"Go back first, it's windy outside." Chu Yan put his hand on her slender waist, but it felt empty. He frowned and his eyes fell on Su Liuye's waist. He really didn't expect that she had lost so much weight.
Chu Yan felt even more uncomfortable when he thought that he had left Su Liuye for so long after bringing him to the capital.
"good."
Su Liuye glanced at the man's hand on her waist, and her heart beat faster again. Through her clothes, she could still feel the warmth between Chu Yan's palms.
Back in the hall, the cold wind from the outside world was blocked.
Chu Yan poured her a cup of hot tea and asked her to take a sip first and then go back to explain the matter to the people outside.
Su Liuye vaguely heard them talking about the iron mine. It seemed that they were going to mine the iron ore and had to deal with it all before winter.
Seeing Chu Yan ordering these people in an orderly manner, Su Liuye was slightly stunned. For some reason, she felt that the people in front of her were a little strange.
Chu Yan is just a hunter in the village, why does he know so much? He easily became the leader of the mining mountain, leading a group of people.
Moreover, I don't know if it was her illusion, but Chu Yan carried a cold and arrogant aura in his movements. He seemed to be born to be a leader, and he didn't look like a hunter in the village at all.
After Chu Yan settled everything, he took her back to the room and closed the windows and doors to prevent the cold wind from blowing in.
"Are you feeling better now?"
Chu Yan took her to the bedside, held her slightly cold hand, and asked softly.
Perhaps because the distance was too close, Su Liuye could almost smell the frost on her body. She nodded and said, "Husband, are you going to work here recently?"
"Yes, this is the job assigned to me by Mr. Xiao." Chu Yan said, but something flashed quickly in his eyes, as if he was hiding something.
Su Liuye looked at him, her mood changed slightly, and she felt that Chu Yan was deceiving her.
She didn't know why, but she always felt that Chu Yan was hiding many things from her and was unwilling to tell her more.
Su Liuye sighed softly and was about to speak when her hand was held by a warm hand. She was slightly startled, and looked up to see Chu Yan looking at her distressedly, his fingertips stroking her hand carefully, as if to dispel the coldness in her hand.
"Husband..."
"Why did you come here to find me? Did something happen?"
Chu Yan's voice was low and soft.
Su Liuye felt her ears itching as she listened, which made her heart beat faster.
She quickly lowered her head, not daring to look at the man in front of her.
After a moment of silence, she said, "Husband, do you know about the fifth princess in the capital? I have something to ask Master Xiao about the fifth princess."
"Fifth Princess?"
A strange look flashed in Chu Yan's eyes, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Su Liuye thought, "Didn't the Fifth Prince's Mansion come to our town to look for some princess? Finally, they found Zhou Yun'er and said that Zhou Yun'er was the princess of the Five Prince's Mansion, so they took Zhou Yun'er away. But you I also know what kind of relationship Zhou Yun'er has with me, and I don't know if Zhou Yun'er said something to the Fifth Princess. Now the Fifth Princess has been targeting me, and most of the people who took me away yesterday were from the Fifth Princess."
"What!?"
Chu Yan looked at it immediately, and the sharpness in his eyes scared Su Liuye.
"Husband, what's wrong with you?" Su Liuye asked in shock.
Chu Yan's face was gloomy. After being silent for a while, he asked, "A Liu, is the reason why the fifth princess attacked you because you knew about Zhou Yun'er?"
"That's how it should be."
Su Liuye sighed. Now that she had come to find Chu Yan and the others, there was no need to keep hiding the matter. She picked out many key points and said to Chu Yan, "The young master of the Liu family helped me investigate Zhou Yun'er's matter and found that she The dragon-patterned jade pendant does not exist at all. Some time ago, her mother went to Liu’s store to buy an identical dragon-patterned jade pendant.”
"This jade pendant was placed on the princess by the fifth princess to identify the princess. Zhou Yun'er didn't have that jade pendant on her body at all, but the fifth princess admitted her identity. There must be some inside story. The fifth princess didn't know. Why does she know this and now she thinks it was planned by me and wants to get rid of me and keep the secret."
After hearing her words, Chu Yan's face became even more uncomfortable, and a chill flashed through his eyes from time to time.
When they found Su Liuye last night, Su Liuye was locked in the woodshed with a raging fire burning. If he had come later, Su Liuye might really be burned alive.
This is indeed the method of the fifth princess...
The hand hanging by his side was clenched into a fist. Chu Yan narrowed his eyes, with a cold aura surrounding him.
Su Liuye knew that he was angry and said quickly, "Husband, I met an old man in the capital. He was the royal chef in the palace, and his cooking skills were deeply loved by the late emperor. When he left the palace, the late emperor specially gave him The emperor gave me a jade pendant, which is equivalent to a gold medal to avoid death. When I came to find you, the old man gave me the jade pendant."
With that said, she took out the jade pendant from her arms, just wanting to prove to Chu Yan that she was fine now.
Chu Yan took the jade pendant and looked at the dragon carvings on the jade pendant, his eyes suddenly became profound again. His rough fingertips touched the surface of the jade pendant, and after a moment, he returned the jade pendant to Su Liuye.
"Since the old man gave it to you, you should keep it well."
"Um."
Su Liuye carefully put the jade pendant away, put it in her money bag, and put it away properly. She added, "Husband, I heard that Mr. Xiao is a disciple of the Fifth Prince. I came here to ask Mr. Xiao about something related to the Fifth Princess. The Fifth Princess has been harassing me like this. If I don't know how to fight back, reliance."
"He still has some things to be busy with. He probably won't come back until evening." Chu Yan said, bending down to tidy up the quilt, "A Liu, come here and rest."
"good."
Su Liuye also felt a little cold and followed Chu Yan's movements and lay down on the bed.
She didn't know if it was because of the heavy smoke last night. She always felt uncomfortable in her throat, but the doctor said that these were normal conditions and that she would just need to rest for a few more days.
"What have you been doing in the capital during this time?"
Chu Yan sat beside the bed, and his deep voice sounded very reassuring. He put his hand on the back of his hand through the quilt. Su Liuye felt the warmth in his palm and whispered about her experience during this period.
It was nothing more than opening a store in the capital and going to the Fifth Prince's Mansion and Princess Anyang's Mansion.
Hearing these words, Chu Yan looked over intently, "Have you been to the Fifth Prince's Mansion?"
"Yes, I also met the Fifth Prince's Mansion that day. I don't know why, but the Fifth Princess was dissatisfied with me when she first met me."
