"Xu Changsha, the three-day period has arrived, hand over the Pingjing book." Mingxiao didn't know if Xu Xiang would have any other backhand, and said immediately.

Seeing that he finally asked this question, Xu Xiang shook his head and said, "Your Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, the Pingjing Book is really not in Xiaoling's hands, and Xu has never seen it. ”

"That means you can't hand it over?" Mingxiao was already prepared to not get the Pingjing book, and he didn't show anger and surprise.

Mingxiao didn't bring anyone over, that is, he expected this situation to happen, and seeing that Xu Xiang still didn't answer his words, he said: "In this case, handing over Yueling to this prince to take away, this matter has nothing to do with your Xu Mansion." ”

He still remembered what Ming Heng told him that he must not fall out with Xu Changsha. At this time, he couldn't help but think in his heart: Looking at this posture, even if my father didn't specifically instruct me, I can't act rashly......

Father is right, this Xu Changsha is by no means as simple as an ordinary businessman!

Although he knew that without figuring out Xu Xiang's true background, he couldn't help this businessman. But he didn't want to give up, so he retreated and asked for Yue Ling.

Yue Ling is the only living person in the Yue family, and he is probably the only one in the world who knows the whereabouts of Pingjing.

He thought of the little child who would rather die than give in, soft and hard, but he couldn't ask a word from his mouth.

"Nope." Xu Xiang briefly refused, the last time he was not in the mansion, Yue Ling was beaten into that appearance, and tortured to ask a child, such an act was simply cold-blooded and ruthless, cruel and unkind.

Since he has entered his Xu Mansion, he has to protect him. He would never allow that to happen again.

"Xu Changsha! Do you know what you're doing? You're shielding the fugitive family! ”

"If you want to add sin, there is no excuse!" Xu Xiang responded coldly.

"You! What is the desire to add sin? I, Minglou, am responsible for supervising the hundred officials, Yue Qiong is a soldier who guards the city with tea oil, and the army of Wuye Kingdom attacked, he abandoned the city and fled, and collected the Pingjing book! This is a fugitive, and the crime is terrible! ”

"Your Highness, as far as I know, Yue Qiong is just a small tun chief, right? Wu Ye Kingdom invaded tea oil, who is the crime? Lin Fu said, "The crime lies with the 80,000 garrisons in Lushui Town, not on the tun chief among the defenders of a city!" ”

Xu Xiang showed a surprised look on his face, this Lin Fuhang usually has a cold posture, and he responds with one or two words when he talks to him, but now, he has said so many words, the key is that he still feels reasonable when he listens, it is simply to the point!

Mingxiao was a little arrogant, the Lin clan really stood on Xu Changsha's side, so they didn't care if they would have trouble with Zhongshan Kingdom!

"Your Highness, Yue Ling is just a child, he doesn't know anything, if His Highness insists on taking him away, please forgive me for being unable to obey him!" Xu Xiang saw that Mingxiao was dumbfounded by Lin Fu, and took the opportunity to say.

Mingxiao's face was very ugly, "I hope the Lin family doesn't regret the decision made today!" ”

After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

When he came to Xu Mansion this time, his face was completely lost. After going out, his face became very gloomy, and passers-by avoided him when they saw his handsome and full of anger.

Fortunately, he had a certain expectation of today's events, so he did not bring his subordinates and followers over, otherwise he would have lost his prestige in the future.

After Mingxiao left, Xu Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, this crisis should be solved. But he knew that Mingxiao would definitely not give up, and he still had to be cautious in the future and try not to deal with him.

"Thank you, Brother Lin, for speaking up!" Xu Xiang thanked Lin Fuhang, who didn't say a word, turned around and left.

"Xu Changsha, everyone is gone, what else are you looking at? Don't you want to eat yet? I'm starving! Xiao Xueying picked up the wooden box and said urgically.

"Oh! Oh! Good! Miss Ying'er, please! Xu Xiang came back to his senses, he still had a certain understanding of Lin Fuhang's character, so he could only let him go.

At the dinner table, although he was extremely hungry, he had no taste for food.

Lin Chong was so good to himself, he was willing to give him the golden order of the Lin Mansion's warehouse last time, and give away 50,000 stone of grain for nothing! And this time he didn't hesitate to risk offending Mingxiao to help himself, if he didn't need to ask for anything in return, he didn't believe it at all.

But, there's no way, at least people treat you like this, you can't use your cold ass to stick to someone's hot face, right? He could only passively accept Lin Chong's "kindness".

Thinking about it, there are only two things that can be worthy of Lin Chong to do these things.

The first is his identity as the second prince of Chu, in fact, Lin Chong is from Chu? This can be seen from Lin Chong's indifference to his identity as a businessman! After all, the aristocracy generally believed that the merchant did not produce, and relied on the image of speculation, buying low and selling high to make money, and his status in the hearts of the aristocracy was even inferior to that of the peasant who farmed!

When Lin Chong saw him for the first time, he put his posture on the same level as him, which shows that he may have recognized himself as a nobleman in his heart.

It's just that how did he know that he was a noble prince of Chu? After all, the fire in Linzi Bangyue Tower, people all over the world thought that Xu Xiang, the second prince of Chu State, and the five princesses of the East China Sea were buried in the fire.

The second is because he holds the Dragon Order in his hand, which may be the Order of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, and he is doing this to tie himself up?

