Poisonous girl to marry

Chapter 191 Chapter [-] ~ Chapter [-]

Jing Tong's delicate face was flushed with anxiety, but he still didn't say much, he just shook his head to signal Huo Jiujiu to keep silent, and pointed to where he was standing now, his eyes signaled him not to leave yet.

Huo Shijiu understood Jing Tong's meaning and nodded.

Jing Tong then turned back into the study and closed the door of the imperial study.

Huo Shijiu put on his cloak and stood where Jing Tong was just now. Only then did he realize that the location was chosen very coincidentally. Even if the window sash of the imperial study room is fully opened, this place is still a blind spot for sight, unless the people in the room come close Lean over the window to look out, otherwise you won't see anyone here, and for the outside, the view from this place is also very good, you can see the corridor outside the main entrance, and you can also see the orderly soldiers outside the moon gate and guards on patrol.But because the red and vermilion lacquered pillars were just in front of him, the people in those two places might not be able to see clearly that there was still a person standing here.

Huo Shijiu secretly praised Jing Tong for being a shrewd person, standing here, carefully keeping quiet.

He knew that Jing Tong had something to tell him, but he was afraid that he would not believe it, so he wanted him to see it with his own eyes.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of broken porcelain in the room, followed by a violent roar: "Get out! Get out! Useless slave!"

"The emperor calm down." It was Jing Tong's voice pleading for forgiveness.

Then there was the little emperor's deep and slightly hoarse voice after the voice change period, and he roared hoarsely: "Bastards! I killed you! A bunch of idiots! You can't even serve tea, what use is it for you to be such a waste! Bring my whip!"

Immediately there was a strange voice, it sounded like a servant, the voice was very delicate, tremblingly said: "Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Then there was the sound of whipping and the little servant screaming in pain.

Every time the little emperor whipped him, he would roar and curse: "Kill you!"

His roar brought some echoes in the spacious room of the imperial study, and it could be heard clearly outside the room.

Huo Shijiu couldn't even believe his ears.

Is such an irritable little emperor still the one who wept in front of him because of grievances, and rationally repressed his grievances and analyzed the situation with him?

Now he is like a mad lion, roaring loudly, as if releasing all the accumulated anger, as if he is using this to vent his uncontrollable emotions.

The little servant who was whipped became silent after a few whips.Immediately came Jing Tong's voice of persuasion: "Your Majesty, don't get angry, don't get angry because of such things, you'd better sit down and rest for a while."

The little emperor's voice showed some fatigue, and he said, "Go, bring me that medicine."

"Your Majesty... you, please bear with me a little longer, that medicine is not a good thing, the British Duke may be uneasy and well-intentioned."

"Now that you're too old to handle errands, I'm in charge of everything!"

"The emperor appeases his anger, the slave will go now."

Huo Jiujiu frowned, clenched his fists tightly, and he still stood in front of the door without moving.Listen to the movement in the house.

Not long after, I heard the little emperor let out a sigh of relief, his voice was a little tired, but also lazy and hoarse, "Every time I take this medicine, I feel at ease, and my body seems to be better, Jing Tong, go Tell Ye Jieyu to get ready. Also, let this useless thing go down."

"According to the order."

Jing Tong agreed, and the door of the palace was pushed open after a while. First, two servants went in, and carried out an eleven or twelve-year-old servant who had been slapped to pieces. Ge Fan lowered his head and looked down at Danchi, as if there was no such person as Huo Shijiu there.

When he first entered the palace, Jing Tong gave him winks, and he was so eager just now, and then let him discover this unbelievable scene.

What is the medicine that the British government gave to the little emperor?If you don't eat it, you will get angry, but if you eat it, you can control your temper, feel comfortable, and want to pamper your concubine immediately...

The little emperor was only fifteen, wouldn't he be hollowed out if there were too many things like this, let alone under the influence of drugs.

Huo Shijiu thought for a long time, but only one word "five stone powder" flashed in his mind.

This medicine was originally used to treat diseases, but later because Wushi powder has the effect of beautifying the skin, some concubines in the harem also used it.But because Wushi powder is hot in nature, there was a noble concubine in the harem of the previous dynasty who took Wushi powder and cold wine and died on the same day, so the emperor of the previous dynasty paid attention to it and ordered that such "evil spirits" should not be used any more. The medicine enters the palace.

