Emperor of the Immortal Dynasty

(third more)

Hearing this, Xiao Hou frowned, but still stopped in his tracks.

"What else?"

"Sir, are you really willing to leave like this?"

Looking at Xiao Hou, An Bochen asked calmly.

"how do I say this?"

"Mr. has been the housekeeper for Mr. Li for so many years. When he came out of the mountain, he was a white man. After eight years, he still has no fame. He can only bring a bag of treasures to become a rich man. Are you really willing?"

After the words fell, Xiao Hou's arms trembled violently, and a deep sense of unwillingness floated in his eyes, which he calmed down in an instant, pretending to be calm.

Observing the words and expressions, An Bochen was secretly happy, knowing that his words hit Xiaohou's weakness, so he continued immediately.

"Mr. is a man of great wisdom. It is really inferior to spend a lifetime with only a little money."

"Hmph, what you said is easy, what can I do if the old man is down here?"

The old man blushed slightly, Xiao Hou snorted coldly, dropped his robe sleeves heavily, and turned around to leave.

"I have a way. If it succeeds, it may be possible for Mr. to embark on an official career."

One foot had already stepped out of the stairs, but it was fixed in the air, and it did not fall for a long time. Xiao Hou turned around, looked at An Bochen with a cold face, and opened his mouth after a long time.

"Come on."

"With Mr. Xiao's means, he must have known that Mr. Li has fallen into the hands of Huo Guogong. If he can be taken back, he will continue to be a puppet. With Mr. Li's reputation and connections in the court and the public, it is not a sentence to want Mr. Xiao to be an official. Talking things."

As soon as An Bochen finished speaking, the old man on the opposite side raised his head and laughed.

"Who are you as Lord Huo? Where is your mansion? Hmph, there are dragon pools and tiger lairs, and mosquitoes can't come out even if they fly in, not to mention you little servant boy..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by An Bochen.

"Mr. Xiao doesn't know that Prime Minister Zuo has secretly adjusted the rations of the Jinwu Guards, intending to use this to force Huo Guogong. The Duke still doesn't know about it now, and the young master has secretly collected the rations a few days ago, and left the ration order hidden in a A secret place. As long as Bochen exchanges this, the military situation is urgent, and the Duke of Lai will not hold on to a fake Young Master Li, not to mention that the disappearance of Young Master Li will do him a hundred harms and no benefit."

Hearing An Bochen's eloquent talk, Xiao Hou's expression gradually eased.

"How did you know?"

"Bo Chen has read Mr. Li's secret letter this morning."

Seeing that Xiao Hou was still hesitant, An Bochen took a step forward and said in a deep voice.

"Mr. Xiao is still hesitating. At worst, wait until dawn. If Bochen can't turn around, then Bochen is dead, and you can leave. If Bochen is lucky enough to bring Mr. Li back, everyone will be very happy. As far as Mr. Yu is concerned, There are all benefits but no harm, why not give it a try?"

There was a flash of splendor in Sanjiao's eyes, Xiao Hou blushed, as if he had finally made up his mind, he clenched his fists suddenly.

"Okay! Since Bochen didn't hesitate to go deep into the tiger's den, so what if Xiao waited until dawn."

"So, it's a deal."

Arching his hands towards Xiao Hou, An Bochen looked at the sky, took a deep breath and said.

"It's getting late, so Bo Chen is going to the Duke's Mansion."

After finishing speaking, An Bochen didn't stay any longer, passed Xiao Hou, and hurried downstairs.

"Be careful, Bochen!"

Standing at the window, looking at the young man rushing into the night, Xiao Hou blushed and called out in a low voice.

The moonlight was hazy, covering the window lattice like a layer of falling frost. As Amber Chen drifted away, the fiery color on the old man's face gradually faded, and it became gloomy like water.

"Hmph, I don't know the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth, but I pretend to be smart."

Flicking back his skirt, Xiao Hou sat down leisurely, picked up the teapot beside him and filled it with tea.

After drinking a cup, Xiao Hou stretched comfortably, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Indeed, after serving Mr. Li for eight years, how could this old man be willing to leave just like that. But now that the current situation in the Liu Kingdom is in chaos, how can this old man be willing to become a small official and continue to flatter and flatter him."

The night wind diffused into the window lattice, blowing and curling the old man's long white hair, and there was a black mark on his temple, which was usually hidden deeply, with the word "matching" written on it.

The black seal will only appear on two types of people, one is the death row prisoner, and the other is the unpardonable repeat offender, but for Xiao Hou, this black seal is a medal that records his glorious history.He was born in Qi State by the West Sea, but he is not a hermit in Zhongnan Mountain, and he has no ambition of self-cultivation, Qi family and world peace.In the past, Chen Guoyou, the neighbor of Qi State, rebelled against Xishan people, and the chaos of Chen Guozuo took seven years to subside completely, which seriously damaged the vitality of Chen State and became the weakest vassal state ever since.Everyone in the world thinks that the reason why the rebel army is invincible is because of the merit of the seventh-grade Taoist talisman. Everyone knows that there is one person who plays the most critical role in this.The leader of the rebel army, Xiang Rendao, dreamed that the God of the Western Mountains gave the heavenly scriptures and other nonsense stories.But among the rebels, he was not well-known, not even ranked in the top [-], because his surname was Xiao, and he always greeted people with a smile, so he was nicknamed Smiling Fox. Xiao Hou on the top of the ink cloud.

