Zhan Zhumen

Chapter 17 This Full of Hate
On the Double Ninth Festival, the major roads inside and outside the capital are full of vehicles and horses.

Climbing the Chongyang Festival, the whole family travels, some go to Lion Mountain and Qingliang Mountain in the inner city, and some go to Zhongshan Mountain, Guanyin Mountain, Jubao Mountain and Qixia Mountain outside the city.

Officials and eunuchs who did not travel all rushed to Xincheng Hou's Mansion.

Xincheng Hou Di's eldest son's first birthday banquet has been posted to each family early.As Jing Nan's meritorious family, no one will not give face.Today's Xincheng Hou's Mansion is covered in red and colorful, and there are endless cars and horses in front of the mansion.

The housekeeper and his servants lined up on both sides of the mansion gate to welcome the guests into the mansion.Every time important people came, Zhang Fu, Hou of Xincheng, would come to the door to greet them in person.

"Xinchenghou, long time no see, congratulations."

"Marquis Xu, we are all happy together. Please come here in person."

"Hou Mo in Xincheng, don't be polite. If you have wine and meat to eat, you must come here to rejoice."

"Thank you. Please come inside." "Please."

Zhang Fu just stepped into the threshold, and heard the butler sing: "Master Chang is here!" "Uncle Lu is here!"

Zhang Fu smiled and turned around.

He exchanged greetings with Marquis Chang and Uncle Lu at the door, and saw the butler walking towards a carriage to greet him: "Master Mu." Zhang Fu and the others hurriedly looked over.

The carriage carrying the emblem of Xiping Hou Mu's family stopped slowly, and Mu Yan got off the carriage with the guard's hand in his arms. Hearing the other party calling him Mu Xiaohou, his expression was cold.

"Who is this boy?" Seeing that Zhang Fu had already greeted him, all the guests whispered to each other curiously.

"The Mu family?" Which one?Mu family?Mu family?
"Could it be from Xipinghou's family?"

"It's not his family's. There is no second Muhou's mansion in Manjingshi." Everyone suddenly looked at the young man with a stern face.

Those who don't know the inside story quietly inquire, and those who know the situation are willing to spread the word.

The first generation Xiping Hou Muying was adopted by the Taizu as his adopted son at the age of eight and raised at the knees of Empress Xiaocigao. Since 12 years old, he has made great achievements in the Southern and Northern Wars with Emperor Taizu.After the establishment of the Wei Dynasty, he was granted the title of Marquis of Xiping, hereditary.In the early days of the founding of the dynasty, the southwest was unstable, and Mu Ying was trusted by Taizu and guarded Yunnan.

After Mu Ying left, the Hou position passed to the eldest son Mu Chun.Mu Chun has no children, but Mu Yan, the eldest son of his adopted younger brother Mu Sheng.

Unexpectedly, Mu Chun passed away early and the position of marquis did not fall into Mu Yan's hands. The late emperor let his own father Mu Sheng take over the title.

This matter is settled.

Even if my father is willing to let Mu Yan become the prince in a hundred years, he still has to ask Mu Yan's brothers if they agree.

Tut tut.This identity is embarrassing.

Mu Yan kept a straight face, ignoring the eyes of those around him who were looking at him, probing or sympathizing, and greeted Zhang Fu calmly.

Zhang Fu nodded to him with a smile: "Please come to the residence of the young master!"

Mu Yan made a bow to him: "Master Hou can just call the boy Mu Yan."

Zhang Fu paused, then smiled: "Mr. Mu, please come inside."

"Please."

Just as a group of guests were about to enter the door, the second steward of Zhang's mansion led a group of servants to bring out dozens of baskets of heavy copper coins.Everyone stopped and planned to watch the excitement at the door.

In front of the gate of the Hou Mansion, the common people, children, and beggars who had been informed early occupied the positions far away.At this meeting, the copper coins were finally brought out, and they rushed to the front of the mansion with a clatter.

Yang Fu and Huo Xi were also pushed forward by the crowd.

Yang Fu held her hand tightly to protect her.Huo Xi, on the other hand, was dumbfounded from the moment Zhang Fu came out, his eyes froze.This will be jostled and followed completely unconsciously.

The nanny at the gate of Hou's mansion also carried out today's birthday man, who was picked up by Zhang Fu.

Seeing the excitement in front of the door, the child danced and danced, causing Zhang Fu to smile and tease him.

