Chapter 324: Shaft
The road from his house to Xia Mansion is not long, and it is almost time for a meal to take a slow ride in the car on weekdays. However, today he walked for almost an hour to see the mansion of Xia Mansion from the distance of "Wangshan Running a Dead Horse", and the difference in speed was really not half a star.
No way, who let him be besieged by the crowd watching the excitement!
Hundreds of people stood on the side of the road, barely in sight. The crowd covers all ages, from septuagenarians to three-year-olds, and I am afraid that only the Lantern Festival can make this battle.
They all came to watch the marriage of the county lord of Guangling.
Xia Hanxue is a weak female streamer, for the peace of Da Rui and the peace of the people, she did not hesitate to go to the bitter cold land of Beihu, not only to be humiliated, but also to take the huge risk of dying and living in front of the ghost gate...... For such a resolute and brave good girl, the people have long forgotten that she is the Miss Xia family who is high and tall on weekdays, and they have also forgotten what Raushzi "county lord", they only remember that this Nizi once worked hard for everyone, and that was enough.
From Xia Hanxue's return to Beijing to greet thousands of empty alleys, you can also see her popularity.
Therefore, people's eyes are very unkind when they look at Xu Jiren. If it weren't for the fact that the messengers who were on the verge of the great enemy kept stopping the crowd for Xu Jiren, he estimated that he would not be able to leave Xia Mansion tomorrow morning.
Everyone knows the bad things of the Xu family, and even the children in the capital can talk about his bad deeds. If it weren't for the presence of people from the government, there would definitely be a lot of hot-blooded young people rushing up to clash with the Xu family's pick-up team at this moment.
Even so, there is no small friction. For example, from time to time, someone whistles and cheers; There are also people who take advantage of people's unpreparedness to shout "beasts" and "scum", and when the people of the Xu family and the government want to find this person to settle accounts, they only see a large number of heads with the same angry face.
Before going out, Xu Jiren's mentality was not bad. The groom does not necessarily have to go to pick up his relatives in this year, and it is also optional to sit at home and wait for the bride to arrive, which is not against etiquette.
However, he rode on a tall horse, and went out with a luxurious wind lineup surrounded by a group of domestic slaves.
He knew that he was going out to pretend to be B today, and he hadn't considered any high-profile or not-high-profile issues.
Later, his little patience was worn out, so that when a citizen was scrambled and staggered into his ranks, his first instinct was to raise his whip.
"Uncle, no!" The nearest relatives hurriedly grabbed him and said in a low voice: "There are more than 10,000 people on the road, in case you go down with a whip to arouse the anger of the people and give birth to a civil uprising...... It's not a pity for me to die, but even if my subordinates have three heads and six arms, I won't be able to protect my uncle. ”
Xu Jiren's face turned from blue to purple, and from purple to green.
His dignified and loyal uncle has always been shouting and drinking to the people on the street, and it is not a matter of the other party blocking the road and whipping a horse whip or something. Just last year, there was also a Hou Ye who galloped down a passerby on the street, and in a fit of anger, he killed most of the poor man who had been disabled by the collision, and finally only lost a few hundred taels of silver under the mediation of the government?
Who knows now......
Xu Jiren, who was about to bite his lip, was stunned for a long time before putting down his hand holding the horsewhip high.
The unlucky ghost, who had just been trembling with fear, finally raised his head. Mustering up the courage to glance at Xu Jiren, the fear in his eyes slowly disappeared, replaced by disdain, contempt, and even a little hatred.
"You!"
Just before Xu Jiren, who was angry, couldn't help but want to make a move, the man quickly walked out of the line to greet his relatives, and disappeared into the crowd in an instant.
"Shaft!"
Viciously dropping a foul word, Xu Jiren gritted his teeth and chose to ride forward.
He is used to acting as a prestige, but who wants to provoke a popular uprising? This is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, if something big happens that shakes the palace, he, the loyal uncle, will be stripped of a layer of skin even if he is not responsible. In case the angry crowd gives him a "trampling to death", then he has no place to cry, because eighty percent of the court will think that "the law does not blame the public", and then the big things will be turned into small and small things. There are as many uncles in the capital as dogs, and when the time comes, he will wait for a symbolic mourning, and he will lose a lot!
He still dared to wave to the resentful people, now? He quietly lowered his proud head, because he really saw a little bit of "eating its flesh and sleeping its skin" in the eyes of the people.
Under the protection of officials and domestic slaves, Xu Jiren and his entourage finally arrived at Xia Mansion. At this moment, it is almost noon, and the person who can come so late to pick up relatives is definitely the only one in the history of Da Rui.
There were a lot fewer onlookers near the Xia family's house, but the group of onlookers in the distance had no intention of leaving.
What Xu Jiren didn't know was that in a remote corner, there were several eyes that had been staring at his movements, like a tiger ready to attack.
The etiquette of the wedding is extremely complicated, but both families are people with heads and faces, and they are not sloppy at all. So, the bored melon-eating masses began to chat again:
"It's really a flower stuck in cow dung...... I've heard about the marriage of the county lord of Guangling before, but I didn't expect to really marry this bastard? Oh my God, why don't you open your eyes? ”
"That's it, the good cabbage makes the pig arch! Didn't Xu Jiren stay in Fengyue Field all the time, so he asked him to look for flowers and ask Liudi for a lifetime, why did he come to spoil the county lord of Guangling? Hey, the county lord has to endure hardships when he marries, and he can't get his life ......."
"I also said before that "Pearl Tears" was for fun, but I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to see such a human tragedy...... By the way, have you heard of it? As it was rumored before, the county lord of Guangling and President Xiao of the mirror newspaper are on good terms? ”
"If only that were the case. The county lord and President Xiao are really a pair of talented and beautiful people...... It's a pity, how can a newspaper seller rob someone else's uncle? Don't be delusional......"
The volume of everyone was not loud, but a large buzzing sound still made Xu Jiren, who couldn't hear anything, very unhappy, so he glared viciously in the direction of the sound.
After tossing for a long time, Xia Hanxue, who was wearing a red hijab, sat in a sedan chair with the support, and the team began to move slowly again.
Because they couldn't go back, Xu Jiren's team changed routes. Not surprisingly, countless people flocked to the road, and the wide streets were once again crowded.
The arrogance in Xu Jiren's heart has revived. You can be dissatisfied, but what can you decide? I am married, next time if any ordinary people are lucky enough to see Xia Hanxue's true face, don't you want to call "Mrs. Xu"?
said that it was too late, and a loud shout in the crowd exploded like a thunderbolt on a sunny day:
"Xu thief, leave Xue'er!"
