Chapter 98
"The servant knows."

Lan Zi originally wanted to say a few words for Yu Qingqing, but seeing Wei Yu's cold expression, he swallowed it back.

Wei Yu glanced at Yu Qingqing, shook off his official uniform, and walked away.

Xiaoyue looked at his receding back with indifferent eyes, then moved closer to Yu Qingqing, and said softly, "Sister Qingqing, Master Hou may be short of breath for a while, you don't have to take it to heart."

"Also... You know that comic books are taboo for Lord Hou."

"He was just angry and didn't punish you. It seems... Lord Hou really cares about you."

These words are nothing to hear at first, but there is a bit of jealousy when I hear them again.

It's just that Yu Qingqing, who was always angry, couldn't hear it.

She straightened up, her eyes were red, and she replied with a half smile, "Miss Xiaoyue, there is no need to be so polite between you and me, I know you are more pleased with Lord Hou."

"To be honest, you two are a perfect match when you stand together, you are both talented and beautiful."

"I wish you happiness." He said and turned to leave.

The moment he turned around, tears flowed down his face.

Yuanyuan scratched her head, and said doubtfully, "Miss Yue, what does she mean by these words?"

"Is your brain stimulated?"

"Let her go." The corner of Xiaoyue's mouth twitched, and she should have gained something after being tired all morning.

She raised her hand and looked at the wound on her index finger, with a somewhat unpredictable expression between her eyebrows.

Yu Qingqing didn't quicken her pace, and her heart calmed down.

It's just that there is no dazzling light in the eyes, and the whole person is lifeless.

She thought to herself, Yu Qingqing, you shouldn't be tempted.

What did you say when you grow up?Like you, want to be with you forever?
A man's mouth, a liar.

What are you talking about?Doing business is the last word.

Wei Yu, if you dare to yell at me today, I will make you never see me again, hmph...

After a while of mental activity, Yu Qingqing wiped away the tears of grievance, and went straight to Mofengyuan.

At the moment of entering the door, she turned sideways and asked Lan Zi and Qiu Jin to say, "I was too tired last night, I'll go to sleep first, call me in three hours, and then...prepare a table of good food and wine."

The old lady is full and full, so she can run away.

What's the matter with this girl?Just now I was so angry and crying.

Now she seemed to be a different person again, she asked worriedly, "Girl, are you alright?"

"Actually, Lord Hou was also short-tempered for a while, so you really shouldn't read too many comic books."

Is this an excuse for the Master?

As soon as Yu Qingqing mentioned the comic book, she became even more angry, thinking it was ordinary.

I didn't expect the content to be more exciting, what threesome?Foursome?

The picture was so lifelike... definitely neither fish nor fowl.

That normal person would read that kind of book, probably everyone in the Hou Mansion thinks she is abnormal now, right?
She smiled indifferently, and replied, "I understand, but comic books are not the reason for my anger."

"What's the matter? Because of Miss Xiaoyue?" Lanzi asked, staring at her motionless.

Forget it, why explain so much?

She waved her hand, and said with a gloomy face, "You don't understand even after talking about it, so hurry up and get ready."

"Also... Don't let Lord Hou know that we have been to the West City."

"Don't worry, girl, the servant understands."

Yu Qingqing turned around and entered the room, closed the door, lay quietly on the couch, pouted, lost in thought.

Then he said to himself, "He hesitated, he hesitated..."

"You're so angry, why did he hesitate when Xiaoyue asked that sentence?"

"He has Xiaoyue in his heart?" Yu Qingqing couldn't imagine that it was normal for ancient people to have three wives and four concubines, not to mention that he was Lord Marquis.

"Could it be that he wants to..." The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, her little hand was tightly gripped, it seemed that she couldn't stay in this Hou's mansion any longer.

have to go.

Thinking about it, sleepiness struck, thick eyelids covered those dark and watery eyeballs, and fell asleep on the couch.

Royal Palace.

Inside the imperial study.

The two men sat on the floor near the window sill, looking at the chessboard in front of them.

A man was elegant and dignified, and smiled lightly, "Wei Qing, what's on your mind today?"

Men wear helmets with silver wreath tassels.

The charming broken golden eyes completed the crescent shape, the eyelashes were long and slightly curled, and the lips were pursed into a nice arc.

The man was the Great Yan Emperor Helian Xiao.

"Why do you see that?" The man in an official uniform gently dropped the black chess piece in his hand, with endless coldness on his face.

Helian Xiao Jian raised his eyebrows, and said with thin lips, "It's all written on his face, do you want to find a mirror for Wei Qing?"

"Your Majesty was joking, it's just a matter of lock and key." Wei Yu said it calmly, but when he thought of Yu Qingqing's angry appearance in the morning.

