Chapter 92 Xu Changzhi visits Mrs. Sheng

Wei Yuan had just left the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The chief minister of political affairs, the chief of the third department, and several ministers appeared from behind the screen.

Han Zhang took a sip of tea, looked at everyone, and asked, "What do you think of Wei Yuan?"

Several big shots who could make the capital tremble by just stamping their feet spoke one after another:

"It's a pity. For such a talented person, even if he studies in literature, he will still have great achievements."

"We don't win people, and they are not necessarily enemies. If this person comes to power in the future, he may not be able to oppose us."

"Not a friend, nor an enemy. Interestingly, His Majesty wants to support him. If we interfere more, it will make His Majesty unhappy."

"."

Han Zhang nodded, "Then... let's take a look."
-
After Wei Yuan left the Prime Minister's Mansion, he went to the British Duke's Mansion and informed Zhang Fu of his conversation with Han Zhang.

The latter smiled and said: "You are a future martial artist. It is reasonable for them to test your attitude."

Wei Yuan was relieved.

The two major factions, civil and military, have different development directions.

Since the Taizong dynasty, the civil servant faction has been finalized.

Generally speaking, if the prime minister and other leading figures think there are good talents among young people, they will support them.

This is the so-called 'disciple and old official'.

Since then it has been the same.

Since the founding of the country, Wu Xun has formed an inherent faction, which is the 'inheritance system'.

From an institutional point of view, the prime minister who came from the imperial examination and the military leader who inherited the family are on opposite sides.

"My disciple probably didn't say anything wrong. As for what Mr. Han thinks, it is beyond my control."

When Wei Yuan first entered the capital, he naturally did not want to offend anyone.

But he is a military commander now, this is an unchangeable fact.

Today, through the conversation with Zhang Fu, Wei Yuan could basically confirm that Zhang Fu wanted to train himself to be the next person to represent Wu Xun's interests.

"Even if you say the wrong thing, it doesn't matter. Your future is not in Han Zhang's hands."

Zhang Fu is a pure military general who only knows how to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country.

This is also a key factor that makes Zhao Zhen feel reassured.

It's not scary when military generals stick together. What's scary is when military generals stick together with civil servants. Zhang Fu has always been aware of this.

Afterwards, Wei Yuan left the British government residence and spent the whole night speechless.
-
The next day.

Xu Changzhi went to the Sheng family on behalf of the Yongyi Hou Mansion.

He was the only one in the entire Xu family who came forward, but that was enough.

Because Xu Changzhi is now the mainstay of the Yongyi Hou Mansion.

Shou'an Hall.

Mrs. Sheng was restless.

Sheng Hong and Wang Ruofu sat on one side, and the former said with relief:

"Mom, Changbai has already welcomed Xu Hujun in front of the house. He must be arriving soon. Don't worry."

As he said this, he winked at Minglan, who was standing next to Mrs. Sheng.

Minglan understood and said with a smile: "Brother Xu said he would come, and he will definitely come. Grandma, just relax."

Wei Yuan is now considered a relative of the Sheng family, and is older than Xu Changzhi.

However, the two of them never cared about this and still treated each other like brothers.

A martial artist never sticks to vulgar etiquette.

Old Mrs. Sheng nodded and said, "It's just that I haven't seen my mother-in-law for a long time, and I feel a little uneasy. It doesn't matter."

Minglan smiled.

At this time, Chang Feng hurried over and said:

"Brother Xu has already entered the door and is coming with his second brother."

Mrs. Sheng stood up quickly and said excitedly: "Okay, okay."

The voice just fell.

I heard a voice outside,
"Auntie, my great-nephew is here to see you!"

Mrs. Sheng was rarely moved and her lips trembled.

Minglan supported her tightly.

Hualan, Rulan, and Molan were also here at this moment.

Mrs. Sheng quickly walked out of the lobby.

Sheng Hong and others followed closely behind.

Behind Xu Changzhi, a large group of servants came here carrying various gifts.

"My aunt is well, my grandnephew is here to greet you."

When Xu Changzhi saw Mrs. Sheng, he bowed deeply.

Mrs. Sheng quickly walked forward and helped him up personally.
"Good boy, my aunt is very happy to have you here."

This was the first time Xu Changzhi officially met Mrs. Sheng, even though his grandfather and Mrs. Sheng were not biological siblings.

But they belong to the same family, and the blood relationship is unbreakable.

"Auntie, my great-nephew will visit you often in the future, but you don't have to be annoyed when the time comes."

Xu Changzhi said with a smile.

Minglan on the side smiled and said, "If you come here every day, grandma will be extremely happy."

Xu Changzhi glanced at Minglan and said with a smile: "Yes, I have grown a lot taller. I often hear Brother Wei mention you as my precious niece, and my ears almost get calloused."

As soon as these words came out, everyone laughed one after another.

Minglan frowned and said, "You call my uncle Brother Wei, and you call my grandmother your great-aunt, so how should I call you?"

Sheng Hong said displeasedly: "Of course your child is called according to our relationship."

Xu Changzhi smiled and said: "You can call me whatever you like. Your uncle and I are both martial artists and we don't value this."

Minglan giggled and said, "Then when my uncle is here, I will also call you uncle. If my grandmother is here, I will call you brother Xu, okay?"

Xu Changzhi waved his hand, "It's up to you."

