(Ask for collection and recommendation)

Yuan Bin lived almost the same years as Zhao Ying outlived Hu Guiyang, and for him, the novelty of this world was rarer than the lice on the emperor's body, and nothing could surprise or surprise him.

"Demon?" Yuan Bin asked rhetorically word by word, and then said with a smile: "In front of Zhao Ying, you are often so coquettish?" ”

"Spoiled? I'm not ......"

Yuan Bin waved his hand and got up slowly, and his entourage immediately came over to help.

"Zhao Ying was once my right-hand man." Yuan Bin is old, and in the face of all problems, he can find answers from past experience, "To be honest, I don't like him, Zhao Ying is too stubborn, often inflexible, often embarrassing me in front of His Majesty and colleagues, sometimes he is like you, running directly in front of me, asking for this and that, saying some strange things, completely ignoring whether I want to listen to it or not, whether I can do it." ”

Yuan Bin trembled and walked towards the door with the support of his entourage, and Hu Guiyang had to follow behind, not understanding what Yuan Bin meant when he mentioned his father-in-law.

"These are nothing, there is one thing that I can't stand the most, Zhao Ying doesn't want to be promoted, he is only a hundred households until he dies, you all think that the court doesn't know people and refuses to promote him, right?"

"Uh, we all thought that our father-in-law didn't find the real demon fairy, which embarrassed Nanji, so we ......"

"That's nonsense, Nansi's people are not fools, and the clues that they are really interested in will not be handed over to Zhao Ying at all. Slow down, go and call the sedan chair. The latter sentence was said to the entourage, Yuan Bin had already walked out of the door and stood under the corridor, just a few steps and a few words, which had already made him gasp.

The entourage went to call the sedan chair, and Hu Guiyang had no choice but to come over and support Lord Yuan.

Yuan Bin continued: "Zhao Ying's merits over the years are enough to be promoted to command, I wanted to ask for an official for him several times, but he refused, preferring to ask for a reward, I said to share the credit with you righteous sons, he didn't want to, a few of you Jinyi guards, or I insisted on coming, according to Zhao Ying's meaning, there will be no one." ”

"My father-in-law didn't tell us that."

"Of course, you are ordinary people who want to be promoted, but Zhao Ying is a strange person, who only wants to catch thieves, and doesn't want to be promoted, so I can't control it, so I have to stay polite." The sedan chair came, Yuan Bin motioned to the entourage and the sedan chair man to wait for a while, and removed his arm without Hu Guiyang's support, "Even so, Zhao Ying and I still cooperate seamlessly, he is outside to catch the demon thief, I will ensure that he has no worries in front of His Majesty, do you know why?" ”

"Because my father-in-law has done many great things?"

Yuan Bin nodded, "Zhao Ying's credit is the credit of Nansi, Jinyiwei, and mine, which is enough to cover all the embarrassment he brought me." I don't care how fierce the hound barks, as long as it can bring back its prey, Zhao Ying is my minions, the sharper the better, if he knows how to act at the opportunity, I don't dare to trust him. ”

Yuan Bin summoned his entourage, took the entourage's shoulders and prepared to get into the sedan chair, and finally said, "What did you bring?" The cause of Zhao Ying's death is still a mystery, and now even the body is gone, alas. ”

Lord Yuan got into the sedan chair and left, of course Hu Guiyang couldn't stay, and hurriedly followed out of the yamen.

Outside the gate, the sedan chair drove away, Yuan Bin's entourage stayed, took out a folded paper from his sleeve, opened it and let Hu Guiyang take a look, and immediately put it away again.

Although it was only a glimpse, Hu Guiyang still saw it clearly, it was a letter of appointment, appointing him as the Yanshan avant-garde test hundred.

"Within ten days, today doesn't count, starting tomorrow, within ten days, take it to Yanshan Qianwei to report, you are trying a hundred households, if you can't get it, you are nothing."

When they met for the first time a few days ago, the entourage didn't like Hu Guiyang, and now they are even more unabashed, "Zhao Ying doesn't want to be promoted, and you have to be a hundred, you are not qualified to make his mistakes." ”

Hu Guiyang really didn't know what to say, so he had to raise his arm and pat it on the shoulder of his entourage, "I didn't ask ...... for advice."

As if stabbed by a sword, the attendant jumped back, dusted his shoulder twice, glared at Hu Guiyang angrily, and turned to chase after his master's sedan chair.

Hu Guiyang glanced at his palm, found nothing dirty, shrugged his shoulders, and laughed at himself: "I'm starting to become a demon now?" ”

He didn't get anything from Yuan Bin, and even the promised 100 households became a castle in the air, but Hu Guiyang was not disappointed at all, and even hummed a little song while walking on the road, he didn't have hope, he just wanted to come here to test the truth.

It was getting dark, and he quickened his pace, the He family lived outside the city, and they had to go out before the city gates were closed.

The time was just right, Hu Guiyang followed the last group of people out of the city, walked not far away, and there was a clear retreat shout behind him.

The streets and alleys outside the city are narrow and chaotic, and there are many households, but at night they are more lively, although there are also officers and soldiers patrolling, most of them turn a blind eye, and no one will prevent the residents from going out at night unless the boss strictly investigates.

Hu Guiyang doesn't go out of the city often, so he immediately liked the lively atmosphere here, strolling around, and deliberately took a little detour, just to chase the crowd.

There are many residents in Baoqing Hutong, few shops, it is relatively deserted at night, there is no light, the street is uneven, Hu Guiyang has come once, or walked deep and shallow.

In the entire alley, only the lantern hangs in front of the gate of the He family, and from a distance, it looks like a ghost fire floating in the air.

