Empress Chu

She's not lying, she's so daring, and it looks like she really wants to kill.

Chu Ke's round eyes were full of fear.

Why is Chu Zhao so scary?He didn't notice it before—he didn't pay attention to this cousin before, and when he saw it, he was so superior that he didn't bother to take a second look.

Chu Zhao withdrew his hands and sat up straight after finishing speaking: "Ale, wrap the cloak around the eldest son, don't catch a cold."

Ah Le responded, looked at Chu Ke with a round and simple face, stretched out his chubby hand and patted his cloak vigorously.

Chu Ke pressed his neck and coughed violently, lunatic, Chu Zhao is a lunatic, her maidservant is also a lunatic, her father, Chu Ling is even more a lunatic, and the Erfang family are all lunatics!

He didn't dare to speak anymore, he couldn't reason with the lunatic.

Chu Zhao didn't pay any attention to him anymore, and knew that Chu Ke must still be cursing her and her father in his heart. People think that she doesn't ask questions, but in the future, no one will wantonly slander her father in front of her.

Thinking of this, she was heartbroken and ashamed. In the last life, she was no different from Chu Ke. She also complained about her father all the time. Listening to her uncle's family complaining, not only did she not defend her father, but instead complained with anger.

Complaining about her father ruining such a good future, causing her low status, complaining that her father and mother had sex without a matchmaker, causing her to be ridiculed, complaining that her father sent her to Beijing so late, if she was raised by her grandmother from the beginning I, I must be a dignified noble lady——

In short, as long as her life is not going well, it is all father's fault.

She didn't know at all that she was the one who hurt her father, and even after his father died, he continued to keep her living a stable life for so long.

Chu Zhao raised his hand and pressed back the mist of tears that had dispersed in his eyes.

Someone knocked lightly on the carriage: "Miss Chu."

A Le raised the curtain of the car, Chu Zhao looked at Deng Yi, and asked with concern: "Master Deng is back? How is it?"

When looking for a campsite today, the soldiers sent to explore the road reported that something happened ahead. The officers and soldiers surrounded the bandits, and the bandits fought back fiercely. Deng Yi asked them to stay where they were, and go to the front to see in person.

The din of the battle continued in the middle of the night, and Deng Yi finally came back.

In fact, Deng Yi came back a long time ago, and when he heard that the two brothers and sisters in the carriage were fighting again—to be exact, Miss Chu was hitting Mr. Chu again, so he waited for a while.

"It's over, the men won," he said.

Chu Zhao patted his heart: "That's good, that's good."

There is no way to sleep in the open here, so Deng Yi ordered to move on. A group of people lit torches and crossed a mountain pass along the road, and saw the scene of fierce fighting.

Seeing the scene with your own eyes is more intuitive than listening to the sound and guessing.

The battle was fierce and there were many casualties.

Ale was a little nervous, but Chu Zhao didn't seem to have any reaction. Seeing the blood and wreckage, he calmly turned his eyes away—after all, the lady grew up in the border army and had seen the world, unlike Mr. Chu Ke, who is like a quail Shrunk in the compartment, covering his head and face with his sleeves.

Ah Le wasn't nervous anymore, his expression was as solemn as Chu Zhao's.

Because their identities had already been verified, the group of them were not stopped.

"Miss Chu didn't expect such fierce bandits to exist in the hinterland of the Central Plains, did she?" Deng Yi rode beside the car, looked at Chu Zhao who was looking out with the curtains lifted, and said, "Actually, although the world is said to be peaceful, bandits always exist. "

Chu Zhao murmured, and sighed inwardly, the world would not be peaceful soon. At that time, there would be more bandits and more casualties.

There was a sound of horseshoes, and another group of soldiers and horses came in front of them, shouting "Master Deng."

Deng Yi reined in his horse: "It's the prince."

Xiao Xun?Chu Zhao was suddenly nervous, clutching the car window, seeing a young man wrapped in a black cloak in the dim night, and with the speeding night wind, the cloak was lifted, revealing his white brocade robe, and his face, that face, Chu Zhao Of course I won't forget——

Why is he here?

When Xiao Xun met Deng Yi, he didn't look at the girl sitting in the car staring at him.

"I'm really ashamed that something like this has surprised you." Xiao Xun said apologetically.

Deng Yi said: "My son, there is no need to be nervous. This kind of matter has nothing to do with me. I will not report it to the court, so I will not slander Zhongshan Wang Qingming."

