Farmer of Shu Han Chapter 1115

Chapter 1115 Heartbreak

Probably today is really a good day.

Not only did Sima Shi get married, but Xia Houzhu also held a small banquet at his mansion.

Although he was the only one at the banquet and no one else drank with him, this did not prevent him from drinking and enjoying himself.

It doesn't matter if there are no guests, but there are beautiful women in the house to accompany you.

But seeing silk and bamboo fluttering ears, light gauze flying, a dozen or so kabuki are dancing.

Under the iridescent satin ribbon, from time to time, the bare white thighs are faintly exposed, like a flower with a watery bottom, or a stamen in a petal.

Every kabuki looked charmingly at Xia Houmao who was sitting in the main seat with a charming smile.

Xia Houmao narrowed his eyes and shook his head, not sure if he was drunk or seductive.

When he was guarding Chang'an, he kept many concubines in his mansion.

Princess Qinghe was so jealous because of this that she united with Xia Houmao's brothers to frame Xiahoumao.

Although Xia Houmao escaped by chance, he also had a complete falling out with Princess Qinghe.

Although the two are called husband and wife now, they are actually never in contact with each other.

After the two separated, Princess Qinghe imitated her example and began raising noodles.

And Xia Houzhu was also happy that no one would disturb him to keep his family skills, and he intensified his efforts to cultivate his hobbies.

At this time, I saw a servant trotting up and reported to Xia Houmao, saying that Xiahouwei was visiting.

Xia Houwei, who seemed to be half-drunk, had surprise on his face when he heard it. He immediately got up and went to greet Xia Houwei in person:

"I was wondering where to find someone to have fun with me, but I didn't expect you to come here, could it be that I heard the sound of singing and dancing from outside?"

While laughing, he signaled the maid to pour wine for Xia Houwei.

Xia Houwei didn't raise his glass, but instead glanced at the housewife who was still dancing below.

Xia Houzhen felt a little bored when he saw it, but finally waved his hand.

After all the dancers and maikos had retired, Xia Houmao toasted to drink alone.

Wrinkled his nose, brows, eyes, and then let go, smashed his mouth, let out a soft "ah" sound of satisfaction like a sigh, and finally exhaled the breath of alcohol.

"Where is the good wine from the west? There are probably not many places in Luoyang that have this wine. Are you sure you don't want to have a glass?"

Xia Houmao shook his empty wine glass and asked.

Xiahouwei shook his head, he didn't want to drink at first, but he seemed to have something on his mind, but he unconsciously picked up the wine glass in his hand, raised it and drank it down.

"Hey! That's right!"

Xia Houzhen saw it, and immediately smiled, as if someone was drinking with him, which was a very happy thing.

He hastily served Xiahou Weiman himself again.

"Is this wine rose apple wine? It was shipped from the Shu captives?"

After Xia Houwei finished drinking, he also let out a sigh of relief, and was a little puzzled, "It doesn't look like it."

Xiahouzhen proudly said: "The drinking method passed down from the Shu captives, this roseberry wine is not ordinary roseberry wine. It is much stronger than we used to drink. When drinking, we need to add some other things."

Xia Houmao took another sip of wine, and wondered if it had been a long time since there were any visitors, so Tan Xing immediately came over while the wine was in full swing:

"Don't tell me, there are so many new things on the side of Shu captives, and they can drink tricks when they drink."

"It's like that candle. In the past, Dawei couldn't get many candles in the palace. What about now? Hey!"

Xia Houmao patted his thigh, "The caravan coming from the west sells them box by box!"

"That thing is smooth, round and white, as beautiful as white jade. Compared with them, Gong Zhu is far inferior."

"I heard that for Sima Ziyuan's marriage this time, the family bought hundreds of candles, tsk tsk tsk!"

Xia Houwei listened silently to Xia Houmao's nagging, and after drinking another glass of wine, he asked:

"I heard that there are people from your house in the caravan going to Guanzhong this time?"

"Yes." Xia Houzhen nodded and looked at Xia Houwei, "Why, your family also wants to go? It's late, next time remember to go to the Taifu's residence early to ask."

The caravan going out from Luoyang does not just leave as it wants, but has a quota.

Who can go and who can't, must get the consent of the Taifu Mansion, so as to avoid some unruly people from colluding with thieves.

Whether you can get through to the thief or not depends on whether you are loyal to Wei Zhong.

Especially this sincerity, sincere sincerity.

"The three families of the Xiahou clan are all trapped in Luoyang. What method did you use to get the Tai Tuo to agree to let your family's caravan go out of the city, and still go to Guanzhong?"

Xia Houwei never thought of asking about this before.

After all, it is not easy for each family of the Xiahou clan.

In addition, when the first emperor was present, we should try our best to reduce the communication with each other, which can also reduce the suspicion from the emperor.

