Yijia Yishi

Chapter 366 Questioning
Mo Ju and Dongmei suddenly realized.

"So it's like this..." Mo Ju's face was full of smiles, and after Lu Shuyi explained a little, she understood Lu Shuyi's painstaking efforts, and said with a smile: "As expected, you still think too much."

Lu Shuyi smiled wryly, in a place like the palace, if you don't think too much, can you survive?
Not to mention the prince's disdain, that is He Ruyi, who is extremely difficult to deal with at first glance.

She has a sweet smile on her face, but she doesn't know how to make a sniper behind her back.

She felt shuddering when she thought about it, she only raised her hand to fiddle with the wick, and said lightly: "Clean up, let's rest earlier." Turning her eyes, she stared out of the window for a long time, called Mo Ju over, and lowered her voice in a low voice Said: "Tonight I always feel that something is wrong. The prince stayed us overnight. I'm afraid there is no purpose. You are guarding outside. No matter who it is, you are not allowed to let it in. Just say that I am unwell, unless the princess comes and let us go." She comes in."

"Then what if..." Mo Ju frowned, and said hesitantly, "What if the Second Young Master came suddenly?"

This is what Lu Shuyi is most afraid of.

If Huo Tianyou really came, even if there was nothing between them, Lord Huo might think there was something.

In the middle of the night, the lonely man and the widow went down to the melon field. Not to mention the loss of reputation, the people in the palace would look down on her.

In the future, if she wants to marry Huo Tianyou in an open and honest manner, it will be even more difficult.

I don't know if Huo Tianyou can see that this is a game, will he come tonight?
Lu Shuyi sighed slightly, facing the window, and leaned on the couch.

At that time, Huo Tianyou was talking with Lord Huo in the study.

This time, Huo Tianyou handled Huo Tiankang's affairs neatly and very well, even King Huo himself felt inferior.

It's a pity that he is the second son after all...

Lord Huo took a deep breath, and said lightly: "How did you handle your elder brother's matter? I was surprised that there was no trace left."

Huo Tianyou just smiled lightly, and didn't say how he dealt with it. He just changed the subject and said, "How did you come up with the idea of ​​playing chess with Miss Lu?"

As soon as King Huo mentioned playing chess, he regained his energy.

I have to say that Lu Shuyi is really good at playing chess. Although she is a girl, her chess moves are very clear and her layout is very delicate, she is not inferior to men at all.

This surprised him.

He didn't answer Huo Tianyou's question, but tapped his fingers on the desk and asked, "Do you know who taught her chess skills?"

Naturally, Huo Tianyou couldn't say it was taught by him in his previous life, and said with a light smile: "My son doesn't know either, maybe it was taught by the second master of the Lu family."

"Her father?"

Prince Huo was thoughtful, and after a long time waved his hand and said: "It's getting late, you go back..."

Huo Tianyou retreated slowly.

Lord Huo's heart trembled at the empty study room. Judging from his performance just now, Huo Tianyou had already started to have his own small world. He would easily avoid and refuse to answer the questions he asked. If it was something like this before is definitely not going to happen.

If he continues to be eccentric, I'm afraid this son will leave him sooner or later.

He leaned his head back on the chair back, and there was another sigh in the night sky.

In fact, he also knew in his heart that he was wrong from the very beginning, that he shouldn't trade one child's future for another.

However, all of this is irreparable, he has changed everything that can be changed, and there is no way to change it back.

He likes the eldest son because he likes the eldest son's mother, the woman he fell in love with at first sight...

Lord Huo tightly closed his eyes. For so many years, whenever he felt empty, he would think of the woman he loved so much.

Although he has never been short of women these years, there is only one woman who understands him.

Of course, he also knows that the woman who has been by his side these years is not easy, and he knows how much she has paid, but people are like this, there is always a preconceived feeling, and he will never see someone who is really good to him in front of him.

Lord Huo sighed slightly again, reached out and knocked on the desk a few times.

The door creaked, and she came in from the outside pretending to be a woman. The woman was covered with a veil, her voice was very low and hoarse, she cupped her hands and said, "Ah Xue knocked on the lord, I don't know what orders the lord has for calling A Xue into the mansion late at night. ?”

