Under the three magnificent gatehouses of the eunuch's mansion in Changfu Street, the four gatehouses that stood to greet people from all over the world were all pushed in, and were replaced by sturdy soldiers every ten steps, which was a scene of slaughter. Faced with such a situation, when the news came from inside that Fu Rong was not a guest, although Chen Lu had a very bad face, he still took the three or five entourages and turned around and left, but he did not stop for a single step.

It wasn't until he galloped out of Changfu Street, and turned through Hubu Street to the door of his own house in Huowa Lane, that he was not busy dismounting his horse, but he sat so high and immediately fell into deep thought.

When it came to this, it was undoubtedly in the wrestling of the capital, Fu Rong and even those big men behind him were defeated and lost, otherwise the right man of Dali Temple would not be so arrogant. If Fu Rongdu is still not guaranteed, he has already been dismissed by those Qingliu Ming Song, where is there any good end?

"Damn!"

Two words burst out hatefully, and Chen Lu suddenly dropped the reins and jumped off the horse neatly. He was about to go straight to the door, when he suddenly heard a voice from behind him, Lord Chen, and when he turned his head, he frowned. I saw Xu Xun walking forward slowly with Ruisheng, and the master and servant didn't know when they arrived. Before today, he would at least treat Yan Yue with him, but at this time, he really didn't have any mood to deal with this kid, so he said coldly: "I've been very busy these days, and I don't have time to pay attention to your business!" ”

"I know that Lord Fei of Dali Temple is here, and Lord Chen has no time to take care of him, but can you take the time to listen to me?"

Chen Lu was about to leave without looking back, but when he heard this without taking two steps, he couldn't help but stand up immediately. This Fei Kai's sudden visit to the Eunuch's Mansion was not long ago, and it was still very early for it to spread throughout Nanjing City, how did Xu Xun know? Thinking of this, he turned around and looked at the young man for a long time, and finally nodded: "Come in!" ”

These four houses are the properties purchased by Chen Zusheng in the Nanjing garrison in the past, and it is not only Chen Lu who lives there, but also his nephews Chen Jue and Chen Zhang, so the whole house is separated into three roads, so that the pattern is small, not to mention that it cannot be compared with the Kaiping palace in the past, it is just a little more spacious than the middle family.

Chen Lu, the master, obviously said the same, and took Xu Xun Ruisheng all the way in, except for the salute, none of the subordinates came forward, until they passed through the corridor and entered a moon door, facing three thatched hut-style houses, and then a little boy stepped forward to salute.

"Sir."

"Go outside and look, except for the news from Grandpa Fu, everything else will be blocked."

After Chen Lu said this, he entered the center door first, and when he saw Xu Xun and Ruisheng coming in with him, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. At this time, Xu Xun had no choice but to explain: "Lord Chen, Latham is going to enter the palace, so there are some things that I don't avoid him. ”

This has two meanings, one is to show trust, and the other is to let Latham learn to deal with people more, how could Chen Lu not hear it. After sweeping back and forth between Xu Xun and Ruisheng, he nodded lightly, didn't say anything, and entered the East House with his hands behind his back. At this time, Xu Xun looked around distractedly, the outside was a thatched house, and the furniture inside was extremely simple. Only at this time, he didn't have time to think about this, Chong Ruisheng whispered a few words, and then led people to follow up with the East House.

The east room is as simple as the outside, and there are no bookshelves or thousands of books, but instead there are a few weapons hanging on the four walls. Chen Lu, who was sitting in the only chair, saw Xu Xun walk forward, as if he was not surprised that there was no second seat here, so he nodded lightly.

"Since you know about the arrival of Fei Kai in Dali Temple, I might as well be honest with you. Gonggong Fu guarded the gate of the eunuch's mansion, I don't know what rhetoric he used to move Chengguo Gong to send people to guard, so in a short period of time, the people outside couldn't get in, and the people inside couldn't get out. He is a Qincha, and if he really wants to tear his face to investigate, no one can help it. I have a lot of work to do, and if you have anything to say, don't beat around the bush. ”

"Yes, Lord Chen wants to have heard about Zhao Qin's lawlessness in the countryside in the engineering department. Coincidentally, I happened to find a bitter master who had been robbed of his land and property, and his wife and daughter were also forced to die. ”

If it weren't for the sudden appearance of such a messenger, and this envoy suddenly acted like this, Fu Rong was in danger at this moment, he went to the Guozijian to see Fu Hengan in the morning, and then got some bad information from those porters and miscellaneous servants, Xu Xun would not have picked this time to find Chen Lu. If the tree falls, he will be a rootless wanderer again.

Chen Lu sent out his only few henchmen for nearly a month, and apart from countless rumors and hearsay, he found almost nothing, and the only gain was that some villagers were talking about Zhao Qin's rebellion. It is unknown whether this kind of illusory words can be effective in the capital, and Fu Rong is now under house arrest, so he is depressed in his heart. Hearing Xu Xun's words clearly at this time, he could hardly suppress himself from standing up, and sat down again before his ass left the chair.

Although he was in a mood, he didn't ask Xu Xun how he found someone, but only raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is this true?" ”

"Naturally, take it seriously." Striking while the iron was hot, Xu Xun arched his hand again and said, "I have already gone to see him, and I said that he came forward......"

"If only it had been a few days earlier, let him come forward to sue again, at least half the effort!"

