Chapter Forty-Eight: Murder by a Knife

"Who is it? Governor Sun was stunned for a moment, and then asked.

"The subordinates don't know, it's just that the person who came has strong martial arts, and the subordinates are invincible, so the woman was rescued by them." The guard gritted his teeth and replied.

Sun Zhifu wanted to come to Sun Mansion to make trouble, didn't that person eat hungry and ambitious leopard guts?

"Are people still there?"

"It's in the garden!"

"I'm going to take a look!"

Governor Sun's footsteps were very fast, and he arrived at the so-called garden in a short time, and as soon as he entered, he asked a strong smell of blood.

Thinking that this smell was likely to be the blood of the guards in his mansion, Governor Sun's face was gloomy, and his eyes were a little more ruthless.

There was a pavilion in the garden, and he could see Hua Xiyan standing in the pavilion, standing gracefully, and the people sitting at the table didn't know what to say.

Sun Zhifu strode up the pavilion, looked at the old man sitting at the table, and asked loudly, "Who is Your Excellency?" ”

Wen Xuanhou didn't answer, but just talked to Hua Xiyan and left Governor Sun's mansion aside.

Governor Sun looked at the old man, but he was dressed in gray coarse cloth, with gray hair and a few deep wrinkles on his forehead, looking a few points older than Zhao Lao.

But this person has these few strong martial arts guards, and it is obviously not a simple role.

Thinking of this, Governor Sun saluted Wen Xuanhou: "Old man, dare to ask who you are?" What's the important thing to come to the humble house? ”

Wen Xuanhou then fell on Governor Sun's face, and his voice sounded like a bell: "If I don't come, won't this girl die?" ”

Governor Sun pulled a smile on his face: "The old gentleman doesn't know, this woman has a vicious mind, so I punished her with a big warning." ”

"Oh?" Wen Xuanhou was puzzled, "You're going to put people in a water prison, what kind of small punishments and big commandments are you talking about?" Is it not a big deal not to lose your life? ”

"This is an internal matter of my Sun family, and the old gentleman should take care of it." Governor Sun thought that this old man was here to make a name for Huaxi Yan, and he was simply meddling. In the whole of Rongzhou, he has never been afraid of anyone, let alone an old man?

Huaxiyan is a little girl from a poor family, what executives and elites can she meet? Maybe the people next to him were just hired thugs.

Thinking like this, Governor Sun was a little more confident.

Hua Xiyan spoke out at this time, looked at Wen Xuanhou, and said apologetically: "You can come and stand up for me, the little girl is already grateful." As for the ginseng matter, the little girl really didn't expect it, so she admitted it. ”

"Bullshit admit it!" Wen Xuanhou glared at Hua Xiyan, and actually burst into a foul mouth, "I'm here today, I'll see who has the guts to move you!" ”

Hearing this, Governor Sun's face became even more uneasy: "You are an elder, I respect you a little, if you continue to make trouble like this, I will have to offend!" ”

Hua Xiyan shook his head helplessly, thinking that Governor Sun's life over the years had been too comfortable after all, so that he had forgotten his identity, and he didn't even have the ability to recognize people.

"You're welcome to me? Could it be that you want to put me in that water prison too? Wen Xuanhou laughed as if he had heard some big joke, and his beard trembled.

Governor Sun naturally couldn't stand this full of ridicule, stared at Wen Xuanhou, and said in a sonorous tone: "Mr.'s move today is to trespass on a private house, and if you go to take a prison and sit down, you can't taste it!" ”

"Bastard!" Suddenly, there was a loud shout, but it was not from the people in the pavilion. Hearing this, Governor Sun turned his head and saw Zhao Lao walking over very quickly.

Zhao Lao entered the pavilion, slapped his head and face at Governor Sun's mansion, and beat him for unknown reasons, then turned his head and knelt down to bow to Wen Xuanhou: "The lower officials see the Hou Ye!" ”

The title of Marquis Wenxuan is not the highest, but it is extremely respected by the one in the capital. Every time the palace banquet is held, the emperor has to bow to the Marquis of Wenxuan, not to mention that these ministers naturally have to pay all the courtesies.

Governor Sun was already blinded, and the whole person was stunned on the spot and didn't know how to speak. Zhao Lao just lay on the ground and sweated like rain, thinking that this idiot would not make amends, what would the pestle do there?

"Lord Sun, when you see Marquis Wenxuan, you are so rude, what kind of crime should you be punished for such actions? Eyes without respect? No distinction between dignity and inferiority? Or ...... Guilty of trouble? ”

Hua Xiyan's light and pleasant voice woke up Governor Sun's mansion, he immediately knelt on the ground with a "flutter", and said in a trembling voice at the old man with an unkind face above: "The lower official has no eyes, he collided with Hou Ye, and I hope that Hou Ye will forgive his sins!" ”

Wen Xuanhou didn't speak, and the two people on the ground didn't dare to do anything, just trembling like chaff.

"Zhao Lao, get up!" After a while, Wen Xuanhou spoke.

Old Zhao thanked him this time and stood up, his legs were extremely sore, and he wanted to rub but didn't dare.

Sun Zhifu was even more panicked in his heart, and cold sweat kept dripping, blurring his vision. He looked at a pair of exquisite embroidered shoes not far in front of him, gritted his teeth, and was extremely embarrassed.

"Why is Old Zhao here?"

"Go back to the Hou Ye, the lower officials and this Sun family...... Some in-law relationships. Zhao Lao replied with his fists clenched, his old face a little distorted.

Wen Xuanhou was shrewd, and when he thought about it, he nodded and said: "No wonder the Sun family doesn't look down on this girl, it turns out that they have fallen in love with Zhao Lao's beloved grandson." It's no wonder that she can dispose of this girl casually. ”

Wen Xuanhou said a "girl" very intimately, but the last meaningful sentence made the two even more shocked.