Lord Huo did not open his eyes, but closed his eyes and said slowly: "Today, there are distinguished guests from the palace, did you hear?"

The woman named A Xue lowered her eyes and replied: "A Xue has already heard about it, you want her to..."

"No, I don't want her life, I just want you to investigate her for a night, see who she has been in contact with, and what you have done this night, you have to report back to the king one by one... "

Axue nodded sharply: "Yes, Axue obeyed, please rest assured." After a short pause, she said: "Also, Axue has already investigated the matter that you asked Axue to investigate. The princess was poisoned|| It was indeed the work of the Eldest Young Master, and the second Young Master's injury was also caused by the Eldest Young Master, and the Eldest Young Master even bribed the Jiuhua Gang to hunt down the Second Young Master, but..." Her eyes moved slightly, and she secretly glanced at Lord Huo.

A pair of smart eyes are very beautiful, different from those cold-blooded killers, and she also knows that Lord Huo loves Huo Tiankang very much, so she always has some scruples about what to say next.

Prince Huo's forehead twitched slightly, but he didn't open his eyes. He just closed his eyes and said, "Don't hesitate, you know that this king doesn't like this way of speaking..."

Axue cupped her hands and said, "It's just that the eldest son failed to fight against the second son, and now the Jiuhua Gang has been used by the second son... and the second son has also noticed that the eldest son poisoned the princess. The eldest son himself does not know..."

How stupid is this...

The blue veins on Lord Huo's angry forehead jumped up one by one.

The more he hoped for the boss, the more he was disappointed in the end.

Brothers fighting each other is not what he wants to see, but as a big brother, being able to suppress brothers is considered a skill.

No matter whether it is to win over or suppress by means, at least one round should be won...

However, he didn't win a game, and he didn't even know that his game was broken.

What's more, he used such indecent tactics as poisoning to deal with a woman, which really humiliated him.

Lord Huo only felt that his chest was constricted and he couldn't breathe. He pinched the back of the chair with one hand, and patted the desk heavily with the other.

After venting in this way, I feel a little more comfortable, and feel that I have finally gone out in one breath.

"I know everything. You continue to stare at the two brothers. If there is any trouble, you will report to me immediately."

Ashue gave a calm "hmm".

Lord Huo waved his hands and closed his eyes again: "You go..."

Ashue backed out quietly again.

Lord Huo kept ordering people to invite Huo Tiankang over.

The weather is getting warmer these days, and Huo Tiankang's leg problems are also getting better. It's not like in the cold winter when he dare not go out, for fear that he won't be able to get out of bed due to the wind.

He Ruyi sat on the couch, her beautiful face became more ruddy and more beautiful under the glass cup, newlyweds, the two couldn't help biting their ears together.

He Ruyi didn't feel ashamed, let Huo Tiankang sit on his lap with her arms around her, with tassels wrapped around her fingers, and talked to Huo Tiankang about meeting Lu Shuyi during the day, "... I heard it was The third lady of the Lu family in Changle Town, the eldest wife of the Lu family is still our He family. Very beautiful..."

Huo Tiankang immediately smiled lightly and raised his hand to caress her cheek, saying sweetly: "Could it be more beautiful than my Ruyi? My Ruyi is the most beautiful woman in the world."

He Ruyi blushed immediately, feeling beautiful in her heart.

In fact, she didn't want to marry at the beginning of this marriage. After all, the Huo family came from a meritorious background. She always felt that such a family was too vulgar. Even the prince was a very rude prince.

How elegant are those who lead troops to fight?

However, after she met Huo Tiankang, she realized that it was not what she thought. This man was very gentle and considerate to her.

So she is very satisfied with this marriage now, she just wants to firmly secure her position as the Crown Princess, and if she secures this position, she will be the new princess in the future...

She smiled sweetly, and said coquettishly, "Don't be duplicity..."

"How could it be? These are sincere words from the bottom of my heart." Huo Tiankang grinned at He Ruyi.

Who knew that there was a servant girl outside who followed the window and reported in a low voice: "My lord, the lord sent someone to invite you over."

