283 Chestnut in the fire

After Wang Zijin left, Director Guo immediately spoke: "Jia'er, the situation is not very stable now, don't be stubborn, it's better for you to go out and avoid it." ”

Li Weiyang paused slightly, and didn't speak for a long time, no matter what situation he encountered before, Director Guo had never said such a thing to himself. She smiled and said, "Fifth brother, why are you so scared?" ”

Director Guo said with a gloomy face: "This is not called fear, it is called caution." Not everyone in the world can always be smooth sailing, I'm worried that Empress Pei will use some cruel tricks, we can't guard against it after all. Moreover, my father and His Royal Highness King Xu are not in Dadu, and I am afraid it will not be so easy to protect you and the Guo family alone. ”

Li Weiyang smiled: "Hearing you say this, I feel like I have become a burden." ”

Director Guo frowned and said, "Jia'er, you actually understand everything, don't misinterpret what I mean!" ”

Li Weiyang raised his hand and said softly: "Fifth brother, I won't leave here, no matter what happens, I won't leave the Guo family." ”

Director Guo looked at Li Weiyang, and anger gathered in his eyes: "You are really crazy!" Knowing that people are going to deal with you, you are still sitting here and waiting, are you really not afraid of death? ”

Li Weiyang saw that the other party's eyebrows were slightly twisted, and there was already a sinister anger in his eyes, and he sighed softly: "I promised Yuan Lie to wait here for him to come back, if you let me hide now, where can I go?" Leaving Dadu? Or do you simply leave Yuexi? ”

Her eyes are black and clear, like high-quality black agate, so people dare not look at them directly. Director Guo hesitated for a moment before saying, "I have a business friend in Hezhou, you can go to him to avoid him." ”

Li Weiyang said lightly: "No matter where I go, Empress Pei will not let me go." Think about it, I killed her two daughters, and I have so many grudges with her, can she just stop there? No! Even if I hide to the ends of the earth, she will turn me out, so why bother? ”

Seeing that her face was as cold as a deep ancient pool, Director Guo refused to listen to her own persuasion at all, and couldn't help but feel anxious on her face.

Li Weiyang had already gotten up and said, "Okay, it's not early, I should go and see if my mother is taking medicine." ”

Hearing Li Weiyang's insistence, Director Guo couldn't help but sigh and said, "Okay, I'll go with you." ”

The two came to the flower hall and saw Mrs. Guo talking to Princess Chen Liu, Jiang was standing there in a pale pink shirt, and when they saw Li Weiyang, Jiang couldn't help but smile and said, "My sister is here." ”

Li Weiyang smiled and nodded, and said, "Mother, the time for medicine has come." ”

Mrs. Guo immediately frowned tightly: "Jia'er, why are you so stubborn, I said that the illness is almost cured, why do you want me to take these bitter medicines every day?" ”

Li Weiyang smiled: "Good medicine is good for disease, if my mother wants to recover completely, she shouldn't hide her illness and avoid medical treatment." As she spoke, she gently picked up a bowl of medicine from the tray held by the maidservant behind her and sent it to Mrs. Guo, but Mrs. Guo changed her gentle look and looked anxious.

Princess Chen Liu, who was next to her, said with a smile: "Look at you, at such an old age, you might as well be sensible as a child." My daughter has worked so hard to persuade you, so you can drink it, and it will not be in vain for her filial piety. ”

Mrs. Guo sighed, had to take the bowl of medicine, hesitated for a moment before raising her neck ruthlessly, and swallowed the black medicine. Li Weiyang smiled when he saw her drink the medicine.

Jiang said gently: "Mother is always like this, every time she is sick, the doctor prescribes medicine for three months, but she is always only willing to take it for half a month, and the rest is all poured down, which is really a pity." Because of this, her illness can't be broken. ”

Li Weiyang looked at the Jiang family and said with a smile: "Let my sister-in-law bother." ”

Jiang shook his head slightly: "Filial piety to the mother is the duty of a daughter-in-law. It's my sister, if I become Princess Xu in the future, I'm afraid I won't be able to do my filial piety under my mother's knees all the time, I don't know how sad my mother will be then! ”

Mrs. Guo didn't think so when she heard this, took Li Weiyang's hand and said, "As long as Jia'er is doing well, even if I can't see her in the future, I am willing." What's more, King Xu's Mansion is not far from our Qi State Mansion, what are you afraid of? ”

The Jiang family and Princess Chen Liu both looked at each other and smiled, unable to hide the joy in their eyes.

Li Weiyang's heart moved, no matter how thick-skinned he was, his face was also slightly red.

