It is difficult to obey the order of the common people

Chapter 246.

Huo Rongxiu was restless.

She was in the same room as Mr. Chu Lan, even though she was pretending to be a man, but once the news got out, her boudoir reputation would be ruined.

Even if Huo Rongxiu is not afraid of the sky and the earth, and disdains the prejudices of the world, it does not mean that she is willing to be notorious.

Didn't she have a big mistake in affecting the Huo family's daughter's marriage proposal?

Therefore, Huo Rongxiu was grinning, feeling uncomfortable.

Mr. Chu Lan didn't know if he could see Huo Rongxiu's uneasiness, so he waved away all the people in the private room, and only let the servants come over to serve.

Mr. Chu Lan pointed to the fruit plate on the desk, "These fruits have just been shipped, they are very fresh, let's eat them."

"……Oh, thanks."

Huo Rongxiu carefully scooped up a piece of watermelon and put it in his mouth. Some kind of ingredients were sprinkled on the watermelon. It tasted crisp and refreshing, sweet and flavorful.

Huo Rongxiu likes this sweet and sour watermelon very much, "It's really rare to have fresh watermelon in this season, and the watermelon is sprinkled with rare ingredients. I don't feel too full after eating it, but I still feel unsatisfied."

When it comes to food, Huo Rongxiu is a very knowledgeable connoisseur.

Seeing that Huo Rongxiu was eating happily, Mr. Chu Lan couldn't help but soften his face, "You can eat more if you like. Xiaoxianglou's fruit is the most unique, and the ingredients used in it are unique. I invite you to eat to let you enjoy yourself."

The two had never known each other before, but they were so forthright. If Huo Rongxiu hadn't already known the identity of the other party, he might have been moved to tears by the other party's generosity.

Huo Rongxiu gently wiped the juice overflowing from the corners of his mouth, and smiled, "Young Master, you are being polite. I am just an ordinary person. When I meet you for the first time, I should not be so generous."

If it was a woman dressed up, Huo Rongxiu probably suspected that the other party was just for sex.

But she was wearing a beggar's outfit, most people wouldn't fall in love with a little beggar at first sight.

Huo Rongxiu ruled out this idea, but Chu Lan said straight to the point: "If I remember correctly, it seems that this is not the first time we have met."

As soon as these words came out, the elegant room was silent.

Breathing a little faster, Huo Rongxiu took a deep breath, "My lord, it's not funny at all to make such a joke."

She didn't think that Mr. Chu Lan would have an impression of a little girl whom she had never met in person.

"Don't believe it?"

Master Chu Lan's smile faded away, "Mr. Shen Huo Chuxiong is your father, Ke Shuyu is your mother, your cousin is Princess Xiangli Ji Shaoyuan, and your future cousin-in-law is General Xiao Yue."

After telling all the relatives, Mr. Chu Lan found that Huo Rongxiu, who was originally expressionless, suddenly became vigilant.

Well, the other party is very concerned about his relatives, and he is stepping on her tail by talking about relatives.

"Miss Huo, you don't have to be wary of me. I have no bad intentions for you. "

Mr. Chu Lan said.

Have no bad intentions?

Huo Rongxiu frowned, "I'm not a three-year-old."

Since the other party revealed her true identity in a single word, she didn't need to cover it up so as not to be ridiculous.

Seeing Huo Rongxiu being open and honest, but still treating him indifferently, for some reason, Mr. Chu Lan was a little depressed.

"Am I a bad guy?" Mr. Chu Lan's eyelashes drooped slightly, casting a shadow.

This man is romantic and chic, and his smile is very attractive to women, but he is also the most ruthless.

Passionate is always ruthless, Huo Rongxiu thought to herself.

"I think, you should know that you and I are not the same way."

After getting rid of the initial goodwill, Huo Rongxiu showed an unprecedented calmness and indifference.

None of the descendants of the Dongping County government is a coward.

When Mr. Chu Lan heard this, he nodded, "I am from the Jianghu, and you are a lady from the official family. It seems that you are not from the same way. However, I have a little relationship with your cousin-in-law."

Bei Xiao Nan Chu, this name resounding in the memory of a generation, once ran through Chu Lan's life for a long time.

Perhaps, no one else knows how much of Chu Lan's hatred for Xiao Yue is the hatred of the country and the family.

Huo Rongxiu smiled when she heard that, her cousin-in-law was an orphan, without father or mother, he was raised and educated by the general of Wuming City since he was a child, and he was able to grow up safely.Xiao Yue is the pride of the Great General of Wuming City. "

Everyone knows about Xiao Yue's background.

Huo Rongxiu admired Xiao Yue, and Huo Rongxiu did all his homework in advance to get to know him.

There are different opinions on who are Xiao Yue's biological parents, Huo Rongxiu doesn't care, anyway, there is only one parent of Xiao Yue, and that is the Great General of Wuming City.

No matter how harsh and unkind Wu Mingcheng treated Xiao Yue, he finally raised Xiao Yue and gave him food and clothing.

After hearing Huo Rongxiu talk about the name of Wuming City, Mr. Chu Lan's expression changed, "He just happened to pick up Xiao Yue and separated me from brother Xiao Yue for several years."

Are Xiao Yue and Chu Lan brothers?
Huo Rongxiu was shocked by this truth. Xiao Yue, who has no father and no mother, when did he have another brother?
Huo Rongxiu said: "You also know that my cousin's husband is a son-in-law and also a general of Daxing. If you are chasing relatives, be careful of your own head."

