I directed the Xuanwumen Incident

Chapter 551 Desolate Hou Mansion, Rebellious Son Chokes His Father!

That night.

Within the Hou Mansion.

Hou Junji was imprisoned for a crime, and the originally prestigious Hou Mansion is now deserted and deserted.

Today's Hou family doesn't have the slightest image of a top prince.

Although the portal is large, it gives people a feeling of decay.

It seems that he is just an ordinary Chang'an native, and his life is at best better than that of ordinary people.

Da da.

With the support of his wife Liu Shi, Hou Junji walked slowly into the courtyard.

"This……"

Looking at the weeds in the garden and the dust on the beams, he couldn't help saying,

"Why such a ruin?"

"Is there no one to clean and maintain?"

Mrs. Liu shook her head sadly, and said in a low voice:
"Where is there still someone to clean? The servants and maids in the house have all been dismissed long ago, and only a few loyal ones still insist on staying at home."

"A big family needs to be taken care of, so how can we take care of those flowers and plants? Those furniture and beams, it's not bad if they can be cleaned once every three to five days. Naturally, they are not as glamorous as before."

Hou Junji fell silent.

He walked into the hall and asked again:
"What about my original properties? And the house I bought in the early years, what about those things?"

"With them, there is still no shortage of money, right? It doesn't mean that all the servants and maidservants will be dismissed, right?"

Liu's eyes turned red.

"You forgot... Our Hou family was raided?"

she quivered,

"Let's not talk about the property and the house, even the valuable antique calligraphy and paintings in the house have been searched and taken away, and the rest are some broken furniture."

"On this one mansion, the emperor gave us extra favors to give us a place to stay, otherwise... Chang'an won't be able to stay any longer, our family... will have to go out to beg for food..."

Hou Junji's expression was shocked.

Fists clenched slightly.But in the end, you can only let go.

"Okay... okay."

he whispered,

"It's hard for you, it's hard for you..."

"Then now... what do you live on?"

Liu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said:
"The emperor didn't copy too much. I kept some private money and it was not found out."

"In the past two years, I have lived on this private money, and now the money is almost used up, I don't know how to live..."

"In the past two days, I've been making plans to let a few loyal servants of my family go out to work as buddies, or start a small business to make ends meet... We people can't show our faces, otherwise, I'll go too..."

After a few words, the way is bleak.

As the wife of a prisoner, it's not bad that she didn't get sent to the teaching workshop.

If you want to maintain this family, you can only rely on private money. It is very difficult to increase income, so you can only save money.

Up to now, he even has to rely on a few servants at home!
How can it be so bitter?
"Ha ha ha ha ha……"

"I'm Hou Junji, what a fucking stick! What's the use of me getting so much money! What's the use of it!"

Hou Junji sneered, and suddenly stomped his feet!

boom!
This kick carried his remorse and secret hatred!
No matter how much family property, no matter how racking one's brains to collect money, what's the use?
A copy of the house copying order, copied cleanly!

He spent half his life as a soldier and fought for many years... but he returned as a prisoner.

His whole life... what did he live for!

What a failure to live!

Thinking of this, Hou Junji's nose was already sour, and two lines of tears fell.

"Okay, okay, don't cry..."

Seeing him crying, Mrs. Liu comforted him,

"After all, it is the emperor's grace to let you come back, even if it is only for a day."

"I asked someone to buy vegetables. You have suffered in the sky prison. Look at how thin you are... Today I will cook some meat dishes and have a good meal."

"I'll soak your feet tonight, get a good night's sleep, and go back to the dungeon in a decent way tomorrow..."

After some words, Hou Junji became more and more sad.

"I really don't want to go back to that ghostly place!"

He gritted his teeth,

"The emperor wanted to let me go, but he was worried about Xu Fenglei!"

"Damn, I don't believe that you can continue to be prosperous! Everyone will lose power, you wait, as long as I don't die... just wait for me!"

Hou Junji's hatred was all on Xu Fenglei!
What I look like now, and the embarrassment of my family members, are all thanks to Xu Fenglei!
Otherwise, with his status as a Conglong hero, no matter how corrupt he is, he wouldn't be in such a field!

"Okay! Stop talking nonsense!"

Mrs. Liu glanced reproachfully, then turned to look at the servant beside her, and ordered,

"Girl, go to my cabinet to get two strings of money, and then go to the market to buy some mutton, this time I will buy more."

