The silence in the inner hall was terrifying, and Zero Seven bet that even if a speck of dust fell from the beam at this moment, he could hear it clearly. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

(Blow, blow hard, you don't need a vacuum cleaner yet)

Emperor Jingtai stared directly at the portrait in his hand, as if he wanted to crush the person in the painting.

In the painting is a seemingly ordinary but very dangerous old man, he looks past his old age, but a pair of small eyes that are bright and shiny completely exposes his fierce heart.

Not to mention, this portrait is really expressive, even if Zhu Qi sees it, he has to praise it. It is difficult to depict Zhu Qi's physiognomy so finely that the viewer can easily count the folds at the corners of his eyes.

Zhu Qi, return to the master?

Emperor Jingtai's heart was cold, his hand was stretched long enough, and he dared to fight even the idea of my eldest grandson!

(I am the author of the kind reminder: people not only dared to fight, but also succeeded.) Don't forget, your eldest son was almost killed last time. ）

Zero Seven knelt on the cold, slippery floor, staring silently at his reflection.

After a long time, until Zero Seven thought that the master was about to forget his existence, suddenly, he felt someone lift up under his armpit.

It's Wu Yi.

Zero Seven obediently followed Wu Yi and retreated, only to find that the sky was already resting even the stars.

"Boss," Zero Seven looked at Wu Yi with some guilt, and only a vague figure could be seen in the dark night, "If the subordinates could come back one step earlier to report the news..."

But there are no ifs in life.

Wu Yi sighed, this was the first time Zero Seven had heard the leader's sigh, it was very prickly.

"Boss, my subordinates are willing to be forwards!" The emperor will definitely clean up that Zhu Qi!

Wu Yi didn't answer, and strode forward, this matter is so tricky, it is imperative to deal with the traitors around the emperor first.

It's almost dawn, and it's hardest before dawn.

At this moment, Emperor Jingtai has no intention of resting, he looked at the portrait motionlessly, if his father is alive, it is probably also... No, no, my father must have looked younger than him. How can you compare your father with this thief leader, don't blame it...

Father-in-law Shi on the side has sighed countless times in his heart, alas, it's a pity for the eldest emperor's grandson, such a good child.

Since Li Fanzhi was born, the two grandparents-level characters are like a competition, today Emperor Jingtai gave this, and Ming'er Jiang Guifei will definitely prepare that; Emperor Jingtai sent Gonggong Shi to the Five Princes' Mansion every once in a while, and Concubine Jiang Guifei sent palace people to go once a day, causing Emperor Jingtai to sneak out of the palace to see it once.

That is a shame in front of Jiang Guifei, I have seen the eldest grandson with my own eyes, don't be too jealous.

The angry Jiang Guifei ignored the dissuasion of the palace people that day and went directly to the Five Princes' Mansion with a swagger.

One can imagine what kind of mood Li Desheng and his wife, who welcomed their mother as soon as they sent their father away, at that moment.

Alas~~~ The most noble old couple in Dashun, even the eldest grandson's full moon gift has not been sent out, and the grandson is dying, and the mood is thin and pitiful in any wording.

Emperor Jingtai is not thinking about how to take revenge on Zhu Qi now, but to find out the truth of the matter, and not let his eldest grandson die unclear.

"Call Sheng'er over." The son is his, and he has the right to know the truth.

"Your Majesty, it's time for the court..."Gonggong Shi handed over a bowl of soup, the emperor is not young, he can't sleep all night, and his body is a big loss.

Emperor Jingtai rubbed his face vigorously, "Cancel it." ”

Hearing that the early dynasty was canceled, the ministers who were already waiting at the palace gate knew in their hearts that it seemed that the emperor would soon have the next move.

On this day, the palace was turned upside down, first Wu and his people inspected each palace and room one by one, and did not let go of even an inch of cloth; then take stock of the palace people left behind in the previous dynasty, who has been out of the palace recently and what they have done; Outside the palace is not idle, those who are more or less connected with the palace, or their family members, have checked and recorded their confessions one by one.

Such a carpet search quickly locked up several suspects, and finally ended up in Jiang Guifei's palace, a female secretary who retired from the palace a few days ago.

"Check." This word was bitten out by Concubine Jiang Guifei from the root of her teeth, she hated it in her heart, but this kind of sorrow could not be expressed in front of the emperor and her eldest son.

This arrest operation was a strong alliance between the secret guards and the "Secret Bureau" (another private agency of Emperor Jingtai, mainly monitoring ministers and collecting intelligence), and the work efficiency was extremely high, and they soon found the whereabouts of the people in the palace. However, they were still a step too late, and by the time they found the palace people, the corpses were already rotting and stinking.

