Feng'er sat in the side hall nervously. She sat very well, her clothes were fresh and elegant, not like a guest, and she was a little too cautious. In the morning, she had already come to Fan's house, and her mind had already become a mess, and she was ashamed of one of her daughters' house, but she didn't care about her shame and came to the house to see her, and for the other time, she was thinking about her father's long sigh at home, and she was extremely anxious. And in her heart, the most flustered corner was occupied by Fan Xian's appearance.

I haven't seen Lord Xiao Fan for three years, although the maids often listen to some rumors from the outside, and then talk in the room, Sun Hao'er knows that the other party has had a very good life in the past three years, gave birth to a pair of children, the family is harmonious, and there is no problem in the court, and her heart is comforted to the extreme. Sun Hao'er wanted to see Fan Xian in her heart, but she also knew that if she really met with Xiao Fan, it would be extremely impolite.

The tea on the long table was slightly cold, and there was a girl ring who came up to change it, the fourth tea that had been changed, from the morning to this time, the Fan Mansion did not treat this Miss Sun family coldly, after the Fuji family came back from the medical hall, they began to be slightly respectful, and chatted with her very calmly, and talked for a few hours, and the words in the woman's mouth were not the same.

Sun Hao'er knew that this woman was the lady in charge of the Fan Mansion, and she didn't dare to treat her lightly, but when she heard that Lord Chen was not in the mansion, she was already relieved. Everyone knows that the county lord in the little grandfather's mansion is the most gentle and amiable, and never expresses any opinion on outside affairs. is just presiding over the Hangzhou meeting. Seek some benefits for the poor people in Qingguo, and be benevolent. Everyone admired it. It's just that my grandson knows the rumors in Beijing, so I'm always a little scared.

I waited a long time. The Fuji family only said that the county lord went to the palace. Grandpa went on an errand again. Not in Fuchu. There was no host's house to entertain them. Please be considerate of Miss Sun. The grandson had already looked at the officials with sharp eyes. Hit the edge of the garden in and out. I had already guessed that Lord Xiao Fan was probably hiding in the back garden and refused to see him, and he was faintly disappointed. Then he got up and took his leave. Who knew that the vine family would not answer her words.

Sun Hao'er was slightly stunned. I also guessed that I guessed that the backyard was discussing something about my arrival. He sat down calmly.

After a while, Fan Ruoruo walked into the side hall. Sun Hao'er hurriedly got up and saluted, and the two women looked at each other and said something softly. Fan Ruoruo whispered Fan Xian's confession.

Sun Feng'er was full of joy. I thought to myself that if Lord Xiao Fan was willing to come the day after tomorrow. That's excellent, of course, so thank you quickly. A few more polite words to each other. He wanted to say goodbye and leave.

Fan Ruoruo made it clear that the girl's family was happy and melancholy. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. Thinking that my brother was really too much of a land debt, I couldn't help but whisper: "My brother is in the back garden." It's just that there is a difference between men and women. It's not good to come out to meet, please forgive the girl for his hard work. ”

Sun Hao'er's body was shocked. There was something else in the sentence that Miss Fan suddenly came out of, and it seemed to vaguely grasp the bitterness of Little Fan and his pity for himself. Cheeks are slightly red. I can't thank you enough. A deep blessing went away.

Fan Ruoruo looked at the back of the girl's home. I couldn't help but smile bitterly. Turn your head. But I saw Fan Xian's ghostly appearance. smiled: "Everyone is gone." What else are you looking at?" After a pause, he said, "But she understands what you mean, and she is grateful for it." ”

Speaking of this section. She couldn't help but glare at Fan Xian rarely. said, "You." Can you not be so careful? It seems to be thinking about Miss Sun. I don't know how she got into it. ”

As soon as this remark came out. Ruo Ruocai found that his words seemed to reveal a ghostly atmosphere. Shocked, he quickly covered his smile and said, "There is something I forgot to tell you, we heard it wrong. ”

Fan Xian didn't care about this sentence, just sighed with a wry smile: "When will you be a good person." It's also a bad thing?"

