Xie Mansion, the entire Health City is second only to the Imperial City and the Royal Mansion, and the third place is the mansion. The courtyards in the mansion are deep and are a typical Jiangnan garden style. Although the area is inferior to the Imperial City and the Royal Mansion, the built-in scenery is no less than that of the first two.

The lake stone rockery in the garden is from the hands of the great masters of Jiangnan. Each mountain and one peak is full of vitality, with one stone and one crack, and it is well-informed. It is praised by various famous families to be unique in Jiangnan. You should know that the gardens in Jiangnan are the best in the world. It can be seen that the Xie Mansion is unique ingenuity, and countless plaques, couplets, carved flowers, trees and stone tablets are carved.

In the pavilion in the center of the lake in the garden, two elegant men sat upright, as if they were fishing leisurely.

"I heard that my uncle had a dispute with the Wang family this morning, so I wanted the Northern Palace troops to send troops to the north to fight?" The younger man said. This person was Xie Xuan, the famous scholar in Jiangzuo. Sitting in front of him was Xie An, who had just argued with Wang Dun and retreated to the court.

Xie An nodded, "I'm still a little too anxious."

He dared not underestimate the nephew of Xie Xuan, a clan. He discussed with him many major issues, without any intention of hiding them. Among the many children of the Xie family, Xie Xuan was the only one who could catch Xie An's eyes. Xie An has always been deliberately cultivating Xie Xuan, and in order to compete with the Wang family in the future, he must at least take on the burden of the Xie family.

There are talents in the world who have emerged in the past, and they must be better than others. In this position of family and old age, these young people have to take over.

Hearing Xie An return, Xie Xuan bowed, "Please forgive my nephew for saying frankly, my uncle's move is indeed a bit reckless. Now, our Xie family has not yet competed with the Wang family, and it will be unfavorable for us to go against the Wang family in a rash manner. It is better to continue to hide our strength and wait for a fatal blow."

Xie An glanced at Xie Xuan and smiled, "It's not easy to have a fatal blow. This opportunity is hard to come by. I thought that if I could win the opportunity for the Northern Expedition this time, I took advantage of the Northern Prefecture Army to expand the prestige of our Xie family and win more voice. I didn't expect that the emperor would bet on the wrong treasure this time."

"Sima Rui is afraid that he is also thinking of Mingzhe to protect himself. After all, this throne was highlighted by his royal family. Since he can support him, he can be abolished and re-established." Xie Xuan said.

If Xie Xuan was so ruthless, if Xie An said it to the other clans, he would definitely scold him fiercely. However, he just sneered at Xie Xuan. This young man had a higher heart than that day, but he also had the ability to be taller than the sky.

"How should I deal with the emperor's commendation this time?" Xie Xuan continued to see that Xie An did not answer.

"Return it back to me intact. Since there was no agreement in the court just now, there was no need to do this afterwards. Besides, I, Xie An, didn't know what Sima Rui'an is thinking. I want to pull me into the water to fight with this Wang Dun, so he thought too simply." Xie An replied lightly.

"Will Sima Rui be so angry when he does this?"

"What are you afraid of when a tiger locked in a cage? Do you still need to see his expression?" Xie An said disdainfully.

Xie Xuan nodded and smiled softly, "What my uncle said is, then I will arrange for the butler to return the imperial edict and reward to the palace intact."

"Well, this is a ease of relationship with the Wang family!" Xie An sighed.

The steward of Xie's mansion returned all the imperial edicts and edicts of Sima Rui according to the master's wishes. When the head of the palace received this, they were all shocked. It was a strange thing that had never been seen in the ages. The emperor's imperial edict was actually returned, and all of them had been sealed with jade seals and distributed to various departments for implementation. Now, it was good to return it to the parties involved.

The master in charge was in trouble, and this was not something he could bear. Since ancient times, who had the courage to disobey the imperial edict. In the end, he had no choice but to ask someone to find the general manager Wang En to discuss. At this time, everyone did not dare to report it, for fear of angering Long Yan.

When Wang En saw that this matter was extraordinary, it was a blatant challenge to the emperor's authority. If it was not handled properly, Sima Ruike would be ashamed in the future. So Wang En told everyone to keep this matter safe and bring a few people to Xie's mansion with the imperial edict.

When Xie's mansion received a visit from Wang En, he opened the door to welcome guests. Xie An met with the general manager Wang En in the inner mansion. When he saw the imperial edict in Wang En, Xie An understood what Wang En was doing.

So Xie An tactfully shut down the slaves. After all, this was a sensitive matter to avoid spreading the right and wrong. Wang En also ordered his subordinates to leave, and only Xie An and Wang En were left, so they could talk straight to each other.

"Sir Xie, is there something wrong with your move?" Wang En said first.

"Did you say that this is the matter of reversing the imperial edict?" Xie An smiled faintly.

"Since Lord Xie understands, why do you still ask? Can you consider how much impact this move will have on the emperor?" Wang En also said warmly and tone, this matter is not tough, after all, the strength of the Xie family is there.

"Xie was dull and didn't think much about it. It was just that in the court this morning, Xie had given the emperor a chance, but the emperor didn't seem to mind carrying me on his back. Since that's the case, why should I put myself in the quagmire?"

Wang En is a smart man, so he understands what Xie An said, saying, "It's not that the emperor doesn't want to cooperate with Lord Xie, but he just considers some other factors. Now Lord Xie also knows that the government affairs in the court are basically controlled by Wang Dun. If the Northern Expedition is gone without his support, how easy is it?"

Xie An looked at Wang En, "Xie understands what my father-in-law said, but since the emperor wants to cooperate, he must come out with some sincerity. It is impossible for me to pave the road and wait for the emperor to pick the fruits."

Wang En looked back at Xie An, thought for a while, and said, "I will ask the emperor to persuade Wang Dun to agree to the Northern Expedition, and the Northern Palace soldiers are the vanguard. I hope Lord Xie will accept this imperial edict so as not to lose the emperor's kindness."

"If this is the case, that would be great. I, Xie, thank the emperor for his kindness for the time being." After Xie An said that, he walked over and took the imperial edict from Wang En.

No matter what means you, Sima Rui, as long as you, Sima Rui can handle Wang Dun and ask the Northern Army to send troops to the Northern Expedition, I, Xie An, will be happy to accept this imperial edict. If you do not wipe out your Sima Rui's face, as long as you can achieve a smooth Northern Expedition, the rise of the Xie family is just around the corner.

The reason why Wang En responded for Sima Rui was to protect his only long face. If Xie An retreated the imperial edict and opened up, who would take the emperor seriously in the future and hope to return to the hometown of the Central Plains?

Wang En, who left Xie's mansion, sighed deeply. After all, the Dayin Dynasty would probably have the day to come to an end.
