Hongzhi's eyes were filled with pain and he avoided looking: "Don't ask me, I just don't want to give it to you. Just leave. Leave quickly, or I will really kill you."
Hearing this, Jiang Nanzi sneered: "Those who have died once are not afraid of dying again. If you don't give it to me, I won't be able to leave for the rest of my life."
"She doesn't only have five days left, you just have to wait and see."
"If you don't kill me, don't regret it. I will disturb your palace. Hongzhi, I want to see if you are ruthless or I am ruthless. By the way, you are such a piece of shit. I shouldn't have told you."
There is arsenic in the silver, and you deserve to be eaten to death."
After saying that, he walked carelessly to the soft couch that only had room for one person, straightened up and lay down on it, and they froze with Hongzhi.
He was not joking, he would be successful if he didn't succeed. He risked his life for Feng Hongluan. Anyway, the past few years were nothing more than living in peace. He was tired of the days of traveling around mountains and rivers. Those bad memories would only last
As soon as you close your eyes, you can forget everything. If you can win for the woman you love, why not do it.
Yes, it was impossible for him to admit it, but he had to admit that he liked Feng Hongluan.
But he also knew that this feeling could only be hidden deep in his heart.
Because he didn't want to lose the opportunity to get close to Feng Hongluan. Some things, once revealed, would be embarrassing for both of them.
And no matter what, he knew in his heart who the person Feng Hongluan loved.
What he knew more clearly was that he was Hong Han, Hong Yan's biological second brother. It was not easy for his friends and wives to bully him, let alone his siblings.
Seeing him acting like a rogue, Hong Zhi's handsome face became a bit gloomy. The fists at his sides were clenched tightly, but he quickly suppressed all his emotions and smiled lightly.
"It's up to you. You can stay in my house as long as you want. Don't worry, I won't tell the emperor that you are still alive."
Jiang Nanzi glanced at him, looking very unconcerned.
"I don't care if you tell him or not. I'm not afraid of him. You should know."
"It's getting late at night. If you want to stay, please feel free to stay. I'm going back to my room."
After Hongzhi finished speaking, he walked downstairs. Jiang Nanzi glanced at the flavored tea from the corner of his eye and said, "This is for you!"
A mass of brown stuff flew from behind and was caught firmly by Hongzhi as it slid past his ears and temples.
It was a ceramic bottle, dark brown in color, plugged with a soft red cloth. The red cloth plug emitted a strong medicinal fragrance, and there was the sound of something rolling in the bottle, probably pills.
"Save your life, or I will ask who is going to get the lotus heart. Let's go. Take one pill every morning. You will be immune to all poisons that day. By the way, if you know who did it, let's go."
Tell her this time, if you add Heding Red, the color of the tea will be much more beautiful."
Hongzhi didn't say anything, he just glanced at the tea cup coldly and went downstairs.
*
Huaiyuan, Hongzhi's bedroom. He held a ceramic bottle in his hand. He sneered and threw the bottle to the ground. The bottle rolled and fell to the bottom of the bed.
How could a normal person believe in charity from an enemy, let alone someone who had indirectly died at his hands?
Even if this medicine is not a poison, it cannot be an antidote.
He glanced at the teapot on the table with a deep look. The water in the pot was warm. Apparently the servants had been giving him hot water. He opened the lid and sniffed it gently. There was no expression on his face.
There were slight footsteps outside the door. He was excited and said: "Who!"
"Your Majesty, you are a slave. When I see you holding the lamp, I know you are back."
The person who spoke was his little Dezi who was waiting on him. His face relaxed a little and returned to his normal appearance: "Where have you been? Aren't you always waiting in the house?"
"The princess called the servant over."
"What does she want you to do?"
"The servant doesn't know either. When the servant passed by, the princess turned off the lights and went to sleep. Sister Liu who was beside the princess sent the servant back."
"Call Xizi to me."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Xiao Dezi went out, and not long after, he came in with a handsome young man. This young man was dedicated to cleaning the Huxinting study room. Every time Hongzhi went to Huxinting, he would take care of everything.
Naturally, he also handled the task of serving tea and water.
