Chapter 368 Is it a rare thing for the whole family to be held accountable?
Zhao Zhongquan felt that Xu Yu might really be crazy.
The kind of madness that is completely insane.
"Are you kidding me?"
Zhao Zhongquan stared at Xu Yu in disbelief, practically screaming, "That thing you're talking about is the lifeblood of my entire family. If it shows up where it shouldn't be, everyone in my family will be blamed!"
"you……"
"Is it a rare thing for the whole family to be questioned?"
Xu Yu raised his eyebrows indifferently and said disdainfully: "Look, my family is full of people..."
"That won't do!"
Zhao Zhongquan said angrily, "My family can't be compared to yours! If something goes wrong with me, no one in my family will survive!"
"If I hadn't intervened in time, you wouldn't have survived, right?"
Xu Yu carefully examined Zhao Zhongquan's rosy face and said slowly, "To be frank, the first seven days should have passed."
The facts that Xu Yu stated are the most difficult to accept.
Zhao Zhongquan struggled to calm down and said earnestly, "Don't just ask to borrow it. At least give me a reason why you have to borrow it."
"How could I possibly agree to give this to you if you don't say anything? Don't you think you should explain a little more so that I can understand what's going on?"
Xu Yu played with the teacup in his hand without saying a word.
Zhao Zhongquan blew his beard on the spot: "Anyway, it's no use looking at me!"
"If I don't explain it clearly, I won't let you see this thing!"
Being stubborn has its advantages.
But being stubborn can be really a headache.
Seeing that this was completely unreasonable, Xu Yu simply waved at Zhao Zhongquan: "Then come closer, and I'll tell you."
At three o'clock in the morning, a figure jumped out from a pile of lonely graves on the official road eighty miles away from Ancheng.
Zhao Zhongquan rolled around in the mud, nervously hugging his small bundle wrapped in three layers of layers. He sniffed and said cautiously, "Okay, let's go!"
Xu Yu was sitting on the horse with his back to the lonely grave. When he heard the sound, he pulled the reins and turned around. When he saw what Zhao Zhongquan was holding in his arms, the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.
"Isn't it just an official seal?"
Why is it hidden so tightly?
Zhao Zhongquan himself was not good at riding a horse and could not keep up the night journey. He put the small bundle in his arms and stretched out his hand to Xu Yu: "Hurry, hurry, pull me up."
Xu Yu sighed with a headache, and after Zhao Zhongquan got on his horse and sat down, he frowned and moved forward: "Just sit down, you're old, don't pull my waist."
"Is that something you can touch?"
"Hey you brat!"
Zhao Zhongquan's face darkened with anger. "If your father were still alive, you would have to address me as Uncle, understand? You're just so disrespectful!"
Xu Yu didn't care about the generation difference Zhao Zhongquan brought up, and said lazily, "It's a pity, my father died early."
"Besides, doesn't the sage's book say that saving a life is like giving birth again? If we take this a little more seriously, when you see my wife again, won't you affectionately call her godmother?"
"Please shut up, I beg you!"
Zhao Zhongquan couldn't win against Xu Yu, so he sneered in anger. He clutched the thing in his arms tightly and said back: "What do you know, you little brat?"
"This is not an official seal, it's the life of my entire family!"
Xu Yu heard something but said nothing.
Zhao Zhongquan said to himself, "Do you think I don't know that Shu is a dangerous place? How dare I come here without any preparation?"
"When I was in Kyoto, I guessed that this trip would not end well and was destined to be full of trouble. To ensure the best possible outcome, I even went to the palace to ask the Emperor for a sure-fire gift."
The imperial envoy consisted of three people, headed by Zhao Zhongquan.
No one except Zhao Zhongquan knew about the existence of this thing.
Zhao Zhongquan snorted and said into the wind, "I knew from the beginning that those two troublemakers were no good, so when they passed by here, I found an opportunity and hid the things beforehand!"
"If I hadn't been so careful, how would I have had the chance to survive and wait for you to save me?!"
It is impossible that the thing that made Zhao Zhongquan so cautious was just an official seal.
Xu Yu's eyes flickered silently, and a hint of mockery gradually appeared in his eyes: "Openly repairing the plank road, secretly crossing Chencang."
"You went to such great lengths to hide it so secretly. Could it be that the Emperor gave you an extra secret decree before leaving the capital?"
Zhao Zhongquan neither admitted nor denied it.