"It's so late, it's not a good time to visit." After Hu Guiyang said this, he raised his fist and slammed the door.

"Who, knocking on the door in the middle of the night, cheating on the corpse, don't want to live?" The voice inside was very easy to identify, it was He Wu Madman.

The door opened, and He Wu came out with his fist raised, and when he saw Hu Guiyang, he was stunned for a moment, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Borrow your latrine." Hu Guiyang clutched his stomach, "Hurry up." ”

He Wu madman hurriedly got out of the way, "There is no toilet, only a clean bucket." ”

"Anything goes, just be fast."

He Mansion is much larger than Hu Guiyang's house, He Wu Madman took him to a small house in the southeast, "Go in the left hand side, see it clearly, build it after use, and someone will come to collect it tomorrow." ”

After Hu Guiyang entered, he finally relaxed, and felt that the whole person was floating, "Straw paper!" ”

"There are on the side, touch them yourself, don't use too much, there are counts." He Wu replied at the door that he had become much more stingy in his own home.

Hu Guiyang came out, "I'm sorry, I suddenly felt it on the road." ”

He Wu Madman understood very well, "You have held on long enough, I have squatted during the day." ”

The two cherished each other and nodded to each other.

He Wu Madman changed his face quickly, suddenly grabbed Hu Guiyang's clothes, and said viciously: "What is the purpose of your coming to my house? ”

"Etiquette is still exchanged, you have been to my house, I will naturally go to your house to see."

"Haven't you been here? Let my dad count your life, and if you don't want to give your name, my dad will recognize you at a glance. ”

"That's right, so the last visit was not formal enough, and this time I'm here as Hu Guiyang."

"Empty-handed?"

Hu Guiyang glanced back at the net bucket room, "Empty-handed." ”

"No, there is no such thing as you."

"It depends on who asks whom, now it is your He family who wants to recruit me as a son-in-law, so it is up to you to prepare gifts, the meal during the day is the beginning, what is next?"

"Still?" He Wu's hand grasping the placket of his clothes had already relaxed, and then he clenched it again, and his other hand was clenched into a fist, "Do you want this?" I'm not tired of beating me for an hour. ”

He Wu was short and short, but Hu Guiyang couldn't twist him, so he simply didn't resist, "It's better to ask Ling Zun first, and listen to what he said, or your sister, who in your He family is in charge." ”

"Who is Ling Zun?"

"Your father is a million."

He Wu still didn't let go, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Dad, to beat or not to beat?" ”

"Please come in!" There was a sound in the hall in the distance.

He Wu Maniac dragged Hu Guiyang to the hall, and another voice came from there, "I said, 'Please come in.'" ”

Only then did He Wu let go of his hand and said in a low voice: "To be honest, every time I see you, my hands are itchy, and one day I have to beat you, otherwise I won't be happy." ”

"There are many opportunities, don't worry."

He Wu is a strange person in the eyes of the neighbors, but at this time, he is so normal that he is confused, "Maybe you are really a monster." ”

The last time Hu Guiyang came to tell fortunes in a hut, this was the first time he had entered the hall.

Different from the halls of ordinary people, the He family is more like a small hall for the gods, with incense cases and Taoist Sanqing, and the walls are full of statues of gods, and Hu Guiyang can only recognize a very small part.

The lights were lit in the house, the cigarettes were filled, and the owner of the He family, He Wanwan, was standing in front of the desk to offer incense, bowed three times, turned around after inserting incense, and smiled at Hu Guiyang.

The two met once, but they didn't talk much, Hu Guiyang didn't talk much, and He Million was alarmist, claiming that fortune tellers can "kill people in their dreams", and it is only formal when they meet again.

"In Xia He Tai, people call him million, although he is called million, but there is no million assets, see and laugh."

"In Xia Hu Guiyang, known as ...... Hu Guiyang, there are no osmanthus trees and osmanthus flowers at home, and there are no treasures worth publicizing, which is ridiculous and ridiculous. ”

"Haha, please be seated."

Hu Guiyang sat unceremoniously on one side of the incense case, and He Million sat on the other side, and said to his son, "Look at the tea." ”

"Dad, don't be so polite, this kid is lazy and lazy, and he is very thick-skinned, as soon as you are polite, he will live here and not leave."

"I can't ask for it." He Million smiled at Hu Guiyang, and then glared at his son, "Don't go quickly, invite your sister by the way." ”

"The matter hasn't been settled yet, how can my sister come out to see him?"

"Go."

He Wu was somewhat jealous of his father, so he had to retreat and muttered to himself.

He Million arched his hand and said: "The humble family of the He family, acting recklessly, not knowing etiquette, if there is any disturbance, look at Hu Gongzi Haihan." ”

"It's okay, you guys are reckless, I'll be free."

"Okay, it's best to be casual." He Million smiled all over his face, and seemed to be very satisfied with this future son-in-law.

He Wu came in with a tea tray, "My sister didn't come, she said it, and it's useless to see it now." ”

He Million took a cup of tea first, "I'm sorry, the little girl has always been pampered, and I can't force it." ”

Hu Guiyang took another cup of tea, and when he saw He Wu's madman's expression, he immediately decided not to touch a sip, "It's okay, the person I'm looking for is not Ling Ai, but Your Excellency." ”

"Oh, what's the matter with me?"

"I think you know my stepfather."

He Million smiled and said nothing.

"I think you are very similar to the person my father-in-law has been looking for, after listening to your introduction just now, I am even more sure that Your Excellency is Liang Tiegong, who self-immolated in Broken Tengxia back then, right?"