There is a difference between officials and people. Once someone jumps out and misidentifies relatives, he will be flogged sixty times according to the laws of Daxing, and then exiled to Northwest Lingnan and other places.

Although Mr. Chu Lan is from Jianghu, in the final analysis, he is also a subject of Daxing. If he talks nonsense about his relationship with Xiao Yue, what awaits him is naturally the punishment of the law.

Mr. Chu Lan smiled, "How dare I misidentify relatives? If you don't believe me, you can ask your cousin after you go back to see if she knows Xiao Yue's past and background."

In addition to being a son-in-law in the royal family, he must have a clean background and a descendant of a family, and another point is that he must have a clear history.

In a sense, it is very taboo for the emperor to become a son-in-law like Xiao Yue whose background is unclear.

Mr. Chu Lan swears, he is not afraid of investigation at all, could it be that he is really Xiao Yue's brother?
"Speaking of which, I'm still Xiao Yue's younger brother." Chu Lan continued, "Xiao Yue's father is the same person as mine, but his mother is not the same person. His mother is just a servant with no name or distinction." , my mother is the second wife my father is marrying."

Bo Ke treated Xiao Yue kindly with a cold face and a cold heart. After he was born, not only was he abandoned by his mother, but even his father didn't want him.

In the winter, a baby was drifting around. Fortunately, some kind-hearted people rescued him and gave him a mouthful of food.

However, Xiao Yue is an orphan, or a wandering orphan, destined to be treated coldly.

When he was punished by his master to kneel outside again, Xiao Yue finally couldn't hold on anymore and fainted.

At that time, he encountered a turning point in his life - Wu Mingcheng.

Seeing that Xiao Yue was pitiful, Wu Mingcheng felt a little sympathetic, and took the initiative to take him home to raise him.

Only then did the heroic general Xiao Yue come into being.Otherwise, Xiao Yue would have been smashed to pieces.

Huo Rongxiu didn't know about the past, but it didn't hinder her judgment, "If that's the case, you and your cousin-in-law are just superficial brothers. Xiao Yue was adopted by the general of Wuming City, which means that your father doesn't want him at all. If you get separated Yes, I will look for him if I want to, but after so many years, no one came to look for Xiao Yue. It can be seen that Xiao Yue and the young master do not have a deep brotherhood. Since they have no feelings, why do they call themselves brothers? Unless, Mr. Chu Lan wants to get close to me, or in other words, find an opportunity to get close to Xiao Yue and do something."

Not only did Xiao Yue and Chu Lan have no feelings, but they were also in the same situation.

Mr. Chu Lan was startled, as if he didn't expect the young lady of the Huo family to tell the truth, and then smiled, "Miss Huo is really smart and eloquent."

Xiao Yue's father is not important anymore, what is important is that from the very beginning, Mr. Chu Lan regarded Xiao Yue as the chief culprit who caused the ruin of his family.

Of course, he was not interested in apologizing for his father's romantic debts, after all, it was his father's good deed, and it was not he who caused Xiao Yue to be displaced.

Huo Rongxiu shook his head, "It's not that I'm smart, but that's the truth. Mr. Chu, Xiao Yue is my cousin-in-law. No matter what you want to do with him, please remember that I will never stand idly by. Probably, Chu Mr. Lan deliberately appeared in front of me, he must have aimed at my identity."

Now, Huo Rongxiu understood that Chu Lan was uneasy and kind.

Xiao Yue was his enemy, and he wanted revenge.

"Miss Huo, do you know what you are talking about?"

Mr. Chu Lan's smile was not a smile.

Come here and want to leave?funny!

Huo Rongxiu's face straightened, "I just said this clearly and clearly. Mr. Chu Lan, your conspiracy will not succeed. Everything you have done against the general is unpopular of."

"What a daring little girl! Come and arrest her, I want to see if Xiao Yue is furious."

Mr. Chu Lan didn't want to hear Huo Rongxiu continue talking, so he ordered her to be detained.

"I think who dares?"

The door was kicked open, and a group of guards with solemn faces and uniform footsteps held sabers and blocked the private room.

And behind this group of guards came out a beautiful young girl, smiling and smiling, she was looking at Mr. Chu Lan at this moment.

"Princess Xiangli, welcome here."

Young Master Chu Lan's neck was immediately held by someone with a sword. It looked very dangerous, as long as he got close, blood would splatter everywhere.

Ji Shaoyuan in red clothes smiled, "Master Chu Lan, are you interested in my cousin?"

"It's not that I'm interested, I just want to invite her to eat and chat."

Mr. Chu Lan lied without blushing.

Anyway, when Ji Shaoyuan came, he didn't see anything, so of course he can talk nonsense.

Ji Shaoyuan rubbed his chin, "This princess said that whoever dares to bully my relatives will be my enemy. Mr. Chu Lan, there are rules in the world. This is the capital, and we must abide by the rules of the capital. This princess suspects you I intend to murder the emperor, and I will throw you into the sky prison, do you have any objections?"

Once in prison, it is difficult to get out.

Mr. Chu Lan's usual good smile disappeared without a trace, "Princess Xiangli, I did not murder the emperor. You must pay attention to evidence when you speak."

What is the evidence?
Just the words of those in power.
