One Curtain Wind Moon Nine Heavens

Chapter 166
Hou Shizi really wanted his sister-in-law to go out less, because her status could cause trouble too much.Look, just a few days after Duan Wang's son returned to Beijing, the two almost had a fight.

What's the matter?It doesn't matter if she offends one or two members of the royal family, but she can't offend a whole family!

"Second brother, you are giving up food because of choking," Yuan Zhao refused to accept, and analyzed, "What's wrong with offending the son of Prince Duan? Thanks to uncle's blessing, our whole family has offended all the people in the world, so why don't we die?"

"How can this be the same?" Hou Shizi was annoyed, "You are making unreasonable words!"

"I'm talking about reason," Yuan Zhao was always calm, but seeing that the second brother was still worried about his behavior when he was old, he had to lower his stance, "The second brother's intentions, the younger sister understands. In this way, I will try my best to be in the daytime next time." Go out and turn a deaf ear to any fighting, okay?"

"You don't go out, where is the sound of fighting? You have to be self-aware." Hou Shizi is not capable of fighting, she is willing to take a step back, he can make two steps, "Ning Duan Anle porridge, Mo Lian's meal, we Hou There are old and young in the house, and they can't stand the trouble, do you understand?"

Hearing this, how could Yuan Zhao not understand?Alas, I bowed to my second brother apologetically, and softened my tone:
"It's the younger sister's fault that made the second brother sad and anxious. But the second brother was too worried. I went out last night to hear the news about my father and the third brother. But I didn't hear anything, just eating and drinking. Having fun is not nutritious.

So I thought, there are a lot of foreigners coming to Beijing recently, maybe there is a place to inquire at the west gate, so I went over overnight to check..."

It was purely an accident to see the prince being assassinated, and it was definitely not deliberate.

"It's a pity that I went too late, and the teahouses and restaurants over there closed too early, so I got nothing." Yuan Zhao spread his hands, looking helpless, "From now on, I will try my best to keep a low profile and go out in disguise. .”

If the father and brother came back with news, they would usually go to Ximen, and she would always hear some news.

Seeing that he couldn't dispel the idea of ​​his sister-in-law going out, Hou Shizi sighed helplessly:

"Instead of pretending to be, it's better to pretend to be the original, so as not to be slandered by others, and you have a guilty conscience. Alas, if there is any news from my father and Chang Jia, the court will know it immediately. Why do you bother to inquire?"

Even if you find out, the source of the news may not be accurate.

"Father and brother are on an expedition, how can we sit comfortably? Why don't we go outside and experience the peace and joy of the people's livelihood." Yuan Zhao said as he entered the table, "Furthermore, I am from Fengjing, but I am like a visitor from outside. Isn't the fireworks in the world in my hometown in vain?"

"You always have a lot of reasons, but you have to think about the consequences." Hou Shizi also joined the table, chattering constantly, "Auntie is worried about you, so she didn't even eat breakfast."

Because she was worried about her, my mother didn't eat any rice this morning, so the big guy had to wait with her.

Jiang Shi, who was called by name for no reason, pursed her lips and smiled, said nothing, eating snacks in leisure time, happy to see this pair of brothers and sisters with a huge difference in age quarreling.

She had a good night's sleep last night, but when she woke up early in the morning, the people in the courtyard were all hiding the truth.

Until the sons and daughters of the various courts came to pay their respects, even the eldest son who was supposed to be on duty also came, but the biological daughter who usually came first to pay her respects disappeared, and she realized that something had happened.

Not yet panicked, the second son Zhonghe has already calmly told her that his sister-in-law saved the prince last night and is now telling the story of the cause and effect in the Zongzheng mansion to assist the court in catching the assassin.

His calm and composed expression was very soothing and made her feel at ease.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his daughter came back, he immediately revealed his true colors.The original composure was gone, and he panicked like something.

