Gao Zhongxiong didn't dare to ask any more questions, and sat on the edge in a disciplined manner. He froze quite a bit on the road, and now he is getting better, and his numb ears have regained some consciousness.
Zhou Gui saw that Gao Zhongxiong's robe was still old, so he said, "It's very cold in Cizhou, and your clothes are too thin."
Gao Zhongxiong showed some embarrassment on his face, clutching the corner of his clothes, and his voice was like a mosquito: "Yes... yes."
On the other hand, Kong Ling saw some clues and said: "You stay in Qingshui Yamen, you are no worse than others, and all you have in your hands are broken silver. You have just arrived in Cizhou, and it is not easy to settle down. If you are short of anything, Even if you mention it to the government."
Gao Zhongxiong was cared for, his heart was at ease, his eyes were full of water, he quickly stood up, and said, "Gentlemen treat me with great care, and the lord of the government treats me like a mountain..."
Zhou Gui immediately waved his hand and said, "Sit down, there is no one else tonight, so you don't need to be so restrained."
Gao Zhongxiong has neither a wife nor children in Cizhou, and no one dares to let him be the host of the yamen. The monthly salary is reasonable enough, but he did not dare to mention it to anyone. All his money was used to help Han Jin. .
Shen Zechuan released Han Jin last autumn and kept him in a side courtyard. Han Jin lived a hard life in prison. Someone in the hospital took good care of him, and when he recovered, there was a servant who came to play with him. The little servant led him to shake the dice and fight crickets, which made him reluctant to think about Shu, and in less than two months, he completely forgot about returning to Qidu. He later became addicted to gambling and couldn't stay in the yard, so he started to run out with the servant, drinking and playing more casually.
But the monthly money that Shen Zechuan allocated to Han Jin was so much that he couldn't control it, so he had to find a way by himself, so he set his sights on Gao Zhongxiong again, ran to Gao Zhongxiong's house every three days, and shouted loudly for the slaves of the three surnames. Blocking Gao Zhongxiong for money.
Gao Zhongxiong was helpless, he was too shy, and he had no money to buy winter clothes.
Shen Zechuan in the middle was numb from Xiao Chiye's grip, and listening to their conversation, his heart was like a mirror.
The wind picked up again at night, blowing cotton-like snow all over the sky. The iron horse under the eaves was clattering endlessly. Gujin, who came back from the Beiyuan school grounds, was afraid of arguing in the house, so he called someone to remove it. He swept the snow from his hair and saw Fei Sheng walking this way from the porch.
"Looking for the second master?" Fei Sheng held the medicine and gestured to the house with his chin, "The second master is resting, the master may be shouting, you are working hard on the road."
"It's snowing so hard, just riding the horse will kill you," Gu Jin said to Fei Sheng because his ears were numb from the howling wind, and he didn't feel conscious, "Second Master hasn't slept well for half a month in a row. awake."
Fei Sheng sighed.
Gujin stepped aside and said, "Then come in, don't delay the Fujun's medication."
Fei Shenglin said in a low voice before entering the door: "I see that there is no time for a while, and there is no need to be guarded here. After a while, Chenyang and Qiao Tianya will come over. You all go to the duty room to sit, and I will let people serve snacks and hot tea. Let’s make do with a pad for the first time.”
Xiao Chiye can't tell when he will wake up, and he will definitely have a discussion at that time. They had been running for a few days, and the pestle was blowing under the eaves and the wind could not hold back, but Fei Sheng was thoughtful.
Gu Jin accepted this feeling, clasped his fists to thank Fei Sheng, and picked the curtain for him.
Shen Zechuan didn't let the lights on, so Fei Sheng naturally didn't mention it. He went in with a tray and put the medicine in a porcelain bowl. The outside was still talking softly, maintaining a volume that Shen Zechuan could hear. Shen Zechuan took the spoon with his active hand and drank slowly.
Fei Sheng had tried his best not to make a sound, but Xiao Chiye was still awake.
