Just as Haruko was feeding Du Bu to drink ginseng soup, a man in black suddenly jumped down from the roof of the room, and this man in black was the familiar Hosokawa Yasumoto.

Hosokawa Yasugen didn't wait for the two of them to react, so he restrained Haruko and jumped up from the roof with her in his arms.

Unexpectedly, after Du did not forget to chase after him, he was stopped by a group of Fuso samurai, and then Hosokawa Yasumoto said:

"Don't forget, please don't meddle in things, this is a private matter between our Hosokawa family and the Ouchi family, I want to take Haruko back to find his father Ouchi Yoshixing to settle accounts!"

After finishing speaking, he took Haruko and ran.

Du did not forget that because of this group of Fuso samurai blocking him, he couldn't chase it, and after all the Fuso samurai were solved, Hosokawa Yasugen had already disappeared.

At this time, Fu Tianchen also came to Du Buzhi, and asked:

"What's the matter, Miss Haruko?"

Du did not forget to say helplessly:

"Haruko was captured by Yasumoto Hosokawa!"

Then he said:

"Then I'll leave it to you, Brother Fu!"

Then he hurriedly chased after him.

As a result, they chased out of the city, but they didn't see any trace of the two, and then inquired about passers-by, only to find that the two had already ridden fast horses to the east.

A few days later, after Du Buyi and Fu Tianchen separated in Wudang, they returned to their hometown in Hanshui.

Unexpectedly, after returning home this time, a seal had already been posted at the door of the old house, and when I went in, it was messy inside, and it seemed that the imperial court had already come here to raid the house.

Du Bu Bu entered the house and missed it, and then closed the door and was about to leave, when a woman next to him walked by, and saw Du Bu Bu who was closing the door, so he stopped and asked curiously:

"Who are you? How dare you enter the house of the imperial court, and you are not afraid of being convicted?"

When Du did not forget to hear the invasion of the imperial court, he sneered, then turned his head and said to the woman:

"I'm the imperial court prisoner, I don't know, auntie, where you are?"

The woman was startled for a moment, then said slowly:

"I married the Luo family a few years ago!"

Then he came over and looked at Du Yi, and asked:

"Are you really a convicted prisoner, have you never forgotten the former King Du and Tanhua Du?"

Du did not forget to reply:

"Exactly!"

Then he asked:

"Are you the daughter-in-law of Uncle Luo's family?"

The woman didn't reply, but ran away.

Seeing this, Du Shu closed the door and planned to leave.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked to the town and was about to go to the ferry to take a boat, he was surrounded by a group of officers and soldiers, and the leader was the Uncle Luo that Du did not forget.

Du didn't forget to ask Uncle Luo:

"Why is that?"

This Uncle Luo replied:

"Since you are a traitor in the imperial court, a traitor, although we are neighbors, we are also ashamed of your betrayal of the Ming Dynasty, and the imperial court also has an order, if you are caught, you will be rewarded with eight hundred taels of silver, do not forget to look at Uncle Luo's face, you can be arrested!"

Du did not forget to hear this, smiled, and said:

"Uncle Luo, I'm not thin on you neighbors, I've been an official for a few years, although I'm not at home, but I also ask my friends to take care of you people, I didn't expect you to fall into the ground!"

Uncle Luo replied:

"Uncle Luo, I can't help it, after all, I have a bunch of people in my family to feed, and eight hundred taels is not a small amount!"

Du Buyi left in a few arrow steps, leaving a sentence:

"Uncle Luo, I don't blame you for looking at the face of my fellow villagers, but it's not so easy for you to be greedy for those eight hundred taels of silver!"

Before the officers and soldiers could even draw their swords, they were already gone, and they were all stunned for a while.

After Du did not forget to leave, he arrived in Jingzhou City, and at this time he had to change into a bearded man.

When Du did not forget to eat wine and food at the inn, he saw the Great Sage Dharma King with his group of monks.

After the Great Sage Dharma King sat down, he and his subordinates ordered a table of big fish and meat, and asked Xiao Er about someone.

Du was taken aback, wasn't he inquiring about himself? Unexpectedly, this Tibetan Great Sage Dharma King actually chased him here.

I saw Xiao Er reply inexplicably:

"This master, we haven't seen the wanted criminal you mentioned here!"

The Great Sage Dharma King waved his hand at Xiao Er and motioned for Xiao Er to go away.

After Xiao Er went to get busy, at this time, a disciple next to the Great Sage Dharma King said:

"Master, I think we should not be in a hurry to find that kid first, why don't we go to Huangmei County to find Tao Daochang first!"

The Great Sage Dharma King sighed and replied:

"Also, I didn't expect that kid to be a former Northwest General wanted by the imperial court, in that case, it seems that we don't have to rush to find him, let's do big things and go to Tao Daochang!"

Then, after the people had finished eating, they left in a hurry and hurried away.

When Du Buyi heard Tao Daochang, he couldn't help but think of Tao Zhongwen, and his heart shuddered, could it be that Xia Zihan was married by Xia Yan to this Tao Daochang of Huangmei County?

Following the group of people of the Great Sage Dharma King, they got on the ferry, took the boat, and after a few days of eastward travel, passed Wuchang and Qizhou, and arrived at the territory of Huangmei County.

At this time, when he went ashore, the Great Sage Dharma King seemed to have found Du Buxing, a bearded man who followed him all the way, so he deliberately stopped to wait for Du Bucheng, who was holding his luggage.

