Chapter 358: He still has this ability

Zhao Su has mixed feelings in her heart, but her shoulders are getting heavier and heavier, and the emperor’s entire body is crouching on her shoulders, like he has no bones. She patted his head: ”Alright, alright, why don’t we just go in and pay a visit? Long San is definitely in their mansion, let’s do a man-in-the-street and simply tear our faces off.”

The emperor straightens up and silently looks at her for a moment before speaking downwards, “If I go now, the Huo family will be gone. If I don’t go now, Long San won’t be able to run away, and neither will he.”

Zhao Su has at least been here for half a year and understands what that means. What kind of person is the emperor? The master of this world. Even the tyrannical King Zhou had Fei Zhong and You Hun as his lackeys, not to mention a young and heroic emperor like him. As long as he makes the slightest noise in the Huo family tonight, there will be countless spears and guns aimed at the Huo family from tomorrow onwards.

Of course it wasn’t that betrayers couldn’t be punished, but what if things weren’t that simple?

The Emperor is also a human being, he also needs a buffer. In case he buffers over and feels like he still wants to meet, oh wow, the person is already gone.

She said, “Then arrest and ask.”

“Don’t.” This stubborn guy said, “Even if I go in now, he still has a way to hide Long San, he still has this skill. Besides, I have to see if he really wants to walk down one path.”

“How to see?”

The emperor again put his hands behind his back and looked up at the moonlight in the sky, “I’m going to wait for him to hand Long San over on his own. –Liang Ying, you immediately pass a decree to the five cities’ military and horse divisions, and tell them to issue a notice at dawn that once the Mid-Autumn Festival is over, the city gates will be closed at once, and state that they will then send more forbidden guards to guard the city with heavy troops.”

Zhao Su was stunned for a moment.

In this case, if Long San wanted to go out, wouldn’t he only have the opportunity to leave tomorrow and the day after tomorrow?

Precisely should only be tomorrow, because on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, in order to prevent chaos, the five cities military division and the Shun Tian government will certainly increase the number of soldiers patrolling. Obviously, tomorrow would be a better day to leave.

“Ah Yu, don’t tell mother about this first.”

Zhao Su nodded. Empress Dowager Lu didn’t know if she already had suspicions. If she hears this news, she doesn’t know how sad she will be. Her love for the Huo siblings and her regret over the death of the eldest princess is not fake.

“Let’s go.”

The emperor greeted and said.

Zhao Su took a look at the Huo family’s corner gate, which had regained its silence, and got on the carriage.

……

August 14th in the capital city streets have begun to wake up early, with the city gates released, has been held for a while outside the city of the townspeople flooded into the city, so along with the fragrance of osmanthus chrysanthemum in the garden along with the fragrance of chrysanthemum drifted into the house, but also the wall on the street vendors yelling.

“Tomorrow at the palace banquet, you will go and propose to the Empress Dowager to go south, and say that your mother’s mausoleum needs to be repaired and looked after, and that you must go back first.”

Huo Xiu side to organize the lapel, one side in the dining table to sit down, spit out the words is not a discussion also does not bring any solicitation, but directly under the command.

“You lied about mother’s tomb, aren’t you afraid that mother’s spirit will blame you?”

Huo Mingyu glares over in resentment.

Huo Xiu is unmoved, and lowers his head to scoop up the congee: “I’ll take the blame for anything, don’t worry about you.”

Huo Mingyu is furious.

“Marquis!” When the atmosphere is stiff, Yao Lin comes in, looks at Huo Mingyu and then walks straight to the side of Huo Xiu, “In the morning, the five cities of the Department of Military Horsepower received a decree, explaining that the gates inside and outside the capital will be closed immediately after the Mid-Autumn Festival night, and all people are not allowed to enter or leave. Moreover, the Emperor will also send the Feilin army to guard the gates.”

The siblings’ movements stop at the same time. Huo Mingyu purses her lips and looks over, and Huo Xiu frowns, “Why the sudden decree?”

“I don’t know at the moment. Anyway, the notice was posted early in the morning, and also clearly stated that it was to arrest the criminal who escaped from the South City a while ago, and now the people in the city are talking about it, mostly in favor of the court to do so.”

Huo Xiu puts down his dental chopsticks, his brows knitting tighter.

Huo Mingyu looks at him askance, “So it seems that you either have to hurry up and send Long San away today, or you have to give up the idea and hand him over. Although no one in our mansion dares to come and search, but with so many people, it’s hard to guarantee that these subordinates haven’t leaked out.”

“Long San is also doing this for mother!”

Huo Xiu glares at her, “Don’t accept some small favors from her, and then blind your eyes and ears and don’t look or listen!”

Huo Mingyu’s cheeks reddened, coldly laughed: “I am those who do not have a little vision, people give some small favors to forget, but also better than those stubborn and pedantic and can not listen to other people’s persuasion of the wood!”

Huo Xiu coldly swept her eyes, no longer pay attention. After a moment, he said to Yao Lin, “Call a few more people out to get a clear picture of the situation.”

“Yes.”

……

Zhao Su kept her eyes open until dawn.

After leaving with the emperor last night, she received the news that Zhao Sum had returned to the residence, and waited for him in the front yard. As the emperor said a few days ago, even if there are clues at the royal tomb, it’s not worthwhile to keep guarding it. Obviously the problem has developed inside the capital, and last night’s events also confirmed that Zhao Sum and the emperor’s decision was correct.

Back to the room after she could not sleep, want to find Zhao Sum to talk about this matter, ran to his room, he is not in …… ask the people in the yard, they also do not know. This has just arrived at home, do not know and busy on where, clearly said earlier to go back to the room to take a bath to rest, even the father would like to chat with him a little more he gave a push.

Then want to go to find clouds want to clothes and flowers want to Rong, knocking clouds want to clothes door, half a day did not knock open, but the next yard of flowers want to Rong led over. The two went to lean on the jade garden with a pot of tea, said to the third night.

In the morning, flowers want to Rong will be wearing the morning mist to bring the news in: “really full of streets are posted notices, five cities Division of the army is also in the row of the duty list. The streets are saying, this time the emperor must be really serious. Of course, there are also people guessing that this dragon three in the end committed what big crime, attracted the emperor’s wrath.”

These guesses are no harm. Anyway, will not last long the truth will come out. Zhao Su asked, “Where is the Huo family?”

“No movement.”

She mused.

Hua Qianrong asked, “Should we send someone to keep an eye on it?”

“No.” Zhao Su shook her head, “His Majesty has already made arrangements, so we don’t need to do more. Huo Xiu is very vigilant, don’t let us not stare into it, but also startle the snakes. By the way, the Empress Dowager explained the matter, how is it?”

“Didn’t Lord Fang send the letter out yesterday? Fang just now I saw that a few sedan chairs have already headed to the Ministry of Ceremonies, I guess it’s the Qui Masters in the city who have taken the lead in going forward to respond.”

“That’s good.” Zhao Su nodded and suddenly thought, “Isn’t Aunt Chen one of the Kui Masters? Did she receive the letter?”

“Naturally received it, but these days she’s at the Yu family to treat Mrs. Marquis Jingnan, I don’t know if she’s found the time to come?”

“Mrs. Marquis Jingnan is sick?”

“Gout only, is said to be an old disease, no major harm, is the pain is unbearable. Dr. Chen went over day after day to give her compresses.”
