"In two days, there will be chaos in Xing'an. The Dudu's Mansion must make proper arrangements. All the people in Wuyuan will stay in the Dudu's Mansion."

Zheng Rong controls the personal soldiers of Prince Yu's mansion, and at the same time, there is the shadow guard battalion who only obeys Liu Yu's orders... The people Prince Yu refers to are the elites trained in the shadow guard battalion.

Jiang Zhi heard the words and looked at Zheng Rong, but found that he did not express any objection.

He could only open his mouth and said: "Your Highness, when the Miao family smelted iron privately for a long time, they must have a large number of private soldiers. Although Your Majesty has sent troops to the north, we are also prepared, but when chaos arises, we may not be able to cover everything. , whether you should keep people from Wuyuan by your side, the subordinates feel that it needs to be discussed..."

Although he didn't say the word "inappropriate", the meaning he expressed was very clear.

As an official of King Yu, in Jiang Zhi's heart, Liu Yu is always the most important.Although he understands that His Royal Highness wants Zheng Rong's elites to protect Little Doctor Jian, he cannot completely obey His Highness's orders like Zheng Rong. As an official of Prince Yu, Jiang Zhi has his own responsibilities.

He thought for a while, and continued to persuade: "If His Highness tells Little Doctor Jian about this arrangement, I believe he may have different opinions."

Based on Jiang Zhi's understanding of Xiaonian, the other party would never allow Liu Yu to disregard his own safety.

Liu Yu is the closest to Xiaonian and knows him best. He doesn't doubt Jiang Zhi's hypothesis. On the contrary, he knows that this may be the real situation.

He thought for a while, and finally said: "Wu Yuan stays in the Dudu's Mansion."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief—His Royal Highness wanted Zheng Rong to stay in the Dudu Mansion because he wanted to bring some hidden guards by his side.

After they discussed some more things, Jiang Zhi and Zheng Rong withdrew, allowing Prince Yu to enter the house to rest.

Xiaonian, who took the little tiger cub back to the bedroom first, didn't listen to these serious topics they said, but guessed that Chang Shi must have something important to discuss with Liu Yu.

But this is not something to consider right now, Xiaonian carried the little ones to the clean room, prepared to wash them, and then let them sleep.

There was already water prepared by Fudong in the room, which happened to be warm at the moment, and it was best used to bathe the cub.

The little guy played in the yard during the day, and he would always get some dust and dirt on his body, but it wasn't too dirty, so he usually just wiped it with a damp cotton cloth.

But today no one is controlling them, the little tiger cubs are playing wildly, anyway, if the house is not demolished, the elder brother will not be angry, and they don't know where they rolled, and their white fluff has become a little gray.

They were carried into the wooden basin by the elder brother, and because they hadn't finished playing just now, they raised their little paws and stomped on them excitedly, and some water splashed quickly on the water surface, and the water droplets sprinkled on the desk, getting everywhere.

The little tiger cub froze immediately, its body and head motionless, but its eyes turned secretly, aiming at Xiaonian, as if to see if he saw it.

In fact, Xiaonian didn't pay attention when they splashed out of the water, because he was making preparations at that time.

Because he had to go to Liu Kui's place to change his dressing during the day, so Xiaonian was wearing a shirt with narrow sleeves to facilitate his work.Now he can move freely, just roll up his sleeves.

The bath beans in the small box on the side are specially made for little ones. Although they are specially made, they are not rare or expensive.

At this time, the bath beans made by the imperial court or those used by dignitaries were very particular, and a lot of things were added besides the basic raw materials.

Some prescriptions are even exaggerated to the extreme, and there is a rumor that it is very luxurious. You need to take cloves, aloes, green woods, peach blossoms, stalactite powder, pearls, jade chips, Shushui flowers, and papaya flowers. Four liang each of lotus flower, plum flower, cherry flower, white hollyhock flower, and inula flower, one baht of musk, a total of seventeen flavors, pounded various flowers, real pearls, and jade chips to make powder, then combined with soybean powder, and grinded a thousand times , just got it.

