Bai Qian went to Chang'an for half a month, and Hua Xun became thinner and thinner. I have something in my heart, and I am angry with Huadu, and it is difficult to sleep and eat. It's just that Hua Yan still has to provoke her from time to time.

Hua Du said goodbye to Hua Junhou, and Hua Xun had already left the city when Hua Xun learned the news. Hua Xun sat in the room weakly for a long time, but found that the begonia flowers were also gone. Her first thought was that Hua Yan had come to her room and asked Lily of the Valley and others, but no one knew how the begonia flowers were missing.

Hua Xun, who was already on fire, was even more furious.

"So many of you can't even look at a pot of begonia flowers!" A row of maids knelt down in the hall, and Hua Xun knelt behind the desk angrily, slapping the book case heavily.

"Slaves should be damned!" The crowd was so frightened that they couldn't bow their heads, and they didn't dare to look up.

"Damn it, damn it! In addition to these useless words, do you have anything to explain to me? Hua Xun swept away the bamboo slips on the bookcase, crackled and fell to the ground, she didn't look at it, and got up with red eyes, "Is this how you live up to my trust?" Search for me, dig three feet into the ground and find me begonia flowers! ”

"Sister, what are you doing here? I'm so angry-" The thin young man in a fan, dressed in a gorgeous costume, stepped into the room with a smile on his face, looked at the maids kneeling all over the ground, and said, "My sister doesn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, let the maids kneel on the ground, how cool it is." ”

"Ah Zhi, who allowed you to enter my Mirror Flower Garden?"

Hua Yan closed the fan with a slurp, and said proudly: "My father asked me to invite my sister to come over, and I came in on my father's orders." Sister, if you lose something, you can only blame you for not being able to protect it, no wonder you are such a maid. You are angry with the maid, is it not in line with your identity as the county lord of Huai'an? ”

"Did Mr. Zhang teach you to meddle in your sister's private affairs like this?" Hua Xun sneered, glanced at the lily of the valley and the others, and said in a relaxed tone, "You all get up and find the begonia flower to make up for it." ”

Hua Yan suppressed the idea of arguing with Hua Xun, and said unhappily: "Sister, don't delay time." ”

went to Hua Junhou's room with Hua Yan, Du Zhong was waiting at the door with a bowl of pungent black potion, and was about to push the door in, but Hua Yan, who was walking behind Hua Xun, called out to him: "Steward Du, I'm still here." Hua Yan took the medicine bowl, the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile, and the corner of his eyes looked at Hua Xun, and the smile was even bigger, "Sister, aren't you filial to your father?" Take this medicine in and give it to my father, and I won't go in. ”

"What's your trick again?" Hua Xunhu stared at Hua Yan suspiciously.

"What tricks do I dare to play!" Hua Yan smiled and said, "My father is sick, as my father's favorite daughter, isn't it just right for my sister to offer filial piety?" Here, hold! Handing the medicine bowl to Hua Xun, Hua Yan opened the fan, fanned it, snorted, and staggered away.

"Open the door." Although he always felt that something was wrong, Hua Xun still suppressed his dissatisfaction and prepared to go in with the medicine.

"Miss......" Du Zhong shouted to Hua Xun, and stopped talking.

"What's wrong?" Hua Xun looked at Du Zhong's worried look suspiciously.

Du Zhong's afterglow looked at the guards on the left and right, shook his head, opened the door for Hua Xun, and whispered: "The prince is resting, young lady, please be careful, don't wake up the prince." ”

Hua Xun nodded and entered Hua Junhou's bedroom. The candle flame lit up the room, but it was filled with the pungent smell of medicine, and there were dark water stains on the ground, and Hua Junhou was lying on the bed sickly, with his eyes closed, and he didn't know whether he was asleep or pretending to sleep. Hua Xun put the bowl on the table and waited quietly for Hua Junhou to wake up.

The air smelled of medicine and ambergris, and the cigarette curled up from the gilded censer, twisted and spread, and the windows were tightly closed, closing the door as if it were a prison. Hua Xun sat for a moment, suddenly feeling frightened, the cold air behind him rose, and the quiet atmosphere was terrifying.

The quiet and sleeping Hua Junhou seemed to be not breathing, his sallow face and cheeks were sunken, and he hadn't seen him for half a month, but he felt that he was dying. The sideburns are getting more and more gray, the eyebrows are tangled, and the wrinkles are getting more and more. Hua Xun was a little shocked, how could he be so sick? But she didn't know the news, and she really thought it was an occasional cold.

Restlessly, she walked lightly to the couch of the Marquis of Hua Jun and observed his appearance. For a while, he didn't feel Hua Junhou's breathing, and Hua Xun bent his index finger to test it with a white face.

Fortunately, Hua Junhou just fell asleep. Hua Xun breathed a sigh of relief.

"Father?" Seeing that Hua Junhou seemed to have the intention of waking up, Hua Xun hurriedly brought the decoction, knelt in front of the couch, and whispered to Hua Junhou.

"Hmm......" Hua Junhou slowly opened his eyes, squinted, and coughed.

"Father, please take in the decoction." When Hua Junhou was sober, Hua Xun entered the soup potion.

"Ask Tang—"

Hua Junhou drank the medicine, and his face was much better, but he still seemed to be groggy: "How long have you not seen your grandfather?" ”

Hua Xun frowned, feeling strange, why did Hua Junhou suddenly care about his ancestor's affairs.

