Zu An's expression froze. Seeing the increasingly suspicious eyes of the other party, he said in a hurry: "Maybe it was because I was too poor when I was a child and had to work as a helper in a nearby restaurant. I didn't expect that the shadow of my childhood was still so deep that I became a
I’m possessed by inner demons.”
Yu Yanluo had also investigated Zu An's background before and knew that his parents died when he was young and he lived with his uncle and aunt. Not long after, his uncle and aunt also passed away one after another. One can imagine how hard his childhood was.
Thinking of this, she suddenly felt a maternal glow, and subconsciously wanted to hold the other person in her arms to comfort her.
But as soon as he raised his hand, he realized something was wrong and took it back awkwardly: "Those unpleasant things are over, everything will be fine."
"Thank you madam for enlightening me." Zu An felt guilty. He didn't expect the other party to believe him so easily, which made him a little embarrassed.
"Since you have nothing to do, let's go to bed early. It's getting late." Yu Yanluo covered her lips and yawned. She was already seriously injured. In addition, she was worried about Zu An and her energy was greatly consumed. At this time, she was really
Sleepiness is rising.
"Okay, good night, madam." Zu An nodded.
Yu Yanluo lay down again, turned her back to him, then huddled in the bed and rubbed her chest quietly. This bastard was so strong.
Zu An was now in a state of mind, and the other party's secretive actions were not hidden from him, and he couldn't help but feel extremely embarrassed.
Yu Yanluo was indeed too sleepy. She was a little bumpy at first, but it didn't take long before she fell asleep.
But this was very painful for Zu An. Smelling the faint sweet fragrance of the beautiful woman next to him, and looking at her graceful curves that could not be covered up even when wrapped in a quilt, he couldn't fall asleep...
Early the next morning, Yu Yanluo woke up, and her heart was really shocked. When did she fall asleep last night?
She hurriedly lowered her head to check her clothes and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that everything was in good condition.
She pursed her lips. She actually slept with a man in the same bed and fell asleep without knowing it. This was unbelievable a few days ago.
She turned around quietly, wanting to take a look at Zu An, but what she saw was two big red eyes.
She couldn't help being startled: "What's wrong with you? Why are the circles under your eyes so red?"
"I haven't slept all night." Zu An sighed. This woman is also very arrogant, lying next to me without any defense, using this to test the cadres?
"Ah, why can't you sleep?" Yu Yanluo asked blankly.
"With the most beautiful woman in the world lying next to me, there must be no man in the world who can fall asleep in that situation." Zu An sighed.
Yu Yanluo's face turned red and she spat: "You guy... I should have known better that I wouldn't have called you to go to bed."
After saying that, she was about to stand up, but then she lay down again with an ouch.
"What's wrong?" Zu An was shocked, thinking she was injured somewhere.
Yu Yanluo glanced at him resentfully: "You're holding my hair down."
Zu An's heart trembled and he hurriedly moved to the side.
At this time, I heard a commotion in the outhouse and planned to come in and ask Madam if she wanted her to dress up. But as soon as I arrived at the door, I heard the words "You have pressed my hair", and my heart skipped a beat: "Madam and the Duke."
Sleep together?”
As Yu Yanluo's personal maid, she naturally knew that her master and the Duke were husband and wife in name only, so why did they suddenly sleep in the same bed?
Could it be that this time when the Duke disappeared and returned, the lady finally recognized her true feelings and decided to sincerely accept him?
That's not right, they have been together as master and servant for so long, and the lady has never had any feelings for the prince between men and women.
She didn't understand what happened between the two of them, so she hesitated and finally didn't go in, so as not to embarrass everyone.
After an unknown amount of time, the door opened from the inside, and Yu Yanluo came out on her own initiative.
Upon seeing this, Xing Nu hurriedly rushed forward. Unexpectedly, the officials waiting outside heard the movement and rushed in one after another.
One by one they wanted to see the Duke of Yunzhong.
At first, Xing Nu and Gong Pan were able to block it, but as Sang Hong, Xu Yu, Pei Shao and others arrived, the situation began to get out of control.
"Mrs. Yu, we thought that the Duke was injured yesterday, and we didn't force it too much, but after a whole night of rest, the Duke is still unable to speak?" Pei Shao snorted, "Is it because he was seriously injured and couldn't speak, or was he injured and killed?
Are you so controlled that you can't speak, or are you even just a fake?"
After hearing his words, other officials immediately started talking, and each of them looked at Yu Yanluo with their eyes filled with vigilance and suspicion.
When Yu Yanluo didn't know what to do, Zu An came out and asked, "Who wants to see me?"
At this time, he had already used Thousand Faces to change into Jian Yanyou's face.
Seeing his appearance, a group of people had strange expressions on their faces. They didn't expect that it was really the county prince.
