Huafanchunzhengming

Chapter 846

The younger generation died in the family, but the elders had to give them birthday presents.

At dawn, a group of people set off from Chenliuhou's Mansion, which had been hung white, and prepared to go to Tongzhou to give gifts to the great-aunt of the Hu family to celebrate her birthday.

The leader was Hu Zhi. It stands to reason that Hu Fang, who just died, was his direct brother, so he should stay at home and help take care of him.

But because he and Hu Fang went out together on the day of the accident, Hu Fang died, and died in a very ugly way, but he was alive, which more or less aroused the hatred and suspicion of his aunt.

In order not to make the family more ugly, but also to reconcile the contradictions, after proving that he was not suspected of murder, the uncle Hu Qian made the decision to arrange for him to go to Tongzhou to give a birthday gift and report a funeral at the same time, which fell into Hu Zhi's hands.

As soon as the convoy turned into the main street, several people sitting at the roadside food stalls got up and rushed over. The leader was a middle-aged woman in sackcloth and mourning, who knelt down in front of Hu Zhi, weeping.

Behind her was a tall and beautiful young girl, a half-old man with a sad expression and stooped back, and a fat peasant.

All of them looked sad, with sad expressions, and they wiped their reddish eye sockets from time to time to wipe away the tears in their eyes.

The steward didn't know what was going on, so he went up to Hu Zhi and asked Hu Zhi in a low voice. Hu Zhi sighed: "These are the family members of the soldiers who followed us to put down the rebellion a few days ago. They died, and the pension is not enough. How much money do you want to go back to your hometown?" .”

This is a serious matter, the manager didn't dare to ask more questions, watching Hu Zhi greet these people to get into his own carriage, saying that he would take them along for a while.

The Hu family was in the limelight, and they were great heroes. When they left the city, the officers and soldiers who searched only checked briefly and then let them go. They passed without hindrance.

Hu Zhi let go of a high-hanging heart, but he didn't know that his every move had already fallen into the eyes of others.When I was ten miles out of the city, I took advantage of the opportunity and ran to the back to find someone: "When are you leaving?"

The middle-aged woman dressed as Concubine Lu raised her brows seductively at him: "What's the hurry? Send the Buddha to the west, and you've just left the door, and you turned your face and didn't recognize anyone."

Hu Zhi glanced at those people behind her: "Who are they?"

The half-old man and the fat farmer slept against the wall of the car and ignored him at all, but the beautiful girl opened her eyes and gave him a cold look with disdain in her eyes.

Hu Zhi felt bad: "Who the hell? I won't leave if I don't say anything."

"I don't know how to live or die." The middle-aged woman raised her hand, and a faint sweet fragrance swept away, Hu Zhi couldn't help staring at her, in a trance.

The woman took him by the hand and pulled him into the car, and lowered the curtain.

The housekeeper of the Hu family waited for a long time without seeing any movement, and felt that something was wrong, so he stepped forward and asked tentatively, "Fourth young master?"

The car curtain was lifted, Hu Zhi came out, and asked impatiently, "What's it called?"

Seeing that he was intact, the steward was relieved, and wanted to see the people in the car, but the curtain of the car hit his face.He had no choice but to say resentfully: "The clouds are very thick, and it looks like it will snow heavily, so we have to hurry up and hurry, otherwise I'm afraid we won't be able to make it to the accommodation."

Hu Zhi said with a sullen face, "Then what are you waiting for?"

The group of people continued to move forward. After walking for half a day, the snow began to fall down like goose feathers.Those who ride in the car are fine, but those who walk outside complain endlessly.

The steward came to look for Hu Zhi: "The wind and snow are too heavy, and there is a Zhuangzi ahead, why don't you borrow a night there?"

Hu Zhi was distraught, hating God for not helping, but picking on some heavy snow at this time, so that he could not get rid of the hot potato in the car earlier, and said: "Go on!"

The steward dared not speak out, gritted his teeth and agreed, but the few old family members who came with him belonged to Hu Shi's first wife, and they didn't intend to give this concubine young master any face at all.

Immediately shook his face, one sat on the ground and refused to leave, saying that his feet were hurting; .

Hu Zhi thought to himself that Hu Fang was dead, and the remaining younger brothers were still young. As long as he made more contributions, no one could compete with him. The young master lost his temper and had to force these people to leave.

Those people were determined to fight against him to the end, and they spoke in a very ugly way. How could Hu Zhi accept this kind of wrongedness, and beat down an old family member with a whip. They wanted to make an example to others, so that others would be honest. little bit.

The old family members were crying and howling, rolling on the ground, while the others grabbed Hu Zhi's thigh, asking him to give an explanation.

The steward watched coldly, only sighed, and waited until Hu Zhi was in a mess before going out to persuade him. The group dragged their feet and went to the village ahead to avoid the wind and snow.

After Hu Zhi ran, he said that he could not treat the survivors of the fallen soldiers badly, and put Concubine Lv Taigui and others in a good house before running to resettle them himself.

Concubine Lu Taigui watched him go away, lowered her head and whispered to Huang Zi who was dressed as a girl: "Do you think there is fraud? Do you need to leave first?"

"No serious problem, everything is expected." Huang Zi was full of confidence, "It's freezing cold at this time, if we leave, it will definitely arouse suspicion. The servants of the Hu family are all people who are familiar with bows and horses. It's Zhuangzi of the Great Princess Protector, so it's not good to make a fuss. Let's rest first, and leave after everyone gathers at night."

Huai En listens to her in everything, but He Yiyi stands by the window and looks out.

Huang Zi's thoughts moved slightly: "I heard that Brother He once lived in Princess Dachang's Zhuangzi for a while, so he must be familiar with this area."

He Maoyi nodded lightly: "Indeed."

Huang Zi walked over and stood side by side with him: "Whether you can travel smoothly tonight depends on Brother He at the helm."

The snow outside the window kept falling, and there was silence in Zhuangzi. He Yuyi recalled the scene of fleeing the capital with Zhong Weiwei, and felt a sense of déjà vu.

The ominous premonition is getting stronger, he said: "My suggestion is, why not leave now."

Huang Zi frowned: "Why? The others haven't arrived yet, it's too risky for us to leave alone, there must be a reason."

He Weiyi said: "Although King Wu's rebellion has attracted Emperor Yanxi's attention and he has no time to pay attention to him, but I always feel that it has been too quiet recently, and it is abnormally quiet."

Concubine Lu Taigui sneered: "From the beginning to the end, this plan is flawless, unless someone leaked the news."

She looked down on He Suoyi, the lord of the hall, not to mention the lone family and widows, and his skills were exhausted, he was simply a waste, what face did he have to be the lord of the hall, it was better to die early, so that the Kunlun Hall could be handed over to her.

He Suoyi seemed to have never heard of it: "I will find out the way for you first." Without asking Huang Zi's meaning, he walked out first.