Not to mention that the combination of these flavors can't be tolerated by the little tiger cub, even the compound essential oil formulated by Xiaonian is not so "complex". Doctor Jian was dumbfounded after seeing the real thing.

No other spices were added to the bath beans for the cubs, but they were still washed clean.

Xiaonian rolled up his sleeves to take the bath beans, and seeing the cute little tiger cub and the water splashing out of the basin, he calmly tapped the little tiger cub's forehead with his fingers to show that he knew it well. , but did not blame them.

The little tiger cub raised its head to sniff Xiaonian's fingers, and rubbed Fenfen's little nose against him, making Xiaonian stop keeping a stern face, and even smiled softly.

After wiping the bath beans, Xiaonian mainly cleaned them of the dirt that fell on their abdomen and legs.With one hand he supported Cub Cub's back, while with the other hand he circled Cub Cub's stomach. The little guy immediately turned on the "chattering" mode, and he didn't know what he was moaning all the time.

Because this is Zai Zai's habit when taking a bath, Xiaonian is not surprised, and occasionally said something to it: "Baby lift one leg... yes... come on, lift the other... Zai Zai is so good!"

The two cubs stood in the water, because of their small and stocky stature, the water level that originally only reached below their bellies rose to cover their bellies.

Although the water surface is not up to the neck, they still hold their heads up and look a little proud.

Xiaonian couldn't help smiling as he watched, he was already familiar with bathing the cubs, and he quickly finished all the work, wrapping the cubs in cotton cloth and drying them.

Let them "dry" by themselves first, then wrap them in a cotton cloth to wipe the little ones.

Seeing that the fluff on the little tiger cubs was dried quickly, Xiaonian helped them smooth out the fluff again, and said while trimming: "It's finished, the baby is washed deliciously." Then he pretended to bury his face in the obedient fluff , rubbed.

The little guy immediately became lively after taking a bath and came out of the basin. At first, he almost ran down under the cotton cloth, but was caught by Xiaonian.Feeling her brother rubbing against her body, she obediently twisted excitedly, and touched Xiaonian's face with her little paw.

At this moment, Prince Yu walked into the clean room, and he walked towards Xiaonian and the others, as if to come in to see why they hadn't come out.

Xiaonian quickly took the tiger cubs with him to carry them out, and asked Liu Yu what happened while walking.

After hearing the other party's description, Xiaonian shook his head: "I never thought the Miao family would be so bold." Even daring to touch iron, this ambition is too big...

Thinking that the Jian family is still working hard for a medicinal material business, the aristocratic families in Xing'an can consider rebelling. It really makes people lament the obvious "gap between rich and poor".

People's desires are unlimited, when you give a person excessive pampering, it will arouse his more desires.

Liu Xuan and Miao's current ambitions, to a certain extent, can actually be said to have been raised by Prince Yu.

Thinking of this, Xiaonian decided that when the little tiger cub grows up and regains its human form, he must be strict with Guaiguai and Cub, at least teach them how to establish correct ideals, how to control their unrealistic desires, and how to control their unrealistic desires. , how to get what you want in the right way and through hard work.

"Wooooow~" At this moment, he obediently leaned his little head on Xiaonian's chest, raised his head and called out to him, his eyes were bright like glass.

Xiaonian rubbed his chin on the top of its head, and said with a smile, "Just being coquettish is not enough."

Sitting next to him and watching the little boy occupy Xiaonian's arms, Prince Yu didn't think so.

——The little brat who can act like a baby and treats his little doctor anytime, anywhere is obviously the best life!

"When the imperial doctor and the angel came to Xing'an, my cousin and I would not go to Prince Yu's mansion, lest the internal officials around His Majesty know me and go back and say something when they see me."

Now Xiaonian also knows the true attitude of Emperor Jizhou towards Prince Yu, all the things the other party has done and said in the past can easily create suspicion and estrangement between Xiaonian and Liu Yu, making it hard to guard against.

If they hadn't already had a tacit understanding and trust, I'm afraid Liu Yu and him would not be what they are now.

