43. Meet Hu Dan

When night fell, Shi Yuanji stayed in the room but tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. He simply took out the red jade Sumeru seat from the human seed bag and continued to practice. His chaotic thoughts gradually stabilized under the support of Sumeru, and he finally cleared his mind.

Zhang Donglou said that his teacher was Hu Dan, the prime minister of the dynasty, so when he wrote this explanation, he would definitely inform Hu Dan. In any case, his strength is undoubted, it depends on whether Hu Dan will consider himself. ”

It still depends on luck, Shi Yuanji sighed in his heart.

Just as Shi Yuanji was practicing, a soft noise outside the window alarmed him. He pulled out a feather cone and asked in a deep voice, "Who is outside?"

"You'll know when you come out!" a muffled voice sounded outside the window. Shi Yuanji threw out the feather cone and followed the sound.

The feather cone pierced through the window paper, and an exclamation immediately sounded outside the window. Shi Yuanji took out four more feather cones and threw them all, these feather cones drilled through the window like a harrier eagle, and a clanging sound like striking iron suddenly sounded outside the window.

"The other party brought weapons? Shi Yuanji leisurely opened the window and looked at the other party.

In the light of the red and blue February, a sturdy man armed with a three-foot sword struggled to block the feather cone on the roof. Five feather cones fluttered around, attacking his back and leaving him scrambling.

The long sword collided with the feather cone, and there were bursts of sparks and sonorous sounds, and cold sweat broke out on the man's face, and he saw Shi Yuanji climb out of the window and step on the tiles and walk slowly towards him, and his heart became more and more anxious.

"Stop, I have no ill will!" he hurriedly shouted, but the feather cone was still around him, and in a few moments it was against his neck.

"Who are you, why are you here?" Shi Yuanji said gloomily as he looked at the man who didn't dare to move.

"I am the son of the prime minister of the dynasty, Hu Fashun, you let me go. ”

"Answer the second question I just asked, immediately, immediately!" Shi Yuanji did not mean to remove the Kataha cone in the slightest.

The man's eyes rolled and he said, "My father asked me to come to you, he has something to ask you." ”

"Oh?" Shi Yuanji looked him up and down, still not believing him in his heart.

The man was very anxious, and he was in a cold sweat: "I'm really Hu Fashun!" Your name is Shi Yuanji, right, Zhang Donglou wrote an explanation for you, and he also informed my father to pay more attention to you, the arrow robe on your body is still customized by Zhang Donglou for you, now you can always believe it!" After the man finished speaking, his eyes opened wide, and he looked extremely aggrieved.

Shi Yuanji had no choice but to believe that he had withdrawn the feather cone and let them surround him to protect his body. "I don't know if you're lying, but you've seen what I'm capable of, don't be asking for trouble!" With that, Shi Yuanji turned around and wanted to go back to the room.

"Wait, you come with me, my dad asked me to take you to see him, if you don't go, I won't be able to pay the errand. The man still wouldn't give up.

Before the man could see it, a feather cone pressed against his throat again, and he exclaimed, "You ......"

"Don't you don't want you, I'm not worried. Shi Yuanji said with a smile. "Alright, now you can go, you lead the way. Don't worry, as long as I'm not in danger, you'll be fine. But if I'm in danger, you'll make me a backrest. ”

The man had no choice but to jump off the roof and show him the way.

......

After a short walk, the man led him to a large and magnificent mansion. He turned around and said calmly, "Believe it or not, this is the mansion of the prime minister, so you can get your flying knife out of my neck." ”

"Yes. Shi Yuanji withdrew the flying knife and said with a smile. "Actually, no matter who you are, as long as you have a place where you brought me and it seems like a human habit, I won't trouble you. ”

"Well, do you have the guts to come in with me?" said the man.

"You please first!" The man slammed on the door as Shi Yuanji agreed. After a while, the small window of the side door was opened.

"Who?" the janitor asked boredly, and after a fixed look, he shouted. "Young master, when did you go out, I'll open the door for you right away. ”

"Let's go. Hu Fashun took Shi Yuanji into the Hu Mansion.

In Hu's study, Hu Xueling looked at her father reading a novel at the desk and didn't know how to speak.

Hu Dan put down the book and looked at his daughter kindly: "What's the matter?

"Nope. Hu Xueling thought of Wang Qi's tragic situation, and her heart was blocked. "It's all my fault that I'm too willful, Wang Qi always advises me, but I always don't listen, otherwise he wouldn't die. So saying, he began to cry.

Hu Dan sighed and gently persuaded: "You don't need to blame yourself, it's all Gui Kun's bastard boy's fault." Dad promised you that he would avenge Wang Qi and make you angry. ”

"Dad, I'm not willful anymore, I know that the Gui family is still very powerful, and now is not the time to deal with them. Hu Xueling said in a choked voice.

"What nonsense!" Hu Dan said sternly. "The people of my Hu family can be taoguang and obscure, and they can be polite and virtuous, but they can't be bullied. What kind of thing is Gui Kun, and he deserves me to give him a good face!"

