Chapter 314: Hei Ni

Maybe it was because Hei Ni's silly "loyal servant" image in the past was too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, or the news of the assassination of the old emperor who had always spared his life was too unbelievable, not only the masters of the general's mansion, but even the thoughtful secret guards did not question the news brought by Hei Ni.

"The timing is too coincidental, and the emperor is likely to take advantage of the opportunity. The crowd who had been about to take a break immediately dismissed their thoughts, exhaustion draining away the only gratitude they had for the unknown Assassins.

"Mother, if the old emperor dies and several princes are busy fighting for the throne, they may not be able to take care of us. "When the seventh prince was born, the situation of the general's mansion was already much worse than before, and by the time he remembered, the old emperor became more and more stupid and violent. Growing up listening to the brutal deeds of the old emperor, it was really difficult for him to be in awe of the royal family that their ancestors and ancestors were loyal to.

The eldest lady was full of sorrow at this time, and now that she had escaped from the cage, she naturally was not in the mood to correct her younger son's "nonsense". However, although the younger son's words are not good, if you think about it carefully, it is not unreasonable, and she can't help but ask Hei Ni next to her. "Are you sure you really shot the emperor? How could the news of the poison on the arrow flow out of the palace so quickly?"

"I heard that when the emperor was assassinated, several princes and concubines were by his side. At that time, there was a mess, and several princes shouted louder than one another, crying and making trouble for the sake of filial piety, and many people heard it......"

Thinking of those princes who could act better than the play, the corners of the eldest lady's mouth twitched, and she could guess the scene at that time without Hei Niduo saying it. Speaking of which, it was also the old emperor's own sin. He was afraid that the princes would grow up and seize his power one by one, so he was stunned that one was counted as one, and they were all confined to the prince's mansion, and several of the grandchildren and grandchildren of the eldest prince had no errands, let alone other princes. The princes have no real power, and what kind of life they live depends on their father's likes and dislikes, one by one they have nothing to do and see the old emperor's ass, they have raised it for so many years, and they have no other skills. Of course, it's not that there are no good bamboo shoots in the bamboo, and there are one or two princes who can see it. It's just that the old emperor is willful and reckless, he likes to shoot well, and he ignores and even dislikes the "unpleasant" prince, and the nobles naturally respect those unfavored princes, and over time, those few people become transparent people and gradually fall silent.

After driving for several days day and night, seeing that there were no pursuers and no wanted notices, although everyone did not relax their vigilance, they were not as soldiers as before.

After doing this for half a month, when everyone was about to lose it, they finally arrived at the border pass and met with the people sent by the old general to meet them.

Hei Ni has been nervous these days, and even with the magical town as a buffer, she has lost weight at a rate that is visible to the naked eye. Now that they had arrived at the border pass, a whole team of sergeants had come to meet her, and Hei Ni suddenly let go of her hanging heart, and fell asleep as soon as her head was planted.

"Lin'er, Hei Ni is just tired, and she will wake up soon......" Seeing that the youngest son was holding Hei Ni's hand and didn't let go, the eldest lady was unhappy in her heart, but her face was full of kind words. "You are young and weak, what if you are sick......?

The seventh prince stubbornly pulled Hei Ni's thin wrist and didn't let go. However, although he was young, he also knew that his mother didn't like him to be too close to Hei Ni and the nurse, so he explained: "Mother, Hei Ni is just too tired to fall asleep, she is not sick, and she will not be sick with me." You go back to the carriage first, and I'll stay a little longer. ”

After entering the border city, the eldest lady was full of thoughts about her husband and a pair of sons who she hadn't seen for a long time, and when she saw that her younger son was so stubborn, she immediately got angry, didn't say anything, and got up and left.

The nurse who was guarding Hei Ni on the side was terrified when she saw this, and lowered her voice to persuade her little son: "Hei Ni has a nurse to take care of, why should the son make Mrs. angry?"

"Don't be afraid, mother, I won't blame me. The Seventh Prince thought to himself, even if his mother was really angry, he would have to stay by Hei Ni's side. If it weren't for him, how could Hei Ni, who had always been in good health, be tired?

Hei Ni slept for two days in a row, and when she woke up, she was already in the General's Mansion in the border city.

The general's mansion in the border city is very large, but compared with the rough but elegant mansions in the capital, it looks much simpler. Fortunately, after a few years of hard life, the female dependents in the house have been unable to bear it, and soon started a new life full of joy.

Compared with the female relatives who are still indulging in the joy of reuniting with their husbands' children and grandchildren, the men in the General's Mansion are not in a good mood. The so-called "people are not as good as heaven", they calculated everything, but they didn't expect the old emperor to die like this!

Yes, they had already received the news of the death of the old emperor, and with it, the edict of the imperial court ordering them to return to Beijing.

"No matter which prince inherits the throne in the end, he won't give us a way to live, grandpa, it's better to take the opportunity to do the opposite!"

When the others heard this, they couldn't help but look at the old general.

"Is Hei Ni awake?" asked the old general, who didn't seem to feel the gaze of his children and grandchildren.

"When I woke up, my mother said this morning that Xiao Qi was much happier and ate a bowl of rice. The eldest prince was stunned for a moment and hurriedly said.

The old general seemed to just ask casually, listened to the eldest grandson's answer, nodded, and didn't say much. However, it was interrupted like this, and the previous topic was not easy to continue.
