lucky star girl

Chapter 164
Xu Shiqiu would accompany Dong Shu to Empress Hu's place first, because he wanted her to support him.

Early this morning, he received a message from his brother-in-law about what the bearded and long-faced general said in prison yesterday.

Since others have already involved him, he naturally needs to make some preparations.

Dong Shu didn't know so many things. Ever since she heard that Xu Shiqiu was involved in the life lawsuit, she had been worried all the time, which made Empress Hu very distressed.

The relationship between people comes from getting along with each other. Dong Shu is sincere to Queen Hu, and Queen Hu naturally treats Dong Shu with sincerity.

Xu Shiqiu was Dong Shu's husband-in-law, and now that something happened to him, Queen Hu naturally couldn't ignore it.

Because Empress Hu was also going, the group of them was delayed for a while, and when they arrived at Emperor Ruikang, King Duan had already arrived.

Seeing that the queen was also coming, not only King Duan, but also Emperor Ruikang stood up to greet him in person.

"Why is Zitong here?" Emperor Ruikang has always felt guilty towards Empress Hu. The older he gets, the more fierce the struggle between his sons will be, and Emperor Ruikang misses the time when the prince was still there.

Because of this feeling, he was more sincere to Empress Hu than to other women in the harem.

But in Empress Hu's view, if she could, she would rather not have Ruikangdi's sincerity towards her, but also exchange for her son.

At this moment, Empress Hu's expression was not good. Seeing that King Duan was also there, she nodded to Emperor Ruikang in a rare way, and then said directly: "I heard that Shiqiu was framed, so I came to see it."

As soon as Queen Hu said this, King Duan looked at his brother helplessly.

Sister-in-law Huang's words directly judged the confessions of the two people as 'framing', and based on the guilt of brother-in-law Huang's sister-in-law, maybe they will take advantage of the trend.

After sighing in his heart, King Duan took the initiative to tell Queen Hu what was going on.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Empress Hu snorted coldly and said, "Let's not talk about whether Shiqiu participated in this matter. If these two people are not self-righteous, or others want to calculate, they can't figure it out!"

Everyone knew that Empress Hu was right. King Duan glanced at the elder brother above him and saw that he was silent, so he could only continue: "Sister-in-law Huang is right, but this matter involves a lot, and now she is outside the palace. The common people are talking about it, if it is not handled well, it will have a certain impact on the reputation of the emperor."

When Emperor Ruikang saw that King Duan had said this, he had no choice but to stop talking, "Yes, Zitong. Besides, today I just called Shiqiu to ask, don't worry." After saying this, Emperor Ruikang saw Queen Hu's After looking better, he continued: "It happens that Zi Tong is here, so listen to me by the way, I will deal with it fairly."

Empress Hu understood that she could support Xu Shiqiu in today's matter, but it was difficult for her to do more.

So after hearing Emperor Ruikang's words, Empress Hu nodded in satisfaction, then looked down at Xu Shiqiu and said, "Shiqiu, you can say whatever the Holy Majesty and King Duan ask you later. Don't worry, I'm here , no one dares to frame you."

Listening to Empress Hu mentioning the word 'framing' again, Emperor Ruikang and King Duan didn't know what to say.

Xu Shiqiu also understands that Empress Hu has done so much for herself today for the sake of her little lady, so naturally he will not be ignorant of what is good or bad.

Thinking in this way, Xu Shiqiu also respectfully saluted Emperor Ruikang and Empress Hu, and then saluted King Duan.

Seeing that Xu Shiqiu was not arrogant and defiant because of Queen Hu's support, King Duan also nodded in satisfaction, and then said that the bearded and long-faced general confessed to him in prison yesterday.

"When the two of them were caught in the flower building, they were separated all the time, and they didn't have any chance to collude with each other. But they both mentioned you one after another yesterday. So I want to ask you, what's your opinion on this matter? I want to talk." After saying this, King Duan glanced at Queen Hu from the corner of his eye, thought for a while and explained: "Originally, this king wanted to go to your house to ask you, but he just learned that you just entered the palace this morning, so I decided I will call you to Brother Huang for questioning."

Seeing that King Duan had taken all this matter on himself, Emperor Ruikang nodded in satisfaction, and looked at Xu Shiqiu with a smile that he thought was kind.

Although Xu Shiqiu knew about this in advance, when he heard King Duan's words, he still showed a shocked expression, but in an instant, the shock on his face turned into a helpless and understanding expression.

Seeing that Xu Shiqiu's expression changed so quickly in such a short while, King Duan, Emperor Ruikang and Empress Hu were also a little puzzled.

