Fengluo Pingyang

Fang Yuesheng returned to Shenwuhou's mansion, but saw a carriage parked by the wall, and a figure walking around hesitantly.

After Fang Yuesheng approached, he realized that the man was actually Zhong Tianyao.

When Zhong Tianyao saw him, his face showed a bit of embarrassment, he hesitated for a while, and then came over.

Fang Yuesheng frowned, Zhong Tianyao seemed to be frightened, and stopped again.

Fang Yuesheng pulled the horsewhip impatiently: "Zhong Tianyao, what's the matter with you?"

"Yuesheng..." Zhong Tianyao called out, but was speechless again.

"Don't tell me I went in." Fang Yuesheng raised his foot impatiently and walked into the mansion, Zhong Tianyao hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

"Yuesheng, I... I'm here to apologize to you."

Fang Yuesheng looked at him suspiciously, Zhong Tianyao's eyes flickered, and he didn't dare to look directly at him.

"Yuesheng, I—"

"Okay, I forgive you." Fang Yuesheng casually tapped the palm of his hand with the scabbard, but Zhong Tianyao was startled.He had prepared a long speech before he could say it, so he forgave him like this?

Fang Yuesheng gave him a sideways glance, stepped forward to knock on the door, and turned around, "Go in and talk."

Zhong Tianyao, who was still in a daze, was pulled in like this.

Xu Ruxin, who had been following behind, looked at the closed door and gritted his teeth resentfully.

"Yuesheng, aren't you angry with me?" Zhong Tianyao held the tea and looked at him carefully.

"What's there to be angry about? It's human nature to be wise and protect yourself, and you're not doing anything wrong." At least Zhong Tianyao didn't make trouble, and even gave him some things.Maybe it was just to make up for his own conscience, to make himself feel better, but at least his conscience is still there, which is not the same as Xu Ruxin and Xu Yuanqing.

Being forgiven so easily, Zhong Tianyao didn't know how to continue, and fell silent softly.

Fang Yuesheng glanced at him: "Master Zhong asked you to come."

Zhong Tianyao was a little stunned: "How do you know?"

Fang Yuesheng snorted: "After so much, I can't see some things clearly, and I'm too stupid." Now that Lingji has gained power in the court, he is trusted by the emperor, and Lingji has taken care of the Fang family a lot.Ling Ji never had close contacts with other people in the court, no matter if they were honored or poor, he would never get involved.These people wanted to win Ling Ji over, but they couldn't find any other way, so they could only start with the people around him.

Zhong Tianyao sighed lightly: "Yuesheng, you really have grown up."

"No one has more eyes than anyone else, it all depends on whether everyone is willing to put their heart into it." Fang Yuesheng tugged at the folds on his sleeves and said expressionlessly.

Zhong Tianyao nodded.Fang Yuesheng didn't speak anymore, he didn't know what to say, and fell into an awkward silence for a while.

Although he felt guilty about Yue Sheng, he did come with a mission today.I thought that based on Ling Ji's background, he would get closer to the Fu family's faction, but I didn't expect Ling Ji to be so ordinary with everyone.The few officials who had contacts were also young people who were just fledgling, and they hadn't grown up yet, so there was more than one person who thought about it.

It's just that Zhong Tianyao once helped Fangfu when he was in trouble. Although it was just a drop in the bucket, it was still a favor that could be used.Zhong Tianyao, who is usually idle, was kicked out of the shelves like this, and came to have a relationship with Fang Yuesheng.

Fang Yuesheng looked at his uncomfortable expression and smiled slightly.

After all, Zhong Tianyao is not Xu Ruxin, there is no great good and no great evil, and he is not very proficient in even doing this kind of relationship building.He was the same as his previous self, just a playboy with no intentions.

Fang Yuesheng stood up: "Okay, I've finished the tea, and I accept your apology. If there is no other important matter, I will send it away soon."

Zhong Tianyao quickly grabbed Fang Yuesheng's sleeve: "Wait, Yuesheng, I haven't finished my cup of tea yet, are you going to see off the guests?"

"Then hurry up and drink." Fang Yuesheng was impatient, and stood with his arms folded and looked at him, obviously not wanting to flirt with him anymore.

Zhong Tianyao choked, and looked at Fang Yuesheng helplessly.Just now I saw that he was quite mature in his dealings with people, but now he has completely reverted to his old ways, and he is impatient to do it at all.

Zhong Tianyao coughed lightly. It seemed that what he wanted to inquire about slowly would not work with Fang Yuesheng. If he were to be more direct, he would save trouble for himself.

"Yuesheng, you live in Shenwuhou Mansion, you must be very close to Lord Ling, right?" Zhong Tianyao said carefully.

When Fang Yuesheng thought about those "closeness", his face became a little hot, and he gave Zhong Tianyao a look.

"Speak straight, don't inquire about things you shouldn't inquire about!"

Isn't this just a cliché? What did he inquire about?Zhong Tianyao was a little depressed, so he could only continue: "Master Ling and Mrs. Ling have also been in the capital for a long time. I don't know if there is any lady in the match, so that I can say goodbye to Marquis Shenwu?"

When Fang Yuesheng heard this, he immediately became furious.

Shuanghe left, and Zheng Mofang came.It was so hard for Lord Fang Hou to be a hindrance—no, he was mediating and dismissing Miss Zheng. How come people outside are thinking about Ling Ji's marriage? !

Is Ling Ji able to attract bees and butterflies like this? !It's too rough!

"Who told you to meddle in your own business!" Fang Yuesheng's smart and calm appearance just now disappeared without a trace, and he pushed and pushed Zhong Tianyao impatiently: "What's the matter with you?! Lian Shenwu Hou also dares to covet you, you are so daring! Go away, you are not welcome in the Marquis of Shenwu Mansion!"

