"Gao Rong obeys the order."
"The general is here."
"On the twenty-seventh day, hundreds of canals will be destroyed. There must be no mistakes."
"General, take your orders!"
As Gao Rong's cloak stirred up a dark cloud and strode away, Jiang Fan sat there with extremely deep eyes...
——
The morning court meeting the next day was as simple and fast as ever. The regent seemed not to read the memorial at all, just dismissed some things casually, and hurriedly left the court with the excuse of not having breakfast. He didn't even care about Li Xiu's memorial for the secret court incident, and asked him to investigate more ruthlessly before going further.
Li Xiu smiled bitterly. The undercover involvement was too deep and wide. This time it had caused a huge undercurrent. Many things needed to be considered as soon as possible. However, the regent seemed to feel that the fire was not strong enough and the intensity was much lower. This made Li Xiu begin to feel that something was wrong. Something is vaguely wrong.
After returning home, Li Xiu found his wife and told her with extreme caution that he should stop all actions immediately and put all thoughts on hold. His intuition told him that there might be a big chaos, and he must not get involved in this chaos.
Lu was very angry and inevitably made a scene, but was eventually scolded by Li Xiu and driven back to the inner courtyard.
Although she was angry, she was helpless for the time being, because she seemed to have to admit what Li Xiu said. The Lu family and Li Xiu did have an interdependent relationship. If something happened to Li Xiu, it would be of no benefit to her or the Lu family. As for the important matters in the court, Li Xiu obviously has a much deeper view than her wife.
Putting down all his annoyance, Li Xiu pressed his hand on a bamboo slip on the bookshelf. With a rotation, an entrance to the passage appeared behind the screen in the study.
Li Xiu stared for a moment and walked in slowly...
——
This morning, everyone waited all morning for the meeting, and finally received the news from Zhao Gao that the regent was not in good health and had to stop going to court for the day.
Everyone was confused. If you're lazy, just be lazy. Why did you skip work?
Although everyone was talking in low voices and complained about the empress being handed over to the Lazy King as regent so hastily, fortunately, no one dared to question His Majesty's intentions.
Only Li Xiu kept things as usual. After discussing some matters with everyone, he let the officials go back to work.
Since Prince Jiang bathed in the blood of beasts, his dragon spirits and tigers have become very fierce. Why is he so uneasy? Now he sneaks back into the mortal world to feed the fish.
It was quite comfortable, lying on the rocking chair and feeding the fish while listening to the erhu.
Mr. Feng's erhu playing is really good. Jiang Fan has never heard a better erhu solo in his past life.
After feeding the elixir in his hand, he complained a few times that Jiang Xiaoyu never grew taller. After harvesting a few strings of bubbles, Mr. Jiang clapped his hands and said, "Mr. Feng, are you still used to living with mortals?"
Mr. Feng looked good. He put away his erhu and said, "Mortals live in extraordinary places. This has really opened my eyes to the world. Even the abode of gods and humans is incomparable."
Jiang Fan smiled and said: "It's where mortals live. Wherever heavenly beings live, we've never been there."
Feng Laodao: "My lord, you are so humble. Even the old man has benefited a lot, especially the alchemy master's elixir is very effective in treating the old man's internal injuries. In such a good place, the old man can't wait to live in it forever."
Jiang Fan said: "It's a pity that Mr. Feng may not be able to enjoy it for the time being."
Mr. Feng said: "Could it be that the prince has something to do?"
Jiang Fan thought for a while: "Mr. Feng, do you still have feelings for the Zheng family?"
Hearing this, Mr. Feng's expression changed slightly: "I have been favored by three generations of family masters. This kindness is extremely generous. Now that the young master is young, I am not willing to accept it. I must find some way in my lifetime."
Jiang Fan smiled: "Then, I'm afraid Mr. Feng can't retire here and go back to southern Xinjiang."
Mr. Feng still couldn't help but feel his heart tremble. In his opinion, Jiang Fan's words obviously meant something.
"I wonder what the prince has planned?"
Jiang Fan said: "Go back and help me see two things..."
After he explained slowly, Mr. Feng was thoughtful. Jiang Fan didn't bother him and just let him think about it.
After a while, a strange light flashed across Mr. Feng's eyes: "Old man, I will do my duty."
Jiang Fan nodded: "I will arrange manpower for you. In addition, take this tips bag. If there is anything difficult to do when you arrive in southern Xinjiang, open it and take a look. It will help you."
Mr. Feng took it and carefully hid it in his arms.
Jiang Fan said: "I am just worried about Mr. Feng's health. Could he take on this responsibility?"
Mr. Feng said with a smile: "Finally, the prince is willing to let the old man go south. It's not too late to be happy. His health is fine. With the care of the immortal Sun and the alchemy master, the old man feels much better in the past two days. These hidden diseases are not the result of a day's care. The Pharaoh has woken up and can solve it by himself."
Jiang Fan nodded, knowing that this old servant had long planned to return to southern Xinjiang and regain the family property for the young master. Now that he has his own protection for little Pixiu, even if he is allowed to stay, he may not be able to keep him. It's better to give him something to do, which will make it easier for him to bear this breath.
Naturally, Jiang Fan had a deeper intention. In addition to some things that needed to be done by him, who was familiar with the five major clans, Jiang Fan had never stopped thinking about the Zheng family who was in charge of Nanchu Shipping.
But he doesn't plan to bring these things to the table for the time being. After all, everything has just begun and there are too many variables.
And Mr. Feng is also a man who has matured with age, so he will naturally not be ignorant of the matter. He just said: "Your Majesty gave me the opportunity, and I am very grateful. Sisi is the only one who needs more care from Your Majesty."
Of course Jiang Fan didn't say anything: "Little Pixiu can't see grandpa during this period, I'm afraid he will be in trouble."
Mr. Feng shook his head and said with a smile: "This child is strong. The prince doesn't have to worry about her. She has been playing crazy these days in the mortal residence. There are no children here. When she comes, she is regarded as a pistachio. Isn't that right? Early this morning, I went out to Luoyanpo with Miss Lin, Miss Tian and Big Big Wolf to catch rabbits."
Jiang Fan couldn't help but laugh out loud. Lin Xiaoqi was a child of all ages, while Tian Luoyu was a child who wouldn't grow up. With them, he really couldn't be lonely.
Of course, Jiang Fan doesn't worry much about safety issues. There are farmers in Luoyanpo.
"Then, Mr. Feng, why not hurry up and leave as soon as possible, lest you won't be able to let go of the child when he comes."
Mr. Feng also nodded and said: "That's what I meant. I will write a letter and leave it to Sisi later and then I will go on my way."
Jiang Fan said: "Remember, work comes second and safety comes first."
Mr. Feng was a little touched. Since he came to Mortal Residence, he has seen the harmony of Mortal Residence, where everyone is as close as a family, and he has become more and more convinced of the young king's character.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I'm awake now. I want to see Sisi grow up."
…
After Mr. Feng left, Jiang Fan felt a little sleepy. It was not that he was out of energy, but that he wanted to sleep as soon as he felt comfortable. Besides, the weather was very nice, and it was so comfortable to squint under the umbrella.
But he was interrupted by a timid guy asking for permission.
Jiang Fan looked at his left eye with a big black circle and no sleep at all.
"I'll go! Prince, did you... hit the door panel or... who beat you up?"
Boss Du Lun was embarrassed and stood there rubbing his hands.