Xiao Chiye frowned for a while and then sat up straight. The black shadow suddenly enveloped Shen Zechuan, which startled Fei Sheng. Xiao Chiye slept with his head dizzy, was silent for a while, looked at Shen Zechuan, and asked hoarsely, "What time is it?"
Shen Zechuan put the spoon down and looked at Fei Sheng.
Fei Sheng said, "Second Master, it's time for Hai."
Xiao Chiye actually slept for nearly three hours, he still squeezed Shen Zechuan's hand, rubbed the back of his neck with the other hand while bowing his head, and said, "Gujin is back?"
Fei Sheng took Shen Zechuan's medicine bowl and replied, "I just came back. I'm in the duty room right now. If the second master wants to call me, I will find someone to call."
"Call," Xiao Chiye said immediately, "let them go to the side hall, I'll be there in a while."
The outside listened to the voices inside and stopped. Fei Sheng came out with an empty bowl, gave the gentlemen a look, and went out through the curtains, asking people to call Chen Yang and the others.
Shen Zechuan moved his numb fingers, and Xiao Chiye pinched them red. Xiao Chiye asked while wearing his robe, "Sitting all the time?"
Shen Zechuan's mouth was full of bitterness, and he was still thinking about Fanzhou's affairs.
Xiao Chiye poured a cup of herbal tea into his mouth and quickly dressed. Seeing that Shen Zechuan stood up, he blocked him from leaving. Taking advantage of the gap between his raised eyebrows and questioning, he squeezed his chin and crossed him in, taking away the bitter taste.
Shen Zechuan was already out of reach, and Xiao Chiye didn't bow his head when pinching his chin, so he could only involuntarily stand on tiptoe. Xiao Chiye led him to his arms, Shen Zechuan grabbed Xiao Chiye's sleeve, his teeth were softly stirred by Xiao Chiye, he couldn't hold the tea, he felt like it was about to flow out, so he had to swallow hastily, the result was Choking, coughing loudly.
The tea outside was full, and Zhou Gui listened to the coughing sound, worried that Shen Zechuan had caught the cold again. After a while, just as he was about to ask aloud, Kong Ling interrupted him.
Kong Ling said, "The dragon in this house is burning too vigorously, so I pushed Yuan Zhuo to the door to get some air."
Yao Wenyu wrapped his cloak and said, "Then there is Mr. Lao Chengfeng."
They drove Zhou Gui out and stood under the eaves for less than a stick of incense when they saw Xiao Chiye pick up the curtain and come out. Everyone saluted and shouted "Second Master".
Xiao Chiye's chin was bumped red. Seeing that Chen Yang and the others had arrived, he bowed slightly to the gentlemen, and said, "I have been running hard on the road these few days, and I have not been paying attention to delaying everyone's discussions. I am really sorry."
Kong Ling said: "Second Master has worked hard day and night in the battlefield, so it's time to rest."
They saluted Xiao Chiye again, Xiao Chiye stopped talking nonsense, and took people to the side hall.
Zhou Gui felt cold as he stood there, scanned a circle of people, and asked, "Go in?"
Yao Wenyu sighed at Zhou Gui and couldn't help laughing again. She raised her hand and said, "Come in, sir, please."
* * *
The Izzhou side was discussing all night, and the Fanzhou side had already received an order.
It wasn't the first time that King Yi returned to Izuku, but last year it was thunder and rain a few times, and Shen Zechuan didn't intend to use troops against him, so this time he also regarded it as a threat and didn't take it to heart.
The Yamen in Fanzhou was expanded and renovated. King Yi placed all the gold and silver treasures plundered from the two prefectures here, claiming to be the treasury. Yes, to support the expenses of his wine pond and meat forest.
It snowed so heavily this year that countless people in the two states starved to death and froze to death. A few days ago, houses collapsed in various places, crushing many people to death. The people below reported to King Yi, but King Yi turned a deaf ear, still immersed in his gentle village.
