Film and Television: In Joy of Life, he marries Fan Ruoruo!

Chapter 321 Xu Lingyue: Sister invites you to arrange flowers?

"The Way of Heaven has no beginning and no end!" Yang Qianhuan felt that he was unfathomable and full of pretentiousness.

"Teacher, the way of heaven all comes from Wu Shi, so it is obvious that the name of Wu Shi must be the only one that is supreme!"

After hearing Yang Qianhuan's words, the supervisor's calm expression did not fluctuate at all, and his voice became even colder.

"The Way of Heaven comes from the beginningless, and the beginningless is higher than the Way of Heaven. Do you think you can comprehend the Way of Heaven? Can you bear such a heavy title? If you can't bear it, you will suffer backlash!"

Yang Qianhuan looked into the distance and said confidently, "Everything depends on human effort. With my disciple's talent..."

"Let's go to Yunzhou and see the world." The supervisor decisively interrupted Yang Qianhuan.

The master and the disciple were sitting back to back, but their conversation was very smooth.

"Go secretly?"

"Yes, there are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers in Kyushu, and there are always higher mountains than other mountains. Go out and gain some experience, learn to be humble and low-key, don't say things that you shouldn't say, and don't do things that you shouldn't do."

Yang Qianhuan asked doubtfully, "Teacher, what do you mean?"

"Be low-key. If you brag everywhere, you will get beaten!"

"Okay, teacher!"

half a month later.

Inner city, Xu Pingzhi’s new home.

Now the Xu family has turned around. Li Ru and Xu Qian'an's income has skyrocketed, and they bought a house in the inner city, not far from Li Chang'an's mansion, which also makes it convenient for Xu Lingyue to go back to her parents' home.

In the afternoon, Li Ru reluctantly pulled her daughter aside and said, "Lingyue, you've only been here for one day. Lord Li is not here anyway, so you can stay for two more days."

Xu Lingyue was dressed like a young woman, with a dignified posture, and spoke in an orderly manner without any mistakes.

"Mother, it is precisely because the young master is not here that I have to take care of the household for him. There are so many people in the mansion, how can we manage without someone to keep them in check?"

After hearing this, Li Ru stopped trying to stop him. As long as Li Changan didn't marry a wife, Xu Lingyue would be the mistress.

"I just came back from the academy these two days. I haven't seen you all for a long time."

Xu Lingyue comforted him, "If Second Brother comes back, just ask him to go to the Li Mansion to find me."

"Okay... Lingyue, is Lord Li treating you well?" Li Ru asked tentatively.

"Very good..." The conversation between mother and daughter was rather obscure, but Xu Lingyue certainly knew what her mother was asking.

She didn't want to tell the truth. She couldn't tell her mother that her son often had sex several times a night.

"Then hurry up and give Lord Li a child. If you have a son, he won't dare to bully you too much when he has a wife in the future."

Half a year ago, Li Ru still fantasized about letting Xu Lingyue become the principal wife, but after rumors spread about Li Changan and the two princesses, she no longer had any thoughts about it.

What she was most worried about was that her husband could not take a concubine. If Li Changan really married the princess, her daughter's status would be difficult to maintain and she might even be sent back home.

Xu Lingyue said confidently, "Young Master said that he would take me to practice Taoism, so that I can achieve immortality in the future. There is no need to worry about having children for now."

Li Ru didn't understand all this. She just felt that Li Changan was getting close to the princess. How could he be as good as the emperor and actually study things like immortality?

Xu Lingyue said goodbye to her parents and left the Xu family's new home. Xu Pingzhi was on night duty and happened to be at home.

After her daughter left, Li Ru suddenly said to Xu Pingzhi, "Erlang has been home for a while, why is he not here anymore..."

Xu Pingzhi suddenly sat up and said, "Oh no, I haven't told him about the move yet. I'll write a letter and send it to him."

Yunlu Academy is outside the city, and Xu Xinnian doesn't go home often. It was only when his family moved to a new house that he remembered to write a letter.

Li Ru raised her eyebrows, "You are so mean, if you come back in the next two days, you won't be able to find us."

Xu Pingzhi laughed and thought to himself, if my father had forgotten, how could you, my mother, have forgotten too?

"Don't worry, Cijiu is a scholar. If you can't find anyone at the ancestral home, you can go to the Imperial Sword Guard Yamen to inquire."

When a primary school student forgets to bring his keys, he still goes to his parents’ workplace to look for them.

"And... maybe Ning Yan wrote a letter to Cijiu..." Uncle Xu muttered as he took out pen and ink.

Li Ru pinched her waist and said, "What if Ning Yan thinks the same way?"

"Okay, okay, I'll write, I'll write!" Under Li Ru's tyranny, the man begged for mercy.

Originally, neither of them was very literate, so this year Xu Lingyue hired someone to teach them, otherwise Li Ru would not have been able to manage the business smoothly.

Xu Pingzhi learned a little bit and still knows the basic commonly used characters.

"Son, we have moved to the inner city..."

