"Jizhou Hou, your Su clan came to Chaoge, but I didn't have time to entertain, three days later, in the imperial city, I set up a banquet for your Su clan to wash the wind and dust, what do you think?"
Zixin said at this moment.
"The emperor can't, you are the monarch of the empire, the Su family is just a family of courtiers, but how can you treat the emperor with such a gift, by all means, by all means, the ministers are here to thank the emperor on behalf of the Su family, but the banquet matter, but the emperor is also asked to take back his fate. ”
This Zi Xin said this more than half a month after the Su family came to Chaoge, so what is the meaning of this banquet will not be said for the time being, but once the Su family's attitude towards Zi Xin is exposed, I am afraid that if it is a bad thing, the whole Su family will be killed, and it will be a big deal, so Su Hu hurriedly refused.
"Alas, it's so decided, this Jizhou Marquis is just the Jizhou Marquis, how can he represent your Su clan. ”
Zixin said.
"Emperor, there are many rough people in the Su family, how can they bear the favor of this emperor. ”
Su Hu still said.
Zixin listened to Su Hu's words, but he was silent for a long time, in Zixin's heart, he didn't really want to wash the dust for the Su family, otherwise he would have done it half a month ago, and now he just wants to use this name to test the details of the Su family, but Bigan's words have been haunting his heart.
"Jizhou Hou insists on this, it is better to let Jizhou Hou lead the important people of the Su family to the banquet three days later, by the way, Miss Su will also come together at that time, I have heard for a long time that Miss Su poured the country's 'color', I am a big businessman, and there are countless horns and 'women', I want to see what kind of beautiful 'color' is the 'daughter' of the Hou of Jizhou. ”
After Zixin finished speaking, he laughed a few times, but this laughter was so chilling in Su Hu's heart.
"This. ”
Listening to these words, Su Hu still hesitated.
"What? Jizhou Hou is too unhappy, you must know that I have always done things without bargaining with others, and others dare not bargain with me, but today I broke a precedent in front of Jizhou Hou. ”
Zixin still hesitated when he saw Su Hu, and said when the 'color' below sank slightly.
"Well, the minister. ”
Su Hu was helpless, so he had to answer.
"Okay, okay, haha, three days later, in the imperial city, the Marquis of Jizhou should not miss the time. ”
Zixin just laughed and said.
"The minister must obey the emperor's command. ”
Su Hu bowed again.
Su Hu walked out of the imperial city and returned to the mansion, but this Su Daji was still in the mansion, and was about to go out of the 'door' to the Cuiliu Lake, it can be seen that this Su Hu came back at this moment, his expression was extremely right, and he was worried about thousands of inquiries at the moment.
"Dad, what's wrong? Is something wrong?"
Su Daji asked anxiously.
And Mrs. Nasu also came out at this moment, seeing this situation, she was also anxious, and came forward.
"Three days later, the emperor will set up a banquet to catch the wind for our Su family, and you will all go to the banquet with me. ”
Su Hu said in a lost mind.
"Ah, is the emperor going to attack our Su clan?"
Su Daji exclaimed as soon as she heard this.
"That's why I'm worried. ”
Su Hu said worriedly at this moment.
"But Dad, didn't you say that as long as we call out the ancestral emperor's edict, then the emperor won't embarrass us, right?"
Su Daji asked at this moment.
"But now that things have gone unexpected, perhaps, the emperor does not intend to let our Su clan go, that is to say, for so long, the emperor has always been jealous of our Su clan. ”
Su Hu guessed.
"But, sir, what shall we do then?"
Mrs. Su's face gradually became ugly at this moment, and she asked.
"Since the emperor has already made an order, then we have to do what the emperor wants, if there is the slightest slackness, I am afraid that the emperor will be caught, just to give the emperor an excuse to get rid of my Su family. ”
Su Hu said worriedly.
"But once it comes to the banquet, if the emperor wants to do something to us, I am afraid that he will not be able to prevent it, after all, this is a court song, and in the imperial city, the emperor has the final say, and he deliberately finds a reason to punish us for this. ”
Su Daji said again.
