"Young Master! You're finally back, how long will you be at home this time? ”

After letting Yuan Zetao take him down, Xia Fan and Ye Yi walked towards the backyard of the family house together.

The blood servants who came back early had already reported the general situation to Xia Ya, so the Xia family members in the clan mansion were not surprised by Xia Fan's return.

Ya'er ran to Xia Ya's yard to wait for Xia Fan even early, and after seeing Xia Fan and Ye Yi walking in together, the whole person was even more excited and threw herself directly into Xia Fan's arms, and asked at the same time.

Xia Fan rubbed Ya'er's hair very dotingly, and said with a smile: "It's not decided yet, but it shouldn't be too long, and there are still some very important things to do." ”

"It's ...... every time"

Ya'er couldn't help but pout.

"Ya'er, this is also something that can't be helped, is my father in it?"

"Well, the head of the family is inside, originally I was refining medicine, I knew that the young master came back and hurriedly ran over, then the young master, you should be busy with business first, after you are done, you must come to the Danfang to see me." I'll go back and continue refining the medicine first. ”

After Ya'er finished speaking, she bowed to Ye Yi again, and then ran out of Xia Ya's mansion in a hurry.

"She's like this, I'm afraid she won't marry in the future."

Looking at Ya'er's departing figure, Ye still suddenly spoke.

"Huh? What do you mean? ”

Xia Fan was slightly stunned.

"Ya'er's heart is all on you, don't you feel it?"

Ye still glanced at Xia Fan with a strange expression.

"Won't you...... Ya'er has been my maid since she was a child, and you don't know how much of a bastard I used to be, how could she have a heart on me. ”

Xia Fan said in amazement.

"Of course you don't understand a woman's mind, for a woman, whether she falls in love with a man or not, and whether the man is a scumbag, has nothing to do with it."

Ye still glanced at Xia Fan, then took Xia Fan's hand and walked towards the house, and then said: "Okay, let's go see my father first, as for Ya'er's affairs, you will handle it yourself when the time comes, I won't care about it." ”

Xia Fan blinked, his mind was a little confused for a while, and he had been dragged into Xia Ya's house by Ye Yan.

None of the blood servants were there, and they didn't know where they had gone, as for Bai Xingshu and Yan Zi'an, according to other clansmen along the way, Yan Zi'an was traveling around the entire Kyoto Prefecture under the leadership of Bai Xingshu......

"Father, I'm back."

Following Ye Yi, he walked into the study of the patriarch's house, and Xia Ya was still sitting at the desk dealing with family affairs. The old housekeeper was still standing quietly behind Xia Ya, and as Xia Fan and Ye still walked into the study, Xia Ya did not raise his head, and the old housekeeper smiled.

Xia Fan suddenly felt a little in a trance, and everything didn't seem to have changed, just like a few years ago, on the morning when he had just relived, he went to his father's study with great joy and saw his father who had not been seen for twenty years and the old housekeeper who was looking old.

It's just that Xia Fan at that time, although he was happy and excited, he was still a little apprehensive in his heart, and he was still full of some inexplicable awe and worries about the future.

But at this moment, whether it is the entire family, or their father and son, they have undergone earth-shaking changes, although the scene in front of them seems familiar, whether it is their father and son, or the entire Xia family, they have embarked on a new path.

Xia Fan was a little emotional, but he was also very satisfied because of this.

"Well, sit down, the bloody hand and blood river have already told me in detail what you encountered, the dynasty has indeed been turbulent recently, although the last time the collective attack of other families was interrupted by the sudden beast tide, and also made them suffer a dumb loss, but those people did not settle down. The long silence and accumulation are probably just for a more violent outburst. ”

Xia Ya raised his head, glanced at Xia Fan, and smiled lovingly at Ye Ying, then pointed to the seat in front of him and said.

"Did you find anything?"

Xia Fan sat in front of Xia Ya and asked.

"Not much, not too little, during this time most of my energy was focused on the combing of the family, after you came back, the cleaning of the entire family made it much easier for me to sort out the whole family, the family has been completely advanced in the way I expected, and the strength of the whole family has begun to slowly improve, I believe that in the future for a period of time, the family will enter a period of rapid development. So my current focus is still on the family, and I don't pay much attention to the outside world. ”

After Xia Ya explained briefly, the tone of his words changed, and he suddenly said: "But because of some accidental circumstances, I know some other things, but I don't know if these things will help you." ”

"What's the matter?"

Xia Fan raised his eyebrows, instinctively feeling that what his father was going to say would be very important.

Sure enough, with Xia Fan's questioning, Xia Ya took a sip of tea, cleared his throat, and said: "The family seems to have always wanted to infiltrate the palace, this kind of infiltration is not only to infiltrate the people around the emperor, but most importantly...... They seem to want to infiltrate the Emperor's bloodline! ”

"What do you mean?"

Xia Fan frowned.

"At present, Your Majesty is still very young, but the number of concubines is already quite a lot, although they are in the prime of life, everyone knows that Your Majesty has cultivated the Emperor Fist, as long as he has not broken through to the realm of saints, it is impossible to live for long. Therefore, whether it is in the government or in the opposition, I hope that Your Majesty can give birth to more heirs as soon as possible, just in case, Your Majesty himself is not disgusted with this matter, and in this regard, it can be regarded as an effort. ”

Xia Ya leaned back in his chair, took a deep breath and closed his eyes slightly, and then said: "At present, no one thinks that Your Majesty will be able to break through to become a saint in your lifetime, including Your Majesty himself, so during the time that Your Majesty is still alive, giving birth and cultivating a suitable next emperor is the most important thing!" ”

"That's what I've learned...... Other families have already set their sights on this, and I don't know exactly which concubine or which concubines were arranged by the family, but there must be, and the purpose of the families is to achieve the final peaceful evolution through their influence and covert control over the next emperor. As long as the new emperor can be set up as a puppet, it will naturally be the most in line with their interests. ”

After Xia Ya finished speaking, Xia Fan fell directly into contemplation.

The discovery that flashed on the road just now came back to my mind clearly.
