Chapter 34: Dusk

"It can't be!" Xu Shen obviously didn't believe it, "Even if it's him, how did he do it?" ā€

Pu Xiang smiled: "Do you think that the big families all eat white rice?" With the vision of your Xu family, I'm afraid it's really not enough for others to see...... Seeing that this little lady in my arms is not, come on, come on, let her tell you who did all this. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

Mei Jiao Niang was pushed up by Pu Xiang and stood in front of the two men in a daze, disheveled and gloomy.

But obviously Xu Shen is not interested in this, the skin on this lady's hands is rough, and he can understand at a glance that this is probably a peasant woman in the countryside, although she can look good, but her skin is rough, and it is not to his taste...... It's just that Puxiang pushed this woman out, obviously not to stand here for the two of them to watch.

"This is the mother-in-law of a farmer's family in Shanyin County, who was recently taken captive by me, and her temper was hard enough at first, but now, she honestly lets me play with her...... If the opponent is ruthless, you have to be more ruthless than the opponent, at this point, I would like to say that you are obviously inferior to that Wang Ningzhi. Although Puxiang Zhenren's character was unacceptable, his words were right, so Xu Shen had to listen carefully, "Okay, you tell this adult, who spread those rumors?" ā€

"Yes...... It's Wang Jiaerlang...... No, no, no, it's Wang Ningzhi! Puxiang's face turned pale, and Mei Jiaoniang cried and said, "My family Langjun and the Wang family Qu Qian Jiu have an old relationship, and it was my family Langjun and Qian Jiu who cooperated to spread these rumors to the villagers, and I only found out when I overheard them discussing each other." ā€

Puxiang smiled at Xu Shen, dragged Mei Jiaoniang into his arms again, pinched her chin hard, and said, "Lang Jun Lang Jun, isn't you the only Lang Jun in the future?" It seems that after so many days, you are still not honest, but if you want me to say, with the way you are now, even if you are rescued, who wants you, you will settle down and serve me honestly in the future...... Otherwise, I'll kill you! ā€

"Concubines don't ...... Don't dare. Mei Jiao Niang trembled all over, shrinking into the arms of Puxiang Zhenren, like a frightened white rabbit.

Xu Shen couldn't stand it, so he could only turn his gaze in other directions, but now he has no way to go except this road, and it is impossible for the Wang family to let him go!

"Okay, you go first, staying here still frightens the county guard, that's not mine." Puxiang let go of the beautiful girl in his arms and let her go, and then said to Xu Shen, "Let's talk about business now." ā€

"Real person, please speak."

"Take your weapons and equipment, and my side will naturally do things for you, but if you want to get through it, you can't just do it on my side."

"And Xu Shuai's ......"

"Xu Heng?" Puxiang smiled disdainfully, "Xu Heng is just a small fight, it seems to be powerful, but in fact it is the most unreliable...... However, it is indeed a force, even if it is connected to him, this side is the strength of the army, and it is impossible to help you with the affairs of the court. ā€

Hearing Puxiang say this, how could Xu Shen still not understand, and he was a little excited in his heart: "Real people have a way?" ā€

The Yixing Xu clan is not a Johnson family, although it is a scholar family, it is attached to the Yixing Zhou clan. In the past, the Yixing Zhou family and the Wuxing Shen family were known as the two heroes of Jiangdong, and there was even a so-called "Jiangdong Hao, Mo Qiang Zhou and Shen", but later, the Zhou family and the Shen family had a bad relationship with the imperial court, were suppressed, and even the family could not make a living...... In this case, Xu immediately severed ties with Zhou...... So much so that up to now, the Yixing Xu family has an ugly name, is feared, and is in a very embarrassing situation - in this matter, the Wang family is the biggest planner, although Wang Dao has died, it still does not prevent Xu Shen from being hostile to the Wang family.

It's just that now it seems that there is a moat between the bird's nest and the bird's bird.

Xu Shen had an accident, not to mention that there were friends in the court to help, it was Yixing Xu's family, his family, and now they are silent, not even a word of greeting.

"The Wang family is powerful, and there are many people who have offended, although I don't mix with the court, I also have some friends who may be able to help you...... It's just that, with their current status, even if they don't have a bad relationship with the Wang family, they don't have any losses and regrets, so if they want to do it, it's up to you. Puxiang Zhenren looked at Xu Shen excitedly and blinked, "Understandly, it depends on what Jinyan can come up with that is worthy of their attention." ā€

"A friend of a real person?"

"The son of Wen Qiao, the general of the loyal martial arts, Wen Fangzhi; Will be Ji Yu Yao Yu's family, I don't know if you are satisfied? ā€

"Let me think about it." Xu Shen hesitated a little, although he knew in his heart that heavy bleeding was necessary, but it also depended on the object, he was thinking about the stakes of cooperation with the two families, and replied after a while, "General Zhongwu has a gap with the Wang family because of the pacification of Wang Dun, and I can understand the alliance with his son Wen Fangzhi, but will it be the Yu family?" As a middle-class family of Huiji, I have also heard about it in Su Ri, but it is just ...... I have never heard of their grudge with the Wang family, I am afraid that ......"

