When Gu Ruoxi heard this, her brows couldn't help frowning deeply, she glanced at Xuanyuan Jingxi, and said, "It doesn't matter? It doesn't matter what he puts so many women in the backyard for? Could it be like a vase? Aren't you going to get a few vases and put them in the backyard of the palace? ”

As soon as Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, he knew that he had violated Gu Ruoxi's taboo, and hurriedly remedied: "Where is it possible!" Don't worry! In the backyard of our palace, there will never be any other woman except you! Not to mention a vase! ”

"What about those in Xuanyuan Yu's backyard?" Gu Ruoxi tilted his head and said.

When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, he couldn't help but sigh deeply, and said, "Xi'er, not every woman is the same as you, maybe she can bear these Miss Ren herself?" I know you're doing it for her good, but if those women in Xuanyuan Yu's Mansion were really all dismissed, would you think about the consequences? ”

"Naturally, I thought about it." Gu Ruoxi said in a deep voice: "In this way, Jiaying has a reputation as a jealous woman before she gets married......"

Xuanyuan Jingxi took her hand and persuaded, "Yes! No matter what you do, there is a price, Xi'er, you promise me not to interfere again, believe me, Xuanyuan Yu will not treat Miss Ren's ...... badly"

"I'm still worried about ......," Gu Ruoxi frowned.

Xuanyuan Jingxi reached out and stroked her face, and said with a smile: "Okay, put your heart back in your stomach!" You have to believe Miss Ren, she can get you to look up to her, and she will definitely be able to handle the relationship between her and Xuanyuan Yu, everyone is responsible for their own happiness, and you, as a friend, only need to bless it. ”

When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she also felt that she had been on the tip of the bull's horns in the past two days, and she had been thinking about it for so long in vain, in fact, in the end, it still depends on how Ren Jiaying decides, she is just a friend, blessings are enough, there is no need to think so much.

"Then you want Xuanyuan Yu to guarantee that he must be good to Jiaying in this life! If not, then he will not agree to marry her! Gu Ruoxi finally said.

When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, he glanced at her helplessly, encircled the person in his arms, and said with a smile: "Okay! I promise you, when you have time, you will personally ask Xuanyuan Yu to give a promise, okay? ”

"Hey, how much is the promise worth?" Hearing this, Gu Ruoxi couldn't help but sigh. When there is no promise, she vows not to give up, but when she gets the promise, she suffers from gains and losses.

Because she remembered a sentence she had heard a long time ago: the difference between a lie and an oath is that one is true to the person who listens, and the other is true to the person who speaks.

Moreover, can a man's oath be believed?

Xuanyuan Jingxi saw her sullen expression, and immediately smiled: "It's not right to say this, it's not right to say that, what do you want?" ”

"It's okay, I'm in a bad mood myself, you don't have to pay attention to me." Gu Ruoxi said in a muffled voice.

Xuanyuan Jingxi hugged the person tighter and whispered softly in her ear

"How could I ignore you?" ”

Gu Ruoxi looked at his gentle appearance, but couldn't help laughing.

This night, Xuanyuan Jingxi stayed here with her until she was sleepy, and then she said goodbye and left.

……

In the dark night, Xuanyuan Jingxi sneaked all the way and rushed to King Jing's Mansion at a fast speed, with only a few guards by his side. Because he didn't want to be noticed, he didn't take a carriage all the way out.

But even then, they were no slower than riding in a carriage.

When there was still a street away from King Jing's Mansion, Xuanyuan Jingxi suddenly felt a thick murderous aura.

He immediately stopped, staring around with a wary expression, and the few guards behind him also noticed this, and all of them drew their swords at once, staring around with dead eyes.

The streets were empty, silent and uninhabited, and occasionally a night owl or two scurried in the alleys not far away, and their footsteps were also light and fluttering, without even making a sound, and a half-curved crescent moon suddenly appeared in the sky that had been dark clouds, and a cold wind blew through the treetops.

At this moment, something happened suddenly.

