Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 655 She Is The Master's Weakness

"Master, there's another letter from the palace." Tu Ling walked into the study with a letter.

Xiao Xu was painting at this time, without raising his head when he heard the words, he said, "Let's put it aside."

Tu Ling nodded and put the letter on the desk, and then said a little worriedly, "Master, the empress has sent you so many letters recently, is there something your Majesty has done?"

Xiao Xu drew a bird on the towering tree on the paper, and said in a calm and authentic tone, "Father's thoughts are nothing more than that. If there is any action, we already know it. They just want me to return to Beijing."

"Could it be that the Empress wants you to send troops to take command again?" In recent days, the border conflict between Xixuan Kingdom and Nancang Kingdom has become more and more serious. Although several riots have been suppressed forcefully, public resentment has already arisen, and Nan Cangguo held his breath, and it might explode one day.So Earth Spirit had this guess.

Xiao Xu's brush paused, and then continued to paint, "My mother has never given up. If she could see the situation clearly, she might not be so worried about her life."

Since the father has sent him to the Fuli Mountains, he has actually separated him from the position of prince, and he is no longer eligible to compete. It's just that no one has brought this matter to the table, but it's just to leave a step for each other Down.

But the queen mother has always been unwilling, and she is unwilling to recognize the facts, so in the past few years, she has been uniting with the Liang family, wooing the ministers of the court, and resisting Xiao Ran's position. It is a pity that doing so will make the emperor even more displeased and resentful .

"Shui Ling sent news a few days ago that if the two sides go to war, the fourth prince is likely to be in command. This time the news seems to have been finalized by His Majesty, and it is no longer like the previous rumors!" Tu Ling recalled this matter , reported immediately.

Xiao Xu stopped writing, "Don't blame your mother for sending letters over the past two days. Bring me the letter to have a look."

Earth Spirit immediately handed over the letter on the table.

Xiao Xu tore open the letter, then took out the letter paper and opened it.

I saw what was written on the letter paper: Xuer, the war is about to start. Whether you like it or not, your mother must invite you to fight, otherwise you will take care of your little princess. If you accidentally run out and let your mother see, don’t blame her for being cruel .In the struggle for imperial power, someone must sacrifice.

Seeing the last word, Xiao Xu's face became stern, and the queen mother actually turned her mind on Qingyan.

Seeing that the aura on the master's body turned cold for a moment, Tu Ling was a little startled, and when he took the letter and came over to read it, he understood why the master had changed.

The empress has always wanted the master to come forward, but the master ignored him, so she had no choice but to use the little princess as a threat.

Take a snake and take seven inches, and the little princess seems to have become the master's weakness.

This realization made Earth Spirit frown.

"Master, the little concubine is going out today, has the empress already sent someone to do it?"

Xiao Xu stood by the window with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance through the dark night.

"The queen mother never does things first and then the soldiers, so when the letter is sent out of the palace, the order has already been issued."

"You mean, as soon as Xin arrives in the south of the Yangtze River, the empress's people have already arrived?" Tu Ling was slightly surprised.

Xiao Xu condensed his gaze, "If the guess is correct, he has already followed Qingyan."

"Master, are we going to send someone to reinforce the little princess now?" Tu Ling was a little anxious at this moment.

"It's too late." Xiao Xu's expression turned cold for a moment.

The evening wind blew into the room, blowing up the painting with wet ink.

On the rice paper, the birds under the banyan tree were locked in a cage, and the golden cage shone with a cold light under the sunlight.

The shackles of broken wings have always been selfish.

Just like his mother.

In the roe deer inn.

Chu Qingyan followed Jinxin's instructions and looked over, and saw a table under the corner of the stairs, two people wearing valances were eating with their heads bowed, dressed like people from the Jianghu, there was nothing suspicious about it, She looked away.

"Believe me, are you reading it wrong?" Chu Qingyan asked.

Jinxin took another look, but there was nothing unusual, so he couldn't help saying, "Maybe my subordinates are too cautious."

Chu Qingyan smiled and said, "Eat quickly, we have to hurry after eating!"

A table of people nodded, and then they were about to start, when suddenly there was noise in the street.

"The city gate is closed, it will be closed early today!"

"Why is it so early today? Isn't there still an hour and a half left?"

"Who knows, this rule is just like the sky in June. It changes as soon as it is said, and we ordinary people can't control it!"

"..."

When the voice came, although it wasn't clear, it was more or less able to catch the point.

"Eighteen, go and see what's going on?" Chu Qingyan ordered immediately.

Xu Shiba took the order to leave, and came back after a while.

"Master, we can't go out tonight. The county magistrate ordered someone to close the city gate fifteen minutes ago." Xu Shiba said angrily.

The city gate was closed without warning, which made Chu Qingyan raise her eyebrows slightly. After thinking about it, she said, "The city gate will not open until tomorrow. Since it is a foregone conclusion, we can only stay here. What happened suddenly? , I’m afraid there are many people who are too late to go out and want to stay in the hotel. One of you went to the Xiaolu Inn and told Liu Guang to reserve the room immediately, otherwise you will sleep on the street later. Let's go when the door opens."

Everyone nodded and went to work separately.

Chu Qingyan tapped her finger on the tabletop, calculating whether she could reach Fuyang tomorrow after delaying this night, but later found out that it was unknown, so she simply didn't think about it, and ate with peace of mind.

But at this time, Dongting Wangyu sat at another table with Xuanxi Zimo, watching Chu Qingyan and the others from afar.

"My lord, is that really Miss Chu? The girl's eighteen changes, the more she changes, the more she becomes unrecognizable!" Xuanxi Zimo sized her up and couldn't help complaining.

"You can't be wrong, it's her."

Although time has passed and five years have passed, her facial features have opened up, become more refined, her height has grown longer, and she is more confident, but the temperament and small movements that belong to her have not changed or disappeared over time.

He felt a sudden burst of pride in his accomplishments that my girl had just grown up with.

This feeling is very strange, but he likes it very much.

"Then master, shall we go over and say hello?" Although I don't know how the young master recognized him, but he was very disdainful for his master's behavior of secretly observing others from the side, so he couldn't help suggesting.

"What are you in a hurry for? Didn't you see that she seemed to be under surveillance?" Dongting Wangyu knocked his subordinate on the head with the fan in his hand.

"Miss Chu is in danger?" Xuanxi Zimo whispered.

"It looks like this at the moment."

Dong Ting Wangyu glanced at the quack people wearing veiled hats all over the restaurant, his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and his lips curled up slightly.

It seems that God really treats him kindly and created such an excellent opportunity for him.

He can hold on to it.
