Chapter 40: Wei Changhui, King of the North
Huang Xu and Zhao Xiaofeng entered Yao Dahong's residence, but found that Yao Dahong was not in the room, so where would Yao Dahong go? ?
"Da Hong," Zhao Xiaofeng shouted.
No response.
"Da Hong, Yao Da Hong." Huang Xu also shouted.
Still no response.
This is strange, Yao Dahong is not familiar with life in this palace, where will he go? Didn't he go to find a few of his brothers in life and death. But it stands to reason that he should not know the current situation of these people, so this is impossible.
Zhao Xiaofeng and Huang Xu called a few more times, but still no one responded, and searched all over the house again, but still didn't find any trace of Yao Dahong, Zuihou and the two came to the conclusion that Yao Dahong was not there for the time being, so what should they do, are they sitting here waiting for the rabbit, stupidly waiting for Yao Dahong to come back, or say that they will go out to find it, but where to find it. Just such a trivial matter, the two discussed, and they didn't discuss a perfect result, zuihou, decided to go back first, and Zhao Xiaofeng arranged for a person to wait for Yao Dahong's news here, as long as he came back, he directly asked him to meet Zhao Xiaofeng.
The two exited Yao Dahong's room disappointed and returned directly the same way. When they came to a fork in the road and were about to break up, suddenly there was a noise in the distance, and among them, there seemed to be a person's voice so familiar, but they couldn't remember who it was for a while.
"It's Yao Dahong, that's right, it should be Yao Dahong's voice in front." Huang Xu took the lead in saving this is Yao Dahong's voice.
"Then let's go and see what's going on." When Zhao Xiaofeng heard that it was Yao Dahong, he was also a little anxious, because after all, Yao Dahong was arranged by him to live here, and if something went wrong, he couldn't get out of it.
The two of them hurried towards the noisy spot. Just bypassed a corner, the two saw that a few people in front of them were forming a circle, surrounding another person in the middle, they walked into some, and found that the person who was surrounded by the circle was Yao Dahong, and Yao Dahong was shouting loudly, asking them weishenme to bully people so much, and these people responded that it was you who bullied, and when they said this, they were arrogant.
As soon as Huang Xu saw such a scene, he wanted to rush up immediately, but Zhao Xiaofeng next to him grabbed him, with a dignified face, Huang Xu felt strange, this Zhao Xiaofeng is also a person with status in the palace, what kind of person would make him so jealous, he couldn't help but be a little curious, so he looked forward with Zhao Xiaofeng's gaze, Huang Xu saw that there was a person standing not far from the human flesh circle, this person, silent, just stood there quietly looking at the noisy group of people in front of him, as if watching a play.
And Huang Xu observed carefully and found that this person had a square face, a burly figure, and was well-dressed, looking like he was in his thirties. Who could this person be? Huang Xu thought.
Just as Huang Xu was groaning, Zhao Xiaofeng on the side pulled Huang Xu's clothes and motioned for him to follow him, and then, he walked towards the person first, Huang Xu saw this, and could only follow Zhao Xiaofeng closely.
"Zhao Xiaofeng of the Eastern Prince's Mansion, see the prince." Zhao Xiaofeng approached the man, bowed and saluted respectfully.
Lord Wang, could it be Wei Changhui, the king of the north? Huang Xu was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect to see this North King under such circumstances.
"Lord Bei, this is the new housekeeper of our palace, named Huang Xu. Brother Huang, don't dare to see the Northern Prince." Zhao Xiaofeng pointed at Huang Xu and introduced.
"See the prince." Huang Xu is also an interesting person.
"You don't have to be polite. Mr. Zhao, I haven't seen you for many days, you look in good spirits" Wei Changhui said to Zhao Xiaofeng, it seems that the two must be very familiar.
"Thank you for your care, it's not passable. Forgive me for daring to ask, are you here to play chess with my prince today, or are you talking about the world with green plums and wine? Why don't you see your entourage?" After Zhao Xiaofeng finished speaking, he deliberately looked around.
