That night, Chu Mo and Xu Fufu did not go back to Fan's Mansion, but found a small tavern at random, and the two brothers drank all night.
Many people saw Xu Fufu's distressed look bleeding from the corners of his eyes.
Early the next morning, the people in Yanhuang City were stunned by several unexpected news.
"The tenth son of the Xu family, I don't know what he did wrong and angered the head of the family... His grandfather, Xu Zhongliang, the chief assistant of the cabinet, was directly kicked out of the house, and the line has been drawn from now on!"
"Xu Zhongliang suddenly came to the north of the city to inspect, and all the followers didn't know why..."
"Master Shoufu entered a small courtyard and called a gentle woman in her thirties a younger sister!"
"Master Shoufu told the people around him that this woman is a distant relative of the Xu family. She has been doing business in Daqi and has lost contact for many years. Now I am very happy to hear about my little sister."
"Chu Mo officially announced that Liu Meier, the owner of Taotie Building, is his righteous sister! He is the king of Chu, and his righteous sister... is naturally a princess!"
"The Taotie Tower suddenly announced that it is for sale, and the price is half the normal market price... unexpectedly!"
"Xu Fufu, who was kicked out of the house, said that he will get married soon..."
The news one by one is dizzying.
But everyone has a feeling that the mountain is about to come and the wind is full.
The Xu family, the number one official family in the dynasty, has always been calm. Why did so many things suddenly break out
Fan Mansion.
At this moment, Mr. Fan Wudi was walking back and forth in the mansion, quite anxious.
Sui Hongru had just gone out, and was also confused by these news, and wanted to figure out what happened in the first place.
The entire Fan Mansion was quiet.
After Fan Wudi walked around the room for a while, he finally opened the door, frowned, and murmured: "This little thing... which song is it singing? Why did it suddenly... make so many things? That child Fufu has been implicated?"
Just as they were talking, Chu Mo and Xu Fufu entered the house one after the other.
Fan Wudi saw that although the two were in high spirits, they smelled of alcohol, so they frowned immediately.
"Grandpa, don't say anything, just listen to me." After a little bit of luck, Chu Mo melted away all the alcohol on his body, then looked at his grandfather and said, "Da Xia, we can't stay any longer."
"Ah?" The corner of the old man's mouth twitched, and he looked at Chu Mo: "Say it again?"
"That's it..." Chu Mo basically told his grandfather about the conversation he had with Xu Zhongliang last night.
Although the old man is considered shrewd, he is not proficient in such matters related to government affairs. He frowned and looked at Chu Mo: "Didn't Mr. Shoufu say anything? He just expressed the importance of the royal family and the court. It's just what some of you think about you..."
"It's just an opinion?" Chu Mo laughed, shook his head and said, "Grandpa, unless we directly rebel now, go to the palace, and kill the emperor, otherwise, Da Xia... has no place for us anymore." ! Instead of continuing to wait here, it is better to leave early. In this way, the emperor can feel at ease... "
"Why?" Fan Wudi couldn't help but took two steps back, and asked with a sad expression, "What did we do wrong?"
Xu Fufu was on the sidelines, also trying to get rid of his drunkenness. He was drunk just now, and that was for others to see. The two brothers drank all night, and the things that should be discussed have already been discussed. Xu Fufu also finally understood Grandpa's difficulties.
Deep down in Xu Zhongliang's heart, he is quite optimistic about Chu Mo!
That is to say, even if Chu Mo really wants to rebel and take over Daxia's world, he is optimistic about it!
Otherwise, he would definitely not be able to find that kind of flimsy excuse to drive Xu Fufu out directly.
As a veteran minister for many years, Xu Zhongliang knew very well in his heart that it was almost impossible for the emperor to make changes.
Although the current emperor is talented, he is also broad-minded... From his various canonizations to Chu Mo, it can be felt that he is not the kind of narrow-minded emperor who dare not award meritorious ministers.
However, his biggest shortcoming is that he is suspicious!
Others don't know, but Xu Zhongliang knows best. The emperor can't even trust his own sons, let alone outsiders.
Xia Jing was suddenly kicked out from the position of chief assistant in the cabinet, why? Was he really implicated by his son? Actually that was just an excuse.
The reason why Xu Zhongliang still ran to the north of the city was that Long Qiushui of Xuancheng was his younger sister, which was actually a kind of statement to the emperor.
At the same time, endorse Chu Mo!
Once Chu Mo does something rebellious in the future, Xu Zhongliang... will definitely be implicated, because he is Grandma Chu Mo's brother!
To have such a relationship means to be in Emperor An's heart.
The things involved here are too complicated!
In fact, the best way is for Xu Zhongliang to directly expel Xu Fufu from the Xu family, draw a clear line, and not have any contact with Chu Mo.
But Xu Zhongliang still did it.
From this point, Xu Fufu also understood that his grandfather is still the responsible person! Still his biggest idol!
"Grandpa Fan, in fact, you have done nothing wrong. What is wrong is that your contributions are too great, which makes the emperor feel uneasy and the officials feel jealous, that's all." Xu Fufu said from the side.
"That's all?" Fan Wudi couldn't believe it.
Xu Fufu nodded: "Yes, that's all!"
Fan Wudi murmured: "Even if you are uneasy, even if you are jealous... But now it is the time of war after all, aren't you afraid that this will disturb the morale of the army?"
Chu Mo said from the side: "Grandpa... besides the army you brought, which legion's morale will be disturbed by us?"
Fan Wudi was at a loss for words for a while.
In fact, the old man understood a little bit in his heart, but he didn't think so thoroughly, and now he was finally enlightened by the two juniors who spoke to each other.
In the end, the old general who had fought all his life and had never bent over squatted at the door of his house with a dazed expression on his face.
He lowered his head and said nothing.
Chu Mo felt distressed when he saw it, and said softly, "Grandpa, let's go, in fact, it's also good to leave. Before everyone's face is broken, if you leave, you will leave."
Fan Wudi nodded lightly: "I listen to you, then let's go."
In fact, Fan Wudi was full of self-blame at the moment. In his opinion, if he hadn't wanted to give Long Qiushui an identity, Chu Mo would not have asked Xu Zhongliang. Then, these series of things will not happen.
Chu Mo looked at his spiritless grandfather, and said, "This matter... will break out sooner or later. Grandpa Xu Shoufu's side... In fact, it is just to let this contradiction manifest, and then control the situation to a minimum. If this If the conflict was between me and the emperor, it would not be the result now!"
"This is the best result!" Xu Fufu muttered beside him.
"I understand, but I can't figure it out..." The old man sighed heavily.
