It was already a month later when Hu Cong received the letter. He was not in Jinling and was following Xie Xinnian to collect Xie Yunxiao's account. Fortunately, it was as he thought. The person was not dead. He must have used tricks to deceive the person. He immediately separated from Xie Xinnian and rushed to Bianjing.

At this moment, Feng Zhuohua also saw Shan Bingchan's letter. She said in the letter that she saw a person who looked very similar to Mr. Xie, except that he had short hair and a beard. If she People must be surprised when they look at it.

Seeing this, Feng Zhuohua wondered where he could stay, so he immediately decided to go to Bianjing.

Feng Zhuohua took the baby, who was more than four months old, to Chunhua Courtyard.

Feng Zhuohua said: "There is a letter from Bianjing, saying that I met the third master and I will go to Bianjing."

Old man Xie said: "I'll go with you. This rebellious son doesn't return home with so many things going on, and he doesn't know what he's doing outside. I want to see what this man is up to."

Feng Zhuohua didn't know what to say. She knew that there was little hope of going to Bianjing this time. After all, the letter said it was just a resemblance. He said: "Dad, I'm not here, Xin Nian is not here, and Xin Shou is getting married at home, so many things require your presence. Besides, it's hard work for my mother to help me take care of the children, so I can rest assured that you two can take care of them together."

The reason is far-fetched. The old man is indispensable in the family. Mrs. Xie has some suspicions. This child has been wearing plain clothes all year round, like a widow. She feels that this child has something to hide from the two elders. She is not selective about many things. After thinking about it deeply, since he didn't want the old man to go and there were a lot of things unclear, he said, "Just follow the third daughter-in-law. We'll just wait at home to deal with the couple's affairs."

Mr. Xie said: "What he did is outrageous. What will happen if he doesn't come back if I don't go?"

Mrs. Xie said with a heavy heart: "He was very busy in the past, but you didn't know it. This time just ask the third wife to go."

Then he said to Feng Zhuohua, "Go and bring more people with you on the way."

Feng Zhuohua was blessed and said: "Yu'er, please ask mother to take care of you for a while."

Old lady Xie waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, my grandson will be taken care of."

Feng Zhuohua nodded and said to Ji Xiang Ruyi, "You have been staying at Chunhua Courtyard these days."

The two responded: "Yes."

Feng Zhuohua took one last look at the child and left Chunhua Academy.

When Feng Zhuohua left, the two old people were silent. Old lady Xie was not the only one who had suspicions. Old man Xie also had suspicions, but he just kept some things in his heart and didn't say anything.

There was something strange about Xie Jiangsheng. Xie Xinnian said that he had something wrong when he mentioned the third child, which was very abnormal.

He stepped forward and hugged the child. He felt sorry for the child inexplicably. Not only did he lose his father at a young age, he didn't want to think too deeply about it. He teased the child and said: "Ayu, I am my grandfather. My grandfather takes you with me." Let's go play." Then he took the child from Jixiang's hands, with a loving look on his face, not caring about his face at all.

Feng Zhuohua simply packed up and took Shuangxi with him, and brought six people with him, driving a carriage, and left immediately without any delay.

......

Hu Cong rushed to Bianjing eight days later.

On this day, Baili Chengan took Xie Yunxiao to see General Huaihua and the Minister of War. When he was young, he made many friends in Bianjing, and he asked people to invite them to dinner.

Baili Cheng'an is so young, but because he doesn't do well in life, he almost bows down when speaking to capable people in high positions.

He said: "This is Quanzi. He will also take the martial arts exam this year."

The Minister of War has been invited to too many dinner parties recently. It seems that he would not come today unless he knew the background of the Baili family. For the sake of being a distant relative of De Fei, he came here.

The two of them looked at Xie Yunxiao, who looked like a martial arts practitioner from the outside. However, what the court lacked was not a reckless man. The Minister of War first asked: "Who do you study under?"

