In the study room of Fei's mansion, everyone greeted each other and divided the guest and host. Fei Hong was in the middle, Fei Cai was the second seat, Xu Jin took the right hand, and Fei Maoxian and Fei Maozhong brothers were the lower left hand. Fei Hong is 60 years old this year, but it seems to be more energetic than in the previous two years. This is probably the so-called "unofficial" lighter.

"Ziqian, this time you go back to your hometown, is the old patriarch of your Xujia Village still healthy?" Fei Hong asked cordially.

Xu Jin nodded: "He is very healthy. Although he is 86 years old, he is not hazy in his eyes or deaf in his ears. It is said that he can eat a big bowl of dry rice in one meal, and it is no problem for the village to chase chickens and dogs."

Fei Hong laughed and said, "Then you old patriarch is very capable. I don't know if you can live to his age as a teacher."

As soon as this was said, both Fei Maoxian and Fei Maozhong showed uneasiness, and Xu Jin hurriedly said, "Master Fei must have lived a hundred years of life."

Fei Hong smiled and changed the topic: "Ziqian went to the Ministry of War to hand over today? Have you ever seen the emperor?"

Xu Jin replied: "The delivery has been completed, and the procedures were handled by the Minister of War Wu, as for the emperor, I have seen them yesterday afternoon."

Fei Hong said lightly when he heard this. Fei Cai's qi cultivation skills were not as good as his brother Fei Hong. He couldn't help but ask first: "Hanlin's investigation into Ouyang De, has Ziqian been calculating?"

Fei Maoxian and Fei Maozhong couldn't help but look at Xu Jin nervously, scattering "big-character posters" all over the streets. The two brothers did not discuss with their elders. Now that the matter was revealed, they confessed to Fei Hong and Fei Cai, but they were naturally scolded.

Xu Jin frowned and said, "Things are a bit troublesome. I happened to meet Bi Chun when I entered the palace today..."

When Xu Jin recounted the incident, Fei Hong and Fei Cai's expressions became solemn, and the brothers Fei Maoxian and Fei Maozhong were even more scared and their faces were bloodless and trembled slightly.

It's no wonder they are so scared. If they just sing a "big-character poster", even if they are finally confessed by Ouyang De, they will offend Bi Chun at most. With Xu Jin and his father Fei Hong, Bi Chun can't do anything to them. However, once they are involved in rebellion, the nature will completely change. At that time, they are afraid that not only will their lives be lost, but they will also affect their family and friends.

"Oh, Ouyang Chongyi is really confused!" Fei Maozhong said anxiously, and Fei Maoxian was also indifferent.

Xu Jin comforted: "The people don't have to be nervous about receiving the people's offerings. The original poem has been burned by me. Bi Chun now has no physical evidence. In addition, he is temporarily scared by my words, so he may not cause trouble to the emperor. The most important thing now is that Ouyang Deneng will hold on. As long as he firmly refuses to admit that he has written an anti-poem, then the matter will be done."

The Fei brothers felt a little relieved when they heard this. I believe Ouyang De would understand the seriousness of the matter and it was absolutely impossible to admit that he had written an anti-poem.

Fei Hong sighed and said, "Ziqian, you have always been a mature and steadfast and do nothing, but this matter has been handled too much. You beat Bi Chun in public in the palace and burned the manuscript of poetry. This certainly made Bi Chun suffer a loss, but it also damaged your image. I am afraid that you will end up with a reputation of being arrogant and domineering.

Moreover, Bi Chun was just temporarily confused by your words. Once you wake up, you will definitely report the matter to the emperor. As the saying goes, it is better to offend gentlemen than villains. Bi Chun is not only the emperor's close servant, but also the confidant of Empress Wu. It is probably difficult to deal with when the wind blows beside Empress Wu."

Xu Jin smiled bitterly and said, "Students also understand this truth, but in the situation at that time, if the students do not destroy the original manuscript, they are afraid that things will be more troublesome. Once the emperor gets angry, Bi Chun will definitely take advantage of the issue and make a big move. I don't know how many people will fall to the ground, but I am afraid that the people will be able to escape the disaster if they are harmonious and don't want to escape."

Fei Maoxian and Fei Maozhong lowered their heads with pale faces.

Fei Cai nodded and said, "Brother, I think Ziqian handles this matter very well. A sinister villain like Bi Chun must be more ruthless than him, otherwise there is nothing he can do about him."

Fei Hong shook his head and said, "What is Bi Chun? He is just a temporary castration. The key is the emperor. The emperor is smart. Don't think that Ziqian is doing this cleanly, but in fact he has many flaws. As long as the eunuch guards are summoned, you will be clear. Of course, with the emperor's favor for Ziqian, even if he knows, he will pretend not to know, but he will inevitably not have any thoughts in his heart, which is very unfavorable to Ziqian."

Fei Cai was silent when he heard this!

Xu Jin said calmly: "Master Fei, please rest assured. The emperor can tolerate students in this small matter. Even if the emperor is really dissatisfied with the students, it is better than Minxian and Minsheng who are labeled as thieves."

Fei Maoxian and Fei Maozhong couldn't help but look grateful when they heard this and said ashamed: "Ziqian, we have implicated you."

