Chongzhen Chat Group

To be honest, Hou Ke felt very familiar at first glance. Immediately afterwards, there was a question in his mind, why does this person look so much like the emperor?

But in the flash of lightning, he immediately remembered it again. The current emperor likes to pay private visits incognito. Not only is it often seen in the streets and alleys of the capital, but it even went to Jiangnan incognito at the beginning of last year, and many officials were sacked because of it!

With this idea in mind, when he went to look again, he saw the demeanor of this young man, the demeanor of the two women beside him, and the tall men around him who were obviously from the north. He immediately woke up. Come here, the person in front of you does not look like the emperor, but he is simply the emperor who went south incognito again!

With this idea in mind, when he looked at the people in front of him, he immediately guessed the two women around the emperor. The young and beautiful one should be Tian Guifei, who was born in Yangzhou. It is said that she is the emperor's favorite concubine, and he took her south last time. The other one is obviously a little older, but she looks a bit dashing and heroic. She looks like a hero among women. She must be the grassland princess Hailan Zhuhai who has made great achievements!

In addition, Hou Ke also noticed that Fang Zhenghua was different. Needless to say, he must be a eunuch. I heard that the emperor paid a private visit incognito, and he was accompanied by one of the most skilled eunuchs in the palace as his personal bodyguard. It was said that the emperor jokingly called him the "Invincible of the East". It seemed like this was him, right?

There is also the middle-aged northern man at the table next to him. Judging from his iron-blooded temperament, he must be the famous Jin Yiwei commander Master Liu!

When he figured out who these people were in front of him, he was suddenly frightened and shouted loudly: "Stop!"

This voice was very sudden and loud. It didn't sound like it was coming from Hou Ke, who had retired due to illness and returned to his hometown. It shocked everyone in the lobby and almost immediately looked at him.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it. When you look at it, you are immediately shocked. I saw dense beads of sweat on Hou Ke's forehead, his hands were shaking slightly, and his face was a little pale.

When Emperor Chongzhen saw him like this, he knew that he had been recognized by him. Seeing that he wanted to pay homage to him, he frowned slightly and shook his head slightly. He had just arrived at Yingtian Mansion incognito and hadn't done anything yet. He didn't want his identity to be exposed immediately.

When Hou Ke saw him, he had been in officialdom for many years. He immediately understood the meaning conveyed by Emperor Chongzhen and did not dare to pay homage to him again.

At this moment, I suddenly heard Hou Fangyu say with some dissatisfaction: "Uncle, what's going on? Why do you have to stop? You still have to go back by boat and catch these unruly people quickly, so as not to delay your trip!"

After finishing speaking, seeing Hou Ke turning to look at him, Hou Fangyu asked kindly: "Uncle, what's wrong with you? You are sweating all over. Is it because you are sick again?"

Panda Qiu was also a little confused as to why Hou Ke suddenly shouted to stop. He looked at Hou Ke and saw his look, and he was also a little worried. But before he could speak, Hou Ke had already started speaking first.

He glanced at the people in the lobby and saw that the emperor and others, including the imperial guards, were staring at him. He knew that his next performance would determine the fate of his family. When he was thinking like this, he saw him saying sternly to Hou Fangyu: "Are you taking advantage of your family to do mischief again?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone except Emperor Chongzhen and his party were stunned. No matter how much they thought about it, they never thought about how they, who had clearly protected their nephew just now, were scolding his nephew in the blink of an eye.

What's happening here? A string of question marks flies over almost everyone's head? I feel like the plot changes too quickly, which is a bit hard to accept.

Hou Fangyu was also stunned by the training, but he quickly came to his senses and asked worriedly: 'Uncle, are you a little dizzy? "

If not for this, he couldn't think of any other possibility that would make his uncle suddenly say such dizzy words.

"Shut up!" Hou Ke almost got angry to death and shouted immediately. Then what happened just now flashed through his mind, and he had an idea in his mind. He turned to look at Fang Yizhi, who had just been shouted back by him, and said with a kind face: "Nephew Fang Xian, what happened just now? You Are you telling your uncle? You are a good boy and you will not deceive your uncle. You must tell your uncle the truth. There must be rules for deciding right and wrong!"

Fang Yizhi was also confused. Just now he wanted to say something impartially, but he was reprimanded. How come that in the blink of an eye, the person who is so kind to me wants to make myself tell the truth again and make a final judgment about right and wrong?

