Pan Guohong, who has always been accustomed to running errands, has eaten behind closed doors in the Tang Mansion, and now today is no better than in the past, Tang Tong has a bigger backer. dared to shout at himself, when Pan Guohong entered the Xia Mansion, as soon as he saw Xia Zhan, he scolded: "What is it! Look at how I clean him up, I'm so!".

Xia Zhan knew who he was scolding, and he had long expected this kind of result. casually asked, "What?" Things are not going well?".

"Tang Tong's guy was obviously at home, and he said that he didn't come back, but he dared to close the door tightly, and he didn't even let me in.", Pan Guohong picked up a cup of tea and drank it dry, and put his butt on the chair.

"This is his cleverness, next time I see him, I have an excuse, it seems that I still have to worry about Master Pan.", Xia Zhan must cheer him up, otherwise he is afraid that he will interrupt his plan if he is very angry.

"So what's next? Is there a good way for Xia Xiang?", Pan Guohong has no plan, everything has to rely on Xia Zhan, as long as he points to that, he will fight that, he is too lazy to use his brain, and it is in vain to think about it.

"I've been in contact with Tang Tong, and he has a smart mind. This is in the capital, he can only hide, Xia Xiang has to put pressure on him in person.", at this time, a person who had been sitting spoke.

Pan Guohong was dizzy because of anger, and he didn't notice this person, and when he looked up, he saw that it was Jin Shijun, the secretary of Dali Temple. Kim Se-jun has a quick mind and a lot of ghost ideas. So he chimed in: "Yes! If it's Xia Xiang, he won't dare to be so bold, he has to give him a good look at the color!".

Xia Zhan didn't want to put his plan out of the tray, and behaved very cautiously, "You don't care about this matter for the time being, I've already planned it, and I'll tell you when it's your turn.", he twisted his neck as he spoke, looking careless.

If you want to meet Tang Tong, Xia Zhan has a way. Tang Tong also knew that his purpose was to postpone as much as possible, and would go as far back as possible. But the sky does not follow people's wishes, this day Tang Tong is in the Department of Minerals office, received an order to see Xiong Daoyun. But when he came to Xiong Daoyun's office, he saw Xia Zhan beside him at a glance.

Tang Tong hurriedly saluted, "I've seen Xia Xiang!" I've seen Lord Shangshu!".

Xia Zhan didn't look at him at all, he was drinking tea with a teacup. Xiong Daoyun glanced at Xia Zhan, knew that he did it on purpose, raised his hand and said, "Lord Tang, please take a seat!".

This is the household yamen, although Xia Zhan is a cabinet minister, but it is Xiong Daoyun's one-acre and three-point land, do not look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha, Xia Zhan did not dare to make a mistake, Tang Tong did not ask for his consent, and sat down with peace of mind.

"What is the matter with Lord Shangshu looking for an official?", Tang Tong asked after sitting down, and did not talk about private matters in the yamen.

"How is the statistics of the number of mines in various places, what is the emperor waiting for?", Xiong Daoyun has not asked Tang Tong face-to-face since the establishment of the Yamen of the Mineral Resources Department, and he mentioned this matter as soon as he opened his mouth.

When there are only two masters and apprentices, the two of them will talk about private matters, and it is not so convenient to have Xia Zhan here." In another four or five days, the statistics will be completed, and it will be immediately presented to Lord Shangshu for inspection, and if there is anything wrong, the lower officials will correct it as soon as possible and do so!".

Xiong Daoyun nodded very satisfied, he still had a lot of official business to do, Xia Zhan had already explained his intentions, and wanted to explain it as soon as possible, he looked at Tang Tong and said: "Xia Xiang is here this time for your marriage to Miss Xia Er, what do you think?".

"That time was the same as today, without my knowledge, I was invited by Xia Xiang to the garden to see, and I happened to meet Miss Xia Er, due to the carelessness of the lower officials, and Miss Xia Er collided together, and then Xia Xiang appeared, obviously this was an unintentional mistake. Besides, there is no physical intimate contact, it is not a contempt for Miss Xia Er, if you use this matter to blackmail the lower officials, I will not accept it!", Tang Tong did not give any affection in front of Xia Zhan, and he was confident, looking at Xia Zhan with both eyes.

Xia Zhan is not a fuel-efficient lamp, if you don't care about Xiong Daoyun, pinching Tang Tong to death is like pinching a flea to death. Therefore, here in Xiong Daoyun, Xia Zhan didn't dare to be too presumptuous." Is it? Then my daughter will be humiliated in vain, and she doesn't take Xia in her eyes!".

