Chapter 548: Secret Part 2
The moon is in the middle of the sky.
Huo Xi took Huo Shufan away from the Duke of Yan's Mansion.
Standing in front of the tall vermilion gate of the Duke of Yan's Mansion, Huo Xi turned his head and looked at it. The smile on his face became increasingly strong, and there was a ray of extreme envy in his eyes:
"This is the real high-level gate!"
"Type and majestic, even the servants in the mansion behave in moderation!"
"After you get married to the Sixth Princess, such a high-ranking party can be in and out at will!"
"With the support and commitment of Duke Yan, our Huo family... although they cannot become such a high-ranking family for the time being, they are just around the corner!"
Tonight, Duke Yan personally invited the grandfather and grandson.
The attitude is not very friendly, but it is not cold.
This is a great honor for the grandson and grandson of the Huo family who came from Guangling City.
Because sitting with people of this kind of identity is something they have never thought of before.
During the meal, Duke Yan asked about Guangling City.
More things are about Li Chenan.
Huo Xi naturally had his own way of doing this. He had heard Huo Shufan talk about the conflict between Yan Zifu and Li Chenan. The Duke of Yan's actions meant that of course, he would understand Li Chenan more, and then he would definitely strangle Li Chenan to death easily!
The grandfather and grandson walked towards the carriage.
Huo Xi said again: "Duke Yan said he would give you the Meiyuan Garden as the residence of the son-in-law..."
He raised his foot onto the carriage, Huo Shufan followed, and the two sat in the carriage, and he said again: "The arrangement of Meiyuan, this matter cannot be made to cost Duke Yan any more."
"Our Huo family has a shallow foundation. If you want to gain a foothold in Kyoto, even if you get married to the Sixth Princess, you still need to establish a good relationship with the Duke of Yan's Mansion. So tomorrow you will send 30,000 taels of silver to the Duke of Yan's Mansion... Our Huo family will only have a little more silver."
"This is the key to being a human being!"
"We must also express our views on the Duke of Yan's mansion, but we must not let Duke Yan underestimate our Huo family."
The carriage headed towards the Ho Mansion in Kyoto.
Huo Shufan listened carefully to his grandfather's instructions, responded one by one, and finally asked:
"Grandpa, little sister, I feel like Li Chenan is still concerned. Is there any way to help Li Chenan?"
Huo Xi shook his head without hesitation when he stroked his long beard:
"no!"
"Before, grandpa was cheated by Li Chenan, almost a big mistake... He didn't say anything but a harsh thing. Li Chenan thought that with the Marquis of Dingguo as a backer, he would dare to act recklessly... This is Kyoto!"
"He has offended Prime Minister Shang, and now he has offended Duke Yan. Although the Dingguo Marquis' Mansion is powerful, it has not yet reached the height of being able to get into evil with the Prime Minister's Mansion and Duke Yan's Mansion at the same time... If grandpa is the head of the Dingguo Marquis' Mansion, under the current situation, he should decisively draw a clear line with Li Chen'an, otherwise, he would be afraid that the Dingguo Marquis' Mansion would be implicated by that boy and fall into a state of doom!"
"After going back, grandpa will have a good life and say to Shuyi, her idea is too dangerous!"
"If my grandson understands, he will also persuade his sister."
"Well, this daughter's family affairs are all small things. I remember that there is another big thing tomorrow... I will go to the Honglu Temple to become a disciple of Mr. Wei!"
...
...
Kyoto Ho Prefecture is located to the west of the eighth bridge in the middle of the Yudai River. This street is called Shijing Alley, not far from Kyoto Prefecture, and is considered a prosperous place in Yujing City.
Because it is closer to Jingzhao Mansion, the direction of this place is safe. Even the gangsters in Yujing City dare not act around here. After all, the sword in the hand of Lord Xiangdong Xiang, the current prefect of Jingzhao Mansion, is really good at killing people.
But an accident seemed to have occurred tonight.
The prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture Xiangxianglai went to bed late.
