Poisonous girl to marry
Chapter 106 Chapter 108~109 Collected Rebellion
Chapter 106 Chapter [-]~[-] Collected Rebellion
Jiang Wu knew what she was thinking, and Huo Shijiu actually knew it long ago, but what he did for her mother and sister, he would not stop doing it just because the other party refused to accept it.This may be the same character between him and her. As long as he decides to do something for others, he will try his best no matter whether he can get gratitude and reward.
Jiang Wu looked at Huo Jiujiu's eyes gradually softened, and Huo Shijiu's heart was full of joy, she looked away childishly, and coughed: "Hurry up, what are you waiting for here?"
Jiang Wu laughed, and happily pinched Huo Jiujiu's face. His skin was healthy and smooth, and he felt very good. "Then I'll go. Don't miss me, beauties." Then when Huo Jiujiu was stunned, Shaking the sandalwood fan, he went out with a smile.
Huo Jiujiu looked at her back, and shook his head with a smile after a long time.He ordered the servant girl to add two more lamps, and asked Sixi to go to Baoxiang Pavilion to fetch his books to read.
Bingsong and Tingyu looked at the joy, Huo Shijiu didn't go to the study again.
Since Madam entered the house, it has only been nearly three months. My aunt has dismissed her and she has a body. Even Lord Hou wished he could take root in the bedroom. The servants of them all felt at ease looking at it.
When Jiang Wu arrived at the guest house where Tang shi brought Jiang Yan and Jiang Jiao, Tang shi was leading the two daughters to do needlework.
She told Tang about her intention in the future, and sure enough, Tang politely refused as she expected, and said:
"Sister Wu, mother knows your good intentions. Although Ah Ying is not an official, she is still a good person and treats you well. He thinks about mother, and it is entirely for you. You should get along with him well and be serious. Live with others, don't listen to your father's old bastard."
"Mother, I know." Jiang Wu said: "You can accept Ah Ying's kindness."
"I can't accept it." Tang sighed: "Although I have reconciled with your father, but after all we have to take care of each other's reputation, this juncture will cause endless troubles. At that time, won't we give people something to talk about? Sister Wu, you are a smart child, you should understand."
Jiang Wu's long eyelashes flickered, like butterfly wings, hiding the embarrassment in her eyes: "Mother, I know. It's just that although I married Ah Ying not long ago, I have also seen something about his behavior. Things in the officialdom are not You and I can comment on things like my father. Some people think he is a good person, but some people think he is a bad person. For example, Ah Ying, everyone in the world scolds him, but there are a few who praise him. But It’s just a matter of personal standpoints. I don’t care about a man’s affairs outside, but only his temperament at home. He is filial to his parents, friendly to his sisters, and treats me very well. A person with such a temperament will never be a villain. "
"I know. I know." Tang said with a smile: "Since ancient times, the winners and losers, how can you tell who is right and who is wrong? It's just that your father and Ah Ying happened to be on opposite sides. Although mother is a woman People, I also understand these principles. Mother can’t accept those properties, but I am grateful to you and Ah Ying. Thank you for your thoughtfulness for Mother.”
"Where is the mother talking?" Jiang Wu looked at Jiang Yan who was quietly doing needlework, but she didn't say anything.
She is now worried about Jiang Yan and Jiang Jiao's marriage.She lived with He Li's mother in the house of her sister after leaving the cabinet, and her father was a politically radical person like Jiang Xuewen. Jiang Yan was not young anymore. If nothing happened, she should have reached the age to discuss marriage. A few days ago There are a lot of people who come to the door to talk about matchmaking...
I'm afraid Tang Corporation is also worried now, so it's better for her not to mention it.
Jiang Wu sat for a while longer, then was pushed back to rest by Tang, went back to the room and talked to Huo Shijiuyi, he smiled and said: "It's expected." He comforted Jiang Wu, "In the future, slowly think of a way Anyway, there is almost nothing I can't do in the capital city."
What he said was not arrogant, but something that could be done, but Jiang Wu couldn't help but want to tease him, and when she was about to speak, Bingsong's voice came from outside: "Master Hou, madam, the emperor's eunuch Jing is here! .”
Huo Shijiu suppressed his smile: "Where is the man?"
"He's in the front hall right now."
Huo Jiujiu smiled and said to Jiang Wu: "I'll go and have a look first."
