As soon as she finished speaking, Long Tianyi came to her side and said everything he wanted to eat.

He said everything he could say about Dongpo elbows, three-cup chickens, salted ducks, lion heads, etc.

These are all big dishes, Zhao Lihua smacked her tongue when she heard it: "Have you eaten so much?" ”

"As long as you invite, I can eat." Long Tianyi said disapprerovingly.

Here the two of them are talking and laughing out of the palace.

Inside the Tai Chi Palace.

The emperor looked at Gonggong Sun, who had just sent Zhao Lihua out, and asked in surprise when he came back so quickly.

"Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince is waiting for Miss Zhao outside the palace, and the old slave didn't follow." Grandpa Sun replied respectfully.

"This old seven cares so much about this Miss Zhao? I just invited her to come to the palace, and he actually followed the palace. ”

He knew that Zhao Lihua had a good relationship with his third son and seventh son, but he didn't know that it could be so good.

"What do you think of Miss Zhao?" The emperor then went to justice.

Grandpa Sun thought for a while: "Miss Zhao is knowledgeable and courteous, has a degree of advance and retreat, and is calm and introverted. ”

"Oh?" The emperor looked at Gonggong Sun in surprise, "You have been with me for so many years, and it is the first time I have seen you have such a high opinion of a woman!" ”

"Mo no, what benefit did you get from her?" The Emperor's surprised eyes had turned suspicious.

Otherwise, he really couldn't think of why the Sun Gong Guild had such a high opinion of Zhao Lihua, who met for the first time.

It is common for the master to reward his subordinates, and there is no need to pursue it.

But if you do things with benefits, the nature is different.

But the emperor thought about it in a blink of an eye, and it was not right, Grandpa Sun had been by his side for many years, loyal to him, and he knew Grandpa Sun quite well.

Grandpa Sun is not such a short-sighted person who can be bought by a little woman.

The emperor couldn't figure it out, so he knew that I was staring at Gonggong Sun to see how he answered.

How else to say that a companion is like a tiger?

Seeing that the emperor was fine one moment, and the next moment he was full of suspicion, he knelt on the ground and said bitterly: "Your Majesty Mingjian, the old slave has been by Your Majesty's side for so many years, doesn't Your Majesty know the old slave?" The old slave is loyal to His Majesty. ”

Seeing him like this, the emperor waved his hand amusedly and said, "Okay, okay, you old minion, I know, but I just ask casually." You are so afraid to do something, get up and speak. ”

Gonggong Sun got up tremblingly and said, "Your Majesty, the slave just feels that Miss Zhao is a good person, and the slave doesn't know what it is." ”

Grandpa Sun said that he went to pick up Zhao Lihua until he entered the palace.

In the past, he went to bring people into the palace at the request of the emperor, and some of them were triumphant, and some were trembling.

But no matter which one it is, they will always stuff him with money along the way, ask him about the emperor's preferences, or ask him what the emperor is looking for them for.

Those people asked for him, and they were extremely respectful to him, but he could see a trace of contempt and disdain in their eyes every time.

This kind of look is too familiar to him, these people just look down on him as just a eunuch, a minion.

But this time he went to pick up Zhao Lihua into the palace, but she was always calm, neither humble nor arrogant, she followed him quietly all the way, and her eyes did not wander around.

The main thing is that when she salutes and talks to him, she looks at him like anyone else, and does not despise him because he is a eunuch.

This made Grandpa Sun feel respected for the first time.

That's why Grandpa Sun has such a high opinion of Zhao Lihua.

Of course, he did not tell the emperor about this last point.

As the king of a country, the emperor was born high, how can he understand the sadness of a person like him?

The emperor listened to what he said, sat on the dragon chair and nodded lightly and did not speak again.

Prime Minister's Office.

After Zhao Lihua and Long Tianyi finished eating, as soon as they entered the mansion, a maidservant girl at the door stepped forward to invite her to Ronghua Courtyard.

This maid is from the old lady's yard, Zhao Lihua knows her, look at her like this, she should be waiting for her here.

"But what happened to Grandmother?" Zhao Lihua followed behind the maid and asked casually.

"Miss Hui, the old lady is very good, but the old lady heard that you were summoned by the emperor, so she ordered the slave and maid to wait for you here, so that you can go over and tell her about meeting the emperor as soon as you come back."

Zhao Lihua nodded understandingly, this is indeed something that the old lady can do.

After she went to the palace to see the Queen Mother and came back, didn't the old lady also send someone here to wait for her to come back and let her go to Ronghua Courtyard!

When she arrived at Ronghua Courtyard, the maidservant did not take her directly into the old lady's house as usual, but took her to a slightly remote room.

Zhao Lihua frowned slightly, and was about to ask, but the maid saluted and said: "The old lady is sick for the past few days, and the yard is being cleaned, only here is quiet, please wait for a while, and the slave will immediately go and ask the old lady to come over." ”

Hearing her say this, Zhao Lihua didn't think much about it, the old lady has always loved to work, and now it is possible to toss like this, so she nodded and agreed.

