As the sun set, Hu Xiaotian took Liang Dazhuang and Liu Kuohai to the mass grave in Yangjiapo. The reason why he hid the secret from Murong Feiyan was because she was from Jingzhao Mansion after all, and she also knew the true identity of the iron certificate of the alchemy book.
Meaning. Murong Feiyan has always been a person who has trouble with his eyes, and is a bit rigid in dealing with many things. Hu Xiaotian has to conceal some things, which are related to the life and death of the Hu family, so he dare not be careless in the slightest.
Following Hu Jinniu's guidance, it was easy to find Hu Bucheng's tomb. The tomb was overgrown with grass. It seemed that everyone had been cleaning it for a while. The stone that served as a tombstone was also covered with moss.
The two words "Taurus" carved in the past have become blurred due to years of wind and rain erosion. Hu Xiaotian first bowed three times in front of the grave and said silently in his heart: "My uncle, I have no intention of disturbing your peace. It's just a matter of ironclad writing."
It's very important, related to the future life and death of the Hu family, so I can only disturb you today." He asked Liu Kuohai to open a jar of wine and pour it around the tomb with his own hands.
Liu Kuohai removed the stone, and Liang Dazhuang and Liang Dazhuang used tools to dig together. Hu Xiaotian asked the two to be careful when digging and not to damage the things underneath. After digging three feet into the ground, Liang Dazhuang's
The hoe hit a hard object and made a clanking sound. The two abandoned the tools and dug with their hands. Not long after, they pulled out a dark iron plate from the ground. At first glance, it looked like a tile. It was originally covered with tiles.
The oilcloth had been completely rotted for too long, so Liang Dazhuang handed the iron plate into Hu Xiaotian's hands.
Hu Xiaotian looked over and over again. This iron plate was extremely heavy. It should not be an ordinary iron plate. It had been buried deep in the ground for five years and there was no rust. It must be extraordinary. Because the sky was dim, he did not take a closer look.
, he directly wrapped the iron plate with cloth and put it away. He then asked Liu Kuohai and his two men to bury the pit and reset it, and then bowed to the tomb three times before leaving.
What happened today should be an unexpected surprise. If the iron certificate of the alchemy book is true, then the copy that dad treasured in the Shangshu Mansion is fake. If it is true, why bother worrying about losing the fake copy?
Troubled, the more Hu Xiaotian thought about it, the more proud he became. As the saying goes, there is no place to be found after breaking through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.
But unlucky things often happen when people get carried away. The carriage bumped violently and accidentally drove into a deep pit. Hu Xiaotian's butt bounced up due to the bump and then fell heavily on the seat. The guy was in pain.
You yelled.
However, Liang Dazhuang did not see clearly when he was driving, and accidentally drove into a pit. He waved his whip several times, but failed to drive the carriage out. Hu Xiaotian and Liu Kuohai had no choice but to get out of the carriage, and Hu Xiaotian could only
Sigh, in this era where cars don’t even exist, don’t think about four-wheel drive off-roading to get out of trouble.
When Liu Kuohai was helping push the cart, Hu Xiaotian saw a lot of carriages and horses parked on the right side of the road. It turned out that the ancestral grave of the Wan family was next to it. Today, Mrs. Wan came to visit her third son's grave, and she brought a lot of entourage with her.
When Hu Xiaotian got out of the car, Mrs. Wan and her maids and servants were about to get on the car. They saw Hu Xiaotian from a distance, hesitated for a moment, and finally came over to say hello. Although Mrs. Wan never believed in Hu Xiaotian, there was one thing
She couldn't deny that Hu Xiaotian was the benefactor of their Wan family. She directed several servants to come over to help. She came to Hu Xiaotian and poured out a blessing and said: "Common woman, please see Mr. Hu."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Mrs. Wan, what a coincidence?"
Mrs. Wan said: "I'm here to visit Tingguang's grave."
Hu Xiaotian had nothing to talk about with her. He also knew that although Mrs. Wan looked kind-hearted, she was cold-blooded and ruthless behind the scenes. She tried to put Le Yao to death several times. If it weren't for him, the poor little widow would only
I'm afraid that the beauty has faded away long ago. Thinking of Le Yao, I can't help but think of the nonsense she told when she had a high fever. I wonder why she is so afraid of Wan Tingguang's soul? Could Wan Tingguang's death have anything to do with her?
Hu Xiaotian said: "Mrs. Wan still needs to take care of her body."
Mrs. Wan sighed: "Thank you for your concern."
At this time, Hu Xiaotian's carriage had been successfully pushed up from the mud pit, and Hu Xiaotian took his leave.
Sitting in the carriage, looking through the window in the direction of the Wan family's ancestral graves, Hu Xiaotian frowned. He suddenly thought of a very difficult question. If Wan Tingguang's death was related to Le Yao, how should he face this?
What is the matter? Is it a matter of extinguishing relatives for justice or bending the law for personal gain? This is really a difficult question.
When I returned to my residence in Sande Lane, there were already people waiting there, but it was Song Shaofu, the shopkeeper of Hongyan Tower, who made a special trip to buy tonics and bring wine and food to visit. Unfortunately, Hu Xiaotian was not there, so he missed it. Just as he was about to leave, Hu Xiaotian came
arrive.
