"Make it of hair, attach the upper and lower parts to each other, and take the bamboo joints."

Xu Zongwen is holding a sword in his hand, which is equivalent to Shang Fang's sword. It can kill officials below two thousand stones, that is, officials below the fifth rank!

"The general's favor is growing day by day. After today, he will be the target of public criticism. If he has no way of retreating, he is destined to have no choice but to swim against the current."

When Xu Zongwen returned to visit the Prime Minister, the person who spoke was Guo Shang, the imperial censor who had been waiting for him for a long time.

"Have not yet congratulated the General on his great joy!" Guo Shang bowed his head.

Xu Zongwen stepped forward and helped Guo Shang up, "Zijin, why do you and I need to be so polite?"

Guo Shang laughed and said: "Isn't it strange that there are so many people?"

"Zijin, I am leaving Xie's Mansion to stay with Ambassador Huan for a few days. Are you willing to accompany me? I still have many things to say to you, and I still have many questions that I need you to help me answer."

Guo Shang looked at Xu Zongwen and said, "I don't dare to ask for my ears despite my wishes!"

"This battle in the general's hand?" Guo Shang noticed the battle in Xu Zongwen's hand and asked curiously.

Xu Zongwen gave up and put his hand to his lips: "I'll tell you in detail when I get back."

Wuyi Lane, Xie Mansion.

Since the beginning of winter, Xie An's body has become heavier and heavier. When he first met Xu Zongwen, he could still walk alone. At the end of the year, he had to rely on his fifth brother Xie Shi for support. After taking a midnight snack at night, he could not move even more.

He could lie on the couch and still talk, but it was obvious that his condition was serious.

The news that Grand Tutor Xie An was sick and lying on his bed spread like wildfire in Jiankang City, and after being exaggerated by some people who were interested, it made it seem like Xie An was about to die!

"It must be someone with ulterior motives who is looking for someone who wants to keep my brother well! If I find out, I will be severely punished!" Xie Shi heard the rumor and became furious, but Xie Xuanyun was calm and calm.

According to the imperial physician's order, Taifu Xie An only occasionally caught wind and cold, and the lung disease recurred, which led to a serious illness. As long as he took good care of himself in the spring, he would be able to walk like the wind in the summer, just like ordinary people.

After the Battle of Feishui, Xie Shi felt that he had made contributions to the court. Coupled with the widespread bribery, his influence in the court suddenly increased a lot, and his temperament changed drastically.

The polite and humble Governor Xie Shi in the past has completely disappeared and transformed into a person who puts personal gain first and is greedy by nature!

When his brother Xie An fell ill, he was worried that the useless nobles would defect to others. He kept calculating the gains and losses, fearing that he would lose something.

"Mr. Lang, General Zhengbei has come to say goodbye." Steward Xie An's footsteps were so light that no one could hear him, and he suddenly appeared behind Xie Xuan.

Xie Xuan rubbed his hands together and took a breath to keep warm. He was startled and said, "Let him wait later, I will go immediately."

"promise!"

After all, he was the one who got out from under his own hands. Xie Xuan had a growing affection for Xu Zongwen. For some reason, the more achievements Xu Zongwen made, the more he felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction!

Xie Xuan did not alert his fifth uncle Xie Shi. If he knew that Xu Zongwen had left his master Xie An when he seemed to be seriously ill, he would inevitably think too much about it and it would not be nice if a quarrel broke out.

In Xie Xuan's heart, Xu Zongwen has long been a member of the Xie family of Chen County. The current Jin court can co-chair the Northern Expedition with him, and the only one who has the ability to complete the great cause of the Northern Expedition is Xu Zongwen.

Xu Zongwen was restless in the hall. His eyes were focused on the door, both covertly and covertly. He knew that he should not leave Xie's Mansion at this delicate time, but Huan Yi's father-in-law invited him and it was hard to refuse his hospitality. He could only

Go to Huanfu.

In fact, when leaving the East Hall of Tai Chi Hall, Emperor Jin once said that he would give Xu Zongwen a mansion in Jiankang, but Xu Zongwen politely declined.

Xu Zongwen's reason was that he was a military general. If there was a war at the border, he would rush to the front at any time, so he could not stay in Jiankang for long. Furthermore, he cared about his mother and wanted to return to his hometown in Jingkou. If it were not for the imminent reorganization of the Forbidden Army,

He had already bid farewell to the emperor.