Jiang Wu nodded, seeing Huo Shijiu going out, she still felt uneasy.
After all, it just happened that the little emperor punished her to kneel. If she could be punished, Huo Shijiu must be out of breath. If she didn't want to punish him, she would be punished.The little emperor sent someone here suddenly, probably thinking of how to punish Huo Shijiu?
Even if Huo Shijiu is an asshole in politics, he is still her husband, how can she wait for news in the bedroom with peace of mind?
Thinking of this, Jiang Wu quickly went to open the huanghuali wood cabinet, found her dagger from inside, tied it to her right calf with a cloth belt, straightened the hem of her skirt, took the fan, left Bingsong to watch the house, and took Listen to the rain and go outside quickly.
The sky was dim, and the paper lantern in Ting Yu's hands felt eerie and eerie in the blue night. The two of them walked to the second door, and they could already see the old woman chatting at the door from a distance.
Just as Ting Yu was about to speak and order to open the door, a whirlwind suddenly blew, Jiang Wu's long hair at the temples and light yellow skirt fluttered, and the candle in the paper lantern in Ting Yu's hand also dimmed for a while, and then "huh" it burned up.
The lantern was on fire, startled Tingyu jumped, and hurriedly called for someone.
The women on the second door also rushed over, fearing that Jiang Wu would be frightened and her fetus would move, and asked repeatedly if she was all right.
Jiang Wudao was fine, but she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.It is not a good sign that a good lantern is on fire.
Taking the lantern from the mother-in-law again, Jiang Wu and Ting Yu accelerated their pace and went straight to the front hall.
At this moment, there is only one thought in Jiang Wu's mind - no matter who it is, it is absolutely impossible to touch Huo Shijiu's hair.In this world, only she can hurt him.
The two master and servant came to the front hall, and they had just entered Danchi, just in time for Sixi to come from inside.
Seeing Jiang Wu, Sixi was taken aback.
Under the night, Jiang Wu was wearing a goose-yellow cross-neck tunic dress, which outlined her figure in a slim and exquisite figure, as cool as a fairy.
"Ma'am." Sixi hurriedly lowered her eyes to salute Jiang Wu, "I'm about to pass on the words of Lord Hou, so I ask my wife to make preparations. The emperor is hosting a banquet in another courtyard, and I want to invite my wife to accompany Lord Hou. But Ma'am She is beautiful all the time, judging by the small ones, there is no need to prepare anything at all." The last sentence is the truth.
Jiang Wu raised her eyebrows: "Little monkey, you've learned to be so talkative just from Master Hou."
"How dare you be a small one." Sixi turned around and lifted the curtain: "Master Hou, Madam is here."
Huo Shijiu was sitting in the first seat at the moment, having tea, and Jing Tong, the new servant next to the emperor, was standing beside him in an orderly manner.
Huo Jiujiu's expression was laziness and contemplation, unattainable, but when he heard that Jiang Wu was coming, the coldness immediately melted like spring snow.
Jiang Wu has walked around the screen and walked to the front.
Huo Shijiu put down the tea bowl, "How did it come so fast?"
Before Jiang Wu could speak, Sixi had already returned: "Your Majesty and Madam have a good understanding, the younger one just went out, Madam just came."
Seeing that Huo Shijiu was safe, Jiang Wu said: "The emperor is hosting a banquet in another courtyard?"
"Well, it's so late, I wanted you to rest at home, but since the emperor asked you to accompany me by name, I had no choice but to work on Madam."
Jiang Wu said with a smile: "The emperor's holy will, how can I refuse it." Turning to Jing Tong, he said: "Please trouble Jing Gonggong to come here."
Jing Tong's handsome face was full of flattered expressions, and he said repeatedly: "Don't dare, madam speaks seriously."
At this moment, the carriages outside were also ready, and when the people came back and forth, Huo Shijiu took Jiang Wu's hand and said: "Let's go now. I see that you are very beautiful, and there is no need to go back and change."
Jiang Wu didn't care what to wear. Seeing that Huo Shijiu was also wearing regular clothes, she knew it might be just a private banquet, so she nodded with a smile and left Ting Yu at home.
After getting into the carriage, Jiang Wu sat beside Huo Shijiu and closed her eyes to rest her mind. She listened to all directions, and found that there were only a dozen people following the carriage, and she did not find anyone with high martial arts skills, such as Cao Yu.
