p > The maids and eunuchs who were originally hiding in the corner heard this, and they all softened their legs, and they cursed in their hearts. Where is this life-saving, it's obviously a life-saving order. Even if this is not true, the concubine will keep their mouths shut forever in order to stop the message.

p > sure enough, the middle-aged beauty immediately sat up straight and sneered, "I thought you were just listening to a little bit of skin, but I didn't expect it to be like this... Hmph, Mama Wei, it's all dealt with! ”

p> A look of surprise flashed in the old woman's eyes when she heard this, but she turned around and bowed down and replied, "Yes, mother." ”

p > even if the palace maids and eunuchs were stupid, they would smell out the dangerous information at this time, and a little eunuch closest to the entrance of the main hall screamed, and even crawled to escape for their lives.

p > the old lady flew forward, and with a gentle wave of her hand, the little eunuch fell to the ground, and then vomited black blood and died.

p> His death was like a bowl of water poured into a pan of oil, instantly arousing everyone's fear. Everyone was in a mess, some went under the table, some opened the window and wanted to jump out, but without exception, they were all taken by the old lady lightly.

p > blink of an eye, the hall that was still very empty was almost full of corpses.

p > old lady turned around and walked back to the middle-aged beauty, gasping slightly and said, "Niangniang, none of them are alive, they are all disposed of." After that, she slowly retracted her right hand that was glowing with jet black, and asked in a low voice, "I don't know, how do the Empress Dowager and the Emperor answer correctly?" ”

p> middle-aged beauty smiled faintly, raised her right hand very gently and helped the golden phoenix hairpin on her head, and smiled disdainfully, "The emperor is my son, and he has no right to question what I say." As for the Empress Dowager, that old immortal... Hum! He reported to her that an assassin had entered the palace to commit murder, and that these minions were loyal to the Lord and had commendable courage. ”

p > old lady rolled her eyes, and echoed with a smile, "Niang Niang is wise, the only thing the Empress Dowager can rely on is the stupid prince who lives in the South China Sea, and the sect leader will send someone to remove him." The Empress Dowager is a toothless tiger, and she is not left to her mother's struggle. ”

p > Xu remembered that she had served the Empress Dowager all these years, and the middle-aged beautiful woman only pinched the armrest of the chair tightly, her knuckles began to white, and her eyes were full of cold smiles, "As long as the Murong family's bloodline is forbidden, I see who can still snatch my son's country." ”

p > I don't know if the sky can't see the viciousness of this middle-aged beauty, and the wind outside the window is raging more and more on the grass and trees around the emperor, making a ruggy sound. The torrential rain poured down like a pour, and the entire palace was like an isolated island swaying in the ocean, eerie and terrifying.

p > Soon, the guards who were lazy in the guard office received the news that the Gyeongwon Palace had been attacked by assassins, and there were countless casualties.

P > and the other guards were so frightened that they threw pigs' trotters and dice directly, and ran madly outside the main hall, only to see the dead bodies all over the ground, and they fell to their knees in fright.

p > If it were elsewhere, they might still ask someone to ask for a favor, but here lives Concubine Bo, now the mother of His Majesty the Emperor. How could the emperor not be angry?

> only the only thing that made them feel a little more at ease was that Concubine Bo was still sitting on the chair, except for her face as white as paper, there was no other injury.

p> Sure enough, the emperor quickly arrived in the heavy rain. Although he is only thirteen years old, the young son of heaven is very majestic. However, after a cold glance, the guards kneeling at the door broke out in a cold sweat on their backs, and each of them silently recited, "Today's life is over." ”

p > Fortunately, Concubine Bo did not live up to her reputation in the palace for many years, and even in the court, and after crying a few times in her arms, she began to intercede for the guards.

p > young man is a filial man, and he spared the death penalty of many guards according to his mother's wishes, but it is impossible to miss the living crime. Thirty boards for one person, and it fell down solidly.

Most of the > guards were beaten to death, but they still thought about Concubine Bo's goodness, and after waking up, they dragged their half-rotten butts around to track down the assassin. But they didn't know that the culprit they were looking for was standing beside Concubine Bo and the emperor, waiting for refreshments with low eyebrows.

In the Cining Palace not far from the >, the empress dowager, who was already dying, was bowing her head and listening to the proclamation of the personal eunuch, and finally waved her hand to signal the palace maids in the dormitory to retreat. Only then did he look out the window and sneered, his originally dim old eyes were shining, and he whispered, "What secret did she hide, and she actually killed all the palace people?" Hmph, the wings are stiff, and it's really foolish to be a mourner. ”

P> "Someone! ”

P> "The minions are here!" The old eunuch who had just come in to report quickly came over from some shadow and bowed in response.

p > the old empress dowager narrowed her eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Take advantage of the change of hands in Qingyuan Palace, and choose more clever past." No matter what happens, it must be reported to the mourning family word for word. ”

P> "Yes, Galeries Lafayette." The old eunuch answered in a low voice, and walked out quickly.

p > Empress Dowager closed her eyes, and her subordinates chanted Buddhist scriptures in a low voice while turning Buddhist beads. I don't know if it is the early ascension of the souls of the unjustly deceased, or the prayer for the peace of the royal family...

