Carefully handing the letter to Chu Zhantian, the old housekeeper was a little nervous.
Chu Zhantian opened the letter and looked pale after just reading two lines of words.
"Master, is it..." the old housekeeper spoke in a low voice, his voice trembling.
Chu Zhantian closed the letter and sighed quietly, "After so many years of planning, I just wanted to keep Qing'er, but now it seems..." Chu Zhantian handed the letter to the old housekeeper, "Qing'er's
I’m afraid my identity will be revealed!”
The old housekeeper glanced at the letter, and the hand holding the letter trembled. He quickly said: "Master, you have to plan in advance, otherwise..."
Before the old housekeeper finished speaking, he heard a servant reporting from the right: "Master, someone from the palace has come, saying they have brought an imperial edict!"
Chu Zhantian's eyes darkened and he said coldly: "It came so fast!"
The old housekeeper quickly said: "Master, it's better to hide, at least you can have a plan!"
Chu Zhantian sneered: "If there is a plan and this matter can be solved, I would have planned it many years ago, why would I have to wait so long? Your Majesty is wise and will not do it without definite evidence..."
"I'll send someone to arrest the people in the palace first. Master, no matter what, you have to make plans first!" The old housekeeper said, and hurried out of the study. He sent someone to call Chu Shaozheng to come, and he went first.
hall.
In the hall, the person next to Xiao Fuzi who came to deliver the order was Xiao Yuanzi. He was drinking tea leisurely. When he saw the old housekeeper coming out, he asked: "Butler Chu, where is Prince Chu? Why haven't you come out to receive the order?"
Our emperor is waiting for him in the palace!"
"It turns out to be Eunuch Yuan, how about we see you in a few days?" The old housekeeper hurriedly greeted him with a smile, hugged his fists, and chatted warmly.
"It's all good thanks to Prince Chu's blessings!" Xiao Yuanzi also knew that the eunuchs in the palace had received a lot of benefits from Prince Chu's house, especially since he followed Xiao Fuzi and often got good things. The emperor couldn't give them that much.
Many, of course, were "tributes" from outside. When he came, Xiao Fuzi also told him to be polite to the people in the Chu Palace. He naturally understood what he meant, so he naturally became a lot more friendly in his words.
The old housekeeper smiled, and using his side to block the situation, he quickly gave the round father-in-law something.
Xiao Yuanzi calmly squeezed the thickness of the stack of banknotes in his sleeve. Naturally, he was pleasantly surprised, and with a smile on his face, he said, "Why is the old housekeeper so polite?"
Seeing him like this, the old housekeeper felt relieved and said, "To be honest with Eunuch Yuan, we also have something to trouble Eunuch Yuan. The master is not at home right now, so we may have to trouble Eunuch Yuan to wait!"
When Xiao Yuanzi heard this, he was a little embarrassed. This was an urgent call. Although he didn't know what was going on, the emperor was still waiting in the palace. No one could afford to delay this matter. He quickly took out the banknote from his sleeve.
Then he stuffed it back into the hands of the old housekeeper and said, "Old housekeeper, it's not that the Za family doesn't want to give the King of Chu's house this honor, it's just because of this urgent call. The emperor is waiting, we can't delay! Since the King of Chu is not at home, where is he?"
Let’s go find him quickly and summon him into the palace as soon as possible!”
The old housekeeper put the banknote back into Xiao Yuanzi's hand and said: "Eunuch Yuan, of course we know the stakes here and have sent people to look for it. You can rest first and drink two cups of tea. The time is about the same."
Got it!"
Eunuch Yuan hesitated slightly and then said: "Old housekeeper, we have agreed that we only have time for two cups of tea, so we can't waste it any longer!"
The old housekeeper nodded quickly, and quickly asked someone to serve him good tea and snacks. He sat with her and said nice things, but his heart was a mess of anxiety.
