Southland

The Chen family received news from Chang'an that the letter had been delivered to the emperor and that the imperial envoy and his party had left Chang'an.

Several core members of the Chen family who knew about this were very excited, thinking that the Chen family was about to make a contribution.

They felt that once this matter was over, the emperor would definitely reward their Chen family.

Little did they know that the Chen family’s credit had been completely stolen by Xie Zhan.

Xie Zhan, who was at home at this time, also received the secret message.

Because of the rain, he has been visiting Chen Mansion every other day recently.

But when the Chen family received the news, they did not send anyone to inform him.

Thinking of this, Xie Zhan smiled slightly, but that smile was a bit cold.

He closed his eyes and silently reviewed his entire plan in his mind. When he found that there were no omissions, he opened his eyes and slowly exhaled.

He knows that he can start the next step, which is another key point of the overall situation. All the preparations are ready.

That night, he stayed in the study and did not return to his room.

That night, Chen Jin, who was hanging out outside, occasionally caught a glimpse and saw an acquaintance. Seeing the person's fleeting profile and familiar figure, he was so excited that he immediately left his friends behind and followed him.

After confirming his guess, he immediately went home and knocked on the door of his father's study.

The next day, the rain was still pouring down.

In the study room of Chen Mansion, Chen Jiaye and Chen Jiayu were discussing things.

Chen Jiaye asked with concern, "Are you sure it's Xue Guangxian?"

Chen Jiayu nodded, "I sent someone to check it out, it should be him. He lives in a simple residence at the foot of Puxian Temple where pilgrims can rest."

Chen Jiaye murmured, "This is the place he would choose. He should be back."

Only recently did they learn that it was Ji Wuyin who helped Xue Guangxian in secret that allowed him to successfully escape from the Southland three years ago.

And he recently received rumors that Ji Wuyin had taken a long trip a few days ago, and the place he went to was Liaodong County.

Therefore, Chen Jiaye guessed that Xue Guangxian was probably back, and he probably wanted to go back to the gathering place of the Luo people to have a look.

"Brother, what should we do next?"

"Go meet him!"

"good."

Chen Jiaye looked at Chen Jiayu and said meaningfully, "Bring more people with you. Three years ago, he caused huge losses to the Chen family. We must make sure that he cannot escape this time."

"good!"

The two brothers looked at each other with intriguing eyes.

So the Chen family began to mobilize a large number of manpower, and the eldest son Chen Yu was responsible for this matter.

Chen Jin had been paying attention to the movements in the main courtyard. When he saw his father mobilizing manpower, he quickly ran over to express that he would follow him out!

Chen Jiaye agreed without much thought. Young people should exercise more and beat more. Besides, he and his second uncle were still watching.

Mrs. Chen on the side was very worried, "It's been raining today, can't we go out another day?" Mrs. Chen was particularly panicked today, and she didn't want her husband to go out.

"No." After saying that, Chen Jiaye left.

It has been three years since Xue Guangxian appeared in Nandi for the first time. He is probably taking a road back to the gathering place of the Li tribe. He will not stay in Nandi for too long. His whereabouts have been reported this time. If he is not caught, the chance next time will be slim.

.

Mrs. Chen looked at the servants holding an umbrella for him. They quickly came to the carriage and boarded it.

Not long after, a group of more than ten carriages began to drive forward, gradually disappearing in the rain.

The rain is still falling and shows no sign of getting lighter.

The movement of Chen Mansion's manpower was very loud internally, but on rainy days, their movement was covered up, making it unknown to outsiders.

Xie Zhan was the only one who silently paid attention to what was happening in Chen's house. As soon as they went out, it didn't take long for Xie Zhan to receive the news.

Xie Zhan was not surprised at all that Chen Jiaye and Chen Jiayu were fooled.

First of all, the grievances between the Chen family and Xue Guangxian are deeply involved; secondly, the Chen family is too greedy.

The Chen family is actually very secretive about Xue Guangxian, and a lot of information related to it is sealed.

He checked the past information and found out that Xue Guangxian had torn Xiaozhuya Island back for the Chen family. At that time, Chen Jiaye was actually interested in another fertile land, and it was Xue Guangxian who strongly urged him to choose Xiaozhuya Island.

Now that a gold mine has been discovered on Xiaozhuya Island, Chen Jiaye and others will inevitably wonder whether Xue Guangxian has long seen that there is a gold mine on Xiaozhuya Island, so he insisted on taking this small island. Did he?

Is there any special way to discover gold mines?

Even if they don't think much about it, he will lead them in this direction.

