Chapter 318: Loyalty
On the way back to the palace, the little emperor felt that not only his body and hands were trembling, but even his heart was trembling.
The succession of the imperial heir has always been a major event. If he can't be humane in the future, and he loses the prince today, he doesn't know how to explain to the people of the world. What's more, he did something today to make up for his previous guilt towards Huo Jiu, so he could open his mouth to ask for his next move, if it was really because of his momentary selfishness, Huo Jiu's only son had an accident in the palace, how should he face him and Jiang Yu?
Jiang Wei is such a powerful character, maybe he will directly sneak into the palace and kill him, and the little emperor is not even sure at this time, the day when Jiang Yu really wants to kill him, will Huo Jiujiu protect him......
Hurriedly returning to the palace, the little emperor completely lost the style he still had to hold in the past, and rode straight into the inner palace. Because the prince is weak and is the emperor's treasure, he is not at ease to hand over to any concubine, worried that the strength behind the concubine will be unfavorable to the child, so he ordered more than ten grandmothers and the imperial doctor who is good at pediatrics to serve in his dormitory.
When he rode his horse to the outside of the dormitory, he saw the people in the palace gathering in a panic in front of the temple gate.
The little emperor's heart suddenly tightened, his eyes went dark, and he fell from his horse.
"Your Majesty!" Jing Tong happened to be in front of the horse to serve the emperor to dismount, seeing the person falling, he hurriedly picked up it with both hands, and the heavy object was pressed down with momentum, he sat on the ground with the emperor in his arms, only to feel that his ankle was twisted at an abnormal angle, and he even heard a slight "click" sound, the pain was piercing, and tears poured out at once. But he couldn't take care of himself. Screaming at the top of his voice, "Come on." Emperor! Your Majesty, don't scare the minions! Emperor! โ
The little emperor's eyes were dark, but he was only dizzy for a while, and suddenly woke up in Jingtong's shouts, and saw that the palace maids and eunuchs all came out and knelt on the ground in a regular manner, and he endured it so that he didn't call himself too ugly.
Standing up tremblingly, he said calmly: "It's okay, I'm just dizzy for a while." What's going on here? "Only he knows. His legs were shaking under the cover of his regular clothes.
Jing Tong got up, his right foot didn't dare to hit the ground, beads of sweat the size of beans slipped from his head, and he still said dutifully: "What's the matter, the emperor asked." โ
The palace people led by him kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, she was just the nurse of the Hou Shizi of Jinning, and she suddenly vomited blood while serving the soup of the prince, and the imperial doctor was inside at this time." โ
The little emperor's lips were in a straight line, and he hurriedly entered the courtyard with his hands in his hand, and strode up the Danqi. to the inner sanctum.
I saw the seven-pound nurse Li, lying flat on the hand. The two imperial doctors squatted beside her for diagnosis and treatment, and Li's eyes kept squinting, and he didn't know if he knew it clearly, but he kept staring at the palace maid holding the "seven catties" on the side. Blood continued to pour out of her mouth, sliding down her cheeks and down her ears.
"Your Majesty." The palace man and the imperial physician saluted.
The little emperor asked, "What's the matter?" What about the little prince? โ
"Back to the emperor, the little prince is in the side hall, and the nurse is with him. ไธqiฤๅฎๅฅฝ. โ
At this time, the little emperor wanted to put his feet into the house to make sure that the child was really well, but if he wore it, he was afraid that people would say that he was not generous, so he nodded and asked, "What's going on?" โ
"Your Majesty." The imperial doctor kowtowed and said, "Please forgive the minister for being incompetent, what is in this grandmother is the poison of arsenic, and the minister has already experienced it, and the poison is in the soup of the little prince." โ
"How's the son?" The little emperor's palms were sweating.
The palace maid who was holding seven catties hurriedly saluted and said: "The prince is asleep at this time, just now Mama Li tasted the soup first, saying that she was afraid that the soup was too hot, so she didn't rush to serve the prince, no, Mama Li will ...... at this time."
The little emperor's mind was racing, and he already understood something, he lifted his robe and put it in front of Li, and said in a deep voice: "Li, you hate loyalty." โ
Li Shi choked and shook his head, tears welled up in his eyes, and his weak voice said intermittently: "Your Majesty, there are people who want to harm the son of the world, slaves and maids, please the emperor, save the son, save the son, save the son......"
"Don't worry, seven catties will be my son in the future, and I will guard him and will not let anyone hurt him. Do you still have unfulfilled wishes? โ
"Ask the emperor to take care of the slave and maid's family."
The little emperor looked deeply at the delicate woman in front of him, who was never more than twenty years old, and said with a moving chin: "Okay." โ
As if completely relieved, Li's eyes gradually drifted.
She didn't close her eyes after all, as if she was squinting and tired of sleeping.
The imperial doctor checked her wrist pulse in a panic, shook his head and said, "Your Majesty ......"
The little emperor stood up and hugged the seven catties in the arms of the palace maid.
After all, the emperor is not very skillful, and his arms are also hard, under the movement, the child is done, first humming and sobbing twice to vent the dissatisfaction of being woken up, when he saw the little emperor, he began to smile, the slightly slender big eyes were watery, and the milk voice was slurred: "Daddy, daddy!" โ
The little emperor's heart immediately softened into a puddle of water.
"You little guy, you have a big life, and it's a shame that your parents chose a dutiful nurse for you."