"Haha, Mr. Zhao, you are so interesting, is it possible that I will only do these two things when I look for your prince?" After Wei Changhui finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Xiaofeng very seriously, as if he wanted to see how he answered.
It's bad, Zhao Xiaofeng thought to himself, he knew that this king of the north was narrow-minded and extremely difficult to get along with, he didn't expect him to be so faceless, and he was so embarrassed by a vassal of the palace regardless of his identity, if he looked at it from this point alone, he was indeed inferior to the king of the east. But no matter what you say, this person is also a prince, and he can't be offended, so it seems that he can only admit his mistake.
"Look, I really can't speak with this mouth, please forgive me." Zhao Xiaofeng patted his mouth lightly and said with a smile.
"Ha, ha, Mr. Zhao, this king is joking with you, I didn't expect you to take it seriously, we are all old acquaintances, why bother to be so serious." The king of the north laughed dryly twice before he spoke.
Damn, you still know that you are an old acquaintance with Lao Tzu, and you still scare your master like this, what a fickle immortal and not a small bastard, Zhao Xiaofeng has fucked this northern king many times in his heart, but on the surface, he is still full of smiles, and his mouth keeps saying, yes, yes, yes. If Huang Xu knew what Zhao Xiaofeng was thinking at this time, then he would definitely die of laughter. It's no wonder that this Zhao Xiaofeng can usually be said to be under one person and above hundreds of people in the palace, who dares to be disrespectful to him, but today he met this bastard North King, which made it difficult for him to step down.
"You are the newly recruited housekeeper of Dongwang, you look polite, you are a poor and sour talent, right? It's rumored out there how great you are, but when I see you today, I think it's a common thing." Wei Changhui finished teasing Zhao Xiaofeng and said to Huang Xu.
This North King, what a stinky mouth, how can he hurt people when he speaks, Huang Xu heard it, and he also scolded in his heart. He wanted to get angry right away, but when he turned his head and calmed down, he thought about it, why did he come here, at this moment, there was no reason to offend him, sooner or later he would clean him up. Now it's okay to think that he is farting, thinking of this, Huang Xu also accompanied the smiling face, explaining that it may be a misinformation outside, but in fact, he has no ability, but he is called a joke of the king of the north.
Seeing that the two people who were the most capable of the East Wangfu had been hit, the North King couldn't help but show a smug face, and he could finally make the East King lose a lot of face.
Idiot, Zhao Xiaofeng and Huang Xu both gave birth to a word in their hearts.
No wonder the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan does not have a high opinion of him, judging from his performance today, it is indeed not a cause for concern.
"Boys, strike early, clean up the person who dares to be rude to us, and we can go home." Seeing that Huang Xu and the others had been dressed properly, King Bei said to the group of people surrounding Yao Dahong.
"Yes, lord, boy, are you tied up, or do you need our brother to take action, if you are captured, you may still have a whole corpse, but if you dare to resist, you will be broken into pieces." The group of people surrounding Yao Dahong said to him with a smile. It is common to talk about a very bloody thing.
"Master Zhao, Brother Huang save me." After Yao Dahong saw Huang Xu and Zhao Xiaofeng, he seemed to have found two life-saving straws.
Yao Dahong's shout startled the people surrounding him, and they collectively turned their heads, wanting to see which thing with no eyes dared to spoil their good deeds, but when they saw the two people standing next to Wei Changhui, they hesitated a little, you think, the one who can stand with the prince of his own family must not be a small person, so they were also stunned there, and for a while, they didn't know how to deal with it.
"Why, you know this man." Wei Changhui asked.
"Yes, Lord Wang, he is a person from our palace, and he is also a person under Brother Huang." Zhao Xiaofeng said.
"Oh, there is such a thing, Steward Huang, is this your person?" Wei Changhui pointed at Yao Dahong, and then turned his gaze to Huang Xu.
