"Whose is that kid?" Gonggong Deng asked.

"It's a little beggar on the street. I was adopted by the woman at the gate of the capital this morning. ”

Father-in-law Deng: The last remaining bit of luck in the "......" was shattered.

The plan is arranged without leakage, and only success is allowed without failure, and the people who go out on the mission are all dead soldiers, and a little beggar is deliberately blinded. It seems that a certain prince in Beijing has made a real shot.

These people want to kill Zhao Ruxi before he makes his decree, right?

In this way, it gave the second and fifth princes a warning, and it could also minimize the impact. After all, Zhao Ruxi has not received the order, and he is not a royal person. There is still a big difference between the death of an ordinary person or a six-rank official, and the death of a royal daughter-in-law. At least the emperor's anger is not so strong.

In addition, there is a great difference between ordinary nursing homes and imperial guards trained by the royal family. If Zhang Tao and the others were not there, maybe today's assassination would have been successful. So they wanted to assassinate Zhao Ruxi before he sent Zhang Tao and them to arrive.

But he wanted to sell a good one for Zhao Ruxi and King Qi, so he arrived in Nanyang before he went down at noon, announced the decree and sent two imperial guards over in time to stop the catastrophe for Zhao Ruxi.

It seems that the future Princess Qi is a blessed person, but he is unlucky, and he may not be hated by that prince.

Father-in-law Deng was upset, but he didn't know what to do.

He said helplessly: "Send these people to the capital together with the corpses, and report to the emperor to know." ”

The emperor and the king of Qi will inevitably personally inquire about this matter, although these passers-by are irrelevant, but who called them unlucky, they have to pass by at that time? Then I can only go to the capital and be a witness.

is detained in Nanyang, in case something happens and Liu Hongyu is convicted, he can't get rid of it.

As for Gusu, naturally it can't go.

"Lord Zhao, ......," the guard asked again.

"You ask Lord Liu to prepare the carriage and horses, and take care of everything; Let's go visit Lord Zhao. When our family comes back, we will go back to Beijing together. "Deng Gong is fair.

They need to rush back to Beijing before the gate of the capital is closed, and they have to take a group of passers-by and a few corpses.

Coming out of the house, Gonggong Deng said to Liu Hongyu: "You send a fellow intellectual, a warden, and a servant to escort these people to Beijing with us." ”

When these people were interrogated, Liu Hongyu and the state government were not allowed to approach the two rooms, and they were all waiting outside in panic.

At this time, when he heard that someone was going to enter Beijing, Liu Hongyu didn't dare to ask more, and replied repeatedly: "Yes, yes." He turned his head to look at Cai Yaozong and Li Li.

When Li Li learned that Zhao Ruxi had become the princess, he decided to hold this thigh tightly, after all, he was the first to surrender to Zhao Ruxi, and he had a natural innate advantage. As long as he assists Zhao Ruxi well in the next few days, if there is a chance in the future, Zhao Ruxi or King Qi will promote him to some extent. Even if he doesn't get promoted, he has nothing to lose.

But the assassination just now made him clearly realize the danger of the battle for the heir, he had been fighting between heaven and man before Gonggong Deng came out just now, and his heart that originally wanted to hug his thigh began to waver.

Now is the time for him to take a stand.

If he wants to defect to the camp of the second and fifth princes, he must stand up now and escort these people into Beijing, and at the same time he must state in front of the emperor what happened today. When the time comes, the people sent to assassinate Zhao Ruxi will inevitably hate him and want to get rid of him as soon as possible.

Is it to seek wealth and danger, or to be a petty official for the rest of your life? It's a dilemma.

Until Liu Hongyu asked, Li Li couldn't make up his mind. But when he met Liu Hongyu's gaze, his heart moved, and he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Xiaguan is willing to go." ”

Cai Yaozong is the crown prince's person. If the assassin of Zhao Ruxi cannot be investigated for a day, the prince will not be able to get rid of suspicion. Therefore, Liu Hongyu would not let Cai Yaozong go to the capital, and if he wanted to come to the emperor and His Royal Highness King Qi, he would not want to see Cai Yaozong, let alone believe what he said.

At that time, there will be a lot of troubles involved, and it is impossible for him Li Li to avoid these troubles.

So since he went anyway, he naturally took the initiative to ask for more benefits.

Cai Yaozong was also fighting between heaven and man in his mind just now. Seeing Li Li take the initiative to stand up at this time, his heart was relieved and said, "Then there is Master Lao Li." ”

Father-in-law Deng didn't care how these people were assigned, he randomly grabbed a servant and asked him to lead the way to the infirmary, and just wanted to go out, he saw some people carrying baskets and following the guards to come in.

"Father-in-law, my lord, Lord Zhao asked someone to bring us food." The guard shouted happily.

The people in the yamen suddenly lifted their spirits.

Not only did there be food, but it was also sent by Lord Zhao, so it can be seen that Lord Zhao should be fine.

Lord Zhao is fine, the anger of the emperor and His Royal Highness King Qi will not burn to the Nanyang Prefecture Yalai, and they will not become the pond fish that will be affected.

At this moment, everyone's hearts were relieved, and they were all happy.

Seeing that Zhao Ruxi's nursing home named Xiang Ming also came in, Gonggong Deng hurriedly asked, "How is it?" What is the condition of your master's injuries? ”

Xiang Ming said: "The injury is not serious, fortunately, the maid next to the girl also knows some martial arts, and pulled the girl to avoid the attack, and the girl's left arm was only scratched by one hole, otherwise it would be dangerous." ”

As he spoke, he still looked like he had palpitations.

Only then did Gonggong Deng feel relieved.

"My girl said that when such a thing happened, I really couldn't help it, so I asked the restaurant to bring the food, and everyone could eat at will." Xiang Ming said again.

"Thank you, Lord Zhao, for still thinking about us people at this time." Deng Gong is fair.

Everyone echoed and was grateful to Zhao Ruxi.

"Our family plans to send people to the capital in a while to report this matter to the emperor. So Gusu can't go. In a moment, you take me to visit Lord Zhao, and then we will leave for Beijing. Gonggong Deng said again.

Xiang Ming nodded: "There is Father-in-law Lao Deng." Father-in-law will eat first. ”

He asked Liu Hongyu for leave on behalf of his master.

Liu Hongyu said: "Let Lord Zhao recuperate at home with peace of mind, you don't have to worry about the affairs of the yamen, we can do anything on our behalf." ”

Even if Gonggong Deng was anxious, he couldn't skip eating. After sitting down and chewing wax to finish the meal, he followed Xiang Ming to Zhao's mansion.

"Father-in-law Deng, you have to talk to the emperor well, this matter must give justice to my sister Xi." Zhu cried when he saw Gonggong Deng.

"Mother, don't make trouble." Zhao Ruxi glanced at Zhu with a helpless face.

She said apologetically to Duke Deng: "My mother doesn't have many expectations for my marriage, she just hopes that I am safe." Now that the decree of marriage had come to pass, she couldn't help but be emotional. Please forgive your father-in-law for any faux pas. ”
