Hu Xiaotian took three steps and made two steps, came to Hu Tianxiong and grabbed his arm and said with a smile: "Brother Hu, why are you here?" Hu Tianxiong has a good position among the many servants of the Hu family, and he is deeply favored by Hu Buwei, so he was selected as a personal guard, but all important things will always be entrusted to him, although so his identity is still a subordinate, Hu Xiaotian called him Brother Hu, obviously gave him enough face, Hu Tianxiong listened to it, and his heart was also warm and a little moved.

Hu Tianxiong actually arrived in Xichuan earlier than Hu Xiaotian, because Hu Xiaotian's robbery of Tang Qingxuan spread all over the city, Hu Buwei was worried that the rumors would affect the marriage relationship between the Hu family and the Li family, so he specially repaired a letter and asked Hu Tianxiong to rush to Xizhou day and night, meet Li Tianheng, the founding prince of Xichuan, and tell him the details of the incident, which shows that Hu Buwei attaches great importance to this marriage. After Hu Tianxiong finished his work in Xichuan, he wanted to return to the capital, but he received news from Hu Buwei and asked him to go to Qingyun County to see Hu Xiaotian's situation after taking office.

When Hu Xiaotian heard Hu Tianxiong say this, he couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart, it seems that his father still can't rest assured of himself.

Liang Dazhuang also stood aside happily, and Hu Xiaotian said: "Da Zhuang, don't stand stupidly, hurry up and go to Hongyan Tower to set up a seat, let's have a good drink at noon." ”

"Okay!" Liang Dazhuang hurriedly went out.

Hu Xiaotian took Hu Tianxiong's arm and asked him to sit down in the courtyard, although the courtyard was not big, it could be cleaned up. Before Hu Xiaotian came back, Hu Tianxiong had already learned from Liang Dazhuang about the twists and turns of the young master's journey from the capital to Qingyun, Liang Dazhuang naturally exaggerated again, but the matter was basically explained, Hu Tianxiong was also quite surprised by the young master's adaptability, after all, the previous sixteen years of stupid experience had too deep an impression on these people in Hu Mansion, and now Hu Tianxiong can't fully accept it, how can a fool suddenly become a very smart character.

Hu Tianxiong said: "Young master, I went to Xizhou this time, and the master of the in-laws asked you many times." ”

Hu Xiaotian had a headache when he heard this. Li Tianheng's daughter is ugly and paralyzed, with such a son-in-law as himself, he naturally picked up the treasure, if he knows that he has arrived in Qingyun, wouldn't it be troublesome, seeing such a good son-in-law, maybe he will immediately send someone to kidnap him and have a cave room with his daughter, he said in a low voice: "Does he know that I came to Qingyun?" ”

Hu Tianxiong shook his head and said, "The master has specially explained. This matter must be hidden from him, young master, rest assured, the master of the in-laws is sitting in Xizhou, how can he pay attention to the affairs of Qingyun? ”

Hu Xiaotian also thinks that he has a point, Xichuan is a vast land and a fertile land. Xizhou is the political and business center of Xichuan, the most prosperous place in the southwest, looking at the hundreds of small cities like Qingyun in Xichuan, how could Li Tianheng pay attention to this small city in a remote mountainous area, not to mention that the father specially greeted the officials and concealed his identity information, I don't think Li Tianheng would know about it.

Hu Tianxiong said: "I went to Xizhou this time to gain a lot of knowledge. The old man of the in-law family is really a generation of heroes, his fierce generals are like clouds, there are many generals, and the people of Xichuan live and work in peace and contentment. ”

Hu Xiaotianxin said that he would be bullish and do my again? I want to marry his daughter and not him, besides, he is a feudal official, and my father is not bad. Hubu Shangshu, the Minister of Finance of Dakang, the highest official in charge of Dakang's money and grain, my background is not as good as his daughter? Hu Tianxiong said that he didn't care about anything for a long time, he coughed and interrupted Hu Tianxiong's words, and asked in a low voice: "Have you ever seen Miss Li when you went to Xizhou this time?" ”

Hu Tianxiong smiled: "Young master." Miss Li is raised in a deep boudoir, how can I have a chance to see her? However, I was fortunate to meet Li Honghan, the son of the Li family, in Xizhou this time, who was a heroic figure with a dignified appearance, and his martial arts and wisdom were outstanding. He is one of the best generals of the young generation of Dakang. ”

Hu Xiaotian scoffed, I haven't seen a few heroes and heroes of Lao Tzu, but Lao Tzu heroes and bastards abound, if it weren't for him who came to this world by mistake, Hu Buwei's son wouldn't have been demented for the rest of his life.

