The personal sycophant of the villainous empress.

Chapter 146 My sins are heavy
"Su Ho." Su An thought for a while, "In terms of seniority, she seems to be my aunt, so I have to call you cousin."

"I can't be the cousin of the Marquis." Lu Chen quickly lowered his head: "In my humble body, I only want to be the Marquis's lackey, bite the enemies in front of me for the Marquis, and become a sharp sword in the hands of the Marquis. "

"Cousin, please don't do this. Please get up quickly."

Su Anwen helped Lu Chen up from the ground, and then personally patted the dust on his clothes. Who could tell from this look that he stepped on Lu Chen's head half a minute ago.

"Since you and I are cousins ​​and brothers, why do we need to give such a big gift?"

If we really talk about their relationship, then Su Ho and Su An don't even know how far apart they are.

But as long as you are willing to talk, you can always get involved.

It would be just right to arrange Lu Chen to work in the Black Bird Division and let him do some dirty work.

For example, he would deal with the miscellaneous items, or find out who was speaking ill of him in private, which officials were dissatisfied with him, whether his family's wealth was sufficient, whether it was enough for him to ransack his house, etc.

He was not afraid of Lu Chen deceiving him. If Lu Chen wanted to gain his trust, he would have to come up with something real.

Su An won't really trust him.

When the villain value in him is drained out, it will naturally be the time when Liang Gong hides his lackey and cooks him.

……

When Lu Chen walked out of the Hou Mansion, the string in his heart relaxed a little.

Looking back at the luxurious mansion behind him, he let out a breath.

Having successfully surrendered to Su An, whether or not he can take revenge depends on whether he can gain his trust.

This time I will never go down the same old path!

"By the way, I haven't gone back, so Nian Gu should be worried."

Thinking that he had been delayed in the Hou Mansion for two days and missed the agreement with Nian Gu, Lu Chen got a headache.

"Hurry back and explain to Nian Gu."

Grandpa has already gone to the Northland. He can't stop this, so the only person in the world that he can care about is Nian Gu.

He couldn't help speeding up.

"Hey, Lu Chen, are you back?"

When I returned to the Lu family, I happened to see Nian Gu going out.

"Where did you go last night?"

Shi Niangu frowned slightly, her face full of displeasure.

"Ah, I'm sorry, Niangu." Lu Chen lowered his head slightly and admitted his mistake sincerely: "I had something to do last night and was delayed."

Originally, he wanted to make up a reason, but after seeing Nian Gu, he really couldn't come up with a lie.

Nian Gu pursed her lips slightly, looking a little disappointed in Lu Chen.

It was obviously agreed that no matter how big something happened, it would come, but in the end, it was still delayed.

Fortunately, she was still worried that Lu Chen was in danger, so she spent half the night looking for him.

"Next time you do this, I won't ignore you."

"There will be no next time, absolutely no next time!" Lu Chen quickly swore to God, and Nian Gu forgave him.

The two reconciled, but neither party knew what the other had been through.

……

Soon after the appointment, Lu Chen became a captain of the Xuandiao Division.

The position of captain usually requires people at the Purple Mansion level and above to hold the position, but Su An, as the deputy commander of the Black Bird Division, has this right arrangement.

Lu Chen, who had just joined the company, naturally tried his best to show his value.

Under Su An's care, Xuandiaosi handed over a large pile of unimportant matters to Lu Chen, leaving him very busy.

Faced with such a dedicated subordinate, Su An naturally had to express his condolences to his family with the most sincere heart.

Here Shi Niangu also returned to the Lu family from Baichuan Academy.

She is still a student at Baichuan Academy in the Imperial Capital, and is currently living in the Lu family temporarily.

The Shi family and the Lu family were family friends, and they had agreed to marry each other since they were young. In addition, the Shi family was not in the imperial capital, so for the convenience of their parents, they temporarily entrusted her to the Lu family.

"The battle is over, it's No. 2 again." Shi Niangu said helplessly.

The competition between the colleges also ended today. As expected, Baichuan Academy came in second place. As a member of the team battle, she naturally also received the elixir rewarded by the college.

"The fetal breath is at its peak, and we should be able to break through the Zi Mansion soon."

With the academy's reward, she felt that she could shorten this time again.

Although Shi Niangu is one year younger than Lu Chen, her cultivation level is stronger than that of Lu Chen. If she can break through the Zi Mansion before the age of 30, she will be called a genius.

"Lu Chen hasn't come back yet."

After looking at Lu Chen's house, Shi Niangu sighed slightly and returned to her room.

Ever since Lu Chen became the captain of the Xuandiao Division, his life has been to go out early and come back late. Sometimes he even lives in the Xuandiao Division and basically sees no one.

The promise she made last time became empty words.

It's obviously getting better, but why does it feel like it's getting further and further away?

She was a little puzzled.

Just as he was thinking about it, a maid suddenly came over to announce that someone was asking to see him. Before Shi Niangu could respond, a figure walked straight in.

"Miss Shi, long time no see." Su An stepped into the room with a smile on her face.

"Who are you?" Shi Niangu looked at the man who broke in with some confusion, and felt a little wary in her heart.

