"That... thing about Biezhuang, you..." Yu Qingluo hesitated to speak. Although she had not seen the tragedy in Biezhuang with her own eyes, she could imagine such a tragic scene just by looking at Lu Lanfeng's expression. .
Those people... died so innocently.
Ye Xiudu's movements indeed stopped. He had seen it with his own eyes.
Those guards, those servants... were all selected by him personally. He knew every one of them and trusted every one of them.
But these people were all destroyed overnight.
And in such a way, in such a way that he was killed without even using his own abilities.
With a "bah" sound, the chopsticks in Ye Xiu's hand were actually broken by him.
The eyes of Yu Qingluo and Aunt Xiao suddenly moved down and landed on the pair of chopsticks.
Not far away, Mo Xian, who was about to enter the door, also stopped in his tracks.
Aunt Xiao only paused for a moment, then immediately bowed and exited the flower hall, taking Mo Xian away with her.
The flower hall became quiet for a moment. Yu Qingluo stretched out her hand and gently placed it on the back of his hand. She took away the broken chopsticks still held in his palms and used a handkerchief to cover his bloody mouth when he was stabbed by the chopsticks. He complained a little, "I'd better use silver chopsticks next time, it won't break so easily."
Ever since the last time Nannan saw how beautiful and practical his father's silver chopsticks were, he openly took them away with the intention of exchanging them for things when he ran out of silver, and his methods of amassing money became more and more crazy.
Yu Qingluo simply asked Ye Xiudu to use wooden chopsticks. Anyway, with her here, it was unlikely that Ye Xiudu would be poisoned by someone's hands or feet while eating.
Unexpectedly, he exerted such force and it was completely destroyed.
Hearing her muttering, Ye Xiu suddenly came back to his senses. Looking at her gentle movements, he couldn't help but feel warm and said with a smile, "I'm fine, don't worry, just eat."
"Yes." Yu Qingluo stopped asking, fearing that he would crush the bowl later.
However, halfway through the meal, Ye Xiudu was the first to speak, "I've already asked people to handle the matters at Biezhuang. I will... bury them properly, and I will also make proper arrangements for their families."
"Yes." Yu Qingluo nodded, "Now Meng Xin and Concubine Meng are also dead, and all the men in black who killed them have been killed, which can be regarded as avenging them."
As for the deposed prince, Ye Xiudu also said that he would not let him live too well.
The two of them ate in silence for a while. When they put down their chopsticks, they suddenly heard the thumping of footsteps outside the door.
The only one who can make such a sound is Nannan.
Sure enough, as soon as Yu Qingluo stood up, Nan Nan left and came back again, running back to them.
"Dad, you said earlier that you would take your mother out for a trip, and I will go too." He also thought about it for a long time but did not know who the Zuo Protector was. Dad said that if you take your mother to a place, you can know the cause and effect. Now he He was very curious and wanted to find out if it was someone he knew.
Ye Xiu thought for a moment and finally agreed.
Things here have almost been dealt with, it's getting late, and the promises made to Protector Zuo will eventually be fulfilled.
"Let's go." Ye Xiu took mother and son out alone.
Yu Qingluo hesitated in front of the carriage at the door. Ye Xiu stood alone behind her and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"How are you at the city gate? Doesn't it matter if you're not here? I think the news of the deaths of Concubine Meng and Meng Xin will soon reach the ears of the Seventh Prince. When the time comes, he will attack the city at all costs, and the Sixth Prince and the others will Can you withstand it?"
However, Ye Xiudu helped her get into the carriage. It wasn't until the three of them sat down and lowered the curtain that he smiled and said, "Don't underestimate the sixth brother. He is actually... a talented general. It's just that he has been fighting for the past few years." It’s just a matter of not being in the limelight and not being buried under other people’s targets. Besides, there are not only Sixth Brother and the others at the gate of the city, there are also powerful people, so don’t worry.”
Are there any powerful people here? Yu Qingluo was surprised and felt that Ye Xiudu was also mysterious.
"Dad, where are you taking us? Are you going to meet someone?" Nannan couldn't wait any longer. She climbed directly between Yu Qingluo and Ye Xiudu, raised her little head and asked eagerly, "Dad, that What, Yufengtang, does it have any connection with me? Does Nannan know some very important people among them? Let me tell you, dad, no matter how powerful people I know, you don’t have to be surprised, after all, I am like this It’s really normal for a person to specialize in attracting the attention of capable people.”
The corner of Yu Qingluo's mouth twitched, and she pushed Nannan aside, "Can you stop praising yourself every time you speak? It's disgusting, you know?"
Nan Nan raised her neck and glared at Yu Qingluo angrily.
Ye Xiu laughed alone, hugged Nan Nan into his arms, and whispered, "It's not someone you know. I know the Zuo Guardian of Yufeng Hall. I have to thank Shen Ying for this."
Thank Shen Ying
"What do you mean?" Mother and son both looked up at him, their eyes shining with exactly the same look. They were really pretty.
Ye Xiudu was in a much better mood, "When I first heard Shen Ying mention that Peng Ying was from Yufeng Hall, I felt strange. Yufeng Hall has been established for hundreds of years, and all the successive hall masters have been carefully selected. , who only care about Feng Cang Country. With their abilities, they should know that the seventh prince is not an emperor, so why would they choose him to be the emperor?"
"Moreover, this war was started by the seventh brother, and his reason for starting the war is even more unconvincing. Anyone with a discerning eye will know that it is just an excuse, let alone Yufengtang. This kind of unconvincing How can Yufengtang support a war involving powerful forces?"
"However, for me, Yufengtang is indeed a troublesome existence. If Yufengtang is not solved, it will be very detrimental to us. But we really know very little about Yufengtang. The top priority is to know ourselves and our enemies. First Understand Yufengtang and why they chose to side with the Seventh Prince."
"Later I asked Shen Ying if he could still contact the traitor from Yufeng Hall who he had rescued. Shen Ying originally promised not to leak the whereabouts of that person to anyone, but now the situation is different, so he will The man’s address was told to me.”
"Hiding himself in the city, I'm afraid the people in Yufengtang would not have thought that the traitor back then was hiding under their noses, right in the imperial capital."
"I went to see that person, and unexpectedly, I also met an unexpected person at his place."
Yu Qingluo was startled, an unexpected person
"who?"
