The Xing'an Bo Mansion recruited one or twenty family members.

For such a news, the DPRK and the central government did not react much. When Ma Qiao recruited people on his behalf, he played out the signboard of military merits, but he cleverly concealed the background of the case, even if there was a full history of the imperial history to support him and couldn't get along, but since Xu Dang has now set up a shelf, Zhang Cai has relied on his means of many years in the Ministry of Literature and Selection, and is about to be promoted to the right of the imperial history.

Therefore, on the contrary, there was a change in the selection of the secretary of the military department, and this matter caught the upper and lower levels off guard. Although Yang Yiqing and Liu Yu are both governors, their qualifications and military exploits are far from each other, and there was an uproar for a while. Even Li Dongyang couldn't hold back, and when he returned home from Wenyuan Pavilion in the evening of this day, he asked the little guy waiting in front of the door: "Is there a letter from Shaanxi today?" ”

"Master, there are no Shaanxi, they don't matter, they have been sorted out and sent to the study."

Li Dongyang and Yang Yiqing are not only brothers in the same school, but also have a good relationship with each other, and they exchange letters extremely frequently on weekdays. Knowing that there was no letter from Shaanxi, he frowned slightly, and when he was about to enter the door, who knew that the little guy said another sentence.

"But Uncle Pingbei has only been here for a while, and he insists on waiting for the master, so Mrs. invited someone to serve tea in the small flower hall."

"Why don't you say it sooner!"

Li Dongyang reprimanded angrily, but forgot that he had asked if there was a letter first, and walked quickly to the small flower hall. When he arrived at the door, he heard a faint sound of talking from inside, followed by Xu Xun's familiar laughter, but he made a gesture and ordered the little guy waiting in front of the door to come over, and then asked in a low voice, "Who is accompanying the guest?" ”

"Back to the master, it's the young master."

Knowing that it was the heir Li Zhaofan, Li Dongyang was stunned for a moment, and then he thought that there was only one man who could entertain guests at home now, and his eyebrows suddenly showed a little gloom. He waved his hand to get out of the way, and he walked to the door, and the voice from inside was clearly heard.

"There is Xie Da Sicheng in the North Prison, and there is Zhang Da Sicheng in the South Prison, both of whom are full of Confucianism, so now the atmosphere of the South Prison and the North Prison is one of the strictest, and the theory is based on the family history of the world brother, which is the same everywhere, so there is no need to go far. As far as I know, Xie Da Sicheng and Yuan Fu are the same year, and they are both Shu Jishi, and this poetry and literature are the same school as Yuan Fu, Yuan Fu is busy with government affairs and has no time to guide, and the same is true for the brother to go to Beijian for advice......"

Hearing this, Li Dongyang finally couldn't continue to listen to the corner there, and with a light cough, he personally opened the bamboo curtain and entered the door. Seeing that Li Zhaofan, who was sitting down with him, immediately stood up, while Xu Xun took a slow step before Shi Shiran got up, and arched his hand with a smile at himself, he smiled and said, "It's late to come back, so I'll keep Pingbei waiting for a long time." ”

"Everywhere, my brother and I are the same age, and we are quite comfortable talking."

Similar age?

Li Dongyang saw that Li Zhaofan was really in high spirits, and it was obvious that he was quite involved in the conversation with Xu Xun just now, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly. The two sons of his own died early, the heir Li Zhaofan is the second son of his brother Li Dongming, but he is too young after all, and after this son, he is already the second assistant of the cabinet, Wenyuan Pavilion is busy with government affairs, and he can't be too concerned about his academic character, even if Mrs. Zhu is virtuous and knowledgeable, but she is not too strict with her heir. Therefore, Li Zhaofan, who has already won the crown, is comparable to the sophisticated Xu Xun in terms of sophistication, and I don't know if he has revealed something that should not be said!

"Go see your mother."

