After all, he was busy working so late last night, squinting his eyes and contemplating the unfamiliar embroidery for a long time. Zhao Ruhui fell asleep dizzy and didn't wake up refreshed the next day.

But his biological clock is around the time of the hour, and he has something on his mind and doesn't feel like closing his eyes and sleeping late. After staring blankly at the ceiling of the roof for a while, he finally got up slowly and got dressed.

Zhao Ruhui is not used to having too many people take care of dressing and going to bed, but as a person of considerable status, he will not do everything by himself. The eldest princess assigned them two servants outside this room. See Zhao Ruhui get up So he graciously brought water in for him.

Drenching the noodles with a handful of water finally dispelled a lot of dizziness.This young man was also quite clever, seeing Zhao Ruhui finished washing, he smiled and asked him for his opinion.

"Young master, do you want to eat breakfast inside the room, or outside the yard?"

"Just put it in the yard."

Compared with the inside of the house, the outside air is naturally better. There are many tall trees planted around the yard, and the dense tree branches leave a natural skylight inside the house, although there will be humidity in winter It feels cold, but at least in summer, it looks like a good place to escape the heat.Thinking about the design of this house, it is for the owner to live in for a short time in summer.

But now that this room is occupied by Zhao Ruhui, it is natural to appreciate the ingenious design.He went out and sat down on the stone chair outside. The servant was very fast, and he returned with the food box in a short while.Eight-treasure lotus seed porridge, three small buns, emerald swallow dumplings, crab roe dumplings, and the glutinous rice chicken with lotus leaf that He Zhizhou talked about two days ago are also among them. The small stone tables are packed to the brim.

Just as Zhao Ruhui took a bite of a sandwich, he happened to see He Zhizhou walking in with a sword in hand. Looking at his flushed face and fine beads of sweat on his forehead, he knew that he must have just returned from sword practice.

Zhao Ruhui touched his chest. The handkerchief that he had worked so hard on last night was still neatly folded. After thinking about it, he simply waved at He Zhizhou, called him over, and then pointed to the handkerchief on the table. Early, "Have you eaten breakfast? Together?"

In the face of Zhao Ruhui's question, although He Zhizhou did not directly refuse, he still replied euphemistically, "Not yet, but the subordinate is sweating all over, so let's wash it before using it."

When practicing martial arts and swordsmanship, it takes an hour to start. Now it's hot and my clothes are wet.But Zhao Ruhui obviously didn't mind, he grabbed the corner of He Zhizhou's sleeve with two fingers, and pulled the person towards him in a gesture.

"Sit down, I don't dislike you. Boil water for a bath, it should be cold by the time you finish it."

...Since Zhao Ruhui said so himself, He Zhizhou certainly had nothing to refuse. The servant next to him added a pair of bowls and chopsticks to him, so he moved the chopsticks directly.

If the original breakfasts were a bit too much, then when the two big men shared the food, it would be enough for them to eat seventy percent full.

The servant next to him looked at the gradually empty plate and naturally asked them if they needed more food. Zhao Ruhui raised his eyes and glanced at He Zhizhou. After getting a negative answer, he waved his hand, "No, it's just right, you Take everything away."

"Excuse me, bring another bucket of water here." He Zhizhou was very polite.

Zhao Ruhui looked very interested in the sword in his hand, "It's been a long time since Gu Ye did it. Next time, if there is a chance, I'd better find a time to discuss it with Zhizhou."

"Okay." He Zhizhou agreed very readily.

The two of them chatted about martial arts, most of them asked He Zhizhou if he had any customary weapons, what kind of swords he liked, and Zhao Ruhui showed off his collection to him and agreed with him He decided to take He Zhizhou to see his treasure house when he returned to the palace next time.

As for these, He Zhizhou naturally agreed to them one by one.

"Hey, didn't Gu say yesterday that he wanted to embroider a purse for Zhizhou?"

The conversation was getting better, but He Zhizhou didn't expect that he would take the initiative to bring up this matter. He was a little surprised for a while, wondering whether Zhao Ruhui was "sober", or if he retreated and felt embarrassed to argue with him.However, He Zhizhou was mostly looking at jokes after all, so he looked at Zhao Ruhui with a puzzled look on purpose.

"Your Majesty, tell me."

Zhao Ruhui couldn't see what he meant, except for the helpless expression on his face, he opened his mouth openly, "The purse is still in the process of being made, and I'm here today to prepay a deposit for Chief He and show off the lonely one. craft."

Zhao Ruhui said so, stretched out his hand and took He Zhizhou's right hand, and then took out the plain white silk from his arms, put it in his palm, and closed his palm again.

"Just be careful, Chief He will look at it when you go back to the room, and remember to keep it safe, otherwise I will be heartbroken." Zhao Ruhui showed a half-smile, and wrapped his hands around He Zhizhou, warning Squeezed his wrist.