"Daji, have you been going to Cuiliu Lake a lot lately?"
Su Hu remembered Zixin's words at this time, and asked about it.
Su Daji listened to Su Hu's question, and couldn't help but feel a little unnatural, and suddenly a red glow hit her face.
Seeing this situation, Su Hu didn't know what to expect, but he didn't care much about Su Daji's expression this time.
"Dad, how do you know?"
Su Daji asked cautiously.
"Today, the emperor mentioned this matter to me. ”
Su Hu sighed and said.
"Could it be..."
Su Daji's expression was stunned when she heard this, and she looked at Su Hudao.
"Exactly, it seems that our Su Mansion has been closely monitored by the emperor's eyes, and you will pay more attention to your words and demeanor in the future, and, Daji, in the future, without my permission, you are not allowed to go out of the mansion 'privately', you know?"
Su Hu looked at Su Daji and said.
"Dad, but I..."
"What is it? This is an extraordinary time, but you know that today's emperor is holding this matter and telling me, the meaning is very obvious, and my father is also forced to do so, if you have any mistakes in Chaoge City, but how about calling me and your mother?"
Su Hu saw that Su Daji was not satisfied, so he hurriedly stopped him.
"However, the 'girl' went out and didn't do anything else?"
Su Daji thought of Ji Kao at this moment, but she argued.
"Did you go to Cuiliu Lake and meet someone? Otherwise, I don't think the emperor would tell me such a thing, according to this view, that person's identity must be in the emperor's place, and it is not a good thing for you to be careful, don't associate with that person, especially during this extraordinary period. ”
Su Hu repeatedly admonished.
Su Daji was naturally dissatisfied, however, she was about to say something more, but she was pulled by Mrs. Su, and then saw her mother shaking her head, but Su Daji understood what she meant, so she had to give up.
After Su Hu left, Su Daji said to Mrs. Su.
"Mother, how can Dad be like this?"
"Daji, don't you really understand what your father means? You usually know your father's mind best, your father is not doing this for our Su family, our Su family is destined to happen today, the emperor is the king, there are many doubts, and the surrounding courtiers are holding a questioning mentality, and our Su family was impeached by a minister in the court, which naturally aroused the emperor's suspicion, so this matter, our Su family can not let others grasp what handle is, so as not to make things bad. ”
Mrs. Su looked at Su Daji's expression, but said patiently.
"But if I don't go out all day, I'm going to suffocate to death in this house. ”
Su Daji said dissatisfied.
"Aren't you usually reluctant to go out when you're in Jizhou? Why did you think about going out when you arrived in this Chaoge City?"
When Mrs. Su heard this, she couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Uh, oh, mother, didn't I see the prosperity of Chaoge, but my heart was moving, so I thought about going to Chaoge to have a good turn, but now the 'girl' can't go out of this mansion 'door', how is it good to be called 'girl'?"
Su Daji hurriedly covered up.
Mrs. Su knows her 'girl' best, but when she saw Su Daji saying this, her eyes were full of flickering, and she knew in her heart that this was just a cover for Su Daji, but at this time, Mrs. Su remembered what Su Hu said just now.
"Daji, you honestly tell your mother, are you like this because you want to see the person your father said?"
Mrs. Su grabbed Su Daji's white and tender little hand and asked.
When Mrs. Su asked like this, Su Daji's expression immediately became unnatural, and her eyes were even more dodgy when she looked at her mother, and her pretty face became even more red.
"Mother, how can there be such a thing, the 'girl' really just wants to take a good look at the scene in Chaoge City. ”
Su Daji thought about explaining, but as soon as these words came out, they were slurring and spitting, without any strength.
When Mrs. Su heard this, she couldn't help but smile, Su Daji would not lie, especially in front of her family, how could she believe these words.
"Daji, no matter what you are, but my mother hopes that you can understand the current form, what your father said is not wrong, since the emperor knows what you went to Cuiliu Lake, it can be seen that the members of the Su Mansion are under the strict monitoring of the emperor's eyeliner, but the emperor only mentioned you. The woman's behavior, it can be seen that the meaning is to warn us Su, but the other is because the person you saw is an extremely unstable existence in the eyes of the emperor, so he said these words when he summoned your father into the imperial city today, do you understand?"
