The gate of the Hou Mansion was closed, and shortly after noon, the eight guards outside the gate were withdrawn, they were the palace guards, and they could not guard the door of the Hou Mansion.

Yang Feng summoned everyone in the mansion and gathered in the courtyard to count the heads.

There were a total of fifteen eunuchs, eight palace maids, plus Han Ruzi, Yang Feng, and thirteen "friends" brought by Yang Feng, a total of thirty-eight people.

Yang Feng said to everyone: "You are all willing to follow the tired marquis out of the palace, you must have been reminded a long time ago, and it will not be smooth sailing after leaving the palace......"

"We're not afraid!" Zhang Youcai shouted, his voice was a little loud, and he couldn't control it when he got excited.

"Afraid or not, we are all standing here, since we are in the same boat, I will not hide it from you: the current situation is very dangerous." No one responded, Yang Feng glanced at everyone and continued: "We all know that the Queen Mother really let the tired marquis abdicate, that's all. But people outside don't know, they will speculate according to their own ideas, and some people will overguess if they can't do it, and want to use the tired head of the marquis to ask the queen mother for credit. There has never been such a thing in this dynasty, but it happened in the previous dynasty, and when the court elects a new emperor, there may be more people who want to invite merit. ”

"Can't the Queen Mother send someone to protect the Tired Hou?" A eunuch in the crowd whispered a question.

"No, a group of palace guards standing in front of the Hou Mansion will make outsiders more suspicious of the Queen Mother's intentions, we have to protect ourselves, as long as we suffer the first few days, the suspicion of outsiders will gradually dissipate, tired Hou is safe, we are also safe."

The eunuchs and palace maids looked at each other, they had indeed been reminded before leaving the palace that they would have to take a certain amount of danger by following the abolished emperor, but that was only a general statement, now that the danger had really come, and it had come so early, they were still a little panicked.

Zhang Youcai said loudly: "What are you afraid of, we are all people who have made trouble in the palace, and we are still afraid of a few little thieves outside?" ”

Everyone echoed in unison, and Yang Feng waited for everyone to say almost enough before continuing: "You don't have to worry too much, your duty is very simple, guard the door, without the permission of the Tired Marquis and me, don't let anyone in, there are really madmen who dare to break into the mansion, and I will deal with it." ”

The thirteen "friends" brought by Yang Feng are all tall and strong men, with knives on their bodies, aggressive eyes, and they are frightening to look at, but the care of the home is reassuring.

The eunuchs and palace maids were more at ease.

The Hou Mansion was a little too big, and Yang was ordered to lock the back garden and the doors of the third and fourth courtyards, and everyone lived in the first two courtyards.

Han Ruzi was placed in an ear room, which was supposed to be a study in the past, with bookcases and bookshelves, but there was not a single book.

Han Ruzi sat behind the bookcase and shook his feet, Zhang Youcai was busy wiping the dust, frowned and said, "Your Majesty...... No, is the host staying here? There is not even a bed, is Yang Feng exaggerating a little? This is the Baiwang Lane in the capital, and the people who live here are either kings or princes, who dares to make trouble? ”

Han Ruzi was thinking about things, smiled, and didn't answer, a voice came from the door, "There are people in the palace who dare to break into, let alone Baiwang Lane?" ”

Zhang Youcai was startled and stuck out his tongue, "Yang Gong is here, I'm sorry, I'm just ......"

"Call me 'Steward.'" Yang Feng said coldly, "Stand down, you are not needed here for the time being." ”

Zhang Youcai put down the rag, hurriedly walked out, and when he got behind Yang Feng, he turned around and glanced at the emperor, meaning that he was outside the door and was on call.

Yang Feng didn't see the little eunuch's movements, glanced around a few times, and said, "Someone will send a simple cot later, and the tired Hou will endure it here for a few days." ”

"It's a good place, it would be nice if it could be filled with books."

"Well, there will be later."

"Have you ever heard of that? The study is the hiding place of the male host. ”

Yang Feng was stunned for a moment, he was still in the mood to chat at this time, which was very unexpected for him, and shook his head, "I haven't heard of it, how can I say this?" ”

"It was my mother who told me, and she said that the study was the hiding place of the male master, and they hid in it in a serious manner, pretending to do very important work, and justifiably forbidding his wife and children to enter, where he could be in a daze, he could think wildly, he could enjoy his favorite things, and he could abandon his husband's and father's identity for a while."

Yang Feng was stunned again, but nodded, "I used to have a study room too...... Indeed, I not only read in it, but also lazy in it, and my family never found out. Is Wang Meiren talking about Emperor Huan? ”

"I guess so, I've never been in my father's study. The mother also said that the study was so secretive, so the men were here to plot their plots. ”

Yang Feng was stunned for the third time, "What did Wang Meiren teach you?" ”

"My mother taught me a lot of things, and I'm still trying to figure them out. I loved this study. Han Ruzi patted the armrest of the chair, and touched the smooth bookcase, there was nothing on it, the things in the Hou Mansion were naturally not as exquisite and luxurious as those in the palace, and the surface was a little shabby, but he really liked it, "Sitting here, I can feel that this room belongs to me." ”

Yang Bong bowed deeply, the young man often surprised him, and after each surprise, his expectations increased by one point, "Please keep it this way." ”

Han Ruzi nodded and asked formally, "Will anyone really want to kill me?" ”

"The news of the abdication of the Marquis has long been spreading, and I have been inquiring about the news these days, and at the same time I am also persuading the ministers of the DPRK and China to believe that the Queen Mother has no murderous intentions towards you."

