Ji Tang

Chapter 280
Just as the proceedings in the court were finished, Lao Zheng, who had been sent by Ji's mother to inquire about the news outside the palace gate, saw Li Gang coming out and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

When Li Gang saw that it was the chief steward of Hao Jinghou Mansion, he immediately knew his purpose and told Lao Zheng the news about Ji Song with a smile.

Lao Zheng was overjoyed when he heard that his Marquis was not only safe but also had made great achievements. He quickly thanked Li Gang, mounted his horse and galloped towards the Haoren Marquis Mansion.

In the front hall of the Hou Mansion, Ji's mother walked back and forth uneasily, constantly looking outside, as if she was waiting for someone.

Xiaozhu also kept looking outside. Thinking of the way his wife cried with joy when she heard the news about Lord Marquis, he felt his eyes were a little sour.

After the Marquis went to the battlefield, my wife got up very early every day to pray for the Marquis. Sometimes she went to Buddhist temples and Taoist temples to offer incense, and did not go to bed until very late.

In this way, I couldn't sleep well at night, and I woke up many times in my dreams.

Seeing that Madam was losing weight during the day, she and the housekeeper tried to persuade her many times, but to no avail. In the end, they had to leave her alone. They could only try their best to make nutritious meals so that Madam could eat well.

But after hearing the news about the Marquis, Madam suddenly seemed to be energetic. She originally ate very little, but this time she actually ate two bowls of rice.

Then she sent the housekeeper to wait for news outside the palace in person, while she began to check the Marquis's room and asked people to take out some things to dry them, saying that it was moldy.

Xiaozhu could only hold his forehead and smile bitterly. These things were exposed in the sun yesterday, how could they become moldy?

But seeing that Madam was happy, she didn't stop her.

Until then, the entire Hou Mansion seemed to be alive, with laughter and laughter everywhere, and the footsteps of the people under the maid were much lighter.

The guards who came up from Zhuangzi immediately became energetic, picked up the guy, and patrolled back and forth in the Marquis Mansion.

In fact, it's not their fault that they were like this. They didn't realize it when the Marquis was here, but after Ji Song left, the entire Hao Jiehou Mansion seemed to have lost its backbone, as if it had lost its energy and energy, and had no energy to do anything. .

There is also Rhubarb, which has been in a state of decline since Lord Marquis left. His body, which was originally a little fat, has also lost weight visibly, and he no longer plays with his favorite big bones.

The lady said that Dahuang missed the Marquis. Every day Dahuang would stay in the Marquis' room for a while. When it was getting dark, he would squat at the gate of the Marquis's mansion, as if waiting for something.

It wasn't until the housekeeper was about to close the door that he lowered his head and returned to his nest to lie still.

Now he seemed to feel the changes in his home, so he stood up and sniffed here and there, as if he was looking for something.

When he saw the master's room, which had not been opened for a long time, his eyes lit up and he immediately ran in. However, when he saw the empty room, he ran out disappointedly.

He just lay down at the door of the master room and refused to leave even if no one called him. Even if the wife came, he wouldn't pay attention to him. So he had no choice but to let him go.

"Great joy, great joy!"

"The Marquis raided the Turkic royal court and beheaded tens of thousands of people, captured Jieli, and the Turks were defeated!"

When Mother Ji heard Lao Zheng's cry, she couldn't help crying anymore. She was so frightened these days that she was woken up by nightmares every midnight!
I saw a doctor and he said he was overthinking and needed to rest.

But her son was fighting with the brutal Turks outside, so how could she calm down?

Now that she heard that her son was not only fine, but had also made great achievements, her tense spirit instantly relaxed, and she collapsed to the ground.

"Ma'am, ma'am, what's the matter with you?"

Xiaozhu had quick hands and quick eyes, and when he saw that the lady was not doing something right, he immediately supported her. When Lao Zheng saw the lady like this when he arrived, he immediately ran outside as fast as possible.

He was still shouting: "Go and call a doctor quickly, quickly, quickly. If it's too late, I'll see if I don't peel off your skin."

"Immediately go and invite Princess Pingyang, saying that Madam has fainted." Old Zheng was still sober at this time, and he knew that even though he was the housekeeper, there were some things he couldn't make the decision on.

So I planned to invite the eldest princess Pingyang. As the aunt of the Marquis and the wife's sworn sister, there is no one in charge of the family now, so her arrival is just the right time.

"Okay, you watch at home, I'll go right away. If anyone dares to talk nonsense, he will be killed on the spot." Ji Lu, as the commander of the Marquis' personal bodyguard, is the last defense force of the Marquis' mansion. Who dares not to listen to his words?

Dahuang seemed to have noticed something at this time. When he saw Mother Ji falling to the ground, he stood up and quickly came to Mother Ji, grinning and roaring at everyone.

It wasn't until Mother Ji was helped into the room by the maids that she squatted at the door. Anyone she didn't know was hissing, so that the servants didn't dare to come forward.

"Good Dahuang, if someone dares to make trouble, you go up and bite him, you know?" Xiaozhu couldn't help laughing when he saw Dahuang's actions.

Dahuang would not be allowed to be touched by anyone except his wife and the Marquis. She did not dare to touch him, so she could only give Dahuang an encouraging look.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

Hearing Dahuang's cry, as if in agreement, Xiaozhu laughed again.

But thinking about her wife fainting and no one in charge in the house, she felt flustered.

"Master Hou, please come back quickly!" Xiaozhu looked to the north and murmured.

Pingyang was shocked when she saw Ji Lu. As the commander of her nephew's bodyguard, how could she not recognize him? However, Ji Lu might be in a hurry on the road at this time and was a little embarrassed.

"What's going on? Why is it in such a mess? Does anyone dare to do harm to the Marquis Mansion?" Pingyang suddenly burst out with the power of the handsome lady on the battlefield.

Akatsuki Ji Lu was very courageous, and he couldn't bear it at this time. Only then did he remember that this princess was not a flower kept in a boudoir.

That was the commander-in-chief who led hundreds of thousands of warriors to fight on the battlefield, and she was no ordinary woman.

Ji Lu calmed down and said urgently: "Reply to the princess, Madam has fainted. There is no one in charge of the house now. Please go over and have a look!"

"What?" Pingyang was shocked, he didn't expect it to be like this.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Pingyang's eyebrows were raised, showing his own power.

Ji Lu didn't dare to hide anything. He told the story of how his wife fainted after learning the news about the Marquis. She didn't dare to hide anything.

"go!"

Pingyang said directly without any nonsense.

The two of them rode towards the Hou Mansion without taking anyone else with them.

At this time, Lao Zheng has invited a doctor and is now diagnosing the pulse!

At this moment, he heard a noise outside, and he immediately became furious.Who is so bold?Dare you come to cause trouble at this time?Don’t want to live anymore?

But when he saw who was coming, he was immediately overjoyed and stepped forward and said: "Princess, you are finally here!"

He couldn't help but not be anxious. If something really happened to the madam, the Marquis would go crazy, and he would have no choice but to wipe his neck to get away with it!
As the eldest princess, as the wife and sister, and the elder of the Marquis, it is a good time to temporarily take charge of the affairs of the Marquis Mansion, and no one can say anything.

"Stop talking nonsense and take me in quickly." Pingyang waved his hand and said impatiently.