Successfully avoided Miss Sun. After pacifying my sister. Fan Xian was idle again, stilting Erlang's legs. While looking at the letters written by Shi Xianli and Su Wenmao. While humming something softly there. The envoy over there in Dongyi City was still grinding, and he estimated that he could hold out for two more days, and he was not in a hurry. It doesn't hurt to stay in Kyoto for another six or seven days. It's been a long time since I've been dealing with my own personal affairs in detail, and I can just use my heart.

Su Wenmao's position in the three major squares of Neiku in northern Fujian has become more and more stable, and he has the Ren Shao'an tribe as a helper. In addition, the close cooperation between the Supervision Yuan and the Inner Treasury and Transshipment Division. The second number of the year. Now he has become the number one person in the three major squares. Of course. This is mainly because he represents the will of Fan Xiandi.

Shi Yanli is still traveling around the world. Five years have passed, and the scholars of that year have accepted their fate of missing their careers half helplessly and half casually. If he was really willing, in fact, it would not be difficult for Fan Xian to arrange him a half-official position. It's just that Shi Yanli is clear that in the heart of the sect master, he is different from the other three sons, and what he has to do is more disgraceful and more important. For the sake of the Baoyue Lou Land Intelligence System and the silver two turnovers, he is willing to give up some very important things to help his own Earth Sect Master.

Of course, now the owner of the Baoyue Building. Walking in the world, no one dares to disrespect him, Shi Xianli, a businessman, is actually much more chic than officials like Ji Chang and Wanli, even if Fan Xian intends to let Shi Xianli re-enter the office, this Qinglou owner must also think about it vividly.

In fact, he still doesn't know Fan Xian as well as Sang Wen, Fan Xian built Baoyue Tower all over the world, the starting point is actually to pity those poor women whose fate is not in his hands, and try to use Baoyue Building to influence the lowest profession from ancient times to the present, not seeking absolute justice, but at least to be more formal.

Fan Xian read Shi Xianli's letter, but he couldn't help laughing, looking at the words in the letter, he was afraid that Shi Xianli and Sang Wen couldn't help but work together for many years, and finally had some faint feelings.

Shi Xianli wanted to ask Fan Xian to call the shots. But he didn't dare to say it explicitly. Fan Xian thought it was really funny. He hadn't even thought about sending these two to the pile, because from the beginning. He knew that there was a lonely Jianghu guest beside Sang Wendi. I want to be a messenger of flowers. I don't know what the situation is around Sang Wen now

What's up.

Sang Wen is gentle. Sang Wen's lips are careful and low-key. are all characteristics of Fan Xian happily. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been picked up from the building back then. Now she and Shi Lidi are older. It seems that it is time to think about these things.

Fan Xian thought so. While crumpling the letter in his hand into a snowflake. Tilting his head, he sat in a daze in his chair. He had calculated many times about the power of the land in his hands. But he had never thought so clearly as he did today—the inner treasury of the Inspectorate was naturally the most powerful of the two weapons in his hands, but if His Majesty made a will. It is estimated that at most two or three percent of the people in the Supervision Yuan will stand firmly behind Fan Xiandi.

"The lump of ice is probably going to stand in the middle. Certainly not to resist. But it shouldn't be against me. Fan Xian thought silently. Will the friendship with Yan Bingyun stand the test in the future? The entire Inspectorate. One place, three places, four places. Control yourself is the strongest. And the people who can really follow him to the Sword Mountain and Pierce the Fire Sea are actually the only ones in the Qinian group.

Over there in the Neku. Fan Xian has been doing tricks since a few years ago. He believes that if things change in the future, he will definitely have a way to react very strongly. Rat-throwing traps. Neiku is now an artifact that Fan Xian can use to fight against Tianwei Earth.

