The big bandit in the Red Mansion robbed Lin Daiyu at the beginning

However, after the imperial court blocked the main roads in and out of Yangzhou, it became even more difficult to circulate supplies in and out.

Listening to Xue Pan's words, Linghu Chong nodded slightly, but his expression was not as ugly as Xue Pan's.

After thinking for a moment, he said,

"The difficulties are only temporary. The Peak Master is in Yangzhou now and will definitely not sit idly by. You and I will just wait and see."

"Also, the inspections inside and outside Jinling City are becoming more and more strict. It's not convenient for me to go out for the time being. Please pay more attention to the news outside."

Xue Pan nodded solemnly upon hearing this.

"Don't worry, brother Chong, I understand!"

After working together for many days, Xue Pan is now a completely different person from the playboy who was addicted to vulgar interests in the past.

Especially since the last time Niu Ben, Shi Lei and others left the city, he mentioned to Linghu Chong the proposal to strengthen the emotional connection between the Xue family and Qingfeng Village. After receiving a satisfactory response,

Xue Pan's only thought was to make the Xue family glorious and powerful again. The changes from the inside out really surprised everyone around him.

Suddenly someone knocked on the door.

Xue Pan frowned slightly, looked up and asked,

"Who? What's going on?"

Someone outside the door said,

"Sir, someone from General Wang's residence has come with a name card, inviting you to come over for a chat."

Xue Pan's expression changed instantly and he quickly turned to look at Linghu Chong.

"Brother Chong..."

Although he has changed a bit these days, he still feels guilty after all.

Being suddenly called out by Wang Ziteng, he was worried that he would be exposed, so he immediately looked at Linghu Chong for help.

Linghu Chong thought for a moment and nodded slightly.

Xue Pan understood and quickly sent the servants outside away.

"Got it, I'll get ready and go right away!"

After the footsteps outside faded away, Xue Pan looked at Linghu Chong nervously.

"Brother Chong, tell me, why did Wang Ziteng suddenly call me over right now?"

"Could it be that he discovered our affair?"

Linghu Chong shook his head slightly with a serious expression.

"I don't know! Although our actions in Jinling are secretive, with such a large amount of material flowing through, anyone with a keen eye would be able to notice it."

Xue Pan scratched his head anxiously.

"Then, what should I do? Should I still go?"

Linghu Chong said calmly,

"Go! Must go!"

"Go and listen to what he has to say!"

As he spoke, Linghu Chong said solemnly,

"I will make all necessary preparations at home. If you don't return within two hours, I will arrange for the ladies and their families to leave Jinling."

"And then find a way to rescue you! But, if it really comes to that, you might have to suffer even more!"

After hearing this, Xue Pan also felt relieved and shook his head with a smile.

"Thank you, Brother Chong! It's just a few more beatings, right? I can handle it!"

Linghu Chong shook his head and said,

"It may not have really come to that. After all, Wang Ziteng has a close relationship with your family. Maybe they just went over to chat."

Xue Pan nodded and said,

"Okay, I understand!"

After Xue Pan left,

Linghu Chong sent someone directly to the back house to inform Xue's mother and Xue Baochai in the mansion to make all necessary preparations.

Although Xue's mother is a woman of modesty, she is also able to grasp the overall situation.

Ever since he made up his mind to let Linghu Chong write a letter to Yangzhou, he had been prepared to go all out.

After receiving the message from Linghu Chong, he went straight to his daughter Xue Baochai.

Seeing that she was burning incense and playing the piano, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Ever since Xue Pan became incompetent in his early years, Xue's mother and her daughter Baochai took on the affairs of the entire Xue family.

Ordinary women from wealthy families all play the piano and read books, living a carefree life.

But his daughter Xue Baochai, for the sake of the Xue family, deals with accounts all day long.

He was immersed in the ways of business at a young age, but Xue's mother was helpless.

Fortunately, the Xue family has already bet on Qingfeng Village.

Thanks to Xue Pan's change and Linghu Chong's help, the mother and daughter can finally stay in the backyard without having to worry about outside affairs in the past few months.