In the study, Chu Zhantian quickly wrote two letters. One was pressed under the book, and the other was handed to Chu Shaozheng. He whispered: "You quickly give this letter to the young master. Remember, you must hand it in person."
Give it to him, do you understand?"
Chu Shaozheng seemed a little hesitant, but still took the letter and nodded: "Yes!"
Chu Zhantian hesitated for a moment and then said: "Shaozheng, you and Huan'er grew up together, and I treat you as if I were my own son. You two brothers must unite to protect this family!"
Chu Shaozheng was stunned and asked in a low voice: "Master, did something happen?"
Chu Zhantian sighed, waved his hands and said, "Go quickly!"
Chu Shaozheng hesitated slightly, but finally turned around and left.
Chu Zhantian was stunned for a while, then turned around and opened the secret door of the study, entered inside, and burned all the objects that might be related to Chu Yiqing's life experience.
In the red firelight, Chu Zhantian's dark eyes were reflected, and what was reflected in his mind were old events from more than twenty years ago.
He was young and energetic, determined to make a career, and after relying on his Zheng family background to get started, at the age of thirty, he had already become a man of great influence in the world, high-spirited and high-spirited.
Hearing that Haiying Island between Luo Kingdom and Li Kingdom contained treasures left by Shura Kingdom, that year he and his Jianghu colleagues boarded a ship to Haiying Island.
Haiying Island is a mysterious island. If there is no one who is familiar with the terrain to guide the way, it is impossible for them to get close. It is ridiculous that Chu Zhan at that time was not afraid of anything. He was eager to raise a batch of money to achieve his success in the world and the court.
status.
Their ship was shot to pieces by pirate ships before they even got close to Haiying Island. Relying on his martial arts skills, he hugged a piece of wood and floated on the sea for two days and two nights, and miraculously landed on Haiying Island.
Hailuosha was the first and only person he met on Haiying Island, because he was completely attracted by her beauty. He had never seen such a beautiful woman, white and shining like satin.
With her shiny skin, slender waist, thick floor-length black hair, exquisite body and beautiful face, Hai Luosha was like a fairy. With just a glance, she completely captured him!
But such a beautiful fairy had her eyebrows furrowed. She looked at the strange man in front of her and suddenly asked: "Are you from outside the island?"
Chu Zhantian nodded. At that moment, he even forgot that he was on the dangerous Haiying Island.
"Can you take me away?" The goblin suddenly stretched out her beautiful and slender arms to him, with a pair of charming black eyes full of desire, "I want to get out of here!"
By some strange combination of circumstances, Chu Zhantian didn't even ask who this woman was, so he grabbed her hand tightly and gave up the legendary treasure.
The next day, Hailuosha got him a boat, and he left Haiying Island with Hailuosha.
At that time, he didn't know why the woman left with him. It wasn't until half a year later that the two maids who served Hai Luosha suddenly died unexpectedly. There were many ulcers on their bodies. Only then did he know that the goblin was sick, and that
There is no cure for leprosy!
"Do you love me? Maybe you never loved me at all, but used me to leave that place, right?" Chu Zhantian already knew about Haiying Island through the news in the world. The survivors have seen the people on the island.
Lepers, so after that time, no one dared to set foot on that island again!
Hai Luosha looked at him quietly without saying a word, but the charming light on her eyebrows still made him unable to extricate himself. He did not dare to look at her again, for fear that if he continued to look at her, he would become soft-hearted again.
"I have your child!" the woman said in a low voice, with tears in her eyes, "I hope she can grow up in a safe place, and not just grow up like me!"
Chu Zhantian was stunned.
In order to prevent the woman's condition from being discovered by outsiders, he placed her in the deepest part of the house, where only he could approach her and no outsiders were allowed in.
During the day, he was a popular figure in front of the emperor, from a small gatekeeper to a fourth-grade Minister of War. At night, he was deeply in pain. He loved that woman and longed to have her, but he was even more afraid of the leprosy in her body.
