Chapter 208
After Lu Songli and the others entered the city, they divided their troops into three groups in order not to attract attention.
The people from the Yang Wei Escort Bureau and the reconnaissance team first found an inn to stay in, and then the Yang Wei Escort Bureau sent out two people - Wu Ren and Lu Wei. These two people are good at dealing with people.
Let them find a dental shop, rent or buy a house, and then buy a house. Anyway, they have to do it as soon as possible.
Along the way, their ability to do things has improved greatly. In the past, when faced with things like renting a house, buying a house, or purchasing real estate, they would slowly explore on their own in order to save some money, instead of looking for a dental clinic.
But now they feel that Mrs. Six is right, time is money, professional things must be left to professionals, and money that should be earned for others must be earned by others.
At the same time, Xu Zheng and four officers escorted the Qin family to the Xiangping Yamen for handover.
The official in charge of the handover in Xiangping was named Tang Yueguang. He was stunned for a moment when he saw the neat Qin family.
In disbelief, he picked up the list in his hand and counted the heads again.
Generally speaking, half of the exiled people are still alive. The Qin family is also very powerful. Not a single member of the family is missing, and every one of them must be fully tailed.
Moreover, except for a few minor whiplash wounds on the men's bodies, and a small number of whom could be seen as having good looks, these prisoners were in ragged clothes, but they were not sick or in pain, and were in good spirits. They rarely see prisoners in such good condition.
Tang Yueguang glanced at Xu Zheng and others in confusion. When did the superintendent and the police officer talk so easily?
But he could tell at a glance that something was wrong. Wait, why are these guards and guards so fat?
He had seen many guards and officers who escorted prisoners. Which one was not skinny and dark?
Something is wrong, something is wrong with these people. It seems that this family should have someone to help them take care of it. These guards and servants have not received less money from others. The more Tang Yueguang thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was right.
Nanhai County, Panyu County
Xie Zhan looked at the word Panyu on the county stele pavilion and remained silent for a long time. Nandi, will this be a new beginning for the Xie family?
Xiao Hua and Xiao Yasi breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that we have finally arrived. As long as the handover is completed, the hot potato of the Xie and Zhao families can be thrown away, happy! I'm so happy to be able to go back alive!
The Xie and Zhao families looked at the towering city gate, and new hope ignited in their hearts. Although they didn't know what would happen next, at least they no longer had to watch their clan members die on the road.
On the other hand, the core members of the Xie family are quite certain. The head of the family has analyzed with them before that they need to choose one of the six famous families in the South to rely on. After comparison, the owner of the family is most optimistic about the Panyu Zhu family.
This is also the reason why the head of the family worked in prison and asked the people above to exile the family to Panyu, Lingnan.
When they heard that the head of the family had a plan, their hearts were set.
"Hurry up, hurry into the city!" Xiao Hua urged them as soon as the city gate opened.
The Xie and Zhao families slowly entered the city along with the flow of people.
After entering the city, Xiao Hua sent them to Panyu Yamen for handover.
The official in charge of handover in Panyu checked the number of people and nodded with satisfaction, "No old people, no children, very good!"
Xie Zhan glanced at the man expressionlessly.
Xiao Hua trembled in his heart, brother, can't you think about this in your heart and not say it with your mouth?
People from the Xie and Zhao families were also very angry. The person in charge of the handover in Panyu spoke so irritatingly!
Especially the people of the Xie clan, who dare to be angry but dare not speak out. So many people in their clan have died, and he actually said it was fine?
The official in charge of the handover in Panyu stamped an official document before handing it over to Xiao Hua, "Okay, the handover is complete, you can leave."
Xiao Hua put the official document into his arms, said goodbye to the Panyu officials with a smile, and then quickly disappeared with the remaining officers.
The officials responsible for the handover were quite puzzled. What were they doing running so fast? But this idea only flashed through his mind. Just as he was thinking about how to arrange these prisoners, his Shangfeng Chief Cui rushed to the Yamen.
As soon as Chief Cui appeared, he scanned the Xie and Zhao families with his eyes, "Who is Xie Zhan?"
"I am Xie Zhan."
"Your honor invites me, please come with me."
"Let's go too!" Xie Nan and Xie Bai came out. They didn't know where they came from or what they wanted. The head of the family was their backbone and there was no room for loss.
Chief Cui glanced at it but did not stop him. Anyway, the noble man did not say he wanted to see Xie Zhan alone.
Two quarters of an hour later, the door of the county government's living room was opened, and Xie Zhan pushed the door open and walked out.
Just when he was about to step out of the living room, the voice of the eldest son of the Chen family could not be refused came from behind him, "I would like to ask Mr. Xie to think carefully about what I said. After you have considered it, you can tell Master Cui that we Chen The family will definitely sweep the couch to welcome you."
Xie Zhan turned around, "I have a question, how did the noble chief know about Xie?" He didn't believe that the Chen family was so well-informed.
Mr. Chen laughed loudly and said, "Xie Lang's name has long been rumored in the South..."
Only then did Xie Zhan know that before he arrived in Lingnan, he had already become famous among the upper-class families in Lingnan.
After hearing the news, Xie Zhan's heart sank. He felt that he had fallen into a conspiracy.
After leaving the sight of Mr. Chen and Mr. Cui, Xie Nan called out worriedly, "Master——"
Xie Nan knew that the head of the family’s initial choice was not the Chen family, but the Zhu family.
Xie Nan only knows one, but not the other. If among the six major families, Xie Zhan wants to cooperate the least, it must be the Chen family.
"Nothing." Xie Zhan tried hard to calm down his mood.
The plan could not keep up with the changes. Now that the situation had changed, he could only follow the trend.
He was guessing whose handiwork this game was. In fact, he already had an answer in his mind.
It couldn't be the Xie family's former political rivals in Chang'an. If it were them, they could just have stumbling blocks on the way to exile. This would pay the least price and achieve the greatest results.
Moreover, the old and the new change, the court is in chaos, and the political opponents are also protecting themselves in the storm. Furthermore, there are very few people who have been exiled and can return to the center of power. They don't think that the Xie family can do it.
After excluding the political enemies of the Xie family in Chang'an, the only enemies of the Xie and Zhao families were the Qin family and the Lu family.
In fact, this answer also confirms his speculation.
When the Xie family was in exile, the Qin family and Lu Songli were also on the road to exile, and they couldn't spare any money. They should have arrived in Xiangping by now, so they took off their hands.
Lu Songli must have guessed that he had taken action against the 100 hectares of land in Dragon City. Tying him to the Chen family was her counterattack.
As the saying goes, your opponent is often the person who knows you best.
The reason why he set his sights on Lu Songli so accurately was not only because he knew Lu Songli, but Lu Songli also knew him, so they could calculate each other's weaknesses that could be attacked.
Also, the people of the Qin family can fight, but when it comes to conspiracy and plotting against people's hearts, they can't even tie up one of his hands.
