After returning to an inn, Ouyang Shu briefly talked about today's events, and then apologized to Fan Xiaolu. Looking for Fan Hongde to meet, Ouyang Shu proposed it at that time, and now there is no way to achieve it, so he is naturally a little ashamed. Although Fan Xiaolu was a little gloomy, she also expressed understanding.

Since Fan Hongde is grounded, if you want to see him, you can only enter Fan's mansion. However, with their current relationship with Fan Zhengping, it is very difficult to be put into the door. And it is not possible to change this relationship between the two sides in a desperate way. Fortunately, after leaving Beijing for more than a month, he can come back again, so although Fan Xiaolu is a little lost, she is not very sad.

Hu Qing'er next to him suddenly said: It's better to be like this, what do you say to your brother, write a letter, and I will send it to you tonight!

Ouyang Shu heard that this was a good idea, Fan Mansion was not as skilled as Xu Mansion, with Hu Qing'er's skills, once he went in, it was not much different from entering his own vegetable garden.

Fan Xiaolu thanked him repeatedly, and wrote a letter to the effect that he explained his situation, and mentioned that he was going to go back to his hometown in Shezhou with Ouyang Shu soon, and hinted that the wedding would be done this time. Finally, I asked about the recent situation at home, and of course Fan Hongde himself.

After nightfall that night, Hu Qing'er went to deliver the letter, and Ouyang Shu and Fan Xiaolu played cards in the house, waiting for her to come back. Ouyang Shu is not worried about Hu Qing'er's safety, with her martial arts, as long as she does not meet the world's top masters, even if she can't win, there is always no problem in getting out.

It's just that Hu Qing'er has been gone for a long time, and it wasn't until Ouyang Shu and Fan Xiaolu glanced at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes that they finally came back.

As soon as she saw Hu Qing'er enter the door, Fan Xiaolu hurriedly dropped the cards, greeted her and asked, "How is it, Sister Qing'er, why have you been there for so long?" Ouyang Shu didn't speak, just looked at Hu Qing'er with concern, and was relieved until he saw that there was no damage on her body.

Hu Qing'er said to Fan Xiaolu: There is nothing else, but your brother is a little troublesome. Ling Zun forbade his feet, although there were also some because he failed to rank in the scientific examination this time, which made Ling Zun lose face. However, the main reason is not because of this.

Fan Xiaolu hurriedly asked: Why is that?

Ouyang Shu has always had a good impression of Fan Hongde, so he is also very concerned about his affairs, and hurriedly looked at Hu Qing'er with concern, waiting for the following.

Hu Qing'er said: It seems to be because of marriage. Ling Zun met a woman for him, who is said to be the same as the Fan family, although the head of this family is also a small official, but he is also famous all over the world. However, Brother Ling refused to live or die, and actually told Ling Zun that he had a personal affair! Ling Zun was furious, so he locked him up.

It turned out that Fan Hongde and Zhao Jing fell in love, Fan Hongde had never dared to tell Fan Zhengping, and now that his sister's affair happened, he didn't dare to say it. After all, in a family like the Fan family, it is extremely taboo for men and women to give and receive each other privately, and having such a daughter is enough for Fan Zhengping to be furious for a while, but Fan Zhengping knows that his son is the same, wouldn't he even more jump? Fan Hongde didn't dare to take Qifeng lightly before, but now he doesn't dare to touch his father's scar.

Moreover, the matter of Fan Hongde and Zhao Jing is not only a matter of private life, but also related to the family. People like the Fan family choose relatives and pay attention to the right family. Fan Zhengping is not a person who loves vanity and clings to the powerful, he would rather marry a lower family than himself, even an ordinary village farmer, rather than look up to the royal family, leaving people with the impression of relying on his son's marriage to consolidate his reputation.

What's more, the Fan family has always been completely different from today's son in terms of political theory. As soon as Zhao Xufu became in power, he took down Fan Chunren, the head of the Fan family who was the prime minister at the time and Fan Zhengping's father. Under such circumstances, Fan Zhengping is even more reluctant for his son to have anything to do with any princess of the royal family.

Based on so many reasons, after Fan Zhengping heard such news, the fear in his heart can be imagined. If it weren't for the fact that his daughter had given him enough psychic impact last time, and his psychic ability to resist blows had skyrocketed, he would have really fallen ill with anger at this time.

So, before the news could get out, he immediately took the measure of grounding. He believed that since Zhao Xu did not propose marriage to him, as long as he forced his son to complete the marriage within this time, everything would be fine. If the princess can marry his son as a wife or even a concubine, he will not object, but will welcome it with both hands.

When Fan Xiaolu heard that her brother's problem was even more complicated and difficult than herself, she sighed a little sadly: Now it seems that I am lucky, although I have a temporary disagreement with my family, but at least I live well, but my brother does not even have a chance to escape. And even if you escape, it will be very difficult for a lover to become a dependent.

But Ouyang Shu felt something else in his heart, because there was a little ambiguity between him and Zhao Jing. Although this was an accident, he couldn't help but admit that at least he was a little emotional at the time. However, now that I think about it, that bit of ambiguity is really nothing to anyone like him who is far more open-minded than anyone in this era, but for Zhao Jing and Fan Hongde, the other parties to this matter, it seems that they have indeed suffered a loss.

Thinking of this, Ouyang Shu couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

The three of them all looked at each other, although they were generally sympathetic to Fan Hongde, but they really had no way to help him, so they had to secretly bless him.

Nothing was said all night. The next morning, Ouyang Shu still entered the palace to thank him, but Zhao Xu didn't say anything, but just encouraged a few new science and technology scholars, and then ordered everyone to withdraw.

Ouyang Shu left the imperial city, and after breaking up with the other Jinshi, he went to the East City. Since it was not easy to hire a car in a hurry, he discussed with his second daughter last night and decided to buy a carriage, so that he would be more free to travel along the way.

It's just that before he could take a few steps forward, he heard a voice behind him shouting: Li Tanhua, wait a minute!

Ouyang Shu turned around and looked, but it was Tong Guan. Since he had escaped from the Forbidden Palace, Ouyang Shu immediately knew that it must be Zhao Xu who had something to hand to him. At that moment, he quickly stopped.

Tong Guan came to Ouyang Shu, looked at the surroundings and looked at no one, and then said softly: The official family ordered the Sprinkle family to take Li Tanhua to a place!
