The host went on strike again today

Chapter 98 [98] Lord Governor, are you playful (23)
Ever since the traitor incident happened in the princess mansion, Tang Rui discussed with Wang Momo and then removed more than half of the useless people. Anyway, there are only a few masters in the princess mansion, and Tang Rui is not used to being dressed A piece of clothing is also served for a long time.

Especially when she was alone with Cheng Yuan at night, even the shadow guards were on guard outside the room.

The originally gentle and jade-like man was drunk, and his handsome face suddenly became more childish, and some old and new scars could be seen from the cuffs.

He has no teacher, only the books she gave him, and he is self-taught, so he will inevitably have bumps and bumps sometimes.

Thinking about it carefully, this age is only the age of going to college in modern times, is she a bit counterproductive to Cheng Yuan?

She was thinking wildly when suddenly her wrist was held, and she met a pair of smoky gray eyes that were still slightly hazy.

When the man thought about it, he also dragged Tang Rui down because of the alcohol.

Tang Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and was about to break free when she suddenly heard light footsteps on the roof.

Chu Jiuge probably hasn't left yet.

She pressed Cheng Yuan's mouth that was about to open with her fingers, shushed lightly, pushed him away pretending to be disgusted, and shouted that the slaves would come in and clean up the son-in-law.

When the servants tidied up Cheng Yuan and the two of them lay back on the bed again, Cheng Yuan's alcohol had already fully awakened.

The sound of footsteps on the ridge of the roof also went away.

Tang Rui frowned secretly, maybe Chu Jiuge was still suspicious, but there was nothing she could do.

She turned around and asked the man inside, "There was someone on the roof just now. How are you?"

It was the first time the two shared the bed, and Cheng Yuan always felt that he was still drunk. He was very glad that the lights were turned off, because only he knew that he was already completely red at this moment.

It took a long time to choke out a hoarse "No problem."

The atmosphere was stunned and silent for a while.

Tang Rui wrapped the quilt tightly and changed the subject.

"Cheng Yuan, why did you go to Fireworks and Willow Alley with Prime Minister Li today?"

"I didn't touch them." Cheng Yuan's head felt hot, and when he returned, he suddenly realized something, and the heat rose again.

Tang Rui didn't see his appearance, only thought he was young and vigorous.

Laughing, "That's not what I'm asking, I'm asking if you said anything to the prime minister that shouldn't be said."

Only then did Cheng Yuan remember what happened during the day today, his handsome face turned cold, but he still told about Prime Minister Li's attempt to win him over.

In fact, she didn't tell Cheng Yuan the reason for the sudden close relationship between Tang Rui and the Eighth Prince's Mansion, but Cheng Yuan vaguely guessed that it might have something to do with Chu Jiuge.

Taking advantage of Cheng Yuan's expression of depression and Princess Zhenguo's ignorance, he tested Prime Minister Li's position. Prime Minister Li wanted to use Cheng Yuan and Tang Rui to express his willingness to form an alliance, and indirectly let Cheng Yuan "empty". The "glove white wolf" knew about the "deal" between Tang Rui and Li Shi.

Following Cheng Yuan's narration, he saw that Tang Rui wasn't shocked or objected at all, and his guess gradually turned into certainty that it was really Chu Jiuge!
Why she wanted to deal with Chu Jiuge and what her plan was, she never told him. Even Prime Minister Li knew more than him.

Tang Rui was thinking here when she suddenly heard 001 exclaiming that the male partner's happiness value had dropped by 5%.

After adapting to the darkness, she clearly saw the disappointment and anger in those smoky gray eyes. Tang Rui instantly understood why the happiness value dropped. It was because she ignored the man's self-esteem.

"I'm sorry Cheng Yuan, I didn't think carefully." She apologized readily, and explained seriously, "I didn't tell you before because Chu Jiuge is too powerful, there may be moles around us, but in fact I still didn't think carefully , you don’t know anything but it’s more dangerous.”

She paused, then continued, "Do you still remember General Chu who was implicated 20 years ago?"

20 years ago, there was a mutiny that caused a sensation in Yushang. General Chu, who was guarding the border, suddenly rebelled, and was later found to have ransacked his entire family.

In fact, General Zhang was killed because he discovered the conspiracy of Queen Mother Zhao to poison the former queen.

"Chu Jiuge is the youngest son of General Chu. He was placed in the palace by my father, in order to prevent the people of the Zhao family from becoming big one day, but in fact, Chu Jiuge already knew his identity. What he wants is to control Yushang and be the top ten thousand people."

Tang Rui was not surprised to find that Cheng Yuan's brows were tightly frowned after explaining.

"How can he, a eunuch, be the best among ten thousand people?" Cheng Yuan asked the key.

Tang Rui was speechless, wondering why his focus was lost, she patted him on the shoulder, "It doesn't matter, as long as the emperor is easy to control, even if he is [-] years old, he is still above [-] people."

"Eighth Prince?"
