Chapter 320 Hangzhou
By the time Fan Xian arrived on Jiangnan Road, the time had passed Pinellia.

The sweltering air enveloped his whole body in it. He thought it would not be a big feeling just after the sun came out, but Fan Xian was already drenched in sweat after just walking from the outskirts of Hangzhou to the inside of the city.

The carriage slowly drove into Hangzhou City, Fan Xian didn't inform anyone, so no one knew what happened to him. This time Fan Xian was considered an old embassy leader, and he wouldn't mobilize people to do anything when he passed by. What's more, Cao Yan, the governor of Jiangnan, and Xue Qing, governor of Liangjiang, have nothing to deal with here, and Fan Xian is too lazy to deal with them.

It's true that boring weather makes people more bored.

Fan Xian fanned himself and jumped out of the carriage early. He really jumped out, and it was still in the process of driving. In fact, if he hadn't maintained his high status, Fan Xian really wanted to sit on the top of the sedan chair and feel Dozens of horse-drawn carriages bring wind-like speed.

The streets of Hangzhou City are still as bustling as ever, with cloth workshops, dyeing workshops, workshops, and all kinds of shops. Fan Xian is not in the mood to go to the market this time. came to the courtyard.

his own yard.The yard has been almost renovated.

All the decoration here is done by Lin Wan'er, but it's not very tiring, after all, it only needs to point and point.

Fan Xian bypassed the hall door and walked in directly. The spies and guards of the Overwatch Council on both sides stopped and did not step forward. Although they didn't know that it was Fan Xian, the deputy head of the Overwatch Council on Jiangnan Road nodded and bowed like that. They could see the appearance clearly, so no one dared to say anything immediately.

Shi Chanli had been waiting in the main hall for a long time. The moment Fan Xian arrived, Shi Chanli immediately walked up to meet Fan Xian.

"My lord." Shi Chanli did not speak politely, but acted very solemnly. He smiled and said to Fan Xian, "It's been a long journey, it's hard work."

Fan Xian nodded, "It's tanned."

"Ah?" Shi Chanli was taken aback for a moment, he never thought that Fan Xian would say that, and the two immediately laughed.

At this time, Wang Qinian came in from the outside, and the big and small bags began to be unloaded from the car, and Deng Ziyue and others also started to walk inside.Shi Chanli didn't delay either, and immediately went up to help Wang Qinian with his luggage.

Fan Xian did not notify the people in the yard of his arrival in advance, only Shi Chanli knew about it. In fact, Shi Chanli also came to report the news, but before he had time, he had already met Fan Xian. No one knew of Fan Xian's arrival yet, so Fan Xian also tiptoed inside on a whim.

The courtyard is very large. When Fan Xian walked in, there were only some servants and maidservants in the main hall, and there were no extra people. They didn't know Fan Xian, and they were a little surprised to see Fan Xian like this. Ordinary people, even people like them who have been doing business for a long time come here, and their belongings are screened every day to investigate the reasons for their entry and exit.

And this person walked in swaggeringly, which was indeed a little surprising.

Fan Xian did not set his sights on these people at that time, but instead walked towards the inner courtyard.

They all lived in the inner courtyard, and Fan Xian knew about it.

Before he walked in, he heard the voices of Fan Ruoruo and Fan Shuning.

"Whether you know it or not, it should be green, fat, red and thin." Fan Ruoruo emphasized.

"Oh, it's really annoying. Why does daddy have to write so many poems? After reciting them, his head is going to explode." Fan Shuning complained.

Fan Xian secretly laughed, and he stepped into the inner courtyard.

But at the very first moment when the footsteps fell, the sword shadow flashed by, Fan Xian frowned and immediately took a step back. After taking this step, Fan Xian felt that something was wrong, and when he was about to raise his hand to resist, he hesitated again. , Then, smiled.

moment!

Five swords come out together!

In an instant, the murderous intent was overwhelming!