After leaving Tianjing, although they had to be separated from their grandfather, it was a good thing for them to leave the emperor who smiled gently but didn't know what was going on in his heart.

Back then, Xiaonian was a little surprised when he knew that Liu Yu's series of actions in the northern border were not done by himself, but by Prince Yu's Mansion and the emperor "joining forces".

He didn't expect that the brothers who were at odds with each other would be able to do things together calmly one day.

Thinking about it later, perhaps for the two most honorable brothers in the world, the person lurking in the northern border and secretly creating turmoil is indeed their common enemy, and it is logical to join forces at this time.

Doctor Jian just hoped that the emperor of Jizhou would not "turn his face and be ruthless" too soon.

……

Two days later, under the eager anticipation of many people, the angel and imperial doctor from the capital finally arrived in Xing'an City, and were warmly welcomed by Liu Xuan, the concubine son of Prince Yu.

Naturally, only Prince Yu and the masters of Prince Yu's mansion were the ones who were qualified to see the court.

The Emperor of Jizhou was sympathetic to Prince Yu and Liu Xuan's hard work in frightening the demons to maintain the stability of the northern border. He also expressed condolences to Prince Yu who was sent to the northern border, so he first asked the messenger to bring some "gifts".

But what Liu Xuan was eagerly looking forward to was not such an innocuous reward. In fact, he didn't really settle down until he saw the imperial doctor surnamed Jiang from the Imperial Hospital.

"Your Majesty heard that the Eldest Prince was deeply saddened by the death of Prince Yu, and he had been ill for a while. He expressed his concern, and ordered me to send Imperial Doctor Jiang to Xing'an to see the Eldest Prince's pulse... If you can bring good news back to Tianjing this time. , I think His Majesty can feel at ease."

When hearing the words of the internal officials next to Emperor Jizhou, all the people present had one sentence in their hearts: It is finally here!

Their eyes unconsciously turned to the eldest son Liu Kui, who had obviously been ill for a long time, but was now holding on to receive the order.

I saw this royal child who had just reached the weak crown knelt and worshiped in the northwest direction, that is, in the direction of Tianjing: "Thank you Lord Long En, long live my emperor."

There was no expression on his slightly pale face, and his back, which was trying to stop, gave people a sense of tragedy.

From the face of the eldest son, there is really no difference. People can't help but wonder why he hides in the house and is afraid of seeing Prince Yu.

But since Liu Kui has been ill, and always concealed and evasive in the face of "concern" and inquiries, there must be some serious hidden disease, which is shady, so Liu Xuan is not worried.

He glanced at his nephew who was kneeling on the ground, and felt pleased.

——This time, let's see how you, who have been rejected by the emperor, can still be the eldest son of Prince Yu's mansion!

Thinking about his brother who was born noble, Liu Xuan felt that after so many years of grievances, he could finally get his money back with interest.

When the imperial doctor Jiang found out about Liu Kui's serious illness, the court gave up on Liu Kui and made him Liu Xuan the county king. He would let the eldest son have a taste of what it's like to be in a real lingering sick bed and unbearable pain.

If at any time you don't want to see this person again, then let Liu Kui go directly to accompany the eldest son who died early, so that this "noble" blood can be reunited!

The second concubine, Miao, was also quite happy at the moment. She walked to Liu Kui's side and gestured to help him: "Your Majesty cares about Kui'er so much, you should remember it in your heart. Let the imperial doctor Jiang rest for a few days before helping Kui'er." Get a doctor."

What the internal officer said was pulse diagnosis, but she said it was a disease diagnosis, and she immediately confirmed the eldest son's "illness", attracting Liu Kui to look at her.

Before Mrs. Miao could continue to speak, Imperial Physician Jiang said, "Your Majesty ordered you to check the eldest son's pulse as soon as he arrives in Xing'an, so that you can send a message back to Tianjing as soon as possible, and ask the eldest son to take you to the room to have a look."

Liu Xuan was unhappy when he heard Princess Miao say that he would let Imperial Doctor Jiang rest for a few days before seeing Liu Kui, but he also knew that it was just a polite remark, and it was enough respect for them to let them rest for a night .

