When Su Yu heard Jinxiu's bad news, he was speechless for a while.

If Jinxiu hadn't returned to the General's Mansion to look for him, this bewitching young man would not have died tragically.

The hut where Jinxiu died tragically was also the place where Su Yu lived for several months since he traveled through time. Zhao Jun ordered the doors and windows to be sealed and never opened.However, more than ten steps closer to the hut, the cold wind was blowing in the face, and a faint smell of blood could still be smelled from the cold wind.Many days later, the smell of human blood still cannot disappear in the air.

This Zhao Jun is a bit ruthless in dealing with people.

A cold light flashed in Su Yu's eyes, which was instantly caught by the sharp-eyed Manager Hua.

Manager Hua was straightforward: "Do you want Zhao Jun to die?"

Su Yu glanced at him and remained silent.The human heart is the most elusive thing in the world, and he will not easily reveal his true inner emotions until he has really figured out the details of the other party.

Director Hua: "You don't want to easily believe that people are right. It's just that with your current state, even if one day you have a chance to escape from the general's mansion, even if you escape to the ends of the earth, Zhao Jun will have a way to catch you back. At that time, it will be miserable In other words, it will be worse than the dead Jinxiu."

Su Yu still lowered his head and said nothing.

Director Hua: "Are you willing to be a male favorite here until you die? If you are a male favorite in the general's mansion, if you are not favored, you are as humble as a weed on the roadside; if you are favored, everyone in the mansion will nod and bow to you, but ..."

Manager Hua chuckled: "Can you bear Zhao Jun's body?"

Su Yu finally raised his head: "Since you have been here for many years, you should be considered an old loyal servant. Why would you suddenly want to kill your master? Killing him, what good is it for you?"

Manager Hua: "I'm getting old, and I have everything I need. What advantage can I have to take such a risk? I'm in the mansion, and if I want to kill Zhao Jun, why don't I wander around in front of the Palace of the King of Hell with my head in my hands? .Although you are young, you may not be able to live longer than me in the mansion. Maybe I can live for ten years, but...to serve Mr. Zhao, do you have such a good body to serve for ten years?"

Su Yu was expressionless: "What exactly do you want to say, just say it. There is no need to beat around the bush."

Manager Hua said bitterly: "Two years ago, I wanted to die with him. My son, my own son, was thrown to those dog guards by him, tortured for ten days, and tortured to death alive!"

I was originally a teacher who worked in a small county government office outside the imperial capital.Because of his outstanding ability in handling affairs, Zhao Jun accidentally discovered him, so he asked the county magistrate to come over and arranged to be the general manager in the mansion.

To be honest, at that time, I was still grateful to Zhao Jun.After all, working under the great general who protects the country is quite different from working under a small and muddle-headed magistrate.Lord General has never married a wife or took concubines, and prefers masculinity, especially young and weak young men.Entering the mansion to be a male favorite, those beautiful boys suffered a lot, and those who were disobedient and did something wrong would end badly.Those children are indeed very pitiful, but since I work under them and eat this bowl of rice, I just can't do it.The adults are looking for fun, let the adults go too far, we subordinates can only listen to the adults.Just seeing some children being tortured miserably, I, as the manager, do what I can in private.Order the kitchen to cook some good dishes, or sneak some wound medicine or something.Zhao Jun is a shrewd person, he naturally knows what I do.He didn't say a word.Just let me secretly do a little bit of kindness.

Later, Mr. Zhao met a down-and-out scholar by accident on the street, and ordered the young man to be taken into the mansion.That boy looked like a nerd at first glance, he was full of saintly words, and he said that he was famous, the emperor had the king's law... He repeated the words of some sour literati, and others would only listen to it as a joke.Even I laughed when I heard it... Looking back now, I can't wait to slap myself a few times.

Later, the young man cried bitterly again, saying that his mother was in some temple outside the city, and begged someone from us to send a message to his mother, so that his mother could find his father to save him... Turns pale. It takes a while before continuing.)

At that time, all the people present were from the General's Mansion, so naturally no one brought him this message.The boy struggled in every possible way, but was finally washed and sent to the general's bedroom.

When they were carried out the next day, the boy kept crying, crying like a woman.Her throat was hoarse from crying, and she still cried all night when she was carried back to her room.Later this boy told me that his surname was Xu, and his name was Xu Shi.Xu Shi was pale and thin, and his face was as delicate as a girl's.Curling up on the couch and crying like a girl, people can't help feeling pity when they see it.I skillfully applied the best wound medicine on him, and ordered the kitchen to make a good meat porridge.But he refused to eat it, vomited the porridge all over the floor, saying that a scholar can be killed but not humiliated... just as stubborn as you, but more sour than you.The male favorite who just came to the general's mansion often went on hunger strike.I have seen them a lot, so I treat them equally and forcefully pour half a bowl of ginseng soup.

