"Humph!"

Su Zheng snorted coldly, didn't look at Xu Suining again, and drove away on the horse.

The steward who was waiting for Xu Suining on the side, saw this and said angrily: "Hey, this Su Zheng is really shameless!" ”

Looking at his departing back, Xu Suining squinted his eyes and was in an excellent mood.

"That's it, let him go!"

This case is a foregone conclusion, and he will not be able to make any waves.

As soon as he left the city gate, a man in black suddenly fell from the sky and stopped Su Zheng, "Master Su, my master invites you to go!" ”

Su Zheng tightened the reins in his hand, looked at the man in black who suddenly appeared, and frowned: "I don't know who your master is?" ”

"You'll find out when you go."

The man in black did not answer Su Zheng's words directly, but only took out a white jade pendant with a dragon pattern ring from his arms and let him look at it, and Su Zheng's face changed slightly after seeing it clearly.

"Lord Su, rest assured, My Royal Highness has no malicious intent, but there are some details about the case of the slight sale to discuss with your lordship."

Hearing the man in black say this, Su Zheng's hanging heart was slightly lowered.

On the other side, Xu Suining sat all the way in the soft sedan chair and opened the sedan curtain, warmly waved goodbye to the people of Jiangdu City, he kept opening the curtain as if waiting for someone, but all the way out of the city gate, still did not see the person he wanted to see, he gently put down the sedan curtain, touched the ink jade seal in his hand, and sighed.

The steward who was following the soft sedan car on the side heard a sigh and wondered: "Why is your lord sighing!?" ”

It stands to reason that this time the adult has made a great contribution, just to return to Kyoto, it must be indispensable to add an official to the knighthood, and it is a great joy to make steady progress on the official road, obviously I was in a good mood just now, why is it at this time......

Xu Suining lowered his eyes, carefully put away the black jade seal in his hand, and put it in his arms. This jade medal was originally a gift he planned to give to Xu Ru this time, but in the past half a month, he has sent people to invite him several times, and he wanted to meet him, but Xu Ru did not agree.

The steward thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "My lord, is it for the sake of the son!?" ”

When the words fell, the advancing team suddenly stopped, Xu Suining frowned slightly, and asked, "What's the matter?" Soon, the officers and soldiers in front hurriedly came to report, bowed their hands and saluted: "My lord, there is a small guy in front of him blocking the road to communicate, saying that his son-in-law invited his lord to go to the ten-mile long pavilion to talk." ”

Xu Suining sat in the soft sedan chair, thinking: "Did he say who his son-in-law was!?"

"Lord Hui said it, saying that it was surnamed Xu ......"

Seeing this, the steward reminded: "My lord, there is a ten-mile long pavilion in front, look!?"

Slightly lifting the sedan curtain with his fingertips, Xu Suining looked forward in the direction pointed by the steward, and saw that in the pavilion in front of him, there was a young man dressed in green clothes in a black coat, standing with his back to him, holding his hands.

At a glance, he recognized the man, and for a while, his heart was excited, and he hurriedly shouted: "Quick, stop the car!" ”

"Help me through!"

The steward hurriedly blocked the roof of the sedan chair with his hand, helped him get out of the sedan chair, and walked towards the pavilion.

As soon as he left, the officials followed, but suddenly someone stretched out his hand to stop him, "My son-in-law said, I only saw Lord Xu alone." ”

Xu Suining turned his head, looked at the officials who were stopped, and ordered, "You can just stop here and wait for me." ”

"But ...... the safety of adults?"

"It's okay, the official will be fine, it's just to meet the old man!"

The wax moon of Chu State, it is the cold season, Xu Suining was supported by the steward all the way to the pavilion, today the sky is sunny and clear, and the winter sun is reflected on his thin and old body, which makes Xu Suining feel a little warm and hot.

"Zhang'er."

Yuzhang is Xu Ru's former name, and it has not been called that for many years since he left Kyoto three years ago.

Xu Ru turned around lightly, looked at the old man with gray temples behind him, was slightly stunned, and sighed for a moment, but he hadn't seen him for three years, how could he look like he was ten years old now!?

The father he admired the most in the past, and the person he hated the most today, is now like an old man in his last years, without the vigor and majesty in his impression, and the beautiful eyes that are still bright reveal his still enthusiastic ambition.

"Lord Xu, please be seated!"

Xu Ru respectfully made a gesture of please, his face cold and detached.

In an instant, as if a cold wind was passing, the little warmth reflected in the sun disappeared, Xu Suining came to him eagerly, and said excitedly: "Zhang'er, what do you call me!?" Are you still haunted by what happened back then and refuse to forgive me! ”

He tugged at his sleeve, the pupils in his eyes flushed a little, and he looked excited. But when Xu Ru heard the four words of the events of the year, he only felt a tingling in his heart, and his face became colder, and he brushed his clenched hand away lightly, and said expressionlessly: "Lord Xu, you have lost your temper." ”

"I'm not called Xu Yuzhang now, I'm called Xu Ru! Didn't you forget!? ”

"You! I ......"

The repeated requests for peace were rejected, which made Xu Suining's face ugly and a little annoyed. He is his biological father, and now he has been so soft-spoken and kind again and again, but he ......

Seeing this, the steward on the side knew that if he continued like this, it would only make the relationship between father and son more and more rigid.

He hurriedly grabbed Xu Suining and persuaded in a low voice: "Don't worry, my lord, now that the son is finally willing to see you, don't be angry with him anymore!" ”

"But he did this to me, I am his father!"

Xu Suining was still a little annoyed, and his father said the word very seriously, as if he was deliberately talking to someone.

The steward glanced at Xu Ru, who was still indifferent, and hurriedly persuaded: "My lord, the coming day is long, the coming day is long!" If you annoy Childe at this time, it will be difficult to ease it again, and besides, it is not you who personally drove Childe out of the mansion and went to the genealogy ......."

In a word, when it came to Xu Suining's pain, he knew that he was at a loss, and he didn't say anything.

Relieved his mind, he calmly sat down at the round stone table in the pavilion, seeing that he had calmed down, Xu Ru sat down lightly, picked up the warm wine that had been prepared on the stone table, and poured it for him, "Xu Ru came to see the adult this time, because he cooperated with the adult in one matter." ”

Xu Suining touched the ink jade seal in his arms, hesitated for a moment, and finally took it out and pushed it in front of Xu Ru, and said with a calm face: "Zhang'er has nothing to do, but it doesn't matter, as long as the father can do it, he will definitely agree." ”

"I know, your favorite since childhood is to collect these beautiful stones and jade, rare antiques, this jade color is heavy and greasy, the texture is fine, black as ink, smooth and lovely, when I first saw this ink jade seal, I felt that my father was very worthy of you, you still like it......"

Xu Ru glanced at the ink-colored jade medallion lightly, and then withdrew his gaze, "Lord Xu's good intentions, Xu Ru understands it, but now it is more important for you and me to talk about business." ”

Ignoring the stiffness and embarrassment on Xu Suining's face, Xu Ru took out a letter from his arms and pushed it in front of Xu Suining, "This is the ...... the master asked me to hand over to you."