"Daddy, Daddy!" Qijin waved his little hand, and the small golden bell tied with the red rope on his wrist jingled crisply.
When the palace people saw the emperor like this, they clearly looked like a loving father who loved the child, and the child was clearly the emperor's! But they all bowed their heads and did not dare to say more.
"Send the Li family back to the Marquis of Jinning's mansion, tell Brother Sรนying what happened, and bury her, in addition, to comfort her family."
"Yes."
Jing Tong limped in and ordered someone to settle the Li family.
Seeing the same scene, the little emperor also remembered that he had just fallen off his horse, as if he had fallen on something soft. It turned out that this faithful servant was the pad of his flesh.
"Jingtong, you go and rest." Pointing at the imperial doctor: "You, go and heal him." โ
Jing Tong was flattered: "Your Majesty, the slave is fine, and the slave can serve the emperor!" โ
"Less wordy." The little emperor said domineeringly: "Why don't you hurry up, do you want to delay a few more days before you come to serve me?" โ
Jing Tong was extremely grateful in his heart and smeared honey. Bow your head and bow to you. jumped out with the help of the little chamberlain. The Imperial Physician followed.
The little emperor sat down on the kang with a bright yellow mattress laid near the window with seven catties, and said: "Go, thoroughly investigate the people in the imperial dining room, and the hands of those who brought the soup to it." The palace is my home, and someone dares to poison me, and I'm impatient! โ
Under the cold snort, the emperor's anger spread like a black mist, and the palace people were silent. They all remembered the palace people who were killed in the Lan Concubine Palace that day, as well as the Xu family's extermination of the seven clans, and the bloody atmosphere that could not be dispersed in Kyoto City.

When Li's corpse was sent back to the Huo family, Jiang Yu and Huo Shijiu were chatting with Zhao and Tang in the upper room, and Fang Cai did experience a change in the mansion, but Jiang Yu and Huo Shijiu took people to stop the development of the situation in front of the door, although Zhao and Huo Dazhuan, Tang and others did not see it with their own eyes, but they breathed the tense air, and they still felt uncomfortable panic in their hearts.
Huo Shijiu took the opportunity to discuss the matter of their family going to the south. Now Jiang Yan is also about to go out of confinement, and the situation is tense. Nor can they be told to stay.
Zhao and Huo Dazhuan were discussing when Yi would leave, and someone outside arrived at the porch in a panic. His voice trembled a little: "Master Hou! Someone from the palace sent the Li family back! โ
"Lee?"
Huo Dazhuan didn't react for a while, but Huo Nineteen's color changed, and Zeng stood up: "Bring it in!" โ
"Master Hou, this ...... It's not good, the body is now parked in the patio outside, and a father-in-law came to the palace, saying that he was ordered to send people back, and that there was an edict from the emperor to pass on. โ
Corpses!
Jiang Yan's face was pale, but she didn't want to frighten the two mothers, so she said, "Mother, let's all wait here, tell A-Ying to deal with it." โ
"Li, is it the Li who serves seven catties?"
"Well, it's her."
Zhao Shi was very shocked, and said in a trembling voice: "How can a good person suddenly disappear...... Those seven pounds ......"
"Seven pounds will be fine." Jiang Yu gently soothed.
Huo Nineteen had already walked quickly to the patio and saw the people from the palace.
"Master Hou, the emperor said that this Mama Li is loyal and went to protect the little prince. The emperor also said, please treat Mama Li's family kindly, this is Mama Li's wish before her death. โ
"What the hell is going on in the palace!"
"Back to the Hou Ye, the minions don't know." Even if the little chamberlain knew everything, he didn't dare to reveal the royal secrets outside at will, after all, in the palace, there was such a situation, and it was possible for the emperor to start a fire and move their heads.
But the person in front of him is also something he can't afford to provoke.
The people who served in the palace, who didn't know Huo Shijiu's status in the emperor's mind? If Huo Shijiu holds a grudge against anyone and says a bad word, the emperor will kill him for the sake of Huo Shijiu's mood.
After thinking about it, the little chamberlain smiled again: "The slave only knows that Mama Li was poisoned, and the emperor is in the palace at this time, the little prince is fine, and the emperor personally takes it with him." โ
"Thank you, father-in-law." Cao Yu took out a red plug that had been prepared long ago from his arms and gave it to the waiter.
The chamberlain saluted flatteredly: "Don't dare, don't dare." After a few more pleasantries, he left.
Huo Shijiu squatted on the ground, lifted the white cloth covering the corpse, glanced at it, closed his eyes, and covered the cloth again.
Before and after thinking about it, I already had an idea in my heart, and said quietly: "After all, I can't live with you......"
"Master Hou, don't be too sad, the Li family is loyal, you can take care of her family." Cao Yu persuaded.
Huo Jiujiu shook his head, "Now that I am also a father, if I am told to let go and abandon the child, I will also be sad." Li himself is also a man with sons and daughters...... After all, it was my incompetence that hurt her. She died on behalf of seven catties. Ichizen, I'll leave this matter to you. I really didn't have the shame to face her family. โ
Cao Yu felt sorry in his heart, and said with his head bowed: "Yes, I'll go in a while, Master Hou, it's not safe in the palace anymore, do you want to think of a way?" Someone can poison seven catties, then the emperor ......"
"Well, I'll enter the palace immediately and discuss it with the emperor." (To be continued......)
