The Empress Dowager, surnamed Wang, is the eldest daughter of the Langya Wang family. She is the most powerful woman in the Yan Dynasty today.

Three months ago, when the emperor visited the mausoleum, he was assassinated by the Red Lotus Sect. He fell into the Mengjiang Pond at the foot of the imperial mausoleum, and fell into a coma for three days and three nights.

The Empress Dowager felt extremely miserable, so she drove to the Jiqing Garden Palace the next day to chant scriptures and pray for the emperor.

I thought it would take a year and a half to come back after this trip...Unexpectedly, it was only three months.

Throughout the ages, assassination of kings and cavaliers has been considered a common occurrence. On average, a small assassination every three years and a major assassination every five years.

The Red Lotus Sect acted so bravely that they were stabbed twice in just three months.

Yan Chao's people were excited for a while, looking forward to the early death of the Hunjun.

The only exception is the Yongyi Hou Mansion.

In the mansion, Qu Jinyao walked quickly through the chasing corridor, crossed the hanging flower doorway, and went straight into the jade terrace courtyard of the inner house.

In the yard, small willows are watering the jasmine with a water ladle. In midsummer, the snow-white flowers gradually unfold, like a layer of shallow snow in winter.

Seeing him come in, he saluted: "Young Lord, the county lord—"

"Sister, are you up yet? Sister?" Qu Jinyao jumped up the steps, stood under the porch and slammed on the door.

He was very emotional, his bun was not completely tied, his hair fell down and covered one ear, and the crown of his hair disappeared.

What a system!

Little Yangliu separated him from the door, tall and straight like a door god, thrusting her waist and said: "The county lord has been crying since she came back from the palace, and she locked herself in the room for two days and didn't come out, so don't bother her."

Qu Jinyao asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

Little Yangliu's eyes stared like copper bells: "I want to ask you, little lord! The county lord entered the palace with you, and you must be the one who bullied her!"

Qu Jinyao was wronged, they crawled out of a mother's belly, and it was too late for him to hurt her.

Since his mother passed away, his father has been reluctant to take up the position of the second housekeeper. The housekeeper's affairs naturally fell on the shoulders of the younger sister, the legitimate daughter. There are many things to worry about, but the younger sister is a resolute character and never shed tears.

It was the first time I cried for two days in a row!

He continued to slam on the door: "Sister, who bullied you? You tell brother! His grandma's! After eating the bear's heart and leopard's guts, dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head, I will have to skin him, and put him back again!" Cut it into eight pieces! Throw it into the moat to feed the fish—"

The door creaked open.

A white skirt flashed past the door.

Qu Jinyao stepped in, still asking questions.

But Qu Jinying didn't pay attention, she pushed aside the bead curtain and went into the East Room, sitting by the window in a daze, fiddling with a small pot of mint from time to time with her slender fingertips.

Staring at her lonely and slender back, Qu Jinyao tried hard to think whether there was any official son who didn't have long eyes offended her at the Wanshou Banquet.

After asking a few names, Qu Jinying shook his head.

It happened that Xiao Yangliu brought breakfast, a bowl of millet porridge and a few dishes of light and delicious side dishes.

"Young master is here, let's have some food with the county master too!" She pressed her fingertips to the edge of the bowl, and after confirming that the temperature was just right, she took the bowl into Qu Jinying's hands.

Qu Jinyao had eaten in his concubine's room, and refused decisively.

When he raised his eyes, he met Xiao Yangliu's eyes of hatred.

"Young Master, the county lord hasn't eaten much for two days."

He understood, opened his dark green robe and sat at the table.

By the window, Qu Jinying was still sitting there, but instead of stroking the mint, he picked up the spoon in the bowl.

Qu Jinyao looked at her face quietly, her face was pale, and there was no look at all.

In the early morning of July, the sun was shining brightly, but the house was surprisingly quiet and slightly eerie.

Qu Jinyao couldn't figure out what could make his noble and elegant sister become like this.

Reluctantly, his brain was not enough, so he had to ask Xiao Yangliu for help.

"The second room is picking up trouble again?"

"Are you angry with dad again?"

"Diao slaves appear again among the servants?"

Little Yangliu spread out her hands, expressing that she didn't know.

Qu Jinyao picked up the bamboo chopsticks and stuffed two mouthfuls of vegetables into his mouth, and decided to get down to business first: "My dear sister, our family is going to end!"

Come early in the morning to add trouble to the county lord.

Little Yangliu glared at him.

Qu Jinying remained motionless.

Qu Jinyao simply moved Xiudun over, and sat down in front of her: "You don't know yet, Long Live was assassinated."

Emperor Jiayi is the ninth emperor since the founding of the country. He is fatuous, incompetent and tyrannical. He has been in power for four years, and the number of assassinations has repeatedly hit new highs.

"Does this have anything to do with our Hou Mansion?" Xiao Yangliu interrupted.

Qu Jinyao thought she didn't understand the rules, so he drove her out, and then continued: "The Queen Mother rushed back to the palace overnight, and heard that she didn't sleep all night, and she is currently investigating people? Guess who? Everyone."

After talking to himself for a while, Qu Jinying finally had some reaction, and turned to look at him with some doubts in his eyes.

Qu Jinyao: "At the Longevity Night Banquet, Beijing officials of the third rank and above bring all their family members to the banquet. There are people coming and going, and it is inevitable that some idlers will be mixed in. Maybe assassins will be among them."

Isn't that going to check everyone's head?

