In the west of Xuanwu Lake in Jinling, the most prosperous Fang City, Xufu has two houses that occupy a small area, and there are five courtyards.

This is the gathering place of wealthy merchants in Jinling City, and there are often stewards and masters in the mansions of dignitaries and dignitaries who come and go here.

The carriage was walking on the street, Xu Fan saw Zi'er looking over, showed an amazed gaze, and shook his head slightly.

Jinling City is not a loss of Jiangnan Xiongcheng, far from being comparable to Guangling Mansion. The seven or eight zhang wide street is lined with inns, wine shops, and teahouses on both sides, and occasionally you can see Goolan and Washe in the alleys not far away.

Before they entered the city, people from the second, third, and fourth rooms were sent to meet them. Under the guidance of several stewards, the Xu family and his party soon entered Xuanwu Lake West Street.

Masculine and high, since entering the city, the Xu family has attracted attention from all sides.

The wealthy merchants and magnates of Guangling Mansion who came with him quietly entered the city early in the morning and disappeared into the crowd on the main street of Jinling City.

Soon, the Xu family and his entourage came to a courtyard on Xuanwu Lake West Street, with two courtyards on the left and right and five courtyards next to each other, and the plaque was written in gilded characters "Xu Mansion".

Outside the six bronze beast head gates on the left, two stone lions are carved lifelike, one person high.

At this time, next to the stone lion, there was a row of small servants, greeting Xu Fan and the others.

The Xu Mansion is a prominent family in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are many houses in Jinling City. However, it is suitable for Guangling Xu Mansion to relocate, and the most suitable is only the courtyard here.

In Jinling City, where every inch of land is valuable, being able to buy such a large property on the shore of Xuanwu Lake can be regarded as the extraordinary vision of the ancestors of the Xu family.

Xuanwu Lake West Street is a wealthy area, and Xuanwu Lake East Street is the residence of some officials in Jinling City.

And the Xu family's house and Xuanwu Lake East Street are separated by two octagonal arches, if it is not for the ancestors of the Xu family to donate to the ancestors of the Great Qian, they will not be able to buy the house here.

The group got out of the carriage one after another under the service of the little maid and began to enter the Xu Mansion.

In the backyard of Xu's house, a rockery, the lakeside of the stream is densely covered with green bamboo, and Xu Fan named this place "Wave Garden". As for the rest of the Xu family, they all found their favorite courtyards.

The small bridge of the bamboo building, the winding path is quiet, the cool breeze blows, and the sound of gurgling water can be heard.

There are three attics in Linxi in the shape of a spelling, and in the middle is a pool of lotus flowers, among which there are many koi swimming around, and there are ripples at the starting point.

After everyone was settled, Xu Fan refused the people sent by the second, third, and fourth rooms to visit.

Even Qin Ruhai, the governor of Jinling, who had been waiting in Pinzhuxuan's study for a long time, almost didn't want to see him.

The result is not that Xu Fan wants to see it, but that he has to see it.

I met the people of Nan'an Wangfu at Jimingyi, and it was really unreasonable to not see the governor Qin after entering the city.

In today's Xu Mansion, Xu Fan knows very well in his heart that the imperial court wants the Xu Mansion industry, and the Jiangnan families also want to take the opportunity to divide it.

If the only remaining members of the Xu family want to be preserved, they must maintain a balance between all parties.

In the quiet room of Pinzhuxuan, Qin Ruhai, the governor of Jinling, was dressed in regular clothes, sitting straight on the main seat, sipping the tea in his hand.

In the next position sit Xu Wenshu and Xu Yuhui, the two current members of the Xu family.

The two of them are people in the third and fourth rooms, so naturally they can't represent the current Xu Mansion for Xu Fan.

At this moment, cold sweat continued to ooze from their foreheads, and they had just changed into some loose robes when someone came to pay homage to them, and the Governor arrived.

The two of them could only come to visit each other, but the Governor Lord Qin was always silent, just sipping tea.

