Jing Tong's delicate face was a little red due to anxiety, but he still didn't say much, just shook his head to signal Huo Shijiu to silence, and then pointed to the place where he was standing now, and his eyes signaled him not to leave first.

Huo Shijiu understood what Jing Tong meant and nodded.

Jing Tong went back into the study and closed the door of the imperial study.

Huo Nineteen put on a cloak and stood in Jing Tong's position, he found that this position was chosen very coincidentally, even if the window sash of the imperial study was fully open, it was also a dead end of sight, unless the people in the house walked to the nearby window to lean out and look out, they couldn't see that there were people here, and for the outside, the vision of this place was also excellent, not only to see the road outside the main gate, but also to see the neat soldiers and guards outside the moon gate. But since the red vermilion lacquered pillars happened to be right in front of him, the people in those two places might not be able to see that there was still a person standing here.

Huo Shijiu secretly admired that Jing Tong was really a shrewd person, so he stood here and carefully kept quiet.

He knew that Jing Tong had something to tell him, and he was afraid that he would not believe it, so he wanted him to see it with his own eyes.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of broken porcelain in the room, followed by a violent roar: "Get out! Get lost! Useless minions! ”

"The emperor is angry." It was Jing Tong's voice of forgiveness.

Then came the little emperor's low, slightly hoarse voice after the voice change period, and roared hoarsely: "Bastard! I've slaughtered you! A bunch of idiots! I can't even serve you tea, what's the use of me asking you to be such a waste! Take my whip! ”

Then there was an unfamiliar voice, which sounded like a small chamberlain, and the voice was very delicate. trembling and said, "Ask the emperor to spare his life." The emperor spares his life! ”

Then there was the sound of whipping and the screams of the little chamberlain in unbearable pain.

The little emperor whipped every time. will roar and scold: "Kill you!" ”

His roar echoed in the spacious room of the Imperial Study, and it could be heard clearly from outside.

Huo Jiu couldn't even believe his ears.

Is such a grumpy little emperor still the aggrieved emperor who cried in front of him, and rationally suppressed his grievances and analyzed the situation with him?

Now he is like a mad lion, roaring loudly, as if to exude all the pent-up anger. As if he was venting his irrepressible feelings.

The little chamberlain who was beaten had no movement under a few whips. Immediately Jing Tong's persuasion voice: "Don't be angry, don't be angry for such things, don't be angry for such things, you better sit down and rest for a while." ”

The little emperor's voice was already a little tired, and he said, "Go, bring me that medicine." ”

"Your Majesty...... You, bear with me, that medicine is not a good thing, and the British are afraid that it is uneasy and kind. ”

"You're old now that you're running errands, and it's all up to me!"

"The emperor is angry, and the slave will go."

Huo Nineteen furrowed his eyebrows. With his hands clenched into fists, he still stood in front of the door and did not move. Listen to the movement in the house.

Not much. I heard that the little emperor seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, his voice was a little tired, but he was also lazy and hoarse, "Every time I take this medicine, my heart is comfortable, and my body seems to be better, Jing Tong, you go and tell Ye Jieyu to prepare." Also, let this useless thing get down. ”

"Yes."

Jing Tong responded, and after a short time, the door of the hall was pushed open, first two small chamberlains went in, and carried out an eleven or twelve-year-old little chamberlain who had been smoked and flesh open, and then Jing Tong came out sideways and closed the vermilion lacquer rhombic fan, and lowered his head and did not squint, as if there was no Huo Shijiu in that place.

As soon as he entered the palace, Jing Tong gave him a look, and he looked so eager, and then he discovered this unbelievable scene.

What exactly is the medicine given to the little emperor by the British public? If you don't eat, you will be angry, and if you eat, you will control your temper, and you will feel comfortable, and you will immediately want to spoil your concubine......

The little emperor is only fifteen, wouldn't he be hollowed out if there are too many things like this, not to mention that it is still under the effect of drugs.

Huo Jiujiu thought for a long time, and only one word "Wushi San" flashed in his mind.

This medicine was originally used to cure diseases, and later because of the effect of Wushisan to nourish the skin, some concubines in the harem also used it. However, because the medicine of Wushi powder is hot, there was a noble concubine in the harem of the previous dynasty who took Wushi powder and used cold wine, and died on the same day, so the emperor of the previous dynasty paid attention to it and ordered that this kind of "demonic" medicine should not be introduced into the palace again.

