Chapter 72 (Second Watch)

After Wu Weihou returned home, he entered Liu Fuxiang's courtyard.

Seeing that Wu Weihou was back, the maid immediately reminded Liu Fuxiang, who was sitting in front of the mirror, "Madam, Master Hou is back." ”

Liu Fu stood up happily and hurriedly tried to wipe away the tears on her face.

Wu Wei Hou stepped into the threshold, and a group of maids hurriedly greeted Wu Wei Hou, and the voices came and went, which was very lively.

Someone reached out to open the curtain, and in a burst of pearl and green sounds, Wu Weihou entered the house.

Liu Fuxiang hurriedly stepped forward, "Master Hou is back?" It's cold and cold outside today, Yulu, go and tell the kitchen to boil a bowl of ginger soup for Hou Ye. ”

The eldest girl Yulu answered and went immediately.

Wu Weihou looked at Liu Fuxiang and smiled, "Madame's makeup today is particularly delicate and pleasing to the eye. ”

Liu Fuxiang's body stiffened slightly, and she glanced at Wu Weihou coquettishly, "Master Hou saw that the concubine's makeup was not delicate and pleasing to the eye one day?" ”

Wu Weihou nodded, "That's right." The words fell, and he sat down.

Liu Fuxiang hurriedly brought a cup of hot tea and handed it to Wu Weihou, "Master Hou warms up first." ”

Wu Weihou stretched out his hand to take it, took a sip of hot tea, held the hot tea, and said to Liu Fuxiang, "Zi is back, do you know?" ”

Liu Fuxiang blurted out that she didn't know, but thinking that Su Zi was cut back, how could she not know, Hou Ye was not a fool. So, she nodded, "I know, the concubine has already asked people to inquire, the son hasn't returned home for half a year, I don't know if I can go back to Beijing today?" The concubine is also good for the kitchen to prepare meals. ”

Wu Wei waited for his head, "It's okay for you to send someone to ask, he has been away for more than half a year, probably a lot of things have happened, not only the cold disease brought from his mother's body has improved, but his temperament seems to have changed." When the words fell, he and Liu Fuxiang gossiped, "It has become so that my father almost doesn't know him." ”

Liu Fuxiang was puzzled, but she knew that Su Zi's cold illness that she had followed since she was a child was better, which made her happy and sad. Worriedly, he asked, "What has become of Childe's temperament?" ”

Wu Weihou shook his head, "I can't say it, you will know it when you see him." ”

Liu Fuxiang saw that Wu Wei didn't say anything, and didn't dare to ask after him, so she nodded.

The two stopped talking for a moment, and the room was quiet.

Wu Weihou drank a cup of tea and said to Liu Fuxiang, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is about to get married, and Zi Chu is not young, he used to have a cold disease, and he has a ruthless reputation, most of the famous ladies dare not think of him as a husband, and now he has a cold disease, and he has been promoted to the head of the household, so young, His Royal Highness the Prince is important, and the future is immeasurable." As a stepmother, you also have to worry about his marriage, and you need to worry a little more. ”

Liu Fuxiang felt uncomfortable in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it, and nodded reluctantly, "Master Hou can rest assured, the concubine will screen the marriageable women of the daughter's family tomorrow and hand them over to the son." ”

"Hmm." Wu Weihou nodded, "It's okay, if he chooses the best, if he doesn't choose, you will hand over the selected candidates to the crown princess, you also have some friendship with the crown princess, let her help each other......" When he said this, he suddenly remembered something, and immediately tightened his brows, "Ben Hou finally knows who Zi Chu looks like now?" ”

"Who does today's son look like?" Liu Fuxiang was stunned for a moment, looked at Wu Wei and asked.

Wu Weihou thought for a moment, but still replied to Liu Fuxiang, "Like the crown princess." ”

Liu Fuxiang was puzzled, and asked loudly, "What does Master Hou mean?" ”

Wu Weihou said, "Ben Hou is talking about temperament, Zi Chop's current temperament, behaving in a style, quite like the crown princess." ”

Liu Fuxiang was shocked, she had dealt with Hua Yan a few times, although she was not very familiar with Hua Yan's temperament and behavior, but she would never forget her means of pushing her into the water with a light smile.

She thought that the Hou Mansion sent countless people to look for Su Ziqi's whereabouts but couldn't find it, and later, Hua Yan entered Beijing, Su Zi had no news, she went to the East Palace to ask Hua Yan, and Hua Yan told him that Su Zi was safe, obviously, Su Zi and Hua Yan had an unusual friendship.

