was said by Huo Shijiu, and the little emperor also felt a little worried.

When he publicized this matter, he didn't think about whether the publicity meeting reached Lu Tianming, nor did he think about the consequences of publicizing the meeting for him.

"What would happen if Lu Tianming got the news first?" The little emperor's eyes flashed when he looked at Huo Shijiu, like a child who was afraid of being scolded by his parents.

Huo Shijiu stroked his forehead.

Doesn't the little emperor really understand? He didn't believe it. When he asked this, he just wanted him to comfort him.

However, after solving the British duke's problem, he will not stay with the little emperor forever, and it is impossible to continue to shelter him, but he still has to solve everything himself. The way forward is that he must walk alone, and he can't feel sorry for him and use his brain.

Huo Shijiu said patiently: "Once Lu Tianming gets the news that the British Duke was captured first, he has done so many things that are not conducive to the country when he accompanied the British Prince, he will definitely be weak-hearted, and he will also worry about what the emperor will do with him." He is not one of those ordinary staff, but a person who holds the power of 100,000 Gyeonggi guards, what should he do if he has the mind to start an incident at breakfast? ”

"He dares!" The little emperor said coldly: "I am rich all over the world, will I be afraid that he will not succeed?" ”

"Your Majesty, Britain has been in power for a long time, and it didn't rise in a day or two, his henchmen are all over the government and the opposition, and the relationship is intertwined, how can it be uprooted casually? If we win Lu Tianming, our chances of winning will be two more points, otherwise even if we can get rid of him in the future, I am afraid that it will shake the country's foundation. ”

The little emperor was silent when he heard this. After a long time, he said, "In this way, it seems that I really did something wrong. ”

The emperor does things, even if he is wrong, he cannot say that he is wrong. If Huo Nineteen is one of those people who is used to pleasing the emperor. Now be Fang Cong, be sensitive, don't poke the little emperor's sore spots.

However, Huo Nineteen was in front of the emperor. has never been a lie: "Your Majesty." You're right, just a little impulsive. Didn't the former minister say that? Do things with consequences in mind. If you feel that if you do something, it will be detrimental to the whole, then you should consider whether you want to choose immediate benefits or long-term interests. ”

The little emperor bowed his head and remained silent.

Huo Jiujiu just said, but he felt that he was bored with words. The little emperor already has a series of his own ideas, and he no longer needs to point fingers, and if he does too much, it will not only cause people to be resentful. There is also a suspicion that he will continue to be a puppet.

has been a puppet all these years, and the little emperor is very taboo about this kind of thing. If he wasn't taboo, he wouldn't be like that to the Huo family, knowing that he didn't have the intention of getting rid of future troubles forever at that time?

Huo Jiujiu didn't want to say more.

He couldn't say anything flattering, and he couldn't say that he did a good job with a clear conscience, Huo Shijiu could only be silent.

The little emperor did trust and rely on Huo Shijiu, but when he was denied the practice, he was ashamed and annoyed, so he had no interest in talking, and only said: "Brother Ying is also tired for a day." It's better to go back and rest, there are more things to depend on you in the future. ”

Jing Tong and Xiao Lu, who were standing on the side, were surprised. Find the usual. The little emperor will stay for Huo Nineteen to eat.

"The emperor is also resting." Huo made a big salute, and instructed Jing Tong not to forget to serve the emperor to take medicine at night, and left the imperial study.

As soon as Huo Shijiu left, Jing Tong lowered his voice and said in a soft tone: "Your Majesty, you just haven't left the Marquis of Jinning to finish your meal, and the Hou Ye will not like it." ”

"Huh?" The little emperor raised his eyebrows, "What do you say?" ”

"In the past, if the emperor left the marquis to talk until this hour, most of them would have left food, but now if he doesn't stay once, it will inevitably make people think more."

The little emperor was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about Jing Tong's words, he felt that it made sense. It is true that you treat people 10,000 times well in this world, and occasionally one bad one will wipe out all the benefits of the past.

"Brother Ying is not such a calculating person, right?"

Jing Tong listened to the little emperor's words, and only smiled and did not speak.

The little emperor was irritable and threw away the pillow, it was easy to deal with the matter, and then there were many things to do, and he didn't want to bother with such things.

When Huo Shijiu returned to the mansion, it was already dark, and the key had fallen on the second door, but Jiang Yu had always arranged for the jade bridge to be guarded by the side, and it was good to carry a lantern for Huo Shijiu in the dark night.

"Is it okay for Madame to rest today?"

"Madame is resting well, just now the master and the young master of the in-laws came and talked for a while."

"Do you like it, ma'am?"

Yuqiao looked back at Huo Shijiu, and there was no envy for Jiang Wei in his heart, and he smiled coquettishly: "Back to the Hou Ye, Mrs. likes it today." ”

Huo Nineteen nodded.

The little emperor was anxious about what they had envisioned, and publicized the affairs of the British public, but instead made his previous notoriety clear. But what he cares about is not reputation, but Lu Tianming.

As soon as he thought of this, Huo Jiu's brows furrowed.

