Oiran son

Beijing, Dali Temple

"My lord, you've lost weight, don't you eat well? I've obviously taken care of it, but they took my money, but they didn't do anything!"

Guan Huilan looked at Ouyang Xiujie with a distressed expression, thinking that she had spent so much money to manage it, but in the end the jailers didn't take good care of him, she couldn't help being angry and distressed.

"No! They have already taken good care of me. These quilts have been replaced with clean ones for me. The prison cell before was much worse than the current environment. However, you'd better not waste your money, it's wasted on me anyway. "Ouyang Xiujie reached out and stroked Xiaguan Huilan, his eyes were rare and gentle.

"Master, don't say that. Although your crime is serious, until now the Holy Majesty has not let anyone convict you, which proves that he also thinks you are wronged. Just wait for Chen'er to come back and find evidence to prove your innocence. It's just that I don't know when Chen'er will come back, it would be great if he could come back sooner..."

"No! He can't come back, you must find a way to inform him so that he doesn't come back."

"Master, I know that you are worried that you will hurt him, but you are his father. Does he know that you will stand by when you have something to do? Besides, he is a famous person in front of the Holy Majesty. As long as he speaks a few words of kindness for you in front of the Holy Majesty, the Majesty will definitely will let you go."

"Confused!" Ouyang Xiujie couldn't help scolding, "If he comes back, he's going to throw himself into a trap. Not only can't he save me, but he'll get himself involved. In short, you must inform him so that he doesn't come back. do you know?"

"I don't understand, I don't know." Guan Huilan shook her head with a puzzled expression.

"I only know that if he comes back, you will be able to save the master. If he doesn't come back, our Ouyang family will be ruined! You want to keep him, but have you ever thought that if you are convicted of a crime, even if you don't return to Beijing, his You can't escape either. Master, tell me frankly, what is the reason why you don't let him come back?"

Ouyang Xiujie's lips parted, but he couldn't say anything.

He couldn't tell, the reason why he was imprisoned was because he was tired by Ouyang Chen, because the prince and Zhu Xu wanted to deal with Ouyang Chen, so they decided to attack him.

Speaking these words will not help the matter at all, but will only make Guan Huilan resent Ouyang Chen.

"Forget it, even if I tell him not to come back, I'm afraid he will come back as soon as he finds out that I have something to do. If he comes back, you can tell him for me. I was wrong before, and he was right. Unfortunately, I know it's too late."

Guan Huilan didn't understand the mystery behind Ouyang Xiujie's words, but she obediently wrote down his words and planned to pass them on to Ouyang Chen in the future.

Half an hour later, after walking out of the gate of Dali Temple, Guan Huilan was picked up by a carriage.

"What did he say to you?"

"He first asked me to tell Ouyang Chen not to return to Beijing, and later, he asked me to tell him that he was wrong..."

The people in the carriage listened quietly to Guan Huilan's story about meeting Ouyang Xiujie in prison.

"That's all." After finishing what she wanted to say, Guan Huilan anxiously looked at the person sitting opposite, and asked cautiously.

"My lord, I have done everything you asked me to do. I don't know when the child can go home?"

"Do one more thing for this king, and if you do it well, your son can come back."

Chongzhou.

The full moon was in the sky, Ouyang Chen was sitting on the roof, looking up at the bright moon, drinking dull wine.

Suddenly, a figure came to the yard and waved to Ouyang Chen on the roof.

"General Ouyang, is it too boring to drink alone, why don't I let me drink with you."

Hearing this, Ouyang Chen looked down.

I saw Lou Yanming holding a jug of wine in one hand, looking up at him with a smile.Shaking the empty wine bottle in his hand, he jumped down beside Lou Yanming, grabbed Lou Yanming's collar with one hand, kicked his feet, and then returned to the seat where he was sitting just now. Lou Yanming.

"General Ouyang, you are really skilled, but next time you do this again, please say hello to Zhengxia in advance."

Ouyang Chen suddenly lifted his collar and jumped to the roof, Lou Yanming turned pale with fright.

"I'm sorry." Ouyang Chen said apologetic words, but the movements of his hands were not vague at all, he reached out and took the pot of wine from Lou Yanming's hand, raised his head and drank it.

Seeing that Ouyang Chen drank up the pot of wine he brought in two or three gulps without leaving him a drop, the corner of Lou Yanming's mouth twitched.

"Good wine." Ouyang Chen proudly wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, and said, "It's just that there is too little wine in a pot, I finished it in a few sips."

"This wine is King Ning's treasure. If you like it, I will ask King Ning for some more." Lou Yanming said so, but his body sat still, and he heard Ouyang Chen say.

"It's better not to bother Mr. Lou, King Ning should have fallen asleep at this time, so don't bother him."

"Alright then." Lou Yanming stroked his beard and opened the topic.

"When does General Ouyang plan to leave for Beijing?"

"If possible, the sooner the better, it's just..." Having said this, Ouyang Chen's face was stained with a trace of sadness.

"It's just that you haven't found Mr. Luo for a day, so you can't stay here and return to Beijing?" Lou Yanming spoke for him.

"Mr. Lou, do you feel that I am a little unfilial? My father is in prison now, but I couldn't rush back immediately." Ouyang Chen subconsciously wanted to lift the jug, only to realize that the wine in it had already been drunk.

Lou Yanming shook his head, "General Ouyang is a person who values ​​love and righteousness. Now that Mr. Luo's life or death is uncertain, it's only natural for you to stay and look for him. Besides, I think it's a good thing if you don't rush back to the capital immediately. .”

Ouyang Chen's eyes flashed, and he clasped his hands together.

"Please enlighten me, sir."

"Old General Ouyang was imprisoned because he was reported to be traitorous. However, according to Shui Ruochen's confession, Emperor Jing has only imprisoned him so far, but convicted him, or asked Dali Temple to interrogate the case. General Ouyang thinks why is this so? ?”

Of course it is because the emperor is my biological father, if the adoptive father is convicted, then his adopted son will also be implicated.

It's just that Ouyang Chen couldn't easily express these words, so he had no choice but to keep silent.

"There is one thing, I hope General Ouyang can help me explain my doubts." Lou Yanming's wise eyes locked on Ouyang Chen's face, as if he wanted to see his true thoughts from his expression.

"Please say."

"As far as I know, you and King Ming used to be in a master-servant relationship. You are also responsible for his success today. I don't know what happened to make you turn against each other and die forever?"

Ouyang Chen lowered his eyes, and after a long time, he heard his voice.

"The reason why I became strangers to him now is probably because of Brother Yun. The real reason is probably because I found out that he is not a wise gentleman, and he can't tolerate me."

Why did he turn against Zhu Xu? Ouyang Chen had thought about it for a long time.

As he said, the reason why the two of them would tear their faces apart was because of Luo Yun.

Zhu Xu had unruly plans for Luo Yun. In order to get Luo Yun, he did not hesitate to use despicable means to separate them, causing them to almost miss each other.

This revenge is not repaid, not a gentleman!