Princess Chen Liu said with a slight smile in her eyes: "When they come back this time, our family will finish your brother's marriage in a hurry, and it is time to discuss your marriage." ”

Jiang nodded: "If that's the case, we should prepare now, so as not to be in a hurry." ”

Li Weiyang saw that the other party was about to prepare a dowry if he didn't speak again, so he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I haven't thought about this yet." It's only been half a year since I returned to Guo's house, and I still hope to do more filial piety under my mother's knees. ”

Mrs. Guo shook her head and disagreed: "You are really a stupid child, it is just right to get married at this age." His Royal Highness King Xu has a deep affection for you again, and he can rest assured that he will hand you over to his mother. Saying this, there was already a trace of crystal tears in the corners of Mrs. Guo's eyes.

Li Weiyang was startled, his quiet eyes were glowing, and he smiled busily: "Look at what my mother said, I thought you were tired of me and didn't want to see me again!" ”

Mrs. Guo wrapped her hand tightly in her palm and said, "How can you say such a thing, I wish I would have left you at home for the rest of my life!" But how can a girl not marry? Even if I want to keep you, His Royal Highness King Xu won't be willing! This time, before he left, he had hinted several times that I was going to urge you, don't pretend to be stupid, when he comes back this time, you will never shirk again! ”

Everyone in the room laughed, but Director Guo sat there silent, with a gloomy face, not knowing what he was thinking. Princess Chen Liu noticed him and couldn't help laughing, "What happened to this child?" I haven't spoken since I walked through the door. ”

Director Guo didn't expect to be named suddenly, and was taken aback, so he raised his head: "Did my grandmother call me?" ”

Princess Chen Liu said "Huh" before saying, "Didn't you hear what I just said, why do you want to be so engrossed?" ”

Director Guo glanced at Li Weiyang, but he didn't know what to say, he knew that he shouldn't tell them about the current situation. Because Princess Chen Liu is old, and Mrs. Guo is a woman in the house, they know that this will only make them more troublesome, and they are helpless at all. Therefore, he opened his mouth but just smiled: "Where am I distracted, I am just thinking that since my sister is going to get married, what gifts should I, as an elder brother, give her?" ”

Li Weiyang glanced at Director Guo and was a little grateful to him for concealing the current situation.

Princess Chen Liu said with a smile: "When a girl gets married, her brother has to carry her sedan chair on her back, and our family happens to have five sons, and I don't know who will carry Jia'er at that time?" ”

Mrs. Guo was a little stunned: "It stands to reason that it should naturally be Rong'er, but Guo Rong is now on the front line, even if the situation is calmed, he still has to guard over there, I'm afraid he won't be able to come back." Yan'er he ......" She paused slightly, her face seemed to be shrouded in a trace of sorrow, and then she laughed and said, "Next is Cheng'er, he is the most suitable." ”

Director Guo smiled and said: "Mother, there is no rule that you must be an older brother to be at the top, this is not the time to favor one over the other!" It is said that the bride should be happy, the third brother and the fourth brother have all found a daughter-in-law, but I am the only one missing, and they should give me this joy! ”

Mrs. Guo pointed at him with a smile, angry and funny: "Look at you, do you still want to rob this errand!" Director Guo's words made everyone else laugh, but at this time, Li Weiyang paid attention to the other party's expression and sighed softly.

Late at night, Li Weiyang sat alone in front of the mirror and removed the hairpin rings on his head one by one. Zhao Yue stood aside, served her to take off her makeup, and couldn't help asking: "Miss, what the fifth young master said today is not unreasonable, the slave dares to persuade you to go out and avoid it." ”

Li Weiyang said lightly: "If I wanted to avoid it, I would have avoided it long before they left." It's too late! ”

Too late, what does that mean? When Zhao Yue heard this, she couldn't help but be stunned.

Li Weiyang glanced at her and smiled slightly: "It's not too early, let's rest first." ”

Zhao Yue didn't say much, just answered, and served Li Weiyang to lie down, and then she gently lowered the curtain, blew out the light, and went to lie on the couch next to her. Every day the vigil is a few maids who take turns to be on duty, but recently, Zhao Yue is not at ease, so she personally guards Li Weiyang's room.

In the middle of the night, a low voice suddenly knocked on the door outside: "Sister Zhao, Sister Zhao." ”

Zhao Yue opened her eyes suddenly, got up and walked over lightly, and said in a low voice, "Who is outside the door?" ”

I only heard the lotus root say respectfully: "Sister Zhao, please report to Miss on behalf of the slave maid, Concubine Guo Hui brought the female official to send an object, saying that she was going to hand it over to Miss in person, and asked her to get up as much as possible." ”

At this hour, what kind of objects will Concubine Guo Hui send? Zhao Yue was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll go right away." And she just turned around, but Li Weiyang had already woken up, sat up and opened the tent, looked at Zhao Yue with a cool gaze like water, and said, "What's wrong?" ”

Zhao Yue hurriedly explained the matter. Li Weiyang nodded, got up from the bed, simply put on a robe, and combed a little before walking out of the door.

