Chapter 201 Taibai Building

The Siying of the Dark Night understood Hu You's thoughts, so she didn't come up to help. However, as the hall burned and caught fire, Zhu Daneng, Hou San and Zhebe, who were hiding aside, could also see things.

The three of them saw Hu You holding a chair and fighting with the assassin in a mess. Can they still watch from the side? They all rushed over with screams and demoted to the assassin.

The performance was almost done. Hu You withdrew from the battlefield and left the assassin for Zhu Daneng and some other people to play. He ran to Gattuso and said carelessly: "Big Prince, are you okay?"

Gatuso hummed and said with a smile: "I was stabbed. Fortunately, my light armor is strong, otherwise I would have to lie here today. Brother Hu You, thank you for helping you today, Xiao Wang remember."

While Hu You was speaking, he also found Gatuso's left hand pressing against his ribs, and blood kept popping up. Compared to those noble children, Gatuso's performance after being injured is quite good. This made Hu You feel a little comforted, at least he did not save a single useless man.

Hu You said: "Don't say that to the eldest prince, this is what the last one should do."

Hu You said, looking at the hall, which was mostly in the fire, and continued in a negotiation tone: "The fire is getting bigger and bigger, so why not I protect the eldest prince and leave here first."

Gattuso agreed, "Then I'll trouble General Hu You."

Hu You helped Gatu out of the main hall, and saw Casilla in the small square outside. This kid didn't know where to hide before. Seeing his relaxed look, he obviously did not suffer any harm.

When Casilla saw Gattuso and Hu You coming out, he ran over immediately and asked with concern: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Gattuso didn't want to be weak in front of the third brother, so he said voluntarily: "It's nothing. I met an assassin, but fortunately General Hu You took action in time."

A hint of jealousy appeared in Casilla's eyes, and disappeared in an instant. He respectfully bowed to Hu You and said, "Thank you, General Hu You, for helping him, otherwise Xiao Wang would have to lose his brother today."

Hu You suddenly realized that when it comes to acting, he might not be as good as the third prince in front of him. He didn't know how much he wanted Gatuso to die, but he could even thank him for Gatuso.

Hu You said: "The third prince must not say that. This is what the last general should do, and he dare not take his own credit."

Casilla smiled and said, "General Hu You is too humble. If you don't reward such great achievements, wouldn't the people laugh at me for being stingy in the royal family? I will definitely report this to Your Majesty and ask for me for the General Hu You."

Gattuso was so angry that he finally raised his breath and interrupted: "I won't bother with this matter. I will report General Hu You's contribution to my father."

It was not until then that Gatuso's guard came and knelt on the ground with a look of fear and said, "The eldest prince, the eldest prince, I will be late in the future. I will ask the eldest prince to punish him."

"Pa" Gatuso slapped the guard commander in the face, and snorted heavily, saying nothing. The guard looked pale, and it seemed that he knew that his fate would not be very good.

The main hall of Sophia is located on the mountain, and the water needed for normal use is pulled up from the bottom of the mountain. The main hall with tinder oil is not so easy to extinguish when burned. If you want to save it, you must use a lot of water. But there is no such a lot of water on the mountain, and all the fires are impossible to control. Not long after, the fire spread from the main hall to the back hall. Seeing Sophia running out with a gray face, Hu You was almost laughing in his heart.

Sophia was really a failure to steal the chicken this time, but she lost the rice instead. Seeing that Gattuso was only slightly injured, the third prince Casilla was nothing, but she paid for a stronghold that cost several million gold coins. She was so angry that she almost vomited blood. Look at her face so cold that she could almost use it as a refrigerator.

Seeing that Sophia came out, Hu You handed Gattuso to his guard, ran over and saluted, "Is the princess still okay?"

Sophia is worthy of being a strange woman, and she can still laugh: "Thank you, General Hu You for your concern, this concubine is not seriously injured."

