It was already getting dark, and there was no news from there, so Qian Yuan ordered someone to bring some wine and food.

"Young master, don't you send it over there, right?" Zhang San came in with a few guards carrying food boxes.

"That's a lot of nonsense." Qian Yuan scolded with a smile: "I know what to ask!" ”

Zhang San brought out the dishes with a smile, Xiangling and Raider placed the dishes and chopsticks, he knew the inside story, and he had been sending meals to Xufu for more than two months in a row, but nine times out of ten, they couldn't be delivered to the destination, in Qian Yuan's words, they were all fed to the dogs.

"This guy Zhang San, Zhang San and Li Si's Zhang San." Qian Yuan Nunu mouthed, "The first one in the escort team to follow me was very lazy." ”

Zhang San said aggrievedly: "Young master, there are small ones and big names." ”

"What's your name?" Qingwen on the side asked casually.

"It was obtained by the young master, Zhang Yishan."

The corners of Xiao Qi's mouth twitched, turned his head and glared at Qian Yuan, who couldn't help laughing, and then looked at Zhang San...... It's kind of like that.

"Alright, you all go out." Qian Yuan waved his hand to drive everyone out, and moved the stool to Xiao Qi's side, "Young Master today, I will personally serve you...... Look, it's all what you like to eat. ”

"Boiled pork slices, boiled fish fillets, sauerkraut fish......" Xiao Qi nodded vigorously and bit the chopsticks, "No, I didn't say I like spicy food." ”

"Hey, I really can't hear any news, huh?" Qian Yuan sandwiched a piece of spicy chicken and handed it to Xiao Qiwan, "Just because I grabbed the boiled fish fillet, I was punished by the old witch to kneel...... Look how I turn around and avenge you! ”

Xiao Qi glanced sideways, although he was only fifteen years old, but Yingying Qiushui was quite charming, which made Qian Yuan's heart skip a beat.

"I can't wait." Qian Yuan got closer again, "Ming'er will accept Cai, as fast as she can, and when my mother goes to Beijing, I will marry you." ”

"By the way, be careful when you go back later, Xu Fan's waste is useless, in addition to Keqing and Xiangling, I will borrow two mothers-in-law from my uncle and mother for you."

Xiao Qi's lips that had already eaten were red and oily, "You can't go wrong with your plan, don't make it impossible to go back tonight...... That's bad. ”

"Probably not." Qian Yuan stretched out his finger and touched Xiao Qi's lips, reached into his mouth and licked it, causing Xiao Qi to put down the chopsticks is a hammer.

"Disgusting!"

"What's so disgusting about this...... If you don't give kiss, you can head office indirectly! Qian Yuan couldn't help but smile and said: "Don't worry, if you really can't go back, I won't choose an official, I will take you back to the southeast, it's a big deal to let my uncle accept you as a righteous daughter." ”

"Your uncle?"

"Yihuang Tan, Taizhou prefect Tan Lun, is also a famous anti-Japanese general in history, and Qi Jiguang is called 'Qi Tan', and later served as the governor of Jiliao and the secretary of the military department."

"Have you really thought about it?"

"Of course." Qian Yuan pursed his lips, "Don't look at Xu Jiedou and defeat Yan Song, in fact, he didn't last a few more years." ”

After a pause, Qian Yuan sighed: "Actually, this is the best way...... However, it is unlikely that Xu Jie is a typical politician, and you will go back. ”

That's when there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

"Young Master." Zhou Ze bowed down and reported, "A quarter of an hour ago, the left capital of the Imperial Palace, Shi Paan, and his wife Liu left the Xu Mansion. ”

Qian Yuan smiled: "Look, it's going to be soon." ”

Xiao Qi's chopsticks rose and fell as fast as raindrops, and he muttered in a low voice: "It's a little cold, next time you just eat hot pot, is there a clear oil and spicy pot bottom?" ”

"Uh, that's too chili...... Well, let's go back and study the research. ”

……

Xu's Mansion, the backyard [Liancheng] main hall.

All the mothers-in-law and maids were driven out, Xu Jie sat there expressionlessly, Xu Fan stood solemnly with his hands down, his face was dazed, and his face was distorted by surprise and surprise.

For Xu Fan, the sudden change of the flying immortals in this day is not a bad thing, to put it mildly, his status in the family can be guaranteed, after all, the grandmother in front of him who is angrily scolding her eldest daughter is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Thinking about it, Xu Fan's wife Ji is only a native of Songjiang Huating, and she married into the Xu family just because her father had a good relationship with Xu Tan.

And Zhang's two sons, the older Xu Kun is eleven years old this year, and he has already married the daughter of Lu Bing, the commander of Jinyiwei.

has a world-famous two-list jinshi as a son-in-law, Xu Fan will naturally have confidence in the future.

said a small point, Xu Fan pondered that he would be able to suppress Qian Yuan in the future, not to mention being beaten again, maybe it would be the other way around......

Well, Xu Fan obviously thinks too much, and even thinks the opposite.

At this time, a mother-in-law cautiously came in from the side hall and bowed her head to report: "Madam, this afternoon, I went out from the side door of the East and West Alleys with two maids. ”

Xu Fan scratched his head, "Why don't I go out and look for it?" ”

Zhang glared at the oil bottle fiercely, and said sharply: "Plunder the daughters of important ministers, report to the Shuntian Mansion immediately!" ”

"No way!" Xu Fan jumped up suddenly.

