Xiao Jingshu's matter made the relationship between the Xiao family and the Qi family a little tense, but except for Xiao's mother and An's family, no one cared too much about how Xiao Jingshu died, after all, the Qi family gave the Xiao family a lot of benefits because of Xiao Jingshu's death.

An Shi didn't know what's wrong, such a big thing happened to Xiao Jingshu, she actually locked herself in the yard again after only showing one side.

Xiao Qiao lowered his eyes slightly, it seems that An Shi is not really stupid, and he probably has some guesses in his heart.

Five days after the spirit was suspended, Ying'e replaced another dead person who disguised herself as Xiao Jingshu with Xiao Jingshu, and took her out of the imperial city with Xiao Qiao's people. A pill was given to Xiao Jingshu to eat, and in the two days before Xiao Jingshu woke up, her appearance completely changed.

Originally, she was gorgeous, like a delicate rose with thorns, but now she can only be called delicate at best, and she can't see a trace of the original at all. Only her fair and silky skin can tell that she is a pampered eldest lady, and in other places it is not as good as Ying'e to look like a eldest lady.

And the Qi family, who had already been involved, gave the ministers a new reason because of Xiao Jingshu's death, and the Qi family suffered another wave of verbal criticism from the ministers. However, Emperor Huiming was afraid of the Seventh Prince after all, and he didn't do much to the Qi family, but only gave a verbal warning, and suppressed the matter that Qi Fenglan, the concubine of the Qi family, would have been promoted to a higher official position.

The Qi family was still in pain, for the sake of a woman in the backyard, they actually delayed their future, and they also lost a lot of smiling faces to the Xiao family, and many shops under the bottom also made profits.

And Xiao Jingshu, who was taken away, almost went crazy after waking up and seeing her face, she cared most about her appearance, and now this face that is not as good as Ying'e makes her want to cut Ying'e.

Ying'e sneered at Xiao Jingshu, who was completely empty because of the fake death pill before, lying on the bed, turned around and gave Xiao Jingshu's deed of sale to the old bustard in Hualou, and told her to look at her well and don't let her run away.

Mother, look at the person who harmed you, I will let her die a little painfully, just like you did back then.

The old bustard didn't dare to provoke the girl introduced by the proprietress, it is said that she is in the same door as the proprietress and directly obeys the orders of the pavilion master. After sending Ying'e away, the old bustard looked at Xiao Jingshu, who was still struggling, and waved his hand to the strong men outside the door, "A broken shoe, go and teach her the rules of survival here." ”

After Xiao Jingshu's affairs in the imperial city have calmed down, the spring festival will also begin.

The spring festival has always been the emperor going to the altar, one is to worship the ancestors, and the other is to pray for a good harvest this autumn, and the wind and rain are smooth. After that, he went from the altar to the Zhuangzi that had been arranged long ago, symbolically sprinkled a handful of seeds, and turned over the ground.

Originally, this year, the ministries were going to play for the three princes to go on behalf of Emperor Huiming, after all, Emperor Huiming was not in good health before, and the eldest prince who lived for a long time was divided out, and he was not even allowed to come back for the New Year.

But Emperor Huiming's recent health suddenly got better, as if he had never been sick before. Emperor Huiming was also good at riding and archery when he was young, and he was in good spirits recently, and the ministers said that they wanted to let the three princes go on their behalf before they could say it, and they were slapped to death by Emperor Huiming in the abdomen.

No one knows what the three princes think, but the three princes are in a bad mood these days, which is something that everyone in the Three Princes' Mansion knows, and no one dares to provoke the three princes at this moment.

The relevant matters of the spring festival are prepared after the New Year, in fact, the spring festival is a lot of complicated things, but there are not many that require the emperor to come forward.

Some of the others were taken care of by the two princes who are now adults in the palace. The third prince has always been active in the court and is much more active about the spring festival, while the fourth prince heard that he did not return from traveling abroad until before the spring festival.

Speaking of the four princes, everyone in the court knows about it. The biological mother of the fourth prince is a concubine, who is famous in the harem for not making trouble, and sometimes when the emperor is dizzy by the harem, most of them will go to chat with the concubine.

When the four princes were born, they were in time for the God King to be the most high-spirited, and he also loved the four princes. However, I don't know if it was due to the influence of the concubine or the prince's education, in addition to the poor cuò, this four princes who were loved by the emperor were dedicated to playing in the mountains and rivers, and even after the age of seven, he was sent to Xianshan Island and learned martial arts from the people in the rivers and lakes.

I didn't come back from Xianshan Island until the year of my hair, but I didn't stay in the palace much after I came back, and I spent most of my time outside touring the mountains and rivers, and I have almost run most of Dayu's places in the past few years.

Emperor Huiming didn't know what to think, obviously the talents of the four princes were stronger than the eldest prince and the third prince, but he let him have fun outside, and never thought about letting the four princes get in touch with the court.

Now the eldest prince can't recover in a short time, but the fourth prince can, his reputation is much better than that of the eldest prince, as long as he wants to, a group of ministers can follow him to support him in minutes.

In the eyes of the ministers, the spring festival is a good opportunity for the four princes to burn their fighting spirit.

Xiao Qiao watched many officials in his companions lean towards the four princes as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and silently rode their horses away.

He knew the four princes, in his previous life, the four princes only came back to guard the spirit after the death of Emperor Huiming, and then moved to his fiefdom with Rou Concubine, which is very close to the southwest of Xianshan Island, and never came back.

