Wen Xuan and Shen Fu stayed awake all night, and talked deeply in the study all night, as for the content of their conversation, the people outside did not know anything.

It wasn't until dawn on the second day that Wen Xuan pushed open the door and stretched out tiredly.

The person guarding the door also changed from Tie Niu to Mu Chong, and only after hearing the creak of the door did he raise his eyebrows and ask, "Are you done talking?" ”

Wen Xuan nodded and said, "Brother Mu has worked hard, what about Tie Niu?" ”

"He stayed on guard all night, and I just came over to replace him not long ago."

"Since the mountain has been traveled for a long time, everyone should rest here for a day."

"You're welcome." Shen Fu also walked out of the study at this time, and shook his head and smiled bitterly after hearing Wen Xuan's words, but then thought of the result of the long talk between the two last night, and Shen Fu became relieved.

If this gamble can be successful, his ambition will be useful!

"Uncle Shen, you've worked hard all night, go and rest." Shen Fu has always been very good to his subordinates, and he has a deep relationship with this housekeeper who has watched him grow up since he was a child.

Immediately afterwards, he called his subordinates to prepare breakfast for Wen Xuan and the others, and then went back to the room to rest.

Although Sheng Wenyu and the others were curious about what Wen Xuan and Shen Fu were talking about, they couldn't bear to ask, and Wen Xuan also sold it and did not take the initiative to tell the details for the time being.

The four of them didn't expect this trip to be able to come so soon, but Sheng Wenyu's wish, fortunately, there was still some time before the appointment in Huzhou, so they decided to rest in Shenzhuang for a day, and they could also let Sheng Wenyu's sister and brother spend more time together.

Wen Xuan went to the guest room and slept soundly, and immediately continued to drag Shen Fu to the study to talk about things after waking up.

It wasn't until the end of the hour that there was a quick knock on the door outside the study, which interrupted the two of them, who had been deducing and calculating repeatedly.

It was the old housekeeper Shen Bo who knocked on the door, and he was panting for breath with a big face at the moment.

"Uncle Shen? What is so anxious? After Shen Fu pushed open the door, he saw Shen Bo's panicked look, and his heart sank, the old housekeeper had experienced ups and downs in his life, if it wasn't for something big happening, he wouldn't be so nervous.

Shen Bo's sunken eyes were full of anxiety, but after seeing Wen Xuan still sitting in the study, he was silent.

"You don't have to shy away from Wen Gongzi in the future." Shen Fu immediately commanded.

Only then did Shen Bo pull Shen Fu's sleeve and enter the house, uncomfortably revealing his head full of white hair and looking outside, and after confirming that no one had found it, he closed the door and said, "Owner, something is wrong." ”

"Don't panic, speak slowly." Shen Fu's expression remained calm.

Uncle Shen licked his dry lips and said hurriedly: "Our master's death day is approaching, and the old man Lu from Fenhu specially came to pay respects, how did I expect that when Shenshi arrived outside Gui'an County today, there was a disaster!" ”

"Woe? Could it be that he has encountered a wicked person who stands in the way? ”

"If you encounter an ordinary thief, it will be easy to deal with, and the old man Lu, who is rich in thousands of family fortunes, will find a way to send it away."

"Then where did the misfortune you speak of come from?" Shen Fu's heart rose with an ominous premonition, for rich businessmen and landlords like them, what they were most afraid of was a disaster that could not be solved with money.

"Old man Lu has always been flamboyant, this trip to worship our master originally wanted to give the Shen family face, so this time he brought a lot of entourage, who would have thought that the county Daru Huachi, who was on duty in name today, happened to bring a lot of soldiers to the county to inspect suddenly, and the two groups collided together.

This Daru Huachi was worried that there was no place to make money, and when he saw such a fat sheep in his mouth, he sent troops to intercept it without saying a word, and arrested Old Man Lu with a casual crime. ”

"Really? How did you know about Shen Shi now? ”

"This Daru Huachi in Gui'an County is too desperate, and none of the servants and subordinates accompanying Old Man Lu have been spared, and they have all been arrested, just because they are afraid that someone will go back to report and cut off his financial route.

Old Man Lu knew that he had suffered a great disaster this time, and sent his henchmen to escape from prison desperately, just to ask us for help. ”

"What about the people who ask for help?" Shen Fu asked urgently.

"Rest assured, it was my son who was keeping vigil today, and when he found him, he immediately hid him in the firewood room and was not seen by others."

"That's very good."

Shen Fu was a little relieved, but he also immediately realized the difficulty of this matter, this old man Lu was his father's best friend before his death, and he was not less helped by the Lu family when he went to Pingjiang Road to do business.

Now that the head of the Lu family has encountered a disaster in order to come to worship his father, he must have come to the rescue because of his feelings, but the Lu family is a famous family in Fenhu, and since this Dalu Huachi is eyeing this piece of fat, he will never let go easily.

"Do people have to be saved?" If something happens to the Shen family, Wen Xuan naturally won't care.

Shen Fu nodded with a gloomy face, "The Lu family is kind to our Shen family, even if they risk their lives, they will save people." ”

After hearing this, Wen Xuan immediately said to the old housekeeper: "Please ask Uncle Shen to call my three brothers." ”

"Young Master Wen, you don't have to ......" Before Shen Fu finished speaking, Wen Xuan interrupted him and said with a smile: "Don't you have to stir up this muddy water?" Now that you are on my thief ship, I should protect you. ”

Shen Fu was a little moved in his heart, it seemed that he had not chosen the wrong person.

Although Uncle Shen had never dealt with Wen Xuan and the others, seeing that the owner of the village respected them so much, they must all be some heroes of the rivers and lakes, and the chances of success in this matter could be greater if they could get their help, so he agreed with a happy face, and hurriedly left the study to find the three of them.

After a short time, Sheng Wenyu and the three of them were all seated in the study.

"What's the best way to do it now?" Sheng Wenyu asked his brother-in-law, the affairs of the Shen family are naturally his business now, and there is no reason not to do his best.

"What can be done about this? was targeted by that group of thieves, and if you don't die, you have to shed your skin. Tie Niu hated Yuan Bing and muttered in his mouth.

"If Lord Shen Zhuang is willing to abandon his family and property for Old Man Lu, the brothers can directly rob him out, looking at the size of the world, there will be a place where the Yuan soldiers can't reach." Mu Chong suggested snatching it from Yuan Bing.

"No, at this time, a person who just escaped from the prison came out to report the news, the Yuan soldiers will definitely strengthen the guards, now is the time when the guards are the most stringent, and robbing the prison is tantamount to throwing yourself into the net." Wen Xuan shook his head, after two encounters with Yuan Bing, he knew very well how difficult these officials of the Yuan Court were.

Sheng Wenyu touched his chin and said, "Since brute force can't work, I can only try to start from within the Yuan soldiers." Brother-in-law, yesterday I saw that you had a good relationship with those two officials, can they help? ”
