Chapter 463: Slowly Plan
Old Lady Xu was distressed, but she could do nothing.
In life, many times and many things are better to see through than to speak out.
After Prince Taiping's death, the Xu family, with three dukes in one family, became a prominent family. But from that time on, Old Lady Xu understood the Xu family's position.
She was the adopted daughter of Emperor Taizu and had Prince Taiping as her adoptive father.
Her status was certainly high, but she knew her own business. Everything she had came from Emperor Taizu, or in other words, from the royal family.
Since the Xu Mansion was defined as a shield by her adoptive father, she, as an adopted daughter, could only stick to it.
As for the people of the Xu Mansion, as long as they can always understand their own position, the Xu Mansion will not fall as long as the Tang Dynasty is not destroyed.
In this way, Old Lady Xu felt that she had achieved a balance between owing each other nothing.
He was worthy of both the upbringing of Emperor Taizu and the teaching and care of Prince Taiping.
"Old lady, please don't think too much!"
"You've worked so hard for this mansion, but who among those people truly treats you well?"
The nanny guarding Old Madam Xu spoke in a low voice.
Old Lady Xu forced a smile and said, "It doesn't matter how they treat me. In my life, I've never been vague about right and wrong."
"But, well, never mind... let them be!"
Old Lady Xu waved her hand and said, "You can go down too. I need to sleep for a while!"
"yes!"
The nanny immediately retreated.
As the nanny left, Old Lady Xu's room quickly became quiet.
But not long after, there was suddenly one more person in the room.
"Greetings, Your Highness!"
The man half-knelt on the ground and spoke softly.
"Tell me, how is it?"
"Return to Your Highness, we failed!"
The visitor whispered, "Xu Yuanxi discovered the Heavenly Silkworm Silk and avoided the trap. Later, we tried to lure the three Xu brothers into the trap, but it didn't work."
"Afterwards, Ye Liu and Ye Qi accidentally fell into the water while evacuating and died!"
"Dead?"
Old Lady Xu narrowed her eyes and asked, "How did he die?"
"drowning!"
The person who came had an embarrassed expression.
Nightingale's top executioners are all masters, and their swimming skills are also top-notch.
But this time, Ye Liu and Ye Qi really fell into the water and drowned.
Old Lady Xu's expression gradually changed, and she finally laughed and said, "Sure enough, it's great luck that has blessed me!"
“Every misfortune turns into good fortune, and anyone who is hostile to them will encounter bad luck and misfortune.”
"I used a series of strategies, each linked together, and finally delivered a fatal blow, but none of them worked."
"By the way, did something go wrong with the follow-up plan?"
After expressing her feelings, Old Lady Xu cast a sharp gaze on the face of the person half-kneeling on the ground.
"Your Highness, there seems to be no problem with the subsequent plan."
"Ye Er has entered Anshun County and contacted Bai Jiu!"
"very good!"
Old Lady Xu nodded slightly. "Since the plan of a quick kill doesn't work, then we should take it slow. Since Bai Jiu already has a connection with Xu Yuanxu, let him take advantage of it."
"Send a message to Ye Er, and have him tell Bai Jiu that as long as he accomplishes this, I promise that he will have nothing to do with Ye Ying from now on."
"yes!"
The visitor responded respectfully and quickly disappeared from the room.
From the time he came to the time he left, no one in the huge Xu Mansion noticed.
…
Lingshui Village, Old Xu’s home.
A visitor came, and it was Xu Laosan, the top scholar in Xiangyi Prefecture.
"Dad, it's him!"
While Xu San was entertaining the visitors, Xu Er was secretly reporting to Old Master Xu, "The man who spoke to the escaped thief is this guy, and that voice is the same guy. He's not running away!"
“That’s a bit interesting!”
After listening to Xu Laoer's report, Mr. Xu couldn't help but laugh.
In the past few days, the old man thought over and over again about the series of events that happened when they returned from the capital, and finally determined that this was a chain of schemes.
Even the trap and assassination that Xu Laoer and his companions encountered on their way back were part of this series of schemes.
If Xu Laoer had not had good eyesight and luck, and if he had not been careful enough at the time, how could he have avoided the last round of assassination?
As for the fact that the two killers finally fell into the Jiuqu River and drowned, it was too mysterious. Even with Mr. Xu's brain, he couldn't understand how these people died so easily.
Old Master Xu went to see the two bodies. Their well-proportioned bones and solid muscles showed that they were martial artists. How could such people die from slipping down the stairs and falling into the water?
However, the most unlikely thing actually happened.
Unable to figure out the key, Mr. Xu had no choice but to give up.
But now, the other party has come to me again. Is he planning to take it slow? Well, let's take it slow!
Old Master Xu smiled like a fox again.
"Dad, do you want to arrest this guy?"
"Scratch your head!"
Old Master Xu slapped Old Second Xu on the head. "He's here to visit Old Third, and a visitor is a guest. Besides, what evidence do you have to arrest him?"
"If you don't want to catch me, then don't catch me. Dad, hitting people is wrong!"
Xu Laoer looked at his father seriously.
When he saw his father raise his hand again, Xu Lao Er quickly shouted, "That's what my little sister said!"
"Oh, it was Fubao who said that. Why did she say that?"
Old Master Xu stopped his hand midway and looked at his second son with a smile.
It is wrong to hit people!
Mr. Xu naturally understood this principle.
He was just curious. How could his daughter, who always liked to wave her fists, say something like this?
"Well, you should ask my little sister. How would I know why she said that?"
Xu Laoer said he was completely unaware of the matter.
Old Master Xu was so angry. Why couldn't his stupid son understand what he was saying?
Forget it, let’s just beat him up!
Unfortunately, before Xu Laoer could raise his hand again, he had already run away.
"What are you running for, little brat?"
"Dad, you're ready to beat me, why shouldn't I run away?"
"I went to the mountains!"
To avoid being beaten by his father, Xu Laoer grabbed the bow and arrow and two guns that were placed by the door and rushed out of the house. He had been home for so many days and he hadn't even gone into the mountains to get some game to taste.
Xu Laoer ran very fast and met Fubao who was leading Dabao and Erbao back on the way.
"Second brother, what are you doing?"
"Second Uncle!"
"father!"
Dabao and Erbao also shouted when they saw Xu Laoer.
"I'm going to the mountains and get you some game!"
"Then you should go early and come back early!"
When Fubao heard his second brother say this, he waved his hand decisively.
As for game, the more the better.
But look at the sky, it seems like it's going to rain!
This autumn rain is really colder with each passing day.
"Don't worry, it's fast!"
As he spoke, Xu Laoer was already walking very fast and soon disappeared.
