"Why?"

Li Jiancheng shouted in his heart, he was not convinced, he was the prince, he was orthodox! For the position of the crown prince, he has learned every etiquette flawlessly, and every action makes the most picky people unable to find the slightest fault, but why, those people are like moths to a fire, and they have to follow the second brother who can only fight!

As the anger in his heart rose, the movements on his hands couldn't help but get faster and faster, and the slight pain of rubbing his knuckles made Li Jiancheng come back to his senses, looking at Xiao Han who closed his mouth tightly, Li Jiancheng's smile remained unchanged: "Hehe, Xiao Qing's family has just returned from the front line, and they have worked hard, and they are also destined to meet here today, why don't you set up a banquet for you to pick up the wind and wash the dust?" ”

Xiao Han's heart suddenly chuckled, he had been included in the Tiance Mansion two days ago, although his status was remote, but it was like he had already made a big mark on him! And now that the prince has invited him to a banquet, if this reaches the ears of others, what should he think of himself?!

"Eh, that, thank you for the prince's love, but Weichen was accidentally injured outside, plus he still needs to go back to prepare medical tools for front-line soldiers, etc., I really can't get out, I hope the prince will forgive me, forgive me..."

After speaking, Xiao Han bent down again and gave a long salute, and deliberately stretched his neck so that the prince could see the bruise on his neck.

I can't go! If the prince is facing another fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy today, with this old routine of Corporal Lixian, it is estimated that he will be invincible! But Xiao Han is a freak with two lifetimes of experience, and he has long known that this prince who "has the appearance of an emperor" is a villain, how could he go to the banquet!

The prince's movement of turning the wrench suddenly stopped, and his eyes seemed to be cold! However, Xiao Han was looking down and couldn't see it at all, and after a while, the prince had returned to normal, as if the scene just now had never happened at all.

"In this way, it's okay, the military is important, Xiao Qing's family will be busy first, lonely, and I will go to you to drink with you in the future!"

"Prince Xie forgive me, go down, retire first......"

Xiao Han secretly looked at Li Jiancheng, Li Jiancheng couldn't see any expression on his face, and I don't know if he saw his perfunctory, arched his hand at the prince, Xiao Han took a step back and glanced at Xiao Dong on the side, Xiao Dong saw it, and hurriedly came over to salute the prince, and then walked to the other side of the bridge with Xiao Han.

Seeing Xiao Han and his own soldiers leading the horse and disappearing into the shadows at the city gate, the prince's face sank with a brush! A pair of poisonous snake-like eyes looked straight at the place where Xiao Han disappeared and didn't speak, as soon as Yin Nu saw it, he was about to step forward to catch up, the prince snorted coldly, Yin Nu immediately stood still, lowered his hands and lowered his head, and didn't even dare to show his favorite smile!

"The prince is really angry! I don't know who is going to be unlucky! Inu thought to himself.

Who wants to be unlucky, Xiao Han doesn't know, and he doesn't want to know, as long as that person is not him......

After passing the gate of Chang'an, the huge Chang'an City is still like that, and it seems that nothing can change the pace of this giant city.

Passing through the bustling streets, the group blended into the pedestrians, like a drop of water melting into the sea, and disappeared into the crowd in a blink of an eye, until this time, Xiao Han breathed a sigh of relief!

It wasn't the embryo called Yinnu who had just put so much pressure on him, Xiao Han, who had seen the power of the * nuclear bomb, looked at Yinnu, that is, he just looked at the bigger meat shield, but it was His Royal Highness the Prince, who was always smiling, a ruthless man who even killed his own brothers, so that Xiao Han had to fight with twelve points of spirit to deal with it.

Xiao Han didn't know why the prince would target him, although everything he did was useful, it was beneficial to the military camp, and everything seemed to be extremely easy to complete, and there were no particularly impressive big moves at all!

And this His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't seem to be good at marching and fighting, and he has been in the palace all the time, no matter how you think about it, you shouldn't have anything to do with yourself! And speaking of the palace, it seems that last time in the palace, he had already refuted his face, according to this person's heart, how could he come to him again to pretend to talk about the wind?

After thinking about it for a long time, Xiao Han still couldn't figure it out, but he felt that this seemingly calm Chang'an City didn't seem to be calm underneath, shook his head, and didn't think about these troubles for the time being, anyway, there have been a lot of worries recently, and there are more lice and don't bite people!

It's almost home, lead the horse and rush home! Although I have only been away for a few days, the feeling of coming home is always longing...

Walking out of the familiar alley, the small people on both sides were busy hiding to the side, the poor looked at the powerful people, most of them would feel inferior from the bottom of their hearts, and Xiao Han was barely a semi-powerful person now.

didn't say hello to these poor neighbors, it's not that Xiao Han looks down on people, but he doesn't know what to call people at all, it's better to say the wrong thing than to say nothing, anyway, the days are still long, maybe there will always be a day when you get acquainted......

