Chapter 146
As a special post station for the Wang family in Uehara, Shaxu post covers an area larger than that of ordinary official post stations.

It has a huge vestibule, beyond which there is a stable. The vestibule is connected to the back yard through the main hall of the post station, and the back yard is the living area of ​​the post station staff.

The entire post station was surrounded by a circle of earthen walls, which were ten feet high and very strong, making the post station look like a temporary military settlement.

More than a hundred Xuan Chongwei are currently forming a line in the vestibule, showing their murderous aura, waiting for Xiao Bi's order.

As for the No. [-] soldiers guarding the station, they had already been disarmed by Xuan Chongwei and thrown to a corner of the courtyard to stand for punishment.

The Yi Cheng at the post station had never seen such a battle before, he was trembling, his face was apprehensive, he was already petrified.

"Search, find all the letters related to Uehara Wang!"

Xiao Bi put his hand on the handle of the Yanling Saber at his waist, and said in a cold voice.

"No one can stay, take them all away!"

"Yes!"

The crowd dispersed quickly and orderly, like black feathers drifting away.

"Are you from the royal family?"

Xiao Bi walked up to the Yi Cheng and questioned him condescendingly.

"No...it's not, my lord, the young one is just an official, a small official who is responsible for delivering letters for the Wang family."

Yi Cheng's face was ashen, with tears streaming down his face, he knelt down on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed repeatedly.

"The little one doesn't know anything! My lord, spare my life, my lord, spare my life..."

"enough!"

Xiao Bi gave a low shout, his voice was like thunder.

"According to reliable sources, Xuan Zhongwei can confirm that Uehara Wang's family is related to many extraordinary cases. This inn must undergo a comprehensive and careful search!"

"And you, as the postman of this station, naturally cannot escape."

"I believe you should have heard of Xuan Chongwei's Evil Elimination Prison. We'll see you there then."

Hearing that, the Yi Cheng's pupils shrank suddenly, and he collapsed on the ground in fright.

Xiao Bi patted his shoulder with the scabbard, showing a trademark smile.

"However, if you can tell some lies, maybe there is a turning point in this matter."

"I believe, you should be very familiar with this kind of thing."

He said in a low voice.

Fang Weihan listened in a daze.

Good guy, why is Xuan Chongwei's style of doing things so unpopular?

Violent law enforcement, greedy for money, perjury, severe punishment...

What a one-stop service.

Even a dog can prove to it that it is a cat.

He shook his head, and said to Xiao Bi:
"Xiao Dianjun, I'll go and have a look inside too."

"Go down, Your Highness."

Xiao Bi waved his hand, and continued to tease that Yi Cheng like a demon, it seemed that he enjoyed the process very much.

Fang Weihan walked into the main hall of the post station, which was decorated like a large file library, and the time and region were used as serial numbers to distinguish and arrange various letters sent and received.

"Tsk."

Fang Weihan walked into a small hall, and the word "Jiangyang" was marked on the top of the hall, which seemed to refer to a letter sent from Jiangyang County.

In this small hall, several Xuan Chongwei were skillfully sorting letters, for them who often ransacked their homes.This kind of work has long been familiar.

Seeing Fang Weihan walk in, they all clasped their fists and saluted:

"I have met His Royal Highness King Guangling."

"It's okay, I'll just take a look at it casually, you are busy with your work."

Fang Weihan waved his hand, indicating that they don't need to care.

He casually took a letter that Xuan Chongwei had already picked out and glanced at it.

It is written on the records of the prefect of Jiangyang County about the development of the local Yanchi salt mine.

Fang Weihan had never heard of any salt mines in Jiangyang County.

Obviously, this thing was privately swallowed by Uehara Wang.

Even the salt industry, which is the lifeblood of the country's economy, dared to take it privately. The Uehara Wang family really covered the sky with one hand.

"Ugh."

Fang Weihan secretly sighed in his heart.

There is no way to cover the sky with one hand, so I can only endure it.

The rest of the eight surnames are more or less willing to coexist peacefully with the royal family within the rules of the game specified by the Great Zhou.

