"Fourth Uncle Huo was killed?"

The one who came to Yuzhang Villa to report the news was a small guy, who often followed Huo Chongcheng to Yuzhang Villa to play tricks, at this time he was in tears, and he no longer had the liveliness on weekdays. Zhao Youju listened to his words, still couldn't believe it, asked again, and after getting it, he clenched his fists tightly, and his teeth also clenched slightly.

Huo Zuoyu is an important ally he has chosen, and any troubles in Yuzhang Villa on weekdays are solved by Huo Zuoyu, and at the same time, with his reputation as a lawyer, some matters that may affect his reputation are also handled by him. However, he was in the prime of life, but he was suddenly killed, which was a heavy blow to Zhao and Ju.

This has been the biggest setback since he started the layout.

"Tell me the details!"

The little guy told Huo Zuoyu about the assassination on the night of his return yesterday from beginning to end, he didn't know much, so he couldn't say anything, but at the end, he said: "When the little master of my family came, he said to me that this matter must be Zhao Dalang, and asked Da Lang to help him in the friendship with the little master of my family!" ”

Zhao Youju nodded: "It should be so, even if Chongcheng doesn't say it, I will also go to help with the details." ”

After sending away the little guy, Zhao and Ju thought for a while, if Zhao Xi was by his side, with his experience, he could help a lot, but now Zhao Xi and Hu Fulang, two people with great experience in doing things, have been sent out, Xiao Bolang is not very familiar with the world, and Zhao Zi said that although he is calm, he is younger after all.

"Zi said, prepare some gifts, don't be lazy." Thinking of this, Zhao Youju was a little annoyed by the lack of people under his subordinates.

When Zhao Heju led his own Zhuang guests to the Huo family, the Huo family was in a gloomy cloud, and the monks and Taoists who were invited, the chanting of the scriptures and the beating of cymbals, coupled with the worship and crying, all kinds of voices made people feel depressed and irritable.

The little guy had been waiting in front of the door, and when he saw Zhao Youju coming, he made a look, Zhao and Ju nodded, and followed him and entered through the side door of Zhuangzi. It stands to reason that those who come to mourn like him are juniors, and they should enter from the main gate and kowtow in front of Huo Zuoyu's mourning hall. However, since Huo Chongcheng is so arranged, he must have his reasons.

After being led to a room by the little guy, it took a long time for Huo Chongcheng, who was dressed in filial piety, to hurry over, and when he saw Zhao Youju, he immediately burst into tears and said something like this: "My father is dead!" ”

Zhao Youju pursed his lips and patted him on the shoulder, Zhao Youju was only eight years old, and his height was just as high as Huo Chongcheng's shoulder, so his action was a bit nondescript, but no one who saw it felt inappropriate. At this time, his expression was like that of a grieving adult, comforting another child who was even more grieving.

"I want revenge!" This is Huo Chongcheng's second sentence.

"I'll help you!" Zhao and Ju responded categorically.

"The relatives in the family only think about burying my father and then dividing up my family property." Huo Chongcheng heard Zhao and Ju's words, and his eyes were red: "Heju, only you still want to help me take revenge!" ”

"The little guy you sent doesn't understand very well, and you can tell me what happened." Zhao Heju sighed, since he heard that Huo Zuoyu was dead, he knew that there would be such a situation, now in the Great Song Dynasty, the power of the rural clans is extremely strong, and it is not uncommon for the same clan to dispute over the family property. However, this is Huo Chongcheng's family matter, and it is not good for him to interfere directly, so he can only give advice for him. However, it is urgent to avenge Huo Zuoyu, and it is necessary to dig him out before the murderer flies away.

Huo Chongcheng told everything about that day, and said that a stranger inquired about Huo Zuoyu in Zhuangzi a few days ago, and after saying this, he felt sorry for himself with tears in his eyes: "If I had told my father the news that someone had inquired about earlier, I wouldn't have ...... Not so really! ”

"If those people really came with a heart, you told Fourth Uncle Huo, I'm afraid it won't help." Zhao Youju said calmly.

The more angry he became, the calmer he became.

Seeing that Huo Chongcheng was still crying with self-blame on his face, Zhao Heju patted him on the shoulder again: "Chongcheng, the most important thing now is not self-pity, but revenge for Fourth Uncle Huo." Don't be sad, let's check the Zhuangzi up and down first. ”

Huo Chongcheng wiped his tears and was about to speak, when suddenly the voice of his servant came from outside the door: "Sixth master, the little master is meeting guests......"

"Visitors? I don't even care about the elders who mourn, I want to see who he will be! With this hoarse voice, a person broke in, and the little guy who was blocking the door was pushed and stumbled by him, Zhao Youju frowned, and Zhao Ziyue immediately blocked in front of him.

"It's just a fart child...... the man was full of impatience, and after coming in and seeing Zhao Youju, he said rudely, and then turned to Huo Chongcheng with a straight face: "Chongcheng, now that the family is in mourning, how can you still have the heart to play with other children?" You are so ignorant, how can I rest assured that I am an uncle? ”

Huo Chongcheng pouted, as if he wanted to talk back to him, but Zhao Heju coughed, he looked back at Zhao Heju, and saw Zhao Heju shaking his head slightly, so he lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Got it." ”

"Why don't you get out of here? You are a filial son, and you have to give a big gift to the guests who come to mourn! The man who claimed to be his uncle cheered, and then turned to Zhao Youju: "You little guy, go to your own house to play, we have something to do with Zhuangzi, go quickly!" ”

Zhao Heju arched his hand: "I came to mourn for my mother." ”

Hearing this, the man who claimed to be his uncle was stunned, and then said: "Since it is a condolence, why not go to the mourning hall and stay in this wing room?" ”

"Chongcheng, lead me to the mourning hall." Zhao and Ju gave Huo Chongcheng a look, Huo Chongcheng understood, so he stretched out his hand to pull him, and the two walked out, the man who claimed to be Huo Chongcheng's uncle wanted to follow, but was squeezed by Zhao Zi and almost hit the door. He was just about to have a seizure, and Zhao Zi said immediately saluted: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." ”

The man saw that Zhao Ziyue's expression didn't seem to be fake, and it was at this special time, so it was not easy to attack, so he just glared.

followed Huo Chongcheng to the mourning hall, someone had already presented a crown, and after asking Zhao and Ju to be juniors, they put on a white hat for him. Zhao and Ju knelt on the futon and kowtowed three times, although Huo Zuoyu had calculated Yuzhang Villa, but he helped more, plus it was Huo Chongcheng's father, these heads could not be knocked down. Huo Chongcheng also knelt down to return the salute when he kowtowed, and Zhao Youju still had a futon, but he had to kneel on the ground.

"Please mourn." After the salute, Zhao and Ju pulled Huo Chongcheng up, and the self-proclaimed uncle looked behind him and wanted to come up, but was stopped by a woman, pulled aside and didn't know what to say, the man turned his head and glared at another man, and the two looked at each other angrily.
