"Well, then let's send our Lord Nan off at the East City Gate in three days." Xu Tianze made the decision directly.
"Aze, how can you be sure that Nan Xunjie will leave from the east gate?" Song Yu was a little confused.
There are people from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion at the four gates of Shangjing City. As far as he knows, Nan Xunjie has never entered or exited from the east gate.
"You will know why in three days." Xu Tianze did not explain clearly, but kept it a secret.
Time passed in a flash, and soon it was three days later. Xu Tianze and others were standing at the Shili Pavilion, watching a very low-key carriage driving over.
Xu Tianze nodded at Long Muse, Long Muse waved his hand, and Long Yi and Long Er stepped forward to stop the carriage.
"Everyone says he is returning home in glory. Isn't the Marquis too low-key?" Xu Tianze said loudly, then turned around and sat on the chair.
Just based on the sound just now, he had used up some of his true energy. He believed that Nan Xunjie would naturally come down to see him, so he just sat in the pavilion.
Seeing this, Long Musi and his companions also sat down and looked at the carriage that had been stopped.
There was no movement in the carriage for a long time. Finally, a sigh was heard from inside the carriage, and then the curtain was lifted.
"Lord Xu, are you really not going to let me go?" Nan Xunjie got off the carriage. His clothes had been changed into ordinary silk clothes.
Although silk is still not something that ordinary people can wear, compared to the expensive clothes embroidered with various exquisite dark patterns that Xu Tianze wore every time he saw Nan Xunjie before, it is already extremely ordinary.
Without the aura of an official holding great power, Nan Xunjie became an old man from an ordinary family with a slightly wealthy background.
"My lord, I am helping you. In the time it takes to have a cup of tea, there will be fewer assassins." Xu Tianze poured a cup of tea for Nan Xunjie and made a gesture of invitation.
"Hahahaha, Lord Xu is quite magnanimous." Nan Xunjie's eyes lit up when he heard Xu Tianze's words.
Of course he couldn't just wait to die. He had already arranged guards on the way out of the capital. When the assassin ambushed him, those guards and assassins would naturally take care of him directly.
If it weren't for Emperor Gan watching him closely, Nan Xunjie would have to wait a few more days before leaving the city.
Xu Tianze's words showed that he was willing to give him face and delay for a while, which would naturally be beneficial to Nan Xunjie.
Xu Tianze smiled and nodded, then began to drink tea with Long Musi and the others without asking anything else.
It was as if he really just came to see Nan Xunjie off. This behavior made Nan Xunjie feel a lot more comfortable. He had originally thought that there would be some price to pay for staying here.
He didn't expect that he had judged others by his own mean standards. With such an apologetic look, Nan Xunjie drank three cups of tea in a row, and then looked at the person in the pavilion with emotion.
Xu Tianze is considered a capable person. Most of the forces in the court are represented in this pavilion. If it weren't for the fact that the prince was so incompetent, he would have given up on him.
Perhaps, he would also let the prince get closer to Xu Tianze. After all, His Majesty still felt guilty about the Xu family's affairs, and he was unwilling and would not allow such a large force to gather around Xu Tianze.
The early mornings in late summer are exceptionally cold, but as the sun rises, the chill gradually turns into a hint of heat.
"While the weather is not yet too hot, it is time for me to set off. Lord Xu, I will take my leave now." Nan Xunjie stood up and bowed to Xu Tianze and the others, but his words only referred to Xu Tianze.
"Then I won't see you off, sir." Xu Tianze smiled, then bowed and said goodbye to Nan Xunjie.
I guess it has already started in Shangjing City, so it’s time for them to rush back to see the excitement.
After Nan Xunjie got on the carriage, he lifted the curtain, took out a gift box, handed it to the coachman, whispered a few words, and then got into the carriage.
After Nan Xunjie got into the carriage, the coachman handed the gift box in his hand to Long Yi, who was helping to lead the horse, and then drove away.
"Looks like there's an unexpected gain." The Second Prince and Long Musi waved their folding fans simultaneously.
But the difference is that the cool breeze blown by the second prince is for Xu Tianze, while Long Musi blows it for himself.
Noticing this difference, Long Musi paused for a moment, then pointed the fan at Xu Tianze without changing his expression.
"Your Highness, the coachman said that Lord Nan brought back some snacks from Die Zhai, saying that he wanted to give them to Lord Xu to try." Long Yi handed over the snack box in his hand with a strange expression.
The Second Prince couldn't help laughing when he heard what Long Yi said. Not to mention that Die Zhai was his, every time there was a new product, he would let Aze eat it first.
That is to say, Feng Yixuan, the previous signature shop of Diezhai, was also enough to disgust Aze. After all, Aze had failed several times in teahouses of the same brand.
When Song Yu, who was standing by, heard the name Diezhai, he naturally thought of the past. He touched his nose awkwardly for a moment, with a guilty look in his eyes.
Did the old man do it on purpose, or did he really have no other excuse?
"New pastries? Just open them and take a look." Xu Tianze didn't have much feeling about Die Zhai and Feng Yixiuan at the moment, so naturally he didn't care much about this.
As for Ajiang who was laughing secretly on the side, Xu Tianze would deal with him slowly when they returned. He had plenty of time to make Ajiang apologize and admit his mistake.
When Long Yi heard what Xu Tianze said, he put the snack box on the stone table without hesitation. After all, last time, the time before, and the time before, he did not follow Xu Tianze's request in time.
His master never treated him well, and he was even punished countless times for this kind of thing.
Long Er and Ma Zheng on the side looked at each other, with Noye's smile in their eyes. Long Yi's actions were faster than his brain. It seemed that he was afraid of being punished.
When the snack box was opened, there was indeed a letter placed right on top. Long picked it up and looked at his master.
Long Musi frowned when he saw this, and he shuddered for a moment, then stuffed the letter directly into Xu Tianze's hand and quickly stepped aside.
"How did you train Long Yi? Why did you make him so afraid of you?" Xu Tianze looked at Long Yi, who lowered his brows and looked obedient, in confusion, and then looked at Long Musi, who had a calm face, with some confusion.
He remembered that when he first met Long Yi, Long Yi was not like this. He did not expect that after not seeing him for a while, although Long Yi's appearance had not changed much, his subconscious movements and habits had changed a lot.
"Aze, you should first take a look at what the letter says." Long Musi spread his hands, indicating that he didn't read anything.
Just when Xu Tianze lowered his head to read the letter, he took the opportunity to give Long Yi a meaningful look, which scared Long Yi so much that his whole body trembled.
Seeing this, Ma Zheng and Long Er looked around and looked down at the ground, looking like they knew nothing.
Xu Tianze's attention was drawn directly to the content of the letter. At first, he had no expression on his face, then he sneered, and finally he looked at Long Muse and the second prince with ill intentions.