Cao Yu wished that both her and Huo Shijiu's bedrooms could come in, why wasn't he by his side to protect the banquet today?
According to Jiang Wu's experience, such a banquet is probably not a good thing.
"Aying, where's Mo Ran?"
"Mo Ran has something to do, so I didn't call him." Huo Shijiu didn't care.
Jiang Wu pursed her lips and nodded.
All the way to the other courtyard where the little emperor lived.I saw the palace maids in long green dresses with gouache palace costumes holding lotus lanterns and lined up two rows at the door to greet them. When they saw the two of them, they bowed their knees and saluted, saying "Hi, Madam."
Jiang Wu followed Huo Shijiu, looking at the layout of the guards in the other courtyard without a trace, and was already habitually looking for the best hiding place and evacuation route.I also saw that although this place is like an ordinary house, there are many guards, standing in a stable position, weighing their own weight, it seems that it is really not easy to come and go at will, after all, it is the residence of the current emperor.
She has a headache.If today is really a Hongmen banquet, how can she save Huo Shijiu's life and take him away safely?
The banquet is held in the front hall.When the court lady led Huo Shijiu and Jiang Wu to the courtyard where the front hall was located, they stayed outside the door, with Jing Tong leading the way.
On the way to Danchi, Jing Tong went in to answer, and came out after a while and said: "Master Hou, madam, the emperor has a favor."
Huo Shijiu thanked Jing Tong with a smile, and led Jiang Wu into the house.
Jiang Wu lowered her head and entered dignifiedly.
The inside of the house is covered with red carpets full of rich peonies, and right opposite the gate is a peony screen.The candlelights on the independent candlesticks with cranes spreading their wings on both sides are bright, covered with soft halo, and there are two rows of floor-to-ceiling candlesticks, illuminating the main hall like daytime.
Going around the screen, I saw a table of Eight Immortals with a red tablecloth in the middle of the floor. There were a lot of dishes on the table. The little emperor was wearing a royal blue double-breasted gown, and was sitting on a black lacquered paulownia armchair with his knees hugged. Staring at the dishes on the table in a daze.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the little emperor raised his head and saw Jiang Wu and Huo Shijiu. Rong Chang's face was a little awkward, and he pointed his chin at the seat beside him, "Sit down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Huo Shijiu and Jiang Wu saluted and thanked.
Huo Shijiu sat down beside the emperor's hands, and Jiang Wu sat beside him.
The little emperor still hugged his knees, and because he was thin, he felt quite comfortable in this posture. He grabbed the ivory chopsticks and turned around to tell Jing Tong: "You go and serve the Marquis and Madam."
"Yes."
Jing Tong took the serving chopsticks and carefully served Huo Shijiu and Jiang Wu to eat.
Huo Shijiu hurriedly thanked the emperor, and thanked Jing Tong politely.
Jiang Wu didn't have much appetite at first, but maybe it was because she was pregnant, so she didn't dislike delicious food. Although the emperor doesn't live in the palace, the cooks are the best, and the imperial food naturally tastes extraordinary, so she didn't even raise her head. Just feast on it.
Originally, the little emperor didn’t have much appetite, but what Jiang Wu ate had also whetted his appetite. After eating some food, his mood improved, and he could talk freely. The male duck voice joked: “Brother Ying doesn’t even feed his wife at home. Do you want to eat? Look at your daughter-in-law is hungry."
Huo Shijiu had no choice but to say with a smile: "The emperor's words are serious, how can he not give food? It's because my wife is pregnant and has a good appetite."
"I'm pregnant..." The little emperor glanced at Jiang Wu's still graceful waist, and said in a somewhat complicated way: "I didn't think much about it, I wouldn't have called her here if I had known."
Seeing that the emperor was in a good mood, Jiang Wu joked, "Why, the emperor is still stingy with such a little food?"
"Yes." The little emperor said solemnly: "You can eat so much, don't make Brother Ying poor."
"Then the emperor will give you more salary."
"I want him to strive for his own strength, and take Jinzhou and Ningyuan as soon as possible. The majestic Marquis of Jin Ning, you can't eat my internal money, at least you have to eat your own fief."
When the little emperor said this, he looked at Huo Jiujiu with a smile.
Huo Shijiu hurriedly stood up and saluted: "I obey the order. I should do my best."
