The new emperor's arrow hit his master in the chest, and he held a grudge and insisted on stabbing him back in person.
He also has to expose his identity to his face and make the other party angry to death.
Xiao Qizi muttered to himself——
It was obvious that he was a bit conceited at that time and wanted to look like he was hurt, but he didn't expect that the other party was not a fuel-efficient person either, and he almost died.
But he couldn't say this in front of his master.
Shangguan Yanqiao looked at the distant sky and pressed his hat.
Beijing...
They've been away for more than half a year, and it's time to make a comeback!
...
Beijing, Xu Family Inner Courtyard.
"Mother, take the medicine." Xu Xiuyi handed the bowl in her hand to a middle-aged beautiful woman.
The middle-aged beautiful woman leaned on the soft silver pillow, took the medicine bowl and drank it, frowning slightly: "This medicine is really bitter, I will try a different prescription next time."
Xu Xiuyi smiled and took a plate of golden candied dates from the food box held by the maid and handed it over: "This recipe has been the same this month. It's just that it's not dad who gives you the medicine, it's me. Mom thinks the medicine is too bitter.
Already."
Mrs. Xu suddenly looked a little embarrassed and rolled her eyes at her daughter: "You girl really... How dare you make fun of your mother."
Xu Xiuyi smiled: "Daughter, don't dare, dad will be angry."
Mrs. Xu asked worriedly: "Your father has been in the palace for more than half a month and he hasn't come back yet."
Xu Xiuyi comforted her: "It's because His Majesty is on an expedition that he recruited all the important officials from the yamen into the palace to handle things in the palace."
Mrs. Xu's beautiful eyebrows twisted: "This sign is unusual. It doesn't look like it's just to deal with things, but more like house arrest."
"Our new emperor does not trust the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty. He actually locked all the first- and second-rank ministers into the palace after the expedition."
I heard that the new emperor seemed to be on his way back. He didn't know what happened and stayed in Daming Mansion for a long time.
Xu Xiuyi knew that although her mother lived in a boudoir and was frail and sick, she was not a woman who knew nothing.
She has always longed for a strange woman like Mrs. Xiao Guanyin, who, even though she is weak, can still live in a boudoir.
Otherwise, we would not have the reputation of being a scholar of Guanyin's books all over the world.
My father and mother are still happy and harmonious at this age and do not take concubines because they have a common language.
"Don't worry, Mom, Dad and I are back together." A steady voice suddenly sounded.
Mrs. Xu was stunned and looked at the young man who appeared at the door in surprise: "Sihuai, come back!"
Xu Xiuyi also stood up in surprise: "Brother?!"
Sihuai is the cousin of the eldest brother Xu Xiufeng.
Xu Xiuyi turned around and saw her eldest brother, whom she had not seen for several years, standing at the door. Next to him stood Mr. Xu, who was dressed in the official uniform of a first-class official.
"Brother! Dad!" She greeted him happily and stepped forward to bless him.
Mr. Xu smiled and touched his little sister's head: "She is really an engaged girl. In the past, she would have thrown herself into the arms of her elder brother!"
Xu Xiuyi couldn't help but said shyly: "Brother! I didn't even have haircuts at that time!"
The eldest brother actually made fun of her!
Mr. Xu had already gone directly to sit down next to Mrs. Xu, and looked at his wife steadily: "Madam, my husband is back."
Mrs. Xu couldn't help but hold his hand: "I'm worried, why have you lost so much weight?"