Du did not forget that he knew the purpose of the Great Sage Dharma King and his party, so he calmly walked over and deliberately lowered his voice to greet the Great Sage Dharma King:

"Hello, Master!"

The eyes of the Great Sage Dharma King and the disciples around him kept passing on a while, and then he asked:

"Brother, did you also come to Huangmei County from Jingzhou?"

Du did not forget to reply:

"Yes, I'm here to visit relatives in Huangmei County!"

Then he asked rhetorically:

"I don't know what a few masters are doing in Huangmei County?"

Seeing that Du Bu didn't seem to be nervous, the Great Sage Dharma King was not nervous, and his tone was clear, and his expression eased at this time, and he said:

"We are from Tibet, and we are going to meet an old friend in Huangmei County!"

Du Buyi smiled and said:

"Since we are on the same path as the master, why don't we move forward together?"

The Great Sage Dharma King also smiled:

"Of course, it's rare to have a companion from the Central Plains who can speak, I don't know where you come from, brother, how to call it?"

Du didn't forget to think about it and replied:

"In Xia Du Shilang, from Suzhou!"

Then he deliberately asked:

"I don't know what you call it, Master?"

The Great Holy Dharma King replied:

"I am one of the four great Dharma Kings of Tibet!"

Du did not forget to ask:

"I only heard that there are only three Dharma Kings in Tibet, but I didn't expect that there are four Dharma Kings for you?"

The Great Holy Dharma King said with disdain on his face:

"I am the brother of Gendun Gyatso.** Living Buddha, how can the other three Dharma Kings compare with this Dharma King, even the Great Treasure Dharma King has to act according to the decree of my Great Sage Dharma King!"

Du did not forget to reply:

"I see!"

Then he raised his mother finger at this Great Sage Dharma King, and the Great Sage Dharma King was arrogant.

Then a few people chatted all the way.

It turned out that this Great Sage Dharma King would secretly come to the Central Plains once every three years, so it was inconvenient to mention it to Du Buxing, and Du Buyi also guessed that there would be no good thing.

Unconsciously, in the evening, a few people arrived in Huangmei County, and Du did not forget to part ways with a few people, on the surface they parted ways, but in fact, Du did not forget to quietly follow a few people.

After seeing a few people enter the inn after a while, Du Buyi remembered that Xia Zihan was coming, so he went to inquire near the county governor's mansion, only to know that this county is now Tao Zhongwen, and Xia Zihan is now a concubine in Tao Zhongwen's mansion.

After inquiring with people nearby, Du Buyi climbed over the wall and came to Xia Zihan's hospital, and then went to the door of the house, and peeked inside, only to see that Xia Zihan was removing his makeup and preparing to fall asleep at this time, and his appearance was no longer as good as before, although he was only in his twenties, he seemed to be like a middle-aged woman in his forties.

Du Bu didn't forget to knock on the door and go in, but at this time, a maid happened to come, Du Bu didn't forget to take a closer look, wasn't this maid also Xia Zihan's personal chrysanthemum in his former home?

After seeing Xiao Ju enter the door, he walked to Xia Zihan's side and said:

"Miss, are you ready to rest?"

Xia Zihan replied:

"Yes, Xiaoju, why haven't you slept yet?"

Xiao Ju said:

"Miss, you haven't slept, where can I sleep!"

At this time, Xia Zihan suddenly asked:

"Xiaoju, I seem to have remembered some past events recently, have I been married once before?"

Xiao Ju was taken aback, and then said:

"Miss, isn't it that the master hasn't come to accompany you for a while, Miss, you will be cranky!"

Xia Zihan smiled and said:

"My life is doomed to ruin when I marry my master, I don't care if he comes or not, if he doesn't come, I'm much quieter!"

Xiao Ju hurriedly said:

"Miss, don't think like this, since you are married to a big family, who doesn't want to be favored by the master?"

Xia Zihan replied:

"Don't you know the character of the old man? He is a wolf of wealth in sheep's clothing, although he is a monk and a parent official, he goes in and out of the brothel of the Qinglou all day long, and he is refining some harmful pills for Shao Guoshi at home, so as to flatter the emperor, but it is ridiculous that he has never been promoted!"

Xiao Ju said:

"Master, this is just enduring humiliation, after all, although Shao Guoshi trusts the master on the surface, he has been using and guarding against the master!"

Xia Zihan waved his hand and said:

"Don't talk about that!"

Then he asked:

"How's my dad doing?"

Xiaoju replied:

"I heard that the lord has been favored by His Majesty recently, and he has also received four grades!"

Xia Zihan smiled, and then said:

"That's good, although I haven't seen my dad for a few years, I hope my dad will be healthy and prosperous in the future!"

Xiaoju replied:

"The master is so talented, he will definitely be!"

Xia Zihan touched his forehead again at this time and said:

"Xiaoju, why do I keep thinking of a strange man for no reason lately?"

Xiaoju replied:

"Miss, you're thinking nonsense again, don't think about that, I'll help you go to rest!"

Then he helped Xia Zihan to sit back on the bed, the two chatted a few more words, and Xiaoju blew out the light for Xia Zihan, closed the door and left.

Seeing this, Du didn't forget to see this, hesitated, and after Xiaoju walked out of the courtyard, he still came to the door of Xia Zihan's house and knocked twice.

At this time, Xia Zihan was suddenly startled, sat up, and asked:

"Who's knocking on the door?"

Du did not forget and shouted:

"Zihan, it's me!"

At this time, Xia Zihan suddenly felt that this voice was so familiar and kind, and he unconsciously remembered a lot of things from before.
