The little marquis stood up with a solemn expression and looked around. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Chu Qing asked, "What are you looking at, Senior Brother?"

The little marquis hesitated for a moment, and said cautiously: "Look, the fire started from that side, but the attic over there was not affected, but burned our side like this, don't you think it's strange?"

Chu Qing nodded and said, "Strange, so what?"

Xiao Hou Ye said slowly: "This is someone who wants to kill me!"

Chu Qing smiled: "Yes, someone is going to kill you, but what, the person who was going to kill you just now has already been killed by my junior brother!"

The little marquis looked at Chu Qing: "Oh, who is it?"

Chu Qing said proudly: "That's it, that man, waiter!"

The little marquis was stunned and said, "Waiter, what waiter?"

Chu Qing raised his right hand and scratched his head, explaining, "It's the one who served tea and water just now and ran errands, uh, waiter!"

The little marquis was surprised: "How could it be him? I will treat him!" He hugged his arms to his chest sullenly, lowered his head, and caught a glimpse of the injury on Chu Qing's arm, "Senior brother, are you injured?!" said that he stepped forward to check Chu Qing's injury, gritted his teeth and said: "This villain, Zhuzi! When I am a vegetarian?"

"It's fine, a little injury, healed soon. I've already taken revenge myself!" Chu Qing said, after such a period of spiritual recuperation, the wound healed a lot. Fortunately, the dagger was not poisoned, otherwise it would have been a big trouble.

The little marquis returned his hand and tore off one from the inner lining of his gorgeous clothes, and a pair of fat hands bandaged Chu Qing very skillfully: "Senior brother, let's go back to Xianfang first and get some elixir for you to compress." ”

The only gate in the annex was on the other side of the fire, and they couldn't get through, so the two of them had to climb over the wall by the pond. Outside the wall is a narrow road, out of the narrow road, to the main road, you will see the courtyard workers coming and going constantly to carry water to extinguish the fire, noisy and noisy, shouting and shouting one after another, reflecting the flickering huge fire.

When he was about to arrive at the front hall, the little marquis was finally recognized, and it was a middle-aged woman: "Bai Xiaohou Ye! Oh my God! Si Ming blessed! You are fine! But you scared me to death! If you have three long and two short here in the people's girl, how can the people's girl explain!"

The little marquis smiled and said, "Isn't this okay! You're busy!" turned to Chu Qing and said, "Senior brother, let's go." With Chu Qing, he walked through the front hall without looking back and went out.

Leaving the middle-aged bustard, she chased after her mouth and shouted a few times, but the little marquis ignored her, and she had to stand in place with a sad face. The little marquis said that it was fine, but it was really fine? The matter was big! In this case, at the smallest, it was called a fire, and at the worst, it was called murder! Fortunately, the little marquis was not seriously hurt now, otherwise she would really have to walk around without eating!

Chu Qing followed beside the little marquis and asked in a low voice, "Senior brother, that woman?"

The little marquis sneered: "Don't believe anyone, hurry up and leave here." If she honestly confesses tomorrow, I believe that she may not know, and if she makes any changes, she can't blame me for being ruthless!"

The two of them stood in front of the door and looked at each other for a moment, and the little marquis shouted irritably: "Sixth son!"

It is said that there is such a big thing inside, and the city patrol guards have arrived, and the sixth son should have gone in to see what the situation was, why did he disappear now?

Little Hou Ye's face sank: "Go!"

A short walk ahead, along the waterway on the side of the street, as soon as you turn the corner, you can see the stables of Yunxiang Pavilion. The two of them found the horse and carriage of the little marquis in the stable, but they did not see the sixth son. The little marquis didn't say a word, personally put the horse on, shouted Chu Qing to get into the car, and drove on the road in person.

"Senior brother, let's go back to the Hou Mansion with me first. The little marquis said.

The long street in Yingdu late at night is still lively, with people coming and going, and the lights are bright. The little marquis had a calm face, and quickly drove the carriage into the lane, got into the rut, and ran wildly! Some pedestrians who were wandering on the lane hurriedly avoided it when they saw this!

After passing a street corner, a group of men dressed as guards came, all with serious expressions, riding black horses, following the carriage on both sides of the escort. It should be someone from the Baihou Mansion.

The leader drove to the side of the car and respectfully asked the little marquis: "Young master!"

The little marquis said expressionlessly: "Go home." ”

"Yes!"

The Hou Mansion is not far from Yunxiang Pavilion, and it is only four or five long streets.

After a short time, Chu Qing followed the little Hou Ye to the Hou Mansion.

The Hou Mansion is naturally very magnificent, with a large high door, carved beams and painted buildings, a red plaque hangs high, two rows of red lanterns are hung at the door, each with the word "white" written on them, and the two stone carvings in front of the door are unicorn beasts with their heads held high! The vermilion door has seven rows of door nails on the door, symbolizing the status of the Hou Mansion! There are four guards standing under the door, dressed in strong suits!

The carriage entered the outer courtyard of the Hou Mansion from the side door, and before the car stopped, the little Hou Ye turned over and got out of the car. Chu Qing didn't have time to appreciate this magnificent mansion, and hurriedly followed the little marquis to get out of the carriage.

His own servants came and pulled the carriage down.

The guards who came with him also dismounted one after another and replied to a weather-covered doorman standing in the courtyard. When the little marquis saw the doorman, he didn't slack off, nodded and shouted, "Uncle Yan." ”

Uncle Yan nodded slightly, and said, "Young Master, come in, Master Hou is waiting for you in the study." ”

The little marquis confessed his guilt and took Chu Qing into the inner courtyard.

The two of them walked briskly, passed through the middle hall of the Hou Mansion, and passed through several courtyards, and came to a quaint pavilion.

The outside of the pavilion is heavily guarded. In the night, black-clothed guards carried weapons. Some stood guard, some patrolled around.

Entering the attic, the light inside is very soft and bright. The light source is not a lamp, but a piece of exquisite gemstones, which are inlaid in the walls and roofs! Bright, but not spacious. A heavy bookshelf occupies most of the space, and there are neat rolls of bamboo slips wrapped in brocade silk on the bookshelf, and each roll is hung with bamboo name tags, which are classified and stacked one by one.

In the center of the study room is a large bookcase, which is full of bamboo slips, pen and ink, ink pads, wine bottles, and bronze fruit trays. There is a wine urn next to the bookcase, and the whole room is mixed with the fragrance of wine.

Behind the bookcase, there is a sumptuous bronze couch, full of intricate and exquisite patterns.

On the short couch, a huge fat man sat upright! Looking at his face, there was no doubt that he was the father of the little marquis! His hair was neat, his face was calm, his dress was very noble and rigorous, he was dressed in black, and a fiery red unicorn was embroidered on his chest, revealing a majestic momentum!

The little marquis bowed and saluted: "Father!"

Chu Qing also followed Shi Li and shouted, "Uncle." ”

Bai Hou squinted slightly and looked at Chu Qing, and said unhurriedly: "You are Chu Qing." ”
