Chapter 213
The moon is in the middle of the sky.
Huo Xi took Huo Shufan and left the Yanguo Mansion.
Standing in front of the tall vermilion gate of the Yanguo Mansion, Huo Xi turned his head to look, the smile on his face became more and more intense, and there was a glint of extreme envy in his eyes:
"This is the real high gate!"
"Grandiose, majestic, even the subordinates in the house have a good manners!"
"After you marry the sixth princess, such a high gate can enter and exit at will!"
"With the support and commitment of Yan Guogong, our Huo family ...... Although it can't become such a high-level gate for the time being, it is just around the corner to become a famous family in Ningguo!"
Tonight, Yan Guogong personally feasted on their grandfather and grandson.
The attitude is not very kind, but it is not indifferent either.
This is a great honor for the two grandchildren of the Huo family who came from Guangling City.
Because to sit at the table with someone of this status, which they had never thought of before.
During the banquet, Yan Guogong asked most about Guangling City.
More about Li Chen'an.
Huo Xi naturally has his opinion on this, he has heard Huo Shufan talk about the conflict between Yan Zifu and Li Chen'an, Yan Guogong's intention is of course to know more about Li Chen'an, and then, it must be easy to strangle Li Chen'an to death!
The grandfather and grandson walked towards the carriage.
Huo Xi said again: "Yan Guogong said that he would give you the plum garden as a mansion for the horses......"
He lifted his feet and got into the carriage, Huo Shufan followed, the two sat in the carriage, and he said: "The tidying up of the plum garden, this matter can no longer let Yan Guogong break the bank." ”
"Our Huo family's foundation is still shallow, if you want to gain a firm foothold in Kyoto, even if you marry the sixth princess, you need to have a good relationship with the Yanguo Mansion, so you will send 30,000 taels of silver tickets to the Yanguo Mansion tomorrow...... Our Huo family also has a little more silver. ”
"This is a man, the emphasis is on self-knowledge!"
"The Yan Guogong Mansion sent out the plum garden in a grand manner, we have to say something, but we can't let the Yan Guogong underestimate our Huo family. ”
The carriage headed for the Kyoto Hofu.
Huo Shufan listened carefully to his grandfather's orders, responded one by one, and finally asked:
"Grandpa, little sister, it seems that little sister seems to be still interested in Li Chen'an, is there a way to fulfill this little sister?"
Horch stroked his long beard and shook his head without hesitation:
"No way!"
"Before this, my grandfather was deceived by Li Chenan and almost made a big mistake...... After all, he couldn't do things well, and Li Chenan dared to act unscrupulously when he thought that he had the Dingguo Marquis Mansion as the backing...... This is Kyoto!"
"He has offended Prime Minister Shang, and now he has offended the Duke of Yanguo, although the Marquis Mansion of Dingguo is powerful, it has not yet reached the height of being able to fight with the Prime Minister Mansion and the Duke of Yanguo Mansion at the same time...... If grandpa is the head of the Dingguo Marquis Mansion, in the current situation, he should decisively draw a clear line with Li Chenan and cut off the relationship, otherwise, I am afraid that the Dingguo Marquis Mansion will also be implicated by that kid and fall into a state of no return!"
"After I go back, my grandfather will be good and Shuyi said, her idea is too dangerous!"
"The grandson understands and will persuade his sister. ”
"Well, the affairs of this daughter's family are all small things, and Ming'er remembers that there is another big thing...... Go with grandpa to Honglu Temple to apprentice to Old Master Wei!"
......
......
Kyoto Huo Fu is located on the west side of the eighth bridge in the middle reaches of the Yudai River, this street is called Shijing Alley, not far from Jingzhao Mansion, and is considered a prosperous place in Yujing City.
Because of the proximity to Jingzhao Mansion, this place is safe, and even the ruffians in Yujing City do not dare to spread wild around here, after all, the knife in the hand of the current Jingzhao Mansion Yin Xiangdong is really good at killing.
But tonight there seems to have been an accident.
Yin Xiangdong, the governor of Jingzhao Mansion, has always slept late.
