"Mother!" Ouyang Ji threw herself into He Ji's arms.

She couldn't stay reserved, and negative emotions such as sadness, fear, hesitation, and remorse accompanied her all day, and the nervousness when she first entered the city and the excitement of seeing her loved ones now, the emotional contrast was so intense that she needed to be completely vented.

He Ji hugged her daughter, looked at Shaodianluan with apologetic eyes, and said, "It's rude! Your Royal Highness Princess, please let Lao Shen take her daughter down to change her clothes, and I will officially see you later." ”

"Yes, ma'am, please. Shaodian Luan can understand.

"Trouble Lord Feng to receive the princess and the colt on behalf of the old man. Before leaving, He Ji asked Feng Run. She is the lady of Yipinhou, and there is no problem in asking the officials of the Senate for a favor.

"The Ouyang family is worse than our Ding family. Ding Kui couldn't help but sigh.

"The Ding family is miserable?" Feng Run didn't quite understand.

"Yes, there are only two people left in our family at the worst time, and now that I have children, the situation has only improved slightly, but how to say that my family still has a descendant male, although the Ouyang family has collateral children but no descendant males. Ding Kui said simply.

"For the sake of national affairs, the Ding family, regardless of their lineage, fathers, sons and brothers can go into battle, and they are a model in our army. "I admire it very much.

"If the Ding family wants to be able to fight like you, does Shaodian still need to protect the country?" Feng Run offered the horses. This former opponent beat a great martial artist in front of him today, and there were only a few dozen moves before and after.

"Jia Weng once said that he is an outlier in our family, he was born in the bloody rain, grew up in the shadow of swords and swords, and left his newly married concubine on the battlefield as soon as he became an adult. ”

Except for Shaodianluan, no one dared to say this.

"It's not that scary, is it? Senior brother has always been the most obedient, and Daddy rarely blames him. Lu Ying still chose a senior brother among her senior brother and sister-in-law.

Ding Fen glanced at Shaodianluan and did not speak.

"Hehe, this is the natural god of war! Isn't that female general god of Meng also defeated by you. Feng Run continued to tout.

"Well, that's not my fault. Ding Kui didn't dare to wear this high hat, "Helian Yu can command millions of soldiers from different countries, at that time it was about the same age as my current age, a woman with this ability, she was the first person I know." ”

"It's not easy. Feng Run thinks he doesn't have this ability.

"Isn't it just that Helian's family has business dealings with us, as for blowing it like this?" Shaodian Luan was not convinced.

"You don't know, Helian Yu already commanded the fleet to fight against our navy when she was younger, to put it mildly, none of our navy generals are her opponents, the old marquis here, well, cough cough. Feng Run looked outside and didn't say any more.

Ding Kui and the others instantly understood, the old Zhulang Hou, Ouyang Cheng's father, could be said to have died in the hands of Helian Yu.

Ouyang Ji had already changed her clothes and came out again to meet everyone under the leadership of He Ji.

"The surviving He, the Marquis of Zhulang, brought his daughter Ouyang Cheng to meet Her Royal Highness the princess and the concubine. He Ji personally served tea and invited Shaodian Luan and Ding Kui to take a seat.

Everyone sat down again, He Ji stood up again, bowed to Ding Kui to the ground, and thanked Ding Kui for saving her daughter's life, Ding Kui quickly got up and helped.

"Zhao Gang lost his conscience and did this heinous thing, and hoped that the Senate would be the master of the Ouyang family. He Ji is calmer than Ding Kui imagined.

Ouyang Ji has told her mother what happened to her just now, He Ji has experienced the loss of her husband in middle age and the loss of her son in old age, and her psychological tolerance is extremely high, although she is sad and angry to learn that her daughter was humiliated, she can control her emotions well in front of outsiders.

Zhao Gang disregarded the law and discipline and gathered a crowd to besiege the welcoming mission, and the lower officials saw it with their own eyes, and this crime alone must not be spared. Feng Run hurriedly stated his position.

"Clan elder Ouyang Bo came to the door to ask to see. "There are guards in the main hall to spread the word.

A hint of discoloration flashed on He Ji's face, and he said, "Please ask him to wait in the side hall." ”

Ping, Ouyang Cheng just picked up the cup and put it down heavily, "I was looking for him!" She stood up.

"There are still guests here!" He Ji stretched out her hand and motioned for her daughter to sit down, "Your Highness, donkey, the old man is going to deal with the mundane affairs at home, and let the concubine accompany you for the time being, and confess." After saying that, he left on his own.

Ding Kui gave Feng Run a look, Feng Run understood, and asked Ouyang Ming: "Is there anything inconvenient?" ”

"Do you still remember the restaurant 'Keyunlai'? That is the industry of this clan elder. Ouyang Hui's face flushed, and the heart that had just calmed down was excited again.

Ouyang Bo is the elder of the Ouyang family, his side family Ding Xingwang, the old, middle and young generations have outstanding talents, helping the Hou Mansion manage many affairs in the territory, and he also has many industries in Jiahe County, "Keyunlai" restaurant is one of them.

"Oh? I may have guessed correctly, Ouyang Bo and Zhao Gang have colluded. Ding Kui became vigilant.

