"Ah." Both Mr. Wan and Wan He were shocked. Wan He suddenly shouted bad luck in his heart. Wan He's mother had died a long time ago in this era. He had not contacted his parents' family for a long time. He didn't expect that it would be so difficult today. Someone came, but something like this happened. But Mr. Wan exclaimed with a sad look on his face: "I didn't expect Brother Fang to take the first step. Alas."
Ah. Wan He looked at the old man in surprise. I bet this old man knew his uncle whom he had never met before. Then why didn’t he ever hear the old man mention this relative? Oops. What happened to the old man? Sure enough, there are many secrets.
The cousin also said with a sad face: "My nephew didn't expect that my aunt has passed away. Alas, if my mother finds out about this, it will be another blow."
Hearing his cousin mention Wan He's mother, the old man's face became more and more sad. He touched the corners of his eyes with his hand and sighed. Finally he said to his cousin: "Okay. My nephew, there is no need to be too sad. That's right. . I heard that my nephew was promoted to Jinshi at that time. He only resigned from his official position to serve your father. Now that Brother Fang has passed away, what plans does my nephew have?"
Regarding the old man's question, my cousin seemed to have known about it for a long time. He immediately replied: "My late father has just passed away. My nephew is not ready to become an official yet. He plans to observe filial piety at home first. Besides, my mother is not in good health. She needs someone to take care of her at home. This time my nephew comes to Luoyang. In addition to visiting my uncle on my mother's orders, I also have some old friends of my late father to visit. I just need to bother my uncle for a few months."
"Hey, they are all members of our own family. How can we talk about it?" The old man waved his hand and said, "As long as you don't mind that my uncle's family is a merchant's family, that's all. Well, Wan He, you give orders to your servants. Cleaned up a yard for your cousin. It was well taken care of."
If it were an ordinary guest, Mr. Wan would naturally ask his servants to prepare it. But after all, they were relatives at home, so the old man left it to Wan He. Then the old man said to his cousin: "You can stay here. Next, if you need anything, just ask. Alas, brother Fang has passed away. I am also very sad, so I won’t entertain you personally."
After hearing this, my cousin immediately stood up and bowed to the old man. He said, "Uncle, just go and rest. My nephew is fine. If anything happens, I will naturally discuss it with my cousin."
"Yeah." Perhaps it was Wan He's outstanding performance during this period that made Mr. Wan trust Wan He a lot. So Mr. Wan didn't say anything more. He nodded, just used his cane and left slowly. hall.
After the old man left, Wan He also relaxed a lot. He turned his head, smiled at his cousin, and said, "I haven't asked for advice yet. Please give me your first name."
Only then did the cousin react. He immediately said to Wan He: "Oh, I forgot. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. My surname is Fang. My last name is only Qiao. My father gave me the name Xuanling. There is an age difference between you and me. Not big. If my cousin doesn't mind, you can just call me by my cousin."
"The last name is Fang. Xuanling. Uh." Wan He muttered to himself. Suddenly he was stunned. He turned his head and looked at his cousin with a strange face. In addition to excitement, there was also a trace of excitement and expectation in his eyes. This The look made his cousin's back shiver and he felt uncomfortable all over. But Wan He didn't realize that he was rude at all. He couldn't help but exclaimed in his heart: "Mommy. Fang Xuanling. Fang Xuanling. Fang Xuan." Ling is my young master's cousin. This joke must be too big."
Although Wan He didn't know much about history, he often heard the story of the old men in the alley telling stories about Fang Mou Du Duan. He was one of the first-class talents under Li Shimin. Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui . As famous as Changsun Wuji. They are both Li Shimin's right-hand men. They specifically advise Li Shimin. Although Changsun Wuji is now by Wan He's side, Fang Xuanling suddenly appeared. He is also his cousin. This makes Wan He. How could He not be overjoyed?
Wan He was happy here. But Fang Xuanling, who was stared at by Wan He with such strange eyes, was not so happy. If Fang Xuanling came from the 21st century like Wan He, it would definitely work. There is one word to describe Wan He, and that is gay. But in this era, there are similar words to describe Wan He's behavior. Fang Xuanling secretly muttered in her heart: "Could it be that this cousin... he likes men's style. "
I didn’t know that Fang Xuanling had already classified herself as someone like Long Yangjun. Wan He said to Fang Xuanling very enthusiastically: "It turns out to be Xuanling’s cousin. My younger brother Wan He has heard about my cousin for a long time. Today. It’s such a blessing to see dignity.”
Wan He's words were not exaggerated. Wan He had often heard Fang Xuanling's stories in the past. But these words fell into Fang Xuanling's ears. But it became more and more wrong. Fang Xuanling's eyes towards Wan He also became weirder. He Jingjing laughed and said: "Uh, cousin, you're too polite. By the way, I don't know where the small courtyard my uncle mentioned is. I've been traveling all the way from Linzi, but I'm tired. I want to rest early."
