Since he was in Suzhou, Fan Xian has been looking forward to the trip to Wuzhou, because he knows that although the old man in front of him, although he has disappeared from the world in silence during the past year, it is just a gesture deliberately to prevent the emperor from jǐngti.

Of course, when the fake is true, the truth is also false, and the posture has been posed for a long time, and this feeling often seeps into the bones. Fan Xian admired his father-in-law's courage to give up.

The court can't live for a long time, so he left lightly, and there is no need to talk about any conditions, anyway, he left Fan Xian such a tail in Beijing, giving His Majesty enough face, and the court will naturally give the honorable retired former prime minister a little face.

This kind of political wisdom made Fan Xian believe in the judgment of his father-in-law, so when he heard these words today, although he was a little chilled and a little faintly excited, more often than not, he was in deep thought, preparing to deal with the upcoming turmoil.

The turmoil is uncertain, although the hand of the stirring waves also has his own, but it seems that Fan Xian still thinks about the influence of this matter.

understood the thoughts of the eldest princess, but failed to immediately capture the thoughts of the emperor's majesty. However, Fan Xian still has his own advantages after all.

For him, the one who knows most of the secrets in this world is the old cripple, the one who knows the other part of the secret is his father, and the one who knows the other secrets is his father-in-law.

These three people are the three most powerful subordinates of Emperor Qingguo and the three cadres of the Qing Dynasty in the five years after the Qingli New Deal. Fan Xian remembers clearly that before he arrived in Kyoto from Shanzhou, his father and Chen Pingping were like strangers, and basically didn't talk much, and Lin Xiangye and Chen Pingping were the two biggest antagonists in the court.

To be precise, this triangle has never been able to communicate with each other.

And this qiē, with Fan Xian's entry into Beijing, with his marriage to Wan'er, has become a gesture in the pile of old papers. At that time, in the world, in addition to Emperor Qingguo, there was also Fan Xian, a resource that could gather the three old men and share information in three aspects...... Lucky.

For Fan Xian, now he can even see it more clearly than these three elders. It's just that this kind of luck or strength doesn't seem to be able to be placed on a courtier, so no matter what, there must be someone in this triangle who has to step down.

Prime Minister Lin Ruofu became the first victim because he was not a child with His Majesty the Emperor.

Occasionally, Fan Xian asked himself, only to find out that his departure from the mountain had indeed brought great damage to the Lin family. Of course, it was impossible for His Majesty the Emperor to stop there, so there was a matter of checking the household department at the Kyoto Imperial Court at the end of the chūn period.

Fan Xian woke up from his contemplation and couldn't help but shake his head, obviously there were still so many problems in the imperial court, so the emperor preemptively killed the dog there...... But the prey has not yet been defeated...... What the hell is going on? Where did the emperor's confidence come from?

"I won't ask about Jiangnan. Lin Ruofu interrupted his thoughts and said slowly: "I believe in your ability, although on the surface, this trip to Jiangnan, you have done a bit of a trick, but presumably you have a backhand...... It's just that you have to go back to Beijing to report on your work during the New Year, and it's good to make some preparations, especially since I don't know when those people will launch. ”

Fan Xian thought about it, couldn't help but smile, and said, "Don't worry, it's okay." ”

Lin Ruofu couldn't help laughing, looked at the son-in-law in front of him with appreciation, looked at the calmness and confidence on the young man's face, and asked curiously: "Your Majesty's confidence is proved by past history...... And where did you, this headless and tailless self-confidence, come from?"

Fan Xian thought for a while, then replied with a smile: "I believe that my luck is the best in this world. ”

Lin Ruofu was dumbfounded, shook his head helplessly, and said in a harmonious voice after a while: "What do you think of Yuan Hongdao?"

