Chapter 115: Seeking wealth and honor in danger (1)

Although Xu Jin was only 80 years old and was arrested for three years, Mrs. Xu was only called to the yamen for one time, and the family of the dead Ding Shuncai was properly handled by a huge cost. She escaped the misfortune of being retired and did not really go to prison for lawsuits. However, with the loss of the position of patriarch, most of the family's wealth was dissipated with these two lawsuits. The house of Xu's family, which was once glorious, suddenly became an empty shell, and the cause and effect were even more circulating throughout the peace.

As a well-informed person, Jin Liu naturally found out the small details clearly. Others said that Xu Tiao and the third and fourth rooms were attacking each other, but he firmly believed that it was his young master who was behind the scenes. He was even more attentive and thoughtful in front of Xu Xun for a while. Seeing that Xu Xun's attitude towards him gradually recovered, he was probably the one who used a car when he went out, and he was probably not Xu Liang anymore. He had been hanging high in his heart for many days and had just put down the huge rock little by little, but he didn't dare to be negligent.

However, when Xu Xun called him and his wife to the main room that day and saw the packed vine boxes and several neatly tied bags in the corner, he felt a sudden slap in his heart and his face suddenly became very ugly. At this time, the woman next to him was still ignorant and asked in a fuss: "Young Master, are you going to move after packing up these many things?"

"Say less, no one treats you as a mute!" Jin Liu glared at his wife fiercely. Seeing that he closed his mouth reluctantly, he hurriedly smiled at Xu Xun and said, "Young Master, don't beggar with her ignorant wife. If you have any questions, please give me instructions, and the younger one will do as soon as possible."

"It's nothing big to ask you to come today. There is only one thing to know. I'm going to leave for Beijing in a few days, and this house will be loaned to Aunt Liu and others for the time being. It may take a long time to come back. If you two want to stay, I say to Uncle Liu. Aunt Liu should still use you as it is, and you will increase your salary by 20% if you want to find someone else. If I want to find someone else, I won't force you. I will give you twenty taels of silver and I will thank you for your hard work for the past few years."

When Jin Liusao heard that Xu Xun was going to Beijing, she was really surprised. When she heard that Xu Tiao's family would move over and still use them, she breathed a sigh of relief. But when Xu Xun said she could give them twenty taels of silver and let them find another job, her mind became more active. However, before she could choose a way out, Jin Liu actually spoke in front.

"Young Master, you have been to the capital for a long time. There are only two people around you, Ruisheng and Tao Hong, how can this be done? Besides, Ruisheng doesn't know how many days you can with you. Tao Hong is new to you, and he is not familiar with many things. He doesn't have two proper people to take care of. If there is something wrong, it's not easy to deal with. The young man has been away for many years, and he is familiar with the world and the world. It's best to go to the capital with you. My wife is quick-witted and can be a chef in the capital. She can also take the lead in the affairs of this room, and she is definitely much more reliable than hiring someone new."

"You are crazy, you are..."

Jin Liu's sister-in-law shouted in desperation, but as soon as the word "crazy" was said, Jin Liu covered her mouth. Jin Liu didn't care about his composure and nodded and smiled at Xu Xun, "Young Master, look, this woman is so happy. The young man has long wanted to see what the situation in the capital is like. Now that there is this opportunity, you must take care of us. The young man is good at driving the car and guarding the door. As for the wages, you only need to give it to him as you used to...Oh!"

Unpredicted that Jin Liusao was bitten by the tiger's mouth. Jin Liu screamed out loud, and then gritted his teeth and endured the pain. Before Xu Xun could speak, he dragged Jin Liusao out. When he arrived at the door, he shouted: "Young Master, the little one is just a word in his heart!"

Until the couple left the room, there was a noise outside first, then scolded and slapped him, and a vague word of wealth and honor came. Finally, with a whimpering sound, it finally calmed down. Xu Xun couldn't help laughing. Seeing that Ruisheng and Tao Hong were puzzled for a while, he didn't explain, but only ordered the two to go to the room to check what was missing.

Jin Liu was a little slick and talkative. He was worried about letting him participate in those secret matters, but after all, he was used to it. Instead of going to the capital and looking for another servant, it would be better to bring this couple with him. It should be noted that they were blinded when they arrived in the capital and had to rely on him closely. Moreover, Ruisheng was going to enter the palace; Monk Huitong had to hurry to keep his hair, and it was impossible for him to stay at home and be in charge of the current people; Xu Liang was the main person in this trip; there was only one Tao Hong around him, and his hands were tight. Although Wang Shikun said he wanted to send him two servants to serve him, Fu Rong also mentioned that he wanted to send a few guards, but it was not more reliable than Jin Liu who knew the truth.

"I hate you when I use it..."

According to Xu Tiao's idea, after Xu Xun left Beijing, he asked someone to renovate and paint the house and then slowly move in. However, Xu Xun was resolute and made people inform him in a few days, saying that the house had been vacated. He was shocked and hurriedly took Zhu Sihai to come over in person. Only then did he realize that Xu Xun had packed his luggage and would move to the eunuch's mansion on Changfu Street to stay for a few days. Then he set off directly from there. While putting down his mind, he would inevitably have another layer of hidden worries.

Sure enough, in just two or three days, Fu Rong sent someone to summon him. He quickly changed his official uniform and put on his casual robe, and rushed to the door of the mansion. He was not someone else's waiting for him, but Chen Lu, who is now in charge of Nanjing Jinyiwei. As soon as he met, Chen Lu stared at him and asked, "Are you ready?"