The lotus root outside the door was lit with red candles, and the female official sent by Concubine Guo Hui saluted Li Weixin lightly, and then said: "Concubine Hui has a life, and she wants the slave to send things quietly immediately." Unexpectedly, I disturbed the young lady, please forgive me! ”

Li Weiyang listened silently, but smiled faintly and said, "I don't know if Concubine Hui has something to hand over to me?" ”

The female officer handed the tray in her hand to Zhao Yue, which was covered with a thin layer of red silk, and she couldn't see what was inside. Zhao Yue gently uncovered the red silk, and there was a cloth bag lying quietly on the tray, but the two sides were tied with ropes, and the inside of the cloth bag was also empty, which looked particularly strange. The female officer couldn't help but be stunned when she looked at this thing, she only knew that Concubine Guo Hui suddenly ordered her to come today, but she didn't know what the thing was sent. After Li Weiyang's initial surprise, she already understood, and she said softly: "Zhao Yue, send this female official out of the mansion for me." ”

Zhao Yue immediately answered and sent the surprised female official out. turned around, but saw Li Weiyang sitting under the lamp quietly looking at the cloth bag, faintly distracted. Zhao Yue took a step forward suspiciously, and said, "Miss, how could Concubine Hui send this thing in the middle of the night, what is in this bag?" ”

Li Weiyang smiled faintly and said absentmindedly: "It's nothing, just an empty cloth bag." ”

In the middle of the night, the third watch sent an empty cloth bag, what did Concubine Hui plan to do. Zhao Yue became more and more confused, and couldn't help but say: "What is the purpose of that, why did you send it to Miss at this hour?" "Indeed, Concubine Guo Hui once gave Li Weiyang a lot of gifts, gold and silver jewelry, fresh melons and fruits, which are all gifts from the mother, but they are generally not sent at such an hour, let alone choose such a strange gift, so it is normal for Zhao Yue to feel very confused.

Li Weiyang glanced at her, but sighed lightly: "This is Niangniang telling me that my current situation is sitting in the city of sorrow and suffering from the enemy." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yue was taken aback, and said in a lost voice: "How can this be? ”

Li Weiyang placed the cloth bag on the table, and gently clasped the table with his knuckles. In the silence of the night, there was a "beep" sound, and her beautiful face showed a mysterious expression in the faint candlelight.

Zhao Yue pondered and said, "Do you want to sue the fifth young master immediately about this matter?" ”

Li Weiyang shook his head: "Concubine Hui Niangniang tried every means to warn me, indicating that the situation is very unfavorable to me now. But the fifth brother was already very nervous, and if he sued him, he would be even more uneasy. ”

Zhao Yue saw that Li Weiyang was still quiet and unchanging in front of Mount Tai, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious: "Miss, according to the fifth young master, you better avoid it, it's still too late to leave at this hour." Madame, the slave will inform you. ”

Li Weiyang said softly: "It's late, it's too late!" ”

Zhao Yue didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, but said out of a caring heart: "Miss, it's not too late, before dawn!" As soon as Zhao Yue's words fell, she suddenly heard a rush of footsteps outside. The footsteps were very chaotic and hurried, and seemed to carry endless panic, and this time the lotus root almost rushed into the room.

Li Weiyang is extremely strict, the maidservants around her are all people who know the rules, and they will never do such a gaffe, Zhao Yue's face changed and said: "What happened?" ”

The lotus root hurriedly said, "Miss, it's not good!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince led a team of forbidden troops to surround our mansion! ”

Li Weiyang's eyes flashed with cold light, and he suddenly stood up from the chair, looked at the lotus root and said, "Is this really the case?" ”

The lotus root's eyes widened, obviously shocked: "Yes! Miss, the fifth young master ordered the slave maid to come in immediately, and asked if you want to leave through the tunnel? ”

Li Weiyang thought for a moment before smiling lightly: "Everyone has blocked all the exits, will they still leave the tunnel for me to go?" The fifth brother is really confused. With that, she straightened her clothes and walked quietly past the lotus root's side.

Zhao Yue immediately caught up and said, "Miss, don't be so stubborn!" Now that the master is not in Dadu, and the master is not there, no one can protect you. If something really happens, how do you tell the slave and maid to explain to the master? ”

Li Weiyang stood still, turned his head, glanced at Zhao Yue quietly, and said, "Don't worry, if it's really a murderous disaster, you can't avoid it." With that, she had already walked out the door briskly.