But the murderous aura of Qingtian was not issued by the five people, and then five swords appeared around Fan Xian at the same time, and behind each sword was a vicious person who stabbed directly.

Fan Xian stood where he was, without resisting.

That is, in the blink of an eye.

at once!

The three swords are broken together!

A man in black appeared in front of Fan Xian, holding an iron bar with one hand, and faced the three people indifferently.

On Fan Xian's left, a young man appeared, dressed in plain clothes, with his left and right hands intertwined, holding a long sword in one's hand.

On Fan Xian's right, a man with a mask appeared. Through the mask, he could see that the sword in his hand had touched the neck of the sword-bearer opposite him. Every inch of his hand was a life.

The five of them stood there blankly, some of the long swords in their hands were broken, and some were even unable to hold them firmly.

At this moment, hurried footsteps came from outside the door, and then the Sword House Five Swords from the capital city appeared at the door, their shock was indescribable, they immediately stepped forward and said, "Senior brother! Senior Sister! This is..."

Everyone froze in place. Jian Qi behind him came up and said with a cold face, "This is Fan Xian we are looking for."

The five looked at Fan Xian at the same time. Although they were unwilling, they still put the long swords in their hands, squinted their eyes, and said nothing.

At this time, Ming Zhuxiang and Lin Wan'er walked over, while Fan Ruoruo and Fan Shuning, who were arguing at the side, heard the movement here, and walked over here at the same time.

Fan Shuning happily ran over and was picked up by Fan Xian. There was no unnatural expression on Fan Xian's face. He smiled slightly, and said to Fan Shuning calmly, "Shuning Be nice or not?"

"Good boy!" Fan Shuning giggled happily.

"Sister!" Lin Wan'er didn't expect Fan Xian to come, so she hurried over.

At this time, Ming Zhuxiang also stood in front of Fan Xian.

"It seems that Dongyi City is going to kill you now, so Master can't do it himself?" Ming Zhuxiang smiled, and turned to look at the ten people beside him.

They all stood there dumbly, looking unwilling.But Fan Xian didn't intend to talk to them, and directly took Lin Wan'er and Fan Shuning to the place where Fan Ruoruo was. Fan Ruoruo was not in a hurry to say anything to her brother, she stood quietly by the side, smiling and waiting.

"Where's Sizhe?" Fan Xian asked.

"I've never seen him come out of Baoyue Tower." Fan Ruoruo sighed, but then smiled, "It's actually good, he's busy, he must have something to do."

"What? Are you leaving now?" Lin Wan'er looked at Fan Xian in surprise, and asked in confusion.

At this time, Fan Xian hugged little Fan Liang, and kissed that pouty little face from time to time while shaking.

"That's right." Fan Xian said, "This time, I'm going to Dongyi City by order. We can't delay on the way. After the people in Jianlu have rested, we're going to go on the road. We've given them one day today and tomorrow. In the morning, let's go."

Lin Wan'er nodded, "Dongyi City is actually pretty good, take me to have a look if you have the chance."

"That's natural." Fan Xian said, "When these things are over, I will take you around all the places, such as the sea of ​​flowers in Northern Qi, the sword furnace in Dongyi City, etc. You have heard of them but haven't. How about the places you've been to?"

"Okay." Lin Wan'er was delighted, "When Liang'er grows up, let's go together."

Fan Xian nodded.

The inner treasury of Jiangnan Road was only well organized by Fan Sizhe, and Shi Chanli was also very handy as an errand here. He basically reported everything to Fan Xian, and Fan Xian nodded in satisfaction.

In fact, the matter in Jiangnan Road is very complicated, but Fan Xian knows that Fan Sizhe can handle it well, not because of anything else, but because of the trust between the brothers.So Fan Xian didn't actually intend to disturb Fan Sizhe this time, but he didn't know where Fan Sizhe heard about Fan Xian's return. Before he could wait, he had already returned to Fan's residence.

But at this time, Fan Xian was chatting with Wu Zhu.

"Sword Cottage?" Wu Zhu asked.

