"Master, I know you are worried, but you can't go on like this, don't let the old man and madam find you, you will fall down by yourself!" Cao Yuduan put the bird's nest with rock sugar on the small table early and kept it in the warm cover Porridge, said: "You can't break your body even for the sake of your wife and the old man!"
"Where else can I eat!" Huo Shijiu pushed away the four-color enamel-colored Fu Lu Shou Xi bowl, many things were intertwined in his mind, and when he hadn't rested for the past two days, his thoughts were chaotic. .He couldn't figure it out, he couldn't figure it out, which made him more and more anxious, "There was a fight outside the city, and the dead and casualties were all dead. It's likely that they are in danger at this moment. Could it be that they were arrested? Parents are old, so what's the matter?" The old and the young in the group, A Ming still carries seven catties, and Wu'er is still pregnant..."
Huo Shijiu closed his eyes, put his elbows on the table and supported his forehead, and said helplessly, "If the sky is not closed and they have troubles, then I have no intention of living."
"Master..." Cao Yu pondered, but couldn't find anything to persuade him.
He asked himself, if this matter was left on him, he would have gone crazy long ago.For the past two days, he couldn't find anyone or get news, Huo Shijiu was so anxious that he didn't eat or sleep, and many gray hairs suddenly appeared on his temples.He is also a caring person, and what he misses most is family love.If something happened to his real family, he was afraid that he would go crazy.
"That's it."
When Cao Yu was meditating, Huo Shijiu had already picked up the bowl, scooped up a spoonful of bird's nest porridge with rock sugar and put it into his mouth.In the past two days, he developed several aphthous sores in his mouth, and it hurts to eat the porridge, but he forced himself to finish a bowl.
"It is estimated that there will be a follow-up to this matter soon. If the parents and Wu'er are really arrested, most likely the other party will come to negotiate with me. If something really happens, I'm afraid there should be a letter. For the time being, I only think about the good. If people are kidnapped and I collapse without eating or drinking, who will save them."
"You're right to say that!" Cao Yu was deeply impressed by his will, and said in relief, "Madam is not an ordinary woman, and the person we ordered to take away is not an idiot, and there are still three dead men missing from the corpses. That is to say, these three people are fine. Although they may escape alone, based on my understanding of them, they are all very loyal to the Lord, so the chance of escaping alone is not high. Most of them are following Madam at this moment. Moreover, as long as the madam is fine, the old master, the great madam, and the second master will be fine."
What Cao Yu analyzed was exactly what Huo Shijiu was thinking at this time.
With Jiang Wu's temperament, if there is any danger, she will definitely sacrifice her life to protect her family. She would rather perish together than leave his parents and relatives to ignore him and live in an ignoble existence.So if Jiang Wu is fine, most of the family members are fine.If something happened to the family, Jiang Wu might not be alive anymore.Moreover, in such a fight, the casualties were so heavy, one can imagine how intense and tense the situation was at that time, could Jiang Wu not make a move?
She is still pregnant, and she wants to take such an adventure, I don't know what is going on with her now.
The thoughts that had been going through my mind countless times these days came to the fore again. Huo Shijiu controlled himself not to think too much, otherwise he would drive himself crazy and think about other things instead: "Say, there are many people outside our house. A group of surveillance people?"
"Exactly." Cao Yu said: "I didn't say it before, I didn't know for sure, but now looking at their behavior and secrets, they really look like people from Dongchang. I just looked at them and didn't spread the word Few of the guards in our mansion know about it, there are a few or two who came to tell me, and I only told them not to make it public, so I came to tell Lord Hou, please show me."
Huo Shijiu pondered, who can cultivate such a master who is comparable to Dongchang fanzi?Even some of the many guards raised in his mansion didn't notice it.Moreover, these people have only recently been added, and they have just been confirmed.
"I haven't heard anything about the East Factory recently."
"Yes."
"Whether it's Dongchang or not, the timing of these people's appearance is too coincidental. Wu'er and the others just disappeared, and these people appeared outside our house." Huo Shijiu tapped his index finger on the table, his mind spinning , A kind of speculation came to his mind, and he was immediately startled with cold sweat all over his back.
Will not!It won't be his! !He is aware of the emperor's dependence and trust on him, and he also knows his position in the emperor's mind. The fans of Dongchang are supposed to do these things. Maybe the British Duke ordered them to come to their house for surveillance The matter is also unknown!