After sending Li Zhaofan away, Li Dongyang sat down. Facing a person who understood like himself, he didn't bother to say hello, and said bluntly: "Pingbei Boke is here for Yang Di'an's affairs?" ”…,

"Yuan Fuchang, I'm over forty years old, didn't this Pingbei Bo torment me? Just call me the word Shizhen, I think the first emperor gave these two words, but there are really few people who call them. Xu Xun thought that Zhu Houzhao never remembered these two words, except that when he came to Nanjing this time, from Zhang Mao to Lin Han and Zhang Fuhua, he often called him so, and at other times he almost never had the opportunity to use this word, so he immediately mentioned it with a smile. Without waiting for Li Dongyang to agree or diverge, he said with a straight face, "I have already received a letter about the matter of the nunnery, and I have asked people to send the letter to him urgently for eight hundred miles." As a result, the three towns of Shaanxi were originally a lot of disadvantages, and he had reluctantly accepted the order before, and if he could govern in Shaanxi for another year or two, he would be happy with it, so I didn't fight for it anymore. ”

It turned out that Xu Xun had known it for a long time, and even Yang Yiqing had already known about it, and he had made a statement!

Although Li Dongyang was silent on his face, he was shocked in his heart. Yang Yiqing's temperament is very clear to him, and he doesn't care about the gains and losses at this time, and Xu Xun can actually do the same, this is simply not sophisticated, but demonic. At this moment, he settled down, and then asked in a deep voice: "Since you say so, then the others are fighting again, but I'm afraid it's in vain?" ”

Xu Xun picked up the teacup and skimmed off the foam with the lid and took a sip, then smiled casually: "The cabinet ministers, the emperor has already ordered the elder of the royal pavilion from the good as the flow, if this matter is fought up and down, it is just thankless." And the reason why the emperor used Liu Yu instead of Di An was not because Liu Yu had anything to do, but because Di An did too well in the three towns of Shaanxi, and he was restless when he transferred people back. So I ask you to stop working hard and choose your successor first.

In addition, if the excerpts of Huaiyan and other suggestions from the Ian are in the cabinet, he will also ask Yuanfu to dredge it up for him, and it will be done smoothly. ”

"So, you came today to let me and the mud?"

Seeing Xu Xun smiling and silent, Li Dongyang couldn't help but sigh deeply. At this time, the little guy outside asked that dinner had been prepared, he looked at Xu Xun who stood up at the corner of the bullet clothes, even if he knew that this person did not mean to stay at home to eat, he still had to say: "It's getting late, let's go back after dinner." ”

"I was supposed to leave after leaving for dinner, but if people saw that I was actually close to Yuanfu and became like this, some people want to scold you, and some people want to doubt me, so it's better for me to find another place to eat." Xu Xun arched his hand with a smile, and said softly, "Yuanfu don't worry that I often be this uninvited guest, if I don't want you and mud in the future, I won't come to the door easily." Of course, when he sent me out later, Motosuke looked a little annoyed, and seemed to be more happy with others. ”

Although Li Dongyang was very willing to put on such a gesture, he was a little embarrassed to let Xu Xun bring it up first, but he was a little embarrassed at a very old age. When he saw a carriage parked there, and Xu Xun walked straight down the steps to the carriage, he couldn't help but ask, "Shizhen usually enters and exits the palace by horse, when will it be replaced by this carriage?" ”

"There is Lao Yuanfu's concern, nothing special, it's just that I am tired from riding back and forth all day long, and the guests will sit in the carriage and relax for a while." Speaking of this, Xu Xun smiled slightly, "Besides, the person I offended is really gone, and it is dark everywhere this night, in case anyone unexpectedly disagrees with me, it is more convenient for the carriage." ”

Hearing this, when Xu Xun bowed and boarded the car to leave, Li Dongyang, who stayed in place, frowned without pretending. However, he frowned not because of anything else, but because he chewed on the deep meaning of Xu Xun's last sentence. After thinking about it, he decided to put it aside for the time being.

Now it is no longer the East Factory under the command of Wang Yue for their cabinet to drive! Speaking of which, Wang Yue and Fan Ting actually died mysteriously on the way to Nanjing, but they didn't even advocate for investigation! …,

At this time, it was close to the curfew season, the heat in the day gradually receded, and a cool breeze blew in all directions, blowing in through the bamboo curtain in front, cool and blocking the wind and sand, plus the carriage was quite stable, Xu Xun who was sitting in it was crooked, and gradually became a little sleepy. He didn't open his eyes until there was a call outside.

