Fang Xiaoru left in anger, and the marriage between the two families naturally fell through.
Xia Xun has already determined this ending. After Xu Ming'er climbed up to the Shengqi Tower and Xiaoru made some cynicism, it was an inevitable ending. Moreover, other forms of alliances between the Fang and Xu families were also blocked.
dead.
Fang Xiaoru is a character who would rather bend than bend. He is not a character who can endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens for the sake of the overall situation. Moreover, this person has always been so burdened. Although he needs the support of the Zhongshan Palace now, in his heart, once the alliance is formed, the support he will give to the Zhongshan Palace will be far away.
If it was more than what he could get, then how could he accept such humiliation?
What's more, the civil and military officials present brought together the forces of various factions in the court. No matter how fiercely they fought in the court, they could not be rude in matters such as weddings and funerals. There was no need to completely break up.
, so they are all here today. Now that they have the opportunity to use the young princess's refusal to marry to destroy the alliance between Fang Xiaoru and the Zhongshan Palace, they are not fools. Each of them is far more experienced and knowledgeable in official circles than people like Xia Xun.
Seize the opportunity, will they let it go?
As expected, these old-timers in the officialdom seized the opportunity and immediately used various methods that appeared to be persuasive but were actually adding fuel to the fire, and successfully provoked Fang Xiaoru away. In today's words, Fang Xiaoru was a teacher who had been teaching for half his life.
I am a professor at a municipal university who still teaches classical literature and has been doing research among old papers.
Who are these officials? They have been in the officialdom for half their lives. They have been able to get through under Zhu Yuanzhang, a stubborn old man who does not rub dirt in his eyes. Who is not a human spirit? If we talk about playing tricks and playing tricks, Fang Xiaoru is
He couldn't compete with them. So they just refused to persuade him. The more he persuaded Fang Xiaoru, the angrier he became. He couldn't stay for a moment and left immediately.
Mu En was there, listening to something here, saying something there, piecemeal together, but he also understood what was going on. Seeing that the gift could not be sent, Mu En hurriedly called to the four palace guards.
He said hello and took the things back.
In a short time, through the mouths of the civil and military officials, their servants, and even every carriage driver and sedan chair bearer who dispersed in a flurry, the incident that happened at Shengqi Tower quickly spread throughout the city of Jinling.
When Luo Kedi heard about this, he just smiled slightly. He was also happy to see the result of destroying the Fang-Xu alliance. He felt that such a result was very good. But then when the person monitoring Xu Zengshou came to report Xu Zengshou's actions, by the way,
Here comes a piece of news: the young princess has not returned to the Zhongshan Palace, and Wei Guogong is in the Shengqi Tower to greet guests from all over the place, but he does not know the news yet.
The person in charge of monitoring Xu Zengshou was Ye An, and it was he who sent back the news. Luo Kedi was just startled when he heard the news, and did not think deeply about it. He just asked casually: "Presumably, she also knows that she will be punished by her brother after she returns.
As punishment, he went to live in the homes of relatives and friends?"
Ye An said: "The princess came out of the Shengqi Tower and got on a carriage. Judging from its appearance, it did not look like the carriage of the Prince of Zhongshan. There were no servants accompanying it. She felt strange because she saw that Governor Xu was still winning.
On the chess floor, I didn’t expect him to leave for a while, so I asked two people to follow him.”
Luo Ke was speechless: "What's the result?"
Ye An took a breath and said: "As a result, the car went through the streets and alleys. It seemed that many people had been there to help us, and many methods were used to escape tracking. Our people...actually lost us."
Luo Kedi's eyebrows raised slightly: "Oh! You actually lost me?"
There are many ways to escape tracking of a car, such as deliberately walking into a narrow alley that only allows one car to pass, and being prepared in advance. As soon as the car here exits, another car will immediately drive in from the opposite side, deliberately blocking the car.
If the person behind you is unable to follow the alley, it only takes a moment to track the target and the target will be lost.
There are many similar methods, and Luo Kedi didn't ask in detail. The problem is that the people he sent are by no means easy to deal with. Their tracking and anti-tracking methods are very clever, but they can also be lost. So what the other party did
The power involved in preparation cannot be ignored. Not only must there be huge power, but the person must also be an outsider in this industry.
Ye An said: "Yes, I lost him. When they caught up again, they saw seven or eight identical cars, driving in different directions. In desperation, they stopped one each, and after questioning,
They are all buses from 'Ping An Automobile Dealers'."
"Then Ping An Automobile Dealers..."