Who knew that this imperial doctor Jiang would be so upright, bluntly saying that he was responsible for the emperor's life, so it's no wonder that they are not showing affection.

"That's good, so we can feel at ease sooner." Seeing that Imperial Physician Jiang insisted and the internal officials next to her didn't object, she stopped talking.

Accompanied by her mother, Wang Shi, Liu Kui took Imperial Doctor Jiang and his party to her Nanyuan.

Prince Yu didn't like the eldest son before, so he naturally wanted to know whether he was really sick or rude, but out of concern, Princess Ji and her uncle Liu Xuan also accompanied him.

And while they were waiting for Imperial Doctor Jiang to give Liu Kui a pulse, some people didn't know that something important was happening quietly in Chunhe, Hemu, Songnan and other places.

……

That night, Prince Yu didn't go back to Du Du's mansion, Xiaonian and the little tiger cubs had dinner together, and then accompanied them to climb trees in the yard.

Because his brother was by his side, the little guy crawled very quickly, and soon climbed to the bottom branch. Standing on it, he looked at Xiaonian, as if he had some expectations.

As expected, Little Doctor Jian did not disappoint the little ones, and immediately praised him, and then turned around and said to Mr. Zheng who was by his side: "Brother Wu Yuan, look at how good we are, how good we are!"

Both his tone and demeanor were full of pride, as if it wasn't the little tiger cub that climbed up, but Xiaonian himself.

Zheng Rong looked at Little Doctor Jian showing off his child expressionlessly, and even nodded in agreement. If Jiang Changshi saw it, he might be offended.

Just like His Royal Highness Prince Yu, Mr. Zheng did not easily agree or go along with others. For Jiang Changshi, getting Zheng Wuyuan to nod was even more difficult than the imperial examination.

Xiaonian could see Zheng Rong's soul, the handsome and heroic Gyrfalcon was standing on the branch of the locust tree, guarding next to the little tiger cub.

It looked a little more vigilant than usual, and its sharp eyes kept scanning the surroundings, which showed how vigilant its owner was hiding behind his seemingly calm expression at the moment.

The royal family can hide their souls, and ordinary people can too, but Zheng Rong didn't hide the gyrfalcon in front of Xiaonian.

He didn't know that Xiaonian was the returning soul of his ancestors and could see other people's souls, but Xiaonian knew that this big brother Wuyuan had sincere trust and closeness to him, so he didn't hold back.

Xiaonian knew that they were going to make a big deal today, and seeing Zheng Rong's soul behave like this, he couldn't help becoming a little nervous.

He asked in a low voice, "I don't know what's going on with Your Highness?" He also didn't know if the imperial physician had discovered Liu Kui's wound. Although they discussed their words, they didn't know whether Liu Kui's words could convince the imperial physician.

For Zheng Rong, who is used to observing people's every move, it is not difficult to see Xiaonian's nervousness.

It's just that he didn't expect that he hid his guard so well and was discovered by Doctor Jian. In order to appease Xiaonian, he could only reply: "Don't worry, Doctor Jian, Your Highness is fully prepared and there will be no danger."

Xiaonian saw Zheng Rong's determination and knew that the other party and Liu Yu would not deceive him, so he said, "That's good... I just hope His Highness can come back sooner." Only in this way can he really feel relieved.

"If there is any situation in Prince Yu's mansion, the subordinate will report it immediately. If His Highness returns, we will also get the news immediately."

"Brother Lao Wuyuan..." Xiaonian knew that it was not easy for Zheng Rong to say so many things, and also understood that the other party was not only worried about Liu Yu, but also worried about his nervousness, so he smiled at him and tried to Show yourself relaxed.

The little tiger cub stayed on the treetop for a while, and found that his brother was boasting and talking to Zheng Zheng next to him, so he immediately paid attention.

In fact, among so many people, their feelings for Zheng Rong are the most complicated.

Zheng Rong's personality is like a "big guy", with a straight face all day long, and he looks not festive at all (fog), which makes the little tiger cubs a little dislike to watch, but he is the most obedient to them among the people around him .

