Chapter 185: The British Mansion Gives Prizes

Everyone at the scene seemed to have been pricked by needles, and they turned their eyes in unison, and each eyeball was half larger than usual. What? What?! This mysterious little miracle doctor has another name, and it turned out to be a commotion for half of Jiangnan.

"Brother Zhongluo, you're making a big joke, don't forget, the Marquise is still here, it's his sister-in-law. Zuo Dongxu was a little anxious. He couldn't help this very background figure from Nanjing, so he moved the marquise out.

"What about the Marquise? When the Duchess of Huiguo still comes to verify this matter, is it possible that the Duchess of Chengguo still has to listen to the orders of the Marquise?" Xu Zhongluo laughed disapprerovingly, feeling that he had already won the battle.

"I see that you think too much, under the surname Xu Mingming, can the Duchess of Guo change my name? Brother Zhongluo, you framed me like this, just for that little money? Speaking of which, we are also considered our own family, if I change your name casually, are you willing?" and said lightly, carefully putting the crystal brush back on the pen holder.

Besides, when he said this, Xu Zhongluo's face was a little ugly, and he avoided the conversation in a sneer.

The matter has come to this, and it seems that the Duchess of the British Mansion is the initiator of this gathering, the Fengyang Prefect is just adhering to her will, and the Zuo family is acting according to orders. He just didn't understand, if just to verify whether he was the case, let the Fengyang prefect invite him to the prefect's yamen, why bother to hold this party so much?

This is one, and the other is what the British government is looking for.

It is said that at the level of the national duke, there is nothing to ask for in the mortal dust, especially the hereditary dukes such as the Zhongshan Royal Mansion and the British Duke, who are born as dukes and die as kings with different surnames, which is already the ultimate honor of human ministers. Although the prince was given after death, the ancients valued the official title most when they died, the so-called coffin closure.

For example, the Zhongshan Palace, because Xu Da was awarded the Zhongshan King after his death, and then the Xu family became the Zhongshan Palace, and even the imperial court called it that. Mu Wangfu in Yunnan, Shizhen, is actually just a marquis, and he didn't even get the title of Duke of Guo, just because Mu Ying is Zhu Yuanzhang's righteous son, and Mu Ying was too sad because of the death of Queen Gao.

Later, this matter also sparked a big debate in the imperial court. The positive side pointed out that Mu Wangfu was originally a marquis' mansion, and should not use the royal system fraudulently, and must correct the name, and should no longer use the title of Mu Wangfu; the opposite side believes that Mu Wangfu has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in Yunnan, and the chiefs of those indigenous tribes only know Mu Wangfu, and do not know that there is a court, and they only obey the orders of Mu Wangfu. If the title is changed, those chiefs may be at a loss, and Yunnan will inevitably be in chaos.

What the emperor is most afraid of is the chaos on the border, especially in Yunnan, a place where the natives gather, when Lanyu recovered Yunnan, it was a lot of hardship, and he couldn't give up his achievements because of a title. Therefore, the emperor decided that the title of Mu Wangfu would remain unchanged, but the system of marquis must be adhered to in the recital to the imperial court, and no encroachment should be made.

The nobles are like this, and the officials are even more so, they all take the gift of the court after death as a lifelong official title, and it doesn't matter what officials have done before, this is the lifelong conclusion, it is related to family honor, and it must be written in the epitaph.

In an aristocratic family, they have everything about power, money, and color pursued by ordinary people, and as for imperial power, of course they don't dare to expect extravagance, and it is a big rebellion to even think about it. Other than that, there is little they want but can't get.

"Brother Xu Ming misunderstood, how can this be said to be a frame-up. Besides, he is missing, and finding this talented man is already the common wish of Jiangnan Shilin. I think if you were to do it, wouldn't everyone be happy?" Xu Zhongluo pondered for a long time, and finally found a reason.

"But I'm not, and I don't want to touch his light, so what do you mean by insisting that I say yes?"

Besides, I don't care if my identity is recognized, it's not a matter of time or time, but maybe it's just a matter of time and a half. He responded like this to test whether he could find a breakthrough in the secret of his life experience from Xu Zhongluo.

Since Xu Zhongluo said that he had a big secret hidden in his body, it should mean the secret of his life experience, and besides that, he really couldn't think of any ulterior secrets he had.

"That's it, Brother Zhongluo, the joke is not like this, if Brother Zhongluo is really short of silver, my left family will serve it with both hands. "Zuo Dongxu has been blinded, and he can't think of a better way to help him.

Although Zuo Dongxu is not familiar with him, he knows his importance to the Zuo family, if there is a conflict with Xu Zhongluo in the Zuo family, it is very likely to cause a conflict between the Wucheng Houfu and the British Mansion, it will be a real disaster, the Zuo family can't afford the responsibility of the middleman at all, and is destined to be thrown to pieces in the meantime.

Xu Zhongluo is his old acquaintance, this time he came to Zuo's house in the name of visiting him, not to mention the possible catastrophe in the future, that is, just to conflict with the situation, he may have to be dealt with by the family law, the name is very simple: careless friends.

