Chapter 370 Four

The little emperor also felt a little worried after being told by Huo Jiujiu.

When he publicized this matter, he never thought about whether the publicity meeting would reach Lu Tianming, nor did he think about the consequences the publicity meeting would have on him.

"What if Lu Tianming got the news first?" The little emperor looked at Huo Jiujiu with a flicker of eyes, like a child who is afraid of being scolded by his parents.

Huo Shijiu stroked his forehead.

Does the little emperor really not understand?He doesn't believe it.When he asked this sentence, he just wanted him to comfort him.

However, after solving the matter of the Duke of England, he will not stay with the little emperor forever, and it is impossible to continue to shield him from the wind and rain, but he has to solve everything by himself.The way forward must be walked by himself alone, and he can't feel bad for him to use his brain.

Huo Shijiu said patiently: "Once Lu Tianming got the news that the Duke of England was captured first, he would definitely feel guilty and worried about how the emperor would deal with him when he accompanied the Duke of England and did so many things that were not conducive to the country. He is not an ordinary staff member, but a person who holds the power of [-] capital guards, what should he do if he has the idea of ​​rebellion?"

"He dares!" The little emperor said coldly, "I'm rich all over the world, so I'm afraid that he won't succeed?"

"Your Majesty, the British Commonwealth has been prestige for a long time, and it didn't just rise in a day or two. His henchmen are all over the government and the public, and his connections are intertwined. How can he be removed casually? If Lu Tianming is captured, our chances of winning are high." There will be two more points, otherwise even if he can be successfully eliminated in the future, it may shake the foundation of the country."

The little emperor fell silent.After a long time, he said: "In this way, it seems that I really did something wrong."

Even if the emperor did something wrong, it cannot be said to be wrong.If Huo Shijiu is someone who is used to please the emperor, he should be smart now and not poke the little emperor's sore spots.

However, Huo Shijiu never lied in front of the emperor: "Your Majesty, you are right, but you are just a little impulsive. Didn't the former minister say that? You have to consider the consequences of doing things. If you think that doing something will be detrimental to the whole, Then you have to consider whether you want to choose short-term benefits or long-term benefits.”

The little emperor lowered his head and said nothing.

Huo Shijiu said that's all, but felt that his words were boring.The little emperor already had a series of ideas of his own, and there was no need for him to dictate. If he did too much, it would not only arouse resentment, but also make him suspected of continuing to be a puppet.

Having been a puppet all these years, the little emperor is very taboo about this kind of thing.If he didn't taboo, he wouldn't do that to the Huo family. How could he know that he didn't have the intention of getting rid of the troubles forever?
Huo Jiujiu didn't want to say any more.

He couldn't say compliments, and he couldn't say that he did a good job against his conscience, so Huo Shijiu could only remain silent.

The little emperor really trusted and relied on Huo Jiujiu, but he was ashamed and annoyed when he was denied what he did, so he lost interest in talking, and said: "Brother Ying has been tired for a day, why don't you go back and rest, there will be more in the future." It's up to you."

Jing Tong and Xiao Lu who were standing by were surprised.As usual, the little emperor would keep Huo Nineteen for dinner.

"Your majesty, you can rest too." Huo Shijiu saluted, and told Jing Tong not to forget to serve the emperor with medicine at night, and left the imperial study.

As soon as Huo Shijiu left, Jing Tong lowered his voice and said in a soft tone: "Your Majesty, you just didn't stay with Marquis Jinning for dinner, and the Marquis probably wouldn't like it."

"Huh?" The little emperor raised his eyebrows, "How do you say it?"

"In the past, if the emperor had stayed with the Marquis to talk until this hour, most of them would have kept food. If he didn't stay for a while today, it would inevitably make people think too much."

The little emperor froze for a moment, thinking about what Jing Tong said made sense.In this world, you treat people 1 times, and once in a while, one bad thing will wipe out all the good things in the past.

"Brother Ying is not such a fussy person."

Listening to the little emperor's words, Jing Tong just smiled without saying a word.

The little emperor threw away the pillow in annoyance, it was just a matter of taking care of things, and there were still many things to do, and he didn't want to bother about such things.

When Huo Shijiu returned to the mansion, it was already dark, and a key was dropped on the second door, but Jiang Wu had arranged for Yuqiao to stand by, so that he could carry a lamp for Huo Shijiu in the dark night.

"How is Madam resting today?"

"The madam is resting well. Just now, the master and the young master of the in-laws came and talked for a while."

"Does Madam like it?"

Yuqiao then looked back at Huo Shijiu, feeling envious of Jiang Wu in her heart, and said with a coquettish smile, "Back to Lord Hou, Madam likes it today."

Huo Nineteen nodded.

The little emperor didn't do what they had expected, and publicized the affairs of the British government. On the contrary, his previous notoriety was cleared up once.But what he cares about is not fame, but Lu Tianming.

Thinking of this, Huo Shijiu frowned.

Jiang Wu was reclining on the Babu bed by the window and taking a nap, when she heard the sound of footsteps approaching, she got up and said: "Master Hou is back, let's prepare dinner."