He was in the backyard of the Jingzhao Government Office, and there was a lantern in a book.
Just then, someone suddenly rushed into the backyard.
Looking east, I saw that the person who came was Luo Dong'an, the young master of the young master of Luo Guogong's mansion in Kyoto.
Luo Dongan hurried to Xiangdong, bowed and said with a serious expression: "Sir Xiang, Gangwu Hou Chen Gang came to report that the Huo Mansion in Shijing Alley was stolen by the bandits!"
Xiangdong frowned and put down the book in his hand: "Have you grabbed it?"
"Sir, no!"
“Why?”
"Chen Gang said there were twelve bandits, but they were all riding horses, covering their faces and carrying swords... They had very good martial arts skills, and all fifteen constables from Wuhou Shop were dispatched, but they were easily knocked down!"
After stroking his beards to the east, Kyoto said that peace was not the case. However, under his own suppression over the years, bandits and people in the world rarely cause trouble in Kyoto.
But this case happened tonight...
"How many people died in the Huo family?"
"Sir, no one died, but he was tied up by the bandit. The official ordered the constable to go and ask for details."
"Um……"
Xiangdong stood up and looked at the bright moon in the sky. Since there were as many as twelve bandits, they were all riding horses and carrying swords, the city gate was closed at this moment, so they must have escaped.
He was suddenly shocked... Could it be a private soldier from a certain aristocratic family in the city?
However, the aristocratic families who can own private soldiers have a high status and should not be short of money. Why did they send people to the Huo Mansion to rob?
Recently, I heard that Huo Baiyang's son of the Huo family was spotted by the Sixth Princess. I am afraid that he will soon become the Sixth Princess's son-in-law... The case happened at this time. Could it be that a certain family was dissatisfied with it?
Not right!
If you are dissatisfied, you will kill someone instead of doing this robbery.
Kyoto is now in trouble, and you have to be more careful when doing anything at this time.
"Let's go to Huo Mansion!"
Xiangdong and Luo Dong'an took several constables to the Huo Mansion. At this moment, Huo Xi's carriage had arrived at the door of the Huo Mansion.
The grandfather and grandson got off the carriage but were suddenly shocked because the door of the Huo Mansion was wide open, and there were two detectives with knives standing in front of the door.
Huo Xi walked over in surprise, but was stopped by the constable:
"Who are you waiting for?"
"I am the master here!"
The two constables looked at each other. When the older constable looked at Huo Xi, there was a little sympathy in his eyes. At this moment, Huo Xi asked again:
"Master, what's going on?"
"You guys go in, your house has been robbed."
Huo Xi was stunned and his face suddenly changed. He couldn't even take care of Huo Shufan, so he ran into it.
When he came to the main courtyard and saw his housekeeper knowing what had happened, he rolled his eyes and fell to the ground with a "bang..."
And at this moment.
Lijingsi headquarters.
The fourth princess Ning Chuchu put the pile of gold and silver like a hill in front of her, and the silver notes scattered on it, her eyes straightened!
"Chen An did not lie to me!"
"The fastest way to make money...is really robbery!"
“Kaiyang,”
"I'm here!"
"Send someone to count it. Don't let go of any news about this matter, and then... let's find out who else is suitable for robbery in Kyoto!"
Kaiyang swallowed and suddenly realized that His Highness had changed!
Is this really good?
If the matter is exposed and Ji Tai catches the handle, it may be extremely unfavorable to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!
"Your Highness, why don't you... wait until the storm is over?"
"...It makes sense. I'll go back first and tell me how much money I've got!"
"good!"
Ning Chuchu took Zhiquan back to her princess's mansion happily. Then when she heard the maid's report, she realized that Zhongli Ruoshui had been here in the evening and invited her to go to Huaxi Villa for a gathering tomorrow.
She took off the face towel and muttered: "Is it possible that this little girl has known that I have met Li Chenan? Is this going to ask me to understand?"
Chapter completed!