That silver coin was sent by him.
He had acted calmly in front of Jiang Nanzi just now because he didn't want Jiang Nanzi to see his panic. In fact, he had been worried about the presence of arsenic in the tea until now.
Maybe Jiang Nanzi was just deliberately sowing discord, but he thought that if Jiang Nanzi really wanted to sow discord, he wouldn't cause trouble for no reason. After all, he was not here to stir up trouble, he was just here to get medicine, so why bother.
Therefore, Hongzhi kept a close eye on this matter.
After Xizi came in, he sent Xiao Dezi out. In the room, the dim candlelight shone brightly on his fair and smooth face. His face was no longer as approachable as usual, but had a bit of bottomless coldness.
The young man standing not far opposite him had panicked eyes and lowered his head, not daring to look at him.
"Did you make the tea tonight?"
He said coldly, and Xizi fell to his knees on the ground. This move was undoubtedly a self-inflicted move. Hongzhi was very angry. It turned out that there was something wrong with the tea, and Jiang Nanzi did not lie to him.
"Who told you to do this?"
he shouted angrily.
Xizi trembled and murmured for a long time, dripping with cold sweat, but she did not dare to confess the person behind her.
Hongzhi stepped forward and pinched Xizi's neck with his iron palm: "Speak!"
Xizi's body trembled even more violently: "Yes, yes, Master, spare your life, spare your life, Xizi can't say it, can't say it!"
"ah!"
As the force on Hongzhi's hand intensified like a threat, Xizi let out a sharp cry of pain. Because of the difficulty in exhaling, her face had swollen into a purple-red color, like eggplant skin, and she looked very scary.
A cold light appeared in Hongzhi's eyes, and his thin lips said word by word: "Isn't it? If you don't say it, you will die."
After saying that, his hand movements became heavier. Xizi struggled twice and uttered two words with difficulty: "I said."
Hongzhi finally let go of his hand slightly. Xizi gasped for breath and looked at Hongzhi with tearful eyes. He coughed for a long time. Suddenly, he pulled out a dagger from his boot and rushed toward Hongzhi.
A fish-to-death attitude.
It's a pity that he is no match for Hong Zhi. He is either a dead end or a dead end.
The dagger had not even come close to Hong Zhi's body, only two flashes of silver light were visible, and with a muffled groan, Xi Zi's thin body fell heavily, twitched twice, and became silent.
Xizi died, and Hong Zhi's cold gaze fell on Xizi like frost. This person was given to him by the emperor's brother.
He had also seen the dagger that this man had used to stab him to death at his brother's place.
A sneer spread at the corners of his mouth.
*
I haven't seen Jiang Nanzi for a few days, so I asked Hong Yan, and Hong Yan only said that Jiang Nanzi had important things to do and would be back in a few days.
Hong Yan has been almost inseparable these days. Feng Hongluan can only stay in bed, and she stays by the bed all day long, never leaving.
On the third day after waking up, someone came to Feng Mansion. Feng Hongluan was very happy. Something happened to her on the day of her father's triumphant return. She never saw her father and had no time to congratulate him.
I originally planned to go back home with Liuxiang to stay for a while in a few days, but now I don’t know where Liuxiang is.
Hongyan sent a large number of people to search, but the result was still no one, no dead, no bodies.
Whenever a fragrant corpse cannot be found, Feng Hongluan clings to hope in her heart.
After all, Hongyan's manpower was limited, and even a single maid could not alert the army. When Fengcheng came this time, Feng Hongluan happened to talk to his father about this matter, and asked his father to allocate a small team to secretly search for Liuxiang's whereabouts.
In the room, Feng Hongluan looked a bit slovenly because she had been lying there for many days, unable to clean herself, take a bath, or get out of bed to walk around. However, she thought it was her father who she was facing, so it didn't matter.
She didn't expect that her father would bring his general with him.
Simply because Wuming was a man and could not come in and out of her boudoir at will, he only said hello outside the hospital and did not come in.
