The mother showed her hands. "

"Thank you, righteous father."

Qi Chuxiao raised her head, trying to see something in Zhuo Yunzhang's eyes, but Zhuo Yunzhang was no different from the past.

"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

Qi Chuxiao quickly looked away.

"No, where's Nan'er?"

Zhuo Yunzhang sighed and said, "I went out early this morning and caused trouble again, and this kid never let me worry about it all day long. A few days ago, I just had someone dig a secret room, which just came in handy."

"The secret room?"

Qi Chuxiao looked at Zhuo Yunzhang in surprise.

Zhuo Yunzhang pointed in the direction of Jishantang. "Over there, let's go, foster father will take you to have a look."

Zhuo Yunzhang took Qi Chuxiao's hand and walked to the old tree yesterday.

Stretching out his hand and pressing on the eye of the tree next to him, a door opened immediately, which was exactly the secret door that Qi Chuxiao saw last night.

The moment the door was opened, there was indeed a smell of soil, as if it had been newly dug.

"This... Even if my sister is stubborn, she shouldn't be locked up in this kind of place."

Zhuo Yunzhang snorted and said: "Don't speak for her, she rode her horse to the East Street early this morning, and seven or eight people were injured by the horse's hoof. No matter what this kind of wild girl does, it is considered as compensation. Even silver can hardly make up for her fault."

Then he said earnestly: "Although my father is not an official in the court now, he can't allow the people to be trampled like this. Let alone Nan'er, even you, if you do something that hurts the people, your father will There is no mistake in punishment."

Qi Chuxiao's heart felt hot when she heard this, and she hurriedly bowed and said, "Xiao'er dare not, Xiao'er will strictly follow the teachings of her adoptive father and never do anything that harms the common people."

Zhuo Yunzhang patted him on the shoulder and said: "Father knows your temperament, and also knows that you are kind and kind, but this time you can't plead for that girl, if you let her continue to behave mischievously, there will be big troubles." .”

"Yes." Thinking of Zhuo Nan's unruly and domineering temperament, Qi Chuxiao couldn't help but sighed.

Zhuo Yunzhang also sighed: "Do you want to go down and see her?"

"Forget it, I'm afraid I can't help but plead for my sister."

Zhuo Nan is Zhuo Yunzhang's only daughter, even if she really murdered and set fire, it was just a scare.

"Okay, let's go, let's go drink."

Qi Chuxiao breathed a sigh of relief quietly, he must have misunderstood.

When he arrived at the main hall, Zhuo Yunzhang suddenly said: "Xiao'er, you have to be more careful these few days. There were thieves in the mansion last night. Fortunately, the guards of Feng Wang's mansion were here, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. Dare to enter and rob a house at the feet of the Son of Heaven, he simply regards the king's law as nothing, and his heart can be punished."

"Uh... foster father didn't lose anything, did he?"

Zhuo Yunzhang thought for a while and said, "Isn't that the case, why? Was it stolen from another house?"

Qi Chuxiao pursed her lips and said, "I haven't officially returned to the government office in the past few days, so I haven't heard of it for the time being."

"That's good, and Liu Shiwei's martial arts is so strong that he beat the two thieves away, which can be regarded as a deterrent. I don't think they will come again."

Qi Chuxiao took a sip of wine in embarrassment.

"Well, the child thinks the same way."

The words made Qi Chuxiao's doubts disappear, but she thought about Shen Su again in her heart.

What was he looking for in his adoptive father's house?

Because I had something on my mind, I became a little drunk after drinking a few cups. I looked at the sky and saw that it was already past noon, so I put down my cup and said: "My child has something to do later, so I won't drink today."

Zhuo Yunzhang pulled him and said, "I wanted to have a few drinks with you for my father last time, but Nan'er interrupted the situation. Now that you haven't officially returned to the six doors, what else can you do? Anyway, your friend is not here. , don’t go back tonight.”

Qi Chuxiao suddenly thought of the scene of Shen Su standing with the man in black robe again, and her heart became stuffy again.

He thought to himself, anyway, he has found a partner, so what is he going back to do, why not just stay here for a day.

Then he nodded and said: "That's fine, that child would rather be respectful than obedient."

Zhuo Yunzhang laughed happily. "Okay, as a father, you know that your heart is towards me. Come on, let's drink."

A table of wine and food was reheated several times, until it was completely dark, Qi Chuxiao stood up staggeringly.

Zhuo Yunzhang stretched out his hand to support him, and asked with concern: "Xiao'er, are you drunk, as a father, I will help you in to rest."

Qi Chuxiao nodded, followed Zhuo Yunzhang into the inner room unsteadily.

I just felt that I was put on the pillow, and then I lost consciousness.

Zhuo Yunzhang waved his hand, signaling the servant girl to remove the food and drink, but he himself stood by the bed and did not leave.

He stared at Qi Chuxiao intently, joy, greed, emotion, several emotions were intertwined, which made the drunken gaze even more terrifying and strange.

He couldn't help but walked to the bed step by step, and was about to reach out, when he heard someone behind him shout: "Father."