Unexpectedly, the British Duke actually got his hands on the forbidden medicine of the previous dynasty and gave it to the little emperor.

No wonder his way into the palace was so smooth, he didn't even encounter an ambush spies, it turned out that the British Duke had already made up his mind, and pushed the emperor to take this medicine, which would definitely make people confused after a long time, if this medicine was mixed with some addictive drugs...... In the future, the emperor is not under his control, and he has to do whatever he wants?

Huo Nineteen hated to kill the British Duke at this time! He actually dared to give the emperor this forbidden medicine!

Impulsively, Huo Jiuzai couldn't care so much, and directly pushed the door into the imperial study.

"...... so soon" The little emperor's clothes were half-open, and even if it was daytime, the weather in autumn was not as hot as in summer, but the little emperor took off his outer robe and only wore a middle coat, revealing his white chest. And Rong Chang, who was much fairer than before, had some surprise and embarrassment on his face, as if he didn't expect Huo Nineteen to come in at this time.

"Brother Ying, why are you back? But is there anything else? The little emperor pretended to be calm, and the little mime looked at Huo Nineteen.

Huo Nineteen didn't speak, and there was no trace of the little emperor's tantrum in the room at this time, but the little emperor's smile told Huo Nineteen that what he heard just now was not his hallucination, it was true.

"Your Majesty, what kind of medicine are you taking?"

"What medicine?" The little emperor pretended to be stupid.

Huo Jiujiu didn't answer, and strode forward to the black lacquered paulownia bookcase with a bright yellow tablecloth. He has an excellent memory, and the habit of licking blood on the tip of the knife over the years has made him more and more observant of his surroundings every time he goes.

When he entered the imperial study just now. There was no delicate wooden box of rosewood on the table. It must have been brought by Fang Caijingtong. It wasn't put away.

The little emperor saw Huo Nineteen striding towards the table. Immediately, he was in a hurry and hurried to block it.

But Huo Nineteen is tall and has long legs, but his movements are one step faster.

He picked up the wooden box and opened it, and there were purple-red pills inside, as well as two more.

When he got to smell it, Huo Shijiu's face changed greatly: "What is this!" ”

The little emperor frowned and was silent.

Huo Jiu was furious, grabbed the wooden box and raised his hand to fall.

The little emperor was in a hurry at this time and hurriedly stepped forward to snatch it. He was not as tall as Huo Nineteen, but with the strength after taking the medicine, he jumped up and grabbed the wooden box.

Huo Jiu refused to let go, and the little emperor refused to let go, so the two actually scuffled.

"Your Majesty, let it go!"

"I won't let go, Huo Ying, you don't want to die! How dare you do it with me! ”

"Even if the emperor kills Weichen, the minister must not watch the emperor fall into the quagmire!"

"It's not a quagmire, it's medicine!"

"This is clearly five stones! Even if it's medicine. It's poison if you use it wrong! Besides, does the emperor dare to take the medicine given by Cai Jing! Why don't you hurry up and stop the horse! ”

"You're nosy, I order you to let go!"

"Don't let go! Don't let it go! ”

As usual. Even if the little emperor beats him, Huo Nineteen will not have any complaints, but today is different, when he has experienced great sorrow and joy, after hearing the little emperor's tyranny, where can Huo Nineteen calm down, he just wants to break the corpse of the person who poisoned the little emperor so much.

No matter how mature and sophisticated the little emperor is, after all, he is only a child who has just turned fifteen years old, and he is at the age of rebellion, how can he resist the temptation of this medicine?

During the scuffle between the two, the pill box fell to the ground, and the two pills inside rolled out at once, Huo Shijiu got up angrily, trampled the two pills under his feet, and crushed them.

The little emperor was wearing a dirty bright yellow middle coat, with his white chest exposed, and he sat on the ground panting, glaring at Huo Nineteen angrily.

Huo Shijiu also gasped, and the words of reprimand came to his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.

Can he blame the emperor for not being tempted? He has seen all the things that the emperor has experienced over the years, and it hurts in his heart, even if he has a weak will, the bigger mistake lies in him, if it weren't for his incompetence, how could the British Duke take advantage of it!

wanted to open his mouth to persuade, but Fang opened his mouth, and the sound he made was already choked in his throat. As soon as the eye sockets are hot, the corners of the eyes become wet.

