Although the Xia family is the richest man in the capital, they do not have much power in the court, so they can only live in a manor on the outskirts of the capital. The people living in the capital are all officials in the court, and they are either rich or noble.

As soon as he slipped into Xia's house through the back door, before he could leave, he heard movement at the back door, and found a hidden corner to hide, only to see a person wearing a cloak and entering through the side door, and after a closer look, it was Xia Linghan, her cheap father.

Her cheap dad must have done something unsightly when he entered the house through the back door in a cloak today. In line with the principle of not worrying about the excitement, Xia Qingshan decided to follow and have a look.

I saw Xia Linghan hurriedly entered the study, and after a while, the eldest lady also hurried over, this eldest lady is the cousin of the third prince, the eldest lady of the Guogong Mansion, she married into the Xia family despite the opposition of her family, and once fell out with her family, fortunately, Xia Linghan was very good to her, and had two sons and a daughter after marriage, the eldest son Xia Qingyu was born as the proud son of the sky, and his spirit is a tiger and lion, rare in a hundred years, and is in the limelight for a while, and is favored by the forces of Central Continent, and has a bright future. But the seventh son, Xia Qianguan, has mediocre qualifications, and he is idle all day long, and he doesn't know where to go. The third daughter is Xia Wenyu, the direct murderer of the original owner's death.

Xia Qingshan slowly approached the study, only to hear the sound of conversation coming from inside.

"Master, what did the fifth prince say over there. ”

"The meaning of the fifth prince is that as long as we secretly defect, he will give Yu'er a concubine, and we will not be implicated by the Guogong Mansion, and we will move into the capital as a squire in the future, on the condition that we need to use half of the family property as a dowry. ”

"Master, do you think the words of the fifth prince are credible?"

"It should be credible, the Fifth Prince hit the Guogong Mansion yesterday, but he didn't attack us, which means that he needs the wealth in our hands, and besides, the Fifth Prince gave me this token and gave me the command of his snake shadow. ”

"Then let's go down, if the fifth prince can become the lord of this cloud desolation, our Xia family can also fly on the branches, as for the silver, we can earn it again without it." ”

"Ma'am, are you really willing?"

"Master, I am already a member of the Xia family, now that the Guogong Mansion has been hit hard, there is no threat in a short period of time, my cousin is leading troops outside, although he has 20,000 elite soldiers in his hands, but when he comes back, the situation in the court has been decided, not to mention that the five princes should have made a lot of preparations over the years, secretly recruiting troops and buying horses, and the Guogong Mansion has always supported the cousin over the years, most of them are centrists, where there are interests, they will fall, and the cousin's side does not have much advantage. What's more, Yu'er has been in love with the Five Princes for a long time, so it is reasonable that we should also defect. ”

"Or Madame understands me. ”

Xia Qingshan quietly withdrew from the door of the study. This big lady is really not simple.

As soon as he returned to Wuji Pavilion, Wuxi began to chatter.

"Hey, didn't you go out to buy food? Why did you only come back now, I'm dying of hunger, sir, show me, what did you buy?"

Xia Qingshan glanced at Wuxi Bai, "What I bought has nothing to do with you, can you eat it?"

Wuxi smoothed the hair on his body, "If you can touch me, it means that I am already an entity now, and since I am an entity, I will definitely be able to eat." ”

As if to confirm its words, Wu Xi's paw reached for the teacup on the table, only to pass through the middle of the teacup.

The confident smile immediately collapsed, "It's not scientific, it's not scientific, I'm an entity, why can't I touch it." ”

Xia Qingshan crossed his arms around his chest, leaned against the door frame, and there was some schadenfreude in his tone, "Maybe only I can see you, touch you, only I can hear you." ”

"This can't be!" Wuxi tried to grab the cup without giving up, but it backfired, and its claws still passed through the cup mercilessly.

"I don't believe it!" he turned and ran out, probably looking for someone to confirm it.

After a while, Wuxi walked into Wuji Pavilion dejectedly, silently walked to the corner of the wall and squatted, hugging his chubby self, "How can I still be in the state of my soul, woo woo, liar, how can I deceive the master's feelings so much." ”

The corners of Xia Qingshan's mouth twitched slightly, trying to control his smile, this guy is actually a little cute, hahaha.

Realizing that he actually had this kind of thought, hell, how could he think this stinky fart and chatter is cute, it is definitely hell.