Shi Lili and Su Wenmao's loyalty is definitely worth believing. Plus now in the West Liangdi Deng Ziyue. Fan Xian suddenly found out. The power in his own hands is indeed very large. And there is a faint tendency to break away from the control of His Majesty the Emperor.

It is no wonder that the emperor began to experiment with the future arrangements of the local government.

A smile tugged at the corner of Fan Xiandi's lips. I thought that His Majesty still hadn't realized the most critical point after all. I will go to the ring with him the day after tomorrow, and then confirm and protect the power in my hands. It should be able to last a few more years.

Just like he and Begonia once said. This world is the land of the old people. And they are the land. And in the end it will be theirs.

The land they need. It's just time.

......

......

One day at the end of April, the spring flowers were not damaged by the summer wind. was hit by a sudden spring rain. Flowers and trees stretch out from each courtyard of the long street of Kyoto Minamijo. A little helplessly looked at his clothes and quilts and seemed gentle. In fact, the spring breeze was ruthlessly torn into strands and fell on the stone slab outside the courtyard wall. Trampled by hurried pedestrians. Sinking deep into the sludge. Only a few of the pink edges are exposed.

Kyoto Prefecture Yoon Sun Kei-shu Lord's Mansion is on the main street of Nanjoji. It is not far from this mansion to the back. It is the Yamen of Kyoto Prefecture. It's just that the entrance of the Yamen Ditang is open on the other side, and power and wealth are quietly dependent on each other. but do not disturb each other.

Today is not Sun Jingxiu's birthday. Instead, he gave his old mother an eighty birthday. It was indeed an important day. Fan Ruoruo heard what she said the day before yesterday wrong. That's what the ground is. The old lady of Sun Mansion is also a person with a fate. And Sun Jingxiu rarely does things, so he posts from all walks of life. Officials always have to socialize.

Although there is no red ribbon lantern at the entrance of Sun's Mansion today, it is also deliberately added to the meaning of some festivity, and there are many people who come and go at the door to give gifts. However, not many carriages came. I saw those housekeepers on the long street. It's just that he sent the gift list and gift box into the house very usually, and said a few words of accusation for his own master. He left the Sun Mansion.

Some lower-level officials who didn't know the inside story couldn't help but be a little surprised when they saw this scene. I want to be dignified in Kyoto Prefecture Yin do Shou. It's not like this. It is far from the lively scene of the ordinary mansions of the magnates.

Kyoto Prefecture is in charge of public security and people's livelihood throughout Kyoto, and most of the places with which it deals are the yamen of various ministries. Princes of the provinces. Ladies and gentlemen, it is difficult to do the Kyoto Prefecture land, but the Kyoto Prefecture has a high status, too. When the second prince seized the throne. I put a lot of effort into Kyoto Prefecture. So in general. No official would have done so without face.

Today's scene is a bit surprising. The people around the corner gate whispered, not knowing what they were talking about. It's just that people occasionally think of the rumors of Yin Sun Jingxiu in Kyoto Prefecture in the officialdom, and they think that this is a natural thing.

Sun Jingxiu is undoubtedly the luckiest person in the entire Qingguo officialdom, he is not a decent person, but a scribe. It all started with the beginning. I work as a copywriter in Kyoto Prefecture. This is half a lifetime, originally with his background and no background. In such a critical place. I'm afraid to do it for another three lifetimes. He was also not promoted to the post of Kyoto Prefecture Yin.

However, in the past six or seven years. The crown prince and the second prince seized the heir. After Lord Xiao Fan entered Beijing, there was a chaotic battle. It is located in Kyoto Prefecture, a key place. It has become the primary force contention of all parties. Kyoto Prefecture Yin is not like the governors of various stripes. Prefects of various places. The sky is high and the emperor is far away. You can protect yourself. Don't lean on any of the princes - the government is in Kyoto. No force will let them go. Kyoto Prefecture Yoon must take a stand.

