Starting from the Western Han Dynasty

Chapter 162 The second part of Anyang Hou Wei’s costume
Li Huan first glanced at Huo Qubing beside him, as if he was estimating how many people Huo Qubing could hit. After thinking about it for a while, he remembered that if these people came together, Huo Qubing could be dispatched with three punches and two kicks.

Then, he glanced in a certain direction. There were all his guards over there. They put on coarse cloth and rags and pretended to be ordinary people. There was a faint tendency to surround them at this moment.

Li Huan glanced at Xiao Zui, who had pale cheeks, slowly shook his head and said, "I can't leave, I'll send some money out, maybe it can save me from disaster..."

When Xiao Zui heard this, his eyes trembled a few times and he didn't dare to say anything.

"You guys, we are merchants who have come from out of town and plan to do some small business here. This meal with me is my first visit to this valuable land, so I will honor your tea money!"

They had all put down their water bowls and were about to stand up and stretch their muscles. Huo Qubing, who had broken the ribs of these people, was filled with surprise when he heard this. He thought he had been poisoned by the mutton soup he drank and had poisoned himself to the point of death. It's upside down and hallucinating!

My father, when did he become so cowardly... No, this is not cowardice, this is wanting... Huo Qubing thought of a word Li Huan once said - pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger.

Therefore, Huo Qubing also decided to feel it out. Is it really more comfortable to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger than to beat these bastards to death with his fists?

The officer couldn't help but be stunned when he saw that the man in front of him was so polite and looked at Cuihua. They all said that they would not hit the smiling person with their hands, but...

"Snapped!"

The guard suddenly slapped the old wooden table covered with starch, and the bowls and chopsticks on it jumped up in fright, and then fell heavily, causing soup and water to splash everywhere.

"Insolent! Merchant? Are you waiting for news?"

The man yelled angrily. After seeing a look of hesitation on Li Huan's face, he immediately stood up and said with a ferocious smile: "Brothers, come to work!"

The remaining four guards immediately stood up with a ferocious smile and looked at Li Huan with unkind eyes.

The so-called biography is Luyin, which is equivalent to an ancient identity certificate.

Li Huanxin said, I really don’t have such a thing... No, yes, I came here just because I was called. I wanted to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger, but now I am afraid I can only be exposed...

"Of course there is a legend about my husband." Na Zeng thought, just when Li Huan was about to throw a cup as a signal and let Huo Qubing knock the heads of these five people away, Cuihua suddenly took out a few wooden signs from her sleeves... …

This is the biography, which records each person's name, physical characteristics, whether he is serving in the military, his place of origin, the official who issued the biography, the time and date, etc.

The official hesitated for a moment and reached out to touch Cuihua's hand while taking the pass, but Li Huan had already grabbed a bunch of passes and handed them to the officer with a smile.

Zhang Qian couldn't help but look at Sima Qian. He felt that these five officers were dead, but he couldn't understand why Li Huan could endure it until now.

If the purpose of disguising one's identity and going out incognito is to find out the true sentiments of the people, then now...

"Well, maybe Junhou has had enough of the feeling of being superior. Everyone who sees him usually pays homage to him. Maybe he just wants to experience what it feels like to be bullied and humiliated!" Something suddenly popped up in Sima Qian's mind. Got a strange idea...

Coincidentally, Zhang Qian actually thought so in his heart...

The guard examined the pass ferociously, and then threw it on the table with a strange expression. There was nothing wrong with it.

"Your horse?" When he was at a loss what to do, he suddenly noticed the horses tied next to him. His eyes suddenly turned cold and he looked at Li Huan fiercely.

"There is also a story about horses!" Cuihua rolled up a series of bamboo slips from her sleeves.

Li Huan still smiled and grabbed it in his hand and handed it to the officer.

There was something strange about the guard. After reading it and confirming that there was nothing wrong, another guard next to him suddenly came to his ear and whispered something in a low voice.

The idea that the servant had been extinguished suddenly came to his mind. He reached out and knocked on the table. Huo Qubing finally restrained his urge to punch this bastard to death.

"Perhaps you don't know that the owner of this place, Marquis Anyang, has arrived. He wants to build a marquis mansion, so we have requisitioned your horses. By the way, you are all merchants. Report to the Yamen with us immediately. You have been requisitioned. ”

"Why?" Sima Qian stood up suddenly. Li Huan thought he was angry, but turned his head and said, "I'm scared, but I still want to speak."

This made Li Huan's eyes light up immediately. This is a good brother. He behaves like a real businessman than himself.

Sima Qian argued vigorously: "Although we are merchants, to recruit us for service requires the government of our place of origin to issue an order. Moreover, our people and our horses have theirs. You are clearly bullying foreigners."

"Bullying foreigners?" The officer laughed loudly, his arrogance clearly revealed: "Common man, you don't know how to write the word "death"? Let me tell you bluntly, today we are recruiting you to work for the Marquis, and it is to make your ancestral graves red. You are blessed only with cigarettes, if you dare to say one more word, I will break your legs!"