There was also a middle-aged scribe sitting on the side, with a Confucian crown and a green robe, a wide face and thick eyebrows, and three wisps of green beard under his chin.

The Governor didn't say a word, and Xu Wenshu and Xu Yuhui could only raise their eyes to look at the scribe sitting opposite, and said embarrassedly, "I don't know Lord Qin..."

Without waiting for Xu Wenshu to continue, the middle-aged scribe just shook his head slightly.

Now, the two finally understood that they were going to see the young master of the Xu family, Xu Fan.

Obviously, what happened in the Jimingyi Inn did not hide from the adults in Jinling City at all. Even Lord Qin, the governor of Jinling, knew about it, not to mention the other hidden people in the city.

couldn't stand this pressure, Xu Yuhui had no choice but to owe, walked out of Pinzhuxuan, and ordered someone to hurry up.

On the other side, Xu Fancai threw out the fishing rod in his hand, leaned on the recliner, and blew the cool breeze in the forest leisurely, and there was a rush of footsteps behind him.

A relative beside Xu Yuhui gasped for breath and came to the pavilion, "Young Master, our master Yuhui, please be sure to go to Pinzhuxuan." The Governor has been waiting for half an hour. ”

After the words were passed down, he didn't get a reply for a long time, and looked up slightly in the direction of the gazebo, only to see that Xu Fan was still walking on the bamboo chair, and he had no intention of getting up.

At the attic window not far away, Zi'er saw that there was another little guy rushing here outside the bamboo forest, and she was also a little worried, so she left the half-packed bedroom and tea room, and trotted down the stairs.

As soon as Zi'er came to the pavilion, Xu Fan smiled lightly, "What?" You're going to rush me again? ”

Xu Fan's words reminded Zi'er of when she was in the Rooster Station, she passed the word for the catch of the six doors, and finally got her own young master to sleep in the empty guest room for more than an hour.

Zi'er was pretty and red, her lips were slightly white, and she finally spoke, "Young Master, it's the governor of Jinling who is here, and our Xu family can't afford to offend." Zi'er knew that this was a matter of embarrassment for the young master, but after all..."

"Alright, alright. I don't need you to comfort me. Xu Fan waved his hand and inserted the fishing rod in his hand into the gap between the blue bricks on the side. Picking up the dilapidated gourd in the ice jian, he walked towards Pinzhuxuan with his relatives more than ten steps away.

Just turned out of a hanging flower door, and collided with the second wave of people who had just rushed over to urge.

"Young Master, Master Yuhui and Master Wenshu have been waiting for you for most of the hour. If you don't go, you won't be able to save your little life. ”

"Got it." Xu Fan gently patted a little guy who was bowing in front of him, and the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked.

Just after the two gentle pats, a qi machine slapped into the shoulder of the little guy along Xu Fan's hand.

Xu Fan has been waiting for this little guy to come after waiting for him to come.

In order not to make others suspicious, especially those who pretended to stay after the disaster in the Xu Mansion.

Passing through a courtyard, Xu Fan came to Pinzhuxuan under the leadership of the little maid.

"Caomin, I've seen Lord Qin." As soon as he entered the door, Xu Fan arched towards Qin Ruhai on the main seat.

The Xu family now has nothing to worry about the Governor's Mansion of Jinling, so Xu Fan decided to let go completely and give away the outside industry.

Whether it is the princes of Shenjing, the major families in Jiangnan, or the Emperor Longxing, you can fight by yourself, our Xu family will not accompany you.

Seeing Xu Fan's indifferent expression, Qin Ruhai's gentle gaze suddenly shot out a sharp light, but it became very gentle in an instant, with a trace of concern on his face.

"Virtuous nephews don't need to be polite, sit quickly, sit quickly." Qin Ruhai raised his hand and motioned for Xu Fan to sit beside him.

Xu Fan arched his hand towards the middle-aged scribe on the side again, and then took his seat.

