Celebrating more than two years of peace in the world

Chapter 227 I Am His Majesty's Man
When the moonlight in the south of the Yangtze River quietly fell, Fan Xian looked calmly at the surface of the river in front of him. The appearance of the river before it merged into the East China Sea was very beautiful. The crystal moonlight splashed on the surface of the lake, and the shining light painted ripples, illuminating Looking at the tranquility of the night in front of him, Fan Xian was holding a swaying wine glass. While standing here, Haitang Duoduo and Ming Zhuxiang looked at each other.

Fan Xian couldn't help feeling a little flustered, this is so similar to the previous Qu Han, maybe Ming Zhuxiang will regard himself as the next Qu Han, but Fan Xian will not do this, he will not let anyone replace Qu Han The position in my heart is very special and very strange. It seems that it is really impossible for another person to replace her important position.

Sang Wen walked over slowly, and she also held up her wine glass. After shaking her delicate legs under the long black dress, she turned to look at Fan Xian, smiled and said, "I have no intention of getting into this battle."

"I'm also a bystander." Fan Xian looked at the two women in front of him, just smiled, and waved at Sang Wen, "What's wrong?"

Sang Wen walked up to Fan Xian, curled his lips, threw off his clothes, sat beside Fan Xian, touched Fan Xian with a glass of wine, drank it himself, and said, "Sister Qu Han Let's go, I didn't mean to mention your sadness, it's just a little accident, the importance of her to you, it seems that I think it's easy."

Fan Xian just smiled.

"The inner treasury has been successfully taken over. Obviously, the pressure on the capital side is also much less. What you need to do now, my lord, is to stabilize the situation in Jiangnan. Shi Chanli is in charge of the inner treasury on Jiangnan Road. And the big boss heard that he has already set off from Northern Qi and wants to come back here, so can we discuss changes to the things we agreed on before?" Sangwen Huaier smiled, "You need someone to settle accounts by your side."

"Qu Han is at least the strength of the fourth rank." Fan Xian said.

"When facing Yun Zhilan, there is not much difference between fourth rank and no rank." Sang Wen said, "And the person who wants to kill you may not have much difference between fourth rank and no rank."

Fan Xian nodded, he could not deny that what Sang Wen said was right.

"So, if you think about it, my ability to settle accounts is not much worse than Qu Han's." Sang Wen said.

Fan Xian stood up, and he glanced at the two women standing by the window. Their eyes seemed to be full of disdain for Sang Wen.Fan Xian sighed, "Actually, I wanted to do this, but now that I think about it, there are too many dangers around me. Even Ming Zhuxiang and Haitang, I can't guarantee that they will be intact. If I stay by my side, all the difficulties I have encountered can be judged to be too many variables and uncontrollable dangers. If I take you with me, I may bring a person who may die at any time by my side , as you know, I can no longer accept and face such a thing.”

"But..." Sang Wen was about to say something, but was interrupted by Fan Xian.

"There's nothing wrong with it." Fan Xian smiled, "Some people are destined to be like this, they can't have everything, and they can't achieve everything, I understand your thoughts, and you also want to help me and comfort me. "

Sang Wen shook his head helplessly, "I'd better have a drink."

"Let's sing the song." Fan Xian said with a smile.

Sang Wen sang a song that Fan Xian had never heard before. It was very pleasant and pleasant, but Fan Xian still couldn't stop feeling sad.

Because it was already late at night, but no one came to put a coat on him.

But when he thought of this, a coat was actually approved on him.

Fan Xian was taken aback for a moment, and when he looked back, that familiar figure appeared in his eyes. Fan Xian beamed with joy, "Roruo..."

It was Fan Xian's younger sister, Fan Ruoruo.

"Brother, it's cold, be careful." Fan Ruoruo climbed onto Fan Xian's body, broke Fan Xian's neck with his hands, and gently hugged Fan Xian in his arms.

"Brother, you must be suffering, right?" Fan Ruoruo asked.

Fan Xian gently touched Fan Ruoruo's arm, "Brother is fine."

"From Danzhou to now, I think everything has changed a lot." Fan Ruoruo said, "Brother, you are really amazing. If these things happen to Ruoruo, let alone one thing happen, I can't even resist, and I might cry and look for you."

"You used that thing, how do you feel?" Fan Xian asked.

