Rebirth of the Taming of the Slaves

Seeing that the day of the release is getting closer and closer, I, the client, don't feel much, but my father and two sisters who have never been at ease with me have never been worried about it.The two brothers-in-law were infected by their nervousness, and they have been running to the Hou's mansion for the past few days when they have nothing to do.Either arrange this, or order that.What's more, my eldest brother-in-law gave me a class, talking about the twists and turns of the officialdom every day.As long as I don't get distracted, the elder brother-in-law will start to rub the bamboo board smoothed by him...

After a few days of intensive training, the eldest brother-in-law finally had a general understanding of the area in Taiping County.The eldest brother-in-law saw that I could say a thing or two about the questions he asked, so he nodded with confidence and put the one-foot-long bamboo board back into the sleeve.I stared at my brother-in-law's sleeve in silence for a long while, and I secretly said to my little nephew in my heart that I wish for good luck in the days to come.

The matter of my release was regarded as a top priority by the mansion, even Cang Zi, who usually did not go out of the courtyard, learned about it from the little maid who had nothing to do and chatted.At first I thought he didn't know, so I told him the day before I left. Unexpectedly, when I went to see him the next day, there was already a packed package on the bed.Seeing me coming in, Cang Zi froze for a moment and smiled at me.

I looked at the package in doubt, and asked curiously: "I need to pack up my things and let the servants come. If you are not well, don't move around."

Cangzi stretched out her hand to signal me to sit down and talk, poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of me and said, "Ah, I heard that you are going to be an official in other places, and I'm fine, and it's time to go back to Miaojiang."

Hearing this, I couldn't help but froze for a moment, looking at the other person's still pale cheeks, I couldn't help frowning.

"Why, will I kick you out as soon as I leave the Hou's mansion? You said that you are almost in good health. Show me your luck."

As soon as I finished speaking, Cang Zi's two hundred and five hands clenched into fists and raised them under his armpits, ready to show me luck. Seeing this, I quickly got up and held him down, "Brother, you are really obedient. It's not easy for you Recover a little bit, and then go somewhere to reason when something goes wrong with your exercise."

Cang Zi also knew that the exercise was barely enough at this time, so she silently lowered her arms and said, "When are you leaving?"

"There are still five days left. After I leave, you can rest in peace and recuperate in the Hou Mansion. At that time, I will tell my father that you don't have to be so polite with me when you consider me a friend." I took a sip of tea and continued: "If you are not safe in the mansion, you can go out with me for a walk. I heard from my brother-in-law that although Taiping County is located in a remote area, it has beautiful scenery and simple folk customs. Although the road may be a little bumpy, you don't have to feel I'm uncomfortable, it's not too late to leave after you recover."

Baozi on the side also said: "Yes, yes, Mr. Cangzi is walking with us, and it happens that there are more people on the road and it will be more lively."

Baozi's words made me sweat a lot, this person treats his appointment as a game.But Baozi is still young. Although he is a servant of the Hou Mansion in name, I have never really seen him as a real person.Moreover, this child is pure in heart and loves to be lively, so he is naturally happy to have one more person to accompany us on the road.

Cangzi was dangling back and forth non-stop by Baozi's sleeves. Cangzi has always liked this little guy. Seeing him acting like a spoiled child for a while, he didn't know how to react, so he could only look at me for help.

I gloated at him and shrugged my shoulders, with an expression of helplessness.

In fact, I also understand that asking Cangzi to go with me is a bit unreliable.Whether his body can withstand the jolt is one thing, but also his identity.If it is based on the rumors from the outside world, even if others don't say anything, even my father will beat me to death.

Baozi entangled Cangzi for a while, and I saw that he was embarrassed, so I helped him persuade Baozi to leave.The three of us chatted for a while, and then we went to the front hall with Cangzi after hearing the report that Huafu Hua Jinxiang had come.

This time Hua Jinxiang came alone, wearing a blue shirt and standing in the living room, he looked extraordinarily elegant.

Seeing me walking with the steamed stuffed bun, Hua Jinxiang stood up from the chair and hugged me. I gave him a blank look and walked to the side and sat down.

"Why are you here now?"

"I heard that you're going to leave Beijing, so I'll come and have a look. There are a lot of things going on in the house these days, so maybe I won't be able to see you off on the day you leave."

Some time ago, I was quite familiar with Hua Jinxiang, and now I don't have the politeness before.

Hearing what he said, I nodded. As we all know, I have always looked down on Washington, so in the eyes of Hua Lingshu and others in Washington, the purpose of my friendship with Hua Jinxiang is probably to tease him, so I didn't take it to heart.If Hua Jinxiang really showed up on the day I left Beijing, people would be suspicious.And I'm not familiar with him to that extent, so I really don't care whether Hua Jinxiang goes to see me off.

I once had a long talk with Hua Jinxiang. Although this person was born in Washington, he hated Washington extremely because of his birth mother, but as a member of Washington, he sometimes had to swallow his anger.

