Chapter 70: The Family
The fog cleared and the sun rose.
The morning sun in chūn is very warm, giving people a fresh and energetic feeling, which makes people feel refreshed.
At this time, Wu Wenhou, Zhengfu. It's also time for breakfast.
The breakfast is very rich, in addition to the ten plates of jīng zhi dim sum, candied fruit, there are also bird's nest porridge, rǔ wheat porridge, lotus seed porridge, honey rǔ, and so on more than ten kinds of health porridge points.
After the porridge is ordered, it is a small can of fist-sized black chicken mountain ginseng, five-flavor mutton hot, rǔ pigeon soup, crucian carp brain marrow blanch, etc., which are also more than a dozen kinds of scalding to replenish vitality, adjust jīng spirit, and nourish internal organs.
The pastries, the staple of the taro and wheat noodle buns, are also decorated in the pot with freshly planted and cleanly cleaned flower petals. The aroma of the food is even more contaminated with the fragrance of flower dew, not to mention taking a bite, even if you smell it, it is refreshing.
To prepare such a table early, the cooks, maids, and thirty or forty people in the main mansion of the Hou Mansion had to get up from the third watch and work until dawn.
At this time, after Mrs. Zhao washed her mouth with the tea soup boiled by Snow Lotus, she sat down on her seat and was enjoying breakfast under the service of a large number of maids and maids around her.
Eating breakfast at this time of day is a rule that the Zhao family in the south has cultivated for many years, and it cannot be moved. Mrs. Zhao is the master of the Hou Mansion, and she also brought the luxury, exquisiteness, and decency of the southern family to the Hou Mansion.
In the past, Mrs. Zhao enjoyed breakfast quietly alone. But today, there was a man sitting across from her, also sitting with her.
This person is also a woman wearing a xia cloak and a golden hairpin and emerald pearl on her head, about thirty or forty years old, and obviously a noblewoman.
"Sister, you are also too frugal, there are only thirty-six snacks, porridge, and soup for a breakfast. You know, now that my brother-in-law is the imperial master, under one person, above ten thousand, you can't go to decency. ”
This noble lady took a sip of the bird's nest porridge brought over by the maid in a jīng Zhi thin bowl, looked at the breakfast on the table, and said with a smile: "Our Zhao family, in the Great Zhou Dynasty, was a famous family for hundreds of years, and now Daqian, it is the founder of the country with Taizu Conglong, and the merits are brilliant, and the old lady of our family has fifty porridge and noodle soup for breakfast, and now the status of my sister is not much worse than that of the old lady, and the meal is too frugal." ”
"Your brother-in-law doesn't like luxury, he governs the family simply, and is an example for the courtiers, as his wife, I also have to manage this family for him, and I can't let outsiders talk irresponsible and poke the backbone. Mrs. Zhao said.
"It's good to keep your home simple, but you can't lose your dignity. The noble lady smiled, and then her face sank: "Sister, isn't that slut's yīn soul not gone, and the evil seed that was born is now also beginning to churn, I knew that you were ruthless at the beginning, and you killed that evil seed at once." ”
"If you want to toss, you can't toss big waves, didn't you bring Zhao Han over? With Zhao Han's skills, can't you control that little evil obstacle?" Mrs. Zhao said lightly: "But I also lost my eyes, I thought that the evil obstacle would die and study, but I didn't expect it to be stupid." But this is not a big deal, even if you leave the Hou Mansion, you can't escape from the palm of my hand. In the Hou Mansion, I have a lot of things that are not convenient. ”
"Ziyu, you wait and contact Zhao Han and tell me every move of that little evil obstacle. Mrs. Zhao then instructed the four jade girls who were originally waiting to monitor Hong Yi.
"Zhao Han's skills are among the dead guards of our Zhao family, although they are not top-notch, but they are also outstanding, and he looks at that little evil barrier, it is extremely safe. "The lady is humane. "I heard that this morning, before dawn, the evil obstacle moved out, but it was also smart, but it was too clever. ”
"Ma'am, no!"
At this moment, suddenly, Topaz hurriedly ran in.
"What's the fuss, there are no rules, wait and get ten mouths in the torture room. Mrs. Zhao frowned and shouted.
"Madame Rao, just now it was the Yin of Yujing Mansion who sent the official over, saying that Zhao Han of our Hou Mansion robbed the master's property, ran away with murder, and was taken down on the spot by the guards of Princess Zhennan, and now he is in prison, and the case has been decided, and he will be exiled to the frontier for three thousand miles, and he will be enslaved by the armored people. ”
"What! you say it again!"
Mrs. Zhao stood up sharply.
Topaz said it again.
"It's the opposite, it's the opposite, that little evil obstacle is simply the opposite, where did he get such a big energy!" The lady screamed: "Sister, you just hand a note to Yujing Mansion and bring Zhao Han out." It must be that little evil obstacle framed, so we will overturn the case, get rid of his fame, and clean him up easily. ”
"Siyu, you go to visit Zhao Han in the prison, go and come back quickly, and report the situation. Mrs. Zhao sat down, turned her head and said, "Sister, this is Yujing, not the south." Moreover, this matter actually involved Princess Zhennan, and the reversal of the case will involve our two wealthy families in a lawsuit, which immediately shocked the government and the opposition, and even affected the diplomatic relations between Kamikaze and Daqian, so it can't be messed up. ”
After a while, Siyu came back to report: "Zhao Han was in the prison, his hand tendons were broken, his tendons were cut off, his tongue was also cut off, and he was severely punished, and he was speechless. ”
"What?" When Mrs. Zhao heard this, she slammed the table, and all the snacks on the table fell to the ground and shattered.
.....................................................................................................................
"Benefactor, Xiao Lao'er now knows how powerful the government is, and even Xiao Lao'er can't stand it, not to mention that Zhao Han was seriously injured, his hand tendons and leg tendons were picked, his tongue was cut, and he lost too much blood. ”
Outside the city, in the courtyard of Yujingguan.
The whole Yulong Mountain is the territory of Yujingguan, every year there are many people incense, worship God, play, Yujingguan also built a lot of courtyards, rented out, to the families of dignitaries and dignitaries to live, to earn silver.
Hong Yi spent money to rent here and live here temporarily, one is to have a good landscape, but the Taoist priest in the Yujing Temple, the master is like a cloud, what happened, it is also a protection.
Shen Tiezhu was holding an iron rod in his hand, standing in the courtyard zhōngyāng, and was excitedly practicing a posture, which was the kung fu in the middle of the Bull Demon Powerful Fist.
He was ten feet tall, as strong as a buffalo, and between his iron rods, he looked like a Vajra Lux.
And Xiao Mu was packing up in the room.
Shen Tianyang stood behind Hong Yi and watched Hong Yi draw out his Bull Demon Powerful Fist one move at a time, for Shen Tiezhu to watch.
A simple home, just like that, was formed temporarily.
