Chapter 218 You’re welcome
"Second brother, hurry up and put up all the ladders!" Under a high courtyard wall in the General's Mansion, all thirteen children of the Xu family have arrived. The youngest Xu Mingyu, the thirteenth child of the Xu family, can now walk very fast on his calves.
He would become a follower of any brother he saw. Sometimes when the nanny wasn't paying attention, he would run away without a trace. He could not speak eloquently, but his hands and feet moved as fast as if he had been specially trained to do so.
People really can't get enough of him.
Nowadays, having fun is the favorite thing of the three youngest young masters of the Xu family. No, as soon as they heard that their elder brothers were going to climb the wall to talk to the people in the Yushi Mansion opposite, they followed them and looked up to them.
They looked up and watched Xu Mingye put the long wooden ladder on the wall, and then climbed up in two or two, and sat on the high wall with his legs in one step. When he raised his head, he was one step closer to the blue sky, which made them envious.
Incredible.
"I want to go up too!" Xu Mingxian, who is three years old this year, has eyes full of desire, but there are too many brothers, and it is not his turn. His seventh brother and eighth brother all want to go up.
But their eldest brother Xu Mingchen stopped them, saying it was unsafe.
"Oh, brother, what's wrong? I'm not a three-year-old baby. Eleventh brother and the others can't do it, but I'm nine years old and there's no problem at all!" Xu Minghao hasn't climbed a high wall for a long time.
Seeing Xu Mingye sitting astride the wall with a comfortable look on his face, he wanted to go up too.
"No, this is different from playing games in a wooden house. The wall is too high. If I accidentally fall, my mother will be sad and angry if she knows about it." Xu Mingchen rejected Xu Minghao's proposal and asked the other brothers not to do it.
Go up again.
"What are you doing? Second Young Master Xu, why are you sitting on the wall?" At this moment, a questioning voice came from the other side of the courtyard wall, and the voice was none other than Fang Da, the young master of the Fang family.
Xu Mingye sat on the wall and looked down at Fangda. He saw that he was walking as usual. Although he looked much thinner than before, he was in good spirits and looked more mature and steady than before.
"My mother said that she knows that your family doesn't want to meet with outsiders for the time being. She is worried that the stove in your house will not be lit for many days, and it will be inconvenient to eat and drink. Even if you go shopping, it will take time, so she asked someone to cook some delicious food first.
Let's get something delicious. I think we have to go around a long way to go through the door. It happens that my kitchen is close to yours, so I'll pass it to you through the wall to avoid the food getting cold!" At this time,
Xu Mingchen also climbed up the wall and explained to Fang Da on the other side.
"If you don't see other people's families, our Fang family still needs to see you, the people from the General's Palace. This time, thanks to the General and the General's wife, the lives of our entire Fang family can be saved. I have offended you in the past, and you brothers don't want to see me."
Mind, I'll apologize to you here first!" After experiencing this incident in the Fang family, Fangda also began to change, losing his impulsive youthfulness and becoming more polite and sensible than before.
Xu Mingchen also hurriedly bowed back to him, looked at Fang Da with a smile, and said: "Young Master Fang is so polite. We were all children before, and it was normal for children to fight and fight with each other. From now on, we will be friends.
There is no need to talk about so many vulgar courtesy. My brother will not come to visit you today. You must take good care of yourself for a few days after this turmoil. Just send someone to tell you what you need. These foods are specially entrusted by my mother to the cook for everyone in the Fang family.
What you have done, please quickly let someone take it to your family to eat."
"It's the general's wife's kindness and your brothers' kindness, so I won't be polite. Do you have the fried chicken I like to eat?" Fonda asked with a smile without hesitation.
"Of course there is!" Xu Mingchen had already bent down and reached out to pick up the food box in his hand. At this time, Xu Mingye also took another food box from the servant's hand.
"That's really great. It's what I've been thinking about the most during this period!" Fang Da's pretense of being a young master was instantly broken, and he extended his hand enthusiastically towards the two brothers of the Xu family.
Lin Shuran was watching Xu Mingchen not far away. Xu Mingye and the others talked to Fang Da, but they just smiled and said nothing to prevent the children from finding out. She originally wanted to make some food and deliver it to the Fang family in person, but Xu Mingchen and the others took over after hearing about it.
I got this job, but I didn't expect these children to deliver food boxes to the Fang family directly from the wall.
Although it seemed a bit inappropriate, Xu Mingchen and the others did not want to disturb the Fang family who had just returned home too much. It was the kindness of the children, and Fangda also accepted this kindness, so that was all.
In February, the weather in the capital became warmer and warmer, and people began to become more active, especially after the Ministry of Punishment investigated the case of King Ling, and there were many fewer officers and soldiers patrolling the city. Taverns, tea shops, and streets and alleys changed again.
It has to be noisy and lively.
But Lin Shuran always felt uneasy. She had clearly speculated that King Ling might be the mastermind behind the Fang family and Ren family cases, but now that all the evidence pointed to King Ling, she felt a sense of unreality.
It was less than a month from the time when King Ling was killed to the time when King Ling's embezzlement of the Mo Ren family's huge sum of money and his frame-up of the Fang family were found out. She didn't know how the Criminal Department and Xiao Chen found the key evidence, but the fact was that it was King Ling's.
The matter is closed.
As for the golden balls and huge silver that Prince Ling embezzled from the Mo Ren family, the notice of closure issued by the Ministry of Punishment said that they were all squandered by Prince Ling, and some of them were given to those Jianghu people. Prince Ling's mansion has been temporarily sealed, and the emperor has not yet
Decide how to deal with the other people in Prince Ling's Mansion.
However, Lin Shuran did not hear any rumors that the Ren family was framed. The Ministry of Punishment only said that King Ling was greedy and used tricks when confiscating the Ren family's property, but it did not say that the Ren family was wrongly accused. Xu Minghan's
Identity remains a taboo.
The night was getting darker. When Xu Junze returned to the mansion to rest, he found Lin Shuran sitting on the bed in a daze after washing. He guessed that she was still thinking about the case of Prince Ling and the Ren family, so he gently scratched her nose with his finger, hoping
Turn her attention.
"What do you think the emperor will do?" Lin Shuran grabbed his restless fingers, opened her big eyes, and looked at Xu Junze intently and asked.
Even if he didn't ask carefully, Xu Junze knew the meaning of her words, although she might not be satisfied with the answer he gave: "The emperor should give lenient treatment to other people in the palace!"
"Why?" Prince Ling had embezzled a lot of gold and silver from the Ren family, and also framed Fang Laoyushi's family. Although he is dead, isn't the prince guilty of breaking the law as much as the common people! If someone else had done this, it might have been done by someone else.
It is also a crime to confiscate a family and exterminate a clan.
"Because they are descendants of the Zhao family!" This is the reality, it is the privilege of being a member of the royal family, and it is also the decision made by Emperor Zhao You after comprehensive consideration.