In the hall, Princess Chen Liu, Mrs. Guo, Jiang and Guo Dao were already waiting in the hall, Princess Chen Liu sat on the main seat, her face was extremely calm, and the whole hall only heard the Buddha beads in her hand crackling.

Li Weiyang glanced at the prince sitting in the hall, and said with a faint smile: "I don't know if His Royal Highness the prince came to visit late at night, what are you doing?" ”

The prince smiled slightly, and said calmly: "I came here to deliver the decree on the orders of His Majesty. Miss Guo, let's listen to my father's will first! ”

Mrs. Guo felt that it was not good, and her voice was distant and solemn: "Your Highness, what is Your Majesty's will?" ”

The prince raised the holy decree in his hand and said, "Needless to say, please prepare the incense case and kneel down to receive the decree!" ”

Princess Chen Liu and the others glanced at each other, and had to kneel down and obey the instructions. The prince's face was expressionless, and he unfolded the holy decree and read: "From now on, Guo Jia, the daughter of Guo Su, the Duke of Qi, is not allowed to leave the Mansion of the Duke of Qi without permission, so she should guard the door and think about it behind closed doors!" ”

Hearing such a sentence, Princess Chen Liu's face changed, what the hell is going on, why did the emperor make such a will? She stood up with the support of the maidservant, her eyes were unquestionable, and she looked at the prince solemnly and said, "Your Highness, why is this, how can Your Majesty give a grounding order?" Jia'er didn't do anything wrong. ”

The prince hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Princess Chen Liu, although you are an elder, don't forget the rules, let's take the order first." ”

Princess Chen Liu came back to her senses and said lightly: "Yes." She took the holy decree, saluted in the direction of the palace again, and then took another step forward after holding the holy decree herself: "Your Highness, you should always give an explanation to the Duke of Qi!" ”

The prince's face remained unchanged, but there was a faint sarcasm in his eyes: "Look at what I said, I just acted according to my father's will, and the rest has nothing to do with me." Alright, princess, you better rest well, and I'll take my leave. With that, he turned around and walked out, and just walked to the door of the hall, he suddenly heard Li Weiyang say: "I heard what the prince said just now, it seems that His Majesty is going to put all the people in my Qi State Mansion under house arrest?" ”

The prince turned his head and glanced at Li Weiyang, revealing a little unruly: "It's not everyone, but you Guo Jia alone!" It's just a matter of importance, now there are a lot of forbidden troops guarding outside, and the Guo family is allowed to enter but not leave, so they can only ask others to stay in the mansion for the time being and not run around, lest the forbidden army outside don't know each other and unintentionally collide with you. ”

Hearing him say this, the name is to put everyone under house arrest. Princess Chen Liu's cheeks were covered with a thin frost for a moment: "His Royal Highness the Prince, although you are the crown prince, I am also the princess of the royal family!" Even if you count it, your majesty will still recognize me as an aunt, not to mention that it is you junior! Why do you ignore my questions now, is this the etiquette of the royal family? I would like to ask His Majesty how to teach his son, how can he teach such an arrogant prince as you! ”

The prince was stunned, Princess Chen Liu was right. The other party's seniority is indeed much higher than his own, not to mention the prince, even if it is Queen Pei, he must give three points to the old woman in front of him. The four words of relying on the old and selling the old are really implemented by this old woman to the fullest! But what the other party said was the truth, so he couldn't refute it!

The prince's face was solemn, and he coughed lightly and said, "Princess Chenliu, if you have something to say, just say it." ”

Princess Chen Liu's brows tightened a little: "Then dare to ask the prince what happened, why did His Majesty suddenly want to imprison my granddaughter?" ”

The crown prince said expressionlessly: "Presumably the princess already knows the news that my father's old illness has relapsed and is now bedridden. ”

The emperor's old illness relapsed and he was bedridden, what does this have to do with imprisoning Guo Jia? The crown prince's gaze swept lightly over Li Weiyang's face with a slight mockery, and said word for word: "Qin Tianjian divined yesterday that they were watching the stars at night and saw a bad star that was destined to offend the emperor, so my father and emperor would relapse from his old illness and become critically ill. ”

Li Weiyang's face was only as elegant as a landscape painting, and there was no panic in his eyes: "What do you call the evil star and the emperor star?" Forgive me for being so ignorant and not being able to understand! ”

The crown prince sneered: "Father Emperor Ling Qin Tianjian studied it carefully and found out that this so-called evil star is a woman born in the lunar year, lunar month, lunar day, and lunar time in the capital!" ”

Li Weiyang smiled at the corner of his lips: "This is really a joke!" Most of the girls were born at this time, I'm afraid there are more than hundreds, right? ”