Thinking about the day I saw this Wuming, half of his face was really scary, but he was very brave. Others were busy covering up, but he could show his true face, sitting on a tall horse. Although his face was broken, there was a sense of self-confidence.
An admirable temperament.
If it weren't for her illness, she would have wanted to meet this unknown general, no, it should be General Wei now.
In the past few days, Hong Yan had told her some things at court.
The most important one is, of course, Wuming's promotion to the post of General Wei.
As for her father, he should have taken over the position of general, but probably because the remnants of the general's party have not been cleaned up, the emperor has not yet given the order to promote her father.
As usual, she was rewarded with a lot of gold, silver and jewels. This time Fengcheng came over and brought her some silk forgings. They were all top-quality gifts from the emperor and were rarely used by the empresses and princesses in the palace.
Now that the Dong family is dead, He Jixiang's relationship with the Feng Mansion has completely collapsed because of his relationship with the Dong family.
Now that there are no female relatives in the house, Fengcheng has no need for these pieces of cloth and silk, so he brought them to Feng Hongluan.
In addition, gold, silver, jade, bracelets, accessories, and women's items were also selected for Feng Hongluan.
Naturally, Prince Jin's Mansion has no shortage of these things, but for Fengcheng, who only has one child, Feng Hongluan, all the things in Feng Mansion belong to Feng Hongluan, and he just brought them to Feng Hongluan in advance.
Fengcheng was sitting next to the bed, wearing a black robe with large sleeves and a cross-collar collar, and a crimson dark flower stand-up collar. He was only about forty years old. He had been in the battlefield for many years and had a strong physique. He looked like a general and majestic.
.
However, in front of Feng Hongluan, this majestic general also transformed into a loving and gentle father.
"Dad has been coming to see you for a long time, but you were in a coma the last few times he came. In the past few days, the affairs of the DPRK and China have been too busy. I almost spent all my time in the Ministry of War, and I didn't even have a chance to breathe. Until today
Come here, Hongluan, you won’t blame dad!”
Feng Hongluan shook her head gently.
"How come, dad is dispatching troops in the Ministry of War? I heard from Hong Yan that although the emperor has not promoted dad to the general for the time being, Deluo has taken over all the affairs of the general. He only needs a title and a tiger talisman.
.”
There was a bright color on Fengcheng's face, and he said: "I am not greedy for power. I am happy that that old fox Xia Hui has stepped down. After being squeezed by him for so many years, I finally have a chance to stand out."
Although he didn't care about power, soldiers who didn't want to be generals were not good soldiers. In Fengcheng's eyes, Feng Hongluan still felt a bit excited about gaining power.
This is human nature, and no one who has been promoted will have a glowing face.
She felt proud and happy for her father.
"That Xia Hui died more than deserved. In these years, apart from forming cliques in the government for personal gain, stirring up trouble and suppressing dissenters, he has not made any contribution to the country and the people. Dad, you fought bloody and hard on the front line. You are the one who truly deserves your name."
General."
Fengcheng blushed. A father would also blush when faced with his daughter's praise.
"Not to mention these, as long as you can serve the country, anything is fine. Are you feeling well?"
"Well, it's much better. After a while, I will ask Hong Yan to accompany me home for a while. When will daddy come back this time?"
"After a year and a half, the Liao army will never regain its strength. I wanted to take advantage of the victory and pursue it and force the Liao to surrender, but the emperor was reluctant to make a decision. I am just a minister. If the emperor asks me to go east, I will go east. If the emperor asks me, I will go west.
Xi, the emperor asked me to send troops to force Liao to surrender, and I will leave again."
"The Liao army is now defeated, and the unnamed contribution is indispensable. I see that dad takes him everywhere now. With such a fierce general, dad is even more powerful. Even if the emperor is merciful and allows the Liao army a way to survive, they still want to fight back despite their kindness. There is a fall.
With De and Wuming here, the Liao army has nothing to fear."
Feng Hongluan knew very little about military matters in her previous life. She only remembered that before her death, the Liao army had not captured it. It seemed that things were changing and were completely different from what she remembered.
Everything is fine now, my father has Wuming's help, he has made great achievements in battle, and is about to be promoted to general.
