Poisonous girl to marry

Chapter 361
Chapter 410 Nine

After Cao Yu finished speaking, he looked at Huo Shijiu questioningly.After all, others didn't know what happened outside the prison that day, but he and Huo Shijiu did.

Speaking of which, Huo Shijiu and the Ninth Prince had no direct conflict in the early years. Huo Nineteen was a treacherous minister, and the Ninth Prince was just an idle prince who ignored court affairs, and the two had very few opportunities to meet.In the only confrontation, the Ninth Prince was also thinking about Dayan Chao, and forced Huo Shijiu to issue a military order by taking advantage of Huo Shijiu's going to negotiate with the Kingdom of Jin to return the country.

Such a prince who doesn't care about serious things on weekdays, but occasionally does things for Dayan Chao, makes it difficult to associate him with people with wolfish ambitions.

Ordering someone to monitor Huo Shijiu could be interpreted as he was worried and worried that Huo Shijiu would do evil again.

Ordering someone to assassinate Huo Shijiu could also explain that there might be a misunderstanding between them.

However, instigating the little emperor to mobilize troops against the Kingdom of Jin at this moment will not only move his subjects, not to mention laboring the people and wasting money, but he will not be able to exchange any definite benefits for the Kingdom of Yan.

Ninth Prince, what is this going to do?
It wasn't just Huo Nineteen who was silent.Qiu Maogong and Jiang Xuewen looked at each other, but both were speechless.

"What is the Ninth Prince trying to do?" Qiu Maogong murmured, "How can we use troops against the Kingdom of Jin? Even if the emperor of the Kingdom of Jin is young, there is still a city behind it, Etenyi, which is not inferior to Nasuken." And after being corrupted by the British government for so many years, our national treasury is empty, and our talents are withered. If we can’t go to war without being very sure, we think it’s impossible.”

Jiang Xuewen pondered and said: "What you said is very reasonable. You understand, the emperor may not understand. Now it is only said that the Ninth Prince pushed the emperor, but he did not say that the emperor has agreed. Let's all stay calm."

"No, father-in-law." Huo Shijiu said solemnly: "Perhaps you and General Qiu don't know each other well, but I know the emperor's temperament best. The reason why the Ninth Prince persuaded the emperor to use troops against the Kingdom of Jin must be because of the weakness of the Kingdom of Jin. The emperor's Age, just like a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. And in his thinking, what he is best at is to defeat the enemy with a simple and rough blow. The emperor is also ambitious. If he keeps himself in a weak position, he will definitely not follow him. He needs it It is a victory, it is the word of mouth of the people in the world. If he can win the Kingdom of Jin, it will be a record of the emperor in the history books. The Ninth Prince probably hit the emperor's weakness."

"What you said is very true." Jiang Xuewen also nodded in agreement: "The old man just doesn't understand why the Ninth Prince would do this."

Yeah, why on earth?
Huo Shijiu fell into deep thought, and asked Cao Yu for a while, "Have you heard that the emperor agreed?"

Cao Yu said: "I haven't heard of it, but I haven't heard of the emperor's objection."

That is to say, the little emperor is very likely to listen to the words of the Ninth Prince, and with the current national strength of the Yan Kingdom, he will go to fight without the benefit of Wenda Jiahun's talk?
It was probably because Wenda Jiahun left him without saying goodbye before, and the little emperor was unwilling to condescend to inquire because of his dignity, so he hoped that Huo Nineteen would take the initiative to inquire?
Thinking about it this way, it is indeed possible.The little emperor only said that he was thinking of Yan Guo wholeheartedly, maybe he just wanted to use this method to force him to enter the palace to face the saint, it is unknown.

Huo Shijiu really hoped so, if so, at least it could show that the little emperor is not too stupid.

The three of them lost all interest in talking about state affairs.After Qiu Maogong left, Jiang Chenfeng pushed the wheelchair and sent Jiang Xuewen back to the Guest House.

Huo Shijiu didn't immediately return to Xiaoyi Academy as usual.Instead, he sat quietly on the arhat bed covered with official green mattresses by the window, in a daze.

Cao Yu was on the side, seeing Huo Shijiu's expression clearly.

"Grandpa, are you going to enter the palace?"

Huo Jiu raised his eyes and said with a wry smile, "Do you think I should go?"

Cao Yu shook his head.

"I'm a rough person. I don't know much about court affairs. I only know that in the current situation, it's wrong for you to stay in the mansion Ansheng, and it's also wrong to go into the palace."

"Yes, whatever you do is wrong." Huo Shijiu sighed deeply: "If you enter the palace, the emperor will think that I am troublesome. If you don't enter the palace, the emperor will think that I don't care about him and have no court affairs in my heart." .I am also in a dilemma."

"Since Master can understand everything, why bother yourself? I see that although you are with Madam these days, when you are alone, you always have a sad face. I think I am not the only one who can see that Madam is so smart. You can see it, but she doesn't ask, you can't go on like this, not only you are suffering, but even the wife is also feeling uncomfortable. What to do, we should have a conclusion. "

What Cao Yu said was exactly what Huo Shijiu was thinking.

Stay in Kyoto and hear all the news in time.Ignore it, worry in my heart, and ignore it, it is another torment.He was no longer trusted by the little emperor.It would be of no benefit to either of them to entangle.He has worked hard for so many years, clearing the British Duke for him, which can be regarded as his best effort.

