In addition to beauty, she also has a mold

"That's right. When he mentioned it, I thought it made sense, so I agreed. After thinking about it afterwards, it was indeed wrong. Even if you didn't mention it, I still planned to let General Chu leave Liecheng soon."

Li Yingyu looked at her tentatively.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yu didn't give him a good look at all, and scolded him coldly: "Birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups. You are all equally despicable!"

Li Yingyu: "..."

-

A few days ago in the capital, she met Chu Hong, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.

Old Chu's temples were gray and he was much older than in previous years, but his awe-inspiring aura remained unchanged.

When Chu Hong saw her, he looked her up and down, smiled kindly, and praised Zizhen: "Little girl, you have grown up, and now you are taller than me."

It's not that she has grown up, it's that he has grown old.

Her daughter and son-in-law died at a young age, and her only grandson lives in the shadow of swords and swords every day. It is inevitable that she will be too worried.

Xiao Yu knelt on her knees and bowed respectfully.

"Grandpa, how are you doing?"

Chu Hong was startled: "Okay, okay, get up quickly, girl."

Xiao Yu bowed again.

"Junior, I would like to thank my grandfather for opening up my veins and imparting his inner strength to me. It is a great kindness that I will never forget."

Before Chu Hong could say anything, she bowed again.

"To this day, my grandfather is still willing to see me, and I am very grateful."

Chu Hong's outstretched hand froze slightly, and then he sighed heavily.

"They all say that I am cruel, unreasonable, and only value fame and wealth rather than friendship. Only you are the only one who can say a few nice words to compliment me."

"Junior, I don't mean this as a compliment, but I mean it sincerely."

"Okay, the ground is cold, get up quickly."

"Yes."

Xiao Yu slowly stood up, and it was at this time that Sun Ruyun walked in.

Sun Ruyun's belly is getting bigger and bigger, and her past sharp appearance has faded, and her behavior has become very gentle and generous.

He bowed slightly and saluted: "Grandpa."

Then he turned to Xiao Yu with a decent smile.

"Ruyun has met Miss Dong."

Xiao Yu saw the jade hairpin on her head at a glance and immediately returned the gift.

"Madam is well."

This was the first time she and Sun Ruyun had greeted each other face to face at such a close distance, and it was also her true self after taking off her mask.

Sun Ruyun didn't know that the second young master of the Qin family at the palace banquet was her, so she just treated him as a guest he met for the first time.

Maybe it was because of her grandfather's presence, or maybe she was really kind. In short, Sun Ruyun was still polite to her.

Just during the conversation, he always stared at her intentionally or unintentionally, with a flash of complicated emotions in his eyes.

"I have never heard my husband talk about Miss Dong. I really didn't expect that my grandfather actually knew Miss Dong. In fact, I am also very curious about Miss Dong. When I saw her today, she really lived up to her reputation. She is a beauty that is better than seeing her once."

It is said that pregnant women are the most sensitive. Sun Ruyun's jealousy made Xiao Yu's heart tighten.

I came to see Chu Hong today because I had business matters to discuss, but I didn't expect Sun Ruyun to suddenly appear here.

Chu Hong had lived alone for many years and had only one grandson. How could he understand his daughter's family's thoughts?

Xiao Yu was sitting on pins and needles, the tea in her hand suddenly lost its fragrance, and she replied cautiously: "Madam, you are so complimentary, but mortal skin will eventually grow old. I saw that Madam is radiant and her complexion is like peach. She is a very lucky person. There must be harmony between husband and wife, full of children and grandchildren, and happiness.”

It's been a long time since I've had sex with a girl. When I want to coax a girl, I have to scratch my head for a long time.

Sun Ruyun really enjoyed it, covering her mouth and smiling shyly: "Miss Dong, can you still read faces?"

"To be honest with you, Madam, I have learned some skills in physiognomy. Even a person with little experience can recognize Madam's rich and noble features."

Sun Ruyun smiled even more happily.

Xiao Yu smiled in agreement and drank a few sips of tea with a dry mouth.

On the one hand, she wanted to please Sun Ruyun, but what she cared about most was Chu Hong's attitude.

Chu Hong knew her senior brother's affection for her and had always been firmly opposed to it.

Now hearing her wish that Sun Ruyun and his senior brother and his wife would live in harmony and have children and grandchildren, Sun Ruyun was happy, and a kind smile appeared on his face.