At that time, I tentatively asked him if he had the opportunity to destroy Washington, or let him take charge of Washington, would he agree.Hua Jinxiang didn't hesitate at the time if he could destroy Washington, he was willing to exchange his life.Looking at Hua Jinxiang's expression, I can't imagine what kind of life this person has lived in Washington since he was a child. I'm afraid it's not just as simple as the pain of losing his mother.

In the next few meetings, I intentionally or unintentionally revealed to him some information about Washington that Ba Jun had found during this period. Hua Jinxiang was not a stupid person, and after a few hints, he vaguely understood my intentions.Then he told me happily that as long as I am willing to help him destroy Washington, everything in Washington can be handed over to me after the matter is completed.

All I want is to learn something with the help of Hua Jinxiang, and I have nothing to do with Washington.

In this way, I hooked up with Hua Jinxiang.To be honest, this person is really smart. Although he was able to say a few words in the mansion before, now with the news I gave him and his own brilliant mind, he has gradually gained a firm foothold in the mansion.I believe that in the near future, he will be able to replace several older brothers and younger brothers who were born in the main courtyard.

With Hua Jinxiang in Washington, Daddy in Houfu and Beijing, and Ghost Bajun, I believe everything will go well.

The next day, my eldest brother-in-law asked someone to let me go to Yanlaiju, and I followed the servants from my brother-in-law’s house to Yanlaiju without knowing where. I asked my eldest sister and found out that he was going to entertain several adults from the official department today, so I also Please let me accompany you to pave the way for my future official career.

Although I usually like to make trouble, I can't bear this kind of occasion the most, but when my elder brother-in-law speaks, I can only respond with a smile on my face.

Not long after, several adults came late and greeted us before taking their seats.

The brother-in-law saw that everyone had arrived, so he ordered Xiao Er to serve the food.A group of people, intentionally or unintentionally, brought the topic to me while complimenting each other.

As the son of the Marquis of Anping, it is not in accordance with the rules to be a magistrate of a small county, but I am kissed by the emperor, so they can't say anything.Although my name is not well-known in the capital, and I don't usually have a good reputation, hearing them all praise me for being young and promising, I can't help but feel teeth ache.

After finally finishing the meal, my cheeks were almost unconscious from laughing.Looking at a bunch of half-grown old men who were drunk, I threw them all to my brother-in-law to deal with. I'm so angry.

It was almost Haishi now, and there were only a few pedestrians on the street. Except for a few wine shops and a flower house at the corner, the lights were still on, and the road was almost completely dark.

I was walking on the road with my hands behind my back and was blown by the cool night wind, and the alcohol began to rise.I was used to walking on this street when I was out fooling around, so I didn't worry about it, and I still walked slowly.

However, when standing in front of me were three assassins in night clothes and holding long knives, I stopped and looked at them and blinked, suddenly feeling like I finally met a ghost after walking at night.

I touched the purse hanging from my waist, and asked, "Want money?"

The three of them looked at each other and shook their heads tacitly. Before I could speak again, the man in black standing in the middle waved his hands, said 'kill' and rushed towards me first.

My drunkenness was completely gone by the sound of 'killing', and I hurriedly took a few steps back and took out a dagger from my cuff to meet him.

A short dagger against three long knives, to be honest, I am really not sure.Seeing that the three people on the opposite side are also well-trained masters, I am afraid that if I am not careful, I will have to explain here today.

Depending on the situation, I can't run away, so I can only make as much noise as possible to attract the surrounding households and patrolling soldiers.

In my brainstorming, I didn't neglect my hands in the slightest. I carefully parried the three of them, and I fought and looked for an opportunity to retreat.The person in the lead seemed to have seen my intention, and blocked my retreat with a dodge.

Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but feel a little anxious. I stretched out my hand and overturned the shed built by the small vendors on the side of the road. Taking advantage of the gap between the three of them, I flew onto the roof and ran all the way south.

In a panic, I ran to the posthouse. Seeing the guards guarding the gate of the posthouse, the three of them looked at each other again and backed away step by step with their knives, then turned around and disappeared into the night.

Seeing them leave, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the dagger in my hand fell to the ground with a clang, and I followed suit and sat on the stone beside me.

The sound of the dagger falling to the ground still alarmed the guards of the post, only to hear a man shouting and rushing towards me with a knife in his hand.

Seeing a man with disheveled clothes sitting on a stone in the darkness, he asked loudly, "Who is it?"

After fighting with the three of them and running for so long, I didn't have the energy to chat with them any more. I raised my right hand and pointed to one of them and said, "It's me, Anping Hou Shizi Zhou Pinyan. Go, call your leader here." .”

The man didn't relax his vigilance when he heard that I was Zhou Pinyan, and then stabbed the people around him to call for someone.

After a while, a general in heavy armor came out, and after seeing that I confirmed that I was the Prince of Anping Hou, he hurriedly cupped his hands and saluted me.

I followed him into the posthouse and told what happened just now. As soon as the man heard this, he ordered someone to arrest the three thieves.I stopped him, but told him to send someone to the Anping Marquis Mansion and ask someone to come and pick me up.