"There are others, I'm looking to buy some too, the master wants to eat four dishes and one soup at night."

"Yes, ma'am." The maid turned and left.

Hou Junji sneered.

"Haha... Four dishes and one soup, back then, ten dishes and one soup were too little for me."

He laughed at himself,

"You too... When did you become so polite to the maid? Calling her is like calling your own daughter."

Liu shook her head.

"Tell me something that you may not like to hear. Now, I have to rely on them...you can't be polite?"

she sighed,

"Besides, they are indeed loyal. After all, they were servant girls of the government's government, and their lives are better than those of ordinary people."

"Now, they are really acting like cows and horses, and they have to serve me, Yu'er, and cook. One person is three people..."

Hou Junji nodded slightly.

"If I make a comeback in the future, I will repay you generously!"

He said in a low voice,

"You just said Yu'er... What is Hou Yu doing now? Has he missed his homework?"

When Mrs. Liu heard this question, she couldn't help sighing heavily, as if she was a few years older.

"what happened?"

Hou Junji's heart sank and he asked,

"Is something wrong with him?"

Hou Yu is his eldest son, and he is quite clever.

I have high hopes for him!

Now, I haven't seen him for two years. I don't know this kid...

"he……"

Just as Liu was about to speak, she saw her maid running in hastily.

"Ma'am, all the money in the cabinet is gone!"

She continued,
"The young master's wing room smells like smoke!"

Geek!

Mrs. Liu stood up abruptly, and said in a hurry:

"You bastard! He stole my money and went to smoke again!"

"That money is for his father to buy meat! Without this money, let our family drink the northwest wind!"

"Go... go find him! I'm going to die of anger, I'm really going to die of anger!"

After all, she quickly walked out of the hall.

Hou Junji's face sank like water, and he followed quickly.

East wing.

Before anyone arrived, a choking smell of smoke wafted over.

Bang!
Mrs. Liu pushed open the door of the wing room!

But I saw a young man lying on the bed, squinting his eyes and swallowing clouds.

"Hou Yu!"

Liu said angrily,

"You bastard! Did you steal my money to buy cigarettes again!"

"You, you don't know that your father is coming back today! You don't know that he has nothing to eat in prison, so he has to have a good meal when he comes back!"

"You...you stop for me!"

The more she talked, the angrier she became, and she stepped forward quickly, intending to snatch the cigarette from Hou Yu's hand.

"What are you doing!"

Hou Yu pulled away his mother's hand and scolded,

"Don't touch my cigarette!"

"If you spend the money, you spend it, anyway, you have to spend it! You might as well buy me cigarettes for that old thing!"

"Go away, don't bother me, I'm so annoying!"

What a disrespectful speech!Hearing this, Liu Shi became more and more anxious, and even his chest began to ache!
And Hou Junji was even more jealous!
"Bastard! How did you talk to your mother!"

He stepped forward suddenly, grabbed Hou Yu by the collar, and shouted,

"Who told you to smoke this! You ignorant thing!"

"I had high hopes for you in vain, Hou Yu, you have let me down so much! Do you still look like a human being like this!"

In Hou Junji's eyes, Hou Yu is simply a ruffian, a scoundrel!Even worse than that!
This rotten appearance made his teeth itch with anger!

"You let go!"

Hou Yu yanked and almost pulled Hou Junji down!
The former fierce general, because of two years of malnutrition, has no strength, but now he can't even control his own son!
"I don't know what to do, and I have high hopes? Shaote's mother is farting!"

Hou Yu took a puff of cigarette and said coldly,

"With a father like you, it's useless for me to learn anything!"

"Can I still be an official? Can I still stand out? My mother has to cover her face even when she goes out, for fear of being recognized as Hou Junji's son!"

"Shame! Shame, you know!"

"Old thing... Let me tell you, I have nothing else to do except smoking now! I just smoke, and I feel comfortable for a while! If I smoke to death, I will fall down!"

"You're fine, go back to the dungeon! What an eyesore at home!"

Hou Junji: "!!!"

For a moment, Hou Junji felt a wave of gloom in him rushing straight to the sky!

It's depression, not anger!

When people are extremely angry, they don't get angry, but like him, they can't take a breath, and they can die of anger!
"You! You...you bastard, you rebellious son!"