Especially after Xiahouba fell into the hands of Han, Xiahouyuan's lineage was the most low-key.

Xiahouzhen was a little surprised when he heard that Xiahouwei kept asking about this matter:

"What? You really want to participate?"

Xia Houwei didn't answer, but looked straight at him:

"You haven't told me why the Tai Tuo sent your caravan out of Luoyang to Guanzhong?"

"Hey, what's the matter?" Xiahou Zhuhun replied indifferently, "When I was General Anxi, at least I was the governor of Guanzhong for nearly ten years. I still know some people in Guanzhong."

"Teacher can let the people in my house go to Guanzhong, is it because of these relationships..."

Before Xia Houmao finished speaking, he was interrupted by a "bang".

Taking a closer look, it turned out that it was Xia Houwei who directly threw the wine glass onto the desk.

The wine glass rolled a few times, fell to the ground, and shattered with a bang.

Xia Houwei stared coldly at Xia Houmao who was not ashamed but proud, angrily:

"How is this different from a thief?!"

Xiahouzhen was originally kind-hearted, but when he saw Xiahouwei's words and actions, he was taken aback for a while, and then he realized:

"What do you mean?"

Xia Houwei looked at Xia Houmao expressionlessly:

"These wines, as well as the candles you mentioned, even the brown sugar that the big families in Luoyang can't ask for, and even the wool and silk that have been in short supply these years."

"Even if these things are in the Shu Kingdom, if there is no way to buy them, I'm afraid there is no way to buy them, so just buy them?"

Seeing Xia Houwei's displeasure, Xia Houzhen understood that it was rare for the other party to come over, and it was actually Xingshi who asked him to blame him?

But seeing him sneer, he asked back, "What do you want to say?"

"The Great Wei and the Shu captives swore to be incompatible. They would be so kind to sell you so many good things? Don't forget, when you were in Guanzhong, you..."

This time it was Xia Houwei's turn, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xia Houmao: "Shut up!"

But seeing Xia Houmao's face flushed, he didn't know whether it was because of the drunkenness, or because he became angry from embarrassment, and directly smashed the wine glass in his hand to the ground.

"Feng thief! Feng thief's insidiousness, who knew back then? Not to mention me, even if it were someone else, I'm afraid it would be impossible to escape this thief's plot. Is it my fault? How can you blame me alone!"

The fact that Guanzhong was tricked by a certain thief back then without knowing it was actually a scar that Xia Houmao had been unable to heal over the years.

Fortunately, over the years, as Dawei has suffered more and more losses from this thief.

In comparison, the Guanzhong incident was not so conspicuous.

Didn't expect Xia Houwei to talk about this in front of him today, how can he not be surprised and angry.

"Taifu even lost Guanzhong. When Feng thief attacked and captured Bingzhou Hedong, which one of the many important officials of the Great Wei could have seen it in advance?"

Xia Houzhen stood up, glared at Xia Houwei, probably because of extreme anger, the foam began to fly randomly:

"The first emperor..."

"Okay!" Xia Houwei also stood up and shouted, "Stop talking!"

The two glared at each other like cockfights for a long time. In the end, Xia Houmao sat back first, picked up the flagon and took a few sips.

"Cough cough cough!"

I didn't expect to drink too fast, but I was choked instead.

He coughed several times, and put the wine jug on the desk:

"Why don't you say it? Why can't you say it? This Great Wei, our Xiahou family has a share, right? This Great Wei, the world, was not brought down by the Cao family, right?"

"You..." Xia Houwei wanted to stop it, but it was too late.

Xiahoumao's eyeballs are already red:

"It's only been a few years since Emperor Wu and Emperor Wen left such a huge country? It's only been a few years!"

"During the years I was guarding the customs, I didn't lose an inch of land. Then?"

"What about some people? It's only ten years, ten years! Even losing the land of three states, and even fleeing Luoyang after being frightened by thieves, ha, ha ha ha!"

Xia Houmao laughed like crazy while talking.

"Luoyang, the capital of the Great Wei Dynasty, it's hard to say whether the surname is Cao or Sima now!"

"You're drunk!" Xia Houwei gritted his teeth, and said to Xia Houzhu word by word, "Be careful!"

Xiahouzhen refused to listen, pointed at Xiahouwei, and shouted:

"The three tribes of Xiahou are said to be one, but Xiahou Taichu (namely Xiahouxuan) has been repeatedly recruited by Cao Zhaobo (namely Cao Shuang), and now he has decided to go to Xuchang."

"As for you, in the Kingdom of Shu, you have a second brother and a younger sister who is closer than your own sister! Of course you two don't have to worry, but what about me?"

"Did you forget that the Xiahou family has three clans, not two!"

I thought that marrying a long princess would be a brilliant event, but who would have expected that it would be a fatal event!