Officials who were friends with the Yu family had already begun to pay their respects. Pei Shao and others looked doubtful: "Are you really the Duke of the county?"
Zu An laughed dumbly: "I'm not, could you be?"
After saying this, a breath of air dispersed, and everyone felt a powerful spiritual thought sweep through them, and they suddenly trembled.
Everyone present was not a mediocre person. They immediately realized that this was the pressure that only a master could have. They were all horrified, thinking that the prince was the prince. Although his strength had been reduced due to the injury, the pressure on his soul was still there.
.
Naturally, Pei Shao didn't have the guts to question anything anymore, but Sang Hong was right and confirmed again: "Last night, Mrs. Yu said that Uncle Ming encouraged Jian Taiding to do those things. Does the Duke agree with what she said?"
Zu An sighed: "Yes, I only regret that Tai Ding was bewitched by a traitor. Fortunately, he found his way back and fought side by side with us at the critical moment. He deserves to be a member of the Jian family and my brother..."
As he spoke, he expressed his sadness vividly.
Yu Yanluo was horrified when she saw it, thinking that this guy's acting skills are really good, he wouldn't have been tricking me before.
But when she thought about everything the two had gotten along with, she gave up the idea.
After receiving personal confirmation from "Jian Yanyou", and the deep brotherhood he revealed with Jian Taiding in his tone was undeniable, a group of people finally believed it.
Even Jian Taiding's cronies, who originally planned to launch an attack to investigate, did not suspect anything, and they all angrily cursed Uncle Ming.
After all, in their opinion, Jian Taiding had indeed been in close contact with Uncle Ming for more than a year. It turned out that the guy was a monster who harbored evil intentions.
Then Yu Yanluo took out the edited audio and video stone to everyone. After reading Uncle Ming's various confessions, the last doubts in the hearts of the group disappeared.
For the next period of time, Yu Yanluo was mainly dealing with various aftermath matters.
Zu An used the excuse of being injured to go into seclusion, but it did not arouse any suspicion.
Because of his retreat, he was somewhat idle.
But for some reason, he always felt that he seemed to have overlooked something.
what is it?
After thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of any solution. In addition, everything was developing in a good direction, so he didn't worry about it anymore. He found an opportunity to secretly restore his appearance and returned to the imperial embassy.
Coincidentally, not long after he returned to the room, Sang Hong came to look for him.
After opening the door, Sang Hong was a little apologetic: "Azu, it's not that I want to disturb your healing, but there are some things that really need to be discussed with you."
"Uncle, you're welcome, please come in quickly." When there are only two of them getting along, the two of them should address each other more affectionately.
After Sang Hong entered the door, he sighed deeply and stopped talking several times.
Zu An laughed when he saw it: "Uncle, tell me what you have to say, so there is nothing to worry about in our relationship."
Hearing his words, Sang Hong felt warm in his heart: "Azu, you are one of our own, and I won't make any circles for you. In fact, this is the order I just received from the capital."
"Oh, what did the emperor say?" Zu An knew that there was a way to quickly communicate between the capital and the mission.
Sang Hong sighed: "The emperor reprimanded me severely and asked me to concentrate on my own affairs."
"Why did I reprimand you?" Zu An frowned.
"Although the emperor didn't say it clearly, based on the news we received, King Yan's troops have stopped in Yi County. It is probably because the emperor is dissatisfied with my private mobilization of the vassal king's troops." Sang Hong said with a bitter smile.
Zu An felt a little sorry for him and said: "Your Majesty, you just stand and talk without hurting your back. The situation in Yunzhong County was on the verge of breaking out before. It has reached an extremely dangerous time. Uncle, you are just going to mobilize King Yan's troops. Who knows what will happen next?" Solve it this way."
Sang Hong laughed at himself: "The emperor won't care so much. He will only look at the results. What can we ministers do? Naturally, we can only accept reprimands."
"The key is that our mission has not been completed this time. The emperor wants to take back the power of the Yu family and cut off King Qi's wings. But now that Jian Taiding is dead and Yunzhong County has settled down, I think there is no way to deal with the Yu family. ." This was what troubled him the most. The reason why he summoned King Yan's army before was actually to wipe out the Yu family in one fell swoop. Who knew that the plan would not keep up with the change.
Zu An knew that he had always been a royalist. Although Sang Qian's death made him feel some dissatisfaction and his own calculations, he had not yet thought about completely betraying the emperor, so it was not easy to tell him not to deal with the Yu family.
Already.
But he couldn't let his predicament go unnoticed. You must know that this appointment as an imperial envoy was originally intended to serve as a meritorious service. If things go wrong, the Sang family will most likely be in ruins after returning.
But now, whether it is Zheng Dan or Sang Qian's relationship with him, the Sang family's downfall will not do him any good.