Xu Lingyue was sitting in a carriage, and when she was about to arrive at Li's house, she saw a woman in gray sitting at the corner. She had an ordinary appearance and looked a little anxious.

She took a few steps towards Li's house, then seemed to regret it and turned back to the corner.

The woman stood in the corner facing the wall, muttering something to herself, then as if she had made up her mind, she walked towards Li's house again.

When he was almost there, he turned back. It seemed that he really wanted to go in, but he had some huge concerns and seemed very conflicted.

Xu Lingyue recognized that this woman was the friend who was good at flower arrangement that the young master mentioned, and she had also visited the young master once.

The guests that the young master met alone were all important friends, so Xu Lingyue stuck her head out of the window.

"Sister, are you looking for my son?"

Mu Nanzhi, whose appearance has changed, is reflecting on himself in the corner.

She had made up her mind never to look for Li Changan again, but after the first time, there was a second time, and then countless times.

Even a woman who has been well-cared for can be so unfaithful, let alone a beautiful woman like her who is just beginning to fall in love.

She really wanted to find Li Changan, but her conscience and reason told her that she couldn't go!
So, she has been struggling in this corner for a long time.

Hearing Xu Lingyue's voice, Mu Nanzhi recognized her immediately, "You, you are Li Changan's wife."

Xu Lingyue was very satisfied with this title and smiled sweetly. "I am just the young master's concubine, not worthy of the title of Madam. Sister, do you have anything to ask the young master?"

For some reason, Mu Nanzhi, the most beautiful woman in Dafeng, was actually envious of a concubine.

Being able to live with the one you love every day is much happier than being a princess with fine clothes and delicious food.

Her expression froze, and she thought of a reason that she thought was reasonable. She said in a panic, "Yes, yes, I would like to ask you to... arrange flowers."

Xu Lingyue smiled and said, "Sister wants to invite you to do flower arrangement, but you are out of the capital on business, it will probably take three to five months."

After hearing Xu Lingyue's words, Mu Nanzhi suddenly felt relieved. Since Li Changan was not in the capital, she would not have to fall into a dilemma.

"I see... Thank you, ma'am, for telling me."

Xu Lingyue said, "Don't worry, sister. When the young master comes back, I will tell him that you came to see him."

Mu Nanzhi subconsciously wanted to wave her hands, not wanting Li Changan to know that she had been there, but if she did that, wouldn't it only make things more obvious?

Besides, Xu Lingyue is Li Changan's concubine. How could she not tell Li Changan about this?

"In that case, thank you, ma'am."

After saying this, Mu Nanzhi ran away, leaving Xu Lingyue with a confused look on her face.

This sister is really strange. The young master likes calligraphy and painting, but I have never seen him arrange flowers. It is really strange. Dusk, Xu's ancestral home.

Xu Xinnian returned to the capital, preparing to take some spare clothes, rice, flour, and money.

Yunlu Academy provides accommodation but not food, so all these things need to be brought from home, so Xu Xinnian has to go home regularly.

When he reined in his horse at the gate of Xu's house, he found that the gate was locked.

Xu Xinnian's heart tightened. The last time the door was locked, his family was in jail.

Locking the door itself is a big deal. There are servants in the mansion, and even if the master is not at home and closes the door to visitors, the door will be locked from the inside. Locking the door from the outside means that no one is at home.

He came to the corner, took a deep breath, and said to himself, "I can fly over the eaves and walls!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Xinnian took a few steps back, feeling his limbs filled with strength. He ran quickly and jumped over the three-meter-high wall.

The entire Xu Mansion was silent, with no one in sight. Xu Xinnian opened the doors one by one, and found that his parents', Xu Qian'an's, and the servants' rooms were all empty.

Moreover, all the things in the house were moved away.

Xu Xinnian stood at the door, his expression dazed and bewildered. What was going on? Was there a disaster at home?

"Where is my home, such a big home... No, the home is still there, but the people are gone!"

"Where are the family members? Does anyone dare to touch the Xu family now? With Lord Li and Ning Yan here, has the night watchman's case affected them?"

"That's not right. There's no seal on the door. The house is very clean. It doesn't look like it's been robbed by the government or bandits."

Xu Xinnian was startled, and suddenly his eyes became clear, and he grasped the key to the matter, "So that's it, they moved!"

After reaching this reliable conclusion, Xu Xinnian instantly fell into depression. He slumped down on the doorstep, tears welling up in his eyes, feeling extremely aggrieved.

"Why didn't anyone tell me about the move? Have you forgotten about Erlang who was studying at Yunlu Academy?"

"How could you do this..."

Ever since Xu Lingyue married Li Changan and Xu Ningyan became a night watchman, he became the least valued one in the family. Even the little foodie was more discussed than him.

Once upon a time, Xu Xinnian was the pride of the family and the hope for the Xu family to bring honor to their ancestors!

But later everything changed. His family became richer and richer, but he became increasingly obscure and gradually became a transparent person.