She felt that this man seemed familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him.

"Miss Shi, you forgot, I am Lu Chen's cousin Su An!" Su An moved a chair familiarly and sat across from Shi Niangu, "Speaking of which, I have to call you sister-in-law."

"Ah, is it?"

Shi Niangu thought for a while, and it seemed that Lu Chen did have such a cousin. She immediately lowered her guard and her face turned slightly red: "What are you talking about, sister-in-law? Lu Chen and I are not married yet."

Her mother has been very strict with her since she was a child. She has never had close contact with Chase Lu until now. This is the first time someone has called her sister-in-law.

Seeing the two of them talking, the maid also stepped back in awe.

"We're already engaged, aren't we?" Su An smiled: "Besides, calling her sister-in-law means being close to her."

Shi Niangu's earlobes turned red, but she didn't refute the title.

"Cousin, are you here to see Lu Chen today? He is not at home now."

"Of course not." Su An reached out and grabbed Shi Niangu's little hand. It was soft and gentle, as if she was holding a piece of warm and fragrant jade. These are the hands of a lady, "I heard that my cousin's fiancée is both talented and beautiful. She is gentle and gentle. Wan Xianshu is one of the four beauties in the imperial capital, and I came here specifically to see her."

"When I met my sister-in-law today, I realized that the rumors were still too conservative."

"I can't be as good as you say."

Shi Niangu let Su An play with the slender jade fingers that Lu Chen had never touched, and lowered her head slightly.

[Cousin Su An is a close person, some physical contact is normal behavior, and there is no need to feel any objection]

"Sister-in-law, there is no need to belittle yourself." Su An solemnly wrapped Shi Niangu's hand in her tender arm: "Sister-in-law's skillful hands alone are enough to rank in the top three among all the women I have seen. It's a pity that …”

Shi Niangu's hands are indeed rare and beautiful. They are narrow, slender, plump and white, and the exquisite jade fingers are as if they were carved from white jade. They are very elegant.

"She's really so beautiful." Shi Niangu felt a little happy when she was praised. Few people had praised her like this before.

Hearing Su An say it was a pity, her interest was immediately aroused and she asked curiously: "What's a pity?"

Su An had a smile in her eyes: "It's a pity..."

Just like that, the two of them started talking animatedly.

One mouth is a sister-in-law, one mouth is a cousin.

It was as if they had known each other for many years, and there was no trace of unfamiliarity between them.

Shi Niangu only thought that this cousin was quite interesting, and what he said always matched her thoughts. She really felt close to her cousin Su An, and even the loneliness caused by Lu Chen's absence was alleviated.

The distance between the two also got closer and closer, and in the end they were not even a finger apart.

Even Lu Chen has never been so close.

However, Shi Niangu didn't think it was a big deal. Her cousin Su An was a relative, so it was normal to get closer to him.

As for Lu Chen, the two are not yet married, so they naturally need to keep a distance.

Unconsciously, it was getting late, and the two chatted for a long time, almost forgetting the passage of time.

"By the way, why haven't you seen your cousin yet?" Su An asked.

Shi Niangu's expression dropped a bit when she heard this, and there was a bit of disappointment on her soft face: "Your cousin Lu Chen has now become the captain of the Xuandiao Division, and he stays in the Xuandiao Division all day long. I don't know. When will he come back?"

"I see."

Su An nodded, showing an annoyed look, and kept slapping Shi Niangu's thigh: "Oh, after all, this matter has something to do with me."

"Ah?" Shi Niangu was a little confused as to what this matter had to do with her cousin.

Su An stopped patting, put his hand on the soft thigh and explained: "I am the deputy commander of the Black Bird Division. When my cousin came to me and said he wanted to find something to do, I arranged for him to join Xuanniosi, I didn’t expect that my sister-in-law would not be able to reunite with my cousin.”

He looked miserable and started to squeeze his hands unconsciously, "I have sinned so much!"

"Don't say that." Shi Niangu hurriedly held Su An's hand and shook her head, "Since this is Lu Chen's own request, how can I blame you."

Then she hesitated again, with a somewhat pleading look: "Cousin, you are Lu Chen's boss, can you help me get him to come back early?"

"He always says he is busy with work, but I don't think other monks working in the Black Bird Division are as busy as he is."

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'll take care of this matter." Su An agreed, patting her chest.

Su An waited until the moon was high in the sky and agreed to come back next time before Su An left the Lu family.

Shi Niangu closed the door and sat beside the bed, lifting her skirt.

There were some red marks on her thighs, and her chest was also slightly swollen.

"It's true that my cousin likes to be close to me so much."

Although she said this, she had no objection to Su An.

I was talking to my cousin today and I really felt like I had a good rapport with him. I would like to move around more often and get closer to him in the future.

The operation of her magic power quickly eliminated these red marks, and then she closed the door tightly and replaced sleep with practice.

And in Xuanniao Division,

Lu Chen looked at the files piled up in front of him that filled half the room and smiled bitterly.

It seems that I can't go back tonight. I just hope Nian Gu won't be angry.

He also has to work harder to win Su An's trust as soon as possible and be freed from these complicated tasks.