Huo Shijiu was thinking like this, but there was another voice in his heart saying: It has not been a day or two since he had feuded with the British public. It is possible that the British public was so slow that it was only recently that he thought of sending a wave of more powerful spies. ?
The calmness on Huo Jiu's face could not be seen to appease his anger, only his clenched white fingertips revealed his thoughts.
Cao Yu has always been careful about Huo Shijiu's affairs. Seeing him like this, he knew that he might have guessed in his heart.
For the past two days, Huo Shijiu lived a life like hell, which was enough to kill him.He must not make things worse at this time. You must know that even if you are as strong as Huo Shijiu, you will panic when you encounter family members and Jiang Wu. His nerves are already so tight that he can't bear any more. Just one more thing can make him completely collapse.
Cao Yu considered his words, and said softly: "The Lord said earlier that he was going to Yi County, and I said to wait, but after waiting, there is no news yet, and I am also worried that it will be delayed, why don't I accompany you to Yi County to see See? After all, those things are all about listening to people, it’s easier to analyze them than seeing them with your own eyes.”
"You're right." Huo Shijiu came back to his senses and said with force: "I haven't paid my respects to the emperor for a few days. If I rashly leave the city, I'll go to Yi County. I'm afraid the emperor will think too much. Mo Ran, you Come with me into the palace, see what the emperor has to say, and go out after making sure everything is fine."
"Of course it's good. But should Master Hou take care of it?"
Following Cao Yu's gaze, Huo Shijiu looked down at the wrinkled robe on his body, touched his chin with stubble, and didn't close his eyes or eat for two days, let alone wash, change and comb his hair. The son is now black and blue, looks haggard, and has lost a lot of weight. In addition, his clothes are sloppy and his beard is unshaven. It is really not good to have such a face.
But what does it matter?
"Let's go like this." Huo Shijiu said thoughtfully.
Perhaps, there are still people who want to see him like this.
When Huo Jiujiu entered the palace, the little emperor was leading the little eunuchs to play with kites outside the bedroom.
The sky that had just rained was now blue, and the air was filled with the faint fragrance of green grass and fragrance. The little emperor was running and laughing while pulling the string, looking very jubilant.
Huo Shijiu watched from afar the little emperor's light yellow robe with folded branches, pearls and dragon and phoenix patterns shining under the empty sky. Compared with his haggard and haggard appearance, the emperor was like a bud in early spring, while he seemed to be about to Withered crumbling leaves.
"Your Majesty, Marquis Jinning is here."
After hearing the little eunuch's reply, the little emperor smiled and looked in Huo Jiujiu's direction.In fact, he had already seen someone out of the corner of his eye just now, but he didn't want to take the initiative to speak.
However, the closer Huo Shijiu got closer, the more clearly the little emperor could see his haggardness. Surprised, he almost let go of the kite string in his hand.Thanks to the little eunuch named Xiaolu beside him, he had quick eyesight and quick hands, and he firmly grasped the kite string.
Just when Xiaolu jumped lightly, Cao Yu, who was following behind Huo Jiujiu, looked at him thoughtfully.
The little emperor came up to greet him: "Brother Ying, are you here? How did you make it look like this?"
Looking at the black eyes under his eyes, the little emperor couldn't help frowning: "Didn't you sleep well? I haven't seen you in the palace for the past two days, so I thought you were resting at home. Why, everyone with you is dead ? Don’t you know how to serve you well!”
Huo Shijiu bowed to the little emperor, shaking a little.
The little emperor hurriedly supported him with both hands, and when he saw Huo Shijiu like this, he turned around and ordered: "Go and prepare hot water, and wait for Lord Hou to wash and change clothes. Call the imperial physician to come into the palace!"
"Observe the order." The palace man retreated in response.
Huo Jiujiu shook his head, and said in a hoarse and tired voice: "Your Majesty, you don't have to be busy, I don't want to do anything right now. I have something to do at home, so I haven't come to see the Emperor for two days."
Hearing the words "something happened at home", the little emperor's expression became a little bit different, his jaw tightened and he said with great concern: "What happened?"
