Chapter 332 Circle
It was noon at that time, and the sun was high. Cui Naijin asked someone to push Zhou Yishui to bask in the sun as usual. It was dark now, but at least his body was warm. After the cold air was exposed, people could become better day by day. Get better.

She smiled and picked up a chrysanthemum for him to smell, "Autumn is here again, and winter will come soon. You said it will snow heavily then, what kind of snowman can we build?"

Zhou Yishui is naturally happy. Although he has resigned due to injury and is out of the court's storm, it is rare to be quiet at this moment.

If everything develops for the better, then this is probably how he will live his life.

But... he always felt it was a pity not to be able to fight side by side with like-minded friends...

At that time, he was high-spirited and fearless. It was as if there was a hole in the sky and water was leaking out. He was still playing with the water foolishly. Therefore, Zhang Maorong always said that he has a reckless and unrestrained courage. If he is not careful, he will be doomed. Now he has just answered the divination. Now he is fully devoted to recuperation, but outside of recuperation, he is still very I'm worried that Ti Zhen will be outnumbered...

However, this concern was not delayed. A maid from the corridor came to report, "Shi Guifei is here."

"Shi Gui's concubine?" Naijin instinctively repeated the sentence, "Shi...Yu Huan?"

Now the Shi family is divided into two groups, one group supports the King of Qin and the other group supports the Emperor, which gives Mr. Shi a headache. At this critical moment, if one of them comes over, either he wants to ask for something, or he has seen a ghost.

She clapped her hands and stood up. As soon as she turned around, Zhou Yishui grabbed her and shook his head at her.

She said: "Don't worry, I'm in good hands." Then she walked out.

In the hall, Yu Huan was sitting in the hall, waiting. Nai Jin slowly came forward and bowed perfunctorily, "I didn't know that your concubine is here, and I missed you from afar. I hope you will forgive me!"

Then he asked his servant to bring tea with fragrant tablets, and listened to Yu Huan say: "I just have nothing to do and come to see Sister Cui."

She paused and continued to raise her head, "I also heard the news earlier that my eldest sister is fine. Although I am in the palace, there are always times when I can't help myself. So when I got the news, the first thing I said was naturally Father and Sister Cui listen, and I want you to rest assured."

"But..." She rolled her eyes slightly, as if nothing had happened: "But to say the least, since Mr. Zhou was injured, Sister Cui and Eldest Sister have not been together for a long time."

Naijin hummed lightly, "Yishui can't live without people right now. She has to look at Shi Fang and focus on King Qin at the same time, so she has no time to spare."

Yu Huan pinched the silk and smiled, "Really? I thought it was Sister Cui who was separated from the eldest sister."

When Cui Naijin heard this, he immediately said coldly: "Why do you think so? As long as we are honest with each other, how can we talk about differences?"

She looked straight at her with a look of disdain on her lips.

In this oppressive silence, she could only hear a stream of breeze blowing from the window to her neck, and Yu Huan suddenly felt excited.

Embarrassed, he said, "I asked out of concern."

Naijin leaned on the velvet heating pad and knocked on the table with his hands, "I have seen your carelessness since childhood, otherwise you wouldn't have come to report to me specifically because of your eldest sister's matter. Peace, test my attitude."

She snorted softly, "Actually, it's common sense to be cautious when doing things, but if someone has evil intentions, sows dissension, and ruins his moral character, it will be a big deal."

This word was like a sharp edge, cutting through Yu Huan's composure. She forced a smile and said, "Sister said this because she misunderstood her. In this situation, one more person will bring more strength."

"Although the eldest sister was very prosperous for a while, she was constrained by the Huyan clan. Even if she could return to Beijing safely, she might not be able to check and balance her. Instead of being bullied and cold-eyed by the Huyan clan, it would be better to start a new business. Even if Sister Cui does not consider the future of the Cui family, You should also think about Mr. Zhou."