"What's the matter?"

"My lord, I checked the waist card, it is a small flag of the Fusi of Jinyi Weibei Town."

"Let people come."

At this time, the carriage had stopped, Xu Xun saw that the coachman in front of him got out of the car and rolled up the curtain, and by the light of the lantern outside, he saw clearly that the little flag that came forward was always following Li Yifeng, so he nodded and led the people forward with his own escort, but it stopped five steps away in front of the car. After the little flag saluted, he immediately presented a letter with both hands and said, "My lord, this is my family's Li Qianhu ordered to send it to my humble position. ”

Xu Xun asked the servant to take the letter, and learned from the small flag that Li Yifeng had no other instructions, so he had to order a reward. After receiving the letter from the guard's hand, when the curtain of the carriage fell again and the carriage set off slowly, he opened the letter by the light of the lamp in the car, and the little drowsiness just now was immediately swept away. He held the letter for a long time before he folded it and put it away to his body, and lay down again.

Liu Jin is really cunning, and he actually came up with such a way to deal with Hanwen for him!

Although Ma Qiao swore and promised, after all, some martial arts people often believe in one sentence, that is, it is better to be a slave than to be your own master, so there are only eighteen people who are willing to throw themselves into Xing'an Bo Mansion by writing a letter of reliance, and the best martial arts bows and arrows are not among them. Ma Qiao doesn't have many regrets about this, there are many children of military families in the capital, with Xu Xun's current status, he can't pick out what he wants? And the dozen or so people who stayed behind were each divided into a room and a few sets of ready-made clothes, shoes and socks were delivered, and they all settled down quickly, but the expected visit to that Pingbei Bo seemed to be far away.

Jiang Shanfei naturally has patience. He was pretending to be a simple person this time, so he couldn't ignore anyone like he had been in the inn before, and although he was in the house most of the time, he occasionally straightened his back to talk to people. That night, he was talking to Lu Bi, a capable man in the next room who was full of news, when someone broke in from outside.

It was the man who lived in the three east wings of this row with the two of them, and he couldn't change his black words, Jiang Shanfei only knew that it must be a thief from Jiang Yang who had a criminal record in the official mansion, and now he was desperate and hid in Xu's house. After this person came in, he sat down, grabbed the teapot and poured a lot of it, then put down the teapot and wiped his mouth and said: "The work is here, let's go to meet our new master tomorrow morning, and then escort him to the camp of the Zuoguan Hall!" ”

Lu Bi, who had been blown into the sky with Jiangshan before, immediately lit up his eyes: "So fast? ”

"Hey, if it weren't for the news from outside, I heard that it would take a while just to identify the origins of our people, do you think this wealthy family is so easy to enter?" As he spoke, he lowered his voice, and looked around sneakily, and then said mysteriously, "There is a key criminal in the prison of this criminal department, and I heard that that person is very likely to be unfavorable to that adult, so as soon as the news came, the house was on guard, and now there are people on the roof who patrol the night, and there are people watching outside our courtyard." Who is that adult? It is said that he ordered the whole city to be searched, and all the city gates also greeted him, and that person could not escape even if he had great ability. ”

Jiang Shanfei was surprised with others on his face, but he was really shocked in his heart. It has not happened for so many years since he escaped from the prison of the Criminal Department, and his own affairs have passed for a while, those jailers should try their best not to report it if they are worried about their crimes, and Tu Xun is also familiar with it, and he is not as good as "one thing". That being the case, this matter should not be so easy to expose, enough for him to do things outside. …,

Thinking that Xu Xun would probably turn around and check on the house after checking outside, he couldn't help but secretly clench his fists.

"This is really surprising! In that case, wouldn't it be a great achievement if we could take down that guy in the unlikely event that we could confront that guy? ”

Jiang Shanfei was no longer interested in listening to what the two people were saying. He chatted with him for a while, and then returned to his room under the pretext of resting early to recuperate. And as soon as the door was closed, he immediately began to prepare. In the soles of his shoes, in his sleeves and calves, he carefully hid the same entrainment, and finally stood in front of the bronze mirror with a polished surface, his face shattered by the scar showed a deep determination.