Fan Xian nodded, "Si Gu Jian sent someone to look for him."

"Do you believe him?" Wu Zhu asked.

Wu Zhu is a very calm person, he can always point out the crux of the problem straight to the point, so Fan Xian likes to chat with him about some things, not only can he see the essence of the matter clearly, but also find some information that he didn't find.If there is no Wuzhu, it would be better to be alone.

Fan Xian murmured, "Believe it or not is not important, what is important is this trip to Dongyi City, there is no way I will not go."

"Why?" Wuzhu asked.

"Your Majesty's imperial decree, I have to go, and if I resist the decree, I have to find a reason, but I am more interested in the affairs of the Taiping Bank in Dongyi City, so I still plan to go." Fan Xian said, "And the internal treasury is in the bank. There are also distributions in Dongyi City, so I also want to go and see what the inner warehouse of Dongyi City looks like, after all, I seldom communicate."

Wuzhu nodded, "Okay, do you need me?"

"Then there's no need, Uncle, don't you like Jiangnan Road? Just stay here." Fan Xian said.

"There are thirteen swords in the Jianlu. If Si Gu Jian gives an order, you will be doomed." The first time Wu Zhu said so many words, it was for Fan Xian's safety. He said, "The people around you , has already been completely stopped by Sigu Sword, the only people around you who can use it are Yu Zhenzi and Shadow."

Fan Xian nodded, "That's right, but I don't believe that Si Gu Jian would set up this big net to kill me. Besides, if he lured me to Dongyi City just to kill me, it would be too much effort, and it doesn't suit Si Gu. The character of the sword."

"You still know his character?" Wu Zhu expressed doubts.

Fan Xian just smiled, "It's too illusory to talk about things like personality, but I always feel that it's too cheap for a great master to do this."

Wu Zhu's face moved slightly, as if he was smiling.

"So I don't think he will do anything to me. Besides, the appearance of Jianlu this time is clearly the work of the great master. Although he is overbearing, it is indeed Si Gu Jian's way of inviting people. Uncle, although you don't understand the world, But I understand this matter quite well." Fan Xian smiled and said, "This time there is no big problem."

"It's good that you understand." Wu Zhu nodded, "There are still people waiting for you outside."

Only then did Fan Xian stand up, "Uncle, take care of yourself."

"Okay." This time Wu Zhu smiled dotingly.

Fan Xian turned his head and walked out of the wing.

Fan Sizhe was already waiting at the spot, "Brother."

Fan Xian looked at Fan Sizhe happily, "How is it? Are you doing well in Jiangnan for a while?"

"Brother, let's go talk to Yuelou." Fan Sizhe grabbed Fan Xian's shoulder.

………………

………………

The decoration of Baoyue Tower has been changed a bit. Of course, Fan Xian knows why it was changed. According to the blueprint of Yishiju's partition decoration, he made a similar underground bugging room with all the things according to Yishiju's furnishings.

"How is it?" Fan Sizhe pushed open the hidden iron door and led Fan Xian in.

In front of him was a narrow passage, basically only one person could pass through it, Fan Xian shook his head, "It's not that good."

"Why?" Fan Sizhe was taken aback.

"There is no fire exit." Fan Xian smiled, waved his hands and continued to walk inside.

Fan Sizhe didn't know what Fan Xian was talking about, so he had to follow secretly.

"This is similar to where I stayed before." Sisi said after following Fan Xian and others out of the ground.

"So?" Fan Sizhe asked.

"So there is a problem." Sisi concluded.

In fact, Fan Xian didn't find any problems, but after hearing what Sisi said, he became interested, and the three of them came to an elegant seat, and after closing all the doors, Fan Xian said, "What's the problem?" ?tell me the story."

"It's actually very simple. This place is the same as Yishiju. It is made from the same drawing, so basically the materials and specifications are all the same, but there are a few more houses for monitoring." Sisi said, "But there is a problem. Here, like Yishiju, it won’t work.”