What the eldest princess is, she is simply a jealous old poisonous woman!

He has such a vicious heart that he actually wants to kill his husband-in-law.

Ordinary people encounter such things, wouldn't the ancestral graves be filled with black smoke?

But for Xia Houmao, things were far more than that.

It's fine if the wife is vicious and wants to kill her husband.

Unexpectedly, even his own brother listened to the old poisonous woman's bewitchment, and wanted to join her in conspiring to put his brother to death.

Is there any reason for this?

Husband and wife are like enemies inside, and brothers are like enemies, but they are still suspected by the emperor when they are outside...

Then there was chaos and trapped in Luoyang.

It is not an exaggeration to say that every day should not be done, and that the earth and the earth will not work.

"Tell me, what can I do? What can I do? I can't just wait to die like this forever?"

Xia Houmao was talking, but actually said that he was crying, and wiped his tears and said:

"Do you know how frightened I was when the Han army came to the river and the emperor was on a tour to the east? I don't know how many people I begged, but no one is willing to give me a hand."

"There are more than a hundred people in the mansion, all pointing at me to lead them to find a way out, what can I do?"

Brothers from other families, some people descended to Shu, and it seems that they killed the brothers who stayed in Wei.

In fact, it left hope for the family.

What about my brother?

Together, they want to put the charge of "slandering the emperor" on their own brother.

Don't they know that if the crime is really carried out, as their own brothers, they will also be implicated in the end?

It is conceivable that Xia Houmao, who was almost desperate and under tremendous pressure, would naturally hold on to the overtures of certain big families and regard it as the last straw.

As for why the Tai Tuo agreed with his family's caravan to go out of the city to Guanzhong, and whether there was something wrong, he could no longer care about it.

Even if he knew something was wrong, he didn't have the ability to refuse.

As if defending himself, Xia Houmao murmured:

"It's not that I have to send people there, so many people send people to ask, what can I do?"

"Do you know who these people are? Even if I shouldn't go down, do you think there is nothing they can do?"

"Just like the Naxin family, their ancestral home is in Longxi..."

Xia Houwei looked at Xia Houmao crying with a headache in his arms, and suddenly talked to himself, looking mentally disturbed, he didn't want to answer the conversation.

Unexpectedly, he heard the other party mention the Xin family, which made him feel excited, and subconsciously asked:

"What Xin family? Which Xin family?"

"Which other Xin family is there? Naturally, it is the Xin of Weiwei Xin (Xin Pi), who is also the Xin family of Yang's in-laws just like Zhong Quan (Xiahouba)."

Yanghu married Xiahouba's daughter Xiahoushi, and Yanghu's uncle Yangdan married Xin Xianying, daughter of Xinpi.

Although there are two generations of uncles and nephews, it is indeed not wrong to say that the two families are both related by marriage of the Yang family.

When Xia Houwei heard this, his forehead immediately rang.

I see, I see!

"Longxi Xin family, Longxi Xin family, Taishan Yang family..."

He sat down in a daze, picked up the flagon, drank a couple of gulps, his eyes were confused, and he murmured what he had said in front of Yang Hu:

"Good Wei, why did you become like this?"

Ten years ago, Great Wei was still in the middle of the world, and it was not an exaggeration to call it China.

But it's only ten years, ten years...

Xia Houzhen didn't know when he stopped crying, and moved over to hug Xia Houwei, regardless of whether tears and snot were wiped on him.

He could only hear him say with a bit of tongue out:

"Ji Quan, admit it, the current Great Wei is no longer the original Great Wei. Why do you think those big clans are in such a hurry to send a caravan to Guanzhong?"

Xia Houma heheed twice, not sure if it was a sneer or a mockery:

"Because of the Shang Shuling of the Great Wei Dynasty, he had already fled to Guanzhong and surrendered to the Kingdom of Shu. It was the Pei family from Hedong, hehe, these aristocratic families..."

"Even Shang Shuling took the initiative to surrender to the Kingdom of Shu. It is conceivable what the Great Wei Dynasty will be like now? Unless, unless Emperor Wu is reborn, otherwise, just rely on that..."

Before he finished speaking, Xiahouwei slashed his neck with a knife.

Xiahoumao's body fell down limply.

The midsummer sun shone fiercely on the earth.

Xia Houwei, who had just walked out of Xia Houmao's mansion, felt cold all over.

Watching people coming and going in the distance, listening to the noise farther away, everything is singing and dancing so peacefully, as if the world is at peace.

He felt that everything was so magical.

Looking to the west again, the sky there is clear and clear.

But he seemed to see black clouds in the sky, like a huge monster, staring at Luoyang.

At this moment, Xia Houwei finally realized what it means to be helpless and what it means to be incapable of doing anything.

He heaved a long sigh, and walked towards his house in a daze.
