Chapter 34: New Year

"In the beginning, I set the murderer's height too much, which was a mistake, so I quickly corrected it.

Before, I had been wondering why there were square mud marks in Tang Xiang's house and the place where Lord Wei died, but later I entered the palace and saw several palace maids wearing 'late down' for Qingguo.

Only then did I understand that it was the mark left by the 'late down', and this murderer was really painstaking! ”

Hu Xiu pretended to clap his hands in amazement.

"What's the night, I don't know this thing!"

"Oh? Can you let us search your house? I'm afraid that this murder weapon hasn't been dealt with yet, but now the corpse is well preserved, as long as the wound is on the right side, see how you quibble? ”

Originally, this woman's arrangement was almost seamless, but bad luck. On that day, our Han King happened to be on a visit, and the post house that should have been sealed in the afternoon according to the urine sex of the yamen was sealed early in the morning, and she hardly had time to deal with the murder weapon.

"Is Hu Guo just a gift for the country? Just because you are suspicious, you want to search the houses of the envoys of other countries? ”

The woman's face was embarrassed, and she finally began to panic.

"It's really trouble~"

Hu Xiu turned his head and glanced at the gray-robed man. He took off his hat, and the face under the hat was somewhat familiar, it was Hua Sixteen.

"Burigud, you can talk about the rest of the matter."

"I am a martial artist, or a martial artist who walks the rivers and lakes, that day, I finished my busy work and returned home, but I saw the scene where she killed my father.

I wanted to fight her to the death, but I couldn't beat her, and she didn't kill me, but imprisoned me and captured my wife and mother. Let me disguise myself as his attendant and enter the city of Hean, and force me to be a flower thief.

It was she who asked me to go to pick flowers for the daughter of the Wei Mansion, and asked me to deliberately make a movement to let the discoverers of the Wei Mansion be.

Originally, with my light skills, I could get rid of the people behind in an instant, but she insisted that I be caught up in half of Ping'an City.

After that, Hu Gongzi began to track me down, and then she asked me to find a few more good families to pick flowers at will, and asked me to deliberately bring people to the post house. She was wearing a mask that day, and she didn't know what she was stepping on, and she was almost as tall as me. ”

After Hua Sixteen finished speaking, the people of the Baohe Hall looked like the envoys of the Wu Kingdom.

"If you have anything else to say? I'm okay, I'll talk to you again, talk. ”

Hu Xiu was eating sweets in his mouth and talking, the things in this palace were different from those outside.

"Hehe~ I really underestimate you, you are worthy of being Hu Feiwei's son, the tiger father has no dog."

She waved her hand helplessly, she had already recognized her mouth when she said this, but she didn't know why she was so fearless.

"Come on, I want her to take it, put her in the dark prison house first, and ask for it on a later day!"

With an order, the guards outside the Baohe Hall rushed in, and the envoy of the Wuguo Kingdom did not resist, and his hands were easily restrained, and when he pressed to the door of the Baohe Palace, he suddenly turned his head.

Looking at Hu Xiu and moving her lips a few times, she was saying:

"Hu Xiu, we'll meet again~"

It's a pity that Hu Xiu turned his back to him at that time and didn't see it.

Later, sure enough, a pair of bloodstained nights were found in her post house, and a silver murder weapon, which happened to correspond to the wounds of the deceased, the evidence was conclusive, and she had no way to defend herself.

The body of the deceased can finally be dragged out of the ice cellar, and after such a long delay, it is time to be buried.

……

"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty! Willing to be punished! ”

At this time, Cao Quan, who had just kept saying that Chen Li was the murderer, knelt on the ground and said that he was punished.

"I think you're kind, and I'll forgive you this time."

At this time, the saint was obviously in a very good mood.

"Your Majesty, the state rites can't be messed up, I have contradicted the Holy One and must be punished."

"Then you say, what do you want?"

King Han frowned, this person is a dead brain, how can he still have a reason to want to be punished?

"Contradicting Your Majesty should have been a capital crime, but the minister can't die yet, the minister still has to share the emperor's worries, and the minister is willing to receive fifty boards."

"Okay, okay, then let's beat you fifty boards."

Helpless, he waved his hand and had to agree.

"Come on, take him down, and beat him fifty boards."

