Chapter Eighty-Six: Brewing
The people in black who fought on the roof of the house were very good at it, and soon gained the upper hand, and the man in black on the roof saw that the one who sneaked into the room was injured and fled, and immediately retreated, and the generals in the house followed closely.
He Huan was not lightly injured, Shu He helped her up and asked her if she could hold on, He Huan said it was fine. Shuhe helped He Huan to the door, Tian Sheng, who had just fought fiercely with the man in black, was rushing to Shuhe's side, and when he saw that someone was injured, he immediately whistled three times, and five or six small servants came, after Tian Sheng checked He Huan's injury, he ordered one of the small servants to get medicine, and the rest helped He Huan to the main hall.
Wu's mother came out of the kitchen with a bowl of longan and red date porridge, and was about to go to Shuhe's courtyard, when she just arrived at the corridor of the main hall, she saw several people gathered in the main hall, and she quickened her pace and approached the crowd.
Wu's mother was cooking porridge for Shuhe in the kitchen, but she didn't know what was going on, she squeezed through the crowd, saw the injured He Huan, and almost smashed the bowl of porridge in her hand. Wu's mother was so nervous that she trembled, caring about Shuhe's injury, Shuhe told her that she was okay, and Wu's mother breathed a sigh of relief and helped Shuhe sit down on the side.
Take the medicine back, quickly let He Huan take it, people who practice martial arts have one or two elixirs to carry with them, He Huan took the pills and felt a lot better.
Tian Sheng knew that when there were two groups of people, his heart was not good, but he still had to stabilize people's hearts, and he said to Shu He: "Madam, you don't have to be too nervous, go back to your room to rest early, tonight I will send someone to guard your courtyard, you can rest in peace." Shu He nodded in agreement, because she knew that the assassin would not come again tonight.
Wu's mother carefully helped Shu He, Shu He asked her to help He Huan, Tian Sheng sent them back to the room, and ordered the front and back of the room to be guarded, and he hid directly in the shadow of the corner.
Shu He returned to the room, pulled out his hairpin from the pillar, and reinserted it into his bun. Mother Wu set He Huan up, closed the doors and windows, served Shu He to rest, Shu He lay down in his clothes, and kept replaying what happened tonight in her mind, she must come up with a reason.
Chang Wan was blocked in the room by Peony, and Peony knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, "Master, the slave and maid can't let you out, the assassin is not coming at you, why do you want to wade into troubled waters, you should not know about it, slave beg!" ”
When Peony grabbed her, she knew that this matter must not be simple, and Peony must be this matter, that is to say, the assassin is a person from the Nine Princes.
Chang Wan is still a person of the Nine Princes on the bright side of Peony, so she has no choice but to give up, let's just act as if she doesn't know anything, fortunately, it didn't take long for everything in the house to be calm, it seems that she didn't succeed, and Chang Wan also pretended to rest without anything.
But she still couldn't rest, feeling ashamed of the general's commission, she was tormented in her heart, and she had no sleep all night.
Is she the only one who has no sleep?
In the palace hall, the emperor is playing under the lamp alone, the lights are brilliant, the golden light is overflowing, and it is a gorgeous scene.
The masked man came out from behind the hall and knelt down in front of the hall, but the emperor did not immediately greet him, a black chess piece rubbed between his thumbs, and he thought for a long time before he settled the chess piece in his hand.
He spoke slowly, "It's the same as expected, isn't it?" The masked man replied: "Yes, Your Majesty is wise!" ”
The emperor didn't say much, just looked fixedly at the chessboard he was playing. The masked man spoke again: "Your Majesty, there is one more thing, there is a group of night walkers sneaking into there. Hearing this, the emperor projected his gaze on the masked man, looking very curious, "Oh? And these things, they didn't find you, did they? ”
The masked man replied, "No, I sneaked up from the other side." It's just that the girl knows kung fu, and the maid can also do kung fu. ”
The emperor first said: "It's not found, good!" In less than half a second, he immediately sat upright, seemingly surprised, "Can you do martial arts?" Do you see clearly? ”
The masked man said, "I have fought and I can see it clearly, and my kung fu is more advanced than that of the maid," and he did not mention the injury on his shoulder.