Hu You sighed with relief and said, "Good, lucky. If something happens to the princess' noble body, it will be the misfortune of my people and the misfortune of the empire."

A night banquet ended with a fire. After Hu You had a social event, he brought Zhu Daneng, Hou San and Zhebe back to Fengyuan together. Chu Zhu never appeared again after the fire. Hu You asked Zhu Daneng and others, but they didn't know where Chu Zhu went.

Hu You got off the car and saw Fu Chen, one of the four maids, beside him.

Fu Chen said in a sweet voice: "Young Master, you are back. Fu Chen has made you a midnight snack."

Hu Youqi said: "Do you know I don't have anything to eat?"

"Yeah," Fu Chen said with a heavy emphasis: "Uncle Fu said that the young master must have nothing to eat with the princess, so he asked Fu Chen to prepare food for the young master."

Hu You snorted: "How did Uncle Fu know?"

Fu Chen said, "Because the fire in the other courtyard is on fire, the fire is so big that we all see it."

Hu You said: "You all know that the fire in the other courtyard is on fire, so why don't you go and save me?"

Fu Chen said, "Taxing was going to go, but Uncle Fu said that the young master will definitely not have any trouble. If she refuses to let her go, she will get into trouble with the young master."

Hu You cursed in his heart, and this Ximen Zhanlong really knew everything.

Seeing that Defu did not come out as usual, Hu You couldn't help but ask Fu Chen, "Where is Uncle Fu, why didn't you see him?"

Fu Chen wrinkled his cute little nose and said, "Uncle Fu went to bed. He also told him that as long as the sky did not fall, the young master should not disturb him sleep. He also said that when people get old, their memory will not be very good, and some things are easy to forget, but fortunately they are all small things."

Others can't understand this, but Hu You still doesn't understand it? Defu told Hu You that he deliberately did not say anything about the other courtyard and told Hu You not to look for him because of this.

What else could Hu You say besides cursing Defu's old fox in his heart? Defu gave him all the Siying of the Night, which was quite good to him. He also told Fu Chen to make a midnight snack. He had already apologized. Hu You were embarrassed to arrest Defu and beat him up. Besides, the old guy was very deep, and it might not be necessary for Hu You to beat him up if he didn't do it well.

Forget it, don’t think about anything. Tonight, I use wisdom and force, and I’m so tired. I’ll go to Fuchen to have her midnight snack first, and then let Na Yue enjoy the whole body massage. You must have the best time to have the best life. If you have the pleasure, enjoy it first.

"What, Princess Sophia was assassinated? When did it happen? Uncle Fu, what you said was the last night." Hu You held the oil cake in one hand and the chopsticks in the other hand, looking at Defu who had just come in from outside.

Defu nodded and said seriously: "It was last night, but not in a villa, but on the way back to the palace. The assassin hid in the water in advance."

Hu You asked: "How is her situation? Do you know who did it?"

Defu shook his head and said, "It's not clear yet. The news of Sophia's assassination is still highly confidential. I only know so much."

Hu Youyu nodded in disappointment. He also knew that the Water Palace was very strict and it was not easy to receive these messages.

After breakfast, Hu You returned to the study to read. In the afternoon, he planned to see Hongye's mother. Hongye is the only daughter in the family, and Hongfangzheng and the other two gave birth to her, a precious daughter. Now he left his precious daughter in Dongwangcheng. What's wrong, he has to see that the old man is not.

When Xuan Ri came in, he brought a big red invitation to Hu You: "Young Master, the eldest prince sent someone to send an invitation to invite you to gather at Tianxianlou tonight."

Hu You opened the invitation and looked at it, shook his head slightly and said, "The eldest prince is really anxious. He is going to go into battle with his injuries. What about another one?"

Xuan Ri asked in surprise: "Do you know there is another one?"

Hu You smiled and said, "The third prince is not a good-looking lamp. Alas, I have to drink this empire's wine."