"I went to investigate in my humble position. Someone rented a total of ten cars with a false identity. The clues were lost and the investigation could not be continued."
Luo Kedi was silent for a moment, Xu Ming'er moved away from home, it doesn't matter! It's just that the youngest children of a noble family are at odds with their family members, but Xu Ming'er also has an eldest brother-in-law, who is the all-powerful His Highness King Yan.
Contact, I'm afraid his actions on the Shengqi Tower were not that simple.
After she refused to marry in public at the Shengqi Tower and destroyed the alliance between the Zhongshan Palace and Fang Xiaoru's family, so many people were used to help her escape. Even the spies of Jin Yiwei were able to escape...
Luo Kedi stood up and walked around for a while, his eyes gradually became sharper. He stood up and said slowly: "The secret agent of the King of Yan! The secret agent of the King of Yan must be responsible for this. We will immediately concentrate our efforts to investigate her whereabouts. Maybe we can find her whereabouts."
We found in her the person we have been trying to catch but couldn’t!”
As soon as he said this, Chen Dong rushed over breathlessly to report: "Sir, the envoys from Shanhou Kingdom are about to leave the capital. Meng Shilang is arranging vehicles to escort them out of the city."
"Um?"
Luo Kedi's heart began to churn anxiously: "Xu Miaojin destroyed the marriage between the Xu family and the Fang family, and then he was picked up and cleverly escaped. Then the Shanhou Kingdom envoy left Beijing, and not long before, Xu Miaojin went to Honglu Temple
I have met the prince of the Queen of Mountains, and from this point of view..."
Luo Kedi's eyes lit up and he blurted out: "Quick, intercept the Shanhou Kingdom mission immediately!"

Going up to the square gate, a group of cars slowly exited the city gate.
Meng Fusheng sat in the car and smiled at He Tianyang beside him: "Meng and the prince have been getting along very happily for the past few months. Today the prince returns to the country, and Meng is a little reluctant to leave."
He Tianyang said: "The same goes for little Wang. Thanks to Mr. He's constant care, in a few years, Tianyang will definitely come to pay homage to the country again, and I will still have a chance to meet you."
As he spoke, a jade pendant was already slipped down his sleeve.
"It's a small country, an isolated land overseas, and there really isn't much to offer. When Xiao Wang returned home this time, he specially bought many gifts at the "Golden Jade Square" in the city, planning to present them to his father, the queen, and his relatives and friends when he returned.
This square jade pendant is very gorgeous, so I bought it and give it to this adult today as a small gift to express my gratitude to you."
"Oh my! Prince, you can't do this. It is my duty to entertain the prince. How can I accept the prince's gift of thanks?"
He Tianyang said sternly: "I have no other intention with this thing. I just hope that Master Meng will miss people when he sees things, remember the friendship between you and me, and remember that there is a friend Xiao Wang in foreign lands overseas. If you refuse, you will be rejecting Xiao Wang."
The king is so affectionate, please accept it!"
"This... this..., since the prince said so, it is inconvenient for me to refuse. Thank you very much for the gift, I feel sorry for you."
When the jade pendant was handed to his hand, it shimmered slightly, and it was pure white and translucent. It was indeed a piece of beautiful jade, and its texture was crystal clear, which could be called the best. When he took hold of the heavy jade, he felt even more warm to the touch.
Slippery, Meng Fusheng rubbed the jade pendant twice with his thumb in his sleeve, feeling its delicate texture, and thought to himself: "It is really a top-quality jade. With this texture, it must be a Khotan mutton-fat jade.
Gold is valuable but jade is priceless, this is a priceless treasure!"
Thinking in his heart, his sleeves drooped down, and the square mutton-fat jade pendant slipped into the bag. Meng Fusheng squeezed it again, and then he felt at ease. When he talked with He Tianyang again, he really felt a little reluctant.
Reluctant to give up.
"Stop! Stop! Stop and check!"
As soon as the car left the Shangfang Gate and before it reached the Shili Changting Pavilion, several officers came up to greet him with swords drawn.
The officers and soldiers escorting Honglu Temple reined in their horses and said angrily: "Did you blind your dog eyes and not see that this is the driver of Honglu Temple?"
The inspector said, neither humble nor arrogant: "I'm sorry, but I am only acting under orders despite my humble position. I ask my colleagues at Honglu Temple to be considerate."
Meng Fusheng frowned, stood up and walked out of the sedan, walked to that station, and shouted majestically: "What's the matter?"
"It's them, it's them, who abducted my daughter, my daughter..."
