He Shikun spent half a day at sea to find out the direction of the return journey. When he returned to the imperial city, it was already dark, because it was so late that even the queen didn't know that he had returned.

He arranged for the soldiers to rest in the mansion.

When He Shikun returned to his room, he hurriedly summoned the two lieutenants on the left and right, but the one in charge hesitated for a long time and said, "General, during the time you were away, many things happened in the mansion."

He Shikun took a sip of sweet tea with great difficulty, but his mood was kicked to the bottom by the steward's words. He frowned and said, "Is it because the queen has made a move?"

"Yes, Lieutenant Zuo drank too much wine two days ago, and touched a court lady, almost raped her. The queen found out about this and arrested him. He was charged with confusing the palace rules at noon tomorrow. I'm going to kill him." Then the steward continued, "As for the right deputy general... I don't know what tricks the queen used, but he took refuge in the queen and has now been appointed as the co-prefect of the Imperial Guard."

When He Shikun heard the words, he laughed and said, "Okay, the queen made a move immediately after I left." He didn't look angry, as if he had expected the current situation.

"You fly a pigeon to send a letter to the generals of the West and North Gorges, instructing them to block the entire northern border and not allow anyone from the northern border to pass through the checkpoint. They say that the people from the northern border have gone crazy and bite anyone they see. Then ask Liang Xie to dispatch [-] troops to the fishing port to eliminate these infected people, and there must be no one left behind."

"Yes, General."

He Shikun put down his teacup and sneered.

Waited until the next morning.

The left deputy general was put on the execution ground in white clothes, his hair was disheveled, and his eyes were full of anger: "I didn't do anything to her, the queen wronged me!"

The guards naturally wouldn't listen to him.

There was no one around the execution ground. The people at this point were either hiding at home to sleep or going to the streets to do business. How could they know that there was going to be a big show on the execution ground.

The official who supervised the beheading sat down on the chair, and before noon, he ordered the executioner to carry out the execution. The left deputy heard the words and yelled: "You care about human life, and the general will not let you off easily when he comes back."

"Heh, I'm afraid you won't be able to wait, so hurry up and execute!"

The executioner took down the sign and held the knife tightly with his strong hands. As soon as he raised his hand, he was stopped by He Shikun. Smiling and explaining that it was the queen's order, he was also very embarrassed.

He Shikun didn't bother to talk nonsense, so he took the people away directly. If the queen was dissatisfied, she could talk to him directly. Seeing that there were hundreds of people behind him, the beheading officials had to let the left deputy go first, and then turned around and told the queen about He Shikun's robbery of the execution ground. .

The queen was shocked on the spot, but the habit of not being surprised has been cultivated for many years, so she kept a good demeanor and said calmly: "When did He Shikun come back? Why didn't anyone inform me?"

"Go back to your mother, maybe you came back in the middle of the night last night." Taifu was admitted to the palace by the queen early in the morning, and he didn't even have time to wipe off the gum on his eyes.

"Could it be that Changle has already reached northern Xinjiang?"

"I don't know." The Taifu said, "As early as His Highness Changle left the imperial city, no news came back after the heavy rain. Right now, the empress has already torn skins with He Shikun, and I ask the empress to make plans as soon as possible."

The queen's fingertips unconsciously pressed the table, she pursed her lips and said: "Make a plan, what are the plans, if you really want to make a move, wouldn't you let Changle take advantage of it?"

"Your Majesty, His Highness Chang Le is a princess after all, and she has been with her for several years. No matter how bad it is, she is better than someone with a foreign surname like He Shikun!"

The queen didn't speak, because in her opinion, He Shikun was better than Chang Le. She could find any reason to move He Shikun, but it was not easy to move Si Qinglian. If she didn't commit a heinous crime, she couldn't do it. Only then did she want to win over Si Qinglian and marry her into her family, but with He Shikun around, her plan was difficult to realize, so she had to let him go first.

Now that He Shikun is back, the empress thinks about appeasement first, but the Taifu obviously doesn't think so, he proposes to take advantage of the victory to pursue and kill He Shikun as soon as possible, even if he hurts the enemy by a thousand, he will not hesitate to hurt himself by eight hundred.

"Your Majesty, most of the defenders in the imperial city are Madam's people, so why not get rid of He Shikun when there is no one in his hands, Madam, don't hesitate!"

He Shikun's soldiers are the soldiers of the He family, and they are also very strong. There are two thousand people. Everyone is not afraid of death. The soldiers stand on their own, and the queen has nothing to do with him.

"Miss?"

The Queen waved her hands, feeling irritable: "Teacher, go back first, let Ben Gong think about it." She said she was thinking about it, but in fact she already had a bias in her heart.

Tai Tu had no choice but to resign.

"Come here, Xuan He Shikun."

As soon as the grand tutor left, the queen turned around and asked the eunuch to invite someone to He Shikun's mansion. He Shikun seemed to be ignorant of the queen's ambition, but entered the palace very easy-going, without any abnormal state.

A man from the palace passed by with a cart, and there were two large barrels on the cart, which were specially used to hold night incense, but there was no stench in the barrel, which seemed a bit strange, He Shikun just glanced at it and followed his father-in-law. See the queen.

He didn't notice a drop of blood dripping from the barrel. The palace servants pushed the cart and didn't go to deal with Yexiang, but sneaked to the mass grave at the back of the palace. The palace maids put on veils and gloves and threw the dead people in the bucket. It was quickly buried in the pit, and there were many small mounds in the land near the pit.

