"My lord, another wicked man is gone!"

Just when Xia Xiyan was still thinking about Xuan Ci, an officer and soldier ran to the prefect of Suzhou and reported a message to him.

"Gone? How could it be gone? The prefect of Suzhou raised his eyes to look at the platform on the field, and sure enough, he found that except for a pile of white bones with cranes hanging on it, there was really no trace of the crocodile god of the South China Sea.

Xia Xiyan also found that there was no South China Sea crocodile god on the platform who had been subdued by Gongye Qian and Fengbo before, and only saw a ball of thread on the platform.

"Old lady, someone used internal strength to shoot the rope that tied the crocodile god of the South China Sea."

Deng Baichuan went to the platform to check under Xia Xiyan's instructions, and found that the rope that was binding the South China Sea Crocodile God before was broken by someone with internal strength.

"Old lady, the incision of this rope is very complete, I'm afraid only the one yang finger of the Dali Duan clan can do it!"

Deng Baichuan thought about the explanation, which made Xia Xiyan frown, she actually heard Deng Baichuan say that the rope was broken with internal strength, so she immediately guessed that the South China Sea Crocodile God was rescued by Duan Yanqing.

Deng Baichuan suddenly added a sentence that pointed to an obvious meaning, which made Xia Xiyan a little displeased, Deng Baichuan directly said 'Dali Duan', it seemed to be saying to Xia Xiyan, but it was specially said to the prefect of Suzhou. directly pointed out that it was a yang finger of the Duan clan in Dali, which was properly hating Dali.

"Dali Duan's!? A yang finger? ”

Sure enough, after listening to Deng Baichuan's explanation, the prefect of Suzhou immediately asked Xia Xiyan, "Mrs. Murong, can you be sure that the one who rescued that wicked man was from the Dali Duan clan?" If so, is Dali a small country going to challenge my Great Song Dynasty? How dare you come to rob my Great Song Dynasty!"

The prefect of Suzhou is optimistic about the execution, and he can actually make a few robberies of the law field, and he is also a little angry, Xuan Ci rescued Ye Erniang, he is already ready to ask Shaolin for an explanation, and the South China Sea crocodile god also fled, if it is the Dali royal family who will make Yiyang who saves him, then he still has to report this matter to the imperial court, and the Dali royal family came to rob the law field of the Great Song Dynasty, which can rise to the problem of relations between the two countries.

Xia Xiyan saw that the prefect of Suzhou mentioned that Dali's face was a little unsightly, and he knew that he had listened to Deng Baichuan's words, so he immediately said, "The person who rescued the crocodile god of the South China Sea this time is probably the only one of the four evildoers who has not been caught. ”

Xia Xiyan's words were to directly say Duan Yanqing, who rescued the crocodile god of the South China Sea, and at the same time, it was also to exonerate the entire Duan clan in Dali, which was to eliminate the words that Deng Baichuan deliberately said to provoke the relationship between the Great Song Dynasty and Dali Kingdom, and did not want Deng Baichuan's words to cause trouble to Dali Kingdom.

"That evil spree is full of chasing and killing the Dali royal family in the rivers and lakes? Then this time to save the South China Sea Crocodile God, deliberately using exercises similar to a yang finger, it won't be to bring disaster to the east! The prefect of Suzhou grasped the key point in Xia Xiyan's words, pondered, and then spoke when he figured out something, "Thank you Mrs. Murong for your suggestion, I will report this matter to the court and let the court make a decision!" ”

Xia Xiyan heard what the prefect of Suzhou said, and he breathed a sigh of relief for Dali, and at the same time saw that Ye Erniang and the South China Sea crocodile god were rescued, and the subsequent execution could not be carried out, so he got up and said goodbye to the prefect of Suzhou, who was also about to rush back to the government to write a report to the imperial court.

"Mrs. Murong go slowly!" The prefect of Suzhou sent Xia Xiyan away, and left in an official sedan chair.

When Xia Xiyan turned around and took Deng Baichuan and the others back to Swallow Dock, the face that had been smiling completely became completely gloomy, so that the four generals who had planned to say anything to Xia Xiyan were silent and obediently followed back.

And Xia Xiyan returned to Yanziwu, and only four generals were left behind, and Murong Fu, who came back early, was called, and Deng Baichuan was named by name.

"Deng Baichuan, you are confused today! So clumsily said that it was the Dali Duan clan who rescued the crocodile god of the South China Sea, in order to provoke the relationship between Dali and the Great Song Dynasty, do you think others can't hear it? If I hadn't remedied it later, would you know that if the prefect of Suzhou reported this matter to the imperial court, they would go to the Dali Duan clan to ask for an explanation, and the Dali Duan clan only needed to clarify their relationship with Duan Yanqing, if you deliberately misled today, you would directly let the Murong family offend the Dali Kingdom, and you might also be suspicious of the Da Song Dynasty who knew the inside story from the Dali Kingdom! ”

"Old lady, I was reckless! I just thought that the old master had been running around to provoke disputes among countries, and today I saw that Yanqing took advantage of the time when we were chasing Ye Erniang, and secretly rescued the crocodile god of the South China Sea with a yang finger, and I thought about splashing this sewage on the entire Dali country, but I didn't think about what happened after that! Deng Baichuan heard Xia Xiyan talk about him directly, and he was still a little dissatisfied and ready to argue with Xia Xiyan that he was for the good of the Murong family's restoration of the country, and then listened to Xia Xiyan directly point out the stakes during the period, and immediately knelt down to admit his mistake to Xia Xiyan.