At that time, he took turns sleeping in the courtyard of his two wives and concubines. Only at dawn when the woman was sleeping, he would rush over to take a look at her.
Her belly was getting bigger and bigger, and her condition was getting worse. He went to many doctors, but there was no cure for leprosy.
When she was ten months pregnant and gave birth, she sent someone to inform him. When he stepped into the yard, he only heard the cry of the baby.
It was a girl, with the same beautiful face as her, but also with a normal skin color like him. He checked the child's body, thank God, the child survived and did not have leprosy!
Along with the child, there was a letter and a jade pendant left behind. For the first time, he realized that the woman was actually a descendant of the Water Dragon Tribe and a princess of the Shura Kingdom.
For a moment, he really had the urge to throw the child to death. Keeping it would be a disaster, but after all, this child belonged to him and hers, and he loved her so deeply...
"Yiqing, child, from now on, you will be called Chu Yiqing. Clear away everything before and start a new life! Yiqing, you are my, Chu Zhantian and Zheng's child!" He held the child in his arms.
, low opening.
The past was like the wind, and Chu Zhantian let out a faint sigh.
From the day he decided to keep the child, he knew that this day would come. He was afraid, but also looked forward to it. Maybe the day when the child's life experience was exposed was also the day when he could see her again!
"Master!" The old housekeeper's anxious voice brought Chu Zhantian back to his senses, and he quickly walked out of the study.
"Master, Eunuch Yuan really can't wait any longer. You..." The old housekeeper came in in a hurry, his face full of anxiety.
Chu Zhantian nodded, took out the letter from under the copywriting, and handed it to the old housekeeper, "After I enter the palace, give this letter to Qing'er as soon as possible!"
"Master, do you really want to enter the palace? I'm afraid that after entering..." the old housekeeper said anxiously.
"There is no other way, what is supposed to come will always come!" Chu Zhantian said solemnly, "This is the last thing I do for Qing'er!"
The old housekeeper nodded sadly.
Chu Zhantian and the old housekeeper entered the hall, and Eunuch Yuan immediately stood up and said: "King Chu, let's leave quickly. The emperor has sent people to push us away. If the delay continues, the emperor should be blamed!"
Chu Zhantian clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, it's embarrassing for Eunuch Yuan. It happens that my friend is celebrating his birthday today and he came back late. I'm sorry!"
Chu Zhantian said as he and Xiao Yuanzi left the Chu Prince's Mansion.
In the imperial study room of the imperial palace, Li Li sat upright, his eyes fixed on Chu Zhantian who was kneeling on the ground to salute. His eyes gradually became sinister and evil, and his sharp eyes like blades lingered on him for a long time, but he said nothing.
Chu Zhantian lowered his head and spoke cautiously: "Your Majesty, you have summoned me. Is there something important?"
Li Li pondered for a moment, then gradually withdrew his sharp eyes, and whispered, "Ai Qing, I remember that you have been following me since you were thirty years old. It should be more than twenty years ago, right?"
"Yes!" Chu Zhantian raised his head and smiled: "I still remember that I met the emperor in a restaurant. The emperor was just a prince at that time. The emperor said that he wanted the old ministers to follow the emperor and create a new dynasty together!"
As if recalling those young years, Li Li stroked his beard, nodded and said: "We were all very energetic at that time, but now we are all old!"
Chu Zhantian continued to kneel on the ground, nodded and said: "When I saw the emperor at that time, I thought that the emperor would definitely become a dragon among men, so I followed him wholeheartedly!"
Perhaps thinking of Chu Yiqing's life experience, Li Li's eyes darkened, and a murderous aura flashed across the emperor's eyes. It was so fast that it almost made people think it was just an illusion, "You followed me all the way, looking at me
From a prince who was not favored by his father to a prince, and then to an emperor, he has indeed made great contributions!"
"Your Majesty, this is what I should do, and by following the Emperor all the way, I got everything I wanted! Now I am one person below ten thousand people. Such honor and respect are something I have never dared to imagine!"