The people who initially followed the King of Wings uprising were killed because they competed for land, and most of the people who are still left are bandits from the two states. When King Yi had established his title, he had promised to be a scholar in the two states, to change the status quo of the two states and restore people's livelihood. As a result, he sat in the yamen and fell with his sword, killing the sarcastic scholars.
The people of the two prefectures were all in danger. Many people wanted to flee the country in the snow, but they were all beheaded by the soldiers of King Yi. Li was the "livestock" hunted by the King of Wings in winter.
After the third watch of the night, King Yi was lying on the satin cushion with a big belly. He was very drunk to the sound of the sheng music. He raised the golden cup and said loudly, "Full of wine!"
The women with disheveled clothes on both sides poured wine for King Yi, who held his arms and said, "Pour, pour, then pour!"
The red pomegranate-like wine dripped out from the mouth of the cup, and the woman turned around to cover her face in the wild laughter of King Wing, as if she was shy. The King of Wings has long lost his sense of proportion, and he has shown his inferiority in public. He had difficulty moving because of his fatness, and had to try his best to open his arms when hugging from side to side.
On the lower left of King Yi sat Cuiqing, she asked a handsome new face to hold a bong for her, and when she was breathing smoke, she glanced straight at the waist, and said, "I escaped from Dunzhou with nine deaths, what will your Highness take? Reward me? I'll just watch this, give me some training, but it's amazing."
This man was born handsome, with no powder on his face, broad shoulders and narrow waist, kneeling in front of Cuiqing, and after hearing this, he raised his head and glanced at Cuiqing. Those eyes were hot and direct, and Cui Qing's whole body was numb when she scratched, and her heart was itching.
King Wing is too fat, and the woman who serves him needs to turn his head for him. He glanced at the man and said with a smile: "Mom, you have a good eye, do you know who this is?"
Cuiqing lifted her foot and stepped on the man's chest, feeling the hardness under her feet, and said, "Mom, I've never seen such a person before... So darling, let's go with mom?"
King Yi laughed loudly, and suddenly said viciously: "His surname is Huo, his name is Huo Lingyun, and he is the eldest son of Huo Qing, the commander of the garrison in Dengzhou who was killed by a dog. At that time, I was going to enter Dengzhou, and Huo Qingning died. No, I killed my second brother during the battle, and after being caught by me, I tortured for seven days and seven nights, and finally threw it in the hunting grounds and let the dogs tear it to shreds!"
Cuiqing said, "Ouch," and leaned in to look at Huo Lingyun, giggling, "His Royal Highness has such a big mind, and he took him by his side to raise him so strong."
"I originally wanted to kill him," Wang Yi said contemptuously, "but he was born like a dog, but his courage was as small as a needle. Seeing his father being eaten by a dog, he immediately knelt down and hugged my leg, begging. I will give him a way to live, and I am willing to be a cow or a horse for this, and I will keep him by my side as a dog."
Cuiqing touched Huo Lingyun, and Huo Lingyun showed a pleasing smile. Cuiqing gave him a sympathetic push and said, "Good dog, tell mom to see how good you are."
King Yi threw the golden cup and said, "He doesn't avoid meat and vegetables, and he is playful. Last time he gave it to Fang Da's family to play for seven or eight days, and he was still alive when he came back."
Cuiqing's face was cold, and she said, "Fang Laojiu is so old, but still so cheap! I can't hold shit and pee anymore, and I even robbed my mother for a man! Look at me, my mother is much prettier than Fang Laojiu. Now, it's too hard for you to serve him as an old macaque."
Huo Lingyun's chest rose and fell, half of his body was open, his clothes were tied around his waist, and he was obedient when Cui Qing came over. This hall was already full of obscenity, and Cui Qing was pinched by Huo Lingyun with a squeak and fell on the soft cushion, signaling him to come next.
King Wing is overindulgent, and now he is just drinking. He was addicted to alcohol, and he drank to a round belly amid the chaos, while the woman who served him kneaded his shoulders and pinched his legs, and snored like thunder on his pillow.
