Nanjing Yingtianfu, a dignified Ming Dynasty, will have assassins rampant in broad daylight!

If you want to say this, not only Zhang Mao doesn't believe it, Ying Tianfu Yin Wuxiong doesn't believe it, and even Xu Li, Fu Rong, Zheng Qiang and others can't believe it at all. At this moment, when Yiying people gathered in Nanjing Guozijian after Zhang Mao sent the letter, and saw Xu Xun on the bed like a white paper, they all looked at each other for a while. Especially when he learned that the person with the injured arm on the side was Xu Liang, the protagonist of the gossip these days, the expressions on the faces of these bigwigs became even more gloomy after exchanging glances with each other.

As the host, Zhang Mao had already inquired about the matter from Xu Liang first. At this time, he invited everyone to sit in the front room, he cleared his throat and explained everything that happened, and finally asked Xu Liang if he had anything to add. Seeing that Xu Liang, who had drunk the sobering soup, obviously still hadn't fully recovered his senses, he said in a deep voice: "The doctor just said that if it is an inch off, it is the heart, and there is no luck in making a decision; If it was half an inch deeper, that arm would be useless, but now fortunately, it didn't hurt the meridians, and it only took a while to recover. But this thing is really sensational, although this kid has not gone to school, but he has always been a noble and ancient way, how can someone who is good and decent be unfavorable to him? And the previous rumors, what's going on? ”

Noble character? Warm-hearted? Fu Rong listened to these eight-character comments, even if he had always valued Xu Xun, at the moment it was more of a sense of ridicule. To be able to get such a comment from Zhang Mao, any Shilin student would sharpen his head and fight for it, but Xu Xun actually got it by a light and clever way, plus he escaped today, it was really first-class luck. However, when he thought of today's incident that almost ruined his arrangement and ruined the important matter of the eunuch Xiao Jing, the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, he suddenly sank his face again.

Seeing that everyone present was looking at him, Yin Wuxiong of Yingtianfu, who rushed over with illness, was full of exhaustion, but he still cheered up and said: "Such a horrific thing has happened, since it should be investigated thoroughly, it will be handled by the Beicheng Terracotta Division and Shangyuan County." The first Xu Jin went to Ying Tianfu to raise the matter, Shen Tuiguan had just said it, and he was convicted and hanged with a mound. As for the shameless mother in his family, he roared to the court and convicted him. As for the rumors......"

"Rumors aren't all rootless trees."

With these words, Chen Lu lifted the curtain and entered the room. He is no longer only the commander of the Jinyi Guard, but is ordered to assist the Nanjing Jinyi Guard, so although he is not enough to be on a par with everyone here, he already has enough right to speak. At this time, after shaking at everyone, he cleared his throat and said, "I have caught all the dogs that Xu Jin sent to dig the grave, and I told the truth with a whip. Xu Liang, when he went to dig, he found that your son's coffin was indeed empty, it was true, and it was not nonsense. Everyone and I are in Jinyiwei, and you can be arraigned at any time, or you can let Xu Jin identify you. ”

At this point, there is no fool here, and naturally they all understand that what has been going on these days is likely to be the truth. Seeing that everyone was silent one by one, Zhang Mao frowned and said, "These are all circumstantial evidence. ”

"Not really."

Wu Xiong interjected, and when he saw that everyone was looking at him again, he signaled to Shen Tuiguan who was standing next to him, and saw Shen Tuiguan come forward with several documentary evidence, including the midwife who delivered Xu Liang's son back then, the old servant who served Xu Xun when he was a child, the helper who hired a grave at the beginning, and the doctor who treated Xu Liang's son...... There are seven or eight testimonies. Seeing that everyone had passed it on one by one, Wu Xiongcai spoke again: "This is all found by Xu Jin, of course, some people will say that he has been planning for a long time." To be honest, I don't believe it either, but Xu Xun's long life experience is not a solution, so it's better for you to check it out, Lord Chen. ”