It's time to leave too.

only……

Deep in Huo Shijiu's heart, he still has ambitions. l
When he was devoted to mountains and rivers in the past, it was the first emperor who met him several times, which awakened him and made him change from a person who only knew how to travel around mountains and rivers to letting time pass by.He can do something for Dayan Dynasty, despite the pain, he still feels fulfilled.

It's just unexpected.What he worked hard and insisted on became what he had to give up in the end.

"That's all. I will resign immediately." Whether to send troops or not is up to the emperor.He just spoke out to dissuade him, how could the emperor listen to him?
Saying it is in vain.

Huo Jiujiu got up and went to the desk, and ordered Sixi to come in and grind the paper.

Huo Shijiu picked up the Zihao pen and took a while to write.

Jiang Wu had just read the letter from the south, so she took Huo Chong, Qijin and Tianyou to play.

The wet nurse handed Tianyou, who was born one and a half months old, to Jiang Wu, and Jiang Wu patiently taught Huo Chong and Qijin, "This is your sister."

The two children, Huo Chong, are smarter, but very naughty, while Qi Jin is more sensitive and sensible. When they saw Tianyou, they could already call each other sister, and even climbed onto the arhat bed, squeezing Jiang Wu to look at the infant Tianyou. Even jealous Jiang Wu always hugs her sister and ignores them.

Jiang Wu now has both children and her body has recovered, and Huo Shijiu is often by her side. These days, she is satisfied and looks particularly good.

Ting Yu smiled at the side and said: "Madam's complexion is better now than when she first entered the mansion."

"I've been taking care of myself all day, except eating and sleeping. I pick up the best and send it here. Can I look bad?" Jiang Wu saw that Tianyou was sleepy.Let the wet nurse take all three children down.

Standing up and moving his shoulders, he said, "I'm fine now. I plan to practice as usual every day. I've seen your Kungfu always look like that, why don't you practice with me."

Ting Yu nodded hurriedly: "Practicing is not bad, it's just that Madam's body has just recovered, so don't be too anxious, just practice slowly."

Up to now, Jiang Wu herself still doesn't know that it will be difficult to have an heir in the future. Huo Shijiu once issued a strict order that no one is allowed to disclose this matter, and only a few of them know about it.So Jiang Wu still feels that she is just a normal phenomenon after premature birth...

Ting Yu's sympathy for Jiang Wu grew more and more, and he secretly thought that the prescription that he had found for his wife to take care of his body should be used in a timely manner.

Thinking like this, Luo Rui came in with a smile outside: "Ma'am, Si Xi just came and said that the father-in-law invited you to eat by yourself. He has something to do and needs to go out."

"Get out?" Jiang Wu was taken aback, subconsciously feeling that something was wrong.

After all, these days, they are used to being together day and night, even if Huo Shijiu wants to go out, he won't come back and talk to her.Unless it's something urgent.

"Where is Sixi now?"

Jiang Wu's voice lost the joking smile just now.

Seeing that her complexion was not good, Luo Rui also lowered her forehead and said: "Sixi just arrived at the gate of the courtyard, and went back after talking to the maidservant. At this moment, she should not have gone far. Madam wants to find his maidservant, so go after him .”

Jiang Wu thought for a while and said, "No, I'll go by myself. It just so happens that I haven't moved around for a long time. It's good to go out and breathe fresh air."

Ting Yu hurriedly said: "Let's go by car, this place is still far from the outer courtyard. Even if Madam can support her physically, Mr. Xu has already left the house?"

"It's true." Jiang Wu agreed to Ting Yu and ordered to prepare a small carriage for transportation.

When Ting Yu went out to make arrangements, she was worried that Jiang Wu would still not be able to catch up by car, which delayed the serious business.So they arranged for a little girl to rush forward to tell Huo Shijiu.

So Jiang Wu left Xiaoyi Academy, took a carriage, held a small hand stove, shrunk her face into the water-blue cloak with a white rabbit wind-fur collar, just walked forward for a while, and the carriage stopped slowly up.

Huo Shijiu raised the curtain of the car and said with a smile, "Why did you come out in such a cold day? If you want to ask me anything, just ask someone to call me, or it will be over."

Seeing his relaxed expression, Jiang Wu couldn't help but joked: "Come back if I call you? You don't mind, and I don't dare either."

"You, why don't you dare?" Huo Jiujiu scratched her nose with his index finger, and got into the carriage while speaking, and sat down next to Jiang Wu.

Hearing the rain, he ordered the driver and those who followed him to go further away so that the master could speak.

Jiang Wu leaned on Huo Shijiu's shoulder and asked, "Sixi said you have something to do when you go out?"

"Well." Huo Shijiu knew that Jiang Wu couldn't hide these things, so he simply didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "The Ninth Prince urged the emperor to send troops to the Kingdom of Jin. I saw that things were not going well, so I didn't want to pay attention to them at first, and I had already written a report to report to the old man. It’s just that if you think about it carefully, it’s been so many years. If you see the clues, if you don’t explain it to the emperor, it seems that you can’t bear it.”

"You are soft-hearted, and what he is handling is your soft-heartedness. If I were the emperor, seeing you angry and cold war with me, I would cause some trouble to make you worry about me."

"You mean the emperor did it on purpose?"
