Poisonous girl to marry

Chapter 346 Chapter [-]~[-]
"You're back? Come and have some hot tea to warm yourself up." Jiang Wu was about to get up to serve the tea.

Huo Shijiu hurriedly walked to the front in two or three steps, and helped her to sit down on the armchair covered with thick cushions, moving carefully so as not to bump into her.

"I don't want you to serve me tea, it's good for me if you take a break and don't feel uncomfortable."

Wen Da Jiahui said with a smile: "Look at her, she is born to be an active monkey, can she really calm down?" The woman next to her was pregnant and had never seen such an energetic woman. Different, the more he likes it.

It's a pity that after accepting Huo Jiujiu's help, although he is hopeful to return, he is getting farther and farther away from her.Even if he was able to be ruthless in the past to win people's love, he can't do it now when facing Huo Shijiu who helped him like this, not only because Jiang Wu would not like it, but most importantly because his conscience would make him feel uncomfortable.

Huo Shijiu seemed to understand what Wenda Jiahun was thinking, and took over his words with a smile: "She is so lively, this child will definitely give birth to a lively boy."

"Do you still miss your son?" Jiang Wubuyi, caressing her stomach and looking up at him, there was a sparkle in her eyes that was about to break.

In fact, she was looking forward to a daughter, and she also had a premonition that it would be a daughter.She didn't know if other mothers had the same unexplainable sixth sense as she did.

Seeing her unhappy, Huo Shijiu hurriedly explained: "No, no, of course boys and girls are the same, as long as you are safe and sound, both daughters and daughters will be fine."

Seeing that his anxious face turned pale, Jiang Wu also felt that she was a little unreasonable. She just made a bold assumption, and it didn't mean that she had to want a son.

It seems that being pregnant is indeed easy to be irrational.

Jiang Wu couldn't help laughing.

Huo Shijiu breathed a sigh of relief, only then did he feel that sweat was profuse on his forehead, he took off his coat and handed it to Yingxue who was serving at the side, and looked at the brass animal foot heater burning on the ground, although he felt hot, he thought about it. Seeing that Jiang Wu might be cold, she didn't speak.

Wen Da Jiahun watched it for so long as if he was watching a play, and felt that it was actually very interesting to just watch them getting along.

Huo Shijiu sat next to her, took a sip of tea, and said to Wen Da Jiahun, "I have talked with the emperor all day today. Although I didn't get ten points, I still have eight or nine points. Your Majesty It means let me set a charter with you, and talk to him later."

Wen Da Jiahui nodded, clasped his fists and said, "I've worked hard for you. Thank you for your kindness."

"Don't be so polite. If you are really kind, how can we repay your kindness to my Huo family?" Huo Shijiu looked at Wenda Jiahui, his eyes were full of sincerity.

Wen Da Jiahui smiled and said: "Okay, there are exchanges between you and me, so it's evened out. I, a man from the Kingdom of Jin, don't have so many flirts, and I will keep your sincere help in mind. Will definitely repay in the future.”

What he appreciates about him is his temperament.It was also because he was such an open person that Huo Shijiu didn't hate him deeply.

Jiang Wu saw that the two of them seemed to have something serious to say, so she didn't bother her much, she stood up slowly, and said, "I'll go and order the chef to prepare the food and drinks, and you guys will chat while eating later."

Huo Shijiu said: "Tell them to go, don't be tired, go and rest."

"I'll see you at dinner later." Jiang Wu nodded to Wen Da Jiahun, and left the flower hall under the service of Ying Xue and Ting Yu.

In the corridor, he ordered someone to go to the small kitchen to prepare dinner, and then asked: "At this time, my father and second brother shouldn't have eaten yet, right? I'll make some dishes later, remember to send some to them too."

"Understood, ma'am." Ting Yu said: "I'll go and give instructions, Yingxue will help Madam in the meeting room and rest for a while."

Ying Xue said yes, and went into the house after serving Jiang Wu.

At dinner, Jiang Wu accompanied him to eat, and then consciously went back to the bedroom to rest.Huo Shijiu and Wenda Jiahun talked about the middle of the night.

