"How did this news leak out!"

The death of Zhao Qin, a great henchman, also stopped for a while, so Fu Rong could be said to be comfortable and comfortable, but he never thought that the things he had planned properly would suddenly happen. The rumors spread from Taipingli to Qiwang Street and Sanshan Street, and the entire South City and West City have been spread. It's just the people, but you must know that many of the officials who really do things live in this vicinity, so how can they not know?

"Father-in-law, I went to check, and it was the people in the Xu family's room who spread the news first. They shouldn't really know, but they are venting their anger with the intention of destroying Xu Xun's reputation. ”

In the study, when Chen Lu, who has always been cold-faced, said this, his face was a little uncomfortable, and he pleaded guilty while talking: "It's all my negligence, I think I just wanted to save some face for the Xu family in Taipingli, so that Xu Xun would lose his reputation and retribution, so the mother and son in the Xu family's room killed one and set fire to the other, in fact, they were all sentenced lightly, but they just made them ruined and suffered from the board, and if they knew this, they should have been completely unable to make a sound." ”

"What's the use of talking about that now!"

Fu Rong snorted coldly and sat down, but the angry expression just now was gone. He thoughtfully picked up the pair of warm jade balls on the table and slowly rotated them in his palm, and only after a while did he speak: "Forget it, it's not all good to make a fuss, in case Xu Bian is still alive, he won't be able to hide it at this time." Didn't Xu Xun not believe it in the first place? In this way, it is not at all unobtrusive for all kinds of witnesses to come out. Xu's family room is just right, our family is still worried that we can't find a substitute for the dead ghosts, they are ready-made! At that time, our family came forward to handle the matter of Xu Xun's recognizance of his biological father, and invited the Duke of Wei Guocheng, Lao Zheng, and Zhang Mao's Qingliu to come over, so that there are fewer hidden dangers than before. ”

"Father-in-law is wise, how could I not have thought of this!"

"Don't pat yourself on the back to make our family happy, it's strange if you can't think of it! Our family is just angry that we have been calculated by this kind of cat and dog guy, and we are not happy! Fu Rong has always regarded Chen Lu as a nephew, and often unabashedly reveals his original surname in front of him, and after scolding with a smile, seeing Chen Lu sneering, he pursed his lips in disgust, "Our family doesn't want to see that family jumping on the ground in Jinling again, and after this incident passes, you will clean up their nest of snakes and rats for our family!" ”

"Yes, father-in-law, don't worry!"

That day, because Huitong took the initiative to ask Ying, Xu Xun also wanted to see the true skills of this old Xichang expert, so the surname Suo put aside his hand and let him toss. This uproar together, he only felt that this monk was simply carved out of a mold with himself, as if he was afraid that the matter was not big enough, a set of rumors were contradictory, and there were also mutually compatible, some spoke for him, and some poured dirty water on him, all kinds of versions were dazzling and dizzying, plus the good deeds in the market were spread falsely, and now in the south and west of the city, just catch someone and ask, nine out of ten will say a piece of the Xu family's father-son turmoil in Taiping. Even in Fu Rong's eunuch's mansion, where the rules were strictest, most of the subordinates looked strange when they saw him, and their eyes flickered.

Fu Rong took Xu Liang and Xu Xun to his home the previous time, only saying that he was repaying his son's life-saving benefactor, and when he asked his henchmen to teach the two of them etiquette, he also arranged a gardener's errand for Xu Liang to confuse the public, and Xu Xun was arranged in that library building. So, at the moment, together with this turmoil, few people are muttering in the ears of the young master.

At this time, the eldest girl Lu'er combed Fu Jin's hair at the same time, and said in her mouth: "Miss, if you want to say that the world is really impermanent, Xu Qigongzi is handsome, and the master loves him, how can he be the son of Xu Liang's old gardener?" ”

"Nothing in this world is impossible." Fu Jin frowned unhappily, and when she saw that Lu'er stuck out her tongue and didn't say anything, she instructed lightly, "Moreover, don't spread anything without any basis in the future, otherwise if Daddy blames it, you will suffer hardship." ”

Lu'er has always been the most favored girl by Fu Jin's side, although she was blamed, she didn't know where she got the courage at this time, and after a while, she went around to the other side and whispered: "But Miss, that's fine." The lord appreciated Xu Qigongzi a little too much, and he actually kept people at home all the time, and people said that the lord regarded people as fast sons-in-law of Chenglong. Now that this matter has come out, the master will not joke about your life's events......"

Before he finished speaking, he only heard a clanging sound, and it was Fu Jin who smashed the pearl hairpin in his hand, and the large and small round pearls on it rolled all over the ground. Lu'er, who was stunned, saw Fu Jin Huo Ran get up and glared at her angrily, and it took a while to come to her senses, and she hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed and begged for mercy. However, Fu Jin, who has always been kind and pleasant, didn't even look at her at all, and called a housekeeper's mother, and ordered to drag people down without saying a word.