Even if the Chen Jun Xie family monopolizes business and suppresses dissidents, they have never touched the royal family's property, and even pay taxes to the royal family on time.

Fan Yang Lu's Youzhou cavalry is strong and powerful, and dominates Jizhou, but they will still obey the orders of the central government and do whatever they are asked to do.

To put it bluntly, the industry is too single.

Either you have money but no soldiers, or you have soldiers but no money. If you want to make great progress, you have to sit down and have a good talk with everyone.

Do you want to buy soldiers with money?
Hehe, do you see if the royal family and the rest of the family will agree?
However, the above delicate balance only exists in the other seven surnames besides Uehara Wang.

The Uehara Wang family, who is the most powerful family in the world, is not included.

It can already make some rules on its own.

A country within a country, the king of Uehara.

At the beginning of the founding of the country, the Uehara Wang family monopolized things that were too special.

Civilian system.

At the beginning of Emperor Wu's founding of the country, half of the civil and military officials above the court were surnamed Wang, the king of Shangyuan King.The remaining families shared the remaining half.

There are countless three princes of the Uehara Wang family in the past, and countless relationship ties have developed from the hands of these bigwigs.

Former disciples, old officials, Qin and Jin in-laws, nepotism...

These relationships have been accumulated over the years, accumulating extremely strong political assets for the Uehara Wang family.

Wherever the power of the empire is carried out, there will be disciples of the royal family, just like the shadow of the empire, which cannot be eradicated at all.

The Uehara Wang family, who has mastered the power center of the empire, is an unsolvable problem hanging over the heads of the great Zhou emperors.

For them, the Fang family couldn't move, and they couldn't move at all. One move could move the whole body.

The entire River East is basically the territory of the Uehara Wang family, and the emperor's decrees are difficult to carry out here.

The land of Hedong is easy to defend and difficult to attack, with strong soldiers and strong horses, and the [-] Bingzhou soldiers and cavalry are extremely elite.Moreover, Hedong is very close to Changming and Luojing, so they can respond at any time.

At the top of the contemporary imperial court, Wang Tun is in the position of Zhongshu Ling to command the civil officials of the world, and his clan brothers share the military and political power of each state.

Wang Yu, the governor of Yizhou, Wang Xu, the governor of Jingzhou, Wang Min, the governor of Qingzhou, Wang Hao, the governor of Yuzhou...

Of the thirteen prefectures in the world, the Uehara Wang family controls four of them, and the remaining nine prefectures have a lot of resources that the Wang family can mobilize.

Oh, and Bingzhou has to be removed, which is their stronghold.

Money, power, land, soldiers, and relationships.

This is the capital of the Uehara Wang family as the number one family in the world.

If the royal family really broke up with Uehara Wang, it's hard to say whether the Fang family will change their surname to Wang.

"How did I die?"

Fang Weihan thought silently.

There seems to be no irreconcilable conflict between him and Uehara Wang, at most it is a little personal grudge.

Could it be my identity?

King Guangling... What does this identity mean?
Just as he was meditating silently, he seemed to feel that someone was watching him.

Fang Weihan turned his head thoughtfully.

The girl stood quietly at the door without saying a word, just looking at him quietly.

Several Xuanzhong guards also noticed Xiao Jin's arrival, they all clasped their fists to leave, and closed the door intimately before leaving.

Only Fang Weihan and Xiao Jin were left in the room.

"Stop staring at me, rest for a while, I can't run again."

Fang Weihan sighed.

He pulled two chairs over and pushed one to Xiao Jin.

"Come on, sit down, let's talk about what happened just now while we have free time."

Fang Weihan beckoned, motioning for Xiao Jin to follow.

The girl bit her lip, hesitated for a while, and sat on the chair opposite him.

"Are you asking me to apologize?"

Before he could speak, he heard Xiao Jin speak first.

Fang Weihan: "?"

"I……"

He was a little dumbfounded, and just about to speak, he was interrupted by Xiao Jin again.

"You don't have to apologize to me, you're right."

Xiao Jin said coldly, trying to pinch her throat, trying to make her voice more serious.