Huo Shijiu shook his head, and entered the palace together with the emperor. The little emperor sat at the head. Huo Shijiu stood with his chest bowed, and replied weakly: "Originally, my parents and family thought that the current situation is very good and the weather is warm. , is going to the south for fun. The minister discussed and asked someone to accompany him. The emperor also knew Zhuo Jing's temperament, and he was the most filial one. If he didn't worry about his parents, he should accompany them for a certain distance and send them to Yi County. Just came back. But it was only such a short distance, and something happened!"
"Ah?!" The little emperor exclaimed in surprise, "What happened?"
"They have not been heard from, and the bodies of the accompanying guards were found outside the city. I think, maybe the parents and family members have suffered a tragic accident."
The little emperor frowned, and thoughtfully said: "Brother Ying, don't be too anxious, maybe something has delayed it? Besides, a character like an overlord like my sister would not care about her family. I can't guarantee it." There must be something stuck."
Huo Jiujiu shook his head, his beautiful eyes kept sizing up the expression of the little emperor, under the bright sky, not a single subtle expression of the little emperor escaped his eyes.
He didn't think too much about it.It was just after entering the palace today, that something was wrong with the emperor.
First the exaggerated surprise at seeing him, then the unnatural exclamation when he said his family was gone, and what he said.
As usual, when the little emperor heard such news, the first thing he would think was whether it was done by the British Duke.The second will be anxiously spinning all over the ground, and will take his anxiety as his own anxiety.
But today, the little emperor comforted him like this, asking if there was any delay.
In fact, Huo Shijiu couldn't find out what was wrong with saying this, but he knew too well the child he had watched grow up, and knew too well what his every expression represented.
He looked really flustered.
All right, why is he panicking?
Huo Shijiu remembered what Cao Yu said just now - there was an extra watchman outside the Hou's mansion, and his actions were similar to those of the Dongchang people.
Once he had this guess and carefully observed the current situation, Huo Shijiu would have [-] reasons to believe that his guess was correct.
Heartache, shock, and unspeakable colic pain spread in the chest cavity, and the heart twisted, as if an invisible big hand was grasping fiercely, trying to tear that small piece of flesh in half.
Huo Shijiu's eyes turned black, and he clutched his chest in pain.
"Brother Ying!" The little emperor exclaimed, and he and Cao Yu supported Huo Shijiu who was on the verge of falling, let him sit in an armchair, and then turned around and shouted: "Don't rush, quickly call Imperial Physician Du and Imperial Physician Liu!"
"Yes, yes!" The little eunuch in front of the door saw that the emperor's face changed in a hurry, his voice was so stern, he thought that something was wrong with Marquis Jin Ning, and hurried away.
Huo Shijiu has recovered a little now, the severe colic has disappeared, leaving only the cold sweat all over his body, which drenched his back.
"Grandpa, how are you doing?"
"Brother Ying, are you alright?"
Huo Shijiu shook his head, "I'm fine, I'm just hungry. What the emperor said just now is very true, maybe it's really delayed." He lowered his forehead and lowered his eyes, and continued: "This is the end of the matter, there is no use in worrying. My minister I'm just waiting for news, whether there is an accident or something is delayed, we should know soon."
Only then did the little emperor feel relieved, and said with a smile on his face: "Yes, it will definitely be fine. Brother Ying, calm down, since he is hungry, I asked them to prepare something casually, and it happened that I was also hungry, so Brother Ying accompanied me. Let me have something to eat together. Now it's better to go wash and take care of it first, look at your appearance, alas! The imperial doctor will come to take a look later."
Having said that, the little emperor worriedly held Huo Jiujiu's sleeves with both hands, "Brother Ying, for the sake of the country and the country, you must take care of yourself, I can't live without you by my side."
Huo Shijiu avoided the serious and took the light, and said apologetically, "It's really my negligence to be so embarrassing and unsightly."
"Brother Ying, why should you be so polite? I don't care what you are. You are what you are. Aren't you all my Brother Ying? I'm really worried that Qi Jin will be shocked by your slovenly appearance."
The little emperor was just joking unintentionally.But when it stopped in Huo Shijiu's ears, it was another matter.The next time I see Qijin again, don't say it's a shock, I'm afraid the children won't know him as a father.
Think about the family members who have not heard from him, and look at the emperor who smiled reluctantly in front of him. He was a little confused for a moment, and he didn't know why he persisted until today.If you promised the late emperor, can it still be done?
Huo Shijiu didn't want his inner fluctuations to be shown in front of others, so he got up and asked the little eunuch to take care of washing, shaving and combing his hair. Buckle with gold inlaid sapphire.
