Chapter 21 Hero saves the beauty

It was already dark when the banquet was over, and Mr. Huan personally carried a lamp to send Cao Cao and Xia Houyuan outside the gate of the manor, and said, "Next time, you must come with Mr. Xiahou Yuan!" "Okay! Don't worry, I'll take care of this. The meat in the house is really delicious. From now on, you'll have to trouble yourself." Xia Houyuan muttered a few words and then rode on his horse, while Cao Cao said nothing. Say goodbye to Zhou Jing. The gloomy country roads are very difficult to navigate, but fortunately Xia Houyuan was born and raised in this place and has long been familiar with it, even with his eyes closed, he can feel home.While leading the way, he hummed a mess of little tunes, and looked back at Cao Cao who was silent on the horse from time to time.

"I said you are a very good person because you care too much about your wife! Why do you have a bitter face?" "Wonderful talent! Where do you think such a refined kabuki came from in this village?" "For this!" Xia Houyuan laughed "puchi", "Do you care about her?" "Yes." Cao Cao replied shyly. "real?" "Ok." "Let's go!" Xia Houyuan turned his horse's head and called. "what?" "Isn't it enough to grab it?" "How can this be done? Is there no king's law?"

"My young master! Do you still think that this place is under the feet of the emperor you live in? It's a fart to steal a kabuki to go home and make rice? Even if it's wrong, it's just a romantic idea! Who told you to like her?" What about it?" Xia Houyuan didn't care. "That won't work! Is it something I wait for others to do to rob people?" Cao Cao grabbed his bridle, "Besides, I am now..." "I've been recommended by the county, and I'm going to be Xiaolian Gong! So you can't poke a hornet's nest at this juncture, right?" Xia Houyuan grinned, "Yes! Listen to you, and just follow you. Anyway, don't Feel bad and regret it! How about I think about this matter for you, and if I meet her in the future, I will ask for a marriage for you. Can't we get it back through three media and six certificates? It's a pity that even this girl's name is unknown. I don’t know, how can I ask for this relative? At that time, I will say that Xiaolian Gong Cao Mengde has fallen in love with you, so you can be my sister-in-law quickly! I’m afraid he won’t like it..."

Cao Cao listened to his constant sarcasm, and quickly waved his hands and said, "Okay! Big eater! It's already so late, let's go!" "Why...don't ask for a kiss...go home? You have to order!" Xia Houyuan made a strange joke for a while, then dialed back the horse to lead the way, but after walking a few steps, he began to hum a nonsensical tune . "I'm convinced of you! Stop singing, and you will bring wolves in the wilderness again." "Hey! Can't even sing?" "You sing badly." "I was afraid that you would get bored and panicked. I was thinking about a good song for you, so I specially sang a few lines for you. You also said that eating sweet, crunchy, and three-way things is good. I knew I wouldn't come with you!"

"Are you unreasonable? You dragged me here by force!" "I can see that little girl if I don't bring you here, just now you..." The two were bickering, when they suddenly heard a shout coming from a distance behind, and vaguely saw a few torches flickering. "Let's go! Take a look!" Xia Houyuan hurried back without waiting for Cao Cao to say anything.Cao Cao followed and thought: Could it be that this place is not clean and there are bandits?Fortunately, Xia Houyuan is good at martial arts, and I can do it twice, so why not fight them while enjoying the wine?Even if it is not possible to rely on these two good horses, there will be no mistakes.

As the fire gradually approached, the two reined in their horses and watched carefully: they saw a group of servant-like people holding sticks and torches around a donkey cart and shouting and cursing. Don't dare to say anything. "Little girl! Come out quickly! Don't be so fucking shameless!" A middle-aged man in black shouted in a hoarse voice.Cao Cao has always been sharp-eyed, so he recognized the big housekeeper of the Huan Mansion at that time. "Little girl! Do you think you can escape from my master? I think highly of you, sir. You really think of yourself as a daughter? If you don't get out, I will tear your skin! There is a mouth under the nose! You don't even scan (inquire) and scan, no one in this area of ​​tens of miles knows about my master's methods..." The butler raised his beard and yelled obscene words, which was the part of serving people at the banquet just now. The respectful and careful energy is gone, "You fucking don't come out yet? Damn bitch, brothers give it to me! Take it back and let's have fun together!"

A few rascals got orders, rushed up to lift the curtain of the car to fetch someone, but just as soon as they moved their hands, a child popped out from inside—it was the same child who was playing the flute for the kabuki just now. The child couldn't help but grab a scoundrel's arm and bite hard.The scoundrel was in so much pain that he howled like a wolf, and he slapped Tong'er back.Before Tong'er could stand up, the housekeeper grabbed her by the neck. "A Bing!" The curtain of the car was lifted again, and there was indeed that charming kabuki inside: "You rascal! Let my brother go!" Before he could finish his sentence, he was stopped by two rascals.

