- When the brothers returned to Xu Mansion, the entire Xu Mansion staff immediately began to get busy, supporting Xu Luo.
During the dinner, Huangfu asked Xu Luo: "Third brother, does the emperor really want you to go to the fiefdom?"
Xu Luo nodded, and then said: "What?"
Huangfu Chongzhi said with some worry: "Your fiefdom is on the northern border. If there is no war, it is indeed a good place. I have heard people say that the place is rich in products, fertile soil, and there is a big river with many valuables in it. It can be said that it is an excellent fiefdom. Back then, the sixth prince asked his father to pass that place, but his father refused on the excuse that the place was too infested with bandits"
"Bandit trouble?" Xu Jie's eyes narrowed and he said in a deep voice: "Does the emperor want to send the third child to suppress the bandits?"
"I think that's what it means!" The little fat man said on the side: "Especially in the north, the war is tense now. If banditry breaks out again, it will be very difficult for the people living in the north."
"But suppressing bandits should also be a matter for the military! We are bare-handed, and the emperor doesn't give us soldiers or money, so what can we do to suppress bandits?" The little fat man said, frowning slightly, and muttered : "Your Majesty, this is too dark"
Xu Luo smiled and shook his head and said, "Don't talk nonsense. That's my fiefdom. Even if His Majesty wants me to suppress the bandits, it's normal."
As Xu Luo said, he couldn't help but think of the trap he had set up a long time ago, and thought to himself: How many things have they done now? "
¡¡
In a small town in the north of Cangqiong Kingdom.
Brothers Tang Yong, Li Yu, Yuan Ren and Yuan Yi were sitting in a tavern drinking wine.
Looking at the gloomy weather outside, Tang Yong picked up the big bowl in front of him, took a sip of wine, and muttered: "This damn weather has made me not in the mood at all."
"Boss Tang, how can your mood be affected by the weather?" Li Yu took a sip of wine and joked.
"Nonsense! Can't I have weather that I don't like?" Tang Yong glared at Li Yu, and then said: "Li Xiaoyu, speaking of which, do you think the young master can be given a bigger official title this time when he returns to the imperial capital? ? In that case, we will be one step closer to revenge!"
"Who knows, the young master has made great achievements in the south. Normally, the emperor should reward him highly. However, in the past two days, I heard that the young master destroyed a branch of the Wei family in Hongcheng in the south. I don't know whether it is true or not. , If true, it would be very satisfying, but it might not be of any benefit to the young master himself. "
Yuan Ren said from the side: "The young master still has a sense of proportion when doing things. He must have his own ideas when doing this."
Li Yu nodded: "That's natural. Apart from the young master, I have never seen another person as smart as him."
"It's also very kind and righteous." Tang Yong took a big sip of wine and muttered: "If it weren't for the large number of young masters, my body would have rotted. How could I sit here and drink with you?"
"What happened back then is now basically certain. We wrongly blamed General Xu. If it weren't for the young master, I'm afraid we would all have done stupid things." Yuan Yi said at the side.
"Hey, it doesn't matter if you do stupid things. What I'm most afraid of is that I will become a stupid fool and I won't be able to explain to those brothers even if I die." Li Yu said, then looked outside, and there were already raindrops starting to fall. It dripped.
"Almost?" Yuan Ren also looked outside.
As a dazzling lightning flashed suddenly, a thunder sounded.
Click!
It was as if the whole world was shaking violently.
Yuan Ren stood up, grabbed a long knife on the table, put on a hat with a wide brim, and walked out first.
Afterwards, Yuan Yi, Tang Yong and Li Yu, dressed in almost the same clothes, walked out together.
The biggest wealthy family in the town has a surname of Zhang. People in the town call him Rich Man Zhang.
Very few people know the details of how rich Mr. Zhang is, but he is always good at charity, building bridges and paving roads, and has done many good deeds. Therefore, everyone in the town has a very high opinion of Mr. Zhang.
The town is located at the border of the sky, adjacent to the northern mountains, and is rich in resources. Adventurers often come and go here, so the living conditions of the residents in the town are not bad.
Rich Man Zhang is very low-key and rarely appears in public. In fact, few people know that Rich Man Zhang, who lives here all year round, is actually the son-in-law of the Imperial Prime Minister Wei Feng!
The rich man Zhang¡¯s name is Zhang Danian. When he was young, he studied at the Zhenwu Academy in the imperial capital and had a private life-long relationship with a girl from the Wei family who was born as a concubine.
Originally, Zhang Da, who came from an ordinary and even humble background,??, there is no chance of marrying the little girl of the Wei family. Even if the little girl is a concubine, he is not qualified.