Huo Jiu was busy silencing and opened his eyes.

The little emperor was originally angry, but it can be seen that Huo Shijiu is a little weak-hearted, standing up, wanting to say something, but he felt that he couldn't pull his face to apologize to the courtiers, and the scene froze there.

"Your Majesty." Jing Tong entered the house, and when he saw the two of them like this, he already understood in his heart, and he didn't dare to say more, so he stood with his hands down.

Huo Shijiu took a deep breath, and didn't want to say more, right and wrong, he believed that the little emperor knew it in his heart, but he couldn't control his own behavior.

Today's medicine has been taken, and it is too late to do anything, the important thing is to go forward.

Huo Shijiu controlled his temper sensibly, and after saluting, he turned around and left the imperial study.

The little emperor and Jing Tong were silent for a while, and after a while, there were little attendants coming and going outside: "Your Majesty, Ye Jieyu is here."

Where is he still interested? At this moment, he was like a child who had done something bad and was discovered, thinking about how to get things done without losing his dignity, and the little emperor waved his hand impatiently: "Let her go!" ”

The emperor is angry again!

The attendants were afraid that they would become a punching bag under the whip of the little emperor, so they hurriedly retreated.

Huo Nineteen walked out of the courtyard where the imperial study was located, his face was calm, his eyes were deep, and he couldn't see any emotion at all, but he seemed to have a sense of not being angry and threatening, and the atmosphere at the moment was not quite right, and Jiao Zhongyi couldn't ask any questions in his heart.

However, Pei Hongfeng was a bystander, and his mind was not so heavy.

Now all she wanted was to go back and repair a book as soon as possible, so that she could deliver a message to her girl.

%

When Yang Xi received Pei Hongfeng's letter, he was having tea with Jiang Yu.

"Originally, I said in Kyoto that I was going to your mansion to disturb you, but today I came to your home in Jinzhou."

"Madame is so gracious, it's our honor to have you here." Yang Xi smiled and said, "My grandfather and grandmother just told me that you must entertain you well." ”

Because Jiang Yu came as Yang Xi's friend, no one in the Tang Mansion was surprised. On the one hand, it was a grand welcome. On the other hand, when I saw Jiang Yan, I was also sincerely afraid. For fear that if there is a mistake, it will be wrong, and the consequences of offending the wife of the "devil" are also very strict.

Tang Xiao was sipping melon seeds on the side and smiled clearly. It seems that his cousin is really interested in that Cao Gongzi, whether it is from a business point of view, or from the perspective of choosing a husband in the future, Huo Shijiu's wife is a good choice for making friends.

Others may not understand, but he knows Yang Xi too well. She is smart and kind, young and old. Thinking is active and steady, he likes to do things directly, he doesn't like to procrastinate, and what he is best at is analyzing the pros and cons. In her eyes, it's all about profit and loss.

Now it's like this, it's also because she sees the hope of "Ying".

"Girl." A little girl outside replied and presented a letter to Yang Xi with both hands.

When Yang Xi saw the words on the envelope, he didn't shy away from Jiang Wei, so he couldn't wait to open the letter and read it.

After reading it, his brow furrowed tightly.

"Mrs. Huo. It's a letter from Hongfeng. ”

As soon as Jiang Yu heard the news that it was from Kyoto, she came to the spirit. Leaning forward with concern, he asked, "How is Kyoto City?" ”

Yang Xi said succinctly: "Cao Moran was seriously injured, and the Marquis of Jinning commanded everyone to enter the palace to face the saint." The specific situation, because of guarding against others, Hongfeng did not explain. ”

Jiang Yan's heart suddenly rose to her throat.

What happened so big!

Cao Yu's handsome skills, such strong martial arts, can even be injured! And Huo Nineteen, just with soldiers and horses, real swords and real guns, he went to face the saint?

Jiang Yu hated very much at this time, why there was no phone in this era, she didn't follow him, Cao Yu was injured again, and only one Pei Hongfeng was left by Huo Shijiu's side, could she really protect his safety?

Huo Jiu was not a reckless person, he could do this, which could only prove that the scene at that time was even more chaotic than she expected.

Carefully calculated, even if this letter was sent immediately, it would have been at least seven or eight days since then.