Jiang Yu was reclining on the stepping bed by the window at this time, and when she heard the intricate footsteps getting closer and closer, she got up and ordered: "Master Hou is back, go prepare dinner." ”

"Yes." Listening to the rain and going out with a smile, he walked opposite Huo Shijiu in front of the door, hurriedly saluted, and then lifted the door curtain for Huo Shijiu.

Huo Jiuxiao had already heard the movement just now, and said with a smile: "I'm not busy, I'm not hungry yet." ”

He said he wasn't hungry, but he didn't say he had eaten.

Jiang Yu looked at the faint lines between Huo Shijiu's eyebrows, and knew that something unpleasant must have happened in the palace just now, so she didn't ask much, so she smiled and said, "I'm a little hungry, why don't you accompany me to eat something?" ”

"Isn't it useful to have dinner? But it's uncomfortable? Huo Nineteen took a few steps to Jiang Yu and took her into the house, "Is it too tired in Dai's house and has a fetal gas?" Has Dr. Zhou seen it? ”

"I'm fine, don't be nervous." Jiang Yu took his hand and sat down, and glanced at Luo Rui on the side.

Luo Rui immediately decided to prepare water and a handkerchief to serve Huo Shijiu to wash.

"I had a little bit of dinner, I was full, but now I'm hungry again. As you know, I'm eating for two people now, so I'm going to have to eat more. ”

"Of course that's good." Huo Shijiu raised his head and wiped his face, feeling much better after washing his face: "I'm afraid that you won't eat." ”

The maid came in with a food box, and the delicately formatted side dishes were placed all over the table, the delicate xiaolongbao tasted fragrant, and the japonica rice porridge was mixed with red beans to boil fragrantly. Jiang Wei ate a bowl of porridge on the side, forcing Huo Shijiu to eat a drawer of xiaolongbao.

After rinsing his mouth and wiping his hands, Huo Shijiu said, "My father-in-law heard about it today?" ”

"Hmm. Asked me what was going on. It was so vivid that even I beat up the old thing of the British duke as if I had seen it with my own eyes. ”

"That's all ordered by the emperor...... Let's not talk about it. Huo Jiu smiled and said: "Anyway, this is the case, the rest depends on the emperor." ”

"Can you really throw your hands away?"

Huo Nineteenth Da smoothed Jiang Yan's long hair hanging down on her shoulders, and smiled bitterly, "Actually, I hope that there is room to display my ambitions, the British Duke is now imprisoned, there are still many things that need to be done in the future, the country is in ruins, and there are too many things I can do." It's just that...... In the face of the emperor, I really can't be calm. It turns out that I'm just an ordinary cautious person. ”

"You're not careful." Jiang Wei leaned on Huo Shijiu's shoulders, put her arms around his waist, and pushed him down: "If you can still treat the emperor like before under such circumstances, I will find it difficult to accept." If it were me, I am afraid that I would have left Kyoto long ago, and I would no longer care about the dispute between the emperor and the British duke, and who would be the lord of the world have nothing to do with me? But you did it. In this way, you have done your duty. ”

Huo Nineteen said knowingly: "So from now on, I don't have to pay much attention to it." ”

"Hmm. You can do everything, haven't you? ”

"Yes, indeed." Huo Jiujiu sighed, turned over and hugged Jiang Yu in his arms: "I have indeed done everything I can." After a few days, seeing that the emperor has completely resolved the matter and the situation has stabilized, I will discuss the matter with the emperor. When the time comes, we can go to Jiangnan to find my father and mother. ”

Jiang Yu nodded again and again, and when she thought of the easy days to come, she couldn't help but smile on her lips.

Jiang Yu and Huo Shijiu slept on the most peaceful night in recent times.

When they got up the next day, while the two were having dinner, they heard Sixi whisper back under the corridor: "...... Yesterday, there were heavy guards outside the mansion, because now the trial of the three divisions has not yet begun, and the evidence of the British princess's crime is being collected, and the female relatives of the family have not moved, but they have restricted their movements and are detained in the mansion. Who knows, the stables in their house caught fire last night. ”

Jiang Wei raised her eyebrows, took a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth, and said, "What time is it?" ”

"It was about the third watch, although the people from the Water Dragon Bureau arrived soon and wiped out all the lives, but the old and weak women and children in that house were still frightened. The British duchess is also old, and she is in a hurry, and now she is bedridden. ”

Jiang Yu was silent.

She felt that the British public was guilty, and his family was a little innocent, after all, it was not a heinous crime for the old and weak women and children to listen to the British public's orders to do things on weekdays.

But since they have received the wealth of the time when the British are known, then the loneliness when they are lonely should also bear it, which is what they should bear as a family member.

"Master Hou." The little girl in emerald green clothes under the corridor saluted and said, "There are guests outside, Gongzi Cao invites you to go to the front after breakfast." ”

Huo Jiujiu and Jiang Yu glanced at each other, rinsed their mouths, and said as they got up, "Girl, guess who it will be?" ”

Jiang Wei raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "I don't guess, no matter who it is, you should only deal with everything, I want to go see the children now." ”

Huo Jiu smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm going out, and I'm going to order someone to pick you up and go with the child." ”

Jiang Yu was stunned, glanced at him and said, "It seems that you can pinch it, or do you know something?" ”

"I didn't think about anything, I just thought that enough of the excitement was enough, and it was time for them to go." (To be continued......)