"But they didn't believe it."

"Neither believing nor unbelieving, they are waiting. There is no way, only a few ministers have had contact with the tired marquis, and the impression is very good, but they cannot be publicized to the outside world, and most people can only rely on rumors to make judgments, and rumors are not very favorable to the tired marquis. ”

"They think I used to be a faint king?"

"In the past few months, many bad things have indeed happened in the imperial court......"

"I understand, the emperor is the emperor, outsiders don't care whether you are a puppet or not, in short, the mistakes of the court are the mistakes of the emperor."

"Exactly."

"Who's going to kill me?"

"The ministers will not, they prefer to stay away from the palace disputes. People who live in peace will not, and it will not do them any good. But there are two kinds of people in the capital, one is a ruffian who will be bought by anyone, and the other is a noble son who has lost power, and in order to get benefits, both of these people are willing to take risks. ”

Han Ruzi thought of those noble attendants in the palace, they all had great prospects, and they should not take the risk of killing the emperor.

Yang Feng continued: "I got news this morning that there is a gang of rogue young men in the city who are about to move, they do not want to please the Queen Mother, but want to kill you to make a name, and at the same time take your head and sell it. These people are easy to deal with, just block the door and don't let them in. Those noble sons who have lost power are not easy to say, they will not leak their thoughts to the outside world, and I don't know if they will find masters. ”

Han Ruzi was not afraid, on the contrary, he was in a good mood, "But we are not afraid." ”

"Why aren't you afraid?" It was Yang Feng who asked the question.

"Both of these people are risk-takers, 'who start out scrappy and are disappointed when they find out that things are not the same as they expected.'" Han Ruzi said with a smile, and directly used Yang Feng's words to evaluate Luo Huanzhang, "As long as we block a few provocations, and the Queen Mother has no other hints, they will retreat from the difficulty, and everyone will believe that the Queen Mother really has no intention of killing me." ”

Yang Feng nodded.

Han Ruzi put away her smile and asked seriously: "The Queen Mother really has no intention of killing me?" ”

"As far as I know, not." Yang Feng replied cautiously, "We can only prepare according to this." ”

Han Ruzi swiped his fingers around the table and asked, "It's really strange, the Queen Mother is the real emperor of Great Chu, but there is no way to express her meaning clearly?" ”

"She can't do it and she doesn't want to do it, and it doesn't do her any good. Whoever kills you, she will kill whoever kills, and the matter will be completely ended. ”

"Wouldn't it be bad luck for the adventurers who came to kill me? With great expectations, it will not be done, it will be nothing, and it will be done, but it is a capital crime. ”

"A person who understands things is not an adventurer, and he can think about a question: how can you clearly express your meaning as the supreme."

"You can't do it by will, everyone will understand it in their own way......" Han Ruzi suddenly found that Yang Feng had assigned him tasks like before, and couldn't help but ask, "Will this still be useful?" ”

"If it's useless, the Tired Hou is just wasting a little time to do nothing, and if it's useful, the Tired Hou can hold the opportunity tighter than anyone else."

Han Ruzi smiled, "If you have a Yang Gong, if you have a general, the Queen Mother will send you to me, I believe she has no killing intent." ”

Yang Feng raised a finger and shook it twice, "Touting others is a university question, and you have to study hard in the future." ”

Han Ruzi stood up, "There are a lot of things to learn, take your time, it's time to eat, right?" ”

It was already past noon, the sun set early in winter, and it was already dusk outside the house, so Han Ruzi didn't eat much for breakfast, and he didn't see a shadow for lunch.

"Zhang Youcai!" Yang Feng shouted, knowing that the little eunuch was guarding outside the door.

Zhang Youcai immediately came in, "What does Manager Yang command?" ”

"Why aren't you cooking yet?"

Zhang Youcai looked surprised, "Rice? Where did the food come from? ”

Yang Feng is a talented person who can help the world, ascend to the court, enter the rivers and lakes, and when it comes to governing the family, it is a big difference, and he said slightly angrily: "Of course it is the food you cook, don't you know anything when you leave the palace?" ”

"There are two cooks, but there is no rice, noodles, vegetables and meat, what can I cook with?" Zhang Youcai spread his hands, "We entered the house last night, but the grain of rice did not enter, only drank some well water, and thought that as soon as the manager arrived, there would be everything, and it turned out that the manager Yang did not bring anything to eat." ”

Yang Feng was stunned, "I ignored it...... It's a little late today, so bear with me, and I'll send someone to buy rice and noodles early tomorrow morning. This should be the responsibility of the lord of the Ministry of Rites, and the mansion they have chosen is not even ready for food? ”

"Maybe they are also figuring out the Queen Mother's intentions." Han Ruzi said, rubbing his stomach, "I can endure it for one night." ”

Zhang Youcai's mouth pouted, he had endured it all night, "Bear with it, it's boring to fight." ”

As soon as the words fell, a swordsman ran in, didn't look at the tired marquis, and said directly to Yang Feng: "It's here." ”