With the Dragon Order in his hand, except for Jiang Shenyu and Yang Dianfeng, only the people of the Tianlong Division and Xuanyuan Mingyue knew about this matter, and it was impossible for others to know!

Moreover, Lin Chong controlled the Warden Division, so there was no need to befriend the people of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow.

He couldn't figure it out, Lin Chong's figure kept flashing in his mind, he didn't think much about it before, but now he analyzes it carefully and seriously, this Lin Chong is a mystery!

"Xu Changsha, what are you doing? Why don't you eat it? Xiao Xueying, who was feasting, looked at him and asked.

"Nothing!" Xu Xiang hurriedly picked up a piece of duck leg in sauce and ate it to hide his embarrassment.

"Oh!"

She didn't think much of it, and continued to eat until she was full of burps.

"Oh, by the way, come here today, there's one more thing for you." Xiao Xueying said again.

"Miss Ying'er, please speak."

She took out an invitation card from her arms, handed it over and said, "My father wants to invite you to our Xiao Mansion as a guest." ”

“？？？” Xu Xiang opened the invitation with a puzzled face, only to see that it read:

"The mountains and rivers are not old, and the sun and the moon are long. Hearing that Xu Jun is in Changsha and Ningdu, as a businessman, he takes the responsibility of a scholar and saves the homeless people from fire and water! This young talent, benevolence and righteousness, should be a scholar's name! Today, Xiao Xuan prepared a thin wine, and at two o'clock on November 18, he waited for the king to enter the Xiao Mansion and go to the winter banquet! ”

"Miss Ying'er, I don't know your father, why did he invite me?" Xu Xiang put down the invitation card and asked puzzled.

"How do I know? If you ask him yourself, it will be clear. Come here earlier today! Xiao Xueying got up and picked up the wooden box again.

"I've eaten the meal, and the invitation has been delivered, so I'll take my leave first!" She turned around and was about to leave, and as soon as she walked out of the room, she suddenly turned around and said with some embarrassment: "That ......"

"How?"

“…… You know that you want to bring gifts to your door, right? Xiao Xueying seemed to have made up a lot of determination, asked with a red face, and then said a little embarrassedly: "I don't need to prepare gifts for my father and my eldest brother, it's mainly me...... You know, I saved your life before? ”

Xu Xiang was speechless, the previous sentence "Bring gifts to visitors" is a hint, and it is made clear in the back!

Do you want to make it so obvious?

Just as Xu Xiang was about to respond to her, she had already run away quickly!

After eating, Jiang Shenyu was still thinking about Yue Ling, so he proposed to visit him again, and Xu Xiang didn't have anything to do for the time being, so he followed.

Entering the separate room arranged for Yue Ling in the east courtyard, there were already three children in it persuading Yue Ling to eat something. Among the three children, there are two little girls, a little boy, all wearing the new green forging clothes made for them by Jiang Shenyu, usually she divides these children into a group, these three children and Yue Ling are in a group, and the relationship is also the best!

However, Yue Ling didn't pay attention to it, and even turned his head directly inside, not looking at the little friends who had a good time with him.

"Qingluan, Yuanbao, Enron!" Jiang Shenyu called the names of the children.

When the children saw Jiang Shenyu and Xu Xiang coming, they all got up and saluted respectfully: "Master, young master!" ”

"What? Xiaoling still refuses to eat? Xu Xiang asked.

"Young master, only when the master feeds him, will he eat some. No matter how much we convince, it is useless! The little boy named Chen Yuanbao said.

"I'll do it." Jiang Shenyu took the rice bowl from Li Qingluan's hand and said.

She walked to Yue Ling's bedside and said softly, "Xiaoling, come and eat something." ”

"Xiaoling, Master has come to see you. Eat something! Li Qingluan whispered.

Yue Ling still didn't turn his head, he didn't move, his eyes closed and he pretended to be asleep.

In fact, before Xu Xiang entered the door, he saw that he was not asleep, and it was when Jiang Shenyu came over with a bowl that he pretended to be asleep.

He guessed that Yue Ling couldn't get out of the state of self-protection now, so he walked over and said, "Xiaoling, you don't have to worry. That person won't come to trouble you anymore, and I won't ask you about the book. ”

Even if Xu Xiang said this, he still didn't react.

"Xiaoling, I think that as a man, no matter what happens, you can't escape! Your master usually has a lot of things to do, and she will take time to visit you every day, if you continue like this, do you know how disappointed she is? He continued.

No matter what Xu Xiang said or poured him chicken soup, he still didn't react.

Xu Xiang was a little angry, he knew that he must be able to hear his words, but he kept choosing to escape.

"If you're still a man, you should react! Are you worthy of your father in this way? Is it worthy of the high hopes he has placed on you? If you continue like this, all the hopes that the Yue family pinned on you will be burned! Xu Xiang's tone carried a hint of anger and reproach.

"Changsha!" Jiang Shenyu heard his anger and persuaded: "He is still a child, and he is injured again, don't say such serious words!"

"Humph! What's wrong with the child? When Yue Qiong committed suicide in the Warden Division, if he knew that his son, who had high hopes, was now alive like a walking corpse, it would be better to hand over the Pingjing Book, at least he could keep the Yue family's lineage! ”

At this moment, Yue Ling slowly turned over, his eyes were already full of tears, and a hoarse voice came out of his mouth: "That young master...... What am I going to do? ”
