Hu Qiang's Decision

Chapter 221 How can I have the guts to divorce you?

"I said husband, can you stop spinning around like a donkey pulling a mill! My head is dizzy! Bah!"

After hearing this familiar voice, Hu Qiang was stunned for a moment, opened his eyes, and immediately froze again.

Because he discovered that he was actually wearing the official uniform of an ancient petty official, standing outside an ancient city wall.

Turning his head again, he saw Ouyang Murphy, dressed in an ancient woman's attire, standing impatiently eating melon seeds.

What she said just now was the sound of her vigorously spitting out melon seeds.

"What's the situation? I've time-traveled again?"

As soon as I thought of this, I found that Ouyang Murphy in the ancient costume spit out a mouthful of melon seeds, squinted at Hu Qiang, and said impatiently:

"What are you looking at? Look at your cowardly look!

Why don't the old emperor treat you to a meal?

Are you moaning and sighing all day long, running around in a panic?
Don't wander around, it's annoying to watch! "

Hu Qiang blinked, but before he could figure out what the situation was, he was in a trance for a while, and then he automatically said:

"Oh my lady, please keep your voice down, what kind of emperor is old... Well, I want to call you the Holy Majesty! Are you afraid of losing your head if you talk so loudly?"

As soon as the voice fell, Ouyang Murphy in the costume version immediately said loudly nonchalantly:

"What, you will lose your head if you babble a few words? Can he keep the reputation of the emperor's old man? Can't he be scolded to death?"

Hu Qiang hurriedly persuaded: "Be quiet, don't shout!

Oh my lady, since ancient times, being with a king is like being with a tiger.

Why do you think His Majesty suddenly invited us to dinner by name?It doesn't make sense at all!

So how do you look at it, this is all a grand banquet, I guess I will definitely be done with it. "

Speaking of this, Hu Qiang took out a letter from his arms: "Madam, please keep this."

The ancient costume version of Ouyang Murphy spit out a mouthful of melon seeds again, and took the letter: "What is this?"

Hu Qiang said: "Madam, last night, I wrote a suicide note overnight. After I die, all property will belong to you. You can take my inheritance and find a good family. You don't have to be a widow for me."

Ouyang Murphy frowned, and calmly tore up the letter.

Hu Qiang was startled: "Hey, madam, what are you doing?"

Ouyang Murphy threw the torn letter away casually, and then impatiently said to Hu Qiang:
"Surnamed Hu, do you think the black hat on your head is too small and insist on me putting another hat on you?

Besides, you don't look at your own virtues!
Killing you as a nine-rank sesame official, does the old emperor need a Hongmen Banquet? "

Hu Qiang immediately looked serious: "Hey, ma'am, we agreed before that we should not discuss my official position in public and in front of people."

Ouyang Murphy raised his eyebrows, looked back and forth, and said loudly, "In front of you? Is there anyone else here?"

As soon as the words were finished, a group of red-clothed soldiers standing guard behind them turned their heads to look at Ouyang Murphy.

Hu Qiang quickly turned around and bowed to the group of soldiers, and waited for the group of soldiers to turn their heads again before saying to Ouyang Murphy:

"Oh madam, please calm down, this place is not like being in the yamen, it's the gate of the palace! Arranging the emperor casually, it will be troublesome if you are heard."

"What's the big deal?" Ouyang Murphy said, "What's wrong with the gate of the imperial palace? Isn't it just a group of people guarding the gate, and they don't let people talk? Let's not let people talk. Do you still want to learn from King Zhou Li? Is the road impossible to follow?"

Hu Qiang sighed: "By the way, madam, do you know that ever since I knew the old emperor, no, ever since I knew that the Holy Majesty was going to invite us to dinner, I have been having nightmares every night lately.

I once dreamed of myself, working in a messy room, what else is that room called, an office! "

"Office?" Ouyang Murphy, the costume version, frowned, and immediately said impatiently, "Isn't that the yamen? Don't fool me with new words! Do you really think I can't read?"

