Xu Pingsheng was a little stunned. He didn't expect that Lu Anan would go in person.
He was a little stunned, but after a moment, he retracted the surprise in his eyes.
"I understand the princess and the prince's concerns about Zhao Qianshou, but the Manhe army is over there..."
Lu Anan didn't care at all. She was holding the good things given by Xiwen in her hands.
Not to mention Uriel, even if he really brought the Manhe army here, he would never come back.
Lu Anan made up his mind to go there in person.
Xu Pingsheng’s persuasion was fruitless and he could only look at Chu Jinshen.
"If An An wants to go and have some fun, then go ahead."
Xu Pingsheng's expression changed slightly. Play... just play?
The prince really doesn't take Man He seriously, does he?!
Lu Anan raised the corners of her lips and looked at the change in Xu Pingsheng's expression with satisfaction.
It seems that their Lord Xu is not so calm after all.
"Master Xu, I heard that you have made your choice?"
Only then did Xu Pingsheng restrain himself a little, his wide sleeves fluttering as he bowed respectfully.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to my Master."
No longer the prince or princess, but the master's wife.
Chu Jinshen naturally heard the hidden meaning in his words.
"Get up."
Lu Anan also smiled: "Master Xu, we are now on the same boat."
"You have to think carefully. Ah Shen and I will fight to the death with the new emperor."
The smile on Lu Anan's face did not reach her eyes.
His tone was full of seriousness.
"I have figured it out. The capital is not as good as Yuezhou."
Lu Anan was satisfied and she stood up straight.
"Master Xu is smart. When the time comes, Sicheng will trouble Master Xu."
Xu Pingsheng lowered his eyes: "Yes, ma'am, please rest assured."
He could see that from beginning to end, the one who had been in the dominant position was never Chu Jinshen, but the delicate lady in front of him.
Xu Pingsheng naturally understood that only when the lady was happy could the master be happy.
"A Shen, I'll take the others over first."
Zhao Er is trapped in the enemy camp and cannot waste too much time now.
Lu Anan gave Chu Jinshen a soothing look.
"Don't worry, Ah Shen, I will definitely come back safely."
Wang Wu also went with Lu Anan.
The rest only brought two or three good players.
Xu Pingsheng was a little worried.
"Madam only brought these few people..."
Lu Anan waved her hand: "Too many people will easily alert the enemy."
It’s not about the number of people you lead, but the quality of them.
She jumped on the horse, looking heroic, and raised her eyebrows at Chu Jinshen.
"A Shen, wait for me to come back."
Chu Jinshen stood still, his brows softening when he heard the words.
"Be careful An An."
Lu Anan pulled the reins and waved his hand.
Although Lu Anan has not been learning horse riding for a long time, he is already very good at it.
Chu Jinshen watched her leaving until she was out of sight, then he turned around.
"I heard that some of the wealthy people in the city are not very peaceful?"
Chu Jinshen seemed like a different person, his voice full of coldness.
Xu Pingsheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded in response.
"yes."
Chu Jinshen raised his eyes and looked forward.
"It seems that the previous lessons were not enough."
He said this and walked forward: "Now... let's go meet them."
Xu Pingsheng responded.
"Yes, Master."
Chu Jinshen paused.
"By the way, Wu Quan might be gone in two days. Get ready and set off for Sicheng."
Xu Pingsheng was stunned for a moment.
"This position of Sicheng County Magistrate was originally yours."
After Chu Jinshen finished speaking, he continued to walk forward. Only Xu Pingsheng stopped for a moment before following him.
He inexplicably felt that all his luck in this life had been used up at this moment.
After all, the master and his wife seem to be more cunning than the other.
Only such a person is worthy of his submission.
As for capturing some wealthy people, Xu Pingsheng originally planned to play the long game and catch big fish.
He also performed such a scene with Zhao Er, Wang Wu and others.
Unexpectedly, those gentry became even more convinced of Xu Pingsheng and talked to him a lot.
That year, Yuezhou fell into the hands of Manhe.
Thirty thousand Yuezhou soldiers were buried alive.
The Yue family even sacrificed their lives to the city.
Man He was very angry because he couldn't find any living members of the Yue family.
Unexpectedly, these gentry came up with an idea.
The Yue family has been in Yuezhou for so many years, and some of their in-laws are still alive.
So... these gentry, without hesitation, showed Man He the way.
Anyone who has been connected to the Yue family through generations is considered to be of the Yue family bloodline.
For a while, many innocent people were involved.
Even the gentry made up a lot of rumors in order to please Manhe.
Xu Pingsheng listened to them treating this matter as a joke and honestly felt that Chu Jinshen had indeed been soft-handed.
However, what he didn't expect was that when the Manhe army arrived at the city, Chu Jinshen could only keep them under guard for the time being.
Unexpectedly, he was poisoned and sent directly back to the capital.
It was too late.
However, it is conceivable that if the Yue family had not offered sacrifices to the city, they would have suffered an unknown amount of humiliation.
The wealthy are now in their respective homes.
However, Xu Pingsheng arranged people, ostensibly to protect their comfort, but in fact to prevent them from escaping.
However, these wealthy people didn't care at all, and even lived very freely in the mansion.
When he heard the news outside that Lord Xu had arrived, the old man who was playing hide-and-seek with his concubine in the garden took off the veil on his face.
"Master, Lord Xu has arrived in the main hall."
The old man said happily: "Go and prepare some good tea, I'll be right there!"
"yes!"
Chu Jinshen was sitting in a high position. Some servants had never seen Xu Pingsheng before and mistook Chu Jinshen for Xu Pingsheng.
But Chu Jinshen didn't say it out loud.
Instead, Xu Pingsheng sat down at the bottom seat skillfully.
After the servant left, Chu Jinshen looked at the tea in front of him.
"Fuzhou tea costs at least two taels of silver for a cup like this."
Chu Jinshen said this out of the blue, and Xu Pingsheng immediately understood what he meant.
Along the way, the people on the street were dressed in rags.
His face looked a little dull and yellow, and it was obvious that he was not full.
Under such circumstances, the reason why this wealthy man could still use such tea is unknown.
"Your Majesty."
Just as Xu Pingsheng was about to speak, footsteps were suddenly heard outside the house.
There is also the laughter of the wealthy Mr. Zhao.
"I was wondering why the birds in your house are chirping so happily today. It turns out an honored guest has arrived. I'm sorry for not welcoming you. I'm sorry for not welcoming you!"
Mr. Zhao's voice came before he arrived.
Chu Jinshen looked towards the door with a half-smile in his eyes.
But Xu Pingsheng frowned, his eyes full of murderous intent.
As Mr. Zhao walked in, the first person he saw was Xu Pingsheng sitting next to him.
He hurried over to greet him.
"Master Xu, Master Xu!"
Mr. Zhao shouted twice, and only when he walked to Xu Pingsheng's side did he realize something was wrong.
According to Lord Xu's ability, he should be sitting at the top, so how come he is sitting in this position?
Mr. Zhao slowly shifted his gaze to the side.