The invited doctors are used to the injuries of male pets.Xu Shi's injury was healed quickly, and he was sent to bed as usual.When he came back again, he didn't cry or make trouble, but with a pale face, he said over and over again, "I'm going to kill you."

I have stayed in the mansion for a long time, and it is not uncommon for me to see such a situation.He didn't take it seriously, let alone report to Zhao Jun the complaints that many male favorites want to make.Just relying on those male pets who have no power to restrain the chicken, trying to kill Zhao Jun is undoubtedly a fool's dream.

I didn't expect Xu Shi to be real.Although he is a scholar who has tried and failed, he is also an expert in treating poison.He gradually stopped crying, and began to flatter the general in front of him, and gradually got some privileges that other male favorites did not have, and walked around the garden at will.There are many exotic flowers and herbs in the mansion. This Xu Shi has been walking among the flowers and plants for several days, and has secretly collected the needed herbs, and spent more than a month drying and grinding them into powder.When going to bed one day, hide the medicinal powder in the incense cauldron.The servants smoked incense as usual, and Zhao Jun enjoyed himself as usual.Originally, when those poisons reached a certain amount, they could surely kill people, but this Zhao Jun was too shrewd, he smelled a strange smell from the usual dragon birthday incense, and saw the hidden murderous intent in Xu Shi's eyes.He overturned the incense tripod and beat Xu Shi out of bed.Soon people will check the spices and find out the deadly poisonous powder hidden inside.A little medicine powder was found in Xu Shi's bedroom.Zhao Jun, who had inhaled a lot of poisonous gas, had to recuperate for at least a month before recovering. Zhao Jun was furious, and immediately ordered Xu Shi, who had been imprisoned, to be thrown to hundreds of guards in the mansion.He was tortured for nearly ten days before he died.

Speaking of this, Manager Hua didn't cry but laughed, just laughed like crying: "I'm an old fool, I didn't find any resemblance between him and that person from the beginning to the end. The offended general was thrown to the guards in the palace to torture He was not the only one who died. So when Xu Shi, who died tragically, was dragged out and buried hastily, I didn’t even take a second look. After two months, this matter was never mentioned again. It’s as usual as in the general’s mansion. A cat or a dog died.

Just when I was about to forget about it, I accidentally ran into her on the street outside the residence.Xu Shaoyao, the youngest daughter of an old doctor outside the city. Haven't seen it in 18 years, so much older, I didn't recognize it at all.It was she who called my name and stopped me.

She looked poor and ragged.Nearly forty years old, people are much older than their actual age.Her hair is a little gray, but if you look closely, you can still see the beauty of a girl from the past in her facial features.

She was a very pretty girl 18 years ago.Although her father was a well-known doctor in that area, but because of the bad habit of gambling, he lost all his property and owed debts.Her father was really in a daze, he was so red-eyed that he wanted to sell his daughter to the courtyard for money.When the old bustard came to lead her, the girl from Xu's family couldn't live or die.I and their family are still neighbors, so I really can't see it, so I paid for the girl's innocence.

Shaoyao was so grateful that she insisted on coming to my house to be a maid.I am a little teacher, where can I find a maid?What's more, the eldest lady in the family is jealous by nature, how can she allow a young and beautiful woman to enter the house.So naturally there was no answer.

Some people also came to propose marriage to Miss Xu's family, but Shaoyao declined all of them.In fact, her identification of medicinal materials is better than her father's.On weekdays, I gather some herbs by myself, and some patients come here especially, but I also earn a lot of money.It's just that most of the money was used for gambling by her gambling father.Shaoyao's life was miserable.

I thought she was really pitiful, so I secretly gave her some firewood.It was just inevitable that the eldest lady would find out, and there was a real quarrel at home for a few days.Shao Yao returned the chaimi she had sent, and was beaten by the eldest lady at home by pulling her hair.When I finally pulled it away, Shaoyao was already crying into tears.

I wanted to divorce the eldest lady at that time, but there was really no reason.Apart from being jealous, this eldest lady, Mrs. Wang, really can't find any faults.After all, I work in the yamen, and because of these family affairs, I am often pointed out by others.Gradually, the thought of divorcing his wife was suppressed.

Only in this way, Shaoyao's reputation is almost ruined.Later, no one came to the Xu family to propose marriage.And after all, it is impossible for me to divorce my wife and marry her into the door, so I can only gradually distance myself from her.

Later, Shao Yao's father lost a bet and got drunk and accidentally fell into the stinky ditch and drowned.From then on, Shaoyao was alone in the world.

Later, the yard where she lived was taken back by Uncle Xu's family.The young girl was forced out.The only way to live in the distance is to hide in caves.
