overbearing

Zhou Jiyao rushed over to take a look, and seeing that Dabao was in good health, he pulled him over and looked at him carefully before letting go of his troubled journey.Naturally, it was inevitable to ask him why he invited the imperial physician.

Zhou Jirong didn't want to hide too much from his elder brother, and sooner or later Duan Ningze couldn't hide it, so he faltered and fumbled his way through the spring and autumn, and finally promised Zhou Jiyao: "I really love you!" I didn't hit him much!" Thinking of Duan Ningze's swollen face like a pig's head, it was completely self-defeating to insist that he didn't hit anyone.He changed his words again: "I just slapped him. It's not because I slapped him like that!"

Zhou Jirong paused for a moment and then began to speak confidently: "When you wrote me to come to the capital, didn't you say that I could walk sideways in the capital at will! I haven't gone out and walked sideways, it's all because they came to the door Come on, I can't be bullied for nothing, can I?"

The emperor simply didn't know what to say about him, but he had actually said such a thing in order to coax him to come to the capital, so he had to be vague at this time, and went to visit Duan Ningze first.

I don't know if it's the imperial physician who really has a wonderful hand to rejuvenate or whether Duan's life should not die.Duan Ningze has already woken up, his face is very haggard, but his spirit is still good, but he confessed that he offended someone when he was doing something outside, and that's why he was retaliated by someone. He was injured before, and it really has nothing to do with Zhou Jirong.In fact, if possible, he really hoped to stay as far away from Zhou Jirong as possible.

The emperor had learned of the good deeds that his own great treasure had done before, so he could somewhat understand Duan Ningze's embarrassing mood at this time.After asking a few words about the injury, he found an excuse to send Zhou Jirong away, and he and Duan Ningze discussed something in private.

Zhou Jirong had to wait in the yard, feeling a little anxious in his heart. Wu Size said before that his elder brother planned to reuse Duan Ningze. Seeing how his elder brother and Duan's surname are clearly separated, this seems to be true, and I don't know. Will he ruin his brother's affairs because of himself?If he had known that he wouldn't be nagging with this Duan at that time, he would have let his sister go without any hassle. No, he shouldn't have let Duan Yunjia in curiously and meddling back then.

The emperor came out of the wing room and saw Zhou Jirong standing not far away and looking at him. He was always reluctant to beat Dabao and scold him. Seeing his cautious appearance, he could only sigh wryly and beckon him. Come here, the two go to the front hall.

After walking for a while, he slowly opened his mouth and said to Dabao: "...It's just a trivial matter, how can you beat people and kill people every now and then. You need to change your temper!"

Zhou Jirong thought that this must be what the surname Duan said, and it must have come out of his mouth, so naturally he would not cover it up for himself.Feeling angry, she frowned and said, "She spit on me! I just wore new clothes today!"

The emperor said: "That's not the end of the crime! Besides, it will be fine if you wash it."

Zhou Jirong continued to say indignantly: "What's the same, even after washing, I was spit on!"

The emperor couldn't resist his nonsense, and said with a smile: "When you were young, you were often seen rolling and having fun in the playground with horse manure. That was not too dirty. Why did you get more and more problems as you grew up?"

Zhou Jirong's shortcomings were exposed, so he had no choice but to keep his face sullen and silent.

The emperor looked at him, slowed down his voice and said: "Rong Rong, how about letting him stay with you for a few days? After all, he is doing things for me. I'm afraid those people are still hiding in the dark. ... There is no need How long, just wait until his injury improves and he is able to protect himself."

Zhou Jirong didn't have much ill feeling towards Duan Ningze, but his younger sister was really troublesome, and she didn't want to disobey his elder brother, so he evaded and said, "It's okay to let him stay for a few days, but his younger sister is very troublesome, if he comes here every day What should I do?"

The emperor remembered that he had not seen Duan Yunjia until now, and said with a headache: "You took Miss Duan there. I will take her back and give her to the concubine to discipline, so I won't bother you."

Duan Yunjia was quickly brought up, and there was inevitably another cry.The emperor may not be more patient than Zhou Jirong in dealing with such little girls, but he is very well-mannered and can't see it on the surface. He listened to her patiently and only said that he understood, and asked someone to take her to see Duan Ning. Duan Ningze, how to persuade and appease him will be left to Duan Ningze.