Nai Jin lowered her head and mocked disapprovingly, "What are you thinking about? Who do you think we will side with and who will we take refuge in?" She raised her sleeves and covered the corners of her mouth as if to avoid the dust, "When your sister is still inferior to others in skills, what are you doing?" Why do you think you will win? If you are too confident, you will be punished. Your concubine has time to win over me here, so it is better to save your energy to please your majesty, so as to keep your Shi family... safe. "

Yu Huan instantly understood the contempt in Nai Jin's eyes, "They say that my sister is impatient, but it turns out she is right now. She speaks quickly and doesn't even show mercy."

Naijin's smile was meaningful, "To put it this way, my concubine, you are too worried. I just have something to talk about. I don't like to play hard to get. It's really hard to play every step of the way."

"However, it's the same truth over and over again. Just because I hate your sister doesn't mean that I will like you. You can be any one of you. I, the Cui family of Jizhou, don't even bother to participate in the power-seeking tactics. If nothing goes wrong, you should find someone else to do. Please be wise!"

After saying that, she stood up while supporting the table and bowed steadily, "Farewell, my concubine!"

This ceremony was like putting Yuhuan on fire. She couldn't get off the stage, so in the end there was no more confrontation, and she had no choice but to drive back to the palace with her attendants.

The maid on the side saw this posture and asked tremblingly: "Madam, were your words too offensive just now?"

Nai glanced sternly, as cold as a cone of cold: "Collision? She wants to take the life of my Cui family in Jizhou to fight against the King of Qin. If I don't beat her, it's because she is a noble concubine. Who dares to use me as a quarrel? Raft, I won’t even give her face!”

"But... what if..." the maid said in panic: "When that day comes, neither of us are human, will it happen..."

Nai Jin was calm, "It's been so long since such a quiet life. How can I still be involved in the bloody storms like before? For me now, fame, fortune, and future are not as important as the safety of my family."

"I also believe that based on what Yishui and I have done for her over the years, she will definitely protect us. If she can't even help a small Huyan clan, she will be called Shi Tizhen in vain."

It was already completely dark, and the desolate dry wind outside made the palace lanterns under the eaves sway, casting an uneasy yellow light and shadow.

On the carriage, Xue Yan was talking about the scene just now, "This Cui Naijin is really merciless in her words. In the past, she believed in Shi Tiezhen, and she still caused Zhou Jieyi to be implicated. Now that we have given her a step, she is aloof. Could it be that Forgot, how did the person named Zhou climb to the position of Minister of Civil Affairs? Who would believe that they would not take sides? "

Yu Huan chuckled lightly, but there was only a glimmer in her eyes, not tired, "I had never suffered a loss before, so naturally I dared to do anything, but now...it's different. She may not be pretending to be arrogant, she probably really wants to Keep to yourself."

Xue Yan was startled, "If this is really the case, then aren't we here in vain?"

Yu Huan shook her head, "It's not in vain. At least I know that... Cui didn't stand in my sister's camp. Although there was no help, there was one less enemy. At least it could ensure that Cui didn't get involved. And that’s enough.”

She straightened up and sighed, "Fortunately, His Majesty has already taken care of You. Even if the King of Qin comes to the capital to question, there may not be any reason. As long as there is no reason, they are treasonous and traitorous. As for the rest..."

She ran her fingers through her hair, and a flash of light flashed in her eyes, "Three days from now, it happens to be my birthday. Go and tell His Majesty that I will hold a grand birthday banquet and invite all the ladies with orders to the palace."

Xueyan smiled knowingly, "Yes."

Yu Huan leaned down and gently rubbed her temples with her fingers, "The spy said where is King Qin's current schedule?"

Xue Yan said: "We are in Luoyang, but the distance between us is only two or three days."

"Luoyang... Luoyang..." Yu Huan muttered silently, feeling increasingly strange in her heart.

Luoyang is located southeast of Chang'an. If you return from the north, you will not pass through here. Moreover, Luoyang is also the territory of Shifang. King Qin passed by here rashly. Could it be that...

Suddenly, cold sweat broke out in his palms, "Oops, go back to the palace quickly, something big is going to happen in the east!!"
