Chapter 8 The Landlord's Confession
The carriage creaked and walked on the streets of the capital, so slow that the wind on both sides could not even blow the corners of the coachman's clothes, and the people in the car kept scolding the driver who was driving outside, "Drive so fast, hurry to be reincarnated!" ”
It was Han Jun who drove the car. As soon as he heard that their father and wife were going back to the Hou Mansion to recognize their relatives, he immediately drove the coachman aside and drove the horse himself. At this moment, Han Hong scolded him in the car, and he didn't care.
The master of their family hasn't been back to the Hou Mansion for three years!
Why didn't even the emperor urge him to return home under the pretext of recognizing his relatives?
Anyway, he is also the prince of Guining Hou who was canonized by the Holy Decree!
Hou Mansion is returning to Hou Mansion in earnest, that is to go home, it is a normal thing, but there are many people gathered on the side of the road to see the rare scene, these people who see the rare scene are hindered by the obscenity of the people in the carriage, do not dare to point and say irresponsible things, do not say anything and hold back uncomfortable, one by one mouth smacked strangely.
Han Jun couldn't listen to it anymore, for fear that these cries would annoy the people in the car, so he immediately called someone forward and deliberately let go of his voice, "You go and ask Lord Zhou, the envoy of Beizhen, is there a space in the edict prison recently, should some people go in?" ”
As soon as these words fell, the people who were making a lot of noise on the side of the road heard it, and for a time they scattered one after another, and the carriage traveled for a long time, and the streets were clear, and not a single idler was gone.
Han Hong's face was ugly as if he had eaten a dead mouse. Pei Zhen sat silently, seeing that he snorted angrily for a while, and then mocked for a while, or he opened his mouth to scold Han Jun, just like Fang Cai.
Pei Zhen couldn't help but regret that he couldn't calculate that he suddenly pretended to be Han Hong's wife, let alone that she wanted to prove that she was much better, but she proved that she went to the Guining Hou Mansion.
She could memorize the drawings of the Han Mansion backwards, but she didn't know what the relationship between this Han Hong and the Guining Marquis Mansion was, so Lan Gu only said to her before leaving, "The Marquis of Guining is not as bad as the outside world says to Lord Han." ”
In other words, Han Hong is not good to his father?
Looking at Han Hong's style of acting, in the face of the people in the court in the capital, he doesn't care about his reputation and behaves perversely, but he is affectionate and righteous to the Tang family and Tang Qin. Pei Zhen pondered with his eyes half-closed, not daring to provoke the people around him, and he didn't know when the carriage stopped and arrived.
Although Han Hong's face was ugly, he didn't forget to help her get off the horse. After getting off the horse, his chin immediately raised, and the dish on his face suddenly turned into a domineering man with no one under him, like a landlord who came to collect the grain of the tenants, and he almost waved the leather whip twice!
Pei Zhen didn't want to be a dog for the landlord's old wealth, and continued to maintain his non-existent state.
She followed Han Hong all the way to the Hou Mansion, she didn't pay much attention to how the Hou Mansion was magnificent, just looked at the Han family people standing along the side to greet her, and couldn't help but feel that she couldn't write two "Han" characters with one stroke - Han Hong held his head high like an unscrupulous landlord, and those Han family subordinates were really like bullied tenants!
Guining Hou's Mansion is very big, Pei Zhen didn't know that after this Hou Mansion changed hands from the Han family, it was used as a royal garden and another mansion in the same place. The title of the Marquis of Guining was broken for a generation, and it was not until a few years ago that Han Rui made military exploits, and this mansion returned to the hands of the Han family.
All the way to the back garden next to the remote courtyard, although the location of the courtyard is partial, it can be seen that it is a well-built yard, compared to the silent yard next to it is a lot more lively, the door is written with three words - Fusheng Zhai.
