Concubine, she rises step by step

The next day, the sky was just slightly bright.

Nalan walked in as fast as the wind, "Sir, I found it!"

Huo Jiheng put down the dagger he was holding and asked with a happy expression, "Where is it?"

Nalan replied: "The other courtyard in the south of the city!"

Huo Jiheng couldn't help but clapped his hands and sighed: "Okay!"

Then, he told Zhixia: "Zhixia, Nalan and I are going out to do some errands. Madam is awake. Just tell her."

Zhixia held the bird's nest and froze on the spot, and could only reply in a daze: "Yes."

Riding a horse, galloping away.

Soon, they arrived at the other courtyard.

Looking at the door of the other courtyard, Huo Jiheng couldn't help but said: "This Miss Zhuo is really hard to find."

Nalan agreed: "Yes, the investigators said that Miss Zhuo has a very strong temperament."

Huo Jiheng took it to heart and loved to deal with people who were genuine.

Then, Nalan knocked on the door.

"Knock knock knock!"

After waiting for a long time, there was still no movement inside the door.

Huo Jiheng looked around in confusion, "You're not here, are you?"

Nalan frowned slightly, "It shouldn't be, I just said it was still there."

As he spoke, Nalan jumped onto the wall.

By chance, Zhuo Ran was standing in the courtyard, sitting steadily.

Looking at Nalan standing on the wall, Zhuoran leisurely picked up a cup of tea and said lightly: "Master Nalan, isn't your behavior not very good..."

Nalan immediately turned ugly and turned over.

Huo Jiheng's expression paused, but Miss Zhuo was able to keep her composure.

After that, the door slowly opened.

Meng'er said: "Your Majesty, please come in! Lord Nalan, please come in!"

At this time, Zhuo Ran was pouring tea on the tea table.

"Your Majesty, can you get used to drinking this poor tea from the common girl?" Zhuo Ran did not stand up. He seemed to have a unique temperament.

Huo Jiheng's heart moved and he couldn't help but said with interest: "I have always felt that tea products are different and each has its own taste."

Zhuo Ran watched Huo Jiheng sit down and handed over the tea.

"Your Majesty!" Nalan reminded urgently.

Zhuo Ran looked at Nalan and asked, "Master Nalan, are you worried that the tea is poisonous?" As he said this, he slowly moved the tea to Nalan's lips.

In an instant, the fragrance of tea dispersed, and the extraordinary brown pupils invaded the depths of my heart...

Zhuo Ran was seen looking at Nalan Shankun, slightly opening his lips, and drinking the tea soup bit by bit.

Until the tea cup stood upside down and there was no more drop of tea soup.

"Lord Nalan, are you relieved?" Zhuo Ran said with a half-smile.

Nalan felt an uncontrollable swallowing in his throat.

Huo Jiheng also praised: "As expected of Miss Zhuo! I will bring some tea and wine to give you a toast!" After saying that, he raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.

Only then did Zhuo Ran sit down again.

"Just now, I was the one who was abrupt! Did Miss Zhuo know that I was coming?" Huo Jiheng looked at the very calm Zhuo Ran with a look of appreciation on his face.

Zhuoran replied calmly: "The emperor is about to turn the entire Yuzhou upside down, how can the civilian girls not know?"

These remarks made Huo Jiheng even more convinced of the importance of the Zhuo family's intelligence network, so he said bluntly: "It seems that the Zhuo family's dark network is really good!"

Zhuoran said nothing.

Huo Jiheng didn't realize that Zhuo Ran had a bad temper, but his voice was a bit casual, "I want the Zhuo family's information network, including the established institutions, existing procedures and channels, and existing information! As for the conditions, Miss Zhuo can provide it! "

Facing Huo Jiheng's "acquisition plan" with generous conditions, Zhuo Ran laughed out loud.

Huo Jiheng was confused for a moment, "What does Miss Zhuo mean?"

