"Sir, sir, Mr. Xu is back!"

He had been outside with the close boys who had been away from the servants, and ran in from outside excitedly: "It seems that he is coming to the guesthouse. Are you here to find a gentleman?"

Tong Xian squinted his eyes and looked at his boy, shook his head slightly.

"It seems not!" The boy looked at the crowd outside by the door, and said in disappointment: "They turned toward the main hall!"

"Go and play by yourself, just don't leave the house!" Tong Xian said with a smile: "Don't bump into others, let alone be surprised, let alone make people say that we have never seen the world!"

"Yes!" The boy nodded softly, and didn't know what he thought of, jumped out again.

This was Tong's winter last year to take in a little guy in the capital. If Tong hadn't taken in, I'm afraid that in the winter of last year, this little guy would have died of starvation in a corner of the capital. This time he followed Xu Bai to Tianjin, except for this little guy who was ignorant of the world, he almost didn't take anything.

After all, his eyes are still a little inconvenient, and it is always good to have a clever little guy serving him.

As for why he hurriedly returned to Tianjin, Xu Bai did not say it, and Tong Xian did not ask, as if it was normal for him to come back to Tianjin. Moreover, he did not expect that after Xu Bai would come back to Tianjin, he would come to him with respect and wise men. No matter who had experienced that night of life and death, he probably needed to calm down.

This is true for him, and for Xu Bai, it is also true for him.

Shi Heng fell, Cao Jixiang and Cao Qin fell, too. Looking back on the years he had wandered in the capital, he seemed to have nothing left behind. Whenever he had some ambitions, the old man always seemed to be joking with him, and always kicked him down from the clouds without mercy and let him start over.

After experiencing this several times, his mood is now very indifferent. No matter how bad it is, it is still so bad. He can still be ruined. His life is not magnificent, but it is also a twists and turns. In the end, he can still have a place to go and someone can take it in. In fact, he should be content.

This young man who was determined to be extremely lucky should not seem to be very ambitious. He is dependent on him. As long as he does not commit suicide, he will not commit suicide. He may have a good end in the future!

He threw out a few pieces of money in his hand, turned around on the table for a few times, stopped, opened his eyes, looked at the gods and smiled, reached out and picked up the money one by one back into his hand.

"Mr. Tong, the Lord holds a banquet in the hall. Please come over!"

A voice came from outside the door, and Tong raised his head first and nodded with a smile.

In a short while, a banquet was prepared in the living room. Xu Bai sat in the main seat. Next to him was a middle-aged scholar who he had never met before, and there was no one else.

"Let me introduce it. This is Mr. Tong Xiantong, this is Mr. Wang Yu and Mr. Wang. Both of them are talented and capable. The ones I have always lacked are two such talents. To be honest, I have many people around me who dare to fight and kill, but when I speak of it, I have a clear mind and can be very knowledgeable. If I have the help of my two gentlemen, I will feel much more at ease in the future!"

"Dong Weng Yan is so serious!"

"Sir, I'm so rude!"

The two of them said together, suddenly realizing that the names they called were different. After being slightly stunned, they looked at each other and smiled.

"Mr. Tong knows a lot about my official affairs. He turns around and get close to Mr. Wang. He will tell Mr. Wang about his official affairs so that Mr. Wang can understand his official situation as soon as possible and give advice to him!"

"This is a matter of course, don't worry, sir!" Tong Xian squinted his eyes and nodded slightly.

"Are you sure you must keep calling me lord?" Xu Bai smiled: "If this is the case, I have to find you a job, otherwise it would be injustice!"

"Then Tong is the same as Mr. Wang, please call the Lord Dongweng!" Tong Xian shook his head: "It's more appropriate for Tong to stay by Dongweng, for a job or something. Let's talk about it until everyone forgets Tong!"

Wang Yu kept looking at Mr. Tong, who seemed to have eye disease in front of him. When he heard him speak this, he immediately knew that this person must be a person with a story.

He is not in a hurry to know what the story is. Anyway, he stays with Xu Bai's side. He should know what he should know, but he will never ask about what he should not know.

Although it was just a small family banquet, Xu Bai held a banquet for them alone, which gave them enough respect. After the banquet, Wang Yu, like Tong Xian, also got his own guest house in Xu's house, and Xu Bai even sent two of them to each of them to listen to it.

