Reborn to marry, she no longer wants to be the young master's mother

"Really? What's in the ointment? If my sister hadn't applied it on me, I would have been the one stung by the bee."

"If you still don't admit it, can I have someone check this ointment?"

Xie Chaochao raised his eyes, which were as sharp as a knife.

Liu Fengling gritted her teeth. She didn't expect Xie Chaochao to be so smart and see through it immediately.

She walked over and asked, "So what do you want?"

"Not pretending anymore?" Xie Chaochao looked at her.

Liu Fengling smiled, "Don't you want to talk about it? Since you didn't tell your cousin about this, then you have something to tell me, right?"

Xie Chaochao discovered that her brain was indeed working well.

Talking to smart people is not tiring at all.

Xie Chaochao nodded, "Yes."

"I know you want to marry him. You've hated me since I married into the Chu family. But I'm telling you, I don't like him. I'll divorce him after I've dealt with my affairs. By then, I'll give you a clean Chu Heng."

"What do you want?" Liu Fengling suddenly became alert.

"What do you think? How about we make peace? You for Chu Heng, I for revenge, each of us gets what we want."

Liu Fengling was a smart person and he had played Xie Yue'er around in his previous life.

Xie Chaochao doesn't think that there will be nothing else after the ointment.

Liu Fengling looked Xie Chaochao up and down.

She felt like she had been kicked in the head by a donkey.

How could he say such a thing?

But this also means that she doesn't love Chu Heng, so it's better this way, they can each go their own way.

She nodded, "Okay, it's a deal. I hope you'll keep your promise and not tell Chu Heng about this."

"it is good."

Xie Chaozhao smiled slightly and watched her leave.

The wind in the summer night is not cold, it feels warm on the body, making people reluctant to leave.

There were footsteps behind him, and then a large coat was put on him. "You're not healed yet, and you're coming out now, aren't you afraid of catching a cold?"

Xie Chaochao turned around and saw a tall and handsome man standing beside her. Every time she saw him, she would be attracted by his heroic demeanor.

If she had not died once and married the wrong person once, perhaps she would have fallen in love with this young general.

But she won’t do that now. She wants to investigate the clues of her mother’s death and protect the safety of the Chu family.

Romance does not belong to her.

Xie Chaochao chuckled, "Let's go."

Chu Heng took her away, frowned silently and looked in the direction where Liu Fengling left. A trace of indifference flashed in his eyes, as sharp and terrifying as ice in September.

……

Border, military camp.

The candles are lit, and there is singing and dancing.

Women wearing belly-baring tops and long skirts gathered in the lobby, singing and dancing, flattering the eagle-like man in a high position.

The man rested his elbows on his knees, biting the leg of lamb in his hand, his eyes like an eagle, staring wildly at the man in black who was kneeling on the ground and trembling with fear.

The voice was strong, "You said you lost to a woman?"

The man in black trembled, "Yes... We hid very well and were never exposed. I didn't expect that woman to know we were inside from the beginning and use the method of looking for the hairpin to find out. At first... we didn't take it seriously... I didn't expect..."

"Waste is waste, what excuses are there?"

The man shouted so loudly that the music stopped and everyone knelt on the ground.

He raised his head, drank the wine, and continued the music with a fierce look, saying, "Women are nothing strange. I only hate people who use women as shields! The emperor killed my son! Then I will kill him!"

"Bring a few more brothers with you. If you fail again this time, you don't have to come back. Just send a pigeon and end your life."

The man in black kowtowed heavily, "Yes!"

After saying that, he stood up and prepared to leave, but the man called him again, "Wait, ask Heifeng to go with you, and make sure to kill Chu Heng!"

"Yes!"

After the man in black left, the man stuffed the beef into his mouth, put his arm around the maid and started to touch her all over, letting the woman kiss his lips with her limp body, performing a live sex scene.

The red-clad figure flashed by behind the barrier without being seen at all.

……

In order to investigate the truth behind his mother's tragic death, Xie Chaochao spends half a day here every day with Long Bo. After a few visits, he becomes very familiar with the staff.

Long Bo is equivalent to a close bodyguard, a capable person who controls the overall situation. There are two small teams. One team is shadow and will not be dispatched unless it is absolutely necessary. The other team is ordinary personnel who follow him around.

Unfortunately, the mastermind behind the scenes is extremely skilled and there is not a single clue left.

Xie Chaochao reasonably suspected that this person might be the emperor who had the final say. But Long Bo had not told her something, and she really didn't know why the emperor would target an ordinary mother.

Long Bo hesitated again and again, but still said that if Xie Chaochao investigated, he would follow him inside and outside.

Looking at the loyal, 70-year-old Long Bo, Xie Chaochao helped him up and said, "Take good care of yourself. I'll take care of the rest."

Long Bo's eyes were filled with tears. "Okay!"

When he stood up, a small light green tube swung out from his lapel. Xie Chaochao had an inexplicable liking for small things. He reached out to take it and saw that there were seven holes on it. It was a small flute.

Long Bo explained, "This is something unique to the organization, called a bone flute. The Pavilion Master also has one, but we don't know where it is. If the Young Pavilion Master has time, you can go back to the Xie family to search for it. If you still can't find it, I will make one myself and give it to the Young Pavilion Master."

Xie Chaochao couldn't let it go, and looked at him before leaving. "Uncle Long, I hope that one day you can tell me more things. I'm not a child, and I know what to do."

Long Bo's eyes were burning, and after a while he said in a strong voice, "Okay."

Xie Chaochao took Pei'er on the carriage and returned to the general's mansion.

As soon as he entered the yard, he heard Liu Fengling's coquettish call from inside, "Cousin Chu Heng! Come and have a look, this is really good stuff!"

General Chu's powerful voice was persuasive, "It is indeed a good thing. The bow is straight and thick, and feels great. It looks like it is from the south."

"My uncle is right. They are the three buffaloes of Mingfengliang. The beasts in that place are fierce and ferocious, and every part of the animals is a treasure. I lost a lot of money to make them for my cousin. Cousin..."

Chu Heng still refused to accept it, "It's too expensive. I can't accept it without merit."

Knowing that Chu Heng had made up his mind, he could not be changed even by nine bulls. Liu Fengling had no choice but to ask General Chu for help, and shook his arm coquettishly, "Uncle! Uncle!"

General Chu couldn't stand girls' coquetry, so he smiled and said to Chu Heng, "Okay, Heng'er, this is Feng Ling's intention. Besides, the palace ceremony will be held in three days. You might as well go to Beishan and kill a few deer and bring them back to the emperor. Maybe if the emperor is happy, you won't have any obstacles when you go to the border to deal with the drought."

Stumbling block, Su Moqing.

The Emperor asked Chu Heng and Su Moqing to meet him a few days ago, and specifically stated that they should go to the northern border together to deal with the drought and support each other.

Originally, they were ready to set off after preparing fodder and supplies, but Su Moqing used the excuse of a grand ceremony three days later to drag them on.

People in the northern border areas are in dire straits, while people in the capital are living a life of luxury.

Chu Heng spent the whole day in anxiety and uneasiness.
