remembered that when he entered Beijing with Xu Lang last year, this person pretended to be a poor boy, wearing only a plain robe and no decorations. Now after a year, he has finally revealed his original appearance, and the jade pendant on his waist has made his original scholarly anger more elegant and more extravagant.

Xue Ji knew that he hadn't seen Chen Yu, so he explained: "Brother Wubo, this is the household servant. ”

Chen Yu could see something from this person's dress, pretending to be something, and smiling at him with a smile on his face: "How can you introduce people like this!" After that, he looked at Xu Lang: "Chen Yu, Ziliang, Jiangling people." ”

Xu Lang was shocked again in his heart, Lord Chen, the household servant? Isn't that Princess Wanyu's concubine? hurriedly lowered his body and bowed to the person

"I've seen Master Chen."

As soon as he raised his arm and wanted to give it up, Chen Yu hurriedly got up and held his hand: "Don't, I don't like red tape, if you are Qingzhi's friend, just call me Ziliang like him." ”

Xu Lang looked at him, then at Xue Ji, and finally lowered his hand. "Xu Lang, there is no word, Xu Cheng people, fortunately I will be a good brother." When he said this, Xu Lang's face was not very good. He had run several errands with his uncle, so he naturally knew Chen Yu, he knew that this person was An Wang's party, and his uncle Liang Jian ...... A person who can be regarded as a prince.

Xue Ji's gaze turned between the two, keenly catching the uncomfortable expressions of the two.

"Brother Wubo, we haven't seen each other for a year and a half, you must not have come to me for tea idle, right?"

Xu Lang relaxed slightly, hooked the corners of his mouth, and no longer looked at Chen Yu. "I was going to tell you that the Holy One intends to test Enko, but it looks like you already know."

Xue Ji looked at Chen Yu and saw that he had no intention of speaking, so he said, "No, Fang Cai Ziliang told me that you came." ”

Before Xu Lang answered, Chen Yu got up and said: "There is one more thing, I have to go back to Jiangling next month, and Lord Jiang has taken over the affairs of the household department, and I am afraid that the prince will ask you to take care of it more." ”

Xue Ji roughly guessed, it was probably a matter of the Chen family, and he didn't want to ask too much.

"I understand, Brother Ziliang, don't worry."

"Then I'......" Chen Yu glanced at Xu Lang one last time, his gaze was a little complicated, but he calmed down in a moment. I'll go first. ”

Xue Ji clearly felt that the moment he seemed to inadvertently reach out and shook him, it was neither light nor heavy, and tapped it in his palm.

"Are you following King An?" Xu Lang squinted at the person walking away, and the expression in his eyes flickered slightly.

Again, it's the same question.

Xue Ji didn't like the feeling of being tied up and being identified as who belonged to whom, and at that time he didn't understand that it was such a heavy decision to worship under whom.

"I am a fellow villager with Ziliang, and he is still my cousin." Xue Ji knew that such an explanation was too pale, but he still said it. "Lord Liang is Brother Wubo's uncle, Brother Wubo will never follow the prince, right?"

Xu Lang fixed his eyes on his face and observed it for a long time, as if he wanted to find some flaws in this tired smile, obviously he didn't need to search carefully, these words were full of flaws.

"Don't blame me for talking too much, although King An is the eldest son, his background is here, and he has nothing to change."

——————

On the road from Chang'an to Shu County, Qin Xu, the king of Ning, was followed by five or six horsemen, and there was a figure dressed as an ordinary son beside him.

To say that Qin Xu finally finished the official business of Jinzhou, and his beloved wife sent him letters one after another looking forward to his return, and he also agreed softly, but this one was finally about to arrive in Chang'an City, and the other holy decree came down, ordering him to go to Shu County.

At this time, it is the height of summer, and the summer in Shu County is almost like a fire, and anyone who goes can't stay, not to mention that this is still a pampered prince?

Qin Xu was holding the reins and drinking horses by the river, shaking the folding fan he was carrying, as if he remembered something, he turned around and shouted: "Ruqing! Your sister didn't let you bring the letter? ”

Ru Qing is the son who followed him just now, Princess Ning's younger brother Xu Yan. Xu Yan has been obedient since he was a child, and now he is over twenty years old, although he has not yet held an official position, but with the blessing of his sister, he always follows Qin Xu everywhere, and he has already gained a little fame in the court.

"Yes, yes, but ......" Xu Yan dragged the reins and walked to the person, obviously hesitated when he spoke, looked up at the person's face, and then whispered: "Sister asked me to tell the prince to remember to eat, no matter how busy you are, you have to take care of rest, Shu County is hot, the prince has to drink some plum soup to go to the summer, don't try to save trouble." ”

It turned out that the princess was full of concern for Qin Xu, and it seemed funny to call Xu Yan such a seven-foot man. Qin Xu only felt a chill, and raised his hand to slap the door of the person's head: "Stop!" She gave you this is the whole bag and the hair is tied, why didn't you even bother to write a letter to this king? ”

Xu Yan couldn't help but whisper: "Is there less to write for you......"

Qin Xu turned his head and glanced at him, and immediately stopped.

