Chapter Seventy-Six: High Hats

"Okay, mother, I know."

Hu Xiu lowered his head, the three brothers and sisters should not have to worry about their lives, but they were still aggrieved and uncomfortable in their hearts, and they didn't understand the reason.

"Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and in Ping'an City, there are your uncle's protection, and my father and I are protecting you, even so, there are still people who have your idea. Xiu'er, you have to remember that when you leave Ping'an City, you must always pay attention to your own safety, and if there is danger, let the emperor and the army carry it.

After the Shangsi Festival, it is almost not too cold, and the inspection envoy order should also come down, and then you will have to leave Ping'an City and go to inspect the eight major realms in Dahu, and the journey will be tiring.

Wei Niang has prepared good horses and carriages for you in advance, and as for the horses you need for the 1,000 emperors and the army, I have already contacted people, and the horses to be prepared are naturally excellent.

……”

Hu Xiu listened to Yu'er's mother's "nagging", but his heart was warm and a little moved, the beautiful woman in front of him was really good to him. After listening to it little by little, it was not too early, so I went back.

Entering his yard, Camellia told him that Hei Kill had already woken up, and now he had gone to bed to rest, Hu Xiu was embarrassed to disturb, soaked in the medicinal bath, looked at the sky and was not early, gently pushed open his door, took off his clothes, and was about to lie down.

"Xianggong,"

Caught off guard, there was a sudden sound in his ears, which startled Hu Xiu, it was already late at night, but Shi Ling'er hadn't slept yet.

"It's getting late, let's rest early."

Hu Xiu said hello, and felt that it was pitch black around him, and there was nothing to open his eyes to look at randomly, so he closed his eyelids.

"I can't sleep~"

Ling'er rarely sprinkled Jiao, leaned over, hugged Hu Xiu's arm, and the "little lotus showed sharp corners" on her chest was slightly immature.

Although I could feel a trace of softness through my belly pocket, I couldn't feel a little uneasy in my heart, but I quickly stopped thinking again.

"Still thinking about the day? Thinking of you Uncle Zhang? ”

"No, I've already figured it out, people can't be resurrected after death, Uncle Zhang has countless living people in his life, and he will definitely not be treated differently after he goes down.

But when I think about it today, I'm worried about something else, I think that Yan Yun is a man of great courage and great wisdom, and he must not be a thing in the pool. I'm afraid that if he can survive this time, I'm afraid that he will make trouble for you in the future. ”

Shi Ling'er lay beside Hu Xiu, and the hot breath he exhaled slapped on his face, itchy and a little numb.

"It's okay, do you think I didn't notice him? It's just that the state has national laws, and if I had beheaded him in the yamen at that time, I would have set myself on fire, and there would have been a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Besides, it was your man who died, and if I had made trouble with him, your reputation would certainly not be too good-looking, and if you were to be called a 'poisonous woman', it would be worth the loss. ”

Hu Xiu explained, she whispered two words that she couldn't hear clearly, and leaned towards him again, the movement was louder, and the maid on the side was also half-awake and turned over.

Fortunately, the bed was big enough, otherwise the maid would have fallen down. But they also wanted to let the maid move to sleep elsewhere, but both of them didn't seem to agree, and on the grounds that they were used to sleeping together, they couldn't resist death, and finally formed a scene where these two women served a husband together.

Seeing that she really fell asleep with his arm in her arms, she shook her head helplessly, lay down on her back, and slept until dawn.

The "biological clock" in his body woke up Hu Xiu on time, looked at Shi Ling'er, who was still asleep, and kissed him lightly on the forehead, and got dressed.

Getting up on time every day is no longer painful, for Hu Xiu, it is a kind of happiness, this world seems to be a little different from the world in his previous life.

This difference does not refer to a single person or thing, but to a different system of power. Just like Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu in the previous life, he can lift a thousand catties, and he is already the top general.