"Yes." Ting Yu went out with a smile, and was walking across from Huo Shijiu in front of the door, hurriedly saluted, and then lifted the curtain for Huo Shijiu.

Huo Shijiuxiao had heard the movement just now, and said with a smile, "I'm not busy, I'm not hungry yet."

He said he wasn't hungry, but he didn't say he had eaten.

Looking at the faint lines between Huo Shijiu's eyebrows, Jiang Wu knew that something unpleasant must have happened in the palace just now, so she smiled and said, "I'm a little hungry, why don't you accompany me to eat?"

"Is dinner useless? But it's not comfortable?" Huo Shijiu took a few steps to Jiang Wu, and took her into the house, "Is it because I was too tired at Dai's house and my fetus moved? Did Doctor Zhou see it? "

"I'm fine, don't be nervous." Jiang Wu took his hand and sat down, and glanced at Luo Rui.

Luo Rui immediately understood to prepare water and handkerchiefs for Huo Shijiu to wash.

"I ate a little for dinner. I was full at the time, but now I'm hungry again. You know, I'm eating alone for two people, so I have to eat more."

"Of course it's good." Huo Jiujiu raised his head and wiped his face, feeling much better after washing his face: "I'm afraid you won't eat it."

The servant girl came in with a food box, and the table was filled with exquisite side dishes, the exquisite steamed buns were delicious, and the japonica rice porridge mixed with red beans made it fragrant.Jiang Wu was eating a bowl of porridge, forcing Huo Shijiu to eat a tray of steamed buns.

After rinsing his mouth and wiping his hands, Huo Shijiu said, "Did your father-in-law hear about what happened today?"

"Yeah. I came here specifically to ask me what's going on. The rumors outside are so vivid that I even said that I beat that old British man with my own hands, as if I saw it with my own eyes."

"That's what the emperor ordered... Forget it, let's not talk about it." Huo Shijiu said with a smile: "Anyway, the matter has come to this point, and the rest is entirely up to the emperor."

"Can you really drop your hands?"

Huo Shijiu ran his hands along Jiang Wu's long hair hanging on his shoulders, and smiled bitterly, "Actually, I hope there is room to display my ambitions. The British public is now imprisoned, and there are still many things to do in the future. Everything in the country It's all a waste of time, there are too many things I can do. It's just... I really can't be calm when facing the emperor. It turns out that I'm just an ordinary narrow-minded person after all."

"You are not narrow-minded." Jiang Wu leaned on Huo Jiujiu's shoulders, put her arms around his waist, and pushed him down: "If you can still treat the emperor as before under such circumstances, I will find it difficult to accept it. .If it were me, I would have left the capital long ago, and would no longer care about the disputes between the emperor and the Duke of England. What does it matter to me who is the master of the world? But you did it. In this way, you have done your best.”

Huo Shijiu heard the sound and said knowingly: "So from now on, I don't have to pay more attention to it."

"Well. You have done everything you can do, haven't you?"

"Indeed." Huo Shijiu sighed, turned over and hugged Jiang Wu in his arms: "I have indeed done everything I can. After a few days, seeing the emperor solve the matter completely, the situation tends to Once it is stable, I will discuss with the emperor the matter of taking office. At that time, we can go to the south of the Yangtze River to find our parents."

Jiang Wu nodded again and again, thinking of the upcoming relaxing days, she couldn't help but smile on her lips.

Jiang Wu and Huo Shijiu slept the most peaceful night recently.

When they got up the next day, while they were having dinner, they heard Sixi whispering back under the verandah: "...Yesterday, the Duke's mansion was surrounded by heavy soldiers, because the joint trial of the three divisions has not yet started, and they are collecting British public records. The evidence is that the female relatives in the family did not move, but restricted their movements and were detained in the mansion. Who knew it was all right, the stables in their mansion caught fire last night."

Jiang Wu raised her eyebrows, took a handkerchief to touch the corner of her mouth, and said, "About when did it happen?"

"It was about three o'clock. Although the people from the water dragon bureau arrived quickly and wiped out all the work, the old, weak, women and children in that mansion were still quite frightened. The British princess is also getting old. The stock is in a hurry, and now he is bedridden."

Jiang Wu nodded and said nothing.

She felt that the Duke of England asked the crime, and his family members were somewhat innocent. After all, the old and the weak, women and children usually followed the orders of the Duke of England to do things, and it was not a heinous crime.

But since they have received the wealth and honor of the British public, they should also bear the loneliness when they are lonely, which is what family members should bear.

"Master Hou." A little girl in emerald green clothes under the corridor saluted, and said: "There are guests outside, Mr. Cao, please eat breakfast and go to the front."

Huo Shijiu and Jiang Wu looked at each other, then rinsed their mouths, stood up and said, "Wu'er, who do you think it is?"

Jiang Wu raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "I don't want to guess, no matter who it is, it's up to you to deal with everything. I'm going to see the children right now."

Huo Shijiu smiled and said, "Alright, I'm going out, and I'm going to order someone to pick you up and go with the child."

Jiang Wu was stunned, and looked at him before saying: "It seems that you can pinch and count, or do you know something?"

"I didn't think about anything, I just felt that the excitement was enough, and it was time for them to set off."
