Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 398 Time is running out
At lunch time, Chu Sijiu came out from the inner room.

It was agreed that she was going to give lectures and listen to Zen enlightenment, so her eyes were deep and her expression was unpredictable, and her whole body carried a little calmness.

I look forward to it in awe.

Shui Hanbing followed behind, as cold as ice as before.

"Go vegetarian." The voice was calm.

A group of people walked to the dining hall at the back of the temple, and on the way, Shui Hanbing motioned her to go to a small path on the side.

"Huh?" Chu Sijiu was puzzled.

"Didn't you say you want to see the Bodhisattva with long horns?" Shui Han said coldly.

Chu Sijiu frowned, as if trying to be awkward, "I don't want to watch it."

With a ruthless energy, he walked towards the dining hall with a "thump".

……

I didn't stay long in Qianfo Temple.

After finishing the vegetarian meal, the group went back.

It was still early, and the sun was hanging in the blue-white sky, making the carriage very warm.With the rotation of the wheels, the thin wind blows into the compartment from the side gap, slightly relieving the sweltering heat inside.

Chu Sijiu sat leaning against the car board in a daze, her eyes drifted, and she kept thinking about what Lin Zimo said in her mind.

"Grandfather is not reconciled to the Chu family being wiped out...Although the old master doesn't understand what my brother is doing, he still gives the greatest support."

"He negotiated terms with the Lin family of the Wu state. The Lin family of the Weibei state fully supports the Wu state to annex the Northland. After the establishment of the state, the Northland state will be named Chu...and avenge the Chu family of the Dayu state."

"Chu is surnamed Liguo, and you are the princess. You must leave Yecheng as soon as possible and come to Hucheng."

"Dongfang Hao's surname is Dongfang, and he will become the next emperor of Dayu Kingdom. You... will not have any results."

"There's not much time left for you."

……

industry city.

Dongfang Hao came out from the palace.

Hai Qing stood in front of the palace gate with a worried look on his face.See him come out, run over immediately.

"My lord, someone has sneaked into the princess mansion to poison again."

"Have you caught it?"

"Caught it, but the man killed himself by biting poison."

"Male and female?"

"This time it's a man, Xiao Jian has discovered something, he thinks..." The voice behind him was very soft.

Dongfang Hao's eyes narrowed, "Lead the horse over here."

Flying riders raised dust and ran towards the Princess Mansion.

Not far away, a quarter and a half later, Dongfang Hao was already standing in the dining hall of the Ten Princess Mansion, the personnel had already retreated, and there was a corpse on the ground, Xiao Jian stood there frowning.

Seeing Dongfang Hao approaching, he rushed over immediately.

"My lord, the person who poisoned him came out of the Minister's Mansion of the Ministry of War."

"Are you sure?" Dongfang Hao narrowed his eyes.

"Yesterday, the lord ordered to keep an eye on Cui Wenlian. Immediately, his subordinates went to investigate the mansion of Minister of War, and happened to see this person." Xiao Jian pursed his lips, with a quite sure expression.

Dongfang Hao narrowed his eyes slightly, and after examining it for a while, he said in a low voice, "Words spread that Ji Hanhao was poisoned and his life was in danger."

Xiao Jian was stunned, and when he rolled his eyes, he immediately understood.

"Yes, my lord."

He walked to the door, but stopped suddenly, with a hesitant look on his face, he hesitated for a while, then turned around, "My lord, I have something to report."

"Well."

Xiao Jian approached and said softly, "This subordinate couldn't sleep last night, tossing and turning, and a pair of shoes was always floating in his mind."

This sentence sounds strange.

Dongfang Hao's eyes were deep, "Don't go around in circles, just speak directly."

"Yes, my lord."

