That night, Xu He called someone to call Xie Liangcai, and then told Brother Defu about Su Yaoguang.
After Xie Liangcai heard that Su Yaoguang was actually a rebel water bandit, he stayed where he was and looked at Xu He in disbelief, as if Xu He was joking with him.
Xu He pointed to the room and asked him to look at it in disbelief.
Unexpectedly, Xie Liangcai waved his hand and sighed: "Although Miss Yaoguang and I just sing poems and sing harmonies on weekdays and have no physical relationship, when I heard about the girl's life experience, I felt that I, a [friend who met her at a party] ], it’s better not to show up!”
Xu He thought about it, it was indeed polite!
Xie Liangcai took out a two hundred tael silver note from his sleeve and handed it to Xu He: "Give it to her, don't say it's from me, just tell her to buy some hairpin skirts, don't wrong yourself!"
How to arrange Tan Lun and Su Yaoguang is a very complicated matter.
There are eyes all around him, especially during this period of time, when people from the palace and the court come in and out. If someone finds out that he is harboring rebels, his head will be lost.
After thinking about it, Xu He suddenly remembered that what the King of Shu gave to [Wu Jiansheng] was actually Luo Cheng's house to himself.
So he went to Tan Lun and said, "Mr. Zili, my home is not very safe. There are several houses in the outer city. Why don't you and Miss Su go there to settle down?"
At this time, Tan Lun was not as neutral as he was at the beginning, but nodded: "Those who are captured, please do as you please!"
Xu He smiled and said: "I told you, sir, you are not a prisoner here. This time, I will ask someone to take you there. When you get there, there will be no one to guard you!"
"You and Miss Su can live here if you want, and you can leave anytime you want."
Tan Lun was surprised: "Really?"
Xu He nodded: "Really! I just hope that if you go back, sir, please remember Liang Sheng's words. Our people have suffered too much and don't let them become sacrifices to achieve our ambitions!"
Tan Lun looked at Xu He for a long time, and finally nodded: "I won't leave for the time being! If you have a chance, please move Master Xu. I want to ask for more advice!"
"Don't dare!"
…
After sending Tan Lun and Su Yaoguang away, Xu He breathed a sigh of relief.
But in the next few days, Xu He was always in panic.
The letter from his eldest brother Mao Tao has been sent to his case, and his mother and Sister Gu will arrive in Beijing in about three days.
Sister Gu will be arriving soon.
With the news that Sister Gu was about to enter Beijing, it became increasingly difficult for me to let go.
Although the matter of Princess Shang was a test for the Xu family by Emperor Zhizheng.
If he had not married the princess, then Emperor Zhizheng would have to think carefully about the Xu family's audacity and conspiracy to rob King Ji with soldiers.
The emperor didn't care if a distant relative was robbed, or how much was robbed.
Because, robbing King Ji is a warning to all the feudal kings.
This can temporarily relieve the pressure on the court.
The Xu family’s starting point is good.
However, King Ji is not an ordinary person after all. Behind him stands the dignity of the court and the face of the royal family.
If you dare to rob King Ji now, what will happen in the future?
Will you be more bold in the future?
So the emperor nodded to Xu Song with one sentence and told him that I know everything about this matter.
Maybe the emperor had no other intentions, and this matter happened to coincide with the matter of Princess Xu Heshang.
The two things now have no influence on each other in the emperor's mind.
But if Xu He rejects Princess Shang.
When the emperor became angry and embarrassed, he would put these two things together.
Therefore, Xu He's trade-off at that time was here.
But lying in bed every day, he also wanted to use this excuse and the explanations from Zhang Tengxiao, Brother Yaochen and others to comfort himself.
But he knew that if he did this, no matter how hard he had it, Sister Gu would be the only one hurt in the end.
He was originally afraid that Sister Gu would stay in Hailing and not come to the capital after learning the news.
But now that Sister Gu is here, he feels even more uneasy.
Tossing and turning all night.
Xu He didn't close his eyes for a while until dawn.
But as soon as he closed his eyes, not only the faces of Sister Gu, Feng Xiaozhu, and Lu Heng also appeared in his dream.
In the dream, Sister Gu, Xiao Zhu, and Lu Heng looked at him indifferently, as if they didn't know him at all.
He hurriedly stepped forward to hold the shoulders of the three of them and shake them, but the three of them still stared at him with cold eyes and closed their lips in silence.
"Dong dong dong!"
There was a knock on the door.
Xu He was so frightened that he woke up from his dream.
"Master!"
"What's up?"
"It's time to wash up and go to the office!"
The servant outside the door whispered.
Sure enough, Xu He faintly heard that the craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry had come to work.
Ever since Nacai asked the name, Xu He's yard has become a big construction site.
Fortunately, his yard is quite large and does not need to be expanded, just a little renovation.
The craftsmen usually go to the government to work under the leadership of officials from the Ministry of Industry after the Wugu Festival.
At this time, it was almost time to go to the Yamen.
Xu He used to wake up early every day, but today...
Watching the craftsmen carrying baskets outside the door, talking and laughing, walking around and working.
Xu He thought that he would get married to the princess in ten days.
In the dream, the eyes of Sister Gu and the others came to mind again.
"Master, do you want to ask someone to come and dress the master?" The voice of the servant outside the door became more urgent. He wanted to dress, wash, and have breakfast.
After one set, it seems that there is not enough time for going to the Yamen.
Unexpectedly, Xu He suddenly said: "Go to the Hanlin Academy alone and ask for leave for me, just say that I am unwell!"
The servant outside the door had just agreed and was about to leave, but Xu He in the room said: "Go and prepare a carriage, I will go out in a while..."
…
An hour later, Xu He appeared at Xie Kun's house.
Xie Kun got up early and was quite surprised when he saw that Xu He came to his house instead of going to the office.
"Liangsheng, why are you here? Is something wrong?"
When Xu He saw Xie Kun, he immediately knelt down and said, "Uncle, I have an unkind favor!"
Seeing how solemn he was, Xie Kun quickly picked him up and said, "What are you doing? If you have anything to do, just say no!"
Xu He said: "Can you please ask your Majesty, Princess Shang?"
Xie Kun's face, which was still smiling at first, suddenly darkened: "It's ridiculous. We've already asked for names, and we've already married. You want the emperor to cancel the marriage? Even if it's a commoner's family, if you dare to say this, you will be punished. Litigation!"
Xu He didn't know why. This request was absurd, but just in case.
Now that the "in case" is gone, Xu He stared at Xie Kun and said, "Can you please ask my uncle to let me meet Princess Qinghe!"
Xie Kun's face turned even darker: "Impossible, there is no reason for men and women to meet before marriage! Xu Liangsheng, if you make such unreasonable requests again, don't blame me for falling out!"
Xu He quickly explained: "Uncle, I just want to have a chance to talk. It doesn't matter if we meet or not, as long as I can say a few words to the princess!"
Hearing this, Xie Kun looked Xu He up and down: "Just say a few words?"
"Two words!"
"You go back first!"
Xu He was overjoyed when he saw that his uncle did not refuse clearly!
