Hearing Xu Xun's words without looking back, Shen Yue couldn't help but be startled. He actually forgot to close the curtains and just lowered his head to look at the men's green cloth shirt with the right lapel collar and the black cloth on his body. She was already accustomed to changing her clothes like this every time she went out. She had forgotten that if she were not the Miss Shen family, she would not have to be so sneaky when going out.
When she came to her senses, she looked up again, only to see that Xu Xun had followed the strange man in front of her. The two of them got on the ordinary carriage opposite one after another. However, the carriage had just started to get up slowly. Okay, five or six people came out of nowhere from all around. She was startled and just leaned out, and saw that these people who came out were guarding the car tightly like followers. Not only that, as the carriage got further and further away, more and more people joined the retinue. In the end, there were at least a dozen or twenty people surrounding the ordinary carriage.
"Is there some big shot in that car? But didn't the people from Duke Wei's mansion just leave first... What happened in the Xu Family Ancestral Hall just now? Why didn't the godmother come out?"
After waiting in the car for a long time, Shen Yue's eyes blurred, and then she found that Li Qingniang had quickly got into the car. Li Qingniang, who was sitting firmly, had no time to explain anything, so she first asked the coachman to leave quickly, and when the carriage gradually began to move, After setting off, she calmed down the tormented mood she had just suffered, and told Shen Yue what had just happened in the simplest language. She saw that the little girl's face was sometimes angry, sometimes surprised, sometimes stunned, sometimes admiring, and finally There was undisguised joy in her eyes, and she couldn't help but put her hand on the soft shoulder.
"Miss, he solved his troubles, got rid of the Xu family, and the engagement with the Shen family must be just as he said to the master, he really didn't care about it. He had such scheming at a young age, and brought the Xu family to Those relatives and elders, as well as Zhao Gui, are all playing around in everything. This kind of man is too ambitious, you'd better not see him again in the future!"
"My godmother also thinks that he has been prepared for this and deliberately sang this big show?"
There was still a trace of joy on Shen Yue's face, but she asked an irrelevant question. Before Li Qingniang could answer, she laughed, but only the right side of her cheek showed a single cute dimple: "I knew, yesterday He also talked about deceiving people, playing tricks, and deceiving people. Sure enough, he had already prepared it. He is the best at pretending to be honest in front of others and making mistakes behind others. If he had known better, he would not have had to come here to see it. It would be a waste of worry. Already."
Seeing that her young lady didn't listen to her advice at all, Li Qingniang felt unspeakably upset. After thinking about it, she had to deliberately change the topic and said: "By the way, Miss Wan, Manager Wan of Duke Wei's Mansion gave him a gift today. I wrote a post saying that I wanted to commend him for his good deeds. If we can follow this path, wouldn't the master not have to be held hostage by the Zhao family?"
"Huh?" Shen Yue, who had come back to his senses, frowned again, and after a while he shook his head, "This method won't work. He is giving everything he has, and if the Shen family has too many trees, it will attract people. Remember, if you have too few, you will not be noticeable at all. Besides, as you said, godmother, it is obvious that he has the support of Eunuch Fu. Otherwise, how could Wei Guogong give such face? Alas, he has passed this test, and our Shen family’s affairs have not yet This is the result. Godmother, while Zhao Qin has suffered a loss and has no time to care about him, go to Jurong and find out what is the connection between our house and the land in his house, and see if you can find out by the way. Zhao Qin’s bad deeds. I will try my grandmother again later to see if I can find out anything more. In short, I will never let the Zhao family’s forced marriage succeed..."
Shen Yue gave this series of instructions in rapid succession. At this moment, Shen Yue's eyes were flashing with a frightening light, as if Xu Xun's success had aroused her competitive spirit, but she was thinking about another incident in her heart. , a smile actually appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Since he is so cunning, it is always okay to ask him for advice next time? She has tipped off the news so many times, so this is a small reward.
***************************
Xu Xun was in a good mood after bidding farewell to the little girl. However, after Chen Lu stepped on the stirrup and got into the carriage, he lowered his head and got into the carriage. He saw Fu Rong sitting in the middle, who seemed to be smiling but not smiling. He quickly lowered his head He wanted to salute with his head, but by chance, his head suddenly hit the roof of the car with a bang.
"Okay, okay, sit down. I'm in a hurry after seeing our family. Zhu Laosan, who moved out of the Nancheng Army and Horses Division, and the Wei Guogong's Mansion to support you, repeated his old tricks and asked your servant to act in the ancestral hall. Where did it go? Where did the momentum of asking the elders in that ancestral hall go? Where did the pride of squandering the family wealth go?" Seeing Xu Xun lowering his head after hearing the words, Fu Rong sneered again, "Besides, in front of so many people Where is the courage to use our name to support you?"
Seeing that Xu Xun sat down uncomfortably, he snorted softly and said: "If our family doesn't recognize you today, let's see how you end up today! That little guy named Ruisheng has only been with you for a few days, and you will So indifferent! I’m sure you’re right but you don’t know it. With our family protecting you, you can definitely achieve your goal and pass this level, so why do you have to protect him?”