Xia Xiyan saw that Deng Baichuan did not argue, so she directly admitted her mistake and asked him to get up, and then sat on the main seat and loudly warned the four generals standing below her and Murong Fu.

"Be cautious in the matter of recovering the country, and don't take a fork! Before my Dayan could not recover, the fact that we were the descendants of Dayan was known in advance by the Great Song Dynasty or other countries, what will we usher in Yanziwu, I think you all know it, if you don't know, ask your elders! Xia Xiyan's words made Deng Baichuan and the others' expressions become grim, and Xia Xiyan continued to say when he saw this, "I don't want to see today's events in the future!" ”

"Yes, old lady!" The four of them will respond in unison, and Xia Xiyan will tell them to go down.

"Mother, this Brother Deng's behavior today is really inconsiderate!"

Murong Fu, who had been sitting beside Xia Xiyan and watching Xia Xiyan reprimand the four generals, waited for the four generals to go down, and then opened his mouth to talk to Xia Xiyan.

"He's still the head of the four generals, and he's acting so unsafely! My Murong family is really as my mother said, there is no one who can be reused! ”

Xia Xiyan saw Murong Fu's sad sigh, and her heart was happy, but she reached out and patted his hand for comfort.

Murong Fu felt the temperature on the back of his hand, so he looked up at Xia Xiyan and said, "Mother, it's good that Fu'er has you, Dad is gone, Fu'er is incompetent, if there is no mother, I don't know how far the Murong family will fall under the support of the four generals!" ”

"Fu'er can't be so arrogant! You're still young, how can you be incompetent? Mother sees that your martial arts and sinology have made great progress recently, and my mother believes that even if Fu'er can't wait for the opportunity to revive my Dayan, she can let my Murong family continue to sit firmly in the first family of Gusu! ”

Murong Fu heard Xia Xiyan's expectations for him, so he warmly put away the loss and indignation on his face, and then looked at Xia Xiyan and assured Xia Xiyan, "Mother, Fu'er will continue to work hard!" The Murong family must not be weakened by me! The name of the first family of Gusu, I will definitely keep it! Fu'er also wants to make the Murong family the number one family in the world! ”

"Okay, this is the good man of my Murong family!" Xia Xiyan saw that the family goal she set for Murong Fu was accepted by Murong Fu, so she patted Murong Fu's shoulder in a very happy mood.

Murong Fu has accepted the reality that the restoration of the country may be hopeless in his generation, Xia Xiyan feels that as long as this is the case, even if she can't dispel the idea of the entire Murong family reviving Dayan in the future, but when Murong Fu is an adult, when he can't see the opportunity to restore the country, he shouldn't be like in his previous life, he has been running around, calculating everything that can be calculated to make plans for the restoration of the country.

And Xia Xiyan estimated that even if Murong Fu, who was brainwashed and raised by the Wang family and Murong Fu, could not dispel the obsession of the Murong family to restore the country, then under her guidance in many ways, after Murong Fu became a family and had an heir, Xia Xiyan believed that with her watching, Murong Fu would never talk about the restoration of the country like the Wang family and Murong Bo brainwashed their children. If you are not brainwashed by Fuguo, and your horizons are broader, then the obsession of Fuguo can be completely broken in a few generations.

"Fu'er, my mother knows that you, as the head of the family, want to support the status of the Murong family in the rivers and lakes, but my mother wants to warn you that you must remember to be greedy when practicing martial arts, and you must eat bite by bite, and the same is true for practicing martial arts, step by step. In addition to the time you spend studying Sinology, most of your time is spent practicing martial arts, my mother recently heard that you will get up late at night to practice martial arts, do you know that if you burn your body early, even if you practice my Murong family's mastery and consolidate the status of the Murong family in the rivers and lakes, you will be the same as your father, because you are now so eager to practice martial arts, and leave some dark injuries and die early, and finally leave a mess for your heirs! I also woke up from your father, nothing can be rushed, your father is also a teenager who forgot to sleep and eat to practice martial arts, and became famous in the rivers and lakes early, I hoped that you would be the same, so I have been forcing you to practice martial arts before, but seeing that your father was less than fifty years old due to a dark illness. My mother is also afraid that you will follow your father's old path and practice martial arts too quickly, and hurt your body. ”

Xia Xiyan saw that there were only her and Murong Fu in the room, and after talking about what happened in the court during the day, Xia Xiyan thought of something she knew a few days ago, so she immediately opened her mouth to admonish Murong Fu.

