Chapter Twenty-Four: The Marquis of Peace
"When the lord accompanied the boy to the Little Spirit Buddha Temple, he happened to be on the mountain. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info," Hu Zhou continued.
When Xu Cheng heard this, he understood what Hu Zhou wanted to say, he had no friendship with Zhu Qian, and the so-called chance was just a side of the fate in the Xiaoling Buddha Temple.
"Your Highness is kind-hearted." When Xu Chengneng said this, he naturally agreed with Hu Zhou's statement, and no longer hid Zhu Qian's identity.
"I guessed the identity of His Royal Highness, and when I met again in the Shake Niang Pavilion, I eagerly expressed my intentions, thinking of taking a shortcut to someone above." The chance encounter with Zhu Qian and the conversation between him are not a secret, Hu Zhou is telling the truth.
"Then why did you break this tacit agreement so quickly?" Xu Cheng asked.
Listening to Xu Cheng's words, there was no dissatisfaction, and Hu Zhou was a little emotional. Because this tacit understanding means that Hu Zhou pretended to be in the name of Zhu Qian, pulled the flag of Xu Cheng, and borrowed the strength of both parties to achieve his own interests.
"Because of the change, there was a loss of someone in the house." Hu Zhou's voice was slightly astringent.
Xu Cheng stared at him, and said lightly: "If you want to report to the official, just go directly to the government office."
Without avoiding Xu Cheng's gaze, Hu Zhou finally swallowed the word imprisonment in his throat, and was embarrassed: "It's His Highness's person." I don't know how to inform Your Highness, but I would like to ask your Excellency to help convey it. ”
Xu Cheng was a little disappointed, and then felt funny, laughing at the fact that he had been disturbed by the affairs of the court in the past few days, and lost his composure, and responded gently: "This official has written it down."
Hu Zhou hurriedly thanked him, but did not say goodbye.
"Anything else?" This time, Xu Cheng was really a little curious.
Hu Zhou hesitated for a moment and said seriously: "People should be very important."
"Okay."
After Hu Zhou left, Xu Cheng turned around and looked at the rare authentic Qianshu landscape, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Because he didn't meet anyone at the beginning, the message was brought to Zhu Qian's place in the evening, and it seemed like an insignificant matter from beginning to end. It was also this casualness that inadvertently saved Hu Zhou's life.
When Lin Bao appeared in the courtyard, Hu Zhouzheng criticized Li Zhi for being absent-minded, and the taste of dinner was too light, as if he had forgotten to put salt.
Lin Bao didn't bother to care about his big heart, so he just coughed.
When Hu Zhou saw the visitor, he immediately said kindly, "Have you eaten?"
Lin Bao, who was about to answer subconsciously, was indignant at the moment, and said in his heart If you hadn't lost people, how would I have rushed to this broken house with an empty stomach, and said unhappily: "You are here to eat?"
"How do people get lost?" When questioning, Lin Bao's displeasure in his heart had already risen to a new level.
The answer to the question was obviously thought about more than once, and Hu Zhou replied without hesitation: "When I came back, I was already lost." The visitor seemed to be very familiar with the environment, and went straight underground, cutting the chains and taking them away. ”
"Didn't Childe order you to look at this house?" Lin Bao's voice suddenly shrivelled.
Hu Zhou said that people may be familiar with the environment of the house and have no intention of shirking responsibility. Since it was Lin Baolai and did not mean to let Hu Zhou meet Zhu Qian, Hu Zhou speculated that Chen Qing might be important, but he was afraid that the degree was limited, and his heart was a little calm, "The top priority is to find the prisoners who are imprisoned underground, and I hope you will go back to report to the son, and give Hu Zhou a chance to make up for his mistakes." After that, no matter how the son punished, Hu Zhou had no complaints. ”
Zhu Qian once said that if Hu Zhou told Xu Cheng about the prisoner, he would kill him. Judging from Xu Cheng's attitude towards speaking, Hu Zhou obviously didn't say a word. Although he lost it, Zhu Qian was not angry, on the contrary, he began to feel that Hu Zhou had no problem in terms of loyalty.
