Chen Liehu was in the palace, thinking about breaking into the back hall. King Wu would be angry, but he couldn't do anything to him.
Anyway, King Wu was angry with him not once or twice.
Thinking of King Wu's coveting of Chen Danyan, he couldn't sit still. Just when he was about to get up, Chen Danzhu came back, but King Wu did not come.
The eunuch who sent Chen Danzhu back smiled and said: "Your Majesty is a little tired after hearing what Miss Chen said. He should go back and rest first."
Tired? Which kind of tired? Zhang Jianjun looked at Chen Danzhu with an annoyed look. Chen Danzhu's clothes and hair were a little messy, which was nothing. She had been like this since she entered the palace - she came back from the military camp and had not yet returned.
She had time to change clothes. As for her face, Chen Danzhu lowered her head, looking delicate and timid, with no expression visible.
Why are you pretending to be cowardly? If Zhang Jianjun didn't take it seriously before, now that he knows that this little girl killed his brother-in-law, he doesn't believe that she is really cowardly.
What exactly did you say to the king? He would not leave until he asked clearly. Before he could ask, Chen Liehu had already asked: "Eunuch, the matter of the old minister——"
The eunuch said with a smile: "Your Excellency, the second lady has made the matter clear. Your Majesty knows that I wrongly blamed you. Your Excellency has handled Li Liang's matter well. It is up to you to decide what to do next."
Chen Liehu glanced at Chen Danzhu, but still refused to leave, and asked: "Now that the military situation is urgent, can the king order a war? The most effective way is to divide the troops and cut off the river road——"
King Wu had a headache when he heard this, and the eunuch had an even more headache. He ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, but also said: "My lord, the king has already made up his mind. He needs to think about it again. My lord, please go back first and deal with Li Liang's matter first."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Chen Liehu said afterward: "What will happen to Li Liang's matter? The veteran will hang his body to show to the public——"
The eunuch had already gone out of sight, so there was no need for Chen Liehu to say the rest.
Zhang Jianjun thought about asking for information from his daughter and ignored Chen Liehu. Wen Zhong said coldly: "It's not appropriate. Let the people know that Chen Taifu's son-in-law has deserted the King of Wu. It will be confusing."
Chen Liehu's face was solemn: "Let the people know that even if my son-in-law, Mr. Chen, dares to betray the king, he will die. Only then will the morale of the army and the people be stabilized." His eyes were fixed on Wenzhong, Zhang Jianjun and others, "Shock those Xiaoxiao who have strange thoughts.
!”
Wen Zhong looked livid and sarcastically said, "Only the Grand Tutor is loyal." After saying that, he waved his sleeves and left.
The others also dispersed, and in an instant only Chen Liehu was left in the hall. He turned around and saw Chen Danzhu looking at him.
"What's wrong?" he asked hurriedly. Seeing his daughter's strange expression, and thinking of something bad, he felt angry in his heart, "Your Majesty, he——"
What Chen Danzhu was thinking about was that her father scolded Zhang Jianjun and others as Xiao Xiaoxiao with strange thoughts. In fact, she could be considered one. Alas, when she saw Chen Liehu asking with concern, she lowered her head to avoid it, but thinking about such care, she would only worry about it in the future.
It won't happen anymore. She raised her head again and told her father with a flat mouth: "Your Majesty, he didn't do anything to me. After I talked about my brother-in-law, I was just a little scared. Your Majesty might hate us."
Chen Liehu breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't be afraid, your Majesty has been hating me for more than a day or two."
He laughed as he said it, thinking it was a good joke.
Chen Danzhu did not smile, but shed tears.
Chen Liehu groaned and wiped her tears with his big hands in a panic: "I didn't mean that, I meant that the king doesn't like what I do, but he knows that I am loyal and will be fine. As long as we can protect the land of Wu, our family will be safe."
This matter is over."
Wu Di couldn't hold on, and this matter couldn't be overcome. Chen Danzhu asked her father to wipe away her tears, nodded and supported Chen Liehu's arm: "As long as my father is here, I'm not afraid. Let's go home. My sister is still here."
at home."
Chen Liehu didn't like being helped, but looking at his daughter's delicate face and the trembling tears on her long eyelashes - her daughter was close to him, he let Chen Danzhu support him and said hello, thinking of his eldest daughter.
When he thought about his carefully cultivated son-in-law and his dead son, his heart was filled with bitterness. Chen Liehu's life was coming to an end, and his suffering was coming to an end, right?
"Father." Chen Danzhu did not dare to look at his father's face. He looked outside and said softly, "It's raining."
Chen Liehu turned around and looked outside the palace. The rain was pouring down from the gloomy sky, and the smooth palace road was colorful. He patted Chen Danzhu's hand and said, "Let's go home quickly."
When the two returned home, it was already raining heavily. Chen Liehu first went to see Chen Danyan. After hearing that the doctors said that the child was fine, he sat silently beside Chen Danyan's bed for a moment, then gathered his troops and went out in the rain.