"It's okay to let him go, unless you treat the uncle to the United States..." "Stop!" Cao Cao burst into anger from nowhere, and immediately stopped the group of people. This group of guys only wanted to rob people, and when they heard the shouts, they realized that there were two more people behind them: "Who are you? You dare to interfere with my good business, you are impatient... Oh! It's the two young masters!" How did you startle me? What did you say? Damn me! Damn!" The butler was about to show off when he recognized them and quickly changed his face.

"Why rob someone?" Cao Cao jumped off his horse. "Mr. Cao doesn't know, we are not robbing people! This little whore was specially hired by me to sing songs for the young masters to relieve boredom. Who would want to give the money after singing the song and steal things from the mansion before they leave? It's not bad! Why don't I hurry up and lead people to chase me!" "You fucking nonsense!" The Tong'er struggled to break away from the butler's hand and cursed: "You two big brothers, don't listen to this old dog farting! This old bastard sees that my sister is beautiful and wants to take it back to be a concubine... You A rotten piece of shit that a dog doesn't step on, and you don't urinate to take pictures of your turtle appearance-you still miss my sister? Toad, you should give up this heart! Go back and find a cesspit and plunge into it, and you will be born in the next life. talk later!"

"Haha!" Xia Houyuan laughed out loud when he heard the boy's swearing, and got off the horse, "You are not bad at playing the flute, boy, and you can swear so many tricks, I admire you!" "Stop messing around!" Cao Cao reprimanded them, and then asked, "Housekeeper! You said they stole something from the house. What was that thing? Where is it now? Who saw it when they stole it?" "This, this..." The housekeeper rolled his eyes, "Mr. Cao, you don't have to worry about things here. We will send them to the government tomorrow after we take them. The county magistrate is the master. The two sons Go back early and rest."

