Chapter 321: The Aftermath
Night is approaching, and the officials in the front yard come to the backyard one after another, in groups of three or five, whispering to each other, indicating that they are not dumb, and they are just unwilling to talk to Hu Guiyang before.
There are too many people, and the courtyard is too small, as the number of strangers on the side of the government is increasing, more than 30 people from the rivers and lakes began to feel oppressed, originally divided into three groups, and gradually gathered into a group, standing in front of the main house.
Xiao Killing Bear is the biggest, and he is always the first to be unbearable, he raised his head and roared, and walked towards the crowd opposite, Guan Mutong and the others hurriedly spoke to stop it, but Xiao Killing Bear was the same as if he hadn't heard it, "Such a small place, is it to suffocate people to death?" ”
There were forty or fifty people in the official palace, all of whom were equipped with knives at their waists, and a few people did not have one, but none of them used a knife, and their hands were either fists or palms, secretly accumulating strength, and staring at the giant vigilantly.
Xiao Killing Xiong didn't look at anyone, and walked straight forward, and several government strangers directly opposite him hesitated for a moment to make way for him.
Xiao Kill Bear came to the base of the wall and punched out, punching out a hole. The object of his hatred is not people, but walls.
The official stranger looked at it for a while and began to imitate, for them, this is not only a tearing down the wall and breaking the house, but also a kind of catharsis.
Hu Guiyang had already moved a stool out of the bedroom, and was sitting in front of the door to watch the excitement, but he didn't expect the first excitement to be this, "Hey, that's the main hall, where Zhao Zhai spent the most money at the beginning!" ”
No one listened to him, not even a few strangers came over to help, like a swarm of energized ants, and the row of houses was nothing more than a few tender leaves about to be gnawed away.
Hu Guiyang was surprised for a moment and shrugged his shoulders, he couldn't stop it, and he wasn't even qualified to stop it - Zhao Zhai didn't belong to him.
"There are houses inside and outside the capital that need to be demolished, and the owners will pay the wages, but you just demolish here, but no one is willing to give you money for this."
Jiang Dongxia, who was standing next to him, said: "The place is indeed a little smaller, and it is very reluctant to accommodate so many strangers, and it is not enough to accommodate Li Xingtian and Prince Dan to compete in martial arts, and it is rare for Xiao to kill Xiong to be smart once." ”
Hu Guiyang laughed twice, and watched as several houses opposite turned into ruins, and large bricks and trees were thrown to both sides.
Once they have done things side by side, even if it is a very inconspicuous little thing, the hostility between each other will be reduced, and when the Jianghu strangers retreat to their original places, the official strangers will nod to them, and even give them away.
"Xiao is indeed smart to kill bears." Hu Guiyang said in surprise.
The official alien retreated to the wall at the other end, and the shadows blended together.
Hu Guiyang smiled: "It's better to light a fire in the middle and see it clearly......"
"Good idea." Xiao Killing, who had just walked back, immediately turned around and walked to the middle again, and said loudly: "Pile all the wood in the middle, let's light the fire!" ”
The bonfire soon burst into flames, first billowing black smoke and then turning into pure red flames, rising into the sky.
Such flames could be seen from afar, but no one came to inquire, and the entire capital seemed to turn its back and resolve not to interfere with everything that happened here.
Hu Guiyang looked at the firelight, "When I was a child, I always had the idea of setting a fire at home, and today it finally came true, but unfortunately I didn't do it." ”
"Captain Hu doesn't like it here?" Jiang Dongxia asked.
"I like it, just because I like it so much, I always want to do some destruction."
Jiang Dongxia was stunned for a moment, laughed twice, and vaguely passed.
Hu Guiyang suddenly remembered that he still had a dog, and he hadn't seen it for several days, so he got up and shouted, "Flatbread!" ”
There was no response, Xiao Killing Xiong just walked back, "Where did the pie come from?" There are only a few small snacks that are stuffed between the teeth. ”
"That yellow dog of mine once wore a jade pendant around his neck."
"Oh, that stupid dog, every time you take Jindan, you have to smell the stench on its body, it should be dead."
"It must have run away." Hu Guiyang muttered that the flatbread is extremely sensitive to danger and will never stay in danger.
A voice suddenly came from the opposite side, "Hu Guiyang, someone is looking for you!" ”
Hu Guiyang was stunned, walked to the front yard, reached the bonfire, turned to the two followers and said, "I'm looking for it." ”
Guan Mutong and Jiang Dongxia smiled at the same time, and always called Hanako and said, "The two of us will be Captain Hu's followers." ”
"I don't need to ......," Hu Guiyang understood, "Zhao Aqi said it?" Well, Gu Zhongxian may want to use me to transfer divine power, although you 'don't believe it', but you can't let it go, right? ”
The two just laughed, one flattering, the other subtle, and neither answered.
Hu Guiyang didn't care, and bypassed the bonfire and came to the official mansion, "Who is looking for me?" ”
A voice replied, "Outside the gate." ”
Hu Guiyang walked again, followed by Guan Mutong and Jiang Dongxia.
"Flower lady!" Hu Guiyang didn't expect the visitor to be her, "Why are you here?" ”
"My stuff hasn't been moved here yet, why don't you let me in?"
Only then did Hu Guiyang notice that there were many people on the street, all of them were Jinyi guards, and many of them were riding horses, all staring at him with curious eyes.
"Come in, of course you can come in." Hu Guiyang looked at the two lieutenants behind the big lady flower.
