Chapter Seventy-Seven: Please Bear with My Father-in-law!

This small flower hall is where the large living room of the upper room and the east wing room of the north courtyard of the eunuch's mansion are gathered, and the back wall is a row of partition doors, which lead directly to the upper room. At this moment, a lot of light came in from the west-facing window, shining on the vase of a long desk, reflecting a faint golden light. Outside the window, you can faintly hear the birds chirping in the birdcage hanging under the porch of the upper room, and the bustle outside is more and more reflected in the dead silence inside the house.

At this moment, even Fu Rongping's close juniors, such as Chen Lu and Fu Jin, did not dare to speak out, for fear of angering the Nanjing garrison eunuch who was angry. However, although Xu Xun, who was standing in front of Fu Rong, lowered his head, he didn't have much panic in his heart. As early as on the way back, he had already roughly figured out all kinds of joints, and Fu Rong's anger was also expected at this time. After all, if there was such a big fuss but Fu Hengan was not brought back, another person would be like Fu Rong at this time.

"Back to my father-in-law, the boy's courage is given by you."

"What did you say?"

Facing Fu Rong's increasingly fierce eyes, Xu Xun took a deep breath, and then said word by word: "Today, something happened suddenly, and the kid was entrusted by Miss Fu to go to the Guozi Prison, even if he brought twice as many people, the result of forcibly breaking into the Guozi Prison would only be worse." Therefore, the kid had no choice but to make this decision to delay time......"

"Procrastinating?" Fu Rong raised his eyebrows, and suddenly sneered, "You made such a big fuss, just for this?" ”

"The delay is not so that Wei Guogong and his father-in-law will arrive in time, but because the kid is a little worried about Fu Gongzi." Xu Xun paused, and out of the corner of his eye, he found that Fu Rong did not interrupt himself, but showed a thoughtful hesitant expression, and then he continued, "As soon as this matter came out, Master Zhang and Yiying Xueguan had to come forward to suppress the situation, so the kid and Wang Gongzi Fang Mo quietly entered the Guozijian through the side door, and finally found Fu Gongzi smoothly, but it was ......"

"But what?" Seeing that Xu Xun wanted to speak and stopped, Fu Gongzi suddenly shouted at Chen Lu, "Fang Mo people, bring people in, our family has something to ask him!" ”

Chen Lu also had his subordinates see Xu Xun and the three of them sneaking out quietly at the side door of Guozijian, so he stepped forward to bring the three of them back first. It's not that he didn't have time to interrogate, but he thought that the matter was serious, and he intended to let Fu Rong personally ask the facts, so as not to be thought that he was overstepping his bounds. At this time, when he heard this, he immediately walked out quickly, and after a while, he brought the scholar Fang Mo in. Compared with Xu Xun, who was still calm, Fang Mo was not so bold. As soon as he entered the door, he took a few steps forward, knelt down on his knees and kowtowed.

"The little one knocks to see his father-in-law."

"What happened when you saw Heng'an, give our family a clear reply!"

Fang Mo's head had just left the ground, and when he heard this, his hands unconsciously picked at the brick cracks on the ground and trembled slightly. After a while, he stammered, "Father...... Father-in-law, young master...... The young master was holding the ...... at that time ...... with a dagger"

Before Fang Mo finished speaking, Fu Rong suddenly got up, his face full of anger. Chen Lu and Fu Jin on the side also had similar expressions, and the latter exclaimed in disbelief: "Why is the eldest brother so stupid...... And what about him now? ”

"Now that Fu Gongzi has settled down, he shouldn't have this kind of thought again."

Xu Xun saw that Fang Mo was already trembling to the extreme, and Suo replied on his behalf. However, at this time, Fu Rong suddenly sat down, but asked sharply: "In this case, why didn't you bring him back?" ”

Glancing at Fang Mo, who was kneeling on the ground trembling, and then glancing at Chen Lu and Fu Jin next to him, Xu Xun suddenly arched his hand and said, "Grandpa Fu, can you allow the kid to tell me alone?" ”

Fu Rong stared at Xu Xun for a long time, and he didn't know how many thoughts had passed in his heart, so he bowed slightly at Chen Lu. Chen Lu comprehended, and immediately stepped forward and gently kicked Fang Mo on the ground, but Fang Mo was clever this time, and quickly kowtowed again and got up, and followed Chen Lu out of the house with his head hanging low. Fu Jin, on the other hand, hesitated for a long time before moving his steps to go out. When she passed by Xu Xun's side, she originally wanted to ask something, but unexpectedly, Xu Xun suddenly turned her head sideways.

"By the way, I almost forgot an important thing, the things entrusted by Miss Fu will be returned to Zhao."