"No!" Cao Cao hadn't opened his mouth yet, when the Tong'er saw someone helping, he jumped up and down and cursed again, "Don't listen to him! This old bastard still doesn't give up, thinking that the two young masters are fooled. Can't you? You old bastard have always relied on the power of your master to cock your tail, holding your master's chapped, cracked, and cracked feet that haven't been washed for half a year as treasures, and how many unrighteous things you have done. ? Tomorrow, you will deal with the government, and you can be convicted even if you are innocent. Do you think I don’t know, young master? You old bastard who has lost his waist and hips!" "Little bastard!" The butler was furious after being scolded by him, and he stepped forward and opened his mouth again. "You still dare to bully people!" Xia Houyuan felt very appetizing after hearing the scolding from the boy, but seeing the housekeeper make a move again now, how can he be tolerated?With one stride up, it's like a horsewhip!The butler screamed "Oh my god!", rolled over, covered his bloody face, and yelled like a pig: "Beat me! Are you all fucking dead! Who cares? Let's do it!" Xia Houyuan saw that he could not suppress the fire when he shouted, so he swung the whip in his hand so loudly that he drove the steward to whip it violently. After such a commotion, the servants of Huan's family were also anxious, and shouted at a dozen people with sticks, and beat Xia Houyuan around without saying anything.Cao Cao was also afraid that Xia Houyuan would suffer, so he hurriedly picked up a wooden stick in his hand, but he stretched out his hand no matter what.This Xia Houyuan has practiced martial arts with his elder brother Xiahou Dun since he was a child, and his skills are number one in this area; these evil slaves bully the common people with style, how does Xia Houyuan pay attention to the three-legged cat's method?He beat more and more vigorously, jumping vertically and horizontally, an ordinary horsewhip danced like a dragon, flickering in a trance, appearing and disappearing, and the whip was everywhere.In the blink of an eye, these servants threw away their sticks and torches, and the housekeeper who was seriously injured on the ground escaped faster than rabbits one by one.Even the driver of the cart was whipped twice for no reason, and was so frightened that he left the donkey cart and gave up. Seeing that the helpers had all run away, the housekeeper struggled to get up and tried to run away, but the boy caught up with him and hugged him, and slapped him on the thigh. "My god!" He staggered and fell to the ground in pain. "Good boy! Your mouth is really unambiguous. I counted it for you. You can play the flute, swear, and bite. You have good teeth!" Xia Houyuan teased, shaking Khan. "That's right! I not only bite people, but also dogs, his bullying watchdog!" Cao Cao's heart is clear: Miaocai is too reckless!These dozens of whips went down, the anger was released, and the people were saved, but so many people in the Huan family were injured, and the housekeeper was beaten like a blood gourd. Thinking of this, he hurried forward to help the housekeeper of the Huan Mansion to inquire about his injuries. Unexpectedly, the housekeeper felt resentful after being beaten severely, and cursed: "You bastards, you really have no law! You dare to beat people! You don't even scan your ears. Do you think our Huan family is easy to bully? Our young nephew is also a prominent figure in the county, so you can't bear to go around! See whose arms are thick! Son of a bitch..." Xia Houyuan stepped forward and knocked him to the ground again.At first Cao Cao scolded Xia Houyuan to stop, but later he heard the housekeeper scold him: "Good fight! What a bandit embryo! Just because you have a family of eunuchs, you don't know what to do! The ancestors didn't accumulate virtue to raise eunuchs who have lost their sons and grandchildren. They have long heads and no long tails." He recognized the old eunuch as his father and dared to ask his son to come out to commit murder, he is really a rat raised by a bunch of old weasels..." Cao Cao felt that it was very offensive when he heard this, and suppressed his anger to dissuade him. Unexpectedly, the butler had been beaten mad, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Little weasel, don't pretend to be a good person! Your grandfather is an eunuch, and your father doesn't know where he came from!" Cao Mengde's heart trembled: Good!Everyone in the world thinks that my father and son are bastards!He pushed the butler smoothly, swung the stick in his right hand and smashed it down towards the butler with all his strength. In an instant, it was as if ten thousand peach blossoms bloomed, beating the butler until his head was crushed and his brains burst out! "It's terrible! You've killed someone!" The kabuki screamed in fright. "Don't shout!" Cao Cao covered her mouth, "It's a good death! It's cleaner to kill!" When he said this, there was a chill in his eyes, and his face was almost distorted. "What should I do?" The kabuki cried anxiously, "What can I do if I kill someone!" "If you die, you die!" The Tong'er didn't care, "What's the big deal! It's really impossible for us to go up the mountain to be the king, keep this elder brother as the head of the village, and my sister will be his mother with him, who dares to do anything to us ?” "What do you know? Stop messing around! Our sisters and brothers are so miserable..." Cao Cao took a few breaths before he regained his composure: It is nothing to kill a scoundrel on weekdays, but now that he has been promoted as Xiaolian, would it be a joke if he was stabbed in Beijing?The fame of this half life is gone!Why did you beat him to death on impulse just now... "Let's go!" Xia Houyuan calmed down, "Go back and think of a way, staying here will be a crime!" "Yes! There is another way. It will take some time for the Huan Mansion to come out to find someone. Don't we just knock on the door of our two families?" Cao Cao turned his head, "But what about their siblings?" Under the moonlight, the kabuki was crying with her younger brother in her arms.At this moment, she had already washed off the attire she wore when she sang, and she was wearing simple clothes. Her slender figure, beautiful face and sparkling tears made her look even more charming.Seeing Cao Cao's questioning, she wiped away her tears and said, "Although I didn't kill this person, it happened because of me... I won't leave! Even if my daughter is taken to the government, she must tell the truth and serve the son. testify!" Seeing her say that, Cao Cao felt admiration in his heart. He grabbed her by the shoulder and asked, "What's your name? Where is your home?" "The little girl's surname is Bian. This is my younger brother A Bing. Both my parents died of famine and plague. We have been performing arts outside since we were young. We live wherever we go. I just ask you to take my brother away. , to preserve my father and mother's flesh and blood..." "Come with me!" Cao Cao didn't wait for her to finish, "Take your brother with you!" After saying that, he picked up Miss Bian and put him on the horse. "This……" "I