Licking his lips, Xiao Jian continued, "My subordinate followed the woman who administered the drug and saw her wearing a pair of light pink embroidered shoes with a plum blossom on the side. Later, I went to Mrs. Ru's gallery to check and saw Ms. Gu. At that time, Mrs. Ru was joking with her subordinates, saying that she wanted to marry us. The subordinates were embarrassed, so they resigned at that time. After that, I always felt that something was wrong. When I was checking the male corpse, I suddenly remembered that Miss Gu was also wearing a pair of pink embroidered shoes. That person changed clothes, but didn’t have time to change shoes.”

Dongfang Hao had a strange expression, and he stared at him closely, "Did you say before that Miss Gu is from Lin Changshi's hometown?"

"Yes, my subordinates have investigated it." Xiao Jian nodded blankly.

Dongfang Hao took a deep breath and shouted, "Hai Qing, check quickly, where is Lin Zimo now? If you see it, take it down immediately."

"Yes, my lord." Hai Qing answered outside.

A group of people waited, and they all started up.

……

Chu Sijiu's convoy was moving slowly, and when he was about to enter the city, he heard the noise of people outside.

She lacked interest and didn't bother to lift the curtain to check the situation.

The carriage stopped and seemed to be waiting to enter the city.

Suddenly, the curtain of the car was lifted, and a crimson figure appeared in front of him.Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Dongfang Hao.

Chu Sijiu was stunned, "My lord, why are you here?"

Dongfang Hao's eyes were very cold, and he looked at her lightly, "Can't this king come?"

Listen, this is awkward.

Chu Sijiu was in a bad mood, but he didn't want him to see it, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "Of course I can come, the prince has finished approving the memorial, come out to relax."

Dongfang Hao remained silent, examining her.

The carriage started to "tap and tamp", and there was a moment of silence in the carriage.

"Ah Jiu finished adding the sesame oil?" Dongfang Hao pursed his lips and frowned slightly.

"Yes. In the first three months, there was a double penalty, and then at the end of the year, the boss paid a huge amount of money. It hurts to think about it. The old abbot of Qianfo Temple is so happy, smiling so much that his eyebrows seem to be dancing." Chu Sijiu tried to think of some happy things, and the muscles on his face relaxed.

Dongfang Hao's brows also loosened, and he said with a half-smile, "Ah Jiu is so good at making money, don't be heartbroken. If you can make money, you can spend it, especially things like adding sesame oil. Maybe the Buddha will reward you as soon as he is happy." What does the richest man do?"

Chu Sijiu chuckled twice, "It's still the prince who will comfort people."

It was the first time for the two of them to chat so dryly.

It's all a little unnatural.

They looked at each other and remained silent for a while.

Finally, Chu Sijiu couldn't help it anymore, "My lord, what are you doing? Why do I feel that something is wrong."

Dongfang Hao looked at her quietly, frowning again.

Chu Sijiu was guilty at first, but when he saw him like this, he got angry and yelled at him softly, "Hey, if you have something to say, hurry up and talk about it, if you want to kill or cut, don't give me the way of silence. "

Seeing her blown hair, Dongfang Hao had a headache.

Squeezing his forehead, he said softly, "Ji Hanhao has been poisoned, I'm afraid he won't be able to survive."

Chu Sijiu frowned, and asked in surprise, "When did it happen?"

"This morning."

"Caught someone?"

"Caught it, but the man killed himself by biting poison."

"Then what are you doing at the gate of the city?"

"Yesterday, there was another person who poisoned her. Xiao Jian chased her halfway and let her run away. Today, Xiao Jian remembered who she was?"

"Who?"

"Gu Biqi."

After this question and answer, Liu De flew up.When it came to the last step, Chu Sijiu raised her brows high and high, her unexpected astonishment was definitely not faked.

What she and Lin Zimo talked about just now were all important matters, and Gu Biqi was not involved.

So, she really doesn't know what's wrong.

"what?"

This scream was so sincere that extra points could be added.

Instantly dispelled Dongfang Hao's doubts about her.

 There will be an update at 6:30 tomorrow. [This week's recommendation ticket plus 4. 】

  Basic three-shift time: 12:00, 18:00, 20:30.