Liang Chong interjected: "I can't make a conclusion for the time being, it depends on what he is doing now." Miss Ouyang doesn't have to worry, Hengzhu is a member of your Ouyang family, and he can't run away if he wants to, if he really does something sorry for you, he can clean it up at any time. ”

"I forgot to tell you that the commander of the city defense army is his son, and that there are many of his children and grandchildren in my family's private army. Ouyang Cheng's face became ugly.

At first, she didn't suspect Ouyang Bo, but now the more she thinks about it, the more wrong it becomes.

"If something goes wrong with you, who will take over as the Marquis of Chasing Waves?" Ding Kui asked a very sensitive question.

"It is very likely that one of the descendants of this clan elder will be chosen. Ouyang Cheng felt her mouth bitter.

Ding Kui and Liang Chong glanced at each other, and both of them saw that it was really like this.

"Is Jiahe County still under the control of your mother and daughter?" Ding Kui simply asked more directly, "Don't hide it from me, I can help you seize control." ”

He is now a high lord and has experience in managing places.

"I don't know if my mother can do it?" Ouyang Cheng couldn't be sure.

The Ouyang family didn't plan to let her take care of things, her brother died in battle at the beginning of the year, and most of the family's affairs were managed by He Ji, and the housekeeper and several clan elders helped, but she didn't interfere at all.

The burden of the family is all on He Ji's shoulders, and now she has to face an even greater crisis.

"Is there anything important about Bo Lao coming here so late?" she controlled her tone and tried to be as gentle as possible.

"I heard that Miss is back, is it true?" Ouyang Bo is over seventy, his body is still strong, his waist is straight, and he is taller than the commander of the city defense army.

"Yes, it was sent back by your son. She also invited the princess of Shaodian Kingdom to come to the door as a guest, and I am not accompanying the guests. He Ji hinted that she was busy.

How shrewd the real power elder was, if he usually got up and said goodbye, but Ouyang Bo didn't move, his tiger eyes were bright.

He continued: "Yesterday, Miss was lost in 'Keyunlai', and the old man was so anxious that he immediately sent people to investigate, and even sent them to a neighboring county.

At noon, someone told the old man an incredible thing, and the old man didn't believe it at all, but now the old man doesn't know how to tell you. ”

He Ji glanced at the people in the side hall, his brows furrowed slightly, there were two guards standing at the door, one of them was from Ouyang Bo's family.

She took a deep breath and asked, "What is this incredible?"

Ouyang Bo also glanced around and said, "I just want to tell you about this matter." ”

He Ji's body leaned back slightly, folded her hands in front of her abdomen, and raised her voice to order: "Everyone go out, Ouyang Pu, you are alone in front of the door, and no one is allowed to approach." ”

She found that Ouyang Bo's eyes were flashing wildly, and she looked like she wanted to say something, so she said: "Ouyang Pu is a close confidant of her deceased husband, and he is the person I trust the most in the house, and I will not hide anything from him." ”

"Hehe!" Ouyang Bo laughed dryly, "Then the old man boldly said it, this is from outsiders, yes, yes......"

He swallowed, and saw that He Ji didn't interrupt, so he continued: "It is rumored that Miss Rumor suddenly fell in love with Ding Kui of Shaodian Country somehow, and learned that Ding Kui had recently passed by Shuangjianghui Waterfall, and planned to sneak over and have a private meeting with that Ding Kui. ”

Speaking of this, he secretly observed He Ji's expression, and He Ji seemed to be leaning very comfortably, her eyes slightly closed, not knowing if she was listening to him.

"Ahem. He deliberately coughed dryly, "The old man didn't believe it at first, but someone saw the young lady jump into the river, and saw with his own eyes that a master knight who stepped on the dragon-shaped fighting spirit saved the young lady, and it was rumored that the young lady had an affair with Ding Kui, but she was discovered by the eldest princess of Shaodian and forced her to commit suicide by jumping into the river." ”

"Who did Bo always listen to such ridiculous rumors?" He Ji suddenly opened his eyes, "The eldest princess of Shaodian and Martin Kui were invited by the queen to come to our country to celebrate the birthday of the queen mother, I also just knew about this matter, how could she know that she had been at home for a long time, how could she know?"

"Well, don't worry, Madame, I also heard from others, and I just heard that Miss was returning to the city with foreign guests, so I came here to ask. ”

Ouyang Bo's response was very tactful, leaving no one with any handle, but in and out of the words, Ouyang Ji and Ding Kui were closely linked.

He Ji suddenly straightened up and said: "Who forced my daughter to jump into the river? This matter must be investigated clearly, if Bo Lao has or can get conclusive evidence, I hope you can hand it over to me."

Although there is no man in the Ouyang family, it is not allowed to be insulted by others! Shaodianluan and Ding Kui are at home, and I can question them with evidence. However, if what you say is just a rumor, the old body can't afford to lose this person. ”

"Of course! Actually, the young lady has already gone home, and the truth of the matter will be known as soon as you ask. This, it's not early, it's inconvenient for the old man to stay, please ask the lady to greet the young lady on behalf of the old man. Ouyang Bo got up and said goodbye.

"Walk slowly. He Ji sent him out of the side hall.

Ouyang Pu bowed down and stood next to He Ji, and whispered, "Just let him go?"

"Otherwise, kill him? That would be in the hands of the people behind him, and tomorrow there will be rumors outside that I killed the clan elder in order to cover up my daughter's ugly deeds. Ouyang Bo is just a pawn of others. He Ji was trembling at the moment.