"Brother Dongxu, you misunderstood. Xu Zhongluo hurriedly said with a smile.

"What kind of misunderstanding?" Zuo Dongxu said coldly.

"Brother Zhongluo, how can you say that you are also a guest of the Zuo family, you are staring at Brother Xu Ming inexplicably, it is really unreasonable. If you want to say that you misunderstood, it won't be our young master. A housekeeper of the Zuo family was angry and said.

"That's it, Xu Zhongluo, I think your visit to Dongxu is fake, and the harboring evil intentions are true, and the Zuo family doesn't have friends like you. The voice of the other butler was less polite.

"Xu Zhongluo, your actions have offended the Zuo family, Fengyang Mansion, and Marquis Mansion all of a sudden, even if you really have any origins, be careful not to get out of the Fengyang Realm. These words came from the mouth of a dart master in the Zhenwu Dart Bureau, and it was already a direct threat.

"Look, I said that you misunderstood, and you still don't admit it, can you listen to me first?" Xu Zhongluo was also a little anxious.

The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, Xu Zhongluo will not understand this truth, even if he has a background, now he is on other people's territory, in case someone else has a murderous intention, it is easy to make him disappear silently.

"Okay, then please make it clear, what did we misunderstand you?" and it felt like it had been going around for a long time, and it was finally time to get to the point.

Originally, Xu Zhongluo suspected it or decided that it was nothing, and his identity might be destined to be revealed today. It doesn't matter, anyway, even if his identity is not revealed here, when he returns to Suzhou, his identity can no longer be hidden.

To put it bluntly, the purpose of concealing his identity is nothing more than to be afraid that those who are chasing and killing him will come to hear the news, and now that those people have come, and it is very likely that they are outside, what else does he have to worry about.

However, he was happy to put pressure on Xu Zhongluo, hoping to force him to reveal his secrets.

It's enough to say that it's wronged.,It's hard to cross over.,Top such an identity.,It's actually really good.,Not to mention anything else.,Just by getting a peerless medical skill.,It's equivalent to winning the lottery and winning the grand prize.,Literary and artistic literacy has also improved a lot.。 However, there are also some great secrets on his body, which attract people to chase and kill everywhere, and the people who chase and kill are stronger than the other.

Elephants die from ivory, musk deer die from musk, and people mostly die from bosom. If a person has a great secret, it is equivalent to a sin, and this truth is naturally understood, this secret is the sword of Damocles hanging over his head, and he may fall down and cut off his head at any time.

He has been stranded in Fengyang, just to find a way to see the royal secret file, to find out the secret hidden in his life experience, although even if he understands it, he can't change anything, but he can always understand why he was hunted down, even if he dies, he can be a ghost.

"You really misunderstood me, I have absolutely no ill will towards Brother Xu Ming. Xu Zhongluo explained.

"Brother Zhongluo, I'll listen to you. Zuo Dongxu's face was not good, and he followed up.

Xu Zhongluo's hostility towards the situation is obvious, and the conflict between the two may break out at any time. Even if he is open-minded and unwilling to care, besides, the people behind him don't rub sand in their eyes.

"Actually, I searched everywhere for my brother's whereabouts, and I was also entrusted by others, not for the sake of rewarding silver. Of course, it's also a good thing to have a silver reward. After saying the first half of the sentence, Xu Zhongluo felt that he was too hypocritical, and hurriedly added.

"Forget it, isn't it still for 10,000 taels of silver?" someone scoffed.

"Even if I'm greedy for rewards, it doesn't mean that I have malicious intentions towards Brother Besides, let alone Brother Xu Ming. In addition to the British Mansion, there are also Master Lian Daning Lian of Suzhou Mansion, Chen Zhengjun, Old Master Chen, and the Imperial Merchant Zhou Family, so we can't say that these people have malicious intentions towards Brother Xu Ming, right?

Besides, he smiled faintly: "Brother Zhongluo, there is no need to blame Dongwu, it is you, not me, who need to explain." I won't overstep my bounds, and I will ask Brother Dongxu to be a witness on my behalf. ”

That is, Brother Xu Ming has no obligation to explain this. Zuo Dongxu said.

"Well, as far as I know, that brother is the head of the case taken by Master Lian Daning Lian, and he is the proud protégé of Lord Lian, so Lord Lian's self-sacrifice is definitely good, in the same way, that brother is also the proud protégé of Chen Zhengjun and Old Master Chen, so Old Master Chen is also looking for a protégé, and it is definitely good. As for the two sons of the imperial merchant Zhou family, they are all close friends of the elder brother, and their Zhou family is undoubtedly kind. Xu Zhongluo said as he spoke, suddenly stopped, and he found that he had encountered an unexplainable problem.

"Please explain that all three of them have good intentions, and why is the British government?" he asked.

"This ...... I don't know. Xu Zhongluo's heart suddenly became weak.

"If you don't know, you want to send us away? Brother Zhongluo, are you playing us like children?"

"This ...... I don't really know ......."
