After speaking, he will go forward to push Zhao Liren's wheelchair.Chen Tingyue also stood up, raising her foot to leave.

Xiao Ru was in a hurry, "Your Highness! Your Highness! Don't rush away! You listen to my minister first..." As he spoke, he hurriedly grabbed Zhao Liren's wheelchair and blocked Zhao Liren's way.

Zhao Liren sneered, his eyes full of impatience, "You don't know anything, just listen to what you say? Listen to your poems right? Or listen to you playing the piano?" After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xiao Ruzhen to answer, Wei Wei Raising his hand, Xie Yang behind him pushed Zhao Liren out.

"Your Highness!" Xiao Ruxian shouted hastily.But Zhao Liren didn't stop at all.Xiao Ru was helpless, so he had to say loudly: "I know where this medicine comes from!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Liren stopped in his tracks and signaled Xie Yang to turn back, "Oh? So Master Xiao knew about it. Then why did he say he didn't know just now?"

Xiao Ru was troubled, "Old minister...this medicine came from the capital. This is all I can say...others...don't know anything... "

Zhao Liren glanced at him coldly, turned around and left, the moment he stepped out of the door, his voice reached Xiao Rujian's ears, "Since Mr. Xiao is confident, see you at the Jinluan Hall." After the words settled down, Zhao Liren and others have gone far away.

"Your Highness! Your Highness..." Xiao Ru rolled behind him and called a few times anxiously, but Zhao Liren turned a deaf ear to him.

After Zhao Liren turned and left, the housekeeper of the Xiao family who was guarding the door hurried forward and helped him up.

After kneeling for a while, Xiao Ruxian's legs were already numb, and he stood up with some difficulty with Steward Xiao's hand.The butler hastily helped him onto the chair and finished.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Xiao Ru took a deep breath, "I'm really old, I can't even kneel for a while."

"My lord, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left angrily, what should we do?" The housekeeper kept guarding the door, listening sincerely.In fact, he has always known these things. After all, there are many things that Xiao Ruzhen could not do by himself.

Seeing the matter revealed now, it is unavoidable to feel fear and uneasiness in my heart, and asked with a bitter face full of hesitation.

Xiao Ru shook his head, but did not speak.

Seeing this, the housekeeper became more and more flustered, he didn't care to pour tea for Xiao Ru, and said in his mouth: "It's over, it's over, this matter is bound to become big, now the crown prince has blamed our house, how can this be? Okay?" As he spoke, he felt that the road ahead was dark and he was in a panic.

Trembling voice said: "Sir, should we make a plan early? How about sending the two young masters out first, and then bring them back when the form is clear?"

Seeing that he was so terrified, Xiao Ru thought about thinking about it for himself, and his heart warmed up a lot, and he comforted him: "Okay, what's the proper way to be in a panic? Speaking out will only make people laugh, don't worry, don't make trouble. big."

"My lord." The steward said bitterly, "Now that we have offended His Highness the Crown Prince, he will definitely not let it go. How can it be easy for us if we don't get what he wants?"

Xiao Ruxian smiled slyly, and hammered his already numb legs, "Just put your heart in your stomach, since I said you won't make trouble, you won't make trouble."

The butler was taken aback. He really didn't know where his master had such confidence. He wanted to ask, but he didn't dare to ask.There are some things that the master does not say, so he cannot know.He has been on the job for so many years, and he still knows this truth.

Therefore, no matter how uneasy and doubtful my heart is, I can only endure it.

Xiao Ruzhen saw his expression, but he didn't say anything, he didn't say anything to Zhao Liren, let alone say anything to a housekeeper.There are some things, no matter how well he knows it, he can't show it to the face.

After a while, Xiao Ru put down the hand that had been beating his legs, and reached for the teacup on the table, but just as he picked it up, he found that it was empty, so he put down the teacup helplessly, and ordered: "Don't stick around here, pour it Tea."

"Yes." The butler hurried to the side, picked up the silver teapot, and poured a cup of tea for Xiaoru.After drinking the tea, Xiao Ruxian felt a little better.

Can't help sighing: people, it's too old to be dissatisfied.

Besides, when Zhao Liren and the others left the Xiao residence and got into the carriage, Zhao Liren's face was always grim.Chen Tingyue sighed and patted him lightly.

Zhao Liren stared at him, and then whispered after a while: "I'm sorry."

Chen Tingyue smiled softly, "What do you mean? When did we have such a relationship? Besides, when did you feel sorry for me?"

Zhao Liren shook his head, speechless.

Chen Tingyue sighed, "You have never been sorry to me, it was never your responsibility."

"But you..." Zhao Liren frowned and whispered.

Before he finished speaking, Chen Tingyue interrupted him.

"Little Second!"

Zhao Liren was taken aback, Chen Tingyue hadn't called him mistress for a long time.

"Thank you, I can still sit here because of you." Chen Tingyue said with soft eyes and a faint smile on his face.