The crown prince raised his eyebrows and smiled: "This is natural, there are a total of one hundred and twenty-one, and everyone else except you has already been put in prison." If it weren't for the face of Qi Guogong, would you still be able to stand here safely? The Qin Heavenly Prison will eliminate all the suspicious women one by one within seven days, and when they determine which one it is, they will naturally eliminate the evil for His Majesty! "This means that if Qin Tianjian finally finds out who this woman who killed the Emperor Star is, he will kill her to prevent the disaster for the emperor.

is the same as the behavior of the eldest lady back then, but it is much more clever, she does not have to show up in person but puts on a benevolent face, and the person who is released in the end will still be grateful to Empress Pei who refused to kill innocents indiscriminately. Li Weiyang smiled coldly, Xiaoman was indeed born in a lunar year, a lunar month, a cloudy day, and a cloudy time. Empress Pei's trick is really vicious, if she takes the initiative to admit that she is not Xiaoman, it is to pretend to be a relative of the emperor. If she insists that she is the daughter of Qi Guogong, she will really have to carry the eight characters of this birthday. The left is also dead, the right is also dead, she can't escape, and it's really good to choose at this time, taking advantage of the fact that Yuan Lie and the others are not in Dadu, just to attack her. It seems that Empress Pei is already very impatient with Li Weiyang's deposit!

The prince looked at Li Weiyang without a trace of panic, and his heart suddenly became uneasy. He looked left and right and said, "Okay, the decree has been announced, please do it yourself." With that, he turned and walked away.

Guo Dao took a step forward and couldn't help gritting his teeth and said: "Queen Pei is really vicious, and she actually took advantage of it to make trouble." In the name of the emperor's illness, he said that he was afraid that you would collide with the emperor, and he clearly wanted to put you to death! ”

The Jiang family was the most innocent, and she couldn't help but say: "Maybe it's just a misunderstanding, when Qin Tianjian finds out who it is, my sister may not be suspected." ”

Mrs. Guo sneered: "Others are obviously coming for Jia'er, how can they let her escape?" First imprisoned, the next step is to kill her. ”

Jiang thought for a moment, but shook his head and said, "Since that's the case, why didn't you just kill your sister just now?" I want to let Qin Tianjian review it again, what to check? ”

Mrs. Guo was stunned and said, "This is ...... I don't understand it either. ”

Director Guo narrowed his eyes, and there was a cold light in his eyes: "This is easy to understand, if you rush into the Mansion of the Duke of Qi and kill the young lady of the Guo family just because of the fate of the Emperor Xing, then it will undoubtedly be a huge injury and blow to the father who is desperate on the outside and guards the country for the emperor." Empress Pei is a person who wants to be famous, and she will definitely not do this, so she refuses to make a move, and only lets Qin Tianjian speak. When Qin Tianjian confirmed the candidate to show prudence, she instigated those courtiers who did not know the truth to write to her. If all the courtiers want to kill Jia'er, it will be no wonder that she will be Queen Pei at that time. It's not that she wants Jia'er to die, but that the civil and military officials want her to die! Even if her father came back, she was helpless, and when the time came, Empress Pei could say that Qin Tianjian had repeatedly verified that Jia'er was the one who committed the Emperor Star, and then she would try her best to push the blame on those ignorant officials, and she wouldn't be able to stick the slightest dirt on her hands, because it was someone else's fault! Speaking of which, Director Guo was already very angry and resentful, and he had never disliked a person like this.

Empress Pei's methods were too cunning, and Li Weiyang sighed lightly: "It seems that from the beginning of the war to the selection of generals, everything is in Empress Pei's arrangement and arrangement. ”

Mrs. Guo was slightly surprised: "Are you saying that this matter has been a bureau from the beginning?" ”

Even though Princess Chen Liu's mind was delicate, she couldn't help but exclaim: "No, can Empress Pei still joke about national affairs?" ”

Li Weiyang smiled faintly: "What's impossible about this?" The rise of this war will have a lot of benefits for Empress Pei, and killing me is just one of them. Next, she is afraid that she will have to build momentum in the capital, saying that I am the one who caused the anxiety of His Majesty's body, or send someone to the front line to make some things happen, and make the illusion of defeat before the war, so that I will become a sinner who has brought disaster to the country and the people. At that time, even if my father wants to protect me, Yuan Lie wants to protect me, or the emperor doesn't want to kill me, he has to kill me. ”

Hearing this, Princess Chen Liu and Mrs. Guo couldn't help but turn pale. Mrs. Guo didn't expect the other party's mind to be so vicious, her chest was stuffy for a while, and her body shook a little, Jiang Shi hurriedly supported her and said, "Mother, are you okay?" ”