"That's why my mother won't let me practice martial arts like before after I get better!" After listening to Xia Xiyan's words, Murong Fu somewhat 'understood' Xia Xiyan's different attitude from the previous Wang family, and said to Xia Xiyan with some emotion in his heart, "Mother, Fu'er has recently learned Sinology, and she can watch and study the books in our Murong family's 'Huanshi Water Pavilion' by herself, and found that it is several times faster than listening to people read and learn before, so I want to be anxious to practice the martial arts I have comprehended, but let my mother worry about Fu'er's body!" ”

"Mother, it's Fu'er who doesn't understand her mother's hard work, don't worry, Fu'er will definitely not fight for physical martial arts in the future, Fu'er will strictly follow the time arranged by her mother to practice martial arts, and don't drag her body down!"

Xia Xiyan listened to Murong Fu's assurance, and smiled at him with relief, "Fu'er can figure it out, and my mother will rest assured!" ”

After Xia Xiyan and Murong Fu finished talking, they took Murong Fu out of the room, and saw Xiao Wang Yuyan waiting outside with teary eyes.

"Auntie, my mother is coming to take me back!" When Wang Yuyan saw Xia Xiyan coming out, she jumped up and hugged one of Xia Xiyan's legs, and talked to Xia Xiyan with some grievances.

Xia Xiyan saw that she was about to cry or not, so she picked her up distressedly, and then looked at Li Qingluo, who was chasing Wang Yuyan.

"Are my younger brothers and sisters here to pick up Yan'er" Xia Xiyan pretended not to see Li Qingluo's embarrassment in the face of her, and spoke to her.

"Yes, sister, Yan'er is here, my sister has missed her these days, thinking that Yan'er may also be homesick, so I came to pick her up!" Li Qingluo saw that Wang Yuyan didn't want to go back, but complained to Xia Xiyan, she felt that she had no face and was a little unhappy, but when facing Xia Xiyan, she still didn't dare to show her displeasure with Wang Yuyan, and only smiled and said something else.

"Auntie, Yan'er doesn't want to go back to Mantuo Villa, Yan'er wants to be here with her aunt, cousin, and Abi!" Wang Yuyan hugged Xia Xiyan's neck tightly, and expressed her thoughts to Xia Xiyan without looking at Li Qingluo.

After Li Qingluo heard this, she couldn't help but raise her voice and call Wang Yuyan!

"Yan'er!"

After Wang Yuyan heard this, her little body trembled, she looked back at Li Qingluo timidly, and immediately withdrew her gaze, and then buried her face in Xia Xiyan's neck and cried quietly.

Xia Xiyan saw Wang Yuyan crying, and patted her a little distressed, seeing that Li Qingluo was also a little embarrassed to cry because she yelled at her daughter, so she said, "Brother and sister, children are all lively temperaments, you are alone with Yan'er to live in the deserted Mantuo Villa, and it is normal for Yan'er not to like to go back." ”

Li Qingluo listened to Xia Xiyan's words, opened her mouth but didn't say anything.

Seeing this, Xia Xiyan continued, "I'm afraid you can't bear the loneliness in Mantuo Villa, let alone Yan'er!" Yan'er has been here with me for a few days, and there are several little sisters playing and studying with me, and she is much more cheerful and happy."

Xia Xiyan's words reminded Li Qingluo of the picture of Wang Yuyan and Abi, Azhu and Azi playing games together when she came to Yanziwu with the servants before.

Li Qingluo didn't want to deny that Wang Yuyan at that time was indeed a happiness she had never seen.

"Yan'er has been messing with a few girls, will she lose her identity too much?" Li Qingluo was a little entangled in her heart, and when she saw Xia Xiyan and her tell her to let Yan'er stay here for a few more days, she opened her mouth and said another thought in her heart.

"Brother and sister are you talking about Azhu and Abi?" Xia Xiyan listened to Li Qingluo's words, and immediately said, "Ah Bi, Ah Zhu, and Ah Zi are all the daughters of your brother-in-law's deceased, and the family background of those deceased people is not much worse than my Murong family and Wang family, and I raise the three of them as daughters, Yan'er plays with them, why did she lose her identity?" ”

Xia Xiyan said that she would raise Ah Zhu and them like daughters, so Li Qingluo panicked about what she said before, afraid that her words would displease Xia Xiyan and immediately said, "It's my sister I want to fork, sister, don't blame!" My sister is kind-hearted and raises them all as children of the Murong family! ”

"I only have one son, these girls have no father, and a few daughters are under the knees, and I am not bored and panicked, and I can be regarded as living up to your brother-in-law's request before he died!" Xia Xiyan deliberately said that the life experience of Abi, Azhu and Azi was a little higher, that is, Li Qingluo, who didn't want some people to watch people cook, sneered the three of them in the future and even prevented Wang Yuyan from playing with them.
