228 Punishment (two more)
The emperor and Xuan Ping Hou went out of the palace for a reason, and it is not surprising that they would run into Lord Hou. Originally, the three of them had booked a place and wanted to work together secretly.
I just met in advance.
The emperor and the three went to a nearby...theatre.
That's right, it's the theater.
Everyone knows that Xuanping Hou is unruly and unruly, who loves beauty and listens to dramas. He often goes in and out here, but no one knows that this was originally an industry under his name.
The three of them entered the wing, and the servant outside closed the door.
The emperor was half-dead with wounds on his head. After he sat down, he said impatiently: "To make a long story short! How is the matter?"
Lord Hou didn't dare to neglect, he bowed his hand and said, "In response to your majesty, since the news of beating the minister back to Beijing, the whereabouts of the minister has been watched."
"The Zhuang family?" the emperor asked.
Xuan Pinghou grabbed a handful of melon seeds.
The emperor glared at him.
"Oh." The seeds were not allowed to be eaten. Your Majesty was so angry that Xuan Pinghou reluctantly put the seeds back.
Old Houye nodded: "Yes, today the old minister went to the temple, and the King Anjun quietly followed."
The emperor frowned: "He actually followed you by himself?"
Old Houye didn't realize it was strange: "His guards and veterans all know him, and he can only take risks by himself."
It's not easy to find out King An. Old Houye barely noticed it on the way. It was when King An got on the carriage a little earlier when he came back, he was discovered by Old Houye.
As for why he was in trouble, Lord Hou did not know.
When it comes to business matters, the emperor's face is a bit serious: "Where is the Queen Mother? Is there any eyebrow?"
Old Houye speculated: "The minister thinks... the Queen Mother may have already entered Beijing."
The emperor furrowed his brows tighter: "Why are you saying this?"
Old Lord Marquis thoughtfully said: "Although the dealer is still pretending to look for the queen mother, their search speed is much slower. Moreover, when the King An left the capital, he appeared to accompany his younger sister on a tour of the mountains and rivers, but he was actually exploring along the way. News about the Queen Mother. After that, the Queen of Anjun returned to Beijing under the name of the township examination...For the veteran to say bluntly, the Prince of Anjun was still young, and he couldn't give up looking for the queen for an imperial examination."
The emperor pondered for a moment, feeling that Lord Hou's words were not unreasonable: "So you think he returned to Beijing because he found the queen mother? But now that he has found it, why not let the queen mother go back to the palace?"
When the queen mother returned to Beijing, it was the emperor who was more afraid of it. The Zhuang family held a heaven card in their hands but did not play. What kind of routine is this?
The old man thought: "This... the minister is also puzzled. Maybe... the leprosy of the queen mother has not been cured. They are secretly treating the queen mother?"
A leprosy queen dowager will be despised and despised by others. When the queen mother Zhuang contracted leprosy, they all thought that the opportunity to bring down the queen mother had come, but who expected the queen mother to escape by herself.
If they dare to say that Queen Mother Zhuang left the palace privately, Mrs. Zhuang dared to question in public whether they murdered the Queen Mother.
They did not dare to block the win or lose, so they had to use a roundabout strategy, claiming that the queen mother had a sudden illness and went to the palace to recuperate.
Afterwards, they deliberately or unintentionally let the dealer find out the news that Queen Mother Zhuang escaped with leprosy.
The Zhuang family also taboo that this disease will ruin the Queen Mother’s reputation, so they hold it down and search for the Queen Mother in private.
The two sides achieved a delicate balance in a short time.
But this balance will be broken someday.
If Mrs. Zhuang really finds the Queen Mother, and healed her, then the two sides will not be far from the day of breaking the balance.
The journey from the medical hall to the nunnery was not close, and the road was delayed for a while. When Gu Jiao returned to Bishuihu, it was already dusk.
A bright glow from the sky, falling on a red wall and green tiles, smudged with warm orange light.
When Gu Jiao walked into the alley, she really felt that she was going home.
She had never experienced this kind of feeling in her previous life.
In the previous life, she lived with her parents in a pitiful few days, blank and indifferent, without the slightest warmth of home.
The so-called home is just a residence.