Unexpectedly, the Duke of England got the forbidden medicine from the previous dynasty and gave it to the little emperor.

No wonder his journey to the palace was so smooth, he didn't even encounter any spies in ambush. It turned out that the Duke of England had already made up his mind to push the emperor to take this medicine. After a long time, it would definitely make people confused. The medicine is mixed with some addictive drugs... Then the emperor is still under his control, and he has to do whatever he wants?
Huo Shijiu wished he could kill the Duke of England at this time! How dare he give the emperor this forbidden drug!

Impulsively, Huo Jiuzai didn't care so much, and directly pushed the door into the imperial study.

"So soon..." The little emperor's clothes were half uncovered, the weather in autumn was not as hot as in summer even in daylight, but the little emperor took off his outer robe and only wore a middle coat, His white chest was exposed.On the long face, which was much fairer than before, there was some surprise and embarrassment, it seemed that Huo Jiujiu would come in at this time.

"Brother Ying, why are you back? But there is still something to do?" The little emperor pretended to be calm, and looked at Huo Jiujiu with a small face.

Huo Shijiu didn't speak, and there was no trace of the little emperor losing his temper just now in the room, but the little emperor's guilty smile told Huo Shijiu that what he heard just now was not his own hallucination, it was true.

"My lord, what medicine are you taking?"

"What medicine?" The little emperor pretended to be stupid.

Huo Shijiu didn't answer, and strode forward to the black lacquered paulownia desk covered with a bright yellow tablecloth.He has an excellent memory, and the habit he has developed in the life of licking blood on the tip of a knife over the years makes him observe the surrounding environment more and more carefully wherever he goes.

When he entered the imperial study just now, there was clearly no delicate rosewood wooden box on the table.It must have been brought by Jingtong just now, but not put away.

Seeing Huo Shijiu striding towards the table, the little emperor immediately became anxious and hurried to stop him.

But Huo Nineteen was tall and had long legs, but his movements were a step faster.

He picked up the wooden box and opened it. Inside were purple-red pills and two more.

After sniffing it, Huo Jiujiu's complexion changed greatly: "What is this!"

The little emperor frowned and said nothing.

Huo Shijiu was so angry that he grabbed the wooden box and raised his hand to drop it.

At this moment, the little emperor was in a hurry, and rushed forward to snatch it. He was not as tall as Huo Shijiu, but with the strength after taking the medicine, he jumped up and grabbed the wooden box.

Huo Shijiu refused to let go, and the little emperor also refused to let go, and the two actually scuffled.

"Your Majesty, let go!"

"I won't let you go, Huo Ying, you don't want to die! How dare you fight me!"

"Even if the emperor kills the humble minister, the minister must not let the emperor sink into the quagmire!"

"This is not a quagmire, this is medicine!"

"This is clearly Wushi Powder! Even if it's a medicine, it's poisonous if you use it wrong! Besides, the emperor would dare to take the medicine Cai Jing gave you! Why don't you hurry up and rein in the precipice!"

"You are nosy, I order you to let go!"

"Don't let it go! Don't let it go!"

In the past, even if the little emperor beat him, Huo Jiujiu would not have any complaints, but today is different. After experiencing great sorrow and joy, after hearing the tyranny of the little emperor, how could Huo Jiujiu be calm? Now, he just wanted to tear the person who poisoned the little emperor into pieces.

No matter how mature and experienced the little emperor is, after all, he is only a child who has just turned 15 years old. He is at the age of rebellion, so how can he resist the temptation of this drug?
During the scuffle between the two, the medicine box fell to the ground, and the two pills inside rolled out all of a sudden. Huo Shijiu got up angrily, stepped on the two pills, and crushed them to pieces.

The little emperor was wearing a dirty bright yellow tunic with his white chest open, sitting on the ground panting, staring at Huo Shijiu angrily.

Huo Shijiu was also panting heavily, the words of reprimand came to his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.

Can he blame the emperor for being unable to resist the temptation?He has seen everything the emperor has experienced in these years, and it hurts in his heart. Even if he has a weak will, the bigger mistake lies in him. If it is not for his incompetence, how could the Duke of England take advantage of the opportunity!
He wanted to speak to persuade, but when he opened his mouth, the sound was already choked in his throat.As soon as the eye sockets were hot, the corners of the eyes became wet.

