After the discussion was decided, Ouyang Shu decided to go ahead with the plan.

The next night, Ouyang Shu prepared a prayer post and went to Xu's mansion with Hu Qing'er. Actually, today is the 10-day Baptism Day, and the court officials are on holiday, and General Xu does not need to go to the Ministry of Officials to be on duty, and he should be there to visit him during the day. However, in order to facilitate Hu Qing'er to infiltrate the Xu Mansion, they still decided to choose the time at night. There are many things that are only convenient to do at night.

Fan Xiaolu is surprisingly easy to talk today, although she knows that what Ouyang Shu and Hu Qing'er are going to do is likely to be very exciting and fun, and she has a crazy love for exciting and fun things, but this time she forcibly held back and insisted on following without being unreasonable. Moreover, she also offered to wait for the two of them to return triumphantly in the inn.

When he came to Xu's mansion, Ouyang Shu still handed over the worship post as usual. Since General Xu's intentions are very vague this time, Ouyang Shu can't see it clearly at all, and it is difficult to say how things will end today. For this reason, it is better to give him a quiet brake, act step by step, and fulfill all the etiquette that should be done, so that he can not make mistakes, and then see what he has to say.

Of course, if the other party didn't have a good reason, the three thousand taels of silver still had to be asked for from him. No matter what, if you can't fool the other party casually, you have to give up all the benefits you deserve, three thousand taels is not a small amount, enough for the family to live a lifetime of food and clothing. Forbearance is an advantage for a person, but forbearance does not equal cowardice.

Since the last time, the two guards had already recognized Ouyang Shu, the new science detective, after handing over the letter of worship this time, they did not make any trouble at all, and one of them immediately went in to help him.

Soon, Ouyang Shu met General Xu. This time, the meeting place between the two was not the study of the last time, but in a secret room.

As soon as he entered this secret room, Ouyang Shu realized that today's meeting was going to be extraordinary. It stands to reason that the matter of three thousand taels of silver does not need to be discussed in such a secret place.

However, although Ouyang Shu, who had been prepared in advance, was a little unaccustomed to this atmosphere, he did not have a gaffe expression, and just quietly looked at the surrounding environment.

Xu Jiang's attitude today was also a little different, after Ouyang Shu entered the door, he did not beckon Ouyang Shu to sit down, but looked at Ouyang Shu with interest with his pair of deep eyes.

Ouyang Shu didn't treat himself as an outsider at all, and found a place to sit down. Then he said to General Xu, "Gong Xu, today we should make this grievance between us clear!"

Xu Jiang laughed and said: It's easy to say, it's easy to say! So where should we start?

Ouyang Shu thought for a moment and said, "Then let's start with that inexplicable white mist thief!" I'm just a little curious, Xu Gong borrowed all my belongings, but returned them in this strange way, and went around in such a big circle in the middle, it doesn't seem to be any good for you, isn't your old man's joke a little too big? You won't show off the force in your hands to the younger generation, right? If the news that the white mist thief is hiding in your mansion is revealed like this, what will be the consequences, don't talk about it later, Xu Gong himself should know it!

Xu Jiang smiled slyly: Isn't this not spread yet?

Ouyang Shu's eyes narrowed: Naturally, it hasn't been spread yet, but although Wansheng is not a rapper, it doesn't guarantee that I won't dream when I sleep, and I won't tell the truth when I dream. Therefore, Xu Gong's secret may not be reliable!

Xu Jiang laughed so much that the beard on his chin began to tremble: The kid of the Li family is really interesting, and he actually threatened the old man, aren't you afraid that I will kill people to keep secrets?

Ouyang Shu shook his head: The secret was the secret that Xu Gong himself took the initiative to let the late born know, if Xu Gong had nothing else to do, how could he spend so much money? No one would let others know this kind of secret of his own for no reason, right? Besides, if the late life did not take precautions against the possibility of Xu Gong's murder, Xu Gong would definitely see the late born clearly, right?

General Xu touched his beard and said: "The children can be taught! The children can be taught! They act unscrupulously and without leakage, and they are much better than my old man back then." The most rare thing is that there is not much curiosity and greed, and even the things that have been grabbed can be looked at without a glance, which is not something that ordinary people can do. Based on these, the old man will give you a satisfactory answer today.

Ouyang Shu looked at General Xu without saying a word, waiting for him to continue.

Actually, the day after you threw away the silver, you came to my humble house once, right? Xu Jiang smiled: You must have felt very humiliated about that incident, right? If it weren't for that, you wouldn't have been holding on to the three thousand taels of silver in the future. However, you may not know it, but in fact, the reason why you didn't see me that time was not because of my two guards who were greedy, but because I had told them beforehand that if I saw you, they would make it difficult for me to die!

Ouyang Shu was surprised when he heard this: But how did they know me? If another person came to visit, they would also make it so difficult, wouldn't it?

Xu Jiang suddenly took out a painting from the table and said, "Just look at this painting!"

Ouyang Shu looked at the painting, and his eyes were about to come out. It turned out that it was a portrait painting, and it was painted by Ouyang Shu himself! Moreover, Ouyang Shu also knew that this painting was not made by Xu Jiang and them temporarily. Because the background of the painting is the courtyard of his hometown. In other words, the person who painted the painting painted it after seeing himself in his own home.

How's that? Surprised, isn't it? Look at the handwriting below! Xu Jiang said with a smile.

Ouyang Shu took a closer look, didn't he? There was another line of words under the painting: Portrait of Ouyang Shuzhi, the sixth generation head of the Li family in Qianlong Pavilion.

The name of Qianlong Pavilion seemed to be a little familiar, Ouyang Shu thought for a while, and suddenly recalled. When he was stranded in Jixi Hu's house, that Shui Lan'er was chased and killed by two masters of the Ming Sect. It seems that the purpose is to ask Shui Lan'er to hand over a list of what Hidden Dragon Pavilion.

In other words, that Shui Lan'er is a person from the Qianlong Pavilion!

Qianlong Pavilion?Ouyang Shu shouted loudly.

General Xu smiled and nodded, "Yes, Qianlong Pavilion!" You may not have heard this name until now, but this name will be closely related to the rest of your life. It may bring you wealth and glory that you never imagined, or it may bring you infinite danger.