The author has something to say:

Thanks to the little friends who are still reading, the update time is a little late these days, try to keep the daily update, what about you~

50. If you want to die, die far away

Seeing some ink, Zhuo Yunzhang's face instantly sank.

"What are you doing here, isn't it to let you leave the Zhuo family temporarily?"

Dianmo glanced at Qi Chuxiao who was lying on the bed, feeling extremely jealous.

They are both Zhuo Yunzhang's adoptive sons, why can he lie on his adoptive father's bed when he is drunk, and no one will ask him a question even if he dies drunk.

The hatred in his eyes disappeared in a flash, and he asked respectfully: "Father, the person who fought with the child last night is probably Qi Chuxiao, don't you wonder why he came here in the middle of the night?"

"You read it wrong, Xiao'er won't do that kind of thing."

Zhuo Yunzhang eased his tone, turned around and said: "Yingzhou and his party, you have lost a lot of good players. The adoptive father knows that you feel uncomfortable, and wanted you to stay here for a few more days, but you also saw it yesterday, so it is inevitable that you will be punished." I got the handle, my father has prepared a mansion for you in the capital, you should go and live there for a few days."

Dianmo gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart, but his mouth was still extremely respectful: "What about the Bai family? Shen Su has already entered the capital, and I also discovered a very interesting thing. One of the guards around me knew each other, and they went to the prison together today."

"Oh?"

Zhuo Yunzhang's complexion changed slightly. "Did you see it with your own eyes?"

"Yes."

Last night, Dian Mo showed up at Zhuo's Mansion, and was reprimanded by Zhuo Yunzhang. He was annoyed, and was about to kill a few people to vent his anger, but happened to see Shen Su.

Zhuo Yunzhang remembered that familiar face again, and immediately frowned.

He said to himself, "Where did this man surnamed Shen come from?"

"It is said that he is from Cangzhou and is a cloth merchant."

"How can a mere cloth merchant enter the prison."

Zhuo Yunzhang snorted, and said with a loving face: "I have to go to this matter and send a few people to Cangzhou to investigate. It would be best to catch someone close to him."

Hearing him call "my son", Dianmo's expression softened, and he clasped his fists and said, "Father, don't worry, as long as there is something related to Shen Su, the children will be arrested and brought to the capital."

"it is good."

Zhuo Yunzhang patted him, then asked: "How is your injury?"

Seeing that he cared about him so much, the resentment in Dianmo's heart disappeared immediately.

He said gratefully: "Thank you foster father for your concern, it's much better now."

"That's fine, just be careful."

"Ah."

Dianmo nodded, and then exited the inner room.

Zhuo Yunzhang looked at the door with an uncertain expression on his face.

After a long time, he said to the door: "Qin Huai is always a ticking bomb, you can throw it away."

"Yes."

A wind-like sound came from outside the door, and it was silent for a while.

Zhuo Yunzhang turned around and glanced at Qi Chuxiao, then walked out in a hurry.

"Master, how long do you want to keep Nan'er in prison?"

A woman in a gray monk's robe stood calmly at the door.

Even though the wind and frost of the years have carved marks on her face, it is not difficult to see that this person was a first-class beauty when she was young.

"How did you come."

Zhuo Yunzhang's face darkened.

Mrs. Zhuo said with a cold face: "I heard that you arrested Nan'er. As a mother, how can I not come to ask? I also hope that the master will show his noble hand and release Nan'er as soon as possible."

Zhuo Yunzhang's expression was equally indifferent, he flicked his sleeves and said, "I've made my own decision on this matter, if you want to see her, come back tomorrow."

Mrs. Zhuo turned sideways, blocking his way.

He said sharply: "Zhuo Yunzhang, Nan'er doesn't know anything. She is innocent. I have been eating vegetarian food and praying to Buddha at Zhuo's house for more than ten years. Could it be that I can't even keep my daughter safe?"

Zhuo Yunzhang's eyes flickered with anger, and he reached out to pinch her chin.

"Are you trying to settle accounts with me? I have raised your daughter for more than ten years in vain. Can't I lock her up for a day, Shen Yunning, I have given you enough, don't be ignorant."

Mrs. Zhuo took a step back after being shoved, and said bitterly: "No one is begging you to raise him. Don't think I don't know what you are thinking."

"Enough, if you dare to say one more word, what you will see tomorrow will be your daughter's corpse."

Zhuo Yunzhang yelled angrily, then flung his sleeves and left.

Mrs. Zhuo squeezed her lips tightly, and a line of tears flowed from the corner of her eyes...

When the two were arguing, Qi Chuxiao woke up in a daze.

His internal energy is very strong, even if he falls asleep, his internal energy will automatically operate, this little alcoholic energy will naturally not make him drunk for too long.

It's just that my mind is not very bright, and I didn't understand what the two were arguing for a while, so I staggered out.

When Mrs. Zhuo saw him, she quickly wiped away her tears.

Qi Chuxiao was startled.

"Mother-in-law, what's the matter with you?"

For Mrs. Zhuo, he didn't see many times, but
