extravagant big and square

Looking at the brazier, Sima Ji slowly stood in front of the bed with his hands behind his back.Looking at the gradually darkening sky, I only think about that busy person who leaves early and returns late, that warm and warm...

"Princess!" Dongmei couldn't help exclaiming, "Princess, come and have a look!"

"What's all the fuss about?" Sima Ji frowned, but his eyes followed where Dongmei pointed...

In that brazier, there were something different!

"Princess, take a look." Dongmei carefully picked out those things and presented them to Sima Ji respectfully.For so many years, as an old man by Sima Ji's side, he knows what to say and what to look at.

"Bibo", flying insects from nowhere jumped into the candlelight, and the light flickered and then returned to its original state, as if it wasn't the one that devoured the life just now.

"Go and get some bone-forming powder." After reading every word without missing a word, Sima Ji only ordered with his usual expression.

Xu Xian, how sincere have you been to me?Even your illegitimate son asked me to find it for you... That's all!This love should be repaid by knowing the truth of all this!But, Huo Qi, Huo Qi... How much do you know about all this?

……

"Princess, what's the matter recently? I'm always absent-minded, but is something on my mind?" Tang Huoqi took the small cup passed by the servant, and scooped a spoonful of red bean barley porridge for Sima Ji with his own hands, "Try it, it's all good Things. To replenish energy and blood, drink more."

"I don't know what's wrong, I always lose my appetite looking at these things." Sima Ji lifted up his chopsticks and put some side dishes into his mouth.

"It's better to let the imperial doctor come and have a look, so that I can rest assured." Tang Huoqi put a sour plum from the plate into the plate, and pushed it in front of Sima Ji, "Eat some sour ones first, to whet your appetite."

"It's just sour, but those greasy things should be taken away, and I feel uncomfortable when I smell it." Sima Ji lazily put the sour plum into his mouth, "The imperial doctor still doesn't care, maybe there are too many things recently, It hurts me. It will be better in a while!"

Tang Huoqi frowned slightly, looking at Sima Ji.But he couldn't bear to force her to do anything, so he had to give up.

"Will you go back with me tonight? Mother said she hasn't seen you for a long time, so she's thinking about it."

Since the completion of the Princess Mansion, Sima Ji moved there according to the ancestral system.That's good, by the way, Tang Huoqi was also taken back, and there were more than 20 days in a month when he slept in the Princess Mansion, no wonder Mrs. Tang had the cheek to ask the two of them to go back more lively.

"You can decide this matter." Sima Ji scooped up a spoonful of porridge, put it into his mouth, and swallowed it slowly.

"By the way, more than half of the guards in the princess mansion have been reduced recently. What are you sending them out for?"

"It's nothing." Sima Ji half-closed his eyes, resting his head on his elbows, looking sleepy.

"There are fewer guards, so it's not safe after all. Otherwise, I'll send some servants from the mansion? Look, why did I only drink so many mouthfuls of this porridge, but I ate a lot of sour plums, and I'm not afraid of making my teeth sore It's down. If it doesn't work, let the imperial doctor come over to see..."

"Tang Huoqi! Can you please be quiet for a while! When will it be your turn to decide the affairs of this palace!" For some reason, annoyance suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart, Sima Ji put down his chopsticks fiercely, and said angrily .

……

The servants all lowered their heads and did not dare to move, for fear that their master would be angry.

How many times is this?The princess's temper became more and more irritable. Not only did she yell at her servants, but she also didn't look good towards the son-in-law. Thanks to the son-in-law's good temper...

At this moment, Dongmei, who was standing by and waiting, couldn't help trembling in her heart, silently praying to the Buddha to bless these two people not to quarrel.

"Dongmei, take care of the princess. I have something to do today, so I'm leaving first." Before finishing half of the porridge in the bowl, Tang Huoqi also put down his chopsticks, and left the house sadly after giving an order.

"Master, where are we going?" Tang Si also followed Tang Huoqi out of the princess mansion.I know all about the grievances my young master has suffered these days!If she is not a princess, she must find someone to give them a big slap!What a ignorant woman!

"Let's go to Xuanwu Street to eat zongzi. I haven't used up my breakfast just now." Tang Huoqi sighed, stomped his feet and put on his coat.

Tang Si looked at the magnificent plaque of the Princess Mansion, cursed in his heart, and hurriedly followed his young master who had gone away.

The two arrived at the intersection of the street in a short while, but just as the two were about to walk forward...

Tang Si tugged at her sleeve and said in a low voice: "Master, listen, why is it so noisy in front?"

"There seems to be the sound of a woman crying." Tang Huoqi frowned, "Let's go up and have a look."