Fu Rong unexpectedly thought that Wu Xiong had gently and skillfully pushed this matter over, and he was overjoyed for a while, and immediately said to Chen Lu: "Lord Wu said so, you go and investigate." Our family doesn't care whose son he is, we only know that this child is loyal and benevolent, and he is the life-saving benefactor of my son. By the way, you will also investigate this case today. If you don't use the brocade guard to ride for such a big thing, when will you have to use it? ”

Even Zhang Mao, who was most disgusted with the three words of Jinyiwei, acquiesced when he heard this. Xu Li, the Duke of Wei, who had never opened his mouth, looked at Xu Liang at this time and asked, "Although this assassin is strange today, how can you notice that you are drunk?" ”

"I ......" Xu Liang saw that everyone present was looking at him, he thought of the danger at that time, and wanted to bring things out as they were, but when the words came to his lips and remembered those past events, he finally had to choose to be vague, "Don't hide it from your lords, I was born in a military family, but I am not the eldest son, so I failed to inherit the military position, but in my early years, I practiced arching and horses, and I also followed my elders to chase and suppress bandits." Bandits often whistle with each other, and I heard this sound in the alley, so I was a little wary, but I didn't expect it to be a bow and arrow......"

How could it be a bow and arrow? When he got the news and rushed over, he found that there were clearly broken crossbow parts left! What's more, even if Xu Liang has chased and suppressed bandits, it is impossible for him to be familiar to this extent, unless he has some unforgettable memories from his childhood!

Chen Lu's face changed suddenly, and when he saw that the other people were frowning, he felt for a moment that Xu Liang, the bad old man, was smarter than he imagined. Seeing that everyone else was still groaning, Fu Rong immediately said conclusively: "Let Chen Lu investigate this matter carefully, I think as Xu Liang said, most of it is the work of bandits." After all, in response to the great drought in Tianfu, it is common for hungry people to become thieves. It's just that this bandit will not break out in broad daylight and hurt people for no reason, and someone will inevitably collude with the bandits. Xu Liang, you go back with our family. ”

Hearing this, several first-class bigwigs looked at each other for a while, and they all nodded. After a while, everyone took their leave.

Ying Tianfu came to Wu Xiong, Xu Zhen and Shen Tuiguan, all the way; Fu Rong wanted to take Xu Xun back, but now that the person hadn't woken up, Zhang Mao said that he would leave someone in his official office to recuperate, so he didn't force it, but took Xu Liang away; As for Xu Li, he caught up with Fu Rong without saying a word after going out, and insisted on walking all the way; But after a while, the huge room was already empty, and only Zhang Mao was left.

"What a disaster...... Alas, if the Jiangnan atmosphere is like this, it would be nice to have a few more such young men! ”

Xu Xun woke up from time to time, and it was not until the evening of the third day that he fully woke up. When Zhang Mao rushed over, he learned that he was actually recuperating from his injuries in the official mansion of the old gentleman of the country, and it was a full three days, and he was a little confused, and he couldn't figure out what was going on now. Listening to Zhang Mao's explanation of this unwarranted disaster, he learned that public opinion on the streets of Nanjing had already shown signs of one-sided overnight.

These days, the fact that he is Xu Liang's son seems to have become an ironclad certainty. But everyone is touting his boundless filial piety there, why still resolutely block the arrow for his biological father Xu Liang without knowing his background, and he said it vividly as if he had seen it in person! God knows if he was only hit by an arrow, when did he block an arrow?

Xu Xun went into the water with injuries to save Fu Hengan, Zhang Mao had heard of it, but it was far less than the risk of stealing into the Guozijian to drink people as a slap in the face, so that Zhang Mao appreciated it. The previous emperor rewarded Zhao Qin's mansion to Xu Xun to reward his filial piety and compensate his fiancée Shen for jumping into the river, and Xu Xun lent it to him after accepting it, but he didn't take a penny, and named it to poor students to take the township examination and the literary meeting, etc., he inevitably appreciated this young man who understood the righteousness more. Now he heard this argument from Xu Liang with his own ears, and it was also said by him, a well-educated Confucian, so even if Xu Xun's face was still dazed, he naturally regarded it as the result of being injured and unconscious for too long.