Song Shaofu came here firstly to check on Hu Xiaotian's condition, and secondly to discuss the charity sale with him. According to him, the charity sale was so popular that it was originally planned to be held the day after tomorrow, but he heard that Hu Xiaotian was injured, so he came here to discuss it.
Reschedule the date.
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's just some flesh wounds. It will be fine after a night of rest. Since everyone is interested in this matter, it is better to hurry up sooner rather than later and proceed according to your original plan." Hu Xiaotian also wanted to get rid of this matter as soon as possible.
Done.
Song Shaofu said: "Then the day after tomorrow, I will serve wine at Hongyan Tower to handle this matter."
Hu Xiaotian nodded and said: "No problem, I will call the Yamen, and you will take care of the rest."
Song Shaofu said: "Don't worry, Mr. Hu, I will definitely handle this matter beautifully."
Hu Xiaotian originally wanted to keep him for dinner, but Song Shaofu still had business to do in his shop, so he didn't dare to stay for a long time. He asked the waiter to put down the gifts, wine and food, and hurried back to Hongyan Tower.
After Hu Xiaotian ate and drank enough, he took the iron plate back to his room. He dipped the iron plate in a copper basin to wash away the mud on it. The carved inscriptions on the iron plate were clearly revealed. Hu Xiaotian used the light to identify them.
After reading the writing on the top, he could not suppress his excitement. This iron plate was most likely the iron certificate of the elixir given by the emperor. He carefully kept the iron certificate of the elixir, secretly thinking that this matter must be reported to the emperor immediately.
His father, who was far away in the capital, made him feel at ease knowing this.
At that moment, he wrote a letter home by light, made a rubbing of the alchemy stamp, put it in an envelope, stamped it with a fire seal, and immediately called Liang Dazhuang to his side.
Liang Dazhuang was surprised when he heard that he was asked to return to the capital early tomorrow morning to deliver a message. To say that he had gradually adapted to the life here after coming to Qingyun, and his life gradually began to be comfortable, but he was asked to leave again. Liang Dazhuang naturally
Somewhat reluctant.
Hu Xiaotian really had no other choice. Although Liang Dazhuang talked a little more, he was after all a confidant he brought from the Shangshu Mansion. The matter of the iron certificate of the elixir cannot be known to outsiders, not even Murong Feiyan. Hu Xiaotian said solemnly:
"Dazhuang, this matter is very important. You must rush back to the capital as soon as possible and hand this letter into my father's hands. Remember not to delay on the way and not to let any outsider see this letter."
Liang Dazhuang said: "Young Master, I asked me to take care of you. You can find someone else to deliver the letter."
Hu Xiaotian said: "You idiot, I can't trust anyone else. I'm not driving you away. You will come back immediately after you send this letter to the capital. I have prepared twenty taels of gold for you, which is enough for you to come back every time."
The expenses were spent." He obtained a lot of gold from Wan Boping, so now Hu Xiaotian is particularly generous with his actions.
Liang Dazhuang's mouth flattened, and he almost stopped crying. In fact, he was not that sad in his heart. At this moment, he finally realized that it was a good job.
Hu Xiaotian said: "You must remember not to delay on the way, let alone go to Huajieliuxiang, and return to the capital as soon as possible. You must keep this letter close to your body and hand it to my father." Because of the last incident.
Caige's experience of being cheated, so Hu Xiaotian specially emphasized this matter, for fear that something would go wrong with Liang Dazhuang again.
Liang Dazhuang nodded solemnly.
While the master and servant were talking, they heard Murong Feiyan say from outside: "Master Hu, someone is looking for you!"
Hu Xiaotian stopped talking and stood up. Liang Dazhuang hurriedly went up to support his arm and said sadly: "Master, I haven't been with you for a while. You must know how to take care of yourself." These words were profound and meaningful.
, even Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but be moved by him. He smiled and said: "It's not like I'll never come back. Why are you saying such sensational words? Da Zhuang, I've always been strict with you, so don't bear any grudge against me."
Liang Dazhuang's eyes were red: "Master, you are so kind to me. Even if you beat or scold me, it is for my own good. How can I dare to bear grudges against you?"
Hu Xiaotian said in his heart that when we were in the capital, you scolded me behind my back and I caught you, so you forgot all about it? Looking back on this kind of thing now makes my heart warm. To say that I followed him all the way from the capital to here.
The only servant left was Liang Dazhuang. Although this guy was a little timid, a little talkative, and not very bright in his work, he had no doubt about his loyalty. When it was time to say goodbye, I still had some feelings in my heart.
A feeling of reluctance.
Hu Xiaotian came outside and saw that only Murong Feiyan was in the courtyard and no one else was there. He couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Feiyan, you lied to me again."
Murong Feiyan said: "I didn't lie to you." She sent a greeting note to Hu Xiaotian, but it was from Xiao Tianmu of Hongliu Village.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Where are the others?"
Murong Feiyan said: "I'm waiting in the carriage outside the door. I don't want to come in."
Hu Xiaotian nodded and walked out. Liang Dazhuang wanted to help him, but Murong Feiyan took the initiative and said, "I'll do it!" She stepped forward and held Hu Xiaotian's arm.
Hu Xiaotian looked at her with a smile and said, "Do you mind using me as a crutch forever?"
"I mind!"