The emperor put his hands on his knees, rubbed, thought, and muttered, "Is this really the case?" After a long time, he said to the masked man, "I still have something for you to do, the sooner the better!" ”
The masked man said, "Your Majesty commands, and you will live up to your command!" ”
The emperor said, "Come here, come closer!" The masked man knelt down and walked over as he said, prostrate in front of the holy car, and the emperor whispered to him what he wanted to do......
The words were closed, and the masked man prostrate to receive the order, "I will live up to Your Majesty's trust!" The masked man got up and saluted, retreated to the pillar at the entrance of the apse, and then turned and leaped out.
In the study room of the Nine Princes' Mansion, Ji Heng knelt in front of the Nine Princes, looking frustrated, and the arrogant and domineering side in front of people was hidden intact.
"What do you say? What about misses? Are you a bunch of trash? ”
The Nine Princes were very angry, furious, and looked like they were going to eat people. Ji Heng is very weak, for fear that if he is not careful, he will be skinned horizontally and go out to feed the dogs, with the current aura of the Nine Kings, he really does it, so he is honest.
Ji Heng said: "The original plan was seamless, there were people secretly helping each other inside, and there were people with strong martial arts outside. I didn't expect that woman's maid's martial arts skills to be so high, our people tried their best to barely escape from the maid's knife, if it wasn't for the timely run, it is estimated that we would not have seen you the Nine Princes! ”
Ji Heng continued: "We don't know how a general's mansion has so many secret hands with strong martial arts. It looks like an ordinary family, but in fact, his martial arts are very good! They should be together inside and outside, so our people will return in vain! ”
"Rubbish! A woman can't help it, my people have already told you which yard you are in, and when no one bumps into you...... Really, rice bucket! When the Nine Kings scolded him, Ji Heng listened honestly and didn't dare to have any dissatisfaction.
Gradually, the Nine Kings lost a lot of anger, and couldn't help asking: "You said that there are people in the mansion who are strong in kung fu?" ”
Ji Heng hurriedly nodded like a pug, "Yes, yes, the people who fight with us are all good, and the maid's martial arts are really high, and she also hurt our people." ”
The Nine Kings glanced at Ji Heng viciously, and couldn't help but scold again, "What a waste!" After the ninth prince finished scolding, he thought about it alone, and he muttered to himself, "The maid knows martial arts, what about that woman?" Is there kung fu? ”
Ji Heng said that he didn't know, and the Nine Princes didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, pacing in the study alone, his mind spinning rapidly.
Ji Heng has been kneeling on the ground and not daring to move, Xu is kneeling for a long time, he felt a tingling in his legs, always squinted at the Nine Kings with his eyes, and when the Nine Princes turned their backs to him, he moved slightly.
His small movements, the Nine Princes saw it, but they didn't bother to care about him. After pacing for a long time, he stood still and asked Ji Heng, "Give you a chance to make up for your mistakes, do you want to do it or not?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes! We will not miss such an opportunity! Ji Heng's head is like a little turtledove eating rice, and he said that he wanted this opportunity to make up for it, but he didn't figure out what this opportunity was first.
The Ninth Prince looked at Ji Heng's frustration, and he was angry. However, the people are there, and he can't pull the face to do too much.
The Ninth Prince asked him: "You, don't ask what kind of opportunity you have?" ”
Ji Heng replied resignedly: "I will definitely complete the opportunity given by the prince, even if I go to the soup and fire, I will finish it, even if the prince wants me to pick the moon in the sky, I will go." ”
The face of these big words is not red and his heart is not beating, which thing has he done for the Ninth Prince? Thank God for not causing a big mess, the Nine Princes really couldn't listen to it anymore, so he directly interrupted him, "Secretly tied up that woman for me and sent her to my secret room, I want to use her to close the military power in Duyuan's hands!" His woman is in my hands, see if he dares not to listen to me! When the time comes, let him kneel and beg me to take his military power, hahaha......"
Ji Heng didn't expect it to be such a task, and immediately the whole person stiffened in place, and the smile on his face was so embarrassed that it was distorted, but in order to make the Nine Kings dissipate his anger and avoid being punished, he had to stubbornly agree to say yes.
Playing swollen and fat, he is talking about a brazen person like Ji Heng. What he said was so sworn and touching; In fact, he had already begun to retreat in his heart, and he was not very sure that he could do this.