"A rare poison."

According to the research of the imperial doctors, this poison was eaten by the palace people themselves.

In other words, the people of this palace first ate the poison themselves, and then took the opportunity to enter the palace every day to take the initiative to receive the emperor's grandson, and transmitted the virus to the emperor's grandson through airborne transmission (even oral saliva), and finally she herself died.

The emperor's grandson is not yet a full moon, and his body resistance is poor, and a little poison can kill him.

And the symptoms of this poisonous poison were similar to a cold at first, so the imperial doctors initially diagnosed the emperor's grandson with physical weakness, but in fact it was already poisoned into the lungs.

"What a poisonous mind." Jiang Guifei patted the table, her carefully preserved nails were broken, and the tears that fell at this time were completely scared, and of course, there was remorse, after so many years in the palace, it was the first time she had seen such a method.

Emperor Jingtai also shuddered in his heart, if this poison is used on me...

And Li Desheng clenched his fists, "Princess she..."

Did Zhu also get poisoned? That's why it's ......

"Xiaodong?"

The vegetables on the first stubble of Zhuangzi can already be harvested, so Shu Lao Er specially went out of the city and cut a cart of fresh vegetables for the elderly and children at home to try.

On the way back to the city, he specially went around to the south gate, where there was an old stall selling lo-mei, and the meat was fragrant and not greasy.

Coincidentally, when he was about to arrive at the city gate, he hit a man holding a child passing by on the opposite side, Shu Lao Er only felt that the person looked very familiar, he stopped the car and chased after him quickly.

"Xiaodong, it's really you!" Shu Lao'er's face was full of surprise.

Ji Dong, who is now renamed Shuqi, was about to cry, he finally got out of the city gate, but he ran into his second uncle at this juncture!

Recently, the capital has been very strict, and you need to take out a household registration certificate to enter and exit the city gate, Ji Dong finally got out, and now is really not a good time to recognize his relatives!

"East, East! I'm your second uncle! Shu Lao Er dragged the person tightly, for fear that the person would run away in the next second.

Ji Dong couldn't, showing a helpless expression, three points like laughing and seven points like crying.

Shu Lao Er thought that his nephew was excited to see him.

"Let's go, go home!" Shu Lao Er also knew that Ji Dong had a criminal record, this was not the place to speak, he didn't say a word, picked up the child next to Ji Dong and pulled Ji Dong into the car.

Ji Dong couldn't snatch him, so he had to obediently get in the car, in fact, he had long been very eager to see his relatives, and now that his mother was dead and his father fled, his uncle, who grew up watching him, was the closest person.

Shu Lao Er couldn't say anything with a full stomach, the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion was not his own territory after all, and he led Ji Dong back to Guangwen Hutong instead.

Originally, Pan Erniang wanted to rent out this house, but the rest of the family did not agree, although it was impossible to take care of the third grandfather in the Hou Mansion for a while, but the Hou Mansion was not her own home after all, and people from her hometown or occasionally had something to do and could go home.

There was no one in the house, and Shu Chang was sent by Pan Erniang to Zhuangzi to catch production.

Ji Dong looked at the courtyard of the house, "Uncle, is this your house?" "Or is it for someone else?

"It's your sister's."

Ji Dong was surprised, it is said that his sister is not yet old enough to get married, right?

"She passed the exam last year." When it came to his daughter, Shu Lao Er's face had a smile.

Ji Dong was also happy, he didn't expect his sister to be really good at reading, "Seeing old at the age of three, Qingqing has been smart since she was a child." ”

Shu Lao Er smiled but did not speak.

The house has not been inhabited for a long time, and a thin layer of ash has fallen, Shu Lao Er quickly wiped it with a dry rag, "You sit, I'll boil water." ”

The child brought by Ji Dong stood under the porch, did not speak or enter the house, and stood there with a pestle.

Shu Lao Er smiled lovingly at her - the child didn't seem to see it, and he didn't appreciate a superfluous look.

Don't be awkward child, Shu Lao Er thought so, picked up the barrel and walked to the well.

A layer of dead leaves and ash fell in the well, and when Shu Lao Er put the bucket down for the second time, Ji Dong came.

"Uncle, I'll come."

Shu Lao Er handed the bucket to his nephew, half relieved and half sad, this child... I've suffered a lot outside.

The white-faced brother who used to be a hanger could no longer find any traces of existence on Ji Dong's body, but now he has dark skin and hard tendon flesh all over his body.

