Chapter 306 On the Verge of Breaking Out

Nandi

The Chen family received a message from Chang'an, saying that the letter had been delivered to the emperor and the imperial envoy had left Chang'an.

The few core members of the Chen family who knew about this were very excited and felt that the Chen family would make a contribution.

They thought that once this matter was resolved, the emperor would definitely reward their Chen family.

However, they did not know that the credit of their Chen family had been completely stolen by Xie Zhan.

At this time, Xie Zhan, who was at home, also received a secret letter.

Because of the rain, he had been visiting the Chen Mansion every other day recently.

But the Chen Mansion received this news and did not send anyone to inform him.

Thinking of this, Xie Zhan smiled slightly, but the smile was a little cold.

He closed his eyes and silently reviewed his entire plan in his mind. When he found that there was no omission, he opened his eyes and slowly exhaled.

He knew that he could start the next step, which was another key point in the overall situation. All the preparations were ready.

That night, he stayed in the study and did not go back to his room.

That night, Chen Jin, who was hanging out outside, occasionally caught a glimpse of a familiar face. Seeing the man's fleeting profile and familiar figure, he was shocked and immediately left his friends behind and followed him.

After confirming his guess, he immediately went back home and knocked on the door of his father's study.

The next day, the rain was still drizzling.

In the Chen Mansion's study, Chen Jiaye and Chen Jiayu were discussing things inside.

Chen Jiaye asked with concern, "Are you sure it's Xue Guangxian?"

Chen Jiayu nodded, "I sent someone to check it out, it should be him. He lives in the simple residence at the foot of the Puxian Temple mountain for pilgrims to rest."

Chen Jiaye murmured, "It's the place he would choose. He should be back."

Recently, they learned that it turned out that Xue Guangxian was able to successfully escape the pursuit of their Chen family three years ago because Ji Wuyin secretly helped Xue Guangxian, allowing him to leave the South smoothly.

Recently, he got a rumor that Ji Wuyin had gone on a long journey a few days ago, and the place he went to was Liaodong County.

Therefore, Chen Jiaye guessed that Xue Guangxian was very likely to come back, and he should want to go back to the gathering place of the Li people to take a look.

"Brother, what should we do next?"

"Go meet him!"

"Okay."

Chen Jiaye looked at Chen Jiayu and said meaningfully, "Bring more people. Three years ago, he caused huge losses to the Chen family. This time, we must make sure that he can't escape."

"Okay!"

The two brothers looked at each other, their eyes were intriguing.

So the Chen family began to mobilize a large number of people, and Chen Yu, the eldest son of Chen, was responsible for this matter.

Chen Jin had been paying attention to the movements in the main courtyard. Seeing his father mobilizing people, he hurried over to say that he wanted to go out with him!

Chen Jiaye agreed without thinking too much. Young people should exercise more and fight more. Besides, he and his second uncle were still watching.

Mrs. Chen on the side was extremely worried, "It's been raining all day, can't we go out another day?" Mrs. Chen was particularly nervous today, and she didn't want her husband to go out.

"No." After saying that, Chen Jiaye left.

It's been three years, and Xue Guangxian has appeared in the South for the first time. It is estimated that he is passing through to return to the gathering place of the Li people. He will not stay in the South for too long. This time his whereabouts have been discovered. If he is not caught, the chance next time will be slim.

Mrs. Chen watched the servants holding an umbrella for him, and they walked quickly to the side of the carriage and got on the carriage.

Not long after, a line of more than ten carriages began to move forward and gradually disappeared in the rain.

The rain was still falling, with no sign of getting smaller.

The movement of the Chen Mansion's manpower mobilization was very loud inside, but on rainy days, their movements were concealed, and outsiders did not know.

Only Xie Zhan silently asked people to pay attention to the movement of the Chen Mansion. As soon as they went out, Xie Zhan received the news.

Chen Jiaye and Chen Jiayu were fooled, and Xie Zhan was not surprised at all.

First, the grievances between the Chen family and Xue Guangxian are very deep: second, the Chen family is too greedy.

The Chen family is actually very secretive about Xue Guangxian, and many related information is blocked.

He checked the past information and found that Xiao Zhuya Island was torn back by Xue Guangxian for the Chen family. At that time, Chen Jiaye actually had his eyes on another fertile land, and it was Xue Guangxian who urged him to choose Xiao Zhuya Island.

Now that gold mines have been discovered on Xiao Zhuya Island, Chen Jiaye and others will inevitably think more, whether Xue Guangxian has long seen that there are gold mines on Xiao Zhuya Island, so he insisted on this small island at the beginning. Does he have any special way to discover gold mines?