"I... I killed you, I killed you!"

Hou Junji made a whooping sound, and put his hands around Hou Yu's neck suddenly, trying to strangle him to death!

"Hou Yu! How did you talk to your father! He is your father!"

"Apologize to your father quickly, apologize to him quickly!"

Mrs. Liu was also anxious and yelled loudly.

She was used to her son's unruly and rude words, after all, she also felt a little guilty in her heart.

But she didn't expect that Hou Yu would talk to his father like this!

Is this what a son says to his father?

It's even a beast, it's not like this!
"Let him strangle me! Come on, come on, strangle me!"

"Anyway, I don't want to live anymore. It's meaningless to live. I'm so unlucky to be the son of you two!"

Hou Yu closed his eyes and stopped struggling.

"Hurry up, give it a good time! Hurry up and kill me."

"I beg you to kill me, anyway, this life was given by you, so I just give it back to you, I don't want to come to this ghostly place!"

Hou Junji pinched Hou Yu's neck fiercely!
But after hearing these words, his hands froze. At this moment, he seemed to have no strength left.

"I, I...uh!"

Hou Junji rolled his eyes and fell backwards.

"My lord! My lord!"

Crying, Mrs. Liu supported Hou Junji's body, and said eagerly,
"Hou Yu, come and help your father!"

"Quick!"

When Hou Yu heard the words, he just turned his neck and glanced indifferently.

"Mother, it would be better if he died."

he said,

"Dead, maybe our life will be easier, it's better than living with our tails between our legs every day."

"Ah."

After putting down his words, Hou Yu stopped looking at Hou Junji, turned around and left.

"You bastard!"

Liu choked with tears, but couldn't support Hou Junji with all his strength, so he fell to the ground together with him.

boom!
The couple fell to the ground, and the house was still filled with smoke.

Fortunately, the movement here attracted the few remaining domestic servants.

They helped Hou Junji up, pinched him in a hurry to treat him, fetched water and set fire, tried their best to wake up Hou Junji.

In the past, there was a live-in doctor in the family.

Then something happened, how could I afford a doctor?This kind of first aid... can only be done by yourself according to the local method.

After working for a long time, he finally woke up Hou Junji.

He slowly opened his eyes.

That look suddenly seemed to have aged 30 years, becoming an old man who was about to die.

"Master, master..."

"Woooooooo..."

Finally, Mrs. Liu couldn't hold back any longer, and threw herself on Hou Junji's body and cried loudly.

All the slaves also started to cry, it was even more desolate against the background of this desolate scene.

"I...it's fine..."

"You let me sleep for a while, I want to sleep for a while..."

Hou Junji waved his hand weakly, and after saying this, he closed his eyes again.

"well……"

Mrs. Liu supported him, sobbing,
"You guys help me, send the master to my house..."

……

That night.

Hou Junji smelled a smell, opened his eyes, and sat up from the bed.

In the wing room, only one candle was lit, and there was only half of the candle left, the light was very dim.

Sitting at the table, Mrs. Liu stared blankly out of the window, weeping silently.

On the table, there were several vegetarian dishes with some slices of meat in them, which could barely be regarded as meaty.

"lady……"

Hou Junji stood up and shouted.

Before, he never called his wife, he always called her by her first name.

"Ah... Master, you are awake."

Mrs. Liu wiped her face, hurried forward and said,

"I made some side dishes for you just now... The family raised some money and bought some meat."

"There's still a bottle of wine...it's not a good thing, you drink it first, and I'll heat up some food for you."

After she finished speaking, she was about to stand up, but Hou Junji shook his head.

"No need, just eat like this."

he whispered,

"You are tired, we husband and wife... have a good meal and talk."

"Come."

Mrs. Liu nodded, and handed the bowl and chopsticks to Hou Junji's hands.

"Yu'er, he..."

She was about to speak, but Hou Junji shook his hand.

"Don't mention him to me, I'll pretend I don't have this son."

He said coldly,

"Hide the money in the future and let him fend for himself!"

When Mrs. Liu heard the words, she could only remain silent, as if she had acquiesced.

What Hou Yu did today also made her, a mother, completely chilled!

"Tell me about the situation at home."

Hou Junji casually took a bite of food and said,

"Where's your daughter? What are you doing now? Didn't several families come to propose marriage before? After my accident, no one should dare to propose marriage again, right?"