Hu Qiang said: "No, listen to me carefully."

"Okay, tell me." Ouyang Murphy continued eating sunflower seeds, "Let's see what flowers you can come up with."

Only then did Hu Qiang put his hand behind his back, and said with a long sigh: "In that place called the office, there is also a woman who looks exactly like you. ..."

Speaking of this, Hu Qiang shut up suddenly, turned his head and looked at Ouyang Murphy who was looking at him with a calm expression.

After blinking, Hu Qiang hurriedly put his arms around her shoulders and smiled apologetically: "Madam, don't get me wrong, the woman in the dream is a bad woman, she is maliciously attacking me, unlike you, I know you hate iron and steel, you actually You've always cared about me, haven't you?"

Ouyang Mofei quickly pushed Hu Qiang away with a look of disgust on his face: "Go, go, who cares about you? I wish you would lose your head quickly so that I can remarry quickly!"

"Oh ma'am, don't be angry." Hu Qiang continued to persuade with an apologetic smile, "I said it was a dream, it was just a dream."

"Huh!" Ouyang Murphy curled his lips, "I think about it every day and dream at night, I think you just dislike me and want to take this opportunity to divorce me so that you can find another female vixen!"

"That can't!" Hu Qiang said hastily, "How can other women be as good-looking as you?

Anyway, in my eyes, other women are not as young as you, not as beautiful as you, and not as white as your legs...

Uh, no, what I mean is, I despise anyone, and I dare not despise you, madam!

How could I have the guts to divorce you?

This is not because I want to have dinner with the Holy Majesty. I am afraid that if something happens to me, I don’t want you to be a widow for me, so I gave you the letter of divorce in advance. I don’t want to involve you, and you tore it up. "

"Hmph!" Ouyang Murphy pouted lightly, then said with a straight face again while eating melon seeds.

"Who knows what you think, you'll coax me with rustic witticisms!
I see you, this mouth can still be used all over the body!
Madam, I really regret that I was blind at the beginning and fell in love with such a wretch like you! "

"Yes, yes, yes." Hu Qiang continued to apologize, "Madam calm down, I will work hard to be a good young and promising official in the future!"

"Damn!" Ouyang Murphy immediately spat out the melon seeds on the ground, "You are still young and promising, is that a word to describe you?"

Hu Qiang blinked and was about to say something when he suddenly saw a group of people running over.

"Sir, here we come!"

Hu Qiang turned his head to look, and was taken aback again, because he found that the people who came running were very familiar to him.

Isn't this Su Kejie, Jin Ruoyu, Sha Lele and Pang Xiaobai?
It's just that these people are all dressed in ancient clothes at this time, and there is no modern style at all.

"You, you..." Hu Qiang was in a trance again, "Why did you come here?"

Hearing this, Su Kejie, who was dressed as an ancient master, suddenly opened his folding fan, and said calmly while fanning the fan:
"My lord, as a teacher, I have countless wanted criminal notices every day. This morning, the Ministry of Criminal Justice even added extra work for me temporarily. It is already very good to be able to come here now."

Hu Qiang shook his head, and looked at Jin Ruoyu, who was holding a wooden basin and dressed in an ancient and simple maid costume: "Ruoyu, Master Su is busy with official duties, what's the matter with you? Why are you here so late?"

Jin Ruoyu said with a look of resentment: "Eh, I have to wash the clothes for those adults every day. There are so many clothes. The old ones are not washed well, and the new ones are coming again. I can't finish washing them no matter what! I'm so busy, can I come here at this time? , it's pretty good."

Hu Qiang shook his head again, and looked at Sha Lele who was dressed as a servant: "What about you, Xiao Sha? Also, why do you smell so bad?"

Sha Lele, who was dressed as a servant, said loudly: "Master, the military department temporarily asked me to pick up horse manure at the horse farm. I just ran over after picking up horse manure. Fortunately, I was able to catch up, hehehe."