And so. Mei Zhili was forced away. The second prince helped the throne, and the Kyoto Prefecture Yin was ousted by Fan Xian. In just five or six years. Kyoto Prefecture Yin actually fell several times. No official dared to force this official position. Therefore, Sun Jingxiu is the editor of Kyoto Prefecture. Coincidentally, he sat in the position of Yin in Kyoto Prefecture.

In previous years, Kyoto Prefecture Yin. It must be that he is also a scholar of the DPRK and Central Regions. It's just that after Mei took the ceremony, this rule was messed up. By the time of Sun Jingxiu. He is a single Kyoto Prefecture Yin, and he has no title.

So in officialdom. The officials all commented with a hint of jealousy and a hint of disdain. Sun Jingxiu is the luckiest Kyoto Prefecture Yin in history. But he is also the least powerful Kyoto Prefecture Yin. Who knows when he'll be ousted.

......

......

However, Sun Jingxiu also has his strengths. Years of copywriting made him not good at moving around and communicating with officials. I'm not used to patting the sycophants of those university scholars in the middle school. Single-mindedly pounced on government affairs. He is a serious person and never takes the rumors from the outside world in his heart.

It is also this kind of character. Let Qingli be in the autumn of the seventh year. I didn't see the so-called emperor's edict to him. Accepted the will of the Queen Mother. I did my best. Fan Xian is wanted in Kyoto.

The world is unpredictable, the world is unpredictable. Who knew that His Majesty the Emperor was not dead? Who knew that Lord Xiao Fan was actually a great loyal minister! Sun Jingxiu couldn't help but be afraid. It was also thanks to him that he raised a good girl that he found a backer for the first time in the court.

Moreover, it is the first highland backer in the DPRK and China.

So the officials were even more jealous, and the rumors of selling women for glory did not know how long they spread, and finally subsided under the strong suppression of Fan Xian, and after three years, the officials found that the Fan Mansion and the Kyoto Prefecture were not closely related, so they believed that the legend of the boudoir was just a legend, and there was no follow-up story.

It is precisely because of the belief that Lord Xiao Fan has no relationship with men and women in Kyoto Prefecture that the front of Sun Mansion today looks so deserted, even more deserted than the flowers and trees on the street.

......

......

The stewards of the various mansions left the Sun Mansion, but did not leave the southern city, but very cleverly chose a teahouse at the end of the street to rest. Before noon, this very luxuriously decorated teahouse was lively, those who knew each other in the past were in charge, met and smiled, invited to sit together, and soon half of the teahouse was filled.

The stewards smiled strangely, with tacit vigor and a faint disdain for Kyoto. These stewards and landlords are either the hall officials in the six ministries, or the adults in the three temples, and some are the magnates on the side of Guogong Lane. They were all just giving gifts today, and people didn't come in person.

These stewards gathered in the teahouse and did not return to the house as soon as possible, which also shows that these princes and officials know very well in their hearts what it means for Sun's birthday today.

Sun Jingxiu is confused...... This is the common idea of the civil and military officials, since the scholar He who is a scholar in the middle school has already heard the news, it is naturally the one in the palace who has the idea, you don't dare to resign immediately, but what kind of birthday banquet do you want to hold at this moment?

Do you want to see the attitude of the palace, do you want to see the rumors in the officialdom, or do you want to see something?

It's just that these powerful officials don't want to do things too much, so after letting the stewards give the gifts, they still stare around the Sun Mansion, because they don't know what will happen, to be precise, they are still a little afraid in their hearts whether the rumor that has been calm for nearly two years is true.

They don't know if they will be there in person today. It stands to reason that as Fan Xian, the Kyoto Prefecture should not alarm him, but the officials are all treacherous, and they still need to be confirmed in the end.

......

......

"Whose sedan chair is that?" A steward who was talking about the wind and snow, suddenly his eyes narrowed, and he saw a large sedan chair walking at the door of Sun's mansion, looking at the number of people and curtain decorations, the grade should not be low, and asked curiously.

