Chapter 1851 Stop and fight 9
Whether he was practicing swordplay outside the house or reading with the window open, he could always see the "fat and skinny" female gangster looking at her from afar with no good intentions, which made Mu Hanqing despise and irritate her.
But if you don't practice martial arts, your martial arts will be wasted, and you will develop a habit over the years. Unless you are out on the road, as long as you stop, it is the rule of Zhongyong Hou Mansion to practice martial arts in Yinshi.
He had no choice but to be shameless and get up as soon as Yin Shi arrived. Taking advantage of the fact that it was still dark and there were few people around, he quickly finished practicing and went back to the house.
But I really admire some female bandits. Knowing that he got up early, he got up early to see them.
It's okay today, no one comes to see it. After practice, Mu Hanqing entered the room. Liang Cheng had prepared hot water early and twisted a hot towel and handed it over.
After Mu Hanqing took it and wiped his sweat, he sat at the table and waited for breakfast.
They take good care of him here. When he finishes practicing martial arts, breakfast will be served. About every time he left the house, the watchman went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. By the time he finished, breakfast would be ready.
A bandit in his early twenties came over with a food box on his arm and placed the food in the box on the table. Then he said: "Uncle, please use it slowly."
Mu Hanqing, who was sitting at the table, almost fell off his chair. What to call him? Uncle!
The bandit smiled and looked beaming: "Don't worry, uncle, the military advisor has severely criticized those little prodigals. Whoever dares to covet my uncle again in the future will be severely punished."
Coveted... Mu Hanqing couldn't laugh or cry. Also, how can you care about the husband of the village leader so casually?
"These are cooked by the second aunt who specializes in cooking for the village owner. Only the village owner and her son can eat these in our village. I want to try her craftsmanship. Please use it slowly." After saying this, the bandit went out.
Well, give him the proper treatment as the husband of the village master.
Mu Hanqing felt a little unable to cough or swallow, and his appetite had completely disappeared. But when I saw the white porridge and four side dishes on the table, they were all very appetizing, and my appetite suddenly came back. Picked up the bowl and started eating.
The pickled melons are crisp, sweet and salty; the fermented tofu is full of wine flavor and extremely tender; the stir-fried vegetables are cooked just right; and the sauced duck is very tasty. The dishes and porridge were all prepared by him alone, and he was still unsatisfied after eating them.
The Zhongyong Hou Mansion is also very particular about food, and Mu Hanqing, who is used to eating delicious food, feels that this second aunt's cooking skills are no worse than those of the cooks in the house and famous restaurants and wineries outside.
Then I thought about it, even ordinary well-off people can eat this table, maybe it's just home-cooked food that's good.
At noon, the food delivered was only for him. Liang Cheng's meal was delivered separately, which was just like what he had eaten before. Comparing the two, the ingredients used are similar, but the taste made by this second aunt is much better, and sometimes it is more delicate.
In the afternoon, they actually brought him snacks, saying that the village leader was just like him.
Looking at the hibiscus rolls, lotus meat cakes, and mung bean cakes pressed into flower shapes, it seems that only the palace can have such exquisite pastries.
I picked up a piece of mung bean cake and took a bite. The cotton immediately spread in my mouth. These mung beans are shelled!
Thinking of the weapons in the hands of those bandit leaders before, Mu Hanqing couldn't help but fell into deep thought as to where the Black Tiger Village came from.
Marquis Zhongyong arrived at Black Tiger Village with a hundred people. According to the law, any prince who enters the capital is only allowed to bring no more than a hundred people with him. Although Zhongyonghou was not a relative of the emperor, the late emperor recognized his ancestor's loyalty and illustrious military exploits for generations to come, because he followed the great ancestor to expand the territory, and later defied rebellious ministers and traitors several times to help the emperor successfully ascend the throne. The standard of ceremony for entering Beijing is the same as that of a county king.
In the hall, Mu Hanqing finally met his father Zhongyong Hou. "Father, the child is incompetent." Mu Hanqing lowered his head in shame. Being captured and detained in a bandit's den is not a matter of honoring one's ancestors after all.
Zhongyong Hou, who usually has a bold personality, laughed and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. As the saying goes, no acquaintance can be made without fighting. I was shocked when I just received the news. But I was relieved when I found out that I was rescued by the heroes of Black Tiger Village. By the way. , where is the village leader? I wanted to see you along the way!”
Mu Hanqing opened his mouth slightly. Is his father confused, or is he acting? You are not in a hurry to see your son, but you want to see the female bandit. Do you really think that she is your daughter-in-law?
The military advisor in charge of the reception smiled and said: "The village master has been weak and sick since he was a child. He happened to be a little unwell today. When he feels better someday, he will definitely pay homage to the Marquis in person."
How frail and sickly she is, whipping up her whip and clamoring to take back her territory, she doesn't look like a lady from a wealthy family. It was probably because the ugly daughter-in-law couldn't see her parents-in-law, so she hid, Mu Hanqing complained.
"Oh, my body is weak." Marquis Zhongyong took a sip of tea and said thoughtfully: "When I get to the capital, I will find a few imperial doctors to show the village master a look."
"There was a big change when the village leader was born. His wife died in childbirth. Without her mother, there are only women looking for milk for their children to drink. If not, there are only cattle, sheep, and even rice soup." The military advisor explained: "Fortunately, I found this treasure land and finally stabilized.”
Seeing that Marquis Zhongyong was listening quietly and carefully, while the prince looked impatient, he quickly added: "Now that I have been nursed back to health, except for a slightly weakened constitution, there is no major problem. There is no problem in having children."
Mu Hanqing rolled his eyes, who wants to hear this, and urged: "Dad, when are we leaving?"
Logically speaking, after retrieving the detained son, he should leave as soon as possible, as far away from this bandit's den as possible. But Marquis Zhongyong said: "No hurry, no hurry! It won't be too late to leave after meeting the leader of the village."
Mu Hanqing was stunned. What kind of drug did Black Tiger Village give his father to make the Marquis identify this daughter-in-law?
Seeing that Marquis Zhongyong was like this, the military advisor had no intention of leaving anyone behind: "Your Majesty has issued an order for the prince to enter the capital. It is hard to disobey the emperor's order, so please go ahead. The village master cleaned up and arrived later."
"That's fine." Thinking about having an unmarried girl with you, it would be inappropriate to say this. The Marquis thought for a while and then asked: "When I get to the capital, I must come to see me. Zhongyong Mansion also has a small house in the capital. Although it is not big, it can only aggrieve the village owner."
Mu Hanqing continued to roll his eyes. When he arrived in the capital, he would kill him with one knife. He was also killing a bandit and would not judge the crime. If you don't want to do anything, you can tie him up and send him to the government. This dad is so kind that he actually invited me to be a guest.
"Thank you for your kindness, Lord Marquis." The military advisor thanked him and declined: "After all, I am the leader of the village, so it is not suitable to disturb the family. Besides, if you spend some money to buy a small house, Black Tiger Village still has the money."
It's best if you don't come, because you bandits are wise.
The Marquis nodded: "Remind me of this. When I see you, I will invite the emperor immediately
Your Majesty has decreed a marriage, so that I, Qing'er, can marry the leader of the village as soon as possible. ”
She really asked him to marry her. When he heard this, Mu Hanqing almost fainted. However, I have been practicing martial arts all year round and my body is very good. I can fight tigers without fainting. He could only stare at Mr. Hou in surprise.
Is this really his biological father? It's not like someone is pretending.