Hu Qiang sighed, didn't even shake his head, and looked directly at the last Pang Xiaobai who was dressed as an ancient butcher.

Seeing that Hu Qiang was looking at him, Pang Xiaobai immediately raised up a piece of pork in each of his hands: "My lord, as a butcher in the yamen, I have to kill eighty pigs every day. Look, there is still a pile of pork here that has not been delivered yet." !"

Hu Qiang sighed heavily: "It seems that everyone is not easy. I am so busy every day, and I have to take time out of my busy schedule to eat. It is really hard."

Everyone nodded together, seeming to agree with Hu Qiang's words.

At this moment, a father-in-law suddenly walked out and shouted at Hu Qiang and others, "Is everyone here?"

Hu Qiang turned his head to look, and was taken aback again.

Because he found out that this father-in-law was also an acquaintance, and it turned out to be Lannifu!
"Hello, Eunuch Fu!" Master Su put away his folding fan first, and bowed to his clasped fists, "Good luck, Eunuch Fu!"

Only then did Hu Qiang understand that he was not Lannifu, but Eunuch Fu.

At this time, Eunuch Fu nodded calmly to Master Su, and after looking at the crowd, he said coldly: "Since everyone is here, follow me into the palace to meet you, the emperor is waiting for you!"

After finishing speaking, Eunuch Fu turned around with a wave of the floating dust, twisted his hips and waist, and walked towards the gate of the city first with a charming posture.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and quickly followed, not daring to talk nonsense anymore.

The same is true for Hu Qiang, surrounded by everyone, walking forward in a daze, like a dream.

After a while, Hu Qiang and others were led into a hall by Eunuch Fu.

When they came in, everyone listened to Eunuch Fu's instructions and kept their heads down. Then, as soon as they arrived, Eunuch Fu asked them to kowtow to the Holy Majesty.

Everyone had to kneel on the ground together.

Then Hu Qiang, who was kneeling at the front, suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the minister, the Ministry of Industry, has nothing to do with the overall situation, the small department, Hu Qiang, the head of the urgent matter, miscellaneous matter, and small matter handling department, and all the staff, came here for the banquet. You can leave it to us!"

As soon as I said this, everyone in the back said together: "I love to throw things away!"

Hu Qiang continued: "Your Majesty, we will take any bad things seriously!"

Everyone behind said together again: "Ge Wu Ao Guo!"

Hu Qiang said again: "Long live Your Majesty!"

"Long live!" Everyone suddenly fell to the ground and shouted.

At this time, a familiar voice said: "Pingshen!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Everyone said together.

After that, Hu Qiang raised his head to look, and was immediately taken aback.

Because he discovered that the emperor's old man sitting on the dragon chair and wearing a dragon robe, was actually... Tang Haixing?

Just when Hu Qiang was stunned, he sat on the dragon chair and hugged the emperor left and right, no, Tang Haixing waved his hands impatiently: "Okay, okay, since we are here, let's start quickly, let's go early Open the table, end it early!"

After finishing speaking, Tang Haixing no longer cared about Hu Qiang and others, and continued to play with the three concubines beside him.

Eunuch Fu next to him bent down to Tang Haixing with a flattering face and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

After finishing speaking, Eunuch Fu straightened up, immediately turned into a cold face, and said to Hu Qiang and others who were still kneeling on the ground: "Didn't you listen to what your majesty said? Hurry up and get up!"

Only then did Hu Qiang stand up, and then divided into two rows and stood on both sides.

Immediately afterwards, a group of young eunuchs came in, those who moved the tables moved the tables, and those who moved the stools moved the stools, and the tables and chairs were quickly arranged.

After the little eunuchs all retreated, Eunuch Fu waved the floating dust: "Why are you standing there, just sit down!"

Hu Qiang and the others looked at each other in dismay, then bowed and clasped fists to Tang Haixing who was still playing with the three concubines: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After shouting this, everyone sat down in two rows.