"Our Governor's Mansion also feels the same way about the matter of the Xu Mansion, Lord Qin has sent the government soldiers to encircle and suppress it, and he will definitely exterminate the rebels in Jiangnan Province and avenge the deep hatred for the Xu Mansion."

As soon as Xu Fan sat down, the middle-aged scribe opposite had a solemn expression, and there was a touch of murder in his tone, and a fierce aura abruptly appeared.

Xu Fan bowed his hand to Qin Ruhai again, "Thank you, Lord Qin, for avenging our Xu family." Then he arched his hand to the scribe opposite, "Thank you, sir, I don't know what to call him?" ”

The middle-aged scribe looked at the young man in front of him and said, "In Xiashenjing, the prince of the country is supervising the sacrificial wine, and Wen Changkong is empty." ”

Guozi supervised the sacrificial wine, taught the prison bachelor for the Daqian court, and had a high reputation in the Confucian forest.

Xu Fan also solemnly looked at the middle-aged scribe opposite, and the appearance of a person quickly flashed in his mind, the master of Guangling Mansion, Wen Hao.

Thoughts flew in his mind, the scribe next to Wang Wenhua of Guangling Mansion was surnamed Wen, and the scribe next to Qin Ruhai of Jinling Governor's Mansion was also surnamed Wen.

Soon, Xu Fan had a guess in his heart, they were all members of the Wen family - Wenjiao.

Although Xu Fan had a guess in his heart, he still had a shallow smile on his face, "It turned out to be a cultural sacrifice wine." Our Xu family still has a lot of trouble with the governor, and only by completely destroying the Yin and Yang Gate can we all feel at ease. ”

Qin Ruhai waved his hand, "The Yin Yang Gate traitors are a big disaster for the imperial court, and this governor will definitely not let them continue to run rampant." It is inevitable that the people of Jiangnan will have a bright future. ”

Wen Changkong sighed lightly, the gaze in his eyes swept over Xu Fan from time to time, and his tone softened a little, "The imperial court hates the traitors of the Yinyang Gate, and the Governor is even more resolute that it is difficult to tolerate the traitors, but..."

After a pause, Wen Changkong had a wisp of green beard, and then said, "It's just that the Governor's Mansion wants to support the soldiers of Jiangnan Province, and it's already..."

Wen Changkong didn't say it explicitly, but he had already said it very clearly. The Governor's Mansion can help the Xu family avenge it, but the soldiers of Jiangnan Province can't be dispatched in vain, shouldn't your Xu family express it.

What's more, this time it was Governor Qin who came to the door in person, are you embarrassed to be more meaningful?

Xu Wenshu and Xu Yuhui's faces were already pale. They Xu Mansion only escaped, but they didn't expect the Governor's Mansion to come and fall into the well immediately.

Xu Fan's expression was as usual, without the slightest reluctance.

The property of the Xu Mansion outside could not be saved, and Xu Fan had to continue to clean up and drive all those who had ill intentions out of the mansion.

Before his strength is restored, he must develop in a low-key manner, and it is a very cost-effective thing to exchange Xu Fu's industry outside for the safety of everyone for a short time.

"Only when the Yin and Yang Gate is exterminated, can the soul of Xu Fu's death rest in peace. As long as the Governor's Palace needs it, our Xu family will never refuse. ”

Xu Fan had already made up his mind in his heart, no matter who came, the Xu family would give their full support.

And those industries in Xufu, you can fight for them, and it is best to fight for a head and blood.

"That's great, the Governor's Mansion will definitely remember the loyalty of the Xu family, and it will also go to the court to ask for grace for the Xu family." Wen Changkong clapped his hands, and his eyes showed joy.

Before coming, he was worried that the Xu family's kid would shirk for various reasons.

Now it seems that the teenager on the other side is really a teenager.

For the plan in Xu Fan's heart, how could Wen Changkong not know.

However, as long as the Governor's Mansion gets the promise of the Xu family, and has the righteousness of exterminating the rebellion, who can clearly disobey in Jiangnan Province?