"I know, Brother Ying, you don't need to be cautious." The little emperor supported his hands, and then asked with a smile, "Is the wound on your knee all right?"
Huo Shijiu was stunned for a moment, quickly shook his head, and lowered his head: "It's just a skin injury, it's nothing serious."
"What about Mrs. Ying's?"
Jiang Wufu sang the wife's suit, and naturally stood up to salute with the utmost etiquette: "Thank you, the emperor, for your concern, I am safe."
"That's good." The little emperor didn't want to explain any more, he just invited Jiang Wu and Huo Shijiu to eat, and didn't mention the incident of being punished to kneel that day, as if it had never happened, and he was still close to Huo Shijiu.
Jiang Wu's hanging heart was relieved, originally thought that the little emperor would hold grudges and would be detrimental to Huo Shijiu, but now it seems that he is throwing an olive branch to Huo Shijiu first.It's strange that Huo Shijiu, a courtier, is so cared and valued by the emperor.
Jiang Wu remembered what she had thought before.Sure enough, there may be many things she doesn't know about the relationship between the emperor and Huo Jiujiu.
As soon as she thought this way, her face suddenly turned cold, and her whole body tensed up.
Her six senses were keen, and she could clearly hear the sound of fighting outside, and she could also feel the evil spirit and eerie fear coming in like a tide.
Jiang Wu looked at Huo Shijiu and the little emperor who were still laughing, and Jing Tong beside them, they all looked as usual.No abnormality was found.
In the emperor's other courtyard, the guards are so strict, how can there be fighting sounds?The assassin wanted to attack such a big house, and they hit her so hard that she could hear her, which shows that the local troops are not weak, and their martial arts skills are not low.
While Jiang Wu was thinking about this, Huo Shijiu and the little emperor also heard the sound of fighting.
Jing Tong looked panic-stricken, hurriedly stood beside the little emperor, and asked loudly: "What's going on! Come, escort!"
What responded to Jing Tong was a loud bang.
The closed door of the main hall was kicked open, and then thirty guards with knives dressed as imperial guards served.
A group of people filed in, each holding a long knife, and surrounded the round table in the front hall.
The little emperor's face turned pale with fright, and he asked loudly with a trembling voice: "Slave dog, just barge in like this, you can't do anything wrong!"
The leader pointed at Huo Jiujiu, who looked normal, with a blade, and replied in a cold voice: "Go back to the emperor, it is not the ministers who rebelled, but the one who rebelled is Jin Ninghou! The people from Jinyiwei outside have already attacked, please hurry up!" Follow me to a safe place!"
The little emperor's panic was even more obvious, and this time he even started to stutter: "No, it's impossible, my brother Ying, why would you want to rebel, you nonsense!"
Huo Shijiu had already stood up now, frowning and looking at the thirty or so guards.
Jiang Wu felt chills in her heart.The little emperor's fear was not faked, nor was Jing Tong trembling and glaring at Huo Shijiu in front of the emperor. Could it be that Huo Shijiu really wanted to rebel?
"Your Majesty!" The leader of the guards said in a deep voice, "Please, Your Majesty, follow my servants and leave quickly. I want to kill those who plot against you!" As he said that, he pointed at Huo Jiujiu with a sword, and he was about to rush forward.
Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, under the gaze of nearly forty pairs of eyes in the room, a yellow shadow flashed by, and the guard screamed "Ah", and the steel knife in his hand fell to the ground with a "clang". The left hand was covering the right hand, and an ivory chopstick was clearly stuck on the right hand, and blood was profusely pouring out.
And that yellow shadow has already flashed in front of the emperor, the petite woman is protecting the little emperor behind her, holding the dagger backwards and slanting in front of her body, protecting the little emperor with a resolute posture, her sword eyebrows are raised slightly, and her eyes are painted Scanning everyone with sharp eyes, the last question fell on Huo Jiujiu.
That look seemed to be asking him: Are you really rebellious?
Huo Jiujiu just looked at her calmly, without any expression.
The little emperor and Jing Tong stared blankly at the petite woman standing in front of them who was a head shorter than him.
So fast!Very accurate darts!What a beautiful pose!Such a strong murderous intent!
It turned out that Jiang Shitou's daughter turned out to be such a powerful person!
She was like a cheetah, ready to go, as long as Huo Shijiu dared to admit that he was really treasonous, she would go forward and devour his life without hesitation, no matter whether he was her husband or not.