Xie Zhan believed that as long as they discovered that Xue Guangxian had returned to the Southland, it would be difficult for Chen Jiaye and others not to be tempted by old and new grudges, as well as the huge interests involved.

At this time, a servant came to report, "Patriarch, the young lady sent someone to ask, are you ready?"

The look on Xie Zhan's face was a little cold, "I'll be there right away."

Chen Baozhu was very happy to see Xie Zhan. She held out her pregnant belly and asked with a smile on her face, "Can we go out?"

Xie Zhan advised her, "It's raining today. Can we go to Puxian Temple another day?"

"No!" After Chen Baozhu finished speaking, he realized that his tone was too strong, so he said softly, "Didn't we agree to go to Puxian Temple today? Today is a good day, and I am going to fulfill my wish. How can I

Rescheduled?”

What's more, it's just a little rain. Even if there is a knife from the sky, she will go!

"You are pregnant and may slip easily on rainy days."

Chen Baozhu is a stubborn person. When she becomes stubborn, the more others don't let her do something, the more she will do it.

Chen Baozhu shook his head stubbornly, "I just want to go today."

At the same time, perhaps because of her pregnancy, she was particularly emotionally sensitive. When Zhao Yutan was pregnant before, her husband even accompanied her to offer incense and pray for peace. Now it was her turn to accompany her to Puxian Temple, but he refused.

She felt aggrieved in her heart, "Husband, let's go today? It shouldn't rain all the time. Maybe it will stop after we arrive?"

Xie Zhan looked helpless, "You can go if you want."

Lu family

In the rain, the servants of the Lu family prepared the carriage according to the instructions of the eldest lady Lu Fei, and the boys responsible for guarding the concierge quickly removed the side door sill and then pushed the side door open.

There were servants standing outside the gate in the rain to intercept passing pedestrians and carriages. From this posture, it was obvious that someone from the Lu family was going out.

At this time, Lu Xihua happened to be coming back from outside, and his accompanying boy was about to call people aside so that they could go in with the carriage.

But he was stopped by Lu Xihua, "The carriage pulls over, let's wait!"

Except for those few people, there was no one else at home. He was curious, who would go out at this time?

"Young Master, this is the carriage that the eldest lady uses privately." The eldest lady did not use her large carriage with the family emblem engraved on it.

Lu Xihua snorted, "This bitch!" Then he looked at the carriage that was driving gradually into the distance, and narrowed his eyes slightly. Lu Fei still went out on a rainy day? Wasn't he going to have a private meeting with his lover?

"Follow up!"

"Okay!"

Recently, Lu Xihua hated Lu Fei, his eldest sister. If he had just ignored Lu Fei, his eldest sister born from his aunt's mother, then what this eldest sister did recently was really offensive.

He did.

Recently, she has been giving him eye drops in front of her father and often picking on his faults, causing him to be blamed and scolded by his father recently.

Sometimes he could even feel his father's disappointment in him. After all, it was all caused by Lu Fei, a bitch!

"Are you following?" Lu Fei asked.

"The eldest son is following."

The sky was clear and clear here in Liaodong County. Qin Sheng said goodbye to his family and his wife, took a small baggage on his shoulders and a small tips bag in his arms, and went on a long journey.

Xue Xu: "Prepare the carriage."

Qin Sheng glanced at him, "What kind of carriage are you preparing? Take the waterway!" He thought to himself, if you are going to the south with you, who would take a leisurely carriage there?!

"I don't go by water."

Qin Sheng despises him and is afraid of dying like this, that's enough.

"Don't worry, even if you are in danger, I won't let you hang your hair."

Xue Xu looked at him suspiciously. Although he has always been lucky, if a landlubber falls into the water, there should be only one end, right? His good luck can only make his death look good?

At this time, they happened to pass by a lake with extremely deep water.

"Wait."

Qin Sheng looked around and found that there were not many people around him early in the morning. Without saying a word, he took off his clothes, jumped up, and plunged directly into the water.

Xue Xu:......

Not long after, Qin Sheng emerged from the bottom of the water, holding a turtle in his hand!

Xue Xu:!!!

"When did you learn to swim? Wasn't this guy a landlubber before?" Jealousy, he also learned to swim, but unfortunately he couldn't.

Qin Sheng said proudly, "What's so difficult about this?" He learned this swimming while fighting bandits in Fang County and An City.

Xue Xu looked at the turtle that had shrunk into a ball in his hand. He even caught the turtle. How deep did he dive?

"Okay, I'll listen to you this time and take the water route!"
