Chapter 440: Reflection
Huo Tianyou was slightly stunned, and the hand on her shoulder suddenly felt a little heavier.
This small action made Lu Shuyi's heart sink a little more, didn't it? He already knew?
She pinched her fingers and was about to open her mouth to speak, but she heard Huo Tianyou say unhurriedly: "Do you know about my eldest brother's private army?" ”
The expression on Lu Shuyi's face couldn't escape his eyes at all, and the question she asked again and again at the moment must be something that could not be said about life and death.
This kind of thing of raising a private army, once it is discovered by the imperial court, it is a dead word, and the serious one will be punished for conspiracy and rebellion, and the nine clans will be punished.
When Lu Shuyi heard him say it so easily, she slapped his hand away angrily, sat sideways and refused to look at him, and said angrily: "I thought you would find another excuse to prevaricate me, okay, you admit it very happily, and you say it even more easily, you ...... Do you know what the consequences will be if this matter is discovered by the imperial court? ”
"I know......" He got up quietly, walked around in front of her again, and sat down again before saying: "If he is discovered by the imperial court, he will be beheaded alone, and our entire Huo family will be beheaded." ”
These words came out of his mouth so lightly that Lu Shuyi was almost angry, and immediately said: "Since you know that it is a big sin of the Zhulian Nine Clans, why didn't you tell me earlier?" ”
Huo Tianyou looked innocent: "Said it earlier? But I only found out about it recently, and ...... And if I had said it earlier, I would have been afraid that you would have been worried. ”
"Nonsense, can I not be worried?"
When she said this, she also felt a little rude. For a moment, he twisted his fingers together and exhaled, "When did you know?" Also, the princess talked to me today, and she said that she found out that your eldest brother's illness had been cured a long time ago, and the reason why he pretended to be sick and pretended to be painful was to make you take all the responsibilities, and then take away all the credit you have made. Speaking of this, she felt more and more disgusting that this Huo Tiankang was disgusting, and said coldly: "It's so shameless, how can this kind of person deserve to live?" When he fell into an ice hole, he should have frozen to death and drowned him. ”
As soon as the words came out, she felt that it was inappropriate, no matter how she said Huo Tiankang, he was also Huo Tianyou's half-brother. Curse people to death. It's really not good.
She felt that she was indeed too hot today, and her self-control was particularly poor, and after thinking about it, she thought that maybe it was because of the Kwai Shui.
Huo Tianyou also seemed to be stunned, and couldn't say a word for a long time. He probably didn't expect that Huo Tiankang was pretending to be sick to deceive him.
So many years. Although Huo Tiankang snatched away the honor that should belong to him again and again. He endured it all, just because he remembered that he had a leg disease, but now he said that his illness had long since been cured......
It's as if there's an empty bubble hanging in front of your eyes. It has been hanging in the air for many years, and you have always thought that it will not break, and it will not break, but one day you open your eyes and look, it suddenly breaks in front of you......
Huo Tianyou's lips pursed together, and he said coldly, "When did my mother find out?" ”
That kind of coldness also made Lu Shuyi startled, but she could understand that she had wronged him for so many years, and in the end she found that these grievances were not worth it at all.
"The princess said she just found out." She paused slightly, and said, "And that He Ruyi, she ...... She added a tranquilizer to your mother's soup. ”
If you take tranquilizers, you will be drowsy, although you will not die, but you will fall asleep every day, and your body will have problems over time.
She felt that she needed to tell Huo Tianyou these things and let him make plans early.
Huo Tianyou didn't have much reaction to this sedative medicine, he said lightly: "I already knew that she had bad intentions, so I specially found someone to check my mother's food a long time ago." He raised his eyebrows slightly, and said coldly: "But this woman is too restless, she has only been in our Huo family for a few days, and she wants to monopolize the power of our Huo family's back house, hmph, okay, I want to see how she has a monopoly method." ”
He pursed his lips and lowered his eyelashes in thought, the long eyelashes stained with cold breath in the dim light.
"So what are you going to do? He lied to you like that. Lu Shuyi blinked at him, and then hesitated: "There are ...... Your eldest brother is ...... Is the army he raised really going to rebel? That...... Does that Huo Wang Ye know, or does he say...... Did he do it? ”
She plucked up the courage to ask all in one go, if she didn't ask, she was afraid that she would suffocate to death, and she felt much happier when she asked.
Regardless of whether their Huo family was plotting to rebel or not, she just wanted to understand.
Huo Tianyou glanced at her, but he didn't hide it, and said with calm eyes: "Actually, I don't tell you that I don't tell you the truth, and you also know that rebellion is a big crime, and if you don't do it well, it is a capital crime, so before you became a Uighur monarch, I didn't plan to involve you, so I didn't tell you the truth." He paused for a moment, looked into her eyes and said slowly: "Actually, my father was already dissatisfied with the court three years ago. ”
Lu Shuyi gasped, three years ago?
So did Prince Huo start raising the army privately as early as three years ago?
She didn't dare to ask, but just listened to him say, "In your opinion, how is our big week?" ”
Lu Shuyi blinked, a little silent.
How is the big week? For her, food and clothing are worry-free, but what about others?
She thought of what Holly and Dongmei had said, selling their children if there was no food at home......
The poor can't afford to eat, so can Da Zhou be considered good?
Her lips pursed together for a long time before she said, "I don't know, I just know that for me, I don't have to worry about food and clothing, and as far as my family is concerned, they are also very wealthy." However, as far as Dongmei and Holly are concerned, eating a full stomach is considered a good day, so I can't judge whether it is good or bad. ”
Huo Tianyou nodded slightly, "People will have their own warmth and coldness in the world, but as far as you are concerned, Da Zhou has not missed you a full meal, nor has you been clothed, but like Dongmei and Holly, the so-called happy days are just asking for a full meal, however, they can't even ask for a full meal, right?" ”
"Also, the imperial court is actually not the Liu family for a long time, it is the He family." He said lightly: "The queen mother's dictatorship is not a day or two, but the emperor can only be willing to be a puppet." Do you think it's good for such a court? ”
Lu Shuyi frowned, she remembered the experience in Kyoto in her previous life, when there was a big flood in the hometown of a singer in the teaching workshop, flooding countless fertile fields and drowning countless people, but instead of opening the granary to help the victims, the king of a country used a large amount of money from the treasury to build a new imperial garden, a new temple and a pagoda, and the silver was not enough to raise taxes and miscellaneous taxes to collect money from the people......