She asked, "How can the prince be like the crown princess?" Did Master Hou read it wrong? ”

"You'll find out when you see him." Wu Weihou shook his head, "He is my son, Ben Hou will not be mistaken." ”

Liu Fuxiang nodded, her heart was sour and astringent, she didn't dare to talk about Su Ziqi anymore, she was afraid that she would cry again all of a sudden, so she changed the topic and asked Wu Weihou, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really good?" Healed? ”

Wu Weihou twisted his eyebrows and said, "Speaking of this, Ben Hou also wondered. Obviously, all the imperial doctors and Dr. Sun of the Tai Hospital have diagnosed the pulse of the oil running out, but today I saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was very well all over the body, and he was obviously cured. It can only be said that Master Deyuan and the presiding abbot are outsiders. ”

Liu Fuxiang said in surprise, "I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has fallen into an evil spirit? So, Master Deyuan and the presiding abbot can communicate with ghosts and gods? ”

Wu Wei bowed, "That's about it, the two masters are worthy of their reputations." ”

Liu Fuxiang immediately said, "Another day, the concubine must go to the Qingshui Temple in Banbi Mountain to donate some sesame oil money, burn a few more incense, and bless the Hou Lord, the prince and our Hou Mansion." ”

Wu Weihou nodded, "Well, yes, Zi Qi is now in the court, with his temperament, it is better to burn more incense and ask the Buddha for blessing." ”

Liu Fuxiang stopped talking, calculating that one day would be good, go to Banbishan Qingshui Temple early to make incense, and be sure to donate a large amount of sesame oil money and light two ever-bright lanterns.

While the two were talking about Su Ziqi, the civil and military officials were also quietly talking about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Su Ziqi.

For His Royal Highness the Crown Prince when he was told that he was under witchcraft, and the evil entered the body, fortunately Su Zi saw through it, and Master Deyuan and the presiding abbot chanted for ten days, so that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince turned the corner, most of the ministers believed it very much. After all, all the imperial doctors and Dr. Sun in the Tai Hospital all checked the pulse and said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was terminally ill that day, the oil was exhausted, and the lamp was dry, and there was no ginseng for 500 years, and I am afraid that it would be incurable.

The emperor's list is still posted everywhere, and no one has contributed to the 500-year-old ginseng. The government and the opposition all felt that they were afraid that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was jealous of the talent and was about to fall, but they didn't expect that ten days later, they would miraculously get better, and they would be alive and well.

Most people believe that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the true Son of the Dragon, and God bless Hongfu.

But people with ulterior motives know that this is definitely not the case, but as for what it is, in the past ten days, there has not been a trace of news, whether it is the East Palace or the Imperial Palace, it is seamless to check, and even the chief eunuch and prince around the emperor don't know what the situation is.

Therefore, we can only wait and see what happens, but the result is that now, Yun Chi shocked the government and the opposition with his words early today.

The only breakthrough was at the city gate, where the soldiers defending the city saw Yun Chi returning from out of town in the middle of the night.

This news reached the ears of the commander, and he slapped the table and said, "It turns out that Yun Chi is no longer in the capital in the past ten days, but has gone to the north. He must have been because of the woman. ”

Yan Junshi stood behind the commander, and when he saw him smash the corner of the table with one palm, he immediately said, "Commander, hurt your hand carefully." ”

There was a black mist under the commander's eyes, his hand was cracked, and bright red blood fell to the ground, and he said fiercely, "I really underestimated Yun Chi, I originally thought that he broke into the Gu King Palace alone to save Lin'an Huayan regardless of Jiangshan Sheji, even if he knew that she was seriously injured in the Northland, he would not leave the capital at this time." I really didn't expect that he would dare to leave Beijing. ”

Yan Junshi said strangely, "The northern land is thousands of miles away from the capital, how did he get the news that Hua Yan was injured?" Based on the calculation of time, he should not have known so early to arrange the capital and rush to the north. ”

The commander snorted coldly and said fiercely, "Although the Yun family has worked hard for the Jiangshan Society for four hundred years, and has gradually abandoned the Yun clan's magic, there is also a little bit of inheritance in the bones, and it is about Yun Chi who sensed it. ”

Yan Junshi suddenly realized, "The Yun Clan's magic is really mysterious, but unfortunately, it can only be obtained by those who inherit Yunchi, it is really unique." ”

The Commander sneered, "Heaven has its own justice, so what can it do?" Possessing the art of defying the sky, once he moves recklessly, he will backlash, and he will be seriously injured at least and killed at worst. Huayan is looking for death, this time she didn't die, her fate is big. Sooner or later, I will let her die at my hands. This woman, who lives for a day, is a scourge. ”

"What the commander said is that this woman Huayan is too powerful, if she doesn't die, I'm afraid we won't succeed in our great cause." Yan Junshi nodded and asked tentatively, "This time, we have missed the best opportunity to attack the capital, and no one expected that the prince would play such a trick of cultivating the plank road and secretly Chen Cang, so that we were blinded by the fog barrier he set up. ”

The commander took a deep breath, "This time, because I have not been in the capital for a long time, under the tracking of the three forces of the East Palace, Su Ziqi, and the Hua family, in order to hide my whereabouts, I had to cut off contact with the capital, so I couldn't break through the obstacle under Yun Chi's pretending to be sick." When the words fell, he sneered, "However, there is no hurry, the days are still very long, I want to see, kill Huayan, Yun Chi can still jump for a few days." ”

Yan Junshi said, "I didn't kill Hua Yan this time, she is still alive, it depends on whether the Plum Blossom Seal Guard and the 100,000 soldiers and horses can ......."

In the middle of his words, an eagle bird rushed into the room and landed on the shoulders of the commander, the commander untied the letterhead on the eagle's leg, unfolded it, and immediately became furious, a pair of eyes almost spewed fire, and said murderously, "What a Lin'an Huazhuo, a good Lu Zhiling, wait for me to break them into ten thousand pieces." ”
