Chapter 212: Hatred
Chapter 212: Hatred
The royal New Year is from the 26th day of the first lunar month to the fifth day of the first month of the following year. And early in the morning of the fourth day of the new year, Xiao Baozi got up early in the morning to see his canopy to feed him some food, and said a few words, before coming back to wash and use breakfast with his parents. As a result, that morning, the canopy could not wake up no matter how much it screamed, and collapsed in the luxurious pigsty, hanging its big pig sign, foaming at the mouth and dead for a long time.
When Lao Ba and Xia Mo got the letter and rushed to the backyard, Xiao Baozi looked at the canopy blankly, couldn't even cry, and patted the canopy's stomach vigorously, "The canopy is up, the canopy is up, the little baby is angry......"
Xia Mo picked up the little bun, and the little bun struggled desperately in Xia Mo's arms, "E-niang, why canopy not get up, the little baby wants to call it up." ”
Xia Mo hugged Xiao Baozi tightly, tears couldn't stop falling, she regretted letting Xiao Baozi have a pet. When the little rabbit he raised died back then, he cried so much that he didn't dare to look at the rabbit for several years.
And the canopy is really raised by the little bun from the little piglet, when everyone else is no longer raised, everyone is laughing at him, he also insists as always, and has become the object of envy of everyone, the canopy is not only a pet, for the little bun, it is a friend, a playmate, and even a brother......
The eighth child didn't know how to comfort his son, but he knew that it was not simple, and his house was guarded by three classes of secret guards, especially at night, how could someone come to poison the secret guards would not know? You have to check, where is the loophole?
Xiao Baozi finally struggled and got tired, and cried out with a 'wow', Xia Mo and Lao Ba finally breathed a sigh of relief, and it was good to be able to cry.
For a few days, Xiao Baozi was sick, and he had never been so quiet since he was born, Xia Mo put down everything and concentrated on accompanying him, but the question is, what is the use of companionship, Xiao Baozi is really sad. He didn't even ask about the canopy anymore, as if there had never been one.
According to the meaning of the old eight, the backyard was directly dismantled, saving the small buns and touching the scene later. Xia Mo didn't let it, she knew that Xiao Baozi didn't accept this fact at all, and the adults helped him wipe it off, which didn't mean that nothing really happened, but it would leave a psychological shadow on Xiao Baozi, and the wound could only heal slowly, and he couldn't rush at all.
No one said anything about the dead old man of the canopy, the people in the Eighth Master's Mansion are not bad, generally speaking, if something like this happens, at least the people in charge of the backyard, as well as those who take care of the canopy, will not survive, but the eighth and Xia Mo did not ask any further.
Lao Ba and Xia Mo are very confident in these people, they will not do anything to betray the Lord for a little money, after saying trust, by the way, New Year. Don't spread the word about it, so as not to make other people's families worry about it.
The people were very moved in their hearts, on the one hand, they were glad that they had such a good family owner, and on the other hand, they also scolded the poisoner in their hearts, and they couldn't die well. So no one outside knew that the canopy was dead, including the old four family next door.
It's not that the secret guards asked for the sin first, they didn't find out, but to be honest, they were more concerned about people's safety. Who would have thought that someone would move that pig? After the crime, the investigation began, first ruled out the crime in the house, and then investigated where the little bun went during the day, what things he ate in the canopy, and whether he wanted to seek a pig or a man? It's all what the eighth wants to know. The secret guards also held their breath, the little bun is a little master, and it is a cute little master, they don't dare to think that if someone wants to harm the little master and accidentally injure the canopy, it will make people feel embarrassed.
In the end, after everything was gone, the dark guards had no choice but to turn their attention back to the canopy, and after checking inside and out, they found plum blossom needles on the canopy. took out the needle and presented it to the eighth, who didn't say anything, and the matter was over.
It's really not that the secret guard is careless, if it is a dead person, it will naturally be examined first, but it is a pig that died, who has nothing to throw a hidden weapon on the pig, how expensive the hidden weapon is! Not to mention the plum blossom needle.
Don't look at a plum blossom needle, but there is seventy percent pure gold in it. Thirty percent of fine iron, coupled with the poison that seals the throat with pure blood, the price of itself is far more than that of a pig. Not to mention the person who throws the needle, the person who can afford this kind of needle is also famous in the rivers and lakes, who would spend such a lot of money to kill a pig, isn't it sick?
So the dark guard naturally checked from the poisoning at the beginning, which is in line with the identity of the victim. As a result, things in the world are so unpredictable, people just kill a pig at any cost, what can you do? The dark guard was really angry, isn't it embarrassing for the killer world?
At night, Xiao Baozi fell asleep, and the eighth child called Xia Mo out and showed her plum blossom needles.
"What is this?"
"Hidden weapon! It is highly poisonous and hits the body of the canopy. So even the guards didn't hear anything, and the canopy died. The eighth sneered and knocked on the table.
"Do you know who it is?" What Xia Mo is thinking now is that if this injection is not a canopy but a small bun, she can't help but feel a chill. Look at the little needles like cow's hair on the black velvet cloth, it has been mentioned in martial arts, she was originally a wild imagination of others, but she didn't expect that there really is such a thin hidden weapon, how to prevent this, the little bun can't be locked up every day, right?
