Chapter 145: Saving the Son
"Hehe, don't worry, when have you ever missed doing things for your father?"
After Prime Minister Leng finished speaking, he asked Leng Qingxiu again, and after confirming that Zhu Jiu would attend the celebration banquet in three days, he immediately called his personal secret guard and ordered a few words.
Leng Qingxiu only heard a word of assassination, and as for the rest, he didn't hear it clearly.
However, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, and when she left the study, she was in a rather happy mood.
In the troubled times, what if she was the first beauty in the imperial city? No one will remember her or mention her.
Only when a powerful woman like Zhu Jiu is in control of the lives of the people of the world will she be noticed and remembered forever.
Since she was sent under the city wall as a hostage, she saw it clearly, so she didn't fight with Zhu Jiu for these false names.
Directly replacing Zhu Jiu, replacing her position in the hearts of the people, and taking away everything she has, it is more interesting for her!
After a while, several black shadows quickly left the Prime Minister's Mansion and headed to Zhu Jiu's residence.
At this time, Zhu Jiu went to the street to buy two pots of wine and wanted to go to the Taixuan Temple in the west of the city.
It's just that there was an accident when buying wine, someone was rampage on the road, Zhu Jiu saw a child exposed to the horse's hooves and was about to be trampled to death, his heart tightened, and he hurriedly tried to save him.
A figure on the side of the road was one step faster than her, and hurriedly rushed over to save the boy, and the two rolled around in embarrassment before they could crash into the stall and stop.
During this period, the boy in coarse linen kept protecting the back of the boy's head with his hands, so that a large area of skin was rubbed off from his elbows, and red blood beads oozed out of the wound, which was extremely painful to watch.
Zhu Jiu breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward and said, "Are you okay?" ”
She handed out a handkerchief and took out the gold sore medicine, ready to bandage the man.
was pushed away by the young man, and hurriedly helped the child to look: "Are you okay?" ”
The little boy was dressed richly, obviously a child of a powerful family, who was rescued by him at this moment, pushed him away with a look of disgust, and scolded the few little guys who were late: "A bunch of waste! I can't even protect my son, what's the use of asking you? Kneel down for me and slap yourself in the mouth thirty times! When is the fight over, when will you go back to the Hou Mansion of Qinan! ”
The Marquis of Qinan is a hereditary title, and the Marquis once fought side by side with Zhu Jiu on the battlefield, and Zhu Jiu is also familiar with him.
It's just that how did the little duke of this marquis's family grow into such a gentleman? When I saw him in the past, he was still very knowledgeable about etiquette, knew how to advance and retreat, and even had a good foundation in literature.
The Marquis of Qinan didn't plan to let him go to the battlefield, so he asked for a favor from Emperor Yan and kept the little duke Zhao Xufeng at home. qδ
A group of little guys were so frightened that their faces turned pale, for fear that he would betray them, so they hurriedly did so, knelt on the ground and beat their mouths vigorously.
After a while, the faces of these people turned red.
Zhao Xufeng passed by Zhu Jiu expressionlessly, Zhu Jiu frowned slightly, and grabbed him: "Slow." ”
"General Zhu, is there something?"
Zhao Xufeng, who was only nine years old, raised his eyes and looked at Zhu Jiu with a look of disgust.
"Now that you know my identity, Xiao Shizi should understand that I am not easy to mess with, just now this son saved you, why didn't you even say thank you?"
It's not that she's willing to worry about children.
It's that this Zhao Xufeng has changed too much, and just now she also saw that the young man who saved him was none other than the staff she recruited yesterday, Jiang Cheng.
This time it was not that Xuanyuan Che deliberately directed and acted by himself, it was really a coincidence.
He originally heard that there was a batch of new goods in today's silk village, which were of high quality, light and soft, very warm, and if they were used as underwear, they could also make Zhu Jiu sleep better.
I heard that she has been running around in the military camp and the six departments in the past few days, and almost even the internal affairs have been handed over to her, if she doesn't deal with it, it will only make the people resentful, so Zhu Jiu has not slept well during this time.
Who ever thought that he came out of the silk village, in order to save people, the cloth was also crushed, and he also injured one arm.
Fortunately, fortunately, Fang Cai did not expose his martial arts in a hurry, otherwise Jiujiu would have been suspicious.
So after stepping forward to salute Zhu Jiu, he looked at Zhao Xufeng and said: "It turns out that the grass people saved the prince of the Hou Mansion of Qinan, since the prince is safe and sound, the general, let him go." ”
I saw that he was obviously in pain
grinning, but not caring about Zhao Xufeng's attitude at all, Zhu Jiu couldn't help patting Zhao Xufeng's head: "Since Mr. Jiang doesn't care about you, then General Ben won't let go of this matter." ”
"Then what are you following?"
Zhao Xufeng rolled his eyes, couldn't help but stop after taking two steps, and looked back at Zhu Jiu, who was following him.
There was also a plain-clothed young man who followed Zhu Jiu like a fart and picked up the broken silk on the ground.
He endured it for a while, and then said to Zhu Jiu with a cold face: "Fang Cai didn't ask him to save me, General Zhu, you'd better not take a mouse and meddle in your affairs!" ”
Zhu Jiu raised his eyebrows, as if he had determined him, not only was he not angry, but he smiled and said with a good temper: "General Ben is just helpful, let's go, Xiao Shizi, while it's still early, I'll send you home." ”
"Who asked you to send it? A rough man, vulgar and vulgar! ”
Zhao Xufeng was very disgusted and scolded her without concealing his disgust.
But a chill suddenly welled up from his body, and he subconsciously looked at the young man behind Zhu Jiu with his intuition.
I saw that the young man who was called "Mr. Jiang" by Zhu Jiu was staring at him with a cold face, which was completely different from the harmless and innocent scholar of Fang Cai.
He stared at him like a sharp sword, and he didn't know when he would kill him.
Zhao Xufeng felt a chill in his heart, didn't look at Zhu Jiu again, and hurriedly turned around and ran towards the Hou Mansion of Qinan.
Seeing that Zhu Jiu frowned and wanted to follow, Xuanyuan Che hurriedly stopped: "General, since Xiao Shizi doesn't appreciate it, let him go back, I heard that the Hou Mansion of Qinan is on this street, and there should be no accident." ”
"Look at that." Zhu Jiu didn't reply to him, but just pointed to the startled horse just now, but saw that the horse actually fell to the ground and twitched, foaming at the mouth and dying.
"If nothing else, this horse had an accident as early as when it crashed into Xiao Shizi, and someone deliberately wanted to kill Shizi."
Therefore, she proposed to send Xiao Shizi back to Qinanhou Mansion.
Xuanyuan Che's eyes narrowed slightly, "No wonder ......"
He said that at the foot of the imperial city, especially in the streets where nobles lived, how could there suddenly be a startled horse?
Recalling the information he had recently investigated, he thought thoughtfully: "I heard that the Marquis of Qi Nan is seriously ill, and the little prince will succeed to the throne soon, if the enemy makes a move, he will definitely not resort to such a means, and there are a lot of those little guys, but they are all late without exception, I am afraid that someone in the back house has done something." ”
Zhu Jiu grew up on the battlefield since she was a child, and she learned all about yang schemes, and she didn't know as much about these conspiracies and tricks as Xuanyuan Che.
I was quite surprised for a while: "In your opinion, this matter was done by someone from the Hou Mansion of Qinan?" ”