Xu Jin smiled and said, "We are a family. We prosper and all the losses. Helping you is helping me. People don't have to see you."

The Fei brothers became even more ashamed when they heard this. Fei Cai stroked his beard with satisfaction. In fact, he was not very happy to marry his daughter Fei Jixiang to Xu Jin. Now Xu Jin is becoming more and more important, and he is even ranked as the king of a different surname. Now no one dares to laugh at the Fei family for marrying his two daughters to Xu Jin.

Of course, the size of the official position is second. The key is that Xu Jin has a good character and does not forget his roots. Ruyi and Jixiang are also very happy to marry into the Xu family, so Fei Cai is becoming more and more satisfied with Xu Jin's son-in-law.

"Ziqian, I feel wronged you in this matter." Fei Hong sighed.

Xu Jin smiled and said, "The student burned the manuscript of the poem and kicked the manuscript. In fact, it is not a loss at all. Bi Chun should be wronged."

Everyone couldn't help but laugh. Bi Chun was indeed quite unlucky. This castrated man has been very powerful recently and everyone retreated. Now there are only a few people who can defeat him in the court. Xu Jin is one of them, so he is considered a shady person when he meets Xu Jin.

"Ziqian, I plan to bring my family back to my hometown in Qianshan, Jiangxi after the New Year." Fei Hong suddenly said.

As soon as this said, Xu Jin was slightly surprised. Even the Fei Cai and the Fei brothers showed surprise. It was obvious that Fei Hong had not mentioned this matter to them, and maybe he had just started to make a decision.

"Why did Master Fei suddenly want to go back to Qianshan?" Xu Jin asked in confusion.

Fei Hong smiled and said, "It's not sudden. In fact, my army had this plan last year. It's just that Ziqian was still leading troops in the Western Regions to fight, so I couldn't rest assured. Now Ziqian, you have returned to Beijing in triumph. This happened again, so my army can't stay in the capital."

Fei Maoxian and Fei Maozhong couldn't help but lower their heads and blushed. Although they resigned from office in anger, they still wanted to find another opportunity to become an official. After all, they were only in their early thirties and were young and strong, so they naturally were unwilling to return to their hometown to live in vain.

Xu Jin frowned and said, "If Master Fei is worried about that matter, there is no need to do so. The students ask themselves that they can settle it. Moreover, Minsheng and Minsuo are still young, and they may be appointed by the emperor one day. Why should they go back to their hometown to waste their years?"

Fei Maoxian and Fei Maozhong looked at their father Fei Hong with hope, but the latter was unmoved and shook their heads and said, "Maoxian and Maozhong are not suitable for being officials in Beijing, so it is even more inappropriate at this time. It would be better to follow the teacher to return to their hometown and study for a few years, even if they make a little progress."

Fei Maoxian and Fei Maozhong couldn't help but lower their heads in disappointment.

Xu Jin pondered for a moment and stopped persuading him. Now that Zhang Cong is the party in the court, it is indeed not appropriate to be an official in the court. Returning to his hometown to lie dormant for several years is a good idea.

Of course, Xu Jin also understood that the main reason why Fei Hong left Beijing was worried that it would cause trouble for him. I thought that Master Fei was also worried that Xu, Fei and Xie families would be too powerful and would arouse suspicion from the emperor, so he decisively resigned from the position of chief minister of the cabinet.

Teacher Fei is tolerant and has no say about his good deeds to Xu Jin. It can be said that if Fei Hong had not had the Jin Dynasty today, and without Fei Hong's guidance on his studies back then, Xu Jin was afraid that he would not even pass the county examination, so Xu Jin respected and grateful to Fei Hong from the bottom of his heart.

At this time, Fei Hong said again: "Actually, there is one more thing for my teacher to go back to Qianshan this time, that is, to organize the marriage of Xiaoyu's girl."

Xu Jin heard this and said in surprise: "The third girl's marriage has been decided. Which young man from the young man is it?"

Fei Hongdao: "The Zheng family in southern Ganzhou is also a scholarly family. The other party has good looks and character. He won the scholar at the age of 18 and passed the imperial examination at the age of 22."

Xu Jin smiled and said, "That's good, Master Fei finally settled the thoughts of Yizhuang in his life."

Fei Hong smiled happily and said, "What Ziqian said is that half of the white hair on his master's head is because Xiaoyu is worried. If he can't get married, he will send her up the mountain to be a sister-in-law."

"Miss Xiaoyu is beautiful and smart. It's a blessing for anyone to marry her. How could she not get married?" Xu Jin said with a funny look.

Fei Hong said self-deprecatingly: "What's the blessing? As long as people don't return the goods, they will burn the incense for their teachers."

Xu Jin couldn't help but smile, and raised his eyebrows and said, "I see who dares!"

Fei Hong laughed: "She has a brother-in-law of a different surname, Wang, who is also known as Xu Beheading. No one dares."

Fei Cai and others also laughed, and Xu Jin smiled and asked, "When will the good days be?"

"After Mid-Autumn Festival in August."

Xu Jin nodded and said, "The students will definitely arrive at that time."
