Chapter 23 Chen Guoda Xiao

(Third update)

——————————

Hearing the words, Xiao Hou frowned, but still stopped.

"What else?"

"Sir, are you really willing to leave like this?"

Looking at Xiao Hou, An Bochen asked calmly.

"How to say this?"

"My husband has been a housekeeper for Mr. Li for so many years. When he came out of the mountain, he was a white body. After eight years, he still had no reputation. He could only take a bag of treasure to be a rich man. Are you really willing?"

When the words fell, Xiao Hou's arm suddenly trembled, and a strong unwillingness floated in his eyes, which instantly calmed down and pretended to be calm.

Looking at the words and colors, An Bochen was secretly happy in his heart and knew that his words were right in Xiao Hou's weakness, and then he continued.

"Sir, as a great wise man, he has to spend his whole life and only a little money is better."

"Well, what you said is light. I'm depressed here. What else can I do?"

The old man's face turned slightly red. Xiao Hou snorted coldly, fell off his robe sleeve heavily, and turned around to leave.

"I have a way. If I can succeed, it is impossible for me to embark on an official career."

One foot had stepped out of the stairs, but it was fixed in mid-air and had not fallen for a long time. Xiao Hou turned around, looked at An Bochen with a cold face, and said after a long time.

"Let's talk about it."

"With Mr. Xiao's means, he must have known that Mr. Li fell into the hands of the Duke of Huo. If he can take him back and continue to be a puppet, with Mr. Li's reputation and connections in the court, it's not a matter of wanting Mr. Xiao to be an official."

As soon as An Bochen finished speaking, the old man opposite looked up and laughed.

"Who are you, Duke of Huo? Where are you going to be the Duke of the country? Humph, that's the Longtan Tiger Cave. Don't think of mosquitoes flying in, not to mention your little servant..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by An Bochen.

"Mr. Xiao doesn't know that Zuo Xiang has secretly transferred Jin Wuwei's salary, intending to force the Duke of Huo. The prince still doesn't know it now, and the prince has secretly collected the grain and salary as early as a few days ago, leaving the grain transfer order hidden in a secret place. As long as Bo Chen exchanges this, the military situation is urgent. I think the Duke will not hold on to a fake prince. What's more, the disappearance of the prince will be harmful to him.

Hearing An Bochen talking, Xiao Hou's expression gradually eased.

"How did you know?"

"Bochen has read the secret letter of Mr. Li this morning."

Seeing that Xiao Hou was still hesitant, An Bochen took a step forward and said in a low voice.

"What is Mr. Xiao still hesitating about? At worst, if Bochen can't turn around at dawn, it means that Bochen is dead and he can leave. Ruo Bochen was lucky enough to take the prince to turn around, and naturally everyone was very happy. As far as Mr. Yu is concerned, there is a lot of profit but no harm. Why don't you give it a try?"

A trace of brilliance flashed in the triangular eyes, and Xiao Hou blushed, as if he had finally made up his mind and suddenly clenched his fist.

"Good! Since Bo Chen did not hesitate to go deep into the tiger's den, Xiao waited until dawn.

"So, it's a deal."

He arched his hand towards Xiaohou. An Bochen looked at the sky and took a deep breath.

"It's not early, so Bo Chen went to the Duke's Mansion."

After saying that, An Bochen no longer stayed, crossed Xiao Hou and hurried downstairs.

"Be careful!"

Standing at the window and looking at the teenager running into the night, Xiao Hou blushed and shouted in a low voice.

The moonlight is hazy, spreading the window lattice, like a layer of frost. As An Bochen gradually fades away, the fiery color on the old man's face gradually fades, as gloomy as water.

"Well, I don't know how thick the sky is, pretend to be smart."

After brushing off his skirt, Xiao Hou leisurely sat down and picked up the teapot beside him and filled it with tea.

After a glass of drink, Xiao Hou stretched out comfortably, and an inexplicable smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

"Indeed, after serving the prince for eight years, how could I be willing to leave like this? But now that the situation in the State of Liu is in turmoil, how can I be a minor official and continue to flatter?

The night wind flooded into the window lattice, blowing up the old man's long white hair, and a black print suddenly appeared in the corners of his temples, with the word "match" on the book.

The black seal will only appear on two types of people, one is a death row prisoner, and the other is a recidivist who will never be pardoned. But for Xiao Hou, this black seal is a medal that records his glorious history. He was born in the State of Qi on the west coast, but he was not a hermit in the south of the mountain, and he did not have the ambition to cultivate himself and pacify the world. In the past, Chen, a neighbor of the State of Qi, rebelled in Xishan, and the State of Chen was in chaos. It took seven years before it completely calmed down, which greatly damaged the vitality of the State of Chen. From then on, it became the weakest vassal state. The world thinks that the reason why the rebels can be invincible is because of the seven-grade charms. Who doesn't know that one person plays the most critical role in this. The rebel leader dreamed that he made up the nonsense such as the god of Xishan who gave him the book of heaven, and it was also what he did to win the hearts of the people. That time, Chen Jun suffered unspeakably and secretly commanded. However, among the rebels, he is not famous, and he can't even rank in the top 30. Because his surname is Xiao, he always greets people with a smile, so he is nicknamed Smiling Fox. This person is Xiao Hou, who is now sitting high on the top of Moyun.