The girl put her hands on her thighs and held a delicate jade flute in her hand. Coupled with her pure and lovely face, she looked as holy as a lotus emerging from water.

After she finished saying this, she turned her head away, waiting eagerly for Fang Weihan's reaction.

Come on me, come on me, come on me...

But what caught her off guard was that Fang Weihan seemed relieved instead.

"You finally figured it out?"

He said with some relief.

"Yes, you can correct your mistakes. Xiao Jin, you have grown up."

Xiao Jin: "???"

She turned her head in disbelief, and looked at Fang Weihan blankly.

He... what did he just say?
Can I correct my mistake? ?

I……

No matter how hard it was for the girl to suppress the anger in her heart, she stood up abruptly, walked up to Fang Weihan in two steps, and pressed his shoulder angrily.

"I obviously did nothing wrong! You are the one who did the wrong thing, right?"

"Why can you show your face to me inexplicably?"

The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she became, and all the inner thoughts accumulated for a long time poured out in one go.

"Why can you talk and laugh with others as if nothing happened, and I want to worry about gains and losses alone?"

"Why can you accept my preference with confidence, and I will try my best to curry favor with you?"

Xiao Jin cried like pear blossoms and rain.

Her tears flowed violently and hit the ground hard along her chin.

"Fang Weihan!"

"I feel like your licking dog right now."

"It's your licking dog who comes and goes when you call it, and treats the little tenderness you bestowed on me as a bone."

Xiao Jin wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand, and said sobbing.

"You lick that damn Xie Lingwan, but I'm licking you."

"Oh, I still look down on her in vain, what right do I have to look down on her..."

She forced a smile on her tear-stained pretty face, and knelt down weakly and slowly.Shoulders shrugged.

Fang Weihan sat on the chair silently, tilted his head back, stared blankly at the ceiling, not knowing what to say for a while.

He felt a little uncomfortable.

Did Xiao Jin think of herself that way?

Ah……

"To tell you the truth, Xiao Jin, I didn't expect to hear these words from your mouth."

"I didn't know you thought of me that much."

Fang Weihan said softly.

"Xiao Jin... I never regarded you as my licking dog."

His mood is extremely complicated.

"It's your own subconscious that thinks you are my licking dog, so it subtly influences your thoughts."

"I have never come to you as soon as I ask you, and go away as soon as I ask you."

"Think about it carefully, we have known each other for so many years, and there are only two things I really asked you to do."

"One thing is asking you to help me put on a play in front of your elder brother a few days ago, and the other thing is today's thing."

"If you think these few things... hurt the relationship between you and me, then I won't talk about it in the future. OK?"

Fang Weihan squatted down, patted Xiao Jin's round shoulder lightly, and said helplessly.

Hearing what he said, the girl's heart throbbed, extremely sour.

Xiao Jin could hear the disappointment and sadness in Fang Weihan's tone, obviously he was also very uncomfortable.

But she still didn't raise her head, she still stubbornly didn't want to look at him.

"I don't think you understand why I was angry just now."

"I didn't intend to say it at first, but since you want to know, then I will explain it."

Fang Weihan stood up and walked to the window.

"I think the relationship between the two of us should be based on equality as the basic premise, and there is no situation where anyone deliberately pleases anyone. Such feelings are undoubtedly deformed, and I don't want to see such a scene happen."

"But what you did just now, think about it for yourself, is it true?"

he asked in a low voice.

"Why not!"

Xiao Jin raised her head abruptly and interrupted him with tears.

"Why is it!"

"Would you have done that without Xie Lingwan's presence and stimulation?"

Fang Weihan suddenly raised his voice.

Xiao Jin's voice stopped abruptly.

"you will not."

He didn't go to see Xiao Jin, but continued on his own:

"I know what you're thinking, but you don't know what I'm thinking!"

"Did you think I would be happy the moment I saw you take off your clothes?"

Xiao Jin bit her pale lips and burst into tears.

"Is not it?"

she asked crying.

Fang Weihan looked back at Xiao Jin, his eyes were extremely complicated.

"wrong."

"I'm scared, I'm disappointed, I'm angry."