Zhuo Ran smiled with tears in his eyes and asked in a voice: "Conditions? What conditions can you give me? The 95 members of my Zhuo family have been wronged. What conditions do you think can match it, Your Majesty?"

After some questioning, Huo Jiheng looked unhappy, but he was still unhappy, things still had to be done, and conditions still had to be negotiated.

"Since Miss Zhuo expected us to come and is willing to treat you with tea, I think there should be room for negotiation on this matter." Huo Jiheng asked patiently.

After a long time, Zhuo Ran said sadly: "The emperor is smart, so naturally there is nothing we can do about this matter."

So Huo Jiheng listened.

Zhuo Ran stared at Huo Jiheng word by word and said, "The condition of the civilian girl is to kill Suo San! Clear the name of the Zhuo family!"

Nalan's expression was shocked, this Miss Zhuo really dared to mention it!

Afterwards, Huo Jiheng looked at the eldest daughter of the Zhuo family faintly.

"Do you know who Master Suo is?" Huo Jiheng asked.

Zhuo Ran said indifferently: "Murderer!"

Huo Jiheng didn't want to deceive her, "Suo San's foundation is too deep. If we touch him rashly, it will only be counterproductive and may cause greater fluctuations. However, since you have brought it up, I can promise you that given time, Suo San will be removed!" "

Zhuo Ran seemed to have heard a joke, "Your Majesty, are you really good at talking? What time is it? The daughter of the people has only one condition. If Suo San is killed within three days, the daughter of the people will definitely give up all the hard work of the Zhuo family over the years. !”

Huo Jiheng has never encountered such force, let alone a woman!
"Although I am the emperor, I cannot kill anyone without any basis. But precisely because I am the emperor, it is my unshirkable responsibility to eliminate harm for the people! You believe me, as long as Suo San is wrong, find out After that, I will definitely clear the Zhuo family's name!" Huo Jiheng solemnly promised, this was the most truthful answer he could give.

However, he underestimated the determination of a woman who wanted to avenge her father. Zhuo Ran said categorically again: "The daughter of the people has said that there is only one condition for the daughter of the people. If Suo San is killed within three days, the daughter of the people will definitely kill Zhuo." The family’s hard work over the years is given away!”

Huo Jiheng:......

Nalan admired Miss Zhuo's determination, but also felt a little sorry for Miss Zhuo's lack of flexibility, so he said: "Miss Zhuo, please rest assured, the emperor will definitely not break his promise."

Zhuoran didn't change his expression, nor did he soften his temper. Then, he stood up.

"Your Majesty, Lord Nalan, since you haven't thought about it yet, wait until you think about it before negotiating!" Zhuo Ran actually issued an order to expel guests. You know, looking at the entire Daikin, no one has dared to do this!
Nalan immediately said: "How outrageous! Miss Zhuo, the emperor respects the Zhuo family, that's why he is so pious in persuading you. You should also stop in moderation!"

Zhuoran obviously had no intention of lowering his head. Facing Nalan's gaze, Xu looked at Huo Jiheng and said straightly: "What? Is it possible that the emperor can still kill the civilian girl, and can't he snatch it away?"

The words fell to the ground with a clank, like a female general fighting for her father on the battlefield!

Huo Jiheng was deeply touched and immediately stood up and looked at Zhuo Ran with spontaneous respect, "Then don't bother Miss Zhuo!"

"Meng'er! See off the guests!" Zhuo Ran ordered solemnly.

Huo Jiheng looked at Zhuo Ran and whispered: "Nalan! Go back!"

Watching Huo Jiheng and Nalan leave, Meng'er was so frightened that her heart almost burst out of her chest. She hurriedly said to the eldest lady: "Eldest lady, he is the emperor. Didn't you block the only road?"

I saw that Zhuo Ran had lost three points of his concentration, and Meng'er held him back, "Now, I can only pray that my father will be wise, and bless the things that the Zhuo family has accumulated over the past century, so that the emperor can step here again!"
