Jiang Lan shook his head, now it's not about You Xianye, but Chu Qingcheng.

Lan Sheng took a breath and continued.

After Zhuang Mei's death, Chu Zhaoping straightened Chu Huaiyu's mother against common sense, because since Chu Huaiyu was born, no matter how many concubines he took, Chu Zhaoping had nothing to do. I don't know what Zhuang Mei did back then. Anyway, Chu Zhaoping only had two children in this life, Chu Qingcheng and Chu Huaiyu, but there were many children of the Chu family. Chu Qingcheng was precocious since childhood. Although he had many quirks, he took good care of the people of the Chu family, and he was also good to his younger sister Chu Huaiyu. Especially after Zhuang Mei's death, Chu Huaiyu was his only playmate in his youth.

Lan Sheng finally finished all the scandals, and he only knew a rough outline, many details were beyond his ability to understand.

After Jiang Lan heard it, he was still not sure that Chu Huaiyu was the black hand behind the scenes. Although she sounds very motivated, because if something happens to Chu Qingcheng, if she can get the order of the head of the family, she and her parents will be the direct beneficiaries.

But is it because of jealousy, murder and framing her to implicate Chu Qingcheng by the way, or did she set up a bureau to frame Chu Qingcheng from the very beginning? Jiang Lan frowned.

Xia Henqiu suddenly said from the side: "So, now you are the head of the Chu family?" He looked at Jiang Lan, his tone was slow, as if someone was playing the cello in a complacent way, "The master of the Chu family in the heavens makes an order. Has it been in your hands?"

He suddenly increased his tone, "Isn't the so-called vested interest you? Why didn't you set up a game with others?"

"You're spitting out blood." Jiang Lan burst into anger, and really felt that a mouthful of blood was about to spurt out of his heart. She also suspected that the sesame and mung bean officials like him, who were looking for benefits, were the mastermind behind it. Who knows if he wanted to steal people's property when he saw money.

Lan Sheng shook his head again and again, with a look of disapproval.

However, Xia Henqiu continued: "What evidence do you have to show that you are not? Isn't the key to all of this lies in you? What's more, you are now the head of the Chu family, which is really profitable."

Lan Sheng didn't wait for Jiang Lan to burst into a rage, and said loudly, "Master Xia, please don't slander the Chu family master, the son trusts her, and the Chu family trusts the son." He absolutely believed in Jiang Lan, and he was only dissatisfied with the son's suffering because of her. He moved towards Xia Henqiu and said, "I beg your lord to find someone to meet the shopkeeper Luo who stayed in Xianju. If it's convenient, could you let us meet? Thank you Sir Xia here."

Lan Sheng struggled to get up, and his tone was sincere and painful, which made Jiang Lan calm down instantly. No matter what, they are now weak soldiers and can only rely on him, otherwise it is estimated that they will not be able to save their lives, so just say whatever he wants.

For a while, Jiang Lan felt that the sadness was coming from it, she could not die if she died, and could not live if she lived.

Soon, shopkeeper Luo came to this small courtyard.

When he saw Lan Sheng, who was seriously injured, tears flowed out, "Young Master is still in prison, but they said that your son's crime is conclusive, and they will not let anyone visit the prison. Now all the shopkeepers are in a panic and don't know what to do."

He turned his head and saw Jiang Lan with his head lowered. He hated and felt helpless. This woman who appeared beside Chu Qingcheng for the first time, this girl who made all the old Chu family feel relieved, turned out not to be the Goddess of Mercy, but the Chu family. A reminder.

Jiang Lan didn't know how to speak, and she also felt that she had no face to stand here, but she had to stand and bear the sharp eyes of Shopkeeper Luo.

Lan Sheng grabbed Storekeeper Luo, shook his head, and sighed, "Young Master passed the Patriarch Order to her. She is now Madam and the current Patriarch of the Chu family."

Shopkeeper Luo's eyes were round and incredulous, and Jiang Lan could not wait to bury his head in the mud.