"That's good, the old man really didn't mistake you! You take good care of your injuries, Father-in-law Fu has already sent your two little servants over, and you can live with peace of mind with the old man. ”

"Thank you, Lord Zhang."

"Thank you, the old man is just making a house, just a gesture. If it weren't for the fact that the imperial court had just praised your filial piety once, you should have praised and praised your righteous deeds this time, thinking that the folk model was! ”

Although his head was still confused, Xu Xun was still humble at once, and when he saw Zhang Mao come out of the room, Ruisheng rushed forward and threw himself on the bed, his nose twitched for a while, and he was about to cry, and he quickly bent his fingers and flicked it on the little guy's head.

"Okay, okay, don't be busy crying just yet. My mind is messing up, tell me what is going on outside, and I need to be detailed. Tao Hong, Latham & Watkins doesn't understand, you remember to add supplements. ”

It turns out that Xu Xun's precautionary words are absolutely necessary. Although Latham snorted hard to stop his tears, he loved to cry since he was a child, and he didn't have a coherent surname in his words, and Tao Hong was there most of the time to explain.

As a matter of being studious and progressive, Tao Hong's speech is extremely clever. From that time, Xu Liang was lonely and the child was seriously ill and couldn't bear to bury it, so he entrusted it to Xu Bian; From Xu Bian found that the child was still angry and took to the field for medical treatment, but after returning, it happened that Xu Liang left home for some reason, because there was no child under his knees, he took the child back as if he were his own, and he went out again after a short time, and has not been heard from since; From the fact that Master Xu was vaguely aware, so he took advantage of this in the ancestral hall to make trouble, and after Zhao Qin's defeat, Xu Jin was hated by the rod, so he prepared a complete range of documentary evidence, and the doglegs sent to the mound were taken by Jinyi Wei and sent to Yingtianfu Ya...... The little guy said it vividly, if it weren't for Xu Xun being the person concerned, he would simply feel that this was a bloody eight-o'clock family ethics drama.

"Okay, forget about these, then I'll give Xu ...... What's going on with the uncle blocking the arrow? ”

For a while, Xu Xun still couldn't change his words, so he could only shout first. However, at this time, Latham and Tao Hong looked at him with strange expressions. After a while, Ruisheng reached out and probed Xu Xun's forehead, touched himself seriously, and said strangely at the end: "Young Master doesn't have a fever, is it because he has been asleep for too long and forgotten such an important matter?" ”

Tao Hong was finally smarter than Ruisheng, and seeing that Xu Xun's face was a little dark, he hurriedly said: "Young master, it was Grandpa Liang who said it to Zhang Saijiu himself, and Zhang Saijiu relayed it to Duke Fu of Wei Guo Gonggong Zheng Gonggong Wu and so on, so everyone said so." ”

It was Xu Liang who said it! But at that time, if Xu Liang hadn't escaped with him unstoppable, his life would have been given a long time ago, why did Xu Liang reverse the facts...... Wait, that's to make it difficult for others to question in the future, it's for him to build momentum!

After figuring this out, Xu Xun only felt a burst of heat in his heart, and suddenly buried his head between his hands, and couldn't say anything. Xu Liang was afraid that he really concluded that he was the son he thought was sick and died, coupled with the affection and trust of these sons, so he spared no effort to push the momentum up again, but this kind of affection is too heavy, for him who has always adhered to conspiracy theories in everything, until now, he still can't fully believe that there is such a coincidence in this world.

After a long silence, he suddenly spoke tiredly and sent Ruisheng and Tao Hong away, while he leaned on the thick cushions and was distracted. I don't know how long it took, but he suddenly heard a noise outside, and immediately after, a figure in black suddenly rushed into the room with agility. Having just encountered an assassin, he instinctively wanted to open his mouth, but he was stunned when he saw his face.

It's Shen Yue!
