Marry the Regent [Time Travel]
Chapter 15
It didn't take long before the birthday banquet of Zhongyi Hou Xue Chong came. Although he always wanted to put He Yuan to death, he had been using secret tricks all the time, and he hadn't taken his face seriously so far. What's more, he was still He Yuan's father-in-law in name, so this Tian Heyuan and Xue Yunzhou rode in the same carriage, and passed with congratulations in a very dignified manner. When they arrived at the Hou's Mansion, they exchanged pleasantries with each other, and their faces were peaceful.
Xue Chong is now a hundred dissatisfied with Xue Yunzhou, the eldest son of the first son who only talks empty words but does not do anything. However, due to He Yuan's identity, he has no choice but to continue to put on a loving father's face, and after welcoming them in, he graciously orders people Serving tea, he said with a smile: "The dog only knows how to read since he was a child. The prince does not dislike him for being boring, and loves him very much. The subordinate is very comforted."
He Yuan nodded slightly: "Don't worry, Lord Hou, I will take good care of Yunzhou."
Xue Yunzhou gave two thumbs up in his heart: Two film kings!
This side is doing Tai Chi as you come and go, and the officials who came earlier over there also rushed over to greet those in power. He Yuan looked over the crowd and looked at General Ji who had just walked in the door, the corners of his eyes tightened imperceptibly Tight, he waved his hand when he came to the front and was about to salute, and said: "General Ji is the father-in-law of the Marquis of Zhongyi, we are also a family, I heard that you are in ailment, so there is no need for these false salutes."
Seeing that General Ji looks very ordinary, Xue Yunzhou only has a gray beard that is more characteristic, and secretly said that his daughter looks like his father. No wonder Ji has a passerby face, and he still can't remember it clearly after seeing it many times.He was really curious as to what kind of impetus came for cheap father to divorce the beautiful and beautiful Kang family and marry the mediocre Ji family.
General Ji's beard trembled, and he smiled at He Yuan: "Thanks to the lord's concern, I'm much better now."
He Yuan nodded: "General Ji is old, you should take good care of your body, the court is still waiting for you to serve, if it's cold today, don't bathe in cold water."
General Ji's face froze slightly, and he said with a dry smile: "What the lord said is true, the lower officials must pay attention."
Xue Yunzhou laughed secretly: It turned out that it was a cold bath, and General Ji worked really hard to pretend to be sick this time.
He Yuan and Xue Yunzhou were distinguished and were the last to come, so they only sat for a while, exchanged greetings with everyone, and then the banquet began.
Xue Yunzhou and He Yuan had a table of wine and food alone, and the two of them were sitting next to each other. Xue Yunzhou leaned his head towards He Yuan, and lowered his voice, telling him, "Don't eat anything indiscriminately!"
He Yuan tilted his head to look at his two dark and smart eyes, and wanted to warn him not to be cunning, he didn't look like a scholar at all, but after thinking about it, he will always be with him in the future, anyway, he will be watching, so don't be afraid If you reveal your secrets, you don't intend to remind him.
And based on my own understanding of him, although he is not very reliable most of the time, he is not an idiot, and he can handle the seriousness at critical moments. He is cautious in his words and deeds, and now he is in the palace, after being with him, he really relaxes.
As He Yuan thought about it, his heart moved, and he glanced at Xue Yunzhou again.
He suddenly remembered that when he was assassinated last time, Xue Yunzhou grabbed his arm without hesitation and was about to suck out the poison. Although he explained afterwards that it was because he saved his life, what about the dog crawling words and the account book?
He had just woken up not long ago, and his reaction was a little slower than usual. Because he already knew his identity, he took it for granted when he saw his double-entry bookkeeping method and even Arabic numerals, and it was logical that there were not many Think about it, but now when I think about it again, I realize what I have overlooked.
If he was the real He Yuan, how could he write such ugly words and show it?What's more, when he first got married, he clearly wrote a good hand.As for the ledger, it’s not such a coincidence, it’s probably taken out on purpose... In addition, his attitude towards Marquis Zhongyi, after all, is father and son, even if it’s fake, no matter how bad the relationship is, it’s impossible to reveal it in front of the real Prince Regent too obvious.
It seems that from then on, Xue Yunzhou became much closer to him.
Thinking that Xue Yunzhou had already guessed his identity, He Yuan tightened his grip on the chopsticks.
At this time, Xue Yunzhou put all his attention on eating. He first picked a dish that suits He Yuan's taste, and chewed it slowly with a chopstick. Said: "This is not poisonous." After saying that, he put this dish in front of He Yuan.
He Yuan was wondering when he learned such a good handwriting, when he saw the dishes in the bowl, he suddenly came back to his senses, and his face suddenly turned dark: "You test the poison for me?"
Xue Yunzhou put another piece of meat in his mouth, nodded to him while eating, and answered vaguely.
He Yuan couldn't get angry, so he could only sullenly say, "No!" After thinking about it, he said, "It's not necessary, and he wouldn't dare to forgive him on this occasion."
Xue Yunzhou smiled at him: "I think so too, but what if he takes some laxatives?"
He Yuan looked at him speechlessly.
The two were talking, when there was a sudden commotion outside, and then a servant hurried in from the side door, rushed to Xue Chong and leaned over to whisper a few words to him, Xue Chong's face was obviously stiff For a moment, he tried his best to restrain his emotions from being exposed.
