Not long after the emperor woke up, the aristocratic family got the news—this time, there were countless people staring at the movement of Xuanshi Hall, the emperor summoned the imperial physician after waking up and made a lot of noise, and the news in the palace naturally spread quickly.

When the news reached the ears of the aristocratic family, many people were so angry that they smashed the teacups, but they didn't know that the emperor's awakening was just the beginning.

Wen Fei herself would seem timid when dealing with the overall situation, but with the emperor's order, she acted vigorously and resolutely.She left the Xuanshi Palace, and brought hundreds of feathers out of the palace. When everyone was still guessing what she wanted to do, she had already led people to the Lu Mansion with a clear goal.Then they quickly escorted hundreds of people from the Lu family, old and young, to Tingwei Temple.

This is the first time Wen Fei has arrested so many people. Even if he arrested people in the past, he only arrested those who committed crimes or disrespected the emperor's order, and never affected his family.This time she arrested the entire Lu family, which shocked many people.

Except for the head of the Lu family, no one is a fool. The whole family of the Lu family will be imprisoned at this time, which is obviously related to the emperor's awakening.For example, Patriarch Wu and others know more, and it is more difficult to calm down.

Soon, several Patriarchs who had good relations with the Lu family gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

Patriarch Lu is not a smart person, but he also knows that the matter of witchcraft is very important, so he has never told anyone about it.Naturally, they don't know how many families the Lu family has made friends with at this moment, so they are still gathering together at this time to discuss how to save the Lu family - there is no way, it's not because they have deep feelings, but the daughter in the family married to the Lu family, or Marrying Lu's wife, that's all I have to do.

Several people got together to discuss and guessed that the head of the Lu family might have poisoned the emperor with his contacts in the palace, but unfortunately he failed to poison him to death, and now the emperor who has awakened has settled the score.

This is a felony, and no matter how Lu's crimes are, in short, if he is arrested, it is indisputable.

After discussing with the few people, they felt that it was not easy to get people out with the emperor's temper, and if they were not careful, they might even hurt themselves.Therefore, everyone reached a consensus and finally decided to abandon Patriarch Lu as the culprit, and then try their best to save the others—from the standpoint of family continuation, anyone can be abandoned, including Patriarch!

However, their decision to abandon the head of the Lu family and keep the Lu family was just their wishful thinking.The emperor didn't think so, he even felt that a mere Lu family was not enough, and further implicated more people.

In just a few days, the city of Chang'an was full of turmoil, and Lu's in-laws were imprisoned one after another.

The few patriarchs who discussed saving people were also imprisoned within two days, and the newly built prison in Tingwei Temple was already full of people before it was completed.Several patriarchs who were arrested were held in the same cell, and it was only then that they realized that they were actually involved in a major case of witchcraft.At this time, thinking about what I have done recently, it is really ruined to the point where my intestines are green.

I knew Patriarch Lu was stupid, but I didn't expect him to be so stupid. He dared not even tell about witchcraft, and he didn't tell anyone.If they had known that the Lu family was involved in witchcraft, they would not have thought about saving people.

What marriage?What wife and daughter-in-law?They can all be given up!

It's a pity that it was too late when they found out. Most of the people who were imprisoned didn't know this until after they were in prison.When Habayashi arrested people, he just did his hands, and didn't reveal a single extra word.So people who don't know think that it's just ordinary involvement, and they will try their best to save people, and then they will be involved again. In a short period of time, I don't know how many people have been coerced into the game.

The situation in the court suddenly became tense, and when it was almost on the verge of breaking out, the cells in Tingwei Temple were completely overcrowded.Only then did Wen Fei reveal the witchcraft under the emperor's signal.

As for the channel of disclosure, it was naturally the Chu family.

************************************************** ***************

The Lu family's situation is different, it was the news that the Chu family disclosed to Wen Fei, but they never thought that the other party would dare to practice witchcraft.What's more, he didn't expect Patriarch Lu to be so bighearted that he would act in his own home, so that he was caught straight.

At first, the Chu family thought the same as everyone else, thinking that the Lu family had poisoned the emperor, and thus affected the whole family.

But as time went on, things snowballed and they realized something was wrong.Anyone who was more alert and vigilant did not dare to intervene in the affairs of the Lu family at this time, and in turn asked the Chu family for news—no way, who let the beauty trick of the girl from the Chu family hook up with Marquis Wuwei? Habayashi is arresting people everywhere, and he is the emperor's confidant, so he must know something.

The Chu family also wanted to know the inside story, and they surrendered to the emperor in private, so they couldn't really stay out of it at this time.As a matter of course, Chu Xi once again appeared in front of Wen Fei under the pretense of public affairs for personal gain...

In summer, the weather is gradually getting hotter, and it is not easy to catch people around wearing armor.

One day Wen Fei passed by Mingxiangju on horseback, she was sweating profusely when a loquat was thrown at her unexpectedly.She raised her hand to catch it, and then looked up, who was the one who was leaning against the window of Mingxiang House and throwing fruit at her if it wasn't Chu Xi?

Wen Fei's eyes lit up immediately, just as the emperor signaled that she was almost done arresting people, and she could take a little leisure time.Therefore, regardless of whether anyone saw it, she immediately took the accompanying Yulin into Mingxiangju, and then sent everyone downstairs to drink tea to quench their thirst, while she herself ran up the second floor to the private room where Chu Xi was.