Zhong Tianyao was pushed hard by him, backed up again and again, finally pushed to the edge of the veranda, leaning on the pillars to gain a firm foothold.

"Why are you crazy?!" He also became slightly annoyed.Just now, he was still lamenting the coldness of the world like a modest gentleman, why did he suddenly change into this unreasonable young master? !

Fang Yuesheng is jealous of Haitaotian, no matter whether he is annoyed or not.

Although Master Fang, Mrs. Fang and Mrs. Ling, Mrs. Ling have no plans to be restless for the time being, but they can't stand the outsiders trying to make up their minds.

After all, Ling Ji is a powerful young minister, and if he goes down for a year or two, he will definitely not be able to avoid this matter.If some people can ask the emperor to bestow marriage, it will be even more annoying.But how can he and Lingji have a bright and honest day together?

Fang Yuesheng pushed Zhong Tianyao out of the corner door all the way, and asked the janitor to open the corner door and blast him out, clapped his hands, and hummed to Zhong Tianyao with an unfriendly expression: "Don't come to trouble me again in the future! Otherwise, I will see you hit him once." You once!"

Zhong Tianyao stared dumbfounded at Fang Yuesheng's unreasonable threats, turned around and went back, the door was also slammed shut in front of him, it took him a long time to recover, he stepped forward and kicked twice bitterly, but only kicked his own. It hurts.

"Fang Yuesheng! What are you crazy about!"

"Master, are you alright, young master?" Seeing him like this, the servant hurried over to express concern.

"Go away!" Zhong Tianyao pushed the servant away, jumped into his carriage, "Go home!"

Zhong Tianyao's carriage rattled away, and another carriage stopped not far away. Xu Ruxin lifted the curtain of the carriage, squinted his eyes at the gate of Shenwuhou's Mansion, and then at Zhong Tianyao who was leaving. The hand holding the fan handle became tighter and tighter.

The same person who ignored him when Fang's mansion was down and down, why did Fang Yuesheng treat him alone? !

A few days later, a soldier in military armor was brought before Xu Ruxin in Guang'anhou Mansion.

"Reporting to my son, Lord Hou ordered my younger brother to come forward to report that the war situation ahead is urgent, and the first batch of military supplies can only relieve the urgent need. Please hurry up and prepare the next batch of military supplies!"

Xu Ruxin frowned deeply, looking at the messenger in front of him.

"The Marquis of Shenwu has just rushed to the northwest with the first batch of military funds, and he is still on the way at this time, so he must not have arrived in the army yet?"

The messenger said lowly: "Master Hou has read the letter from the son, and has already made a preliminary estimate. Master Hou said that it is definitely not enough, it is better to make preparations early."

Xu Ruxin couldn't relax a bit between his brows, he waved his hand and said, "Go down."

After the messenger left, the steward stepped forward and said, "My lord, in order to prepare for this batch of military funds, the warehouse in the mansion has been mostly empty. Although the emperor ordered the Ministry of Households to assist my lord, the money that the Ministry of Finance can approve has already been counted in." No matter how much you prepare now, the second batch of military funds requested by Lord Hou is so huge, I'm afraid it will be..."

"The army of the Xirong Kingdom is strong and strong, so every battle has suffered heavy losses. It is not easy for the master to defend the border, and the emperor has too many worries, so he can't concentrate on preparing for the battle. If I don't share my worries for the master, who can be the master's reliance." Xu Ruxin frowned.

The butler hurriedly bent over and said, "Your Majesty is pure and filial, Lord Hou must be very pleased. If you didn't trust your Majesty, you wouldn't have sent letters repeatedly, leaving such an important matter to your Majesty."

Xu Ruxin nodded.

The Marquis of Guang'an has not returned to Beijing for almost ten years, and has been stationed in the west.Because of the huge consumption of military resources in several battles, although they all ended with success, some courtiers who opposed the war and the lord began to rumor that the Marquis of Guang'an had the ambition to support himself and become king.At that time, thanks to the mediation of King Jiajun in front of the emperor, the emperor's doubts were dispelled, and the Marquis of Guang'an was not called back to Beijing for punishment.

It's just that the Marquis of Guang'an will be responsible for most of the preparations for military resources in the future, so as not to let those cowardly and foolish officials who are hiding in the capital find an excuse to impeach Marquis of Guang'an.

The Marquis of Guang'an led his soldiers to fight bravely to protect the border and defend the land. How could these incompetent villains in the court be restrained at will? !

Xu Ruxin stood up and walked towards the study.

"Go and find the person in charge of the warehouse to meet me. The woman in charge of the warehouse in the back house also finds me."

The butler hurriedly responded, but there was a trace of bitterness on his face.

Every time the Northwest War came, their Guang'an Hou Mansion would experience a shock.Master Hou's reputation as General Changsheng was great, but it didn't bring much benefit to those who stayed behind in the mansion.Judging by the current attitude of the son of the world, he is actually going to use the small warehouse of the wives in the back house, this time is worse than ever before.

The butler doesn't understand war, and he doesn't have such deep admiration for the Marquis of Guang'an like Xu Ruxin, but he can't figure it out. The Xirong Kingdom in the northwest has harassed the border since the founding of the Dahua Dynasty. Could it be that every time they deal with them? Do they all need to be so expensive?

There was no way to compare it before. Ever since Marquis Shenwu came back from victory, he also fought and guarded the border. Marquis Shenwu did not have such a strong backing as the Marquis of Guang'an. Not only did he win the battle, but he also brought back a lot of spoils.With such a huge gap in front of them, the few prominent stewards in the Marquis of Guang'an's mansion were not without doubts.

But what's the use of their doubts?The son of the world is about to evacuate the warehouse, and they have no right to say anything.