Good fight!How can brothers and sisters not quarrel?
Over the years, she has been worried that her daughter and second son will not get along.She and Master Hou will always grow old. In the future, only the brothers and sisters in the house can talk to her daughter.

If the siblings are separated, even if she dies, it will be difficult for her to rest in peace.

Besides the two brothers and sisters, Yuan Zhao won the battle against the second brother, just after taking a sip of water, he suddenly remembered something:
"By the way, second brother doesn't need to be on duty today?"

"Thanks to you, I will rest in advance and wait for your news at the mansion!" Hou Shizi said unhappily. Double your homework tonight!"

Puchi, seeing the faces of the little ones suddenly collapsed, the elders present chuckled lightly, but did not offer any words of comfort.Seeing this, Mrs. Jiang, who was sitting at the table, couldn't help showing a slight smile, as if the discomfort on her body was swept away.

As my daughter said, everything is fine when you are in a good mood.

……

At noon, in the imperial study, Emperor Feng Yuan casually wore a wide-sleeved cloak, coughing lightly from time to time.He crouched at his desk to review the memorial, while listening to the spies kneeling in the hall to report the news.

If Yuan Zhao heard it here, he would definitely be shocked.

Because of the news reported by the spies, it was her conversation with Hou Shizi this morning that was told to the emperor verbatim.After the report was finished, the spy left the study, and a man came out from the side hall, and sat down in front of a short table next to him, saying with concern:
"Father, you are just recovering from the cold, why don't you go back to the palace and rest, these memorabilia will be entrusted to the son-in-law."

He is the prince, and he has the responsibility to share the worries of his father.

Moreover, he was full of energy, without the slightest sign of loss of energy and blood, and there was no sign of serious injury from poisoning at all.

"Ahem..." The prince finished speaking, Emperor Feng Yuan coughed a few more times, leaned on the table with a tired face, and said in a slow tone, "What do you think about what happened last night?"

"I always think that Ah Zhao doesn't know about it," Fengqiu recalled what the spy said just now, "Besides, Si Jing also said when he visited Erchen's mansion this morning that he saw her in Wangdong Tower last night..."

Si Jing is the grandson of Prime Minister Meng and the nephew of Empress Dowager Meng. They belong to the same family, and they will never deceive the royal family because of Yuan Zhao.

Even if the two had a marriage contract, it was a matter of childhood.

"Azhao left Beijing since he was a child, and it's rare for him to come back for a long-term stay. It's reasonable to want to go around." Fengqiu analyzed, not realizing that there was a hint of pity in his tone, "If it was really the assassination arranged by her, why should she stay so far away? How to ensure that 'I' will run there?"

According to the waiter at the teahouse at the west gate, when "he" was assassinated, she was still standing in the teahouse.

"Hmph, in order to save your life, wouldn't it be more reasonable to set up a situation to allow yourself to be rescued?" Emperor Feng Yuan closed his eyes slightly, and said in a cold voice, "Prince, the wolf cub looks naive, but it is the offspring of a wolf after all. Sooner or later it will bite."

Fengqiu was slightly startled, and immediately understood what his father meant, he couldn't laugh or cry and said:
"I don't mean that, I just feel that only I know about the temptation against Ah Wu this time. Ah Zhao has only been back for a few days? Even if I know, it's too late to make arrangements. Besides, the schedule of 'my' that night is all determined by Ah Wu as he pleases." .

In terms of intentions, he is even more suspicious. "

Although the other party is his cousin, according to the news secretly sent back by Fengge, King Duan privately made armored crossbows and spears, and supported his troops with self-respect, not knowing what his intentions were.

The Beiyue clan is already a turtle in a urn, at most struggling to die, it is nothing to worry about.

But the actions of King Na Duan are more worthy of attention. After all, internal and external troubles have caused constant loss of soldiers and generals.I heard that Marquis Dingyuan occasionally felt unwell at the border, and his life and death were in danger.

When it comes to relatives, the imperial power is on the top, so we have to guard against it.