Qu Jinying was able to see through, rubbing his weeping sore eyes: "...Are you afraid that you will be found hooking up with the court lady?"

"Where did we hook up, we were... making friends."

During the night banquet, her brother left the banquet and secretly went to Shibakehuai to have a tryst with a court lady, but she didn't return. She was worried and went to look for him, but got lost and went into the Hall of Martial Heroes, where she ran into the palace maid. Apprentice...

Thinking of this, she was angry and hated, and her eyes were stained with red circles in disappointment.

I can't wait to cut that disciple into pieces.

"Good sister," Qu Jinyao smiled bemusedly, grabbed her cuff and tugged, "This is a serious crime of getting tattooed and exiled, you can't just ignore death."

"Do not commit suicide."

"It will implicate the Hou Mansion, we are grasshoppers on the same rope."

Qu Jinying took a break from the sadness for a while, and there was a calmness between his brows. He took a sip of millet porridge, picked up the bowl, and paced back and forth in the boudoir, trying to find a solution.

Assassinating the king is a big deal, the queen mother always dotes on the emperor, she will never let it go, and she has a temperament that would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go, the Hou family is afraid that it will be implicated.

"Long live, are you injured?" She turned around, her clothes rippling like jasmine flowers in a garden.

Qu Jinyao jumped up: "I heard that I was slapped!"

Qu Jinying was stunned: "Slap... slap?"

"Ah."

"...Where did you get slapped?"

"The Hall of Martial Arts."

Rumbling, five thunders struck Qu Jinying's Tianling Gai.

Qu Jinyao scolded carelessly: "The assassin really knows how to choose the time. He doesn't kill you in the morning or in the evening, but he will kill you when I have a tryst with someone. How close is the Hall of Martial Arts to Shibacai? If you jump into the Yellow River, you won't be able to cleanse yourself!"

Qu Jinying's knees softened and she fell down on the beauty's couch.

Dengtuzi is the emperor.

That stupid gentleman!

She slapped Hunjun across the face!

"Sister." Qu Jinyao supported her wobbly figure, "Frightened?"

His younger sister has always had the most ideas and methods. She is not a lady who does not leave the door of ordinary people's house. Even she is so scared that she is afraid that she will really encounter a big problem.

He poured a cup of tea in a panic, and passed it to her mouth to feed her. The action was too hasty, and most of it spilled on her dress.

"It's over, it's over, I really caused trouble for our family! Sister, you should say something, don't scare me."

Qu Jinying's eyes moved, and his tone was unusually calm: "I'm counting."

"Count... what?"

"For the Zhujiu family, how many heads fell in our family?"

Qu Jinyao's lips turned pale immediately, her whole body trembled like sifting chaff, she fell to the ground, and cried heart-piercingly: "I'm flirting with the court lady and I'm going to punish the nine clans! Sister, brother, I'm sorry Ah! Father, the child is not filial! Mother, the son will come down to accompany you immediately!"

After greeting all the immediate family members, he beat his chest and made the final conclusion: "There is a knife on Sezi's head!"

Qu Jinying: "Brother, it's not your fault, it's me—"

Before he finished speaking, the steward of the front yard came, and an internal official sent a message to invite the young master to enter the palace with her.

Qu Jinyao panted heavily: "Sister, let's run."

At the same time, the steward of the West Courtyard also came, and asked Qu Jinying to go there by all means, the second lady was making trouble for the third lady again, and almost got into a fight.

Sanfang was originally a lady from an official family. Her father was an official in Zhongshushe. He beheaded for a crime, and the whole family was imprisoned. She acted as an official prostitute.

Born in a scholarly family, with ups and downs throughout his life, he is naturally knowledgeable, reasonable, open-minded and forbearing, and rarely confronts Erfang head-on, what happened today?

Confused, Qu Jinying finally went to lie down, and returned after an hour, and hurried into the palace with his father and brother.

In the spacious and gorgeous carriage, a family of three has their own concerns.

Yongyi Hou Quao: "In troubled times, when you enter the palace, don't see anything wrong with it, don't listen to anything wrong with it, and don't speak anything wrong with it."

Qu Jinyao nodded guiltily.Qu Jinying said nothing, her body swayed slightly with the carriage.

The former was the most incapable of hiding things, and said timidly with his head drooping: "Father, my son is confused, he acts recklessly on weekdays, and has failed your careful teaching."

Weeping while talking.

It kind of smells like a last words.

Qu Ao said in a deep voice: "Zhu Zi, have you caused trouble again?"

"Ah."

"What a disaster?"

"...a catastrophe..."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Qu Ao had already started to practice the motto "a filial son is born under a stick".

He was originally a civil servant, but later he abandoned literature and joined the military and joined the army. He has the demeanor of a Confucian scholar, and also has the vulgarity of a reckless man, but this side of a reckless man is only shown in front of Zhu Zi.

Qu Jinyao cried out in pain, and the more he shouted, the harder he beat.

Unable to take it anymore, Qu Jinying called for a stop, opened the curtain of the car and wanted to go out to take a breath, when he poked his head out, he found that there was a traffic jam on the wide Huangcheng Road.

The chariots and horses of each family were crowded together, all of them were going to the palace.

The sun was scorching, and the horses were so hot that they neighed one another.The coachmen of each family were also urging each other fiercely.People are more like being trapped on a fire, sweating profusely.

Qu Jinying is upset...

Qu Jinying: You bullied me, but you still want to punish my nine clans, there is no law for kings~
