Chapter 35: Taking advantage of the situation (I)

Is this also... written by the left hand?

With the ability to draw left and right arrows that he has learned over the years, coupled with the direction of the writing and the traces of ink stains, Xu Xun suddenly recognized the seemingly clumsy handwriting as a left-hand book. However, after recognizing this and seeing the content clearly, his doubts became even greater. Regardless of whether the reminder above was true or false, who was the person who threw the stone to deliver the letter?

In just a moment, a pretty face appeared in his mind. At first he thought that this sudden thought was because the little girl had impressed him too deeply, but when he thought about the little girl's reminder several times, he could be considered a well-informed person. He lowered his head again and looked at the handwriting carefully. Perhaps he had a firm opinion in his heart. From the horizontal and vertical strokes, he always felt a hint of graceful cunning. When he thought of the little girl's smile and anger, he smiled unknowingly.

Huitong habitually wanted to tease her, but when she spoke, she found that Xu Xun's smile could be seen with a rare tenderness. He remembered the action just now, and he felt a little moved. He immediately laughed and said, "Why, he is an acquaintance?"

Thinking that the news might have been sent by the little girl, Xu Xun didn't show Huitong the note. After folding it, she put it in her arms and replied casually: "Maybe."

"If you are really an acquaintance, Xu Qishao, please introduce me tomorrow. I didn't expect that there are such skilled figures in Nanjing city hidden in the city." Huitong said while paying attention to Xu Xun's expression. Seeing that he was unmoved, he smiled, "Jin Liu is a good guy who drives a car. He can also pull a broken car and fiddle with him steadily and quickly. In addition, the curtains are so thick that they can knock open the curtain and throw it into the car with a small stone, and it can not be alarmed. This trick will take at least decades of hard practice."

When the monk raised the word "skill", Xu Xun was already secretly concerned, but his face was still as if nothing had happened. When he heard the explanation of the second half, he glanced at the monk dressed in the class beside him and couldn't help but laugh: "If I hadn't known that you were a monk, and I would have thought you were the trainees who made a living from the edge of the knife."

Huitong's original intention was to inquire about Xu Xun's foundation, but unexpectedly he leaked his own background. When he regretted his words, he smiled and stopped saying a word. However, when he didn't say anything, Xu Xun would not let him go. He talked about all the world and made a big deal. Finally, he mentioned the Shen family, who originally lived in Jurong for the past, and asked about the customs and customs of the counties near Nanjing as if curious. Seeing that Xu Xun had not continued to ask about the previous situation, Huitong didn't care at all and said it better. When Xu Xun mentioned Jurong, he curled his lips.

"There are many high-ranking and noble land in Jurong. After all, the Jiangnan region is fertile, and anyone who takes advantage of it is a big advantage. However, there are many hundred-year-old fields there. The owner refuses to change hands easily, and the wasteland has long disappeared. If you want to talk about the land price, no one will be willing to sell it with a hundred taels of silver per mu, let alone treasure money. A few years ago, for a piece of Feng Shui treasure land, the people under the two big bosses of the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Revenue of Nanjing and Eunuch Zheng, who has been guarding Nanjing for many years, even had a lot of verbal lawsuits, but in the end there was no result."

Although Huitong only spoke a few words, Xu Xun had a rough perception and did not go deeper. Along the way, he still talked with Huitong. Gradually, he felt that although this monk was sometimes vulgar and sometimes elegant, he knew and saw a lot. Coupled with the skills and eyesight he showed at the beginning, it was obvious that it was extremely human. Just as he was interested, he heard Huitong talking about a situation where he encountered a horse thief when he was smuggling out of the caravan, a dongdong sound suddenly came from outside the carriage.

"Young Master, the Nancheng Military and Ma Si Yamen has arrived."

After visiting Yingtian Prefecture and visiting the Nancheng Military Affairs Office at this moment, Xu Xun couldn't help but wonder. If it weren't for Jin Liu's just saying that he had arrived, he would have no idea that he had gotten out of the car. The old wall of the gate was low, and the noise came from inside from time to time. It was actually the Nancheng Military Affairs Office that was in charge of the security of hundreds of streets and alleys in the south of Jinling City.