The snow outside the hall fell for half the night, and when it was almost dawn, the people inside fell asleep.
The wing king opened his arms, spraying the turbid wine smell. Huo Lingyun wiped his body and wiped away the sweat. In the endless snoring, he looked at King Wing, who was not far away, and then silently passed over the others and squatted beside King Wing's pillow.
King Wing did not like to bring guards when he was looking for fun. He was afraid of death, so guards with swords had to stand outside the door. Huo Lingyun had been a male pet for half a year under the account of King Yi, and he had been humiliated to get such an opportunity.
He looked at King Wing as if he were looking at the dogs that killed his father.
There were three soft knocks on the door.
Huo Lingyun knew it was over. He didn't stand up, but patted King Wing on the cheek while picking up the cushion.
King Wing snored and swallowed back. He reached out and pushed the empty gold cup away, and opened his eyes to the sound of the "ding dang" collision. When he saw Huo Lingyun, he suddenly broke out in cold sweat and scolded: "Go—"
Huo Lingyun had already moved, and he suffocated King Yi's head with a soft cushion. King Wing struggled violently, and his stout limbs swayed, awakening the others in the hall. Huo Lingyun pressed the white fleshy waves, and King Wing was still breathing under the soft cushion.
Cuiqing woke up, but she didn't realize what was happening around her at all.
Wang Yi breathed heavily, and shouted in a terrified muffled voice, "Someone, come and help me!"
Huo Lingyun laughed as King Yi struggled, he suddenly let go of his hand and gave up the suffocation killing. King Wing got up from his men in a panic, but King Wing was too fat, stuck in the soft cushion, and shouted hoarsely: "Quick, come quickly!"
Huo Lingyun felt something from the clothes piled up around his waist, and he followed King Wing.
The Wing King crawled around naked, like maggots, and gradually realized something in the shouting. The guards outside the door seemed to be dead-they were indeed dead.
King Wing started to cry, he moved his fat body, folded the fleshy waves, prostrate at Huo Lingyun's feet, and said, "Ling, Lingyun!" I'll give you Fanzhou, mine, mine! I'll give you King Yi too!"
Huo Lingyun's chest rose and fell, bowed his head and grabbed King Yi's hair, dragging King Yi towards him. King Yi didn't understand how the situation had changed suddenly. Before he fell asleep, Fanzhou all listened to his orders. He kicked his legs and yelled like a pig.
Cuiqing finally reacted. She groped for her clothes in a panic. Seeing that King Yi was dragged to her by Huo Lingyun, she hurriedly shook her head and said, "I have nothing to do with my mother! It doesn't matter—"
The sound of the explosion sounded at this moment, and the explosion sound of "bang" seemed to hit Cuiqing's ear, causing her ears to buzz. With her eyes open, she froze here in silence, her face full of red and white filth.
Huo Lingyun was struck by the copper fire gun, and the tiger's mouth was in severe pain. The burning sensation made him extremely happy, and King Wing's head was like a watermelon that was trampled.
There was dead silence in the hall, and Cui Qing suddenly screamed. She crawled like crazy, clutching her clothes, running barefoot in the hall, and pounced on the door. The door opened, but Cuiqing retreated again. She fell to the ground and looked at the fire guns everywhere at the door.
"You snatch the woman for him," Huo Lingyun stood in the darkness, and put into his mouth what King Wing had thrown into his hand, and then spat it out immediately, he stared at Cuiqing, and said in a cold voice, "You still Breed a mastiff for him."
Cui Qing shook her head, covered her body, and moved on the floor. She heard the barking and saw the mastiffs come out of the legs.
Huo Lingyun stepped on King Yi's corpse, as if looking at the meat on the chopping board, he said, "You should all taste this."
Cuiqing's eyes widened and she wanted to run, but her legs were weak, so she could only watch the mastiff escape from the chains and pounce on the uncontrollable scream.
Huo Lingyun put on a robe amid the sound of mastiffs tearing and swallowing. He picked up the letter that was thrown away by King Wing, and immediately rubbed it away.