"...Since that's the case, let's settle it for now. Later, you go into the palace to talk with your emperor. It's not too late to discuss. I have another matter to discuss with you." After talking about serious matters, Wen Da Jiahui coughed, and said in a low voice with some discomfort, "I want someone from you."

Huo Jiujiu was stunned for a moment, and then said with understanding: "Whoever your Majesty wants to hire, just ask. Although I am not talented, I still have some cronies available."

Wen Da Jiahun smiled and said: "I accept your wish, but it's not about using someone, but my secret guard fell in love with a girl from your house."

Huo Shijiu suddenly realized that Wenda Jiahui was talking about Namu's falling in love with Tingyu.He has long seen the minds of their little children, but because he can be regarded as a woman, it is not easy to ask the man to marry him for Ting Yu, right?

What he was waiting for was for the other party to speak first, but he didn't expect that Namu didn't say it, but Wenda Jiahui did it for him.It seems that Wenda Jiahui attaches great importance to Namu.

Huo Shijiu didn't point it out directly, and pretended not to understand, he said, "I don't know which one His Majesty is talking about? Tell me, if you haven't asked someone else, I'll go and tell Wu'er. You know, the one in the inner house Wu'er has the final say on everything."

Wen Da Jiahui also knew that he should actually go to Jiang Wu for this matter, but after all, Huo Shijiu knew that he had a special feeling for Jiang Wu. If he went to Jiang Wu directly, it would be as if he followed her way and let Huo Jiu After Nineteen thought about it, he asked Huo Shijiu face to face.

"It's so good. You know my hidden guard is Namu. He was cultivated by me. He was bought when he was a few years old. He was secretly trained and taught. He is now my right-hand man. He is very loyal and trustworthy. I can guarantee the quality. As for what he is looking for, it is the maid next to Jiang Wu, the one with a beauty mole between her eyebrows." Wen Da Jiahui didn't remember the girl's name for a while.

"So it was listening to the rain." Huo Shijiu nodded.

Wen Da Jiahui said: "Yes, it is her. I don't know if she has agreed to others or not?"

"She's not born in the family." Huo Shijiu answered ambiguously, and then said: "Well, it's already late today, and Wu'er has already gone to bed, I'll ask her tomorrow, and I'll give you a letter .”

"That's fine." Wen Da Jiahui agreed happily. After all, he was asking for Jiang Wu's maidservant for Namu. .

Huo Shijiu said goodbye to Namu, one returned to the bedroom and the other returned to the guest house.

Jiang Wu was fast asleep in this room, and when she heard Huo Shijiu coming back, she just squinted at him, not sure if she really woke up.

After Wenda Jiahun and Namu returned to the Academy of Sciences, they said, "I told you what I said, let's hear the news tomorrow."

Namu's face was flushed with embarrassment, thanks to the lighting of the lamp at night, and his dark skin, he couldn't see his face, he knelt down and saluted, and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

There was nothing to say all night, and when Jiang Wu woke up naturally the next day, she was surprised to find that Huo Shijiu hadn't gone to the outer courtyard, but was still sleeping next to her.

It seems that he had a very late talk with Wen Da Jiahun yesterday, and he was exhausted.

Jiang Wu's mattress is special, because her belly is getting bigger and bigger now, and ordinary mattresses can't lie flat. The mattress she uses now is the one that Tang made for her when she was pregnant with Huo Chong. And the arc is just right.

She turned over slightly and stared at Huo Jiu's sleeping face in a daze.

Huo Shijiu's sleeping face was full of ambition, as if he had dreamed of something good, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised, evoking a playful arc.

Of course, if one ignores the faint lines on his forehead and the two strands of white hair on his temples due to long-term frowning, he looks like a boy of eighteen or nineteen years old.

Jiang Wu stretched out her hand, and lightly brushed the fresh green stubble on her chin.

Unexpectedly, he grasped her hand, squinted his eyes, and said sleepily: "I know it's the silly girl who has been staring at me."

Jiang Wu smiled, her voice was a little hoarse when she first woke up: "I also know that you are about to wake up."

