Chapter 468 The relationship between Xiao Changfeng and Xiao Lei
After sending Zhao Chengji away unwillingly, Xiao Changfeng's eyes finally fell on the figure riding away.
Su Nianyun followed his line of sight and said, "Xiao Changfeng, you... seem to be paying close attention to Xiao Lei?"
She had already noticed it while eating.
Xiao Lei's throat was injured and he couldn't speak.
It stands to reason that he who is the most silent cannot attract others to look at him.
However, Xiao Changfeng looked at him from time to time.
Xiao Lei? Xiao Changfeng?
Thunder and wind...
Su Nianyun suddenly had a strange feeling when the two names were put together.
Xiao Changfeng turned around and after hearing Su Nianyun's question, his slender eyes looked quite complicated.
"What's wrong?" Su Nianyun took the initiative to step forward and hold his hand, "Are you troubled?"
Xiao Changfeng looked at Rou Yi in surprise, holding his rough hands.
Ever since he sent her back and the two had a passionate kiss on the carriage, the barrier between them seemed to have disappeared.
Now, Su Nianyun pays more attention to him than before.
After being surprised, Xiao Changfeng had a relieved smile on his face.
"It's nothing, I just think it's incredible that Xiao Lei, who has always been greedy for life and afraid of death, dares to take such a big risk with you for treatment."
Everyone has secrets in their hearts, and his secret is also the deepest wound on his body. There has just been a warm atmosphere between him and Su Nianyun, and he doesn't want to be disturbed by other things.
"It's incredible."
Su Nianyun nodded, "The Xiao Lei I saw when I returned to Beijing this time is completely different from the Xiao Lei I saw in the army in the past..."
At that time, Xiao Lei was a son who was over-indulged by his mother and an eldest son who carried his father's high hopes.
He glanced upwards all day long without keeping his feet firmly on the ground. He was proud and carefree, and he didn't listen to anyone's words.
The purpose of his being recommended by his father to go out as a left general was to cause trouble for the generals and the right generals and prevent them from defeating Fan Bang. In the end, he forced Zhao Chengji to give in and then asked the court to send the sixth prince to save the situation.
The plan was such a plan, but when it was actually implemented, it was completely disrupted by the cruelty of the war.
When he returned to the capital, Xiao Lei became a silent and reserved person.
He was no longer high-spirited, and his expression was even full of exhaustion. Even though he knew the operation would fail, he still begged Su Nianyun to give it a try. He just wanted to make a desperate move.
While Su Nianyun recalled the comparison of her impressions of meeting Xiao Lei before and after, she held Xiao Changfeng's hand and returned to the hall.
"...But since his mother came to my place, I know why he is so desperate..."
"Webster has been here too?" Xiao Changfeng frowned.
Xiao Han, who was following the two of them, trembled when he noticed that his master's brows were frowning.
The Xindao secret guards have been slacking off recently. When someone with the status of Mrs. Hou came to the Su residence, no one reported it.
When we go back, the master must have taken care of things.
Going further into the inner courtyard, he did not follow him, but consciously chatted with the three brothers Su Da in the outer courtyard.
"Yes, Webster," Su Nianyun nodded, "You have been in the court and in the army. You may know Xiao Hu, Xiao Lei and his son, but you don't know much about Mrs. Xiao Hou. This Webster..."
Su Nianyun immediately told Xiao Changfeng what Nanny Liu had told her originally, plus what she realized after seeing her.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Changfeng didn't show any surprise after hearing this.
Su Nianyun said, "Could it be that you already knew that Webster was this kind of person?"
Xiao Changfeng nodded, "By chance, I have a few opportunities...to learn more about the deeds of the Marquis and his wife..."
Su Nianyun saw that he said it so lightly, but she didn't believe it in her heart.
At this time, the simple meals on the table in the hall had been taken away and replaced by a few exquisite side dishes.
Chunhua brought the fish soup again.
"The meal just now was just to fool the prince. Now that he is gone, you have to eat well."
Su Nianyun said nothing else, but pulled him to sit down and let him try the cooking skills of Su Zhai's kitchen.
In the morning, Xiao Changfeng rescued her at Tian'en Waterside Pavilion, sent her back to his house, and went to see Zhao Chengji non-stop. After completing Zhao Chengji's instructions, he finally returned to Su's house.
At the dinner table just now, no one actually ate much. Everyone was doing it openly and secretly, so there was no time to eat.
Therefore, Su Nianyun's current goal is to let Xiao Changfeng eat well.
Xiao Changfeng sat down with Su Nianyun, and at a glance, they were all his favorite foods.
He couldn't help but curl up his lips and smile.
Because I was cared about by the woman sitting next to me, today's fatigue just disappeared.
He picked up his chopsticks and started eating the dish closest to him.
Su Nianyun was beside him, accompanying him silently and not speaking to him, only letting him focus on eating.
After he finished all the food on the table, Su Nianyun asked Chunhua to prepare tea, and the two of them sat in the study.
"Actually..." Su Nianyun looked at Xiao Changfeng, "You have something to ask me about Xiao Lei, right?"
In the capital, the tit-for-tat confrontation between the big and small princes has a long history.
According to many people, it was the Great Xiao Hou who was afraid that his position would be impacted by the newly promoted Little Xiao Hou, so he kept running against Xiao Changfeng, both covertly and overtly.
But Su Nianyun felt that she couldn't believe the rumors from outside.
For example, in the previous life, everyone said that Xiao Changfeng was a traitor in the court, who confuses the saints and harms loyal people.
At that time, Su Nianyun also followed hearsay and what others said.
But after her rebirth, as she came into contact with Xiao Changfeng and Zhao Chengji, she also gained a clear understanding of their personalities.
The more she came into contact with Xiao Changfeng, the less she believed that Xiao Changfeng would be a traitor who would do anything to eradicate dissidents in the future.
However, after being in contact with the eighteenth prince in the past and the current prince for a long time, Su Nianyun felt that Zhao Chengji, who would be in power in the future, would not be able to tolerate such a treacherous person who manipulated power in the court.
The only possibility is that Zhao Chengji uses Xiao Changfeng to secretly eliminate those who oppose his imperial power.
After thinking about this, Su Nianyun's last fear of Xiao Changfeng disappeared.
Moreover, when recalling his past life, Su Nianyun also thought of another point
That is, although Xiao Changfeng was seemingly incompatible with Xiao Hu, the Great Xiao Hou, in fact, Xiao Changfeng accompanied the emperor all the way to the throne and never took revenge on Xiao Hu.
After all, Xiao Lei was not rescued on the battlefield at that time. Since then, Xiao Hu hated Xiao Changfeng even more, and his opposition to Xiao Changfeng became even more fierce.
At the same time, because Xiao Changfeng and Zhao Chengji were together, Xiao Hu was in the camp of the Sixth Prince.
In the end, the sixth prince didn't know where he was sent by Zhao Chengji, but Xiao Hu still sat firmly in the capital...
Thinking of this, Su Nianyun looked at Xiao Changfeng extremely seriously.
"What is your relationship with the Xiaohou Mansion?"
