There has been constant turmoil in the world recently.
The leader of the Beggar Clan, Qiao Feng, was revealed to be a Khitan. Master Xuanbei of Shaolin Temple, the deputy leader of the Beggar Clan, Ma Dayuan, and other martial arts masters were assassinated successively.
The martial arts used by the mastermind behind the scenes are all the famous secret skills of these martial arts masters.
Therefore, some people suspect that the mastermind behind the scenes is Murong Fu, who is good at "replying others with their own way".
Murong Fu had been wandering between Xixia and the Song Dynasty, hoping to provoke a war between the two countries and look for opportunities to restore the Yan Dynasty.
As a result, when Qiao Feng's incident came out, he wanted to clear his name and prevent the reputation of the Murong family from being damaged.
On the other hand, he is also keenly aware that behind the scenes, there may be a good opportunity to subvert the Jianghu structure, so he has been leading Feng Bo evil, Bao Bubu and others to search for clues.
Now Chen Xuan went to Mantuo Villa to stir up trouble. By coincidence, Murong Fu was not at home yet.
Li Qingluo stared at Chen Xuan with a cold face at first, as if she wanted him to look good.
Unexpectedly, the maid came back to tell her that Murong Fu had not come back, and she was so frightened that her pretty face turned pale.
Now that Chen Xuan came uninvited, it could be said that he came with bad intentions. There were no experts in her Mantuo Villa to protect her, so she was extremely passive for a while.
Fortunately, Chen Xuan saw that Murong Fu did not appear for a long time.
Although he guessed that Murong Fu was not at home, he did not make any move, but said politely.
"Mrs. Wang, since Mr. Murong can't come for the time being, I would like to stay in the mansion for a few days."
"...Okay." Li Qingluo's face was gloomy.
Chen Xuan made it clear that he would not give up until he achieved his goal. Although Li Qingluo did not want him to stay at Mantuo Villa, she could not drive him away for the time being.
At this time, the night was getting darker.
While Li Qingluo sent people to find Murong Fu, she also asked her maid to lead Chen Xuan and the others to stay in the wing.
Although Chen Xuan also had feelings for Li Qingluo, he definitely couldn't deal with Li Qingluo like he did with Gan Baobao, just drag her into the room and clean up the matter.
This Madam Wang of Mantuo Villa was not only the key figure in his subsequent recruitment of Murong Fu, but also an excellent medium for establishing a connection with Li Qiushui in the future.
He must at least look like a person in front of Li Qingluo now.
……………………
A group of four people settled temporarily.
The maid who led the way asked in a crisp voice.
"Master, do you need help arranging other rooms for your female relatives?"
"No need, we live together."
"I don't want to live in the same house with you." Ah Zi crossed her arms over her chest and said angrily.
Chen Xuan stretched out his hand to signal the maid who was leading the way to leave. After there were no outsiders in the room, he looked around and said.
"Let's make do for now. This Mantuo Villa is not a friendly place, and Mrs. Wang is not a simple character either."
"Hmph~"
Ah Zi snorted slightly, saying that she was not very happy, but it could also be seen that Chen Xuan and Mrs. Wang did not seem to be familiar with each other.
Zhong Ling was holding Qin Hongmian in her arms, and had been silent until now.
Now that he entered the house, he finally hurriedly placed Qin Hongmian on the soft couch in the house. Seeing her little face turned red, she was probably extremely embarrassed.
After all, Qin Hongmian is about the same age as her mother, and holding her so whitely in her arms really makes Zhong Ling extremely embarrassed.
If it were normal days, Chen Xuan would probably tease this girl with a playful smile, but at this moment in Mantuo Villa, his expression was uncharacteristically indifferent, with a faint sense of indifference and alienation.
For a moment, if nothing else, the two girls, Zhong Ling and A Zi, had a rare glimpse of another side of him.
The candlelight flickered on the table, and Chen Xuan sat on the Grand Master's chair, thinking gloomily.
Gusu is not as good as Dali. Duan Zhengming is the top master of the Duan family in Dali. He can be evenly matched with Duan Zhengming, so he can naturally be regarded as a first-rate master.
But when he arrived in the land of Suzhou, he would not only have to face Murong Fu, but also very likely to meet Qiao Feng, so naturally he couldn't be too showy.
In the world of reincarnation plots, Chen Xuan has always been cautious. He has never liked to meet the protagonist of the plot head-on until the last moment when the outcome is decided.
While he was thinking like this, before he could think about it for a while, he heard a "hello" sound coming from his ear.
Chen Xuan frowned, turned his head and found Azi right in front of him.
"What are you thinking about?"
"nothing."
Chen Xuan said casually, then thought about it and patted his leg with a smile and said.
"My dear daughter-in-law, come here and sit down. I have something to say to you."
"Bah~ Just wait for me to come over."
Ah Zi's little face twisted, naturally she didn't want to get too close to him.
When she came out of Xingxiu Sea, she had a slight fondness for Chen Xuan. Later, when she went to the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations, she was already a little temperamental when she bumped into Chen Xuan and Baifeng, the sword in his arms.
As a result, Chen Xuan went to Tianlong Temple, returned to the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations, and held Qin Hongmian in his arms all day long.
Fortunately, Azi grew up in the Xingxiu Sect and was used to seeing these evil deeds, so she just felt uncomfortable with Chen Xuan's greedy tricks.
Otherwise, she might have run away long ago.
Chen Xuan was busy dealing with the Duan Zhengchun brothers and had no interest in this girl.
Now that I have come back to my senses, I naturally look for opportunities in various ways to eat her.
"Good girl, seriously, come here and I'll tell you about your mother."
"..."
Ah Zi hesitated for a moment and said she was unhappy, but she curled her lips and walked over angrily.
"what?"
Chen Xuan easily pulled her and held her in his arms.
Ah Zi turned around and was about to take out the poisonous needle to scare him, but Chen Xuan said with a deep expression.
"Did you know you have a sister?"
"Sister? What sister?"
"That's it. Listen to me tell you in detail."
Ah Zi had often been held in his arms before, and she got used to it without even realizing it.
Coupled with Chen Xuan's serious expression, although Ah Zi twisted twice symbolically, he didn't bother much.
"It's a long story..."
"Then you should say so."
"Don't worry, let me ask you, do you know who is the most famous person in the world in recent years?"
"Of course it goes without saying that it's Bei Qiao Feng and Nan Murong. Especially the leader of the Beggar Clan, Qiao Feng, Hero Qiao..."
When Chen Xuan saw Ah Zi talking about Qiao Feng, his eyes seemed to be shining, and he immediately dropped the topic.
"Let's not talk about Qiao Feng for now. Now let me talk to you about Murong Fu, because your mother is related to the Murong family."
"Murong family?"
"good."
Chen Xuan nodded pretending to be profound, but he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He just saw the excited look on Ah Zi's little face, which clearly showed that he was interested in Qiao Feng.
Come to think of it, this girl grew up in Xingxiu Sea, without a father, mother, and no one to rely on. Some of the new things she could hear were the anecdotes of heroes who were chatting with refugees outside the fortress, and the most common among them must be people like Qiao Feng.