The two walked a few steps, and they saw an old woman in rags, sitting on the ground crying, but they didn't know what she was crying about.In front of the mansion stood four big men dressed in black, who seemed to be the guards of the mansion.

"Master, isn't this the house you just took over a few years ago?" Tang Si pointed at the "Xu Mansion" plaque on the front of the house that he hadn't had time to remove.

As if thinking of something, Tang Huoqi's face was slightly blue at the moment, and he asked in a calm voice: "Who are you from? Why are you guarding this mansion?"

The leading big man looked at her arrogantly, sneered and didn't speak.

"Hey! My young master is asking you something! Are you dumb?" Tang Si shouted.

"Go away, little bastard! You cats and dogs can't get in this place!"

"Are you... people from the Princess Mansion?" Tang Huoqi asked with sharp eyes, looking at the dark rusty Princess Mansion logo on the front of the front of the four people's clothes.

"Go away if you know! This is the princess' territory, if you offend the princess and give you ten heads, you won't be able to survive!"

"you……"

"Wait! Tang Si, let's go and ask this old woman what's going on first?" I'm afraid that those guards who look down on people don't know me, and if I insist on being tough, I will be the one to suffer.

"Oh, if I don't hand him over, I'll stay at this door!" The woman was still sitting on the ground crying, ignoring the sideways glances of passers-by.

"Ma'am, what are you doing sitting here?" Tang Si asked.

The woman wiped her nose with her sleeve, looked at the two with teary eyes, and said, "I want someone."

"VIP?"

"I'm miserable! A white-haired man sent a black-haired man, but his only son passed away a few years ago. My master also went there not long ago. I thought there was no hope in this life. Unexpectedly, someone came here a few days ago. Tell me, I might have a grandson alive!" Speaking of the grandson, the old woman was visibly agitated and incoherent.

"Hey, stop, stop!" Tang Si quickly interrupted her, "Then you should go find your grandson! Why are you sitting on the bar here!"

"My grandson is hiding in this mansion!" The woman insisted.

"You old lady, don't talk nonsense!" One of the guards couldn't hear it, so he argued.

"Am I talking nonsense?" The old lady snorted coldly, pointed to the "Xu Mansion" plaque and said, "People from your Princess Mansion have taken over our Xu family's house, even if they want to grab it. Now you don't even let the truth go." Has anyone said it! Now who in Jiangnan doesn't know that the three princesses are looking for my grandson all over the world, I'm afraid they only hide it from your son-in-law! If my son hadn't died in the battle, the princess would be my daughter-in-law now. Who will get her? Now the one who is domineering is playing majestic!"

Chapter 17

"You...you you! What nonsense are you talking about!" Tang Si also became excited, pointing at the woman and shouting.

"Who in Jiangnan doesn't know that the third princess and my son Xu Xian are childhood sweethearts. If I hadn't been unlucky when I was a child and died in the battlefield, she would have been the daughter-in-law of our Xu family!" The old woman squinted at Tang Si, "Now she is so Looking for my grandson with great fanfare, it's not because I want to keep the last bit of Xu family's blood by my side as a thought, isn't this the evidence that I still miss Xian'er! I see, this princess doesn't have that kid from the Tang family in her heart , otherwise how could..."

"Pfft!" Tang Huoqi only felt a sweetness in his throat, and suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and the ground was instantly bright red.

"Master! What's wrong with you, Master!"

"Don't get in the way, don't get in the way..." Tang Huoqi waved his hand, and roughly wiped his mouth with his right hand. The bright red blood stained her beautiful thin lips, adding a touch of coquettishness.

Thoughts are stretched infinitely...

Whether it was her cry of "Dedicated Brother" in her sleep, her support for Xu's house, or her care for that child now... these are the things Tang Huoqi least wants to see and accept.

And these little traces all indicate a fact...

An unspeakable pain suddenly appeared in the chest cavity, which seemed to be suffocation like being unable to breathe.Tang Huoqi clenched his fists tightly, and pulled the corners of his mouth with all his strength, "I haven't tasted the dim sum in Chunyilou for a long time..."

……

Laughing, playing and singing.The extravagant style in Chunyi Building has always been the most touching.How many people are willing to spend a lot of money here, and how many frustrated people are willing to indulge here...

"Master, master..." Tang Si pulled Tang Huoqi's sleeve, "Don't forget that Madam is still waiting for you and the princess to go back for dinner."

"What? If you want me to go back, I have to go back?" Gudong Gudong poured down a jug of wine before continuing, "My young master just won't go back today! What can she do to me!"

"Master..."

When Tang Si wanted to say more, Ye Man shook his head silently at Tang Si while pouring the wine.Tang Si looked at his young master's appearance, and then thought about what he had seen and heard today, he sighed inwardly, closed the door silently and retreated out—for the sake of the princess's mischief