I am always worried.

She is a clever little girl, maybe she is really curious about the content of the comic book.

Isn't Ben Hou too radical?

He frowned, and put down another black chess piece, but Helian Xiao stopped him, and said in a slightly magnetic voice, "Wei Qing, you lost."

"Your Majesty, don't blame me, my humble minister is not good at chess."

Helian Xiao smiled coldly, "I don't feel comfortable winning, Wei Qing is in Cao Ying's heart."

"Could it be the same as this gentleman, worrying about the common people in the world and those women in the harem who are fighting each other all day long?"

"There are three thousand beauties in the harem of the Holy Majesty, and the humble minister can't match them." Wei Yu said respectfully, with a serious expression.

Knowing that the Holy Spirit is passed on today is not as simple as playing chess and teasing him.

But at this time, I miss the little girl in the mansion very much.

I don't know if she is still in a mood?Have you had lunch yet?
Straight to the point, bowed his head to support the salute and said, "I don't know the Holy Majesty, leaving the minister alone, what is the so-called?"

Helian Xiao slowly put the chess pieces into the chess box.

There was a crackling sound, as if it was hitting his noble soul.

He raised his head, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, "We really can't hide anything from Wei Qing, but...Wei Qing seems a little anxious today?"

"Your Majesty, don't blame it, it's just some locks in the house." He hesitated a little on the word locks.

The black eyes flickered several times.

Helian Xiao held back his smile, others don't know Wei Yu, so why doesn't he know him?

When he, Wei Yu, was in the capital, he was notoriously playful, and the old Hou Ye often vomited blood in anger.

But I never saw any woman brought back to the mansion by him, and later the old Hou Ye expelled him from the mansion in a fit of anger.

From then on, he traveled all over the rivers and lakes accompanied by two "little servants".

But still the original intention remains the same, good wine and lust are doubled.

It's almost thirty now, and I don't see him having the idea of ​​marrying a wife.

Helian Xiao originally wanted to give him a marriage, but he refused.

It was never mentioned again after that.

He waved his hand, motioned Wei Yu to sit down, and said with deep eyes, "Sit down and talk."

Wei Yu straightened his official uniform and sat down respectfully opposite him.

It is estimated that in the entire Great Yan, only he has this honor.

Helian Xiao cleared his throat, and the maid quickly brought two cups of green tea, and replaced the chessboard between them.

He stretched out his hand, looked at Wei Yu, and said politely, "Wei Qing, please use tea, the best white silver needles, commonly known as the "beauty" in tea."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wei Yu picked it up and took a sip, the fragrance was indeed intoxicating.

Helian Xiao's eyes flashed, his expression became serious instantly, and he responded, "The new year is coming soon, and the man in black is still missing, is there no clue at all?"

"Now the high-ranking officials in the capital are panicking, and they go to court every day with great momentum and mighty power."

"The common people are talking about it in private and take it as a joke."

"Return to the Holy Majesty, I will definitely hurry up to find out the real culprit, and give an explanation to the dead officials and people." He knew it.

The sage uploaded him into the palace, it must be because of the man in black.

"Your Majesty will give you two months, after the end of the year, you must arrest him, otherwise..." Helian Xiao hesitated to speak.

But that look was already obvious, if he couldn't see the real culprit, he would ask Wei Yu about it.

Needless to say.

Wei Yu got up quickly, knelt down on one knee, and said respectfully and politely, "I understand."

This is the second time that Helen Xiao talked softly with him about the man in black.

He knew that it was impossible to rely solely on the Inspectorate, and Wei Yugui, as the Marquis of An Guo, was the best candidate to solve this case.

Immediately put away the cold appearance, and hurriedly helped Wei Yu up, "Wei Qing, in this summit of the ruling and the opposition, you don't have a single person who speaks your heart, outside the group of officials are intrigues, inside, the harem is intriguing."

"You're the only one."

"Is it because WeDoctor saved the Holy Majesty when he was a child?" Wei Yu asked suddenly.

"Yi is, Yi is not." Helian Xiao let go of his hand, turned around and looked out of the window, and said with his back.

The figure was both dignified and lonely.

"Then why is the sage?" Wei Yu's dark eyes became darker, and he continued to ask.

He Lianxiao was expressionless, and blurted out, "Because you know...you will always stand by your side, protecting you like you did when you were a child."

He was right.

When he was ten years old, he had a quarrel with his father because of his mother, and his father slapped him in a rage.

He didn't cry at that time, but ran out of the mansion and ran all the way to the racetrack.

Sitting in the stable, he buried his head and cried loudly, as if since that time, he never shed tears again.

Tears are worthless to him, and Yu Qingqing broke his taboo.

As if at noon today...

