Nine-thousand-year-old palm flower is not easy to mess with

Chapter 238
Chu Lian cupped his hands again, "The grace of saving life is more important. Tomorrow, I will definitely take my wife to thank General Qi."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the two separated.

"Tomorrow, accompany me to the Qi Mansion." Chu Lian said softly.

Yao Suyu tilted his head, not knowing why, "Why?"

"He saved your life, so I have to come to thank you." Chu Lian explained.

Only then did Yao Suyu remember what happened that day, and put away her joking thoughts, "If you don't tell me, I almost forgot."

She was a little surprised when she learned that the person who saved her life was General Changsheng.

Judging from Qi Yue's performance that day, unlike those corrupt courtiers, he seems to care about the people very much.

Qi Yue became famous at a young age and treats people kindly. Yao Suyu thinks that this person can be a close friend.

"Okay, I'll go get ready now." After all, he is my savior, so of course I have to thank him a lot.

The next day, Chu Lian watched Yao Suyu dressed up, and even the thank you gift he sent was extremely precious.

Although there are many private houses in his house, he still felt a little uncomfortable, and asked awkwardly, "You can't wait?"

Yao Suyu looked at Chu Lian strangely, "Didn't you ask me to thank him?"

Why is this man so weird?

Chu Lian turned his face away unnaturally, but did not answer.

Seeing that he didn't talk to him, Yao Suyu didn't find it boring, so she took out the medical books she carried with her and read them.

After a while, the carriage finally stopped.

"Governor Chu, Mrs. Chu, welcome to the humble house." Qi Yue had already stood at the gate of the mansion, and only made a sound when he saw the two of them getting out of the car.

Chu Lian and Yao Suyu followed Qi Yue into the Qi mansion. Unlike other mansions, there are only ordinary plants and trees everywhere in the Qi mansion, without the slightest luxury.

Seeing this, Chu Lian said with deep meaning: "General Qi is incorruptible, there is not a single treasure in the mansion, but ordinary flowers and plants."

Qi Yue chuckled, "We generals don't care about things outside of us. Buying an expensive flower is worse than using the money for the common people."

"General Qi is different from others." Chu Lian said casually.

Qi Yue glanced at him, and said in a deep voice: "Chu Duzhu is not what outsiders say. He is thinking of the people."

"The people are the foundation of the world. They eat what the people grow and wear what the people spin. Naturally, we have to think about them." After Chu Lian finished speaking, he met Qi Yue's eyes and saw the admiration in his eyes.

Afterwards, the two reached a tacit smile.

Seeing this, Yao Suyu scratched his head, thinking that these two people were actually making such a bid. When they came out of Qi's mansion, they opened their mouths in surprise when they learned that they had cooperated.

What did she miss?
Sure enough, smart people are different. If they say something inexplicable, the two parties will cooperate.

Because Yao Suyu is Chu Lian's wife, even if Qi Yue has feelings for her, he still buries it in his heart.

But every time I saw Yao Suyu, I couldn't help but feel my heart beat.

With the great help of Qi Yue, it is indeed much more convenient for Chu Lian to do things, and he has no worries about the future.

If Qi Yue is not strong enough, he will not cooperate with him.

"Chu Lian, do you think you're going too far?" Yao Suyu stared at Chu Lian angrily, wanting to go up and scratch his handsome face.

Chu Lian was unmoved, and said in a low voice, "This governor doesn't think it's too much."

"Chu Lian, why don't you let me go out to see a doctor?" Langzhong Wang just sent someone to inform her that a difficult patient came to Renjitang and she was urgently needed to go.

Yao Suyu lifted her feet and left, but she was stopped by someone at the gate of the mansion, saying that she could not leave the mansion.

Chu Lian didn't think he was wrong, and said bluntly: "The atmosphere outside is not good, what if you are arrested?"

"I was careless last time. Besides, there are so many poisons on my body, who do you think can get close to me." Yao Suyu narrowed his eyes, and a stern look flashed in his eyes.

Chu Lian still had that calm look, "You can't go out."

Yao Suyu patted the table, "Chu Lian, have you forgotten that we are just a cooperative relationship, not a husband and wife relationship, you can't restrict my freedom."

After she finished speaking, she walked away without hesitation.

As soon as he opened the door, he met Qi Yue's eyes, Yao Suyu paused, nodded and left.

When he learned that Yao Suyu was not Chu Lian's wife, Qi Yue felt a surprise and almost knocked him out.

I wanted to stay away from Yao Suyu, but I didn't expect that Yao Suyu and Chu Lian were not husband and wife.

This... is great!
Doesn't he have a chance?
The fatigue of the past few days was swept away in an instant, Qi Yue was refreshed for a long time, and even Chu Lian noticed it.

But Chu Lian also discovered another thing.

Every time Qi Yue went to his mansion, he would always bring gifts, and those gifts were obviously women's.

There is only one person in the mansion who can handle it.

That person is Yao Suyu.

Thinking of Qi Yue's thoughts on Yao Suyu, Chu Lian only felt a little stuffy in his chest.

He touched his chest and asked strangely, "Could there be sequelae?"

With Yao Suyu in charge, all his food and clothing must go through her hands, so he will not be harmed by poison, but his chest is very tight, and he only feels that his body is hindered.

"Chu Lian, what's wrong with you?" Yao Suyu hurried over after learning that Chu Lian was ill.

Hearing this, Chu Lian glanced at Wu Gou, "It's nothing. I'm just a little bored."

Yao Suyu pulled his arm, checked his pulse regardless of his objection, and then let go, "From the pulse, you are not sick. Stuffed up? Are you angry?"

Chu Lian glanced at her, "Except for you, who would dare to be angry with the governor."

After the last time he quarreled with Yao Suyu, Yao Suyu regarded him as correct, so how can he not make people angry?
Yao Suyu touched his nose in embarrassment, and said haha, "I won't do it next time."

Last time, she was too conflicted. After realizing it, she also knew that Chu Lian was doing it for her own good.

Chu Lian nodded in relief, feeling like a young girl in my family, "As long as you don't cause trouble, I will protect you."

Meeting Chu Lian's serious eyes, Yao Suyu's heart moved, and he looked away, and Weng Sheng agreed.

The days passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the annual pilgrimage meeting of the vassal small country.

Due to the presence of foreign missions, martial law was strictly enforced throughout Kyoto, and the people became tense.

Wei Gaojin hated Chu Lian for letting himself be beaten by the emperor, and made Chu Lian responsible for the martial law in the capital.Dongchang already had a lot of things to do, and with this extra official duty, Chu Lian was so busy that he didn't touch the ground, and he returned to the governor's mansion very late every day.

This made Yao Suyu, who was an idler, couldn't bear it, so he specially cooked tonic and sent it to the study.

Seeing that the study room was still on, Yao Suyu walked in directly, "I'm always busy, it's so late, let's take a rest."

Chu Lian raised his eyebrows in surprise, folded his hands together, and walked slowly to the table.

He lifted his robe and sat down, took a sip, and said nonchalantly, "What have you been up to lately?"

"Get medical treatment. But because of the court meeting, there are very few people seeing the doctor, so I am happy to be free." Yao Suyu propped his chin, staring at the man in front of him for a moment.