It is no accident that Hu Tianxiong can get Hu Buwei's trust, he is not only strong in martial arts, but also good at observing words and feelings, and he knows how much this young master's heart knots are, and said in a low voice: "Young master, I don't think the rumors may be credible, even if Miss Li is not a peerless beauty, her appearance is not as unbearable as the legend." ”

Hu Xiaotian said coldly: "You haven't seen it again, how can you know?" ”

Hu Tianxiong said: "I think the son of the Li family is handsome, and his sister should not be much worse." ”

Hu Xiaotian sighed and said: "It should have been a little beautiful, but it's a pity that this Li Wuwu had smallpox when he was a child, gave birth to a face of hemp, and when he was ten years old, he had a sudden illness and his legs were paralyzed, do you want such a woman to be your wife?" ”

Hu Tian's ambition said yes, don't be a fool, if he becomes the son-in-law of the founding prince of Xichuan, it is equivalent to a fish jumping into the dragon gate, not to mention that his daughter is extremely ugly, even if she is old and stupid, what does it matter. He was thinking about it in his heart, but Hu Xiaotian looked at him with a pair of sharp eyes like a knife, as if he had seen through his thoughts.

Hu Tianxiong's old face was hot, the young master's vision is really a thief, he actually has a bit of the demeanor of the master, I am afraid it is not easy to hide anything from him, it is really a tiger father without a dog, from what I saw before, to the qiē described by Liang Dazhuang just now, if it is true, this young master's skills and scheming can be regarded as outstanding among the younger generation. Hu Tianxiong said: "Young master, you really killed me, what kind of identity does Miss Li have, she is naturally compatible with the young master." ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "Scold me, I am suitable to find an ugly and paralyzed woman as a wife?" ”

Hu Tianxiong said: "Young master, in fact, everything should also be thought of in a good way, with your identity, you are destined to have three wives and four concubines, from ancient times to the present, you have paid attention to the words of your parents' matchmakers, this original match you or don't go against the will of the master, and you will not be up to yourself to accept concubines in the future?" ”

Hu Xiaotian shook his head, he didn't expect Hu Tianxiong to have so many flowery intestines, he sighed and said: "I am an upright person, and I would rather be broken than broken." ”

Hu Tianxiong persuaded: "Young master, you still have to be more considerate of the master's difficulties. ”

Hu Xiaotian said: "He is in charge of marrying the Li family, not for the sake of political interests, if you don't say it, I understand it very well." ”

Hu Tianxiong was also inconvenient to say anything, he diverted the topic and said: "Young master, I remembered something, this time my in-laws asked me to bring you a gift." ”

Hu Xiaotian heard that there was a gift to receive, and he was also curious, and followed Hu Tianxiong to the room, Hu Tianxiong opened his bag and took out a dagger, a black shark skin sheath, an ebony silver stopper, and an ivory handle, at first glance, the appearance is not unusual, but when he pulled out the dagger, a compelling cold air diffused, and the bright light reflected Hu Xiaotian subconsciously blinked, held the dagger in his hand, and gently planted it towards the wenge wood tabletop below, and the blade seemed to penetrate the tabletop without hindrance. Even if Hu Xiaotian has no knowledge of weapons, he knows that this dagger is definitely a rare weapon, and it is best to use it for self-defense.

His eyes fell on the scroll on the side: "What is this?" ”

Hu Tianxiong said: "A pair of words that Master Li gave to the master." ”

Hu Xiaotian smiled: "Open it and take a look." ”

Hu Tianxiong slowly unfolded the painting, Hu Xiaotian didn't look at it, and was stunned when he saw it, but he saw that it was written on it - Nanqiaotou Erdu is like a shuttle, weaving the splendid scenery in the river. A tower at the end of the west bank is like a pen, writing straight to the heavens.

This couplet is when he first came to Qingyun to meet the old fisherman out of the upper couplet, he responded with the next couplet, and used this couplet to impress the old fisherman, so that he was able to cross the river for free, Hu Xiaotian looked at this couplet in a daze, and a lot of cold sweat had broken out on his back, he thought that few people knew about his coming to the southwest border, but when he saw the couplet, he immediately understood that Li Tianheng had already known everything about his movements. There must be an extremely close relationship between the old fisherman and Li Tianheng, he waited on the bank of the Tongji River in advance, which led to this couplet, at that time Hu Xiaotian wondered why a rural fisherman could come up with such a subtle couplet, and now he knows the answer, the old fisherman is Li Tianheng's person at all.

Hu Tianxiong also noticed Hu Xiaotian's stunned expression, he didn't know the reason, and said in a low voice: "Young Master, what's wrong with you?" ”

Hu Xiaotian came back to his senses at this time, sighed and said: "The words are good, the couplets are better!" "This is tantamount to boasting about himself, speaking of the calligraphy on the couplet, the dragon flies and the phoenix dances, the Luan drifts and the phoenix, and the past era is definitely the level of calligraphy, Hu Xiaotian is not good at soft pens, but the hard pen calligraphy is so-so. He can still tell the difference between good and bad calligraphy, and this future father-in-law is really talented.

Hu Xiaotian didn't know whether his father had greeted Li Tianheng in advance about coming to Qingyun, or Li Tianheng found out by himself, if it was the latter, this future father-in-law was really not to be underestimated, but he didn't know if his talent in the couplet had impressed the old father-in-law? Thinking about it, even if Li Tianheng knew, it was not a bad thing, as his future father-in-law, it was impossible for him not to support himself, which means that no matter how big a leak he poked in Qingyun, someone would clean it up for him, could he act more unscrupulously in the future?
