On the 22nd of the lunar month, Zhu Gaoxu learned from Tanma's report that the official army had reached the north of Hengzhou by land and water, less than 100 miles away from the "ferry" of the Han Wangjun!

This is very important! Once successful, it will not only completely destroy the confidence of the officers and troops, but will also completely lay the foundation for the overall victory of the "criminal army."

Therefore, Zhu Gaoxu originally planned to personally take the banner of the King of Han to escort the army this morning and rush to the ferry port of Dongzhou Island in the south; The scene of forcibly crossing the Xiangjiang River was done sufficiently to cooperate with Zhang Fu as much as possible.

However, today, the brigade of the Han Wangfu rushed to Hengzhou, and he changed his decision. After meeting with the officials and family members of the Han Palace, he will lead the army to set off...... Although Zhu Gaoxu is very concerned about the movements of the officials and soldiers, he really can't help with this matter, at most he is just making a show; At this point, he is no longer the most important person in the incident......

Zhu Gaoxu met with the officials of the Han Dynasty in the middle hall, and then retreated to the study and summoned "Mr. Li" and Qian Xun to talk. roughly talked about the recent persuasion of Zhang Fu, and then left the first courtyard and went to the inner house to see his family.

Guo Wei took Zhan Yan, as well as Yao Ji and Du Qianrui to the Moon Cave Gate, and bowed one after another. Zhan Yan seemed to have been taught, and at this time, he also kept his little fist and said, "The son of the minister to meet his father." ”

Zhan Yan is over four years old, and he can be called six years old in terms of imaginary age. Zhu Gaoxu thought about such a young child, and didn't care whether he learned to write or not, so he asked casually: "Is the yellow dog that your father gave you still alive?" ”

Zhan Yan nodded and said, "Rhubarb has grown up, and the yellow dog (eunuch) is watching." ”

Zhu Gaoxu touched his head, praised him again, and called his family members to sit in the house.

A few people went to one of the living rooms inside and took their seats. Zhu Gaoxu and Guo Wei sat on either side of a table in the north, and there was also a coffee table and two chairs in the east. Yao Ji and Du Qianrui pushed and gave in, and finally Yao Ji pressed Du Qianrui to the north.

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at them from time to time, and at first thought that Yao Ji was performing humility and courtesy in front of him; But it soon dawned on him that this was not the case.

The slaves and maidservants served tea and withdrew. But there are three wives and concubines in the house, as well as Zhan Yan, so Guo Wei and the others speak very restrainedly, paying attention to maintaining etiquette; There is no heartfelt statement.

Zhu Gaoxu also paid a little attention to his words, and asked for warmth.

When he was talking to Guo Wei, he suddenly saw from the afterglow that Yao Ji gently put a hand on his chest. Yao Ji was wearing a light cyan skirt embroidered with purple and red, the clothes of the Ming Dynasty would not stick to the body, a little loose and elegant, and people wore thick clothes in winter; So even if she is a woman with a very plump body, she usually can't see any clues. But Yao Ji's hand gently stroked the material, and the proud silhouette was very obviously exaggerated.

Zhu Gaoxu looked at her soft gestures, almost unprepared, and his body immediately appeared abnormal.

At this time, Yao Ji stared at Zhu Gaoxu with watery eyes, and silently bit Zhu Hong's lips lightly with her snow-white teeth. At this time, Guo Wei, who was opposite Zhu Gaoxu, was looking at him, with his face turned away from Yao Ji; And Du Qianrui was also listening to the superior's words, because she was sitting close to the top, her face was not facing Yao Ji below.

The location was really wonderful, and at this time, only Zhu Gaoxu saw Yao Ji's movements.

Zhu Gaoxu suddenly felt that charcoal should not be burned in this room, it was simply stuffy. His mood was also impetuous, and he looked a little impatient.

His abnormal demeanor seemed to have been noticed by Guo Wei. Guo Wei subconsciously turned her head to take a look, but at this time, Yao Ji was sitting upright on the chair, looking dignified and reserved, listening very carefully.

Guo Wei immediately turned around and said: "The common people are male farmers and women weaving, and the concubines can't help the prince, and it is also Sister Yao's idea to take the palace ladies in the palace to sew shoes." ”

Zhu Gaoxu felt a little uneasy, and pretended to smile and said: "Princess Xianshu, the family style of our Han Mansion is really like that." ”

Guo Wei said: "The prince is the clan of the Prince of the Ming Dynasty, the etiquette is ahead of the world, and the concubine does not dare to ......."

And at this time, Yao Ji was even more excessive, her hands were very gentle before, but this time her movements were with strength. Zhu Gaoxu's mind appeared with various images that were turbulent and heavy; He was so impetuous that he was not interested in anything around him.

His Adam's apple squirmed, and he was very careful not to make his swallowing action too obvious.

In fact, what made Zhu Gaoxu reverie the most was not her movements, but the shallow flush on Yao Ji's face at this time. That shy and slightly embarrassed demeanor seemed to pour out her excitement and excitement.

Zhu Gaoxu asked himself that he was still a very calm person, and the "acting skills" he learned from the former emperor Zhu Di were also qualified. But at this time, he couldn't completely hide it, and couldn't help but glance at Yao Ji from time to time.