can't go to court now that I have a good reputation, I'll talk about it when I have something to say!" Cao Cao also got on his horse as he said this. "Haha!" Xia Houyuan burst out laughing, "Brother Meng De! You are not stealing people, you are also stealing people!" "It's useless to talk less! You put the body on the cart and give the donkey a knife to make it run out, then spread some soil to cover the blood... Take the child and let's go!" Two horses carried four people and galloped to the Zhuangzi of Xiahou's house, but fortunately no one noticed under the dim moonlight.Xia Houyuan was galloping ahead, and from a long distance away, he saw a person holding a lamp and looking at the door. Taking advantage of the firelight, Xia Houyuan saw this man with short stature, strong and powerful, with piercing eyes, and a long face illuminated by the bright red fire, which made him extremely majestic—is this not his elder brother Xiahou Dun?Hurry up and run forward with two whips. "Where did you two go! You didn't ask the servants to follow you, and you came back so late!" Xiahou Dun said with reproach, "Brother De'er came to look for Meng De! You didn't come sooner... huh?! This child is Who? Who else is there?" Cao Cao and Xia Houyuan hurriedly motioned him to lower his voice, and after they dragged him into the manor, they explained everything that happened earlier. Xiahoudun's expression didn't change when he heard that, but he just shook his head: "If something happens at this time, it will ruin my brother's future." He paced back and forth a few steps, thinking for a long time before saying, "It's useless even if you hide the body. How is it common for a living person to disappear after being beaten? The Huan family ran away with so many slaves, how did the matter end? The fire cannot be contained in the paper, and sooner or later the government will be alarmed to investigate our two families." "Then what should we do?" Xia Houyuan stared at him with two big eyes. "Unless..." Xiahou Dun looked up at his brother, "Unless you surrender!" "I!?" "Yes! Only if you surrender to the crime can you have both! Hearing what you said, you were the first to do it, and those servants were all wounded and run away by you. They were not present. When I heard that someone was killed, I would be the first to think of you." .As long as you surrender to the crime and take the blame on yourself, Mengde will be off the hook." "No!" Cao Cao immediately objected, "I caused the disaster, so I will stop being an official!" "I think this method will work!" Xia Houyuan gritted his teeth, "Isn't it just going to jail! Who would dare to do anything to me like us? As long as Meng De becomes an official, will he still be unable to save me? I want to see the Huan family. How capable I can be, I will go!" "Brother Meng De, don't worry." Xiahou Dun turned his head suddenly, "I'm quite famous in this county, which of them dare to do anything to my brother! I'll take care of them first and then rob them Once you say it, Miao will not suffer." Cao Cao was deeply shocked by the words of the two brothers at this moment, his heart felt hot, and he thought to himself: "Could it be that God sent these two brothers and me?" come out. "Meng De! You have to be prepared. You will go to Beijing in a few months. You have to tell your uncle Cao Chi. Now his son, that is, your cousin Cao Ren has some friends in the county. There are also a few county lieutenants who serve as Shiqian's staff, and let them do some activities. Besides, didn't you get to know Zhou Jing today? If you can ask him to help out, the lawsuit will be settled once it is settled." Xiahou Dun was very thoughtful. "Okay! Leave this to me!" "And this pair of siblings!" Xiahou Dun looked at the Bian siblings, "If Miaocai went to take the blame, it would be bad for the government to find them. There will inevitably be omissions in the compilation of the confession, why not... find a place to hide it! " "I have a solution. My family just bought a piece of wasteland fifty miles east of the county, and built a few huts there. Now that it's warm, I just send them there to settle down. One night is enough." Cao Cao had already planned up. "I think it's okay, but you can't go. Your brother Deer is in the house! You go tell him these things and ask him to take the siblings for you. You have to go home and pretend nothing happened. As long as the Huan family reports to the officials, it is not impossible for the county officials to come to the door overnight. It will be troublesome if you are not at home. After a while, I will ask the family to prepare a car, and De'er will take them there. You go home quickly. If someone If you ask, you just say that we are staying with Liu Deer, so there is nothing wrong with it." After instructing Xiahou Dun, he patted his brother on the shoulder, "Go! I will take you to surrender now!" "This... is a great kindness without words of thanks." Cao Cao bowed deeply, secretly admiring Xiahou Dun's unruffled attitude, "Wonderful talent! I have blood all over my body, we need to change our clothes." "Okay!" Xia Houyuan took off his clothes with a smile, "Brother Mengde! If you hide her, this can be regarded as a treasure in a golden house!" Although the two of them have different shapes, they can barely pull each other's clothes on. superior. After everything was taken care of, Cao De also hurried away with the Bian siblings.When Cao Cao returned home, it was almost time to watch. He first went to Seventh Uncle Cao Yin to say hello, and then specifically reported that his younger brother was staying in Xiahouzhuang, and then walked into his bedroom with heavy steps. The experience of this day is really like a dream!Cao Cao slanted on the couch with his eyes closed, thinking about something: This test should be barely passed.But what's next?You have to be on guard, once the case comes out, let the people in the clan calm down a bit.Cao Hong is the most capable of causing trouble on a daily basis, so he cannot be allowed to go out and stab someone.And the truth of this matter must be kept secret, no one can tell it except Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan and De'er!Food and living for the Bian family sisters will also be troublesome in the future, so De'er can only secretly deliver things to them. Fortunately, the place is remote, few people go there, and the family is not in a hurry to use the land. Cao Cao suddenly thought of Miss Bian, who was really reluctant to leave when she left just now. It is rare to have such a versatile and beautiful girl.It's a pity that he will be going to Beijing in a few days, and he doesn't know when we can meet again... Thinking of this, he couldn't help sighing. "Don't moan all day long!" His wife, Ding Shi, just happened to come in, "If you have something to say, just say it, I know you think I'm ugly. Look at the way you stare at my maid every day, you're gone. You take her into the room as soon as possible, so you can let go of this worry before you leave. I'm not a narrow-minded person, so don't play with your ass face all day long." Cao Cao opened his eyes and looked at his wife's face, he really couldn't laugh or cry...
