Chapter sixty-eight
When Xu Jie said this, his eyes were filled with fear and looked at Lu Guang in panic and said, "You said, if I retreated more than 400,000 acres of land, how should the world discuss me, and how will future generations laugh at me? Do you want me to commit suicide by shame and anger and leave it intoxicating for thousands of years?"
Lu Guang was stunned when he heard this. For an old man in his twilight years, this reason was indeed sufficient.
"What should we do?" He stopped persuading Xu Jie and instead acted as a result.
"I think about it, I think about it..." Master Xu stood up with the help of Lu Guang and walked to the row of clothes hangers in the inner room.
There was a set of costumes hanging on each hanger, including Diao Chan, Xi Shi, and Du Shiniang... The old man was short and fair since childhood, and had a handsome face... Unfortunately, he was delayed by being an official.
Whenever he is with these beloved women's clothing, Mr. Xu feels extremely calm and even his thinking is much quicker.
After a while, he said to Lu Guang in a deep voice: "For the sake of the present, I can only ask for help from the capital. There should be more than one million taels of deposit in Xu Wu. I will write a book now. You can take it to the capital and let him cooperate with your activities."
"Yes." This is Lu Guang's old business, but he still feels too big. "But Lin Run's incident had a bad impact in the past, and it may be difficult for lobbying to work."
"Yes, it's a lot of difficulties to make Hai Rui move his nest now." Xu Jie nodded in approval and said, "So this time we should focus on showing weakness."
"Bitty plan?" Lu Guang suddenly realized.
"So that's it..." Xu Jie said, laughing at himself: "There is no need to act deliberately, Hai Rui's board will fall down soon!"
When Lu Guang heard this, he couldn't help but say with gratitude: "At this time, the villain should stay with his master, right?"
"Don't worry, my Xu family is a big business, and Hai Rui can't just deal with Lin Run's affairs. I can only break the pieces and eat them a little bit. I can hold on for a long time." Xu Jie waved his hand and ordered in a deep voice:
"Anyway, after you enter Beijing, you must go through all the ways you can with Xu Wuba, especially make more friends with eunuchs. Those eunuchs are jealous of money, so it is best to buy them."
"The villain knows." Lu Guang nodded. This is all familiar with things.
"After making friends with these people, you tried your best to buy them all. While you continued to give me feedback on my husband's miserable situation in Jiangnan, you should simmer it slowly first." Xu Jie vomited out the turbid air and said, "When the heat is almost done, I will teach you what to do next."
"Yes." Lu Guang said with tears in his eyes: "The master is going to suffer during this period..."
"Aren't people born suffering?" Xu Jie smiled bitterly and said, "When I just turned one year old, I was thrown into the well by my servants at home. Fortunately, it was a dry well... But when my family found out, I no longer breathed. My parents couldn't give up and did not bury me immediately. As a result, three days later, I came back to life again. At the age of five, I followed my father to pass by Kuocang Mountain and was pushed down from the mountain by my servants, and my clothes were hung on the trees to survive."
"What a blessing in disgrace!" Lu Guang looked glad, but he couldn't help but mutter in his heart. How unethical is this Mr. Xu's parents have to be so immoral that they can provoke the servants of the Xu family and keep attacking a child?
However, Mr. Xu obviously hadn't considered it from this perspective. He always believed that this was the manifestation of his "living a great disaster, he would have good fortune in the future."
"I passed the exam at the age of 21, but died immediately. Fuque returned to the Hanlin Academy, but offended Zhang Gong and was demoted to Yanping Mansion, which was deposed to the poor mountains and rivers, as a delegate official... Speaking of which, Hai Rui also served as a teacher there, but I was twenty years earlier than him."
"Later, I was promoted step by step in the local area. I was finally promoted to the court by my mentor Xia Guixi, but my mentor was harmed by Yan Binyi. I was suppressed for more than ten years. In order to protect myself and realize my ambitions, I compromised and suffered humiliation. I finally survived until Yan Song fell, and the state was in ruins, and the border was alerted. When I saw the late emperor away, I met the enemy Gao Suqing, and even the new king was displeased, and retired in disgrace... Alas, I haven't lived a good day."
The Xu family took out a pink ropa, wiped the corner of their eyes and said, "I'm thinking about resigning. I can finally live the life I thought about for a few years, and I'm going to have this thing again. I've seen it clearly. I'm like the beauties in those dramas, I'll be suffering in this life."
Lu Guang couldn't help but feel chills, and his master's girlish heart became more and more prosperous. He hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Do you ask the two masters to temporarily leave Jiangnan and go to the distance to avoid the limelight?"
"Well." Xu Jie also knew that Hai Rui was going to take action, and Xu Fan and Xu Ying must be the primary target. But he still didn't believe that Hai Rui could capture them from his own home.
"I have already sentenced two evildoers to stay away from home. No matter how crazy Hai Rui is, he will not be able to confiscate my house, right?"
"It shouldn't be." Lu Guang thought about it, but he still reminded: "But always prepare a way out for the two masters just in case."
"Yes." Xu Jie nodded and said, "Looking back, the wind has passed. I arranged for them to live in Zhejiang or further south for a few years."
"Master should take care of himself," Lu Guang said with tears.
"Okay, take care of yourself." Xu Jie nodded, and came out of the study with Lu Guang, first wrote a letter to Xu Wu to explain the whole story. He also compiled books to the big bosses in the capital and the captain Wangwang. His words were humble and desolate, which made those who heard it cry, and those who saw it were sad.
After Lu Guang put away a thick stack of envelopes and said goodbye to him, Mr. Xu rubbed his swollen eyes and continued to lie in front of the desk, writing a reply to Hai Rui with difficulty.
~~
Governor Shipyard, Hai Rui soon received a reply from Xu Jie.
It was still the same old habit, so after reading it, he handed it to Niu Qianshi.
I saw that the letter said that the Zhongcheng's order should be followed, but the place where he was placed within five years is still well documented and it is not difficult to clear it. But I really don't know about those that were longer than before. Moreover, the documents have been lost, and I don't know who to give them to, so I can only ask the government to investigate it myself. If there is evidence and law to follow, I should clear it.
Seeing the words and lines were filled with resentment, Niu Qianshi couldn't help but admire him and thought to himself that it seemed that Hai Gong was even more powerful, and he could actually make Mr. Xu's turtle magic skill break.
But the situation now seems to be worse. The rabbit is anxious and kicks the eagle, not to mention that Mr. Xu is much more powerful than the rabbit.
The rabbit is almost the same...
Niu Qianshi returned the letter and sighed, "It seems that Master Xu refused."
Hai Rui was also full of disappointment. He couldn't figure it out. With Master Xu's wisdom, can't you tell that he was helping him?
Why do you have to sacrifice your life and money? Besides, you didn’t force him to the dead?
It can only be said that it is a wise man who is hopeless...
He had already done his best and had nothing to worry about. He ordered in a deep voice:
"Arranging now, the party will be opened tomorrow morning!"