The Xu family is now full of servants.

After the meal, Wang Yu went back to his home and was appointed by Xu Bai. He had to settle down his home and inform him of the good news. Tong Xian stayed and accompanied Xu Bai to slowly savor the tea.

"I know you have a lot of questions to ask!"

Xu Bai looked at the blind man drinking tea slowly, and looked slow, and shook his head slightly: "I have been thinking about keeping you by my side for a long time. You are a scheming person and a kind of character, so you can even calculate the good or bad luck of some things. Although I don't believe in these things, I don't believe in them. There are many people around me who believe in these!"

"It's just a living, so I'm exaggerating!" Tong Xian smiled slightly: "The main thing I'm thinking about is that I don't dare to use me with confidence!"

"Can I rest assured?" Xu Bai tilted his head and looked at him.

"Yes!" Tong Xian nodded without hesitation: "Tong Xian has died twice. Whether it is Tong Xian by Shi Heng or Tong Xian by Cao Qin, it is an unforgivable sin. A person like me, except for the adults, who dares to take me in? Don't talk about my little abilities. Even if I have the ability to be able to do everything, once I leave the adults, I will just be dead. What's the point of worrying about me?"

"Then you just stay well!" Xu Bai took a sip of fragrant tea, looked at the green tea in the tea bowl, and said softly.

Tong Xian nodded silently.

"Before meeting Mr. Wang, I took the exam for Mr. Wang. Regarding the matter of several farms that I set up outside Tianjin City where the White Lotus Sects were detained, I asked him what to do. Mr. Wang gave me a suggestion. I want to hear your opinion on this matter!"

"I have heard of this thing around Cao Qin!" Tong Xian nodded slowly: "Cao Qin's evaluation of you that day was four words - the kindness of a woman!"

"Why should I care about other people's evaluation when doing things!" Xu Bai snorted: "I'm asking you, would you suggest me how to deal with this?"

"This matter is very simple. If the adults cannot bear to execute them, they will take out the young and strong people and send them to the border town. In less than three years, these young and strong people will work as prisoners of crime, and there should be few left. The remaining old, weak and weak women and children will be directly sold. Without the young and strong people, they will be cheap. What else can these old and weak women and children do? This will not only bring the name of benevolence and righteousness to the adults, but also deal with this trouble. In the end, Tianjin, which has been exhausted to rectify, will not be rekindled!"

Xu Bai felt a little stern. For the same thing, Tong Xian and Wang Yu's approach to dealing with each other was completely different. Wang Yu was a righteous plot, which means that even if he knew his intentions, he had to follow his own pace step by step. In the end, he could convert these people into his own strength to solve this problem.

Tong Xian's method is to be straightforward and cruel, and he thinks of human life as if he is a mustard of grass. However, his method is effective quickly and cannot be said to be of no advantage. Perhaps in his heart, this is the correct way for the superiors to deal with these things. Not to mention these White Lotus Sectists, even ordinary people, what does it count in the eyes of the superiors?

Xu Bai is really able to pay attention to the emperor and the empress dowager now. Whose suggestions he takes mean that what style he does is. There are naturally many people who come up with ideas around the emperor and the empress dowager. How to do something in the end depends on the decision of the person who makes the idea.

"I barely passed the exam!" Xu Bai nodded slightly: "Familiar with the environment and the personnel around me as soon as possible. In Tianjin, I'm afraid we will stay for a while!"

"I won't go back to the capital for the time being?" Tong Xian looked at Xu Bai: "Is it because I'm afraid of suspicion in the palace?"

"What are Is there to be suspicious about?" Xu Bai was stunned and laughed: "I want soldiers but no soldiers, no power. Under the prince's command, I am just a prisoner. I am afraid that the palace will take a look at me for a long time, which is considered to be a compliment to me!"

"Why don't go back to the capital for the time being, does the prince mean or the adults themselves?"

It seemed that this was the area that Tong Xian knew. Seeing that Xu Bai was not angry or stopped him from asking, he tilted his head and continued to ask.