Now it seems to have a new meaning.
After a busy day, she is eager to return here, eager to see the people in the house.
She's not always tireless, but she's used to being tired. No one will hurt her anyway, so it's useless to be hypocritical.
"Jiaojiao!"
Xiao Jingkong's voice interrupted Gu Jiao's thoughts.
The little guy sat on the threshold again and waited for her.
In the morning he fell and cried with tears, but now he ran towards her and threw himself into her arms.
She took the opportunity to pick him up, but he shook his head and said, "No, Jiaojiao is so tired."
He resisted the urge to hug, and took Gu Jiao's hand.
"Does the leg still hurt?" Gu Jiao bent over to pull his little trouser leg.
Xiao Jingkong shook his head: "It doesn't hurt!"
In fact, it still hurts a bit, but Xiaojingkong's acting like a baby is based on the premise that it doesn't burden Gu Jiao.
"Sister!" Gu Xiaoshun heard the movement at the door and threw down half of the carpentry work at hand. He sprang out like a little monkey and helped Gu Jiao get her small back basket, "Give it to me!"
Gu Xiaoshun insisted on holding the small back basket in his hand, and carefully put her small medicine box into her east room.
Gu Yan was originally shoveling chicken cakes for the small clearance in the yard. The shoveling made him smoke. He didn't have any free time and didn't care about Gu Xiaoshun. Finally, he saw his sister. His beautiful face was completely black.
Gu Jiao was amused by his appearance.
Gu Yan turned back awkwardly.
Gu Jiao went to coax him.
It is difficult for others to coax him, but is it not easy for Gu Jiao to coax him? Gu Jiao pulled his hand, and he lost his temper.
Yao came out of the stove with a plate of newly cooked steamed cakes, and when she saw her daughter, her brows were gentle: "Jiaojiao is back? Just made some snacks. Go and see if your aunt is awake?"
"Good!" Xiao Jingkong loves to go to her aunt's house for rounds, and she always finds something, and she feels full of accomplishment!
The little headroom ran to the old lady's house wheezing.
The old lady was holding a jar of candied fruit and eating it babbled.
Lao Jijiu sat opposite her speechlessly, just watching her eating all afternoon.
Is it so edible?
How long has Xiandi been hungry for you?
"Auntie!" Xiaojingkong ran over!
The old lady stuffed the jar of candied fruit into the old Jijiu's arms with lightning speed.
Old Jijiu looked at the jar that suddenly appeared in his arms: "..."
You pressed me here all afternoon for this moment?
Lao Jijiu didn't want to take the pot back, so he immediately returned the jar to the old lady.
As soon as entered the room, saw that the old Jijiu stretched out the jar of candied fruit in front of the old lady, and the old lady hugged her arms and looked firm and rejected!
The old lady snorted, "I said I can't eat it, and it's useless to coerce and tempt you!"
Old Jijiu: "..."
So is half a jar of preserves eaten by ghosts?
Could it be a bit of the face and consciousness of the Demon Queen of Disaster?
Old Jijiu sighed.
It's no wonder that A Heng took the Demon Empress with her at ease, and the current appearance of the Demon Empress wasn't really a threat.
It just suffered him.
Day by day, was either robbed or scammed, and old age was miserable!
However, after saying goodbye to Gu Jiao, King An Jun went to the hospital first and ordered a batch of Jinso medicine from Miaoshoutang.
I made her angry today, take care of her business and coax her.
After that, King An took a carriage back to the mansion.
Mrs. Zhuang was already waiting in the Flower Hall.
Because of the Queen Mother's affairs, Mrs. Zhuang had a lot of heartache, and people were a lot older.
"Grandfather." Wang Anjun entered the house and saluted.
Old God Zhuang Taifu glanced at him, and said in a calm tone: "Why did you come back so late? Did you follow it all day?"
County King looked down: "No, I bought something on the way back to the house."
Mrs. Zhuang closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled: "Is his whereabouts abnormal?"
County King replied: "He went to look at the cable bridge that had been repaired. He should be looking at the quality of the cable bridge."
The rope bridge was repaired by Master Gu. It is said that Master Gu was beaten up by Master Old Hou recently and he was behind closed doors at home to recover from his injuries. It is reasonable for Master Gu to check the rope bridge for him.