Fan Xian was slightly stunned, he knew that Yuan Hongdao was a Qing guest of the Prime Minister's Mansion back then, and he was also a friend of Lin Ruofu for decades, but it seemed that after Lin Xiang's resignation, this person named Yuan Hongdao played some kind of extremely disgraceful role, and now this person has faintly become the first strategist of Xinyang, and there is no doubt that it is the honor of betraying friends.

Fan Xian didn't understand why his father-in-law suddenly mentioned this person, frowned, and thought that his father-in-law didn't seem to have a way to kill this person to take revenge, and he felt a little strange.

"Yuan Hongdao is a very powerful person, and he is also a very free and easy person. Lin Ruofu smiled and said: "I still can't understand why he betrayed me." ”

"Isn't he the eldest princess?"

"Yunrui...... Do you have this ability?" Lin Ruofu sighed: "I don't know very well, more than a year has passed since the incident, and my hatred for Hongdao has gradually faded, so I always don't understand the true background of this incident at that time." ”

"Ask him for me. Lin Ruofu said with a hint of indifference: "...... Why. ”

Fan Xian nodded solemnly, thinking that this greeting was either with a sword or a crossbow.

Lin Ruofu looked at his expression, shook his head, and said, "If there is really chaos in Jingzhong, maybe he can help you." ”

Fan Xian was slightly stunned, not understanding the meaning of this sentence.

Lin Ruofu fell into deep thought, also thinking about this question.

The old cripple in the garden outside Kyoto may be triumphant.

――――――――――――――――――――――― Fan Xian and his party stayed in Wuzhou for a few more years, looking for free time, he would ask his father-in-law for advice in the study, on the one hand, he wanted to know some old things back then, and on the other hand, he also wanted to learn from the other party the skills in the government. Although he is also a two-life person, with innate advantages and rich life experience, it is only in these aspects that there is clearly an eternal jiān by his side, and he naturally refuses to let go.

In previous years, when he went to the Northern Qi Dynasty, in the carriage, Fan Xian also learned from Lord Sean, this is the biggest advantage of Fan Xian, he can guarantee that he meditates and cultivates at two o'clock in the morning and dusk every day, and will also seize the opportunity to learn the ability to save his life, this kind of perseverance and determination is actually not consistent with the laziness he shows Xiàn.

In these conversations, Fan Xian focused on the key points in the court situation, especially for the military, the Qin family and the Ye family, which were the two honors and veterans since the founding of the country, which increased a lot of understanding. Fan Xian felt more and more strange, how could a family like the Ye family, which had been loyal and good for generations, not be clean with the eldest princess?

But this question can only be buried in the depths of his heart.

As for the matter of Jiangnan, although Lin Ruofu said that he didn't want to care, he still wrote a letter to Xue Qing, the governor of Jiangnan, as for what was in the letter, Fan Xian didn't bother to pay attention to it, all the way to the governor, whether he would sell the face of the former prime minister is another matter, the key is the xìng grid of Xue Qing, who was analyzed by his father-in-law for himself.

Xue Qing is a close minister of the Son of Heaven and a good man...... And thoughtful.

This judgment made Fan Xian make up his mind, it seems that this kind of courtier, the greatest hope is just to be a famous minister, and some filthy things, naturally he is unwilling to do it himself, and after rì, he will use thunder means, as long as Xue Qing can stay out of the matter, but afterwards he will give him that big fame, he will naturally cooperate in secret.

According to the news from Suzhou, Ming Qingda snakes and rats at both ends, but failed to really keep in touch with Taiping Qianzhuang, and as a last resort, he began to increase the share of silver transfer from China Merchants Qianzhuang.

Very good.

Fan Xian thought in his heart that as long as that critical point was passed, it would be the time when the Ming family would fall.

………… There are green mountains outside Wuzhou City, so it covers most of the south-facing blazing sun, and the mountain breeze is light and quiet, and it is really the best place to spend the summer.

