Chapter 7: Poisoning
After speaking, Su Xun followed Xia Yu, and the other party almost fell down when he went downstairs.
The three of them broke up in front of the Zuichun Building, and when they saw Li Shimin walking away, Xia Yu's face was no longer drinking, his eyes were shining, and he said in a low voice: "Let's go, let's go and wait for Hu Feng." ”
"Didn't you just find it? Let's go back and reason with that General Gao, and people won't screw our heads off! Su Xun said that he was about to go back.
Xia Yu grabbed him: "We don't have to run to the back garden to make trouble, just wait for him at the back door!" "He used to look for Hu Feng, and he used the strategy of startling the snake.
Su Xun couldn't resist Xia Yu, and followed Xia Yu to the corner of the alley, where the two hid and observed the back door of the Left-behind Mansion.
About half an hour later, there was already a watchman on the street.
Su Xun looked up at the dark sky: "I'll go back first, you wait here slowly." ”
Xia Yu covered Su Xun's mouth and motioned for him to look at the back door, and sure enough, a lame man walked out of the back door.
Su Xun's mouth made a whining sound, judging from the shape of his mouth, this person was Hu Feng. The two waited for Hu Feng to get closer, rushed out of the darkness, and held Hu Feng's arms one left and one right.
"Hu Feng, I see where you're running now. Dare to poison my father, you don't want to live, do you? Su Xun grabbed Hu Feng's collar at the residence, and the other party was lifted up like a dead dog, kicking his feet on the ground indiscriminately.
Su Xun gave Hu Feng an ear scraper, inciting half of the other party's face to turn blue.
Hu Feng was about to speak: "Young Master......" suddenly spit out a mouthful of black blood from his mouth, tilted his head, and burped.
"I didn't kill him, I just wanted to slap him twice to get angry." Su Xun explained in a panic.
Xia Yu pondered for a moment: "He may have been poisoned." We went to the left-behind mansion to find someone, Gao Junya already knew that Hu Feng had exposed Xingzang, and the way to make a person never open his mouth was of course to kill the other party. He glanced sympathetically at Hu Feng's corpse that had fallen to the ground, still unsightly: "Let's find a place to bury him." ”
Su Xun said: "Okay." The two of them found a sack to carry Hu Feng's body out of the city, and buried Hu Feng's body in a secluded place.
While doing all this, they didn't notice that there was a pair of eyes watching them all the time.
The owner of these eyes is Li Shimin!
"This Xia Yu can have such a scheming, this time we Jinyang have to win over the Gao family!" Thinking of this, he left quietly and headed towards the Jinyang Palace Prison Mansion.
When Xia Yu and Su Xun returned to Gaofu, Su Cheng's family of three was waiting for them to eat in the living room.
"You two have been chasing Hu Feng for a day, I think you are just busy working, right?" Su Yuexin teased the two of them.
After Su Xun sat down, he sighed with a disgraced face: "It's not just a waste of work." Su Yuexin asked: "Tell me, why are you busy working in vain?" ”
Su Cheng coughed, and motioned with his eyes to the two brothers and sisters not to talk about this kind of thing in the living room.
Su Yuexin was still unhappy, and lowered her head and ate sullenly.
The family sat together, Xia Yu once again felt that he was being treated as an outsider, and Li Rong and Su Yuexin were adding soup and vegetables to the two of them in the family, so they didn't have time to pay attention to Xia Yu.
Old Man Su, who had just recovered, was embarrassed, and took the initiative to put a chicken leg in Xia Yu's bowl: "Virtuous son-in-law, you eat a chicken leg!" He also felt aggrieved, and hinted at his daughter Su Yuexin several times, but the other party completely ignored his hints and still went his own way.
When it was over, Su Cheng said apologetically to Xia Yu: "My daughter has been spoiled by me since she was a child, don't care about the virtuous son-in-law!" ”
Su Xun laughed on the side.
Su Cheng glared at Su Xun: "The two of us came to my study." ”
The three of them came to Su Cheng's study, and after closing the door of the study, he asked the two, "Has Hu Feng found it?" ”
Xia Yu told how to find Hu Feng and how Hu Feng died.
The candle flame in the study was flickering, Su Cheng frowned, and after a while, he let out a long sigh: "Virtuous son-in-law, you also know that the saying is called taking precautions." On the surface, the Great Sui is calm now, but you also heard what Doctor Ye said, Your Majesty is now very concerned about the person surnamed Li, because it is rumored in the world that the person surnamed Li will replace the Great Sui as the lord of the world. What do you think of such rumors? ”
Xia Yu naturally knew that there were seven hundred years of national fortune after the Sui Dynasty in the Tang Dynasty: "To survive in troubled times, when you rely on the most potential forces, I think the Li family is good." ”
"Now the general trend of the world, Luoyang has Dou Jiande and Wang Shichong, Shandong has Du Fuwei, Shu has Xiao Milling, Southern Xinjiang has Feng An, and there are many rebel armies from all walks of life. I think any one can compare to the Li family. "Su Xun has observed the situation in the world and is in charge of the distribution of forces. The forces he mentioned now have their own strongholds, and the Li family does not even have a base now.
After finishing speaking, Su Xun added: "What's more, Li Yuan, the eunuch of Jinyang Palace, has no intention of rebelling now, and His Majesty has been investigating the Li family's rebellion recently, aren't they in danger?" ”
"A gentleman is not under a dangerous wall, as a businessman, I know this truth very well!" Su Cheng was not particularly satisfied with Xia Yu's statement.
Xia Yu insisted: "Xianweng listens to what I say, there must be my reason. ”
Su Cheng now thought of Yuan Tiangang's criticism of Xia Yu in his mind, this son is a dragon and phoenix among people, it is rare, although he does not have the life of the emperor, but he has the material of the emperor!
After thinking about it, Su Cheng didn't make up his mind in the end, but thought that he was not in a hurry to state his position now, and he would go back and forth with the Li family, as long as he didn't make a stand.
The three of them discussed for a while, but did not discuss the result, and went back to their rooms to sleep.
After opening the door, Xia Yu saw Su Yuexin lying on the bed, half of her jade-like arm exposed. It's late autumn, and if it's night, you might catch a cold. He kindly wanted to cover Su Yuexin with a quilt.
didn't expect Su Yuexin to wake up, and without saying a word, she stabbed Xia Yu again.
Xia Yu jumped back: "I said you are a thief mother-in-law, your man is worried that you will catch a cold at night, so he will cover the quilt for you, you really don't know the hearts of good people." ”
Su Yuexin spat on the ground: "You are a thief mother-in-law, I want a thief mother-in-law, so what are you?" ”
Xia Yu smiled lazily: "Of course I'm a thief." ”
Although Su Yuexin said fiercely, her eyes softened. She called out to Xiaoyu, who was waiting outside, and asked Xiaoyu to bring another futon.
After Xiaoyu put down the futon, she saw the quilt on the ground, laughed skillfully, and then closed the door.
It's still a familiar scent, but sleeping underground isn't as bad as it was when I was asleep.
