Chapter 678 [Peace is good] (Part 2)

Xia Changming originally thought that Hu Xiaotian would leave Xichuan and return to Dongliang County, but Hu Xiaotian wanted to go to Qingyun to take a look. There was indeed a complex in this. Qingyun was his first step in traveling the world, and it was also his first official position in this era, which left him with many memories. Xia Changming and Hu Xiaotian agreed to go to Qingyun to meet him in one day and then return together.

Fei Xiao sent Hu Xiaotian and Long Xiyue outside Qingyun City and went with Xia Changming.

At dawn, Hu Xiaotian and Long Xiyue walked side by side to Qingyun County. The Qingyun Bridge on Tongji River had been repaired. Walking on this bluestone-carved bridge, I suddenly remembered that when I first came to Qingyun, the Qingyun Bridge was broken, and Zhang Ziqian was able to cross them with a small boat, but now it is life and death. Hu Xiaotian held the railings of the bluestone bridge, looked at the river water, and said softly: "The two crossings at the south bridge are like shuttles, and the beautiful scenery in the river is woven."

Long Xiyue looked at him in surprise, for some reason why he suddenly became angry and started a couplet. Just as he was about to think about the second couplet, he heard Hu Xiaotian say again: "The tower at the end of the west bank is like a pen, writing articles in the sky." His voice was filled with sadness.

Long Xiyue didn't know why he was so sad. After asking, he learned about the past between Hu Xiaotian and Zhang Ziqian. He sighed softly and said, "Actually, the people in this world have their own fate and their own luck. You don't have to force it. If Mr. Zhang knows that he can know that you come here to pay tribute to him, he will definitely feel relieved."

Hu Xiaotian nodded. Zhang Ziqian was a talented man in Xichuan. Unfortunately, he was dedicated to assisting Li Tianheng and devoted himself to the Li family. The reason he assassinated him was not because they had a grudge, but because both sides were in different positions. Zhang Ziqian was Li Tianheng's think tank, right-hand man, and one of the masterminds of entering Hongmuchuan. Only by eliminating him can the Xichuan conspiracy to invade Hongmuchuan. Now, Hongmuchuan has just stabilized. If he is under the pressure of 60,000 troops at this time, he may not have the power to resist at all. Assassination is a method that Hu Xiaotian had no choice.

However, Hu Xiaotian did not expect that there were many conflicts within Xichuan. Feng Xianlin's assassination of Zhang Ziqian was obviously under Yang Daoyuan's instruction. What was the purpose of Yang Daoyuan assassinating Zhang Ziqian? After a little thought, it is not difficult to infer that Yang Daoyuan should have wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of Zhang Ziqian's surveillance and control the power of commanding the 60,000 troops. From this incident, we can see Yang Daoyuan's ambition. Even if they take down Redwood Chuan, Yang Daoyuan will take the opportunity to be independent and get rid of Li Tianheng's control.

This incident made Hu Xiaotian feel unprecedented pressure. The fall of Red Muchuan into his own control is equivalent to shaking the southern road of Xichuan. No wonder Li Tianheng made a desperate bet.

Long Xiyue held Hu Xiaotian's arm and comforted her softly: "Don't be sad!"

Hu Xiaotian smiled and said, "It's not sad, it's just a pity that talents like Mr. Zhang shouldn't have ended like this." The two continued to walk towards Qingyun City Gate. There were not many troops on Qingyun's side. Last night, the main general and the army were assassinated and the grain and grass camp were burned. This matter was already rumored. Yan Hucheng made a decision to temporarily postpone the march into Hongmuchuan, and the army temporarily retreated to Xiezhou, while he went to Xizhou overnight to report the news to the general Li Tianheng.

Hu Xiaotian thought that he would definitely become famous all over the world after this night. After all, he appeared in front of Yan Hucheng in his original form, but what he didn't expect was that the news that Yang Daoyuan colluded with the Tianlang Mountain horse bandits to assassinate Zhang Ziqian, which ended up having nothing to do with him. It was a great thing that someone was punished for murder. But Hu Xiaotian was actually a little disappointed, and the opportunity to be famous all over the world was gone in a daze.

Long Xiyue saw his loss and held his hand and smiled: "People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. Of course, it is best if someone helps you with this kind of thing."

Hu Xiaotian said: "Yan Hucheng helps me cover it up. It seems that he has some ideas." Thinking of what Zhang Ziqian said when he was dying, it would be amazing if Yan Hucheng really heard it. Yan Hucheng was so filial, maybe he would really fight to the death with him. Perhaps it was because his last words made Yan Hucheng believe it. He might have really had a strange intention, otherwise he would not have concealed the assassination for himself. But Yan Hucheng was suspected of being a mistake. Since Hu Xiaotian dared to appear in front of him with his own appearance, he wanted to make this matter bigger and let Li Tianheng know that his territory would never be interfered with others, and the deterrent effect of expectations was not achieved.

