"County Lord, there are footsteps outside." Iris turned to support Hua Liuli who was leaning on the bed, but Hua Liuli moved faster than her and sat up without her support.

"Miss Iris." The female official stood outside and did not come in. She saw Iris coming out and asked in a low voice, "Can the county chief be neatly dressed? Your Majesty has sent an imperial decree, please go out to receive the order when you are ready."

"Thank you, sister, I'll tell the county master." Iris gave the palace maid a salute, turned and strode back to the inner room.

"County Lord..."

Hua Liuli sat in front of the mirror and sorted out the hairpin jewelry: "I heard."

Iris helped her press down the hem of her skirt, and she said with some self-doubt: "Left eye jumps for money and right eye jumps for disaster, should the servant remember correctly?"

"That's right." Hua Liuli stood up and held Iris's hand: "Help your poor county lord, let's go."

Holding the county owner's soft hand, Iris' heart instantly calmed down.

"Wait." Hua Liuli suddenly let go of Iris's hand, turned around and put on the amulet under the pillow.

Iris: "… "

The county chief looks calm on the surface, but his behavior is honest.

"County Lord, didn't you say you don't believe this?" Iris asked in a low voice.

"You don't know who I am?" Hua Liuli said confidently, "When did you say anything?"

Iris: "For things like praying to God and worshipping Buddha, it is more spiritual to be sincere."

"Nonsense, gods and Buddhas are very tolerant, even if I am not religious enough in normal times, they will still bless me at critical moments." Hua Liuli touched the amulet hidden under her clothes, and she was inexplicably confident in her good luck.

The moment she stepped out of the inner room, Iris's smile was submissive, Hua Liuli's footsteps were slow, and the two masters and servants always had an incomparable tacit understanding in front of outsiders.

The palace maid originally wanted to reach out to help Iris to support the Hua County Lord, but she felt that doing so would be suspicious. She glanced at Iris with some envy. The servant who is so trusted by the master is the luck that many people can't expect.

Walking into the main hall, Hua Liuli saw the prince holding the imperial decree, the third brother in full costume, and a few unknown civil servants.

Seeing Hua Liuli coming in, the prince opened the imperial decree: "Hua County Lord, there is an imperial decree here for you, take the decree."

Hua Liuli knelt down on the futon that had been prepared, Hua Changkong flipped the corner of her robe and knelt beside her. The two brothers and sisters exchanged glances pretending to be inadvertent, and they were all at a loss.

It stands to reason that since she entered Beijing, she wanted to let everyone in the capital know that she was a medicine jar that fell down when the wind blew, and the Queen Mother and Son of England should not want her to be the princess.

What's more, marriage is not an enmity. Several generations of the Hua family have made great contributions to Dajin. Even if His Majesty really wants her to be a royal daughter-in-law, he will discuss with her parents in advance before issuing the imperial decree. Let her marry someone.

Seeing that the little girl clenched her sleeves nervously, the prince unfolded the imperial edict and read it faster.

Hua Liuli: Oops, the front is full of words praising her father, and things seem to be a little off.

"Ying Ting's daughter, like my half-daughter..."

Hua Liuli covered her chest, she was going to vomit blood, she was going to be seriously ill, she was going to die.

"Be the honor of the county master, and give BMW fertile land."

Hua Liuli: Your Majesty, according to the standard of the prince's eldest daughter, came to give her a title, and it is not an empty title, and there are mansion estates

What happened, suddenly gave her a title of princess? Could it be that my father accidentally shot down the tortoiseshell country next to Jin Po

"Blessed with the title of blessing and longevity."

What the hell

Hua Liuli couldn't believe her ears. She was such a weak little beauty, how good it is to use "Shu An, Rou Yi" in the title, what is Fushou

Not the watchdog in the barracks.

"The minister and daughter are not talented, thank you for your grace." Hua Liuli raised her hands above her head, "Suddenly hearing this joy, the minister and daughter are extremely frightened. In the future, she will abide by her heart and live up to the high expectations of Your Majesty."

The prince put the imperial decree in Hua Liuli's hands and asked the female official in the palace to help her up: "The county master's mansion has not been repaired yet. If the county master has any ideas, he can hand over the drawings to the Ministry of Engineering and let them worry about it."

After he finished speaking, he said to the officials of the Ministry of Rites who came with him to issue the decree: "Fu Shou County Master is not in good health, and the following procedures are not needed. You adults, copy the content of the imperial decree into the library, and seal it. "

The officials of the Ministry of Rites had also heard about the fact that the youngest daughter of the Hua family was very weak, so they said goodbye immediately and walked neatly, and they could see that the prince's words had a lot of weight in front of them.

After letting the irrelevant palace attendants step down, the prince saw that the Hua family brothers and sisters didn't seem to have reacted, and smiled: "The Hua family's loyalty, the father and the emperor have always seen it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart."

Hua Changkong bowed and said, "Your Majesty Long En, the Weichen family is very grateful."

"Little girl," the prince raised his chin and looked at Hua Liuli, "are you still in a daze?"

"Please forgive me, Your Highness, the servant girl has not recovered from her joy." Hua Liuli said, "Especially the word "fushou and longevity" embodies His Majesty's good wishes and wishes for the servant girl, which makes the servant girl feel full of emotions. Grateful."

"The vulgar is elegant, and the solitary also thinks this title is very good." The prince was very satisfied with this.

Hua Liuli: "..."

Okay, you are the prince, whatever you say is right.

Hua Changkong silently looked at Yan Hualiu Li, and then slowly retracted his gaze. Fortunately, the younger sister will live in the palace recently, otherwise he might not be able to coax her.