The little emperor's heart suddenly moved, and his eyes changed.
The injured guard was already furious, waved his bloody hand, and shouted loudly: "That girl is powerful, hurry up, protect the emperor, the surname Huo will be executed on the spot!"
The rest of the guards took the order, brandishing steel knives and rushed forward.
Jiang Wu was anxious, even if she had the ability to reach the sky, it was impossible for her to protect the safety of the little emperor and Huo Shijiu together under the siege of 30 people.
Seeing the guards surrounding him, Huo Shijiu picked up an armchair and threw it at one person, then stepped forward to protect Jiang Wu and the little emperor behind him, looking for the weapon, but saw a flash of blood.
It was too late for the three guards to scream, and the heads flew up together.The three corpses fell to the ground with a bang, blood flowed into rivers, and as they fell, Jiang Wu and the others clearly saw that Cao Yu, who was wearing a gray book long robe, had turned around like lightning, and with a backhand knife, he killed two more people, the guards and others He was stunned for a moment, holding the knife hesitantly and dare not charge forward, this man's knife skills are really too fast!
(End of this chapter)
Jiang Wu knew what she was thinking, and Huo Shijiu actually knew it long ago, but what he did for her mother and sister, he would not stop doing it just because the other party refused to accept it.This may be the same character between him and her. As long as he decides to do something for others, he will try his best no matter whether he can get gratitude and reward.
Jiang Wu looked at Huo Jiujiu's eyes gradually softened, and Huo Shijiu's heart was full of joy, she looked away childishly, and coughed: "Hurry up, what are you waiting for here?"
Jiang Wu laughed, and happily pinched Huo Jiujiu's face. His skin was healthy and smooth, and he felt very good. "Then I'll go. Don't miss me, beauties." Then when Huo Jiujiu was stunned, Shaking the sandalwood fan, he went out with a smile.
Huo Jiujiu looked at her back, and shook his head with a smile after a long time.He ordered the servant girl to add two more lamps, and asked Sixi to go to Baoxiang Pavilion to fetch his books to read.
Bingsong and Tingyu looked at the joy, Huo Shijiu didn't go to the study again.
Since Madam entered the house, it has only been nearly three months. My aunt has dismissed her and she has a body. Even Lord Hou wished he could take root in the bedroom. The servants of them all felt at ease looking at it.
When Jiang Wu arrived at the guest house where Tang shi brought Jiang Yan and Jiang Jiao, Tang shi was leading the two daughters to do needlework.
She told Tang about her intention in the future, and sure enough, Tang politely refused as she expected, and said:
"Sister Wu, mother knows your good intentions. Although Ah Ying is not an official, she is still a good person and treats you well. He thinks about mother, and it is entirely for you. You should get along with him well and be serious. Live with others, don't listen to your father's old bastard."
"Mother, I know." Jiang Wu said: "You can accept Ah Ying's kindness."
"I can't accept it." Tang sighed: "Although I have reconciled with your father, but after all we have to take care of each other's reputation, this juncture will cause endless troubles. At that time, won't we give people something to talk about? Sister Wu, you are a smart child, you should understand."
Jiang Wu's long eyelashes flickered, like butterfly wings, hiding the embarrassment in her eyes: "Mother, I know.

It's just that your father and Ah Ying happened to be on opposite sides. Although mother is a woman People, I also understand these principles. Mother can’t accept those properties, but I am grateful to you and Ah Ying. Thank you for your thoughtfulness for Mother.”
"Where is the mother talking?" Jiang Wu looked at Jiang Yan who was quietly doing needlework, but she didn't say anything.
She is now worried about Jiang Yan and Jiang Jiao's marriage.She lived with He Li's mother in the house of her sister after leaving the cabinet, and her father was a politically radical person like Jiang Xuewen. Jiang Yan was not young anymore. If nothing happened, she should have reached the age to discuss marriage. A few days ago There are a lot of people who come to the door to talk about matchmaking...
I'm afraid Tang Corporation is also worried now, so it's better for her not to mention it.

Jiang Wu nodded, seeing Huo Shijiu going out, she still felt uneasy.

The sky was dim, and the paper lantern in Ting Yu's hands felt eerie and eerie in the blue night. The two of them walked to the second door, and they could already see the old woman chatting at the door from a distance.