Although I have been away from Qingyun County for many years, the situation here has not changed much. Even the county government still looks like the past. Hu Xiaotian took Long Xiyue around the county town and finally came to the ruins of Huichuntang and Fulai Inn. It still became rubble. Thinking of the voices, appearances and smiles of the kind people in the past, Hu Xiaotian felt sorry for him.

The two arrived at the most famous Hongyan Tower in the city at noon. Hu Xiaotian ordered a few special dishes. The fish here were the best, but Long Xiyue did not eat meat, but just picked vegetarian dishes. While eating, they talked about Hu Xiaotian's past interesting things, and Long Xiyue laughed happily from time to time.

At this moment, a riot suddenly came from outside, but a beggar came to beg for food in front of the door and was kicked to the ground by his friend.

Long Xiyue was angry when she saw it. She rarely got angry, but she was the leader of the Beggars' Sect. Most of the beggars in the world are from the Beggars' Sect. As the leader, how could he be indifferent to seeing the gangs being bullied? Long Xiyue said angrily: "Stop! How can you hit an old man?"

The old man with white hair raised his head. Long Xiyue wanted to help him, but unexpectedly the old man looked at her in a lustful way and said, "Beauty...Beauty..." and reached out and grabbed her.

Long Xiyue was so shocked that she was lost. Hu Xiaotian came to her and pulled her over. The old beggar crawled over like a dog: "Beauty...beauty..." Hu Xiaotian used a scabbard to hold his forehead against him, and then raised his jaw with the scabbard. Hu Xiaotian had already recognized that the old beggar in front of him was actually the richest man in Qingyun. He couldn't help but feel strange in his heart, but he didn't know why this former richest man had fallen to the point of begging along the street, and he should have looked crazy.

Wan Boping smiled very strangely: "Hehe...hehe...beauty...I like beauties..."

Long Xiyue no longer sympathized with her now and hid behind Hu Xiaotian.

The waiter came over and stuffed him two buns: "Get out! Get away! Damn, you used to be arrogant and bully men and women, you are still today."

Wan Boping refused to leave after getting the bun, and looked at Long Xiyue. The waiter couldn't help but kicked him in the stomach, kicking Wan Boping to the ground, and the bun in his hand also got away. This attracted his attention. He hurried to chase the bun, but before he could catch the bun, a wild dog rushed up and took the bun away. Wan Boping cursed and chased the wild dog.

Everyone burst into laughter. Hu Xiaotian looked at Wan Boping's decline so far, and couldn't help but sigh. Only Long Xiyue didn't understand the reason. He thought that this old beggar was so pitiful, why didn't anyone sympathize with him? Back at the table and sit down again, Hu Xiaotian just told her the whole story. After hearing this, Long Xiyue nodded and said, "In this way, he has suffered the retribution he deserves, but now that he looks like this, everyone doesn't have to make things difficult for him."

The waiter came over to pour tea for the two of them. Hu Xiaotian said, "Waiter, when I just passed by Wanfu, I saw that there seemed to be someone living in Wanfu."

The waiter smiled and said, "There is no Wan Mansion? It is now the Hu Mansion and has been bought by the Hu family."

Hu Xiaotian and Long Xiyue looked at each other, and both of them felt that this was a coincidence.

Hu Xiaotian said: "I wonder who the master of the Hu family is?"

The waiter shook his head and said, "I haven't seen the master before. My wife has seen him a few times, but I know that there are many female relatives in this family."

After the two of them finished their meal, Hu Xiaotian settled the tent and stopped and looked at it when Long Xiyue passed by the gate of Wan Mansion. It was indeed changed to the plaque in front of the door. The gate was closed and there were no servants outside the door.

Long Xiyue said: "Do you want to go in and take a look?"

Hu Xiaotian said: "This garden of Wanjia is well built. Forget it, let's go."

The two passed by the corner of the street in front, but saw Wan Boping sitting in the sun, grabbing lice, and putting one into his mouth, chewing it crunched. Long Xiyue was disgusted and frowned and urged Hu Xiaotian to leave quickly.

Hu Xiaotian asked her to wait aside. He came to Wan Boping, took out a ingot of gold and threw it on the ground. Wan Boping hurriedly picked it up from the ground, bit it with his teeth, and then raised his head and looked at Hu Xiaotian with gratitude. It seemed that he still recognized gold.

Hu Xiaotian said: "Mr. Wan, do you still recognize me?"

Wan Boping looked confused and shook his head vigorously: "I don't remember... Could it be... you are the client of Lianxianglou?"

Hu Xiaotian was really amused and crying. He pointed to the mansion behind Wan Boping and said, "Do you still remember your home?"

Wan Boping turned around and looked at it, scratched his head again: "Home? My home... is under the bridge hole..."

Hu Xiaotian said: "Didn't your family live in it in the past?"

Wan Boping looked back and suddenly thought of something: "Ghost... Ghost... There is a female ghost to kill me... I'll take my life..." He was so scared that he picked up a pile of rags on the ground, turned around and ran away. Hu Xiaotian saw that he had such a strong reaction, and was even more surprised in his heart, what exactly Wan Boping was afraid of? Female ghost? How could there be a female ghost in Wan Mansion?