The other four guards suddenly looked at everyone fiercely.

"This little girl!" The officer pointed at Cuihua: "You, come with us to cook. There is a shortage of cooks at Mr. Hou's construction site."

Cuihua wanted to look nervous, but suddenly her acting skills were poor. She burst out laughing, then covered her mouth and looked like she was scared.

The five officers immediately felt humiliated. They raised their whips and whipped Cuihua.

"Run!" Li Huan shouted, excitedly picked up Cuihua, turned around and ran away.

Before everyone on the side had recovered, Li Huan and Cuihua had already jumped on the horse.

Huo Qubing, who was about to take action, moved out of the way dejectedly, avoiding the whip. Just as he was about to jump away, he suddenly saw Xiaozui kneeling on the spot in fright at this ferocious scene, not daring to move at all. Trembling all over.

Huo Qubing immediately grabbed him, and grabbed the little drunk by his old clothes, lifted him up, jumped on the horse, and galloped away in an instant.

This scene was so sudden that the disguised guards on the side were already ready to rush forward and chop the five officers into pieces, but Li Huanlai did this...

As a result, everyone who had just taken a few steps forward turned around and fled after Li Huan's horse...

Seeing everyone galloping away on horseback, the five officers' faces were full of rage.

"Rebellion! How dare a mere merchant have such courage to go back and call for help immediately? These merchants and untouchables are so bold that they want to rebel!"

The five whimpering servants yelled and left the place. The other real merchants were all trembling with fear, and some were even so frightened that they could hardly breathe.

At this moment, Li Huan and others had already galloped away into the distance.

Li Huan laughed and grabbed the reins. Looking back, everyone was rushing towards them. He was a little surprised especially when he saw Huo Qubing holding Xiao Zui in his hand.

Originally, he had thought that Xiao Zui was a local, and if he and the others ran away, the police would not embarrass her, but then he thought that Huo Qubing had thought more carefully than he did, and brought her over directly.

Huo Qubing got off his horse and gently turned the Xiao Zui he was holding on the ground.

After flying all the way over, Xiao Zui, who was feeling extremely excited and was about to say something, suddenly felt his stomach spinning. He couldn't help but half-knelt on the ground, and occasionally vomited.

When Cuihua saw it, she hurriedly jumped off the horse, patted Xiaozui's back gently, and even took off her own water bottle to rinse Xiaozui's mouth.Xiaozui looked at the vomited mutton and laughed dryly: "What a pity..."

Huo Qubing frowned, felt a little disgusted, and took a few steps back. He thought of the scene where he fed Cao Xiang the old food, and felt cold on the soles of his feet for no reason. She would pick it up and eat it, right?

"I'll treat you to a feast later!" Cuihua understands Xiaozui's psychology very well. She was once the person who almost fell into the endless abyss.

"Thank you..." Xiaozui stood firm and looked at Li Huan: "Master, please leave here quickly, otherwise the officials will catch you, and the consequences may be disastrous..." She hesitated and glanced at the kind-hearted Cuihua: "We It is normal for the officials in Anyang to feed the common people, but they have taken a fancy to your wife and want to rob her."

"Alas..." Xiaozui sighed: "These people are already vicious enough, but now that Marquis Anyang is here, I'm afraid the days ahead will be even more miserable."

Li Huan scratched his scalp: "Maybe Marquis Anyang is a good official?"

"How can there be a good official in this world?" Xiao Zui shook his head: "Hurry up, I'm just a prostitute, and I'll be fine with them for a few nights at most. If it's too late, they'll wait for you at the entrance and exit of the tower. When the time comes, I won’t be able to leave.”

Li Huan thought for a while, then raised his hand and threw another silver ingot to Xiaozui: "That's okay, I've caused you some trouble this time, so we'll leave first. We'll see you again in the future..."

Finally, Li Huan said again: "Perhaps Marquis Anyang is really a good official?"

Xiaozui got the silver ingot, feeling happy and just nodded: "The uncle is right, Marquis Anyang may be a good official..."

Everyone trotted and disappeared at the end of the street. Xiao Zui happily held the silver and looked around. Seeing that no one was paying attention, he quickly stuffed it into the inner pocket of his ragged clothes. When he touched the money that Li Huan had given him before, After holding a piece of silver ingot, the smile on his face suddenly became as sweet as honey.

"Where did you get the biography?" Li Huan asked curiously.

Cuihua smiled and said: "I heard that the master was going to go on patrol incognito, so I specially asked someone to prepare it. Didn't I expect that it would actually be used?"

"What a good wife!" Li Huan laughed and praised, "However, this little drunk... let people pay attention, this woman has got so much money, if the guards see it, it will be bad if they have bad thoughts."

Sima Qian was shocked: "Junhou, your taste has changed too quickly, right?"