He stood up straight, focused on the weak woman sitting on the side, and carefully examined it from head to toe, "Is she the wife? Is she the head of the family?" He looked at Lan Sheng, "This is a big deal, I have to tell the Chu clan elders to let them know. They come to determine the authenticity."

He turned around and was about to leave, but Jiang Lan hurriedly stopped him, "You call the old man here, don't say that the patriarch's order is on me, otherwise, Young Master Chu will be in danger."

Shopkeeper Luo looked back at her, nodded and left.

Xia Henqiu also looked at her from the side, and also felt a little unbelievable, Chu Qingcheng would entrust the Chu family to her, and when he heard that she had an accident, he lost his head. It's not impossible to get rid of this burden, there is always a way, why go to death and save her, it's really not worth it.

Jiang Lan was ashamed, but by the time shopkeeper Luo brought a few people, she was calm and ready to endure all kinds of humiliation.

Everyone was cleared, including Xia Henqiu and Lan Sheng, only Jiang Lan and three elderly people were in the room.

The three old people were standing in the center of the room, with a cage wrapped in black cloth behind them. They looked at her with calm and powerful eyes, and their eyes were very oppressive. Just looking at her made her feel that Mount Tai was on top.

"The master order is in your hands." one of them asked.

Jiang Lan nodded, then took off the chain around his neck and held it in the palm of his hand.

The old man picked up the left string leaf, took turns to examine it carefully for a while, and then put it back in her palm.

"Are you the wife of Qingcheng?" the old man asked, emphasizing the word "Mrs.", "The Chu clan of the Celestial Dynasty is different from the Chu clan of Nanman, and there is a rule that either blood or husband and wife are one, we can't let Miss Zhuang's The effort is cheap for outsiders. With all due respect, if you are neither, then unless you have the decree of the two patriarchs of Nanman and the Celestial Dynasty, we will not recognize your status as the patriarch of the Chu family."

The old man's eyes were very sharp, Jiang Lan understood, this meant a real husband and wife relationship, her face flushed, her eyes half lowered, and she nodded slightly.

The cage covered with black cloth was opened, and a large bird with golden feathers flew out from it. It squeaked and flew to Jiang Lan's head and circled around, then stopped on her hair and stretched out. A sharp mouth pecked. Jiang Lan instinctively wanted to wave away, but the bird had already flown away and returned to the cage with a strand of hair in its mouth.

Jiang Lan didn't know why, but the old people all laughed sincerely.

"Good boy, you are indeed the wife of Qingcheng. We recognize you. You are now the patriarch of the Chu family in the Celestial Dynasty."

Jiang Lan was confused and asked, "Why?"

The old man sighed, "Zhuang Mei was worried about Chu Qingcheng, so she planted a special kind of incense on him. This is Nanban Liu Xiangying. Since childhood, he has developed a love and sensitivity to this incense, so no matter where he is, he will It can be found, and it especially likes hair with this fragrance, and it won’t let go if you don’t bring it back to the nest. Only you can have this fragrance on your body if you are really a lady of the city. Otherwise, you can deceive people, but not birds. ."

Jiang Lan was a little ridiculous, and then remembered what Chu Qingcheng said, he said, "I'm sorry, forgive me, I have to do this, don't hate me." That's why he did that at that time, didn't he? He has paved all the way for her, hasn't he?

But, but, she... Jiang Lan felt that her blood was flowing backwards and surging, and some felt that it would be messy if it was not cleaned up. But no matter what, she must rescue him, she must rescue him, this is the only thing she can do for him.

Jiang Lan cheered up, "Since I'm already the head of the family, can I give orders?"

"Okay." The old man nodded.

"Then the Chu family is business as usual, what to do and what to do, and don't tell people that I am the head of the family. I am only temporarily acting as the head of the family. The head of the Chu family will always be Chu Qingcheng, and I will definitely save him." Jiang Lan's words were eloquent and eloquent, and he made a promise.
