Although several people in the hall had different expressions, when they heard this, they all stopped in unison, and the conversation and discussion were also temporarily suspended, and everyone looked up.

Being watched by so many masters, the subordinates have long been accustomed to letting go of the Buddha, so he took out a letter from his sleeve without humility or arrogance, tore open the seal in front of everyone, and read it softly.

The two attendants guarding outside the gate had already retreated with interest when they heard him begin to read the words "patrol the ...... of Sioux City", and retreated far away to the gate of the courtyard to inspect the surrounding movements.

When the last word was read, the subordinate retreated and stopped talking, he was only responsible for passing on the news, and how to deal with the news was the master's business, and it had nothing to do with him.

"Su Cheng actually died at the hands of such a rabble......" After hearing the news, one of the men spoke, and after saying this, he couldn't help but "poof", and after the old man on the throne glanced at him, he took away the smile on his face, and said disapprehantly, "I really didn't expect it." ”

"You didn't expect that?" Someone sneered, and there was a bit of mockery in his expression, "I'm afraid Your Majesty is the one who didn't expect it." Such a good knife is gone if it is gone, do you guess what Your Majesty thinks? ”

"Some time ago, I heard that Your Majesty accidentally knocked down the Bogu frame when he was reviewing the folds in the dormitory, and broke a lot of superb ......" The person who spoke first couldn't help but sneer again, and said, "It seems that Your Majesty has been angry behind closed doors!" ”

"It's useless to get angry, Su Cheng died at the hands of a woman, not at the hands of anyone in the court, this truth is what makes Your Majesty angry the most, how useful it was then, and how angry it is now." Someone said, "With his death, it will be even more difficult to recover the remaining embezzlement money." ”

"It's hard to say." The old man sitting on the main seat spoke, compared to the different thoughts of the people in the hall, his reaction was indifferent from beginning to end, as soon as he spoke, all the people in the hall looked at him, the old man said, "Su Cheng left a large group of people to go to Jinling first, do you really think it is for a woman?" ”

Without waiting for everyone to respond, he shook his head: "I received the news, an hour ago, someone sent a message into the palace. ”

"Word of mouth?" Someone wondered, "What message?" ”

"Wait for the darts." The old man slowly uttered two words.

Waiting for darts?

Someone said "Huh" and said strangely: "Did someone ask the dart bureau to send a dart to the palace?" ”

The old man glanced at him casually and said, "Compared to this, don't you wonder who sent the message?" ”

The man shook his head: "I don't know ......" before the words came out, and suddenly thought of what the old man asked him earlier, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and his face changed suddenly, "Could it be ......?"

The old man nodded: "Su Cheng." ”

This name suddenly made people's faces ugly: "People are dead and they still have such a stubble, it's really dead and they can't stop!" ”

"It should be a dart to ask someone to press on the way to Jinling!" The person who spoke first took over the conversation playfully, "Just check how many dart games there are along the way, don't you know what Su Cheng sent?" ”

As long as the dart has not been delivered to His Majesty, it is in Chang'an, and it can be stopped if you want to.

"Qi is strange that he hasn't received a list from Sioux City in those dart games." The old man said and took a sip of the teacup in his hand, and said softly, "In short, everyone who has a ghost in his heart should have sent someone to Jinling, lest Su Cheng send something that should not be sent to His Majesty." ”

The man couldn't help but mutter, "Maybe I used a pseudonym......"

"What does it matter to us if he uses a pseudonym or not?" The old man frowned and glanced at him, "To put it bluntly, the matter of Su Cheng has nothing to do with us, and compared to this, the matter of that child is more worthy of attention." ”

At the mention of "that child", the man who was reprimanded for "stop a little" snorted coldly, shook his sleeves and strode out the door.

Pushing open the door, the moment the sunlight fell into the house, it illuminated this face, although it was a man's appearance, but the color was like a spring flower, and his appearance was better than that of many women, but the fine lines at the corners of his eyes betrayed his age, and he was not young.

Walking out of the house and closing the door, the man snorted coldly, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes ruined such a good appearance.

At this moment, there was a slight noise at the gate of the courtyard, and the man who had been reprimanded sneered, and was worried that he could not find where to attack, so he strode towards the gate of the courtyard.

"Who doesn't see like that?" Before he could reach the door, the man scolded.

"Dad, it's me." A soft woman's voice rang out.

The anger, impatience, indifference, and so on on the man's face disappeared in an instant, replaced by tenderness and worry.

"Jiaojiao, why did you come out?" The man walked to the door in three steps and two steps, and looked up to see a girl standing outside the courtyard wrapped in a cloak, and when she looked up, a face that resembled him was four or five points under the hood.

The white cloak wrapped around the girl's body, and she stood there as if she were wrapped in a layer of light.

"Listen...... I heard news from Jinling. The girl tugged at the edge of her cloak uneasily and said, "I'...... I'll ask. ”

"It's okay, you don't have to worry about the affairs over there in Jinling." As if thinking of something, a trace of disgust flashed in the man's eyes, and this disgusted look suddenly turned into a cautious gentleness when he saw the girl, "The wind is strong, Jiaojiao, go back quickly!" ”

The girl looked a little hesitant, and she asked him tentatively: "I heard that they are also in Jinling, are they still ...... I ran into her and I'm worried about ......."

"Don't worry." The man comforted her, "My family is the best." After saying this, he looked at the maid who followed the girl, and when he saw the bowl in the girl's hand, his critical eyes were immediately angry, "Didn't I say don't let this kind of thing appear in front of Jiaojiao?" If Jiaojiao has a good one, I'll ask you! He pointed to the bowl in his hand and reprimanded.

The maid trembled with fright and knelt down.

"I was in a hurry on the way here, and I accidentally bumped into it." The girl said a word for the maid next to her, and looked at the man, "Dad, I'm not muddy, I'll be careful." ”

The man sighed, looked at the girl, and said with emotion: "My Jiaojiao is the most kind-hearted," after a pause at this, he looked at the maid kneeling on the ground, and snorted, "Jiaojiao intercedes for you, and the punishment will be waived, you get up!" Don't be dissatisfied with such a master! ”

The maid hurriedly kowtowed and said "Thank you, Miss" again and again, until she knocked on the stone brick surface and faintly revealed a little red, only then did she hear a cold snort from above, and the maid got up and bent down and retreated.

"Dad, don't do this in the future." Looking at the back of the maid bending over, the girl let out a long sigh and said, "When everyone has done something wrong, Xiao Carp has been with me for a long time, and this time I insisted on coming ......"

"I told them." The man didn't want to say more about this kind of thing, and he felt distressed at the girl's slightly frowning pair of cigarette eyebrows, "You are always like this, how can I rest assured that you will go out?" ”

"I'm studying the things of the Onmyoji!" The girl smiled and raised her hand, and a scar on her plain white slender wrist lay across it, ugly and shocking.

It was a scar left by repeated lacerations and healing.