"Master Hou doesn't know that the grandson-in-law of the lower official is seriously ill, and it is precisely because of the ginseng sent by this woman! Governor Sun is also eager to protect his son, and he hopes that the Hou Ye will not care! Zhao Lao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said loudly.

Wen Xuanhou looked at Zhao Lao with a pair of shrewd old eyes: "I heard this girl say that the ginseng is fake!" ”

"Hou Ye Mingjian, it's true!" Governor Sun hurriedly answered.

Wen Xuanhou sighed faintly, and said helplessly: "This matter cannot be decided, it is better to leave it to the saint." ”

Zhao Lao and Governor Sun were all stunned, thinking about how could this matter have anything to do with the emperor?

Hua Xiyan chuckled, and was very kind to explain everyone's doubts: "The two adults don't know, that ginseng is the holy reward received by the Hou Ye, and it was transferred to the little girl. Otherwise, how could the little girl get such a rare thing as 500 years of ginseng? ”

When Governor Sun heard this, his body was weak and he collapsed to the ground.

He even questioned the divine reward, and 10,000 heads were not enough for him to die like this!

"Back to the Hou Ye, that remark was said by those doctors, and the two officials didn't know about it!" Zhao Lao was the first to come back to his senses and tried to exonerate.

"Yes, exactly!" Governor Sun also nodded busily.

Hua Xiyan's eyes were clear, and she had already expected that according to the shamelessness of Sun Fu, she would inevitably shirk all the blame cleanly.

But this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, how can she just forget it?

"Master Sun, I reminded you just now that it was a quack doctor who misled people, and it was you who insisted on going your own way, and now you don't know what you are talking about, it's really ridiculous!" Hua Xiyan chuckled lightly and spoke slowly.

"The lower officials are also confused for a while, and I hope that the adults will see it!" Governor Sun kept kowtowing to Marquis Wenxuan, hoping that he could suppress the matter and not report it to the capital.

"If you are so confused about such a small matter, how should such a big thing of governing the country be? With such a large jurisdiction as Shanzhou, did Lord Sun have any times when he was confused? ”

Governor Sun scolded Hua Xiyan in his heart, thinking that this woman was so scheming at a young age, and completely forgot the shameless acts he had done to the Hua family.

"A country is a country, a home is a family, how can it be confused?" Zhao Lao was the first to refute the exit.

Wen Xuanhou chuckled: "I think what Hua Yatou said is right, the family and the country are one, and such a trivial matter can be deceived by others, so the major events of the national fortune will be even less important." ”

After saying that, Wen Xuanhou slowly stood up: "Don't kneel here, this matter is not something that Benhou can control, and your begging will be useless." ”

In a word, it shows Wen Xuanhou's attitude.

Governor Sun's face was like ashes in an instant.

Hua Xiyan followed Zhao Lao, slowly walked out of the pavilion, turned his head to look at Governor Sun's mansion when he left, and said a few words silently-

It's not over yet.

Sun Zhifu clenched his hands into fists, the green tendons on the back of his hands bloomed, and he almost gritted a mouthful of teeth when he looked at Hua Xiyan's provocative appearance.

He finally understood the meaning of Hua Xiyan, I am afraid that the ginseng is real or fake, but it is in the original box, and it is in the name of the imperial gift! But how now? That ginseng has been eaten by Sun Muyang, and there is no proof of death!

It doesn't matter if Hua Xiyan is sure that the ginseng is real, the important thing is that Wen Xuanhou believes her! Then she used such a ginseng to pull out the matter of his Lizhou County, I am afraid that the excerpt of Wen Xuanhou will be handed over today, and tomorrow the emperor's Qin will send it. He has been governing for so many years, although he has been conscientious, but there are always mistakes, and any small mistake that is found out may become evidence to bring down the Sun family!

I can't imagine that a small ginseng plant can give birth to so many problems, this woman borrowed a knife to kill people, it is really good!

——

Hua Xiyan followed Wen Xuanhou into the carriage of the Hou Mansion, and then looked at his nose and nose, and his heart and heart did not move.

"Wasn't that good at arguing just now? Why don't you talk now? Wen Xuanhou looked at the quiet woman and slowly spoke.

"I'm just afraid that Hou Ye will blame."

"What is there to blame for Ben Hou?" Wen Xuanhou said, a flash of shrewdness flashed in his old eyes.

Hua Xiyan exhaled slowly, and his tone was flat and sincere: "I expected today's events, and I also knew that the Hou Ye would make decisions for me, so I have such confidence." ”

"You mean you took advantage of Benhou?"

Hua Xiyan's mind was shocked, but his face was not shocked: "Come out today, the Sun family will take me away from the carriage of the Hou Mansion, I know that according to the Hou Ye's upright and righteous nature, he will not abandon me, and I also expected that the Hou Ye will send someone to come, but I didn't expect that the Hou Ye actually came in person, which really flattered the little girl." ”

Wen Xuanhou laughed, obviously in an extremely happy mood: "Last time you said about the matter between you and the Sun family, your coming to the Sun family is tantamount to the Longtan Tiger's Den, how can you rest assured if Ben Hou doesn't come to see it in person." ”

Hua Xiyan was moved, pursed his lips slightly, and the light in his bright eyes became a little more brilliant.

"It's easy to meet a girl who is very close to me, Ben Hou has to take a good look at you." Wen Xuanhou's tone was very relaxed, relieving Hua Xiyan's somewhat suppressed emotions.

Hua Xiyan chuckled and looked at Wen Xuanhou's face, full of respect.

"Thank you Lord Hou for your love!"
