Section II

Nanning is about 20 miles wide from east to west and about 25 miles from north to south. The Prime Minister's Mansion is located in the north of the city, and the Governor's Mansion is located in the west of the city. Most of the ordinary people live in the south of the city. There is a special residential area for ordinary people to live in, and the houses are densely packed to form a square, and there are countless alleys to separate each square.

Last night it snowed heavily overnight, and too many things happened, and when the morning bell rang, the people of the forbidden army yamen rode out in all directions to patrol the streets and straighten out order. Soon after, the black armor-clad Nakanishi Iron Cavalry began to block the streets, and then searched from house to house. The huge city was boiling like a boiling pot, and there was shouting and noise everywhere.

The courtyard where Steward Hu stayed was a restaurant in the north and south of the city. Because it is opened in a small alley, most of the people who usually come to take care of the business are neighbors, but now the city street is very chaotic, and the people in the neighborhood are too scared to go out, but this alley is deserted and rarely sees people.

Not long after He Yi gave birth to the dragon and phoenix fetus, Steward Hu and Hei Er sat opposite each other, both of them had a sad look on their faces, and after a while, Hei Er said: "Boss, under normal circumstances, Xiangye should have given us further instructions, but now, there is still no news, and the situation is a little bad......

This black two is about his early forties, with an ordinary face, and he belongs to the kind that no one can recognize when he is thrown in the crowd, but as soon as he speaks, his throat is as hoarse as if it has been broken, and it is very uncomfortable to listen to. Before he finished speaking, Steward Hu's ears moved, and he said, "The seventh is back." ”

As he spoke, the man stood up: "What happened, just listen to Lao Qi and say no." ”

Although he had tried his best to control zhì, Steward Hu had already carried a trill. He has been with the prime minister for decades and knows his habits very well. The prime minister's work and rest are very regular, and once he decides something, no matter how busy he is, he will not drag it out. According to the agreement, even if the prime minister does not come, he should send someone to inform him, but until now, there is still no news, and outside is the forbidden army yamen and the Zhongxi iron cavalry showing off their might, and there is not a single soldier in the prime minister's mansion. Could it be that Xiang Ye has been?

When he was thinking about it, there was a "bang" on the floor, and a man in black fell from the beam, it was Hei Qi, he fell to the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "Old, boss...... Last night, the Queen Mother sent blood to wash the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the Prime Minister fought and died. ”

"What?"

Steward Hu's body trembled, his eyes were dark, and he almost fell down. Hei Er hurriedly supported him, and said a little blankly: "What now?" Top dog? ”

Now what? Steward Hu smiled bitterly, fortunately, he had already been mentally prepared, although the news was bad, it was not abrupt, and he hurriedly put his heart away and said: "The most important thing now is to ensure the safety of everyone's lives." He raised his head, looked at the inner bedroom, and said, "It seems that we have to talk to this second lady of the Governor's Mansion." ”

As he spoke, he got up and walked towards the bedroom.

He Yi's identity is clear to the black-clothed guards, so he naturally doesn't dare to slack off. The bedroom was very clean, even if there were some blood and water stains during childbirth, but under Xiaohui's hard work, it was cleaned in a short time. When he entered the bedroom, there was nothing unusual in the room, but the air was a little hot and humid, not as cold as outside.

The mother is bitter, the dragon and phoenix fetus sounds very beautiful, but if it is really born, the price paid is huge, He Yi worked hard to finally give birth to the two brothers and sisters, but he also exhausted his energy, and at this time he was lying on the bed, hugging the quilt and sleeping sweetly. Her cheeks were pale and haggard, and on her forehead, a few green threads were messy. Probably wiped by Xiaohui, so there are no sweat stains on the face, but it is clean and abnormal.

Steward Hu frowned and said to a black-clothed guard, "Wake her up." ”

The next thing to discuss was too big and top secret, and Steward Hu was also afraid that the two little things would cry, so there was no need to talk about it at all, so he asked Xiaohui to go out with the child and clean his face.

The black-clad guard answered, "Yes." Then he pushed He Yi's shoulder, the latter groaned, opened his eyes a little confused, and after a while, his consciousness came to his senses.

Looking at this face that was almost exactly the same as Zhu Yuqing, Steward Hu was also a little unnatural, swallowed his saliva, and smiled with some difficulty: "......Are you awake?"

Although he is a master of the late eighth stage, he has been a subordinate for decades, and when he laughs, his face is covered with wrinkles, straight like goosebump, coupled with his humble voice, full of intimacy, no matter how you look at it, he looks like a harmless old housekeeper. So in any case, it will not scare the pregnant woman. He is still very sure of this. But He Yi turned a blind eye to his greeting, first muttered, and then cried out in horror: "Child, where is my child?" Two children. ”

She stood up, shoved the black-clothed guard, and screamed, "Give me back the child." ”

She obviously didn't know martial arts, but this time the strength was amazing, and the killer was caught off guard, and she pushed him back several big steps. Steward Hu was taken aback, and said, "Your child is fine, he is being taken care of by Liu Hui, let's talk about business first." ”

He Yina doesn't care about what is right or not, he has already lost the demeanor of a generation of virgins, and even his eyes are red, and he roared at Steward Hu: "Child, return the child to me." ”

Seeing that she was about to pounce, the black-clothed guard hurriedly stepped forward and held her, Steward Hu frowned, and said with some displeasure: "I have said it, your child is safe and sound." ”

He Yi is already gone, with two children, a son and a daughter. The son carries the hope of the He family, but the daughter is the expectation of her and Wu Ming. She clearly remembered that she gave birth to these children safely, but now the children are gone, how can the panic and fear be understood by a big man like Steward Hu?