There were many people standing inside and outside the courtyard of Fusheng Zhaiyuan, and the maids and women at the door all bowed their heads and saluted and shouted "Third Master, Madam". Pei Zhen listened to this title and guessed the reason why Han Hong didn't let people call him "Shizi". Han Hong didn't let people call him the prince, so they called him the third master, but Tang Qin was the wife of the prince who was canonized by the holy decree, and he still had to call his wife.
Pei Zhen pondered while following behind Han Hong, looking at him and ignoring him, he didn't even look at the radish heads of a group of brocade hats and mink furs standing under the porch of the main house in a regular manner, and he didn't take a second look.
Pei Zhen secretly thought that they were all juniors of the Han family, and Han Hong should give some face, but he just wanted to think about it, she was a fake, and there was no need to meddle in the affairs of the Han family.
When I arrived at the door, someone just opened the curtain and came out, and when I saw the two of them at the door, I hurriedly greeted, "The third brother and the third brother and sister are here!" The old lady is thinking about it! ”
This person is around thirty years old, and his appearance is somewhat similar to Han Hong, but he is not as arrogant as Han Hong, and he seems approachable. Of course, Pei Zhen didn't know who it was, and Han Hong didn't say anything when he saw this person, but turned sideways and helped her, "Madame, let's go into the house." ”
The man seemed to be stunned for a moment, looked at Pei Zhenlai seriously, and continued to politely say something "Brother and sister don't see outside", just like his family.
Pei Zhen secretly wondered which brother Han Hong was, but fortunately, she also knew that Han Hong had no brothers and sisters, and this must be some cousin. It's just that Han Hong didn't speak, and she only smiled generously and nodded.
The cousin lifted the curtain, and the heat gushed out from the room, and when he crossed the threshold, Han Hong let go of her and strode into the room, as if he wanted to arrest a prisoner. Pei Zhen wanted to laugh a little, but Xia Nan suddenly rushed out behind him and helped her.
"Madam, that's my uncle's cousin." Xia Nan said, squeezed his eyes at her, and whispered: "Madame, don't worry, go in, Xia Nan will remember it for Madame!" And Miss Qiao's side, it's also going well! ”
Pei Zhen turned his face when he heard this, and smiled gratefully at Xia Nan, "Thank you for your hard work." ”
Walking into the house, the heat of the house immediately surrounded people, and the children who were waiting in front of the door also followed. Pei Zhen followed closely behind Han Hong, bypassing the screen, the spacious room was crowded with people, and everyone's eyes fell on the two of them, Pei Zhen looked around unhurriedly, and his eyes fell on the two people above.
Han Hong's mother died early, and Han Hong's father, Guininghou Han Rui, and an old woman with white hair and half-hanging eyes sat at the top.
Han Hong suddenly stepped in front of the old lady, Pei Zhen was startled by him, and saw the servant woman immediately put two futons. Pei Zhen suddenly hurriedly followed, and bowed to the old lady by Han Hong's side.
After this worship, the atmosphere in the hall that seemed to be frozen immediately melted, the servant woman brought tea over, and an elderly man sitting on the other side laughed and said to the old lady: "Grandmother, Brother Hong has brought his new daughter-in-law here!" ”
The old lady still looked like Fang Cai's half-drooping eyes, Xu was old, he couldn't hear or see clearly, the man didn't care, and said to Han Hong: "Quickly kowtow to your father and make tea!" Say a few kind words in front of your father, and your father will naturally be happy for you to move back with your new daughter-in-law! ”
As soon as these words came out, Pei Zhen only felt that his eyes flickered, and Han Hong suddenly got up and snorted at the person who spoke.
He didn't say anything, only this breath came out of his nostrils, and he firmly stated his position.
The atmosphere in the room froze again, and it was even more frozen than when Pei Zhen first entered the room.
Freezing three feet, it's really not a day's cold!
The face of the man who had just spoken was completely wrinkled, and his two eyebrows were stuck on his face like chicken feathers on a shuttlecock. Pei Zhen glanced at him, and then at Han Hong's father, Gui Ninghou, who was sitting at the top, but the latter's face was light, as if he hadn't heard it.