Huo Shijiu hurriedly kept quiet and turned his eyes away.

The little emperor was angry at first, but it can be seen that Huo Shijiu's appearance was a little guilty. He stood up and wanted to say something, but felt that he couldn't bear to apologize to his courtiers, and the scene froze there.

"Your Majesty." Jing Tong came into the room, seeing the two of them like this, he already understood in his heart, he didn't dare to say more, and stood with his hands down.

Huo Shijiu took a deep breath and didn't want to say too much. He believed that the little emperor knew right from wrong, but he couldn't control his behavior.

Today's medicine has already been taken, and it is too late, the important thing is the future.

Huo Shijiu rationally controlled his temper, and after saluting, he turned and left the Imperial Study Room.

The little emperor and Jing Tong faced each other in silence, and after a while, there was a servant back and forth outside: "Your Majesty, Ye Jieyu is here."

Where is he still interested?At this moment, like a child who has been found out for doing bad things, he is completely thinking about how to smooth things over without losing face. The little emperor waved his hand impatiently: "Let her go!"

The emperor is angry again!

The servants were all afraid of becoming the punching bag of the little emperor's whip, so they hurriedly retreated.

Huo Shijiu came out of the courtyard where the Imperial Study Room was located. His face was calm, his eyes were deep, and he couldn't see any emotion at all. It was just that he seemed to have an aura of calmness and prestige in him, and then put on the atmosphere at the moment Not quite right, Jiao Zhongyi couldn't ask the questions that filled his heart.

On the other hand, Pei Hongfeng was clear on the sidelines, and her mind was not so heavy.

Now she just wants to go back and edit a book as soon as possible, so that she can send a letter to her girl.

%
When Yang Xi received the letter from Pei Hongfeng, she was having tea with Jiang Wu.

"Originally in Kyoto, I said that I would come to your house to disturb you, but today I came to your home in Jinzhou."

"Madam is too polite. It is our honor to have you here." Yang Xi smiled and said, "Grandfather and grandmother just told me to treat you nicely."

Because Jiang Wu came as Yang Xi's friend, everyone in the Tang residence was surprised. On the one hand, there was a grand welcome with lights and festoons. The consequences of killing the "devil's" wife are also very serious.

Tang Xiao was eating melon seeds on the side, smiling clearly.It seems that his cousin is really interested in Mr. Cao, whether it is from the perspective of business or choosing a husband in the future, Huo Shijiu's wife is a good choice for making friends.

Others may not understand, but he knows Yang Xi too well.She is smart and kind, young and mature, active in thinking and stable, she likes to do things straight-forward, doesn't like to procrastinate, and is best at analyzing pros and cons.In her eyes, it is only about profit and loss.

This is also because she saw the hope of "Ying".

"Girl." A little girl outside replied, and presented a letter to Yang Xi with both hands.

When Yang Xi saw the words on the envelope, she didn't shy away from Jiang Wu, so she couldn't wait to open the letter and read it.

After watching it, his brows were tightly wrinkled.

"Mrs. Huo, it's a letter from Hongfeng."

As soon as Jiang Wu heard the news that it was from the capital, she regained her spirits, leaned forward with concern, and asked, "How is the capital city?"

Yang Xi said succinctly: "Cao Moran was seriously injured, and Marquis Jin Ning ordered everyone to enter the palace to face the saint. Hongfeng didn't explain the specific situation because he was on guard against others."

Jiang Wu's heart suddenly rose to her throat.

Such a big thing happened!
Cao Yu's handsome martial arts, such high-strength martial arts, can even be injured!And Huo Shijiu, just bring soldiers and horses with real swords and guns to face the saint?

At this time, Jiang Wu hated why there was no phone in this era, and she was not with him, and Cao Yu was injured again. Only Pei Hongfeng was left by Huo Jiujiu's side. Could it really protect his safety?

Huo Shijiu is not a reckless person, if he can do this, it can only prove that the scene at that time was more chaotic than she expected.

Calculating carefully, even if the letter was sent immediately from Jinzhou City on the capital city road, at least seven or eight days have passed by now.

