Recalling the attitude of the Fifth Prince at the Fifth Prince's Mansion that day, Su Liuye frowned slightly and didn't know what to do.
She has no interaction with the Fifth Princess and the others, but she is disliked by a large number of anti-fans.
Seeing her phone, Chu Yan frowned so hard that he didn't expect Su Liuye to have met the fifth princess.
He didn't want to say more for the time being and said to Guying, "Let's rest first."
Realizing that Su Liuye didn't want to say more, Su Liuye nodded, "Okay."
The medicine the doctor gave her had a soothing effect. Not long after she lay in bed, fatigue overwhelmed her whole body, and she fell asleep quickly.
Seeing her sleeping, my cousin's frown relaxed a little.
He sat beside the bed until a message came from the servant outside. He let go of Su Liuye's hand. When he went outside, he saw a teenage boy standing outside respectfully, "Mr. Chu, Mr. Xiao is back."
"Um."
Chu Yan responded and walked towards the hall.
When he entered, he saw Xiao Yun sitting aside, drinking hot tea. Perhaps he had learned some news from the barrage, so he was not surprised to see him coming over. He smiled and said, "Is there any news about Mrs. Chu?"
"Yeah." Chu Yan didn't say much.
Xiao Yun put it on the tea cup, "I asked on the way back. The murderer probably came in through the door in the backyard. He knows our place very well. He disappeared in the blink of an eye after taking the person away. If there is a thorough investigation, It’s a very complicated process.”
Chu Yan naturally knew that this matter was not easy. If it were easy, Xiao Yun would not say that.
The door in the backyard of the house is close to the mine. Many miners come in and out from there every day. It is difficult to find out who did it with such few clues, and that person may not be a miner at all.
"Do you know anyone who wants to take action against Mrs. Chu?" Xiao Yun was confused. "Logically speaking, Mrs. Chu has just arrived in Qingyang Town not long ago and doesn't know anyone at all. How could she be targeted? Could it be that those people have been targeting her all this time?" Follow her and take action immediately when you find an opportunity?"
Chu Yan didn't intend to hide it, and said, "A Liu told me that the fifth princess wanted to attack her."
"Fifth Princess?"
Xiao Yun was completely shocked now. She thought about many people, but she never thought it would be the fifth princess. Hearing the fifth princess, he quickly stared at Chu Yan. Seeing that Chu Yan didn't look like he was talking casually, he frowned and said, "Why did the fifth princess attack Mrs. Chu? It's because she knew about your relationship with Mrs. Chu. , do you want to get rid of Mrs. Chu, or do you want to use Mrs. Chu to threaten you?"
"neither."
Low words came from Chu Yan's lips, "A Liu said it was because she knew Zhou Yun'er was not the real princess, and the princess wanted to get rid of her and shut her up forever, so that she could keep this secret."
Hearing this reason, Xiao Yun was stunned for a moment and then sneered, "It turns out it's because of this matter. It seems that the fifth princess is very satisfied with Zhou Yun'er, the princess, and that's right. Now she lacks an excuse to please the Queen Mother. Zhou Yun'er appeared so timely, so naturally the fifth princess would not let this excuse be destroyed so easily, but she didn't expect the fifth princess to act so quickly."
"How long has it been since Mrs. Chu followed us to the capital? The fifth princess has already sent people to take action and even chased us to Pingyang Town. If this place wasn't an iron ore powerhouse, their methods would have been even more straightforward."
The Pingyang Town Iron Mine is owned by the imperial court. It has been used for mining and making weapons for many years. It is a very important place. Outsiders cannot enter or exit at will. There are always officers and soldiers guarding the area. This is why the gangsters last night cannot directly kill Su Liuye. , but to lock Su Liuye in the woodshed and burn him alive, which caused an accident.
Xiao Yun's eyes were cold and he played with the teacup with his slender fingertips. He didn't know what he was thinking of, but he said jokingly, "I think you should really thank me. If I hadn't brought you to Pingyang Town to help, you would have definitely gone back to shopkeeper Su in Xinqian, and let the fifth princess know about her. With your relationship, Shopkeeper Su’s situation is even more dangerous.”
Chu Yan glanced over with a cold look.
He felt angry when he talked about this matter. He originally promised to help Xiao Yun handle some things, but he was forcefully dragged to Pingyang Town by him, and he would not be able to go back until at least the next year.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong?" Xiao Yun was now confident.
Chu Yan ignored him.
According to his relationship with the fifth princess, if the fifth princess knew about his relationship with Su Liuye, the fifth princess would definitely not show mercy. He squinted his eyes, with a chill in his eyes.
Seeing his appearance, Xiao Yun couldn't help but laugh and said, "What are you going to do now? Shopkeeper Su came here to find me, probably because he knew that I was related to the Fifth Prince's Mansion and wanted to know how to get rid of the Fifth Princess from me. ?”
The fifth princess did take action, but she did not do it herself. In addition, she was the superior fifth princess. Su Liuye was just a commoner. Even if she had monstrous abilities, she could not deal with the princess. She could only find a way to avoid fighting with the fifth princess again. Princess contact.
"Um."
Su Liuye did mean this, and Chu Yan did not deny it. His fingertips lightly tapped on the table, and after a moment, he said, "Since the Fifth Princess wants to protect Zhou Yun'er, she can just start with Zhou Yun'er."
"you mean?"
Xiao Yun raised his eyebrows.
Chu Yan didn't speak. He dipped his fingertips into some tea and wrote something sharply on the table.
Xiao Yun looked over, then understood and showed a playful smile, "This method is indeed good, but have you decided to do this? The fifth princess is not a stupid person. She probably found out very quickly that it was you and me. I It doesn’t matter, anyway, the princess doesn’t like me very much, but what about you? Once you take action, there is no way out. "
"It doesn't matter."
Chu Yan poured out the cold tea and replaced it with hot tea. He took a sip and said with a coldness in his calm tone, "Even if I don't take action, the fifth princess may not let me go."
"That's right. Nowadays, there are frequent turmoils on the border, and the Holy Emperor is in his prime. He will definitely not let the barbarians invade his imperial authority at this time. Once the emperor puts pressure, even if the Queen Mother comes forward to intercede, the five princesses can only treat you get back."
Even if the Queen Mother's condition has stabilized, she is still too old to protect the Fifth Princess all the time.
The fifth princess must know this in her heart, and she will have no choice but to get Chu Yan back when the time comes.
Therefore, Chu Yan cannot escape this level no matter what, so he might as well take the initiative and seize more opportunities.
"Okay, since you have decided like this, I also know that I will risk my life to accompany the gentleman." Xiao Yun stretched out, with a smile on his face, winking and said, "To be honest, you are actually doing this for Shopkeeper Su, right? ?”