"How do you know?" Huo Shijiu turned over, put his arm around her shoulder, and kissed her forehead.And habitually rubbing the stubble on her chin against her tender cheeks and neck.

Jiang Wu couldn't bear the itching the most, she dodged it with a smile, and only after being kissed several times by him did she give up.

Jiang Wu breathed unsteadily and said: "Isn't your breathing messed up? When did you sleep yesterday?"

"I don't sleep until after midnight."

"How was the talk with Daying?"

"It's almost there. This time, I think the emperor will definitely agree, but I don't want to go to the palace to talk to the emperor right away, lest the emperor think that we have premeditated. It is just right that the efficiency of negotiating with Jin Guo in the past has been increased by half."

Jiang Wu leaned on his shoulder blades, her voice was gentle and soft: "You are familiar with these things, just be careful not to arouse the emperor's suspicion. He is now the most sensitive and suspicious time."

Huo Shijiu touched her head, and said: "I know, self-protection will be the premise." Realizing that the topic was too heavy, Huo Shijiu smiled and changed the subject: "Daying discussed with me last night, Ask for Namu to marry Tingyu."

"Oh?" Originally, Huo Shijiu's embrace was so comfortable that she was about to fall asleep again. Hearing this, she became refreshed all of a sudden, propping herself up on her elbows, her long hair slipped behind her and spread it on the pillow: "It's really strange." Well, I thought Namu couldn't take it anymore and would come and beg me for someone. I didn't expect Daying to attach so much importance to Namu."

"Yes. Then do you plan to release him?"

Jiang Wu smiled and said: "I have observed these days, Namu has shown goodwill to Tingyu several times, helped her do this and that, and gave her small gifts, and always made some oolongs, such as the last time I gave her It’s a sugar figurine, and it accidentally fell to the ground. I think Tingyu was angry and funny at the time, but he didn’t hate it.”

"That is to say, Ting Yu also kind of fell in love with Namu."

"It should be. But the girl is thin-skinned, so I still want me to test it first."

Jiang Wu was talking, her eyes were filled with brilliance, like a child who suddenly found a toy after a pause.Huo Shijiu couldn't help laughing when he heard her old-fashioned words.

"It sounds like you are so old, aren't you also a girl?" After all, she was younger than Ting Yu.

Jiang Wu waved her hand: "That's different, I'm the mother of two children." She patted her stomach lightly.

As if to support Jiang Wu, the little guy in his stomach also kicked the place Jiang Wu touched in response.Jiang Wu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and put Huo Nineteen's hand on her stomach, "Look, this child is so smart, as smart as Chong'er!"

Huo Shijiu moved his big hand, and a little guy inside touched his hand across his stomach.

Even though he experienced such a wonderful feeling once, Huo Shijiu couldn't help being moved and joyful.

A dignified man, he doesn't shed tears for no matter how big things are, but now the corners of his eyes are slightly moist: "Wu'er, thank you very much."

"Thanks for something."

"Without you, I don't know what kind of life I am living now. Thank you for accepting me and accepting my life. Thank you for raising children for me."

Jiang Wu was very moved in her heart, because in this era and in this society, it is really not easy for a man to say such sentimental words in front of a woman while still holding a grateful heart.He thanked her, why didn't she thank him?
Jiang Wu is not good at saying those emotional words, and said carelessly: "No, I have to thank you too, this child is our partnership anyway, without you, I would not have a son."

Huo Nineteen: "..."

The original sensational atmosphere dissipated immediately.

"Silly girl!" Gently pinching her cheek, Huo Jiujiu said, "I'm going to get up now, and I still have some things to do. You should sleep for a while."

"I got up too. I had enough sleep last night. Maybe I let go of the things hanging in my heart yesterday, who is especially good."

Huo Shijiu helped Jiang Wu up, and raised his voice to call for someone to come in and wash up.

After the two tidied up, they ate breakfast together, and Huo Shijiu went to the outer courtyard to greet Jiang Xuewen, and went to do serious business.

Jiang Wu listened to the rain again, and put on a light and warm black fox fur for a walk in the yard.