Next, a group of court ladies came in with delicious food and wine, and they all placed the food on the table in front of everyone.

Looking at the delicious food and wine on the table, except for Hu Qiang who was still frowning and always felt that something was wrong, everyone else was surprised. It was obvious that they were all happy with the delicious food and wine bestowed by the emperor.

Just when all the palace maids withdrew and closed the door, Tang Haixing, who was sitting high on the dragon chair, suddenly frowned, raised his nose a few times and said:
"Huh? Why do I smell a strange smell?

Could it be that some beloved concubine has developed a new type of perfume with a strange smell?

Exciting concubine?
Concubine Li?

Concubine? "

Seeing the three concubines shaking their heads, Tang Haixing, who was dressed as the emperor, frowned again: "None of you, so where did this strange smell come from?"

At this moment, Eunuch Fu bent over and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the strange smell you smell is from the people in the Department of Emergency, Broken, Miscellaneous, and Small Matters of the Ministry of Industry. smell."

Tang Haixing frowned: "What's the job? Why is the name so long?"

Eunuch Fu hurriedly said again: "Your Majesty, if it's... the abbreviation, it's called the Department of Disruption!"

"Department of Disruption?" Tang Haixing frowned at Eunuch Fu, "Is there still such a department under my subordinates?"

Eunuch Fu nodded with a smile: "Didn't you just say that?"

Tang Haixing sighed and shook his head slightly.

Seeing Tang Haixing like this, Eunuch Fu narrowed his eyes: "Understood, Your Majesty means..."

Speaking of this, Eunuch Fu slapped his neck with his hand, meaning to kill them all.

Seeing this scene, everyone in the incident department sitting below, except for Hu Qiang who was frowning tightly, leaned back tactically, all showing expressions of fear.

"Hey!" Tang Haixing waved his hand suddenly, and said in authentic Henan dialect, "I have just inherited the great rule, and it is the time when I rule the world with benevolence and virtue. It is not appropriate to kill people at every turn."

Hearing this, everyone in the incident department collectively breathed a sigh of relief.

But Tang Haixing, who was on the dragon chair, said again at this time: "However, the former emperor's subjects are indeed old and not capable enough. They should indeed be eliminated."

After hearing this, everyone in the incident department became tense again.

Seeing the nervousness of the people below, Tang Haixing raised his chin and smiled slightly:
"Hey, look at how scared you are!

Don't be nervous, don't be afraid, we don't talk about business today, the important thing is to eat and get to know everyone! "

After finishing speaking, Tang Haixing put down his arms around the concubine, picked up the chopsticks and said to the people in the emergency department: "Come on, take the chopsticks, you are always nagging, don't be polite!"

After saying this, Tang Haixing took the initiative to pick up a chopstick dish on the table in front of him with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

Seeing Tang Haixing's style, everyone in the emergency department picked up the chopsticks and carefully picked up the vegetables to eat.

Suddenly, Hu Qiang, who had been frowning and thinking hard, suddenly realized that he had been kicked on the back of his left foot.

Turning his head, he saw Ouyang Murphy beside him holding a bowl and winking at him.

Seeing that Hu Qiang was still in a daze, Ouyang Murphy suddenly posted over and whispered:

"Sir, you are stupid!

The emperor's old man treats guests, and he has already moved his chopsticks to eat, but you don't move.

You don't want to lose face like this, because you are too impatient to live, do you want me to remarry earlier?

Take the chopsticks and serve the bowl quickly, and eat quickly! "

After hearing these words, Hu Qiang, who was still in a daze, nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, what Madam said is true."

After finishing speaking, Hu Qiang quickly picked up the bowl in front of him, and drank the soup with a sigh.

Well, it tastes good, it's black-bone chicken soup.

But strange, why is this smell so familiar?

Like where did you drink it before?
Wait, black chicken soup with angelica and wolfberry?