"Oh. Yes. Yes." Wan He nodded repeatedly. Now he regarded Fang Xuanling as his treasure. Cheng Yaojin who is now beside Wan He is a brute force. Li Jing is certainly good at marching and fighting. But The struggle for power in this officialdom is not his strong point. The same goes for Changsun Heng'an. These people are all good at fighting. Although there is Changsun Wuji, but looking at this boy's attitude, Wan He doesn't think he can be trusted. So if Fang Xuan can be Ling was fooled, so Wan He can at least feel more at ease. So when he heard Fang Xuanling say that he wanted to rest, Wan He immediately said enthusiastically: "Brother, I will take care of this for my cousin. Come here. Clean up the small courtyard next to my yard."
Originally, Wan He wanted to express his closeness to Fang Xuanling. But he didn't expect that when he said these words, Fang Xuanling behind him immediately shuddered. He was even more convinced that Wan He's hobbies were different from ordinary men. Immediately, Fang Xuanling hurriedly shook his head and waved his hands and said: "Ah, cousin, there is no need for this. There is no need for this. Just a remote courtyard is enough. It's quiet for my brother."
"Hey, cousin, don't worry." Wan He turned around and put his arm around Fang Xuanling's shoulders. He smiled and said, "My yard is notoriously quiet. My cousin lives there. I promise. No one can disturb you. My little brother will arrange it for you. Just don’t worry." As he said that, Wan He didn't forget to pat his chest, which was not very strong.
Now Fang Xuanling was really thinking about crying. But it was too late to change what she just said. And Wan He's arm was put on her shoulders. Fang Xuanling immediately felt goosebumps all over her body. The knots jumped up. I had already accepted my fate in my heart. I secretly made up my mind. If Wan He did anything wrong to me tonight, I would rather die than obey.
It's a good thing that Wan He doesn't know how to read minds. Otherwise, let him know what Fang Xuanling is thinking now. I don't even care whether Fang Xuanling is a future great strategist. A brick will blow his brain. .
There were so many servants in the Wan family. A small courtyard was quickly tidied up. During this period, Wan He was also actively communicating with Fang Xuanling. However, Fang Xuanling was interested. Queque always seemed to want to avoid Wan He. However, when Wan He showed Fang Xuanling's attentiveness and invited him to go shopping on East Street, a famous brothel street in Luoyang City, Fang Xuanling finally understood that she had misunderstood. The conversation with Wan He returned to normal.
With filial piety, it was naturally impossible for Fang Xuanling to go to such places. However, Wan He was not discouraged. He introduced Fang Xuanling to his eldest grandson brother and others. This time, it was Fang Xuanling's turn to be surprised. Because the two Changsun brothers, both older and younger, are first-class figures. Especially Changsun Wuji. Although he is much younger than Fang Xuanling, when they meet, there is a feeling of meeting their opponents. For a time, Wanhe's small courtyard became a place for Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji to compete in literary talent. As for what the two of them were talking about, Wanhe, Changsun Heng'an and Cheng Yaojin immediately became blind. They listened completely. don't know.
The two argued extremely fiercely. At this time, Li Jing also hurriedly came back. When he returned to Wanhe's yard, he suddenly saw an unknown person in the yard. Li Jing couldn't help being stunned. However, Wanhe came first. Asked: "Brother Li, what did that little pervert Yang Tong say?"
"His Royal Highness the King of Yue was surprised and very angry." Regarding Wan He calling the dignified King of Yue a little pervert in private, Li Jing was used to it. He simply pretended not to hear it and continued: "According to His Highness the King of Yue's wishes. This matter must be pursued. Also, His Royal Highness the King of Yue would like to ask you what you mean. Could this assassination be the fault of the Li family?"
"Uh." Wan He was stunned for a moment, but he soon understood the meaning of Yang Tong's question. The incident with Li Xuanba last time also made Yang Tong become the opposite of Li Yuan. Since he is an opponent, of course he is. We must attack the opponent at all costs. Now that Wan He has been assassinated, regardless of whether it was done by someone sent by Li Yuan or not, this is a matter that can make a big fuss for Yang Tong. This matter should be directly blamed on Li Yuan. .Even if the Li family cannot be brought down, it can still cause the Li family to bleed. Although this approach is a bit shameless, it is a very good method.
Wan He was a little hesitant. It was not that he had an excessive sense of justice and refused to do this, but that he already knew that the assassin this time had nothing to do with Li Yuan. If he fell on Li Yuan's head like this, what would happen in the future? After finding out the truth, will he be implicated in any way? After all, Wan He is still a little afraid of the name of the Li family. After all, they are the family that created the prosperous Tang Dynasty. They are all huge names in history. It was enough to make Wan He breathless.
Wan He told Li Jing his concerns. Li Jing smiled, narrowed his eyes and said, "Brother Wan, your worries are completely unnecessary. For this matter, we only need to tell others that we don't know. Of course, someone will take care of everything, and even if something happens in the future, it won't involve you."