An old man with a white beard staggered up, beating his chest and stamping his feet, howling and crying.
A group of men with swords and guns gathered around them. Judging from their clothes, they must be servants of Yingtian Mansion. Among them was an official wearing a push official uniform. Among these people, he had the highest rank, so he should be theirs.
The boss.
It seems that this official is only in his thirties. Although he is only a fifth-rank official, he is responsible for local security, investigation and investigation under the emperor's feet. The number of police officers under his command is greater than the number of police officers in the provincial government office in other places.
There are still many, so the authority is extremely strong. When meeting Meng Shilang, a third-grade official, he did not appear embarrassed or panicked. He just cupped his hands and said to Meng Fusheng: "Your Majesty, please, this commoner reported to me that someone was driving this car."
His daughter has been abducted. As part of my duty, I have no choice but to investigate. I would like to ask you to make it easier for me to send someone to search her."
"What a nonsense!"
Meng Shilang waved his sleeves and said angrily: "This is the envoy of the Shanhou Kingdom, who came to pay homage to the emperor of our country. Today he returned to the country, and I escorted him away according to the order of the emperor. You Yingtian Mansion dares to come and investigate. This crime of neglecting foreign envoys, you
Can you afford it?”
Unexpectedly, the recommendation of the official seemed to have a "strong command" attitude. He was not afraid and said loudly: "The lower official is in charge of the punishment of a government and maintains the security of the capital. Regardless of princes, ministers, civil and military officials, if anything is illegal, the lower official will take charge of it."
Yes! There are suffering people here today. Just because they are foreign envoys, why can't the lower officials investigate? The lower officials are responsible for their duties. Please don't make it difficult for the lower officials. Please allow the lower officials to search them. If you are in the car,
If they really hid the women of the people, then I will take them all back and hand them over to Lord Fu Yin. If the charges are not true, I will just kowtow to you, Lord, and apologize."
"You are brave!"
Shilang Meng was responsible for his duties, so how could he be allowed to search the vehicles of foreign envoys? Besides, he had short hands and had just collected a fine jade pendant from someone else, so how could he ignore the matter? Just as he was about to scold him again, He Tianyang walked out of the car.
He said with a smile: "Being magnanimous, he is naturally upright and upright. The little king understands the desire to protect you. If he wants to investigate, let him investigate."
Meng Fusheng glanced at him worriedly and said hesitantly: "Prince..."
He Tianyang smiled and said: "Don't worry, sir. Although Xiao Wang is from a small foreign country, he is also familiar with the culture of the great country. How can he do such an illegal thing?"
Meng Fusheng waved his hand and asked the escorting officers and soldiers from Honglu Temple to step aside. The officer held his knife and led the complaining old man with a white beard to carefully inspect each car one by one. During this inspection, their cars
When you get on and off the car, you have to check everything inside and outside. You are not willing to miss a place where you can hide people. You even have to tap and knock on the compartment walls and pedals to see if there is any mezzanine.
More than a dozen carts were all searched, and all the servants and maids were lined up on the ground. The old man looked carefully at them one by one, but the old man's daughter was still not found. The old man blinked, a little confused.
Authentic: "That's right, the neighbor's idiot said that the old man's daughter was taken away by such a group of cars. Why is there no one there?"
"You bastard! If you accuse a foreign envoy, I will punish you severely when I get back!"
The official was furious and scolded the old man for a few times. Then he turned to Meng Fusheng and said with a smile: "My lord, you are so reckless as a subordinate, please look back..."
Meng Fusheng smiled coldly and said: "Look back, I will go to Yingtian Mansion to meet your governor, Mr. Wang Hongrui, and ask him how Mr. Wang disciplines his subordinates! Humph! Let's go!"
With a wave of his hand, the motorcade drove away.
Watching the motorcade go away, the old man with a white beard tore off his beard, and it turned out to be Chen Dongqiao. He looked at Ye An, who was pretending to be a promoter, and said with a wry smile: "What should we do now?"
Ye An shook his head and said dejectedly: "Go back and report to your lord truthfully."
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
At the same time, at the Chaoyang Gate of Jinling City, people were queuing up to leave the city.
"How high is the city gate? Thirty-six feet high. Ride a white horse, bring a knife, and walk under the city gate..."
Children on the street clapped their hands and sang children's songs, happy and carefree.
People who are about to enter the city go to the left passage to undergo inspection and pay the city entry tax. People leaving the city go to the right passage and the inspection is much looser than those entering the city.
"For what?"