"What?" Fan Sizhe had carefully prepared a large project for a long time. He was a little bit annoyed when he was told this, so he asked directly, "Is it the same? Is it possible that a stone house cannot be imitated by others?"

"The problem lies in the materials used," Sisi said.

After she said this, Fan Xian already understood what Sisi was going to say, so he smiled and drank tea in silence.

Sisi made tea for the two of them, and said as they walked, "The problem of materials is very serious. The capital city is located in the north and is relatively arid. Master Fan has to pick out the filth in his nose every morning, and Jiangnan Road is close to the East China Sea. , it is very humid, if you use the same dry wood as in Kyoto City, the aging will be accelerated due to the humidity, and there are more termites here, in such humidity, eating wood, within a few years, the place will be riddled with holes , a collapse occurs, ranging from being held accountable to others, to the worst causing one’s life.”

As soon as these words came out, Fan Sizhe suddenly realized, and his views on Sisi also changed.

However, this did not affect Sisi's attitude.

After some dishes were served, Wang Qinian walked into the room with Gundam.

"Long time no see." Fan Xian stood up to greet Gundam.

"My lord." When Gao Da saw Fan Xian, he had been thinking about it for a long time, and then they began to drink with each other.

Fan Xian didn't drink too much, but Gao Da, Wang Qinian, and his younger brother Fan Sizhe were basically unconscious, and had already started talking nonsense. Fan Xian just looked at them happily, and then called the people from the Overwatch Council Come and carry them all back.

In the afternoon, Fan Xian returned to the courtyard.

"How long will we be going this time?" Lin Wan'er asked.

"I'll be back in a few months." Fan Xian said while pacing.

"Do you still want to bring Ruoruo?" Lin Wan'er asked.

"No." Fan Xian shook his head, "Uncle Wu Zhu won't go either."

"Will that be dangerous?" Lin Wan'er asked.

Fan Xian just smiled, "This time it's a gift from a great power, so there won't be any problems."

Only then did Lin Wan'er nod her head in reassurance.

At night, Fan Xian is always with his family. He cherishes this time very much, but there is always a time to say goodbye. Ever since Fan Xian did this, he has been prepared for it. .

When the giant ship sailed from the sea, the people below were seeing off Fan Xian. Lin Wan'er obviously calmed down a lot this time. She knew that Fan Xian would not encounter any serious problems, and there would be no accidents, because this time Fan Xian said it, so she believed it.

The sea was very calm, without any waves, and it was just morning when Fan Xian's big boat sailed into the sea.

Standing beside Fan Xian, Gundam felt an indescribable intimacy.

"After [-] days, we will reach Dongyi City." Yu Zhenzi walked over and said to Fan Xian.

"It's not very long." Fan Xian nodded, how long he thought it would take.

"I saw Wu Ya in the cabin." Yu Zhenzi said.

"Yes." Fan Xian sighed, "He said he wanted to go to worship."

"When passing by, I will put the boat down." Yu Zhenzi explained, then turned around and was about to leave.

Fan Xian hesitated for a moment, wanting to say something, but in the end he held back.

The sea breeze is still blowing, and this sea carries many memories. These memories may not be good, but they are indeed the most memorable.

"The people in Dongyi City have already been arranged," Wang Qinian said.

"Who passed by?" Fan Xian asked suddenly.

"A spy, a spy from Jiangnan Road." Wang Qinian said.

Only then did Fan Xian nod his head. He wasn't worried that Shisanlang Wang would leak anything, but that there were too many unknown things in this land of Dongyi City, so he had no choice but to do so.

Chen Pingping hadn't seen him before leaving, so he didn't know what was waiting for him in Dongyi City.

The unknown is always frightening. Fan Xian doesn't know anything, but he has to walk this road full of dangers. It's not because he is stupid, but because he is confident.

Ever since he returned from the Northern Qi Dynasty, he has always wanted to become a chess player, and now he is already a skilled layout master.But this time, Fan Xian was ready for the dismantling.

Dongyi City, here I come.