"Someone has already been sent. Just a little hard to figure out, just for a few words, as for it? Lao Ba rubbed his eyes, of course he wouldn't let people with this kind of secret weapon live, this time he could hit the canopy, and next time he could hit Xiao Baozi's body, he couldn't afford to take this risk, and he also had to let people know that the Eighth Master's Mansion was not really so easy to bully.
At the banquet that day, Xiao Baozi saw Xia Mo and immediately became honest and sat obediently in the old man's arms. Motionless, I didn't dare to talk nonsense, and my little eyes didn't dare to roll around. It's like he's a very well-behaved baby.
The old man was amused by his appearance again, so everyone laughed along. Xia Mo couldn't laugh at it, clapped her hands and let him come down, she couldn't go to the old man's arms and take her son out directly.
Xiao Baozi looked at one of his bare feet, the old man was going to let someone help him put on shoes and socks, but Xiao Baozi kicked with his little feet, threw out the other shoe, took off his socks, and jumped down with two bare feet.
"Watch out for the cold!" The old man seemed to really feel sorry for the little bun, and said hurriedly.
"It's okay, it's okay, Huang Marfa, the little baby is barefoot in the countryside, it's very comfortable." Xiao Baozi sold Xia Mo again.
Xia Mo decided not to hold his hand, and directly took his ear to the queen mother to accuse her, Concubine Liang hurriedly stood up and sued her, she was no better than Xia Mo, she felt sorry for her grandson's bare feet! Busy laughing Mimi came over and picked up her baby grandson and took her back to her palace to wash her feet and put on her shoes.
The little bun is gone, and the old man finally has time to see his son and grandson, of course, the first to criticize is Hongxi, who is too not calm, and not open-minded enough, what is there to compete with his three-year-old brother, and finally said, the New Year's Day, saying so unaware of taboo words, is really unorthodox.
The old man really didn't think he was too strict, if it was his son, he would have been scolded by him. At the family banquet in the Qianqing Palace, even a prince who is not yet eight years old like Lao Eighteen is not qualified to be here, but the emperor and grandson only let Hongsheng and Xiao Baozi participate, which in itself shows the old man's love for Hongsheng and Xiao Baozi.
And the old man has two completely different mentalities towards Xiao Baozi and Hongsheng, and he has the same mood for Xiaobao as teasing pets, but he has big expectations for Hongsheng. Every emperor has three generations, and bringing Hongchen to his side is in the hope that the next two generations of emperors will be taught by himself himself, and they are all a generation of saints like himself.
But the old man forgot, Hongsheng has never suffered setbacks, Hongxi's short life of 12 years, the only two times the noodles were damaged in front of the little bun, the first time the noodles were planted because the little bun on the eye medicine said that he did not give the old eighteen salutes, although the old man did not say anything, but went home and was scolded by his prince's father;
The second time was at the family banquet, I thought that at the New Year's family banquet, the old man would not make himself ugly, but from beginning to end, the old man hugged the little bun and kissed and smiled, as if others were not in his eyes, obviously the little bun was unruly, why did he scold him in the end? How could Hongchen endure this breath. What's more, in front of so many uncles!
And at that time, because the old man reprimanded him was not very bad, so everyone didn't take it seriously, who was not scolded by the old man, and now he is already very face-saving to Hongxi, so he didn't even have a pleading, which made Hongchen feel ashamed and embarrassed. Resentful of the little buns.
The eighth saw Hongxi's anger, so he gave Hongchen a Damascus scimitar the next day, which was regarded as an apology for the little bun, but he didn't expect the second brother to still not give up, and he had to make the little bun sad, so he gave up? This is for yourself!
"Who is it?" Xia Mo didn't understand, looking at the eighth child like this, he should know who it was, who had such a big hatred, sent a master out, but only killed a pig! Of course, killing this pig is bad enough, that's the half life of the little bun.
"Prince! It seems that the father is really a problem, he can't see his children being wronged a little, and seeing that his son is suffocating, he has to find a way back? ”
"Wouldn't it? How could the second brother ......" Xia Mo was taken aback, he didn't believe that the prince would be so boring.
"That's Hongxi? Do you think a twelve-year-old can send a killer to kill a pig? "The eighth only knows that the person who makes the needle is one of the secret guards of the prince's mansion, and he can send it, except that the prince is the prince Hongxi, the eighth doesn't believe that a twelve-year-old child will have such a heart, not to mention, didn't he give Hongchen a scimitar? So the eighth child's spearhead was directed at the prince.
"If it was the second brother, he wouldn't just kill the pig, and he wouldn't have left such clear evidence, maybe it's really Hongxi, sometimes children do such stupid things." Xia Mo sighed softly, Hongxi, she has never taken a good look at that child, she has always had a good relationship with the prince, but if you think about it, over the years, he has had the least contact with her brother.
Because of this, she has no sense of Honghui, but it is just a courtesy, and she has never had the natural closeness to Honghui and Lao Eighteen. Looking at the plum blossom needle now, thinking about the child who is similar to the old man and the prince everywhere, Xia Mo felt a chill in his heart.