At this moment, Xiong Daoyun naturally wanted to stand on Tang Tong's side and stood up, "Xia Xiang doesn't have to worry, talk about it, everyone takes a step back, there will always be a good way.".

Xia Zhan saw Xiong Daoyun standing up, and he couldn't refute his face, so he questioned Tang Tong: "In front of Lord Xiong, do you agree to this family business?"

"I think I have been in contact with Miss Xia many times before, and Xia Xiang didn't care about it, so I had a little physical contact with Miss Xia Er, so I was responsible. If you really want to be responsible, you will be responsible for Miss Xia, I don't dislike it, let Miss Xia reconcile, I will marry her!", Tang Tong seems to have been prepared for a long time, and he played with a false shot.

Throwing out this kind of nonsense, Xia Zhan was furious, stood up a few times, pointed at Tang Tong and scolded: "What are you and my two daughters, see if I don't tear you!", and before he said that, he went out to arrest Tang Tong.

Xiong Daoyun also knew that he was pretending, and confronting Tang Tong was looking for death, Xiong Daoyun could only step forward and stop him meaningfully, "It's all Sven, don't be rough.", said and blocked in front of him, and kept persuading: "Forget it!" Forget it!".

Xia Zhan tried to cross over several times, but he didn't succeed, and he still stiffened, "If it weren't for Lord Xiong's face, see how I can clean up your mess, you come over for me!".

Tang Tong can see the urgency of things clearly, if it really passes, it will not end well, pick up the teacup and drink tea silently. Seeing that Tang Tong did not respond, Xia Zhan sat down under Xiong Daoyun's repeated dissuasion. Still angry, he picked up the teacup and slammed it on the ground, with a bang, the teacup shattered, and the tea leaves and tea spilled on the ground. Xiong Daoyun was shocked, but Tang Tong didn't move at all, and the waiting servant outside stretched his head curiously to see if he asked himself to clean up, and when he saw that there was no pager, he walked away and waited in the distance.

"Why don't Xia Xiang go back first, and then I will persuade Tang to take charge?" Xiong Daoyun knew that the two of them were now on the tip of the needle against Mai Mang, and they couldn't talk about one place, so it was better to let the two of them calm down again, and see how Xia Zhan reacted after speaking.

This is not the place to speak, Tang Tong has the protection of Xiong Daoyun and will not take himself seriously. So he stood up, "That's Lao Xiong Shangshu!" If you sweep the face of the Xia family, don't blame me for not giving Xiong Shangshu face!", as he spoke, he walked out, and when he passed by Tang Tong, he shook his sleeves fiercely and walked forward without looking back.

Xiong Daoyun sent him out of the household yamen all the way, and Fang turned around and returned to the living room. Tang Tong was still there, and after sitting down, he looked at him and shook his head, "You can't be tactful, if you don't agree to Xia Zhan in this situation, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you as a teacher!".

"This is to deceive me! If Xia Zhan's wish is fulfilled this time, everything will be constrained by him in the future, Master! Can you bear it?", Tang Tong's eyes were expecting Xiong Daoyun's response, he believed that Xiong Daoyun would be touched when he heard it.

"But you can't do it hard, the best way is to let him stop from Xia Zhan himself, in vain, right?", Xiong Daoyun's thinking is agile, and it is also for Tang Tong's good to worry about it.

Things often have a cause and an effect, and people are constrained everywhere, and for a person who has achieved great things, it is like a thorn in the throat, and the taste is not pleasant. You have to fight back with all your might, and that has to help, and it's Xiong Daoyun. Therefore, Tang Tong bowed deeply, "Master is right! Is there a good way?".

"You are a smart person, think about it and there will be a good way.", Xiong Daoyun really hasn't thought about it yet, he has never thought of going against the Cao family's son-in-law, just like the Cao family's son-in-law didn't dare to be his enemy, and quickly kicked the ball to the other party.

Tang Tong didn't dare to ask for anything more when he heard this, "I will do what the master wants, and I have to rely on the master's help at a critical time.", said and made a big gift..

Xiong Daoyun is still quite concerned about Tang Tong's affairs, touching his beard and laughing, "As long as it is not too hot, I will try my best to maintain it!", Xiong Daoyun played a word game, he was afraid that things would reach the point where he could not be cleaned up, and he would get into trouble, and he would not hurt himself if he interceded.

After the words were finished, Tang Tong said goodbye gratefully.