Chu Zhantian said quickly.
The corners of Li Li's mouth moved slightly, and his eyes gradually turned dark, "Really? Have you never thought about my position?"
Chu Zhantian was stunned and quickly kowtowed: "Your Majesty, I don't know why the Emperor thinks so. I dare to swear that if I have such thoughts, I will be punished by heaven and earth! Your Majesty, is someone trying to sow discord?"
Li Li pulled back a little, slowly raised his eyebrows, and asked in a cold voice: "You really don't have such thoughts?"
Chu Zhantian kowtowed solemnly again: "Your Majesty, I know that I am old, so I beg the Emperor to allow me to return home and take care of myself!"
Li Li suddenly smiled: "I'm afraid it's not that easy, right?"
Chu Zhantian hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, please consider that I have followed the emperor for thirty years. Please agree to this! As long as the veteran retires and returns to his hometown, those who sow discord will naturally have nothing to say!"
Li Li frowned coldly: "It would be nice if it was just as simple as sowing discord!"
Chu Zhantian was shocked, but he still pretended not to know anything and said, "Your Majesty, what happened that made Your Majesty so angry? Did Your Majesty give me time to explain?"
Li Li smiled faintly: "Aiqing, it seems you haven't seen Chu Yiqing for a long time, right?"
Chu Zhantian quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, I knew that Chu Yiqing had committed a capital crime and actually abducted the prince out of the palace. But Your Majesty, you know this. Chu Yiqing had no relationship with me many years ago.
She has long since disowned Lao Chen as her father! If others use Chu Yiqing’s incident to attack Lao Chen, Your Majesty, you must make the decision for Lao Chen!”
Li Li stared at him and said slowly: "You can stay in the palace, I want to meet Chu Yiqing!"
Chu Zhantian was stunned, raised his eyes and asked: "Your Majesty, what do you mean..."
"I miss Huang'er, but it's a pity that he refuses to come back. If Chu Yiqing is willing to come back, Huang'er will come back too, right?" Li Li smiled faintly, as if he was confident, "Chu Yiqing said he doesn't recognize you as his father, then what?
I heard you were seriously ill a year ago, why didn't you rush back as usual?"
Chu Zhantian's heart sank, but he still said calmly: "I am afraid that the emperor will be disappointed!"
"Whether we are disappointed or not, let's just wait and see!" Li Li raised his eyes and shouted to Xiao Fuzi: "Xiao Fuzi, please send people to serve the King of Chu!"
Xiao Fuzi quickly responded: "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Chu Zhantian had no choice but to get up and follow Xiao Fuzi out.
Looking at Chu Zhantian's back, Li Li raised the corners of his lips coldly. He didn't believe that Chu Yiqing really didn't care about the relationship between father and daughter! As long as she comes back...
In the Chu Mansion in Lucheng, Chu Yiqing was rushing to make spring clothes. Considering that this was the first dress she had made for Li Huang to be officially worn outside, she naturally tried her best.
Yingqian also brought a bamboo basket and accompanied Chu Yiqing. The two of them talked and sewed clothes, listening to the light rain outside the house.
"Aunt Chu!" Hua Lin ran in wearing a pink spring dress, her body was all wet.
"Why are you running in the rain on such a cold day? Do you think this is summer?" Chu Yiqing saw it and scolded.
Yingqian quickly put down her needlework, took a clean towel nearby, and wiped Hua Lin's face.
The little girl who was waiting for Hua Lin caught up with her under an umbrella. When she saw this, her lips curled up, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't and just stood outside the door politely.
"It's not raining heavily. This is the first rain this year!" Hua Lin let Yingqian wipe her hair and smiled, her dimples looming.
"Yes, it rains so we can grow food!" Chu Yiqing smiled and picked up the needle and thread to continue sewing.
