"Brother, it's getting late now, why not go tomorrow?" Xu Jing said.
As soon as these words came out, Xu Shao's face immediately darkened and he asked: "Tomorrow? Are you going to apologize in public? Do you want the Xu family's face anymore?"
Forehead……
"Brother, you are thoughtful." Xu Jing suddenly realized and said with cupped hands.
Afterwards, he lit three servants on fire, took a gift of apology, walked out of the house, and took a boat to Pingyu County.
The night was getting dark, and when Brother Xu Shao arrived at the county military camp, Xiao Wenshang was resting in the military camp, listening to Zhao Yun talking to Ma Chao about the day's events with a calm expression.
Not long after, a soldier came in and said that two gentlemen from the Xu family were visiting.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yun's face immediately darkened.
But he could guess that those two people came to apologize.
After all, the misunderstanding during the day was no longer a misunderstanding. It could only be said that the two celebrities had a high opinion of themselves and made random accusations without understanding the reasons.
But the truth of such a thing can be revealed with just a little investigation.
Now, when these two people come to visit, what else is it but an apology?
However, even if it is an apology, it should be done during the day and apologized at night. Where is the sincerity?
Zhao Yun snorted coldly, if he was the one who made the decision in this matter, he would definitely have those two rotten scholars kicked out!
"Bring them in."
Xiao Wen, who was resting with his eyes closed, opened his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, showed a slight smile, and spoke aloud.
The soldier received the order and turned around to leave, but went to invite the two gentlemen in.
On the side, Zhao Yun raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and the look between his eyebrows looked quite surprised.
Just let them in like this?
Wouldn't this be too cheap for them?
"Lord, so..."
As soon as Zhao Yung opened his mouth, Xiao Wen shook his head and chuckled, saying: "General, if you look at it from now on, the good show is yet to come."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yun immediately shut up, but did not say anything else.
Not long after, two brothers, Xu Shao and Xu Jing, came over with a look of shame on their faces.
As soon as they entered the hall, they saw these two celebrities bowing their hands and bowing to Xiao Wen.
"The common man Xu Shao (Xu Jing) pays homage to General Fenwei."
The long voice echoed in the hall and floated into Xiao Wen's ears.
Xiao Wen had no expression on his face and was sneering in his heart.
Common people?
General?
These two gentlemen are quite good at word games.
"Two sages, please come quickly. I am a vulgar person who does not know etiquette. I am a wild and rebellious person who does not know how to advance or retreat. How can I be treated by two great sages of the world? Such courtesy is absolutely impossible!"
Xiao Wen said, with a hint of sarcasm in his words.
These words fell in the ears of the two people, but they instantly blushed with shame.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and his face looked a little ugly.
But the two men clenched their fists and opened their mouths to say something, but in the end nothing came out.
He stood up and saw Xu Shao take a step forward and said:
"What happened today is that I wrongly blamed the general. I feel extremely sorry and have trouble sleeping and eating. I came here with my brother to apologize!"
Xu Shao's words were sincere, but his attitude was enough.
It was this attitude that fell in Xiao Wen's eyes, making Xiao Wen's mouth slightly raise.
The scene in front of him was not unfamiliar to him.
After all, he already knew what Mr. Xu's temper was like.
It is precisely because of his pedantic character that he accepts death when doing things.
When he knows he is wrong, he is wrong and there will be no denying it.
And when such a person admits his mistake, his attitude is also extremely sincere!
"Sir, you're serious. It's just a small misunderstanding. Let's clear it up. Things like this don't just happen once or twice anyway, right?"
Xiao Wen asked back, his long and leisurely voice falling into Er Xu's ears, immediately causing the two people to fall into silence.
"What does the general want to do?" Xu Shao raised his head, his eyes fell on Xiao Wen, and asked.
"In this matter, both of us are victims. The Yuan family is the one who really planned all this."
"The Yuan family of Runan is a powerful family, and it can be said that it covers the sky with one hand in the land of Runan!"
"Even the emperor cannot interfere in this matter."
"Today, they dare to plot against the imperial officials and generals with official titles. Will they dare to plot against the emperor tomorrow? Separate one side and become a prince?"
Xiao Wen's voice suddenly became passionate, and his eyes were staring forward, looking at Er Xu.
Er Xu fell into silence.
"What does the general want to do?" Xu Shao asked in a low voice.
Taken the bait!
Xiao Wen's eyes narrowed slightly, a light flashed in his eyes, and he was about to reply when he saw soldiers outside the door coming quickly, followed by a grey-faced servant.
"Sir, this is a servant of Xu Mansion. I have something urgent to ask for!" the soldier knelt down on one knee and said.
Urgent?
The light in Xiao Wen's eyes dimmed and he turned to look at Xu Shao aside.
Then Xu Shao turned around and looked at the servant with the same doubtful expression.
"Ding San? Why are you here?"
"Uncle, Second Master, something bad has happened! Someone broke into the Xu Mansion at night, burned, killed and looted! I came here to report the news!" Ding San cried in a tearful voice.
As soon as these words came out, the faces of brothers Xu Shao and Xu Jing changed drastically.
Forced into Xu Mansion?
Burning, killing and looting?
Who did it?
Could it be...
Xu Shao looked back and his eyes fell on Xiao Wen.
But then he gave up such thoughts.
Although this general does not know etiquette, he is not a despicable person!
"General, there are important things at home, and it is urgent for me and the two of you to go back, so I'll say goodbye!"
After saying that, the two people turned around and left.
"Two gentlemen, wait a moment, I, the general, will go back with you."
"Zhao Yun, Ma Chao!"
"The end will be here." The second general responded.
"Assemble five hundred fine cavalry to leave the city, and another five hundred fine cavalry to cooperate with the city guards to guard Pingyu County and close the city gate to prevent thieves from seizing the city!"
"I will rush to Qinghe Island with the two gentlemen first, and you two will follow."
Xiao Wen's face darkened slightly and he whispered.
There was a little anger in this low voice.
Mudd!
My uncle's plan was just about to come true when something like this happened?
Someone made a surprise attack on Xu Mansion?
This kind of thing never happened in my previous life.
All I can say is that I relived my life and chose a different trajectory, and even things developed differently.
However, this kind of person who dares to ruin my good deeds must be chopped into meat paste to satisfy the hatred in my heart!
Hearing this, Er Xu did not reject Xiao Wen's kindness and immediately took Xiao Wen to Qinghe Island.
At the same time, Ma Chao and Zhao Yun were not idle either. They summoned a group of soldiers to guard at various city gates.
On the other side, when Xiao Wen and Er Xu took a boat to Qinghe Island, even though they were far apart, they could still hear the light of fire filling the sky, lighting up the entire sky red.
Seeing this, the look on Er Xu's face was extremely ugly!
