After finishing these two weddings, Jiang Fan also planned to take advantage of the New Year to go out and visit each other. He specially named this behavior called New Year greetings.
First, I went to Xu Funa to deliver some things. By the way, he shamelessly asked for a few pills for Niu Dali to use.
However, some of the ancient elixir prescriptions he sent also made Xu Fu very satisfied.
Since they had just met not long ago, the two didn't say much. Xu Fu was also anxious to see the prescription, so the two sat for a while and then said goodbye.
Then Jiang Fan surprisingly went to Li Xiu's house.
To be honest, Li Xiu was shocked.
I couldn't figure out why this person suddenly came to visit. Full of questions, I quickly opened the middle door and welcomed him with a big courtesy.
After all, this is the regent, and his status is much higher than his own.
To his surprise, Jiang Fan had nothing else to do and just came to give gifts. He said that Li Xiu did a good job dealing with Anchao last time and earned himself some face, so he came here to give some souvenirs.
Of course, seeing the so-called souvenirs made Li Xiu click his tongue, and even said that the prince was worthy of being the richest man in the world.
But he didn't refuse, and Jiang Fan was very satisfied. This man is sensible. If he refuses, it will mean that he will not be able to do things in the future. If he accepts it, he will tell himself that you can still come to me if you need anything.
When the prince came to visit, Li Xiu held a grand banquet and had a drink with Jiang Fan. The guests and hosts had a great time. At least the matter of the three thousand heads last time was finally solved with a tacit understanding between the two.
After Jiang Fan left, Mrs. Li Xiu, who had not shown her face until now, came out with a sullen look on her face.
"A thief has entered the house, but you still treat him in such a condescending manner!"
Li Xiu sighed: "Madam, you don't understand, he is showing his attitude."
Lu frowned: "Attitude? What attitude?"
Li Xiudao: "Everyone knows that King Xiaoyao is celebrating the New Year. He takes this opportunity to visit at the festival to show that the king is in harmony and show it to others."
Mrs. Lu snorted: "To save face, does he think we have forgotten those three thousand heads?"
Li Xiudao: "This is the second purpose, for us to see. It shows that he intends to expose that incident."
"That's three thousand people! He's going to do it right when he says he's going to do it?" Lu said angrily.
Li Xiu said calmly: "It's true that he will expose it when he says it will be exposed. In fact, it's not whether we want to pursue it, but whether he wants to get to the bottom of it. If he does it, can you and I bear it? So, this is Personal relationship.”
Lu was angry, but she also knew that Li Xiu was telling the truth. But he still didn't want to give in.
"Who cares about this favor? You want to silence someone after killing him? This is bullying!"
Li Xiu shook his head: "As a woman, this is why I won't let you out."
Lu said: "He didn't take me seriously at all."
Li Xiudao: "Normally, I should have asked more or less politely, but he really didn't mention a word. There is only one possibility. He did it on purpose."
"You did it on purpose? What do you mean?"
Li Xiu frowned slightly: "It means... Madam, you should restrain yourself, he has noticed you."
Lu's face was startled: "What did you say?"
Li Xiudao: "Madam, don't think that what you did behind my back is very secret. Even I can see it. Who is he? If you don't want to get burned, you should calm down as soon as possible. Otherwise, if he asks you one day, I’m afraid you won’t even have the chance to regret it.”
Lu didn't believe it: "This is impossible, he has no reason to know."
Li Xiu shook his head: "Having said that, the Lu family today is not as powerful as it was back then, but it cannot withstand his blows."
Lu's expression changed for a while, and finally he gritted his teeth and said nothing.
Li Xiu was silent for a moment: "This is the third purpose of his coming. And it seems that there is another purpose..."
Lu was confused: "Is there another purpose?"
Li Xiu thought for a long time and then said slowly: "He said something that made my husband a little uneasy..."
"What words?"
"In cleaning up the secret dynasty, Prime Minister Li took the lead, which can be regarded as an example..."
Mrs. Lu frowned: "What's the problem with this? You are indeed doing it to clean up the secret court. You have done a good job and you can indeed set an example."
Li Xiu sighed softly: "I'm just afraid that what he wants to say is... he should set an example..."
——
After going to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Jiang Fan came to the Meng family. Surprisingly, I didn't see the old handsome man, only the old lady.
After asking, I found out that the old commander was at the Meng family barracks, protecting his grandson.
The emotional formation of the Meng family's thousand troops is not in the Meng family's courtyard, but in the Meng family's army.
"Will the breakthrough be dangerous?" Jiang Fan was very worried.
The old lady said: "Of course there are dangers, but Yi'er is very talented, so it shouldn't be too difficult. The only problem is that he is too young and mentally unstable. I'm afraid there is something wrong with his heart."
"Then he still insists on taking Yuwen Cheng's heart with him. Doesn't this add fuel to the fire?"
The old lady was full of praise: "Yi'er has done well for daring to face his inner demons. If he passes this test, with Yi'er's temperament, it will be difficult for him to be troubled by his inner demons."
"But it's more dangerous after all..."
The old lady smiled and said: "This is his own choice. The more dangerous it is, the more powerful it is. Let him face it by himself. You, as a master, can't help with this matter."
Jiang Fan had no choice but to let him go. While talking, Mrs. Mengwu heard about Jiang Fan's visit and hurried from the back hall. Speaking of which, Jiang Fangui was the regent, and his status was as high as heaven. Being able to come to visit meant that the Meng family had great respect, and it was not her turn to receive him anyway. But there was something on her mind that she couldn't help.
Therefore, after seeing the ceremony, she immediately asked when to organize a wedding for her two little children.
The old lady just glared at him: "You can only start a family after you have established a successful career. This is the Meng family's motto!"
Mrs. Mengwu couldn't afford to offend the old lady, so she quickly admitted her mistake.
But let’s talk about Lin Nanyan again. According to her, her precious eldest son, Montaigne, did not care about food and drink, and was haggard because of his illness.
Jiang Fan was also helpless about this. After some hesitation, he finally decided to explain his words as soon as possible.
"Madam, Lin Nanyan has been in love with her for a long time. You'd better advise Brother Meng... to forget about her."
Mrs. Mengwu was stunned: "Who? Who is better than my Montaigne?"
Jiang Fan smiled bitterly: "Brother Meng is a good man among men, with both civil and military skills. He is one of the best men in a million. But this is not a question of whether he is good or not. I can't tell about feelings..."
Mrs. Mengwu disagreed: "Marriage is a major matter. Parents order the matchmaker. Just get married slowly."
Jiang Fan said sternly: "That's not okay. The rules among mortals are that marriage and love have their own rights, and no one is allowed to interfere."
Mrs. Mengwu was stunned: "This rule is a bit unethical..."
Mrs. Meng paused her cane and said, "Mortal people do not live in an ordinary place. My daughter-in-law should not say anything about it."
Mrs. Mengwu was stunned, and then slowly sighed: "Oh...well, it depends on whether Tian'er has that fate."
Jiang Fan deliberately changed the subject and said that the suit of armor promised to Montaigne last time had been completed and he had brought it this time.
Mrs. Meng was also very happy. She had long heard that King Xiaoyao wanted to make armor for her son. Armor is a good thing to save life on the battlefield, not to mention that it was written by King Xiaoyao, so it must be very extraordinary.