"Mother, the 'daughter' understands that the 'daughter' promises you that you will never go out of the 'door' in the future. ”
Su Daji listened to her mother's words, but said with mist in her eyes.
"That's good, that's good, hey. ”
Mrs. Su saw that Su Daji agreed, so she patted Su Daji's hand and said with confidence.
However, at this moment, Mrs. Su did not notice Su Daji's complicated expression.
For two days in a row, Ji Kao had not seen Su Daji appear on the shore of Cuiliu Lake, which was extremely worried in Ji Kao's heart, and when he returned to the Kaiyue Inn, Ji Fa was also bored and sat in the inn drinking alcohol.
"Big brother, why did you come back so depressed today?"
Ji Fa's eyes were the fastest, and when he saw Ji Kao, he asked.
Ji Kao glanced at Ji Fa without 'fineness', did not respond, just silently did the opposite side of Ji Fa, but slowly picked up the wine glass and began to drink the stuffy wine by himself.
"Alas, big brother, I said, why are you like this?
Ji Fa took Ji Kao's wine glass and said.
"What do you want me to say?"
Ji Kao glanced at Ji Fa casually, and took the wine glass over again.
"Didn't you go to see that Miss Su, why did you come back so early in the last two days?"
Ji Fa asked.
"I didn't see it. ”
Ji Kao replied helplessly as he drank his drink.
"Didn't you see it? What does this mean, don't you two have to meet at Cuiliu Lake every day? Why haven't you seen it for the past two days? Could it be that something happened to Miss Su?"
Ji Fa reasoned.
"What can happen? She is Su Hu's 'daughter', the eldest lady of the Su clan, what can she do, maybe she doesn't want to see me again." ”
Ji Kao said weakly, and the wine was still sent to the innermost one after another.
"In my opinion, it shouldn't be like this, and didn't you say it a few days ago, didn't you have a good chat? How could you ignore you if you ignore you? Big brother, could it really be that something happened to Miss Su?"
Ji Fa said again.
"So what do you think is going on?"
Ji Kao glanced at Ji Fa and said.
"In my opinion, it's either that Miss Su is inconvenient, or it's inconvenient for her Su family. ”
Ji Fa lowered his voice and said.
"What do you mean?"
Ji Kao asked with a straight expression at this moment.
"If Miss Su herself is inconvenient, then she should also call the maid next to her to talk to you, according to what you said Miss Su's behavior should be like this, but Miss Su didn't do this, then it means that it is not that she herself is inconvenient, but that the entire Su family is inconvenient. ”
Ji Fa said in detail.
"What do you mean?"
Ji Kao thought to himself, but asked.
"The Su clan may have caused trouble after entering the dynasty song this time. ”
Ji Fa said.
"Isn't the Su clan entering the court song with the holy will, although it is rumored that the Su clan relies on the rich people and peace in the land of Jizhou, the soldiers are strong and strong, and they have the heart to rebel, but this point can still show that Su Hu chose to raise the clan into the court song is still able to show that his Su clan does not have this ambition to guess correctly, so how can the emperor not understand it?"
Ji Kao said.
"Oh, big brother, you said that sometimes you can analyze so thoroughly, and sometimes you are so confused, Su Hu pulled hundreds of people from the Su family into the court, showing that his intentions are true, but all this needs someone to see it. ”
"Isn't it impossible for anyone to see such a big thing?"
Ji Kao still doesn't understand what Ji Fa means?
"Some people can see it, some people can't see it, some people can see it, but they pretend they can't see it, you know?"
Ji Fa said
"You mean, the Emperor..."
"Exactly, this is the real thought in his heart, although the Su clan lives in the land of Jizhou, but the night is long and dreamy, it is always a worrying thing, for the monarch is more worried and suspicious, naturally he will not let himself sleep badly, so what is the easiest way. ”
"Eradicate it mercilessly. Ji Kao answered.
"Not bad. ”