Halfway through crying in the stable, I heard the sound of weapons colliding in the horse farm, shouting for beating and killing.

Someone shouted that today's matter must take the life of the Seventh Prince.

Wei Yu was taken aback when he was a child, and then quietly left the stable, and saw a dozen men in black with swords attacking a boy who was half his height.

The boy was about the same age as him, wearing a golden crown on his head, and looked very unusual.

Almost all the people around him who protected him were killed by the men in black.

The boy lay on the ground in a state of embarrassment, staring at the man in black with horror in his eyes, and said viciously, "I am the seventh prince, Helian Xiao, if you kill me, the emperor will not let you go."

The man in black sneered, but was not shocked.

His eyes were cold and heartless, and he stabbed at him with a long sword. The boy reflexively used his arms to block that immature handsome face.

Prepare to die.

But death didn't wait, but the sound of horses' hoofs coming out of the frontier startled his ears.

Hundreds of horses frantically ran out of the stables, as if frightened.

He rushed towards the man in black head-on, but the man in black was caught off guard and was kicked and dragged by Ma Lian.

Little Wei Yu quickly trotted over, took advantage of the horse's panic, gently helped the boy up, and whispered, "Follow me."

In this way, he took the boy from the horse farm to a cave not far away to hide.

The racecourse is remote, except for the daily horse officials who come to clean and feed, there is no one on weekdays.

The moment the boy fell off the horse, his arm was scratched, he couldn't help frowning, and asked suspiciously, "Will those men in black come here?"

"No." Little Wei Yu agreed, and then disguised the entrance of the cave again.

Continued, "By the way, my name is Wei Yu, what's your name?"

"My name is Helian Xiao. Thank you for saving me. You released those horses." He was a little curious.

The little boy named Wei Yu in front of him was about the same age as him, but why was his right cheek swollen?

Was it beaten?

Seeing little Helian Xiao kept staring at his right cheek, little Wei Yu curled his lips, "Don't look, I was beaten by my father."

"Why did your father beat you?"

"Because of my mother... It's hard to describe in a word."

"It turned out to be like this. You saved me today, and I will definitely protect you in the future."

"Then I would like to thank the Seventh Prince." The two looked at each other and smiled, as if they were destined to meet each other.

……

From then on, the two met each other from time to time, but Helian Xiao never got involved in Lord Hou's family affairs.

The only person he wants to protect is Wei Yu.

He's safe, he's free.

Five years ago when Helian Xiao ascended the throne, the two of them never met again.

Until the old Marquis passed away, Wei Yu became an official, and on the day he entered the palace as an official, he met Helian Xiao again.

But what he didn't know was that the official position of An Guohou was specially reserved for him by Helian Xiao.

Thinking of all the troubles in childhood, good fortune always tricked people, Wei Yu's handsome face was filled with a smile, and he replied, "Shang Shang will appraise it, and this minister will always be by His Majesty's side."

"That's good." Helian Xiao seemed relieved, he knew it was right to meet Wei Yu.

The two then chatted happily.

Carefully studying the many traces of the man in black's assassination of court officials, Wei Yu also told Helian Xiao what he discussed with Lord You that day.

Helian Xiao was startled for a moment, and frowned, "Wei Qing, you mean, the mastermind behind the man in black is here for you?"

"He...is a capable person who wants to disintegrate the court, so that he can win the world of flames from it."

This is a bold guess.

But so many signs made Wei Yu have to think about it?

He was silent for a moment, looked at Helian Xiao with a solemn expression, and said, "My lord, so the palace must strengthen its precautions, so that people with them will fish in troubled waters, which is not good for the saint."

"Understood." He nodded, and the two continued to discuss.

And Helian Xiao also turned over the ancient borrowings, determined to figure out the origin of the black and white chrysalis picture.

After a flash of noon.

Two stunning men carefully searched for clues in the imperial study.

Today's sunshine is just right, penetrating through the window on Wei Yu's side face, and the wheel is as broad as crossing to Phnom Penh.

The two were too busy to take care of themselves, and they were speechless until Su Gonggong, who was next to Helian Xiao, came to deliver a message, and he bowed and kowtowed and said, "The old slave sees the Holy One, An Guohou."

Helian Xiao didn't raise his head, and said coldly, "What's the matter?"

Eunuch Su lowered his head and replied, "Go back to the Holy Majesty, Concubine Mei hosted a banquet in the Jiaofang Hall, saying that the Majesty is working hard on state affairs all day long, and it just so happens that Marquis An Guo enters the palace today, why don't we sit together for a while?"

After Helian Xiao finished listening, he raised his head and glanced at Wei Yu, and asked, "What do you think Wei Qing thinks?"

Wei Yu put down the ancient loan in his hand, he was sure he didn't have any extra thoughts to deal with others today.