But he accidentally met Prime Minister Wei Feng and was called over. After a deep talk, young Zhang Danian became the son-in-law of the Wei family.
Of course, very few people know about this matter. Except for a few people from the Wei family, no one else knows that he is such a big figure. As for the whereabouts of a concubine of the Wei family, no one cares. .
After Zhang Danian graduated from Zhenwu Academy, he returned to this northern town and started running a business. In just a few years, the business became very big. Most of the adventurers who came to the town were from the Zhang family. There are various connections.
Recently, Zhang Danian has been in a bad mood. What affected his mood was a letter he received some time ago.
Only he knew the contents of the letter. After reading it, Zhang Danian burned the letter. From that day on, the smile on his face became less and less, and he often locked himself in the study alone without seeing anyone.
Including the wife he loves and respects the mostthe concubine of the Wei family.
Zhang Danian was walking around in the study, restless. He could not have imagined that his most respected father-in-law, the prime minister of the dynasty, would actually ask him to do such a thing.
Yes, he has done a lot of things for his father-in-law in private over the years, including amassing money through various means, including spying on some intelligence in the Northern Army. He has done it all.
Although he knows that he shouldn't do these things, he is already the son-in-law of the Wei family and has been marked by the Wei family. This is an unchangeable fact. Moreover, he privately believed that doing these things was not a big deal. He had also heard about the relationship between his father-in-law's family and the military. It was reasonable to help his father-in-law do something and suppress the military forces.
But this time, the letter from his father-in-law asked him to complete a task now, and this task made Zhang Danian sleepless and even panicked to the point of being overwhelmed!
This is no longer an embarrassment, but a fear!
To put it simply, this matter is a struggle between high-level officials. To put it seriously, it is tantamount to traitorous behavior!
Zhang Danian asked himself that he was not a good person. Although he had built bridges and paved roads to accumulate virtue and do good deeds over the years, he had also done a lot of dirty and dirty things in private, but after all, these did not exceed his limits as a human being.
But this matter is really too serious!
"Could it be that my father-in-law was so overwhelmed in the court that he couldn't breathe?" Zhang Danian thought to himself. He knew very little about what happened in the court, and most of what he heard on weekdays were rumors. .
Unfortunately, he couldn't discuss it with anyone, not even his most respected wife.
This is also what my father-in-law personally said.
"Either you disappear from this world quietly; or you work for me and I will marry my daughter to you!"
This was the first thing Zhang Danian said to him when he met the powerful Wei Prime Minister.
Zhang Danian had almost no hesitation and directly agreed to work for Wei Xiang. He doesn't want to die, he wants to marry the little sister of the Wei family, he loves her very much!
This reason is enough.
Over the past few years, although he did not have any noble title or any prominent reputation, he had truly become the number one figure in this area for hundreds of miles.
His life is prosperous, his family has risen because of him, and in the eyes of his neighbors, he is still a philanthropic young rich man!
"What should I do?" Zhang Danian muttered.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and a gentle female voice sounded: "Master, are you there?"
Zhang Danian came to his senses and replied: "It's madam, come in."
The door was pushed open, and a beautiful young woman came in, holding an umbrella, and raindrops dripped from the umbrella.
The young woman put the umbrella aside, walked over, looked at Zhang Danian with a gentle face, and said softly: "Master, why have you been so restless in recent times? Is there something that is embarrassing you?"
Zhang Danian walked around the desk, came over, and took his wife's soft and white hand. Although they had been married for several years, he had never been tired of this lady.
The young woman¡¯s face turned slightly red and she said softly: ¡°This is in the study room!¡±
"Haha." Zhang Danian went over and closed the door, then hugged his wife tightly in his arms, smelled her fragrance, and murmured: "Madam, if I do something that is outraged by both humans and gods, I will definitely be cast aside by the world. Things youwill?Will you stop loving me? "
"You're so good, why do you suddenly say such things? What have you done that makes people and gods angry? And why are you despised by the world?" The young woman hugged Zhang Danian's waist and said softly: "I only know that my husband, He is a good and generous person! ¡±
"Are you a good person?" Zhang Danian smiled bitterly and thought to himself: Your fatherhe didn't even give me a chance to be a good person!
"Okay madam, it's okay, don't worry, I will always be by your side." Zhang Daqing sighed, said slowly, and then grabbed a handful of the young woman's plump butt.
The young woman Xiafei¡¯s cheeks furrowed and she yelled as if she was running away and ran out.
Zhang Danian looked at the lady's graceful back and smiled silently. Then he sat back on the chair and opened the drawer of the table. Inside, there was a large package. He stared at the package for a long time before Zhang Danian sighed. He murmured: "Tens of thousands of lives! Do you really want to do this?" - Didn't finish reading?