Guo Wei turned her head again! Even Du Qianrui followed Guo Wei's movements and turned her head to look at Yao Ji.

I don't know how Yao Ji predicted Guo Wei's actions, Yao Ji had already picked up the cup on the coffee table a moment in advance, gently covered her face with her sleeve, and took a sip of tea.

Rao is like this, Zhu Gaoxu also felt that Guo Wei had noticed the abnormality, he was in a hurry, and blurted out: "Is Yao Ji a little uncomfortable?" ”

Guo Wei suddenly said: "The prince is really meticulous. Sister Yao is unwell, she can't ride the carriage for a long time. ”

Zhu Gaoxu nodded solemnly and said, "I see." Yao Ji, this king will find you a Lang Zhong to check the pulse? ”

Yao Ji said softly: "Thank you for your concern, the concubine is fine, just rest for a while." ”

When Zhu Gaoxu heard the delicate voice, he also felt that it was a temptation.

Yao Ji said again: "The prince is going out today, when will he come back?" The concubine has one thing and wants to tell the prince......"

When Zhu Gaoxu heard this, he immediately replied: "Don't be in a hurry for a while, wait a minute, you will come to the study to see this king." ”

Yao Ji owes herself: "The concubine is grateful to the prince." ”

Zhu Gaoxu originally missed Guo Wei and Du Qianrui very much, and it was not that he didn't pay attention to family affection, and he naturally felt warm when he reunited after a long absence. But only for a moment, a fire in his body had already come to his head, and he had no other thoughts for the time being, only a stomach full of lewd and evil thoughts.

In order not to seem so impatient, he spoke for a while. Then he told Guo Wei and the others to rest first, got up and went to the study.

Sure enough, after a while, Yao Ji came to the study. She gently closed the door and closed the latch.

Zhu Gaoxu was overjoyed when he saw this, and when he walked over, he found that he was wearing armor. He|mother|, just now he was thinking about that matter, and he forgot about this stubble. He reached out and tugged at it, but it was difficult to remove the two layers of armor of chain mail and armor! Whether you put it on or take it off, there are at least two people to help.

Yao Ji naturally saw Zhu Gaoxu's impatient movements, her face turned red all of a sudden, and she said softly: "Don't worry, don't worry, when will I not give it to you?" I really have one thing to ...... The prince ......"

Zhu Gaoxu was no longer entangled in the armor, and went up and grabbed Yao Ji......

After a long time, Yao Ji leaned over and squatted weakly from the desk to the ground. She sat limp on her knees, her sideburns disheveled with sweat on her cheeks, and she breathed as hard as if she were suffocating.

Zhu Gaoxu went up and helped her up. Only then did she blush, avoid her face, and silently arrange her dress.

Yao Ji glanced at Zhu Gaoxu with complicated eyes, stretched out her weak hand into her messy arms, fumbled for a while, and took out a letter. Then he handed it to Zhu Gaoxu.

"Oh?" Only then did Zhu Gaoxu pick up the letter, sit down on the chair next to the desk, and take out the letter paper to read.

Zhu Gaoxu took a quick look at the content first, and before he was about to read it carefully for the second time, he raised his head and glanced at Yao Ji. Yao Ji was standing there uneasy, she seemed to have little strength and was unsteady on her feet; At this time, she had long lost the charm she had in the living room, and her forbearance seemed to prevail.

"What do you mean, let you assassinate me?" Zhu Gaoxu asked.

Yao Ji nodded with a straight face.

Zhu Gaoxu pointed to the chair next to him and said, "Sit down." ”

He read the secret letter again, then handed it back to Yao Ji, and his mood gradually calmed down. He sat in his chair with a thoughtful look.

After a long time, when Zhu Gaoxu looked up, he saw Yao Ji also looking at him. Her gaze did not evade, but she looked at Zhu Gaoxu with a somewhat complicated expression. She finally spoke: "I met the prince in Jiming Temple, it was originally arranged by the hands of fake others, but the scene of the first meeting is still vivid and unforgettable. Some things are false, but the heart is true......"

Zhu Gaoxu suddenly interrupted Yao Ji's worried speech, and said, "Yao Fang should be threatened, right?" ”

Yao Ji was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Indeed." Many of the things written in the letters are false, and this is only true if the letters are written under watch. ”

Zhu Gaoxu nodded thoughtfully and said, "Dao Yan doesn't know about Yao Fengji, and he doesn't know that Yao Fang is already a person from this king, so he will try this kind of thing." After all, you are just his two pawns, the building will fall, and the chess pieces can become outcasts.

It is impossible for Dao Yan to succeed, and this king is just thinking about how to keep Yao Fang. ”

"Lord Wang......" Yao Ji was suddenly a little surprised and a little moved.

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at Yao Ji and said gently: "Don't worry, this king will take care of this matter." If this king doesn't leave today, you can stay with me for another night...... This armor is really in the way, and it's not fun at all. ”

Yao Ji stopped talking after hearing this, and finally didn't say anything, but showed that smile on her face again.

Zhu Gaoxu understood her thoughts: since she was threatened to assassinate herself, didn't she feel dangerous to spend the night with her?

But Zhu Gaoxu really didn't feel the danger. He is a gambler, if he doesn't dare to bear such a negligible risk, what is the gambling force?
