As soon as he pulled the reins, the horse under him immediately stopped steadily, Chen Tianyang turned over and dismounted, and said to the subordinates of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion: "I want to see your Mrs. Hou." ”

"General Chen." The servant hurriedly bowed his hand, "The servant will go and tell the lady." ”

In the mansion, Su Zhaoning and Nan Wanwan were sitting side by side, discussing the tricks of the mandarin duck pillow together.

Hearing the advice of the subordinates, Su Zhaoning's subordinates paused, and then ordered: "Go and tell the old ancestor that the Hou Ye is not in the mansion, and it is inconvenient for me to entertain guests." ”

In the main hall, Chen Tianyang paced repeatedly, anxious.

He had never been so nervous, not even on the night of his first expedition.

As soon as he thought that some words would hurt Su Zhaoning heavily, Chen Tianyang felt that there was a blunt knife piercing his heart.

Footsteps came from the doorway.

Chen Tianyang hurriedly turned around and looked at the door: "Zhao ......"

The word Zhao was stuck in the throat, and the person at the door was Mrs. Wu.

"General Chen." Mrs. Wu acted as if she hadn't heard anything, nor did she see the loss in Chen Tianyang's eyes.

Chen Tianyang didn't expect that it would be so difficult to see Su Zhaoning now. But he really wanted to see her.

He was afraid that she would not be able to stand it, and he hoped that he could be by her side when she was helpless and she was hesitating.

"I have something to discuss with Mrs. Hou, I don't know if the old lady can be accommodating." Chen Tianyang arched his hand.

Mrs. Wu sat on the rosewood official hat chair and ordered his subordinates to serve tea to Chen Tianyang. She smiled: "What did General Chen say?" Master Hou is not at home, and Mrs. Hou should be entertained. ”

Although he said that, Mrs. Wu did not order his subordinates to invite Su Zhaoning.

Chen Tianyang knew that if he continued to insist, he would definitely make Mrs. Wu unhappy, but he really didn't want her to bear the grief alone.

Chen Tianyang thought about it for a while, and said to Mrs. Wu: "I think it's better to have Mrs. Hou present for the letter." ”

Old Taijun Wu looked at Chen Tianyang in front of him. In fact, this young man, she is not the first time to meet. When her son was still alive, the Marquis of Weiyuan Mansion and the Marquis of Dingyuan Mansion were the same Jiangmen family, and the children of the two families were quite communicative.

And Chen Tianyang's swordsmanship was even taught by his own son.

Thinking of her son, Mrs. Wu relented after all. She looked at Chen Tianyang seriously and asked, "Do you have to see her?" ”

Chen Tianyang nodded.

Mrs. Wu asked people to invite Su Zhaoning and Nan Wanwan to come over.

Since you want to see the female dependents, please come over. After all, it is a matter related to the head of the Hou family.

Everyone can open the skylight and talk brightly.

Su Zhaoning did not refuse to come over again.

She walked into the hall side by side with Nan Wanwan, and although she greeted Chen Tianyang, she didn't really look at him.

Chen Tianyang hid the loss in his heart and said to Su Zhaoning: "There is one thing, I just got the news and came to tell you immediately." I just hope you don't grieve too much. ”

"There's General Lao Chen." Su Zhaoning was polite and detached.

Chen Tianyang clenched his fists and said, "Huaixin may not be able to come back in Youzhou." ”

Su Zhaoning didn't speak, and Nan Wanwan asked eagerly beside her: "Chen Tianyang, what do you mean that my brother can't come back?" For the Chinese New Year, you can't speak! ”

Chen Tianyang looked at Su Zhaoning and said word by word: "Huaixin went to Youzhou to run errands, and your house should also know about it." The water bandits in Youzhou were in trouble, the people were struggling to make a living, and the four princes and Huaixin led the will to suppress the bandits. ”

"The news sent back by Shen Shi said that the remnants of the water bandits assassinated the four princes, and Huaixin fell into the Youhe River to save the four princes, and his whereabouts are unknown." Every time Chen Tianyang said a word, he felt that his breathing became more uncomfortable.

He looked at Su Zhaoning in front of him without blinking, he was really worried about her.

Mrs. Wu didn't expect the matter to be so serious. She was still thinking this morning that her eldest grandson hadn't come to ask for peace for many days, and she didn't bother to talk to him about the winter clothes.

Nan Wanwan rushed to Chen Tianyang and asked him in disbelief: "What about the four princes?" Did they find my brother, hurry up and find it! ”

"The overboard was actually three days ago. I searched for three days, but there was no whereabouts. Therefore, the four princes reported the funeral letter and returned to Beijing. Chen Tianyang looked at Su Zhaoning in front of him, and he felt so uncomfortable for her in his heart.

"I'm just here to talk to you first. Later, I will enter the palace and ask His Majesty for a decree, so that he can allow me to go to Youzhou to find Huaixin. I will do everything I can to bring back the letter. Chen Tianyang didn't dare to guarantee whether the Nan Huaixin he brought back was alive or dead, he just wanted to go to Nan Huaixin in person no matter what.

Except for Su Zhaoning's reason, Nan Huaixin, that was his general friend.

"Ancestor! Ancestor! Mama Xu's voice suddenly sounded.

I saw that Mrs. Wu's face was pale, her eyes were closed, and her body was tilted to the side.

Nan Wanwan hurriedly supported Mrs. Wu, and before she could speak, tears had already rolled down.

"Go and ask Dr. Liu." Su Zhaoning instructed Mama Xu.

She looked up at Chen Tianyang and thanked him cautiously: "Then there is General Lao Chen." ”

After the thank-you gift, Su Zhaoning turned around and walked towards Nan Wanwan, she took out a silk handkerchief from her arms and handed it to the other party, persuading: "Don't cry yet." Things haven't gotten to the worst yet. ”

"Go and invite the little master over." Su Zhaoning commanded Baizhu.

Baizhu hurriedly took the order and turned around.

"The old lady is still unconscious, please forgive me for not going far." Su Zhaoning sent Chen Tianyang an eviction order.

Chen Tianyang answered, turned around and left sourly.

He had just walked out of the gate of the Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion, and before he could turn over and get on his horse, he saw the justice beside the emperor walking out of the sedan chair with the holy decree.

The father-in-law dragged a long voice and ordered, "Take the young master Nan with you too." ”

Nan Qichen was brought into the palace?

Chen Tianyang was a little worried, so he stopped and looked.

I saw another sedan chair come out and come out of a childish child. The child had bright eyes and looked at the person in front of him in confusion.

The eunuch turned back to the child and smiled, and said, "This is your home, child." ”

Chen Tianyang finally sensed that something was wrong. At the main gate where the herald and his party walked, he could only turn back through the side door.

The main hall was about to receive the order, and Chen Tianyang was waiting in the side hall. It's just that he was really worried in his heart, so he quietly went up to the fence with light skills to listen to the movement over there.

The eunuch with a long voice was chanting: "Fengtian...... The Marquis of Dingyuan sacrificed his life...... There is no successor...... Seek back flesh and bones to comfort their souls in heaven. ”

Flesh and blood!

Chen Tianyang looked seriously at the child who followed the eunuch again.

Children are still young, no more than three years old. On that immature and fair face, a pair of peach blossom eyes were shining, but there was a bit of Nan Huaixin's childhood demeanor.

How could she stand it?

Chen Tianyang looked at Su Zhaoning, who had finished receiving the order below, in a daze.