Xuan Ri smiled and put another invitation from the third prince Casilla on the table, asked Hu You, "Young Master, whose appointment are you planning to go to."

Hu You threw Casilla's invitation aside and said angrily: "I don't know how to clone the art, so if you go to one, you will offend the other. Now the situation in the imperial capital is getting more and more chaotic. It is not good for us to stand up enemies. I will not go to any appointment.

If you help me reply to them, you will say that I really have something important today and can’t go. Tomorrow, I will accompany them in Taibailou and let them come together.”

Taibai Tower and Tianxian Tower and Zhaixing Tower are different. The latter two families are famous brothels, while Taibai Tower is a famous restaurant. There is no goddess to accompany you to eat, nor does it drink flower wine or make tea to adjust the setting. Hu You didn’t want to go to brothels, but his brothel luck was really not very good. Now in such a turbulent autumn, it’s better not to go to brothels.

Defu had no objection to Hu You's decision. After learning that Hu You was going to treat him in Taibai Building, he sent someone to make a seat for Hu You.

Taibai Building has three floors in total, which is a relatively tall building in the imperial capital. People who can have three floors of buildings in the imperial capital have a certain way, and opening a restaurant requires even more ways. Defuding's wing room is located at the north end of the top floor of Taibai Building. From here, you can see the heart of the Mandala Empire - the Water Palace.

There is enough space for setting up five tables of banquets, and at this time there is only one table next to the window. This table was specially customized by Hu You, and the tabletop is an equal triangle.

When Ximen Xue saw the drawings that Hu You casually drew, her eyes lit up. In this era, rectangular or square and round tables were mostly used. This was the first time she saw such an equilateral triangle table. The reason why she was interested was not because of the shape of the table, but because of the meaning behind the table. Hu You used a very obscure way to tell Gattuso and Casilla that the three people sitting on this table had equal identities.

When Hu You arrived at Taibai Tower, the third prince Casilla had already arrived first. In front of him, there was a fat white man in his fifties. The two of them murmured, not knowing what they were saying.

Before Hu You could speak anxiously, Casilla stood up first and laughed and said, "Brother Hu You is here just right. Xiao Wang is studying your table with Boss Li. Boss Li said he wanted to buy your design drawing, but I wonder if Brother Hu You is willing to give up?"

Before Hu You came, Defu said that the boss of Taibai Building was named Li Taibai. He had a certain friendship with powerful people from all walks of life in this imperial capital and had a certain degree of strength. Unexpectedly, he also had a friendship with Casilla.

Hu You asked Casilla first, and then said modestly: "That's just a last-minute game. If you think it's fun, you'll make it for the eldest prince and the third prince to try it out. It's not a design, so you can make the third prince and Boss Li laugh."

When he heard Hu You's words, Casilla and Li Taibai laughed. When Li Taibai smiled, his fat body was trembling, making people worry if this wooden floor could withstand his weight. Don't just walk out and go down the bottom floor.

Li Taibai said: "I have long heard that General Hu You, the immortal bird, was extremely powerful in the battlefield, and captured Langtian City in one day, which was even more popular. Unexpectedly, General Hu You is still a talented person. It is rare, rare."

At this moment, the eldest prince Gattuso also arrived and shouted when he entered the door: "I seem to be coming a little late. What do you say? I'm so happy that I've heard laughter downstairs."

This Gattuso seemed to have always deliberately let go of his status as a prince, but he was always not as natural as Casilla.

"Li Taibai has seen His Highness the Great Prince." Li Taibai saluted Gatuso first. Hu You and Casilla also stood up to welcome Gatuso.

Gatuso waved his hand and said, "Everyone is free, no gifts, sit down, don't be polite to your family." Gatuso said, walking in, and then suddenly saw the triangular table, and said in surprise: "Oh, Xiao Wang hasn't come to Taibailou for a few days, Boss Li has changed the table? This table is quite special, good, good."