Seeing the arrogant gate of their own house, I haven't seen it for two days, as if the whole has been renovated, and the big copper nails nailed on the vermilion gate are not much, but how to look at it, how beautiful!

Coming here, Xiao Han's mood was inexplicably clear! I was just about to shout at the gate that Lao Tzu was back, but before the words came out, I suddenly saw a few people squatting under the tall courtyard wall, dressed in disheveled clothes, like calling Huazi......

"Who is allowed to ask Hanako to squat at the gate of the Hou Mansion?!" Xiao Han was puzzled, and he didn't care about shouting, and when he looked closely, he suddenly found that the few people squatting at the door seemed to be a little familiar......

Dismounted, walked over with his legs crossed, and the person who was squatting on the ground also heard the noise and slowly raised his head......

"Blacksmith Lao Zhao!"

Xiao Han and the flower child looked at each other, and almost exclaimed!

He never thought that these people were not outsiders, but blacksmith Lao Zhao! Look to the side again, sure enough! Although they all drooped their heads, they had been together for a long time, and Xiao Han saw at a glance that these were also the blacksmiths who had followed him before!

"You guys? How do you squat here? Why don't you go into the house? Xiao Han was so surprised that an ominous feeling slowly rose in his heart.

Lao Zhao looked at Xiao Han, who was extremely surprised, and heard Xiao Han's familiar voice in his ears, a pair of old eyes widened, and a little tear seemed to be swirling inside: "Master Hou, are you back?!" ”

"Master Hou is back?" As soon as the old blacksmith's voice fell, the squatting people suddenly opened their eyes, and when they saw that it was really Xiao Han standing here, a group of people surrounded him, and they were so frightened that Uncle Zi and a few people hurriedly dragged Xiao Han behind him.

"Why? Are you crazy about gain and loss? Uncle Stunned was at the front of Xiao Han, holding a knife and shouting at these people, but it didn't scare the blacksmith, but scared Xiao Han a lot!

But it's no wonder that Uncle Stunned and they reacted so violently, today is really evil, all the way is a confusing situation, and it is not easy to get home, and they can be fenced at the door of their homes! Besides, look at these people, all of them have haggard faces, like outcasts, more like blacksmiths.

"It's okay, it's okay, my family! Get out of the way! ”

Xiao Han struggled to squeeze out of the crowd, pushed Uncle Stunned aside, pointed at Lao Zhao's head and asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you?" Didn't you say that you were going to be a prisoner? What's wrong? Is this being bullied? ”

Xiao Han didn't say that it was okay, as soon as he said it, the old blacksmith's tears flowed, and the young blacksmiths around him cried!

"We can't stop you, Master Hou! I'm embarrassed for you......" The blacksmith Lao Zhao burst into tears, knelt down in front of Xiao Han, took Xiao Han back two steps in shock, and quickly called Uncle Stunned to pick up these people!

The door was so lively, the people in the gatehouse had already recognized that this was the master of the house returning to the house, the door was babbling open, and the people in the house were hula and ran to the door to prepare to greet the owner.

"Get up, Lao Zhao! What are you doing, what do you have to say, come into the house and say! Xiao Han didn't know what had happened, making this old man so sad, did he really shine in the past two days? It's all messy and bad!

The blacksmith Lao Zhao was pulled up by Uncle Zizi, wiped his tears, and saw that the door was crowded with people, and he couldn't speak, so he stood in place blankly.

Xiao Han looked at the old blacksmith, as if he had guessed something in his heart, and nodded at Xiao Dong: "Go home first, and then talk about it when you go home!" ”

"Yes, Master Hou!" Xiaodong nodded smartly, and hurriedly came over to hug Lao Zhao, "Uncle Zhao, there are so many people watching here, if you have anything to say, let's go back and talk about it!" ”

Old Zhao Muran nodded, opened his mouth, and didn't say anything after all.

Walking up the high steps, as soon as Xiao Han entered the door, hey, a large group of people in the front yard, when they saw Xiao Han, the men were blessed, and the women were blessed, and then they all shouted: "Hou Ye went out to fight hard, welcome Hou Ye triumphant!" ”

This is the treatment that only soldiers who have returned from victory can enjoy, and according to the rules, even the parents and relatives of the soldiers must bow and congratulate!

In the Sui and Tang dynasties, people's admiration for the victorious warriors was not just talking, but had already formed their own set of etiquette.

It's a pity, where has Xiao Han seen this battle, he was wondering in his heart what was wrong with the blacksmiths, he was frightened by these people, his head almost died, and it took a long time to remember that there seemed to be such a rule, and quickly returned the salute according to the rules.

