The noisy elders immediately shut up, looked at each other, and sat back down.

Li Hong also woke up from the edge of rage and loosened his clenched fists slightly.

Mrs. Yu glanced at Li Hong and the elders and said coldly: "Husband, the person on the left is your subordinate?"

The elders all recognized it, how could he hide it from Mrs. Yu? It was useless even if Li Hong refused to admit it.

He nodded.

Mrs. Yu's voice was majestic, "The elders of the clan have not wronged you, but since your relatives have just passed away, I will not punish you severely. Husband, please go to the ancestral hall to think about it for three days!"

Li Hong wanted to say something angrily, but when he raised his head and met Madam Yu's eyes, he was startled, calmed down again, and accepted the punishment Madam Yu gave him.

Li Hong was punished, and Mrs. Yu looked at the elderly elders again, her voice not less majestic, "It was the elders who agreed to my wife marrying Li Hong. It is his ability that Li Hong can become the chieftain of the Liu family. If you can't stand it, why couldn't you stop him in the first place? Now that you're running against him, are you just thinking about the Liu family?"

The elders who caused the most turmoil immediately stood up and apologized, "Madam is teaching me that I was at fault!"

"You are old, so I won't punish you, so that you won't lose face in front of the clan! But among these corpses are not only Li Hong's cronies, but also people from the Duhu Mansion! Our Liu family is not someone who can be bullied casually. , leave this matter to you and give me a satisfactory explanation in a few days!"

When Mrs. Yu said this, the elders breathed a sigh of relief and immediately promised to restore face to the Liu family.

Li Hong silently sat on his toast seat, his eyes flashing.

Although Madam took this opportunity to help him consume the influence of several elders of the Liu family who opposed him, he couldn't help but feel uneasy in his heart. There was always a faint feeling that Madam didn't trust him as much as before.

After the Liu family in the meeting hall dispersed, Li Hong was taken to the Liu family ancestral hall by his clan members. Then the door of the ancestral hall was locked from the outside. He was really locked in the ancestral hall and made to face the wall and think about his mistakes!

Li Hong clenched his fists and stared at the tightly closed door of the ancestral hall, feeling increasingly dissatisfied.

When the morning sun shone on the Liu family's old house, everything became calm again.

After a good night's sleep, I got up and freshened up and came out to see Xie Xuanye still standing on the porch at the door.

Seeing the faint cyan color under Xie Xuanye's eyelids, Qin Shuhuang guessed that Xie Xuanye had been waiting outside the door all night long.

She was heartbroken, but at this moment Ruda came in refreshed.

Suddenly, Qin Shuhuang told Luda that the eyes were not eyes and the nose was not nose.

Qin Shuhuang only asked Xie Xuanye to eat the food brought by the maids, but did not mention Lu Da.

Ruda scratched his head. Next to him was the fragrant morning food. Smelling the fragrance, his stomach couldn't help but growl.

But His Highness didn't say anything, and he didn't dare to ask for it. He lowered his head in aggrieved manner, like a doormat.

What happened? He just took a nap. Why did His Highness's mood change from sunny to rainy at the same time?

Qin Shuhuang saw Xie Xuanye put down his chopsticks after eating half a bowl of noodles, and said angrily: "Xuan Cang, go and have a rest, otherwise you won't go out today!"

Xie Xuanye was forced to go back to his room to rest. Before leaving, he told Luda to protect Qin Shuhuang.

In order to punish Lu Da, Qin Shuhuang asked him to eat Xie Xuanye's unfinished noodles.

When Ruda heard His Highness's order, he didn't dislike it at all. He picked up Xie Xuanye's leftover noodles and ate them cleanly in three or two mouthfuls, leaving no noodle soup behind.

After eating, he shamelessly asked Qin Shuhuang for a few buns.

When Qin Shuhuang saw that Luda was full, he stood in front of her door and guarded her responsibly. He shook his head helplessly. It seemed that Luda didn't know why she was angry at all.

What's the use of being angry with someone who doesn't know why he's angry.

He might be so angry by then that he doesn't even know he is angry...

After having the morning meal, four mute maids accompanied Qin Shuhuang for a walk in the garden of Sanjin Courtyard.Then the housekeeper came to invite Qin Shuhuang to play chess in Erjin's courtyard, saying that his master invited him.

Qin Shuhuang has to stay in this elder's house for a few days and can't go out. Playing chess is a good way to kill time. However, she hasn't played chess for a long time and her skills are already rusty. She doesn't know if she is Luo Chu's opponent.

Qin Shuhuang followed the housekeeper to the second courtyard.

The layout of the second courtyard is quiet, simple and refreshing, which is Luo Chu's favorite style.

Entering the second courtyard, I saw a stone table under a flower vine with chess pieces already placed, and Luo Chu was already sitting at the stone table waiting.

Qin Shuhuang was carefully raised by the former emperor and empress since she was a child. She dabbled in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. In addition, she was smart since she was a child and her chess skills were not bad.

In the first game of chess, Qin Shuhuang's moves were still a bit raw and he lost quickly.

During the second game of chess, it was as if all the long-standing experience in playing chess came back. He played the game for a full hour, and finally lost two and a half pieces to Luo Chu.

Luo Chu said: "We are making rapid progress. If we continue, it won't be a problem to win against Luo."

Qin Shuhuang was not stupid. He knew that Luo Chu had deliberately given up the move when making the move, otherwise the chess game would not have progressed to this point.

"Next time we play chess, I hope Mr. Luo won't hide it anymore."

Luo Chu laughed when he heard this.

After the two games of chess were over, it was time for lunch. Qin Shuhuang thanked Luo Chu for the invitation to have dinner together and returned to the backyard.

Luda followed Qin Shuhuang, and Qin Shuhuang played chess. He watched from the side, and soon became a mosquito-repellent incense.

As long as Qin Shuhuang played chess, Lu Da yawned.

It was as if the whole person was still trapped in a dream.

It wasn't until he heard Qin Shuhuang say "put the food on the table" that he became energetic and stared at the maids serving the food with his big eyes.

I couldn’t help but keep swallowing my saliva, I’m a foodie!

Qin Shuhuang had no choice but to ask the maids to bring food to Lu Da. After lunch, Qin Shuhuang was going to take a nap and asked Lu Da to deliver food to Xie Xuanye.

In the side room where Xie Xuanye was resting, after catching up on a morning's sleep, Xie Xuanye felt much better.

Ruda happily came in with a food box and put all the dishes in the food box on the table, "Commander, it's time for dinner, there are so many things you like to eat!"

Xie Xuanye glanced at the dishes on the table and found that they were all his favorite dishes.

Nothing like the humble meal that was delivered yesterday.

"Why so many?" Xie Xuanye walked to the table and sat down and asked.

Ruda chuckled and lowered his voice: "His Royal Highness asked his subordinates to send it to the commander."

Xie Xuanye, who had been gloomy all night, suddenly looked better. He picked up his chopsticks and tasted a few dishes and his appetite was whetted.

While eating, Xie Xuanye asked Ruda, "What did Your Highness do this morning?"

Luda stayed by Qin Shuhuang's side all morning and knew Qin Shuhuang's whereabouts very well. When the commander asked, he said it smoothly, "After your highness had the morning meal, he went for a walk in the garden, and was then invited by Mr. Luo for the second time." I went into the courtyard to play chess and didn't go back until noon. From His Highness to the Gu Mansion, my subordinates followed His Highness. This was the first time I saw His Highness play chess. Mr. Luo praised His Highness for his good chess skills!"

Xie Xuanye: ...

Suddenly I felt like I couldn't eat anymore... (End of chapter)
