Chapter 319 Hou's House
The stone steps are low and slanted, and the strong horse can gallop up straight, and there are four lanes on both sides that can accommodate two vehicles.
At the end of the one hundred and eight-foot-foot-wide stone steps is a copper gate with a copper ring on it, solemn and ferocious beast. There are eighteen burly men on both sides, wearing armor, holding long halberds, wearing waist knives, hanging quiveres, and hanging quiveres. They are wings like stone men, and are solemn and mighty.
It seems that even if there are flies on their noses, they will not reach out to drive them; even if there are poisonous snakes, they will not move; even if there is a jade girl passing by naked, their eyes will not blink.
In fact, there are no one in the vicinity within a radius of a hundred feet. Not only are there no poisonous snakes, there are no naked beauties, and even flies cannot fly in.
Without special permission, if someone wants to approach this giant house, then it may be possible to rely on miracles.
Miracles happen occasionally, and they happen on this day.
··········
August 30th, rain.
The continuous rain continued to fall on the bluestone steps and slowly slid down.
The clouds were floating in the air, and the rain made the whole street wet and cold.
On the long street, raindrops hit the guards outside the gate, but they still remained motionless.
They know very well when to move and when not to move. At least they must not move at this time and here.
When the young guards first came, they didn't understand this truth very well.
However, once, a poisonous worm crawled into the shoes of a certain guard, which made him feel extremely itchy and finally couldn't help but move. This was originally a very ordinary thing, and the guards didn't hinder anything.
The only unusual thing is that this incident was unfortunately seen by Lord Wei Haoke, the chief manager of the Marquis's mansion.
The Lord Wei Haoke walked up with a smile and asked him if he was itchy?
The guards nodded like chickens pecking at rice.
Then Wei Haoke cut off his right leg without root!
"Your leg will never itch again."
——At that time, all the guards immediately understood this rule.
In Wei Haoke's words, "I have never walked this road and I will rarely see you. But in this case, you can even let me see you moving, how can I rest assured?"
It is worth mentioning that since that time, no poisonous insects have appeared near the Hou Mansion.
··········
Wei Haoke really rarely walks on the main road. When he wants to enter the Hou Mansion, he often walks on the small roads.
In fact, except for the Marquis himself, there are very few people passing through this long street from morning to night.
Every person who wants to visit the Marquis' Mansion will give a long time in advance the appointment of a date, prepare carriages and horses, and prepare etiquette.
It is not an easy task to get here.
There was even a guard who was drunk and bragging, saying: "No one can trespass in! Every person who can pass through my nose is a famous figure in the capital!"
He should have been proud.
But today's situation seems to be a little different.
In the rainy street, a person suddenly appeared on the green stone slabs. In the dripping rain.
A young man with a handle that is more than two feet long and has a simple and beautiful knife around his waist.
This man was squatting on the corner of the street, with raindrops, as if he was in a daze, and looked quite down and out.
As for how this person appeared, no guard could see clearly.
··········
The first reaction of the guards was stunned.
They could not understand what was happening in front of them. They blinked hard, trying their best to see the man's face, but they did not dare to make any moves.
They were afraid that the figure would be just an illusion for them, and if they were subject to punishment due to this, it would be very unworthy.
But in this short moment of dazed moment, a luxurious and elegant, wide and exquisite carriage, luxurious but not contaminated with vulgarity, had already come from a distance.
The sound of horse hooves pedaled, and the carriage was moving very fast.
Everyone recognized that this was the carriage of the owner of the Marquis' Mansion.
——What will happen if the owner of the Marquis’ Mansion sees this person?
So after blinking the 24th time, an imperial guard finally gritted his teeth and moved, took a light step, and walked towards the man.
As soon as he moved, everyone moved.
Everyone surrounded the man together.
The Imperial Guard finally breathed a sigh of relief.
That was not an illusion, they obviously saw it.
But at this moment, a gentle voice suddenly came from the carriage, and the gentle voice contained a tone that no one could object: "Don't move anyone."
·········
Murong Qiushui, male, 26 years old, unmarried, hereditary first-class Weiling Marquis. He has a lot of sword-killing. Others call him the No. 1 Playboy from Kyoto behind his back.
After hearing this, he not only didn't even mean to be angry, but he seemed to be very happy.
"Only after three generations of officials can we know how to dress and eat." He said: "It is not something that everyone can do to be the number one playboy."
·········
Murong Qiushui is not just "the number one playboy in Kyoto".
In fact, he will have many things.
He can rank first in the capital in wine tasting, appreciating jade, appreciating swords, and seeing beauty.
Murong Qiushui was a very talented young marquis, but his talent seemed to be used more to enjoy it. The things he used were the best, and for this reason, he also developed the ability to easily distinguish between good and bad.
The horse stops, the car stops.
Murong Qiushui got out of the carriage, and someone next to him immediately held a big umbrella for him.
His footsteps were stepping in the rain, slowly and gently walking towards the person squatting on the long street.
He walked carefully every step, so no drop of rain from the ground splashed on his upper.
When Murong Qiushui walked to that person, she was still calm, clean, and still had no rain at all.
The guards all held their breath, and no one knew how Marquis Murong Qiushui would deal with this inexplicable and unauthorized person.
It was a serious crime for him to trespass on the street of the Hou Mansion, and he even wore a knife, which was even more guilty!
Murong Qiushui looked at the knife on the man with his shiny eyes.
The man's face was pale, as if he was a little weak, and he ignored his gaze.
The guards' hearts were filled with depression.
No one can ignore the Marquis like this.
Murong Qiushui was not angry, and he whispered: "Give me this knife, I'll let you go, you can take away one thousand taels of gold."
One thousand taels of gold will be exempted from a crime and buy a knife.
The guards' breathing became a little rapid.
Unexpectedly, the man ignored Murong Qiushui, as if he could not hear what he was saying.
Murong Qiushui didn't say it again.
He reached out and grabbed the knife.
But just when he touched the knife, the young man who looked very depressed and depressed suddenly changed.
The raindrops were broken and the knife suddenly slashed out!