After speaking, he secretly made a gesture under his hand, which meant to make people lighter. Cao Quan is right, King Han still needs this old man to work for him.

~~~

The banquet continued as usual, and from time to time there was a show that came out to cheer up. Hu Xiu drank wine, he drank a small cup and a small glass, although it was a small drink, but he couldn't hold a lot of it.

And this wine is more fragrant than the autumn dew he drank before, and he was greedy for a while, but in order to be refreshed for a while, he drank too much and drank a piece of it again.

When I woke up, I found myself lying on the bed, the dragon and the phoenix were still conspicuous, and there was some darkness around them, and it was already dark.

"Young Master (Childe), you're awake."

Listening to the voice, you know that it is the camellia and the little girl, and when you look at it, it is indeed the two of them. What's the matter, this standing bed has become his resurrection point? I'm the only one who will be allowed back to this bed if something happens.

"What about my father and my mother?"

Hu Xiu rubbed his head and climbed out of bed.

"It's in your yard."

"Ah~"

Hu Xiu stretched his waist and was refreshed.

"I just got drunk, who dragged me back?"

"It's the purple smoke girl from the drunken fragrance house, and she is still outside with the lady and the master."

Tea should be the way.

"What?"

Hu Xiu thought it was Bai Sha or Hua Sixteen, who carried him back, but he didn't expect it to be purple smoke.

"It's true that the Purple Smoke Girl carried it back, what's wrong, Childe?"

The little guy wondered.

"Nothing."

Those people were still not men anymore, watching a woman carry him back.

"Click~"

Pushing open the wooden door, the cold wind outside the house blew in, and Hu Xiu shivered. I don't know when the stove in the house was moved, although it was hot inside, but it was too stuffy compared to the outside.

Looking at the starry sky outside the house, tsk~ This is the first year I have spent in this world? There is no Spring Festival Gala, no family reunion to sit together for dinner, and no New Year's ......

Hu Xiu's thoughts couldn't help but empty again, the air became much fresher, but the people he was thinking about seemed to be gone.

"Hugh? You're awake! Don't stand there stupidly? As soon as you sober up, I'll ask someone to bring you the decanting soup. I just heard from your father that you are majestic in the Baohe Hall today, and you will give him a face. ”

"Face-up? When did I say he gave me a face? My Hu Feiwei and the prestige of King Hu Yan, do you want others to raise your face? ”

Wang Ye Hu looked proud, but the joy in the corners of his eyes couldn't hide it.

"Huh~ What are you talking about? When did our son become someone else? If you don't make it clear today, I won't be able to spare you today. ”

"Ah~ No, madam, I just made a slip of the tongue, madam."

……

Hu Xiu looked at the pair, the two of them, these were his father and mother in this world.

and Ying Jiu who covered her mouth and snickered on the side, at this moment she has not changed into the vulgar red clothes, at this moment, how can she be so good-looking when she dances. But at this moment, she is also the most real her, Hu Xiu was stunned for a while.

"Young master, what are you still looking at in a daze, you look so stupid."

Ying Jiu shouted at Hu Xiu.

"Okay, you, dare to say that I'm stupid, see if I teach you a lesson today, young master!"

Hu Xiu hurriedly shook his head, and only then did he realize why he was staring at this woman.

Maybe he doesn't know that at this moment, he has taken root in this world. There was such an exception that a group of people who he thought and thought about appeared around him one by one...

Time passed quickly, and Hu Xiu specially called someone to find an iron plate that he usually used for cooking. I made some more long sticks of wood and put the cut meat on a plate. Because it was in ancient times, there were no spices, so I had to replace them with something else.

After a busy period of work, I finally put the meat skewers on the grill shelf.

"Young Master, what are we doing now? In this way, is this meat really delicious? Don't waste it. ”

The little guy has been talking more and more in recent days.

"Don't talk nonsense, this is BBQ, do you understand, I'll let you see my craftsmanship later."

"Oh~"

When the fire was burning, Hu Xiu greased the meat skewers and put them on the barbecue grill, and when one side was burning, he replaced it with an exception, smeared it with oil, and continued to grill, and so on.

As long as it is a fragrant seasoning, don't sprinkle it on the meat like money.

"Young master, it's so fragrant~"

