Chapter 377: Missing

Loyal and brave duke?

Jiang Yan shook her fan and blinked her bright apricot eyes, nodded and said, "A-Ying is indeed worthy of the word loyalty and bravery." ”

"The emperor is wise, loyal and brave has assisted the emperor for many years, and those who come and go in the wind and rain must be worthy of these two words." The daughter-in-law saluted, and the rest of the servants in the house also saluted.

Luo Rui was more lively, so she smiled and said, "The maid has seen the Duchess Zhongyong. ”

Jiang Yu smiled and asked them to get up.

Such things as the promotion of officials and knights are indeed good things that make people happy. But these things do not mean so much to them. Huo Shijiu has been a loyal and brave prince all the way from the Marquis of Jinning, and he is still a hereditary title, which is equivalent to being firmly bound by the emperor's grace in the future.

They had originally planned to wait for the British Duke to be completely resolved, and to find an opportunity to leave in the future. So what?

Thinking like this, Jiang Yu became a little worried and irritable in her heart. He didn't want to show any affection in front of his subordinates, but he only called himself tired, and told everyone to go down and rest.

Listening to the rain's heart, and knowing Jiang Yan's temperament better, seeing that she was not very happy but asked more because of her difficult identity, she only paid attention to it and waited carefully on the side.

"Ma'am." A little girl replied in a crisp voice under the corridor: "It's the master of the in-laws who ordered someone to come, please go to the guest house to talk about it." ”

Jiang Yu sat up straight when she heard this, and asked Tingyu on the side: "Is it that A-Ying's matter has spread throughout the whole house?" ”

"It should be yes, just now the Li family came to spread the word and did not avoid others, and those maids and wives like to chat about these things the most, presumably the whole house already knows about it now."

Jiang Yu nodded slightly when she heard this.

Hearing the rain, he immediately raised his voice and said: "You are fast, go to the outer courtyard to tell the master of the family first." Let's just say that Madame will arrive later. ”

"Yes."

The little girl stepped back. The footsteps faded away.

Jiang Yu took Tingyu and Yuqiao with her. Take a walk to the outer courtyard. Listening to the rain's thoughtfulness, he was worried that Jiang Yu would be tired halfway, so he specially ordered the stout mother-in-law to carry a sedan chair and follow behind. The breeze blows at night in the summer, compared to the heat of the day, the temperature at this time is very comfortable, Jiang Yu slept again in the afternoon, and was in good spirits at this time, and the servants and maids in front and behind picked up the lamp. Talking and laughing all the way to the guest house, Jiang Chenfeng had been waiting in front of the door for a long time, and when he saw Jiang Yu and his party coming, he trotted to the front.

"Third sister."

The servants saluted in unison.

Jiang Yu sent them down first and went to the courtyard side by side with Jiang Chenfeng.

"Daddy knows?"

"Well, I just heard the news, and I was going to go to bed early, but I didn't want to sleep anymore because I was excited, and I just went to find you. It was dark, and his legs and feet were inconvenient. You are physically strong, and proper exercise is also good for your body. I simply advised him not to move, and asked you to come and see him. ”

Jiang Wei smiled and said: "The second brother still understands me, I slept all afternoon, and my flesh was stiff from sleep, don't you just want to go out for a walk, it's not so hot at this time, I'm not afraid of heat stroke, it's good to come and chat with you." ”

Jiang Xuewen was sitting on the drunkard chair placed near the window at this moment, and the evening breeze was blowing through the screen window, making the room very cool, and the chatter outside was getting closer and closer.

Seeing that Jiang Yan was on the Danqi, Jiang Xuewen hurriedly said loudly: "Brother Chen'er is holding some of your third sisters, and you stumble carefully." ”

Jiang Chenfeng obediently helped Jiang Yan, but he was slandering in his heart, Jiang Yan still needs someone to help her walk like this? Don't say that your body is less than three months old, and it won't become clumsy even if you are about to give birth.

Jiang Yu entered the room and saw a silk lamp on the small table of the Luohan bed where Jiang Xuewen was sitting, outlining his face in light and dark shadows, with one leg hanging down, and the other hanging down was a vacant trouser tube.

Seeing Jiang Xuewen like this, Jiang Yu's heart was sour, so she called softly: "Dad." ”

"Hey, come and sit down."

The three of them sat down, and Jiang Xuewen asked excitedly: "Uncle is now a loyal and brave man?" ”

"yes. The fief may not have changed, but the title has changed. Jiang Wei shook her head and smiled: "I thought he was already at the extreme of being a marquis, after all, he is so young, and the plain marquis is enough to be criticized." ”

"This is different, my uncle can be appreciated by the emperor because he has really paid all these years." Jiang Xuewen said sincerely: "Dad is really happy for him and happy for you." Fortunately, the curtain from heaven did not make me irreparable. ”

"Daddy. Let the past be passed. Jiang Yu looked at Jiang Xuewen and said with relief: "Don't think about it anymore, at that time, the position was different, for you, A-Ying was indeed a heinous bad person." You want to get rid of him for the sake of Yan Kingdom. Maybe you've gone a little too far, but your intentions are good. Now that everything has passed, and the world knows the truth, we are satisfied. ”

How long has Jiang Xuewen been hoping that Jiang Xue can forget the unpleasantness of the past, the relationship between their father and daughter should not be so stiff, but now it is getting what he wants, and then thinking of Huo Jiu like that, his heart is very excited, his eyes are wet, and he nodded again and again: "Okay, good." ”

Jiang Yu used to only think that Jiang Xuewen's age was the best age for men, and he was still young, but now when he looked at him, he found that not only Huo Nineteen's temples were stained with frost and dust these days, but Jiang Xuewen's wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were already very deep.