If Huo Jiujiu was really in danger, by now... the dust might have settled.

Jiang Wu shook her head, forcing herself not to think about it.

Yang Xi is actually very worried about Cao Yu, but after all, she is no one of Cao Yu's now, and she can't even express her concern as directly as Jiang Wu.

Both of them sighed
Tang Xiao couldn't see that the two of them looked listless, so she stood up and patted the melon seeds on the jacket, and said, "If you want to know what's going on, don't you just go and have a look? It's better than guessing here .”

"Brother Xiao, don't talk nonsense!" Yang Xi scolded.

Jiang Wu stood up and sighed: "Young Master Tang is right. If you want to know the situation, it is indeed the best choice to see it with your own eyes. It's just..."

Although the home has returned to normal now, the burnt Rong Dezhai has already found a master who is good at civil engineering to redesign and renovate.

But after all, she is still worried about such a big family. Huo Shijiu is doing serious things. She is not in good health after being injured. She is not as confident as before that she can help him. At least she can't drag him down.That's why she can only endure and stay here, guarding the Huo family for him.

But in this way, Jiang Wu is really anxious to wait here for the news from the capital.

"Miss Yang, someone has come to the Hou Mansion."

A little girl was standing in the corridor panting, she seemed to have just run back from outside to deliver a message.

When Jiang Wu heard that it was related to the Marquis Mansion, she asked anxiously: "What happened to the Marquis Mansion?"

"Go back to Mrs. Jinning Hou, the Hou's mansion is safe, just now the front door came to pass a message, and someone from your mansion has come, please go back quickly and meet each other."

Jiang Wu nodded and said, "I'll take my leave first."

Yang Xi sent Jiang Wu to the door, and said worriedly: "If something happens after you go back, Madam, please order someone to tell me."

"Don't worry." Jiang Wu said goodbye to Yang Xi, went out and got into the carriage, and went straight to Jinning Hou's mansion.

Jiang Wu was very anxious, urging the coachman to drive the carriage fast all the way, and soon came to the gate of the Hou Mansion, before the coachman had set up the small black lacquered wooden stool, Jiang Wu had already lightly jumped out of the car, and walked quickly In the yard, when there was no one there, she simply went straight to the front hall where she is now serving guests, just like she did when she was practicing agility and footwork recently.

As soon as he arrived at the door, Jiang Wu heard the hearty laughter of Huo Dashuan and the visitors.

It's Jiao Zhongyi!

Jiang Wu entered the door in surprise.

"General Jiao?"

"Madam is well." Jiao Zhongyi stood up and saluted Jiang Wu.

Jiang Wu returned the salute, and hurriedly asked: "Why is General Zi Jiao here now? The matter in the capital has been resolved?"

"Yes." said Jiao Zhongyi in admiration, "Master Hou is really straight-forward in his work, and his efficiency is astonishing. Now the emperor is safe, and the operation that day went very smoothly. Master Hou said that Jinzhou must never go back to help the emperor in the future." , so let me bring someone back to ask the old man what he means, it is best to leave within three days, and invite the whole family to go to the capital city."

Huo Dashuan frowned tightly when he heard the words, and said: "The limelight in the capital is tight now, and I don't know what's going on. If those people are against Ah Ying, wouldn't we become a burden? Wu'er girl is good at martial arts, that's all. Like me and her mother are both burdens."

Jiao Zhongyi shook his head again and again: "What did the old lady say? You should prepare to go back to the capital just because you want to reassure Lord Hou. Think about it, if the distance is so far, Lord Hou will not be able to see it even if you want to. Under the nose, at least I know what I know. Besides, you can rest assured that when Lord Hou saw the emperor, the emperor still trusted him as before, and even specially asked me to protect him and his family. If I let you and the masters of your family make even the slightest mistake, it would be considered dereliction of duty, and I would be beheaded."

Huo Dashuan fell silent.

Jiang Wu said: "Since that's the case, let's go back to Beijing as General Jiao said."

　It is recommended not to sweep the snow in "The Return of the Concubine". Her mother died early, she and her elder brother were killed successively, and the Han family was shrouded in a huge conspiracy.When Han Jiangxue was reborn and returned, he was doomed to a lifetime of glory!