Chen Danzhu watched Chen Liehu leave in the corridor, wearing armor and holding a knife. He knew that he was going to the city gate to wait for Li Liang's body. When the body arrived, he personally hung it on the city gate to show the public.
She stared at the pouring rain for a moment, and out of the corner of her eye she saw someone hurriedly flashing past -
"A Tian." She shouted.
A Tian, who had been hiding in the corner, stood up timidly, knelt down and said repeatedly: "This slave is brewing medicine for the eldest lady. I didn't bump into you, the second lady, on purpose." She buried her head in her chest without raising her head.
stand up.
The housekeeper said that the second lady didn't want to see her - A Tian bit her lower lip and couldn't hold back the tears. She must not cry.
Chen Danzhu sighed and pulled her up.
"A Tian, I couldn't take you for convenience, and I was afraid that you would leak the news, so I said that to the housekeeper. I didn't hate you, I scared you." She said solemnly, "I'm sorry."
When did the second young lady ever apologize to anyone? A Tian was so frightened that her tears stopped flowing. Suddenly she didn’t know what to say and stammered: "Second young lady, if anything happens in the future, let A Tian help you."
Chen Danzhu looked at her face. She was saved from death and sent to Peach Blossom Temple. All the surviving servants in Peach Blossom Temple were dismissed. There was no Taifu, the second young lady of the Chen family, and no group of maids and maids. A Tian was not
If she is willing to leave, kneel down and beg, saying that there are no servants or maids, then she will become a monk in Peach Blossom Temple——
In this way, if I stayed with her quietly for ten years, I would inevitably die with her.
Chen Danzhu nodded: "Okay."
Ah Tian burst into tears and turned into a smile.
"Leave the matter of boiling the medicine to others," Chen Danzhu said, "I want to take a shower and change clothes."
Ah Tian responded happily.
Chen Danzhu simply washed and changed his clothes, then came to the housekeeper with an umbrella: "Where are the people who followed me back?"
While Chang Shan was knocked unconscious and dragged down, a dozen people who followed Chen Danzhu in were also imprisoned - by default they were Li Liang's troops.
Once the gate of Chen's residence was closed, more than a dozen people could not fly out, and they did not resist.
The housekeeper took Chen Danzhu to a room in the backyard: "They are all here, with their weapons and armor tied up."
Chen Danzhu said to him: "I want to ask them something, so go ahead and go ahead."
Did the second young lady not let him listen? The housekeeper was stunned for a moment: "Second young lady, they are vicious soldiers." What if he goes crazy, hurts the second young lady, or uses the second young lady as a threat——
Chen Danzhu said: "It's okay, they don't dare to hurt me." After saying that, he opened the door and went in.
The housekeeper wanted to follow, but was stopped by A Tian who was holding an umbrella: "Grandpa housekeeper, we ladies are not afraid, so what are you afraid of?"
The housekeeper shook his head helplessly. Okay, he was rude. The second young lady is now a very thoughtful person. Thinking of the scene when the second young lady came back that rainy night, he still felt like he was dreaming. He thought the little girl was spoiled and had a bad temper.
With the intention of killing——
Chen Danzhu closed the door. The weapons were originally stored in this room. At this time, the weapons on the wooden rack were gone. Instead, they were replaced by a group of tied people. When they saw her coming in, these people looked calm, without fear or anger.
"Second Miss." Doctor Wang greeted with a smile, "Are you done?"
Chen Danzhu asked: "Isn't Doctor Wang afraid?"
Doctor Wang smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? It's just death."
Sometimes death is very scary, but sometimes it is nothing. Chen Danzhu thought that she was only happy when she decided to die in her last life.
"Just don't be afraid, Doctor Wang." She said, "I just met the king and made a promise for the general."
Doctor Wang asked: "What's the matter?"
Chen Danzhu said: "The King of Wu is willing to let the court come in to investigate the assassins, and the court's troops will retreat. I wonder if the general can take this decision?"
This is too sudden, especially now that the imperial court has the upper hand and can win in one battle - this is a disadvantage for the imperial court.
Doctor Wang's expression changed several times. He was thinking of meeting King Wu. Once he met King Wu, he would have more things to do. He nodded slowly: "Yes."
In his previous life, Li Liang cut off King Wu's head directly. I don't know if it was his own idea or the emperor's order.
General Iron Mask is a general trusted by the emperor who can entrust the three armies, but a general who leads the army can lead the peace talks between the court and the King of Wu?
Whether she can really do it or not, she actually has no choice. At this point, she can only bite the bullet and go on. Chen Danzhu said: "The king will come and give me something in a while. I will write down what happened this time. As for you,
My servant, follow the eunuch into the palace to report, and then you can talk to the king."
Doctor Wang said hello.
Chen Danzhu said calmly: "To be honest, I coerced the king to get him to agree to see you. As for whether the king really wants to see you or is just coaxing you, I don't know. Maybe you will be killed when you go in."
Doctor Wang smiled and said, "Just ask the second lady to prepare some decent clothes for me."