When the palace people were burying the corpse, a mound in the distance looked a little weird. Some sand suddenly rolled down from the originally calm soil layer, which looked like it was blown by the wind, so no one paid attention.

He Shikun greeted the queen and saluted politely.

The dining table in the hall is complete with wine and food.

The queen smiled, and waved her hands back to the left and right, leaving only He Shikun in front of her. She seemed to be a different person, just like a little woman seeing her husband who returned, looking happy and coquettish: "I didn't expect you to come back so soon. I heard that you The journey encountered some difficulties, how is Changle doing now?"

"The Empress is quite concerned about His Royal Highness Chang Le, don't worry, she is stronger than all of us imagined, what can happen." He Shikun squinted his eyes, and was unmoved by the Queen's deliberate flattery, "It's the Empress who has learned to In order to take advantage of the fire."

"If you change your position with Bengong, General He will only do better than Bengong." The queen picked up the wine glass on the table, took a sip before handing it to him, "Besides, the general dares to come to Bengong. Didn't Gong here just want to shake hands and make peace?"

He Shikun took the glass with a smile and drank it down. He threw down the glass and hugged the queen, saying: "As for me, I like the most ambitious woman like the queen."

The queen smirked, she wasn't the kind of naive/girl who just fell in love, she knew very well in her heart that He Shikun's favorite would only be a weak woman like Xia Ningle who needed to rely on him.

"Although I can shake hands with the empress to make peace, can the empress hand over to me the lieutenant who betrayed me?" He Shikun's tone didn't sound like a request, it was very tough.

The Queen's eyebrows and eyes were a little cold. If someone handed over, no one would dare to rely on her in the future. She knew this in her heart.The queen pushed He Shikun away and said, "What if I don't agree?"

"It doesn't matter, anyway, I have already sent someone to invite him."

"He Shikun, how dare you!"

He Shikun grabbed the queen's neck, and just as she was about to call for someone, He Shikun staggered and pushed her onto the bed, and was overwhelmed by him. The man's rough breath rang in her ears: "Why don't I dare, the guards in ambush are still waiting for you!" Please take it down, empress, I presumably don't want others to see what happened next."

The queen turned her head to one side: "Everyone back down."

He Shikun smiled, and rudely untied the queen's clothes while kissing, saying, "You and I are both rats in the gutter, destined to be inseparable."

She is the same kind of person as he is.

Being able to climb up by any means, being inhumane, but delusional to see the light, so you have to wear a layer of sheepskin to find the sunshine that can accept their filth. He Shikun found it, and he thought he was Xia Ningle. As for the queen, maybe it was Prince.

When He Shikun left the queen's bedroom, it was past noon, and the palace servants watched him arrange his clothes and leave, as if they were used to it.

The palace man gave the empress the Bizi soup, and the empress drank it wearing a coat. She frowned and said, "Quietly give Qin Youming some clues, and ask him to deal with He Shikun."

"Won't the empress get rid of him?"

"It's not necessary, anyway, it wasn't Ben Gong who killed the Holy Majesty."

"Yes, ma'am."

……

A little white rabbit fled in the forest in a panic. It jumped fast and fast, but it couldn't shake off the tall and mighty figure behind it.

"Whoosh." A sharp arrow pierced the rabbit's head.

Blood everywhere.

Geng Zhi picked up the rabbit, the arrowhead had been roasted by fire, and washed it with water. Geng Zhi skillfully peeled the skin and roasted it. The rabbit meat was roasted in a short while, and the guards were still allowed to eat first, and the remaining skin was used by Geng Zhi. There is only one pot for oil extraction, but it was requisitioned by Song Yuhang, so they can only use a knife to cross it left and right, and use it as an iron pan.

Song Yuhang was milking a goat. He found this goat in a hunter's house in the mountains. The hunter didn't know where to go, but the goat had just given birth, and the lamb seemed to be healthy.

At that time, Song Yuhang was really hungry, so he killed the lamb and ate the stew. His luck was good, and nothing happened, so there was a scene of honestly hunting the rabbit. Song Yuhang kept the ewe, and Yu'er ate the goat's milk The body is also healthy.

The goat milk was boiled in the pot, diluted with some water, Song Yuhang brought two bowls of milk to Xia Ningle, and said: "This bowl of goat milk is for Yu'er, there is not much left, I will secretly keep it for you Take a bowl and drink it while it's hot."

After finishing speaking, Song Yuhang cheerfully went to pass half a bowl of goat's milk to Si Qinglian, and everyone drank the rest of the goat's milk in one gulp.

The smell of goat's milk was a bit offensive, and Xia Ningle was not used to it, so after the milk had cooled down a bit, he pinched his nose and drank it. Then he used a reed stalk as a straw, and fed the goat's milk to Yu'er little by little.

Song Yuhang came to Xia Ningle's side after finishing his work, and boasted, "Aren't I good enough to take good care of Yu'er by myself?"

"Well, great."

"Is it very manly?"

"Well, very manly, super handsome."

Si Qinglian was listening on the sidelines, and the more he listened, the more annoyed he became, and now he hated Song Yuhang even more. He was obviously good-looking, and the things he did were indeed commendable.

But Si Qinglian just annoyed him.
