The emperor's leaving Xu Xuan's family alone must be of far-reaching significance. Respecting Confucianism, You hold your breath, take this opportunity to infiltrate them, and you must seize tangible evidence!"

"..." Xu Jingru thought for a while and couldn't think of any reason, so he had to ask cheekily: "Uncle, where did Xiu Youkang sing?"

Pulled back to his senses, Xu Lin glanced at his ineffective nephew, and when he was about to blurt out the words, he went back and forth in his guts and immediately calmed down.

"Xu Youkang sued his elders on the surface, but he was trying to win over power in private. What do you think his purpose is?"

Xu Jingru immediately understood the simple hint.

"That……"

Xu Lin waved his hand, "The emperor must know it well, we don't need to talk too much."

But...Xu Jingru had lingering fears about this emperor who changed his face like the sky.Since the emperor can use despicable methods to eradicate dissidents quietly, why should he care about the integrity of this place?

He was suspicious in his heart, but he didn't say anything.

……

Yu Bichu sneezed and asked how things were going south.

"General Xiao Qiao has already confronted the Meixi rebels, but there is a big gap in numbers, so we can only use spray guns to stop them temporarily." The person who sent the message paused, "Your Majesty, my lord Shuyu sent someone to the Li people for help without authorization. It is reported that the Li army is already on the way to rectify and set off."

After hearing this, Yu Bi let out a "huh" indifferently, and then asked, "What's new in the northwest?"

"There were several conflicts between Gerry and members of the family. The countries in the Northwest have also lived in peace for the time being, and there have been no major changes."

Yu Bi nodded, as if he wanted him to go down.After thinking for a while, she said, "Jiang Jiang put Miao Tong by Xiao Qiao's side...forget it, Meimei gave birth to a girl, let him go to the palace to have a look when he is healthy. Let's go back."

Li Wen responded, turned and retreated.

Yu Bichu had just taken a sip of tea when someone outside reported, "The queen is here."

A few days ago, the emperor took in a few new concubines, but the queen didn't complain, but those newcomers who made the scene made trouble for her a few times.Jiang Peihan is not someone who cares about such things, Yu Bichu didn't think of what she came to him for for a while.

"Your Majesty, the female official regulations have been fully prepared. Here are the exam questions. Please read them over."

Oh, this thing.Yu Bi took it and glanced at it hastily, then nodded indifferently, "Okay, that's it."

Jiang Peihan had no intention of leaving after finishing his official business, so Yu Bi went out to sweep the hall and said, telling Yu Jiao and the others to go out, "Come here."

Jiang Peihan strode up the steps, stood still beside the dragon's case, and did not speak for a while.

Yu Bi raised his chin to meet her gaze.

"Your Majesty, do you still remember what my concubine told you about sending Yi'er back to Pingnan?"

Yu Bi raised his eyebrows, "Yes, but Jiang Yi doesn't want to."

"That's why the concubine came today to ask the emperor to find something for Yi'er."

Jiang Yi was really looking for something, Yu Bi expressed his heart.

"what?"

"A piece of jade, engraved with the name of my ancestor of the Jiang family."

The ancestor of the Jiang family...Jiang Juqing...

Yu Bichu sounded familiar, but suddenly remembered, isn't it the piece that the emperor is holding in his hand!But why would Jiang Juqing's things be buried with the □□ emperor?

Seeing that he was in a daze, Jiang Peihan must have a clue, so he was relieved.

Sure enough, after a while, Yu Bi came out and said, "I know that jade, but it's still held by the emperor. Are you sure you want to take it by force?"
