I heard that the emperor has a crush on me

After hearing what Chen Man said, Chen Zhizhao snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves and left, while Chen Man's mother sat in her original seat and looked at her daughter who was sitting at the bottom. It changed into a different appearance overnight. Mrs. Chen kept staring at Chen Man, but another memory appeared in her mind.

It was still a month ago, when she accidentally ran into a woman holding a dagger in the back garden of the Chen Mansion, and executed the death sentence on a person lying on the ground, and the person on the ground could no longer be called "" "Human", but a mass of fleshy paste, but still breathing, Mrs. Chen was terrified, but she didn't dare to yell out, so she had to cover her mouth tightly to prevent herself from making a sound, and at this time it seemed that the maid Tired of playing, he cut the throat of the man underground with a knife, then took out a silk handkerchief to wipe his hands, then turned around, the moonlight was as cold as ice, shining on the woman's face, Madam Chen's eyes widened. Even bigger, because that face is the one she is most familiar with.

Mrs. Chen didn't know how she got back to the room that night, let alone how she faced her husband's question to her. In her mind, there was only a woman with the moonlight behind her back, her face was indifferent, and she was holding a handful of blood drops in her hand. dagger, and not far from it, there is a corpse lying there.

Chen Man seemed to feel Madam Chen's gaze, then raised her phoenix eyes, and met Madam Chen's gaze directly, causing Madam Chen to look away unnaturally, and turned to look at the blue jade bracelet on her hand.

"What else is there to do, mother?" A slightly hoarse voice came from behind the curtain, stabbing at the woman sitting in the main seat like ice.

Mrs. Chen's complexion turned pale, but she still suppressed the discomfort in her heart, pulled out a slightly kind smile, and said softly to Chen Man: "Man'er has grown up too, and she is going to pick a husband. The clothes and dowry at the time of marriage are the face of a woman. If it is not done well, it will be ridiculed. What's more, our Chen family is still a big family with seals. Wait a while, mother will take a few people to the back to see what I bought for you before. The dowry, if you add a few more pieces, it won't make people laugh, so if you have any ideas, you can tell your mother, and your mother will arrange it for you early."

Chen Man got up slowly, made a blessing ceremony slightly, and then said softly to Mrs. Chen: "Daughter, thank you mother, I have to worry about the dowry."

Mrs. Chen shook her head with a kind smile, took off the jade bracelet in her hand, and then asked Chen Man to come forward and put the jade bracelet on Chen Man's hand. She took Chen Man's hand and spoke earnestly. Said: "Silly boy, I'm your mother, how can I say that you don't work hard, not to mention that your body has just recovered, and mother can't bear you to be tired. You see, this hand is still so cold. Go back to the room and rest quickly. Everything is up to me and your father."

Chen Man took a step back, bowed to Mrs. Chen again, and left with her two maidservants.

And when Chen Man left, Mrs. Chen became weak and collapsed on the main seat. The nurse next to her wanted to say something, but she waved her hand and rubbed her forehead as if she was talking to someone else. It seems to be talking to himself: "Nowadays, a home doesn't feel like a home, and a city doesn't look like a city. It's really... ridiculous."

On the way back to her boudoir after leaving the lobby, Chen Man made a detour to the back garden, and saw a peony blooming in the distance, she walked forward, gently stroked the petals of the peony, and then said to herself Sui Mang next to him said: "Have you found out who the person was that day?"

"This...return to master, it has been found out, it is...it is Madam." Sui Mang lowered his head and said awkwardly.

Chen Man plucked a peony flower that was blooming with all his strength, then held it in his palm, crushed it into mud, then closed his eyes slightly, threw the peony flower mud in his hand on the ground, and then turned around , and told her in a low voice when passing by Suimang: "Don't let the third person know about this, I don't want anyone to hurt her."

"It's Miss, this subordinate understands." Sui Mang stood aside respectfully. She didn't know what secrets her lady had, and she never doubted her lady. She only had obedience to her lady in her heart. Miss, I am afraid that I have already been sold into a brothel by that money-greedy aunt, living a life that would be worse than death, so even if the lady arranged for me to learn everything about killers, I have never regretted it, because my life will always belong to the lady.

At this time, a gust of wind blows and blows off the petals in the back garden. Chen Man wraps up the clothes slightly, looks at the sky, and sighs: "The wind is blowing, let's go back."

On the other side, when Li Wenyu returned to Gu Yuanshan's home, he saw Aman planting something in the yard, and Gu Yuanshan was pointing her at the side. When Li Wenyu entered the door, Aman knew that he had returned, and hurriedly put down things, and then greeted them together with Gu Yuanshan.

Gu Yuanshan first dragged Li Wenyu up and down, left, right, left, right, and right to look carefully. After seeing that there were no wounds on his body, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked him: "Where did that Chen Zhizhao find you?" What's the matter? He took you away with such great fanfare, and then sent you back unscathed, what kind of medicine is he selling in this gourd?"

On the surface, Ah Man didn't care about it, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then he said: "What's the matter with this kid? I see his face is flushed, and his heart is sprouting. I'm afraid the red luan star has moved .”

Li Wenyu smiled lightly, then sat down at the stone table, picked up the teapot next to the stone table, poured himself a glass of water, and waited until the tea entered his throat, he said, "What Ah Man said is exactly what Chen Zhizhao will be in the city tomorrow." In addition, there are three checkpoints, and those who pass through the three checkpoints can marry her daughter Chen Man. He means that I will go there tomorrow, and I will be the first among them to marry his daughter."

Ah Man spit out a sip of tea, she stood up suddenly, pointed at Li Wenyu with one hand on her hips and said, "Is it possible that you really want to marry that ill Miss Chen, if your brother finds out He came directly from Kyoto to seal it!"

"This is just a stopgap measure. If I don't marry Chen Man and gain Chen Zhizhao's trust, how will I know what kind of medicine is sold in Chen Zhizhao's old fox gourd, and the cave in Luofenggu? I always feel that I can't get away from Chen Zhizhao. What's the matter?" Li Wenyu opened the fan with a snap, and quickly fanned it for Ah Man, telling her to cool down.

"However, how can Chen Zhizhao guarantee that you will stand out among the three checkpoints? Could it be that he can predict whether you will succeed?" Gu Yuanshan sat aside and asked the question in his heart.

"You can't say for sure, everything depends on tomorrow." Li Wenyu waved his fan, laughing more and more unpredictable.