"Ten years of hard study...can't defeat nepotism and power...If that's the case, I'm leaving!"

Xu Xinnian's face was filled with anger. He jumped over the high wall and landed on his horse, intending to leave the capital and return to the academy.

But at this time, the sound of bells and drums was heard in the distance, and the city gate was closed.

An hour later, at night, a cold wind blew.

There was no curfew in the outer city, so Xu Pingzhi led a team of Imperial Sword Guards to patrol the streets. When passing by the ancestral home, he found a thin figure squatting under the stone lions at the door.

The figure hugged his knees with his hands, buried his face in his arms, shivering in the cold wind. Not far away, a horse was snorting listlessly.

Xu Pingzhi's heart skipped a beat. This figure looked familiar. It couldn't be such a coincidence that his son happened to be back in the city today...

"Erlang?"

The scholar in Confucian robes slowly raised his head. He was extremely handsome, but looked haggard and had resentful eyes, as if he had just cried.

The father and son stared at each other in silence for a long time. Xu Pingzhi coughed twice and said, "Why don't you go to the inn?"

There is a curfew in the inner city, so I can’t enter the inner city now. The city gates are closed and I can’t go back to the academy, so I can only go to the inn.

"No more money."

"It's cold at night, so it's okay to spend the night in the mansion."

"If a man sleeps in his house, his horses will be stolen."

"Why don't you go back to the academy for a while?"

"The gates are closed."

Xu Pingzhi held Xu Xinnian's arm and said apologetically, "My family has moved to the inner city. I wrote you a letter, but it probably hasn't arrived yet. There is a curfew in the inner city, so your father will take you to the inn."

Xu Xinnian's eyes were filled with tears. He wrote a letter to the academy in Chengnei, and it arrived in one day. It was obvious that his parents had forgotten to write earlier.

He slowly pulled Xu Pingzhi's hand away, then turned his face to face the dim wall. His voice was hollow and empty.

"Sir, I have no family left."

"..."

In the cold wind, Xu Pingzhi was speechless, as if he heard the sound of a broken heart.

Xu Qian'an changed boats and drifted on the river towards Yunzhou.

This time, they went to Yunzhou with twenty bronze gongs, six silver gongs, one golden gong, three long-time attendants of Governor Zhang, and one hundred tiger guards, a total of one hundred and thirty-one people.

The leaders were naturally Governor Zhang and Golden Luo night watchman Jiang Luzhong, but Xu Qian'an, due to his strong background, became the third most important person in the team.

It was already night, but the three of them were still sitting opposite each other in the cabin, talking about this mission.

"Ning Yan, our hidden man is dead." Jiang Luzhong went straight to the point and handed the scroll over.

While Xu Qian'an was reading the files, Governor Zhang said, "Zhou Min had no external injuries or poisoning. It looks like a natural death."

"Dream witch." Xu Qian'an quickly thought of the Taikang County Magistrate.

Governor Zhang continued, "Zhou Min is experienced and will not keep important evidence close to him. The most urgent task is to find out the evidence he has hidden. For this, we have to rely on Lord Xu."

Xu Qian'an not only has a strong background, but is also very good at solving cases.

"I will do my best, but the commander-in-chief is the governor of a state and holds military power. If he becomes desperate, we will be the first to bear the brunt."

Jiang Luzhong said, "This is a risk we have to take. Governor Zhang and I will mediate."

Xu Qian'an needed more information, so he asked, "Governor Zhang, what else do you know about Yunzhou?"

Governor Zhang paused for a moment and said slowly, "Back then, Emperor Wuzong led his army to attack the capital, and then various states surrendered one after another, but Yunzhou resisted very fiercely. The Yunzhou garrison commander at that time was good at defending the city, and Emperor Wuzong was unable to conquer it for a while."

"The two armies faced each other and fought for several years. The people suffered terribly and many of them became bandits. After Emperor Wuzong conquered Yunzhou, he planned to recuperate first and then suppress the bandits after regaining his strength."

"However, there are many mountain ranges in Yunzhou. Once the bandits grow big, they can no longer be completely wiped out. After we wipe out one batch, another batch will spawn. Now it has become a paradise for the imperial court's criminals and the scum of the underworld. It's a deep-seated disease that is hard to cure!"

Some problems were not solved well when the country was founded, and later generations were even less able to solve them. Firstly, they lacked the ability, and secondly, they inevitably indulged in comfort, and from top to bottom, they lacked the courage to pay too much cost.

From this perspective, Yunzhou's future development will move further and further away from the Dafeng court.

After discussing some details, Xu Qian'an left the cabin and went to the deck to get some fresh air.

As far as he could see, an official ship was coming towards him. There were faint shadows moving on the deck, as if they were dodging in a hurry after seeing the night watchman.

This is a normal phenomenon. There is no official who is not afraid of the Commission for Discipline Inspection.

Xu Qian'an tore off a page of the Qi-gazing technique, and then his eyes were filled with blood.

On the official ship, there was a large area of ​​bright red, sticky blood.