Seeing this situation, to be honest, Panda Qiu was a little unhappy. I have already made my decision at the expense of offending the Fang family and giving face to the Hou family. Why are you doing something so stupid that you want to know what happened again? Is this necessary?

"Brother Hou, I think let's forget it and take them all to the Yamen. What happened will naturally come to light..."

Hearing Panda Qiu say such words, Hou Ke was very anxious, but he couldn't say it clearly, so he had to interrupt Panda Qiu and said: "Brother Pan, don't interfere with this matter that doesn't concern the Imperial College!"

After he finished speaking, he ignored Panda Qiu's shocked look, turned to the other party and said kindly and wisely: "Nephew Fang Xian, tell your uncle the truth!"

The maid next to him saw how sweaty he was and wanted to wipe it for him, but he pushed her away.

Hou Fangyu looked at this scene with his mouth wide open. He was completely confused and didn't know what kind of play his uncle was acting!

But when Fang Yizhi saw Hou Ke's repeated requests, he didn't think about this strange change, and just told what happened in detail.

Hou Ke listened carefully. When he heard that the dispute between the two sides originated from scientific and technological knowledge and the teachings of Confucius and Mencius, he was even more sure that he was absolutely right. The young man was Emperor Chongzhen. You must know that this scientific and technical knowledge was actually compiled by the emperor himself and vigorously promoted it. When I hear that some people are discriminating against this scientific and technical knowledge, of course there will be arguments.

When Hou Ke heard Fang Yizhi say that after the conflict between the two sides, Hou Fangyu asked Emperor Chongzhen to slap him in the face himself, and to beat him in the same way as the student, his face turned pale and he almost stopped standing. He held on so he didn't fall. The forehead that had just gotten better began to sweat again. This rebellious son of the Hou family, where did you get the courage to ask the emperor to slap you in the face?

However, when he was secretly hating Hou Fangyu, he heard Fang Yizhi continue to say. Hou Fangyu said that the two women around the young man came from a brothel and wanted to win someone's love and wanted them to accompany him. She was responsible for sending him back, which made the older girl furious. When he was about to smash his mouth, Hou Ke could no longer stand. Thanks to the help of the maid with quick eyes and hands, he did not fall.

At this moment, he looked as if he was much older.

"...That's what happened." Fang Yizhi said seriously after Panda Qiu appeared, "Everything my nephew said is true, and there is absolutely no lie. If uncle doesn't believe it, you can ask everyone present!"

After saying that, he took a step back. He wanted to see if Uncle Hou, whose attitude had changed drastically, would change his original intention and make a fair judgment.

The lobby was also very quiet. Everyone looked at Hou Ke and wanted to know what he wanted to do next.

Panda Qiu listened to the whole process, but didn't think anything happened. He was also a little confused and couldn't understand why Hou Ke suddenly became like this. What happened to the rich craftsmen? If it was done, it would be done. Who could say anything?

When he was about to step forward to persuade him again, he saw that Hou Ke had raised his finger and pointed at Hou Fangyu. It was obvious that his finger was trembling slightly. Probably because he was angry! He heard him sternly asking: "Tell me, is this... is it true?"

Hou Fangyu did not answer immediately. He stared at his uncle carefully, up and down, left and right, but did not see any trace of counterfeiting. Then he said with confusion and a little carelessness: "So what if it is true?" In this way, these unruly people..."

Before he could finish his words, Hou Ke shouted, "Shut up!" This voice was nothing like the voice of someone retiring from old age and returning home, or a man who was studying.

The sound was so loud that Hou Fangyu was startled. At the same time, several other people listening in the lobby were also frightened.

"You evil beast, you don't study at home behind closed doors and cultivate your mind and character, but you go out and rely on your family background to do evil and do whatever you want. You... you are ruining the tradition of our Hou family!" Hou Ke lectured loudly, his voice was stern. Extremely, "At a young age, you are competitive and strive for fame and wealth. With a little talent, your tail will be raised to the sky. You..."

Hou Fangyu was stunned again. Uncle, didn't you suggest that my nephew already has his talent and then go out more to make a name for himself?

Panda Qiu next to him was a little angry after being told by Hou Ke and didn't want to care about it. But when he heard Hou Ke scolding him fiercely, he began to wonder again. Could it be that he was speaking to himself and wanted to explain how the Hou family's family style was? But this is wrong! There is no need to do this!

