Chapter 116: Hu Hai’s eyes were red, his father was so cruel.
"Who are you? What are you going to do?!"
Zhao Gao had been left at the door by Feng Quji and was not brought in.
Xia Lin, who was following behind Feng Quji, stepped forward and spoke to Hu Hai.
"Mr. Eighteen, Lord Feng is here to pick a few people on the orders of His Majesty."
what?
Pick someone?
Or is it my father's order?
Hu Hai asked, "Why do you want to pick people?"
"Why did my father ask him to come to my palace to choose someone?"
Xia Lin said, "It seems that there are more people in the Eighteenth Prince's womb."
"Now that you are confined to the palace by His Majesty, you don't need too many people to serve you."
"Mr. Eighteen, please gather all the people in your palace."
"That will allow Master Feng to choose carefully."
"you!"
Hu Hai shouted with a dark face, "This is too much!"
"I'm going to complain to my father!"
"Let father have a good look at your eunuch's face!"
what?
Eunuch?
How dare Hu Hai, this scourge, call him a eunuch?
Or scold him in front of him?!
A fierce look flashed in Xia Lin's eyes!
The expression on his face was still hard to read.
He said, "Mr. Eighteen, have you forgotten? You are under house arrest now."
"But you can't leave the palace even half a step."
To put it nicely, it's house arrest, but in fact it means being locked up.
A disguised form of house arrest.
If Your Majesty's mind has not changed, then Hu Hai and his mother Hu Ji.
You will be trapped in this palace forever.
It was not until His Majesty passed away that a new decree was issued.
Or after the eldest prince Fusu succeeded to the throne, he would decide whether Hu Hai and Hu Ji would stay or go.
Hu Ji, who rushed over after hearing the news, immediately protected Hu Hai behind her.
Glaring at Xia Lin!
"What does this mean, Eunuch Xia?"
"Do you think my son is young and easy to bully? How dare you bring people to my house!"
what?
Bully?
He bullied Hu Hai? ?
"You're joking."
Xia Lin said to Hu Ji, "I am only following your majesty's orders."
"I just brought Lord Feng here to pick some people, but I dare not bully the Eighteenth Master."
Pick someone?
Hu Ji frowned, "Who should I choose?"
She just heard from the palace servants that Xia Lin brought people to her house.
She had a quarrel with her son.
She was worried that her son would be bullied and suffer, so she hurried over.
After hearing Xia Lin's words, Hu Ji noticed Feng Quji standing beside her.
"Lord Feng?"
Hu Ji asked, "I wonder who your majesty wants you to choose?"
Feng Quji said, "I am in need of some people to do the work."
"When His Majesty heard about it, he asked me to come to the palace of the Eighteenth Prince."
"Pick eighteen or nineteen people who can do the work."
what?
Pick eighteen or nineteen people who can work?
Or come to her son's palace to choose someone?
What is your majesty going to do?
Although Hu Ji was angry, she did not dare to disobey Ying Zheng's orders at this time.
I dare not challenge his patience.
She could only grit her teeth and take Hu Hai a step back.
"In that case, please do as you wish, Lord Feng."
Hu Hai looked up in disbelief, "Mother?"
This is someone from his palace.
How could I let an outsider pick it up? !
"Hai'er, be obedient."
Hu Ji half squatted down and touched Hu Hai's head.
"If the palace maids are gone, we can always get more."
"But if we make your father angry, we won't be able to leave this palace."
"Do you want to be trapped in this place forever?"
"No, I don't want to!"
Hu Hai shook his head, "Mother, I don't want to be locked up here!"
"I want to go out! I want to go out and fly a kite and catch butterflies!"
"I don't want to be locked up here forever!"
Hu Ji patiently soothed him, "Then just be good."
"Listen to your mother and don't make your father angry again, okay?"
When he thought of his father, Hu Hai's eyes turned red.
My father has such a cruel heart!
He just almost hit his father when he was chasing a butterfly.
His father locked him and his mother up here.
His father was so cruel to him!
Hu Hai nodded aggrievedly, "I understand, mother."
Xia Lin asked two palace servants to call all the people in Hu Hai's palace and gather them together.
Feng Quji looked at the palace maids standing in rows.
He pointed his fingers and picked out the palace servants who looked stronger in the crowd one by one.
Pity.
His Majesty only allowed him to pick eighteen.
Including Zhao Gao, there were nineteen people in total.
It’s a little less, but it’s better than nothing.
Taking these people to the mine later will also relieve some of the pressure.
After selecting the right people, Xia Lin wrote down the list.
Feng Quji bowed to Hu Ji and Hu Hai and said.
"The people have been chosen. I will take them away first."
What can Hu Ji say?
She could only nod, "Okay."
My heart is bleeding.
Looking at the palace maid who was chosen from the crowd.
Hu Ji felt panicked for a moment.
Then he forced himself to calm down.
Feng Quji, along with a group of palace servants and Zhao Gao who was at the door, walked out of the palace and headed straight for the mine.
After the work was done, Xia Lin went back to report to Ying Zheng.
Hu Ji comforted Hu Hai and sent him back to his room to rest.
He quickly returned to his room.
Standing in the room, she paced back and forth anxiously.
I really can’t figure it out.
Did Feng Quji pick that person away intentionally or did it happen unintentionally?
If it was intentional, was that what Your Majesty meant?
If it was Your Majesty who asked him to pick that person away, then what does Your Majesty know?
How much do you know?
...............
warehouse.
Ying Zheng took out the banknotes and papers he had searched from Zhao Gao from his pocket.
Place them separately in boxes.
Mixed in with the previous banknotes and papers.
He counted all the items in the warehouse again.
I found that some jewelry and jade were missing.
Those things were also stolen by Zhao Gao.
Ying Zheng summoned a Black Ice Guard with a dark face and gave him instructions.
"From now on, you will stay in the warehouse and guard the things in the warehouse for me."
"If anyone is found entering or leaving the warehouse without permission."
"Whether or not you have stolen anything from the storehouse, you must report it to me."
"If you dare to steal, I will beat you up first and then bring you to me."
"Don't be polite. As long as you survive and keep your breath alive, that's fine."
what?
Don’t be shy about it?
As long as you don't die and keep your breath, that's enough?
Your Majesty, do you mean to let him beat you as he pleases?
It doesn't matter if you get maimed or disabled, as long as you're still alive?
The Black Ice Guard responded loudly, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty!"
"I will definitely tidy up the storehouse for you!"
"I will show no mercy to those who dare to steal!"
Very good!
This is a human sandbag.
Still free!
I wonder who would be so foolish as to steal from your Majesty's storehouse?
It's a good opportunity for him to practice.
Twenty-five is inexplicably looking forward to something.
..........
Mountains.
On a weedy path not far from the intersection of the mountain road.
A group of three people were walking forward cautiously, taking one deep step and one shallow step, grabbing hold of the branches and grass.
