In the morning, Chu Yue was woken up by a loud noise, she stretched out her hand to touch the forehead of the person beside her, and found that the fever had subsided by most, so she calmed down and went out to check the situation.
The noise seemed to be coming from the imperial tomb, Chu Yue walked a few steps towards the imperial tomb, and suddenly stood still, her face turned pale.I saw a mess at the entrance, full of traces of the fire, and a hole was dug out at the back of the imperial mausoleum, and half of the wall had turned black.
The Imperial Tomb is on fire?Last night...they didn't notice this...
"Young Master Huai, the imperial mausoleum caught fire last night. As the mausoleum guard, do you know who did it?" A general who came to check asked.It was only then that Chu Yue realized that Yu Wenhuai had stood behind her at some point, looking at Huang Ling with a complicated expression, and said coldly, "I don't know."
"As the guard of the imperial mausoleum, this is your dereliction of duty, Mr. Huai. The emperor sent his ministers to take you back to Beijing for interrogation. Sorry for offending me." The man took a step forward and made a bending motion, "Mr. Huai ,please."
The corner of Yu Wenhuai's mouth twitched slightly, he gave the man a mocking look, and walked proudly into the carriage.Chu Yue thought to herself, as expected of a young master, he is always so arrogant.This kind of temperament, that is, in the young master, makes her not feel disgusted, but has a kind of admiration.
She didn't know what was waiting for them. Although they had returned to the capital this time, she had no way of guessing what the young master would face.
It was only after returning to the capital that I gradually realized how many things had happened during this period.The most important one was the death of Zhao Xifeng, the third son of the Zhao family.Chu Yue also had acquaintance with Mr. Zhao several times. She had met several times when she delivered news to the Zhao family. She only remembered that he was a very flamboyant, domineering, cruel person, um...he had some similarities with Yu Wenhuai. , but not exactly the same.
By the time they returned, the case had been settled.The one who killed Zhao Xifeng was the son of the Wei family, Wei Shuyou.A spiral arrow belonging to Wei Shuyou was found on Zhao Xifeng's body. It is said that Wei Shuyou stole Yan Xun's jade plaque and placed it next to Zhao Xifeng's body in order to blame Yan Xun.In order to keep the rest of the family, Wei Guang, the patriarch of the Wei family, killed his own son with his own hands in the court hall.
But regarding this matter, Chu Yue was very skeptical, maybe Zhao Xifeng was killed by Yan Xun, because no matter how stupid Wei Shuyou was, he wouldn't leave his exclusive spiral arrow there.But no matter what the facts are, it has nothing to do with them.For Yu Wenhuai, Wei Shuyou was nothing more than a chess piece, but this chess piece often fell off the chain at critical moments, so it was just right to die.
The one who really made Yu Wenhuai fearful was his fourth brother, Yu Wenyue.Yu Wenyue was known to everyone in the capital recently, and he even found out about Zhao Xifeng.Yu Wenyue had a personal relationship with Yan Xun, even if it was Yan Xun's fault, maybe he would cover him up.And this time he was investigated for the fire in the imperial tomb, Yu Wenyue probably would not let this opportunity pass.
Yu Wenhuai found a scapegoat, but fortunately he saved his life, but he was demoted three levels in a row.And Chu Yue had no time to take care of it, because the day after she returned to the capital, she was secretly summoned by the Zhao family.
The life in the Imperial Mausoleum was too comfortable, Chu Yue hadn't thought for a long time that she was still Zhao Jia'an's eyeliner next to Yu Wenhuai, or in other words, she dared not forget this fact for a moment, but she just didn't want to face it.Now that he has returned to the capital, everything should start again.
At this moment, she was standing in front of the head of the Zhao family.Although it was not the first time, she had delivered news to the Zhao family countless times, but this time she was extremely nervous.Is it because she cared about Yu Wenhuai, didn't want to betray him, and was helpless because of the Zhao family's persecution of her?Her heart was confused, and her palms were gradually sweating.I only heard the other party ask her in an emotionless voice: "Recently you have been staying with Yu Wenhuai, I thought you forgot your identity."
"I dare not forget." Chu Yue bowed her head and replied respectfully.
"That's the best, don't forget, your whole family is in my hands." The Patriarch of the Zhao family smiled indifferently, and raised his hand to signal the people around him to back down. Immediately, only Chu Yue was left in the room. Facing him: "Since I'm back, I have a new task for you."
"Collect evidence of Yu Wenhuai's collusion with the big beam spies."
Chu Yue was startled when she heard the words, and her face turned pale instantly.She never knew about Yu Wenhuai's affair with the spy.I thought it was just his grandfather, but I never thought that there were so many things she didn't know.So how much does the Zhao family know?Once this matter is brought to light, it will be a capital offense. Why did Yu Wenhuai take such a big risk to cooperate with the Liang spy?
"Why, am I surprised that your master still does such a thing?" Patriarch Zhao said indifferently, "Yu Wenhuai is unfathomable. When you are by his side, you must not show your flaws. Otherwise... your family's lives will be lost."
Again, the cold and cruel threat.Chu Yue swallowed the disgust in her heart, and tried her best to make her gaze not so disgusting: "Your maidservant will be careful."
"Okay, step back." The other party didn't even look at her, and waved her to leave.
Back at Hongshan Courtyard, Chu Yue didn't see Yu Wenhuai, but Yu Wenyue. She didn't know what he was doing here.As the chief maid of the Hongshan Courtyard, she still went forward and asked respectfully, "Master Yue, what's the matter here?"
The young man in white clothes gave her a faint look: "I'm looking for brother, since he's not here, I'll come another day."
"Master Huai will be back in a while, if you have something to do, you can wait here." Chu Yue said.Yu Wenyue and Yu Wenhuai have always been at odds with each other, and recently the conflict has escalated, and they don't even bother to show face.Yu Wenyue came here at this time, maybe she would add trouble to Yu Wenhuai again.
Hearing this, Yu Wenyue looked at her seriously: "You are my brother's personal maid, right? He thinks highly of you. You know, I have always been at odds with him. Now that you are respectful on the surface, you must be very unwelcoming in your heart. Me, right?"
Chu Yue was puzzled as to what Yu Wenyue meant by this, although...it was true.She thought for a while, then smiled and said, "What did Mr. Yue say, Chu Yue just thought, after all, you and Mr. Huai are blood brothers, and if he committed the crime of copying and beheading the whole family, you would not be able to get rid of it, would you? "
Yu Wenyue smiled faintly: "You are very courageous, you know, you are very similar to a person. That person is my maid - her name is Chu Qiao."
Chu Qiao...the name...
"Her name is Chu Qiao, your name is Chu Yue, do you think it's a coincidence?" Yu Wenyue said meaningfully, then turned and left, leaving Chu Yue in the same place full of doubts.
It's just the same surname. What does Yu Wenyue mean by saying this?
