Chapter 315 Hypocritical Temperament
The moonlight in the cold night reflected on the jade-snow-covered glazed tiles of the Xiao Mansion, illuminating the entire mansion in silver.

In the silver plating all over the place, a man in black was let by the guards at the door, knocked on the door and was ordered to enter the brightly lit study.

In the study room, on the incense table, there is a jade incense burner with phoenix ear rings and life pattern, in which white sandalwood is burning, and the smoke curls up.

Sitting on the couch by the window, one person is facing the chessboard in the middle of the couch, pinching a sunspot with slender, white fingers, closing his eyes and lost in thought.

"Master Xiao, the head of the Xie family and his fiancée stayed at the Li family's mansion temporarily today. Our people visited the pier and the inns along the way. The reason is that the fiancée was seasick and couldn't go on the other side of the waterway. The other side is no different. "The man in black said.

Master Xiao opened a pair of phoenix eyes.

The window was opened with a gap, and the cold wind from outside was blowing in, brushing against his fair cheeks and ears, and the room was silent.

"Patriarch Xie? Xie Liulang?" After a while, Master Xiao spoke with a slightly soft tone.

"Exactly."

"Why did you come to Xuzhou?"

"Inspect the family business."

"Do you know the route?"

"unknown."

The room fell into silence again.

In the silence, cold sweat slowly broke out on the guard's back. He wanted to explain that he didn't find out because of time constraints and the opponent's strict defense, but in this suffocating atmosphere, he chose not to speak again.After all, in front of this master, there will always be more words and more mistakes.

"Go back and tell Li San, hide the matter of Gushan from me, don't let anyone find out what shouldn't be revealed." Xiao Chuan raised his eyes to look at him, paused, and said again: "It's the same with you, your whereabouts are all hidden. alright."

The man in black felt relieved, and responded decisively: "Yes!"

In the middle of the night in January, insects hide and birds rest.

At Yin Shizheng, Xie Zhan returned to the wing room on time, sat at the table, and kept flipping through the confidential volumes.Here is the entire Xuzhou officialdom structure, from the governor to the county magistrate, and the names and families backed by them can be seen at a glance.

Since this trip is to investigate the involvement of those people in Xuzhou, it is necessary to deal with local officials in Xuzhou.

The reason why he chose to come after the year is because it took time for the spies sent years ago to "spread the net". Up to now, among the major families in Xuzhou, there are finally people from him who have really hidden in it, and After figuring out the twists and turns behind this Xuzhou official, no matter how generously he came out of Jiankang City, he would deliberately "strike the grass to scare the snake".

Presumably, as the special status of Dali Temple Minister, if he made a move, someone in Xuzhou would follow him.

Holding a note, Shi Qing hurried into the room, walked half a step in front of the table, and bowed to present it.

"My lord, there's been some movement on the other end of the letter from Xiao's hidden pile today."

Xie Zhan read the last two pages of the Chinese volume in his hand before closing it, took the paper from Shi Qing, scanned it very quickly, and then sneered.

Didn't someone move it?

Rao had guessed that Li Junshou had something to do with others, but he didn't expect that there was another Xiao family involved here.

And today, just because Fuxuan was unwell, the group of them came to Li's house by chance to stay overnight, which aroused the nerves of Li and Xiao's families. They are involved in every possible way, and Gushan between the two counties must be really not simple.

Ah.

Xie Zhan laughed again.

The last time I was in Geyang County, because Fuxuan saw that the two strong men were not from Daliang, they followed them and found out the trilogy of Wushan; It can't break the Liang family's secret.

But this time, again because of her, another incident was suddenly discovered.

Fuxuan is indeed his "lucky star", and every time he takes her out, there are unexpected harvests.

After thinking for a moment with his lips curled up, Xie Zhan knocked on the confidential documents handed over by the hidden piles with a folding fan, and ordered Shi Qing to say in a deep voice, "Burn them all."

Shi Qing hesitated for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, the young master had never forgotten these things, so he knew that there was no need to keep these things, otherwise, these achievements that took countless Xie family's secret efforts would fall into the hands of people in the dark , Isn't it self-defeating their intentions for this trip?

For Xie Zhan, Fu Xuan is a "lucky star"; but for Fu Xuan, Xie Zhan is probably a "disastrous star".

It is cold in winter, and Guangliang County is located on the side of the mountain, so the night is colder than that on the plain.Xie Zhan carried her to the clean room last night, and under his repeated temptations, the two of them played around for half the night.

With a small body, Fuxuan suffered from tossing and turning from hot to cold, coupled with the long and hard journey, it was inevitable that she would catch a cold the next day.

In the dining room, seeing Fuxuan's face flushed, Fuxuan stretched out his hand to touch her forehead, and said in shock, "You were fine yesterday, why did you suddenly have a high fever today?"

Under the dining table, Fuxuan unceremoniously stepped on the back of Xie Zhan's shoe with one small foot, turned left and right to grind it hard, and replied to Fuxuan, "Perhaps he kicked the quilt again at night and was frozen. It doesn't matter, Li Junshou sent a doctor here, and the medicine has been decocted, and I will drink it later."

When mentioning the night, Fuxuan's mind flashed the memory of the gentleman across from him who came and went last night, and immediately a scornful laugh overflowed from his throat, and then pointedly said: "Close the doors and windows more tightly tonight. .”

Fuxuan was stirring the porridge in the bowl, but she understood the meaning of Fuxuan's words, she made a guilty "hmm" sound of being a thief, and secretly looked at Xie Zhan who was really "a thief".

But seeing that Lang Jun was calm and relaxed, without any embarrassment, he slightly raised his eyebrows and said slowly: "Since you are unwell, we will wait for you to recover before we start our journey."

Afraid of delaying their business, Fu Xuan immediately refused: "That's not the case. I don't have any other symptoms except my body is hot. I can stick to it. Let's go directly to Guangling County as planned. Besides, the place There is also a doctor, I just take this medicine."

Fuxuan was uncharacteristically contrary to Fuxuan's thinking, agreeing with Xie Zhan and saying: "No, just stay here and rest until you recover from illness!" It was a reasonable excuse.

Fuxuan was stunned for a moment, seeing the two gentlemen on the left and the right insisting on the same plan at the same time, she had a faint feeling that her disease was being used.

Before she could figure out the reason, Xie Zhan asked, "Is there any other discomfort?"

Fu Xuan paused, then put down the spoon stirring the porridge with a "ding", and said aggrievedly: "I feel uncomfortable all over, even my wrists are a little soft."

Fuxuan's pretentious temper when she was sick again, glanced at her with bright eyes, and scolded: "How old are you? Could it be possible to ask someone to feed you?"

Fu Xuan glared at him, looked away, and snorted coldly.

Seeing her lose her temper, Fuxuan was about to speak to "educate" her, when she saw the person opposite picked up Fuxuan's porridge bowl, scooped up a spoonful of porridge, and put it to her lips, "Open your mouth."