Changed clothes properly, even if he was haggard, Huo Shijiu was still as chic as a tree facing the wind and the moon in his arms.The little emperor looked pleasing to the eye, and affectionately pulled him to sit down and talk, and when the imperial doctor came to check his pulse, he just said that Huo Shijiu was exhausted from Yousi and was fine.
As a result, both the little emperor and Cao Yu heaved a sigh of relief.
The imperial doctor went outside to prescribe prescriptions and medicines, and the little emperor immediately ordered someone to decoct medicines for Huo Jiujiu.
Huo Shijiu hurriedly stopped him and said, "Your Majesty, there has been no news from Yixian County. I plan to go out of Beijing to see for myself. I won't use the medicine in the palace. It won't be too late when the matter is over and Li Zai takes the medicine. The most urgent thing now is this top priority. Otherwise, how can I rest in peace? I also ask the emperor to grant me a few days of vacation."
He wants to go in person?
The little emperor was a little anxious, and blurted out: "Brother Ying, don't go. Things are like this in the capital now. Our second plan has been implemented a few days ago. The British public security may find something, and it is uncertain when it will be ordered." Attack me. It is the time when I am employing people, without you by my side, what should I do?"
The little emperor grabbed Huo Jiujiu's sleeve, like a child cheating on his father, the dependence in his expression and the request in his words made Huo Shijiu's heart palpitate.
Maybe it's because I'm already prepared against him in my heart, and I don't trust him wholeheartedly like before.Listening to the emperor's words now, he would think of several possibilities, such words that would make him feel comfortable in the past, but today make him feel selfish.
It is true that there is such a saying that "the king must die, the minister must die".But how could he and the emperor be just simple monarchs and ministers?
The emperor is also a human being, and he doesn't have a hard heart. Could it be that he can't keep warm at all?
"Your Majesty, what you said is reasonable." Huo Shijiu said wearily: "The matter of the Duke of England is indeed urgent, so I am anxious to get Wu'er back. After all, this plan was thought up by her, and she did the main thing. The third link is really the key, without her, I think it would be very difficult for the British Duke to get the bait, and it would be very difficult to lure him into the trap."
The little emperor nodded earnestly, without moving his expression.
Huo Shijiu said again: "Originally, when she went out, she just sent her parents to Yi County and then turned back. There would be no delay in serious business. Now that her whereabouts are unknown, how can the plan be carried out?"
The little emperor chewed on these words, and then analyzed Huo Shijiu's daily behavior, and suddenly felt that what he said was the truth, and Jiang Wu didn't follow him out to hide...
"Brother Ying..." The little emperor subconsciously opened his mouth, only to realize that his tone was very wrong when he made the sound.
He is the king of a country, how he makes a decision, the courtiers can only obey, and cannot distinguish.Not to mention if he did anything wrong.Could it be that before he did such suspicious things for his courtiers, didn't he consider Long Yan's anger?With Jiang Wu's skills, it's not easy to stay at home peacefully, but to go out and walk around.
Originally, he didn't intend to participate in this matter at all.
But just now, in Huo Shijiu's words, he even said that the Huo family was out to play.If you haven't told him the truth until now, you can't blame him.
After the complicated mood, the little emperor spoke with full confidence: "Since Brother Ying said so, I don't want to keep you in the capital. You can go to Yi County. Just remember to come back soon, don't forget Kyoto City still has serious things to do."
In this way, the little emperor's dissatisfaction has been clearly expressed.
If it is placed on an ordinary courtier, he will kowtow and salute immediately to plead guilty.
Huo Shijiu acted as if he hadn't noticed it, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding. Your Majesty also said that my parents are both kind and honest people, and they are all blessed. I just borrowed this auspicious word from my Majesty, my heart I believe they are safe and sound."
This sentence sounds like he is comforting himself.
But in front of the little emperor, Huo Dashuan's simple and honest smile and Zhao's loving and gentle smile appeared.