To be precise, he planned the rebellion, but when the rebellion subsided, he only came to an end that the frontier would never be pardoned because he was not the mastermind to escape the death penalty.

No one knows that before the rebellion, Xiao Hou was just a teacher in a small town on the border of Qi. He had ink in his stomach, but he had no ambition. He never wanted to become famous. Just because he lost to Shi with a prince from the State of Chen, he lost all his face in front of the students and lost his job. He was furious and vowed to take revenge.

Kill that brother? If you kill one, there will be another. Kill all the princes? As long as there is a family, there will never be those high-ranking princes. Destroying those families? It's a little troublesome, but if it destroys the whole State of Chen, it won't be so troublesome.

So, Xiao Hou spent ten years planning. He gradually found that his skills were much higher than he had thought before. Maybe he was meditating day and night. Before he was 50 years old, he was full of hair, forcing out the conspiracy and ferocious means hidden in his bones. Then, overnight, he successfully "revenge" and got the indelible medal on the temples, and then was rescued by Mr. Li and came to Moyun Tower to be an ordinary housekeeper.

All this has cost him 25 years.

He can do a lot of things in 25 years and completely change a person. Today, Xiao Hou is no longer the angry teacher. After seven years of ups and downs, he is more tolerant, more guising, and seeks benefits to the greatest extent.

"It seems that Mr. Li really can't come back. After waiting for eight years, he finally waited for this day. Tut-tut, from today on, there is no Li Gongzi on the Moyun building, only me, Mr. Xiao.

Sip of tea, Xiao Hou smiled quietly, pulled out a stack of scrolls from the sleeve, glanced at it and threw it into several cases.

At first glance, this stack of scrolls is very similar to what An Bochen sees in the daytime, because this is the real secret letter. What is recorded in it is naturally very different from what An Bochen saw. For example, the Duke of Huo had already known about the secret grain transfer of Zuo Xiang, and he had already received the grain adjustment order given to him by Mr. Li.

He tapped his fingers on the table, and Xiao Hou narrowed his eyes into a line and muttered to himself.

"There are three things that Huo Guo's fair life hates most, betrayal, deception and threats. You An Bochen commit two things alone. In this way, it will be difficult not to die."

"Although Duke Huo and Mr. Li have a relationship of interest, how can they have no feelings after such a long relationship? It's best to vent your anger with An Bochen. Only after the Duke of the Duke vents his anger and calmness can I talk to him. Although Mr. Li is dead, as long as his foundation is there, the Duke of Huo can still get help from the wild. Therefore, Moyun Tower still needs someone to be in charge. In addition to me, Marquis Xiao, where can I find a better candidate?

After drinking the third sip of tea, Xiao Hou only felt refreshed, and the smile at the corners of his mouth became stronger and stronger. He looked at the Tibetan Jade Hall and his eyes flashed uncertainly.

"That girl is weird. It's not unusual to look at her temperament. It's better not to move for the time being. As long as the general trend is on my side and An Bochen dies, what kind of storm can she set off... I really didn't see it before that An Bochen was a little anxious. If he hadn't met me, he might have achieved something in the future. Unfortunately, his cleverness was mistaken for cleverness, and the huge Moyunlou would change hands tomorrow.

Yuehua fell into the window lattice and fell on the old man with a sneering face, but he was put under the dark robe and lost its bright white luster.

.......

After a burst of running and running out of two streets, An Bochen finally stopped.

With a long sigh of relief, An Bochen looked up at the big house not far away, with a look of determination in his eyes.

Previously, when he first saw Xiao Hou, he said that it was a lie that he was not panicked, but he didn't know why. When he thought of being in danger and the secret that could help Simajin go home, the panic in his heart dissipated in an instant. He was calm and talked with Xiao Hou, who couldn't see the details clearly, and analyzed the situation in the court.

With a slight wry smile, An Bochen shook his head.

He knew nothing about the situation in North Korea and China. The reason why he could say that was that he was in a hurry. He put together the secrets of what he saw and heard and the secret letters. But it really sounded like that, and even he began to admire himself.

"It can also be regarded as a blind cat who caught a dead mouse and accidentally fooled the old man Xiao. However, the secret letter from Mr. Li is real. Maybe it can really impress the Duke of Huo."

The teenager said to himself. After a burst of wild running, he left Mo Yunlou and stood in front of the Duke of Huo. His heart fluttered.

Before talking about fashion with Xiao Hou, he didn't think it was a big deal, but at this time, he was about to step into the public house, but he couldn't stop being nervous. After all, this is the mansion of the elder of the Three Dynasties and today's right prime minister. He is just a servant. Last night, he was just recognized by the Duke of Huo and destroyed the acupuncture point. Tonight, he swaggered to talk to him about conditions. He was so bold. To be honest, only Simajin could do it, but he was learned by An Bochen.

"That's all. That's the only way to do it now."

After calming down, An Bochen had no time to think too much. He took a deep breath and strode to the Duke of Huo.

I don't know who knows that his departure made the unmoving undercurrent of Liujing become unpredictable again.
