Chapter Eighty-Nine: Identity Revealed
Hu Luo, who had already gotten up in the room, rushed out in a few steps and exclaimed, "The Nine Emperor Princes are here?" ”
Mrs. Hu also didn't care about the fire in the guest house, and asked, "Is the news serious?" ”
"It's true, it's Yang Guan who brought the big strong around him to report the news, there will be no mistake! Prepare for it, sir! ”
Hu Luo has already fainted, how could the Nine Emperor Princes come to Tongzhou? Is it to convey the will of the queen?
But no matter how you calculate the distance, it can't be so fast!
At the critical moment, Mrs. Hu was still calm, and said in a loud voice: "Hurry up and inform Da Lang and Erlang to welcome the distinguished guests!" Let Steward Lin open the middle door! Sir, we don't have time to change our clothes, so let's go to the gate. ”
Hu Luo didn't have time to think about it, and walked quickly to the front yard with Mrs. Hu.
A mother-in-law at the gate of the main courtyard bumped into her and said hurriedly: "Madam, there is a present, there is a present!" ”
Mrs. Hu saw that she was the mother-in-law in the kitchen, and she knew that it was what she ordered last night, but now it is important to welcome the Nine Emperor Princes, and she can't care about anything else.
"You're waiting here!"
Mrs. Hu hurriedly left a sentence and chased Hu Luo to the door.
In the hurry, his eyes glanced at the still burning guest house. I thought in my heart that fortunately, the hospital was empty all around, and even if it burned out, it would not affect other places.
As for the family surnamed Qian, life and death are fateful!
But the guards outside really deserve to die, such a big fire was lit, and no one showed up beforehand.
When Yan Qihuo and his party came to the Hu Mansion, except for Hu Qiang, who was lying on the bed, everyone else came to the gate to greet the Nine Emperor Princes and his party.
Hu Luo straightened his clothes, trotted up and saluted: "The lower officials don't know that the Nine Emperors are coming, and they are not welcomed, please forgive your Highness!" ”
Yan Qihuo was not in the mood to greet him, looking at the sky and still a cloud of smoke, the horsewhip pointed and asked, "Is your house on fire?" Why don't you put out the fire yet? ”
Hu Luo: "......"
Zhong Taojiao turned over and dismounted, and said anxiously: "Nine Emperor Princes, let's go in quickly, could it be that something happened to Mingzhu and them?" ”
Mrs. Hu, who had taken a few steps forward and was about to speak, was stunned when she heard the words.
Yan Qihuo had already scolded: "Hu Luo! Don't lead the way yet! ”
Hu Luo had no choice but to say: "Nine Emperor Princes, that is the guest house, there are no houses around, it is estimated that the subordinates accidentally ......."
"Shut up! Lead the way! ”
Yan Qihuo had already raised his feet and walked towards the gate, Hu Luo had no choice but to follow behind, pointing the way from time to time, and soon arrived at the guest house.
I saw that the Yuehua door of the guest house was locked, and a bunch of guards and servants knelt at the door.
Mrs. Hu, who was originally following behind, suddenly stepped forward and said to Kang'an's daughter-in-law who was kneeling in front: "Where are the distinguished guests in the courtyard?" ”
Kang'an's daughter-in-law raised her head and saw that her wife kept making eyes.
Suddenly, he was blessed to his heart, and replied with a smile: "Mrs. Hui, they burned the yard for fun, and the slaves and maids stayed here, don't think of any of them." ”
Mrs. Hu was so angry that she couldn't care about her manners, so she kicked her leg up and scolded: "Cheap maid! It's a distinguished guest inside, so don't open the door to put out the fire! ”
Zhong Taojiao heard Mrs. Hu say that she was a distinguished guest, and when she thought of Mingzhu, she hurriedly said, "Open the door quickly!" If there is any mistake in Mingzhu, you will all die! ”
Yan Qihuo heard that Gu Fanghua might be inside, and then saw the thick smoke, pulled out the saber on his waist, cut the iron lock with two "bells", and kicked open the courtyard door!
"Pearl!"
As soon as Yan Qihuo rushed in, he saw Father-in-law Qian and the others hugging Gu Fanghua, sitting on the right side of the courtyard, looking at him with a smile.