Hu You laughed in his heart. Gatuso was too artificial. He didn't believe Gatuso didn't know that he got the table.

Li Taibai laughed and said, "The villain dare not take this contribution. This table was designed and produced by General Hu You. Just now, the villain was asking General Hu You to sell the drawings to the villain."

Gattuso laughed and said, "It turns out that this is Brother Hu You's work. No wonder I thought it was very friendly when I saw it."

After making polite decisions, Li Taibai consciously stepped back, Hu You, Gattuso and Casilla sat in three sides. Because the table shape is quite special, all three of them could see the river view below.

The three of them were drinking tea and joking. The door of the room was knocked lightly, and a timid, silver bell-like voice came in: "Three distinguished guests, can the little girl come in?"

Hu You and the other two turned their heads at the same time when they heard the sound. They saw a woman about fifteen or sixteen years old. Her long hair seemed to be carefully combed. Her two horns were very cute. Her small face looked beautiful and charming and a little naughty. She held a food plate with a delicate hand and a pot of wine on the plate.

Hu You turned his head to look at Gattuso and Casilla, smiled and waved to the girl, "Come in, ***."

The girl pouted and said, "I don't call her ***, but I call her Li Xiaoyu."

Li Xiaoyu's words caused Hu You and the other two to laugh. Li Xiaoyu's little face turned slightly red, and she stomped her feet gently, but she didn't run away.

Hu You laughed several times before stopping and laughing: "It turns out it's Li Xiaoyu. Are you going to give us wine? Come in quickly, we are waiting for the wine to drink."

Li Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment, stepped to the table, looked at Hu You and the other two curiously with her big eyes.

Seeing that Li Xiaoyu was quite interesting, Hu You couldn't help but ask, "Can I call you Xiaoyu?"

Li Xiaoyu nodded and said softly.

Hu You said: "Xiaoyu, what kind of wine is in your wine pot? Does it have a name?"

Li Xiaoyu said: "Of course there is a name. My father said it is called Daughter Hong. It has been on sale for fifteen years."

Hu You smiled and said, "Oh, it's still a Shenjiu. I heard that Daughter Hong is the wedding wine brewed by whose daughter was born. It is the most fragrant and mellow. I don't know if your wine is good, so I'll give us a glass to try it."

Li Xiaoyu glanced at Hu You, shook her head and said, "No."

Hu You and the other two guessed that Li Xiaoyu must have been arranged by Li Taibai to deliver the wine, otherwise she would not have been able to get in this wing room. However, Li Xiaoyu shook her head unexpectedly, which surprised them and became interested.

This time it was Gattuso who asked, "Why don't we drink?"

Li Xiaoyu curled her lips and said, "My father said, let Xiaoyu come here to deliver wine to the two princes and one general, but Xiaoyu didn't see the prince and the general, so this wine cannot be given to you."

If these words were said from someone else's mouth, some of the people present would definitely be angry. But Li Xiaoyu is so cute, she is as pink as a porcelain doll, and it is really hard to make people angry.

Casilla asked, "Why didn't you see the prince and the general? Don't we three look like the prince and the general?"

Li Xiaoyu looked at Hu You and the other two seriously again, and shook her head and said, "It's not like it."

Gattuso and Casilla were both a little stunned. They had seen those who were playing tricks, but they had never seen those who were like this. They grew up so old that no one dared to say in front of them that they did not look like princes. If they were disrespectful to the prince, they would have to beheaded.

Hu You glanced at Gattuso and Casilla. Seeing that they were just glaring at each other, but were not angry, he breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he also secretly praised the little girl's boldness in his heart.

Needless to ask, Li Xiaoyu must be Li Taibai's daughter. Before Li Taibai asked her to come up to deliver the drink, she must have told her who was sitting in this room. But when she came in, she didn't pour wine like ordinary people, but instead dared to talk to them like this. Not everyone dared to do this.