Previously, the other courtyard was destroyed. Before he returned to the palace, he lived in Huo's house for a while.Although Huo Dashuan had no education, he was a very honest and honest man. His family was not willing to enjoy the prosperity and wealth, so he spent his whole day growing vegetables, raising chickens and pigs for fun. He took him to help in the fields and taught him a lot about farming. He loves him like a nephew, he won't say compliments against his will just because he is the emperor, but he really cares about him, remembers his favorite dishes, and always puts them in front of him when eating.Mrs. Zhao also sewed his torn sleeves and made shoes for him.Although the pair of shoes are not very good-looking, they are very comfortable to wear. Huo Shijiu's younger brother is an honest scholar, and Huo Shijiu's younger sister is a carefree and cheerful woman...
There is also Jiang Wu, the heroine-like character who became famous in Huang Yushan and was born and died in order to help Huo Shijiu.
These people all died because of his anger.
At this moment, the little emperor was actually not sure whether the people he sent were successful, because no one survived this time.But he thought, these people are the best among the elites, so why can't they do this?Secretly, he also knew that Jiang Wu was pregnant again.
When it came to a real fight, it was impossible for her not to make a move.If a pregnant woman wants to fight with others, she may lose half of her life if she does not die.
Now the little emperor feels a little guilty.
He also wondered if he had made a wrong decision in a flash of his head. If it was as Huo Shijiu said, Jiang Wu didn't plan to leave the capital and stop interfering in this matter. It wasn't Huo Shijiu who arranged for everyone to How about going out to take refuge?
"……emperor?"
"Ah?" The little emperor came back to his senses, "Brother Ying, what did you say?"
"I'm asking, what is the emperor thinking? Why does it seem to be very contradictory." Huo Shijiu had already understood it, and asked knowingly.
The little emperor shook his head and said with a smile: "It's nothing, Brother Ying, don't worry, the old man and the wife are blessed people, how can a few little assassins kill them? I will arrange people from Jin Yiwei to go with you later. They originally It's your people, and they cooperate with you tacitly, so it's important to get my sister back as soon as possible."
"Yes, sir, thank you for your kindness."
The little emperor actually forgot that he just ordered someone to prepare lunch for Huo Shijiu to share, so he let him go...
Outside the palace gate, Huo Shijiu lifted up the window screen, and looked at the resplendent palace through the light blue tassels hanging down.He murmured: "After all, it's still where it is today."
Cao Yu called out worriedly, "Master?"
"Let's go. No matter what, if you want to see people, you need to see dead bodies." When Huo Shijiu said this, his smile was more ironic, "Fortunately, what the emperor just said made me sure that he also I don’t know if the parents are gone or not. This shows that there is still room for improvement in the situation.”
Cao Yu pursed his lips. Just now, the emperor's incoherent, flustered and contradictory appearance, and the fact that the assassin was not careful in the end, was not a bandit road tyrant or other accidents, it had already proved their previous guess.
"Master, if he is like that, will you continue to be for him?"

"Master, I know you are worried, but you can't go on like this, don't let the old man and madam find you, you will fall down by yourself!" Cao Yuduan put the bird's nest with rock sugar on the small table early and kept it in the warm cover Porridge, said: "You can't break your body even for the sake of your wife and the old man!"
"Where else can I eat!" Huo Shijiu pushed away the four-color enamel-colored Fu Lu Shou Xi bowl, many things were intertwined in his mind, and when he hadn't rested for the past two days, his thoughts were chaotic. .He couldn't figure it out, he couldn't figure it out, which made him more and more anxious, "There was a fight outside the city, and the dead and casualties were all dead. It's likely that they are in danger at this moment. Could it be that they were arrested? Parents are old, so what's the matter?" The old and the young in the group, A Ming still carries seven catties, and Wu'er is still pregnant..."
Huo Shijiu closed his eyes, put his elbows on the table and supported his forehead, and said helplessly, "If the sky is not closed and they have troubles, then I have no intention of living."
"Master..." Cao Yu pondered, but couldn't find anything to persuade him.
He asked himself, if this matter was left on him, he would have gone crazy long ago.For the past two days, he couldn't find anyone or get news, Huo Shijiu was so anxious that he didn't eat or sleep, and many gray hairs suddenly appeared on his temples.He is also a caring person, and what he misses most is family love.If something happened to his real family, he was afraid that he would go crazy.
"That's it."
When Cao Yu was meditating, Huo Shijiu had already picked up the bowl, scooped up a spoonful of bird's nest porridge with rock sugar and put it into his mouth.In the past two days, he developed several aphthous sores in his mouth, and it hurts to eat the porridge, but he forced himself to finish a bowl.