Mrs. Guo gritted her teeth, shook her head and said, "I want to go into the palace to see Concubine Hui." ”

Li Weiyang stopped her: "Mother, Niangniang has already sent someone to send me a warning tonight, but her warning came too late." In this situation, let's close the door and stop here. ”

Hearing Li Weiyang say this, Princess Chen Liu said coldly: "This poisonous woman is really ridiculous! My son is fighting at the border, but I want to be locked up in this confinement in the palace, what kind of world is this? ”

Li Weiyang listened to Princess Chen Liu's words with pathos, and couldn't help but sigh lightly, and said, "I think Concubine Hui should be very anxious at the moment. Zhao Yue, you should try to send her a letter of peace. ”

Although there are many guards outside, with Zhao Yue's martial arts, there is still a way to get out. When Zhao Yue heard this, she nodded.

Director Guo looked at Li Weiyang, and couldn't hide his anger between his eyebrows: "I think Empress Pei trapped us, not just to attack you." ”

Li Weiyang smiled slightly, and seemed to have reservations: "She trapped me and the Duke of Qi State Mansion in order to balance King Xu Yuanlie and my father and brother who were far away on the frontier. It is the best way to respond to all changes without change, let's not act rashly for the time being, especially you, fifth brother, if you make a move, those people outside will take the opportunity to impose the charge of disobeying the holy decree on the Duke of Qi. ”

Director Guo's fist clenched, but then he released helplessly. He looked at the cold sky, but after all, he just let out a long sigh and sat down quietly.

And at this time, the Wang family had also learned the news. Wang Zijin sat in front of the mirror, looking at himself in the mirror, the beauty of the person in the mirror was incomparable, as long as there was a look of anticipation, she couldn't hide the romance, but at the moment she had no intention of appreciating, only thinking about it. Wutong whispered: "Miss, you see that the Guo family has fallen behind in this situation. ”

Wang Zijin nodded and said lightly: "Yes, I'm afraid Guo Jia has already thought that Empress Pei will do something to her, but why isn't she in a hurry?" ”

Wutong sneered and said: "Miss, she can't escape if she wants to, the whole Yuexi has the eyes of the queen's mother, even if she wants to dodge, where can she avoid it?" ”

Wang Zijin sighed lightly: "I really can't imagine that Empress Pei would not hesitate to provoke a war in order to deal with the Duke of Qi. She thought about it but vetoed: "No, this battle is not just for Guo Jia, Empress Pei wants to get more things, but what does she want to get?" As she said this, she stood up and walked around the room, as if her heart was at war with heaven and man.

Wutong saw that her expression was uncertain, so he said cautiously: "Miss, do you still want to help the Guo family now?" ”

Wang Zijin was stunned for a moment, and turned his head suddenly: "What did you say?" ”

Wutong saw that she was angry, and hurriedly said: "Miss, the slave maid is for the sake of the Wang family, you must know that now the Guo family is destined to be eaten by Empress Pei." The slave maid hopes that the young lady will focus on the overall situation, and it is better not to get too close to the Guo family. ”

Wang Zijin shouted: "Wutong, you are so bold! When does the master's matter come to the slave and maid to interject? ”

Wutong immediately knelt down, glanced at Wang Zijin worriedly, and said in a low voice: "Miss, the slave maid is just thinking about the Wang family, and she will never dare to hide it." If the slave and maid stay out of the matter, you can not say such things, you know, the slave and maid have been with you for so many years, how can they not think about you? ”

Wang Zijin's gaze swept over Wutong's face, she knew that Wutong had never had a good impression of Guo Jia, and since Ri Yao died, he was even more resentful, and often showed his resentment towards Guo Jia in front of herself. It's no wonder, she smiled lightly and said: "Wutong, I know that you and Ri Yao are sisters, but one thing is one thing, you should not say it, you should keep your mouth." ”

Wutong's cold sweat almost dripped down, but his eyes were full of tears, he kowtowed heavily on the ground, and said softly: "Miss, the slave doesn't want to avenge Rixi, but I just think that Guo Jia is not a good thing." The dispute between her and Empress Pei is his own affair in the Duke of Qi. There is no need for our Wang family to be involved, isn't Miss a person who pursues her own self? This time I just drew a line with her, otherwise Empress Pei will be held accountable in the future......"