Just as Ting Yu was about to speak and order to open the door, a whirlwind suddenly blew, Jiang Wu's long hair at the temples and light yellow skirt fluttered, and the candle in the paper lantern in Ting Yu's hand also dimmed for a while, and then "huh" it burned up.
The lantern was on fire, startled Tingyu jumped, and hurriedly called for someone.

Jiang Wudao was fine, but she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.It is not a good sign that a good lantern is on fire.
Taking the lantern from the mother-in-law again, Jiang Wu and Ting Yu accelerated their pace and went straight to the front hall.
At this moment, there is only one thought in Jiang Wu's mind - no matter who it is, it is absolutely impossible to touch Huo Shijiu's hair.In this world, only she can hurt him.
The two master and servant came to the front hall, and they had just entered Danchi, just in time for Sixi to come from inside.
Seeing Jiang Wu, Sixi was taken aback.
Under the night, Jiang Wu was wearing a goose-yellow cross-neck tunic dress, which outlined her figure in a slim and exquisite figure, as cool as a fairy.
"Ma'am." Sixi hurriedly lowered her eyes to salute Jiang Wu, "I'm about to pass on the words of Lord Hou, so I ask my wife to make preparations. The emperor is hosting a banquet in another courtyard, and I want to invite my wife to accompany Lord Hou. But Ma'am She is beautiful all the time, judging by the small ones, there is no need to prepare anything at all." The last sentence is the truth.
Jiang Wu raised her eyebrows: "Little monkey, you've learned to be so talkative just from Master Hou."
"How dare you be a small one." Sixi turned around and lifted the curtain: "Master Hou, Madam is here."
Huo Shijiu was sitting in the first seat at the moment, having tea, and Jing Tong, the new servant next to the emperor, was standing beside him in an orderly manner.
Huo Jiujiu's expression was laziness and contemplation, unattainable, but when he heard that Jiang Wu was coming, the coldness immediately melted like spring snow.
Jiang Wu has walked around the screen and walked to the front.
Huo Shijiu put down the tea bowl, "How did it come so fast?"
Before Jiang Wu could speak, Sixi had already returned: "Your Majesty and Madam have a good understanding, the younger one just went out, Madam just came."
Seeing that Huo Shijiu was safe, Jiang Wu said: "The emperor is hosting a banquet in another courtyard?"
"Well, it's so late, I wanted you to rest at home, but since the emperor asked you to accompany me by name, I had no choice but to work on Madam."
Jiang Wu said with a smile: "The emperor's holy will, how can I refuse it." Turning to Jing Tong, he said: "Please trouble Jing Gonggong to come here."
Jing Tong's handsome face was full of flattered expressions, and he said repeatedly: "Don't dare, madam speaks seriously."
At this moment, the carriages outside were also ready, and when the people came back and forth, Huo Shijiu took Jiang Wu's hand and said: "Let's go now. I see that you are very beautiful, and there is no need to go back and change."
Jiang Wu didn't care what to wear. Seeing that Huo Shijiu was also wearing regular clothes, she knew it might be just a private banquet, so she nodded with a smile and left Ting Yu at home.
After getting into the carriage, Jiang Wu sat beside Huo Shijiu and closed her eyes to rest her mind. She listened to all directions, and found that there were only a dozen people following the carriage, and she did not find anyone with high martial arts skills, such as Cao Yu.
Cao Yu wished that both her and Huo Shijiu's bedrooms could come in, why wasn't he by his side to protect the banquet today?
According to Jiang Wu's experience, such a banquet is probably not a good thing.
"Aying, where's Mo Ran?"
"Mo Ran has something to do, so I didn't call him." Huo Shijiu didn't care.
Jiang Wu pursed her lips and nodded.
All the way to the other courtyard where the little emperor lived.I saw the palace maids in long green dresses with gouache palace costumes holding lotus lanterns and lined up two rows at the door to greet them. When they saw the two of them, they bowed their knees and saluted, saying "Hi, Madam."
Jiang Wu followed Huo Shijiu, looking at the layout of the guards in the other courtyard without a trace, and was already habitually looking for the best hiding place and evacuation route.I also saw that although this place is like an ordinary house, there are many guards, standing in a stable position, weighing their own weight, it seems that it is really not easy to come and go at will, after all, it is the residence of the current emperor.
She has a headache.If today is really a Hongmen banquet, how can she save Huo Shijiu's life and take him away safely?