Seeing Xu Xun take out something from his waist and hand it over with both hands, Fu Jin suddenly remembered that he had ripped off the close thing around his neck and gave it to Xu Xun at that time, but he didn't feel a little unnatural on his face, grabbed it and held it in the palm of his hand, strode out of the house without saying a word, and closed the door with his backhand. Just standing outside the door for a moment, her heart moved, and she suddenly turned around and walked to the upper room.

"Now you can say that?"

After Fu Rong asked again, he couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw Xu Xun take two more steps forward. However, the first words spoken by the young man in front of him made him fall into a deep shock all of a sudden.

"When the kid saw Fu Gongzi today, because he saw him going to do something stupid, he scolded him in a hurry, and slapped him, asking his father-in-law to punish him."

Fu Rong has been in the palace for many years, and the surprise on his face disappeared in the blink of an eye, and he immediately lowered his face and asked what was going on. Listening to Xu Xun explain in detail how to enter the Guozijian, how to change clothes and find someone to lead the way, how to enter the room to find Fu Hengan, how to beat and scold, when he heard Xu Xun say that he took people to the library and let him watch a farce at the gate, his rigid face gradually stretched a little, but he was silent and did not speak.

It wasn't until Xu Xun finished speaking and handed over Fu Hengan's letter, Fu Rong took it and looked at it carefully, and then pondered for a long time, and then asked lightly: "Obviously you have already entered, and someone is willing to answer, you even dared to beat Hengan at the beginning, so why don't you knock him out and bring him out, you have to give up the easy and the difficult?" Today's matter is so big, Zhang Lao'er and Guozijian must be angry, if they are angry with Heng'an......"

"Back to my father-in-law, it's not that the kid doesn't want to take Fu Gongzi out directly, but Fu Gongzi's surname is too strong, because he doesn't want to be humiliated, he is so impulsive, if he really knocks him out and brings people back, who knows that after he wakes up, he won't be angry at home and make other unwise moves? As for the father-in-law saying that Master Zhang's scholars would be angry, the kid felt that it was not enough for the time being. ”

Seeing Fu Rong frowning, Xu Xun arched his hand, and then said unhurriedly: "Fu Gongzi's crime is cheating in the monthly exam, although it sounds like a big crime, but compared to today's things that are very likely to cause a storm in the city, even if Fu Gongzi is punished, he must first end today's matter, so within a few days, Fu Gongzi will definitely be fine." Guozijian and these scholars pretend to be upright and upright, and of course they don't want to be ginseng because of small mistakes and bend the law for personal gain. ”

"And what about a few days from now? Do you want our family to go to Guozijian in person to ask for someone? ”

"The kid dares to ask his father-in-law, although it is not uncommon for you to be a mere prisoner, but do you want Fu Gongzi to leave the national prison on such a trumped-up charge?"

Seeing that Fu Rong was stunned for a moment, and then looked at him thoughtfully, Xu Xun knew that these words had moved the other party, so he said calmly, "Before the kid met Fu Gongzi, he asked Fang Mo about his surname, and after meeting, he was even more sure that Fu Gongzi is an extremely strong person, if he can't clear his name and let him have a chance to prove himself, I'm afraid that Fu Gongzi will be depressed even if he returns home." Heart disease also requires heart medicine, so the kid felt that the indicators were not as good as the foundation, and dared to agree to Fu Gongzi to stay in the country. ”

Although Xu Xun had shown extraordinary wisdom and courage in the face of the Xu clan's attempt to expel him because of their coveting of property, for Fu Rong, his appreciation was just like watching a play. However, Xu Xun's words at this time not only completely put himself in Fu Hengan's shoes, but also revealed a certain deep confidence between the lines, which could not help but move him. You must know that most of the adopted sons and daughters of the eunuchs in the palace are slippery and greedy, in order to teach Fu Hengan and Fu Jin well, he doesn't know how much work it took, but the adopted daughter is not bad, and the adopted son is just being pedantic, and he doesn't know how much headache he has for this.

"You mean, you are sure that you can get Hengan out of the Guozijian and give him a proper name?"

"Yes." Xu Xun nodded heavily, and immediately said deeply, "But if the matter is bigger than today, please take care of it." ”

What's bigger than today?

After Fu Rong was stunned for a moment, he suddenly laughed: "What a big breath, our family has seen countless bold and lawless people over the years, but in terms of age, you are the youngest and the most courageous!" Okay, if you really have the ability, why don't we take care of it! ”

After saying so much, Xu Xun was waiting for this sentence, and at this moment, his heart was suddenly relieved, and he suddenly changed his words and said: "Father-in-law, do you know that before the commotion at the gate of Guozijian today, who did the kid see coming out of it?" It was Zhao Qin who had appeared in the Xu Clan's ancestral hall. ”

ps: I saw that some people compared the new book with Zhumen, and thought that it was not as good as the old book. Ahem, after all, the protagonist is a completely different starting point, and the writing style is also very different from the family house, which is inevitably jerky at first. Please take your time to watch and taste, I will cheer up.