This Deng Yi's speech was really unreserved, Xiao Xun was stunned, his father said that this Deng Yi was just a small Cheng in Weiwei's mansion, but he looked very unruly.

In this case, he is not polite.

"Thank you, my lord." Xiao Xun said, "The leader of the bandits has escaped. For safety, my father ordered me to escort you to Beijing."

What?Escort to Beijing?Chu Zhao, who pricked up his ears behind him, heard it immediately.

"No!" she shouted.

Deng Yi and Xiao Xun looked over, they hadn't spoken yet, Chu Ke also shouted in the carriage.

"Why not!" The boy's voice was hoarse, "Didn't you hear? The most vicious bandit leader is still at large!"

"The escape is also within King Zhongshan's territory. It's good for the son to hunt down the bandit leader." Chu Zhao said, holding the car window tightly, "Master Deng, let's leave quickly."

Deng Yi looked at her, the light of fire and night danced on his face, he shook his head: "Miss Chu, it is my duty to ensure the safety of the journey, I accept the escort of the prince."

Chu Zhao's heart sank leisurely.

Therefore, she couldn't stop Xiao Xun from entering the capital at all, and she couldn't even refuse Xiao Xun to appear by her side.

She tossed and tossed all the way, but nothing was accomplished, she couldn't see her father, and couldn't escape Xiao Xun.

Her eyes were blank, and her hand holding the car window became weak.

Chapter 31 Argue

The lights jumped, and the words "Father Kai" on the envelope on the table case also shook.

Ah Zhao's handwriting is much better than before.

Chu Ling stretched out his hand to stroke gently, then raised his head to look at the boy Ah Jiu who had gone and returned before him.

Vice-General Zhong was invited out again by Chu Ling, and there were only the two of them left in the room again.

"Azhao told you that she wanted to come back?" Chu Ling asked.

Ah Jiu frowned: "Does it need to be said? She spent so much effort and tricked so many people into acting with her just to come back here."

Yeah?Wasn't it because of causing trouble in the capital?This young man doesn't know about A Zhao's beating.

It was about the girl Qing Yu, so Vice General Zhong and Prince Zhongshan must have not said much to these postmen.

Chu Ling remained silent.

"So you don't want her to come back?" Ah Jiu asked.

Chu Ling nodded: "Yes."

Ah Jiu snorted and shrugged: "It's up to you to decide about your father and daughter. I'm leaving."

He just asked, and when he knew the result, it was fine, and he turned around and left.

Chu Ling looked at him, and tapped his fingers on the table lightly, once, twice, three times——

The boy turned around sharply.

"Why didn't you let your daughter come back?" He asked displeasedly, and smiled knowingly, "Is it because it's too annoying?"

"My daughter is not annoying." Chu Ling shook her head and said decisively.

His own child is always good, Ah Jiu curled his lips, he should go, he should have gone, he is just too curious!

"I'm sick." Chu Ling said suddenly, looking at Ah Jiu, "I'm still very sick."

Ah Jiu's figure froze, and her eyes fell on Chu Ling. This general in his 40s has a burly figure, bright eyes, and a rosy complexion——

"I can't see it, I'm keeping it a secret." Chu Ling said with a smile, "No one knows."

Speaking of which, he shook the letter from Mr. Xie's family.

"If he knew, Mr. Xie probably wouldn't have written to make friends with me."

No one knows, so now Chu Ling told him bluntly?

Is this trust?

Young Ah Jiu never rejoices in trust, trust in this world is fatal.

It seems that he won't be able to get out tonight.

He deserved it, who asked him to ask around, and asked for a dead end.

Ah Jiu laughed at herself, but she didn't feel the slightest panic.

"So when I can't hide it, it will become very lively here. For safety, I sent my daughter away. She returned to the capital and lived at home. My family has nothing to do with military power, so she can be safe and sound. Steady." Chu Ling continued, looking at Ah Jiu, "I can't tell her these words, I can only be a cruel father, and she will understand when the dust here falls in the future."

Ah Jiu looked at Chu Ling, said oh, and couldn't help but said, "But I think Miss Chu understands very well now."

Chu Ling asked, "What did she tell you?"

"She didn't say anything to me." Ah Jiu frowned.

This is the truth. The girl had told him lies before, and after being exposed, she didn't say anything to him. She just sat in front of him and wept silently.