Sheng Hong and others only thought Minglan was just a kid playing around and didn't pay much attention.

Minglan said those words because she didn't want to cause any embarrassment between Xu Changzhi and Mrs. Sheng. Old Mrs. Sheng said: "Okay, everyone is standing outside, come in quickly."

Afterwards, everyone entered the main hall one after another.

Originally, I heard the news that Xu Changzhi was coming.

Lin Sushuang specifically asked Mo Lan to have a good relationship with this Xu family son.

The results of it?
Don’t wait to flatter yourself.

Ming Lan and Xu Changzhi seemed to be quite familiar with each other.

This sense of disparity made Mo Lan feel depressed.

Enter the main hall.

Xu Changzhi sat opposite Sheng Hong and his wife.

Old Mrs. Sheng sat in the first place and asked:

"I heard that you have been guarding the border with Brother Yuan all year round. It must be very hard, right?"

Xu Changzhi shook his head and said: "Fortunately, except for the hard times when marching and fighting, I am usually quite free."

At this time, Mo Lan poured a cup of tea for Xu Changzhi and said with a smile: "Brother Xu has been guarding the border for many years. He must have experienced hundreds of battles, right?"

Xu Changzhi responded: "I can't say that I have experienced hundreds of battles. The scars on my body are not half as many as those of Uncle Minglan."

Hearing this, Minglan's heart tightened, "My uncle has many scars on his body?"

Xu Changzhi asked curiously: "Didn't your uncle ever mention it to you and your mother?"

Minglan shook her head.

Xu Changzhi was relieved, "That's because I'm talking too much."

Minglan asked: "How many scars are there on my uncle's body?"

Xu Changzhi shook his head and said: "I can't count. Brother Wei must fight first in every battle. I remember the most intense battle. There were dozens of gaps in the weapon in Brother Wei's hand."

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but take a breath.

Although they have never seen bloody war scenes.

But he has come into contact with iron tools or weapons.

The weapon was cut with so many gaps. One can imagine the tragic scene.

Minglan guessed that for Wei Yuan to be where he is today, he must have given something that ordinary people could not give.

But at this moment, she realized that her so-called conjectures were far from superficial.

despite this.

When her uncle came back, he didn't reveal anything to her mother.

On the contrary, if there is any good thing, I always think of them.

For example, Wei Shuyi's imperial body.

Thinking of this, Minglan not only felt grateful to Wei Yuan, but also felt guilty.

Her uncle had really paid too much for them, so much that she would never be able to pay it back in her lifetime.

Sheng Hong said: "Today is a happy day, let's not talk about the war."

"Changzhi, I wonder how your parents are doing lately?"

Xu Changzhi responded: "My cousin is thinking about me, everything is fine."

Sheng Hong smiled and said: "As long as you are in good health."

Xu Changzhi had dinner at Sheng's house and started chatting with the old lady about the past.

"You are the elder of the Xu family, and this will never change no matter when."

"You have suffered some injustice in the Sheng family. It is true that my grandfather and my father both blamed you for what happened back then."

"But after all, you are the direct descendant of the Yongyi Marquis Mansion. We in this lineage are extremely grateful to be able to inherit the title."

"Let what happened back then be in the past."

I heard Xu Changzhi say so much.

Mrs. Sheng was very moved.

The knot with my mother's family was finally resolved.

Mrs. Sheng handed all the accumulated wealth, including the remaining dowry taken from the Hou Mansion, to Xu Changzhi's hands and said:

"My aunt has nothing to give you. Just take these land deeds, real estate, and shops."

Xu Changzhi refused and said, "Auntie, these things are your property, and your grandnephew must not take them."

Old Mrs. Sheng couldn't resist, so she could only follow his wishes.

After Xu Changzhi left the Sheng family.

The old lady cried secretly alone.

Minglan and Fang's mother came to the old lady's room and felt a little sad when they saw the old lady's red eyes.

Minglan half-knelt in front of the old lady, held her hand and said:
"Grandma, you should be happy that the Xu family brother is here today."

Unexpectedly, before the old lady said anything, Fang’s mother also shed tears.

"I have been serving you since I was a child, and I know that the biggest problem in your life is to cut off all contact with your mother's family."

"Now. Now I can sort out this knot and make up for this regret. I am happy for you, old slave."

Mrs. Sheng stroked Minglan's little head, looked at Fang's mother again, and said with a smile:
"Okay, it's over, it's over."

Minglan felt sorry for Mrs. Sheng, with tears in her eyes.

"Grandma, brother Xu said that she will visit you often."

"It won't be long before you can go to the Marquis Mansion and the Xu Family Ancestral Hall to pay homage to Minglan's great-grandfather and great-grandmother."

Mrs. Sheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded vigorously,

"Ming girl is right."

"I didn't expect that our girl Ming would be able to comfort people."

Minglan smiled and said: "Ming'er will always grow up, you can't take care of Ming'er for the rest of your life, right?"

Mrs. Sheng thought of her own experience, looked at Minglan again, and said solemnly:

"Ming'er, my grandmother was deeply loved by her parents when she was young, but later, she had a quarrel with the family because of your grandfather."

"Grandma doesn't ask you what your relationship with your family will be like after you get married, but I want to advise you not to get unhappy with your uncle because of your marriage."

"Your uncle loves you and protects you more than your father. I don't want you to follow my old path."