The servant girl saluted, then turned and withdrew, and closed the door with her hand.

The three of them waited for a while, but no one came.

Zhao Lihua was okay, thinking that the old lady liked to put on a shelf and wanted her to wait for a while, so she deliberately came slowly.

Ji Xiang Ruyi is not as calm and relaxed as her.

"Miss, is it taking so long to invite the old lady over?" Now the auspicious behind her whispered.

Ruyi also echoed: "Yes, miss, even if the old lady comes slowly, this tea and snack should always be served, right?" The young lady has been sitting here for so long, and no one has come to ask. ”

"That's it, the old lady is still there every day to talk about the rules, but the people in her yard don't understand the rules the most."

Listening to the two of them complaining one by one, Zhao Lihua couldn't help but purse her lips and smile, and asked, "Auspicious Ruyi, do you know what the rules are used for?" ”

Ji Xiang Ruyi heard his young lady's question, and he didn't react a little.

After half a ring, the two shook their heads: "I don't know." ”

They never thought about it, anyway, there have always been rules, and if you don't follow the rules, you will be punished, and they are used to obeying them.

Zhao Lihua looked at the two of them in a daze, shook her head helplessly, and said: "The rules are used to restrain others, not to be obeyed by yourself." ”

The implication is that the reason why the old lady attaches so much importance to the rules is nothing more than to find an excuse to discipline others.

Ji Xiang Ruyi still didn't understand it when he heard it, but they didn't understand it, they didn't plan to dwell on it here.

"Miss, the slave is going to find someone to bring some tea." Ruyi said as he walked towards the door.

But when she was about to open the door, the door wouldn't open.

After Ruyi tried it a few times, she was a little anxious: "Miss, the door seems to have been locked from the outside." ”

When Ji Xiang heard this, he immediately ran forward to help. Zhao Lihua also got up from the chair and followed behind.

Jixiang also tried a few times, "Really, miss, the door is locked and can't be opened." ”

"What should I do? Miss, what the hell is going on? Why did the old lady keep the young lady here? Ruyi was not calm, and stood aside and began to wipe away tears.

Ruyi is more auspicious and introverted, but the tears are extremely low, and tears are shed at every turn.

"Don't worry, the three of us slam the door hard together and rush out." Zhao Lihua was not very anxious at the moment, and Qiu Dao and Qiu Shuang were guarding around her.

If they found out that she was in danger, they would have come to her rescue quickly.

Just as they slammed the door hard, a sense of powerlessness suddenly rose throughout their bodies.

The three of them sat down on the ground limp together, and their eyes became more and more sleepy, more and more sleepy, and finally fell to the ground in a daze.

Before Zhao Lihua fell to the ground, she didn't figure out how and when she was hit.

Her current medical skills are not top-notch.

But with her hard work over the years, her medical skills are among the best in ancient times.

Unexpectedly, he fell silently today.

The moment she closed her eyes, she could only pin her hopes on Autumn Frost and Autumn Knife.

But she didn't know.

At this time, Autumn Frost and Autumn Knife are also facing a dilemma.

They were besieged by dozens of killers at the same time.

The two knew that Zhao Lihua must be in danger, and these people came to drag them and prevent them from saving Zhao Lihua.

This time, the killers were obviously much more advanced than the group of cultivators in the Lingyin Temple last time.

The two fought bloodily, and after fighting a bloody way, they rushed to the place where Zhao Lihua was.

only to find that there was already a raging fire there.

The two of them glanced at each other.

"Qiushuang, you stay here, I'll go in." With that, Autumn Dao was about to rush in.

Qiushuang followed: "No, I'm going to go in together, if something happens to Miss, how can I live alone, and... If you..." She didn't finish the rest of the story.

But from her red cheeks and tear-glistening eyes, it can be seen that she has a deep love for Autumn Knife.

Qiu Dao opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Qiu Shuang's raised hand: "Let's go, let's go in together, there is no time to waste." Seeing that she was so resolute, Qiu Dao didn't say anything more, and pulled her into the fire together.

Simply, as soon as they rushed in, they saw Zhao Lihua and Ji Xiang Ruyi who fell to the ground.

Qiushuang hurriedly stepped forward and pushed her and shouted, "Miss, Miss." ”

But Zhao Lihua's body was soft and didn't react.

Seeing this, Qiu Dao immediately said: "Qiu Shuang, you carry Miss on your back, I will rush out together with auspicious wishes." ”

"Okay." Qiushuang didn't hesitate, put Zhao Lihua on her shoulders and rushed out.

Autumn Dao also rushed out after her with one in both hands.

After Qiushuang rushed out with Zhao Lihua on her back, she put her on the ground, and went to the fire, waiting for Qiudao to come out.

Seeing that Akira immediately rushed out of the fire, the beams on the house fell down due to the fire and smashed into Akira.