The two haven't seen each other for many days, Wen Fei's eyebrows and eyes are slightly curved when he sees Chu Xi when he enters the door.But she held back her smile, tossing the apricot-yellow loquat lightly up and down in her hands, her brows slightly raised: "I haven't seen you for a long time, and as soon as I met Ah Chu, he hit me with fruit. Is this trying to murder my husband?!"

Chu Xi had just poured herbal tea in his hand and planned to pass it to her to relieve the heat, when he heard this, his movements stopped, and the roots of his ears were slightly red.However, her face was calm. After putting down the teacup in her hand, she slenderly pointed at the table: "Murder? Then I think a mere loquat is too small, and I should just throw this down to hit you." After a pause, he leaned forward again, sticking to Wen Fei's ear and said, "Besides, what kind of husband are you?"

At this time, the two were very close, and while speaking, the breath sprayed on Wen Fei's ears, as if a feather swept gently across her heart.There were not many traces left, but it tickled her heart, which also made her ears turn red quickly, surpassing Chu Xi in a moment.

Wen Fei resisted the urge to rub her ears, a little suspicious that Chu Xi did it on purpose.But for such intimacy, she didn't reject it, she smiled and rounded things up: "Then, murdering one's own wife is not okay."

After she finished speaking, she looked at what Chu Xi had pointed before, and then fell silent for a moment——I saw a head-sized melon on the desk, and the dark green ripples on the green melon rind circled and circled , what is it if it’s not cold melon?Then his thoughts turned and he recalled the past, when they first met, Chu Xi hid on the second floor of the restaurant and threw a cold melon at her!

Thinking of this, Wen Fei's eyes on Chu Xi suddenly changed, with horror and accusation.

Chu Xi knew that she was putting on airs on purpose, but she still couldn't hold back and patted her on the head: "What are you thinking, that cold melon was prepared by me to cool you off, you really think I'm going to hit you?! "

Wen Fei was not annoyed at being slapped on the head, and flirted with Chu Xi a few more times before stepping up to pick up the watermelon and weighing it.It was still a little cold in the hand, obviously it had just been chilled, and eating it at this time was just a way to cool off the heat.So she was not polite, and picked up the short knife prepared by the side and cut the watermelon, and then each of them ate half of it with a spoon.

After eating the cold and sweet watermelon, the heat dissipated a lot, and then Wen Fei got down to business: "Now that the limelight is on the rise, Ah Chu came to look for me at this time, but because of the Lu family's case?"

There is no need to be polite between the two of them, Chu Xi also cut straight to the point: "Exactly, there is a lot of turmoil in Chang'an now, so they asked me to ask for an accurate answer."

Wen Fei first said something serious, but when Chu Xi really asked her, she didn't know what to do.Wiping off the watermelon juice stained on her fingertips, she stretched out her fingers and tapped her cheeks, and raised her head slightly as if pretending to be a gesture: "Since I'm asking for news, how can I not pay some price? How about this, just give me a kiss, I'll tell you."

Seeing her childish look, Chu Xi couldn't laugh or cry.She also didn't obey Wen Fei's "threat", she poked her cheek with her index finger and pushed her away: "Then I won't listen, just tell people that you don't know either."

Wen Fei was immediately discouraged, and dug out a few more spoonfuls of watermelon and stuffed them into his mouth, eating until his cheeks bulged.

Seeing this, Chu Xi couldn't hold back her itchy hands, and poked her a couple more times, before Wen Fei told her the whole story with a sad face——a big case like witchcraft is bound to involve a lot of people.Fortunately, Chu's marriage is very strict, and there is no in-law relationship with Lu's, so as long as the boundaries are drawn, the impact will not be great.And taking advantage of the disaster of the family related to the Lu family, the Chu family can just do it, maybe it is an opportunity for them.

While eating the melon, the two were sorting out the situation in Chang'an, and when the half of the watermelon in Wen Fei's hand was finished eating, they had almost explained everything that needed to be said.As for how the Chu family seized this opportunity, they don't need to worry about it.

After tidying up and wiping his hands, Wen Fei tilted his head and looked at Chu Xi with his chin in one hand, and finally couldn't hold back a sigh.

Chu Xi only ate half of the melon, and he couldn't eat any more. He just put down his spoon when he heard a sigh.She wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and then asked, "Didn't you say that everything went well? It's all right. Why are you sighing?"

Seeing that she stopped eating, Wen Fei simply leaned over and put his head on her shoulder: "It's very good. The family is not monolithic. Your Majesty can suppress a lot of people by grabbing the Lu family. Others will see it if they are strong." Fear of compromising. Your Majesty has saved a lot of effort with such a stroke of genius...Everything is fine, but it is not so good for you and me, and our marriage seems to be far away."

Speaking of the latter, Wen Fei's tone became mournful—the agreed to push Chu Xi out to practice beauty tricks?Now the family behind the scenes is about to fall apart. If there is no one to push her, it will be difficult for her to marry a wife.

Chu Xi didn't expect her to say this, raised her hand to touch her cheek, and comforted her: "It's okay, leave it to me."

Wen Fei was still leaning on Chu Xi's body, but Wen Yan sat up straight suddenly, looking at her with bright eyes: "What are you going to do?"

Chu Xi didn't explain, just kissed Wen Fei on the cheek, and then pushed him out of the private room.

The author has something to say: Chu Xi (dismissed): The kiss you want is given to you, and you can go.

Wen Fei (picking the door frame): No, I don't want a kiss, I want a wife...
