Chapter 78
A group of people rushed up and He Pu was quickly carried down.
Xiao Hu was furious and came to Xiao Yuandu, raising his hands high——
Xiao Yuandu sneered and looked at him without saying a word. He did not dodge, nor did he loosen the hand holding the knife.
Xiao Hu's raised hand failed to strike him down, so she pointed at him and cursed several times.
"The competition is over, until the point is reached, you actually want to put people to death?"
He turned around and apologized to He Shen, the head of the He family.
No one else could be worthy of him. But the He family has a weight that none of the other clans combined can match.
This also talks about Xiao Hu’s family history——
When Xiao Hu was young, he was very public-spirited and would generously lend a helping hand to others when they were in need. He was famous in his hometown for this.
After becoming a county official, although his authority was not great, he was still able to call the shots in Jiyuan County at that time.
He has a heroic character and loves to give away money and charity. He can make some money wherever he goes. He is quite able to eat well and has a wide range of friends.
Regardless of whether he is a wealthy family, a knight errant or a green forest hero, they are all willing to deal with him, and there are many brothers in the rivers and lakes who are willing to sacrifice their lives for him.
Among them was He Zao, the former head of the He family and He Shen's brother.
The He family is the leading clan in Jiyuan, and He Zao has become the leader of the clan at a young age.
It would be fine if it was a time of peace, but it happened that the barbarians invaded.
Qi, Bin, and Chongzhou were the first to bear the brunt. At that time, the imperial court had nothing to do but the wealthy families in the north had to unite to defend against the enemy.
How could the stragglers who had gathered in a hurry be a match for the Hulu cavalry? The civilians of Beijun were thrown into dire straits and heat. They lingered and waited for reinforcements from the imperial court, but what they waited for was the news of the Yan family's southward journey.
Despair makes people lose their fighting spirit and also makes some people more sober.
He Zao was a weak Confucian scholar who was proficient in the Four Books and Five Classics, but he did not know how to preserve his clan in a war.
Xiao Hu realized that the imperial court was unreliable when the war broke out, so he simply gave up his official position, gathered various heroes, and raised an army in the name of expelling the captives. He returned to his hometown and recruited soldiers everywhere.
He Zao had already noticed that Xiao Hu was an extraordinary person.
Seeing that the northern states fell one after another, the rich and wealthy families were arbitrarily killed and plundered, the children, wives and concubines were all taken into enemy camps, and the common people were reduced to slaves, he gathered his clan members together and made a decision after some deliberation - to recommend Xiao Hu as the
Mainly foreigners, leading the He clan to resist foreign aggression.
For Xiao Hu, this is like a pie falling from the sky.
Although he led the government officials and a group of Cao Mang brothers to take the lead in raising the banner, there was no stronghold yet. He Zao was willing to bring the whole clan to join him, so he had the base and the strength.
Facts have proved that this is indeed a good start.
The largest clan in Jiyuan all defected to Xiao Hu, and other families followed suit. Xiao Hu's power soon expanded to Guangping County.
The governor of Guangping County had heard of Xiao Hu's name and admired him very much. In addition, the royal family moved south, the officials in the county were panicked and had no master, so they simply gave way to the county... Whether they were officials, soldiers, civilians or thieves, more and more people
Many people came to rely on him.
In this way, Xiao Hu accumulated enough wealth in a short period of time.
The next step is to gather together in the countryside, secure the rocks, and each side of the dock wall to defend themselves.
With such great power and majesty, both Beiliang and Yanshi are deeply afraid of him.
Tracing back to the origin, He should be the first to make the contribution.
Xiao Hu once made a blood alliance with He Zao, agreeing that the two surnames Xiao He would share weal and woe and would never be at odds with each other.
He did what he said. Even though he returned to the imperial court and became the governor of Chongzhou, and He Zao had died of illness a few years ago, he still treated the He family as honored guests.
Now that Xiao Yuandu beat He Shen's beloved son to serious injury, Xiao Hu did not make any excuses and apologized first.
Although He Shen felt sorry for his eldest son, he also knew that it was the eldest son who made the first move.
It was unreasonable to begin with, and Xiao Hu had given her enough face to not pursue it further.
He forced a smile and said, "It's okay, you're a young man! When you are young, you are full of energy, so accidental injuries are normal."