If Huo Nineteen was really in danger, he might have ...... by this time The dust has settled.

Jiang Wei shook her head and forced herself not to think about it again.

Yang Xi is actually very worried about Cao Yu, but in the end, she is not Cao Yu's person now, and she can't even express her concern as directly as Jiang Yu.

Both sighed

Tang Xiao couldn't see that the two of them were listless, stood up and patted the melon seed skin on his jacket, and said, "If you want to know what's going on, won't you just go and see?" It's better than guessing here. ”

"Brother Xiao, don't talk nonsense!" Yang Xi reprimanded.

Jiang Yu stood up and sighed: "Tang Gongzi is right, if you want to know the situation, it is indeed the best choice to see it with your own eyes." It's just ......"

Although the home has now returned to normal, the burned Rong Dezhai has also found a master who specializes in civil engineering to redesign and renovate.

But in the end, she is still not at ease with such a big family, Huo Shijiu is going to do serious things, she is not in good health after being injured, she is not as confident that she can help him as before, and she can't drag him down. It was because of her that she could only endure and continue to stay here and guard the Huo family for him.

But in this way, Jiang Yu was stupidly waiting for news from Kyoto here, and she was really anxious.

"Miss Yang, someone has come to the Hou Mansion."

A little girl stood panting under the porch, looking like she had just come back from outside to deliver a message.

As soon as Jiang Yu heard that it was about the Hou Mansion, she said anxiously: "What's wrong with the Hou Mansion?" ”

"Back to Mrs. Hou of Jinning, the Hou Mansion is fine, it was just before the door came to pass the word, someone from your mansion came, please go back and see you quickly."

Jiang Wei bowed her head and said, "I'll leave first." ”

Yang Xi sent Jiang Yu to the door, and said worriedly: "If there is anything after I go back, please Mrs. must order someone to come to me." ”

"Don't worry." Jiang Yu said goodbye to Yang Xi, went out and got into the carriage, and went straight to the Marquis of Jinning's mansion.

Jiang Wei was very anxious, this way urged the coachman to drive the carriage fast, not long before coming to the door of the Hou Mansion, too late for the coachman to set up the small black lacquer wooden bench for the feet, Jiang Wei had already jumped off the car lightly, quickly into the courtyard, and when she reached no one, she simply flew straight to the front hall where she was now serving guests as she had recently practiced her body and her feet.

As soon as she arrived at the door, Jiang Yu heard the hearty laughter of Huo Dazhuan and the visitors.

It's Jiao Zhongyi!

Jiang Yu entered the door in surprise.

"General Jiao?"

"Madame is well." Jiao Zhongyi got up and saluted Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu returned the salute and hurriedly asked, "Why is General Zijiao here?" The matter has been settled in Kyoto? ”

"Yes." said that Jiao Zhongyi exclaimed, "Master Hou really did things with a single knife and was amazingly efficient, and now the emperor is unharmed, and his actions that day were very smooth." Hou Ye said that in the future, I want to help the emperor, Jinzhou will never be able to go back, so I will take someone back to ask the old lady what he means, it is best to leave within three days, and invite the whole family to go to Kyoto City. ”

Huo Dazhuan frowned tightly when he heard this, and said, "The limelight in Kyoto City is tight now, and I don't know what the situation is. If those people are not good for A-Ying, won't we become a burden? It's just a good girl with strong martial arts. Like me and her mother are a burden. ”

Jiao Zhongyi shook his head again and again: "What did the old lady say, it is because you want to reassure the Hou Ye that you should prepare to go back to Kyoto." Think about it, if it's so far away, Hou Ye can't see it if he wants to, if it's under his nose, he has a number in his heart. Besides, you can rest assured that the Hou Ye saw the emperor, and the emperor still trusted the Hou Ye as before, and specially instructed me to protect the Hou Ye and his family. If I let you and the masters of your mansion make a difference of a few stars, it will be a dereliction of duty, and you will be killed. ”

Huo Dazhuan was silent.

Jiang Yu said: "In this case, according to what General Jiao said, we will return to Beijing." (To be continued......)

PS: It is recommended not to sweep the snow in "The Return of the Daughter", whose mother died early, she and her brother were killed one after another, and the Han family was shrouded in a huge conspiracy. When Han Jiangxue was reborn and returned, she was destined to have a lifetime of glory!
