When Master Shen learned the news, he also asked Shen Jing to inform Shen Mo quickly. Shen Jing was furious when he heard this, so he hurriedly ran to Shen Mo's house, rushed into the backyard study, and said loudly to Shen Shuyan, who was reading a book while twisting peanuts: "It's bad, something happened to my second uncle." ”

Shen nodded silently, but his eyes did not take off the book.

"Do you know what's going on?" Shen Jing walked to the table, snatched the hand from Shen Mo's hand, and shouted, "Big deal! ”

"Yes." patting the peanut skin on his hand, he said silently: "I knew it yesterday." ”

"Can you sit still?" Shen Jing's eyes widened and said, "Hurry up and think of a way, how to deal with it." ”

"There's nothing to deal with." Shen Mo shook his head and said: "It's going to rain, my mother wants to get married, I can't care about it." ”

Shen Jing looked at Shen Mo's slightly thin face, and asked in a low voice, "Are you angry with my second uncle?" ”

"How so?" Shen Mo raised his head and looked at him and said, "The teacher did what I wanted to do but didn't dare to do, and as his student, I am extremely honored." ”

On the way here, Shen Jing imagined the silent reaction, which could be pain or grief or panic, but he didn't expect him to be so calm.

"It's been expected for a long time, what's there to be excited about." Seeing Shen Jing's dumbfounded appearance, Shen Mo patted him on the shoulder and said softly, "Brother, don't worry, everything will be fine." ”

Shen Jing didn't know where he got his confidence, so he was no longer so flustered in his heart anyway. Shen Mo pulled him to sit down on the brazier, and said in a low voice: "As early as half a year ago, your father and the Tang Governor had already prepared for today......

"I knew I was going to be unlucky half a year ago?" Master Shen conspired with Shen Mo about everything, and never told Shen Jing.

"It's called planning ahead." Shen Mo whispered: "Do you remember when Zhao Wenhua came to Zhejiang?" The Tang Governor and our family flattered him out of the ordinary, do you think that our surname Shen is all cheap bones, and he has never seen the holy decree in his life? ”

Shen Jing laughed and said, "I think it's quite pompous." ”

"You will be a corrupt official in the future," Shen Mo scolded lightly: "Your father and Governor Tang must have already gone to Hangzhou, whether you can meet Zhao Wenhua or not depends on how big your face is that time." ”

"What about you?" Shen Jing said with concern: "Should you also beg him to pass this pass?" ”

"The homework has already been done." Shen Mo smiled faintly: "As long as there is no indication from above, he will not move me, and there is no need to touch me......"

"And what if there's an instruction from there?"

"He's definitely going to do it harder." Shen Mo whispered: "So you don't have to look for him." ”

In fact, Shen Mo also knew that he was very unreliable now, once there was any wind and grass on it, it would be a tornado that could sweep him away, but he couldn't find a good way for a while, so he could only adopt a method that was not a way - to respond to all changes with no change.

Shen Jing was sent away in the morning, and Xu Wei came in a hurry in the afternoon, he knew the situation from somewhere, so he ran all the way over, tired and sweaty, and out of breath.

Shen Mo hurriedly asked him to sit down, poured him another bowl of tea, and drank it, Xu Wei's face looked better.

Shen Mo smiled and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry?" I won't tell you about my daughter-in-law. ”

Xu Wei said angrily: "As soon as I heard that my cousin-in-law had an accident, I was afraid that your kid wouldn't be able to think about it, so I quickly ran over from home." ”

Looking at Xu Wenchang, who was sweating all over his face, Shen Mo was very moved...... What is a friend, that is, when you are unlucky, he does not avoid you, but comes to see you, this is a real friend.

Seeing the sigh on Shen Mo's face, Xu Wei thought he was worried, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, I already have a clever plan, Brother Guan Bao, you are safe." ”

Shen Mo smiled and asked, "Will the plan be released?" ”

"Look what this is." Xu Wei took out a letter from his arms, silently took it, and it turned out to be a letter written by Hu Zongxian, the new governor of Zhejiang, to Xu Wei, to the effect that I have now become the governor, can Mr. Wenchang come and think about it again and help me.

Seeing that Shen Mo finished reading, Xu Wei smiled and said: "I have already written a reply letter, let the messenger take it back, in the letter I boasted about Haikou, saying that after years of discussion between the two of us, there is already a set of ways to deal with the Japanese Kou, if he Hu Zhongcheng is willing to listen to us, he will come to Shaoxing to see us in person." If you don't want to hear it, just say nothing. As he spoke, he patted his silent arm and said, "I'm afraid he won't come...... As long as he comes, with our brother's mouth, he will be blown away from the north, and he will be willing to follow our brother. ”

Shen Mo understood that Xu Wei was looking for a backer for him...... In all fairness, with his current situation of walking on thin ice, he does need a backer. And from the perspective of the whole of Zhejiang, there is no more suitable than Governor Hu, because it is obvious that Yan Ge is always ready to use Hu Zongxian to deal with the southeast, at least until this mission is completed, Hu Zongxian's words are still very effective.

