Small green grass falling from the sky

【Second brother once wanted to kill him】

Although he was at a loss at first, after playing around for a while, Chu Jing clearly affirmed that this proud and delicate little green grass was undoubtedly his daughter-in-law.

Although his appearance and height have changed, his arrogant and intelligent personality has not changed at all.His Royal Highness picked up his daughter-in-law, still so familiar and... shameless.

When the news of the emperor's decision to send troops to the north reached Baihua Lane, Chu Jing was holding the little green grass to take advantage.

After hearing Mo Zhu's report, his complexion was not very good.

——Historically, after the defeat of the Liao Dynasty, Emperor Ren fell ill and died of illness.Afterwards, Zhao Yi ascended the throne, ruled out dissidents, washed the court with blood, strengthened the imperial power, and increased taxes. Great Chu ushered in the darkest period.

In the past, from the perspective of future generations, Chu Jing felt angry and regretful at most.Ever since Jinshang became his benefactor and witnessed Zhao Yi's incompetence and hypocrisy with his own eyes, he could no longer be a calm bystander.

Chu Jing made a lot of preparations for this, and talked about it with Jin Shang many times on the sidelines. However, he knew in his heart that the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun were a common knot in the hearts of all the kings of Great Chu.

Now that he has such a good excuse, Jinshang will naturally not give up.

History continues as it should be... Chu Jing frowned involuntarily.

Green leaves with tiny thorns came around and wrapped around his hand, the round ears tilted and said softly: "Don't worry..."

Chu Jing hugged the little one to his chest, kissed it, and showed a relaxed smile.

Do your best, listen to destiny!

He took the initiative to enter the palace and handed over the map of Beidi that had been secretly searched all these years to the emperor.

For a moment, Chu Jing even wanted to lead the troops himself, but before he could speak, the emperor changed the subject.

The emperor looked at the more calm and thoughtful adoptive son in front of him, and secretly sighed.

——Zhao Yi is now in Beidi, he must keep Chu Jing in the capital, if he has an emergency...

Chu Jing didn't know what the emperor was thinking, but just helped him dispatch troops and deliver rations as much as possible.

Winter was approaching, and the northern region was cold. Most of the soldiers in the Central Plains would not accept the water and soil when they went outside the customs. He asked the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry to prepare enough food, grass and winter clothes in advance to ensure the safety of food and clothing as much as possible.

However, Chu Jing never expected that the problem would really lie in the food.

At the beginning of October, 30 troops set off from Bianjing and traveled all the way, and it took half a month before they all arrived at Zhending Mansion.

In mid-October, the two armies fought, the Chu army won the first battle, and the general of the Liao army was killed, and the dragon's heart was happy.

At the end of October, a wounded soldier rushed back to the capital with a desperate attempt to die. Then there was news that the Chu army had run out of food and grass, and the soldiers were hungry and weak, unable to meet the enemy.

"The food stored in the second warehouse in Shuncheng and Fuguo has all gone northward, enough for 60 troops to feed for a whole year, why is there a shortage of food and grass?!"

Chu Jing had the same question as the emperor. He personally watched the shipment of the grain stored in the two granaries, and there was no possibility of any problems.

The military situation was urgent, and the emperor had no time to investigate the responsibility, so he had to quickly order to temporarily recruit all the places along the way, and sent Zhong Shuling to personally escort them, and investigate the matter of grain and grass by the way.

At that time, Su Li turned into a little green grass again, and he gave the dew that had formed to Chu Jing, hoping to be of help.

I don't know how Chu Jing works, but the next day, Li Ru'an, Zhongshu's servant, took a small jade pot with Zhongshuling to the north.

Half a month later, Zhong Shuling returned to Beijing, and at the same time brought back a person——Zhao Yi, who had voluntarily requested to go to Zhending to serve as the supervisor of the army two months ago.

Zhao Yi was imprisoned in the prison car, and he described it as a mess. All the people in the city rushed to the street to watch the excitement, and the three children of the Su family were no exception.

Xiao Hei excitedly pulled Chu Gua Gua, Su Xiaohu followed behind with a sullen face, and the three young gentlemen walked back and forth among the crowd relying on their small stature.

Su Li was worried and hurriedly followed.

Chu Jing was also dressed in casual clothes, step by step to protect his wife and children behind him.

Xiao Hei ran too fast and bumped into someone accidentally. He rubbed his nose and was about to apologize when he froze.

"Uncle?" Hanhan's voice was lost in the crowd of people.

The other party heard him, and only quickly glanced at him, turned around and left.

Little Heiyan quickly grabbed his sleeve, and raised his voice, "Uncle! You are uncle!"

"No, you've got the wrong person." The man wore a silver mask and his voice was hoarse.

He tried to break Xiao Hei's hand away, but Xiao Hei frowned and did not let go, his black eyes were filled with moisture, "Uncle, don't go, Xiao Hei misses you..."

The man paused, and a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, Su Li and Chu Jing arrived one after another.

The moment he saw the man, Su Li was stunned for a moment.

Chu Jing quickly came to his senses and clamped his shoulders, "Are you here to save Zhao Yi?"

The man's face was covered by a mask, and his expression could not be seen clearly. His eyes quickly swept across Su Li and Su Xiaohu.

This person gave Su Li an inexplicable sense of familiarity, reminding him of Xiao Hei's title just now...

Su Li pinched his fingers and lifted his mask off guard.

A pale, handsome face is directly reflected in the eyes, slanted eyebrows, slightly raised peach eyes, straight nose bridge, thin lips...

At that moment, Su Li seemed to be caught breathing, and the mask in his hand fell to the ground.