Fan Xian and his entourage also had a comfortable time in Wuzhou, when they were far away from those things, he would follow Wan'er and Dabao to go around the surrounding mountains, hunt some prey, find some small streams, roast frogs, and tell Wan'er the story of Linghu melon seeds.

There are also times when the night is spent in the mountains, when the stars are dotted, the beauty is breathtaking, the magpie bridge is gradual, and the Milky Way goes away with the wind. Fan Xian hugged his wife in his arms, laughed softly, and made a loud noise, watching the stars at night, but he didn't know whether the general trend of the world was divided or combined, and he only knew that the time of the year of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl was coming.

Stay away from the troubles of the world and live happily.

He and his husband did not mention the things in Suzhou, Kyoto, and all the things in other places, they didn't mention Begonia, the eldest princess, or the emperor, but occasionally talked about Ruoruo's sister who was practicing in Northern Qi at this time, the game of the whole family in Fan's Manor outside Kyoto, and the fragrant chicken legs produced in Texas...... All the way to the west, the two pointed to the mountains and asked the mountains, when they met the water, they were pitiful when they met the deer, and the lone wolf was fierce, walking by the stream next to the forest, lingering in the clouds by the cliff, this is a very rare quiet relationship after marriage, as if the qiē around them no longer exists, only Fan Xian and Lin Wan'er.

Wrong, there is still a big treasure.

But Dabao's cuteness lies in the fact that he is always quiet.

This kind of rìzi can't last forever, and if Fan Xian wants to keep this kind of rìzi, he must go out of the mountain again and walk into the red dust again.

............ "Dabao wants to follow us?" Fan Xian opened his eyes and asked curiously, "Didn't you send him to your father-in-law's side and be your father-in-law's companion?"

Lin Ruofu now lives alone in Wuzhou, although there are countless children in the clan, but there are few real caring people around him. Wan'er naturally wants to follow Fan Xian now, if Dabao also follows them, then who will accompany the old former prime minister?

The son is not there, and the knees are like having no children, this kind of loneliness, Fan Xian can appreciate one or two.

Father insisted. Lin Wan'er said softly, after these rì Zi Fan Xian's careful recuperation, coupled with the play in the mountains, Wan'er's body really recovered for a long time, her slightly moist cheeks showed a few traces of healthy flush, and her big eyes blinked slightly on her eyelashes.

Fan Xian looked at her with a smile, gently held her hand, and said, "It's all done." ”

After a few counts, the all-black convoy left Wuzhou and slowly headed east, passing several small cities and mountains along the way, and came to a three-way junction.

It has reached the territory of Dongshan Road, and this three-way road leads to the two state towns under the rule of Dongshan Road.

The east is Shanzhou, and the north is Jiaozhou.

"You go to Shanzhou and wait for me, I'll go to Jiaozhou to do some things. Fan Xian stood on the carriage and said in harmony to Wan'er on the carriage: "At most, it will be ten days late." ”

Of course, Wan'er knew what he was going to Jiaozhou for, and sighed in her heart, but knowing that the emperor's order was in her body, Fan Xian couldn't refuse at all, so she had to put on a gentle smile on her face that made each other feel at ease, stuck out her tongue and said, "Hugh is going to mess with flowers and grass." ”

Fan Xian smiled embarrassedly and bowed to the ground: "Don't worry, lady, I won't go to the roadside to pick it up again." ”

Dabao, who was sitting next to Wan'er, had been sitting with a blank expression, and when he heard this, he suddenly interjected: "Garden...... There are flowers in it. ”

Fan Xian was slightly angry, Wan'er was slightly hateful, Dabao didn't know what was going on, and the three of them said goodbye for the time being.

………… After turning around and going north for only three miles, Fan Xian got out of the carriage, stretched his waist, and asked his subordinates beside him, "Are you ready?"

"I'm ready, Lord Tisi. ”

On the side of the mountain forest in the distance, a group of cold and murderous black sè cavalry could be faintly seen waiting there.
