Chapter 77: Delivering the Message

The next two or three days were very peaceful.

Shen Xiao changed Duanmu Bufan's dressing and performed acupuncture every day. Then Shen Xiao went to Ji's Manor to perform acupuncture on Ji Chuyan.

No one from Duanmu Bufan's side came to continue the pursuit. After all, there were many people from the Cao Gang watching near Shen's house.

Shen Xiao didn't need to find Caobang. The people from Caobang smelled the smell and came to keep an eye on Duanmu Bufan.

"The strength of these people is not weak. They are enough for temporary protection!"

Shen Xiao was enjoying tea without anything, and Duanmu Bufan, who had recovered a lot, made some comments to the people in Caobang.

During these two days, Shen Xiao did not interfere in Duanmu Bufan's affairs and just conducted business according to his own plan.

As for Duanmu Bufan's safety, Shen Xiao could only say that he should give Duanmu Bufan a place to live.

"The people in Caogang are just watching the fun. It seems that there are people above Yongzhou who don't want to deal with you!"

Shen Xiao said lightly, Duanmu Bufan is also a smart man, why bother with Shen Xiao here.

What Duanmu Bufan said was really meaningless. Given the current situation, it would be difficult to really help Duanmu Bufan if he was just a Caobang.

Someone from the top of Yongzhou took action to temporarily stabilize the situation. Duanmu Bufan wanted Shen Xiao to help.

But Shen Xiao and Duanmu Bufan have completely different thoughts. Shen Xiao doesn't interfere too much, or Duanmu Bufan can't give Shen Xiao much.

Duanmu Bufan is not the commander, he is just the commander's son. There is no need for Shen Xiao to invest too much in Duanmu Bufan at once.

"And if nothing else, you are not in a hurry to go back, are you using yourself as bait?"

After thinking for a moment, Shen Xiao asked Duanmu Bufan, "If you stay here with Shen Xiao, Duanmu Bufan obviously has other plans."

If nothing else, according to Shen Xiao's estimation, this was Duanmu Bufan's deliberate move.

Although Shen Xiao's place is not a big place, Duanmu Bufan can't get close to it if Duanmu Bufan doesn't die.

Duanmu Bufan has never gone back. He slowly investigates here, and he can always find secrets. When the time comes, the person behind the scenes is afraid of being discovered, so he will take action directly!

Shen Xiao's home is the battlefield chosen by Duanmu Bufan. After all, if Duanmu Bufan doesn't go back, problems will always be found above.

"It can be understood that this may be the best choice."

"Don't worry, I will pay for all the Shen family's losses this time and give you a bigger house."

Duanmu Bufan nodded. After Shen Xiao said this, Duanmu Bufan had nothing to hide. Duanmu Bufan did not refute Shen Xiao's statement.

In other words, the matter has come to this, and Shen Xiao's Shen family has become the core of this storm.

Duanmu Bufan did not refute Shen Xiao's speculation, because Shen Xiao was right. There would be no big problem with Duanmu Bufan and Shen Xiao's cooperation this time.

But both Duanmu Bufan and Shen Xiao actually wanted to get more benefits.

Duanmu Bufan wanted to use Shen Xiao to solve the secret trouble in one step, but if Duanmu Bufan did this, Shen Xiao's safety might not be guaranteed.

"If that's the case, then it's all up to you!"

"If you need me to take action, it will cost you 20,000 taels of silver at a time."

Shen Xiao nodded, Duanmu Bufan had said so. In fact, Shen Xiao had nothing to say. Duanmu Bufan wanted to fish with a straight hook and was confident enough. Of course, Shen Xiao supported Duanmu Bufan.

After all, to Shen Xiao, it doesn't matter if Duanmu Bufan wants to do this, as long as it doesn't cause trouble to Shen Xiao.

Duanmu Bufan was a smart man and could not put himself in danger. Shen Xiao was just watching a show.

Anyway, Duanmu Bufan was stirring up trouble in Yongzhou, and it wasn't Shen Xiao who was at the forefront, and Duanmu Bufan needed help. If Shen Xiao took action, it would cost him 20,000 taels of silver at a time.

“The price is very high, but I think it’s worth it!”

Duanmu Bufan was not surprised. Shen Xiao was a smart man, so he would make such a decision.

Since Duanmu Bufan was involved, Shen Xiao knew that taking action was unavoidable, so it was best for Duanmu Bufan and Shen Xiao to cooperate.

Shen Xiao couldn't wait until later to ask for favors from Duanmu Bufan. Before, Duanmu Bufan, Shen Xiao, said it was a last favor. Now that Duanmu Bufan needs Shen Xiao's hand, the price is naturally different.

Duanmu Bufan felt it was worth it. Now he could get Shen Xiao to stand up for 20,000 taels of silver at a time. Although it looked like a lot, Duanmu Bufan understood that it was actually not much.

"If Shen Xiao is willing to take action, he can find a way to directly win over the Ji family!"

"Nowadays, no one in Yongzhou dares to deal with me directly. This is not a bad thing. I just wait for the people from the capital to come."

Thinking of this, Duanmu Bufan naturally wanted to win over Shen Xiao. After all, Duanmu Bufan had no one he could trust except Shen Xiao.

Even if Duanmu Bufan had some people to help him, those people would act according to the prevailing circumstances and could not necessarily be trusted.

Now that the matter is over, Shen Xiao can negotiate terms with Duanmu Bufan, so that there won't be any conflicts between the two parties.

Shen Xiao and Duanmu Bufan have the simplest relationship of interest, and Shen Xiao needs help from Duanmu Bufan if he has something to do!

In this way, Shen Xiao deserves Duanmu Bufan's trust, so Duanmu Bufan will give Shen Xiao benefits.

What Duanmu Bufan wants now is not just Shen Xiao's help, but most importantly, Duanmu Bufan needs the power behind Shen Xiao.

"If you want to use all means to take action, you can even cooperate with me directly. It seems that you are really ready!"

Shen Xiao knew very well why Duanmu Bufan was so anxious, because there were really not many opportunities left for Duanmu Bufan.

Due to the influence of the Ji family on this matter and the impact on the Qinglong Order, Duanmu Bufan naturally had to think of enough ways to resist the pressure from everywhere in Yongzhou.

At this moment, Shen Xiao has the advantage and can provide help to Duanmu Bufan. This is on the one hand. On the other hand, it is Shen Xiao's medical book and Duanmu Bufan's great trust in Shen Xiao.

Putting all these together, it is actually understandable that Duanmu Bufan wants to strategize in Yongzhou.

After all, when Duanmu Bufan returns to the capital, he will want to settle the accounts afterwards, but it is not that easy. If he is not careful, it will bring threats to himself.

"I just hope that you can also think of ways to influence the court situation, such as Cuiyue Tower!"

Duanmu Bufan made a request to Shen Xiao, that is, to start from Cuiyue Tower. Now Duanmu Bufan hopes that Shen Xiao will come forward and send some news through the channels of Cuiyue Tower.

Although Duanmu Bufan is a member of the Qinglong Order and Cuiyue Tower is from another force, it may not be appropriate to do so.

But Shen Xiao has this channel, and Duanmu Bufan also hopes that the news will be leaked directly, instead of saying that he has been in trouble.

Continuing to stay in Yongzhou is not a good thing, but will lead to greater threats.
