Chapter 278 Life Money
The eunuch in colorful clothes narrowed his eyes and confirmed with Zhao Hu in disbelief:
"You mean you want me to pay you for your life?"
Seeing that the other party's tone was unkind, Zhao Hu's expression immediately turned serious.
He was about to lean into the ear of the eunuch in colorful clothes and continue to whisper, but the eunuch in colorful clothes raised his hand to stop him.
When Zhao Hu saw the eunuch in colorful clothes raising his hand, his whole body suddenly shrank back, looking very alert.
"Stop playing tricks on me. If you have something to say, just say it directly!"
The eunuch in colorful clothes said to Zhao Hu in a very angry tone.
Zhao Hu's expression immediately became uncertain, as if he hadn't heard anyone talk to him like this for a long time.
"Okay, Mingren don't tell secret words."
Although Zhao Hu said this, his voice became smaller and smaller.
His voice was loud at first, but by the end the words were as thin as a mosquito. His momentum was completely inconsistent with the content of his words.
Li Xuan and others who were watching the show were also confused and didn't know what this guy was going to do.
Zhao Hu put a hand on his mouth, and then lowered his voice and said something.
Princess Ankang and the others didn't hear clearly, but Li Xuan heard it clearly and immediately became stunned.
"Uncle, it's not you who pays me for my life, it's me who pays for your life."
The originally aggressive eunuch in colorful clothes blinked a few times after hearing these words, thinking that he had heard wrongly.
Then Zhao Hu turned aside and took out a heavy bag from his arms.
"Uncle, there are fifty taels here, just a little more."
"It's already a very fair market price."
"Our young master has such a good face, can you accept the money as a favor and let the previous matter be revealed as if nothing happened."
"Zhao Hu is very grateful!"
Only then did Li Xuan somewhat understand the situation.
"Is this guy begging for mercy?"
"hiss--"
"What a novel way to ask for mercy."
Thinking about Zhao Hu's arrogant attitude before, he thought he was going to fight the eunuch in flower clothes.
In the end, what he wanted was to negotiate and spend money to settle matters, and he spent the money himself.
At this time, Zhao Hu suddenly threw the bag containing silver in his hand. The eunuch in colorful clothes was stunned and subconsciously took it in his hand.
"Please, sir, show me some face. I'll offend you. I'll offend you..."
As Zhao Hu said this, he put down the hand covering his mouth, and then shouted loudly:
"Grandpa Zhao Hu is happy today. If you don't dare to be blind in the future, don't blame me for turning against others!"
Zhao Hu put down a beautiful remark, then quickly separated the crowd and chased in the direction where Fourth Young Master Zhao had left.
Judging from his footsteps that are getting faster and faster, you can tell that he is a loyal and good slave who cannot bear to be separated from his young master for even a quarter of an hour.
Seeing that the excitement was gone, passers-by dispersed one after another.
But still talking about the previous things.
"The Zhao family is still so majestic."
"Then Zhao Hu is also amazing. He looks like a heroic hero at first glance. It's also because this young man is lucky, otherwise he wouldn't be fooled so easily."
"Yeah yeah."
Passers-by all agreed, and a few people even passed by the eunuch in colorful clothes and advised him to go home quickly and not wander around on the road, so as to avoid Zhao Hu being upset and coming back to trouble him.
But some people asked without knowing why:
"Then Zhao Hu is so majestic?"
"Why did you throw a bag to the young man before you finally left? It sounded like it was money."
"What do you know? Mr. Tiger is just laughing away his grudges and teaching this young man who knows nothing about the world a lesson. He should get out of the city quickly before anyone is killed."
"This capital city is not something that a stupid young man like this can just break into."
The passers-by spoke very seriously, and when the eunuch in colorful clothes realized what was going on, he was so angry that his face turned green and red.
"Look, Master Hu was so moved by that young man that he almost cried."
"Although Lord Tiger helped Fourth Young Master Zhao out of necessity, he is actually a good person."
Several eunuchs in colorful clothes who were traveling with him looked at the colleague who was still carrying the bag with strange expressions. They all used their energy and blood to control the corners of their mouths with all their strength.
The insulted eunuch in colorful clothes was so angry that his chest heaved up and down, but in the end he still endured it with his superb professionalism.
He took a few steps forward and respectfully presented the bag containing silver in front of the two princesses.
"You two ladies, please let me know how to deal with this."
The eunuch in colorful clothes bared his teeth after saying this, and couldn't wait to ask the two princesses to order him to capture those people so that he could vent his anger.
It was rare for him to leave the palace to perform a mission, and he ended up in this kind of thing.
If he didn't have an explanation, he might be laughed at by his companions for how long.
Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan were still a little confused and didn't know what was going on.
The eunuch in colorful clothes immediately explained that the silver tael was the money paid by the other party to buy his life.
"Money for life?"
Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan looked stunned, then looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
I saw that the fat man was quite arrogant before, and the middle-aged nurse in his early years was also yelling and looking like he was not easy to talk to. In the end, he secretly bought his life with the flower-dressed eunuch.
