The thrilling noise of the night naturally affected Renxintang, which was three streets away from the Honglu Inn.

That night, martial law was imposed in the capital, and when it was daytime, the officials of Jingzhao Mansion and the brown-clothed men of the city gate camp patrolled every street in three or five groups, shouting at five and six places, checking the pedestrians who came and went, and searching various merchants and shops along the way, making a lot of noise.

Lala's miscellaneous news was even more chaotic, one moment saying that the Honglu Inn had been burned, another saying that several envoys had died to congratulate the queen on her birthday, and another saying that an assassin had killed many people.

There is no conclusion, it only makes people more panicked, the people are closed one by one, and those who have to go out also walk around the yamen on the road.

In such a situation, Li Fu didn't let Li Jiaoer go out - the day before yesterday she was kidnapped, which made him have nightmares for the past two days.

But the father and daughter were not worried about the Karakuri Pavilion, so Zheng Xiaoxi volunteered to go to the Karakuri Pavilion, but on the way to the tea kung fu, Zheng Xiaoxi came back in about an hour, followed by the people from the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, and saw him enter the Renxin Hall, and came in to search again before leaving.

Fortunately, they knew that this was the maiden home of Mrs. Hou Shizi of Anyang, so they didn't destroy or take anything away.

Li Fu didn't close the store, he only asked about the safety of the Karakura Pavilion, and he sighed for a long time, and his emotion was not very peaceful.

"Last time there was such chaos, it was you...... When something happened to the father and brother. Li Fu said.

He wanted to say "your father-in-law and uncle", but after thinking about it, he hurriedly changed his words.

Li Jiao'er intuitively felt that what happened in the inn last night was inextricably linked with her and the treasure in her palm, and she was full of sorrow in her heart, but it was not good to say it to Li Fuming, so she only followed her father's words with a strong spirit:

"Dad, don't worry, let's have a clear conscience, just close the door and live our own lives, there will be no big deals."

Li Fu was still worried.

Unlike Li Jiaoer's maternal grandfather's family has been in Dazhao and started in Sixing, his family practiced medicine for generations in the previous dynasty, and the world was in turmoil after the end, and the old ones were occupied by indiscriminate killers.

Li Fu was born in the mountains, and at the age of twelve, he went against the wishes of the clan and joined the Zhao alone, and has lived since then.

Compared with the daughter who was born in Taiping, Li Fu, who has seen the turbulent times outside, knows that since the beginning of the Zhao army, there have been six generations of people under their jurisdiction to be peaceful, and the scene of all the people returning to their hearts is indeed a situation that can win the Central Plains.

However, the situation is not a foregone conclusion, and if the world is not unified one day, then the peace in front of us may fall at any time.

But since ancient times, the more certain times we get, the more likely it is to have chaos.

He rarely talked to his daughter about the troubled times outside, and the same is true today, not to mention that Li Jiaoer is still worried about reconciliation and separation, and he doesn't want to scare her.

So, Li Fu also forced a smile and said, "Will the prince really come today?" ”

Li Jiao'er nodded.

"He'll come, even for the sake of the palm of his hand. Dad, don't quarrel with him when he's coming, just let him come to the backyard. She reassured.

"I know." Li Fu also comforted his daughter, "You go to the back to rest first, I'll call you if there's something." ”

"Yes."

*

Although it is not peaceful today, the weather is very good, the sun is warm and windy, neither cold nor hot.

Li Jiao'er sat in front of the stone table in the corner of the courtyard, put the treasure in her palm on the stone table, and stared at it in a daze.

After a while, Yun Tuan hugged two pots of white peonies that had not opened and were not very magnificent, and saw her sitting in a daze in the shade, put down the flowers, and said, "Why is Miss sitting here?" The wind blew again. ”

Li Jiaoer came back to her senses, looked at the two pots of flowers and asked, "What are you doing with them?" ”

"The sixth brother asked me to take these peonies out to bask in the sun." Yuntuan put down the flowers, went to bring tea to Li Jiao'er, and continued to move the flowers, and said to Li Jiao'er, "The master doesn't know what new medicine to use Danpi to research, and it has to be planted by himself, so it's not troublesome." ”

When Li Jiao'er saw the peony, she suddenly remembered Xue Zhen and laughed unconsciously.

"What are you laughing at?" After Yuntuan finished moving the flowers, he also poured a cup of tea and asked her.

"If the prince of the world knows that we have raised peonies, they are going to be used in medicine, and I don't know how to frown." Li Jiaoer said with a smile.

Yun Tuan pouted: "There are too many people who use peonies in vegetables and medicine, and he doesn't like it, so he tore up all the medicine books." ”

She looked at Li Jiaoer as she spoke: "Miss, are you worried?" ”

This is the first time in these days that the young lady has taken the initiative to mention the son.

Li Jiao'er nodded calmly and said, "I'm worried that he will ...... today." It's not coming. ”

"How so?" Yun Tuan looked at the time, it was close to noon, but Xue Zhen still didn't come, and he didn't know the bottom of his heart, so he still comforted her, "The prince of the world is always going to come to fetch the baby, if he comes...... It's not going to break its promise, is it? ”

Li Jiao'er let out a long sigh, raised her hand and stroked the more delicately carved phoenix on the lid of the treasure box in her palm.

"The Queen Mother is a very kind person." She said suddenly.

"Huh?" Yun Tuan didn't understand why she thought of the queen, and looked at her ignorantly.

"I follow the county lord to the palace several times a year, and the queen always asks me to sit next to her and talk to me with a smile." Li Jiaoer thought about the appearance of Empress Zhan today, "Actually, it's not just me, no matter whose daughter it is, the queen is very gentle to them." ”

When I see peonies, I always think of the national color and fragrance, and thus think of the gentle woman who loves to embroider peonies on her dress.

She sighed in her heart: "I still don't understand why people like her are not liked." But today, I finally got it. ”

Yun Tuan listened quietly, and when she sighed this sentence, she realized that she was moved, and hurriedly persuaded in a low voice:

"Miss, I can't talk about it."

Now the outside is full of people from the yamen who catch assassins, and it will be bad if they are heard.

Li Jiao'er smiled bitterly: "What I know, it's just ...... I guess I have a kinship. ”

Between the current queen and the emperor, there was still a deep affection between the emperor and the queen in the past, but in the time after His Majesty ascended the throne, the relationship gradually faded.

faded to the present, and the hatred can't be eliminated quickly.

If you don't like it, you don't like it, so why talk about "why?" ”

The master and servant sat in the small courtyard, sighing for a long time.

And before the main entrance, Xue Zhen, who had not closed his eyes so far, stood under the plaque of Renxin Hall.

The strong aroma of the medicine aroused Xue Zhen's faint nausea, making him slow down when he walked to the door.

At this moment, Zheng Xiaoxi was sorting out a few prescriptions at the counter, looked up and saw him standing outside the door, quite surprised, and turned his head to Li Fu, who was reading the medical book there: "Master, son." ”

Li Fu, who had a nightmare for two days, immediately sank his face, but he didn't hear it, didn't get up, and just continued to read.

Zheng Xiaoxi greeted him, arched his hand, and said without humility or arrogance: "Shizi." ”

Xue Zhen bowed his head at Zheng Xiaoxi, and then stepped into the Renxin Hall.