Not far away, a nightingale suddenly called out, and then countless masked people suddenly poured over on the streets in all directions like a tide, heading straight for Xuanyuan Jingxi!

"Who is it?" The guards rushed forward, brandished the dagger in their hands, and firmly protected Xuanyuan Jingxi in the center.

No one answered, and they were greeted by countless blades as fast as meteors!

Xuanyuan Jingxi drew the sword on his body, used all his strength, and fought with the masked man. The guards around him were not slow.

As soon as the pair started, Xuanyuan Jingxi couldn't help but be taken aback, these people's kung fu is not weak! Not ordinary people! And the internal force is still a little feminine.

And in this capital, who else has so many masters and wants to deal with him?

As soon as he thought of this, Xuanyuan Jingxi's face immediately sank, he waved the sword blade in his hand firmly, and used all his strength to fight with it, because there was too much anger in his chest, and his skills were a lot sharper than usual, almost cutting one with a sword, and the sword saw blood!

Soon, the man in black fell in large pieces.

Seeing that it was difficult to take Xuanyuan Jingxi's life, the black-clothed man in the lead suddenly whistled, and soon, all the masked people slipped up the wall at the fastest speed and disappeared.

"Lord Wang, are you okay?" Xue Ying had just accidentally injured his arm in the fight, and when he saw the villain leaving, he immediately turned his head and looked at Xuanyuan Jingxi from his head to his ankle with concern. As soon as he saw the blood marks on his body, Xue Ying gasped.

"I'm fine, it's all their blood." Xuanyuan Jingxi walked up to a man in black, pulled down the black scarf on his face and glanced at it, and saw that it was an ordinary man, so he let go.

"Lord Wang, these people do not represent their bodies

Portions! Xue Yingyu reported.

When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, he immediately nodded and said in a deep voice: "Okay, let's go!" ”

"Yes, Lord Wang!" Xue Ying hurriedly responded.

Xuanyuan Jingxi was about to turn around and leave, but his eyes touched the wound on Xue Ying's arm, and said in a deep voice: "You can quickly treat the wound simply!" As he spoke, he took out a small medicine bottle from his arms and handed it to Xue Ying.

"Lord Xie, but the minion has rough skin and thick flesh, so there is no need to waste such a good gold sore medicine." Xue Ying took the medicine bottle, but was reluctant to use it.

Xuanyuan Jingxi turned his head to look at him, and said coldly: "I advise you to use it!" I don't want you to bleed to death, or have your entire arm cut off because of an infected wound, leaving no useless people around this king! With that, he turned around and strode forward.

"Yes! Rajah! Subordinates are drugged! Xue Ying listened to Xuanyuan Jingxi's words, and immediately looked terrified, lowered his head and tore open the sleeves of his blood-stained clothes, and the guards next to him immediately tore off a section of his robe, stepped forward to help him sprinkle medicinal powder on the wound, and bandaged it.

All these movements were very fast, and when they were done, the guards hurriedly caught up with Xuanyuan Jingxi. Thankfully, nothing happened along the way.

However, Xue Ying and the others were still very vigilant.

Xuanyuan Jingxi glanced at them lazily and said, "Okay, don't look at it, if you fail once, those people won't come a second time, at least not tonight." ”

"Lord Wang, who is it that dares to assassinate you?" Xue Ying asked in confusion as she walked.

Xuanyuan Jingxi turned his head to look at him, and said in a deep voice: "Don't guess, no matter who it is, he has failed!" ”

"Yes, lord." Xue Ying immediately lowered his head when he heard this.

When he returned to King Jing's Mansion, Xuanyuan Jingxi went to the bathroom to bathe with a gloomy face, and waited until the bloody gas on his body was washed away, and then he changed into a clean robe and walked out of the inner room. Totosuke.

Mo Yun was already waiting outside, and when he saw him come out, he immediately said in a low voice: "Lord Wang, do you want to eat?" ”

"No, where can I eat?" Xuanyuan Jingxi said with a gloomy face.