If people are kidnapped and I collapse without eating or drinking, who will save them."
"You're right to say that!" Cao Yu was deeply impressed by his will, and said in relief, "Madam is not an ordinary woman, and the person we ordered to take away is not an idiot, and there are still three dead men missing from the corpses.

What Cao Yu analyzed was exactly what Huo Shijiu was thinking at this time.

She would rather perish together than leave his parents and relatives to ignore him and live in an ignoble existence.So if Jiang Wu is fine, most of the family members are fine.If something happened to the family, Jiang Wu might not be alive anymore.Moreover, in such a fight, the casualties were so heavy, one can imagine how intense and tense the situation was at that time, could Jiang Wu not make a move?

"Of course it's good. But should Master Hou take care of it?"
Following Cao Yu's gaze, Huo Shijiu looked down at the wrinkled robe on his body, touched his chin with stubble, and didn't close his eyes or eat for two days, let alone wash, change and comb his hair. The son is now black and blue, looks haggard, and has lost a lot of weight. In addition, his clothes are sloppy and his beard is unshaven. It is really not good to have such a face.

"Observe the order." The palace man retreated in response.
Huo Jiujiu shook his head, and said in a hoarse and tired voice: "Your Majesty, you don't have to be busy, I don't want to do anything right now. I have something to do at home, so I haven't come to see the Emperor for two days."
Hearing the words "something happened at home", the little emperor's expression became a little bit different, his jaw tightened and he said with great concern: "What happened?"
Huo Shijiu shook his head, and entered the palace together with the emperor. The little emperor sat at the head. Huo Shijiu stood with his chest bowed, and replied weakly: "Originally, my parents and family thought that the current situation is very good and the weather is warm. , is going to the south for fun. The minister discussed and asked someone to accompany him. The emperor also knew Zhuo Jing's temperament, and he was the most filial one. If he didn't worry about his parents, he should accompany them for a certain distance and send them to Yi County. Just came back. But it was only such a short distance, and something happened!"
"Ah?!" The little emperor exclaimed in surprise, "What happened?"
"They have not been heard from, and the bodies of the accompanying guards were found outside the city. I think, maybe the parents and family members have suffered a tragic accident."
The little emperor frowned, and thoughtfully said: "Brother Ying, don't be too anxious, maybe something has delayed it? Besides, a character like an overlord like my sister would not care about her family. I can't guarantee it." There must be something stuck."
Huo Jiujiu shook his head, his beautiful eyes kept sizing up the expression of the little emperor, under the bright sky, not a single subtle expression of the little emperor escaped his eyes.
He didn't think too much about it.It was just after entering the palace today, that something was wrong with the emperor.
First the exaggerated surprise at seeing him, then the unnatural exclamation when he said his family was gone, and what he said.
As usual, when the little emperor heard such news, the first thing he would think was whether it was done by the British Duke.The second will be anxiously spinning all over the ground, and will take his anxiety as his own anxiety.
But today, the little emperor comforted him like this, asking if there was any delay.
In fact, Huo Shijiu couldn't find out what was wrong with saying this, but he knew too well the child he had watched grow up, and knew too well what his every expression represented.
He looked really flustered.
All right, why is he panicking?
Huo Shijiu remembered what Cao Yu said just now - there was an extra watchman outside the Hou's mansion, and his actions were similar to those of the Dongchang people.
Once he had this guess and carefully observed the current situation, Huo Shijiu would have [-] reasons to believe that his guess was correct.
Heartache, shock, and unspeakable colic pain spread in the chest cavity, and the heart twisted, as if an invisible big hand was grasping fiercely, trying to tear that small piece of flesh in half.
Huo Shijiu's eyes turned black, and he clutched his chest in pain.
"Brother Ying!" The little emperor exclaimed, and he and Cao Yu supported Huo Shijiu who was on the verge of falling, let him sit in an armchair, and then turned around and shouted: "Don't rush, quickly call Imperial Physician Du and Imperial Physician Liu!"
"Yes, yes!" The little eunuch in front of the door saw that the emperor's face changed in a hurry, his voice was so stern, he thought that something was wrong with Marquis Jin Ning, and hurried away.
Huo Shijiu has recovered a little now, the severe colic has disappeared, leaving only the cold sweat all over his body, which drenched his back.
"Grandpa, how are you doing?"
