Chapter 204 Chapter 204: Make a friend

"Hahaha..." Mr. Pei laughed deliberately, and at the same time looked at Xu Minghan with a puzzled face and said, "I really don't understand what Young Master Xu is saying!"

Xu Minghan looked at him with certainty and said: "Only the Liu family of Xishu can do this. The Liu family of Xishu can do it for many years. I knew your true identity the first year you arrived in the capital. Do you still remember it?"

The kid in Liu’s shop five years ago?”

Mr. Pei put away the smile on his face. He tried to recall that when he first came to the capital five years ago, he indeed went to the Liu family's shop in Beijing first. It was also such a cold winter at that time, and there were few pedestrians on the street.

There was only a five or six-year-old child taking a nap in the shop. He didn't pay much attention at the time. The shopkeeper blurted out and called him "Young Master", and then the group entered the back hall.

"Aren't you the kid taking a nap in Liu's shop?" Mr. Pei began to look up and down at Xu Minghan. He really couldn't remember what the kid looked like at that time. He only remembered that the shopkeeper said he was a lost kid. For the time being,

Kindly take him in. It turns out that today is not the first time the two of them have met.

Xu Minghan nodded confidently. He had been fond of Hongshang Yili since he was a child, but the great changes in the Ren family also made him vaguely aware that outsiders should not guess his identity, so he usually deliberately wandered around the capital and caused trouble. However,

The purpose is to study the shops and merchants in the capital, and it should be to satisfy my "hobby".

Originally, he didn't want to drive Mr. Pei away, but after seeing Mr. Pei's true face, it overlapped with the face he had seen in Liu's shop five years ago, because Mr. Pei's face

It hasn't changed at all. He once heard someone say that the Liu family of Xishu once obtained a cursed secret medicine from overseas. After taking this secret medicine, it had the miraculous effect of rejuvenating one's appearance, but none of the children in the family lived to be forty years old.

.

He still remembered that the shopkeeper of Liu's Shop called Mr. Pei the "young master", so he determined his true identity. After Mr. Pei's accident this time, he first deliberately gave the animals to Xu Mingxuan, and then approached Lin Shuran after he was released from prison.

But he didn't go to Liu's shop, so Xu Minghan felt that he had bad intentions and had other agendas.

In Xu Minghan's eyes, his family members are all simple and kind-hearted people, and the General's Palace has a special status. He is still young and can only do limited things, so he usually tries to behave like a normal child, but in fact he is more

Other children mature prematurely. He was once too young to be able to protect his loved ones. This time he wants to protect his current family from now on.

The vigilance in Xu Minghan's eyes was unabashedly revealed. Mr. Pei could tell that he was afraid that he would hurt his family. This young man was truly courageous and formidable.

After Master Pei understood Xu Minghan's concern, he simply returned to the chair lazily and sat down. He looked at Xu Minghan with a smile and said, "Since Young Master Xu has guessed my identity, there is no need for me to hide it."

Hidden, yes, I am the young head of the Liu family in Xishu, but you don’t have to worry, I have no intentions towards your general’s mansion, I just want to make friends. Your eighth brother is a very special child.

I like it very much. It’s rare to find someone who has the same interests as me. Let’s do this. If you promise to help me keep my identity secret, I will tell you what I just said to Mr. Xiao. How about we also make friends?”

Xu Minghan just remained silent and did not answer, as if he was weighing whether what Mr. Pei said was true or false. When Pei saw that he was still hesitant, he continued: "Don't worry, I will leave the capital after this year, and I am afraid I will come to the capital in the future.

There are not many opportunities, and there are many friends and many paths, why does Young Master Xu think that our Xishu Liu family is not worthy of being your friends?!"

"Of course not!" Xu Minghan has also heard of the name of the Liu family of Xishu. It was one of the largest families in the Jin Dynasty. It is rumored that the Liu family of Xishu is a leader in the world and business circles.

"Is everything you said true?"

After all, he was still a child, and this question showed Xu Minghan's immaturity. Mr. Pei did not laugh at him this time, and nodded seriously. At the same time, he took out a small bronze sign and handed it to Xu Minghan and said: "Of course it's true, I mean it sincerely."

If I want to make friends with you brothers, if anything happens to me when I go out in the future, I just need to go to the Liu family’s shop and take this token and I will get help!”

Xu Minghan looked at the Liu family token handed to him and hesitated for a moment before reaching out and taking it. Just like what Mr. Pei said, many friends lead to many paths.

"Okay, I promise you, I won't reveal your identity to anyone. Then tell me what you just said to Mr. Xiao from the Criminal Department!" Xu Minghan put the token into his arms and accepted Mr. Pei's proposal.

Mr. Pei looked at him intently and asked, "Why are you so interested in this? Does the case of the Criminal Department have something to do with you?" Seeing that Xu Minghan didn't speak, he didn't pay much attention and didn't intend to.

After teasing him again, Mr. Pei continued, "Actually, it's nothing. When he investigated the Black Tiger case last time, he found a small golden ball in my place and asked me where I got it. I told him it was Ling

Prince Wang gave it to me in a business deal before, and then he left."

"Is it really Prince Ling who gave it to you?" In fact, Xu Minghan already had a guess in his mind. It seemed that the golden ball lost by the Ren family was really related to Prince Ling's palace.

"Yes, he gave it to me, but is there anything special about this golden ball? Why do you all seem to be interested in it!" Mr. Pei found it strange. Xiao Chen could understand that he cared about it. After all, he was investigating the case.

Official, why does Xu Minghan care so much?

"Nothing! I'm leaving!" After getting the answer he wanted, Xu Minghan said goodbye to Mr. Pei. What he now wants to know more is whether the person behind the Ren family's disaster was King Ling.

Lin Shuran found that Xu Minghan had been a little depressed in the past two days. The other children in the family were very excited because the New Year was coming. The General's Mansion also bought a lot of firecrackers this year. They were all waiting to set off firecrackers during the New Year's Eve vigil.

Lin Shuran also knew that Xu Minghan went to the farm in the south of the city to meet Mr. Pei, but she didn't know what the two talked about, but Xu Minghan didn't seem to be in a high mood after that day.

She feels that every child will encounter various problems in the process of growing up. Some require unconditional intervention from adults, and sometimes premature intervention by adults is not good for their growth. She must give the children what they deserve.

Thinking and independent space will become their support when the time is right.

However, Lin Shuran still specially arranged for Han Ying to keep an eye on Xu Minghan in the dark, and tell her in time if he behaved in any special way.

On the day when New Year's Eve arrived, Lin Shuran thought that Xu Junze, who was in Yunzhou, would not be able to return to the capital in time, but she did not expect that he would appear in front of her in a dusty state.