Xiao Hu waved his hand: "This scoundrel has repeatedly gotten into trouble, and his actions are not serious. How can he have a long memory if he doesn't teach him a lesson?"
After saying this, he called two soldiers, who looked like they were scolding them again.
Mrs. Bian tugged at Jiang Fusang's sleeve and whispered, "Brother-in-law, my husband's pleas are useless. You are the only one left at this time."
She was a newlywed given by the emperor himself. When she asked for mercy, whether it was Xiao Hu or He Shen, they had to at least give her some face.
Jiang Fusang subconsciously wanted to refuse. She was eager for Xiao Yuandu to be punished.
After pondering everyone's thoughts, he finally stepped forward, lined up with Xiao Yuandu, and blessed Xiao Hu.
"My lord, please calm down. It's really the daughter-in-law's fault. The daughter-in-law had something to ask her husband to take care of, so he left in a hurry. Otherwise, if several young masters invited him to compete, wouldn't he be unreasonable? My lord,
If there is any blame, it should be the son-in-law who is to blame. The son-in-law accepts the punishment voluntarily and will make amends with Mr. He when he wakes up."
The female family members headed by Mrs. Tong and Mrs. Min all laughed and smoothed things over after hearing this: "I was in a hurry to run errands for the bride! No wonder I got angry when I was blocked."
Under this situation, He Shen had no choice but to speak again: "It's excusable. The Fifth Young Master must have done it unintentionally, so I won't pursue it any further."
Xiao Hu looked slightly relieved and said helplessly: "In that case, let him be spared this time."
Then he glared at Xiao Yuandu: "This time it's for the bride's sake. If I do it next time, I won't break your legs!"
Xiao Yuandu frowned and looked at Jiang Fusang. Why did this Jiang girl come out to do this? Who cares about his intercession?
Jiang Fusang didn't want to start a fight with him in front of others, so he got ahead of him, covered his lips, stared at his right arm and exclaimed.
"My husband is also injured? The wound is still bleeding. Let me take my husband to apply medicine."
Xiao Hu nodded: "Okay, I'll take the medicine and you two will go back home together."
After Jiang Fusang saluted, he paused and put his hand on Xiao Yuandu's arm.
Xiao Yuandu wanted to wave it away, but Jiang Fusang increased his strength and said in a voice that only he could hear: "It's just a medicine. Are you afraid that I won't succeed if I take you?"
Xiao Yuandu's face changed instantly.
After a long while, four words came out from between his teeth: "Shameless."
Jiang Fusang's smile did not change: "My husband has given me too much praise."
"..."
When he arrived at the designated yurt, Jiang Fusang immediately let go of his hand.
Xiao Yuandu shook his right arm. The pain of the wound was bearable, but the place where she held it felt like a snake crawling, making people tremble inexplicably.
Xiu Tu came back on his heels and felt that the atmosphere was strange. He looked at the two people who were ten steps away, left the medicine and ran away.
Of course Jiang Fusang didn't want to serve him, so he still asked politely: "Do you want me to give you some medicine?"
Xiao Yuandu interrupted with a stinky face: "No need."
I really don’t understand how this girl can have such a thick skin and still act like this after being exposed.
Jiang Fusang nodded and stopped talking.
Even though I mentioned applying medicine, I couldn't get out of the yurt if the medicine wasn't good.
Xiao Yuandu didn't want to stay with Jiang Nu for a moment, so he sat behind the case without even taking off his robe. He uncorked the bottle, sprinkled the powder on the wound, and wrapped it in a few rounds of gauze.
Then without even saying hello, he stood up and walked out.
Jiang Fusang called him to stop.
Xiao Yuandu wanted to pretend not to hear.
Jiang Fusang called Husband again.
Xiao Yuandu stopped reluctantly and asked in an extremely impatient tone: "What's the matter?"
Jiang Fusang stepped forward, untied the gauze for him, re-bandaged it, and tied it neatly and neatly.
Xiao Yuandu had a knot on his eyebrows.
He looked at Jiang Fusang, and Jiang Fusang looked at him.
"Your Majesty's orders must not be violated." She said with a gentle smile, "That's why it looks like the medicine I gave to my husband."