Ting Yu was wearing a dark green pinch-tooth armor, and a stone-blue cloak of muslin over her head. The plain color made her lightly powdered face look extraordinarily beautiful.

Jiang Wu held the small hand stove in one hand, and Tingyu's hand in the other. As she walked, she couldn't help but look at her carefully. The more she felt that Namu was really discerning!

Namu is from the Kingdom of Jin, and Tingyu is afraid of going to the Kingdom of Jin when she marries him, so she is really reluctant.

"Listen to the rain."

"lady?"

Ting Yu has long been terrified by Jiang Wu, if she keeps watching, she feels that she will not be able to walk.

Jiang Wu saw that she was uncomfortable, but Miss Xindao was very sensitive, so she didn't procrastinate, and said straightforwardly: "What do you think of Namu?"

Ting Yu didn't expect Jiang Wu to ask this question, she was stunned for a moment, then her face turned red, her tongue seemed to be unable to control her, and after a while she finally managed to say: "No, I don't think so."

"I don't think so?" Jiang Wu nodded, and while taking a walk, she said lightly: "That's right, the boy was born tall and big, not as delicate as the men of Yan State, and he is also a bit stupid. Give me an earring and throw it away." One, if you send a scalding person to the ground, you can even fall if you hit him with water. I don’t feel at ease teaching you to such a stupid person.”

Ting Yu shook her head repeatedly when Jiang Wu was speaking, and she shook her head every time she said the same thing, as if she wanted to rush to argue for Namu, but she didn't want to disobey the master's intention.

In the end, Namu became the idiot in Jiang Wu's mouth. She felt that she was discouraged all of a sudden, and she lowered her head and said, "Yes."

Yes?
Jiang Wu blinked, feeling that Ting Yu didn't "act" according to her arrangement at all, shouldn't she be unable to restrain herself from speaking well for Namu?No matter how bad it is, it is time to defend Namu.

Does Tingyu really dislike Namu?
Looking carefully at Ting Yu's face, Jiang Wu denied this guess. She didn't like it, she was clearly moved and was restraining her feelings, unwilling to disobey her master.

So loyal and loyal, Jiang Wu both liked and felt distressed, and couldn't bear to tease her anymore, and said helplessly: "Hey! It's really a marriage of thousands of miles, who would have imagined that one is in the country of Jin, and the other is in the country of Yan, thousands of miles apart. How could the two of you know each other, and also have each other in each other's hearts?"

"Ma'am, you..."

"Don't worry, His Majesty the Kingdom of Jin already came to ask Ah Ying to marry you for Namu, that's why I came to ask you what you mean. The important matter of marriage is related to your life's happiness, and we don't want to delay you by acting hastily. .Now I just want to ask you one question, are you happy with Namu and willing to be with him?"

Ting Yu was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head deeply moved.

In fact, the master sent her directly to Namu just to make friends with Wenda Jiahun, and she had no complaints, even if she was given to an old man in his seventies, she would never resent the master.But the master didn't do that, but came to ask for her opinion.They are really thinking about her future, not on the surface, they really treat her as a human being.

Ting Yu was very thankful at this moment that she didn't plan to climb into the men's bed like those big maids in other mansions.

Because she believes at this time that as long as she does what she should do well, God will always arrange the best compensation.

"I... I don't know." Ting Yu couldn't wipe his face.

Jiang Wu smiled and said: "You don't know, but I do." He shook Ting Yu's hand and said, "Don't worry, I'll arrange this for you."

"Yes, the servant girl is all under Madam's arrangement."

Jiang Wu nodded in satisfaction.When it was time for lunch, I talked to Huo Shijiu.

After hearing this, Huo Shijiu laughed and said, "I think Namu is also sincere. Since you have made up your mind on this matter, leave the rest to you. It was Daying who came to ask me first."

"Well, you can be more careful, don't ruin the good marriage between Tingyu and Namu." Jiang Wu saw the cunning in Huo Jiujiu's eyes, and knew that he had calculations.

Huo Shijiu touched his nose innocently: "Am I that kind of person?"

