Hongli frowned and said, "E-Niang is saying that the second brother is quietly meeting with Xu Guiren?" ”

"Second Elder Brother is not a fool, he knows very well that it is a big sin to see Xu Guiren in private, so he will definitely try his best to avoid everyone's eyes and ears."

"Otherwise, Erchen will send more people to Hui'an Temple and defend it, so that no matter how cunning the second brother is, he will not want to avoid everyone." As soon as Hongli's voice fell, he heard Ling Ruo say: "Hongshi is more cunning than you think, once you find that you have no chance, you will definitely retreat and will not break through." ”

Hearing this, Hongli said a little anxiously: "Then what should I do, the trap that you and your aunt have put so much effort to lay has become useless?" ”

"It's not useless." Ling Ruo stroked the edge of the table and said, "Do you know who is among the Ouchi guards sent for the second time?" ”

Hongli was just about to say that he didn't know what to do, but suddenly found Ling Ruo's smile on his lips, and his mind turned quickly, "Could it be that Liu Hu is also among them?" ”

Ling Ruo nodded and said: "Yes, when your Emperor Ama was going to send the Ouchi guards over, the palace happened to be there, so he recommended Liu Hu to him, with him, this month's Hui'an Temple will definitely not be a vain." ”

Things are just as Ling Ruo expected, for most of the month, Liu Hu has been arranged by the Xu family to guard outside the hospital, at first he didn't feel it, but after a long time, he faintly felt that something was wrong, and before he came, he had to be told by Concubine Xi to pay more attention to Xu Guiren.

That night, while making his vigil, he said to the other guards, "You are here to watch, and I will go in and see." ”

One of them kindly reminded: "Leader, Xu Guiren has confessed, we are not allowed to enter the courtyard after nightfall, if Xu Guiren knows the truth, I am afraid that we will be unhappy." ”

"I'm just going around the courtyard, where will Xu Guiren find out. Besides, we are here to protect Xu Guiren by the emperor's order, if something happens to Xu Guiren because of our unfavorable guards, who can afford it? No one dared to say anything about this sentence, and no one objected to Liu Hu's entry.

After entering the courtyard, Liu Hu quietly walked through the bluestone paved ground and came to the outside of the house without a trace of light. As he approached, he faintly heard talking, but after putting his ear to the door, he couldn't hear anything.

Just as he was about to get closer, the door suddenly opened, and Xu walked out of it, and saw Liu Hu standing there against the door, and said with a strange expression: "Leader Liu, why are you here, didn't I order you to go down and let you all go to the courtyard to guard?" It scared the hell out of me. ”

was hit by the Xu family, even Liu Hu didn't know how to explain for a while, and only after a while did he sneer: "If you go back to the nobles, your subordinates are afraid that someone will take advantage of the fact that your subordinates and others are not paying attention and break into the courtyard, which will be unfavorable to the nobles, so come in and take a look, disturb the nobles, it's really damned!" While he was talking, he looked quietly into the house, and by the moonlight, he did not find anything unusual in the room, nor did he find anyone, it seems that he had misheard just now.

"With Leader Liu and so many internal guards coming, Hui'an Temple can be said to be impregnable, which one can break in without knowing it." Saying this, Xu said again: "But being so broken by Leader Liu, I don't have to sleep this night." ”

Liu lowered his head and said: "The subordinates are also worried about the safety of the nobles, and they hope that the nobles will forgive their sins." ”

Xu Shi said without hesitation: "Okay, you can step down." ”

"Huh!" Liu Hu retreated as he said, and Xu also closed the door firmly after he left, and at the same time, a figure emerged from behind the door.

It wasn't until the door was closed that Xu Fang let out a sigh of relief, holding "plop" and "plop" and whispering on his chest: "It's so dangerous, I was almost discovered." ”

Hongshi said with a gloomy face: "Is this guard's surname Liu?" ”

"Yes, his name is Liu Hu, and he is the leader of these guards, but he was sent to protect me later."

Xu's words made Hongshi squint his eyes slightly, and said coldly: "Liu Hu, Concubine Xi really used you as bait to lure me into the bait, but I found a shadow flashing outside in time just now, otherwise it would be a big trouble for Liu Hu to find out." ”

"What bait?" The Xu family didn't know anything about this matter, and after knowing the secret battle between the two factions of Concubine Lu Daoxi and the queen, Hua said with a gloomy face: "Then what now, you appeared here, didn't you take advantage of their hearts and let them have an excuse to deal with you?" ”

"If you want to deal with me, you have to see if they have the real ability." Hongshi said coldly and then said: "But this Liu Hu has already doubted that you sent them outside the hospital, and I am afraid that I will not be able to come over again in the future." ”

"I know it." Although Xu was very reluctant in his heart, it was about Hongshi's life, even if he was reluctant, he could only be willing, "There is only one thing I don't understand, why did Concubine Xi think of using me?" I have nothing to do with you. ”

Hongshi was silent for a while, and finally did not tell the truth, but said: "Maybe it's because they know that I have seen you in Yikun Palace and have a good impression of you, so they will think of using you." Without waiting for Xu to ask again, he said: "Okay, while Liu Hu is not here now, I will leave, and you and I will meet again, probably in the palace." ”

"Hmm." Xu nodded gloomily, silently buttoned the untied button for Hongshi, these days of lingering, made her love for Hongshi even more, although she knew that sooner or later there would be separation between them, but when it came to this moment, she suddenly couldn't help but feel sad.

Hiroshi saw her loss and sadness, and put a deep kiss on her forehead, "I will definitely try my best to see you, don't be sad!" ”

Faced with his words, Xu Shi said nervously: "Don't!" Don't come, if the emperor or Concubine Xi finds out, you will die, I can be a husband and wife with you for a few days, I am already very satisfied, I just look forward to the next life, you and I are no longer the identity of the elder brother and the noble. ”

Hongshi hugged her and said softly: "In the next life, we will definitely be together in the open, and in this life, I will not give up on you, wait for me, one day, we will be together again." ”

Xu Shi forced himself to break free from Hongshi's arms, and said with deep reluctance and tears: "You go quickly." ”

"Hmm." After stroking Xu's cheek again, Hongshi climbed over the courtyard wall and left quietly.

At this time, Liu Hu was talking to a few guards outside, and his mind kept thinking about the situation just now, could it be that he was really too careful? What could he do if he always felt that something was wrong?

"Chief, what are you thinking?" One of the guards asked, "By the way, there was nothing going on in the courtyard just now, right?" ”

"It's okay, Xu Guiren is fine, you continue to guard it well." Liu Hu said casually, but when he turned around, he was like being struck by lightning and stiffened.