"I'm going to collect firewood." Shu Lao Er was afraid that if he stayed any longer, tears would burst out of his eyes.

Ji Dong filled the water tank, made another bucket and carried it to the kitchen, and Shu Lao Er had already cut the braised meat and vegetables with a click.

"There is just a dish, let's have a cup at noon." Shu Lao Er said and walked out, although the house was full of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, but there was no rice grain.

Ji Dong was silent, and carried the child standing under the porch into the back room.

Sure enough, when Shu Lao Er came back, the child was gone. Ji Dong only said that the child was asleep, just leave some food for her.

"Is this kid yours?" What about the child? What do you live on now? Shu Lao Er had a stomach and wanted to ask, but he only said: "Eat more, you see how thin you are." ”

Ji Dong cried, crying until he trembled, Shu Lao Er also cried, he remembered the second sister who died.

"You kid, why were you so stupid in the first place!" Shu Lao Er covered his face, tears falling from his palms.

Yes, Ji Dong has regretted countless times, how could he be so stupid in the first place.

After crying for a while, Ji Dong choked up and asked, "My mother... Where is it buried? ”

"Your grandmother is on the side. ... side by side with your third uncle. "Since Qinglan was lifted, those people in my hometown can't wait to bury the Shu family in their cemetery.

Ji Dong was shocked, "Third uncle... Gone? ”

Shu Lao Er nodded with difficulty, "It's a matter of your mother's feet before and after." ”

After talking about the current situation of the people in Weixian County, Ji Dong said: "Uncle, why did you come to the capital?" ”

Shu Lao Er wiped his face, "Accompany your younger brothers and sisters to study in Beijing." ”

"Uncle, you... It's really a lot for my younger siblings. Ji Dong is now also a father.

Shu Lao Er said seriously: "That's what I should do." ”

Ji Dong thought of his own mother, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

Shu Lao Er wanted to speak and stopped, "You know..."Your mother told your father to die, right?"

Ji Dong acquiesced.

"You... What are your plans for the future? Shu Lao Er is full of worries about the future of his nephew.

Ji Dong remembered his deed of sale, and couldn't answer, his own son was still in the hands of others.

"Dong," don't blame Shu Lao Er for thinking too much, the kid is not Ji Dong's at first glance, "Don't do anything stupid!" ”

Ji Dong smiled bitterly, there are few "stupid things" and wrong things he has done over the years.

"It's not terrible for people to make mistakes," Shu Lao Er is really afraid that his nephew will go astray, "What I'm afraid of is that he refuses to repent, and he is still a good boy if he changes." In the eyes of Shu Laoer, Ji Dong is still the child of their Shu family.

Ji Dong was still silent, his mind was in chaos now, to be honest? Can I get back on the right track now?

At night, Shu Lao Er called his daughter to him and told him about meeting Ji Dong during the day.

After listening to the sins that Ji Dong suffered after eloping back then, Qinglan and Pan Erniang were not so angry with him.

"Dad, how do you want to help him?" Qinglan knew that with the sudden death of her second aunt, her father had forgiven this nephew.

"The key is what he thinks." Shu Lao Er felt that he didn't convince his nephew today, and Ji Dong must have something to hide from him.

"That, that..."What's that woman's name?

"Aunt Embroidery." Pan Erniang interjected.

"Yes, that's her. Dad, did you see her today? "It's no wonder Qinglan is suspicious, she sent Ji Dong so far back back then, how did he come back?

"No," Shu Lao Er frowned, "except for one child, there is no one else on the side." ”

"Whose child?" Pan Erniang immediately grasped the most critical words.

"He didn't say," Shu Lao Er asked several times but didn't ask, "it doesn't look like it's him anyway." ”

Thirteen tells Haruman that the murderer who poisoned his nephew has been found.

It's really poisonous, "How did that man do it?" "Didn't you say that the princess fed it herself and the prince's palace was heavily guarded.

No matter how strict he was, he didn't expect that it was his grandmother's palace people who did it, and this palace person really did whatever it took to achieve his goal.

"Why did this palace man do that?" Qinglan felt very incredible when she heard it, isn't this "human poison"!

"Repay the favor." Thirteen felt sarcastic, "She was adopted by a former court maid since she was a child, and later..."

It turned out to be a "family affection" kidnapping.

“！” Qinglan suddenly remembered, "Your eldest brother and sister-in-law weren't poisoned, right!?" "Airborne huh!

"Ahh ”

Yes? It's not going to be soon... Braids, right?

"My sister-in-law, she—" Thirteen said with great difficulty, "she's crazy." ”