"It's not surprising that the two of them will bite out the minister." When Xu Shiqiu opened his mouth, he attracted everyone's attention. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Xu Shiqiu simply said that he had arrived at the military camp in the suburbs of Beijing Afterwards, it was an embarrassing thing to be squeezed out by them.

"These things, I didn't intend to say it. The Holy One can give me this opportunity to let the minister show his ambition. It is already the Holy One. But I never thought that even now, the two of them still don't forget Climbing minister."

As soon as Xu Shiqiu's words came out, Emperor Ruikang and King Duan's expressions became ugly.

Emperor Ruikang felt that it was his own arrangement that Xu Shiqiu would go to the military camp in the suburbs of Beijing, and it was also his arrangement to maintain the balance of the military camp in the suburbs of Beijing.

But he didn't expect that those generals in the military camp in the suburbs of Beijing would dare to make things difficult for him.

As for King Duan, the military camp in the suburbs of Beijing has military generals who followed him before, and those people still have the label of King Duan on them.

But he didn't expect that these people would dare to join forces to embarrass Xu Shiqiu.

Xu Shiqiu has been paying attention to the expressions of Emperor Ruikang and King Duan. Seeing their expressions like this, a smile appeared on his face at the right time and said: "But I didn't let them oppress me. After these few months, I have already used With my own ability, the generals saw that I was not just a master of the family. Except for those generals, there were still some people in the barracks who disliked me. I didn't take this kind of thing to heart at first, but I didn't think of it. , these two people will actually quarrel with me."

After saying this, Xu Shiqiu sighed and continued: "Shang Mingjian, you must be clear about my temperament. What's more, even if I don't like them, I just want to train soldiers well and win through confrontation. It is absolutely impossible for them to do such a thing." After thinking for a while, Xu Shiqiu continued with a foolish smile, "Besides, even if I have the heart and ability to plot against them like this."

As soon as Xu Shiqiu said this, King Duan immediately looked at Emperor Ruikang who was above him.

This is also what he was puzzled about.

In fact, he didn't know exactly what Xu Shiqiu's temperament was.

But he was familiar with Xu Shiqiu's father, Xu Zhenbei, and based on King Duan's brotherhood towards Xu Zhenbei, he would never believe that his son would do such a thing.

What's more, Xu Shiqiu was right. Even if he had the intention, he didn't have the ability to plot against the two of them like this.

Emperor Ruikang had the same idea as King Duan, Xu Shiqiu had a good father, and Emperor Ruikang knew Xu Zhenbei's temperament very well.

Thinking of the General Zhen Guo back then, Emperor Ruikang looked at Xu Shiqiu with a much gentler look than before.

"Shiqiu, you did a good job. I also heard from King Duan about this confrontation. Your soldiers performed very well." Emperor Ruikang looked at Xu Shiqiu, and after he finished speaking, he thought for a while and continued. He said: "However, I still have to make it clear. I sent you to the military camp in the suburbs of Beijing to train you. It's just that I didn't expect that they are not as capable as you, and they still hate you so much."

As soon as Emperor Ruikang said this, Xu Shiqiu understood that this matter had nothing to do with him.

He hadn't pointed out the embarrassment of those people in the military camp in the suburbs of Beijing before, in order to say it when something like today happened.

Because of his patience all the time, Emperor Ruikang and King Duan must not embarrass themselves anymore. After all, those who have embarrassed themselves have their confidantes.

Seeing that Xu Shiqiu cleared up the 'framing' with a few words, Empress Hu felt better.

However, Empress Hu thought that she could have talked to Dong Shu for a long time, but now that Xu Shiqiu was summoned by Emperor Ruikang, this time was gone.

Thinking that they were going home now, Empress Hu's face turned ugly again.

Emperor Ruikang also guessed why Queen Hu was unhappy, so he readily gave Xu Shiqiu some rewards, which can be regarded as compensation for what happened today.

Xu Shiqiu understood that Emperor Ruikang would be like this because of Empress Hu, so before leaving the empress, he quickly looked at Empress Hu and said: "Today, I have something to do at home, so I will go back with my lady first. Tomorrow, I will be at home, and I will send my lady in early in the morning." The palace visits the empress."

When Queen Hu heard Xu Shiqiu's words, she immediately nodded in satisfaction.

It's just that Queen Hu and Xu Shiqiu didn't expect that they thought well, but they didn't have a chance to enter the palace the next day.

Because in the early morning of August [-]th, before dawn, the Jiang family came to report the funeral.