But Lord Hou is by no means a simple military commander. He is a brave and conspiring old man. He takes one step and counts ten steps away.
Mrs. Zhuang suspected that the old Hou Ye’s beating his son was deliberate, so that he could look around in an open manner on the pretext of acting for his son.
After all, there are too many things in the Ministry of Engineering, spread all over the capital, and the old Houye will not be suspected anywhere.
Of course it was someone else, not Mrs. Zhuang.
Mrs. Zhuang frowned suspiciously: "Just looked at the cable bridge? Didn't do anything else? For example, who did you see? What happened?"
Encountered Princess Jing...and Gu Jiao.
Jun Wang's hand buried under his wide sleeves scratched the hem of the grabbing shirt without a trace: "He walked around the temple and didn't meet anyone."
Mrs. Zhuang touched his beard, and said in thought, "This is weird. Is it possible that he really went to check the cable bridge?"
County King looked down.
Quietly did not answer.
For the first time in his life, he lied to his grandfather.
The King An has always been obedient, and sent him to Chen Country as a hostage at the age of eight. He did not complain. These years, it was for the family's hard work. Mrs. Zhuang never suspected that he was lying.
Mrs. Zhuang waved his hand: "Go down, Master Gu is very alert. You will follow him once today, I'm afraid he has already discovered him. You don't want to go next time, I will change someone."
"Yes."
An Junwang saluted and walked out of the flower hall.
"elder brother!"
When passing by the Suihua Gate, Zhuang Yuexi suddenly walked out from behind the big tree.
King An looked at her, then looked back at the Flower Hall, and asked, "Why are you here?"
Zhuang Yuexi's beautiful eyes are full of him: "I'll wait for my brother."
"I'm tired, I'm going back to the yard first." An Junwang said exhausted physically and mentally. After that, he passed by Zhuang Yuexi.
Zhuang Yuexi followed him with her gaze, and stepped forward and said, "Why didn't brother tell the truth?"
An Junwang paused and looked back at her warily.
Zhuang Yuexi was aggrieved and puzzled: "My brother clearly saw Old Houye and..."
"Shut up!" An Junwang shouted more than Zhuang Yuexi.
Zhuang Yuexi was taken aback.
King An is a beautiful young man who is as gentle as a jade. He has an innate gentleness and upbringing in his bones.
He rarely speaks so harshly.
"Are you following me?" His brows were cold.
Such King An is undoubtedly unfamiliar, but in fact, this is the real him, he who survived Chen Guo's countless conspiracies and tricks.
"I didn't." Zhuang Yuexi was frightened by such An Jun Wang, and hurriedly shook her head, "There is no class in female school today. Mengdie asked me to go to incense, and if you don't believe me, I should ask her."
"She saw it too?"
"She didn't."
Zhuang Mengdie's straw buns only pay attention to worshiping Buddha and eating vegetables.
"You want to tell grandfather, just go." County King finished tiredly, and left without looking back.
Zhuang Yuexi's heart was aching.
She won't tell grandfather.
How could she be willing to let her grandfather punish her brother?
She just didn't understand why her brother had to hide it? Are you afraid of causing trouble to that woman?
It was her, she made the brother change.
The elder brother began to lie to his grandfather, began to abuse her, and began to become unlike his former elder brother.
It's all caused by that woman!
Zhuang Yuexi's fingers tightened little by little.
Old Houye was finally punished by the emperor.
The emperor's punishment was quite heavy. Although Old Houye hit himself unintentionally, he almost hit the little genius doctor deliberately.
Because the emperor felt the pain of this whip, he could vividly imagine what would happen if he hit the little genius doctor.
Xuan Pinghou was also punished.
Old Houye and Xuanping Hou were both military commanders, and whipping them was the same as tickling them, so the emperor punished them for copying military records.
Punishing a military commander to copy books is the same as Punishing a civil official to play a board.
Old Houye knelt in the side hall of the Jinluan Hall, looking at a table of military books and writing brushes, his head was big!
However, Xuan Pinghou threw the brush on the table without saltiness.
Copy dog eggs!
Go to my son!
