Fairy gift

Have other plans.

Zhao Gao is an old man in the palace, and he has been serving the emperor for so many years. He knows the emperor's every move the most. He has always been cautious in his words and deeds and kept planning, so naturally he dare not be careless about every detail.

He felt that Yin Man's "confidence" must have something to do with Ying Zheng.

He thought about it carefully, and suddenly remembered that one year Yingzheng got up at night and found a roll of golden bamboo slips in his bedroom, and thought for most of the night before picking up a pen to write, and the scroll of golden bamboo slips disappeared the next day.

Since he had never seen the golden bamboo slips since then, he naturally forgot them after a long time.

At this time, thinking about it again, all the signs of Ying Zheng that day were very abnormal, so he had to be vigilant again.

So he tentatively asked whether the late Emperor Yinman had left her the golden bamboo slips many years ago.

As soon as Yin Man heard the words "Golden Bamboo Slips", Yin Man's heart trembled and her pupils shrank sharply. Unexpectedly, Zhao Gao knew the existence of the Golden Bamboo Slips. She bit her tongue secretly, tried her best to suppress her anxiety, forced herself to calm down, and tried to Deceived Zhao Gao with a set of rhetoric.

Yin Man's rhetoric is perfect.

It's a pity that he has won over others, and it is even more difficult to deceive Zhao Gao, who has a vicious look.

Zhao Gao is a good old man, and he is also a fox who has lived for ten thousand years. In addition, he has dealt with other foxes many times in the palace all year round. Yinman, a little fox, can't fool her.

The calmer Yin Man was, the more suspicious he became.

It just so happened that Yin Man tried her best to pretend not to know the golden bamboo slips in order to deceive him, which was enough for him to determine the truth.

Not knowing is the same thing, not curious about the content on the bamboo slips, and not wanting to know the whereabouts of the bamboo slips, this is too strange.Yin Man didn't know that she didn't know anything about this trick, and she betrayed herself completely.

Knowing that Yin Man had a bargaining chip against her, she didn't dare to take it lightly, and threatened her with Fu Su's life to reveal the whereabouts of the golden bamboo slips...

Here Tang Zhu and Qing Huan are wandering in the street, Qing Huan has a lot of children's playthings in his hands.The reason why they bought things for children was because the Xianyang Palace was busy with the late emperor's funeral these days, and Fusu and Nan Suxi had no time to take care of Ziying, so they sent Ziying to Zhu's Mansion and asked Tang Zhu to take care of him. take care of.

Apart from instructing Ziying's martial arts every day, Tang Zhu didn't know anything else, and he didn't even know how to get along with children of how old. Fortunately, Qing Huan reminded him, so he realized that in order to get close to children, he must start with what he likes, step by step. Please him.

Although Ziying is the emperor's grandson, he has seen many rare treasures in the palace, but most things are rarely seen among the people.

Tang Zhu and Qing Huan saw that they had bought enough things, so they decided to go back home. Suddenly, they saw a group of officers and soldiers coming out of the alley, grabbing the collars of the people on the street, constantly looking at their faces, and holding the guns in their hands. The picture scroll was unfolded for comparison, as if someone was being arrested.

Suddenly, Tang Zhu heard someone among the officers and soldiers arresting people chanting his name.

Tang Zhu's heart skipped a beat, and a vague premonition came over him.

He hurriedly dragged Qing Huan away from the sight of the officers and soldiers, and walked back to Zhu's mansion by a detour through a remote path.

The gate of Zhu Mansion was open, but no one was guarding the gate. When they entered the gate, they could only hear the faint chirping of birds in the wind, but they could not hear the usual laughter.

Ever since Zhu Shaoyong went out to study art last year, the mansion was deserted. Fortunately, Ziying came. The two wives saw that Ziying was cute and cute, so they took Ziying to play with him in the yard every day.But now, there is no joy and harmony in the yard, only blood flowing, and there are corpses that have been completely cold.

Tang Zhu couldn't ignore the chill on his back. He walked Zhan Weiwei all the way, and saw the gravel road was covered with blood tainted by dust. The blood was still warm the second it flowed out of his body, and there was no temperature at all at the moment. , and some blood flowed into the clear pool water along the cracks in the stones, some blood spots were splashed on the lotus leaves, and there were even drops of blood on the pillars and lanterns...

This scene is too shocking.

Qing Huan was so frightened that her legs softened, she covered her mouth tremblingly, she knew that no matter how frightened she was, she could not cry out, otherwise it would bring danger to her and Tang Zhu.

"Master Tang, were they all killed by the officials who just arrived?" All the officers and soldiers on the road were carrying knives, and she saw blood stains on some of their scabbards.

Tang Zhu felt that his eyes were going black for a while. If he relaxed a little at this moment, he might fall down, but he knew very well that he couldn't fall down yet.

He stared fixedly at the house, the doors and windows were still bright red that frightened people.

"...they're coming after me."

As he spoke, he rushed into the house and searched room by room.

