Chapter 319: Seeking
Han Xiyi couldn't stay any longer, turned around and walked out of the cabin, turned over on his horse after going ashore, and galloped away.
Listening to the sound of horses' hooves, Xie Yinyue picked up the wine glass, raised her head and drank it, and then poured another glass.
Han Xiyi ordered Xiaoxiu to go to Xia's house to send a post to Xia Liuxing, and he went to Zuixian Tower first.
While waiting, his thoughts were chaotic and could not converge, and occasionally a half-thought flashed through him, and it was as fast as a fish swimming in water, and he couldn't catch it at all. For a while, Xie Yinyue's mournful voice echoed in his ears, and for a while, he remembered Guo Qing's dumb saying, "I just left the tiger's den and entered the wolf's den", and for a while, Fang Chu's decisive and resolute face when he said that he was retiring from his relatives appeared in front of him, and his heart shrank.
He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
When he calmed down, he did not return to his usual casualness, and his handsome face was solemn and frozen.
Xia Liuxing arrived as promised, Han Xiyi personally poured tea for him, and then said bluntly: "Thanks to Young Master Xia's refusal to give up, you can also have a frank relationship with me and other businessmen." There is a puzzle below: Young Master Xia wants to take Miss Guo as a concubine, and the means are ruthless and leave no room for it, so why did he come? If it is true love, it will hurt Miss Guo this time, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to win back the hearts of the beloved people. And forced Miss Guo to be a concubine, Young Master Xia is not afraid of causing criticism? ”
Xia Liuxing looked at him in surprise and asked, "Do you like Miss Guo?" ”
Without waiting for him to answer, he said: "She doesn't like you, or do you dislike her for having a bad reputation and can't convince her parents to marry her back?" Otherwise, you don't have to question Young Master Ben, just go directly to the Guo family to ask for marriage. If the Guo family responds to the family matter, this young master is really tricky. ”
Han Xiyi restrained himself, stared at him and asked, "Young Master Xia is really reckless?" ”
Xia Liuxing chuckled, "What consequences? What if Miss Guo is willing to be my concubine? ”
Han Xiyi snorted lightly in his nose. said: "Young Master Xia doesn't know Miss Guo too well. I'm afraid that my thoughts will be disappointed, and in the end, I will end up with a 'bamboo basket for water', not to mention, but also affect Lord Xia. Then it will be too late to regret it! ”
Xia Meteor's face sank. got up and shouted, "It's not your turn to teach Young Master Ben a lesson!" ”
After speaking, he put the tea cup on the table, got up and walked out.
When he walked to the door and stood still, he turned around and sneered contemptuously: "It's just a profit-seeking businessman, don't think that others can't see through that little thought." If you really want to talk about morality like that, why didn't you stand up for Miss Guo in the Xie family two years ago? With that, he opened the door and went out.
Han Xiyi did not get angry, on the contrary, he calmed down.
The thoughts that couldn't be gathered before suddenly became clear.
Sit for a while. He got up and took the cloak off the hanger, put it on unhurriedly, and elegantly tied the silk tape. Then he walked out and went downstairs, and Xiao Xiu, who was guarding outside the door of the private room, hurriedly followed.
At the top of the stairs, I met a girl with a maid. Some are familiar. I don't know whose family it is. He flashed to the side and politely let her go first. The girl blushed, glanced at him, and stopped talking, seeing that he didn't pay attention to herself at all, so she had to go first.
Han Xiyi waited for her to go down before leaving with Xiaoxiu.
When he got home, he called Han Zhang into the study first.
Han Zhang stayed in the study for a full hour. Then hurried out.
Han Xiyi stayed in the study and didn't come out.
That night, the light in the study was on overnight.
Let's talk about summer meteors. After coming out of Han Xiyi's private room, he turned around and went up to the third floor.
When there was no one, his face became solemn, and he no longer had the momentum he had just faced Han Xiyi.
First the Yan family represented by Cai Ming, then Han Xiyi, who will be next?
Xia Liuxing didn't think that his behavior of accepting Guo Qingmu as a concubine caused injustice to others, because when he said that he would marry her as his wife, Cai Ming came forward to dissuade him, which shows that it is not a matter of status, but that these people do not want Guo Qingmu to enter the Xia family.
Who else, he could not guess, could only wait.

In the garden of the Wei family, Wei Han sat in the conservatory and was stunned, and the bright flowers in her eyes could not attract her half attention. From the news that Guo's Xifang was sealed, she lost her soul like this.
His arsenic and my honey, fate is used to playing tricks on people!
Wei Zhao didn't have time to care about her, he was very busy.
He sent everyone out, some concerned about the Xia family, and some concerned about the Guo family.
※
In the capital city of Huzhou, Fang Chu met Gao Ming, the son of Governor Gao, in a quiet teahouse.
