Although the fact that the Daliang prince went to the south of the Yangtze River was not known to everyone, some prominent people in the south of the Yangtze River still knew it clearly.

Just like Xue Qing, Xue Qing knew that Lin Fan went to the south of the Yangtze River, but because of the reputation of Lin Fan among the people of the world, although Xue Qing had always made some guesses, he never thought about it in this direction.

And now that Xue Qing learned that Lin Fan was the prince of Daliang, the legendary man who would cry when he saw small animals, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. It turned out that rumors were not to be believed.

Just looking at Lin Fan's strategies, Xue Qing didn't think he could come up with them, and do them so perfectly.

There is no need to mention his martial arts. The scene where Lin Fan cleverly defeated Shangguan Ren has already left a deep impression on him. That scene must be spread throughout the world. How could such a person be a waste?

Thinking of this, Xue Qing couldn't help but smile bitterly, but he felt that this was both expected and reasonable, so Xue Qing smiled bitterly and said to Lin Fan: "Brother Lin, you have made me suffer by hiding this."

Lin Fan smiled and said to Xue Qing, "Brother Xue, you still have to be careful when you are out there in the martial arts world. I apologize to you for what happened in the past."

Xue Qing was also a cheerful person and didn't care about these things at all. He just smiled, patted Lin Fan on the shoulder, and kept saying that he wanted to have a few more drinks with Lin Fan.

Lin Fan did not refuse. He and Xue Qing and the others were in the same boat, so he drank a few more glasses with them.

The wedding went according to Liang Zhongshu's plan. Shi Guanghan, who was supposed to be the center of attention, was now ignored. Everyone's attention was now on Lin Fan and Xue Qing.

However, Shi Guanghan did not dare to reveal the slightest bit of his secrets. He could only suppress all his emotions in his heart and not say them out loud at all.

Lin Fan and Xue Qing talked while eating, and gradually their relationship became closer. As they talked, they talked about the scene where Lin Fan cleverly robbed the execution ground.

There is still one scene that Xue Qing cannot figure out, such as when did Lin Fan poison the second barrel of wine to trick Wang Chong.

"That day at the execution ground, your men first drank a ladle of wine, which was enough to prove that there was no poison in it. But why did Wang Chong and others get poisoned afterwards?" Xue Qing asked curiously.

Speaking of this, those who participated in the robbery, whether they were from Lin Fan or Xue Qing, were all very curious about it and were waiting to hear Lin Fan's explanation.

Lin Fan laughed, glanced at Xiang Long, and said, "Let Brother Xiang talk about this matter."

Everyone turned their eyes to Xiang Long, waiting for what would happen next.

Xiang Long just smiled, thinking of Lin Fan's plan, and couldn't help but admire it, so he said to everyone: "It's not that complicated, the medicine is already in the sleeve of the traveler's clothes I was wearing at the time."

"When I was scooping the medicine myself, the medicine in my sleeve did not fall out. It was only after I finished scooping that the medicine slowly fell out, so I fooled everyone."

When everyone heard this, they realized that this was the case and that they should have thought of it earlier, and they couldn't help but feel regretful.

Xue Qing clapped his hands and praised Lin Fan, "Heroes have always emerged from youth. This saying is indeed true."

Lin Fan was very modest. He just smiled and did not dwell on this topic for too long. Instead, he asked Xue Qing: "Brother Xue, given your status, why did you come to the prefect's mansion to attend the wedding of Liang Zhongshu's daughter?"

This is a question that Lin Fan is quite curious about. Xue Qing is the Grand Marshal of the Western Wei Kingdom who can command the entire country's troops. He is definitely the second most important person in the Western Wei Kingdom. How could such a person care about the marriage of a prefect's daughter and come here in person?

Xue Qing just smiled and said to Lin Fan: "We came here to attend the wedding banquet just for convenience. Our purpose has never been to attend the wedding banquet, but to go south."

Xue Qing looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to his conversation with Lin Fan. He then lowered his voice and said to Lin Fan, "The army is already on the way. The reason they entered the city is to supervise Liang Zhongshu's dispatch of food and grass."

Going south? The army is already on the way?

Lin Fan immediately understood Xue Qing's intention, fearing that the Western Wei was going to use military force against the State of Zhao.

If successful, it might affect the world situation. However, for Lin Fan, it is also a good development opportunity. He can take the opportunity to develop himself. Why not?

But at this moment, a quarrel was heard outside the yard.

"Let me in, I want to see the Marquis!"

"What's going on?" Xue Qing frowned. Is there really someone who dares to cause trouble here?

Someone immediately went to check, and soon the person came running back and said to Xue Qing, "Marshal, someone is looking for Master Lin."

Lin Fan was stunned. Someone was looking for him?

Only Chunfang and the others knew that I was here, but Chunfang would not normally send anyone to look for me. Could something big be going on?

Lin Fan said to Xue Qing: "Brother Xue, since someone is looking for me, let him in."

Xue Qing nodded and said to his men, "Go and bring the person over."

"Yes."

Not long after the subordinate left, he soon came back with someone.

Lin Fan knew this man. He was one of the people he brought to Jiangnan. His name was Li Ergou. He was usually responsible for gathering intelligence and was a scout.

Li Ergou was sweating profusely, obviously in a hurry to find Lin Fan.

"What's going on? What happened?" Lin Fan asked with a frown.

Seeing Li Ergou's expression, Lin Fan knew that something must have happened, otherwise Li Ergou would not be so anxious.

"My Lord, there is a letter from the capital." Li Ergou panted, and after he finished speaking, he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Lin Fan respectfully.

For some reason, Lin Fan suddenly felt uneasy, as if something big had happened, so he took the letter and started reading.

After reading it, Lin Fan's face changed drastically.

"Brother Xue, I have something to do and I have to leave first. We will meet again in the future." Lin Fan stood up and clasped his fists towards Xue Qing.

Xue Qing also knew that Lin Fan must have something important to say, so he would not stop him. He also stood up, clasped his fists towards Lin Fan, and said, "Mountains are high and rivers are long. Since Brother Lin has something to say, let's talk about it later."

Xue Qing did not ask Lin Fan what was going on, because Xue Qing knew that if Lin Fan wanted to tell him, he would naturally tell him. Even if he asked at this moment, Lin Fan might not tell him. If that was the case, why should he ask?

"Everyone, we will meet again if we are lucky." Lin Fan said to Hou Deng and Yao Guangxiao again.

"Goodbye."

Hou Deng and Yao Guangxiao said to Lin Fan.

"My lord, what's going on? What happened in the capital?" Zhang Guangzhi asked.