The banquet is held in the front hall.When the court lady led Huo Shijiu and Jiang Wu to the courtyard where the front hall was located, they stayed outside the door, with Jing Tong leading the way.
On the way to Danchi, Jing Tong went in to answer, and came out after a while and said: "Master Hou, madam, the emperor has a favor."
Huo Shijiu thanked Jing Tong with a smile, and led Jiang Wu into the house.
Jiang Wu lowered her head and entered dignifiedly.
The inside of the house is covered with red carpets full of rich peonies, and right opposite the gate is a peony screen.The candlelights on the independent candlesticks with cranes spreading their wings on both sides are bright, covered with soft halo, and there are two rows of floor-to-ceiling candlesticks, illuminating the main hall like daytime.
Going around the screen, I saw a table of Eight Immortals with a red tablecloth in the middle of the floor. There were a lot of dishes on the table. The little emperor was wearing a royal blue double-breasted gown, and was sitting on a black lacquered paulownia armchair with his knees hugged. Staring at the dishes on the table in a daze.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, the little emperor raised his head and saw Jiang Wu and Huo Shijiu. Rong Chang's face was a little awkward, and he pointed his chin at the seat beside him, "Sit down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Huo Shijiu and Jiang Wu saluted and thanked.
Huo Shijiu sat down beside the emperor's hands, and Jiang Wu sat beside him.
The little emperor still hugged his knees, and because he was thin, he felt quite comfortable in this posture. He grabbed the ivory chopsticks and turned around to tell Jing Tong: "You go and serve the Marquis and Madam."
"Yes."
Jing Tong took the serving chopsticks and carefully served Huo Shijiu and Jiang Wu to eat.
Huo Shijiu hurriedly thanked the emperor, and thanked Jing Tong politely.
Jiang Wu didn't have much appetite at first, but maybe it was because she was pregnant, so she didn't dislike delicious food. Although the emperor doesn't live in the palace, the cooks are the best, and the imperial food naturally tastes extraordinary, so she didn't even raise her head. Just feast on it.
Originally, the little emperor didn’t have much appetite, but what Jiang Wu ate had also whetted his appetite. After eating some food, his mood improved, and he could talk freely. The male duck voice joked: “Brother Ying doesn’t even feed his wife at home. Do you want to eat? Look at your daughter-in-law is hungry."
Huo Shijiu had no choice but to say with a smile: "The emperor's words are serious, how can he not give food? It's because my wife is pregnant and has a good appetite."
"I'm pregnant..." The little emperor glanced at Jiang Wu's still graceful waist, and said in a somewhat complicated way: "I didn't think much about it, I wouldn't have called her here if I had known."
Seeing that the emperor was in a good mood, Jiang Wu joked, "Why, the emperor is still stingy with such a little food?"
"Yes." The little emperor said solemnly: "You can eat so much, don't make Brother Ying poor."
"Then the emperor will give you more salary."
"I want him to strive for his own strength, and take Jinzhou and Ningyuan as soon as possible. The majestic Marquis of Jin Ning, you can't eat my internal money, at least you have to eat your own fief."
When the little emperor said this, he looked at Huo Jiujiu with a smile.
Huo Shijiu hurriedly stood up and saluted: "I obey the order. I should do my best."
"I know, Brother Ying, you don't need to be cautious." The little emperor supported his hands, and then asked with a smile, "Is the wound on your knee all right?"
Huo Shijiu was stunned for a moment, quickly shook his head, and lowered his head: "It's just a skin injury, it's nothing serious."
"What about Mrs. Ying's?"
Jiang Wufu sang the wife's suit, and naturally stood up to salute with the utmost etiquette: "Thank you, the emperor, for your concern, I am safe."
"That's good." The little emperor didn't want to explain any more, he just invited Jiang Wu and Huo Shijiu to eat, and didn't mention the incident of being punished to kneel that day, as if it had never happened, and he was still close to Huo Shijiu.
Jiang Wu's hanging heart was relieved, originally thought that the little emperor would hold grudges and would be detrimental to Huo Shijiu, but now it seems that he is throwing an olive branch to Huo Shijiu first.It's strange that Huo Shijiu, a courtier, is so cared and valued by the emperor.
Jiang Wu remembered what she had thought before.Sure enough, there may be many things she doesn't know about the relationship between the emperor and Huo Jiujiu.
