The pottery merchant was terrified, fell to his knees with a "plop", and quickly admitted his mistake.

"Go on, be more careful when you go out recently." Tao Qian waved his hand.

The pottery merchant hastily retreated, and when he was out of the room, his expression suddenly changed.

Clenching his fists tightly with both hands, Tao Shang felt for the first time that his father was really old, hesitant, stubborn, and lacking in courage. If this continues, Xuzhou may really be doomed.

His eyes shot out with angry lines of fire, he flicked his sleeves, and strode straight out of the room.

......

Yuan Xi didn't wait long in the restaurant when Mi Fang sneaked in as expected.

"Sister|husband, news came from the shogunate today that the pottery merchant was indeed caught in the trap, and he went to complain to Taozhou Mu, but he seemed to be reprimanded by Taozhou Mu."

Yuan Xi became interested and asked, "Is this the potter's business?"

Obviously only framed his own family, but Mi Fang was happier than anyone else at this time, he smiled and said: "Of course not, he went to find his sister|husband Cao Bao, and probably wants to do it himself."

Yuan Xi frowned and said, "Cao Bao?"

"Oh, this Cao Bao is a local rich family in Xuzhou. A few years ago, he married a younger sister to a pottery merchant, and his own value has also increased. He became a captain, but he basically has no real power. If he sends troops without authorization, he can send up to a hundred troops. Soldiers are good."

Tao Qian was able to manage Xuzhou in the place of the Fourth World War, so he naturally had some skills, so the military and political power was firmly in his own hands.

Normally, even if there are some titled captains, generals, etc., they are basically empty-handed, and there are very few who can directly send troops.

"One hundred soldiers." Yuan Xi whispered in his ear quietly, Mi Fang could do whatever she wanted, and soon left satisfied.

"Everyone, hurry up and get ready." After Yuan Xi sent Mi Fang away, he stood up with a smile on his face and said, "That pottery boy, maybe he will do it tonight, and then we will directly rescue him."

Yuan Xiang was quite puzzled and said, "If we do something at night, the city gates will be under martial law, what should we do if we can't get out?"

"Then wait until the daytime and then go out. If it doesn't work, just rush out." Yuan Xi didn't worry too much. The pottery merchant acted on his own initiative, and Tao Qian was not stupid. ?

Of course, if the potters started earlier, they might have a chance to slip out.

At the beginning of the afternoon, under Mi Fang's support, Yuan Xi and his party quietly entered Mi's mansion again.

Hide in a small guest room.

Sitting opposite Yuan Xi, Mi Fang said worriedly: "Brother went out in the afternoon and hasn't come back yet, so I don't know if something will happen."

280 Chapter Seven Inner Ghost

Yuan Xi comforted: "As long as the pottery merchant is not stupid, he will definitely not do anything outside at this time. I guess he will definitely wait for the eldest brother to enter the mansion before doing anything."

Mi Fang had an inexplicable trust in Yuan Xi. Hearing this, she felt relieved, nodded and said, "I hope, but I'm still a little worried."

Yuan Xi asked: "What are you worried about?"

"What if the eldest brother is captured without a fight, and let the potter directly capture him?"

Yuan Xi was slightly taken aback. It was really possible. Although Mi Zhu was thinking about the family, he did nothing wrong relatively speaking. With an open heart, if he was willing to go directly to see Tao Qian, he might be caught without a fight.

"What I'm most worried about is that my eldest brother listened to the words of the pottery merchant and was obediently willing to go to see Tao Qian. He fell into his trap, and then Tao Qian went straight to kill first and play later, ha ha."

Mi Fang looked at Yuan Xi in embarrassment.

Yuan Xi hesitated, and said: "How many servants are there in the house now? How many are sincere?"

"There are a lot of servants, but those who can leave, they all left last time, and most of the remaining ones can be discarded at any time."

"How about this......"

Yuan Xi whispered something in his ear.Mi Fang nodded frequently.

At Xu o'clock in the evening, Mi Zhu finally rushed back from never going out, with a very serious look on his face.

Mi Fang had been waiting for a long time, and when she saw Mi Zhu coming back, she was completely relieved, and stepped forward and said, "Brother, you are back, you worried me to death."

Mi Zhu's expression was not good, but he still asked, "What are you worried about?"

Mi Fang glanced at the tightly closed door, pulled her eldest brother inside, and said in a low voice, "Don't you know about the rumors outside?"

"What rumor?" Mi Zhu said angrily, "Didn't Xianyi tell us long ago, what is there to make a fuss about?"

Mi Fang didn't care too much about the elder brother's attitude, he continued: "I'm not talking about what Xianyi said, I was talking about the last time we married Xianyi and transported the family assets out."

Mi Zhu glanced around, he really didn't know much about this, but Tao Qian's attitude towards him today was not quite right, which made him feel uncomfortable.

He dragged his younger brother into a room, and after sitting down, he said, "Tell me in detail, what's going on?"

Mi Fang didn't dare to hide anything, and slowly said everything Yuan Xi taught her.

"There are rumors about this outside?" After hearing what he said, Mi Zhu's face became even more ugly, and his beard, which represented masculinity, trembled a little.

Although it is indeed inappropriate to transfer the assets, it is still my own family... But Mi Zhu still understands this matter. If Tao Qian knew, he would definitely not be able to forgive himself.

"We don't seem to have any mistakes?" Mi Zhu was struggling with this problem, and murmured: "Marrying a daughter, dowry, and doing business outside, it stands to reason that there will be no problems, there must be an inner ghost!"

Mi Zhu pointed it out.

Mi Fang was taken aback, she knew her brother was powerful, but she didn't expect her to be so keen.

He calmed down a bit, and said in a low voice: "Brother, as far as we know, what kind of ghosts can there be, the problem now is that someone else is going to arrest us, what do you think we should do?"

He tried his best to speak in a calm tone, because the inner ghost was right in front of him, which made him very embarrassed.

"No!" Mi Zhu said resolutely, "Although Mr. Tao is old, he is not yet ignorant. When the war is approaching, he will definitely not do such a ignorant thing."

Mi Fang whispered: "I mean just in case, big brother, it's me in case, if something happens, we have to come up with a complete plan, right?"

Mi Zhu's eyes suddenly turned to Mi Fang, Mi Fang was startled, she looked away guiltily, and pretended to be puzzled, "Brother, what are you?"

Mi Zhu stared at him closely, and suddenly said: "Second brother, why don't you go out of the city now, go to Youzhou, and join Xianyi?"

Mi Fang quickly shook her head and said, "How is this possible? I'm leaving. Isn't this just confirming the rumors outside, and it will be even more difficult for Big Brother to get away at that time."

Mi Fang saw that her elder brother was silent, she felt ruthless, and persuaded: "Elder brother, why don't we go? There is really no need to stay in Xuzhou. There is a saying that a good bird chooses a tree to live in, and a virtuous minister chooses a master to serve. Now Taozhou is a shepherd We are getting old, the pottery merchant is useless, and he still has a grudge against us, it is really not a good idea to stay here, brother, make a decision early."

"Shut up!" Mi Zhu said angrily, "Why do potters hate us? It's not your good deed."

Mi Fang was dissatisfied in her heart, without herself, where did she come from? Now, he can listen to his elder brother for other things, but for this matter, he will come to it a hundred times, and he will not think that he has done anything wrong.

"Brother, could it be that without Xian Yi, you really plan to marry our own sister to that worthless dude?" Mi Fang also snorted, expressing her dissatisfaction.

"Little girl is not very old, what can she do if she is at home?" Mi Zhu said angrily, "Although Xianyi is good, it doesn't suit us..."
