"Your Majesty, the minister has explained so calmly, do you still want to fight with the minister? Over the years, it is not easy for our monarchs and ministers to support each other to get to this day, so they have intersected with each other, can't they even explain things openly and honestly today? Huo Shijiu pulled the little emperor's sleeve and led him to sit on the couch by the window, while he stood aside, bowed his head and said respectfully: "If the minister understands you, you also understand the minister." The minister's temperament, Benxi pastoral landscape is free, even if he was famous, he just wanted to try it when he was old, and he didn't study hard, but the minister also knew in his heart at the time that with the current national conditions of the Great Yan Dynasty, that is, the minister can really have the heart to travel around the mountains and rivers, and under the unstable situation of the country, the minister may not be able to play peacefully.

"The minister was fortunate to get acquainted with the first emperor, that is, the minister did not know his esteemed status, only chatted with him, and also said that he was going to send love to the mountains and rivers and couldn't let go of his mind because of the national troubles, so that later, he became a brother who worshiped the son, and when he went to the palace test, he knew that the righteous brother was the current emperor."

Huo Shijiu's voice was full of nostalgia, as if he had returned to more than ten years ago, when he was still a high-spirited young man in Wuling, at that time, he was really full of enthusiasm and was not afraid of the earth.

The little emperor lacks fatherly love, and he relies on Huo Shijiu, so why didn't he look for father's love in him? Listening to his words at this moment, it seems that I can also think of all kinds of things when my father was alive.

The indifference around the two of them dissipated a little because of Huo Nineteen's nostalgia.

Huo Shijiu lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt down slowly, looked up at the little emperor sitting on the couch, and said calmly and sincerely: "Over the years, the minister. It's a real effort. Physically and mentally exhausted. I just ask the emperor that in the future, he can allow the minister to bring his family to tell the old, and the minister is just a useless scholar in the end. ”

"You ......" the little emperor spoke, only to find that his throat was a little hoarse because of excitement, and he coughed and cleared his throat before saying: "Brother Ying's talent and ambition, if he really disbands his armor and returns to the field, wouldn't it be a tyrannical thing?" ”

"There are many talented people in the world, so why can't there be one without Huo Ying? As long as the emperor can recruit virtuous people in the future and convince people with virtue. Show your true side, and there will be many loyal and talented people who are willing to do their best for you. The minister is really tired. Moreover, the minister also hopes to maintain such an intimate relationship with the emperor all the time, even if the minister is in the rivers and lakes in the future, he can miss the emperor from afar, if there is a chance to meet, you and the minister can still be as before without distinguishing between you and me, instead of pushing each other farther and farther away......"

When the little emperor heard Huo Shijiu's words so true, he was moved and reluctant in his heart. What moved was Huo Shijiu's choice. For them it really is the best. What he was reluctant to do was his dependence on Huo Nineteen, which really made him reluctant to let him go. However. Even if he is reluctant, if Huo Shijiu can really retire in the future, his sense of crisis will indeed be reduced.

"That's it." The little emperor took Huo Shijiu's hand, and the two stood up together, standing opposite each other, "These are all things in the future, Brother Ying is my dependence, and he will always be." ”

Knowing that he had already moved the little emperor, Huo Shijiu didn't say anything more.

The little emperor's purpose of coming to reconcile with Huo 19 this time has been achieved, but Huo 19 can immediately start the next step, so he discussed again.

Huo Jiu only said: "Treat the minister's body better, and the concubine is in a good mood to operate, but now her heart has been torn into several pieces, and she has to take care of the minister, and she has to take care of her in-laws who miss her grandson, and she really lacks skills." ”

In the end, I still want a son!

The little emperor really felt depressed and angry, and he remembered what Huo Nineteen had taught him in the past. When two people's interests conflict, that's probably the case, right?

The little emperor wanted to ask Huo Nineteen directly, can't you sacrifice your son for me?

But this was too cheeky for him to open his mouth.

The little emperor continued to prevaricate on the topic.

Huo Shijiu saw that the emperor was like this, and he knew that there was no hope, so he said that he was going to rest.

The little emperor was embarrassed and had to return to the palace.

Before leaving the Hou Mansion, in order to show his concern for Huo Shijiu, he also instructed Jing Tong: "You stay, go find a few more reliable imperial doctors, and go to me to spend money to give Brother Ying good medicine." Brother Ying is not in good health, so don't go back to the palace to serve. ”

Jing Tong is a person who serves the emperor closely, although he is an internal servant, his status and identity are really unusual, leaving him to serve Huo Nineteen is really a great honor and for the people.

And for the Huo family, this is also a great hot potato.

For this kind of eunuch who can often come into contact with the emperor and can blow the wind in his ears casually, it is really important to take it lightly.

Mo said that the Huo family felt hot, and Jing Tong was also bitter.

At this time, he couldn't hide from Huo Nineteen, and the emperor left him here. In case he accidentally upset the uncle, Huo Shijiu really dared to cut it first and then play. He is a eunuch, can he still be able to defeat the evil god who up his eyes and kills people?