"There is a banquet in the East Palace, are the two of you willing to admire your face?"

Hua Changkong lowered his eyelids and saw the little sister's fingers under the sleeves, slightly hooked.

"Thank you, Your Highness, that Wei Chen and his sister-in-law bothered me."

There are independent courtyards, horse farms, martial arts training grounds and even guards in the East Palace. It is also equipped with various officials. It is like a small palace in the palace.

Walking from the gate to the inner hall, Hua Liuli saw several officials of the Prince's Mansion carefully curry favor in front of the Prince. No wonder the princes all want to be crown princes, this feeling of superiority is too tempting.

"The county master, please use tea." A cup of steaming tea was placed by Hua Liuli's hand, she covered her mouth and coughed a few times: "Sorry, I shouldn't drink tea."

"Please forgive the county master, and the slaves will be replaced."

She stretched out her hand and gently held the palace maid's wrist. Her fingers were delicate and white, and they just held them vacantly, seemingly without the slightest strength: "Don't bother, I'm not thirsty."

The prince looked at the palace maid with a cold expression: "come here!"

"Please forgive me, Your Highness." The palace maid knelt down on the ground, and Hua Liuli, who put her hand on her body, was dragged down by her movements and hit her arm.

A hidden arrow fell out of the palace maid's sleeve.

Seeing that the traces were revealed, the palace maid's face turned ruthless, she got up and drew a soft sword from her waist and flew towards the prince.

Her eyes are cold, her movements are as fast as afterimages, she is the top killer. She also knew that as long as she made a move today, she would have no chance to live, but she had no regrets.

"Assassin!" When the guard saw the assassin heading straight for the prince's door, he wanted to fly up to block the sword for the prince. But the killer was moving too fast, and it was too late for them to stop her.

Stab it!

The sound of cloth being torn rang out in the hall. Hua Liuli, who was lying on the ground, pinched the rags in her hands, her face pale as she looked at the handsome assassin who flew out, but looked very embarrassed when he fell, and the hand holding the cloth was shaking. Like a little white flower swaying in the wind.

The secret to being a top killer is to be fast, but this advantage was broken by Hua Liuli. In order to get close to the prince, the killer disguised as a palace maid and lurked in the East Palace for nearly half a year. He finally got the chance to get close to the prince, but was ruined by a woman who didn't drink tea.

She looked at Hua Liuli angrily, wishing she could bite off her flesh in one bite.

"I said I didn't hold you on purpose, would you believe it?" Hua Liuli hurriedly threw away the piece of cloth in her hand, clutching her chest and panting desperately, and when Hua Changkong came over, she lay softly on the ground.

I was so tired that I didn't have time to eat the meal in the East Palace.

"Little sister, little sister." Hua Changkong hurriedly picked up his sister from the cold ground, and was about to shout, "Please ask the imperial physician," but the prince had already said, "Send the imperial physician over immediately."

The prince ignored the subdued assassin and walked quickly to Hua Changkong's side, but his eyes were on Hua Liuli: "Guhui will arrange for the best imperial doctor to treat the county master."

"Wei Chen has lost his temper, please forgive the prince." Hua Changkong said, "Sister She is timid and can't be frightened. I don't dare to bother you too much, in fact, this is all her old problem, and it will be better after a day or two of rest. "

"Send the county lord to the side hall to rest first." The prince looked at Hua Liuli's peacefully leaning against Hua Changkong's arms, "Send heavy troops to guard, and don't let any suspicious people get close to the county lord."

The Guards quickly took orders, and it was their dereliction of duty to have such an assassination incident in the East Palace. If something happened to the prince, they dared not imagine how much turmoil it would cause.

"Ji Yuansu, do you think you can sit back and relax if you escape today's catastrophe?"

After speaking, she bit the poison sac hidden in her teeth, waiting for death to come.

"King of England?" The prince looked at the killer who kept spitting blood. "Assassins can't do a good job, and you still want to do brain-intensive work to sow discord?"

"Who gave you the confidence, the master behind you?" The crown prince took the handkerchief handed over by the palace maid and slowly wiped his hands, "From childhood to adulthood, there have been many people who wanted to assassinate Gu, but someone as stupid as you would not many."

The killer widened his eyes and made a "hoho" sound in his mouth. She was not afraid of death, but she could not tolerate others denying her status in the killer world. This was her dignity!

"Do you think Guhui is curious about who is the ambassador behind you?" The prince wiped his fingers with a handkerchief, his expression calm, "What's the difference between a useless killer and a thing that just wants to get things done?"

The killer spit out his last mouthful of blood, staring wide-eyed and breathless.

I don't know if she died of anger or poison in the end.

The assassin was dead, and the prince's hands had been wiped clean. He turned and walked towards the side hall.

Hua Changkong put Hua Liuli on the bed and sighed softly. The capital is really a pool of muddy waters that can't be touched, and I don't know if the assassins deliberately chose to attack them when they were there, or it was just a coincidence.

The prince's favorite child is the prince. If the prince is assassinated in front of them, His Majesty will definitely take anger at the Hua family.

Disagreement between rulers and ministers is a taboo in the imperial court, but now some people are looking forward to chaos in the Jin Dynasty.

Whether Lin Huizhi was almost poisoned at the inn, or his sister almost drank poisoned wine at Lincui Palace, or today's assassination, as long as one succeeds, it will leave Dajin endless trouble.

Although several princes have their own ambitions, they should not do such things that will only make the enemy country happy.

So which shrewd small country around here did it

The author has something to say: Killer: Prince Dog, let me die!