Seeing Gu Fanghua sitting leisurely on the Taishi chair, surrounded by Danzhu and them, reflecting the fire that was about to be extinguished next to her, as well as the burned houses, it was weird.
Yan Qihuo was anxious just now, but now that he is relieved, he has a feeling of crying and laughing.
"Gu Mingzhu, why didn't this fire burn you?"
As soon as Yan Qihuo said this, Mrs. Hu in the back had her feet weak, and if it weren't for the servant woman beside her, she would have knelt down.
Finished!
Qian Mingzhu turned out to be the lord of Mingzhu!
Fan Keyun, the eldest young lady who followed behind, also turned white with fright. I thought: Fortunately, I didn't face to face with the county lord yesterday, and I didn't offend the county lord when I thought about it.
Kang'an's daughter-in-law, who was kneeling behind, was still ignorant and didn't know what was wrong. But the sound of "Gu Mingzhu" reminded her of the most famous Mingzhu county lord in the capital, who is also surnamed Gu, right?
In an instant, Kang'an's daughter-in-law was already paralyzed to the ground.
Gu Fanghua got up and scolded with a smile: "If you die, I won't die!" Then he hugged Zhong Taojiao, who rushed over, and became intimate with each other.
"Mingzhu, why is there a fire here? The door is locked again, and if the fire is almost extinguished, it won't burn you? ”
Zhong Taojiao saw that Gu Fanghua was safe and sound, and hurriedly asked.
Gu Fanghua seemed to be smiling, looked at Hu Luo and Mrs. Hu, and played with the agate string on her wrist.
Seeing their frightened expressions, he smiled and said, "Mrs. Hu said that if I leave this courtyard, I will discount my legs, of course I don't dare to go out." ”
Mrs. Hu knelt down, kowtowed and confessed: "The county lord is angry, the subordinates have eyes and do not know Mount Tai, if there is any offense and neglect, the courtiers will be severely punished." ”
Hu Luo finally reacted, this Qian Mingzhu is the lord of Mingzhu!
So how could she be with Hu Qiang? There is also Gu Shinian, who is the cousin of the county lord of Mingzhu. Hu Luo felt that his brain was not enough, and his eyes were full of stars.
Hu Luo knelt down next to his wife, and the subordinate behind him knelt on the ground "poof", and arched his hand: "The lower official has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, please forgive the county lord!" ”
Gu Fanghua slowly walked in front of Hu Luo and his wife.
Hu Luo and his wife lowered their heads and looked at them from their line of sight. I can only see the lifelike colorful butterflies on Gu Fanghua's pink embroidered shoes, as well as the huge southern pearl on the tip of the shoe.
Gu Fanghua stopped, looked down at them, and sneered: "Hu Fuyin, you are a member of the fourth rank of the imperial court, and you have a lot of power. Kneel to me, the county lord, is it a condescending talent? ”
Hu Luo pressed his head to the ground and said in a trembling voice: "The county lord is the second rank, and the lower official is the fourth grade, so naturally he should worship." ”
Gu Fanghua asked after him, "Really?" Then my second brother Gu has no official position and no rank, so you can deduct it if you want to, and you can catch it if you want to? ”
Hu Luo maintained a prostrate posture and did not dare to move, and argued: "The county lord is angry, the lower officials have not arrested Gu Ergongzi. It's just that the innkeeper reported the day before yesterday, saying that there was a Jiangyang thief in the store, and the officials arrested some people, but it was too late to interrogate. ”
"Oh? You mean you didn't arrest my second brother Gu? ”
Hu Luo was drenched in cold sweat, and reluctantly replied: "The lower officials don't know if they have arrested Gu Gongzi by mistake, if there is any mistake or omission, the lower officials will immediately release the person and apologize." ”
Gu Fanghua said with satisfaction: "Ninth cousin, you heard it, it was Master Hu who was wrong, not me who bullied others!" ”
Yan Qihuo had been on the road for so long, and he was already tired, so he shouted: "Gu Mingzhu, don't talk nonsense." Hu Luo, let Gu Er and them come out, I'm hungry! ”
Hu Luo took two steps on his knees, and he was embarrassed: "Your Highness the Nine, but the second son of Gu has been rescued." ”
"Rescued?"
