Chapter 198: The Horse

From childhood to adulthood, Huo Roufeng has the gas to get up, today she opened her eyes and saw that it was almost noon, so she was unhappy, she vaguely remembered that Zhanhuai wanted to invite her to go to Lao Cangzhou to eat sheep intestines, even if Lao Cangzhou may have Su Qian's watch, but people can buy it and take it to the carriage to eat.

No one woke her up!

Huo Roufeng was rolling around on the kang, the little leaves and small branches coaxed, she still didn't follow, and the little girl who was waiting under the porch heard the movement inside, and rushed to call Cai Qin over.

As soon as Cai Qin entered the door, without saying a word, Huo Roufeng was taken out of the quilt, and the little girls were dressed in clothes, washed their faces, and had a cup of tea, and Huo Jiuye sat neatly and neatly at the kang table for lunch.

The two little girls who went to send a message to Cai Qin just now secretly admired that Sister Cai Qin was too powerful.

Huo Jiuye was the time to grow his body, although Mrs. Huo went to Yongfeng, but the Huo family's lunch was never settled, a pot of steaming red braised mutton was served, Huo Roufeng asked, "No meat buns?" ”

The mother-in-law in the small kitchen hurriedly laughed and said: "There is meat simmering on the stove, the ninth master wants to eat meat sandwich buns, and the slave maid will send it to you." ”

Huo Roufeng pointed to the pot of red stewed mutton and said, "Together with this, send it to Gaosheng Hutong, no, I'll send it over, prepare the car!" ”

After speaking, she was about to get off the kang, she hated eating alone the most, her sister was not at home, her fox friends and dog friends were going to school, she simply went to Zhanhuai to eat together.

Zhan Huai was not in Gaosheng Hutong, at this moment, he was sitting in a deserted teahouse with Zhan Yu, who was also disguised.

Zhan Yu was wearing a half-new blue cotton robe, and he was dressed like a poor student who came to the capital to take the exam, but it was difficult to hide his noble atmosphere.

Zhan Yu was also looking at Zhan Huai in front of him, if he hadn't made an appointment a long time ago, he wouldn't even dare to recognize each other when he walked on the street, he hadn't seen him for a few years, the naughty little fifth brother had grown into a handsome young man, two or three inches taller than him, and his bronzed skin looked like it was on the sea, but under Yingting's eyebrows, those big eyes were as clear as when he was a child.

"How many times have you been out of the boat?" Zhanyu asked.

In the mouth of the exhibitors, the ship is to go to sea to fight a sea battle.

Zhanhuai puffed up his chest: "Ten times, the last time I beat Maori Shin and fled to Ryukyu Island." ”

A look of approval appeared in Zhan Yu's eyes, and he smiled: "Good boy, I didn't embarrass the Zhan family!" ”

Speaking of this, a touch of loneliness was added to his face, there are five brothers, only he is far away in the capital, if the Zhan family doesn't go to war, what kind of Zhan family is it?

Zhanhuai pretended not to see the second brother's expression, he said with a smile: "This time the eldest brother was originally going to come over, but my father wanted to pretend to be sick, the eldest brother had to handle government affairs instead of my father, and the third brother wanted to receive officials from all over the world, and I was an idler at home, so I was asked to come to the capital." ”

Hearing this, Zhan Yu smiled secretly in his heart, you are a baby bump born to your mother in her thirties, the situation in the capital is so complicated, how can you rest assured that you will run over alone? Eight or nine times out of ten, you sneaked out, and your father and eldest brother found out that they had no choice but to push the boat down the river.

Otherwise, the eldest brother would not have told you to take good care of you in the letter.

Looking at the little brother's high-spirited expression, Zhan Yu didn't pierce him, but just asked, "Which inn do you live in, is it safe?" ”

Zhan Huai hurriedly said: "I live in a friend's house, it is absolutely safe, second brother, don't worry." ”

"Friends? Do you have friends in the capital? What is the last name? Is it our family's family friend? Zhan Yu quickly thought about a few families in the capital that had a relationship with the Zhan family, and there were also teenagers of the same age as Zhan Huai in these families, but Zhan Huai had never been to the capital, so he shouldn't know them, and he couldn't be called friends.

Zhanhuai didn't want to hide it, and he didn't have to hide Xiao Jiu's affairs from the second brother, he said: "It's not our family's family friend, second brother, you think you have heard about the Huo family who donated 100,000 taels of military expenses a while ago in the capital, I just live in the Huo family's house." ”

Zhan Yu was taken aback and asked, "The Huo family of the Yongfeng?" From Hangzhou? How do you know them? Is your friend Huo Jiu? ”

Stained with the light of Peng Chengbofu and Guo Yong, there are few people in the capital who don't know the Yongfeng Huo family, and the Huo family only has two sisters and brothers, and the elder sister is a woman who has not been out of the cabinet for two years, so the friend Zhanhuai said can only be the only male in the Huo family, Ding Huo Jiu.

Hearing Huo Jiu's words, the corners of Zhanhuai's mouth curved upwards in a good-looking arc, and there was a smile in his eyes that couldn't be hidden: "My friend is Huo Jiu, and the place where I live is a house of the Huo family in Gaosheng Hutong." ”

Zhan Yu smiled and shook his head, and said to Zhan Huai: "I thought you had grown up, but I didn't expect to go around the barracks and still play with some children, I heard that Huo Jiu was only ten years old." ”

"Eleven, the New Year will be twelve." Zhanhuai hurriedly corrected it, he didn't know why, he just didn't want others to say that Huo Jiu was still young.

Zhan Yu was helpless, and asked about the family again, and then said: "After receiving the letter from the eldest brother and you, I asked people to secretly investigate, and the matter of my father's injury was sent over ten days ago, but it was suppressed by the cabinet. ”

There is only one person in the cabinet who can suppress the folds from all over the country.

"Guo Yong?" Zhanhuai asked.

Zhan Yu said: "There are not only Guo Yong's people in the cabinet, but also the Queen Mother's people, but now it seems that the two groups of people don't want this matter to get out, hehe, they are really all afraid of our family." ”

Zhan Huai said coldly: "They won't give up this time, if it doesn't work once, there will be a next time, but I don't know when." ”

Zhan Huai's mind came back to the death of the stand-in, and he clenched his fists.

If it weren't for that stand-in, the person who died that day would have been his father, the father he had looked up to since childhood.

Zhan Yu also thought of this, and he said in a deep voice: "I have asked the princess to enter the palace once in the past two days to probe the queen mother's thoughts, you can stay at ease for a while, and wait until the princess has news before making a decision." ”

Hearing Zhan Yu mention the princess, Zhan Huai frowned and asked, "Did the second brother tell the princess about the attack on his father?" ”

When Zhanyu entered Beijing, he was still a child, and when he knew that his second brother was going to marry a daughter-in-law, he thought it was a happy event, but there was no trace of joy on the faces of the family, and he even saw his mother's eyes crying like peaches.

Later, he gradually understood that the second brother was not married, but went to be a hostage, and the second brother might not be able to return to Fujian alive.

Since then, the word princess has been deeply rooted in his heart, and like all the people in the Zhan family, he has never regarded the princess as his second sister-in-law, nor as the Zhan family.