"Xue Ling, let me tell you, tomorrow I will let Gui Kun's kid kneel at the gate of our mansion and willingly give you the guilt," Hu Dan swore and said. "However, you need to think about what you will do when the time comes, so that you can get revenge without breaking the rules. ”

After hearing this, Hu Xueling wiped away her tears and nodded thoughtfully.

"Dad, I brought the people. Hu Fashun came to the study, Shi Li said.

Hu Dan looked at the cold sweat on Hu Fashun's face, and said with a smile: "Why have you been there for so long? Looking at your embarrassed appearance, did you find a way to embarrass others, but you were taught a lesson?"

Hu Fashun's face became ugly, his eyes wandered, and he never dared to reply.

"Okay, okay, let Shi Yuanji come in. As the so-called Zhizi Mo Ruo's father, his son's embarrassment is just a seasoning of life, of course Hu Dan will not make him too embarrassed, so he changed the topic.

Shi Yuanji and Hu Fashun walked around in Hu's mansion, listened to him introduce some things about Hu Dan, and already believed Hu Fashun's intentions. As the saying goes, if you don't have anything to do, you will go to the Three Treasures Palace, and Hu Dan will let his son invite him, and he will have something to entrust. Perhaps, this is the turning point for me to pass the entrance exam.

Hu Fashun came out of the study and politely invited him in, and Shi Yuanji was also an interesting person, so he returned the courtesy. Unexpectedly, the moment he entered the study, he ran into an acquaintance.

"It's you!" Hu Xueling called out in surprise.

Shi Yuanji saw the old man in the study and was about to salute him as a junior, but he was almost frightened by Hu Xueling's exclamation.

"Third sister, do you know each other?" Hu Fashun looked at Hu Xueling, then at Shi Yuanji, and said in surprise.

He ...... He was the one who saved me that day. Hu Xueling's heart was beating faster, her cheeks were red, she lowered her head shyly, and she no longer dared to look at Shi Yuanji's face.

With your expression, it's easy to think I'm a flower thief, Shi Yuanji scolded. He looked at Hu Fashun with undisguised surprise, Hu Dan's unfathomable eyes were really a little overwhelmed, and he stayed on the spot.

Hu Dan looked at his daughter's shy appearance and couldn't help laughing: "It turned out to be an acquaintance, and he was also the benefactor of the little girl." Shi Yuanji, right, Zhang Donglou talked about you in his letter, saying that you have natural disaster-level strength at a young age, which is really rare. ”

Hu Dan motioned for Hu Fashun and Shi Yuanji to sit down, Hu Xueling stood up and hurriedly saluted goodbye: "Father, my daughter is tired, go back to sleep first." ”

Hu Dan smiled and said, "Go, go, go." ”

He looked at Shi Yuanji and said jokingly: "Are you still used to living in the capital? ”

"Dad, he used a throwing knife, that doesn't count. Hu Fashun stood up and said excitedly. "Those throwing knives are like long eyes, chasing me and stabbing me, so who can beat them?"

"You, you don't have a brain. Seeing that his son did not step down according to the steps he arranged, but became more persistent, Hu Dan scolded softly. "Doesn't the fact that he can make this kind of flying knife that chases people and assassinates him means that he is proficient in the art of dragon patterns?

Although Hu Dan did not continue to speak, Hu Fashun had already understood. He himself likes to study the dragon pattern, but if he asks himself, he can't do anything to make this kind of flying knife. Thinking of this, he sat down dejectedly and stopped talking.

Shi Yuanji hurriedly said: "Senior is polite, I am just learning from Hu Gongzi, and I have no other intentions." "If Hu Fashun continues to make a fool of himself, Shi Yuanji may not have a good life.

Zhang Donglou is really accurate in seeing people, this Shi Yuanji is a transparent character, Hu Danxin said. "To tell you the truth, the reason why I came to you is because I want you to help me do something. Of course, I will give you a reward of 1,000 taels of gold after the deed is done. With that, Hu Dan took out a silver ticket worth 1,000 taels of gold.

Shi Yuanji looked at the silver ticket and couldn't help but feel his heart beat faster. In Xiaoyu Village, the Niu Er family spent three taels of silver a year, and when Mi Sida was alive, even if the master and apprentice were extravagant, they would spend five taels of silver a year. But now, in front of him was a silver ticket of 1,000 taels of gold, and he was almost fainting.

"What a luxury it is to be rich!" he said to himself.

"Shi Yuanji, what's wrong with you?" Hu Fashun had already truly admired Shi Yuanji, and hurriedly became concerned.

Will I tell you that I am faint, Shi Yuanji thought so in his heart, but said: "It's okay, it's just a little depressed." ”

Hu Dan smiled meaningfully: "Actually, isn't what you are most worried about is that you provoked the people of the Dugu family and the Yuwen family today, are you afraid that they will do something during the exam? As long as you help me do this, you don't have to be afraid of them anymore, because I pay the most attention to the rules." ”

"Tell me, as long as I can do it and don't violate morality, I will do my best!" Shi Yuanji looked at the silver ticket of one thousand taels of gold and said categorically.

"It's simple, and it's not moral. Hu Dan said calmly. "You go kill a cat for me!"