After Huo Qubing and Zhang Qian heard this, they looked at Li Huan with their mouths wide open. The look in their eyes made Li Huan almost ashamed.

"What are you doing? Oops!" Li Huan's scalp went numb: "Am I that kind of person?"

Everyone was silent and just looked at Li Huan with their eyes. After all, this guy likes other people's wives. If his taste really gets worse, it would really be...

"Cuihua, you always believe me, right?"

Cuihua's face turned red: "Master, Cuihua is always ready to have more sisters to serve the master..."

"Are you crazy? Are you?" Li Huan pulled the reins and was about to walk away, but after hesitating for a moment, he still ordered: "Send someone to keep an eye on us!"

Huo Qubing responded with a rather complicated expression: "I will personally lead people to keep an eye on it!"

"You..." Li Huan wanted to explain, but seeing the eyes of everyone looking at him with tinted glasses, he sneered with disdain, waved his hands and said: "Everyone is drunk but I am sober, everyone is turbid and drunk. I am alone! How can you ordinary people know what I am thinking? Besides, I, Li Huan, have done everything I have done in my life, so why do I need to explain it to you?"

"Why are you so angry?" Wei Shao'er asked curiously while undressing Li Huan.

Li Huan looked at the hot water rising in the bathtub with a slightly complicated expression: "I saw how difficult the people's livelihood in Anyang County was... Qu Yuan once said that he took a long breath to cover his tears and mourned the hardship of the people's livelihood. When I read it, I always felt that this guy It’s artificial, now I really see it with my own eyes…”

"Hurry up and take a bath. According to what Sister Shengxue said, medicinal powder is added here. After soaking, the mosquitoes will stop biting. When my mother and I came here during the day, we had already taken a bath... Go to the sick place Where is the child? Anyang is not as good as Chang'an, so don't be too wild..."

"My son is old and has his own ideas... Besides, this is his father's fiefdom. He can do whatever he wants. Why should he be afraid?" Li Huan leaned comfortably in the tub. The effect of the potion made him feel all over. There was a feeling of transparency up and down, and I even couldn't help but cry out.

"It's so comfortable... Is this powder enough? Can everyone who came to Anyang with us take a dip?"

Wei Shao'er sat on the edge of the tub and couldn't help laughing: "How could that be possible... You haven't noticed that we have a bathtub for bathing at home. Even if I want to come in and take a bath with you..."

"Husband, people's livelihood here is difficult, is there a way to change it?"

"Yes!" Li Huan said firmly: "Didn't Lanhua and the other barbarians have nothing when they came down from the mountain? How rich is our Marquis Manor now? Everyone can see it... Let someone give it to Brother Ziwen and Tai Shiling In the past, they couldn't stand the mosquitoes here. One bite would cause a big lump, which was painful, itchy and swollen..."

"I've already given my orders..." Wei Shao'er said with a sweet smile: "It's not early, so I'm going to make the bed first, for fear that Alang won't be used to sleeping in the small house here!"

"How is that possible?" Li Huan smiled knowingly: "Don't fall asleep, or I'll wake you up later!"

Wei Shao'er's eyebrows were full of spring, and he retreated with a smile.

"Are you really squatting here?" Sima Qian looked at Huo Qubing sitting at the window in shock.

They were next to a second-story window. From this position, they could see the dilapidated house where Xiao Zui lived.

Xiao Zui, who got the money, closed the door and cooked a big pot of pork with three dirty children.

The pigs here are not castrated and taste very fishy, ​​but Xiao Zui and the three dirty children ate them happily.

Of course, they never imagined that it was Huo Qubing who arranged for the soldiers to tell the people in the county government that they had taken a liking to this little drunk, and they all booked a place here tonight. It was precisely for this reason that the five were stunned. The servants didn’t dare to come over and look for trouble.

Of course, Anyang County has already issued an ultimatum and deployed manpower to arrest those daring businessmen.

Seeing that Huo Qubing didn't say anything and was still staring at Xiao Zui, mother and son, Sima Qian couldn't help but ask again.

"Why are you going to the doctor? Are you so fascinated?"

He is like half of Huo Qubing's teacher, so their names are not interchangeable.

"It's nothing, I just thought of some past events." Huo Qubing shook his head. After the medicinal bath, his body exuded a strange smell. It was neither unpleasant nor unpleasant. Mosquitoes really didn't bite.

Sima Qian didn't quite trust the work of the Hun female doctor, so he lit mugwort. The room was filled with the smoky smell of mugwort, and it became a no-go zone for mosquitoes.

Huo Qubing did not look away, but his tone was low: "Sima Gong, do you think my uncle is a noble person?"

Sima Qian couldn't help laughing: "Although there are many dignitaries in the world today, there are only a handful of people like your uncle. He is already the most dignified person in the world."

Huo Qubing suddenly stretched out a finger, pointed at the mother and son in the dilapidated courtyard, and choked up strangely: "My uncle was so miserable when he was a child!"
