As the Moon Rabbit took off, thousands of lights lit up. Although there were no neon lights flashing in the previous life, red lights were lit in front of every house on both sides of the street, and the lights illuminated the entire city for a while.
"It seems that Mr. Su's return this time has a big impact!" Zhao Xun couldn't help but sigh as he saw all kinds of sedan chairs parked in front of the Su Mansion. When Zhao Xun and Butler Su rushed back to the Su Mansion, they had already
It got dark, and then I saw this scene.
"Yes! There are usually so many people coming to visit there!" Butler Su also shook his head and sighed.
"Master Zhao! Master Zhao!" A rough voice sounded from beside Zhao Xun.
Zhao Xun turned around and saw a rough man in his mid-thirties, calling him with a flattering smile. But Zhao Xun didn't recognize him.
"Master Zhao must not know this master. This is the commander of Wu Qu who is in the same camp as you. After the master was assassinated, he never came to our house!" Butler Su introduced to Zhao Xun with a touch of sarcasm.
.
Zhao Xun knew as soon as he heard that this guy was Su Yun's subordinate. After Su Yun was assassinated, he kept far away and seemed to be leaning towards Sima Yun. No wonder Butler Su didn't have a good look on him. However, Zhao Xun
I still understand him. After all, it is a way to protect himself if he loses his backer. Besides, he did not betray Su Yun directly.
Wu Tong smiled and said: "I am a rough man. I have offended many people in the past. Don't blame me, Steward Su. This is a little thought from me. I ask Steward Su to forgive me for my mistakes." After saying this, he handed Steward Su a cash box ticket number, and Zhao
I scanned it and saw that it was five thousand taels, and I couldn't help but be surprised by Wu Tong's handwriting.
"I'd like to trouble Mr. Zhao to say a few kind words for me in front of Mr. Su. It's just a small thing, but it's not respectful!" He then handed Zhao Xun a ticket number. This ticket number was similar to the banknotes in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. They were issued according to status.
, some can be withdrawn directly. And those given to two people can directly collect the money according to the ticket number.
Zhao Xun didn't mind having a lot of money, so he would naturally take what he got. Besides, this Wu Tong was the person that he and Su Yun needed to win over. He would say good things even if he didn't give money. If he could get the money for free, he wouldn't give it up.
Seeing that Zhao Xun accepted the money, Butler Su did not refuse. Then he put away the impatient expression on his face and said with a faint smile: "Since Mr. Wu has said so, I don't care about the past anymore.
.Master Wu, please!”
"Steward Su, Master Zhao, please!"
"Look, the guy who beat Sima Qi and didn't take the captain seriously is here!" Seeing Zhao Xun enter the hall, people from all walks of life who were communicating with each other were stunned, and then someone
Said softly.
"Really? He seems to be a pretty quiet young man. He's not as vicious as you said. You can't admit his mistake." Some people didn't believe it.
"Yes, it was him. I was in a nearby restaurant at the time. I saw it with my own eyes and I will never admit it."
When Zhao Xun heard these people's comments, he smiled bitterly and touched his nose, but he didn't care.
"Sir Zhao, I'm waiting for you in the study. Let's go over there first. As for the comments of these people, you don't need to take it to heart at all." Steward Su said to Zhao Xun with a smile.
As soon as Zhao Xun entered Su Yun's study, in addition to seeing books, calligraphy and paintings all over the room, what struck his eyes were two girls who looked no more than seventeen years old, with icy muscles and jade bones, and thin eyebrows like a distant mountain.
Qingdai picked out a moving arc, with starry eyes, a beautiful nose, and a sandalwood mouth, which were as crystal clear as fireworks.
There was a faint blush on her crystal clear face. One of them with a slightly yellow complexion was Li Ruolan, whom Zhao Xun knew. Although he didn't know the other one, Zhao Xun guessed that it was Su Yun's daughter. There was another one beside Su Yun.
The woman who looks like she is in her thirties must be Su Yun's wife.
When he saw Zhao Xun come in and see the two women, he was slightly startled, but then his face became pale and he couldn't help but look at Zhao Xungao again.
"Come on, Zhao Xun, let me introduce it to you. You already know this. You don't need to explain this one. You know that she is Li Ruolan who came with you. Now that she has changed into women's clothes, you are a little surprised.
"
Zhao Xun said with a smile: "I am indeed a little surprised, it is very different from before!"
Su Yun smiled slightly and said: "The one next to Li Ruolan is my daughter, Su Ran, and it was you who helped me get out of trouble today. Come on, Ran'er, come here. I wrote about Brother Zhao's help. If it weren't for Zhao Xun today, I'm afraid you wouldn't be in trouble."
Small."
Su Ran came to Zhao Xun, said with a slight smile: "Ran'er, thank you Brother Zhao for your righteous action!"
Zhao Xun quickly replied: "Miss Su, there is no need to be polite. As Mr. Su's subordinate, Zhao should be like this when encountering these things!"
Su Ran rolled his round eyes, smiled slyly, and said: "So, what Brother Zhao means is that if he were not my father's subordinate, he would not take care of it today?"
"Um..." Zhao Xun did not expect that Su Ran would ask this question and said lightly: "Maybe, maybe not!"
