Chapter 319: Candidates

The Xiao family made such a decision, but the Hong family was unlucky.

Since you want to act to lure the snake out of the hole, the people of the Hong family can't let it go. Even, in order to make the play more realistic, the daily interrogation is carried out uninterruptedly.

Fortunately, Zhu Jinghan is in charge, otherwise, the people of the Hong family are afraid that they would have collapsed long ago.

At the same time, in the palace, on this day, after Mrs. Huo entered the palace to meet the Empress Dowager Xiao, the Empress Dowager Xiao immediately summoned the queen, Concubine Xian, Concubine De and Concubine Hua.

Empress Dowager Xiao was lying on the bed, looking haggard, her face was also very pale, and her long hair was shining with a little silver light, just a few days, Empress Dowager Xiao seemed to be more than ten years old.

"Mother, how do you feel today? Still dizzy? Is your chest stuffy? Is there anything else you feel uncomfortable with? ”

After Empress Wu asked for peace, she sat on the bedside of Empress Dowager Xiao and asked with concern, her eyebrows full of worry.

"It's much better, I've worked hard for you these past few days."

Empress Dowager Xiao said.

Concubine Xian, Concubine De, and Concubine Hua also greeted one after another.

After some greetings, Empress Dowager Xiao said: "I called you here today to ask you how the matter of choosing a few concubines for Sheng'er went on?" ”

Empress Wu was stunned, she didn't expect that at this critical time, Empress Dowager Xiao would still be in the mood to ask about this. After Xiao Xiao disappeared, the statement to the rest of the palace was that Mrs. Huo was not in good health, and Xiao Xiao went back to accompany her. However, this statement can be concealed from others, but it cannot be concealed from these well-intentioned people. It's just that I know what's going on in my heart, since the Queen Mother doesn't want others to know about it, on the surface, everyone still has to pretend to be confused.

Queen Wu hid the surprise in her heart, and said with a smile: "Look at my memory, Queen Mother, you are sick, I have forgotten this important event." Fortunately, the queen mother mentioned it today, otherwise, it would have been bad. ”

He said to Concubine Xian angrily: "I know that I am forgetful, why don't my sisters remind me?" ”

Concubine Xian smiled and said, "What can be more important than the queen mother's phoenix body?" One qiē is naturally focused on the queen mother's phoenix body, and it doesn't matter if the matter of choosing a concubine is delayed for a few days. ”

Empress Dowager Xiao shook her head and said, "It naturally doesn't matter if we delay for a few days. But this time, many of the girls who participated in the election have family members who come with them, and those who are not familiar with the place in the capital must have many inconveniences, and they must have been away from home for a long time, and the homesickness must be very deep. I can't let everyone delay for me! Besides, it is better to settle down early, so that you can start preparing for the marriage, and you can get married early, or you can start the royal branch as soon as possible. I'm sick, I feel that my health is not a little worse, no matter how late, I'm afraid I may not be able to see the birth of the emperor's great-grandson! ”

Empress Dowager Xiao sighed.

Queen Wu and Concubine Xian naturally comforted each other, but this matter was settled.

On the second day, under the auspices of Empress Wu, the concubine selection ceremony was held in a low-key manner, and the four princes elected their princesses.

Princess Liang is the second lady of the Dingguo Mansion, Shangguan Rong;

The second princess is Jiang Lihua, the third lady of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion.

The third princess is the eldest lady of the Fuguo Mansion, Concubine Nangong.

The fourth princess is Wu Xiaoyan, the second lady of the Changle Hou Mansion.

In addition to the main concubines, several side concubines and concubines were also selected, and after the marriage of several princes, they could enter the palace together and spread out for the royal family.

The result is settled, and naturally a few families are happy and a few are sad, so there is no need to talk about them one by one.

In a blink of an eye, it has been a few days since the results of the concubine selection came out.

The Criminal Department, in Min Bongxian's house.

"Why is there still no news at all?"

Xiao Chengche slapped his palm on the table again. Min Fengxian was heartbroken when he saw his newly bought table, and suddenly it fell apart again. What a loser! I don't know if someone else's money is distressed, right?

But now, the muscles on Min Bongxian's face twitched a few times and endured it.

When this matter is over, he will definitely ask his subordinates to deliver the bill to the Protector Mansion. This is the way a smart person does it, and dealing with these martial artists will only lose his style.

Although Xiao Chengfei, Xiao Chengxi, and Xiao Chengyuan did not touch Min Fengxian's table, their eyes looking at Min Fengxian were also full of anger and threat, fully showing their inner thoughts.

That is: if there is no satisfactory answer to this matter, they will not give up!

With such a sufficient signal, Min Fengxian just didn't want to receive it, and he had to be accepted. His heart was extremely depressed, where is this kind of thing 100% accurate, he just makes the best judgment and choice according to the situation. He is not a god, where can he be guaranteed to be foolproof?

Min Fengxian felt that he was very wronged.

However, he still wisely did not say this, at least not in this case, in front of the Xiao family brothers.

"Wait!"

"A little patience reads;!"

"There will be news."

Min Fengxian comforted the Xiao family brothers, which was also his heartfelt hope, otherwise, he would have to be torn apart by the Xiao family brothers.

"Wait? When? Wait any longer, maybe Xiao Xiao ......"

Xiao Chengche grabbed Min Fengxian's collar again and glared at him fiercely, but Min Fengxian saw that his eyes were red.

Min Fengxian sighed in his heart.

If something really happened to Xiao Xiao, would the Xiao family be able to withstand such a blow?

At this time, the official took a letter to Min Fengxian. Min Fengxian opened it and looked at it, and there was an address written in it, and there were two words: "Xiao Xiao." ”

Min Fengxian's heart jumped, and he hurriedly asked, "Who sent this letter?" ”

The official said that it was sent by a little beggar, and he explained that it must be sent to Min Fengxian's hands immediately. Although this is a bit strange, Min Fengxian knows some strange people very well, and this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened. So the official didn't ask, and directly brought it to Min Fengxian.

Soon after, a group of men hurried to the address written on the letter.

It was not the officials in the government who took the lead, but the masters led by the Xiao brothers, and Min Fengxian led the officials behind, a long distance away.

He originally planned to go in later, and if the news was accurate, it would also give the Xiao brothers some time to settle their personal grievances.

But when he was still far away, his nose smelled a familiar smell, very strong.

Min Fengxian's face changed.

Hurriedly greeted his subordinates, quickened his pace, and rushed to the destination. The destination was a very remote house, and at this time, the door of the house was wide open, and a door fell to the ground. The situation is unmistakable.

Min Bong-hyun froze.

Four bodies fell to the ground at a distance, blood staining the ground. The brothers of the Xiao family stood in a pool of blood, their faces pale. Xiao Xiao, I didn't see a figure.