"I wish Hou Ye a successful start! Peerless! The people below shouted again!

Xiao Han saluted again......

"Congratulations to ......"

"Enough! Don't bless! What to do, what to do, what to do in these forms! Enough to eat?! ”

"Okay...... Hahahaha......"

The people below laughed when they heard this, and when they saw that Xiao Han's whole beard and full shadow were not injured at all, this heart was finally put down, and it was not like two days ago, when he was always worried and couldn't even eat well.

When did they start to care so much about this young Hou Ye? Maybe even they didn't notice that they and Xiao Han seemed to have a family-like relationship.

Blowing up the people below, watching a yard of people whining everywhere, Xiao Han sighed a little, when did so many people follow him?

When the people dispersed, the fat chef with a smile on his face took Xiao Shiyi Lang and greeted him with a basin of water: "Master Hou, you are back, are you not injured......?"

As soon as Xiao Han finished sighing, he was angry when he saw the fat chef in front of him, and he just knew how to play tricks, but he didn't see me come back? I don't even come to a plate of dumplings when I go home, and I dare to laugh so cheaply here!

Glaring at the fat chef, Xiao Han said angrily: "I was injured by a fart, and I didn't see a few enemies!" That's what drove me back! What are you doing with this water, I'm not thirsty! Light hungry! ”

The fat chef's smiling eyes were about to squeeze together: "Master Hou said that you are laughing, you are coming down from the battlefield, regardless of whether you kill the enemy or not, this is military merit and the glory of our family!" This water is for you to get bad luck, and everyone who comes home from the battlefield must have this process! As for the food, don't worry, the big bones have already been boiled, and they will be served to you in a while, I just saw it, and the soup is boiled to milky white! ”

"Hmph, even if you have a heart, you just said that this water is to go to bad luck?" Xiao Han pointed to the basin of water and asked with a frown.

The fat chef and Xiao Shiyi Lang hurriedly nodded: "Master Hou has just come back from the battlefield, and it is inevitable that he will be stained with unclean things, and this water is to dispel evil spirits!" ”

When Xiao Han heard this, he immediately came to his senses: "Then hurry up, drink or splash, your Hou Ye has been unlucky in the past two days, hurry up and give it to me!" ”

"Okay...... Master Hou, you stand still, I'll do the rest! ”

The fat chef responded with a smile, and hurriedly took a short pine and cypress branch from Xiao Shiyi's hand behind.

While splashing water on Xiao Han's body, he said: "Master Hou, your red star is shining, how can you have bad luck!" It's a joke, don't move yet, there's got to be something behind this......"

"As far as you can speak, I'm a red star, so what are you doing now?"

"Hehe, isn't this a process passed down from the ancestors, even if the emperor drives the expedition in person, he has to do it when he comes back......"

"Gotta get it, it's almost done, make me wet, and I have to talk to Lao Zhao, don't be poor, hurry up and make a few more bowls of noodles, make a little more, toss to death in the past two days!"

"Okay, please~ Xiao Shiyi, don't be stunned, hurry up and knead the dough with me!"

In the end, it is comfortable at home, no matter who it is, it is always comfortable to watch! After scolding the fat chef with a few laughs, Xiao Han felt a lot more relaxed.

Looking up at the only remaining osmanthus tree in the corner of the courtyard, in this gloomy weather, it seems that summer is about to pass, and the cicadas are sparse and no longer so energetic.

"Eventful ......"

Xiao Han sighed in a tone that was extremely inconsistent with his age, and raised his legs and walked towards the living room under the blank gaze of the servants around him.

As early as when Xiao Han accepted the victory and returned to greet him, Xiao Dong had already led a row of down-and-out blacksmiths to the living room, and when Xiao Han came in, the blacksmiths were standing at the door, waiting for him.

Xiao Han raised his legs and came in, glanced at everyone, and said a little self-deprecatingly: "It's only been a few days, why did you come here to get a point?" Sit down, what's the matter, talk slowly. ”

After that, watching the blacksmiths sit down on the chairs on both sides, Xiao Han walked to the main seat, first picked up the kettle on the desk and poured half a pot of water, then he breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Lao Zhao sitting on the head, and asked, "I haven't had time to ask you, what's wrong with you, why do you look so miserable?" Now there are no outsiders here, if you have anything to say, just say it! ”

While speaking, Xiao Han seemed to have a little bit of the momentum of the Hou Ye, at least he didn't want to before, even if he sat in the main seat, he looked like a gangster.

These days, he has become accustomed to the free transformation between the two identities, and when he meets Xue Shu's wise and close to demon cows, Xiao Han naturally becomes a silly and sweet teenager, enjoying all the conveniences brought by his young age with peace of mind.

And in the absence of outsiders, it seems that the experience of the previous life will return to him.
