Xu Lingyi was talking to his wife. When he saw Brother Jin coming in, he smiled and said, "I'm talking about you."

Brother Jin was stunned, his heart was beating loudly: What did I say about me?

Before the New Year, people were everywhere buying New Year's goods and returning to their hometowns. After the New Year, people were everywhere going to Beijing to report on their work. There were people everywhere. When there are too many people, it is easy to cause trouble. Xu Lingyi smiled and said, I think you should treat yourself well these days.

At home, firstly, you will spend time with your mother and me, and secondly, practice the boxing set taught to you by Master Pang, which is said to be the most suitable for close combat.

My father's attitude was amiable and his smile was gentle and generous, but for some reason, brother Jin's heart beat faster.

Really? He smiled at Xu Lingyi, and kept telling himself to smile naturally. It was impossible for his father to know the truth of the matter so quickly.

Xu Lingyi smiled and turned around to go into the palace with the Dowager to attend the court meeting: The Queen will issue an edict in the next two days to exempt you from the court meeting. You can also have a good rest on the first day of the new year.

The madam smiled and nodded.

Two days later, Yi's decree was indeed passed on to the palace. Not only did the wife not have to attend court on the first day of the Lunar New Year, but Brother Jin was also allowed to enter the palace.

Xu Lingyi sent some of the most skilled people from the Yongping Marquis Mansion to Brother Jin: Go quickly and come back if you encounter anyone, just pretend you haven’t seen them.

Another sentence that means something.

Brother Jin doesn't dare to say anything more, so he just responds.

Xu Lingyi laughed: You are really honest today. Then without waiting for brother Jin's response, he stood up with a smile and went out.

Brother Jin couldn't help wiping his sweat, thinking that he would enter the palace later. He quickly calmed down his mind and thought seriously about how to speak when he returned to the palace.

Xu Lingyi was leaning on the drunkard's chair in the study, waiting for brother Jin to come back.

As soon as Brother Jin came back, he went to see Xu Lingyi: The eldest princess wanted to see me to discuss Cuju on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year.

Didn't you say anything else? Xu Lingyi looked at him with a smile.

No. Brother Jin hurriedly said, the eldest princess wants to win the game.

Xu Lingyi said indifferently and said, "Go and say hello to your mother and grandmother. They are all worried about you."

That's it

Brother Jin prepared a lot of words, but Xu Lingyi didn't ask a single question. It was like a punch on cotton.

He left the study a little glumly and met Xu Siyu in front of the Chuihua Gate.

Xu Siyu smiled and greeted him: "Sixth brother is back. It's okay to enter the palace. It's like a chance encounter."

Brother Jin perked up and said with a smile: "It's very good. Second brother, where did he go?" he said, and the two of them walked back side by side.

What's going on? Siyu whispered, has the eldest princess agreed to let King Yong help choose the consort?

This is what he cares about most.

Agreed. Brother Jin whispered, not only that, the eldest princess was so angry when she heard about the nephew of the doctor, and decided to tell the Crown Prince about it. She also said that instead of asking King Yong to help, it would be better to let King Yong help.

His Royal Highness, please help.

Why did Xu Siyu become anxious? It was not okay for King Yong to touch someone. He was caring about his sister. But if His Highness the Crown Prince touched someone and the emperor became overly concerned, he would be suspected of wooing the courtiers. As he spoke, his brows were furrowed.

Nadao, it's all my fault that I didn't tell you earlier. Who can I ask to send a message to His Royal Highness now?

Second brother, don't worry. Brother Jin burst out laughing when he saw it. The eldest princess seemed to be reckless and very capable of using her brain. That's why she didn't plan to tell His Highness the Crown Prince directly. She wanted to tell the Crown Princess.

Xu Siyu couldn't help but let out a long breath.

Brother Jin smiled and said: The eldest princess also said that if the Chen family just swallows this breath, forget it. If the Chen family really wants to file a lawsuit, she will ask the Queen to come forward.

Only then did Xu Siyu feel relieved.

The Queen dotes on her nephew. Even if it is unreasonable, what can you do?

After a few days, the Xu Mansion began to give out New Year red envelopes and put up bright red window grilles, making the New Year atmosphere more and more intense.

A man named Gu Yan, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, who claimed to be a close friend of Chen Bozhi, the governor of water transportation, visited Xu Lingyi.

Xu Lingyi was talking to several big shopkeepers at that time. He didn't even raise his head when he heard the words: Chen Bozhi and I are not familiar with each other. If you ask him anything, just leave a name note.

Manager Bai hesitated for a moment, but then he responded respectfully and returned to the flower hall where he was waiting for guests.

One of the big shopkeepers said euphemistically: We are in the rice warehouse in Texas, and we are engaged in water transportation. I was also lucky enough to meet this water transportation governor, and he is a very forthright person.

Xu Lingyi's words came back very straightforwardly: I don't know how many people say that they are so-and-so from so-and-so. Our Xu family has so much business. If I could meet everyone, I wouldn't have to do anything. He said, laughing.

Hehehe glanced at the shopkeepers. If something really happened to Chen Bozhi, he wouldn't come to meet him by himself. I can see that this guy called Gu Yan is just using Chen Bozhi to fight against the autumn wind. I dislike this kind of person the most in my life, so I won't see him.

Somehow this word spread quickly.

Ji Yan was so angry that he lay at home for several days.

Brother Jin's son, Xu Siyu, and others were dumbfounded when they heard this, especially Xu Siyu. In his impression, his father was very considerate. Even if Gu Yan was a man who wanted to fight against the autumn wind, he would not have slapped him in the face directly. No wonder his father already knew about Brother Jin.

If the conflict between Er and Chen Ji is like this, and his father acting like this will inevitably make people feel a little protective, it seems that this is not his father's behavior.