Bai Tingyu brought Duan Yunjia up just now, and stood by the side the whole time, the emperor felt that he looked familiar, so he couldn't help but look at him twice, and when he thought about it, he couldn't help being slightly surprised: "Are you the youngest son of General Bai Tingyu? His name is Bai Tingyu?"

Bai Tingyu was also a little nervous, stepped forward to salute and said: "I haven't met Bai Tingyu with the emperor, Bai Mingchuan is my father."

At this time, the emperor's expression was normal, he motioned him to be polite, then looked at him again, smiled slightly and said: "I haven't seen you in ten years, I didn't expect you to grow up so big, it turns out that you are a good-looking talent, you are really a young talent." I couldn't help but glance at Zhou Jirong again.

Because this Bai Tingyu was none other than the child who was bitten during the beating with Dabao that day.I still remember that when he left Hanzhou, Zhou Jirong was still thinking about a few so-called enemies every day, screaming and killing, as if they were utterly irreconcilable, with Dabao's dog temper, most of the grudges would last a lifetime, just look at his thoughts on cleaning up Liu Jingyu. One spot.I don't want Bai Tingyu to be his bodyguard now, it's really unexpected.But in the final analysis, what happened back then was the child's stubborn temper, and it was not really an unresolvable hatred, so it was not an incredible thing that the accident was an accident.

Zhou Jiyao just said it casually.

But Bai Tingyu, who was usually stable, was a little nervous at this moment, and seemed at a loss for the emperor's praise, and he forgot how to answer.

The emperor didn't know how he was usually, and he didn't care.But Zhou Jirong found it strange, took a look at Bai Tingyu, and hurriedly said to Zhou Jiyao: "Of course Xiaobai is a young talent. Among my guards, he is the most capable and considerate."

The emperor smiled, and said casually: "He has become like this, he must have caused a lot of trouble, but it's hard for you who are guards... How long have you been with Rong Rong?"

With cold sweat clenched in his palms, Bai Tingyu replied in a trembling voice, "...the last general has been with Lord Hou for eight years."

Seeing his pale face, Zhou Jirong felt as if he was being tortured, and thought that Xiaobai was usually a calm and steady person, but he didn't expect that he would be stupid when he saw the emperor, he was even worse than Fang Zhen.He couldn't bear it, and remembered that Fang Zhen had always wanted to pay his respects to Longyan, so he said to Bai Tingyu, "Go and call everyone, let my brother see him."

Bai Tingyu responded and bowed his head.

After a while, all the guards arrived together.It has been more than a month since Zhou Jirong came to Beijing, the emperor said earlier that he wanted to see the old man from Hanzhou, but everything was complicated, this was the first time he summoned his bodyguards.Except for a few replacements among these bodyguards, they were selected by Zhou Jirong himself, and most of them were arranged by Zhou Jiyao.Although we haven't seen each other for ten years, Zhou Jiyao can still recognize his name.It's just that when I saw him today, the old Hou Ye had become the Ninth Five-Year Supreme. Everyone was excited, and it brought back many memories of sharing the joys and sorrows in Hanzhou back then, which was embarrassing.

Fang Zhen was so excited that his face flushed, and he couldn't speak easily, as if he had a tongue out.

Seeing that his brother was very interested, Zhou Jirong thought they would have something to say when they recounted the past, so he ordered the cook to prepare some food and wine.Seeing that his elder brother couldn't take care of himself for a while, he slipped aside to look for Bai Tingyu, and asked him in a low voice, "Xiaobai, what's wrong with you?"

He has paid attention to it since just now, Bai Tingyu has been a little restless since being called by his brother's name, everyone else is looking forward, only he shrank back as unobtrusively as possible.Although he concealed it well on the surface, he just knew that Bai Tingyu was always a little nervous for some reason.

Bai Tingyu looked at him, shook his head and said in a low voice, "It's okay."

Zhou Jirong naturally didn't believe it, so he reached out and touched Bai Tingyu's hand, only to feel that his fingers were cold, but his palm was wet and cold, and he was sweating coldly. He was puzzled, but whispered: "You lied to me. You Are you afraid of my brother? What are you afraid of him for?"
