Xiao Han, who was a little dizzy, was still standing there, thinking wildly, but he didn't expect that Old Hua, who had just escaped, would appear in the courtyard again for some reason!
Moreover, there were several sturdy handymen appearing with him this time, all of them holding basins, rice bags, branches and other utensils in their hands!
When these people saw Xiao Han covered in dust and standing motionless in the courtyard, the faces of the handymen immediately changed. Even the hands holding things began to tremble, and they almost ran away without turning around!
"What are you going to do?"
Xiao Han heard the sound at this time, raised his head blankly, and looked at the group of people opposite, but he didn't react for a while!
However, there was no need for Xiao Han to react anymore, because just as he finished speaking, Old Man Hua opposite had already waved his arm decisively!
"Spill it!"
Hearing Old Man Hua's order, in an instant! Glutinous rice, garlic, peach wood branches, and a pot of blood of a black dog were all thrown towards Xiao Han!
And because the handyman carrying the blood was too nervous, he accidentally threw the basin of blood away!
In just a moment, the quiet courtyard immediately exploded with all kinds of sounds!
After the messy noise, he looked at Xiao Han. He was already covered in blood, his hair was messy, and there was a huge copper basin on his head! There were glutinous rice grains and garlic seeds stained red with blood on his clothes and shoes.
, and branches.
Just looking at this embarrassment, it is even worse than when he just walked out of the Qinling Mountains!
"What's wrong! What's wrong! This is Mr. Marquis?!"
While there was chaos in the backyard, Butler Lu and others in the front yard finally listened to Xiao Ai and others' cries and rushed over after hearing the news!
Just when they saw Xiao Han's appearance, they were all stunned and stared at him for a long time without being able to speak!
Is this still our own Marquis? How come this appearance is not as good as that of a beggar from Chang'an?
"Wait a minute, what do you call him? Master Hou? Is he Xiao Han, that little brat?"
On the other side, Old Man Hua, who ordered the ghost hunt, finally realized something was wrong!
Shouldn't ghosts be incorporeal? How can something be splashed all over it? Besides, ghosts should have no shadows, so what's that thing dragging so long on the ground?
"Master Hua, what are you... doing!!!" Finally, after being silent for a long time, Butler Lu reacted, clapped his thighs and yelled, then rushed forward, wanting to save the embarrassed Xiao Han.
Good job sorting it out!
However, how can there be any way to sort out Xiao Han's current miserable state? Poor Butler Lu stretched out his hand and made gestures for a long time, but he was still like a dog biting a hedgehog, with nowhere to start!
"Quick! Why are you still standing there? Send the Marquis to take a bath! Go get some new sets of clothes..."
The farce of returning home has finally ended hastily.
Those servants who didn’t understand what was going on from beginning to end were kicked one by one by Butler Lu and sent Xiao Han to take a bath. The remaining few people quickly cleaned up the messy courtyard. As for that
This poor and innocent black dog will end up in someone's belly tonight.
"You mean, the Marquis encountered an avalanche again this time? It was almost... bah bah bah!"
While Xiao Han was taking a bath, Housekeeper Lu, Uncle Lengzi and others finally learned the morning news from Old Man Hua. After verifying it twice, they finally understood why today, whether it was Xiao Han or Xiao Ai, even Hua
The old men all look nervous!
"No, this year's Chinese New Year, we must ask the old god Yuan Tiangang to perform rituals. We won't dare to do this kind of thing again in the future!" Butler Lu, who knew everything, turned pale and kept talking about how he was so lucky to have such a good fortune!
However, it is not a solution to be in danger all the time. He now strongly suspects that there is something in the Qinling Mountains that is at odds with his own prince, otherwise there would not be accidents in the Qinling Mountains every time! He still needs to find Taoist Yuan to resolve the issue before he can feel at ease.
"Speaking of which, it was because of the news from Lunzi that things became so complicated this time?" Unlike Butler Lu, who was constantly frightened, Uncle Lunzi's focus was obviously not on the avalanche, but on the news.
at the root.
"Hey...who would have thought that the news was wrong!" Old Man Hua didn't think too much. He just shook his head after hearing this, with a somewhat annoyed expression on his face.
He really didn't expect this. Fortunately, the consequences of this incident were not serious. He only lost a set of clothes. Although these clothes were given by the emperor himself... well, the blue robe turned into a flower robe, and the emperor should not blame him.
Bar?
"You stupid bastard! I'm waiting for you to come back..."
Everyone present was thinking secretly, but everyone was thinking about different things. Only the fool who was still in the palace felt a cold wind blowing through him, making him feel chilled all over!
The dark clouds in the sky cleared away!
The news that Xiao Han returned safe and sound quickly spread in Chang'an City from noon that day.
Moreover, the fact that he beat up the Japanese envoys in the Golden Palace, but received only a few mild reprimands from the emperor, also spread, causing many ministers who were resentful towards Xiao Han to have no choice but to throw themselves into the palace.
I threw the piece of paper into the brazier and watched it slowly turn into a pile of ashes.
In Sanyuan County, Zhang Qiang and others who had left secretly were chased back by steward Lu with fast horses. Xue Pan, who had fainted, also woke up. After seeing Xiao Han safe and sound, he burst into tears immediately, as if he was going to kill himself.
Cry out all the grievances.
So much so that An An thought it was Xiao Han who bullied her mother, and she hated her father, whom she had no memory of, for several days. Finally, under the attack of a lot of candy and toys, she reluctantly accepted Xiao Han.

————————————————————
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Han has been home for three days. During these three days, Xiao Han did nothing but stayed at home with his wife and children.
Xue Pan was too sad this time, and his body was severely damaged. Even though Old Man Hua prescribed a lot of nourishing medicine, it was only today that he could barely get up and move around.
In these three days, Xiao Han did not leave the house even half a step!
The powerful and aristocratic families in Chang'an also seemed to have forgotten him. Except for a few very familiar people who sent people to express their condolences, no one else came to visit him.
Of course, this is not to say that Xiao Han has become a loner in Chang'an, but because it has long been an unspoken rule in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty that whenever officials are sent back to Beijing to allow them some time to reunite with their families.
In addition, there is another very important point, that is, the Chinese New Year is coming soon!