"My granddaughter-in-law, you have a big belly now and it is difficult to move around. Grandpa will do the reception of guests. You just need to take good care of yourself."

Sun Ruyun nodded and said, "Thank you for your concern, grandpa."

"Okay, go back and rest quickly, we still have something to discuss."

Sun Ruyun stood up immediately.

"Granddaughter-in-law, please retire."

Sun Ruyun's visit made Chu Hong see a different way.He stroked his beard, really surprised.

"You're a little kid. You've always been taciturn and cold and reserved. I didn't expect you to become so eloquent and good at complimenting people after two years of absence!"

Xiao Yu was rarely embarrassed and lowered her head shyly.

"Is grandpa praising me? Or is he hurting me?"

"It's neither a boast nor a disservice. I'm just surprised."

Thinking of the past, Chu Hong's eyebrows drooped.

"Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, you have all grown up. I once thought about letting Jiang'er enter the court as an official, but I didn't want him to be fighting everywhere now and unable to return home to reunite with his wife and children for a long time. Now I want to come and live in peace. Even if you are an ordinary person, it is still good."

Xiao Yu suppressed her smile and looked heavy.

Senior brother has reached this point mostly out of necessity.

But he has no way out. A general will die in a hundred battles, a lifetime of fighting, and being shrouded in horse leather is the most glorious ending.

Throughout the ages, in troubled times, how many generals have been able to die a good death?

They all know these words.

"I originally thought that he would be able to make great achievements in the court and live a stable life, but I never thought that the current situation would change, and His Majesty would become like this..."

A veteran of the two dynasties, Chu Hong was loyal to Han Yun. Even if the new emperor was unkind, he could not criticize him at will.

"It's all my fault."

With a deep sigh, Xiao Yu slowly closed her eyes, feeling unbearable.

"Grandpa, there is no need to blame himself. It is not an ordinary person who can be the commander-in-chief of the three armies. Senior brother Wen can write and Wu can hold a gun. No matter what he does, he is the best among people."

After hearing some comfort, Chu Hong felt relieved for a moment.

But he knew in his heart that all peace was temporary.

The real big wave is yet to come.

"Your father has been fighting with Rouran all his life, and finally gained a few years of peace. Now Rouran suddenly regrets his marriage and attacks our border city. Your Majesty sends Jiang'er to take back the territory. Everything is back to the starting point."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yu solemnly said: "Grandpa, relax, even if I die, I will keep my senior brother safe."

Chu Hong looked at her: "His Majesty ignored the objections of all the officials in the court and insisted on sending you to the wolf's mouth. How can your situation be better?"

He waved his hand.

"It's better to take this opportunity to stay away from the place of right and wrong, and don't get involved in disputes again."

Xiao Yu was naturally moved.

But she could never agree.

"I have inherited the kindness from my grandfather and senior brother, and I must repay each other, otherwise it will be a waste of time."

Chu Hong looked at her seriously and asked: "General Dong, you are the only descendant. Aren't you afraid of death?"

"afraid!"

she blurted out.

Chu Hong frowned: "Then you still..."

She said: "But I don't regret dying for my senior brother!"

"You're such a bastard..."

She took over the topic again.

"Grandpa, I'm not here today to show off my righteousness. I'm also a man who cherishes my life. I'm here just to make plans for the future."

It was precisely because of this that she took the risk to come to see him today.

"Now that your Majesty is killing all the Rouran merchants in the city, he must be very angry. Senior brother will definitely fight to the death when he goes to the border."

She pinched her eyebrows. Merchant Rouran was very smart in assessing the situation. He smelled the news and fled the capital overnight.

But the capital was still in chaos. The rebels continued to attack the city, and there was chaos outside.

I don’t know when this situation will end.

He didn't see Li Run, but lost contact with Zhao Wuling, which was really a headache.

I don't know what Zhao Wuling wants to do. He doesn't want to usurp the throne and proclaim himself emperor. Could it be that he wants to support Li Run in succeeding to the throne?

Although Li Run has shortcomings in temperament, he is not a violent person. He respects his teachers and has a clear distinction between love and hate.

The only thing she worried about was Sun Ruyun's natal family. Sun Guifei was colluding with Li Yingyu, and Li Run hated her very much. Once he became emperor, the Sun family would definitely not end well.

Senior brother will inevitably be implicated...

The situation was unclear, so she could only be cautious and plan ahead.

"grandfather."

She said solemnly: "There is someone who I have to meet in person, grandpa."