Wang Zijin looked at the other party, the suspicion in her eyes gradually faded, she turned around and walked to the window, gently pushed open the window, the raindrops outside had fallen, she looked at the dense dark clouds, but her eyes were confused. Wutong is right, Li Weiyang is a very smart person, and he should always be careful and cautious when dealing with her. Although Wang Zijin helped her, he also guarded her, and she knew that Li Weiyang was the same, and they were allies like them, but they would only be combined for the common interests of each other. Once something happens, the Wang family will be the first to retreat. She hesitated for a moment, looked back at Wutong and said, "You have followed me for so many years, I believe in you, get up." ”

Wutong only felt cold all over, her knees were weak, she knew that her young lady was a very decisive person, and she was very suspicious, and it was very likely that if she said something wrong, it would make her suspicious. She suppressed the apprehension in her heart, and said with a smile on her face: "As long as the young lady knows that the slave maid thinks about the Wang family." ”

Wang Zijin looked at Wutong, but his gaze became very distant: "I don't know that it is a little dangerous to be friends with Guo Jia, and when it comes to the critical moment, how can she give up her greatest interests to the Wang family?" But after I take refuge in Pei, will there be any good end? No, I'm afraid that the end will be even worse! The lesser of two evils. ”

Wutong hurriedly said: "Miss, you misunderstood!" The slave maid didn't want you to take refuge in Empress Pei, but I just felt that you should think about how to keep your distance from the other party and not be involved in this conspiracy. ”

Wang Zijin looked at Wutong and said with a smile: "Wutong, how did I find out that you have become much smarter these days?" ”

Wutong smiled hastily: "Miss is falsely praised, the slave maid is still an elm head, how can she be worthy of the appearance of a young lady." ”

Wang Zijin smiled coldly, and finally took his gaze back, and Wutong breathed a sigh of relief. But she didn't know that Wang Zijin's heart was spinning rapidly, and she was thinking about the possibility of what Wutong said.

Yes, she can't be tied to death with Li Weiyang, and now Empress Pei has taken the initiative in this situation. Qi Guogong and King Xu were both fighting outside, and far water could not quench their thirst, and neither of them could help Li Weiyang get rid of his crimes. I'm afraid that in two days, everyone will know that Li Weiyang is the evil star that hinders the Emperor Star. In case of one or two more defeats on the battlefield, I am afraid that there will be rumors in the army that this young lady of the Qi State Mansion is the reincarnation of the evil star, which is very dangerous, not only hurting the body of the dragon, but also harming the country's society. Even if Li Weiyang doesn't want to die, he has to die.

Wang Zijin gently walked two steps in the room, and finally she paused, made up her mind, looked at Wutong and said, "You ordered everyone to go down and keep the door closed, no matter who came to see me, they said that I was not there." ”

This is what it means to stay out of the matter, Wutong hurriedly lowered his head: "Miss is wise!" At this time, a sneer appeared on her lips, and she was about to withdraw, when she suddenly heard a sound from the pane. Wang Zijin turned back suddenly, and saw a young woman in a strong suit standing in the middle of the room. Wang Zijin took three steps back in shock: "You, how did you get in?" ”

Zhao Yue smiled slightly, stepped forward and bowed and said, "Miss Wang, I have a gift for you." ”

Wang Zijin frowned and said, "Guo Jia? She has something for me? ”

Zhao Yue looked calm, stepped forward and handed the bag in his hand to Wang Zijin. Wutong hurriedly blocked in front of her and scolded: "You are so bold, you dare to trespass into the Wang family!" As she spoke, she craned her neck and called out to the guards outside. But I heard Zhao Yue smile coldly and said, "Do you think those people can stop me?" ”

Wang Zijin stopped Wutong, just looked at Zhao Yue quietly and said, "Your young lady has already cracked the formation outside?" ”

Zhao Yue's expression was calm: "Miss only instructed the slave maid to send this gift, and the other slaves and maids didn't know anything." As she spoke, she retreated sharply, and in a moment she disappeared in front of the window. Except for a gust of wind that blew the window paper rattling, nothing was left.

Wang Zijin looked at the wind and rain outside, and couldn't help but clench the bag in his hand. Wutong said nervously: "Miss, don't be fooled, there may be something bad in it, it's better to hand it over to the slave and maid to throw it away!" ”

Wang Zijin glanced at her coldly, and said lightly: "Guo Jia is not such a person, you look down on her too much!" ”

As she spoke, she opened the bag in her hand and poured out the contents. Wutong was afraid that there was some sharp weapon in the bag, and was about to stop it, but he saw that Wang Zijin only had some emerald green tea leaves in his hand that looked like the leaves were not small.

Wutong was stunned: "Miss, what is this?" ”

Wang Zijin's eyes trembled slightly, looked at the green in his hand, and suddenly said softly: "This is tea." ”

Sycamore naturally knows that this is tea. But what's the use of Li Weiyang sending this tea now?