If you can make him feel that he has to protect himself, then he can sleep peacefully.

Xu Wei's vision can be described as extremely vicious, and he found the key to resolving the crisis at once, which made Shen Mo's eyes light up. But on second thought, it's not without its problems...... Defecting to Hu Zongxian can be regarded as defecting to the Yan Party, but he can't be a teacher who just fights hard, and he, a student, will defect to the enemy.

Shen Mo has a deep friendship with Xu Wei, and there is no need to hide it, so he told him about this heavy concern. I heard Xu Wei laugh and said: "There's no need to worry about this, you are originally Hu Zongxian's subordinate, and you are making suggestions for resisting the Japanese, so you don't have to worry about being regarded as a strict party by public opinion." ”

Shen Mo saw that he was sure of what he said, and couldn't help but smile playfully: "Senior Brother Wen, it seems that you still have something to hide from me." ”

"I didn't intend to hide it from you, but you didn't want to lean over all along." Xu Wei smiled faintly, and said mysteriously: "Do you know why Hu Zongxian died and begged for nothing to pull me into the gang?" ”

"Wang Xue." Silent guessed and said the middle way.

"Yes, just because I am a disciple of Ji Changsha and Wang Longxi." Xu Wei said in a deep voice: "Do you know what Wang Xue means in Zhejiang?" ”

"Public opinion." Silent contact context.

"Clever! It's public opinion! Xu Wei struck with both palms and said: "Although our Wang Xuemen people are at a disadvantage in the court, the power in the opposition is very great, at least in this place in Zhejiang, from the promotion of learning, political envoys, to ordinary scholars and children, all respect Yang Ming Gong, and take Ji and Wang as teachers. He lowered his voice and said, "Remember that boat?" It is no exaggeration to say that the views formed on that boat will become the views of Zhejiang Shilin, and eventually become the public opinion of millions of people in Zhejiang...... Whoever wants to do good things in Zhejiang can't do it without worshipping this wharf. ”

Shen Mo couldn't help but laugh: "It's like mixing up on the underworld." ”

"I think it's pretty much the same," Xu Wei said with a smile, "It's all the same in essence." ”

After a long silence, Shen Mo asked softly, "You mean, you want me to join?" "There is a way not to hit the south wall and not look back, he really realized this time that he can't get along in the sinister Zhejiang.

"What to join or not to join, you are meant to be." Xu Wei said with a smile: "You are Shen Qingxia's disciple, Wang Longxi's apprentice's grandson, unless you don't admit it yourself, you are the most authentic Wang Xuemen." Saying that, he smiled and said, "You won't admit it, will you?" ”

Shen Mo smiled bitterly: "Now that I have a choice?" ”

"Don't be so reluctant." Xu Wei smiled: "There's nothing wrong with having an organization, at least if you are caught, someone will bring you food." ”

"Let's be serious." Shen Mo rubbed his brows and said, "You let He Xinyin accompany me everywhere, I'm afraid it's not just to protect me." ”

"It's also for observation," Xu Wei paused, "Observe the situation, observe you." ”

"Me?" Shen Mo smiled: "What do I have to observe?" ”

"Let's see if you're qualified enough to take on the responsibility of revitalizing my studies." Xu Wei said with a smile: "Don't be flattered, because there are more than 20 observation objects in your generation alone. ”

"My generation?"

"Below the ancestral master, Ji Ben, Wang Ji, Wang Gen and others are the first generation." Xu Wei said proudly: "Your master, uncle, and I am the second generation, and I am also the backbone of my Wang Xue, representing the present; And your third generation represents the future. ”

"Are there more than 20 candidates for the second generation?"

"No, it's already settled, there's only one." Xu Wei said in a deep voice: "Now everyone listens to his dispatch, and he will represent our Wang Xue and fight in the court." ”

"I see." A name flashed in Shen Mo's heart, and he asked softly, "Xu Huating?" ”

"Yes, it's him." Xu Wei was a little surprised: "How do you know?" ”

"Apart from him, is there anyone else who can fight with Yan Song?" Silent said, 'Take me for an idiot?' ’

Xu Wei sneered: "Yes." Then he solemnly said: "The first meeting of this year is set for the tenth day of the first month, I hope you will come to participate...... "This meeting is very important to you, and how much support you can get depends on this time." ”

Shen Mo nodded and said, "I will." ”