This scene deeply hurt Huo Xi's eyes.

A burst of copper coins rained down, "Accept the happy money, see you happy! Happy with the young master!"

Huo Xi didn't reach out her hand, but just stared blankly. The more happy Zhang Fu smiled, the more her heart ached.

"Wow, there are so many! Xi'er, pick them up quickly!" Yang Fu squatted on the ground and picked them up happily without raising his head.

Huo Xi, however, remained motionless like a puppet whose soul had been emptied.

A few copper coins were thrown at her and scattered on her body, and one copper coin was slapped directly on her forehead, causing severe pain.But far less than the pain in my heart.

She looked at Zhang Fu with hatred in her eyes.

Zhang Fu seemed to have a sense, and looked towards her.

Huo Xi hurriedly squatted down and hid himself in the crowd, pretending to pick up the copper coins on the ground.

A group of poor boys were robbing the copper coins, and the kid in Zhang Fu's arms laughed happily, so Zhang Fu turned his eyes back to his son, and led all the guests to the mansion while teasing him.

But Mu Yan stared in Huo Xi's direction, cast a vague glance at Li who was behind him, and Li nodded at him.

Mu Yan followed the guests into the Hou Mansion.

After more than a dozen baskets of copper coins were rained down, there was a lot of noise, and then it returned to calm.

Yang Fu used the hem of his clothes to pocket a large bag of copper coins, and he was very happy: "Xi'er, look quickly, uncle picked up so much, there must be dozens of coins!"

Be darling, big families really don't take money as money, a dozen baskets, how much is it worth!The ones picked up today are harder than they are moving goods on the pier, and they may not be able to earn so much money in ten days!
Yang Fu happily fiddled with the copper plate in his skirt, only to find that the sound of the copper plate sounded particularly pleasing to the ear.

Huo Xi stared at the gate of Hou Mansion bitterly until Zhang Fu's figure could no longer be seen.Turning around and seeing Yang Fu fiddling with the copper plate in his lapel, he just felt ironic, so he raised his hand and slapped it bitterly.

The copper coins fell all over the place.

"Xi'er!" Yang Fu was stunned.

The copper plate fell to the ground, and immediately attracted a bunch of children and beggars to rush to pick it up.

"Mine, don't pick it up!"

Yang Fu shouted, squatting down to pick it up.After only picking up a dozen or so pieces, Huo Xi pulled them up vigorously.

Being dragged by Huo Xi and staggering a few steps, Yang Fu raised his eyes to look at her with a puzzled face.

Seeing that Yang Fu was still tightly clutching a dozen or so copper coins, Huo Xi was angry and hated, and patted them with his hand, crying: "Throw it away!"

Yang Fu was reluctant.Didn't Xier herself say that she would come to join in the fun?
"Throw it away! Otherwise, I won't recognize you as uncle in the future!" Huo Xi yelled at Yang Fu, his eyes were red, and his small body trembled.

Yang Fu was so frightened that he threw away the copper plate in his hand, and looked at Huo Xi's angry little face, a little startled.

"I, I threw it away." He still gestured to Huo Xi with his empty palm.Don't deny me this uncle.

Seeing Xi'er gasping for breath, her face flushed red, she was quite frightened.It took a long while before he stammered and asked, "Xi'er, what's wrong with you?"

"Remember, that family is my enemy and your enemy from now on! We don't care about his things!"

"Oh, good. We won't sell anything to them in the future, and we will walk around his family when we see them." Yang Fu hastily expressed his opinion.

Huo Xi still couldn't explain her hatred.

Her last hope was severely shattered by Zhang Fu's happy face as he teased Zhang Xie.She shouldn't have hoped for him.

How could he laugh when his mother's body was still cold!His younger brother died, and she died too, how could he still laugh!
In those few years, he held her, coaxed her, taught her to read, called her babe, fed her, coaxed her to be a good babe...has he forgotten?

Huo Xi strode ahead, tears splashed in his eyes, and he wiped them away with his hand bitterly.

Her face was smeared black and white.

Yang Fu followed her, staring blankly at her weeping, frightened and frightened, wanting to speak but not daring.He only protected her all the way out of the city.

On the other side, Mu Yan was sitting in the crowd, being scrutinized from time to time, the little duke heard it in his ears, and it was extremely harsh.

Without eating a bite, he turned and went back home.