He pondered in his mind that Xu Siqin and Xu Sijian were visiting.

Xu Siyu was surprised and welcomed the two of them to the study.

Xu Sijian walked to the door of the study and saw the ginkgo tree planted by a novice when he was young. He stopped and looked at it for a while before entering the house.

Xu Siqin and Xu Siyu have already spoken.

I heard from Brother Jian that everyone in the Military and Horse Department of the Five Cities was spreading the news that Brother Jin beat the son of the Governor of Water Transport Chen Bozhi to the bed. He looked a little worried. How could such a word be spread?

If there is no misunderstanding, the Governor of Water Transport is a favorite of the emperor. A few days ago, he favored his only son to command the capital.

Yes, Xu Sijian, who had just stepped into the study door, said in a deep voice before Xu Sizhen could speak, "This matter has spread like wildfire. I think I should mention it to my fourth uncle."

There are some things that no one can say.

Xu Siyu smiled bitterly in his heart, but was surprised: Two days ago, Liu Di had a fight with a disciple from out of town and saved a father and daughter who were singing. Could it be that the disciple was Chen Bozhi's son?

Ah, there is such a thing. When Xu Sijian heard this, he became excited and called the maid loudly to go and invite the Sixth Young Master to come and tell him that we had something to do with him.

Xu Siqin looked at it and shook his head: When will your máo disease get better when you are happy?

Isn't this at the second brother's house? Xu Sijian smiled and said, I follow the rules very well outside.

Everyone chatted and laughed for a while, Brother Jin came and asked about the situation at that time. Xu Siyu told the story vividly. Seeing that it was late, he went to say hello to the Tai Madam and the Eleven Niang Wu Madam, brother

A few of them had lunch at Brother Jin's place. Xu Siqin and Xu Sijian headed back home. Brother Jin and Xu Siyu talked for almost an hour before returning to their own houses.

In a few days, rumors began to spread that the son of the Governor of Water Transport, the newly appointed commander of the capital, Qianshi, was beaten by the newly appointed commander of the Xiaoling Weidu, the sixth son of Yongping Marquis, for teasing and singing on the street.

When Yang Yang got up, even Yu Yiqing was startled and came over to ask why he came back.

Just saying that, what happened? I don’t know that Xu Lingyi met Yu Yiqing in the small study, and no one from the Chen family came to say anything to me. I think it is mostly rumors. Even if it is true, we will do

Elder, why are you so embarrassed to get involved in the affairs of the younger generation? Then he smiled and said, you have worked hard on the rivers in the south of the Yangtze River in the past few years. It is rare for us to get together, so I let the eleventh mother prepare a banquet, and we chat while drinking.

If it's something, just don't worry about it.

Yu Yiqing thought that since he became the minister of the Ministry of Industry, Xu Lingyi and he rarely got together to drink and chat. He smiled and agreed, and got very drunk. When he went back, the boy helped him to the carriage.

As soon as his front legs left, his back legs came over.

I heard that someone from the Metropolitan Procuratorate wrote an article to impeach the Marquis, saying that the Marquis had failed to teach his son well, and that his youngest son Xu Sijin was tyrannical in Yanjing. He even dared to fight against the emperor's newly appointed commanders. He was so audacious and arrogant that he asked the emperor to punish the marquis.

Ye and Xu Sijin.

Xu Siyu's face changed slightly.

He knew that this was no longer something he could handle.

Xu Siyu took Fang Yi to meet Xu Lingyi.

Things are unclear if you don't argue. After thanking Fang Yi, Xu Lingyi smiled and said, it is always beneficial to argue.

From the sound of it, he and the other party are going to have a chat in front of the emperor.

Fang Yi felt relieved and chatted with Xu Lingyi before leaving.

Within a few days, there were more and more memorials to impeach Xu Lingyi and Brother Jin, but Xu Lingyi didn't respond at all. Fang Yi couldn't help but secretly worry, and asked Xu Siyu: Do you know what the Marquis has planned?

Xu Siyu shook his head: I wanted to talk to my father several times, but was interrupted by his words. He was also a little distressed and didn't know how his father arranged it.

In this case, it's hard to ask.

Fang Yi had no choice but to return home and wait and see how the situation would change.

Some people said that the emperor was furious after hearing this and wanted to seize Xu Lingyi's iron certificate; others said that the emperor said that the Chinese New Year was coming soon, and if anything happened, we would wait until after the new year; some said that the emperor wanted to deal with Xu Lingyi and his son, and as a result, the generals in the army were

He wrote a letter to plead for Xu Lingyi. The emperor was very embarrassed and decided not to pursue the matter anymore.

The words finally reached Eleven Niang’s ears.

Brother Jin really beat someone up. She asked Xu Lingyi suspiciously, or maybe someone wanted to frame the Marquis for injustice.

After all, Chen Bozhi is a third-rank official in the imperial court and the emperor's favorite. If our brother Jin really beats someone up, why don't you come to our house to ask for an explanation? Xu Lingyi said with a smile, as for trapping me in injustice, it's still not right now

There is no evidence, we need to investigate carefully to find out.

Eleven Niang became worried: Do you want me to go into the palace to check out the Queen’s tone?

No need, Xu Lingyi said with a smile, if you enter the palace at this time, you won't have three hundred taels of silver here. Let's just spend our New Year well. I have my own arrangements for this matter. You don't have to worry. He smiled and praised her again.

face, stroking the corners of her eyes with his thumbs, didn’t you say yesterday that women tend to age easily? Look, you have fine lines on the corners of your face.

Really, Eleven Niang immediately found a target scope and went outside to look under the eaves.

Under the sun, nothing can be seen

She knew she was being teased by Xu Lingyi again.

I couldn't help but laugh.
