With a bang, Jia Dongliu was hit in the temple by a stone from Zhao An, and his whole body was shaken.
"Sending you on your way!"
Qian Yu grabbed the short knife and flew towards it. He raised the knife and dropped it. A head flew out and was held firmly by Chang Ming.
The headless corpse fell to the ground with a crash, and blood was everywhere.
The smell of blood was stimulating, and coupled with the receding adrenaline, Zhao An almost vomited on the spot, and his calves were shaking.
Qian Yu whispered: "I'm leaving first, you guys should retreat quickly."
Zhao Anzheng was eager for him to leave quickly. Fortunately, he didn't know that the masked one was Chang Ming, his father-killing enemy, otherwise he would have been a joke.
Chang Ming neatly put the head into the box prepared in advance and asked, "How did you and Qian Yu hook up?"
"The enemy of my enemy is my ally. Don't worry. If I were to harm you, I would have told Qian Yu your identity just now. There are not many people available around the Queen. We have temporarily formed an alliance with the emperor and used the relationship between General Qian Yu and Chen Guogong. Win back from a disadvantage."
"That makes sense, what should I do with this head?"
"Go back to the palace with the purchasing convoy. I will take credit from the emperor."
"Okay, Miss, I'll leave it to you."
Chang Ming jumped up and disappeared.
Zhao An looked at the headless corpse and spat.
Who would have thought that the most powerful general would die in a small courtyard like this.
On the other side, the auction house.
Zhang Qi returned to the scene. As soon as he sat down, Chen Yuan saw a trace of blood on his clothes.
His eyes suddenly narrowed, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he sent someone to look for Jia Dongliu. He had a bad feeling.
After only a moment or so, the servant hurried back.
"What? Dead!"
Chen Yuan was shocked and stood up angrily.
All the officials looked at each other, wondering what had happened.
Chen Yuan stared at Zhang Qi with a sullen expression, "General Zhang, where did you go just now?"
Zhang Qi was displeased, "Where have I been? Do I still need to report to the eldest son?"
"Okay, you don't have to say anything. I hope you can give my father an explanation."
After saying that, Chen Yuan walked away with a puff of sleeves.
Zhang Qi frowned, totally baffled, he just went to the hut.
The auction ends here.
Zhao An met Chen Yuru in the private room. Chen Yuru asked with a straight face, "Where were you just now?"
"Hehe, of course I am counting the money. You also know that these things are all made by me."
Zhao An said nonsense seriously.
Chen Yuru said displeased: "I was just about to ask you, what do you need so much money for?"
"Empress, do you think it doesn't cost money to train a prince? The black factory needs to be armed, and I want to protect you. All of these require money, and the internal affairs treasury is already empty. This money is for the protection of the prince, otherwise why would I? I have worked hard and I hope that the queen will not forget the kindness of my slave in the future."
Zhao An expressed his loyalty solemnly, and Chen Yuru smiled, "Now that you are serious, the reconstruction of the black factory will indeed be the capital to cope with changes in the future. I will never forget your contribution."
"Mom, it's time for us to go."
He Ye urged softly, Zhao An rolled his eyes, shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, it's so easy for you to come out. Why are you going back so soon? I want to accompany you around the capital."
Chen Yuru was very happy. She had indeed been in the palace for too long and always wanted to come out for some air. However, this dog slave was considerate and thought of everything for her.
In this way, Zhao An was like a noble prince, walking with her in the bustling market streets.
Stopping along the way, I even bought her candied haws, which made her smile brighter.
She was pregnant and about to eat something sour.
Further ahead is the palace. Zhao An touched his nose and said, "My dear, would you like to go and offer some incense to the old prince?"
Chen Yuru frowned and said, "Is this my fault?"
"Impressed, please think about it. The emperor relies so much on the old prince. Even if the emperor knows that you secretly left the palace this time, he will not blame you when he hears that you came to offer incense for me. In fact, he will be even more grateful to you."
Zhao An could talk death into life with his mouth. Chen Yuru pondered for a moment and reluctantly nodded, "For the sake of His Majesty's pleasure, I might as well go for it."
Chen Yuru had some love for the emperor, but not much. Mainly because she had to flatter him in order to consolidate her power.
The future she looks forward to is that Chen will trip up the royal family, and then she will compete with her eldest brother to protect the crown prince.
This is also the future that Zhao An has planned for her.
The future that Zhao An promised to Chang Ming was different. It was to help the imperial power to kill the Chen family, and then kill the emperor and support the crown prince to ascend to the throne.
Chang Ming never told the truth about this matter, because he was worried that Chen Yuru would still be interested in the Chen family. It was because of this that Zhao An was able to have both sides.
While thinking, the group entered the palace.
Qian Yu had just changed his clothes and came out to greet him.
Zhao An nodded secretly, and Qian Yu could only grit his teeth and squeeze out a smile, leading the way.
When she arrived at the mourning hall, Chen Yuru solemnly laid three sticks of incense and muttered silently in her heart, hoping that the old prince would not blame the prince, and that as long as he protected the prince's rise to power, she would be willing to bear the consequences in the future.
After finishing the incense, Qian Yu led a few people to the living room.
At Zhao An's secret suggestion, Qian Yu suppressed his grief and anger and treated Chen Yuru as a distinguished guest.
It seems to have grown a lot all of a sudden.
He even hinted in his words that as long as he could kill Chang Ming, he could support the prince in the future...
Chen Yuru was very excited when she heard this, but she acted very calmly.
At least the seeds that Qianyu can use have been planted, which is a big gain for Chen Yuru, who is weak and weak.
"Little prince, it's not good, Duke Chen is here."
Suddenly the servant stumbled into the living room.
Chen Yuru's pretty face changed drastically when she heard this, and she became a little confused.
Zhao An and Qian Yu exchanged glances.
The latter was injured and returned home just now. Many people saw it. If Jia Dongliu died, the Chen family would definitely come to investigate.
It was just right to pull Chen Yuru over to block the gun.
Soon, Chen Guogong arrived, and with him was the eldest son Chen Yuan.
Seeing his daughter disguised as a man, Chen Guogong suddenly stiffened and thought of many things in an instant.
Chen Yuan also had a similar expression, as if he was in disbelief.
Qian Yu, neither humble nor arrogant, stepped forward and said hello.
Chen Guogong ignored him, but stared at the embarrassed Chen Yuru, "Why did you leave the palace?"
"My daughter has been in the palace for too long and has come out to relax. I hope my father will understand."
"Absurd! As an emperor and empress, you should live in peace in the harem. If the courtiers find out, wouldn't they say that you ignore etiquette?"
"My father taught me a lesson, and my daughter took note of it."
After all, Chen Yuru didn't have the courage to face Chen Guogong directly. She lowered her head like a doormat and her aura was much weaker.
Chen Guogong snorted, then stared at Qian Yu, waved his hand, and a headless corpse was carried up, it was Jia Dongliu.
Chen Yuru had never seen a corpse before, and her face immediately turned pale.
Zhao An took this opportunity to step forward to block her, and said to Chen Guogong: "Your Excellency, my wife is pregnant and cannot be frightened. You have sent a corpse. What should I do if my wife is disturbed?"
"Eunuch Zhao, I didn't expect you to leave the palace too."
Chen Guogong had a cold look on his face, "Eunuch Zhao also wants to have a hand in my family affairs?"