Facing Fu Rong's sharp gaze, Xu Xun was silent for a long time, and then he said: "Return to the father-in-law, boy... I just can't bear it. Although he has a father, he doesn't have one, and he is in the same situation as the boy. The boy has not been taken care of by his father since he was a child. Although he did not spend much time with him, he still regarded him as a family member and could not just watch him die. The boy knew that he had failed his father-in-law and knew that he deserved death for speaking nonsense this time. It’s up to the father-in-law to handle it.”
Xu Xun did not raise his head, as if he could not notice the expression of the experienced man in front of him. However, Chen Lu, who was sitting opposite him, could clearly see Fu Rong's worried expression. Even though It was him who suffered a lot in his family when he was young; the experience of being cold-eyed and bullied was also unforgettable. Although he could remain calm at the moment, his mood was agitated and difficult to calm down.
"He has only been with you for a few days, and he is disabled. You don't look down on him, but still treat him as a family member?"
"That was his father's fault, and he didn't do it willingly! Besides, even if he was willing, he was forced to take this path just to make a living. If the world laughs at the poor but not at prostitution, why should they laugh at them! Also, Even I don’t know about such private things, and they are not Jin Yiwei, where did they find out? It’s too much to bully someone!”
Fu Rong is no better than Chen Zusheng. After he became rich, he did not find any family members because he was resold at different levels. It can be said that he was lucky to be able to enter the palace in the end, so the heir raised under his knees had no blood relationship with him. Therefore, although he had already passed that age At an age where people and themselves are easily impressed, Xu Xun was able to take advantage of others' plans and completely ruin other people's plans. However, when it was Rui Sheng's turn, he exposed the flaw and even used it for the first time. With that famous red card, he sent Chen Lu to show up almost without thinking. At this moment, seeing Xu Xun raising his head and looking at him so calmly, he finally couldn't help but laugh.
"Good boy, I dare to say it...but it's well said!"
With this comment, Xu Xun knew that he had truly passed this test. Castrating a fireman was certainly a serious crime, but who was Fu Rong? For him, this trivial matter could be easily and skillfully smoothed over.
He had several ways to solve Ruisheng's matter, but he chose the most dangerous path, which was to win over Fu Rong to express his stance. In order to win over Fu Rong and other middle-ranking officials, Zhao Qinna and other Qingliu were already incompatible with each other! More
What's more, Fu Rong will definitely be wary of how those people can find out such secrets!
So, when Fu Rong asked him about Rui Sheng's situation, he knew everything, but he didn't elaborate on the little guy's benefits. He only vividly described Rui Sheng's stubbornness, loyalty, and acceptance of death, and actually made Fu Rong's story vivid.
Rong laughed out loud.
"Like a master, like a servant, this is really an interesting little guy! It's just..." Fu Rong paused, his face condensed slightly, and then he looked at Xu Xun and said, "It's just a pity. Loyalty is good.
, being stubborn or stubborn is not the most important thing to get ahead in the palace, the first important thing is to adapt to changes. With his temperament, when he gets there, he may not even have any bones left..."
Fu Rong paid attention to Xu Xun's expression as he spoke, and saw that he suddenly showed worry and anxiety, and his hands seemed to grasp the wooden stool unconsciously, and then he said slowly: "If he could have the ability to adapt to changes like you,
, then don’t worry. Xu Xun, do you want to go to the capital and have a look?"
"think."
Although he knew that Fu Rong's words had more than one meaning, Xu Xun still seemed to answer such a word without thinking. He knew that the next words were of great importance, so he immediately said with a smile: "Uncle Xu said to me
He had mentioned the capital, but he said that he had left the capital at a very young age and could hardly remember the alleys. The only thing he remembered was the willow trees and gardens by the Shicha Sea. When he was drunk, he also said that he had been rich in the past, saying that at that time the three
A large house with four entrances and one hundred and eighty rooms...it seems so vivid and real..."
Rather than saying that it was Xu Liang's autobiography, it was better to say that it was Huitong's narration to him. Xu Xun's words were extremely natural, and Fu Rong had already inquired about Xu Liang's details in detail.
The tone of his voice made him even more hesitant.
It is better for a lieutenant to rely on ability than to rely on chance. Xu Liang is very likely to get the hereditary earl in front of him, and the chance of sending this boy to the palace is really very different. The boy in front of him will be moved at the first moment of information.
If he can rely on this relationship to get in, and with his deep love for protecting Na Ruisheng, he will definitely not throw away his support. And if he takes that route, maybe this kid hates himself secretly without telling it.
For the rest of his life. Besides, he was inseparable from Nanjing. Xu Liang had a rough and rough temper, so it was not easy to go to Beijing to seek a title.
Therefore, he had no doubt about him and suddenly asked: "You broke out of the house today and used your father as a cover. Aren't you afraid that your father will come back suddenly and expose your shenanigans?"
"Even if my father comes back, he will definitely understand my difficulties if he knows that the people in the clan are so oppressive."