"Brother Ying, are you alright?"
Huo Shijiu shook his head, "I'm fine, I'm just hungry. What the emperor said just now is very true, maybe it's really delayed." He lowered his forehead and lowered his eyes, and continued: "This is the end of the matter, there is no use in worrying. My minister I'm just waiting for news, whether there is an accident or something is delayed, we should know soon."
Only then did the little emperor feel relieved, and said with a smile on his face: "Yes, it will definitely be fine. Brother Ying, calm down, since he is hungry, I asked them to prepare something casually, and it happened that I was also hungry, so Brother Ying accompanied me. Let me have something to eat together. Now it's better to go wash and take care of it first, look at your appearance, alas! The imperial doctor will come to take a look later."
Having said that, the little emperor worriedly held Huo Jiujiu's sleeves with both hands, "Brother Ying, for the sake of the country and the country, you must take care of yourself, I can't live without you by my side."
Huo Shijiu avoided the serious and took the light, and said apologetically, "It's really my negligence to be so embarrassing and unsightly."
"Brother Ying, why should you be so polite? I don't care what you are. You are what you are. Aren't you all my Brother Ying? I'm really worried that Qi Jin will be shocked by your slovenly appearance."
The little emperor was just joking unintentionally.But when it stopped in Huo Shijiu's ears, it was another matter.The next time I see Qijin again, don't say it's a shock, I'm afraid the children won't know him as a father.
Think about the family members who have not heard from him, and look at the emperor who smiled reluctantly in front of him. He was a little confused for a moment, and he didn't know why he persisted until today.If you promised the late emperor, can it still be done?
Huo Shijiu didn't want his inner fluctuations to be shown in front of others, so he got up and asked the little eunuch to take care of washing, shaving and combing his hair. Buckle with gold inlaid sapphire.
Changed clothes properly, even if he was haggard, Huo Shijiu was still as chic as a tree facing the wind and the moon in his arms.The little emperor looked pleasing to the eye, and affectionately pulled him to sit down and talk, and when the imperial doctor came to check his pulse, he just said that Huo Shijiu was exhausted from Yousi and was fine.
As a result, both the little emperor and Cao Yu heaved a sigh of relief.
The imperial doctor went outside to prescribe prescriptions and medicines, and the little emperor immediately ordered someone to decoct medicines for Huo Jiujiu.
Huo Shijiu hurriedly stopped him and said, "Your Majesty, there has been no news from Yixian County. I plan to go out of Beijing to see for myself. I won't use the medicine in the palace. It won't be too late when the matter is over and Li Zai takes the medicine. The most urgent thing now is this top priority. Otherwise, how can I rest in peace? I also ask the emperor to grant me a few days of vacation."
He wants to go in person?
The little emperor was a little anxious, and blurted out: "Brother Ying, don't go. Things are like this in the capital now. Our second plan has been implemented a few days ago. The British public security may find something, and it is uncertain when it will be ordered." Attack me. It is the time when I am employing people, without you by my side, what should I do?"
The little emperor grabbed Huo Jiujiu's sleeve, like a child cheating on his father, the dependence in his expression and the request in his words made Huo Shijiu's heart palpitate.
Maybe it's because I'm already prepared against him in my heart, and I don't trust him wholeheartedly like before.Listening to the emperor's words now, he would think of several possibilities, such words that would make him feel comfortable in the past, but today make him feel selfish.
It is true that there is such a saying that "the king must die, the minister must die".But how could he and the emperor be just simple monarchs and ministers?
The emperor is also a human being, and he doesn't have a hard heart. Could it be that he can't keep warm at all?
"Your Majesty, what you said is reasonable." Huo Shijiu said wearily: "The matter of the Duke of England is indeed urgent, so I am anxious to get Wu'er back. After all, this plan was thought up by her, and she did the main thing. The third link is really the key, without her, I think it would be very difficult for the British Duke to get the bait, and it would be very difficult to lure him into the trap."
The little emperor nodded earnestly, without moving his expression.
Huo Shijiu said again: "Originally, when she went out, she just sent her parents to Yi County and then turned back. There would be no delay in serious business. Now that her whereabouts are unknown, how can the plan be carried out?"
The little emperor chewed on these words, and then analyzed Huo Shijiu's daily behavior, and suddenly felt that what he said was the truth, and Jiang Wu didn't follow him out to hide...