This kind of contradictory mentality made the little tiger cubs unable to be as relaxed and unscrupulous towards Zheng Rong as they were towards Jiang Changshi.

But now Zheng Zheng is robbing his brother's attention with them, which makes Tiger unacceptable, and the little guys immediately screamed.

The cry of the little tiger cub caught Xiaonian's attention. He looked up and saw that the little tiger cub had already returned to the place where the branches and the trunk connected, and seemed to be planning to return to the ground.

Climbing up a tree was easy but getting down was difficult. Xiaonian couldn't be distracted any longer. He concentrated on watching the cubs move down little by little, for fear that they might accidentally loosen their paws.

When the little ones landed on the ground, Xiaonian hugged them and asked, "Are we still playing outside? Or go back inside."

For Xiaonian and even the entire Northern Territory, today was an uneven day, and he was worried about Liu Yu, and he couldn't calm down, fearing that he would be negligent, so he wanted to bring Guaiguai and Zaizai into the house.

The little tiger cub regained his brother's attention, and felt that it was the same wherever he went to play, so he nestled into Xiaonian's arms, very obedient and obedient, and let him arrange.

So Xiaonian carried them back to the bedroom. When he entered the room, he turned his head and looked in the direction of Prince Yu's mansion. Through the high wall, he couldn't see anything clearly except Zheng Rong's. The gyrfalcon circled in the air for a moment.

Xiaonian looked back, stepped over the threshold, and waited for Liu Yu to come back.

However, until the next morning, Xiaonian did not wait for Prince Yu, and he also knew what happened in Prince Yu's mansion yesterday.

Doctor Jiang from the Imperial Hospital in Beijing had checked Liu Kui's pulse, and checked every visible part of his body during the consultation.

But to their surprise, the imperial doctor did not check carefully, so no traces of being touched by the doctor were found on Liu Kui's body.

It was only later that Xiaonian found out that this trick was a complete "following the process". Although this doctor Jiang Yu was a rare general practitioner, he was the most tactful person, and he had a lot of success in the Tai Hospital.

Such a smart person will naturally know what to do when he sees His Majesty and listens to Liu Xin's words.

Emperor Jizhou didn't worry about whether Liu Kui was suffering from a hidden disease at all. As long as the northern border was still under his control, he would be fine...

So, before Liu Xuan and his successor concubine Miao could question Jiang's doctor's judgment, Prince Yu's mansion was besieged by the court's troops.

During this period of time, too much attention was focused on Liu Kui's affairs. Liu Xuan, who "misunderstood" the meaning of Emperor Jizhou and Prince Yu, was not aware of the untraceable changes around him, and did not have time to make any resistance. Can only be caught without a fight.

Afterwards, countless evidences emerged, making Liu Xuan, who was still trying to quibble, completely indisputable. Only then did he realize that the dream that the Emperor of Jizhou asked him to weave was actually a nightmare. possibility of survival.

However, Liu Xuan and several private soldiers raised by aristocratic families in the northern region were wiped out by the Liyang army who went north and the Changbai army who was also transferred to Xing'an before they could take up their weapons and put on their armor.

Even the iron smelting fields and salt fields they guarded were also controlled by the imperial court.

Soon, Liu Xuan, the concubine of Prince Yu's mansion, the concubine Miao, and related people were escorted to Beijing, while Prince Yu continued to stay in the north to arrest their remaining party.

The once mighty Miao family who ruled the north, and the northern families attached to Liu Xuan and the Miao family also collapsed, paying a price for their own ambition and greed.

Although the imperial court's suppression of the conspiring rebels went very smoothly, the northern border was still shaken by this series of actions.

In addition to the families and forces that have some connections with those aristocratic families who are worried about being implicated, there are also people who have little connection with the Miao family who are beating their feet and chests, tossing and turning.

"Eldest Young Master has no serious illness." At this moment, in a courtyard in Xing'an County, a middle-aged man said in surprise after hearing the news: "Miao family misled me!"