The lieutenant walked away, and the lady entered the door, "What are you doing in the back?" Set fire to the house? ”
"The middle row of houses was demolished, and they lit fires."
"Why do you want to demolish the house? You don't care. ”
"Hehe, I'm afraid they'll tear me down."
"Hey, it turns out that you are also bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, what do you say are bold?"
"Don't dare to say it anymore."
Mrs. Hua entered a small room near the kitchen, packed her things and wrapped them, "I have already sent the people away, and there is still some silver left, which has been kept in your room." ”
"Hey, why haven't I seen it?" Hu Guiyang stood at the door with two "followers" and did not enter the house.
"Under the bed, find it yourself."
While nagging, the flower lady sorted out the items and made them into two burdens, feeling that it was almost over, she walked to the door and said to Guan Mutong and Jiang Dongxia: "I don't know the two of you, but you must have eaten the food I cooked." ”
The two nodded, and Guan Mutong smiled at everyone, "I have eaten, the cooking skills are excellent, and it is the best delicacy I have ever eaten in my life." ”
"Well, then you're welcome. My stupid brother is ignorant, and he harms others and himself every time, and I guess I won't be able to escape death tonight......"
"I don't have ......"
Hu Guiyang was about to defend himself, but was interrupted by Mrs. Hua, "I'm talking to a guest, don't interject." ”
Hu Guiyang really shut up, and Mrs. Hua continued: "But he is his own brother after all, I have to let him explain the aftermath and arrange the property or something." ”
Guan Mutong and Jiang Dongxia were stunned for a while, and finally came to their senses, retired together, and walked to the door of the second courtyard, where they could monitor the room, but they couldn't hear the words.
Mrs. Hua motioned for Hu Guiyang to enter the house, and then closed the door, "Don't mention Zhao Mansion, you still have a house elsewhere, right?" ”
"Yes. Do I really want to explain the aftermath? ”
"How sure are you that you'll survive tonight?" The flower lady asked rhetorically.
"I'm not sure, even if I get through tonight, the next few days won't be easy."
"That's it." Mrs. Hua took out the pen and paper from her sleeve, "I'm ready for you, if you die, leave the house and belongings to me, I will do a funeral for you, if there is a surplus, it will be distributed equally, there are many Zhao families, no one can share too much, it's better than nothing." ”
"The funeral can be simple." Hu Guiyang studied ink and wrote, "That's okay?" Don't need witnesses or anything? ”
"You just press the mudra, and I'll take care of the rest."
Hu Guiyang brushed and wrote, "I have a yellow dog ......"
"Flatbread, what a broken name, eat and drink at my place."
Hu Guiyang said with a smile: "Sure enough, it's a smart dog, please take good care of it, there is no need to distribute property, you can keep the dog." ”
"Hey, you're pretty good to dogs, and you've never been so generous to your relatives before. How much money can it cost to raise a dog? Eat leftovers as you like, don't count on big fish and meat. ”
Mrs. Hua even brought the ink, Hu Guiyang signed and pressed her handprint, and said blankly: "It's nothing, but I seem to be dying soon." ”
"You brought it all upon yourself." The flower lady picked up the paper with both hands, blew the ink on it, and then carefully folded it up and put it in her sleeve, "What else do you want to say?" ”
"It's gone."
"Okay, then it's up to me."
"Haven't you been talking?"
"Don't be poor, it was idle talk just now, but now it's the right thing. Well, I found that Shen Qianyuan, and he is still in Nancheng......"
"Mrs. Hua's family lives outside the city, and she is more familiar with the city than me, so she is really quick to find someone."
Mrs. Hua frowned, "What's this, dozens of daughters of the Zhao family, married almost all over the city, I live outside the city, but every time I enter the city, I have to walk around, of course I am more familiar than you." Do you want to listen or not? ”
Hu Guiyang shook his head, "There's no need, I'm looking for Shen Qianyuan to see Gu Zhongxian, I've already met this person." ”
Mrs. Hua was silent for a while, "You didn't think to notify me after meeting someone?" In order to find this Shen Qianyuan, I mobilized at least ten relatives. ”
"I'm sorry, but I didn't do it well."
"Forget it, I guess you won't be able to get out of this mansion."
"Hehe, it's already rare for you to come in."
"Thirty-nine speaks for me, so I can enter the alley."
"Shi Guida is also there?"
"Well, guarding the entrance of the alley, I asked him if he wanted to come in and see you, and he said there was nothing to see. Alas, their own brothers made such a fuss. ”
"It's right if he doesn't come, what if I can still live?"
"If there is really that case, I will immediately do a family business for you."
"Haha." Hu Guiyang laughed, his heart full of gratitude to the flower lady.
"There's a letter from the princess." Mrs. Hua has one more serious thing to say.
"What did she say?"
"Didn't say anything, let me pass this on." The flower lady took out a jade pendant from her purse, "What is this, is this a thing of love?" Do you dare to say that you have nothing to do with the princess? ”
Hu Guiyang took the jade pendant and approached the light to take a closer look.
It was an ordinary white jade pendant, with only a blush the size of a fingernail on the edge, like a blemish.
"It's not a promise, it's ...... Another person asked the princess to bring it to me. Hu Guiyang didn't mention the word emperor.
"What do you mean, it can save your life?"
"I don't know." Hu Guiyang still didn't understand the emperor's thoughts, only knew that this jade pendant must be unusual.