"Since this money is the money paid by the other party to buy his life, why not..."
Princess Ankang thought for a moment and suppressed the word "father-in-law" on her lips.
This is outside the palace, so it’s better not to use this special name.
"It's better to just accept it and let that person go."
Princess Ankang could also see that the eunuch in colorful clothes was angry.
But they were here to have fun, and as long as the other party didn't bully her to the extreme, Princess Ankang didn't bother to argue with the Fourth Young Master Zhao.
Of course, if the other party insists on seeking death, Princess Ankang will be helpless.
She knew very well that the eunuch in colorful clothes who was bowing respectfully in front of her was a master trained by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It would take more than a cup of tea to kill the group of people just now.
This was also the reason why Li Xuan was surprised by Zhao Hu's strength before.
Zhao Hu looked like he was only at the eighth level of strength, and Li Xuan couldn't even figure out why he was so arrogant.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Hu actually had a pair of discerning eyes.
I don’t know when this guy decided that he couldn’t afford to offend the colorful eunuch, so he actually let him fish in troubled waters, threw down a bag of silver and ran away.
And judging from the reactions of pedestrians on the road, I'm afraid this is not the first time Zhao Hu has done this.
Even if an ordinary expert encounters this, he will have to think about what is going on before he can think clearly about it when he goes home.
And after all, you took someone else's money, so it's hard to say anything.
After being confused like this a few times, the reputation of this Tiger Master was gradually formed.
The eunuch in colorful clothes shook his head and refused Princess Ankang's proposal, and then explained: "Miss Zhen, little people have rules. You can't keep this kind of money, otherwise you will be punished when you go back."
"this……"
Princess Ankang and Princess Yuanan both looked embarrassed.
At this time, the eunuch in colorful clothes continued:
"This life-saving money was originally compensated by the other party to the two young ladies. Why not use it on today's expenses, so that the villain will feel better."
Li Xuan's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but take another look at the colorful eunuch in front of him.
As expected, everyone in the palace is talented and speaks nicely.
The flower-dressed eunuch's act of borrowing flowers and offering them to the Buddha was a beautiful one, and it wasn't offensive at all.
Before Princess Ankang said anything, Princess Yuanan took the bag of silver, looked through it, and said:
"Then we would be disrespectful."
The eunuch in colorful clothes said happily: "It's my honor."
After saying that, he slowly stepped aside and stopped disturbing the two princesses.
Li Xuan nodded and had a good impression of this eunuch in colorful clothes who looked to be in his twenties.
"The talents cultivated by Old Zhaotou are quite good."
Princess Yuan'an poured out the silver from the bag, counted it, and found that it was exactly fifty taels, one tael not too much, one tael too much.
"The money was collected too neatly."
Thinking of the "bold words" left by Zhao Hu before, Princess Yuanan almost laughed in anger.
Princess Ankang was also amused. She didn't expect that there were so many interesting people outside the palace.
Although that Fourth Young Master Zhao was very annoying, that Zhao Hu did not make him hate him.
Speaking of which, Zhao Hu also fulfilled his duty as a nurse and spent money to protect his young master's safety.
"By the way, Yuan An."
"Do you know whose family the fourth young master of the Zhao family belongs to?"
Princess Ankang asked curiously.
She knew nothing about things outside the palace, so she thought of asking Princess Yuanan.
In response, Princess Yuanan also shook her head.
"There are many families named Zhao in the capital, but I don't know which family is so uncultured that they came up with such a thing."
The family that can be remembered by Princess Yuanan will naturally not be an ordinary family.
No matter whose family it is, Princess Yuan'an dares to say this because she is qualified to say so.
"Oh, Emperor..."
"Sister, outside this palace, the second generation of these people are more powerful than us."
"There are so many common people in front of us who are just allowed to be bullied by them."
"What about us?"
"Just bully your own servants. If you do it too much, there will be many people taking care of it, and you may even be punished."
"And them!"
When Princess Yuanan said this, she couldn't help but shook her head, as if she had heard a lot of ridiculous things.
"I heard that even the two county governments in the capital have trouble controlling them."
"Some are more ridiculous, such as the Zhao Si who passed by before. It is comparable to a human-shaped plague. Everyone is afraid of it. Who is not allowed to go around it?"
Princess Ankang felt bad after hearing this. She had also seen how pedestrians on the road avoided Zhao Si.
That reaction is almost instinctive.
This cannot be achieved in a day or two.
This shows how domineering Zhao Si is on weekdays.
Princess Ankang's eyes flickered, as if she had some idea.
"Yuan An, do you think we are not here to investigate the case this time?"
"Do you think the person you are investigating is someone like Zhao Si?"
Princess Yuan'an scooped a spoonful of sugar-steamed cheese and was about to shake her head, denying Princess Ankang's innocence.
As a result, as soon as she raised her head and met Princess Ankang's shining eyes, she understood the meaning behind her words.
"Sister, this is not easy to deal with."
