Poisonous girl to marry

Chapter 274
"Your Majesty, I have explained my words so frankly, do you still want to be sloppy with me? Over the years, it is not easy for the two of us, the monarch and the minister, to support each other and come to this day. How can we not even explain the matter openly and honestly today? Can't you?" Huo Shijiu pulled the little emperor's sleeve and led him to sit on the couch by the window, while he stood aside and said respectfully, "If I understand you, you understand me too. Minister. The nature of the minister is that he likes to be free and easy in the pastoral landscape. Even if he was trying to gain fame at the beginning, he just wanted to try at the end when he was old, and he didn't study hard. The national conditions of the country mean that the minister can really travel around the mountains and rivers with his heart, and under the unstable situation, the minister may not be able to play in peace.

"I was fortunate enough to get to know the late emperor. It was because I didn't know his respected status, so I just talked with him, and I also said that I planned to put my love on the mountains and rivers, but I couldn't let go because of the country's troubles. Brother, when it came to the palace examination, I found out that brother righteous is the current emperor."

Huo Shijiu's voice was full of nostalgia, as if he had returned to the age when he was still a vigorous young man in Wuling more than ten years ago. At that time, he was really an age full of enthusiasm and fearlessness.

The little emperor lacked paternal love, and he relied on Huo Jiujiu, so why didn't he look for paternal love in him?Listening to his words at this moment, it seems that I can also think of everything that happened when my father was alive.

The indifference around the two of them just now dissipated a little because of Huo Shijiu's nostalgia.

Huo Shijiu raised the hem of his clothes and knelt down slowly, looked up at the little emperor sitting on the couch, and said calmly and sincerely: "I have really worked hard and exhausted physically and mentally over the years. I only hope that the emperor will allow me to take you with me in the future." The family members are getting old, and the minister is just a useless scholar after all."

"You..." the little emperor opened his mouth, only to realize that his throat was a little hoarse due to excitement. He cleared his throat with a cough and said, "Brother Ying's talent and ambition, if he is really disarmed and returned to the fields, wouldn't it be a waste of money?"

"There are a lot of talented people in the world, so why would it not be possible without Huo Ying? As long as the emperor can recruit the virtuous in the future, convince others with virtue, and show your true side, there will definitely be many loyal, brave and talented people." Shiken has devoted himself to you. I am really tired. Moreover, I also hope to maintain such a close relationship with the emperor. Even if I am in the Jianghu in the future, I can miss the emperor from afar. If there is a chance to meet, you and I will return To be able to talk to each other without distinction as before, instead of pushing each other farther and farther..."

When the little emperor heard Huo Shijiu's words so truthfully, his heart was both moved and reluctant.What's moving is that Huo Shijiu's choice is indeed the best for them.What makes him reluctant is his dependence on Huo Shijiu, which really makes him reluctant to let him go.However, even if he is reluctant, if Huo Shijiu can really retire successfully in the future, his sense of crisis will indeed be reduced.

"That's all." The little emperor took Huo Jiujiu's hand, and the two stood up together, facing each other, "These are all things for the future, Brother Ying is my reliance, and will always be."

Knowing that he had already convinced the little emperor, Huo Shijiu didn't say any more.

The purpose of the little emperor's coming to reconcile with Huo Shijiu this time has been achieved, but Huo Shijiu can immediately take the next step, so he started to discuss again.

Huo Shijiu only said: "Wu'er can only function when she is in a better mood. Now that her heart has been torn into several pieces, she has to take care of the minister and take care of her in-laws who miss her grandson. .”

After all, I still want a son!

The little emperor felt really depressed and angry, and he remembered what Huo Shijiu had taught him before.This is what happens when the interests of two people collide, right?
The little emperor wanted to ask Huo Jiujiu directly, can't you sacrifice your son for me?
But these words were too cheeky, and he couldn't open his mouth.

The little emperor continued to evade this topic.

Seeing the emperor like this, Huo Shijiu knew there was no hope, so he said that he was exhausted and needed to rest.

The little emperor felt embarrassed and had to go back to the palace.

Before leaving Hou's mansion, in order to express his concern for Huo Shijiu, he also told Jing Tong: "You stay, go find a few more reliable imperial physicians, and go to Zhen to collect money to give brother Ying good medicine. Ying Eldest brother is not in good health, so don't go back to the palace to wait on him."

Jing Tong was the one who served the emperor closely. Although he was a servant, his status and status were really unusual. It was really a great honor and peace for the people to leave him to serve Huo Shijiu.

And for the Huo family, this is also a huge hot potato.

For this kind of eunuch who can often get in touch with the emperor, and can easily hear the wind in his ears, it is really important.

Don't say that the Huo family felt hot, and Jing Tong was also full of bitterness.

At this moment, he couldn't hide from Huo Shijiu, so the emperor left him here.In case something accidentally offends the uncle, Huo Shijiu really dares to cut it first and play later.He is an eunuch, can he still be able to fight against the evil god who kills people with his eyes raised?

Jing Tong tremblingly ordered what the emperor ordered, and went back to the inner house to go to the room.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Cao Yu smiled and said, "Eunuch Jing has worked hard."