Seeing that Chen Lu shook his head and interrupted his words, Xu Xun said word by word: "If you want him to come forward to file a complaint, at least you have to submit the petition first, and the yamen will accept it, I don't know how much time it will take to drag it out like this." What's more, those yamen who received the paper were not something that Lord Chen could easily control, and it was difficult to say what things would be at that time. And he would rather crash into a fish and die because of the death of his wife and daughter, but more bitter masters are afraid of power and dare not come forward to testify. Therefore, only if the matter is really big this time, it is possible for other bitter masters to flock out, and the matter is full of turmoil, see what kind of Qincha is still not just staring at Fu Gonggong! ”

It was only at this time that Chen Lu finally stood up. Although he was very dissatisfied with Xu Xun actually going to see the bitter master in person, thinking about his youth and knowledge, it was already very good to do this, so he didn't pick this stubble, and paced back and forth for a long time, he stopped and said: "No wonder Gonggong Fu said that you are bold, you say, how do you want to make trouble in the city?" ”

Although it was not the first time he had heard that idea, at this moment, seeing that Xu Xun stepped forward to discuss with Chen Lu without hesitation, Chen Lu was first surprised, then nodded, and even pointed out a few words from time to time, and Latham on the side couldn't help but smack his tongue.

The young master's courage is really great!

Shen Jiazheng Hall.

Shen Guang looked at the letterhead in his hand, his eyes lingered on the handwriting on the back of the paper for a long time, and finally he crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it on the ground in anger, and said angrily: "Joke, this gift has been received, what did he say Zhao Qin will kill himself if he does more injustice, saying that I will ask for hardship if I marry my daughter, even if I can't cancel the marriage, I might as well delay it for a few days, he thinks I, Shen Guang, am a three-year-old child!" If this person can really support Xu Xun, why should he hide his head and tail in the Xu family's ancestral hall, and finally ask Gonggong Fu to clean up the mess? Now that Gonggong Fu is in danger, he stood up again and said this, ridiculous! ”

Lu Quan, the big butler who was standing on the side, saw that the old man was angry, and hurriedly asked in a solemn voice: "Master, but the eldest young master also said ......."

"What does he know! He hasn't even passed the exam, how can he know the methods of those officials in this world! Yue'er's girl, I thought I didn't know her eldest brother she instigated in private, but I still have a way, how could I be willing to marry my own daughter to that kind of family? Sheltering homeless people and so on is indeed not a top-notch crime, I'm afraid that I won't obey any of them, the Zhao family has intensified the arrangement of other crimes, and in the end, those three granges still have to be handed away! It is expected that the Zhao family is also an official eunuch, and the daughter-in-law who is marrying Ming Media will not be treated harshly......"

Seeing Shen Guang say this, with a helpless tired face, Lu Quan sighed secretly, and had to force his spirit and ask again: "Master, the preparations for the marriage ......?"

"Of course it's business as usual!" Shen Guang took a deep breath and said categorically, "And that Li Qingniang, staying by Yue'er's side is a scourge." I have kept her for a few more days, and I still say that I will never tolerate her any more, and I will get her out immediately! ”

"But if the eldest lady goes to cry to the old lady and pleads for mercy......"

"At home, her father marries her husband, and if she makes her surname, she will go with her, and the old lady will never be arrogant to her at this time...... In this way, confine her in the room, tell Ruyi to take a good look at her for me, and if something goes wrong, even she will be killed! ”

In the backyard of Shen Yue's boudoir, Ruyi and the others were separated, Shen Yue held Li Qingniang's hand tightly, and only smiled reluctantly for a while: "The eldest brother was locked up by my father, but I didn't expect him to send such a letter again." It's a pity that when it comes to this, my father will never listen to it. ”

"Don't worry, eldest lady, if you think about it carefully, you should understand."

"No, my dad, I know better than you." Shen Yue shook his head vigorously, and then said word by word, "I heard my father inadvertently reveal a sentence, my ancestor and Shen Wansan back then seem to be a little related, and the God of Wealth must not die well, so the most feared thing for so many generations of the Shen family is to be remembered by the officials." Now Zhao Qin has the support of Peng Duxian, the governor of Nanzhili, and my father heard that Fei Kai came to check on Fu Gonggong, where can he listen to the advice of others, he will only marry me with a heart. Now, Mom, you remember to send a letter to Xu Xun, saying that Master Shen has made up his mind, and the eldest lady will definitely marry, but he has promised not to marry Ruyi in the past, and let him start it on the day of the Zhao family's wedding. On that day, Zhao Qin must have been entertaining guests in Jurong's main house, and it was difficult to distract himself from Nanjing's business......"

"But like this, Miss, you ......"

"I naturally have my own way." Shen Yue smiled slightly, with a hint of determination on her face, "However, I still have to help my mother help me." ”

The master and servant whispered for a while, and when they heard Shen Yue's final decision, Li Qingniang was shocked and annoyed, and when she was about to object, she only heard Ruyi's voice outside: "Mrs. ......"

With this voice, Li Qingniang hurriedly took a few steps back, while Shen Yue stood up. The next moment, I only met Mrs. Shen, who was as heavy as water, and the Wu family helped a girl in, but she glanced at Li Qingniang and sighed and said: "Yue'er, your father said, the Li family is a subordinate, but he doesn't know how to persuade the master, and the Shen family can't tolerate her anymore, so they will kick her out." ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Qingniang simply felt like five thunders were on the top, but when she looked at Shen Yue again, her face was only a little pale, and she was indescribably calm. In a trance, she saw the eldest lady who had served her for more than ten years biting her lip and taking a deep breath.

"I know, but Mother Li's belongings are not allowed to be touched by others, and she is allowed to take them away."

The Wu family was afraid that Shen Yue would make a fuss, and when he heard this, he was immediately relieved, and hurriedly nodded: "Okay, it's all up to you." ”

Li Qingniang was about to say something, but she felt that Shen Yue grabbed her hand and squeezed it heavily, and then a meaningful sentence came to her ears: "Mom rents a house to live in after she goes out, don't look for other errands, enjoy Qingfu, don't forget me!" ”
