Juan also looked at the house opposite.
In the dead of night, Xiao Hezi came to the Hou Mansion again according to the same place as last time.
"Why did you come?"
Just after Xiao Hezi landed, a voice came from behind, making Xiao Hezi almost lose his balance and fall to the ground.
"Hey, you kid, do you know that scaring people can scare them to death!"
Xiao Hezi looked behind him warily and found Huan standing behind him. He looked around angrily and saw that there was no one else. He lowered his voice and complained to him.
"Stop talking nonsense, adults have been waiting!"
Juan just looked at Xiao Hezi coldly and led him towards the lobby while talking.
"How rude!"
Xiao Hezi snorted coldly and followed quickly.
"Master Hu, why did you call me here?"
When Xiao Hezi saw Hu Yunqing waiting for him, he stood respectfully and asked.
"You can set off back to Beijing tomorrow."
"Okay, huh? But His Majesty asked me to check the security situation of Shanhaiguan on his behalf."
Hearing that Hu Yunqing asked him to leave Shanhaiguan, Xiao Hezi was a little confused. Didn't he just come here? He hadn't seen Yuan Chonghuan's army yet, so he couldn't complete the task assigned by His Majesty.
"You will only get in the way if you continue to stay here. Don't worry, Your Majesty. I am in Shanhaiguan, and the slave builders will never be able to get in!"
Hu Yunqing didn't want to tell Xiao Hezi too much about the specific things. After all, the fewer people knew about it, the better.
"Understood, I will set off tomorrow. Does Mr. Hu want me to bring back any news again?"
Xiao Hezi looked at Hu Yunqing. Although he didn't know what Hu Yunqing was doing, he could feel that it was definitely a big deal. He remembered what Hu Yunqing had said before, that the slave builders would not break the rules for more than ten years.
He Zi can still distinguish clearly between right and wrong.
"It just so happens that I will give this letter to the female family member in my house for me. She will definitely feel very uncomfortable when I am not in the city."
Hu Yunqing thought of Zhao Shuangshuang in his mind. Although he didn't know what the other party was doing now, he must have felt bad. In fact, Shanhaiguan was a bit far away from the capital, and it would be too wasteful to send a letter back and forth.
It just so happened that this time Xiao Hezi returned to Beijing, and he could take the letter he had already written back with him.
"Don't worry, Mr. Hu. Your Majesty has already promised that he will ensure the safety of the Hu Mansion. If anyone dares to touch Mr. Hu's family, I will be the first to be unhappy."
Looking at the letter Hu Yunqing handed him, he remembered what happened to the prince before. Knowing that Hu Yunqing was worried now, he quickly reassured him.
Xiao Hezi knew that what Hu Yunqing did this time was a big deal. If this matter came to pass, then Hu Yunqing would definitely be the siege of the Ming Dynasty, and it would not be impossible to be named a king with a different surname in the future.
With such big legs in front of him, what else could Xiao Hezi do without hugging them tightly?
"Well, I never treat the people who do things for me badly. If you take these banknotes, you can treat them as rewards."
Hu Yunqing took out some banknotes and asked Huan to hand them to Xiao Hezi's hand.
"Sir, how can this be done! It is my duty, little Hezi, to do these things."
Looking at the banknotes that Juan brought over, Xiao Hezi also knew that Hu Yunqing was not short of money, but when he saw a few thousand taels of banknotes given to him, Xiao Hezi was at a loss for a moment, but then he thought about it and knelt down quickly and said.
"Take what is given to you. If something goes wrong with my family, this money will be your coffin gold!"
Of course Hu Yunqing would not give out thousands of taels of silver in vain. He earned his own money through hard work.
"This this."
After hearing what Hu Yunqing said, Xiao Hezi's face turned pale with fright. He originally wanted to leave a good impression, but he didn't expect Hu Yunqing to take it seriously. Looking at the stack of banknotes, Xiao Hezi didn't know whether to accept it or not.
"Just take it, there's so much nonsense!"
Seeing that Xiao Hezi was still hesitating, Juan glanced at Hu Yunqing, directly stuffed the banknote into the latter's arms and said.
"Thank you, sir."
Seeing Huan's rude look, Xiao Hezi didn't know what to say. He looked down at the bulging bag in his arms and quickly bowed to Hu Yunqing.
"Okay, let's go."
.......
The next day, Hu Yunqing stood at the door of the house, watching Xiao Hezi pack up and leave.
The officials who came to see him off saw the looks in Xiao Hezi's and Hu Yunqing's eyes and realized that they were not dealing with each other.
But what they don't know is that these are just what Hu Yunqing wants them to see.
Just when Yuan Chonghuan was following He Gong's carriage to the city gate, Huan Lai found Yuan Chonghuan.
"Our adults would like to see the general come over."
Juan came to Yuan Chonghuan's side and whispered.
"Sir, are you looking for me? I will go to the house immediately after sending Eunuch He to the city gate."
Yuan Chonghuan didn't understand why Dingbei Hou was looking for him. He looked at the carriage of Mr. He next to him and asked if he was here to see him off. .
But he had already appeared. If he left halfway, it might make Eunuch He feel dissatisfied, so he planned to send Eunuch He off first.
"Then I will go back and report to your lord, and please general not to waste any time."
After looking at the carriage next to him, he understood Yuan Chonghuan's situation, left a few words and returned to the house.
After two sticks of incense, Yuan Chonghuan rode to the Dingbei Hou Mansion.
Juan, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, saw Yuan Chonghuan coming and quickly brought him into the house. He arrived in front of Hu Yunqing in the backyard.
"Sir, are you looking for me?"
Yuan Chonghuan came over in a hurry and didn't stop for a moment. Seeing Hu Yunqing watering the flowers, he hurriedly stepped forward and said.
"Well, is the eunuch gone?"
When Hu Yunqing saw that Yuan Chonghuan was coming, he quickly sat on the stone bench and looked at Yuan Chonghuan in front of him and asked.
"Already sent out of Shanhaiguan"
Hearing Hu Yunqing's address to Eunuch He, Yuan Chonghuan couldn't help but swallowed, and he also knew that Hu Yunqing had some conflicts with Eunuch He.
"I heard that you opened a road in Shanhaiguan and could smuggle some things out, right?"
Hu Yunqing's eyes were spread throughout Shanhaiguan, including the military camp. Hu Yunqing was aware of every slightest disturbance in the military camp.
"Sir, Yuan Chonghuan deserves death. Please spare me this time. I won't dare to do it next time."
I heard Hu Yunqing mentioned smuggling, which was punishable by death in the Ming Dynasty Laws, and he was also the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan.
"Who said I was going to kill you?"
Seeing Yuan Chonghuan kneeling on the ground, Hu Yunqing was a little surprised. He hadn't said how to deal with it yet. He asked Yuan Chonghuan on the ground in confusion.
"Sir, you won't kill me?"
Yuan Chonghuan also understood Hu Yunqing's temper, and he was a person who could not hold a grain of sand in his eyes. He did not expect that he would not kill him this time. He raised his head and looked at Hu Yunqing with a surprised look on his face.
"Hurry up. You are now the commander of an army. You kneel down at every turn. This shows how dignified you are to your soldiers."
