Some people secretly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, fortunately the queen is a daughter, otherwise there may really be no place for him to stand in this imperial study......

"What is Master Hou thinking?"

Seeing Jiang Su in a daze, Su Qing reminded him in a low voice, and Jiang Su immediately reacted, "No, it's nothing." I just think the emperor is right, hehehehe. ”

Su Qingcai didn't believe his words.

He smiled slightly, and humbly bowed his hand to the emperor, "The queen mother will manage the harem in an orderly manner, so that the emperor's worries can be solved, and it will also be helpful to the previous dynasty." This is the luck of the country and the ministers. ”

The emperor smiled, his heart moved, and he suddenly had an idea.

Taking advantage of Su Youyi's mind on harem affairs, it was time for him to make a move......

It was night, the moon was dark and the wind was high.

Ji Fuzhong, who had asked the emperor for advice and recuperated in the mansion for half a month, had nothing to do in the mansion for more than a month.

But the emperor seemed to have forgotten him, and the ministers of the court seemed to have forgotten him, and even the officials who attached to him and supported him gradually stopped coming to the Ji Mansion.

The Ji Mansion became quieter and quieter.

Even the subordinates smelled some kind of mysterious atmosphere, and they didn't dare to speak loudly in the house, and they trembled.

The concubine given by the emperor was playing the pipa in the garden, and Ji Yushen was sitting in front of the window of the bedroom, opening the window to look at a dead branch outside.

That's a plum branch.

Su Youyi likes plum blossoms when she was a child, when she was a child, the Ji family planted a few old plums, and every winter flowering season, Ji Yushen will pick the best plum branches and offer them in the net bottle.

Then when the husband brought his little daughter to him, he pretended not to care and gave her a bottle.

Now the branches are withered.

Ji Yushen smiled bitterly, and the sound of the pipa came from afar, which was crisp at first, and then slowly became dull, as if it was going to rain.

He reached out the window to catch some raindrops.

If something really fell on the palm of his hand, he looked down and saw that it was indeed shocking crimson.

The blood was still hot.

Immediately after that, there was a sound of bones from the tiles of the roof, and a black shadow fell from the sky and landed in front of Ji Yushen's window.

He didn't stand up.

He didn't have to look at it, he knew what it was.

The same sound came from the courtyard one after another, some light, some heavy, some near, some far.

He finally stood up.

A black-clothed corpse was lying under his window, the face was familiar to him, he had monitored Li Ziyue for him, and he almost killed Li Ziyue.

These people were originally recruited by Li Gelao, and they were designed and controlled by him to work for him, and they were not good people originally, they were all characters who licked blood at the tip of a knife-

Dead, die, die.

He closed the window.

There was a feeling that the tide was receding, and there seemed to be someone slowly moving away in the night.

Then there was silence again, except for the intermittent sound of the lute.

I don't know how long it took, but a scream from the maid in the house broke the silence.

Ji Yushen knew that this was just the beginning of everything......

"Your Majesty."

In the Qianqing Palace, the emperor watched the music under the lamp, and was wearing a thick fox fur cloak.

Although it is spring, the emperor's body is not yet well, so he has to follow the words of the imperial doctor to protect himself from the cold at all times.

Gao Qishou hurriedly walked in, and the emperor raised his head and saw him nodding solemnly.

It seems that it has come to pass.

"The last minions around Ji Yushen have been removed, and now he is a caged bird, who can only be slaughtered by others. How long has he been resting in the house? ”

"It's been more than a month."

The emperor put down his pen and wrapped his cloak tightly, "It's time to invite him back to the court. ”

"Please ask him to return to the court?"

Gao Qishou was a little surprised, and quickly figured it out.

This is a feast......

The corpses all over the ground in the Ji Mansion had just been cleaned up, and the emperor's will came down immediately.

The people of Ji Mansion, who were originally trapped in the gloomy clouds, regained their strength as if they saw hope, but Ji Yushen was still the same as before, lazily accepting the will.

"The minister obeys the order, and he will return to the court tomorrow."

As long as his master returns to the court, there will be hope for that Ji Mansion!

The housekeeper, who was emotionally aroused by the holy decree, ordered someone to dispose of the corpse, and went to Ji Yushen again, "Master, do you have a count of these people who died in the mansion?" ”

It's too scary for anyone to ask.

Ji Yushen threw away the emperor's holy decree, and the housekeeper picked it up in a panic, "Don't ask, deal with it, no one will ask about this matter." ”

The steward laid out the decree and kept it secret.

It seems that there is a big problem with the identities of these people who died, otherwise they would not all be brutally killed overnight, and Ji Yushen would not be as indifferent as if he had known it for a long time.

He took a deep breath and tried to show the smile he had before, "Master, tomorrow you have to return to the court, or do you want the tailor to make two more clothes?" The master's summer clothes are not ready yet. ”

"Summer clothes?"

Ji Yu was secretly amused.

Who knows if he will survive to that time.

……

The next day, Ji Yushen returned to the court, and everyone was watching.

This kind of attention is completely different from the attention he had when he was a close confidant of the emperor in the past, this kind of attention is full of inquiry, curiosity, and an expectation of watching a good show.

Today's Ji Yushen is completely different from before.

Ji Yushen was dressed in court clothes and slowly walked into the main hall, his eyes did not squint, and his posture was neither humble nor arrogant.

Still the jade tree is in the wind, gentle and calm.

Judging from his slightly smiling expression, it was not at all clear that he was being deprived little by little. The person in power is more like he used to be, young and flamboyant, and he is the first person in this court.

He is also the youngest and most skillful politician in ancient and modern times.

Thinking of this, those undisguised gazes were slightly retracted, not daring to make another attempt.

Ji Yushen was still standing in his original position, looking at his nose and nose, his face was like water, and he was not chaotic at all.

The emperor came from the apse, and saw Ji Yushen standing in the front for the first time, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

He sat down on the Golden Dragon Throne, "Ji Shoufu's illness is cured?" ”

Ji Yushen was on vacation at home, using the excuse of recuperation, but the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty knew that he was not sick.

At this time, when the emperor asked this, someone snickered at the bottom.

Ji Yushen also smiled, "The minister is fine, thanks to the emperor's blessing." ”

The emperor said: "Since you are safe, you have to work hard, the affairs of the DPRK and China are complicated, how can you do it without Ji Shoufu?" Zhou Cifu is old, and it is not easy to temporarily serve as the first assistant, and he should be allowed to rest. ”

Zhou Cifu snorted lightly when he heard this.

He wished that Ji Yushen wouldn't come back, he was old, but if the emperor was willing to use him as his first assistant, he would definitely do his best and never shirk.

But Ji Yushen's pestle is here, where is his share as the first assistant?

I saw Zhou Cifu stand up, "Your Majesty, the minister heard that Ji Shoufu was not sick, but drank and had fun in the mansion all day long, I don't know if it's true or not?" If it's true, pretending to be sick and not going to court, this is a crime of deception! ”