"Miss Hua, do you want someone to get a piece of clothing? This one is a little damp!" Yingqian asked carefully.
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm keeping myself warm while I'm running!" Hua Lin waved his hand, came forward, looked at the clothes in Chu Yiqing's hand and asked with a smile: "Aunt Chu, is this a new reward for my uncle? This color
It’s so beautiful!”
Chu Yiqing nodded and tilted his head to look at her: "Have you ever gone to see Lingdang? Is Lingdang in a good mood?"
"I just came back from there. Ling Dang is reading a book and is very quiet. Aunt Chu, don't worry!" Hua Lin wrinkled her little nose and said.
"She is your sister, please stay with her more!" Chu Yiqing nodded.
"I know, I know, Aunt Chu, has there been any letter from A Bao recently? I miss him!" Hua Lin said coquettishly, shaking Chu Yiqing's arm.
"I knew you were in trouble. Did you hear Chu Han's letter?" Chu Yiqing smiled, took the letter out from under the pillow on the bed and handed it to Hua Lin, "Here, take it and read it!"
"Thank you, Aunt Chu!" Hua Lin said with a joyful smile, quickly took the letter, and couldn't wait to open it. After reading it, he wrinkled his mouth and said unhappily: "Aunt Chu, why are they all about business? Ah Bao
You didn’t even ask me!”
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "He hasn't been like this all day long, you don't have to mind!"
"But he asked about the bell!" Hua Lin pointed to the two words on the letter, very concerned, "Why did you only ask if the bell was good, but not me?"
Chu Yiqing coaxed her: "Maybe it's because I wrote to him about the bell, and he was just worried!"
Hua Lin pouted and didn't speak for a long time. Finally, he lowered his head and put the letter away and handed it to Chu Yiqing and said: "Auntie, I have to leave!"
Chu Yiqing was stunned and asked: "You just came and are leaving? Why don't you sit down for a while?"
Hua Lin lowered his head, and Chu Yiqing only saw two small buns swaying, turned around and went out.
Hua Lin walked in front in a daze, and the little maid hurriedly followed behind, and the pink and the green disappeared in the drizzle.
Yingqian stood guard at the door until the two of them were out of sight, then came back and said, "Miss, Miss Hualin seems to be sad!"
Chu Yiqing put the needle on his scalp and rubbed it, and said quietly: "She cares a lot about A Bao, but A Bao doesn't like her temper, but the two of them have been noisy, who
Know what will happen in the future!"
Yingqian stepped forward suddenly and asked gossipingly: "Miss, Miss Hualin or Miss Lingdang, which one do you like best?"
Chu Yiqing said calmly: "Hua Lin is lively, although she has a bit of a eldest temperament, but it has changed a lot over the years; Ling Dang is sensible and quiet, both of them have their own characteristics!"
"Then if the young lady is asked to choose one of these two people to be her future daughter-in-law, which one will the young lady choose?" Ying Qian came up and said with a wink.
Chu Yiqing smiled, raised his hand and patted Yingqian's head gently: "A'bao is only six years old, why are you thinking so far ahead? I think you should think about whether you can have a daughter or a son!"
Yingqian smiled sheepishly, couldn't help but touch her belly, and whispered: "Miss made fun of me again, but I only found out yesterday that I am still excited. Why do I think so much?"
"Thanks to Dr. Xu's two doses of medicine this time, I didn't expect it to be available so soon. I was worried at first!" Chu Yiqing asked with a smile, "Did Lei Yuan know about it? Did he say anything? Isn't it very
Happy?"
Yingqian suddenly lowered her face and sat there, saying for a long time: "Okay!"
Chu Yiqing was stunned and saw Yingqian shrugging her shoulders, "That's what he said!"
Only then did Chu Yiqing realize that Yingqian was imitating Lei Yuan's reaction. He couldn't help laughing and said, "Does he really only have this good word? Isn't he too restrained?"
Yingqian sighed: "That's the kind of person he is. Anyway, I'm used to it over the years!"