p> Seeing that autumn is coming, the weather in Haining is rarely a little cooler these days. The sun no longer scorched the beach and began to cruise lazily through the skies. When the monsoon stopped, all the ships in the harbor had sailed away, leaving three or five red horse boats to patrol the sea outside the harbor from time to time.

p> The autumn accounting of the Dong family firm had already begun, and the top ten shopkeepers sent the most effective stewards to send the account books, which were full of three large sandalwood boxes.

p > Dong Rong and Murong Huaide sat at the table opposite each other, flipping through the account books in their hands, occasionally turning their heads to inquire about the stewards who were quietly waiting on the side, and at the end of the reward or punishment, one order after another was sent out, and they were so busy that they didn't even have time to eat.

p> After three days of this, at last, the last book of accounts was turned over, and the steward set out on his way home again with joy or discouragement.

P > left Dong Rong and his wife leaning together while eating sorbet and discussing chores with each other.

p > Murong Huaide saw that his wife was so tired that there was a shadow under her eyes, so he said distressedly, "The business of the commercial bank is now big enough, not to mention the restaurants, jewelry houses and Huitong money houses all over Daqi, only that the fleet at sea also has to go back and forth several times a year, and the family property is enough for a few children to eat for a few lifetimes." You don't have to think about expanding your business anymore, it's too tiring. ”

p> Dong Rong turned her head to see that there were no outsiders in the room, so she smiled and leaned on her husband's shoulder, and said coquettishly, "I don't do business for money, I just pass the free time." Do you want me to have nothing to do all day, and then wonder if a certain little sister has feelings for you, why a certain famous prostitute has found Haining thousands of miles away..."

When Murong Huaide heard this> he immediately coughed in embarrassment, and finally complained in a low voice, "Didn't you promise not to mention these two things again?" Senior Sister Ah Jiu was entrusted to me by Mr. Feng to take care of her, and I treated her like a brother and sister. As for the red jade girl, she was simply attached to it, and I had no idea that she would find here. ”

p> Dong Rong slowly sorted out her aqua blue dress, and saw that her husband's anxious face had changed, so she changed her smile and said angrily, "I'm just casually talking about what you are doing so seriously." ”

p > Murong Huaide smiled bitterly, and sighed in his heart, if he didn't explain, I was afraid that he would not have a good life. Women, what a master of acting is a set of words and a set of hearts.

p> has been married for many years, how could Dong Rong not know what her husband was thinking, reached out and pinched his waist and threatened, "Are you secretly saying bad things about me again?" ”

P> "The little one doesn't dare, Madame spares her life." Murong Huaide pretended to be pitiful, and sure enough, it made his daughter-in-law laugh.

p > he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly slandered to himself, this Haining can't live anymore, if there is another person who wants to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, he will be unable to tell if he has a full mouth.

P> God heard his calculations and actually sent a messenger with understanding. A red horse boat rushed over from Taoyuan Island, and the news was that the old lady of the Cao family had somehow contracted the wind cold and had been bedridden for three days.

p> Dong Rong is the most filial, although when she first married into the Cao family, she was angry with Mrs. Cao, but after getting along all these years, she was also treated as her own mother. In particular, the three children in the family were almost all raised under the care of Mrs. Cao and Aunt Cao, so it was reasonable for them to go back to see it at this time.

P> Wang Zhou docked in the harbor for more than half a month, and finally slowly raised the sail and sailed to the depths of the sea, some tea guests saw this and threw down the tea bowl in their hands, and gathered by the window to see the majesty of the king's boat. The children had no scruples, waving and shouting barefoot on the beach.

p> The boatman on the king's boat laughed and shouted, which was in response to everyone's farewell.

p> boat trip for two days, it is rare that the wind and sun are beautiful, and there is no wind and waves at sea. Dong Rong felt bored in the house, so she took her husband to the deck on the first floor for a walk this night.

> couple were leaning on a quiet joke when a second-class maid who was not often waiting in front of them came over with two cups of tea. Dong Rong glanced at the little girl's slightly flushed face, and instead glared at Murong Huaide with disgust.

p > Murong Huaide rolled his eyes innocently, and when he was about to speak, he didn't know if the hull of the boat was shaking too much, the little girl was actually unsteady on her feet, and her whole body suddenly fell to Dong Rong's side.

p > Dong Rong subconsciously reached out to help her, but she didn't want the little maid to suddenly exert force and directly pulled her away from Murong Huaide three steps away.

p> Dong Rong had just stood firm, and before she could speak, she suddenly felt a chill on her neck. This feeling is really familiar and strange, the reason why it is familiar is because she once put the knife across her neck twice by herself, compared to ordinary people, she is already a journeyman, and the strangeness is because it has been ten years since this incident.

p > don't want to, today she is standing on her own big boat, accompanied by her husband, and she was actually beaten by someone with a knife on her neck, which is really annoying.

Murong Huaide, who was not far from the p> was even red-eyed in an instant, if there was anything in this life that made him haunted, it must be that his wife threatened Le Tu the next day with a knife to help him escape. It is a great shame for a man to sacrifice his life to help his wife instead of protecting his wife.

Thinking like this, > his face couldn't help but become more and more pale, and he tried his best to lower his voice and shouted, "Let her go, I promise not to kill you!" ”R638