"A few days ago, your grandfather was promoted to General Long Xiang...... He should have gone to congratulate his father...... Ahem......"

Hua Junhou closed his eyes, his gray beard trembled, and his voice was much brighter: "I can be sick for my father, but I can't go...... Why don't you go to Hedong for your father? ”

"The father is still sick, and the son should serve the knee......"

I can't figure out the joints here, Hua Junhou is still sick, and Hua Xun left Huafu at this time, just afraid that some people with a heart will have a chance. If it was to congratulate my grandfather on his ascension, he could have sent an envoy, but she didn't have to go.

"Well, my son has a heart." Hua Junhou opened his eyes, sighed and said, "However, after your mother passed away, your grandfather has always refused to see the person sent by your father, if you go, your grandfather will not not see you." He patted the position beside him and said, "Ask Tang, Hua Jieyu said a word to his father when he said goodbye to his father this morning, and he wants to tell you for his father." ”

"Do you have something to say to your father?" This is even more strange, Hua Du refused to tell her if he wanted to leave, but left a message for Hua Junhou.

"Anhe County is mainly married, and Hedong is close to Chang'an, so you can go to Chang'an by the way...... Congratulations to the Father. ”

The more I listened, the more confused I became. Chu Yan got married, and she should congratulate her, but why did Hua Du explain the matter of Hua Junhou. Thinking about it, the room fell silent for a moment.

"Alright, you go." Hua Junhou waved his hand and let Hua Xun leave.

Out of the door, Hua Xun turned around to see the doorman guarding, the door tightly closed, full of questions. The trip to the east of the river had to go. Besides, the promotion of her grandfather is indeed much more convenient for her to do certain things. If she leaves Huafu, she doesn't know how the ghostly monster hiding in the shadows will run out and make Huafu a miasma.

Hua Xun felt that these days, she must have ignored too many things, so she would feel that Huafu was strange.

Huadu said goodbye without saying goodbye, which made her deeply uneasy. What kind of attitude the grandfather who has not had much contact with Huafu is, and the flower inquiry is unknown.

Three days later, Hua Xun's carriage slowly drove out of the gate of Huafu.

On the top of the high pavilion, Hua Yan, who was playing with a fan, stood beside a man in a green shirt and said with emotion: "Such a simple plan to turn the tiger away from the mountain and inquire about the city does not look very good." ”

"Don't take it lightly, it's a big deal for the prince."

"Yes, sir." Hua Yan respectfully restrained and relaxed, "Now that Huafu is up and down, which one dares not to listen to me?" As long as the prince needs it, the students will go to the soup and the fire! ”

"Hmph. Do you think that if everyone in Huafu listens to you, you will be terrible? He turned and walked up the stairs and said in a deep voice, "Do you know where your father's belongings are?" And the power of Huafu in the Korean and Chinese army, do you also control it? ”

Hua Yan followed behind him and said respectfully: "Mr. has taught a lesson." ”

"Although this plan to divert the tiger from the mountain was set up by the old man, your father did not drive Hua Xun out according to my wishes, but let her go to Hedong."

"It doesn't hurt to go to Hedong. Although Gu Longxiang was promoted, he did not dare to act rashly and do things that were unfavorable to the prince. Hua Yan said disdainfully, "Hua Xun is just a granddaughter, and Gu Longxiang has so many children and grandchildren, how can he take care of a Hua Xun." Hua Xun's mother was killed, and he didn't do nothing? ”

"Gu Chong, the old fox, has been silent for so many years, and other people's official careers have risen and fallen, and he has risen steadily. Hua Xun went this time, but I think that Gu Chong will not let her suffer lightly. ”

"You won't support Hua Xun to grab the position of the lord of the mansion?" Hua Yan was surprised when he heard this, if it was really as he said, he was afraid that his hard work and calculations would come to naught.

"What are you afraid of, the position of the lord of this mansion must be your son's Yan, and no one can take it away. Don't say that I don't agree, even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not let anyone other than you sit in this position! ”

Hedong.

Since the death of the daughter of the Longxiang general Gu Chong, the Marquis Lady, the relationship between the Gu Mansion and the Huafu has been cold. Although Gu Chong had many children, his daughter died for no reason, so he couldn't swallow this breath, so all the envoys sent by Huafu were turned away.

Hua Xun's carriage entered the territory of Hedong, and Taishou immediately reported it to Gu Chong, but Gu Chong didn't know and ignored Hua Xun.

"If General Gu wants to be angry, he should also be angry with the prince, and if you have any dissatisfaction, you can't rush at our master. How can there be any reason for letting my granddaughter live in an inn? Pei Lan helped Hua Xun get out of the car and sighed.

I haven't slept well in the past few days, and I'm tired. After listening to Pei Lan's words, he pulled the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "This is a test of me." It doesn't matter, stay in the inn first, and save yourself from facing relatives who are eager to eat me alive. ”

"But if General Gu hasn't seen us all the time, what should we do?" Zeeland's worries don't have to be less than Perran's.

"If you're really that worried, do something for me." Hua Xun cheered up, squinted his eyes, looked at the fiery sun, and said with a smile, "I promise, within half a day, the Gu Mansion will send someone to respectfully invite me back." She was in a rare mood a lot better, turned her face, and smiled at Bai Qing, "Why don't we make a bet?" ”