At this time, even Su Yun and Mrs. Su were shocked by Zhao Xun's answer. They did not expect Zhao Xun to be so direct, saying in front of the other party that he would not help the other party, no, he should save the other party.
"Brother Zhao, how can you say that?" Li Ruolan reminded Zhao Xun quickly when she heard that Zhao Xun's answer was indeed not good, and saw that both Su Yun and Mrs. Su were stunned.
Zhao Xun looked at Su Ran's sly smile and couldn't help but feel amused. Hearing Li Ruolan's slightly concerned question, he said lightly: "If Master Su hadn't been behind my back, I would have fought without hesitation today.
Cut off Sima Qi's leg? Maybe as soon as Sima Qi was repaired, a few hundred of us would immediately become rebels, and they would be immediately suppressed in Yanzhou City. There are definitely not a few people who want to deal with Sima Qi, so why wouldn't anyone dare?
do?me
I did this today not because Miss Su is Miss Su, but I would have done it for anyone else, because I am not afraid. I have the military commander Su behind me and more than a thousand soldiers who dare to fight beside me. Please forgive me.
I speak directly, because I am the leader of thousands of people, and I have to be responsible for thousands of people. However, even if Mr. Su is not here, I will help the lady, but it will be a lot of trouble. Ms. Su is satisfied with my answer
?”
"Humph!" Su Ran turned around and returned to Li Ruolan, no longer looking at Zhao Xun's evil smile.
When Li Ruolan heard that Zhao Xun had not changed his words, she glared at him angrily, and quickly said to Su Yun and Mrs. Su beside him: "Zhao Xun is a straight-tempered man. I hope Mr. Su can forgive me."
Su Yun waved his hand and said: "Zhao Xun is right. From his position, you should consider this. Only in this way can you achieve long-term success. Well, Zhao Xun, you and I are not outsiders. You have saved my life.
Don't be too polite, just treat this place as your own home. Besides, I also need your help. What do you think we should do now? These people outside didn't come to help me when I was in trouble. Now I'm back
Yes, they all gathered around."
"Okay, Zhao Xun has gone too far. I think you should meet Wu Tong now. Although he stayed away from the Su Mansion after your assassination, this was his way of protecting himself, and it is not a betrayal. Besides,
, we are isolated and helpless in Yanzhou City, and if we gather one part, it is only one part. If we are strong, the enemy will be weak. The stronger we are, the more afraid Sima Yun and others will be, and they will not dare to take action against us."
Su Yun nodded and said: "What you said makes sense. I will meet with that Wu Tong in a moment. If he is willing to turn around, I don't mind his past affairs. If not, then I will have to get rid of him."
"Don't worry, sir. I think this Wu Tong is going to turn to your side." As he said that, Zhao Xun explained what he had done today.
Su Yun touched his chin and said happily: "You are really powerful. You can shock that Wu Tong with just a few words. However, if he is still a faggot, then follow your instructions and get rid of him."
"You said you want to build a Uburg outside the city?"
"Yes, I plan to buy fertile land outside the city and build a Wubao. Isn't that what the landlords in Youzhou do now? With the Wubao, we can be horns with Yanzhou City and support each other.
, and at the same time, soldiers can be recruited and their families can be settled there.”
"Since you have this idea, go ahead and do it boldly. I will give my full support."
"Sir, I think we need to take over the guarding rights of the west gate of Yanzhou to prevent us from being trapped and killed in the city in case of an emergency. Don't forget, your assassination is related to Mohe."
When Su Yun heard this, his face suddenly became serious: "Why is this Sima Yun colluding with Mohe? Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Let's go to the banquet together so that we can meet these upper-class people in Yanzhou."
Zhao Xun smiled bitterly and said, "I'd better forget it. People outside are calling me a bad guy who does all kinds of evil. If I go, I won't be liked by anyone."
Su Yun burst into laughter and said: "That's fine, let Ran'er and Miss Li accompany you around the house, and then have something to eat in the backyard."
After saying that, he and Mrs. Su went out, seemingly relieved that Zhao Xun was staying with his daughter.
"Hey, I didn't expect you to be so cold-blooded! You actually said you wouldn't save me until you die!" Su Ran said angrily after her parents left.
Zhao Xun stopped looking at the study and said calmly: "Miss Su, firstly, I don't call you Hey, you can call me Zhao Xun. Secondly, I am not ruthless. Compared with Miss Su,
The safety of more than a thousand people is more important. If Miss Su is dissatisfied with my statement, then there is nothing I can do."
"Sister Su, don't blame him. What he said makes sense." Li Ruolan quickly explained for Zhao Xun.
Su Ran looked at Li Ruolan with a smile. Li Ruolan, who kept looking at her, blushed and asked, "Sister Su, what are you looking at?"
Su Ran smiled and said: "I'm talking about him, why are you trying to explain it? Are you guys?"
Li Ruolan's face turned redder and she pretended to be angry: "Sister Su, what did you say? I hope there won't be any misunderstanding between you. After all...after all, he helped you once, and he was also your father's helper!"
"Okay, okay, I'm just saying this, I think you're in a hurry!" Su Ranjiao said with a smile.
"Let's go, Brother Zhao, let me take you to look around the house. Don't call me Miss Su anymore. Just call me Ran'er. Didn't my father say that you will treat this place as yours from now on?"