"Lord Wang, you haven't been back to Beijing for half a year, and my sister just let me come with you because of you."

Qin Xu chuckled: "I should really take her out next time, how boring it is to be stuffy in Chang'an City." ”

In the past, Xu Yan followed Qin Xu to see officials to deal with government affairs, this person was either full of anger or his face was as cold as ice, but it was rare for him to smile so unguardedly, and secretly said in his heart that he was pretending to be good, but in the end he was still a child.

"It's okay to go to a beautiful place like Jiangling, but the prince can't take his sister to a place like Yunnan in Shu County to suffer, right?"

The horse with the reins drank enough of Qingxi, and stepped back a few steps, Qin Xu grabbed the reins and turned over on the horse, and the group was almost resting, so they set off and continued in the direction of Shu County.

Walking to the south, Qin Xu secretly recalled, hissed, and whispered: "Jiangling? ”

Xu Yan didn't know why, so he glanced at him: "Jiangling is a good place, isn't Lord Chen from Jiangling." ”

Qin Xu thought about it at this time, not only Chen Yu, but the face he had seen several times by Qin Sui's side seemed to be a young man named Xue Ji, who was also from Jiangling.

"In that case, Gangneung is really a good place."

Xu Yan was even more confused, could the prince still take a fancy to Chen Yu? But Chen Yu had already voted for King An's disciples, so it was too late to make a decision at this time, right?

"Lord Wang...... Lord Chen is a person from King An. ”

Qin Xu raised the long whip in his hand and slapped it at the horse under him, "It's not him, it's the Xue Ji he introduced to the eldest brother." ”

Xu Yan carefully rummaged through the people he had seen in his memory, but he couldn't remember any Xue Ji, who was still from Jiangling.

"How can the prince remember such a person?"

Qin Xu looked at the direction of the sunset, and didn't seem to plan to continue the topic. "It's getting dark, let's hurry."

When the group arrived in Shu County, it was the end of summer, the hottest time. As soon as the weather is hot, people will be irritable, and they will be angry when they train people, and if you want to ask the officials of Shu County what they are most looking forward to these days, they must say that they are looking forward to King Ning returning to Beijing as soon as possible.

To say that in terms of doing things, Qin Xu and Qin Sui are completely different, Qin Sui has always been kind and smiling, and he can do things with a smile and never open his mouth to reprimand people. Qin Xu is different, he does errands vigorously and resolutely, and he can't see the officials below cowering, who doesn't know that they are looking at the sky above? I don't see how long it lasts.

From the day Qin Xu went to Shu County to live in the post house, in less than half a month, the bottom of the old shopkeeper Che turned out, and the boxes he hid most tightly were searched out and sent to Qin Xu. You don't have to think about it, this is what you're looking for.

Qin Xu waved his hand after seeing it, such a hot weather made him irritable: "Let me come to Shu County just for such a broken thing?" ”

Xu Yan shook the fan for him and said, "How long have the officials of Shu County been hiding for the Che family, if the prince didn't come here, where could there be these?" ”

"I'll clean it up for him sooner or later." Qin Xu sneered, still frowning, and stretched out his hand to brush aside the fan he was shaking: "Okay, don't fan, what can this do." What other heirs does the Che family have? Oh yes, has he found his wealth? ”

Xu Yan didn't know how to answer this time, the Che family had a son, but after he was in addition to the capital, his wife and children were washed away like water, and he didn't know where to go and disappeared. The old shopkeeper died bizarrely, but there were dozens of large and small officials in Shu County, and tens of thousands of people did not dare to mention it, when Qin Xu asked people to inquire, an old man in Nancheng turned pale, stared at people for a long time without speaking, and ran away as if avoiding disaster when he lifted the farm tools.

Not only is the old shopkeeper dead bizarrely, but what is even more strange is that his family fortune suddenly disappeared. Some people say that in the last few days of his life, he always went to the tavern theater to hang around, and when he met the corner of the eye, he waved his hand and was a hundred gold, but he frightened the corner on the stage. But within a few days, when the officials sent people to search the house, the house where he lived was empty, and nothing could be found except for a few broken chairs.

In the half month that Qin Xu came to Shu County, his subordinates interrogated and searched the ground from house to house, and they couldn't find even a little golden light.

Xu Yan was also depressed when he thought about it, and sighed leisurely: "This person is very capable, he is so alive and alive, that is, to do something that immortals do, I am still surprised." Shu County is such a big place, so much money, can he eat it all? ”

Qin Xu propped up the table with one arm, rubbing his chin back and forth, obviously lost in thought. He also felt that he shouldn't, how could there be a few people and tens of millions of family wealth who disappeared overnight?

"No, no, there must be someone hiding it for the top."

Xu Yan also understands that if this thing is not so mysterious, then someone must be doing it, why can it? It's not to wipe the master's buttocks.

"Lord Wang, do you think it's possible that this money is in the same place as the person?"

Qin Xu glanced at him, turned his head and looked ahead, a little dazed: "It's not impossible, but how did he do it...... "How did he make his wife and children disappear completely?"

"Check, this must be found out! It's time for the officials of Shu County to rectify it! ”