He stood in front of the door for a while, and he didn't see anyone passing by in the alley, and there was not even a single guard at the open door. Instead, the sound of rolling dice inside became more and more noisy.

"Hurry up, buy it and leave, don't miss the business of my plan later!"

"I can't make a mistake! Besides, when did you become so diligent, you're just an old man or a beautiful girl!"

"Bah! There is no big girl with money. The wives in Liuxiang can curry favor with money when they see it!"

"You are lucky. You can get two cents of money for such a small matter. Why didn't it be my turn to have such a good thing!"

Xu Xun, who was standing outside the door, heard this and immediately strode forward. Just as he was about to call someone, a man in a grass-green robe walked out of the main room quickly. A pair of eyes on both sides recognized each other. Xu Xun saw the other sign at him and immediately stopped. A military man who was shaking dice in the yard glanced at this and smiled and said, "Why, is there an acquaintance coming to find Mr. Jiang?"

"It's my eldest nephew!"

Jiang Li said without looking back. Seeing that a group of people were not concerned about it, and then clamored to continue the gambling scene, he immediately walked out quickly, pulled Xu Xun to the carriage outside without saying a word, and lowered his voice: "Teacher Zhu personally spoke about old man Xu. I have helped a few words, but I can't resist the eldest young master of the Xu family coming in person. Master Xu is very handsome, and the two executioners have handled him. This matter is impossible, and he should not take it lightly. Commander Zhu said that the fire in peace is a big deal. If he doesn't beat the board and kill him, he will not listen to anyone who pleads!"

As soon as these words came out, Xu Xun's face was slightly dark, but Huitong, who was standing beside him, had already sneered. Jin Liu, who was approaching him, took a breath when he heard this. He remembered that the guy outside Qingping Tower last night that his young master met an amazing nobleman, so he tentatively said: "Young master, why don't you go and ask that person..."

Before he could finish his words, he immediately closed his mouth when he saw Xu Xun throwing a stern look. After Xu Xun stopped Jin Liu, he gave Huitong a look, which was obviously unable to control himself, and then bowed to Jiang Li's eyes.

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for telling this."

"It should be." Jiang Limu remembered the little money that Xu Xun had collected last night, and later Wu Shouzheng gave him an extra five taels. He was originally planning to take a trip to Taipingli, but he could run into the door at this time, so he could not take such a good path. However, what Xu Xun said next made him hesitate unconsciously.

"Since Commander Zhu doesn't listen to people's pleading, can you bother Mr. Jiang to delay the execution time by one or two? Now it's morning, I just ask Mr. Jiang to delay at least noon, the longer the better. After the matter is completed, I will thank you very much!"

If you want to ask for mercy, Commander Zhu's words had already eliminated this path, but if you want to delay, Jiang Limu thought for a moment and looked back at the courtyard where the noise was getting louder and louder. He thought about his meager salary and less and less investment, and finally nodded in focus: "Okay, I'll try it. But I have to say it first. At most, it's difficult to delay it again in the afternoon. Master Seventh should try it quickly!"

Seeing Jiang Li go back to the yard with a gust of wind, Xu Xun stood for a moment and turned his head to Jin Liu and ordered: "Go to Yingtian Prefecture."

Jin Liu, who understood, went back to drive the car, but Huitong frowned and said, "Young Master Xu Qi, do you want to ask your sixth uncle? Although he had just been promoted, he was only a seventh-rank official in the government office, and he was ranked last in the government office. Commander Zhu of the Nancheng Military and Ma Si is a serious sixth-rank chief officer, and may not be able to buy face. Instead of trying to get a problem, it is better to hand over this matter to me and take advantage of the delay of Jiang Limu, I will take out Xu Ba!"

"Do you want to go to the end of the Shanghai arrest document with Uncle Xu?" Xu Xun asked in a deep voice. Seeing Huitong speechless for a moment, he turned around and walked towards the carriage, but said without looking back, "If you don't want to, then listen to me!"

After listening to me, Huitong couldn't help but stand there. Seeing that Xu Xun had just gotten on the carriage, he gently closed his hands and grinned for a moment: "Well, I'll see what strange tricks you, Mr. Xu Qi, can do!"