Who has the years spared? This life will soon pass, and those who have to let go must let go, and cherishing what they have is serious.

Jiang Yu accompanied Jiang Xuewen and Jiang Chenfeng to talk for a while, until it was dark, and Jiang Xuewen took a sedan back to the inner house when it was time for Jiang Xuewen to rest.

The rough mother-in-law who carried the sedan chair was carefully selected, and her hands were very stable at this time, Jiang Yan's sedan chair only entered the second door, and she listened to the mother-in-law who guarded the door and replied: "Madam, the grandfather has just come back, and he has just entered the weeping flower door and gone inside." ”

Jiang Yu smiled and nodded in response.

Sure enough, after walking for a short time, he could already see the back of Huo Shijiu and Cao Yu walking slowly side by side in front of him.

Listening to the rain called "Grandpa". Huo Jiu turned around and saw Jiang Yu coming back in a bamboo sedan chair.

"Where has this hour gone?"

"Go to Daddy."

When I arrived, there was a strong smell of alcohol, and Jiang Fei covered half of her face with a fan, and teased: "I was poured into a lot of bars tonight?" ”

Huo Jiu knew that she couldn't smell the smell of alcohol now, so she stepped aside and said with a smile: "Today I finally got someone to catch it, and I was not strong enough to drink, so I was a little uncomfortable to eat, but fortunately, the emperor sent me a message to exchange for water to drink." ”

Jiang Yu smiled when she heard this, and first instructed her mother-in-law to go back to the inner house, and said, "You go slowly, just to dissipate the smell of wine, and I will first order someone to prepare warm water for you to bathe when I go back." ”

"Okay." Huo Shijiu looked at the small sedan chair that Jiang Yan was riding far away, and then said: "Mo Ran, since Miss Yang is leaving, you should also go to see her off, in fact, as I just said, if you really feel reluctant, you can leave her." Now that the British Duke has been imprisoned, and the emperor is busy with court affairs, he probably can't remember her coming. ”

"Master, her decision is her own decision, and I can't participate." Cao Yu sighed: "Since I don't plan to do anything with her, why should I keep her if she wants to leave?" That's her freedom. ”

"You're really not going to think about it?" Huo Jiujiu didn't care that the person Cao Yu liked was his wife, from the perspective of a friend, he really didn't want to see Cao Yu go on like this, he was not a big person, could he still be lonely for a lifetime?

Cao Yu just smiled and didn't say what he thought in his heart.

Once the sea was difficult to turn into water, except that Wushan was not a cloud, he admitted it so much, don't say that Huo Shijiu will not like it in his heart when he knows it, that is, let Du Duojiang know, I am afraid that he will have to punish him again.

The news of Huo Nineteen's new promotion to Zhongyong Gong quickly spread, and the emperor's reward also arrived at Huo's house early the next morning, Jiang Yu did not go to see off Wenda Jiahui, but happened to see Jing Tong who came in person, and after talking for a while, he also sent a big red seal.

For a few days, Huo Shijiu's heroic deeds were spread all over the streets and alleys, and among the people who wanted to call him a good death, he became a loyal minister who endured humiliation and was dedicated to the country and did not care about personal gains and losses, and even many young students who had seen Huo Shijiu once, and began to imitate Huo Shijiu's clothes. In just a few days, young talents can often be seen on the street wearing light-colored long shirts, or some wearing black.

Jiang Yu couldn't help laughing out loud when she heard the colorful narration of Luo Rui, who went out to buy fresh fruits.

Luo Rui smiled: "Madame Mo Xiao, what the maid said is true, don't you know, even the maid went to buy a fruit today, and people were polite when they heard that I was the maid of the Zhongyong Mansion." ”

It's no wonder that Luo Rui opened the conversation box excitedly, as Huo Shijiu's family, she has been spurned for so long, and suddenly her previous notoriety is swept away, and she doesn't have to be happy now.

"Grandpa." The soft curtain was lifted, and Huo Shijiu walked in quickly.

Jiang Yan's original intention of laughing immediately faded when she saw Huo Shijiu's slightly unhappy handsome face, withdrew the people around her, and asked in a low voice: "A-Ying, why did you come back so early today, did you encounter something difficult, or did someone act that you didn't like?" ”

Huo Jiujiu took Jiang Yan's hand, looked at her long and supple hair that fell on her chest, and was stunned for a while, before saying, "It's Lu Tianming who is missing." ”

"Missing?" Jiang Yu was stunned and said, "So a big living person will suddenly disappear from the 100,000 soldiers and horses of the Gyeonggi battalion?" ”

This is how it was reported, and the emperor was furious when he heard it. And he asked me what I meant. ”

"And how did you answer?"

Jiang Yu took the fan and gently shook it for Huo Nineteen, Huo Nineteen said: "I only said that the affairs of the British Mansion are publicized, which is an inevitable result." ”

Jiang Yu pursed her lips when she heard this. It's no wonder that the little emperor is not angry when he hears such an answer.

"So he's starting to ask you what to do again?"

"Hmm." Huo Jiu grabbed his hair irritably and said, "This has happened one after another, disrupting my plan. (To be continued......)
