Before Ruhuahua could decide how to speak, Hua Yixi had already explained in a slow voice, "I know I should wait for reinforcements, but the situation was urgent at that time, so I didn't think so much, and it's not all right."

Hua Yizhao still had a cold face, "If something happens to you, what should I do?"

Hua Yixi was startled, then looked up at him slightly, "Are you angry?"

Hua Yichao stood upright in front of people like a green pine, but turned his head away, only showing half of his tense handsome face, "I don't."

Hua Yixi suddenly raised her hand and touched his head.

Hua Yizhao froze immediately.

"It's so awkward, and I didn't say I wouldn't stay. Find someone with quick legs and go to urge the doctor."

Hua Yixi shrugged her shoulders, turned her head to give instructions, and happened to see Zhong Liting who was ushered in, "Tsk, the guests are here."

guest?

In the small room behind the screen, Ru Huahua climbed up from the small couch with a thin blanket in her arms, poked her head slightly, and saw Zhong Liting who had just stepped into the main hall at a glance.

Facing Ruhuahua's pair of pitch-black eyes, Zhong Liting slightly hooked the corners of his lips.

The handles here are tighter than he imagined. There are soldiers in armor and long knives everywhere in the other courtyard.Those on patrol and standing guard are orderly, and this other courtyard seems to have become half a military camp.He stood here alone, still very calm.

Ru Huahua blinked her eyes, and was about to give him a brighter smile when she was separated from her sight by a slender figure from her back.

Like a flower: "..."

Hua Yichao yelled at the servant beside him, "Go, prepare water, and take someone to the bathroom to tidy up."

"Yes." The servant replied, stepped forward cautiously, and made a gesture of invitation, "Master Xu, Tang Chi is here, please come here."

When these words came out, several people in the hall were shocked.

Hua Yixi, who didn't know anything about it, was the first to speak out, looking at the boy, "What Mr. Xu?"

The boy was taken aback by the question, and didn't understand what went wrong, so he stumbled and said, "It's Mr. Xu Ci..."

After a moment of astonishment in Zhong Liting's heart, surprise and doubt appeared on his face very accurately, "Xu Ci...who is it?"

Hua Yichao rubbed his forehead with one hand, "I forgot about it."

Hua Yixi looked at him, "Why can't I understand, what kind of charades are you playing?"

"To put it simply, there is a person who looks like this, um... how should I put it, I think it looks like it was carved out of a mold, and its name is Xu Ci." Hua Yichao said simply, "Didn't you see However, Brother Gu knows someone, I brought him to the mansion to stay for a while, so the people in the mansion have seen him."

He was as scruples as a flowery boudoir, in front of everyone, he didn't mention the matter of the flowers, and put everything on Gu Zhiyan.

Hua Yixi: "Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"

Zhong Liting: "Is there such a coincidence?"

Hua Yichao explained in a good mood: "Let's face the public, there's nothing strange about bumping into faces, there's nothing special to mention."

Zhong Liting: "..."

Hua Yixi couldn't believe it, "If there is a chance, I would like to see if there is really such a resemblance."

"Then you shouldn't be able to see him anymore. People should take advantage of the chaos and run away," Hua Yichao clicked his tongue, shook his head and sighed, "It's a pity that I paid 5000 taels for nothing."

There was a depressing coughing sound from behind the screen, with a little hoarseness, "...cough cough...brother, you are accusing someone again, I told you before, I asked Mr. Xu to go to the border to find you .”

Her weak voice was overwhelmed by Hua Yichao, "I told you too, I didn't see anyone at all, who knows if I ran away... Also, you don't want your voice anymore?"

Ru Hua shut her mouth.

Anyway, she didn't believe that Xu Ci would sneak away. If Hua Yichao didn't see anyone, or Zhan Luan got separated, after all, those people in Nanfeng Hall didn't seem very reliable.

Hua Yixi, "It turned out to be an oolong, take Mr. Wei to change, don't admit your mistake again."

The servant responded, and led Zhong Liting away tremblingly.

After all the outsiders in the living room had left, Hua Yixi said helplessly, "Since A Zhao has already surrendered his heart, why should he always confront him, can't he speak well?"

Behind the screen, Ru Huahua's expression was startled, and she stopped coughing and raised her ears to eavesdrop.

Hua Yi raised her eyebrows slightly, "Did I say it?"

Hua Yixi, "If you didn't have this thought, you wouldn't easily bring someone into the mansion."

Hua Yichao's handsome eyes slightly closed, he was silent, he pulled a chair and sat down, and said in a low voice, "Then take it as my intention."

Indeed, now that Zhou Rao is gone, the Hua family is not only in an embarrassing situation, but also in embarrassing status.Even if he doesn't think about himself, he has to think about the rest of the family.

"Tell me, what are you thinking right now?"

Hua Yichao put his lips together and smiled, "Didn't you guess it all? After handing over the military power, only private soldiers are left. It seems good to be a free person with money and leisure... However, I haven't fully thought about these things."

It's not that he doesn't know how to assess the situation, and he has to admit defeat when his skills are inferior to others. He actually understood this truth since he was a child, and he just needs a gradual process.

If the newly recruited staff can defect to him temporarily, they can also defect to others.Now that it is a time of chaos, most people don't care who is above them. They are willing to listen to whoever can feed them, clothe them, and get their military pay on time.

Zhong Liting was right that day.It is true that he is in urgent need of food, and temporarily bringing people to farm the fields will not solve any major problems. He has long since dispatched the excessive troops in his hand. He has to consider the food and clothing expenses of so many people every day, and also guard against them Selfishness and riots are too much energy.Clearing out this group of people actually lightened the burden on him.

What's more, the centipede is dead but not stiff. The Hua family has a rich information network and many ways to make money. It is not a problem for Ji Liuyong to retreat, but the flower at home will be seduced by someone, and eight horses will not be able to bring it back. Also have to think more.

Hua Yixi straightened up suddenly, "Someone is here."

Hua Yizhao looked over, and saw that Yao Xiang and Yao Yan had entered the hall with a few maids carrying hot water and clothes in their hands, bowing their heads and leading others to say hello.

Hua Yizhao didn't say any more, and waved his hands, "You girls are in the room, go in."

After doing everything right inside, the government doctor finally trotted in with the medicine box on his back.

Hua Yizhao frowned, "Why so slow?"

The government doctor put down the medicine box panting, "Master Hou, calm down, the old man heard that the third girl fell into the water, and he was busy getting people to find fresh bamboo to burn bamboo to drain, so he went to take a look at it because he was afraid that they might not make it right. Time wasted."

After finishing speaking, a young servant came forward with a bowl filled with bamboo water, and the doctor took it and held it with both hands, "I heard that the third girl is coughing and wheezing, she must have choked on the sewage, let the third girl drink this bowl of medicine first." drank."

The servant girl stepped forward to take the bowl, bypassed the screen and sent it in.

Ruhuahua coughed so badly that she felt uncomfortable, her throat was dry and tight, she just wanted to quickly suppress the uncomfortable feeling, she took the bowl in a daze, and drank it down in one gulp.

The bottom of the bowl was empty, and suddenly she couldn't stop coughing violently.Seeing this, Yao Xiang hurriedly brought the washbasin to the side of Ru Hua Hua, gently stroking her back.

Ruhuahua's forehead and cheeks were covered with cold sweat, her knuckles gripped the edge of the basin, and the light brown concoction she spit out was mixed with traces of blood, scaring the medicinal fragrance beside her so much that she almost didn't hold the basin.

"Blood... the girl is coughing up blood..."
