Chapter 140: The Emperor Dies
"Xuan girl!" As soon as she returned to Wuyuan, Mrs. Huo's face became serious, and before she could sit down, she had already begun to make trouble: "Kneel!" β
Huo Yunxuan was not ambiguous, Mrs. Huo asked her to kneel, so she knelt down without saying a word, kowtowed deeply to Mrs. Huo, and said, "Grandmother." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
Seeing that her granddaughter was so sensible, Mrs. Huo sighed in her heart and asked, "Do you know why your grandmother told you to kneel?" β
Huo Yunxuan shook her head, her face calm: "My granddaughter doesn't know." β
Seeing that Huo Yunxuan's face was calm, not as if her mouth was hard, Mrs. Huo sighed again and said, "You, you are younger and not calm when you encounter problems." β
After that, Tian's mother helped her sit down before she said, "You get up and speak." β
Huo Yunxuan should be, thank you, and then stood up with Zhishu's hand, and then Mrs. Huo said again: "You are really bold today, if Lord Zheng really acts according to the order, wouldn't my Huo Mansion be held guilty of disrespecting the order?" β
"That is, the fourth sister is always reckless on weekdays, but this time it is about the entire Huo Mansion, and the fourth sister is inevitably too reckless."
Old lady Huo reprimanded Huo Yunxuan, how could there be less Huo Yunyi to get involved, Huo Yunxuan squinted, glanced at Huo Yunyi meaningfully, then lowered her eyes and said: "Grandmother, this Lord Zheng is from the fourth master's side, if you really let Lord Zheng search the mansion, even if there is nothing in the house, something will be searched, not to mention that there may be a traitor in our house?" It is a death to find out and present it to the emperor, and it is also a death to resist the disrespect of the will, and it is a death both horizontally and vertically, so why not fight? Maybe there's still a chance to live, right? β
As soon as Huo Yunxuan's words fell, Wang's voice rang out, with the joy of having just escaped and the anger of almost falling into danger.
"What the fourth girl said is righteous and awe-inspiring, but I don't want all this to be your guess, if you guess wrong, our entire house will accompany you in!"
Huo Yunxuan glanced at the Wang family coldly, snorted coldly, and said in a strange manner: "The second aunt should save some effort, it's good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, and it won't be good for the second uncle if the Hou Mansion is defeated." How? Could it be that the second aunt is still counting on the king of Pingjun to win the heir in one fell swoop and give the title of Pingyuan Hou to the second uncle? β
After that, he sneered, glanced at Wang lightly, and stopped talking.
"Fourth girl, you can eat this meal indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense!" was stepped on by Huo Yunxuan in the fox's tail, Wang pointed at Huo Yunxuan angrily, and said angrily: "I can't write two Huo characters with this pen, I naturally look forward to the Hou Mansion being better, why is my concern for the Hou Mansion worthless to you?" β
As he spoke, there were tears in his eyes, his face turned to Mrs. Huo, and he said aggrievedly: "In the end, it is the concubine of the big house, and we elders in the second room are not worthy of their respect." β
"The fourth sister has been used to it since she was a child," as soon as Wang's voice fell, Huo Pingyi had already spoken out and soothed: "Second aunt don't worry about a child." β
"Brother Ping," Wang looked at Huo Pingyi while wiping his tears, covered his chest and said, "Second Aunt is not worrying with Miss Xuan, Second Aunt is cold!" β
As he spoke, he clenched the hand that was placed on his heart into a fist, thumped it his chest, and said with a crying voice: "It's all the Huo family, how can the second aunt not hope for you to be well?" β
"That's it!" Old Mrs. Huo was so annoyed by Wang's quarrel that her head hurt, she frowned and interrupted Wang's words, and said sharply: "When is it, you still have the heart to quarrel here!" β
Huo Yunxuan glanced at Wang coldly, gave up, sat back beside Hai and stopped talking, Wang wanted to say something more, but when she saw that Old Lady Huo had a serious face and didn't dare to make a mistake, she also shut up.
Huo Yun also glanced at Huo Yunxuan proudly, and stepped forward to pour a cup of tea for Mrs. Huo with filial piety, and said comfortingly: "Grandmother will drink a cup of tea first." β
Old Mrs. Huo nodded, and glanced at her eldest granddaughter, who had always been gentle, with relief in her eyes.
Huo Yunxuan raised her eyebrows, and didn't care that Huo Yun also put aside the big-tailed wolf, she just sat there and waited quietly for a while, during which there was any movement at the door curtain Huo Yunxuan looked over there anxiously, but unfortunately it was not Huo Chenyi who came in every time.
"Ancestor!" Just when Huo Yunxuan was waiting and getting more and more anxious, Ziyuan suddenly came in from the outside curtain, and after bowing to the master in the house, he said with a worried face: "Ancestor, I just got the news from outside, Dali Temple Qing Wang, Yongchang Hou, An Tinghou, Qi Guogong and other adults were all edicted into the palace by the emperor, and the mansions of several adults were also searched. β
Dali Temple Qing Yongchang waits for these people, but they are all the people of the great prince Pingjun Wang......