The tall young master smiled: "It's a coincidence, if Brother Fang comes one day late, he won't be able to find it." ”
Fang Chu hurriedly asked, "Uncle Gao wants to go out?" ”
The tall young master nodded and said, "Go to the capital." ”
It turned out that he had been waiting at home for a long time, and now he had just found a job as a principal in the household department.
Fang Chu hurriedly congratulated and asked about the itinerary and other arrangements.
The tall young master said a little and asked him what was the matter here.
Fang Chu didn't beat around the bush, and asked him directly: The governor has any thoughts about declaring to the imperial court to ask Guo Qingmu to give the title of 'Weaver Girl'.
The tall young master nodded and said, "My father does have this plan. However, the declaration must be drafted by the local county order, and the father of the family will reach the imperial court. ”
Fang Chu asked, "Adults can't play directly?" ”
The tall young master had already felt that he was wrong, so he asked, "Why is the virtuous brother so eager?" ”
There is still a sentence in my heart that I haven't asked, "Miss Guo has nothing to do with you, why is she so enthusiastic?" Aren't you afraid that Miss Xie will misunderstand? ”
Fang Chu thought about it for a while and decided to tell him the truth.
Otherwise, when he learns the news in a few days, he will think that he is using him.
Therefore, he said: "Young Master Xia wants to marry Miss Guo." The Guo family refused to agree. ”
The tall young master was very surprised when he heard this, and frowned: "Is this true? ”
Fang Chu nodded affirmatively and said, "Really! ”
The tall young master asked, "The Guo family shouldn't, how about the Xia family?" ”
Fang Chu said: "I refuse to let go." ”
The tall young master nodded clearly, and after a while, he asked again, "What does Brother Fang mean?" ”
Fang Chu said: "If Miss Guo has the title of royal gift, presumably the Xia family will be afraid of one or two. ”
The tall young master chuckled and said, "Brother Xian, this is ...... Do you want my father to deal with Lord Xia? ”
Fang Chu shook his head and said, "Junior brother, a few dares, dare to drive the use of the governor!" Previously, Jiang Minghui's murder case had been concluded, which confirmed that Miss Guo was wronged. The younger brother thought that it was the right time for the governor to play to appease the Guo family, calm the people's hearts, and show the adult's bosom for the country and the people. As for what Lord Xia did, and even what it will do in the future, what does it have to do with Lord Governor? The Governor has not shown the slightest favoritism. ”
He deliberately accentuated the words "what will happen in the future".
The tall young master looked at him with a meaningful gaze.
Fang Chu was not nervous and cramped, took out a small towel from his sleeve and handed it to him, saying, "This is a cotton towel newly developed by the Guo family. Uncle, please touch it, it's softer than the cloth towel we used in the past. I heard that the Guo family said that a batch of them had been sent to Beijing. There is such a talent under the rule, and it is also the governor's good governance, which is the merit of the governor! ”
The tall young master's eyes quickly lit up.
"The exploits of the governor" moved him.
He felt that his father deserved it.
Guo Qingdu, wasn't it under the protection of his father that he was able to avenge his grievances last time!
He asked solemnly, "Before or after the Xia family begged for marriage before this towel appeared?" ”
Fang Chu said: "After that." The Guo family brought some waste towels to give away at the wedding banquet of the third son, and the good ones were all in. I heard Uncle Guo say that in the future, when the above approves it, this towel, like other new products, will also be authorized to other businesses to weave, and it will never be monopolized. Uncle thought, this is a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people? ”
The tall young master laughed and said, "This doesn't need to be said! This Guo family has some meaning. ”
Then he said: "Brother Fool knows about this." Virtuous brother but relaxed. ”
When Fang Chu heard this, his heart finally fell, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
The tall young master accepted the towel and looked at Fang Chu casually, wanting to ask him why he helped the Guo family so much, and helped Guo Qingdu, was it just because he had a cooperative relationship with the Guo family?
I weighed it in my heart, but I still didn't ask.
Anyway, Governor Gao will investigate before the request, as long as it is not fake.
The two sat down for a while, and went to the restaurant to have dinner before Fang Chu said goodbye.
Fang's family was in Fucheng, and he went home at night.
The next day, he visited a few people, investigated some things, and left for Xiazhao three days later. Counting the time spent on the way back and forth, it took a total of seven or eight days before and after this trip.
When I arrived at Kasumi, it was early afternoon.
It's late October, the sky is overcast, and the first snow of the winter is about to fall. Pedestrians on the street did not rush to the streets, and their expressions were calm, as if they were expecting the snow. People still prefer snowy days to dry, cold and freezing weather. The people love snow for the next year's harvest; The literati liked snow, but they liked the cleanliness and poetry of snow. There are already people planning to wait for the snow to go to Fahua Temple to watch plums, and go to Tianhu Lake to enjoy the cold snow.
Under such circumstances, Fang Chu heard only a few words from the people on the street: Miss Guo promised to be a concubine for Young Master Xia, and the Xia family had already given a dowry!
