Chapter 231: The past and the truth

The Office of the Minister of Civil Affairs.

As soon as Chu Chu came out of confinement, she was called back by Chu Liyan. The two came to the study, closed the door and talked.

Chu Liyan asked seriously: "Chu Chu, my father wants to ask you, there is something wrong with Prince Haichuan recently. What does he want to do?"

During this period, it was rumored that Mo Ruxue committed suicide by drowning, and Xiao Yongyan also fell off a cliff and died in order to find her, leaving no trace of his body.

The concubine couldn't bear the blow and couldn't bear to fall ill.

Xiao Yongyan had no interest in government affairs. While he was busy taking care of the concubine, he sent people to look for King Luo everywhere.

Xiao Yongyan has not gone to court for five or six days, and people in the court hall are panicking.

There are even more outrageous rumors, saying that Xiao Yongyan relied entirely on Xiao Yonghan to handle government affairs during the past few months in office. As soon as Xiao Yonghan left, Xiao Yongyan became intimidated and could not cope with it at all.

That's why he tried his best to find Xiao Yonghan. If Xiao Yonghan didn't come back, the Yan Kingdom would probably be doomed.

Chu Liyan dismissed these rumors and gave those gossips a hard blow in the court today!

Unexpectedly, someone said that many of those rumors came from the royal family, and even Prince Haichuan did not deny it.

Chu Chu picked up the tea cup and sat elegantly on the chair, smiling faintly: "What is father anxious about? There is nothing wrong with the county prince. My daughter thinks there is nothing abnormal about him."

"On the contrary, my father is a little unfounded. As long as the ministers do their duty well, the sky of the Yan Kingdom will not fall."

"Father, it is better for you to be wise and protect yourself. Say less and do less, and be a bystander. After all, the throne of the Xiao family is still in the hands of the Xiao family. Let's not get involved in their internal affairs."

"If you're not careful, you may be in danger! Isn't the lesson from my father's exile enough?"

Chu Liyan said in disbelief: "Chu Chu, what are you talking about? Loyalty to the emperor and patriotism is our duty as ministers. I will never tolerate those traitors and traitors!"

When did the daughter he had taught so carefully since childhood become like this?

Chu Chu covered her lips and chuckled: "Haha, loyal to the emperor and patriotic? You were loyal to the emperor and patriotic when you exposed Mo Xu, but what happened? Our Chu family was almost executed by the whole family!"

"If the cunning rabbit dies and the lackey is cooked, if the Yan Kingdom is going to change, no one can stop it. Why doesn't father want to be more open? What has he done to you these years when you have devoted yourself to being the king?"

"I sent you to exile on an unfounded charge, and then brought you back out of nowhere, and made you extremely grateful."

"Shut up!" Chu Liyan was so angry that he slammed the table: "Where did you learn these rebellious words?"

"Our Chu family has been loyal and loyal for generations. Even if the emperor wants me to die, I will never complain!"

"Chu Chu, you really disappoint your father!"

Although Chu Liyan was very angry, Chu Chu was not afraid of him at all.

She smiled and said, "My father is so loyal and stubborn, why do you want all your brothers to accompany you? By the way, there are also my little nephews and nieces, how can my father also bear it?"

"According to my daughter's advice, my father just needs to wait and see and don't do anything. Isn't this considered disloyal?"

"The fog will eventually clear, and no matter who is in that position in the end, this is the wisest thing to do."

Chu Liyan looked at Chu Chu steadily, as if he had just met her today. Is this still his smart and polite daughter?

When Xiao Yonghan said that Chu Chu had changed, he was quite unconvinced at the time and mocked Xiao Yonghan more, saying that Xiao Yonghan had been fascinated by Mo Ruxue and had changed his mind.

It turns out that the changed person is really Chu Chu, and Chu Chu's change is hard for him to accept.

Chu Liyan didn't know why, but suddenly thought of Zhang Xinnian.

If what Xiao Yonghan said is true, is there something hidden about what happened to Zhang in the past?

"How did Zhang Xi Nian die? Chu Chu, tell the truth to your father."

Hearing Chu Liyan's question, Chu Chu's hand holding the tea cup paused, her eyes were confused, and she fell into memories: "Zhang Xi Nian? Brother Xi Nian... I almost forgot what he looked like."

"I remembered, haha, I have a simple mind but strong limbs. In order to avoid being killed by him, I killed him."

Chu Chu said it lightly, for her, killing someone was as easy as squeezing an ant to death.

"Although the people were killed by me, these were all caused by that bitch Mo Ruxue!"

"If I don't kill him, I will be the one who dies. You can't blame me for that. You can only blame him for being too stupid. He fails to accomplish anything but fails!"

"The two assassinations he planned failed, and in the end they were set up by Mo Ruxue. If I didn't kill him, Mo Ruxue wouldn't have spared him."

Chu Liyan looked sad, beat his feet and chest, and slumped on the chair helplessly: "What an injustice! It turns out that what King Luo said is true."

"I grew up with you, how could you bear to do something like this?"

"Even if he is captured by Mo Ruxue and handed over to the emperor to be killed, it would be better than you killing him. You are the person he cares about most!"

"He assassinated the emperor, King Luo and Princess Luo. He deserves to be captured and executed. Anyone can kill him, but you can't."

"You know better than anyone how I treated you in the past. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"

Chu Liyan was in great pain, and his friend's instructions before his death were still vivid in his mind, but he still betrayed his trust in the end.

Throughout his life, he has been devoted to love and trust, loyal to his emperor and his country. The only wrong thing he did was to perjury himself in Dali Temple for Chu Chu.

There was no trace of sadness on Chu Chu's face, and she still looked calm and calm: "I'm already dead, what else can I do? My daughter became what she is today because of Mo Ruxue, but it's a pity that I haven't even had time to take revenge.

She actually died?"

"But I heard that she was heartbroken by King Luo and committed suicide by drowning. She really deserved it!"

"The marriage you snatched will not be happy after all. If it weren't for her, Xiao Yonghan and I would have lived happily together. Where would there be all these things?"

"So my father can blame the Mo family for my brother's debt in the past. Mo Ruxue is dead, but the Mo family is still here. Have you forgotten how they harmed you in the first place?"

Chu Chu immediately looked at Chu Chu with disdain: "If Mo Xu harbors evil intentions, the emperor will decide it himself, why do I need to intervene?"

"If I also have the intention of framing someone, what's the difference between me and Mo Xu?"

"The people of the Mo family have been under house arrest for almost a month now. Their glory is gone. There is no need for me to add insult to injury."

"Papa" applause sounded! Chu Chu smiled sarcastically.

"Only a scholar like my father would discuss the ways of a gentleman with a villain. Since the conversation is not congenial, my daughter will leave."

"Father, just wait and see how your daughter makes everyone in the Mo family suffer retribution one by one!"

Chu Chu stood up and saluted Chu Liyan, then turned around and walked out.

When he reached the door, he stopped and turned around and said, "Father, my daughter suggests that for the sake of the future of your brothers and the glory of the Chu family, you'd better pretend to be sick and rest at home for a while!"

After saying that, he left, leaving only Chu Liyan's helpless sigh and regret.

How could a good daughter become like this?