"It feels so powerful!" Fan Ruoruo looked at Fan Xian, "You don't even know that it's so powerful, but it's a pity that it still can't break through Sigu Sword's defense."

"Normal. After all, he had already anticipated and resisted it before." Fan Xian said.

"If it's by surprise, I think it's not a problem to kill the grand master." Fan Ruoruo said confidently, "Uncle Wu Zhu also said that it's not a problem to kill the grand master while he's unprepared from a long distance. Even taking precautions can seriously injure the opponent."

"I didn't expect our Ruoruo to be so powerful." Fan Xian laughed.

"Naturally, it doesn't matter who my brother is or who my master is." Fan Ruoruo said arrogantly, "Anyone who wants to have sex with me now is not even a great master, and he has no pomp!"

Fan Xian was amused by Fan Ruoruo.

"Brother, to be honest, when are you going back to the capital city?" Fan Ruoruo asked, "When I left, grandma was already talking about why you didn't go home yet."

Fan Xian calmly looked at the river scene outside, and murmured, "When Sizhe arrives, let's set off."

"Okay." Fan Ruoruo said.

There is still more than half a month to live. Fan Sizhe came to Jiangnan Road from Northern Qi. Even if it is soon, it will take more than half a month. So Fan Xian knows that this matter will not pass so quickly, even if everything will pass quickly, but he faced it. Regarding the matter of those two people, it will not simply turn over the story.He knew Xue Qing's identity. It was a good thing for Xue Qing, for himself, and even for Yan Bingyun, who Xue Qing had saved, but not later. It means that Xue Qing's identity has been exposed. Although the area of ​​exposure is not large, it can be regarded as a revelation of identity. In fact, Xue Qing has already prepared and packed up the matter of retiring from his old age and returning to his hometown. But today, Fan Xian Yan Bingyun and Yan Bingyun, who had recovered from his injuries, stood at the gate outside the Governor's Mansion. There was another person beside them, who was the little eunuch who came out of the palace. The eunuch was not very tall, but he looked very delicate and pretty.

Fan Xian tapped the door knocker three times.

Xue Qing was sitting in the hall, and there was no strange expression on his face. He knew that Fan Xian and the others were here, and he also knew what Fan Xian and the others were here for, but he didn't move, but remained calm. Looking at the door in front of him, and waiting for the door to be pushed open, he still had a calm expression on his face, and said to Fan Xian, "Master Fan, don't come here to be safe."

Fan Xian walked in with Yan Bingyun, nodded to Xue Qing in front of him, "Master Xue."

The two stood beside their seats calmly, and the little eunuch stood at the door.

"The imperial decree has arrived." The little eunuch said.

Xue Qing immediately walked over and knelt down in front of the little eunuch, while Fan Xian and Yan Bingyun knelt aside.

"Xue Qing, governor of Jiangnan Liangjiang, has maintained close contact with the capital city since he took office. He is an upright and upright official. He handed over all the illegal supplies from below to the capital city. It is specially ordered to accept the temporary position of the Admiral of Jiujiang, and to manage the inside and outside of the south of the Yangtze River without any mistakes! Distribute hundreds of acres of fertile land according to the order, and there are 79 pieces of good products and 10 taels of silver as tributes from Dongyi City, I respect you!"

When the little eunuch skillfully rolled up the imperial decree, Xue Qing's expression had changed. What he stared blankly was not the little eunuch in front of him, but Fan Xian at the side.

"Master Xue, please return this imperial decree to you so that you can keep it." The little eunuch immediately went to help Xue Qing who was in front of him.

Xue Qing got up immediately, knowing that no one can offend the father-in-law. Xue Qing understood, and immediately said, "Elder-in-law, please stay in the humble house for a few more days, and ask me to entertain you."

"This slave is also from Jiangnan, and now I have returned to Jiangnan under the light of Master Xue, and I am quite grateful. Master Xue just kneeled down to the imperial decree, and now the imperial decree has been received. You are now the most powerful person in the Qing Kingdom, and you are in charge of Jiangnan inside and outside. Where is the slave? Can you eat here?" The little eunuch is a sensible person, he said with a smile, "Besides, I still have to go back to the capital city, now that Hou Gonggong's confidant and the overlord of the Overwatch Council are here, if I live for a long time to eat and drink , isn’t that the ground breaking under the prince’s feet?”