Even if they don't think too much, he will lead them in this direction.

Xie Zhan believes that as long as they find out that Xue Guangxian has returned to the South, new and old grudges, plus huge interests involved, it will be difficult for Chen Jiaye and others not to be tempted.

At this time, the servant came to report, "Chief, the young lady sent someone to ask, are you ready?"

Xie Zhan's face was a little cold, "I'll go over now."

Chen Baozhu was very happy to see Xie Zhan. She smiled and asked with her belly that was not yet visible, "Can we go out?"

Xie Zhan advised her, "It's raining today, can we go to Puxian Temple another day?"

"No!" After Chen Baozhu finished speaking, she found that her tone was too tough, and she softened and said, "Didn't we agree to go to Puxian Temple today? Today is a good day, and I'm going to fulfill my vow, how can I change the date?"

Besides, it was just a little rain, even if it rained knives from the sky, she would go!

"You are pregnant, it's easy to slip on rainy days."

Chen Baozhu is a stubborn person. When she gets stubborn, the more others don't let her do something, the more she will do it.

Chen Baozhu shook her head stubbornly, "I just want to go today."

At the same time, perhaps because of her pregnancy, her emotions are particularly sensitive. When Zhao Yutan was pregnant before, her husband accompanied her to burn incense and pray for peace. Now it's her turn to accompany her to Puxian Temple, but he refuses to do so.

She felt very wronged, "Husband, let's go today? The rain shouldn't keep falling. Maybe it will stop after we get there?"

Xie Zhan looked helpless, "Go if you want to."

Lu Family

In the rain, the servants of the Lu family prepared the carriage according to the instructions of the eldest lady Lu Fei, and the servants in charge of the gatehouse quickly removed the threshold of the side door and pushed the side door open.

There were servants standing outside the gate in the rain to intercept the passing pedestrians and carriages. This posture showed that someone in the Lu family was going out.

At this time, Lu Xihua happened to come back from outside, and his accompanying servant was about to call people aside so that they could let the carriage in.

But Lu Xihua stopped him, "Pull the carriage aside, let's wait!"

There was no one else in the house except those people. He was very curious, who would go out at this time?

"Young Master, this is the carriage used by the eldest lady privately." The eldest lady did not use her big carriage engraved with the family emblem.

Lu Xihua said, "This bitch!" Then he looked at the carriage gradually driving away, his eyes narrowed slightly, Lu Fei went out in the heavy rain? Wouldn't she go to meet her lover privately?

"Catch up!"

"Okay!"

Recently, Lu Xihua hated Lu Fei, the eldest sister. If he had just ignored Lu Fei, the eldest sister born by his mother, then the actions of this eldest sister recently really offended him.

Recently, she has been putting on eye drops in front of her father, often picking on his faults, causing him to be blamed and scolded by his father recently.

Sometimes he could even feel his father's disappointment in him. It was all caused by that bitch Lu Fei!

"Have you caught up?" Lu Fei asked.

"The eldest son has caught up."

The sky was clear in Liaodong County. Qin Sheng said goodbye to his family and his beloved wife, put on a small bag, and went on a long journey with a small brocade bag in his arms.

Xue Xu: "Prepare a carriage."

Qin Sheng glanced at him, "Why prepare a carriage? Go by water!" He thought to himself, who would take a leisurely carriage to accompany you to the south? !

"I won't go by water."

Qin Sheng despised him. He was so afraid of death that it was enough.

"Don't worry, even if you encounter danger, I won't let you die."

Xue Xu looked at him suspiciously. Although he has always been lucky, there should be only one end for a landlubber who falls into the water, right? He was lucky, so he could only die more beautifully, right?

At this time, they happened to pass a lake with a very deep draft.

"Wait." Qin Sheng looked around and found that there were few people around early in the morning. Without saying a word, he put his bag aside, took off his clothes, jumped up, and plunged into the water. Xue Xu: ... Not long after, Qin Sheng emerged from the bottom of the water, holding a turtle in his hand! Xue Xu: ! ! ! "When did you learn to swim?" Wasn't this guy a landlubber before? Jealous, he also learned to swim, but unfortunately he couldn't learn it. Qin Sheng said proudly, "How difficult is this?" He improved his swimming skills in the intervals between suppressing bandits in Fang County and Anshi. He knew a little water before, but he also knew that the sea and the canal were different from the small pool. Xue Xu looked at the turtle that had shrunk into a ball in his hand. He even caught the turtle. How deep did he dive? "Okay, I'll listen to you this time and take the water route!"

This turtle is good, it has a good meaning, the turtle means home, and the turtle also means longevity, it's perfect.