"Oh, Mr. Cao doesn't need to be so courteous, he's really a slave." Jing Tong saluted quickly.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Jing Tong asked: "When does Lord Hou have dinner? Our family can go and order someone to prepare it."

"Don't bother Eunuch Jing, these small things will naturally be done by someone. There is a banquet at home today, and someone has just sent a message. Lord Hou said that you are invited to go together."

"This can't be allowed. After all, the slave is a servant. Since it's the Marquis's family banquet, how can the slave join in the fun? The servant is here to serve."

The soft curtain of the main room was lifted, and Huo Shijiu and Jiang Wu came out together.At the same time Jiang Wu looked at the scene, some cold and sharp light shot from the bright almond eyes under the flying sword eyebrows like ice cones.

Jing Tong shivered in fright, and quickly lowered his eyes to salute: "Master Hou, madam."

Huo Shijiu smiled and said, "Let's go, Eunuch Jing went to have dinner together, it's lively and lively."

Huo Shijiu personally ordered, even though Jing Tong had a stomach full of reasons to distinguish, he didn't dare to refuse. He only cried secretly why the emperor kept him here. He really thought that he alone could control the Huo family?
When walking all the way to the front hall, there are maids in the mansion lighting the lamps back and forth.Huo Shijiu and Jiang Wu are in front, Jing Tong is behind, Cao Yu is last, and the group moves forward slowly.

Huo Nineteen asked leisurely: "Eunuch Jing mentioned something that day, but I haven't thanked you yet. Thank you, Eunuch."

Reminder...

When Huo Shijiu said this, Jing Tong's hairs stood on end.That time when someone was invited to invite Huo Shijiu into the palace, it really didn't count as a point, it was almost as good as leading Huo Shijiu to the knife edge.It seems that this man's temperament of vengeance has not changed, he still remembers it!
"I don't dare to be a slave. Lord Hou is a celebrity in front of the emperor. You have always been the only one who mentions other people's affairs. I am a dull slave. I haven't studied much since I was a child, and I have a slow temper. If there is something wrong with it, it's wrong." , Master Hou can beat and scold, so please teach your slaves."

"Eunuch Jing is someone close to the emperor. If you want to teach, it is only the emperor who can do it." Huo Shijiu smiled, his voice was as gentle as a spring breeze, but Jing Tong seemed to have a blizzard in his heart.

"I know I'm wrong. I beg Lord Hou to punish me." As soon as his knees softened, Jing Tong fell to his knees with a plop.

Huo Shijiu and Jiang Wu stopped and turned around, both smiling but not smiling.

"Eunuch, what are you doing, please get up quickly. Tell people to look at it, for fear that someone will say something wrong with my Ah Ying." Jiang Wu approached slowly.

Jing Tong followed the emperor, what did he not know?This aunt is a master who kills people when she stares, so why should she be polite to him?
Jing Tong backed up again and again in fright: "I don't dare, I will definitely do my best to serve the emperor and take care of the little prince in the palace, and I dare not neglect at all."

"Really." Jiang Wu knelt down, patted Jing Tong's clean face with plain hands, and said with a smile: "Of course it's good, but I have a question. I can't figure it out anyway. Others, how about eunuch explain to me?"

Jing Tong saw that Huo Shijiu turned his back and left with Cao Yu, even the servant girl who carried the lamp had left, and the light faded away, leaving him and Jiang Wu here, the horror in his heart was even worse up.At this moment, Jiang Wu would have no difficulty breaking his neck and destroying his corpse.

"Madam, please, please speak."

"I want to know why the emperor was so angry that day and wiped out the seven clans of the Xu family."

Jing Tong's face turned pale instantly.If such a secret matter is revealed, wouldn't it make people laugh at the emperor?But if you don't say it, you will die right now?
After thinking about it, my own life is more important.

Jing Tong stammered, covering up half of the matter but not half of it. How smart Jiang Wu is, she already understands everything without saying anything.

"So these days, the emperor hasn't investigated anything?"

"Yes, there is a check."

"Oh." Jiang Wu made a long voice, pulled Jing Tong to stand up, and went to the dining room side by side with her, and said with a smile: "I am a rough person, and I like to solve problems in simple and violent ways, like our family Ah Ying. Wen Wenya has a different temperament, and he likes to be bored in his stomach. Eunuch Jing needs to remember that if he is unhappy, I don’t care who is who, and I will kill the matter first. At this juncture, you also know who the emperor relies on .”

"Madam Jin Ninghou is absolutely right." Beads of sweat slid down Jing Tong's cheeks.

Jiang Wu said again: "Eunuch Jing also has a brother in his hometown. I ordered someone to visit it a while ago. I saw that they used the money you gave them over the years, and they lived pretty well. Thinking about your care over the years. For the emperor to work hard, I also gave them some money, enough to live comfortably for a lifetime."

"Thank you Jin Ninghou and his wife!" Jing Tong saluted again.

The so-called worry-free food and clothing, if she can give it, she can also take it away!
Jing Tong didn't dare to think about anything else, but he felt sad when he thought of the dead man.

He has tried his best for so long, is it really impossible to do it?
