Troubled Times: Start Practicing Spiritual Practice by Taking Care of Your Sister-in-Law

Chapter 548

The room was filled with heat. It was obviously the beginning of spring and the temperature had not risen significantly yet, but Xiao Yunxi could already feel her body getting hot.

In the bathtub, Princess Chu Ran of Zhaoqing leaned on the edge of the bathtub. Chen Mo took a towel and helped Chu Ran scrub her jade back, saying softly: "Your Highness's skin is so good."

Chu Ran felt that her delicate body was weak, and her whole body felt like an electric shock. She did not answer, as if she had not heard Chen Mo's words.

"Your Highness, can you tell me about the situation before the Xu family was ransacked?"

Although Chen Mo also asked Xu Ying this question, Xu Ying was in the palace at that time. Perhaps she didn't know as much as Chu Ran on the day of the mutiny.

Chu Ran suppressed the uneasy emotions in his heart and said softly: "Actually, Lu Sheng and Xu Xiang had a gap a long time ago. Xu Xiang also understood it, but Xu Xiang needed to rely on Lu Sheng, so he didn't say anything. He was still there at that time. "

"Who is he?" Chen Mo interrupted Chu Ran.

".Xu Qin." Chu Ran said a little annoyed.

Xu Qin, the eldest son of Xu Mansion and Chu Ran’s deceased husband.

"Oh, keep talking." Chen Mo put the towel on the screen beside him.

"He told me more than once in private that Xiang Xu is already old. In the future, the Xu family will need to rely on Lu Sheng and need Lu Sheng's protection, so Xiang Xu asked him to get closer to Lu Sheng." Chu Ran's words suddenly changed. pause.

Just because Chen Mo's hand passed through Chu Ran's armpit and came to her, wanting to see how broad-minded she was.

Chu Ran's voice was almost like humming from the nasal cavity: "Don't do this."

This person is really too bold to act like this in front of his face.

Feeling the tenderness between his palms, Chen Mo suddenly embraced Chu Ran's plump body, smelled the fragrance between the beauty's hair, his heart moved slightly, and he said warmly:

"Xu Guozhong was afraid that his descendants would be retaliated by others after his death, so he still pretended not to know that he was being cannibalized by Lu Sheng. He just wanted Lu Sheng to protect the Xu family out of kindness. But who knew that Lu Sheng was so ambitious that he obviously wanted to take advantage of him in advance? of more”

Chu Ran's whole body felt like an electric shock, and all the strength in his body seemed to be drained out at this moment. He groaned, his face was as hot as fire, and he was unable to refuse Chen Mo's embrace.

She noticed Xiao Yunxi's eyes staring at her intently, and said angrily: "Don't look."

Xiao Yunxi didn't want to look, but her delicate body seemed to be frozen at the moment, unable to move. Her heart was filled with ripples. After calming down for a while, she quickly turned her face away.

Chen Mo leaned over and kissed Chu Ran's jade back, and said, "Your Highness, please continue to talk to me."

Chu Ran's mind was very uneasy. He clung to the edge of the tub with his delicate fingers and said with a trembling voice, "Actually, this peace was broken by Xu Yu."

"How do you say that?" Chen Mo knew that Xu Yu was Xu Guozhong's youngest son and a domineering master.

"I heard that he fell in love with the woman of Lu Sheng's junior brother Huicheng, so he had a conflict with Huicheng. Huicheng didn't seem to know Xu Yu's identity, so he beat him. Xu Yu naturally couldn't swallow this, so he asked someone to Huicheng was arrested and tortured severely, and this incident made both Xu Xiang and Lu Sheng unhappy." As he spoke, Chu Ran raised his head sharply, and his pupils dilated slightly. .

Xiao Yunxi's face turned even redder, and her eyes peeked over from time to time.

"Huicheng."

Chen Mo's face paused slightly. He had heard Chang En mention this person. Chang En's junior brother seemed to be stronger than Chang En and was a talented person.

Chen Mo gathered up Chu Ran's hair that was scattered behind his back and said: "So Xu Yu has offended Lu Sheng's party with this move. Even if Lu Sheng can let it go, Huicheng will definitely not be able to swallow this breath after Xu Guozhong's death. To be liquidated.

Xu Guozhong must have understood this, and had no choice but to fight against Lu Sheng, but he didn't expect that the other party was superior. "

Chu Ran snorted softly, biting her lips with her teeth, her heart beating lightly, and said: "I heard that the top brass in the army are all Lu Sheng's people, and even Xu Guozhong's confidants were bribed by Lu Sheng. The news of the attack had already been known to Lu Sheng."

Xiao Yunxi didn't have the courage to peek, but looked at the screen on the side. She saw two figures projected on the huge screen. The same thing was that both of them were bent, bowing forward and then arrogantly. .

"It is so painful for Your Highness to suffer such an unreasonable disaster. The good royal princess was actually implicated and demoted to a slave. I feel heartbroken." Chen Mo said.

Chu Ran: "..."

Okay, okay, that's how you feel about me, right?

Am I still going to suffer again?

But before he could think about it for too long, Chu Ran was involved in the violent wind and waves.

I don't know how long it took for the water in the bathtub to cool down, and the steaming heat rising from the heat in the wing also dissipated.

Xiao Yunxi's eyes had already moved from the screen to Chu Ran. Her mature and beautiful face was as red as drunkenness. As a fifth-level warrior, she almost felt unsteady on her feet.

She was a bystander the whole time.

"What are you looking at? Come and help." Chen Mo also stopped for the moment and waved to Xiao Yunxi.

"Ah?" Xiao Yunxi hasn't reacted yet.

"Still stunned? Come here yet. As an elder, you don't care about the younger generation at all."

Chen Mo picked up Chu Ran from the bathtub and handed it to Xiao Yunxi who was approaching.

As a middle-grade warrior, Xiao Yunxi should have no problem carrying a woman weighing less than a hundred kilograms.

But the moment she took Chu Ran from Chen Mo, Xiao Yunxi was almost hugged and fell to her knees. At the critical moment, Chen Mo grabbed Xiao Yunxi's arm and helped her.

"Why, didn't you eat?" Chen Mo smiled meaningfully.

Xiao Yunxi glared at Chen Mo, as if to say that you know it well.

She shook off Chen Mo's hand and walked towards the bed with Chu Ran in her arms.

As a result, she just put Chu Ran down and covered him with a quilt, but she didn't expect that Chen Mo, who was still in the bathtub, suddenly appeared behind her and hugged her: "Yunxi, you must be anxious."

Before she could reply, the next second, she was hugged by Chen Mo and put on the bed.

...

On the other side.

In Xu Ying's room.

Xu Ying naturally learned about what happened outside recently.

After all, she was a queen and the daughter of the former prime minister. She was very sharp-minded. She realized that Chen Mo was a big deal and began to build a ladder to climb up.

If that day really comes, she left there in disgrace as a consort, and then she can return as a concubine.

Maybe it's possible.

"Madam, Duke Anguo has come to Tongque Garden."

Just as Xu Ying was thinking, the maid's words rang out outside the house.