Early the next morning, when Xu Xun went out of the second gate as usual, the dozen neatly dressed family members were already waiting there early. Although it was too late to teach them any major rules after a few days of hard work, they still looked chaotic when they knelt down and kowtowed. Seeing these people in such a situation, Xu Xun nodded slightly and said a few words casually, then got on the horse, and with a few young soldiers and the guards recommended by Ma Qiao, they got on the horse one by one, and the rest of the people also got on the horse and followed. Jiang Shanfei stared at Xu Xun in front of him with his eyes, and he didn't even notice that someone approached from the left and right.

"In the end, the adults are generous, so that a horse is at least twenty taels of silver when it is placed outside......"

"Yes, yes, as soon as we go out, they will take us to the barracks, and they really don't plan to treat us as slaves."

Jiang Shanfei was impatient to answer this, uh-huh, ahh He had been a Jiangyang thief, and the equestrian skills necessary for escape were naturally extremely proficient, and at this time, he was preparing to make a move with all his heart, but he didn't notice that he only cared about controlling the horse with his legs, and his hands were not grasping the reins at all. And Lu Bi, who was on the left and right of this scene, and the other man all saw it, and after exchanging glances at each other, they turned their heads away as if nothing happened, and each gestured to their respective people.

From Wu'anhou Hutong is Xuanwumen Street, and then from Fuchengmen Street out of the city, all the way are densely populated streets and markets. Jiang Shanfei wanted to make a move repeatedly, but he never missed the opportunity, so he could only reluctantly press his temperament. It wasn't until he got out of Fuchengmen Street and went on the official road that he avoided a few groups of farmers and vendors who rushed into Beijing to sell vegetables and catch the market in the early morning, and saw that the people around him were gradually becoming scarce, so he quietly controlled his horse and slowly moved forward.

Unconsciously, he was only five or six people separated from Xu Xun at the front, so he walked steadily for a quarter of an hour, seeing a carriage and three or five pedestrians coming at the bend in front of him, and the group slowed down slightly to the right, and the formation was a little scattered, and finally he raised his right hand when he seized the opportunity, and suddenly it was a few pieces of fine iron that played out.

Seeing that the three people in front of him couldn't avoid it, the horses under him couldn't help but go crazy, and he immediately jumped forward with his legs in his hands, and he had already put the waist knife that had been issued before in his hand. However, just as he pulled out his waist knife and slashed it with lightning speed, he was shocked to find that his hand was light. At first, I checked the waist knife that was fine, but I don't know when it turned into a blunt weapon that was only half cut and had never been opened. Angry, he knew that he couldn't vent his sharpness at this time, so he turned into a chop, and smashed down on Xu Xun's head and neck in front of him, but unexpectedly, a knife stretched out obliquely next to him, picking and leading, and it actually blocked his knife in the slightest.

Cao Qian's knife came out extremely fast, and the whole person also blocked in front of Xu Xun. Seeing that the knife could not be achieved, Jiang Shanfei casually dropped the knife, stepped on the stirrup with both feet, and the whole person curled up like a cat and hid on the horse's back, dodging the two knives that attacked from the left and right, and immediately pounced on it, the shoes and elbows under his feet were all sharp, and he didn't care about the shouting of the assassin behind him. …,

Seeing that Cao Qian in front of him was unavoidable, and after he was knocked down, it was Xu Xun's turn, and he just showed a smile, but he only heard two pops, followed by a sharp pain in his back and flanks, and his body fell down involuntarily. Immediately after, he heard a cold voice: "Take down this person, live or die, there is a reward!" ”

Seeing that a group of people on the left and right were already rushing up to him, he thought that he had no power to fight back, at this moment, Jiang Shanfei knew that he was hit by an arrow, and threw a copper coin dart with the last bit of strength, while people were dodging, he saw Xu Xun in front of him, and he grabbed the dagger with a touch of his calf and threw it heavily, and then the whole person fell to the ground with a bang. Despite this, he still struggled to look up to see the results of the final blow he had just delivered, but before he could see anything, he only felt a sharp pain in the joints of his limbs, but it was the others around him who rushed forward and slashed at these places several times. When an anxious shout finally came, he couldn't help but snort miserably and forgot all the pain at once.