He was in the backyard of the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, looking at a book with a lantern.
At that moment, a man suddenly rushed into the backyard.
Looking up to the east, the person who came was Luo Dong'an, the young man of Jingzhao Mansion, the sixth young master of the Luo Guo Mansion in Kyoto.
Luo Dongan hurriedly came to Xiang Dong's face, bowed his hand, and said with an extremely serious expression: "Lord Xiang, Gangwu Hou Shop Chen just came to report that the Huo Mansion in Shijing Alley was robbed by bandits!"
Xiang Dong frowned and put down the book in his hand: "Did you catch it?"
"Back to my lord, no!"
"Why?"
Chen Gang said that there were 12 bandits, but they were all riding horses, masked, and carrying knives...... Their martial arts skills are very high, and the fifteen catchers of Wuhou Shop were all dispatched, but they were easily put down!"
Brushing the short beard to the east, Kyoto can't actually talk about peace, but under their own suppression over the years, bandits and people in the rivers and lakes rarely cause trouble in Kyoto anymore.
But this happened tonight......
"How many of the Huo family died?"
"Lord Hui, no one died, but he was kidnapped by bandits, and the lower official has ordered him to go and ask for details. ”
"Hmmm......"
Xiang Dong stood up and looked at the bright moon in the sky, since there were twelve of these bandits, and they were all riding horses and carrying swords, the city gate was closed at this moment, and they must have escaped.
He was startled...... Could it be the private soldier of a certain family in the city?
It's just that the status of the family that can have private soldiers is very high, and there should be no shortage of silver in the family, so why would they send someone to Nahuo Mansion to rob it?
Recently, I heard that Huo Baiyang's son was taken by the sixth princess, and I am afraid that he will soon be able to become the concubine of the sixth princess...... This case happened at this time, could it be that a certain family was dissatisfied with it?
Not right either!
If they are not satisfied, they will kill instead of committing the robbery.
It's an eventful time in Kyoto right now, and it's a long time to do anything.
"Let's go, go to Huo Mansion!"
Xiang Dong and Luo Dongan took a few catchers to Huo Mansion, and at this moment, Huo Xi's carriage had arrived at the door of Huo Mansion.
The grandfather and grandson got out of the carriage but were suddenly startled, because the door of Huo's mansion was wide open, and there were two catchers with knives standing in front of the door.
Horch walked over in surprise, but was stopped by the catcher:
"Who are you waiting for?"
"Old man, master here!"
The two of them glanced at each other, and the older one had a little sympathy in his eyes when he looked at Horchy, and at this moment Horch asked again:
"Poor master, this ...... What's going on?"
"Go in, your house has been robbed. ”
Huo Xi was stunned for a moment, his face changed suddenly, he didn't even care about Huo Shufan, he ran inside violently.
When he arrived at the main courtyard and saw that his butler knew what had happened, he rolled his eyes and fell to the ground with a "......bang!"
And at the moment.
The headquarters of the Regaige Division.
The fourth princess, Ning Chuchu, looked at the pile of gold and silver like a hill in front of her, as well as the silver tickets scattered on it, her eyes were straight!
"Chen An really didn't lie to me!"
"The fastest way to get money...... It's a robbery!"
"Kaiyang,"
"The subordinates are here!"
"Send someone to take inventory, don't leak the slightest rumor about this matter, and then ...... Let's find out who else in Kyoto is suitable for robbery!"
Kaiyang swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and suddenly found that His Highness had changed!
Is this really good?
If the matter is revealed and Ji Tai catches the handle, I am afraid that it will be extremely unfavorable to His Royal Highness the Prince!
"Your Highness, do you want to ...... Wait until the rumors are over this time?"
“...... It makes sense, I'll go back first, and Ming'er will tell me how much silver I get!"
"Good!"
Ning Chuchu happily returned to her princess's mansion with the paper kite, and then heard the maid's report, she knew that Zhongli Ruoshui had come at night, and invited her to go to the Huaxi Courtyard for a gathering tomorrow.
She took off the face towel and muttered, "Could it be that this little girl knows that this palace has gone to see Li Chen'an?