Therefore, if you buy a mansion in Jiankang, it will sit idle most of the time. It is such a waste of money and it is better not to use it.

Emperor Jin thought that it was really commendable that he became famous at a young age and was able to save himself even though he was in a high position at a young age, so he had high hopes for him!

"Zongwen!" Xie Xuan stepped into the hall and called Xu Zongwen's name.

Xu Zongwen stood up and went to greet him, "Captain! I have to leave today. I really can't shirk it from Lord Huan, so I have no choice but to come and say goodbye. I have been harassing your house for many days. It's really my fault!"

Xie Xuan shook his head and grabbed Xu Zongwen's hand: "I already know, you just need to leave in peace."

"How is Taifu's health?"

"Don't worry, although Taifu is old, his health is not serious. It is expected that he will be fully recovered in more than a month."

"That's good." Xu Zongwen took out his hand and took out a gift note from his sleeve: "This is a small tribute from my subordinate, please accept it!"

Xie Xuan frowned and said, "Zong Wen, why are you so philistine? Why do you need these worldly things?"

"Captain, since you are a human being, how can you avoid vulgarity?" Xu Zongwen meant something, and Xie Xuan stopped talking and opened the gift list in front of him.

Good guy!

Five hundred pieces each of fine silk, silk, silk and satin, gold, silver and jade articles of various colors, more than ten pieces each of coral, wishful thinking, luminous pearls and other treasures, as well as several Buddhist scriptures translated by the master Fotucheng.

This master Fotucheng is famous all over the world. He is from the Western Regions. He was probably born during the Taihe period of Emperor Wei Ming. He became a monk in Wu Chang State. Since then, he has been translating scriptures and preaching. He died in the late Shizhao period and lived nearly 120 years old.

!

This master Fotucheng not only lived a long life, but was also extraordinary. He was good at reciting divine mantras, could manipulate ghosts and gods, see things thousands of miles away, predict good and bad luck, and was good at medicine. He knew everything!

Such a ghost-like existence, the value of the Buddhist scriptures he left behind is immeasurable!

"This is too expensive!" Xie Xuan closed the gift list. He really didn't expect Xu Zongwen to be so generous.

But it makes sense when you think about it. After all, Xu Zongwen fought consecutively and captured so many cities of the Qin State. The treasures in the Qin State's treasury may be piled up like a mountain. Taking out these is nothing to Xu Zongwen?

Xu Zongwen laughed. He only said one sentence before leaving: "Ms. Xie has a great debt to me. These are just a drop in the bucket."

Xu Zongwen's words made Xie Xuan fall into deep thought...

Outside the gate of Huan Mansion, Xu Zongwen and a group of people had just arrived. Huan Yi, his wife Wang, his son Huan Suzhi and a large group of Huan's people were waiting in front of the mansion.

"Zongwen, please let me wait easily!" Huan Yi greeted with a smile.

Seeing such a huge force, how could Xu Zongwen still sit still on the horse? He immediately got off the horse and went to pay homage to Huan Yi and the Huan family.

As the saying goes, an ugly daughter-in-law must always meet her parents-in-law, but this time Xu Zongwen, the prospective son-in-law, had to face the entire family of Huan Mansion...

"My son-in-law has met my father-in-law, my mother-in-law, and my eldest brother!" Xu Zongwen turned around and didn't see Huan Yi's daughter, and his face was a little sad.

"Xu Lang!" Both Wang and Huan Su smiled.

Huan Yi's wife, Wang, has been in Jiankang for a long time. What scenes have she not seen before, and what strange people have she not seen?

This ability to observe words and emotions has long been practiced to perfection!

Therefore, when Mrs. Wang saw Xu Zongwen looking around, she knew that Xu Zongwen must want to see the daughter of her family!

"Xu Lang is looking for Rong'er, right?" Wang covered her lips and snickered.

Only then did Huan Yi react. He clapped his hands and shouted: "This girl is hiding in the boudoir and refuses to come out. Zong Wen, don't mind. I'll let you two meet later."

Wang pulled Huan Yi, who shook his head: "No defense, no defense! His Majesty personally granted the marriage, how could there be any changes in such a big event? Besides, Zong Wen is a talented person, both civil and military, so I will accept this one

Son-in-law!"

Huan Suzhi was secretly sizing up his future sister-in-law, and secretly admired Xu Zongwen when he saw Xu Zongwen's manners and grandeur.

"Dalang, take Zongwen to settle down first." Huan Yi told Huan Suzhi.

"No! Father!"