He Ruyi immediately got off Huo Tiankang's lap, frowned and said, "Why did father come to you so late? Could it be something urgent?"

She wondered, what could be the most important thing?

Huo Tiankang also frowned: "It's so late..." Thinking in his heart, he got up and sorted his clothes, and said softly to He Ruyi, "I'll come as soon as I go. If you're sleepy, you should rest first." Nian hurried out.

He Ruyi wasn't sure what was going on, so she hurriedly and quietly ordered someone to follow her to see...

Huo Tiankang strode to Lord Huo's study.

Master Huo just leaned on the chair with his eyes closed. There was no one else in the study, and the maids and mothers-in-law had already been dismissed.

In this way, the atmosphere is a bit heavy.

Huo Tiankang took a breath, first saluted Lord Huo, and said respectfully: "Why are you still not resting so late?"

"Rest?" Huo Wangye didn't even look at Huo Tiankang, but his tone was a little scary, different from the kindness in the past, it was a little more questioning: "Can I rest? Can I worry?"

Huo Tiankang frowned, feeling something was wrong.

Growing up so big, his father rarely scolded him. No matter what big mistakes he made, he was never severely punished.

But today's battle is not right...

Huo Tiankang faintly felt his scalp numb, so he said more carefully: "Could it be that the son did something wrong? Please ask the father to express it clearly, so that the son can correct it."

He lowered his eyebrows, looking very respectful.

Lord Huo took a deep breath. He always seemed very powerless in front of this son. Every time he saw him, he seemed to see the woman who had accompanied him for three springs and summers, and saw her tears before she died. , and struggled to say to him, "...this is our son, I... I can't watch him grow up anymore, I just hope that the prince can be more compassionate and loving, he will have no mother in the future, I hope... I hope that I can have my father's blessing in this lifetime, please, my lord... please agree to my concubine's death... I can rest in peace even if I die..."

How could he forget this situation?
He raised his hand and rubbed his face, opened his eyes to look at Huo Tiankang, and said in a deep voice after a long time: "Kang'er, let me ask you, have you ever done anything to be sorry for your second brother and your concubine mother?"

Huo Tiankang's forehead twitched, and he immediately understood Lord Huo's intention of calling him over late at night. It seems that he already knew about the matter of asking the Jiuhua Gang to get rid of Huo Tianyou, and he should also know about poisoning the princess. knew.

Huo Tiankang thought for a while, then lowered his head and said: "My son didn't do anything wrong to them, but my son felt that they were sorry to him..."

One sentence is sonorous and powerful, and I don't feel ashamed at all.

In his opinion, Huo Tianyou shouldn't exist in this world, and Bai Chuchu, who is she, why should he call her concubine mother?
His mother and concubine died long ago when she gave birth to him, and he would not recognize any other women.

"...If it wasn't for them, how could my legs be like this? If it wasn't for them, why wouldn't you be able to spare time to accompany me? If it wasn't for them, how could I never feel safe..."

Huo Tiankang didn't shy away from these things, and said in a cold tone: "Some things should be mine, but you insist on letting them be separated. How do you let me accept such a result?"

Lord Huo was speechless for a while, and after a long silence, he sighed: "I know you blame me for marrying a new princess and giving birth to a younger brother for you, I know you always blame me, but even In this way, you shouldn't tolerate blood relatives, brothers and sisters... Also, you actually use poisonous means to deal with Chuchu, she is not wrong, and she has been very kind to you since she was a child..."

"So what? Can she replace my biological mother? Just kidding, there is only one concubine mother in this world, and others are nothing to me." Huo Tiankang became emotional and said very coldly: "Use || So what about poison? Don’t tell me father, you don’t have very hot times?”

Master Huo supported his forehead, feeling that his mind was in a bad state.

He had never felt like a failure before.

Hearing Huo Tiankang's words, he felt sore and disappointed at the same time. The child he raised with one hand didn't look like him at all.

It seems that he spoiled this son.

He pinched the back of the chair with one hand, and his tone was a little angry: "But she is your concubine mother now, even if you refuse to admit it, she is still your concubine mother. This is a fact and cannot be changed..."