The veteran who called out was a native of Jinling, his name was Cui Lala. He was in his early forties and had not yet mentioned a wife, so it was not that he was guarding the city very strictly, but he was very angry when he saw someone leaving the city with a young girl and a young wife.
I came up to him enthusiastically, but in fact I was just looking for an opportunity to strike up a conversation.
There was a man in front of him with a beard, probably in his early thirties, dressed in coarse cloth, and carrying two diabolo baskets. The important thing is that he also brought with him a little village girl, with her hair in a double bun, a Jingpin cloth skirt, and beautiful features.
Although she seemed to be suffering from jaundice, her pretty little face was actually ginger, but it did not affect the beauty of her facial features at all.
Seeing the soldier guarding the city making a rough voice and looking at her like knives, the little village girl timidly grabbed the man's lapel and called softly: "Uncle..." It was exactly like that.
She looks like a little country girl who has never seen the world.
The man nodded and bowed and said with a smile: "Master Jun, I went to the city to sell a few ducks, and I am about to go back."
The soldier guarding the door looked at them up and down, and then at the empty bamboo basket. There were still a few duck feathers in it. He really couldn't find any reason to keep anyone alive, so he stopped his gun and waved his hand: "Go, go, go..."
The two of them quickly walked out.
"Uncle, that military commander is so fierce..."
The little village girl shouted timidly, but there was a naughty smile in her big, smart eyes, as if she found it very interesting.
The man carrying the bamboo basket was like any honest countryman who didn't want to cause trouble. He just kept his head down and walked forward, casually scolding: "Don't talk nonsense. If you are naughty again, my uncle won't take you to the city to play next time."
From behind, Cui Lala stared greedily at the little girl's swaying, alluring waist like a willow blowing in the wind, licked her lips, smiled lustfully, and said in the local dialect: "This little Panxi, she's quite good-looking.
Quite impressive..."
After leaving the city gate, the man carrying the basket quickened his pace. The little village girl ran and jumped behind to keep up with his pace. The little girl put her hands on her hips and gasped: "Yang Xu, you
Slow down, I'm exhausted and I can't keep up!"
"Call uncle!"
Xia Xun glanced around alertly, seeing no one around, and then gave her a fierce look. This little village girl was naturally Xu Ming'er. Xia Xun didn't ask her to dress up as a boy. She had no experience. If she forced her to pretend to be
As a man, it would be easy for her to reveal her secrets, so I just dressed her up as a rustic little village girl and changed her skin color and hairstyle.
Xu Ming'er curled her lips and chanted in a long voice: "Uncle..., why don't you walk slower, others won't be able to keep up with you."
"Do you want me to carry you?"
"Okay, okay!"
“What a beautiful thought!”
"whispering sound!"
"Hurry up. There is a car ahead to meet you. Once you get in the car, I will take you to the riverside and board the boat immediately to go to sea."
"Are you going to that island? Are you going?"
"I won't go. I still have big things to do in Jinling and I have to come back."
"Then I won't leave, and you will go with me."
"That's unreasonable!"
Xia Xun was annoyed: "That's not what you said when I promised to rescue you. I promised you well, why did you change your mind again?"
Xu Ming'er said confidently: "I didn't know at the time that you didn't want to go with me. The last time you left me at Xie's house, I didn't have any acquaintances. It was like I was in prison there. Otherwise, you could send me there.
When I meet my sister in Peking, the worst I can do is not show my face again or reveal my name. I guess the news won’t get out and it won’t affect our Xu family.”
"Don't be ridiculous. I've gone through all the trouble to arrange for you to go to sea. Now there's a war in the north. There's no peace along the way. It's too difficult to send you all the way to Peiping. If you go by sea, it's winter again."
, the wind is blowing from the northeast, not to mention the difficulty of traveling by sea, your body and bones may not be able to withstand the hardships along the way."
"Then I will follow you. If nothing happens to you, I will be safe. If something happens to you, I will still be safe. What can big brother do to me? Hee hee, I might be asked to save you by then.
"
"You..., let me tell you, if you want to follow me, you can only pretend to be a village girl, keep pretending to be a village girl, have no good clothes to wear, no good food to eat, sleep on a big earthen kang, live in a thatched house, and...
"
"Okay, okay, I like this. I've never tried it before. It's really fun..."
Xia Xun's threats were ineffective, so he had no choice but to bury his head in the road.
Xu Ming'er crossed her waist again and started trotting: "Yang Xu, walk slower, you can't catch up. Uncle! Uncle~Uncle~~, uncle..."