"No way?" Zhang's momentum was menacing, "Could it be that you can still get it back?" Could it be that you instigated it? Then it's not a captivity, it's an escape and elopement! ”

I was egging on a fart, and I didn't know anything from start to finish...... Xu Fan is not a talented person, and his mouth is not sharp, so he can only look at Xu Jie, "Father ......"

Xu Jie glanced at his wife lightly, and thought in his heart, maybe this is the reason why Qian Yuan abducted people before proposing.

Zhang's was married to Xu Jie in the seventeenth year of Jiajing, and gave birth to a daughter Xu Can in the second year, when Xu Jie was less than forty, he was in the prime of life, and in addition to Zhang's family, there were three concubines in the house, but none of them had children.

As Qian Yuan, Pan En, and Emperor Jiajing guessed, for Xu Jie, it didn't matter if it was a daughter or a granddaughter.

But the most typical characteristic of a politician like Xu Jie is that he will associate anything with him...... I'm not afraid to think too much, I'm afraid not to think about it.

Three days ago, Xu Jie's message was asked, asking for Nacai before the selection of Jishi, and this morning, Qian Yuan entered the West Garden to meet His Majesty, and his granddaughter left the house in the afternoon and her whereabouts are still unknown.

Obviously, the little fellow had been prepared.

But what made Xu Jie puzzled was that if Qian Yuan intended to marry, why did he have to choose Xiaoqi?

After all, one is a daughter and the other is a granddaughter, separated by a layer.

"Sir." The housekeeper who had followed Xu Jie's for decades cautiously approached, "Someone sent a message." ”

"Who's?"

"Money's?"

Ignoring the questions of his wife and son, Xu Jie took the letter and looked at it, there was no payment on it, only one line of words, "Before choosing Shu Jishi." ”

Xu Jie put away the letter and shook his head, even if this was a condition offered by Qian Yuan, it couldn't be explained.

"A concubine, how can she compare with Sister Can!"

"No matter how much she is a concubine, she is also the daughter of the Xu family, so naturally her father is in charge."

"Eloped, the reputation of the Xu family was lost by her!"

"Who said that she eloped, maybe she just went to Tanzhe Temple to worship the Buddha, and she will be back later!"

It's okay not to talk about Tanzhe Temple, but when it comes to this Zhang's anger, there is no objection at all that day, but in the end it was a different person!

Sighing softly, Xu Jie was a little irritable, this kind of emotion rarely appeared in his heart, he didn't care about anything else, and he no longer thought about why Qian Yuan had to be Xiao Qi.

What Xu Jie is thinking about now is that Qian Yuan entered the West Garden today to meet His Majesty, what the hell is going on, he doesn't think that Qian Yuan's entry into the West Garden at this time is just a coincidence.

And abducted Xiao Qi away, on the one hand, he was worried that the backyard of the Xu Mansion would attack Xiao Qi, and on the other hand, he showed his determination.

What annoyed Xu Jie the most was that if he wanted to respond to the proposal of the Qian Mansion, he must respond today, and he must not let his granddaughter spend the night outside, otherwise not to mention the rumors in his backyard, maybe Qian Zheng and his wife and Qian Yuan's mother will categorically refuse to marry.

In other words, Qian Yuan didn't give Xu Jie time to think about it.

"Mother, my sister-in-law is amazing, and she still can't find Ruyi Langjun?" Xu Fan smiled and said: "Then Qian Zhan will try to be second to last, and the palace will try to be second to last, where is it worthy of a girl." ”

Zhang's face turned from blue to white, and then from white to black, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't it you?!" ”

"What?"

"Did you tell the Qian family that those poems were written by your daughter?!"

This sentence woke up Xu Jie, or rather, gave Xu Jie's a chance to go down.

When he heard Xu Fan recite the poems in the letters he had been sending back and forth for more than two months, Xu Jie's face changed slightly, and when he heard the sentence "Zhu Yan Ci Mirror Flower Tree", Xu Jie couldn't help but think in his heart, no wonder Qian Yuan was bent on marrying.

In any case, Xiao Qi's reputation as a talented woman is really buckled on her head.

Zhang also vaguely guessed something, eighty percent of it was his daughter who leaked the bottom, and it was also possible that Xiao Qi had made a ghost, otherwise why did he disappear without a trace at a critical time.

"Fan'er, you go to the Qian Mansion in person." Xu Jie said categorically: "Tomorrow, I will leave it to the Ji family." ”

Xu Fan's voice should be yes, and he disappeared in a puff of smoke.

And Zhang's face was gray, with tears on his cheeks, "Master, that daughter ......"

"Let's talk about it again." Xu Jie said expressionlessly: "It's not wrong to do hands and feet, but if you are aware of doing hands and feet, what else can you say." ”

Only three quarters of an hour later, three carriages stopped at the side gate of the East and West Alleys, and eight guards on tall horses in front and behind, with swords at their waists and staring at them.

Keqing and Xiangling helped Xiao Qi to enter the door slowly, the mother-in-law guarding the door on the side lowered her head and did not dare to look directly, and four middle-aged women and four little maids came down from the other two carriages, all following behind Xiao Qi.

This is a shotgun for a gun, originally Xiao Qi only had two maids in total, but now there are two close-fitting, four serving, plus four servants, even Miss Xu Si does not have this style.