As soon as she thought this way, her face suddenly turned cold, and her whole body tensed up.
Her six senses were keen, and she could clearly hear the sound of fighting outside, and she could also feel the evil spirit and eerie fear coming in like a tide.
Jiang Wu looked at Huo Shijiu and the little emperor who were still laughing, and Jing Tong beside them, they all looked as usual.No abnormality was found.
In the emperor's other courtyard, the guards are so strict, how can there be fighting sounds?The assassin wanted to attack such a big house, and they hit her so hard that she could hear her, which shows that the local troops are not weak, and their martial arts skills are not low.
While Jiang Wu was thinking about this, Huo Shijiu and the little emperor also heard the sound of fighting.
Jing Tong looked panic-stricken, hurriedly stood beside the little emperor, and asked loudly: "What's going on! Come, escort!"
What responded to Jing Tong was a loud bang.
The closed door of the main hall was kicked open, and then thirty guards with knives dressed as imperial guards served.
A group of people filed in, each holding a long knife, and surrounded the round table in the front hall.
The little emperor's face turned pale with fright, and he asked loudly with a trembling voice: "Slave dog, just barge in like this, you can't do anything wrong!"
The leader pointed at Huo Jiujiu, who looked normal, with a blade, and replied in a cold voice: "Go back to the emperor, it is not the ministers who rebelled, but the one who rebelled is Jin Ninghou! The people from Jinyiwei outside have already attacked, please hurry up!" Follow me to a safe place!"
The little emperor's panic was even more obvious, and this time he even started to stutter: "No, it's impossible, my brother Ying, why would you want to rebel, you nonsense!"
Huo Shijiu had already stood up now, frowning and looking at the thirty or so guards.
Jiang Wu felt chills in her heart.The little emperor's fear was not faked, nor was Jing Tong trembling and glaring at Huo Shijiu in front of the emperor. Could it be that Huo Shijiu really wanted to rebel?
"Your Majesty!" The leader of the guards said in a deep voice, "Please, Your Majesty, follow my servants and leave quickly. I want to kill those who plot against you!" As he said that, he pointed at Huo Jiujiu with a sword, and he was about to rush forward.
Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, under the gaze of nearly forty pairs of eyes in the room, a yellow shadow flashed by, and the guard screamed "Ah", and the steel knife in his hand fell to the ground with a "clang". The left hand was covering the right hand, and an ivory chopstick was clearly stuck on the right hand, and blood was profusely pouring out.
And that yellow shadow has already flashed in front of the emperor, the petite woman is protecting the little emperor behind her, holding the dagger backwards and slanting in front of her body, protecting the little emperor with a resolute posture, her sword eyebrows are raised slightly, and her eyes are painted Scanning everyone with sharp eyes, the last question fell on Huo Jiujiu.
That look seemed to be asking him: Are you really rebellious?
Huo Jiujiu just looked at her calmly, without any expression.
The little emperor and Jing Tong stared blankly at the petite woman standing in front of them who was a head shorter than him.
So fast!Very accurate darts!What a beautiful pose!Such a strong murderous intent!
It turned out that Jiang Shitou's daughter turned out to be such a powerful person!
She was like a cheetah, ready to go, as long as Huo Shijiu dared to admit that he was really treasonous, she would go forward and devour his life without hesitation, no matter whether he was her husband or not.
The little emperor's heart suddenly moved, and his eyes changed.
The injured guard was already furious, waved his bloody hand, and shouted loudly: "That girl is powerful, hurry up, protect the emperor, the surname Huo will be executed on the spot!"
The rest of the guards took the order, brandishing steel knives and rushed forward.
Jiang Wu was anxious, even if she had the ability to reach the sky, it was impossible for her to protect the safety of the little emperor and Huo Shijiu together under the siege of 30 people.
Seeing the guards surrounding him, Huo Shijiu picked up an armchair and threw it at one person, then stepped forward to protect Jiang Wu and the little emperor behind him, looking for the weapon, but saw a flash of blood.
It was too late for the three guards to scream, and the heads flew up together.The three corpses fell to the ground with a bang, blood flowed into rivers, and as they fell, Jiang Wu and the others clearly saw that Cao Yu, who was wearing a gray book long robe, had turned around like lightning, and with a backhand knife, he killed two more people, the guards and others He was stunned for a moment, holding the knife hesitantly and dare not charge forward, this man's knife skills are really too fast!
