Enter Qin Wangfu.
Qin Wang looked at the letter just sent by his subordinates, and a pair of eagle eyes suddenly shot out a sharp light.
The people he sent to the south would not come back for some time, but the people who were operating in the capital sent back a very interesting piece of news.
Aunt Chen in Uncle Anjing's mansion died in childbirth. It stands to reason that there should be a woman and a baby's bones inside, but his people dug out Aunt Chen's coffin and found only the bones of an adult inside. , After the inspection by Wu, the skeleton belonged to a girl who had never given birth.
Funny, really funny.
King Qin casually threw the letter into the teacup in front of him, the letter paper swelled immediately after absorbing the water, and the writing on it also became blurred: "How long will it take for the group of people who came back from the border to arrive in Beijing? "
The long follower said: "According to the news sent back, if it is slow, it will take ten days, if it is fast, it will arrive in Beijing in seven or eight days."
King Qin nodded, his eyes fell on a portrait hanging not far away.
He couldn't wait to meet the young hero in the eyes of the emperor.
King Qin couldn't have imagined that Chu Yan was in Su Yan's boudoir right now.
Su Yan and the maids in her room are already used to Chu Yan's behavior of climbing the window at every turn.
After Liu Xiang and Cai Xia made tea for Chu Yan and served some snacks, they went out to guard the gate for the two of them very knowingly.
At first Cai Xia didn't approve of Chu Yan's visit to Su Yan in the middle of the night, thinking that it would hurt her daughter's reputation, she would always persuade Su Yan not to let the prince into the house in the future. But after a few times... Caixia felt that her girl didn't have a good reputation in front of the prince, so she stopped persuading her.
Su Yan was wearing a homely pink gown, holding Taosu in her arms and asked Chu Yan with a smile, "Why are you here so early today?"
Chu Yan has been very busy since he came back, and every time he came to see Su Yan, he took the time to come, and sometimes he came in the middle of the night, afraid of waking Su Yan up, so he just stood at the window to take a look at Su Yan, and then left.
Taosu leaned lazily on Su Yan's chest, saw Chu Yan jump off Su Yan, and circled around Chu Yan curiously.
Chu Yan looked at Su Yan with gentle eyes: "I'm done with the things I have in hand, so I'll be free naturally."
Only half a month after returning to Beijing, Chu Yan's rough skin has faded away, and his complexion is not much different from when he didn't leave Beijing before. If he stands there and closes his eyes and doesn't speak, he really looks like a gentle jade Mr. Pianpian.
Su Yan never asked Chu Yan, and she didn't know what Chu Yan was busy with these days, but she vaguely knew that it must be related to King Qin. Now that Chu Yan said that he was done with work, he should have finished the arrangements for King Qin.
Su Yan felt a lot more relaxed, and looked at Chu Yan with a smile on her face: "I'm going to offer incense at Ci'an Temple in a few days, do you want to come together?"
This is the first time that Su Yan invited Chu Yan to go out, but he was destined to disappoint Su Yan, and Chu Yan showed an apologetic look on his face: "I will leave you in a while and I will hurry to meet the big team going to Beijing." Now, in order not to let people notice the strangeness, I have to go to Beijing with them, so I can't accompany you this time. When I come back, I will accompany you to go again. "
Su Yan felt a little disappointed, although she knew that what Chu Yan was doing was serious business, she should let him go at ease. But she just couldn't help pouting her lips to be petty towards Chu Yan.
Su Yan's peach blossom eyes looked at Chu Yan with reluctance, her bright red lips pouted slightly, and her inadvertently charming attitude dazzled Chu Yan's eyes.
Chu Yan smiled and extended his hand to Su Yan.
Su Yan thought that Chu Yan just wanted to hold her hand like every time, and passed it over without thinking, but she didn't want Chu Yan to force her, and she suddenly fell into his arms, which made Su Yan feel uncomfortable. There was an exclamation.
"Don't move." Chu Yan's voice passed by Su Yan's ear: "Don't want me to go?"
Tao Su was circling around Chu Yan at first, when she saw Chu Yan hugging Su Yan, she immediately squatted down on the ground, tilted her head and looked at the two people in front of her in puzzlement.
"I didn't..." I didn't feel reluctant to say a few words, Su Yan closed her mouth after speaking halfway, she suddenly thought of what Chen Lingfei said that day, her voice immediately changed: "I am a bit reluctant."
Chu Yan looked down at Su Yan, and she could see the reluctance in her eyes. Su Yan obviously had a dignified manner when she was outside, and she looked like a lady of every family, but every time she was alone with him, she was so tender. Delicate and soft, it is very pitiful.
Chu Yan looked at Su Yan with more and more fiery eyes.
Su Yan had an intuition that something was wrong, subconsciously wanted to escape: "The charcoal fire is too hot, I'm going to open a slit for the window."
In order not to make himself suffer, Chu Yan also let go of Su Yan cooperatively.
Su Yan immediately ran to the window and opened a small gap, then picked up the peach cake that was following her, went to the table and broke a piece of peach cake for her to eat.
When Chu Yan saw it, he stopped him and said, "It can't eat these things, it won't digest well, and these oily and salty things are easy to make it lose hair, and tears are easy to form under the eyes."
"I don't know." Hearing Chu Yan's words, Su Yan quickly threw half of the peach cake in her hand into a basket aside: "I won't give it to eat in the future, but I ate it a few times before, so it shouldn't be a big deal. "
Saying that, Su Yan lifted Taosu up, and took a closer look under Taosu's eyes.
"So stupid." Chu Yan's words were full of affection.
Su Yan put down the peach cake, and said to Chu Yan unconvinced: "You are five years older than me. You were literate when I was born. It's normal that I don't know as many things as you do."
"Think I'm old?" Chu Yan raised his eyebrows, and reached out to grab Su Yan.
Su Yan took a few steps back, and smiled slyly: "How could it be, even if you are older, but the seniority is here, if you talk about it from my mother, I still have to call you cousin."
"What do you call me?" Chu Yan frowned.
Su Yan held Taosu in her arms, and boldly called out in a coquettish and elongated voice: "Cousin."
Knowing that Su Yan did it on purpose, Chu Yan grabbed Su Yan into his arms again, this time no matter how much she begged for mercy and made excuses, Chu Yan refused to let her go.
"Everyone knows how to bully me. When I stand up one day, you will be able to eat everything that is low and high!" He Xiang returned after pouring the bucket, cursing continuously in his mouth.
Seeing that the light in Su Yan's room was still on, she felt a little strange, but she didn't take it to heart, and walked towards her place with a pail along the wall.
"Why haven't you slept at this point?" He Xiang murmured and yawned and glanced in the direction of the lit window. Coincidentally, she happened to see a figure at the side window of Su Yan's room. After a while, the figure does not seem to be Su Yan's, but looks like a man's shadow.
He Xiang woke up all of a sudden, put down the Gong bucket and hid in the distance to stare for a while, and sure enough, he saw the tall figure he saw just now jumped out of the window.
Surprised and suspicious, He Xiang immediately hid behind the pillar, her heart was pounding, and when she finally calmed down, He Xiang poked her head out again but could only see the closed window in Su Yan's room.
Did she read it right? The fifth girl had a tryst with a man in the middle of the night? Didn't she have a marriage contract with Prince Jing's son? Who is that man
"Bah! How shameless!" He Xiang spat on the ground, picked up the bucket and walked back, her eyes rolling around, not knowing what she was thinking.