Huo Yunxuan was startled, squinted her eyes, and hurriedly asked, "Has anyone from the mansion of Mu Guogong and several other adults been sent to search the mansion?" β
Zi Yuan nodded: "General Cheng and other adults in Xiangyuan Houfu have also been searched in the mansion, it is said that even Xue Guogong's mansion has not been spared, but Xue Guogong was not invited by the emperor in the mansion, and Xue Guogong was shocked, and they didn't dare to be too presumptuous." β
"What other houses have been murdered?"
Zi Yuan said a few more families, the more Huo Yunxuan's brows wrinkled, these people are either the faction of King Pingjun, or the faction of King Huai, or even the faction of King Yu, the Twelfth Prince, how can it be that King Anjun's faction is not threatened?
"Who are the people who led the people to search the house?"
"The mansions of several princes and princes are all led by the soldiers to search the mansions led by the guards and deputy guards, and the other mansions are led by several eunuchs around the emperor."
How many eunuchs around the emperor? Huo Yunxuan narrowed her eyes, a trace of coldness flashed in her eyes, it seemed that almost all the people around the emperor were bought by Gu Shaoqi.
Now that the form is chaotic, the entire Shangjing City seems to have become a situation where Gu Shaoqi is the only one, and this form seems to be somewhat unfavorable to Gu Shaoyuan's development......
"Grandmother......" Huo Yunxuan looked up at Mrs. Huo with a bit of a master, and saw that although Mrs. Huo was calm on her face, her eyes were also erratic, and she must have lost the bottom of her heart.
In the end, it is about the entire Huo family, although the second room has taken refuge in the king of Pingjun, but now the people of the king of Pingjun have also been called into the palace by the emperor, and the king of Anjun is the only one in the entire capital......
"Grandmother, why did you say that the emperor summoned these adults into the palace?"
Old Mrs. Huo raised her eyes and looked at Huo Siyi, squinted her eyes, and said lightly: "I'm afraid it's not the emperor who summoned these adults into the palace." β
Mrs. Huo's words shocked the whole room, Huo Xiangyi said: "When my grandson was reading history books a few days ago, I found that something similar had happened. β
"It is said that in the Western Tang Dynasty, there was a Holy Ancestor Emperor, this Holy Ancestor Emperor committed the most foolish thing in his life, passed the position of the prince to the eldest son who had no way to govern the country, and the younger son felt that the hero was useless, so he launched a coup d'Γ©tat, and gathered a group of talents to force the palace when the Holy Ancestor Emperor returned to heaven, and in order to deceive all those who might hinder him into the palace and put them under house arrest, so that when forcing the palace, it was easier."
As soon as Huo Xiangyi's voice fell, everyone sitting in the room turned pale, this story, Huo Yunxuan had also seen it in the history books in her spare time.
"Grandmother ......"
Huo Yun was already a complete master of the six gods at this time, but he was afraid that Gu Shaoqi would really ascend the throne and become the emperor, and then the entire Huo Mansion would be raided and wiped out.
The more she thought about it, the more frightened Huo Yunyi became, and the resentment on her lips increased: "Big brother is really, why do you want to stand with King Huai?" The granddaughter has long seen that the fourth master is different from ordinary people......"
"Shut up!" Before Huo Yunyi's words fell, Old Lady Huo interrupted sharply, glanced at Huo Yunyi viciously, and reprimanded: "Now that the emperor is still in the new master, how can you be allowed to talk nonsense here!" β
"But ......"
"What's there!" Huo Yun also wanted to say more, but Old Lady Huo frowned and interrupted sternly. It's a shame that she thought that this granddaughter was gentle and knowledgeable, but she didn't want to show the fox's tail again in three sentences.
Glaring at Huo Yunyi, Old Lady Huo glanced at everyone, and saw that everyone's faces were full of six gods and no owner, and couldn't help but comfort her: "Now we don't have any way, for today's plan, we have to wait." Now, no news is the best news. β
No news is the best news.
From morning to noon, several people gathered together to have lunch with the ancestors, and no one proposed to go back to the house to rest, and Mrs. Huo also had no heart for a lunch break, and had been waiting anxiously with everyone.
As long as the children get together on weekdays, although there are quarrels from time to time, there is always laughter and laughter in Wuyuan, and Mrs. Huo is also willing to have these children under her knees, but today, who can laugh?
Several girls who were usually arrogant and domineering also sat quietly beside their mothers at this time, and they were so frightened by the atmosphere that they didn't dare to say a word.