Chu Yiqing smiled and said: "He must be happy in his heart, but he's just not good at expressing it!"
Yingqian nodded and said with a smile: "I know this clearly!"
Chu Yiqing nodded and said: "Now that you are pregnant, I'm afraid you won't be able to follow me out and about all the time. It's a pity that Yingrun didn't come with me. At this moment, I really don't know who to replace!"
Yingqian said quickly: "Miss, don't be nervous, it's only been a month, it doesn't matter! Besides, I have always been the one to take care of the lady, but now I have changed people, and the lady is not used to it!"
Chu Yiqing said: "Giving a baby is a big deal for you. There must be someone around to take care of you. Bai Lan and Dan Gui have been in the restaurant for a long time. They were young before and it was not a problem in the restaurant. Now they are older.
Now, you have to get married. It’s not good to stay in the restaurant all the time. Just transfer the two of them back. The restaurant will send two other capable people to take care of you. From now on, Bai Lan and Dan Gui will follow you and let them take care of themselves.
Study and study, and when you are familiar with it, just rest!"
Yingqian said no, but Chu Yiqing had made up his mind and couldn't change it, so he had to say thank you.
Before Chu Yiqing finished finishing the clothes, Li Huang came back. After hearing the announcement, Chu Yiqing hurriedly hid the half-finished clothes in the closet. As soon as he turned around, Li Huang came in.
Room.
"What are you hiding?" Li Huang stood there and asked Yingqian to take off her cloak. He stepped forward and gently touched Chu Yiqing's waist regardless of Yingqian's presence. "You can't be hiding a man, right?"
!?"
Yingqian burst into laughter.
"Guarding Yingqian, what nonsense are you talking about!" Chu Yiqing blushed and glanced at Yingqian, who immediately understood.
Li Huang took the opportunity to hug Chu Yiqing and sit on the bed, holding her in his arms, but his big hands were not honest, "I missed you. What about you, did you miss me?"
Fascinated by Li Huang's arousal, Chu Yiqing gasped slightly and whispered: "There are so many refugees who are busy, how can I have time to miss you!"
"Do you really not want to?" Li Huang lowered his head, gently captured Chu Yiqing's lips with his lips, and kissed her hard.
Chu Yiqing raised his head slightly and faced the man.
The room was full of charm.
After the massage, Chu Yiqing rested his head on Li Huang's arm and leaned gently on his broad chest.
Li Huang hugged her back tightly, rubbed his fingers gently in her hair, and whispered: "I heard that something happened in Liu County and it was solved?"
Chu Yiqing nodded: "It's just a small matter. Now the refugee issue has basically been solved. Those who want to stay have a few acres of land. Those who really don't want to stay can go back when Pingliang becomes more stable! Your matter
How's it going?"
Li Huang hugged her body and said, "My uncle is doing his best to calm down the war, but my father refuses to send troops. I have contacted Yang Xin and asked him to think of a way. There will be news in the next few days!"
Chu Yiqing nodded, squinted his eyes, and listened to his steady heartbeat, thump, thump, thump... strong and powerful.
"Sleepy? Do you want to take a nap?" Li Huang blew hot air into her ear.
Chu Yiqing nodded, turned around and hugged him, slowly closing his eyes.
very tired.
Looking at the woman's sleeping little face, the man couldn't help but sigh. He was not satisfied yet. It seemed that he could only be satisfied at night!
Li Huang sat up, put on his clothes, went out and asked Yingqian to boil the bath water first, while he went to the study.
"Sir, letter!" Tenglong handed the letter forward, "It was sent by someone from the Chu Mansion in the capital!"
Li Huang took the letter and opened it. After reading it, his eyes darkened, "Something bad happened!"
"What happened?" Tenglong asked quickly.
"Call Lei Yuan!" Li Huang whispered, "Also, don't tell Madam about this letter yet!"
Tenglong responded quickly.