In this world, as long as you reach the sixth order, except for those martial artists who rely on drugs to pile up, most of those who break through the sixth order in a normal way have the power to lift thousands of catties when they move qi and blood.

Hu Xiu didn't know if he could lift a thousand catties now, but the strength that increased day after day made him mistakenly think that he was a figure who was the enemy of ten thousand people.

Today was supposed to rest, and this detective case was also extremely brain-consuming, but after the fight, someone in the palace came, and before today, it was time to pay the last "bandit income tax".

The gold and silver finances had already been put away, and some attendants from King Hu's mansion were called, and a bookkeeper was found, and he was asked to take two-tenths of his wealth.

Let Camellia go over to supervise, for Camellia, he can still be trusted, a gentle beauty, she shouldn't be able to do the thing of self-theft, how to say that she is also half of Hu Xiu's pillow person.

As for himself, he was stealing idle, moving a chair to the courtyard, the cool breeze was blowing, as if there was no coldness in the past, not the winter wind, like the spring wind, with a dark spring mood.

I was full of wine and food, and I ate more steamed buns this morning, and I drank two large bowls of meat and egg soup made by Uncle Baal, and my stomach was full, but I only thought about sleeping.

Leaning his head on the wooden chair, all the thoughts in his mind were gone, and then for a while, his face was tilted to the left, and he put his hands on his belly, and slept soundly.

When the punctual time came, the palace sent someone over, two eunuchs, and a team of guards, and our Hu Dashizi was still asleep there.

Fortunately, Shi Ling'er was more reliable, and the property obtained from Luohu Mountain was divided into two-tenths, and the carriages and horses were prepared and the financial tools were loaded, and they waited for someone from the palace to pick them up.

But when someone comes to the palace, someone must come to greet him, and the person in charge of this matter is naturally Hu Xiu, so naturally he has to come out.

Outside the gate of King Hu's mansion, the two eunuchs and the forbidden army were waiting there, as for entering, did they dare? Everyone knows that Hu Wangfu has been in the limelight recently, and no one dares to offend.

Similarly, no one in the previous Hu Wangfu dared to offend, His Majesty's sole favorite, coupled with the fact that Prince Hu had a great relationship with the kings with different surnames in the same dynasty, most of the generals in the court were his old friends, and their own martial arts were extremely high, so naturally no one dared to provoke them.

After waiting for a long time, one of the eunuchs finally showed a trace of impatience on his face, but he quickly covered it up, but unfortunately, his expression was captured. After staying in the palace for a long time, which one is not a human spirit, they are the best at observing words and feelings.

"Young Master~ Young Master?"

Seeing that she was about to miss the time, Camellia couldn't help but be a little anxious for Hu Xiu. Camellia had been waiting beside Hu Xiu for a long time, quietly waiting for someone to wake up. But he didn't wake up, and in desperation, he had to forcibly wake people up.

"Huh? What's wrong. ”

Hu Xiu opened his eyes in a daze, wiped the saliva from the corners of his mouth, and covered his body with two blankets at some point.

"It's the end of the day, and the people in the palace have been waiting at the gate of the palace for a long time."

"What, why didn't you wake me up sooner?" Hearing this, Hu Xiu hurriedly stood up.

"I just... It's just that seeing that the son is tired and tired, he can't bear to disturb him, the slave is wrong, if the son wants to punish me, punish me. ”

Camellia looked depressed, knowing that she had delayed her son's affairs, and felt a little blamed in her heart.

"It's okay, how could I be punished, did you collect the property that you asked you to collect today?"

Hu Xiu said that the property collected was naturally two-tenths of the property confiscated by Luohu Mountain.

"Okay, but~"

"Alright, I'll go."

Hu Xiu didn't finish listening to what Camellia said, and his clothes were not tidied up, so he ran outside, and he had already made others wait for him for more than an hour.

There is also a reason, because he fell asleep, and now that he has woken up, he naturally doesn't let others wait any longer, no, he is not so arrogant now.