The expression on He Zhizhou's face became rich in an instant, Zhao Ruhui wanted to pull his hand, but Zhao Ruhui's strength was really strong, and the hot and dry warmth between the contact made his already ruddy face even more blush.

"Okay, I see." Seeing that Zhao Ruhui would not give up if he didn't answer, He Zhizhou had no choice but to reply in a low and hasty manner.

Just at this time, the sound of the butler's footsteps came from outside the yard, He Zhizhou froze and twitched his hands again, this time he finally managed to shrink back.

It was obvious that Zhao Ruhui's performance just now was a little too much. He Zhizhou glanced at Zhao Ruhui with some annoyance, but he could see half of the butler's body, so he turned around and entered the room without saying anything.

"Young master, His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess said that she has something to discuss with you, so please hurry over there." The butler behind trotted over.

Zhao Ruhui was still thinking about He Zhizhou's expression when he saw the handkerchief with great interest, and he just gave a casual "hmm" when he heard this.

Although the people in the eldest princess's mansion guessed that Zhao Ruhui's identity should be unusual, they obviously didn't realize that Zhao Ruhui was the emperor. Everything was still based on the eldest princess. Looking at Zhao Ruhui's appearance of not caring much, I still couldn't help it Then he said, "Looking at the expression of His Royal Highness the eldest princess, it should be an important matter, son, you should hurry up."

This is also the housekeeper's loyalty, Zhao Ruhui didn't mean to be impatient, and left directly after answering.

And when he saw the eldest princess again, it proved that what the housekeeper said was not a lie. The eldest princess frowned, and her face looked serious at the moment.

"Sister, what's the matter, did you encounter something bothering me?" Zhao Ruhui closed the door of the study, sat next to the eldest princess, and smiled at her.

The eldest princess didn't talk nonsense with this younger brother who was smiling all day long and didn't know what he was thinking, so she went straight to the point, "Do you still remember the big man who was designed to capture in my mansion?"

Zhao Ruhui nodded, indicating that he did not forget.

The eldest princess handed him a letter in her hand, Zhao Ruhui took it, and read it carefully word by word.

The letter was not long, it was just a short piece of paper, but Zhao Ruhui read it very slowly, and his expression was like that of a long princess, the more he looked at it, the more dignified he was, and when he saw the end, his sword eyebrows were already frowning up.

"Gu poison?"

He said these two words lightly and shallowly, but it was definitely not a casual tone, but with real scrutiny and dignity.

Seeing that Zhao Ruhui had finished reading it, the eldest princess took the letter back into her hand, clamped the letter with her slender middle index finger, and placed it on the burning candle beside her.

Tongues of flames swept up quickly, and the letter was turned into ashes when it was put down. The moment it was let go, the entire letter was completely burned by the flames, leaving only light fly ash.

"It's Gu poison. At the beginning, I had ordered him to prevent him from committing suicide, but he still died without warning, and turned into blood in an instant. Those filthy blood stains corroded the flowers and plants on the ground. New flowers and plants grew. I felt very strange that day, collected some blood left by him with a special jade bottle, and sent people out to investigate—and the result, as you can see.”

Zhao Ruhui lowered his head and licked his nails. Although his expression was still careless, everyone knew that he didn't really care at all.

"Back then, when the Taizu was in power, Gu poison was strictly banned... Now Daqian, not to mention Gu masters who use poison so hard, even those old people who are very old, there are not many people who know about these evil sects. something."

——Southern Xinjiang.

Following Zhao Ruhui's words, the two siblings looked at each other, knowing what the other was thinking.

In the end, it was Zhao Ruhui who was the first to sneer, shook his head and sighed, "At first, I thought they were just a few little mice who didn't dare to show their faces, but now that they are caught more and more, why do they give away litter after litter?"

The eldest princess also sneered, "Small country, when I step through his city with a big iron cavalry, I will know what the fear of a hundred years ago is like."

Gu poison is a very evil thing. It is highly poisonous and can even manipulate the human body. If it is not checked, it will easily cause irreparable losses. The reason why Taizu would not hesitate to kill the poison , precisely because he was afraid of the weirdness of this thing.And the eldest princess is obviously a violent temper, looking at the coldness in the corner of her eyes, it is obvious that she is really angry.

Although Zhao Ruhui was also cold, but obviously, he had to think more.Thinking of the person behind the scenes in Jingzhong who hadn't been caught yet, he also slowly stood up from his seat.

"If you want to fight against the outside world, you must first settle down inside. If the scourge in Beijing is not eliminated, you will feel uneasy in your heart. Before, I thought about taking a long line to catch big fish, but according to the current situation, I really have to use strong medicine."

"Sister, Gu will leave for Beijing tomorrow."