All of you present are thoughtful people, Qiqi looked at him after noticing the movement, and naturally caught the change in his expression very keenly, and the lively atmosphere in the banquet suddenly became condensed.
Xue Chong stood up with a strong smile, apologized to everyone, and said that he had to go out for a little matter.
Everyone knew that this matter must not be a small one, but due to his status, it was not good to overtly inquire, so they had to echo and ask him to take it easy, while sitting in the banquet and trying their best to stretch their ears.
Xue Yunzhou didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, so he pulled He Yuan's sleeve underneath: "Let's go and have a look!"
He Yuan grabbed his hand: "No need, there are our people outside, if something happens, you can find out when you go back and ask."
Xue Yunzhou stopped breathing, and his palms were sweating almost immediately. He was obviously nervous and his heart beat faster, but he nodded his head pretending to be calm, and let him hold this hand, while the other hand picked up chopsticks and scratched his head. meal.
He Yuan looked at him deeply: "Don't just eat."
"Oh." Xue Yunzhou quickly reached out to pick up the vegetables.
He Yuan said again: "Don't be picky about food, eat something vegetarian."
"Yeah." Xue Yunzhou nodded again and again, almost ordering a movement, but because he was too nervous, he choked suddenly.
He Yuan's expression changed, and he quickly let go of his hand to scoop up the soup for him.
Xue Yunzhou coughed so badly that he reached out to grab the jug and poured himself a few mouthfuls. After he recovered a bit, he realized that He Yuan had already served the soup in front of him.
He Yuan raised his hand on his back to comfort him, and asked, "Is it better?"
Xue Yunzhou felt that he was about to die of happiness, so he nodded quickly, picked up the soup in front of him and drank it down.
Seeing that he was choking, the people nearby were about to come over to greet him. At this moment, a woman's mournful cry came from outside, which scared the people inside who were already busy watching and listening. Jump.
There was so much commotion outside that everyone at the banquet couldn't sit still any longer, they got up and walked out one after another, including Xue Yunzhou and He Yuan who was pulled out by him.
Hearing the woman's cry, Xue Yunzhou originally thought it was a romantic debt caused by the cheap father, but when he came out and listened carefully, he found that something was wrong. The woman's cry did not have any resentment, on the contrary, it revealed deep-seated grief and resentment, more Like weeping for someone.
Regardless of the obstruction of the servants, everyone walked to the gate of the Hou's mansion together, and then saw that the road outside was crowded with people watching and whispering, and the middle of the road was white, and there were two rows of people wearing sackcloth and mourning under the paper money flying all over the sky. Walking slowly, there were eight people in the middle carrying a coffin, and in the front were a middle-aged woman with a vicissitudes of life and a young man in a wheelchair.
Xue Chong's face turned blue and white alternately. With so many eyes watching him, all the countermeasures he could think of could not be implemented. He subconsciously glanced at General Ji and saw him give himself a calm look. Walk down the steps and quickly meet the team in front of you.
The team didn't have any intention of stopping. When the woman saw Xue Chong, she burst into tears and yelled at him, "You shameless bastard! You want to murder your own elder brother! This time, we must seek justice when we come back!"
Xue Chong seemed to have never heard his words, looked at the coffin behind her with red eyes, choked up and said: "Sister-in-law, there is...but brother?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Xue Chong's elder brother Xue Guang died in battle more than ten years ago. It is said that there is only one son Xue Yunqing left. Xue Yunqing broke his leg when he was young.
As for Xue Guang's widow, Mrs. Gu, she is a woman in a deep house after all, so no one could identify her before.
The residence of the Marquis of Zhongyi used to be the residence of the Uncle Zhongyi. At that time, the head of the family was Uncle Zhongyi, Xue Guang. After Xue Guang died in the battle, the imperial court conferred the title of Marquis, because his son was disabled and could not take over the title of Marquis of Zhongyi. It fell on the head of his younger brother Xue Chong.
Facing Gu's censure at this moment, Xue Chong said with a sad expression: "Sister-in-law, is there any misunderstanding?" As he said that, he stumbled towards the coffin behind him.
"Stop him!" Gu Shi yelled, and after a few strong servants stretched out their hands to hold him back, he strode over and pointed at his nose, "Stop playing around here! You think what you do can be concealed from the world ? God sees everything! You can hide for a while, but not for a lifetime!"
Xue Chong didn't look annoyed, and said sadly: "Sister-in-law must have listened to someone's slander and misunderstood me, so don't let everyone know about the empty words, let the elder brother go to the ground for safety first?"
"What kind of soil did you enter! Being killed by a traitor, what kind of safety is it for!" Gu cried again, and after crying for a while, he raised his eyes and looked around. When he saw He Yuan, he immediately rushed over and knelt down in front of him, tears streaming down his face. Said: "I beg the prince to be the master for the minister's wife!"
Xue Chong is now a hundred dissatisfied with Xue Yunzhou, the eldest son of the first son who only talks empty words but does not do anything. However, due to He Yuan's identity, he has no choice but to continue to put on a loving father's face, and after welcoming them in, he graciously orders people Serving tea, he said with a smile: "The dog only knows how to read since he was a child.