After a while, he slowly walked back to the yard, as if he had lost his mind, and sat on the stone bench in the corridor, staring blankly at the ground.Qing Huan walked over and squatted in front of him, and found that he seemed to be looking at something, but his eyes seemed to be empty, and there was nothing there.

She called softly: "Master Tang." She didn't dare to look back into the room, she probably knew it from Tang Zhu's numb expression, but she still didn't give up and wanted to make sure, "Where are the master and the two ladies? They..." She thought of the terrible result, so she didn't dare to continue.

Tang Zhu didn't speak.

The oppressive silence made Qing Huan couldn't stand crying anymore.

She wiped her tears, sniffed her nose, and asked, "Master Tang, why did the officers and soldiers kill Master and Madam?"

Tang Zhu gradually came back to his senses, and he was also thinking about this issue.Why did officers and soldiers come to Zhufu today?Why do they catch themselves all over the street?

He quickly realized that today was the funeral of the first emperor, and that the people who could send officers and soldiers to break into Zhu's mansion to kill people at this time could only be those fighting for the throne. They must have arrested him to hand over Yin Man to him a year ago, and asked him to keep it safe The Golden Bamboo Slips.

Maybe there are great changes in the palace at this moment, and the two parties are confronting each other.

Then the person who came to kill and silence was one of the contenders for the throne. It is impossible for the eldest brother to wipe out all the uncle's family. The only one who is so ruthless is probably Zhao Gao who is hiding behind Hu Hai.

"Master Tang, you just said that they are coming for you, so isn't your current situation very dangerous?!" Thinking of this, Qing Huan said eagerly, "The officers and soldiers are likely to return, so go away quickly." .”

Tang Zhu: "Okay, you go with me. But wait for me first, I have to get something." He paused, and suddenly remembered that he had just walked around the mansion and didn't see Ziying, He immediately turned around and said to Qing Huan: "I didn't see Ziying just now, he may still be alive, Qing Huan, you go inside to find Ziying."

176, Hu Hai succeeded to the throne

◎Tang Zhu went back to his room and found the golden bamboo slips hidden behind the bricks. When he went out, he happened to meet up with Qing Huan and the others.

"Ziying." Tang Zhu looked at Ziying happily, and asked Qinghuan:

Tang Zhu went back to his room and found the golden bamboo slips hidden behind the bricks. When he went out, he happened to meet Qing Huan and the others.

"Ziying." Tang Zhu looked at Ziying happily, and asked Qinghuan, "Where did you find him?"

Before Qing Huan could answer, Ziying embraced Tang Zhu with tears in her eyes, and said, "Little Master Uncle, when those people rushed in, I wish Grandpa let me go into the room and hide and be quiet. I obeyed and hid under the bed. They didn't find me."

Tang Zhu was in a complicated mood, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.

Ziying remembered that he was hiding under the bed, and saw those people rushing in viciously, holding up their knives and waving around. The servants who usually played with him did not escape, and fell to the ground one by one, bleeding everywhere.He was terrified in his heart, and tugged at Tang Zhu's sleeve: "Little uncle, wish grandpa and grandma are all right?"

It turned out that he didn't know yet.

Tang Zhu was silent for a moment.

It seems that when Qing Huan took Ziying along the way, he avoided it for a while, so that Ziying didn't see their tragic death.After learning about Qing Huan's hard work, Tang Zhu nodded gratefully to Qing Huan.

He touched Ziying's cold face and said with pain, "...they are gone."

Ziying knew what "absence" meant, and his mother had said this to him a few days ago, and her mother told him that the emperor's grandfather was gone, and he would never be able to come back to see him. Unexpectedly, someone is gone now.

He felt uncomfortable and wanted to cry out loud.

But he knew that Tang Zhu didn't like crying children very much. If he was naughty, Tang Zhu would frown. If he cried, Tang Zhu would be very upset.

Tang Zhu didn't know the child's blink of an eye, so he had several thoughts in his mind.

He said to Qing Huan, "Let's go now."

"Have you thought about where we went?"

"I didn't think about it, but I know we have to leave Xianyang now, and find a place to avoid the limelight."

Qing Huan handed over Ziying to Tang Zhu.

"Master Tang, you take Mr. Ziying and leave first."

Tang Zhu was puzzled, "What do you want to do?"

"My young master hasn't come back yet, I want to stay and wait for him." Qing Huan said.

Yes, he almost forgot Zhu Shaoyong.Before his uncle died, he must still remember Zhu Shaoyong who was far away from home. If they left, what would Zhu Shaoyong do?

Tang Zhu thought for a while, "No, it's too dangerous for you to stay. If Zhao Gao didn't catch us, he would definitely catch you." He pondered for a moment, "As for brother Shaoyong, don't worry, I will find a way to find him. Yes." Zhu Shaoyong is the only blood of his uncle, and even if he tries his best, he will never let him have the slightest mistake.

Qing Huan was still hesitating, Tang Zhu was worried that she would change her mind and insisted on staying, so she hurriedly interrupted her train of thought and said, "Okay, that's it, let's leave here first and find a safe place to stay , I will come back and find someone when you and Ziying are safe."

Suddenly someone outside the door shouted: "You don't have to come back!"
