Chapter 568: Old Friend
Xue Changfeng glanced at the scholar's back and ran quickly. There was no dead person unless it was haunted in broad daylight.
"Old Xiao, what do you mean?"
Xiao Meng snorted coldly, "This scholar is called Fang Taining, and he was also the fourth prince dug out from the collapsed ruins two days ago."
"So what?" Xue Changfeng was still puzzled.
Xiao Meng pointed to the ruins in front of him and asked Xue Changfeng to see, "This rain is too heavy. Now it is still a puddle below. When the water level is high, it can overflow the ankles where we are standing now."
Xue Changfeng looked forward and saw that the Jiangnan Mansion was disrepair for a long time, and in a low-lying place, a heavy rain collapsed it, and it immediately became a vast ocean.
Such a house should not have been arranged for the envoys to move into, and more than ten lives were gone.
Xue Changfeng sighed, and felt something was wrong, "What do you mean is that a person is buried under the ground and he will drown if he is not smashed to death. It is impossible to be rescued alive?"
Xiao Meng rolled his eyes, "Man is not a fish. He can breathe under the water, so of course he can't survive, especially after the collapse of the situation."
Xue Changfeng's mind changed again and said, "I understand. Fang Taining should have died, but he is alive, so this is a miracle, a great miracle! Hey, it's not right, then why are you beating someone?"
This time Yan Mu couldn't help rolling his eyes, "He means someone exchanged a living person for a dead person."
"ah?"
"I replaced the dug out corpse with Fang Taining, and used this to create momentum and make a contribution to myself."
Xiao Meng looked at Yan Mu at this time. At the same time, the court officials naturally knew him, but they seemed to have no good feelings for him. "Seventh Prince, what a coincidence, are you here to let the wind out?"
"What a coincidence? I specially pulled the Seventh Prince to find you to drink." Xue Changfeng said.
"Water drinking is called interest, and those who are not like each other are called suffering. I will rush to Youzhou tomorrow and have to rest tonight and I will not suffer this." Xiao Meng also glanced at Yan Mu.
But Yan Mu was looking at the ruins of the Jiangnan Mansion, so he didn't see Xiao Meng's unfriendly eyes.
"We are here to practice it for you!" Xue Changfeng said.
"No need."
"Stop talking, hurry up and go to your house to have a drink!"
"You practice it for me and go to my house to drink?"
Xue Changfeng smiled and said, "By the way, let my sister-in-law make that sauce-sauce old duck. I'm so hungry."
Regardless of whether Xiao Meng was happy or not, Xue Changfeng pulled him out and walked out, and did not forget to call Yan Mu.
Yan Mu came back to his senses and followed them out.
"General Xiao is so sure, must he know what he knows?"
Xiao Meng curled his lips, "Don't worry about the Seventh Prince."
"Isn't it just a blind man?"
When Xiao Meng heard this, he said angrily: "Who do you think I, Xiao Meng, can you talk about such a big thing? I know this Fang Taining. It was half a month ago, when I was having dinner in a noodle restaurant, I happened to meet him and another disciple named Liu Chang. I was eating alone at that time, and I felt bored. I heard that they were discussing knowledge, so I made a shameless table with them and ordered wine and food. After drinking a few cups, I realized that both of them were from Nanzhou and lived in Jiangnan Mansion. They said that the Jiangnan Mansion was dilapidated and could not live in. Fang Taining said that he rented a small yard and moved in tonight. He also invited Liu Chang to go with him, but Liu Chang said that he had no money to rent a house, and eating outside was also a expense, so he still wanted to live in Jiangnan Mansion."
Xue Changfeng figured it out, "So Fang Taining had moved out before the collapse of Jiangnan Mansion, and he was not pressed down."
"Yes, I specifically checked the identity of the deceased in this accident, and there was no Liu Chang among the nine people."
"So Fang Taining replaced Liu Chang!"
"It must be like this."
When Xue Changfeng heard this, he couldn't help scratching his head, "But such a remark doesn't seem to be ironclad."
"So I found Fang Taining and took him to the ruins of Jiangnan Mansion, intending to make him feel guilty when he looked at the ruins, and admit it. As a result, the bastard gritted his teeth and refused to admit it. I was so angry that I kicked him."
The collapse of the Jiangnan Mansion has passed, and the autumn examination will be held tomorrow. The fourth prince Qin Shengrui has gained fame and has also taken charge of the autumn examination. Even if they report this to the emperor, the emperor will not pursue it. After all, the fourth prince just used some tricks, but comforted the candidate who was taking the exam and solved a big problem.
Xue Changfeng sighed, "Where is Liu Chang's body?"
"I don't know if it was dug out or it had been dealt with." Xiao Meng said a little discouraged.
"The person is dead, forget it."
"So what if it doesn't count? He is a prince, or just a misunderstanding. It's probably not wrong in the eyes of the emperor."
"Shh, don't talk nonsense, be careful of ears."
"You are stupid, your ears are right next to us. You can hear them even if you speak in a low voice."
Xue Changfeng looked to the side and saw Yan Mu, knowing that Xiao Meng was talking about him, and hurriedly said, "The Seventh Prince is not that kind of person."
"Ha, I really don't like you just look at people."
"Old Xiao, it's too much!"
Xue Changfeng grabbed Yan Mu with his left hand and Xiao Meng with his right hand, "Although the Seventh Prince is a little treacherous, he is still a good person. Although General Xiao has become a little reckless and has a little irritable temper, he is also a person worthy of close friends."
As soon as these words were said, Yan Mu and Xiao Meng shook Xue Changfeng's hand at the same time, and offended two people in one sentence. It was indeed a brainless person. But no matter what, Xue Changfeng still pulled Yan Mu to Xiao Meng's house to drink.
"Seventh Prince, look at Xiao Meng, he is not good-looking and has a bad temper, but he married a beautiful lady. Not only is she beautiful, but she also has a great skill in cooking. Xiao Meng was quite thin in the past, but now she has become a big bear. It can be seen that his sister-in-law cooks so deliciously."
As soon as the words were finished, the door of Xiao's house in front opened and a little boy with a head and a treacherous head ran out. He was about six or seven years old, wearing a short-shot and running out like a life-long escape. A woman in a long cloud purple wool came out, with an apron wrapped around her head and a cloth scarf, dressed very neatly.
She held a stick as thick as a wrist in her hand, looked around and chased after the little boy when she saw it.
"Boy! You dare to steal my mother's golden hairpin. I have to break your legs today!"
The little boy ran away desperately, and the woman chased after him desperately.
When the little boy saw Xiao Meng, he shouted: "Dad, help!"
When Xiao Meng saw this, he did not go forward to help, but subconsciously took two steps back.
"Dad! You are the only son!" the little boy shouted.
"But I only have one life!"
"Can you be like a man?"
"Overyone is afraid of his wife!"
The little boy couldn't run away, so he had to hide behind Xue Changfeng and Yan Mu next to him. He thought he was a guest and he had to give face.
"Uncle Xue, save me!"
"This..." Xue Changfeng was also a little scared when he saw the woman, but the woman was originally angry. When she ran over to see Yan Mu, she was stunned for a moment, then she changed into a smile, her eyes were seductive, and her waist twisted and her hips were swayed.
"Mr. I didn't expect that we would see you again in my lifetime."
Yan Mu frowned, "We know each other?"