Only after a long while did Zhao Zhongquan, jolted by the turbulence of the horse's back, shout in a hoarse voice: "In short, just put your heart at ease!"
"As long as the person you're talking about is still alive, and the evidence they're alleging actually exists, even if it means risking my life, I will definitely bring the evidence back to Kyoto and present it before all the officials to seek justice for the people of Shu!"
"The crimes that should have been settled more than ten years ago must be explained now!"
Xu Yu just smiled when he heard it, raised his wrist and whipped the horse. The horse galloping through the night neighed again, and the sound of wind broke in his ears.
There were candles lit in Sang Zhixia's room all the time, and the sky was gradually getting brighter.
Until Xu Yu's voice sounded outside the door: "Zhizhi, I'm back."
Sang Zhixia put down the book in her hands and stood up. Seeing Xu Yu subconsciously pulling him towards her, she said, "Didn't you say you were only going to be out for a while? Why did you stay out all night? What happened?"
Xu Yu took a sip of his cold tea, shook his head, and sighed, "It's all thanks to the great blessing of that person down there."
"Do you know where he hid it?"
Sang Zhixia shook her head blankly: "Where?"
"A grave mound."
Xu Yu showed an expression of disbelief and said, "It's called a graveyard, but it's actually just a mass grave. They dug a pit and buried it there, and it's covered tightly."
Such a good place to hide things, except for Zhao Zhongquan himself, no one else would think of going there.
It is absolutely safe, but this person doesn't think it's unlucky.
Sang Zhixia didn't know how to evaluate Mr. Zhao's caution for a moment. He poured Xu Yu another cup of tea and said, "Have you got it now?"
"right."
Xu Yu nodded and ruffled Sang Zhixia's hair, whispering, "Chen Anzhu can't die. She'll have to follow Zhao Zhongquan into Kyoto soon to serve as a witness. It's inappropriate for her to see me, so I'm asking for your help."
Different from Xu Yu, the well-known Kyoto playboy.
When Sang Zhixia was still in her boudoir, she never left the house. Not to mention Shen Anzhu, who had just arrived in Kyoto, even the ladies and nobles of the Kyoto families rarely knew her.
When the Xu family needed to be hidden, it would be best for Xu Yu to not show up from beginning to end for the sake of safety.
Sang Zhixia understood Xu Yu's intention after a moment's hesitation. She agreed and then said, "Don't try to climb over the walls or lie on the rooftops. You're such a grown man, aren't you afraid of being laughed at if others see you?"
"I'll go invite them to the next room. Before they get there, you can go in and sit behind the screen for a while. Don't make any noise and interrupt, so no one can see you."
Xu Yu held back his laughter and said yes repeatedly. He quickly kissed Sang Zhixia on the forehead and turned to go next door.
Sang Zhixia changed her clothes and pushed the door open, making eye contact with Zhao Zhongquan, who had just changed his clothes and washed his face.
It would have been fine if I didn't know his identity before, but now that I know who Zhao Zhongquan is, it would be inappropriate to turn a blind eye.
Sang Zhixia followed the etiquette and politely bowed and said hello: "Sang Zhixia greets Master Song."
Zhao Zhongquan looked critical: "Sang Zhixia?"
"I heard you are from the Sang family?"
Sang Zhixia nodded with a smile: "Yes."
"He looks more human than your filthy father, and more respectable than that old man."
As soon as Sang Zhixia appeared, she was subjected to a ruthless attack from her scumbag father. Her eyes were complicated and she chose to remain silent.
She really couldn't accept this.
Zhao Zhongquan could tell the difference, and said immediately: "I'm not insulting you, I just simply look down on your stupid dad."
"I have a grudge against your father, it has nothing to do with you."
Sang Zhixia smiled obediently and said considerately, "You talk about yours, I understand the rest."
"Please sit down and rest for a while. I will go and get the person you want to see."
Zhao Zhongquan was very pleased with Sang Zhixia's obedience. He nodded reservedly and went into the room where Xu Yu was hiding.
Sang Zhixia sighed with mixed feelings.
I have never seen a scumbag father, but everyone who meets someone who knows a scumbag father will start by cursing him.
How could this scumbag father who lives far away in Kyoto be despised like this? How unpopular is he?
What a failure as a human being.
Sang Zhixia sighed as she walked to where Shen Anzhu was staying temporarily. She raised her hand and knocked on the door three times: "Miss Shen, would you mind coming out for a moment?"
