The Ji family's house.

Ji Xiaowu burst into tears while stuffing the cake into his mouth.

"Woo, it's still delicious to make a hair cake made by my mother, but I miss it!"

Mrs. Ji was distressed: "How many pieces of hair cake, can you use this?" Eat slowly, you'll have to eat later! ”

Ji Xiaowu said: "No! I'm going to eat all-you-can-eat! ”

Mrs. Ji is angry and funny.

Dong hugged his son and said with a smile: "Uncle has suffered a lot this time, look, he has lost so much weight." Ming'er, after you go to Xuandu to worship the master, come back from leave to live for a while, and make up for it. ”

"Yes, yes!" Mrs. Ji said repeatedly, "You and Xiao Qi both make up for it." Hey, what about Xiao Qi? ”

"Said I was too sleepy, and went back to sleep."

"Hey! This kid, I've eaten and then gone to sleep! ”

Ji Xiaowu took the time to say, "Mother, you don't care about her." She, who slept all the way, didn't know why she was so sleepy. ”

"This is too tired...... Mrs. Ji suddenly paused and asked him, "You said your cousin wants to sleep every day?" How long has it been? ”

Ji Xiaowu thought for a while: "How many months? ”

Mrs. Ji was shocked, and asked again: "His Royal Highness King Yue has been with you all the time?" ”

"That's right! He picked us up! ”

Mrs. Ji and Dong glanced at each other and saw fright in each other's eyes.

"Mother, I'll take a look." Dong did it when he thought of it, handed over his son to his mother-in-law, and hurried to see if Mingwei had woken up.

……

Mingwei slept until night in one breath and got up to eat dinner.

Only then did I know what my aunt and cousin-in-law had made up in their brains, and they also dragged Duofu to interrogate for a long time.

She smiled and patiently explained to them: "There is no such thing, it's just that this trip is hurt, and the spirit is not good." I started to get sleepy, it was before winter, if that was the case, I wouldn't see it now? ”

The two women carefully counted the dates, and then breathed a sigh of relief. Mrs. Ji complained: "This little five, he can't speak clearly!" ”

Dong said: "Cousin, even if it's not, you should get married, right?" This year has passed, you are twenty years old, and there is no girl who has dragged on to this age. ”

Mrs. Ji agreed: "That is, if you weren't engaged, others wouldn't know what to say." ”

Twenty years old, a real old girl. If she is single at this time, I am afraid that those matchmakers will dare to come over and say hello.

After all, in the eyes of the world, the most valuable thing for a woman is "youth", and she is worthless when she is old.

Who cares what kind of person she is?

Ming smiled and said: "I was about to say it, but I was taken away this time, and I was ordered by his wife, I don't know if the Holy Lord will allow it." ”

As he was talking, Duo Fulai said, "Miss, Mr. Hou asks to see you." ”

Mingwei confessed and went to see Hou Liang first.

As soon as Hou Liang came in, he said, "Miss Ming, it's not good!" His Highness is in prison. ”

Ming Wei twisted his eyebrows and said, "He ran out like this for a year, and he also went to the northwest, and it is normal for the emperor to be angry." Now, is there something hidden in it? ”

Hou Liang was so anxious that he sweated on his forehead: "The little one originally thought so, but when I received the news, I realized that the situation was wrong." Miss Ming, let's go to Imperial Treasure Zhai! ”

Tell her to go to Yubaozhai, so the person who passed the message is either Fu Jin or Guo Xu, and she really can't ignore it.

Mingwei immediately packed up and quietly went out the back door.

In the Imperial Treasure Zhai, these two are actually there.

Ming Wei took off his cloak and asked, "Mr. Fu, Guo Xiangye, why are you two free today?" ”

"If you don't have time, you have to be free." Guo Xu said, "Your Highness is in danger. ”

Mingwei looked at him with a serious expression, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Is there an inside story here?" Isn't the emperor going to be angry? ”

Guo Xu shook his head: "There is a news that has not yet been announced. ”

"What?"

"The Chu army is attacking at night, and it may be going to war."

Mingwei was taken aback: "What's going on?" Shouldn't Nanchu be messing around at the moment? Who will move the troops? ”

Fu Jin took out a stack of papers and handed it to her: "This is the intelligence of the Chu State in the past year, you can take a look." ”

Mingwei took it and looked through them one by one.

This information, sorted out by date, clearly shows the changes in the situation in the Chu State.

At the end of June, Tang Luo, the son of the Acting Prince, returned to Nan'an to Chengjue.

In July, Tang Luo alleged that Tang Shao led the thief into the house, and Tang Jing's death was inseparable from him, and in order to show repentance, he should go to guard his father's grave.

and then a series of blows, which were actually to squeeze Tang Shao out of the Tang family.

In the end, Tang Shao couldn't bear it anymore and turned against him.

Tang Luo has military power in hand, and has the support of Mrs. Tang, and he is a legitimate acting prince, so it stands to reason that Tang Shao has no chance of winning at all.

However, I don't know what Tang Shao did, the Emperor of Southern Chu was actually on his side.

So a bloody clean-up finally ended with Tang Luo's defeat.

Tang Luo returned to the barracks, originally wanting to compete with Tang Shao on this basis.

As a result, he fell for Tang Shao's plan, failed completely, and lost his life.

As soon as this incident came out, the Tang family was in an uproar.

Tang Shao cleaned up the Tang family with iron and blood, and finally became the new head of the Tang family.

Mingwei couldn't believe it: "What's the secret in this?" The Southern Chu royal family got the help of the Star Palace, and the Tang family was weak, why did this Tang Luo compete with Tang Shao? Is this a brother or an enemy? ”

Fu Jin said slowly: "Outsiders see them as brothers, and in their own eyes, they may be enemies." There is indeed a secret in this, but our spies have not been able to find out such a detailed inside story. ”

"And Tang Shao is also weird. Even if he resisted, he joined forces with the Emperor of Southern Chu? and killed Tang Luo and cleaned up the Tang family, his temperament is not so cruel! ”

Mingwei was puzzled. According to her observation during this time, Tang Shao has a deep affection for the Tang family, otherwise he can do it when Tang Luo has not returned.

"So, there's something hidden here." Fu Jin looked at her and said, "I don't know how deeply Miss Ming had a relationship with Tang Shao during that time, but now, you'd better treat him as a stranger." What he has done in the past six months is difficult to figure out with common sense, I am afraid that his personality has changed greatly. ”

Mingwei was silent for a long time and nodded.

"One more point," she said, "there is no civil strife in Qi now, why did Tang Shao start a war?" His personality has changed drastically, and this truth should always be understood. ”

Let's just say that, now that the war starts, Qi has a greater chance of winning, isn't Tang Shao sending people to the door?

Guo Xu spoke: "It's not clear about this matter yet, the Chu army's night attack is just a guard station. But when the war is together, can't it be taken lightly? ”

"Then what does this matter have to do with His Highness's imprisonment?"

Guo Xu said: "His Royal Highness has made great contributions in the northwest, and if the war is together, it is an opportunity to fish in troubled waters." And the Holy ......," he paused and said, "there may not be much time left, and he must clear all possible threats before he dies to ensure that King An ascends the throne smoothly." ”