It's just that every year and festivals, I just ask someone to send back a lot of things, and I almost no longer have any connection with the imperial city. Of course, it was happy to see that happen at the time.

The four princes were annoyed by the ministers, so they had to put on a high-minded appearance and didn't want to pay attention to people, and finally let the forbidden soldiers around them stop them.

Emperor Huiming sat in the imperial chariot, squinted his eyes at the relieved fourth prince, and hooked the corners of his mouth, "Fuming, the appearance of Xiao Si has not changed until now." ”

Father-in-law Fuming lowered his head and smiled: "Your Majesty doesn't like the Fourth Highness, the old slave still remembers that His Majesty was reluctant to send His Royal Highness away." ”

Emperor Huiming also remembered his feelings when he sent the young Qin Yujia away, if it weren't for the fact that Concubine Rou only made this one request, he wanted to take Xiao Si with him, Xiao Si is more sensitive to government affairs than the eldest and third.

It's a pity that Xiao Si really doesn't like government affairs!

That's it, there are still a few small ones like Xiao Qi, so let's cultivate them slowly.

During the spring festival, most of the people did not have the opportunity to see it, and only a few people were able to pay homage to the holy face on the side.

Hu Li is one of these few.

Xiao Qiao originally wanted people to wait in Zhuangzi, but Hu Li was unwilling, so he rode a horse all the way and followed behind the royal car. If Xiao Qiao hadn't mentioned this matter to the forbidden army in advance, Hu Li would have been arrested as an assassin.

Even if Xiao Qiao mentioned it, Hu Li could only follow from afar. But Hu Li is not boring, the horses are kicking and walking leisurely, and he is also quite leisurely to enjoy the spring scenery.

On the altar, it was already ready. After Emperor Huiming arrived, the Ministry of Rites, Qin Tianjian and Taichang Siqing were all busy, and if there was a problem in this kind of big sacrifice, they would have to eat and hang up one by one.

The process of the spring festival was a little boring, and Hu Li looked at Emperor Huiming from a distance, and he didn't look like the Eighth Emperor at all. Emperor Huiming was tall and had a resolute face, while although the Eighth Emperor was practicing martial arts, and he was still practicing body exercises, he had a slender figure and a handsome face.

Hu Li nodded his chin, always feeling that Emperor Huiming and the Eighth Prince were a bit similar to Yu Jia. Thinking that Yu Jia said that he also had a home in the imperial city, did Yu Jia have anything to do with the royal family? Is it a cousin or a clan?

Hu Li was thinking about it here, the fourth prince had already met Xiao Qiao.

"Good day, Your Highness."

"Xiao Shilang, I heard that you accompanied the eighth brother to the northwest. What is the situation of the Northwest today? The fourth prince nodded, signaled Xiao Qiao not to be polite, and asked lazily.

"The situation in the northwest is changing rapidly, and when the minister returns, the affairs of the northwest are already on the right track. I believe that under the governance of Master Ji, it will be fine. ”

Xiao Qiao said something lightly, and the four princes didn't mind, he looked at Emperor Huiming, who was standing on the altar with a solemn expression, respectfully reciting the prayer, and said softly: "Xiao Shilang, if Hu Li doesn't want to stay here, I'll take him away." ”

Xiao Qiao frowned instantly, and his eyes became dangerous.

Hu Li didn't know anyone in the imperial city, and the only one he knew was Yu Jia, who was often together these days. Thinking of this, Xiao Qi squinted his eyes suddenly, Yu Jia, Qin Yujia, I see!

"The fourth prince laughed, where would Xiao Li go if he didn't stay here?"

The eyes of the four princes crossed the crowd, looked at Hu Li, who was standing in the distance leaning against a tree and yawning, and said with a lazy smile: "Xiao Shilang will definitely not be satisfied with the position of Shilang, Hu Li is not suitable to follow you in the officialdom." I like him very much, and if he doesn't want to stay in the Imperial City, I'll take him on a tour of Dayu. ”

Xiao Qiao didn't speak, and he also knew that Hu Li was not suitable for officialdom. So he wants to let the Eighth Prince have his own rights in his hands, and when the time comes, he only needs to give the Eighth Prince support behind his back.

In the meantime, he will let everyone know that Hu Li is his, and it can only be his.

On the altar, the emperor's words had reached the end. The four princes turned around and left, leaving a word before leaving.

"Hu Li should go and live a free life, and sooner or later his identity will be exposed in the imperial city."

Xiao Qiao looked at the figure of the four princes in the distance, and it seemed that people had to find out where the four princes had gone over the years or since they were seven years old. He would not be naïve to think that the words of the four princes were a coincidence, the four princes must have seen something, or some way to identify Hu Li's identity.

If this is really the case, the four princes must not stay.

The fourth prince had just intimidated Xiao Qiao, and he was in a good mood. Few people know that although his master has higher attainments in martial arts, the master is keen to be a heavenly master, and he still doesn't know where to fool people.

He has followed his master since he was a child, and he has learned a lot of things from his master, and he has no talent for the Heavenly Master, but he can still distinguish the breath that does not belong to human beings. And that little fox is not like the vixen in his impression, there is no twists and turns at all, and there is really no chance of winning when he meets Xiao Qiao, who is not a fox spirit but more like a fox spirit.

The real fox spirit Hu Li, who has no chance of winning: Hey, it seems that you saw Yu Jia?

Xiao Qiao, who is not a vixen and is better than a vixen: It seems that Xiao Li is going to be forbidden to meet with the four princes!