At this time, even if everyone gets together, they can't think of anything, but no one wants to leave, Mrs. Huo is the backbone of the female family of a house, and she can't write two Huo characters with one stroke, and the Huo family still understands the truth of both prosperity and loss.
waited until the afternoon was almost sunset, and no one came to report the news, Huo Yunxuan was even more uneasy in her heart.
Huo Yunxuan didn't think about what kind of crime the Huo family would suffer if Gu Shaoyuan was defeated. She is a person who has died once, and when she faces death again, Huo Yunxuan's heart does not fluctuate, she is just worried about the safety of Gu Shaoyuan and Huo Chenyi......
Now that Huo Chen is easy to be called, it is very likely that he will be placed under house arrest, as soon as he thinks of this, Huo Yunxuan's heart keeps beating drums. Gu Shaoyuan is the biggest threat to any prince, no matter which position he is, he will be busy and dispose of Gu Shaoyuan first, which is undeniable.
However, a few days ago, that person was still asking himself in high spirits if he would like to share the honor and disgrace with him.
Huo Yunxuan lowered her eyes, hiding her eyes that had begun to redden, so as not to let others see what she looked like at this time. Although there is nothing to be done in Wuyuan now, no one is willing to leave, and it seems that the more they reach the last moment, the more they want to get together, and only when their families get together, they will feel more down-to-earth.
Hai sighed, reached out and shook Huo Yunxuan's hand, but suddenly felt that Huo Yunxuan's hand was cold, and couldn't help feeling distressed, so he squeezed Huo Yunxuan's hand hard, and signaled Huo Yunxuan not to worry.
Huo Yunxuan, who was still silent on her back, was pinched by the Hai family, and suddenly remembered that last night, what Gu Shaoyuan said when he left, his heart moved, and he was afraid that there would be no such opportunity to do things for him impulsively in the future. Looking out the window, the winter days were already shorter, and seeing that the sky was gradually darkening, he sighed in his heart, covered the sadness in his eyes, beckoned to Zhiqi, and motioned for her to lean her ears over
"Go to Qianyunju and cook angelica and ginseng together......"
Later, Gu Shaoyuan was going to come to drink medicine.
Zhiqi's heart moved, his eyes were a little red, and he whispered, and said in a hoarse voice: "Girl...... If...... What if he can't come? β
"Then keep it warm and wait for him to come."
He's definitely coming. Gu Shaoyuan has always been a gentleman, and what he said will definitely come true, and if he says that he will come, he will definitely come.
Huo Yunxuan just added some affirmation to her ordinary tone, but Zhiqi was almost made to cry by this sentence. Holding back her tears, knowing that Qi whispered, Huo Yunxuan said again: "I'm afraid it's too late to rookie purses now, you go and flip through them, I remember a mandarin duck purse that I just embroidered a few days ago, and you can ask Xiangxiang to send it to me in a while." β
These words are as if they are explaining the aftermath.
"Girl.......
"Alright, you go down."
Knowing that Qi wanted to say something more, he could only sigh when he saw Huo Yunxuan's appearance, and after holding back his tears, he couldn't hold back anymore, and went back to Qianyunju while crying all the way.
Standing outside the door of Qianyunju, Zhiqi first wiped away his tears and calmed himself down before he raised his feet and stepped into Qianyunju. Although the maids in the mansion didn't know what was going on, when Lord Zheng brought someone to search the mansion just now, how could these maids not count in their hearts?
Now seeing Zhiqi coming back with red eyes, a few maids couldn't help but beg her: "Sister Zhiqi, we are not born in the family, and the family sent us to the house just to make a living, and now we ....... Nowadays......."
Now that something happened to the Hou Mansion, they thought about escaping. can enjoy happiness together but can't suffer together, such a person, it is estimated that Huo Yunxuan will not be able to stay. It's just that the master is the master after all, and Zhiqi can't make decisions for Huo Yunxuan, but he secretly wrote down these people, and said lightly: "I know everything, I'll go and plead for you and the girl in a while." β
After all, it is normal for people to be greedy for life and afraid of death. They don't want to stay, and they don't want to be reluctant.
didn't bother to look at a few of them, Zhiqi bypassed them and went into the inner room by himself, first found out the mandarin duck purse that Huo Yunxuan said, handed it to Raid Xiang, and ordered Raid Xiang to take it to Lotus Garden and hand it over to Huo Yunxuan, then went to the small kitchen by himself, and according to Huo Yunxuan's instructions, put the angelica root ginseng together, and cooked the decoction for Gu Shaoyuan.
The sky gradually darkened little by little, and He Youchang, who had been guarding the news at the palace gate for a day, finally returned home, but he brought back a piece of news that did not know whether it was beneficial or not beneficial to the Hou Mansion.
I saw He Youchang stumbling all the way back to the Hou Mansion and running to Mrs. Huo, and before Mrs. Huo could ask, she had already spoken out by herself
"Ancestor, Emperor...... Crashed. β
Your Majesty, you have died. (To be continued.) )