"Now that the two of us can sit and chat with each other, it's already very good. In life, nine out of ten people are unsatisfactory. Everything... don't force it."

"..." Zhao Liren felt sour in his heart.

Chen Tingyue said softly: "The antidote matter, let's stop here. What you should think about now is how to deal with the rest. This matter is not big or small, and he has a special status. What are you going to do?" manage?"

Zhao Liren took a deep breath, suppressed the frustration and irritability in his heart, and snorted coldly, "Didn't you just say that, he is not afraid of making trouble, so let's put this matter on the bright side I'll send someone a letter back, and I'll send someone to review it immediately. If he makes me unhappy, then he won't be happy either."

Chen Tingyue frowned, "Aren't you afraid that he will jump over the wall in a hurry?"

"Him?" Zhao Liren snorted coldly, "He's an old fox, the way he pretended just now really looks like that."

"Pretending?" Chen Tingyue paused, his eyes darkened.

"Well, although he looked terrified and flustered just now, his eyes were fixed from beginning to end without a single wave. As the governor of a province, his heart is definitely more than that. After all, we didn't show any evidence. It's impossible to scare him like that with just a name. So there is only one possibility, and that's him pretending."

Why is this so?Is he really not afraid of going to court? "Chen Tingyue said in surprise.

Zhao Liren shook his head with a gloomy expression, "Probably not, if Luo Ba's confession is obtained, even if there is no physical evidence, he cannot be convicted, but other people will inevitably be jealous of him, and it will always be unfavorable to him. As for why he couldn't see the waves in his eyes."

After a pause, Zhao Liren sneered, "It should be the confidence given to him by the people behind the scenes."

"Did he not lie, the medicine really came from the capital?" Chen Tingyue's heart sank, and he clenched his hands unconsciously.He suddenly remembered.

In the previous life, why was there never any news of Qiongxia in the palace.Who can block the news so tightly and hide it from the current prince?Could it be... is it really him...

Chen Tingyue took a deep breath, and pressed the thoughts in her heart to the bottom of her heart.

Zhao Liren pondered for a moment, rubbed his eyebrows, and nodded, "He probably didn't lie to us. First, no one can give him such confidence except the people in Beijing. Second, he It’s clear that we don’t need to say it, but we can’t hold him back for the time being, after all, there is no evidence now, so there is no need for him to deceive us. Therefore, six to seven out of ten of what he said are true.”

"Then why did he only tell us this?" Chen Tingyue frowned slightly, puzzled.

But it's really puzzling.From the beginning to the end, Xiao Rujian only said one thing except "I don't know", that is, "This medicine comes from the capital." 'Since he really didn't want to say it, or didn't dare to say it, why did he say 'Beijing'?

Zhao Liren sneered twice, "Maybe he wants me to go back to Beijing for investigation. Then Gu will do as he wishes." After speaking, he told Xie Yang outside the car to prepare to leave.

Chen Tingyue was taken aback, and was about to speak, when Zhao Liren pressed his hand, and before he could speak, he said, "It's just right, you can go back with me." Chen Tingyue paused for a moment, then nodded.

After finishing speaking, Zhao Liren sighed softly, still unable to stop feeling aggrieved and bored, and didn't want to show Chen Tingyue's face, so he turned his head to the side and opened the curtain beside the carriage to breathe.

This incident really gave him considerable frustration.At the beginning, he swore that Chen Tingyue would not suffer such a great crime again, but now almost half a year has passed, and the final result is that he has walked into a dead end.

He said he was going back to Beijing to investigate, but Zhao Liren couldn't be more clear about it. It's really hard to say whether this matter can be found out.After all, so many years have passed, he has never noticed anything in the capital, and now going back to check it is no different from finding a needle in a haystack.And Xiao Ru found nothing here.

In any case, he is an official ordered by the court, and he must pay attention to evidence in everything.This world indeed belongs to his Zhao family, but it is not something he can do whatever he wants.

Even if he went back and made a fuss, it would only cause Xiao Rulu some trivial problems, and he would not be able to hurt himself.

That's why he was so unwilling and frustrated.

It's not that he hasn't experienced such similar things in these years.He can treat the previous things with a normal heart, but if Chen Tingyue is involved.He couldn't take it anymore.

Nothing, things, or people can compare with Chen Tingyue.He worked hard to get to his current position, never because of wanting to overthrow the clouds, let alone because of imperial power and wealth.

From the beginning to the end, he just wanted to protect this person well.

Protect him and prevent him from suffering any more.

But now, he is useless.

The suffering he has suffered in these years can't go back, the scars on his body, his dilapidated body can't heal, even the poison on his body can't help him.

From the beginning to the end, Xiao Si experienced all kinds of things alone, and he himself, like a joke, did not play any role.

Such a big blow, like a heavy hammer, knocked on his heart that was about to crack.