"You are the proud young lady of the Lanling Xiao family, not my licking dog, let alone my vassal."

"Even if you don't take off your clothes and don't try to curry favor with me, your status in my heart is no worse than Xie Lingwan's, understand?"

"You don't have to be so contemptuous of yourself."

Xiao Jin stopped crying and looked at him with teary eyes.

Fang Weihan took a deep breath, turned his head, and closed his eyes unbearably.

"You and I have known each other for more than seven years, and I have already regarded you as my relatives and an inseparable part of my life."

"You know how scared I was the moment I saw the madness and paranoia in your eyes?"

"How many original sincere feelings were destroyed because of the madness and paranoia of one party?"

Fang Weihan paused.

He didn't want to say too much, but if he didn't say these words today, Xiao Jin would only get worse.

Just because he has been a dog licker, he doesn't want him to be the object of being licked.

The matter between him and Xie Lingwan was unavoidable. After investigating the cause of this incident, Fang Weihan had already forgiven the girl who was dedicated to him, and at the same time laughed at his dog-licking history.

But the relationship between him and Xiao Jin should never have developed like this.

It is completely avoidable.

It's also his fault, he didn't correct it in time, and it became what it is today.

Fang Weihan didn't want Xiao Jin to develop in the direction of Biaojiao.

In other words, no normal brother would want the younger sister he raised with his own hands to become sickly.

——If you really think about her and empathize with her.

Only the extreme inferiority complex, paranoid love and unrequited hatred intertwined can lead to the birth of Bingjiao.

As for these three things, Fang Weihan didn't want Xiao Jin to experience any of them.

Because she is her own little hibiscus.

"You never put yourself on an equal footing with me."

Fang Weihan said softly, his voice was full of memories and worries.

"Xiao Jin, our acquaintance started from an accidental injury, from your guilt towards me. It may be from that time that you planted such a seed in your heart."

"Maybe when you see me, you will always subconsciously think of what happened that day, and you will always feel guilty."

"Or for some other reason, I don't know what's going on."

Xiao Jin's almond eyes were filled with mist, squatting on the ground, looking up at Fang Weihan in a daze.

Have I ever thought about it?
The girl asked herself blankly in her heart.

some.

She was withdrawn and timid when she was a child, resisting the approach of any stranger, and had no friends except Xiaozhu.

Because of this, Fang Weihan's sudden kindness and friendliness that day made her surprised and overwhelmed, and subconsciously humbled.

She loves the sun very much, but dare not approach it.

She got close to the sun, regardless of being burned and bruised all over her body.

But the girl has never seen the sun, she just regards the moon as the sun.

The light of the moon is so soft that it won't burn her.

Everything is nothing but the cowardice and inferiority in the girl's mind.

Now that she suddenly heard Fang Weihan's words, Xiao Jin finally figured it out.

Her tears rolled down again, and smashed into little crystals on the ground.

"I hope you, everything is going well, safe and happy. But..."

Looking at the sobbing girl in front of him, Fang Weihan said in a low voice.

He felt his nose sore.

This attitude of being questioned and misunderstood by others is not easy to bear, especially for girls who have been watched grow up with their own eyes.

"But apart from that, I hope that you can completely get rid of your childhood shadow and truly be yourself."

"It's not Lanling Xiao's eldest lady, not my licking dog, and not anyone's vassal, you are just Xiao Jin."

"is it okay?"

He asked hoarsely,

"Can……"

Xiao Jin cried and said.

Fang Weihan squatted down, trying to help her up, but noticed the bracelet on her wrist.

"Heh, I gave you this Yaoguang Liuli..."

"But you said that I come to you as soon as I ask you, and go away as soon as I wave..."

He shook his head and laughed to himself.

"It's better when I was a child. When I grow up, I have more worries..."

The bright bracelet already exudes a glimmer of light in the dark room, shining like teardrops in the sun.

Hearing this, Xiao Jin couldn't bear it any longer, and burst into tears.

How could I feel that he was hanging on me... I... and said such heavy words.

He must be... very sad.