He couldn't stand listening anymore. When he saw Hou Fangyu's face turning green and white after being scolded, he remembered that his father was the minister of the Ministry of War, so he said again: "Brother Hou, forget it, it's not a big deal. I look……"

After hearing this, Hou Ke secretly complained, thinking, I have already told you not to interfere, why are you still interfering? Do you know that not only does this make it difficult for me, but it will also cause trouble for you!

Just when he thought this, something suddenly moved in his mind. At this time, it was time to try his best to save the impression of the Hou family in the minds of the emperor, the noble concubine, and the commander of the imperial guards. It was hard to say, but it could only be that the dead Taoist friend was not dead!

So, Hou Ke immediately turned to look at Panda Qiu and said righteously: "Brother Pan, if you continue to persuade us, our friendship will be gone. Do you know that this kid's behavior is against our Hou Ke's behavior?" The family tradition is contrary to what our Hou family teaches him. If he doesn't learn well at a young age, what will he do when he grows up? He..."

Panda Qiu's face suddenly turned the color of pig liver. I tried to persuade you with good intentions, but you took the opportunity to preach to me. It seems like I don’t know that the reason why Hou Fangyu is like this is not what people of your generation are used to? Otherwise, how could he do whatever he wanted outside? If nothing else, the guy next to me, Fang Yizhi, looks much more cultivated!

In anger, he couldn't listen to Hou Ke's preaching. He cupped his hands and said with a cold face: "Since Brother Hou wants to teach your nephew a lesson, it's because Pan is troublesome. If Pan still has something to do, I won't send him away. That's it." Farewell!"

After saying that, he handed over his hand and turned around to leave. He came to see him off with good intentions. He originally wanted to vent his anger on his nephew, but he ended up feeling quite angry. Enough was enough!

Except for some people who knew very well, almost everyone in the lobby couldn't help but be stunned when they saw this scene. They all thought, had they heard wrong before and misunderstood the Hou family? It turned out that they really knew how to deal with it impartially?

After Hou Ke finished speaking, he took a sneak peek at Emperor Chongzhen's face. He couldn't feel anything, and he still looked so indifferent. On the contrary, Concubine Hai beside the emperor looked annoyed. He knew in his heart that teaching him a lesson in public was not serious enough. Recalling what Fang Yizhi said just now, it was Concubine Hai who asked their men to smash Hou Fangyu's mouth, and the young man nodded.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth secretly, made up his mind, and immediately shouted to Hou Fangyu in a loud voice: "The benefits are only modest, and tolerance is great. This sentence is a wise saying, and I must make sure you remember this sentence today. You yourself Slap, don’t stop until you satisfy me!”

As soon as these words were spoken, even Panda Qiu, who turned around and was about to leave, was stunned. He turned around in surprise, thinking he had heard wrongly. Hou Ke is asking his nephew to slap him in the mouth, and he is not allowed to stop? Is this too harsh?

The people in the lobby were all stunned and a little numb with shock. Accidents come one after another, and dramas follow one another. The eldest son of the Hou family is so awesome!

However, when they heard that Hou Fangyu, a chicken-hearted and vengeful person, who just wanted others to slap him in the mouth, was now ordered to be slapped in the mouth by his family elders, they couldn't help but feel happy. Came on time, happy!

Hou Fangyu's mouth opened wide when he heard this, and he couldn't help but argue: "Uncle, nephew..."

Before he finished speaking, Hou Ke was afraid that he would say something he shouldn't have said again, so he immediately interrupted sternly: "Slap your mouth!"

Hou Fangyu was still unwilling to give in. He opened his mouth and wanted to argue again. But before he could say anything, Hou Ke shouted again: "Slap!"

Seeing that Hou Ke's expression was particularly firm, and the way he looked at me, he seemed to want to eat someone. He was a little afraid of himself, so he gently patted his mouth. People who didn't know looked at it and thought he was touching him. Just the mouth.

Hou Ke knew that the emperor's decree was not to be so gentle. This kind of play might anger Concubine Hai again, and she felt that it was just perfunctory.

So, he immediately yelled: "Didn't you eat? Beat me hard so that you will always remember the lesson!"

To express my apologies, I will add an update tonight, thank you all!