"Oh no, my lord is injured, take down the assassin and hurry back to the city!"

God helped him, and his copper darts and daggers were quenched with poison, and the dog thief would surely die!

On this day, the Wenhua Hall is a routine event of the household. However, Han Wen, who had lost a lot of weight, had only played a few things, and Liu Jin suddenly quietly entered through the back door, walked behind Zhu Houzhao loudly, bowed his head and said a few words to the little emperor. Although Han Wen was stubborn and had never been a leader, he could see that the character who had written impassionedly to ask for punishment was now rising, not to mention the fire in his heart, and when Liu Jin stood up straight after speaking, he said coldly: "Although the emperor is the Wenhua Palace, but the celebrant and the eunuch trespass without reporting, but it is a crime of dereliction!" ”

"Yo, pick on people's sins, Han Shangshu is a good eye." Liu Jinpi looked at Han Wen condescendingly with a smile, and when he saw that people suddenly changed, he said slowly, "I don't know if Han Shangshu makes a mistake in your own household, then how should you punish the crime?" As he spoke, he raised the stupid fold in his hand, and said sharply in a sharp voice, "I just got the report, the household department has mixed in the fake silver in the inner treasury this time, you Han Wen is the head of the household book, what kind of crime should you be guilty of!" ”

Counterfeit silver has always been strictly forbidden by the imperial court, but it has been repeatedly banned since the past dynasties, but it is often rampant, not to mention the household department, even the treasury of the political secretary, often has a headache for this. Since Han Wen took office, the household department has been several times more meticulous than usual when inspecting the money and grain paid by the households in various provinces.

"You...... You ......"

"Dongchang has already taken the account that paid the fake silver, and he has confessed, what else do you have to say!"

Liu Jin looked at Han Wen proudly, and saw that Zhu Houzhao frowned, and he was about to add fuel to the fire to lay the victory and defeat blow, when there was a sudden commotion outside the hall. Zhu Houzhao was already annoyed, and when he heard the movement, he immediately ordered Ruisheng, who was standing beside him, to go out to see the movement, and after a while, Ruisheng hurriedly ran back, his face as white as a piece of paper.

"Your Majesty, Uncle Pingbei・・・・・・ Uncle Pingbei was assassinated outside the city!"

"Ahh

Zhu Houzhao was shocked and angry for a while, and the whole person jumped up all of a sudden, where can he care about whether Han Wen should be responsible for the counterfeit silver entering the inner treasury, and immediately asked angrily: "Where is the person, and what is the situation now?" ”

"It was said that the person had been sent back to Xing'anbo Mansion!"

"Let's go, let's see!"

Since Xu Xun was sent back by a group of people, Xing'anbo Mansion has been in chaos. Although Xu Xun did not give another mansion after being knighted, and everyone in this family has always been called the young master, everyone knows that compared to Xu Liang, this master is the real character. Just by seeing Xu Xun come back quietly, such a big storm in the DPRK and China suddenly subsided, and no one would guess. If this one really falls now, the Xing'an Bo Mansion, which has been so easy to prosper, will be all over. For a while, whether it was an old man like Liu An or a newcomer like Jin Liu, he was busy pressing on all sides, and on the other hand, he was busy inviting people, and it was easy to welcome a doctor to go in for diagnosis and treatment.

"Your Majesty...... The emperor is here! ”

That's too fast!

The two secretly complained to themselves, but no one dared to delay, and they pulled their legs and went outside to greet them. However, Zhu Houzhao moved very fast, and before they reached the gate, they greeted the group who came in on the north-south sandwich road. They were about to kneel down and kowtow, but Zhu Houzhao shouted in front of him: "The vulgar rites have been exempted from me, so come up and talk about what is going on!" "Min