Seeing this, Mo Yun immediately stopped speaking, he looked at Xuanyuan Jingxi's face, and decided that it was better for him not to touch the reverse scales of this great demon king, he turned around and slipped out quietly.

And in the room, Xuanyuan Jingxi muttered: "Even if you are engaged, you won't let go, right?" Then you forced me! He secretly made up his mind.

And at this moment, separated by a palace wall, there are overlapping palaces, and the imperial study is also brightly lit at this time.

The emperor sat in front of the imperial case, listening to a thin-faced eunuch below report on the situation tonight, and his face suddenly became gloomy.

"Are you all rice buckets? Even a gentleman who can only embroider his fists and legs can't deal with it? Even if it hurts him! In this way, even if she is the queen mother, she has nothing to say

Say! The emperor had a gloomy face and scolded with hatred.

When the eunuch heard this, a wry smile immediately appeared on his face. Are you sure the emperor is talking about His Royal Highness King Jing? If his skills are still fancy, then the people they sent out tonight are waste at best, right?

But the emperor's words cannot be refuted.

"Your Majesty, the slave knows his mistake!" The eunuch bowed his head and said.

The emperor looked at his proposal with deep eyes, waved his hand and said, "Okay, I won't punish you anymore, you can retreat!" Only this once, not for example! ”

When the old lady heard this, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Thank you for the emperor's kindness!" Slaves must remember your grace! With that, he got up and slowly retreated.

The Emperor glanced at him gloomily.

However, just as the eunuch walked to the door of the imperial study, a dagger suddenly came out of the oblique thorn and plunged directly into his chest.

"You ......" The old eunuch only had time to say a word, his eyes widened, the corners of his mouth were bloody, and then he fell limply.

As soon as he fell, he revealed the face of Gao Gonggong, who looked a little baby fat and always smiled on weekdays, and he was still holding a blood-stained dagger in his hand.

"Don't blame me for being ruthless, Jingxi's kid has a ridiculous good memory, as long as it is someone who has fought with him, he will definitely be able to recognize it, no matter how long it has been! Keep you, he will find out one day, it is better to die clean. Alright, take his body down and bury it properly! The emperor waved his hand and said.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Gao Gonggong was still smiling very flatteringly, but there was a hint of poison in his eyes.

Soon, he dragged the violently dead eunuch out of the imperial study.

When the emperor was the only one left in the hall, he sighed and said, "I didn't want to do this, but you forced me!" ”

……

What happened this night did not cause a ripple in the capital, Xuanyuan Jingxi did not tell anyone, and the emperor did not think it had happened, he still assigned very important government affairs to his younger brother to do, and his trust and favor still made the Manchu Dynasty civil and military jealous.

But what's there, it's still different after all.

Another month passed, and it was the hottest day of June.

In more than two months, it will be the date of Gu Ruoxi and Xuanyuan Jingxi's wedding, and it is rare to have a quiet day during this time.

And the wedding date of Ren Jiaying and Xuanyuan Yu has also been set, and it will be in the spring of the next year.

It is said that this is a strong request from Miss Ren, and she did not object to this marriage, but agreed to it, which is enough to make Mr. and Mrs. Ren grateful, but to postpone the marriage to next year, not to make it difficult for people to ask, they agreed to it.

In fact, according to the plan of Master Ren and Master Ren, they wanted to follow

When Xuanyuan Jingxi got married, Ren Jiaying was also married in August this year.

Finally, Ren Jiaying asked for another carefree life before marriage.

And Gu Ruoxi's side, as the wedding date approaches, she can no longer live a clean life like before, the internal affairs office has made a wedding dress, and she is asked to try it on in three days, repair and modify, and strive to do it in the most perfect place, and the palace has also sent a nurturing grandmother to teach her the etiquette norms when she gets married, in short, this time is busy, and even the time to meet Xuanyuan Jingxi is very little.

On such a good day for the family to celebrate, the condition of Mrs. Ding, the wife of Jinye Hou, suddenly worsened, and she was sick in bed again.

