Chapter 362: I don’t want this big Buddha!
"oh?"
Zhai Mo was very surprised and hurried to find out what happened.
This kind of thing would naturally not be discussed in detail in correspondence, and even if it was discussed, it might not be fully believed.
Now, Xu Su stood in front of him as usual, and was very persuasive. Zhai Mo became even more curious about the hidden story. Xu Su's visit was unconventional, but for Zhai Mo, these things were just small matters that he could handle, just as Old Master Xu said.
Matters related to the Xie family were the most important things for Zhai Mo. Only after Xu Su told him the truth could he decide how to deal with the following matters.
The servants in the mansion put the things in place, and Zhai Mo waved his hand to dismiss them.
Xu Su came over after changing his clothes at home. He hadn't eaten anything yet. While eating at the table, he recounted the whole story of his trip to Songjiang Town, Qingzhou Prefecture.
He also talked about how he was injured for some reason and almost died, and was later saved by Xie Yuchuan through the help of gods.
Given the relationship between Zhai Mo and the Xu family, there is no need to hide such things.
The Xie family's claim to be blessed by the gods had been around for a while, but for years people had always thought it was just a rumor. Even Zhai Mo himself had believed so.
However, today, after listening to Xu Su's words, he could no longer think so.
"Are you feeling better now?"
"alright."
Xu Su even stood up and threw a few punches on the spot to show that he was healed.
Zhai Mo held the white wine cup and drank silently for a while, then he exclaimed, "It's amazing! It turns out that the story of their Xie family's ancestors worshipping gods is not a rumor, but actually true?!"
Xu Su nodded heavily: "Really!"
"Then the heavy rain that doused the fire over the Duke's Mansion on the day of the house raid was also real?"
Xu Su thought about it and said, "That should be the case."
Zhai Mo took a deep breath, resting his arms on the table, staring sharply at Xu Su and asking, "How does Xie Yuchuan summon the gods? Do you know?"
Xu Su shook his head.
"Have you ever seen me when I was injured and lying on the bed?"
Xu Su looked up: ...
You hit the nail on the head.
When Zhai Mo saw his expression, his eyes lit up.
Wow! This guy must have seen something!
He must have understood it in his heart.
Seeing that Zhai Mo understood, Xu Su stopped talking and drank and ate meat in big gulps. After filling his stomach, he took the time to drink and chat with Zhai Mo slowly.
"Drink less."
Xu Su nodded, "It's okay."
The two chatted about other things during the meal. Xu Su handed the letter and things that Old Master Xu had asked him to bring to Zhai Mo. Zhai Mo opened the letter from the Xu Mansion in Beijing in front of him. After reading it, he was silent for a while, then looked up at Xu Su and said, "Where is that female doctor settled now?"
Xu Su swallowed the wine in his mouth and replied, "Stay in my house for the time being."
Zhai Mo's expression relaxed, and without saying much, he just said: "Alright, let her stay at the mansion for a few days, and wait for me to deal with it, and then take action."
Xu Su was a little curious, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this person?"
Zhai Mo glanced at him calmly, "We've been together all the way, didn't she tell you?"
"No, it's just that this girl is obsessed with medicine and is very stubborn." Having seen Chu Lingyuan's "ability", Xu Su respectfully declined.
Zhai Mo put the letter away, tucked it into his sleeve, and whispered, "She is the descendant of the late Prince Jingping. You must first protect her safety in the next few days."
"What?!!!"
Such a big secret, and my grandfather didn't even tell him when he left Beijing?!
Why?
Xu Su was completely stunned...
Zhai Mo patted his shoulder silently, not knowing how to comfort him for a moment. He pondered for a while and said only one sentence.
"The teacher has his own profound meaning."
The meal was like heaven and hell. The more Xu Su drank, the more he felt that Zhai Mo's wine was tasteless.
Seeing that he was frowning, Zhai Mo wanted to change the subject and ask him about the matter of the Xie family's gods, but when Xu Su left Xie Yuchuan, he was still a seriously ill patient in a coma. Apart from the vague figure he saw, the rest was told to him by his two deputy generals.
Zhai Mo's questions were too detailed for him to answer. With a dark face, he asked Shangguan, "Sir, what do you mean by grandfather?"
"Huh?" Zhai Mo was puzzled.
"The descendant of King Jingping."
"Oh, you mean Princess Leshan?"
Xu Su was even more stunned. "She still has a title?!"
Seeing Zhai Mo nodded, Xu Su's face darkened and he looked reluctant, "I can't afford to serve such a big Buddha."
No one can stay!
Xu Su remembered what Xu Laotian had told him when he left Beijing. When he arrived in Dengzhou, he handed the person over to Zhai Mo and told him not to interfere with the rest.
He wanted to send the person to Zhai Mo in the Commandery.
Zhai Mo raised his eyebrows and said, "You haven't been here for a long time, and there are a lot of chores to do. Do you think I have the time to take care of you?"
Xu Su: "..."
"Stay at your place for a few days, and I'll pick you up later."
"No!" With his natural sixth sense, Xu Su felt that this method would not work!
Zhai Mo took a sip of wine and said slowly, "Why don't we go back together later, meet the county lady, and ask her what she thinks."
Xu Su thought about it and said nothing.
Why do I always have the illusion that things are not going according to plan?
As night fell, Xu Su had drunk too much and was unsteady on his feet. Zhai Mo asked someone to take him home. Xu Su leaned on the car door and asked him, "Aren't we going back together for questioning?"
Zhai Mo pointed at the sky above his head and said: "It's late at night. I'm not dressed elegantly. How can I go out to meet people? It won't be too late to wash and change clothes tomorrow."
He asked someone to "carry" the person away. After he saw no more carriages or horses under the eaves, he turned around and went back to the study.
Light the lamp, grind the ink, and concentrate on writing the letter.
Soon after, a letter "reporting safety" was sent to the post station by a servant and then to Xu Mansion in the capital.
Under the quiet eaves, Zhai Mo looked at the crabapple tree in the yard, with a bright light in his eyes.
The storm is coming.
How could such a small Dengzhou be immune to the storm?
The sun sets and the moon rises, and the shadows of the trees dim.
Outside the main gate of a wealthy family with a plaque hanging high, a slender figure with long wavy hair stood there upright.
Tu Huan opened the thermos and drank some warm water. When she closed it, she saw a luxurious carriage coming from the entrance of the alley. With a loud shout from the coachman in front, the wide carriage stopped steadily at the foot of the stone steps.
Tu Huan raised her eyebrows and saw a servant following the car quickly running up the steps, brushing past her and slamming the door knocker on the gate.
Tu Huan was also quite curious. She shook the thermos cup in her hand lightly, and it disappeared instantly and was put back into her system backpack.
"Open the door! Open the door! The young master is injured!"
Tu Huan:?
On the carriage behind him, he saw a man being carried up on a board.
The middle door inside was quickly opened, and a group of people hurriedly carried the unconscious person in.
After a tour around the Yu Mansion and having a general understanding of the situation, Tu Huan was about to leave the Yu family and go to Xie Yuchuan, but she ran into the eldest son of the Yu family who returned home injured. Curiosity got the better of her and she stopped.