Baili Cheng'an had done some homework for Xie Yunxiao before he came. The most famous master in the capital was Yang Suzhong, the master of swordsmanship from Huang Sun, the emperor's son. Of course, they would not be like the princes. I was introduced by someone and received guidance from the Yang family." The guidance is not the master, and there is no way to verify it.

Speaking of the fact that the bodyguard was naturally not outstanding, the Minister of War said: "Have you read the book of war?"

Xie Yunxiao nodded and said, "I've seen some."

The Minister of War said: "Then tell me what you think of the various vassals in the north." Since you are reading military books, it is natural to see whether you are concerned about your family and country. If you only read books, you will not have lofty ambitions.

This issue is related to the military, political affairs, and people's views on people's livelihood. The issue is no less than a political exam.

Xie Yunxiao cupped his hands and said calmly: "The people in the north are in a state of agitation. It is indeed related to the fact that the vassal kingdoms often harass the border. Our country's military strength is not weak. If we don't go to war or do the Northern Expedition, we must be looking for countermeasures. After all, it's not easy for the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and it's even more difficult in the prosperous times. Although I see I have read military books, but I have never seen more. I have read more, and talking about it is just talk on paper. Naturally, I don’t have a higher opinion. If you give me a chance, I will definitely ask to go to the border, serve the country, and die with all my heart."

General Huaihua said: "Okay!" Then he praised: "You are different from others, it's true."

The previous few were almost long speeches, just to show that they knew more than the man in front of them. If they didn't understand, they didn't understand. They were also insightful. Going to war would indeed waste people and money, and there was a reason why the officials did not advocate war.

General Huaihua said: "Tell me about your experience?"

Xie Yunxiao said: "The rough experience is not worth mentioning in front of these two adults."

General Huaihua said: "Don't tell me, just eat first. What's your name?"

"Baili Jimo!"

"Lonely? Get married if you're lonely!" General Huaihua joked.

Xie Yunxiao said: "It is better to serve the court than to get married." Saying what the superiors like to hear is the first step in the way out.

Baili Cheng'an couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that the bastard was coping with it easily.

It wasn't until he was on the way back that Baili Cheng'an felt that the money was well spent. Not to mention letting the people above see it, at least it would make such a good impression.

……

Hu Cong searched for Baili's house for a long time according to the address, but couldn't find it. It would be impossible to find this kind of alley unless he was an acquaintance.

He asked around where Baili's family was, and happened to meet Baili Cheng'an and Xie Yunxiao who had returned.

Baili Chengan happened to see his neighbor and said, "Just turn in."

Hu Cong raised his hands to express his thanks, and turned around to see an old man and Mr. Xie, whom he didn't recognize for a moment. It was only when he saw the gesture asking him to wait outside that it was confirmed that it was him.

Baili Chengan asked: "What are you doing with Baili's family?"

Hu Cong cupped his hands and said, "Are you the head of the Baili family?"

Baili Chengan nodded and said, "What do you want?"

Hu Cong said: "It's like this. I heard that there is a learned old man from Baili family who is famous."

Baili Chengan touched his beard and looked at the person in front of him. He was dressed like a kid from a rich family. Since he was famous, his fame must have spread, or someone in his family was studying. He stretched out his hand and said: "In the room please."

Hu Cong and Xie Yunxiao looked at each other. Baili Chengan walked in front, and Hu Cong followed behind. He kept a distance from the people in front and whispered: "Third Master, what's the matter with you?"

Xie Yunxiao whispered: "Speak when no one is around."

"Can't you say it openly?"

Xie Yunxiao nodded and said: "If you offend a big shot, you may be in trouble in the future. Stay away from me first."

"Who?"

"King Yu."

King Yu? Except for the emperor, Prince Yu is the center of power. He occupies both the eldest son and the direct descendant. He occupies everything except the title of prince. How could he get into trouble with the officials?

Hu Cong couldn't help but frown.