Wang Zijin pondered for a moment, and then said lightly: "This is called Lu'an Gua Pian, this kind of tea is very special, it only grows in the mountains, and the growing environment is always surrounded by mountains and mist, which is difficult for ordinary people to get." ”

Hearing Wang Zijin say this, Wutong pursed her lips, and the tea leaves that Wang Zijin was holding in front of her that looked like sunflower seeds were nothing special in her opinion. In fact, Wutong didn't know that these Lu'an melon slices were the best tea, growing in the remnants of the mountains, and often on cliffs that were rarely visited. Legend has it that 70 years ago, in the spring, a group of women went up the mountain to pick tea, one of them had no intention of getting lost, but found a tea tree near the bat cave. The magic is that the tea buds are picked and haired, and the more they are picked, the more they are picked, until it is dark, and the new buds are still full of trees. The next day, she climbed the vine again, but the tea tree was gone, so the good talk of divine tea spread. Because of this, this kind of tea is extremely difficult to find and cannot be cultivated artificially, which shows its preciousness. What's more, this tea was lost as early as twenty or thirty years ago, and no one can find it again.

Wutong sneered and said: "She is really idle, she is under house arrest, and she would even send such a thing to Miss?" Did she think that such a little tea would impress Miss? It's ridiculous! ”

But Wang Zijin didn't speak, she just looked at the tea leaves in her hand, and her expression changed.

Wutong said in surprise: "Miss, are you really moved by her?" No, it's just some tea, and no matter how precious the tea is, it can't be found with the young lady's ability. ”

Wang Zijin slowly sat down in his chair. She put the tea on the table very cherished, and her smile became strange: "At that time, I only occasionally mentioned to Guo Jia that I wanted to find this tea, and she actually remembered it. ”

Wutong couldn't help but be disgusted, and said coldly: "So what? ”

Wang Zijin sighed softly, and a trace of warmth slowly appeared in her expression, and finally she stood up and said, "Someone!" Someone outside immediately responded, and the four guards had already come in, and Wang Zijin suddenly pointed to Wutong and said, "Tie her up!" ”

Wutong was taken aback, and said with a shocked face: "Miss, what are you doing here?" ”

Wang Zijin restrained his warmth, there was a thick haze in his eyes, and he was angry: "I don't know how much benefit Empress Pei gave you to let you come to me as a spy." It's just that I categorically didn't expect that you, who have been with me for so many years, would betray, which really chills me! ”

Wutong couldn't believe it, Wang Zijin didn't blame himself just now, why has it changed now? She said loudly: "Miss, the slave doesn't have it!" ”

Wang Zijin looked at her coldly, but his expression became very mocking: "Do you think I didn't know that you had betrayed me just now?" I'm just trying to leave a way out for myself. ”

Wutong's heart was cold, just now Wang Zijin clearly knew that she was a spy, but she still left herself, and even echoed her own intentions, which means that she did not completely cut off her intention to take Pei Hou's path at the beginning. But now that she has ordered someone to tie herself up, could it be that she is determined to follow Guo Jia one by one? Is she crazy? Wutong forced himself and said in a panic: "Miss, do you think Guo Jia will definitely win?" ”

Wang Zijin sighed lightly and looked calm: "I don't know if she will win, but I should accept this intention alone." ”

Wutong really doesn't understand the mere Lu'an melon chips, why can Wang Zijin change his mind? She said loudly: "Miss, no matter how precious it is, Niangniang can find it for you." ”

Wang Zijin sneered and waved his hand, and the guards immediately escorted Wutong down. Wutong's shouts continued to come, but Wang Zijin's eyes had already turned to the tea leaves on the table. The smile on her face was strange, but her voice was very slow: "Wutong, it was not these tea leaves that moved me, but Guo Jia's heart." ”

Li Weiyang sent these teas with only one intention, that is, to tell Prince SΓΉ a word: I need you!

But the mind of any woman is very wonderful, especially a woman like Wang Zijin. She had been wavering before, and the most important reason was that Li Weiyang had aroused Wang Zijin's strong jealousy. Because the other party was too powerful, she had to feel ashamed, knowing that cooperating with Empress Pei was to seek skin with the tiger, but she was always hesitating. But now such a powerful person actually said the word "need" to her, how could this not make her proud? Li Weiyang needs her as a friend, which is tantamount to directly acknowledging her status and honor. What's more, helping Empress Pei kill Li Weiyang is the icing on the cake, but helping Li Weiyang fight Empress Pei is a matter of fire. The icing on the cake is that all she gets for her Wang family is peace and security, but she has the opportunity to do a big job!

It is meaningless to be too smooth sailing, and how to turn around in adversity, she also wants to know. Anyway, she will accompany Li Weiyang to gamble to the end in this game!