Although she is an adopted daughter, Fu Jin was brought up by the Huang family when she was brought into the eunuch's mansion in the town, and her adoptive father doted on her brother and loved her, and she was innocent on her face, but she was smart and clear, and she thought of herself very high in her bones. After she told her mother to drag people away, she immediately went to her adoptive mother, and hugged Huang's knee to cry for a while, and Huang was also furious for a while, and immediately ordered Lu'er to be sold far away, and ordered the upper and lower levels not to discuss Xu Xun's affairs, and Lu'er was the end. After this rectification, the house was silent for a while, but when Fu Rong heard about it, although he was angry that those Diao slaves dared to spread such words, he couldn't help but sigh in the end.

"It's easy to break just now, and when you hear these gossip, you make a big fuss, this girl...... Too proud. ”

Although Xu Xun didn't know about such a small turmoil, the people of the Fu family saw that he had changed from the initial tendency to avoid snakes and scorpions, and he naturally wouldn't be unaware of it. Fu Rong was as always, and summoned him every once in a while to talk about the customs and geography of the capital, the sophistication of the people, the bigwigs, the big families, etc., but in the past, he would occasionally make fun of his daughter Fu Jin, but he didn't mention it at all for the past few days. In the face of such a change, Xu Xun was relieved, and the whole person even walked a lot briskly.

This street rumor spread for more than half a month in a blink of an eye, and gradually the nose and eyes became more and more presentable. So, Xu Li, the Duke of Wei, who was dismissive of this earlier, was the first to lose his breath, and personally came to the door to talk to Fu Rong for a long time, followed by Zheng Qiang uninvited. And the Guozi priest Jiu Zhangmao asked Fu Hengan to bring a message to Xu Xun, saying that there must be a reason for the groundless wind, and asked him to close the door and thank the guests to study hard; Yin Wuxiong of Yingtianfu, who was sick in bed, asked Xu Yu to take Xu Xun to see him, and taught that it was important to trace the source of rumors, but rumors stopped at wise men and so on.

When such a thing was about to be known all over the city, on the side of the Xu family's long house in Taipingli, Xu Jin, who was resentful because of the board, actually made someone do something that made everyone in Nanjing dumbfounded. Early in the morning, before the stick sores had healed, he was carried to the door of Yingtianfu's ya, and the drum of the complaint was beaten again. Within an hour, all the bigwigs on the ground in Jinling got the news.

"This crazy dog, he actually dared to dig the grave of Xu Liang's son!"

Not to mention that Fu Rong was surprised, even Xu Xun was unexpected. Seeing that Xu Liang learned that Xu Jin complained in the yamen that the thin coffin in his son's grave was empty, it can be seen that he gave his son to Xu Bian back then, deliberately confusing the Xu family's bloodline, and immediately rushed out from sluggishness to rage, and then rushed out like a gust of wind, Xu Xun didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly pulled his legs and chased after him. However, Xu Liang rushed to the stable and directly untied a horse, but he didn't even use the saddle bridle, cut a rope and rode out like this, he had just learned to ride a horse slowly, and he could only wait for the groom in the stable to prepare another horse for him.

However, he did not go straight to Ying Tianfuya, but went out of Changfu Street and went around in a circle, first went to Liren Street and found Huitong directly. Seeing that the monk was also taken aback at first, he then angrily said that this plan was not instigated by him, he understood that the monk had a friendship with Xu Lianglao after all, and he would definitely not secretly instruct Xu Jin to do this in order to make things real, so he didn't have time to say more, so he turned his horse's head and went straight to Yingtianfuya. As a result, as soon as he got off the horse at the door, he learned that Xu Liang had just rushed into the torture hall and slapped Xu Jin and fainted.

"This Uncle Xu ......"

Muttering these four words in his mouth, Xu Xun could understand Xu Liang's impulse in his heart. If anyone dared to dig up the graves of his parents back then, he would definitely beat people into pigs' heads without saying a word. So, under the guidance of the errand officer, he went to the execution hall, and saw that Shen Tuiguan at the back of the public case had a rigid face, and Xu Liang was held down by three or four errand officers, as for Xu Jin on the stretcher on the side, he didn't know who was there, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said a few good words. Fortunately, Shen Tuiguan was just annoyed that Xu Liang trespassed into the court, but he hated Xu Jin even more for his unscrupulous means, so he just scolded Xu Liang a few words and stopped pursuing it, but ordered Xu Jin, who was unconscious, to be imprisoned for the crime of making a mound, and drove out all the small servants who carried Xu Jin from Yingtianfu.

When the matter came to this, all parties were in an uproar, and the Xu family's long house in Taiping was even more of a mess. Followed Xu Jin to the small house of Yingtianfu Ya, only one went home to report the news, and the rest ran away, after the old man Xu learned about it, he simply fell down and fainted, and after the people were pinching people and pouring cold water for a long time, he woke up slowly, and learned that Mrs. Xu actually went to the yamen to make noise, he smiled bitterly and burst out with difficulty: "Send someone to invite the third master of the patriarch, I want to divorce my wife, I want to expel that rebel son from the house!" ”

Whether it is a divorce wife or a son in the long house, Xu Xun, who helped Xu Liang out of the Ying Tianfu Ya, has no time to pay attention to it. Although this matter is the handiwork of Huitong, but he picked it up from the beginning, and now he saw Xu Liang's lost soul, and he couldn't help but feel deep self-blame for a while.

"Uncle, it's all my ......"

"Don't say anything." Xu Liang spit out these words dryly, and then twisted his neck stiffly to look at Xu Xun, "Accompany me to drink." ”