He had already prepared himself mentally. He thought that what he saw would be Tang Youran, but it wasn't...it wasn't Tang Youran.

Unprepared to be exposed in front of everyone, the man was obviously unprepared, shock, annoyance, and relief flashed in his eyes, except for anger.

He took the opportunity to break free from Chu Jing's grip, grabbed the mask, turned and left.

Su Li seemed to have pressed the power button, rushed forward and hugged him tightly, "No! Don't leave!"

The man struggled, couldn't bear to hurt him, closed his reddish eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "Xiao Li, let go..."

Hearing this extremely familiar title, Su Li's throat seemed to be blocked by a ball of wet cotton, unable to make a sound, he just hugged him tightly and shook his head vigorously.

The small accident here gradually attracted people's attention. Chu Jing made a gesture, and the hidden guards quickly appeared from all directions, protecting several people from the crowd.

The masked man was dragged by Su Li, dragged by Xiao Hei, and stared at by the hidden guards, so he had no choice but to leave with them sensibly.

***

In the small courtyard of the Su family, in the main room.

Su Li stared into the man's eyes, opened and closed his lips, and finally called out the long-awaited title, "Second Brother..."

Yes, this pale man with eyes full of melancholy and bitterness is the second son of the Su family, Su Jue, who was once wanton, unrestrained and suave.

Compared with Su Li's excitement, the man seemed much calmer. He looked at Su Li's characteristic peach eyes of the Su family, and a trace of surprise flashed across his face, "Have you seen me?"

Su Li was startled, and then realized that the second brother didn't know about his "borrowing the dead body back to life".

He pursed his lips and looked at Chu Jing for help.

Chu Jing held his hand and looked at Su Jue with a bit of sharp eyes.

He still had doubts about Su Jue's identity, "Why did you work for Zhao Yi? What's the relationship with Tang Youran?"

Su Jue looked at Xiao Hei, then at Su Xiaohu, pursed his lips, and said nothing.

Xiao Hei clings tightly to his side, eyes full of attachment.

A little pale pink flower spirit flew in from outside the door, first rubbed against Su Li's face, then looked at Su Jue suspiciously, and finally landed on his shoulder with peace of mind.

Su Jue seemed to sense something, and looked in its direction.

Seeing this scene, Su Li's mind flashed, and an answer blurted out, "Are you too...Tang Youran?"

Su Jue knew he couldn't hide it, so he simply nodded.

A complex emotion mixed with tension and disappointment emerged from the bottom of Su Li's heart. With the last trace of expectation, he asked softly but hesitantly: "Then you...are you...second brother?"

Su Jue looked at him, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes, "You saw me the day the flower boat caught fire, right?"

Su Li was stunned for a moment, and asked back, "You saved me?"

Su Jue raised his eyebrows and asked curiously, "You haven't seen me before, how could you recognize me as your 'second brother' at a glance?"

Only then did Su Li realize what he had exposed, and he bit his lip angrily.

Su Jue obviously didn't intend to pursue it, but raised his eyes relaxedly, and chuckled, "Even this biting problem is the same..."

Chu Jing frowned, and asked a question that had been buried in his heart for a long time, "The evidence for the first prosecution was given to me secretly by you, right?"

Su Jue hooked her lips, and looked at him with peach blossom eyes that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, "Not bad."

Hearing this, Su Li felt like falling into an ice cellar - the evidence was given by the second brother? !

Chu Jing looked at his partner's expression, with obvious anger on his face, "Did you consider your third brother when you did that?"

Both of them knew that this "third younger brother" was not referring to the Su Li in front of them, but the person who was sent to prison with the fake Su Liang and was sentenced to be beheaded.

Su Jue changed his posture, and his tone was somewhat cold, "His Royal Highness has made arrangements, hasn't he?"

"What about you? Do you just want to watch him die?"

"If His Royal Highness can't do it, what can I, an anonymous sinner, do?" Su Jue said lightly, his lowered eyelids concealing his true emotions.

Chu Jing frowned slightly, "I did plead with the officials to spare his life, but he doesn't want to, he doesn't want to live alone."

Chu Jing looked straight at Su Jue, with many meanings in his words.

Su Jue, who really "live alone", snorted lightly, as if he was not hurt by his words.

Su Li was stunned. He suddenly remembered that when he was imprisoned just now, there was indeed a person who told him that the officials intended to let him go, and changed the sentence from beheading to exile.

At that time, Su Li was disheartened and refused without thinking. At that time, he only thought about dying with his family.

He didn't expect that it was Chu Jing who begged for him.

Su Li turned his head to look at the man beside him, his hands trembling slightly.

Chu Jing squeezed his hand comfortingly, spread his arms, and gave him a warm embrace.

Su Li closed his eyes, and the fine pain spread in his heart like a needle prick - the second brother knew about the fake Su Liang's conspiracy, but he didn't tell him a word, and even, even once wanted to put him to death.

Yes, he did, that Su Li really died.

He opened his eyes, his eyes were wet and red, "Having been together day and night for more than ten years, can you bear it?"

"Why can't I bear it?" Su Jue seemed to have been touched, and his expression was no longer as calm and clear as before. "He took my brother's position, enjoying the glory and wealth that should belong to my brother, but facing him. That thief bowed his head and paid his ears, and admired him very much-why can't I bear it?!"

Su Li's icy heart shrank tightly, he never thought that the second elder brother had such thoughts in his heart.

Chu Jing couldn't bear to see the little friend showing such a sad and lonely expression, so he hugged him tightly and said, "Since you hate him so much, why do you still try to save him?"

Su Jue's face froze, and a look of embarrassment flashed in his eyes.

Su Li was stunned, and his cold heart warmed up inch by inch—the second brother tried to save him?