Xu Tiao was originally a delicate and clear person. When he heard this, his guess became convinced. He immediately nodded with a smile on his face and said, "Don't worry, Lord Chen, the officials are all ready. Rushi Xiaoqi still doesn't believe it, even the three and four bedrooms can testify. Fortunately, the eldest house had a quarrel and the imperial court praised him. Now everyone in Taiping knows this matter. If necessary, everyone will testify."

"That's good." Chen Lu always had a stern face, but his face suddenly cleared, "This matter has been done, Eunuch Fu will not lose your benefits."

"It is a blessing for the lower-ranking officials to be able to serve their father-in-law."

Seeing that Xu Tiao was aware of the knowledge and tactfulness, Chen Lu stopped talking, and turned around and walked in front of him. Although it was not the first time that Xu Tiao, who was following behind, still walked in a regular manner and did not dare to look at him. After stepping into the spacious study, he saluted Fu Rong, and saw Xu Xun beside him with a dull expression, as if he had not seen him come in. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Although Xu Xun was smart and capable, and had to work hard for so many things, he could still get the eyes of several noble people, but he was still a child after all. Faced with such completely unexpected things, he finally couldn't accept it!

Fu Rong raised his hand and signaled Xu Tiao to get up, then said to Xu Xunnu, "It's good that you're here. This kid doesn't believe that what we told him is the truth. Xu Liang is a dull and can't speak. You can explain what you know to him. If he doesn't believe it, our family can only call all the heads of the Xu clan in Taipingli to see if he can get his mind open again!"

"Xiao Qi." Although Xu Xun had spoken out about the clan the last time, Xu Tiao always liked to use this title in order to show his affection. At this time, it was no exception. "I know you will not be able to believe this for a while. After all, your father brought you back and raised you for so many years. Even if you were together, it was a father-son after all. But in the early years, there were discussions among the people of our Xu clan. When your father brought you back, there were always people saying that you and your father were not like..."

Xu Tiao was talking bitterly. Xu Xun seemed to listen absent-mindedly, but in fact he didn't miss a word. On the contrary, he was deliberately paying attention to the expressions of everyone in the room, especially Xu Liang's expression. He found that although Xu Liang lowered his head, he glanced at him from the corner of his eyes from time to time, and there seemed to be a little anxious and concerned in his eyes. He felt helpless and funny, confused and alert in his heart, and he was so mixed that he didn't know what it felt.

He is not a real 15-and-a-half-year-old boy, of course he knows that the probability of such coincidences in this world is almost zero. Even if he is really not Xu Bian's biological son, there are so many people who can prove that he is the dead son of Xu Liang back then? It is obvious that Fu Rong came forward, Chen Lu and Xu Tiao ran around and made such a thing come true! But this matter is quite serious. It seems that Fu Rong, the big slut that is one of the top figures on the ground of Jinling alone, seems to be impossible to do it!

From the bottom of his heart, he did not want to recognize Xu Bian, a father he had never met, and he respected and kind to Xu Liang. Whether from the perspective of human nature or utilitarianism, it was just that he wanted to recognize Xu Liang as his father. But since he was praised by the court for his filial piety, Fu Rong and others appreciated the courage and talent he showed, and were more at ease with his affection and character. Now he has changed from Xu Bian's son to Xu Liang's son. If he doesn't fall into panic, he will not be a monster, but will appear completely inhumane!

Therefore, it was not until Xu Tiao was dry and he raised his head in a daze, then stood up and bowed to the crowd, "Eunuch Fu, Lord Chen, Uncle Xu, Sixth Uncle, I am in a mess now and don't know what to say for a while. Please forgive me for being unscrupulous and surrender first."

Seeing that Xu Xun had left without hesitation, Xu Tiao was about to stop him, but Chen Lu had to wink at him, he could only smile and said, "After all, he is still a child. Wan Wang Eunuch Fu and Lord Chen forgive him for his crime of losing his etiquette."

"If such a big thing is still as quick as before, that would be really wrong!" Fu Rong smiled, then glanced at Xu Liang, but said in a deep voice, "Xu Liang, it's only after he was lost and recovered. Follow him from afar, don't let this child get into trouble. Our family can't even look forward to such a good son!"

Seeing Xu Liang getting up without saying a word and then hurriedly left the study room, Fu Rong then let out a long sigh and gently pounded his forehead. He was just out of caution that Chen Lu had checked Xu Liang's life experience and so on carefully. He found that the time when Xu Bian carried Xu Xun back was exactly half a year away from the time when Xu Liang died of his son. However, he wanted to mention Xiao Jing, the eunuch in charge of the capital city's chief seal. However, after several letters, Xiao Jing proposed this again.

Xu Xun was his son's savior, and he helped him to defeat Zhao Qin in one fell swoop. Of course, he wanted to give Xu Xun a bright future, but he didn't expect that the eunuch, the Sili Superintendent, who had been ups and downs in the capital, would have made it happen. The one who was not so kind and no one knew what they were thinking. It should be noted that Fu Rong was just a top figure in Nanjing, but the one who was a ruthless character who turned his hand in the court. But in the face of wealth and honor, if you want to be a superior person, you have to fight hard, and it depends on whether Xu Xun can figure it out. After all, this is also a good opportunity, and no one can ask for it!