To be precise, he planned the rebellion alone, but after the rebellion subsided, he escaped the death penalty because he was not the mastermind, and only ended up being exiled to the frontier and never pardoned.

No one knew that before the rebellion, Xiao Hou was just a teacher in a small town on the border of Qi State. He had ink in his stomach, but he had no ambitions. He never thought of becoming famous and famous.Just because he lost a poem with a son from Chen country, lost face in front of the students and lost his job, he swore revenge in a rage.

Killed that young man?Kill one and there will be another.Killed all the sons?As long as there is an aristocratic family, there will always be those high-ranking young masters.Ruined those families?It's a little troublesome, but if the entire Chen country is destroyed, then it won't be so troublesome.

So, Xiaohou spent ten years planning, and he gradually discovered that his ability is much higher than what he thought before, or maybe it was because of day and night of hard thinking and searching, that he was full of flowers before he was 50 years old. He sent out, forcing out all the schemes and cruel methods hidden in his bones.Then, he achieved it overnight, successfully "revenge", won the indelible medal by the sideburns, and was rescued by Mr. Li, and came to Moyun Tower to become an ordinary housekeeper.

All this took him 25 years.

He can do many things in 25 years, and he can completely change a person. Xiao Hou is no longer the teacher who got angry in a fit of anger. After seven years of ups and downs of rebellion, he is now more forbearing and better at pretending , will also seek to maximize the benefits.

"It seems that Mr. Li really can't come back. After waiting for eight years, this day finally came. Tsk tsk, from today, there will be no Mr. Li in Moyun Tower, only me, Mr. Xiao."

Sipping his tea, Xiao Hou smiled faintly, took out a stack of scrolls from his sleeve, glanced at them and threw them on the table.

At first glance, this stack of scrolls is very similar to what Amber Chen saw in the daytime, because this is the real secret letter.And what is recorded in it is naturally very different from what An Bochen saw. For example, Huo Guogong already knew about the secret adjustment of grain by the left minister, and he had already received the grain adjustment warrant from Young Master Li.

Tapping the table with his fingers, Xiao Hou narrowed his eyes into a line and muttered to himself.

"Huo Guoping hates three things most in his life, betrayal, deceit, and threats. You, An Bochen, committed two things alone. It will be difficult to survive this way."

"Although Huo Guogong and Li Gongzi are in a relationship of interest, how can they have no feelings after they have been together for so long? It is best for you, An Bochen, to vent your anger. Only when the lord of the country is calm after venting his anger, can the old man live with him Let’s talk about it. Although Young Master Li is dead, as long as his foundation remains, Huo Guogong can still get help from the government and the public. Therefore, someone still needs to take charge of the Moyun Tower. Apart from me, Xiaohou, where else can I find a better one? Candidates?"

After drinking the third sip of tea, Xiao Hou felt refreshed, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became stronger. He looked towards the hidden jade hall, his eyes flickering.

"That girl is weird. Judging by the origin of her temperament, it is better not to move for the time being. As long as the general situation is on my side, what kind of storms can she cause when An Bochen dies... In the past I really didn't see that An Bochen was a bit quick-witted. If he hadn't met the old man, he might have achieved something in the future, but it's a pity that his cleverness was misunderstood by his cleverness. The huge Moyun Tower will change hands tomorrow to me, Xiaohou. "

The moonlight fell into the window lattice and landed on the sneering old man, but was hidden under the dark robe, losing its white luster.

.......

After running wildly for two streets, An Bochen finally stopped.

Heaving a sigh of relief, An Bochen looked up at the mansion not far away, with a look of determination in his eyes.

When he first saw Xiao Hou earlier, he said that he was not panicking, which was a lie, but for some reason, when he thought of being in a dangerous situation, and thinking of the secret book that could help Sima Jin go home, the panic in his heart dissipated instantly, and he remained calm. , talked eloquently, and actually analyzed the situation in the court with that Xiao Hou who couldn't see the details clearly.

With a wry smile, An Bochen shook his head.

He knew absolutely nothing about the situation in North Korea and China. The reason why he was able to say those words was all due to his quick wits, and he pieced together his daily knowledge and the secrets in the secret letter. He said it randomly, but it really sounded like that Even he himself began to admire himself.

"It can be regarded as a blind cat who caught a dead mouse and fooled the old man Xiao by mistake. However, the secret letter from Mr. Li is true, and maybe it can really impress Huo Guogong."

The young man said to himself, after running wildly for a while, he left the Moyun Tower and stood in front of Huo Guogong's mansion, his heart was pounding.

Before talking about fashion with Xiao Hou, he didn't think it was a big deal, but now, he was about to step into the important place of the government, but he couldn't help getting nervous.After all, this is the mansion of the veteran of the three dynasties and the current prime minister