Seeing that she was crazy, and if she didn't bring the child here, she wouldn't be able to speak properly, Steward Hu waved his hand helplessly, and said to the black-clothed guard: "You go, ask Liu Hui to bring the child in." ”

The black-clothed guard answered, leaving He Yi and walking out, He Yi instantly quieted down, his wonderful eyes were full of eagerness and anticipation, and he followed the man for a moment, until his figure disappeared at the door.

Steward Hu smiled bitterly and explained: "When we arrested you, we didn't expect you to give birth at this time, I'm really sorry." ”

He Yili ignored him, still staring at the door with shining eyes. Steward Hu was bored, so he had to keep silent.

Xiaohui was in the next room, and after only a short while, she came in with two children in her arms. It's just that although she is married, she was taken captive on the wedding night, so strictly speaking, she is still a yellow flower girl, so what experience do you have with children. She hadn't even hugged the child, and when she thought of the identity of the two baby bumps, she was even a little unlucky to walk, for fear that if she was not careful, she would hurt these two pink, tender, and fragile little guys. walked in cautiously all the way, and when she saw He Yi's expectant eyes, she hurriedly hugged the child in front of her, and said with a smile: "Second lady, don't worry, the two little ones are cute." ”

As soon as she spoke, the child on the left was very dissatisfied, and cried out with a "wow", and the little guy on the right was sleeping with his eyes closed, and he was also noisy, and he cried. Panicked, He Yi hurriedly took the two of them from Liu Hui's hands, and called softly: "Child, my child..."

The child has just been born, and his eyes have not yet opened, and his face has a kind of ruddy color that is unique to newborns. The two little guys were cleaned by Xiaohui, one left and one right, with their small mouths open, and their little arms also moving, crying loudly.

He Yi shed tears, hugged the two children in his arms, and cried with joy: "Baby, don't cry baby, my mother is here." Xu felt the mother's heartbeat, the two children felt safe, and the crying gradually lowered, but they were still sobbing quietly.

He Yi looked down at the two children, his face became serene, kind, and bloomed with the brilliance of the Virgin Mary. Steward Hu on the side also breathed a sigh of relief, and said softly: "Madam, now that the child has been sent to you, shouldn't we have a good talk?" ”

He Yi was shaking lightly, in order to coax the two children to fall asleep early, when he heard the words, his expression moved, his movements stopped, and he said vigilantly: "What are you talking about?" ”

"What are you talking about?" Steward Hu smiled, tried his best to make his voice appear kind, and said slowly: "Actually, it's nothing, just ask you to write a letter to tell Wu Ming that you are safe, and that your mother and son are safe, and then, you will be guaranteed by the governor of China and the West to ensure the safety of my brothers." ”

Feeling the familiar heartbeat of their mother, the familiar smell, the two little ones gradually quieted down. One of them seemed to be a little hungry, and was spreading his little hands, as if trying to find something, while the other was more mischievous, and his little mouth squirmed, and two small bubbles spat out of the corners of his mouth. He Yi was scratched by a small thing in front of him, and his chest was a little itchy, so he couldn't help but smile and let the two children stick tighter. When he heard Steward Hu say this, he was puzzled, and his eyes widened and asked, "Is this why you took me captive?" If you want to be safe in life, isn't the prime minister more suitable than Brother Wu? ”

Although she didn't know Steward Hu, Xiaohui grew up in the Prime Minister's Mansion since she was a child, and she had already revealed her identity to He Yi.

The bearded parent sighed, and there was something wet in his eyes: "Alas, master, the master is gone......"

The prime minister is gone? This news was too shocking, He Yiben was teasing the two children, and when he heard Steward Hu say this, his hand shook, and the child almost slipped out of his hand, and quickly calmed down: "What the hell is going on, can you tell me?" ”

Steward Hu settled down and briefly said the news he got from Hei Qi. He Yi looked at him quietly, seeing that Steward Hu's face was heavy, and it didn't seem like a lie, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but her mind turned away. The prime minister's purpose for arresting himself was to persecute Brother Wu, but now he was killed by the Queen Mother by mistake. The military strength of the Central, Western and Northwest regions is at its peak, but when it comes to spy organizations, it has not been formed. These black-clothed guards are extraordinary, and if they can win it over, it will be a great help.

Now that he understood Steward Hu's meaning, He Yi's heart settled down, and he said slowly: "It's not impossible for me to write a letter, but there is a condition." ”

Steward Hu was stunned and asked casually, "What conditions?" ”

"You black-clad guards must join the Governor's Palace, otherwise there will be no talks."

"The Blackguard joins the Doge's Palace?" Steward Hu muttered a sentence and was about to say something more, when there was a sudden chaos outside, and Hei Qi rushed in in a panic and said loudly: "Boss, something is wrong, Zuo Changshi brought someone here." ”