"Brother Ying..." The little emperor subconsciously opened his mouth, only to realize that his tone was very wrong when he made the sound.
He is the king of a country, how he makes a decision, the courtiers can only obey, and cannot distinguish.Not to mention if he did anything wrong.Could it be that before he did such suspicious things for his courtiers, didn't he consider Long Yan's anger?With Jiang Wu's skills, it's not easy to stay at home peacefully, but to go out and walk around.
Originally, he didn't intend to participate in this matter at all.
But just now, in Huo Shijiu's words, he even said that the Huo family was out to play.If you haven't told him the truth until now, you can't blame him.
After the complicated mood, the little emperor spoke with full confidence: "Since Brother Ying said so, I don't want to keep you in the capital. You can go to Yi County. Just remember to come back soon, don't forget Kyoto City still has serious things to do."
In this way, the little emperor's dissatisfaction has been clearly expressed.
If it is placed on an ordinary courtier, he will kowtow and salute immediately to plead guilty.
Huo Shijiu acted as if he hadn't noticed it, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding. Your Majesty also said that my parents are both kind and honest people, and they are all blessed. I just borrowed this auspicious word from my Majesty, my heart I believe they are safe and sound."
This sentence sounds like he is comforting himself.
But in front of the little emperor, Huo Dashuan's simple and honest smile and Zhao's loving and gentle smile appeared.
Previously, the other courtyard was destroyed. Before he returned to the palace, he lived in Huo's house for a while.Although Huo Dashuan had no education, he was a very honest and honest man. His family was not willing to enjoy the prosperity and wealth, so he spent his whole day growing vegetables, raising chickens and pigs for fun. He took him to help in the fields and taught him a lot about farming. He loves him like a nephew, he won't say compliments against his will just because he is the emperor, but he really cares about him, remembers his favorite dishes, and always puts them in front of him when eating.Mrs. Zhao also sewed his torn sleeves and made shoes for him.Although the pair of shoes are not very good-looking, they are very comfortable to wear. Huo Shijiu's younger brother is an honest scholar, and Huo Shijiu's younger sister is a carefree and cheerful woman...
There is also Jiang Wu, the heroine-like character who became famous in Huang Yushan and was born and died in order to help Huo Shijiu.
These people all died because of his anger.
At this moment, the little emperor was actually not sure whether the people he sent were successful, because no one survived this time.But he thought, these people are the best among the elites, so why can't they do this?Secretly, he also knew that Jiang Wu was pregnant again.
When it came to a real fight, it was impossible for her not to make a move.If a pregnant woman wants to fight with others, she may lose half of her life if she does not die.
Now the little emperor feels a little guilty.
He also wondered if he had made a wrong decision in a flash of his head. If it was as Huo Shijiu said, Jiang Wu didn't plan to leave the capital and stop interfering in this matter. It wasn't Huo Shijiu who arranged for everyone to How about going out to take refuge?
"……emperor?"
"Ah?" The little emperor came back to his senses, "Brother Ying, what did you say?"
"I'm asking, what is the emperor thinking? Why does it seem to be very contradictory." Huo Shijiu had already understood it, and asked knowingly.
The little emperor shook his head and said with a smile: "It's nothing, Brother Ying, don't worry, the old man and the wife are blessed people, how can a few little assassins kill them? I will arrange people from Jin Yiwei to go with you later. They originally It's your people, and they cooperate with you tacitly, so it's important to get my sister back as soon as possible."
"Yes, sir, thank you for your kindness."
The little emperor actually forgot that he just ordered someone to prepare lunch for Huo Shijiu to share, so he let him go...
Outside the palace gate, Huo Shijiu lifted up the window screen, and looked at the resplendent palace through the light blue tassels hanging down.He murmured: "After all, it's still where it is today."
Cao Yu called out worriedly, "Master?"
"Let's go. No matter what, if you want to see people, you need to see dead bodies." When Huo Shijiu said this, his smile was more ironic, "Fortunately, what the emperor just said made me sure that he also I don’t know if the parents are gone or not. This shows that there is still room for improvement in the situation.”
Cao Yu pursed his lips. Just now, the emperor's incoherent, flustered and contradictory appearance, and the fact that the assassin was not careful in the end, was not a bandit road tyrant or other accidents, it had already proved their previous guess.
"Master, if he is like that, will you continue to be for him?"