"Aren't you? Your stomach is full of bad water." Jiang Wu gave him a white look.

Huo Jiujiu put his arms around Jiang Wu and said a lot of self-deprecating words.

In the afternoon, the sky that had just cleared up was cloudy again, and it was snowing heavily.

Huo Shijiu and Wenda Jiahun were sitting around the stove in the study in the outer courtyard, drinking tea and chatting, while Namu was poking behind Wenda Jiahun like a wooden stake.

Wenda Jiahui couldn't bear Namuna's seemingly hopeless eyes, so he could only ask: "Did you ask Jiang Wu about yesterday's incident?"

"I've asked. I'm about to tell His Majesty." Huo Shijiu looked at Namu and said, "Wu'er said that Ting Yu is the most capable person around her, and she is reluctant to marry her far away."

Hearing this, Namu felt that his heart was crushed on the ground, as if his entire chest had been hollowed out.The blood in the lost body seemed to be coagulated.

"but……"

"But what?" Namu asked eagerly without waiting for Huo Shijiu to finish speaking.

Huo Shijiu smiled and said: "But if he is really a good man who really cares about Tingyu and only cares for her once in his life, she will not deprive her of happiness."

Namu's emotions eased when he fell to the bottom, and he said anxiously: "Don't worry, my lord, I will never let Tingyu down. Today, Duke Zhongyong is here, and His Majesty is here too. I will never be in front of you two." The face is full of lies, and I think I will do what I say."

"Well. I believe you too. Your Majesty has always praised you." Huo Shijiu said slowly, "Then it's settled."

deal?What's the deal?
Namu's mind has stopped, and he can't reflect what it means for a while.

Wen Da Jiahui supported his forehead, "He is usually very clever, but now he is so stupid, don't get me wrong."

"Even if he is stupid, I believe that His Majesty uses human eyes. How can someone who is highly valued by His Majesty be so bad?"

When the two were talking, Namu understood completely, knelt down and bowed: "Thank you, Mr. Zhongyong, thank you, Your Majesty!"

Seeing the silly boy, Huo Shijiu and Wenda Jiahun looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

"Just make preparations, find a matchmaker some other day, and arrange the wedding. Let's live in the mansion now, and let her go back to the Kingdom of Jin with you when things happen in the future."

"Yes, thank you Zhongyong for your trust." Namu's voice trembled with joy.

Huo Shijiu and Wenda Jiahui were also infected by Namu's emotions, and they were much happier.

Just at this moment, Sixi's anxious and panting voice came from outside: "Grandpa, it's bad!"

"What's the matter?" Huo Jiu stood up abruptly, the first thing he thought of was Jiang Wu.

Sixi entered the room, saluted in a hurry, and said, "It's the news from outside that General Qiu is back! But because General Lu was not brought back, the emperor got angry and issued an edict to General Qiu in a rage. prison!"

"What?" The shock was not small, and Huo Jiujiu immediately felt his breath stuck in his chest, and he didn't recover for a long time.

General Qiu was ordered to take Lu Tianming. If he had followed the past and failed to complete what the emperor asked him to do, the emperor would have gotten angry and wanted to send one or two ministers away.However, in this critical moment, how can the little emperor do such a thing?

Originally, many ministers who had done things for the British government, or were worried about being misunderstood as the British public servants, were holding a wait-and-see attitude. The emperor did not do things that could calm people's hearts. Instead, he sent the ministers who did not complete the orders to prison. Wouldn't doing it chill the hearts of the people in the world?

In this way, who would dare to act for the emperor in the future?If you succeed, you may not be rewarded, but if you fail, you will be sent to prison. Who dares to serve the emperor?
Even if you get angry again, it is absolutely not advisable to do this. Why didn't the little emperor control his temper and make such a low-level mistake!
Wen Da Jiahui sneered: "The idiot is doing stupid things again."

"Your Majesty, I'll go out first." Huo Jiujiu hurriedly got up and ordered Sixi to change his clothes.

Wen Da Jiahui thought for a while and said, "Even if you want to speak up, don't be too direct."

Huo Shijiu paused and turned to look at Wenda Jiahun.