Of course, another part of the reason why Zhu Qian is not angry is that Chen Qing is not his person.
Before coming out, Lin Bao guessed that Hu Zhou would not be severely punished for this, but he had never liked Hu Zhou, and Lin Bao was not ready to make him feel at ease, so he said disdainfully: "Looking for someone, just rely on your three melons and two dates?" When you look all over the clouds, will it be ten days or a year, and Childe will be waiting for you all the time? ”
"Money makes the devil grind." Hu Zhou said calmly.
Lin Bao frowned, "You mean, the bounty?" ”
"Under the heavy reward, a brave man can be scattered, and the silver can also be bought for gossip." Hu Zhou hesitated a little, "It's just that in this way, I'm afraid it won't be easy to avoid Lord Xu's eyes and ears." ”
Lin Bao naturally knew why he wanted to avoid Xu Cheng, such a prisoner was always troublesome to explain. As for why only Xu Cheng was avoided, it was because only Lord Xu knew that the people of the Zhu Mansion were lost.
"The former prince said that you continue to take care of the house, and you don't have to do anything else." Lin Bao commanded coldly.
Ping'an Hou Mansion.
The only mansion in Yunbian City that has been transgressed in the specifications.
In the early years, the folds of impeachment were reported like snowflakes, piled up on the table of the palace Weiyang Palace, and Emperor Zhu Feng ignored them for a while, and the number of folds submitted on the table still did not decrease but increased.
When Queen Yunying of Zhou was not married, she was the proud daughter of the Zhou family. It is rumored that there was a traveling Taoist who passed through the Zhou Mansion and saw that there was a great glow in the sky above the mansion, and concluded that Zhou Wen, who was only three years old at the time, must be the mother of the world.
In a word, it is a prophecy.
Empress Wen is virtuous and virtuous, loves the people like a son, and even with the people of Lanzi, none of them have a bad feeling for the Qinghe Zhou clan.
Among them, only Zhou Wenliang, the uncle of the country, is excluded.
Zhu lives in the deep palace, and he also knows that this uncle's "evil deeds" are really too many to write. But for Zhu Qian, this is a family matter or a family ugly, because when he knew that there was a person like Chen Qing in that house, he didn't do anything superfluous.
I didn't even ask a word. He asked his uncle for a house, and he helped him take care of the people who might have offended him, but Zhu Qian didn't feel troublesome or inappropriate. That's why I didn't think it was impossible to hand it over to Hu Zhou. People who can be handed over to him at will, Zhu Qian doesn't think he is important. But if Hu Zhou told Xu Cheng about the matter, it would be inappropriate to let the ugliness of the family be publicized.
Now people have lost it, so Zhu Qian came over and told his uncle.
It's just that seeing that he didn't seem to be able to digest the news he brought for a long time, Zhu Qian was a little uncertain and said, "Uncle, that person is very important?"
Ping'an Hou has long since lost the handsome appearance of his youth, as if he had been hollowed out by wine, his eyes were hollow, his waist was already bloated, he rubbed his cheeks, and pretended to be relaxed: "Uncle just didn't expect that it has been almost thirty years in a blink of an eye, and there are still people thinking about him."
didn't care about thirty or forty years, Zhu Qian didn't care and said, "Uncle doesn't blame Qian'er."
Looking at the familiar smell between Zhu Qian's silhouettes, Ping'an Hou took out the posture that an elder should have: "When do you plan to return to the palace?"
"I'll be back after a few more plays." Zhu Qian's tone was extremely perfunctory.
Ping'an Hou laughed and no longer asked how many times it was.
Zhu Qian felt his uncle's love for him, and with a cousin who couldn't beat him with eight poles, it was inevitably far-fetched in the emperor's family, but he never thought about it.
The truth is very simple for Hou Zhou Wenliang to say.