Ying Jiu was about to drool when he smelled it on the side, and he reached out to take it.

"I can't eat it, the meat is not cooked yet~"

Hu Xiu hurriedly knocked down her outstretched hand, she couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry.

"Ah~How long will it take to wait~"

"Sister Ziyan, just wait with peace of mind, the son has his own measure."

"It's still called Ziyan, don't you know Camellia? Could it be that you're a dark guard, so you don't know her identity? ”

Since he knew that the Drunken Xiangju was one of the strongholds of the Shadow Pavilion, Hu Xiu also regarded Camellia as a person from the Shadow Pavilion.

"What identity? Childe, what you said, why can't the slave family understand it? ”

Camellia was dumbfounded for a moment, a little confused.

"It's nothing, he's burned, the fire here is too big, I'll take him to the side to blow a cool breeze."

Ying Jiu laughed, dragged Hu Xiu and left.

"What are you doing, I'm still barbecuing, don't drag me."

Hu Xiu was dragged away by the shadow.

"Young master, this camellia is not from the Shadow Pavilion, you are mistaken!"

"Isn't she? So how did she get selected as one of the top four brands? Could it be that the winter snow and frost are not from the Shadow Pavilion? ”

Hu Xiu has always thought that these four top cards are all dark box operations of the Shadow Pavilion, and they have been selected a long time ago, but now it seems that they are not all the same.

"This winter snow and frost are the people of the Shadow Pavilion. No, I'm here to tell you about Camellia, don't say it, she's not from the Shadow Pavilion, she knows a lot of things, it will only bring danger to her. ”

"Okay, I understand the reason, I have to go back quickly, the barbecue has to be turned over, otherwise it will be mushy."

……

The night was getting a little deeper, but Hu Xiu's small courtyard was becoming more and more lively, and everyone was holding skewers and eating happily.

"Xiu'er, although your skewers are delicious, you don't have to put your mind on this, as the saying goes, a gentleman is far away from cooking......"

This Hu Fei drank with those generals today, and he drank more than Hu Xiu, and if he drank too much, he naturally talked more, so he naturally had to reprimand him from time to time.

"You old man, what's going on today, I can't even eat meat."

"Ma'am, you can't say that."

"If you don't say that, how can I say it?"

As soon as these two people don't fight, they feel uncomfortable.

"Freshly grilled skewers, little white, little black!"

Hu Xiu handed the freshly grilled skewers to Hei Kill and Bai Sha, these two people didn't talk much this night, they kept watching from the side, and they did whatever they wanted, like subordinates.

Hu Xiu waited for the last pot of barbecue to finish the barbecue, and he was full, after all, this barbecue didn't have to be watched all the time, and during the roasting process, there was time to eat barbecue.

Seeing that the moonlight is already dark, everyone's interest is gradually subsiding, and they have to go back to sleep, and the new year may have arrived.

"Hugh, your father and I will go first."

Yu'er's mother pulled it, and Hu Feiwei, who had eaten with oil on his beard, left the courtyard.

"Okay."

Hu Xiu answered, and also went back to his room, he had to sleep. But not to mention, the night was quite fulfilling.

~~

Late at night, the right side room of the small courtyard.

"Brother, are you sleeping?"

Through the screen, Black Kill shouted at Bai Sha.

"What's wrong, can't sleep?"

"Brother, are we going to kill people again in the future?"

The part of the screen was silent for a long time before answering.

"Above this court, maybe there is a high-ranking official who wants Hu Xiu to die, or 'they' want to kill Hu Xiu, if my sister doesn't want to kill people, then tomorrow, we will secretly leave here, leave Hu country, and go away to other countries."

"But I don't want to die."

The black killer was in a hurry, blurted out, and after saying it, he found that what she said was ambiguous.

"Because he's the only one other than my brother who doesn't think I'm ugly, I don't want him to die."

The other side of the screen was silent again.

"Okay, after that, I'll kill the people my sister wants to kill. If anyone wants to kill Hu Xiu, then he will have to step over my corpse. ”

Bai Sha seemed to be saying something unremarkable, and there was no emotion in his tone.

Then, silence returned to the room.

……

ps: In fact, in the Tang Dynasty, there was a "late fall", this thing is a kind of high heels in ancient times, if you are interested, you can search for it.

"Buzhigud" is the Mongolian word for eagle.

BBQ = Wild Barbecue.