Puxiang Zhenren shook his head, seeming to be a little disdainful: "You don't have to pay attention to this, I have my own way to persuade the Yu family to contribute...... What I just said, do you understand the core? ā€

Remuneration...... This is a problem.

Xu Shen sighed in his heart, staring at Puxiang Zhenren, this seemingly enthusiastic but actually eats people and does not spit out bones, how can he not understand what he is doing, what he said about the homeless handsome Xu Heng is unreliable, in fact, he is just a raccoon dog.

"I have been in the Huiji business for many years, and I have a little land, which can be used as a remuneration...... I need to see results first, though. ā€

Puxiang's eyes narrowed: "Oh? What results are needed? ā€

"The rumors are clear."

"These are all trivial matters, and I would like to wait for two days for the rumors to be cleared."

……

It is true that although Puxiang Zhenren is a Taoist, he is essentially a homeless handsome, and in this case, he has all the nature of the homeless handsome.

However, as he said, Xu Shen Xu said that the reason why he fell to this point was because he did things that he shouldn't have done and said things that he shouldn't have said - although Xu Shen is still the county guard of Huiji County, his land and property are all there, his wife and concubines are still the same, and even he himself is unharmed.

Only when the sun sets, he stands alone on the rockery in the backyard, looking at the gorgeous sunset, a trace of desolation will emerge.

All things are false, all things are false.

The distant sky seems to hide a giant beast that devours heaven and earth, its body is wrapped in clouds and mist, but it slowly envelops the earth with the night, and opens its bloody mouth to Xu Shen standing on the rockery - or the next moment, he will die without a place to bury!

……

At dusk, the orange light sprinkled over the entire training ground, coating the weapons with a layer of honey.

Xu Lian, who had always disliked the training ground, had to come here, smelling the smell of sweat emanating from the rude homeless soldiers on both sides, so that he had to cover his mouth and nose with a wide-sleeved robe, showing obvious disdain, just because he was the son of Xu Shuai, this group of soldiers did not dare to be embarrassed by his insulting actions, and let him pass by his side and walk to the tent in the center.

"Father." Xu Lian got in, and as soon as he entered, he saw his father Xu Heng shirtless, and there were white salt stains left after the evaporation of sweat on his body, which made him frown subconsciously.

Xu Heng stared at him expressionlessly, since the kidnapping of Wang Ningzhi provoked the Wang family, for this son who was once loved in every way, the more he looked at it now, the more unpleasant he became, especially in the face of himself, this little cub actually frowned with disgust...... He tried his best to hold back his temper, threw the letter in his hand over, and banged on the table to make a knocking sound: "I'll talk about it after reading it!" ā€

It seemed that Xu Heng's face was not good, Xu Lian didn't dare to speak more, and honestly finished reading the content, only then did he raise his head in surprise: "Uncle Yan is finishing?" ā€

"How do you speak?" Xu Heng's face became even worse, "Everything that Su Rili taught you has been left behind!" ā€

"Did Wang Ning do it?"

"I didn't say it, but I guess that even if it's not Wang Ningzhi, it's someone else from the Wang family, after all, it's a first-class family, and you can make a storm all over the city with a casual shot, even the nearby counties are rumored." Xu Heng sighed, looked at his son who couldn't make a weapon, and slapped the table heavily, "It's all because of you, an evil animal, our side is fine, although we are forced to submit to the imperial court, we can run north and take refuge in other countries if we are forced to do so...... But Brother Jinyan, I'm afraid I'm going to be miserable by you. ā€

"It was my uncle who took the initiative to attack the Wang family, what does it have to do with me?"

"You...... If it weren't for your reasons that caused the Wang family to put pressure on him, I would say that the brother would do something to the Wang family? In the face of such a son, Xu Heng had nothing to say, and in the end he didn't beat him, obviously thinking that his son was older, even if he was no longer sensible, he couldn't let him teach him a lesson, he slapped him in anger last time, but when he went back, he was scolded by Xu Lian and his mother for several nights, and he really had a headache, "Anyway, Brother Jinyan suffered from this great disaster, we can help...... If there is an accident to him, his family must be saved. ā€

Xu Lian put down the letter, he was not stupid, he naturally saw that Xu Heng was very angry, so he considered the sentence and said: "Father, don't be too anxious, although the rumors are fierce, but there is no substantial harm, not to mention that my uncle has been operating in Huiji for many years, and there is more righteousness behind him Xu family, that is, the Wang family is really troubled, it is nothing more than being dismissed, and it should be no problem to protect yourself." ā€

"I hope so." Up to now, Xu Heng can only try to think about things in a good direction, but he just thinks about it, as a commander who can lead troops in troubled times, he often prepares for the worst, so he agreed to Xu Lian's words, and continued, "You bring a group of elites to Brother Jinyan's house these days, if you encounter an accident, immediately take his family to break through outside the city, and I will do a good job outside...... Take care of your own safety, and remember to protect yourself when you encounter danger. ā€

Xu Lian's face was bitter, but he had to agree, he just wanted to let his mother make peace with his father after he went back, and not let himself go.

What Xu Shen, can you have your own important?