"My father-in-law is serious." Fan Xian knew that the person who delivered the imperial decree was also under Eunuch Hou's subordinates. The father-in-law's favorite thing to do was to make jokes. Fan Xian was a person who could definitely take a joke. He laughed, "How dare I Reporting to Eunuch, if Eunuch returns and speaks kindly to Eunuch Hou, Fan Xian has done a few good deeds during this period of time."

Fan Xian walked up to the little eunuch, took out a stack of banknotes, and said casually, "I'm in a hurry to go out, I don't know how many banknotes are here, it's my father-in-law doing me a favor, for you and Eunuch Hou .”

The little eunuch was surprised. This is the residence of the governor of Liangjiang who also served as the admiral of Jiujiang. Just now the emperor said that his two sleeves are cool. Are you bribing me in front of my face?

But eunuchs are eunuchs, and ordinary officials would have pissed their shit out of fright, but eunuchs are different, they can't roll their butts, and they can't piss casually, so he put it in his arms immediately and didn't count it. I believe Fan Xian's meaning of course he understood It's clear, I didn't specify how much it is, but I said, let you honor Eunuch Hou, you can see how much it is, this is not something I assign.This remark made the little eunuch more comfortable. He received the money and said, "My lords, the servants will not bother you. I will go back to the capital city."

Xue Qing was very satisfied, because someone had to do this job, but he couldn't do it very well, so Fan Xian could only do it, and Fan Xian did it very thoughtfully and thoroughly, Xue Qing nodded immediately, and his face looked much better. Yes, after seeing off the little eunuch, he hurriedly turned around and invited Fan Xian and Yan Bingyun to sit down, at this moment he was elated.

"Congratulations, you've been promoted again," Fan Xian said.

"My lord Fan, after what happened, I finally understood why you were the imperial envoy, why you were the one who took over the internal treasury, and why you were the next master of the Overwatch Council." Xue Qing said with a smile.

"Why didn't that person talk about it? It's been a long time since I left this capital city, and I haven't heard anyone praise me." Fan Xian laughed.

"The imperial envoy is you, because you dare to kill all the people who should be killed. Those of us who are courtiers understand that if the emperor wants to kill people, we can't just say it, let alone do it, so it's us who are poor. Courtier, it is not easy to guess and think, but it is even more difficult to do it. Once upon a time, some people couldn't guess, died, some people guessed, died, some people guessed, but do If you don't come, you're still dead." Xue Qing sighed, "There are countless people who were injured in both defeats, and those who retreated completely like Mr. Fan are the No. 1 in the Qing Kingdom."

Fan Xian smiled without saying a word, and continued to listen.

"As for the internal treasury, His Majesty is also very clear. Who can not be greedy? It is impossible for someone not to be greedy. Before taking charge of this bank, he made a living by throwing money into his sack every day without rest. Such an official position , anyone wants to do it, and anyone can do it, but you, Fan Xian, can do it alone in the whole world." Xue Qing said.

"Why is that?" Yan Bingyun interrupted with some confusion.

"Let me give you an example. For example, the profit of the warehouse within a year is 1000 million taels. After deducting the personnel costs, material costs, raw material costs and transportation costs needed to continue to operate the warehouse, the remaining 8000 million taels. The eldest princess will take Go halfway, 4000 million taels of silver, and the rest will be exploited layer by layer. At best, there may be only 2000 million taels of silver left in the capital city." Xue Qing said, "Master Fan is different. First of all, he will not let the internal treasury decrease. Production, this year alone, when Mr. Fan was not in power, relying on Wuliangye and Tanbo Bookstore, Mr. Fan increased his income by 3000 million taels of silver. It's impossible to be taken away by others, but after Fan Xian's own income is exhausted, he will give even more to the capital city."

Yan Bingyun suddenly realized.

"The third point is the Overwatch Council." Xue Qing looked at Fan Xian, "Don't look at our little Mr. Fan, who is handsome and suave, he is a poetic talent, but when he uses his scheming, he is no better than that." The old, treacherous and cunning are so young, they even rank above the vast majority of people, and Master Xiao Fan is thoughtful and rigorous, and most importantly, he will leave a way out for himself."

Fan Xian looked at Xue Qing, smiled and nodded, "Thank you for your love, my lord."

"But this time, I can't help you. I can tell you clearly that I am not from the Overwatch Council, but from His Majesty." Xue Qing's words were obvious, and he seemed to have guessed why Fan Xian came here. .