Jing Tong trembled and instructed the emperor to order, and went back to the inner house.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Cao Yu smiled and said, "Grandpa Jing has worked hard. ”

"Oh, Gongzi Cao doesn't need to be so polite, he really tortures the slave." Jing Tong hurriedly saluted.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker, Jing Tong asked, "When did Master Hou have dinner?" Let's go and tell someone to prepare. ”

"Don't bother Father-in-law Jing, these little things will naturally be done, there is a banquet at home today, and someone has just come to pass the word, Master Hou said please go with you."

"This can't be helped, the slave is a subordinate after all, since it is the Hou Ye's family banquet, how can the slave join in this fun? The minions are waiting here. ”

The soft curtain of the main house was lifted, and Huo Shijiu and Jiang Yu came out together. Jiang Yu looked at Jing at the same time, and there was some cold sharp light in the bright apricot eyes under the eyebrows of the flying sword like an ice pick.

Jing Tong shuddered with fright, and hurriedly lowered his eyes and saluted: "Master Hou, madam." ”

Huo Jiu smiled and said: "Let's go, Father-in-law Jing will go to eat together, it will be lively." ”

Huo Shijiu personally commanded, even if Jing Tong had a full stomach of reasoning, he didn't dare to excuse himself, and only secretly cried in his heart Why did the emperor leave him here, and really thought that he could control the Huo family alone?

When walking all the way to the front hall, there are maidservants in the house who pick up the lights before and after. Huo Shijiu and Jiang Yu were in front, Jing was in the back, Cao Yu was the last, and the group slowly moved forward.

Huo Shijiu asked idly: "That day, Father-in-law Jing mentioned it, but he hasn't thanked him yet." Thank you, father-in-law. ”

Mention ......

Huo Nineteen said this, and Jing Tong's hairs stood up. That time, he called someone to invite Huo Nineteen into the palace, but he really didn't mention it, it was almost the same as leading Huo Nineteen to hit the knife edge. It seems that this Jianhui's temperament has not changed, remember!

"Slaves don't dare to be, Hou Ye is a popular man in front of the emperor, you have always been the only one who mentions other people's things, slaves are dull, they haven't studied much since they were children, and they are dull temperaments, if there is something wrong with them, Hou Ye can beat them, scold them, and teach them."

"Gonggong Jing is a person around the emperor, and if he wants to teach, he will naturally be able to do it by the emperor." Huo Jiuwan smiled, his voice was as gentle as a warm spring breeze, but Jing Tong's heart seemed to have a snowstorm.

"The minions know that they are wrong. Ask the Hou Ye to punish him. As soon as his knees weakened, Jing Tong knelt down.

Huo Shijiu and Jiang Wei stopped and looked back, both smiling.

"Father-in-law, what are you doing, please get up. Let people take a look, I'm afraid that someone will say that my family Aying is not. Jiang Yu slowly approached.

Jing Tong followed the emperor, what did he not know? This aunt is a master who cuts people when she stares, will she still be polite to him?

Jing Tong was frightened and retreated: "The slave doesn't dare, the slave will definitely serve the emperor with all his heart and soul in the palace, take care of the little prince, and dare not be slacking off in the slightest." ”

"Yes." Jiang Wei squatted down, patted Jing Tong's clean face with her bare hands, and said with a smile: "Of course that's good, but I have a question." I can't figure it out, while there is no one else here, why don't my father-in-law explain my confusion? ”

Jing Tong saw that Huo Shijiu turned his back and went with Cao Yu, even the maid with the lantern left, and the light gradually moved away, leaving him and Jiang Yu here, and the horror in his heart was even worse. At this time, Jiang Wei is not difficult to break his neck and destroy his corpse.

"Madame, please, please."

"I want to know why the emperor was furious that day and wiped out the seven clans of the Xu family."

Jing Tong's face turned pale instantly. If such a secret thing is told, won't it make people laugh at the emperor? But don't you say that you're going to die right now, right?

After thinking about it, it is more important to live your own life.

Jing Tong stammered, and half of the things were covered up, and half of them were not said, how smart Jiang Wei was, needless to say, she already understood.

"So these days, the emperor hasn't investigated anything?"

"Yes, there is a check."

"Oh." Jiang Yan stretched out her voice, pulled Jingtong to stand up, walked to the dining room side by side with her, and said with a smile: "I am a rough person, I like to solve problems in a simple and violent way the most, unlike our family's A-Ying's gentle temperament, and I like to stuff everything in my stomach." Father-in-law Jing needs to remember, if you are not happy, I don't care who is who, I will kill the matter first, at this juncture, you also know who the emperor depends on. ”

"What Mrs. Jinninghou said is extremely true." Beads of sweat the size of beans slid down Jingtong's cheeks.

Jiang Yu said again: "There is also a brother in Gonggong Jing's hometown, I also ordered someone to go and see it a while ago, and see that they used the silver you gave over the years, and they are doing well." Thinking of your hard work in taking care of the emperor all these years, I also gave them some silver, which is enough for a lifetime of worry-free food and clothing. ”

"Thank you, Marquis Jinning, and Mrs." Jing Tong saluted again.

The so-called worry-free food and clothing, she can give it, and she can also take it!

Jing Tong didn't dare to think about anything else, but the person who died appeared in his mind, and he felt sad again.

He's tried his best for so long, can't he really do it? (To be continued......)