Huang Xu still didn't react at all, he hadn't figured out that Weishenme Zhao Xiaofeng would say that Yao Dahong was the person below him on this occasion, if he directly said that Yao Dahong was the person of the East King, wouldn't this Wei Changhui be more likely to sell face to the East King? In fact, the reason why Zhao Xiaofeng wants to say this, he also has his own considerations, on the one hand, he doesn't want to cause a direct estrangement between the East King and the North King because of a small Yao Dahong, on the other hand, he can be regarded as fulfilling his promise in advance and giving Yao Dahong to Huang Xu, but it is too bad to give it. As for how Huang Xu solves the current predicament and how to get Yao Dahong, then he, Zhao Xiaofeng, can only look and see, unable to do anything, everything depends on Huang Xu himself. If Huang Xu knew this true thought in Zhao Xiaofeng's heart, then maybe he had the heart to kill Zhao Xiaofeng.
However, according to Huang Xu's personality, even if Zhao Xiaofeng does not take this matter on Huang Xu's head, Huang Xu will come forward, not to mention, this person in danger may be one of his most powerful subordinates in the future.
"Lord Wang, this person is indeed my subordinate, I don't know why I collided with Lord Wang, please forgive me, I am here to apologize to you, I hope Lord Wang, you don't care about villains." Huang Xu lowered his posture as much as possible and said to the North King.
"Steward Huang, it's not that this king doesn't give you face, it's really that this person is too arrogant, if he doesn't punish him slightly, then how can this king deal with himself in the future, and what kind of face does he have to control his subordinates. If Steward Huang is in the position of this king, what do you think should be done? Wei Changhui's words were aggressive.
"Does the prince have to take his life? I don't know what big mistake he made" Huang Xu was really a little angry, even if Yao Dahong was wrong, but if he thought about it, he would not die if he thought about it, not to mention that this is the East King's Mansion, and the North King has done too much.
"It's only to blame him for colliding with this king, what's the matter, does Steward Huang have an opinion on this king's handling of this matter?" North King Road.
"Don't dare, I just think that the king of the north is not proper in handling this matter." Huang Xu also began to be a little sharp.
"Bold, you dare to teach this king a lesson, you have eaten the heart of a bear and a leopard gall, believe it or not, I will tell the king of the east about this matter and treat you for a big crime of disrespect." Beiwang felt that Huang Xu was challenging his authority.
"I think the East Prince's heart is like a mirror, and he will definitely have a fair statement on this matter, if he can't even do this, then he is not the East Prince." Huang Xu is neither humble nor arrogant
"You're so confident." King North continued to ask.
"I believe in our family's east prince, and I also believe in my own vision." Huang Xu felt that this was the time to show loyalty to the king of the east.
He expected that at the critical moment, someone would definitely appear to stop the North King, and this person might be the King of the East, or it could be someone else who could make the North King jealous. Because this matter is already a bit big, and there are a lot of people involved, and they are not ordinary people, I think this Dongwang must also know the situation here, maybe he is thinking about choosing when and for what reason to appear. He couldn't let the King of the North dictate his own territory.
"Presumably you want to stand up for your subordinate, right, well, I'll fulfill you, even you will be beaten, I want to see if your mouth is hard, or my fist is hard. Come, and surround him for me. As soon as Beiwang's words fell, half of the group of people separated and circled Huang Xu.
Huang Xu smiled, didn't make a sound, and looked at Zhao Xiaofeng who was standing next to him, he hoped that Zhao Xiaofeng would come out to play a round and break the deadlock temporarily, he didn't want to do anything with Beiwang's people at this time.
At this time, Zhao Xiaofeng was extremely reluctant to insert between Huang Xu and the King of the North, because, wouldn't that be a fire to the king, offending the king of the north for no reason, but he couldn't give up Huang Xu, no matter how he said he was his own person, although Huang Xu offended the king of the north because he was to blame, no one was to blame, but the key is that he was also on the scene, if he didn't do something on the surface, what would Huang Xu think, what would others think, and would the king of the east scold himself for not saving him if he died.
Just when Zhao Xiaofeng was struggling in his heart, someone suddenly said: "Brother Wei, you are still here, what's the matter, it seems that the smell of gunpowder is very strong here." ”
When Huang Xu saw the comer, he thought to himself, the savior has finally appeared.