The matter of the replacement of Yin in Kyoto Prefecture is still in the stage of blowing the wind, but all the officials know that this is the first time that Lord He Zongwei, who is just popular, has independently completed a personnel transfer with great influence with the support of His Majesty, so the officials of all ministries are extremely smart to stand behind He Zongwei, and no one will stand in front of Lord He at this time.

Today's birthday banquet is a good time to stand in line, everyone is willing to be close to the young and gentle He University, so the door of the Sun Mansion is deserted, but at this time, a somewhat dazzling sedan chair stopped at the door of the Sun Mansion.

The steward of the servant's house scolded with a smile: "I guess it's a mansion that doesn't participate in political affairs." ”

The relationship between the servant of the Ministry and He Zongwei is very good, and he knows the inside story of this matter very well, so he didn't think of coming at all, and even the tone of the steward was a little sneering.

Who knew that a steward shook his head and said, "Something is wrong, it looks like the Mansion of the Duke of Liuguo." ”

As soon as these words came out, the stewards who came to give gifts from Guogong Lane hurriedly walked to the railing, looked at it for a long time, their faces gradually changed, but they didn't say anything to the people around them, they looked at each other nervously, and sneaked downstairs while the rest of the stewards didn't react.

The rest of the stewards in the teahouse didn't notice the movement here, they were just curious, how could Liu Guogong, who had never been very involved in political affairs, deign to be noble and come to give the Sun family face?

Immediately afterwards, another eight-lifted sedan chair came slowly from the direction of Beicheng and landed at the door of the Sun Mansion, and it could be seen from a distance that Yin Sun Jingxiu of Kyoto Prefecture had just taken the Duke of Guogong into the mansion, and at this time he crawled out again, and he was about to be shocked to the ground.

A steward in the teahouse screamed: "It's the old prince Jing!"

As soon as these words came out, a strange and quiet atmosphere enveloped the teahouse, which was still very noisy before, and all the stewards stopped talking and began to calculate quickly in their minds, estimating what this shocking scene in front of them meant.

Some smart people, who have already thought of another big man from Liu Guogong and Jing Wangye, two noble figures who will never appear in Kyoto Prefecture, turned pale and quietly went down to the teahouse.

And the rest of the stewards were still staring nervously at the door of the Sun Mansion, as if they didn't believe their eyes, and they didn't believe that Sun Jingxiu, the old lonely man, could invite these two to come out and give him strength.

At this moment, two inconspicuous black carriages drove smoothly along the streets of Nancheng, drove past the teahouse, and stopped in front of the Sun Mansion.

The black carriage was inconspicuous and glaring. The faces of everyone in the teahouse turned white, and they watched the young grandfather get out of the carriage, and they were even more embarrassed to see that the county lord who was dressed in gorgeous clothes was also slowly ascending the stairs with the support of the grandfather......

In an instant, the teahouse became extremely quiet, and all the stewards rushed downstairs and rushed to their own mansion with lightning speed.

They must inform their masters that Lord Xiao Fan is here, Lord Chen is here, Lord Jing is here, and Liu Guogong is here...... Who are you? Don't hurry up! Even if Gong Bo just wants to slap He Zongwei's face, you still have to look at it with a smile, don't you?

For a time, there was chaos in the official mansions of the entire southern city of Kyoto, and those who were looking for clothes were looking for clothes, those who were ventilating and reporting were ventilating, and those who were preparing for gifts were re-prepared. But all the officials had only one goal, and that was the Sun Mansion.

Most of the officials who had nothing to do with themselves vaguely guessed what the little grandfather was going to the Sun Mansion for, and in addition to being horrified, they couldn't help but feel a little excited, this Kyoto has been too peaceful for too long, and it can be regarded as a good show to see how Lord Xiao Fan bullied the scholars and the adults of various departments.