At this moment, outside the gate of King Hu's mansion, it was already full of people, yes, there was such a big movement from time to time, and the forbidden army stayed here for nearly an hour, and the idlers who loved to watch the drama and the pedestrians who passed by all surrounded them.

Hu Xiu hurried and ran to the door of the house, and saw his wife Shi Ling'er waiting there, the queue at the door had already been set up, a team of carriages and horses, pulled by people, and the carriages were carrying large iron boxes, lined up all the way, and there were more than a dozen carriages.

The exception is naturally two old eunuchs, plus a team of guards, this relative scene is indeed "grandiose".

"I've seen Hu Shizi."

When the two eunuchs saw Hu Xiu come out, they came forward and saluted, Hu Xiu also returned the salute, and the people also walked to Ling'er's side.

"Why don't you call me?" Hu Xiu whispered.

"I have to prepare the carriage, and I have to help you support the faΓ§ade, how can I have time to call you, you are a little tired."

Shi Ling'er's eyes secretly rolled up, but she still maintained her dignity on the surface.

"Shizi, you see that since you have come out, shouldn't you pay the thirty percent of the military expenses paid by the Tiger Mountain?"

The face of one of the eunuchs smiled with flesh and flesh, and the face he looked at was the impatient old eunuch who was waiting.

"Thirty percent? Isn't it just a matter of paying two? When did it become 30%? Hu Xiu said in his heart, he couldn't help but be surprised, but he didn't say it to his face.

"Pay, naturally, you have to pay." At this time, I can only grit my teeth and say it.

"The payment of this military fee has to be paid to the treasury, so naturally it must not be sloppy, Hu Shizi, can you let us check the box and check the amount." The eunuch said.

"Naturally, you can."

Hu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he was not asked to take out and compare the property he had confiscated from Luohu Mountain, then everything was easy to say.

Shi Ling'er looked behind him, and motioned to the attendant who pulled the carriage to come down, and the iron box of this carriage was opened, and the gold and silver in it were full, and the eyes of the idlers around him were shining, if they didn't look at the forbidden army, they were afraid that they would come up and rob it.

The guards were also quick with their hands and feet, so they looked at it casually, and no one told them how much money they should have, and when they checked it, they naturally didn't take it so seriously.

But Hu Xiu was in the guards, and he glanced at it casually, hey~ acquaintance, Lin Er's stupid boy is also in this queue. The two eunuchs also blended in with the janissaries and searched at will.

"Bang~"

As the last tin box was closed, the search was over.

"Hu Shizi, after the inspection, there is no problem with the gold and silver handed over to the treasury."

Checked? After the inspection was completed, he didn't even know the specific amount, so he said that the inspection was completed, but it was a bit perfunctory.

"There is indeed no problem with the gold and silver here, but you have a big problem!"

The eunuch, who had been silent, grabbed his colleague's arm and went deep into his sleeve, and a large gold ingot was taken out.

"Well, I'll just say what you did when you put your hand in that iron box, to embezzle the gold of the treasury, do you know what kind of crime it is?"

"Liang He! How dare you hurt me? Don't you know who's standing behind you!? But the eunuch was still bold, or he didn't know what was going to happen to him, and he was talking nonsense.

"Hehe~ Although I, Liang, am a person who has lost his descendants, he also knows that the money of the empire cannot be moved. If you dare to steal ten gold today, you will dare to steal 100 gold from the treasury tomorrow, and you will dare to steal 10,000 gold or even 10,000 gold from the treasury the day after tomorrow.

And the money from these treasury should have been used to relieve the disaster area and use it to march and fight, if it is because you have killed many victims and lost the battle, you are a sinner of the Hu country! ”

Hu Xiu narrowed his eyes as he listened, this Liang He is so powerful, this method of stealing concepts is really perfect.

"You, you, you..." The fellow eunuch even said three words to you, but he had nothing to say.
