The raindrops hit the roof of the carriage, making a muffled porphyry sound, Fan Xian closed his eyes and recuperated, I don't know how long he walked, and found that the carriage finally stopped. A pair of hands opened the door of the carriage, Fan Xian smiled slightly, and walked into the rain outside the car, only to find that there was already an umbrella above his head covering the top of his head, sheltering the wind and rain, only the chūn in the surrounding rain alley seeped under the umbrella.

Wang Qinian was dressed in black, holding an umbrella to protect the top of Fan Xian's head, and the seven tiger guards behind him carried long knives and lined up silently on both sides of Fan Xian.

Fan Xianjin was wearing a deep sè thin gown, with a plain sè long gown inside, and then there was a night robe prepared before leaving Beijing, which was plain and full of murderous dress, coupled with his heroic face, he looked extremely divine.

"Fantis, this one, please. The Jinyi guard, who was in charge of leading the way, stretched out his hand with an expressionless face and led everyone into a courtyard. This courtyard is in the side alley, Fan Xian tilted his head slightly, faintly could hear the excitement ahead, smiled and asked, "It seems to be the backyard of the Qinglou." ”

The brocade-clothed guard officer who led the way had a stiff expression on his face, and then replied with a smile: "Lord Tisi's ears are amazing, this is the backyard of the mountains and forests, and Lord Shen has always liked to entertain distinguished guests here. ”

Fan Xian knew that the place of Banshan Forest was said to be the highest ** of the Northern Qi Dynasty, the first founding emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and he used to be a frequent visitor here, smiled and nodded, and walked all the way into the backyard by stepping on the stagnant water on the stone slab. I saw that there were many bamboo shadows in the courtyard, layers of rockeries, and you could see Jinyi guards everywhere, these people were obviously guards, and they did not deliberately hide their figures.

Along the way, Wang Qinian held an umbrella, and the seven tiger guards were silent, taking Fan Xian as an arrow, indifferently and confidently walking towards the depths of the small courtyard.

Along the way, seeing this group of peers from the enemy country in the south, those brocade guards couldn't help but be a little surprised, surprised by the other party's courage, and surprised by the youth of the big man in front of the other party's head.

............ With a snort, Wang Qinian took the umbrella and retreated behind Fan Xian in silence. Fan Xian took his hand behind and squinted at the courtyard, where the living room was quite large, a large flower round table was placed in the middle, and a large space was vacant around it, and all kinds of furnishings were extremely clever. The round table was large enough to seat fifteen or sixteen people, but at this time there were only two people.

One of them was dressed like a rich man, wearing a silk hat and a jade wrench between his fingers. After this person saw Fan Xian come in, two unusual cold lights began to bloom in his ordinary eyes, looking directly at Fan Xian's face, and after a while, he spoke:

"Fan Tisi, I have admired the name for a long time, and when I see it today, it is really extraordinary. ”

Fan Xian didn't answer this polite sentence immediately, but he smacked in his heart, along the way, the Northern Qi Jinyiwei called himself by the official name of Tisi, and it seemed that this conversation was a diplomatic negotiation between the Supervision Yuan and Jinyiwei, not the imperial court. He raised his right hand and used two fingers to unfasten the buckle around his neck with great dexterity, and the thin slug on his body slid down his back.

Wang Qinian followed behind him.

Fan Xian sat on the other side of the big round table, looked at the rich man opposite, and found that this person's eyebrows were extremely thick, as if they had been painted, and he couldn't help but smile and said, "Lord Shen is cold to the people of the world, why is he so polite to him?"

It turned out that this was Shen Chong, the commander of the Jinyi Wei Zhenfu Division of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and Shen Chong controlled countless Jinyi Guards in the north, and he was really a powerful person in the world, but he didn't expect it to be such an ordinary rich man. If it weren't for the archives of the Supervision Yuan, the record of this person was so detailed that Fan Xian would definitely not be able to recognize the identity of the other party.

"You're welcome. Commander Shen sighed, looked at Fan Xian's delicate face, and couldn't help but shake his head, "Lord Fan is famous all over the world for his poetry and writing, and I, the old man, admire it very much. I didn't expect to get the news in the last two months, Fan Xian and Fan Shixian actually became Lord Tisi of the Southern Dynasty Supervision Yuan...... This...... This official really can't figure out what Mr. Chen is thinking? How can a character like Master Fan live like us rats in the ditch?"

Fan Xian laughed and responded: "Lord Shen is humble, thousands of miles for officials are only for money, no matter what you do, one is to seek benefits for the imperial court, and the other is to ...... It's nothing more than asking for a place to live for your family. ”

This is a little white, Shen Zhong sighed in his heart, for this new Southern Dynasty colleague, I can't help but look down a little, after all, he is a young man, and he is a little rough in his words and deeds, I really don't know what Chen Pingping thinks, and I don't know why the terrifying emperor in the south would agree to this seemingly absurd personnel arrangement of the Supervision Yuan.

In fact, Shen Chong, as the commander of the Northern Qi Jinyi Wei Zhenfu Division, has always had an indescribable envy for his counterparts in the south, and he is even more respectful and fearful of the cripple in a wheelchair. He never understood how his counterparts in the south could gain the complete trust of Emperor Nanqing, and unlike himself, standing tremblingly in the court, he didn't know which day he would be thrown away by the people in the palace like a pair of broken shoes.