The girl suddenly felt that the things she was worried about before were superfluous and ridiculous.

He sees through his own thoughts, he always does, just like when we first met,
What a nuisance.

So annoying... that I never want to leave.

She threw herself into Fang Weihan's arms, and hugged him tightly with all her strength, as if she wanted to rub him into her body.

"I was wrong, I was really wrong..."

Xiao Jin cried heart-piercingly, her voice was intermittent.

Fang Weihan also put his arms around her, patting her on the back to comfort her silently.

"It's okay, you can correct your mistakes...you have really grown up."

He said with a wry smile.

Xiao Jin cried louder, her delicate body trembling.

The two hugged each other quietly like this, and after a while, the girl in her arms stopped crying as if she had dried up her tears.

Xiao Jin raised her head suddenly, and whispered tentatively:
"Brother Fang?"

Fang Weihan wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and responded softly:

"I am here."

Listening to his gentle voice, Xiao Jin almost didn't cry again.

How on earth was I thinking just now... to be able to say such harsh words to him.

Now Xiao Jin can't wait to slap herself twice.

"Can I kiss you?"

The girl clasped his chest and asked in a very low voice, a gleam of expectation flashed in her eyes.

"No, I'm not in the mood to be so angry with you."

Fang Weihan sighed and said weakly.

The light in the girl's eyes dimmed instantly, and her little face wrinkled into a pitiful ball.

"All right, all right, dear."

Fang Weihan couldn't do anything about her appearance, so he had no choice but to agree.

Only then did the girl smile through her tears, and the light in her eyes lit up again.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly.Obviously this is not the first time she has kissed Fang Weihan, but she is a little nervous about leaving.

It's like it's the first time.

She raised her head and slowly approached Fang Weihan's face, her heart beating continuously.

"boom!"

Suddenly there was a huge explosion outside, breaking up the charming atmosphere between the two of them.

This is a place guarded by Xuan Zhongwei, where did the explosion sound come from?
He sensed the danger almost immediately.

"what happened?"

Fang Weihan was extremely vigilant, and immediately supported Xiao Jin to stand up.

Xiao Jin was still immersed in the atmosphere just now and didn't realize it, when she heard Xiaozhu's anxious voice outside the door:

"Miss, are you alright?"

Xiao Zhu, who was waiting outside the door, opened the door and rushed in, and immediately rushed to Xiao Jin's side, checking anxiously.

"I am fine."

Xiao Jin shook her head.

"What's going on outside?"

she asked with some concern.

"I don't know. I was guarding the door just now, and I heard the sound of an explosion, so I ran in quickly."

Xiaozhu said blankly.

At this moment, Xiao Jin suddenly supported her forehead, looking a little painful.

"Brother Fang, I feel a little... dizzy, and I can't pull myself up."

She raised her hand, trying to drive the source power in her body, but found that the movements that were so easy in the past are now extremely difficult.

"My cultivation... seems to have been affected."

Fang Weihan hurriedly probed into her meridians with blood energy to check.

He found that the source power in Xiao Jin's body was running very slowly, as if the flow of time had been slowed down.

What's happening here?
Fang Weihan had never heard of the current situation. He quickly tried to mobilize his blood, but found that there was no obstacle.

How am I not affected?

When Fang Weihan was in doubt, something happened suddenly in the front yard of the inn.

I don't know when the one-foot-high earth wall around the courtyard collapsed and shattered. Countless men in black robes rushed in from behind the earth wall, and the swords in their hands flickered coldly.

It's Vulcan Cult!
His thoughts turned sharply, and he instantly realized the identities of this group of people.

Are they crazy?

Fang Weihan felt a little absurd and horrified.

In the past, Xuan Chongwei chased and killed the Vulcan Worship Cult, but now it's suddenly reversed?

Who gave them confidence?
wrong!

Fang Weihan looked far and wide, and found a thin light curtain at the original earth wall, with chaotic gas flowing on it.

This seems to be a formation!
Is Xiao Jin's condition related to this formation?

Then Xiao Bi and Xuan Chongwei would also...

Fang Weihan's heart sank to the bottom in an instant.