Xu Bai sighed: "At the beginning, it was my own intention. I just wanted to hide for a few days to relax. However, after Cao Qin's rebellion was over, he would go back to Tianjin, which means the prince!"

"Oh!" Tong Xian flipped the money in his hand, and he was playing while pondering.

Xu Bai was not in a hurry and just waited for him quietly. He had long wanted to find someone to talk about these words. Now that he was talking about this matter, he was also very curious. Tong Xian should be quite familiar with people's hearts. After all, he has lived by guessing and guessing people's hearts throughout his life. Perhaps, for him, Xu Bai can get some answers that he had never thought of.

"This time I enter the palace, can you get the exact news about Your Majesty's condition?"

After pondering for a while, Tong Xian suddenly asked a question that seemed unreliable, and Xu Bai was suddenly stunned.

"It's hard to say!"

"It shouldn't be said!" Tong Xian shook his head and looked at Xu Bai.

Xu Bai laughed silently: "You are so brave..."

"There are no outsiders here, whether it is the emperor or the prince, for Tong Xian, they are all outsiders..." Tong Xian said lightly: "Since only adults can protect Tong in this world, Tong naturally has to devote all his efforts to plan for the adults. If Tong hides some words because of outsiders, it is not a good thing for adults, and it is not a good thing for Tong!"

"It should be impossible to be a director, but occasionally I still have time to wake up!" Xu Bai nodded and said slowly.

"That's right!" Tong Xian slapped his face gently: "Cao Qin had inquired about the emperor's condition on that day, but Cao Jixiang was blocked in the palace. He could not find out anything from Cao Jixiang after asking. He guessed that there was, but he was still not sure!"

"What's the point?" Xu Bai's heart moved.

"If the prince ascended the throne without any surprise, it will be something in the past or two years!" Tong Xian said slowly: "The Queen Mother knows this matter, the cabinet should also know it, and the prince should know it more clearly!"

Xu Bai was stunned for a moment, so quickly?

It was already unsurprising that the prince ascended the throne, but he never expected that this would happen so quickly that even he himself was not even prepared.

"The prince has been recruiting talents and preparing to build his own team!" Tong Xian said: "Since the prince's reign, the people who have joined the Eastern Palace have become like crucian carp in the river. Every time the emperor and the ministers have been, everyone can think clearly. If the prince ascends the throne, it will definitely be the new ministers laughing and the old ministers crying. What kind of method to join the prince's disciple at this time is a promising thing!"

Xu Bai nodded. It is understandable that human nature is normal. Didn’t he think so at the beginning? The only difference is that he is much smarter than these people and he also place bets earlier.

"However, these people flocked to the prince, with different quality and different intentions. How could the prince distinguish between these people, which are gentlemen, which are villains, which are capable ministers and which are mediocre officials? However, the emperor's condition is so unbearable. If he did not establish his own team as soon as possible, how could he have the ability and confidence to control the court, and even the entire Ming Dynasty!"

"The prince is racing against time?" Xu Bai said thoughtfully.

Tong Xian was stunned, and savored the meaning of this sentence, and nodded without hesitation.

"But, at this time, shouldn't I beside him? After all, I am by the prince's side, and the prince is easy to use. Isn't it much easier to use than those newcomers?"

"It is because you are easy to use that you put you in Tianjin!" Tong Xian's face showed a smile: "The soldiers of the three guards in Tianjin are now under your control. The Jinyiwei Tianjin Qianhu Institute was also established by you. These things, if you have a slight suspicion and hesitation on the side of the prince, you will not be able to do it. The prince asked you to let go. What does the prince want to do?"

"Support the wings?" Xu Bai hesitated for a moment and said with uncertainty.

"That's right, the prince asked you to come to Tianjin, especially after you made great contributions, he should not be neglecting you, but using you. No matter how the situation in the capital changes, the prince always has you in this capital, and can advance or retreat. This matter should have started after you, Pingbai Lotus Sect in Tianjin. I guess the prince did not think of using you like this at that time, but there must be experts around him who have given you advice. This matter will go with the flow without any fireworks. It should not be underestimated or underestimated!"

"So, now I'm just staying in Tianjin and managing the place well?"

"Otherwise, will the Lord continue to be in charge of the Nanzhen Fushi and become the chief of the Jinyiwei?"