After a little distraction, Shen Chong immediately woke up, he knew that the other party was a righteous envoy, and what was the reason for taking the risk of asking to meet with him, and the huge benefits contained in the Tsubaki transaction could not be moved by Shen Zheng, and he could not be moved by the palace.

"No one can overdo anything like gold and silver. Shen Zheng suddenly smiled and said, "It's just that the old man can't see clearly, what benefits can our Zhenfu Division get in this matter." ”

Fan Xian waved his hand, and Wang Qinian and the seven tiger guards all retreated. Shen Zheng also nodded, and the rest of the idle people in the hall also retreated. Fan Xian glanced at the person sitting next to Shen Zhong with some surprise, that person was dressed luxuriously, but there was no royal feeling that Fan Xian was familiar with between his eyebrows, and he didn't think that he was a person sent by the Northern Qi Palace to observe, so why was he qualified to continue to sit here?

"This is Cui Gongzi. Shen Zhong introduced.

Cui Gongzi stood up and saluted Fan Xian, but his face was a little self-conscious. Fan Xian frowned and asked, "Qingguo people?"

Shen laughed and said, "I thought the two of them knew each other from the beginning." It is good to teach Fan Tisi to know that this Cui Gongzi is the second son of the Cui clan in Nanqing, and the Cui family and the Fan family have always been called together, and they are both children of the family. ”

Fan Xian frowned and said, "Lord Shen, what do you mean by this?"

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in his heavy eyes, and he said lightly: "Isn't Lord Fan going to talk about business......? This transaction has been done by the official for many years, so I wonder if Master Fan has more benefits for me. ”

Fan Xian tilted his head slightly, looking at that Cui Gongzi, wanting to see something on the other party's face, and suddenly he asked: "Cui Gongzi, are you coming to this banquet today, or are the elders in your family asking you to come?"

"Such a grand event, how can you miss it in the future?" Cui Gongzi didn't seem to be very afraid of Fan Xian.

In fact, the matter is already very clear here, this Cui Gongzi obviously represents the interests of the Cui family, and behind the Cui family...... Naturally, it was the eldest princess who was far away in Xinyang. Fan Xian didn't think that the eldest princess could grab a lot of benefits from the inner treasury, relying on the way of smuggling, but he didn't expect that the commander of the Jinyi Wei Zhenfu Division in front of him would actually pull the spokesperson of the eldest princess to the table!

And what made Fan Xian even more angry was that this little bastard surnamed Cui actually dared to sit on the table and use it as a bargaining chip for the other party's negotiations, the eldest princess is currently asking for herself, how can she come to sabotage her own things, it must be this son-in-law surnamed Cui who made his own decisions!

Fan Xian took the initiative to contact Shen Chong, on the one hand, he wanted to take a way, and on the other hand, he actually wanted to hit Xinyang's source of money, but he didn't expect that the Northern Qi court would play such a game, and put all the games that should have been secretly bidding on the bright side.

seemed to see his displeasure, and said with a heavy smile: "Master Fan, in fact, you might as well make this matter clear, everyone is a person who wants to get rich, this Cui Gongzi and the business you plan to do overlap a bit, I can't eat both, naturally I want to hear your opinions." ”

Fan Xian regained his composure, looked at the Cui Gongzi and said lightly: "I didn't expect Cui Gongzi to have the courage to do such a big deal." ”

"Where is the courage of Lord Fan. Cui Gongzi smiled slightly and replied.

Shen Zhong saw that the scene was a little embarrassing, smiled and said: "Cui Gongzi is also a child of the family, and there are several members of the family in the southern court, but now that he is traveling abroad, there will always be a rì who will also enter the court as an official in the future, and the two of them should be more close." ”

Hearing this, Fan Xian sneered in his heart, looked at Shen Zheng and said, "Lord Shen, you may have forgotten my identity, what kind of family or the like, you really can't put it in my eyes." ”

After saying this, Fan Xian stood up, didn't say hello, and went out of the hall directly, Wang Qinian had already held an umbrella and then, the seven tiger guards held the handle of the long knife in their hands, escorting the adults to the outside of the courtyard, killing all the way, and no one dared to stop those brocade guards.

Listening to the soft sound of the carriage outside the hospital, Fan Xian left so unceremoniously.

............ It seemed that Fan Xian would react so violently, and he was stunned in place. He has been immersed in officialdom for decades, and he has seen a lot of various interest negotiations, but he has never encountered such a situation, and this young Tisi surnamed Fan has a style that is really beyond everyone's expectations.

He rolled his eyes, turned his head and said with a gentle smile: "Young Master Cui, this Master Fan is really a lover." ”

Cui Gongzi's face turned blue and red for a while, what Fan Xian said before really hurt his self-esteem, what kind of family or something, Fan Xian actually said that he didn't take it seriously! He hated and thought, what is your Fan family? He drank a glass of stuffy wine, but felt that something was wrong in his heart.

He looked at him solemnly and didn't say a word.

Suddenly, Cui Gongzi's hands trembled, and then he thought of Fan Xian's identity as the Supervision Yuan, and thought that the other party was the son-in-law of the eldest princess after all, his face turned white with fright, and then he looked at Shen Zheng's eyes, became extremely resentful, and cursed: "Lord Shen, you tricked me into coming here, do you want me to die?"