Ah Jiu was silent for a moment, and said: "She knows you are sick, and she also knows why you didn't let her come back, she understands your thoughts."

Looking at the young man's face, Chu Ling was also silent for a moment, and then smiled softly: "Okay, it's good that she understands, and I can rest assured."

Ah Jiu sneered.

Chu Ling looked at the young man, and asked with a smile: "What? You think what I said is wrong?"

"I don't think you're wrong." Ah Jiu looked at him, with a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, "I just think that people are really selfish, and the selflessness of parents' love is also a lie."

Chu Ling smiled: "I still think I'm wrong, how do you say that?"

"General Chu, you said that you are only for Miss Chu's good, so you hide from her that you are sick, and you are not allowed to come back no matter what, so as to avoid the danger of her getting involved here." Ah Jiu said, "All you did was for She's fine, let her live in peace."

Chu Ling nodded: "Yes, I think parents will make such arrangements for their children."

Ah Jiufeng's eyes are full of smiles: "Yes, every parent will do this. They want their children to live a stable and prosperous life, to be able to make contributions, to be able to leap from branch to branch, to be able to wear gold and silver, to eat and drink, and everyone envies—"

Well, Chu Ling looked at this young man, whether every parent would, he was not sure, but he was sure that this young man's parents were also like this.

"But." The smile in Ah Jiu's eyes dissipated, "That's just what the parents think, they think it's good for their children, and they think it's a good life, and they're not for their children, but for themselves."

Chu Ling looked at him and said nothing.

Ah Jiu looked at him and paused every word: "For your own peace of mind, for your own moving yourself."

"You don't care at all what your children want in their hearts, and you don't care what kind of heartache they will face in the future."

"They wear gold and silver, and every time they eat, they think that this is the sacrifice of their parents. What they wear is not gold and silver, but the blood of their parents. What they eat is not rice, but the flesh of their parents."

"They are trapped in pain, regret and self-blame day and night. This is what you parents think is a good day."

"You have paid, and you have nothing to worry about. It is nothing for the children to be sad, sad and heartbroken. It is enough to have a stable life, eat and drink well, and live a rich life. Don't let your parents' good intentions live up to you."

In the brightly lit room, the boy's voice echoed hoarsely, and his face was full of sneering.

"As parents, you can do whatever you want, because you are parents, you have the final say, but please don't say anything, it's for your children to live a good life."

"That's really not for the good life of your children, it's just for your own good life."

Chu Ling looked at him, the warm smile on his face disappeared, and his eyes became deep.

The sarcasm in Ah Jiu's eyes dissipated, and annoyance emerged, why did he say such nonsense, and it was with a stranger.

No one spoke, and the room became eerily quiet.

"Okay." Chu Ling nodded, breaking the silence, "I see, it's getting late, you have to hurry, go back first."

Without saying a word, Ah Jiu turned around and stepped forward, opened the door and strode out without looking sideways, brushing past Deputy General Zhong standing outside the door and hurried away.

This time, Deputy General Zhong didn't go in immediately, but stared at the boy's back.

Sure enough, when he was about to step out of the gate, he came back again.

Vice Admiral Zhong rolled his eyes, without even looking at the young man walking past him and entering the room.

"Azhao, what else did she tell you—" Chu Ling asked.

"I told you she didn't say anything to me!" Ah Jiu interrupted him angrily.

Chu Ling smiled, stopped talking, and stretched out her hand to ask him to speak.

Ah Jiu looked at him: "You told me such an important matter of yours, just let me go like this?" He raised his head arrogantly, "I repeat, your daughter has nothing to do with me, and her life and death have nothing to do with me. It doesn't matter to her whether she lives or dies."

So don't misunderstand that Ah Zhao has a deep-rooted affection for him, did you not kill him in order not to make Ah Zhao sad?Chu Ling laughed.

"Young man." He said, tapping the letter on the table with his fingers, "Didn't you just say that? You are only here to deliver the letter. After delivery, the task is over. Other things are not your task. Since It's not your task, so why not know?"

Ah Jiu glanced at him, turned around to leave without saying a word.

"Also." Chu Ling said behind him, "If a person is really a threat to me, even if my daughter loves him deeply, I will not let him go. If this man hurts me, he will definitely hurt me. Daughter, for my daughter, I will definitely get rid of him."