Jinye Hou was very surprised, and hurriedly invited Imperial Doctor Xu and Imperial Doctor Liang to diagnose the pulse together, but this time, the two imperial doctors invariably told Jinye Hou: "Master Hou, Mrs. Zun is terminally ill, and now there is no doctor in Yaoshi, so she can only live for a few days. ”

"How so?" When Kazuba Hou heard this, he was greatly taken aback: "Wasn't it good before?" She can get out of bed and go out and walk around, but it's only been a few months, how can she ......"

"Master Hou, please mourn ......" The two imperial doctors both bowed their heads: "Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky, and there is no one at all!" ”

Hearing this, Kazuha Hou sighed deeply and said, "No matter what, please do your best!" At least, the insiders have to stay up until the little girl gets married! Otherwise, this happy event will become a funeral, but it will be difficult to do! ”

"Master Hou, we have been friends for so many years, do you still need to ask?" Imperial Physician Xu shook his head and said, "Even if you don't say it, Imperial Physician Liang will try his best to treat Mrs. Ling, please rest assured that this Hou Ye." ”

"Then please two!" Jinye Hou hurriedly said.

"Master Hou doesn't need to be polite, this is our business." Imperial Physician Xu hurriedly said.

However, just three days after this pulse diagnosis, early in the morning, a maid stumbled to the door of the study and shouted: "Master Hou, husband, madam, she is dead!" Jin Yehou was rinsing his mouth, and a large mouthful of water squirted out when he heard the rumors, and he said with a heavy face: "What did you say?" Say it again? ”

"Master Hou, the lady was fine yesterday, and she rested after taking the medicine, but early this morning. The slaves and maids shouted several times, but no one in the house answered, pushed the door and went in and looked, Madame, Madame, she was out of breath. The little girl who came to report lowered her head and said.

Jin Yehou's face was pale, and it took him a long time to react, he threw away the teacup in his hand, and he didn't even wear a shirt, so he stumbled out and rushed to the Jinghong Courtyard!

"Quick! You go and report this matter to the second lady! Aunt Xu, who was resting in the Jinye study last night, immediately spoke.

"Yes! Aunt! "The little maid is very shrewd, and she knows that her wife is dead, and it is very likely that this Hou Mansion is

This Aunt Xu is in charge of the house and is very respectful to her.

"Go!" Aunt Xu waved her hand.

The little maid nodded in response, hurriedly turned around and ran out, and went to Zhiyu's courtyard.

Aunt Xu stood in the door frame for a moment, then turned her head and glanced out. But he went into the house again, took out Jinye Hou's coat, took the two maids, and hurried to the Jinghong Courtyard.

The Ding family is gone, I'm afraid the sky will change in this house!

When the news reached Gu Ruoxi's ears, she was also taken aback, and her eyes were full of disbelief: "Won't it? The Ding family hasn't seen Gu Xiaoye come back yet! Why did she die? ”

"Miss! The subordinates also think that this matter is very strange! Amber said in a deep voice: "Two days ago, Xu Liang's two imperial doctors also came to check the pulse of his wife, and said that with his wife's condition, he could survive at least a month or two. Maybe after the young lady got married, who would have thought that she would die so soon? "Tutu Huacai.

"I believed in Imperial Doctor Xu's medical skills, and he said that he could live for two months. Then you can! Gu Ruoxi said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Liuli sighed on the side: "However, there are exceptions to everything, and Madame is now dead......"

"There must be some unknown reason for this!" Gu Ruoxi said categorically: "Madam, she can't die so quickly!" ”

"So, miss, what now?" This sudden thing has overwhelmed Liuli, who has been frightened.

Gu Ruoxi raised her eyes and glanced at her, and said in a deep voice: "Go get washing water, prepare your clothes, wait for us to go to Jinghong Courtyard, you guys hurry up." ”

"Yes! Miss! Liuli and Amber replied in unison.

Gu Ruoxi took out the speed he had practiced every morning in his previous life in order not to be late for work, and quickly packed himself up, and hurried to the Jinghong Courtyard with the amber glaze.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I heard a burst of crying from the courtyard.
