Chapter 81 Drunk Xiao Liuyuan

When it was getting dark, the whole deer that had been roasting for half a day was finally completely cooked.

The servant in charge of the barbecue cut the meat from the deer leg piece by piece and brought it over. Xie Yunfei put a piece of venison into Li Wen's bowl, winked at Xiao Liuyuan, and said, "Xiao Liuyuan, try to see if it tastes good."

The roasted venison was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the taste was naturally very good. Okay, Li Wen took a bite and said, "It's delicious."

"It's delicious. Eat more." Xie Yunfei gave Xiao Liuyuan another piece of venison.

Another benefit of eating venison is that venison is a nourishing food. For men, it can replenish qi and yang, and it is a good aphrodisiac.

Zhuangzi has good wine and meat here, so Xie Yunfei and the others are not in a hurry to go back to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing. Anyway, the camp is just outside the city. It doesn't matter whether they enter the city or not. They can just go back to the camp tomorrow, so everyone stayed here eating venison and drinking wine.

"Li Zhuangyuan, let me toast you."

"Don't drink, don't drink, you will get drunk if you drink again." Li Wen knew his drinking capacity. After drinking two glasses of wine, his head started to feel a little hot. If he drinks any more, he will be carried away in time.

"Get drunk, what are you afraid of? You're a man, why are you afraid of getting drunk? Come on, let's do it!"

Each of these men had to toast Li Liuyuan. They finally seized this opportunity to meet Li Liuyuan. These rough guys Everyone is in awe of scholars, and at the same time they are curious about scholars.

Today they found that Li Wen, the little Liuyuan, was different from the scholar they imagined, and he did not have the sour smell of a scholar. He didn't even look down on these rough guys, and was willing to sit with them and eat wine and meat. The rough guys were a little reserved at first, but later they realized that Li Zhuangyuan was an ordinary person like them, and they gradually relaxed. Someone else went to toast Xiao Liuyuan, but he didn't expect Xiao Liuyuan to drink it.

This was the first Liuyuan issued by their Dacheng Kingdom. This was the mascot of their Dacheng Kingdom.

When they went back, they drank with Li Liuyuan. Others are envious!

"Drink, who is not a man anymore? Come on, cheers!" We won't go home until we get drunk tonight. "Who is afraid of whom? As soon as Li Wen heard this, his mind began to heat up. He picked up the wine glass in front of him and went to compete with others.

"Hahaha, the number one scholar is so refreshing! "All scholars are like Li Liuyuan, and he must like them all.

When Li Wen put the cup to his lips and was about to drink in, a hand from the side stretched out and took away his cup. Zhao Xiangyi took away the small With the wine glass in Liuyuan's hand, the man said with a calm face, "Okay, don't drink anymore, you will get drunk if you drink any more.

"I'm not drunk! " Li Liuyuan was unconvinced. He stared at the man who took away his wine glass and said, "Give me the wine glass back." "Zhao Xiangyi frowned. Knowing that the boy was drunk, he didn't return the cup to him.

"Give it back to me. "As he said this, Li Wen was about to rush over and grab his cup.

Zhao Xiangyi took advantage of his height and raised his hand. The boy was short and couldn't reach it. Li Wen glanced and saw the cup Zhao Xiangyi put on the table. , turned around to get the other person's wine glass, and saw that there was really good wine in the glass. He drank it in one gulp, and looked at the man with a proud face after drinking it.

If you don't give it to me, I won't drink it from you. Li Wen thought he was really smart. The young man raised his chin and looked proud.

Zhao Xiangyi made a straight line with his lips, put the cup on the table, and sat back down.

Hahaha... ... He was so happy! When Xie Yunfei saw these two people, he was rolling with laughter, and his shoulders were twitching.

He didn't know that Xiao Liuyuan could be so cute when he was drunk, and that their boss was unprecedented. He can care about people, but this is not the cold-faced evil spirit he knew on the battlefield.

"No more!" "Li Wen shook the wine jar, but not a drop of wine could be poured out. He looked at General Zhao longingly.

"Since we've finished drinking, let's finish it here today. "After the young man drank, his little face turned red. Zhao Xiangyi knew that the young man would collapse if he drank any more. He naturally had wine here, but he would not let anyone take it out again.

Zhao Xiangyi looked at Xie Yunfei and the others , Don't think he didn't see Xie Yunfei's shoulders moving when he laughed just now. Is it so funny? Zhao Xiangyi said, "Okay, you guys are almost done drinking. You have to go to the camp tomorrow morning. Let's

fight in the AR Zhongdian SlU girl." 111-"

"Yes. "Xie Yunfei saw that Xiao Liuyuan was drunk by them, and knew that their boss meant to protect Xiao Liuyuan. He had almost drunk the wine today, and Xie Yunfei agreed, "Then let's stop drinking. We have to go to the camp tomorrow morning. Let's have a drink together next time. "

When they heard what their boss said, none of these people dared to make trouble.

"Hiccup... Oh, you have to go to work tomorrow, so don't drink. "Li Liuyuan was already drunk, but he still acted like a normal person. When he heard others explain that he had to go to work tomorrow, Li Liuyuan burped

and said, "No, don't drink anymore, let's change tomorrow. If you continue, others have to go to work tomorrow, so it's not good if you get drunk.

He took a leave of absence to go back to his hometown to visit relatives. "Hiccup--" He came back to work two months later and could sleep in...

It was great!

"Yes." Military Master Xie smiled so hard that his fox eyes crinkled.

It was already dark at this time, all the lanterns in the corridor were lit, and they were still drinking and eating meat in the yard. By now the wine was finished and the meat was almost eaten. Xie Yunfei knew it was time for them to leave.

"There's nothing going on at the camp. You guys will stay here tonight and go back to the camp tomorrow." Zhao Xiangyi said.

"Yes." Xie Yunfei's eyes fell on the drunk Xiao Liuyuan. Who would send Xiao Liuyuan back to the house? Zhao Xiangyi looked over at the same time. The drunk boy was looking up at him. Zhao Xiangyi said, "I'll take him back to the house, and you guys can go and have a rest." "

Yes." Xie Yunfei said goodbye. All of them, who were familiar with each other, went to look for a place to stay, and it was clear from a glance that they usually lived here in Zhuangzi.

Li Wen was still there, waving to the people leaving and giggling.

"Let's go, I'll take you back to the house to rest." Zhao Xiangyi easily supported the boy's arm with one hand and helped him up. Li Wen still remembered that the city gate was closed. If he could not enter the city, he could not return to his home. Today he could only live in other people's homes.

"Brother, where is my room? Just tell me and I'll go alone." Others helped him, but Li Wen wanted to push away their hands, "I can go alone."

The man said expressionlessly, "I'll drink I'm drunk, please help me."

This is true.

Li Liuyuan, who was usually smart, also believed it now. He chuckled and said, "I knew you weren't as good at drinking as me...

"..." General Zhao didn't say anything when he heard Li Liuyuan's words.

Zhao Xiangyi didn't have the courtyard where he lived exclusively in Zhuangzi . Instead of placing people in the courtyard next to him, he took Xiao Liuyuan to the courtyard where he lived and asked his servants to clean up the guest room next to him. Even though Li Wen was drunk now, he still remembered to take a shower before going to bed. , clamoring to take a shower, "I have to take a shower. I can't go to bed until I take a shower..." If the boy was still a little sober just now, he was completely drunk from the wine he drank now.

Perhaps after drinking, Li Wen felt that his whole body was heating up and he wanted to soak himself in water. His whole mind was a little excited. He seemed to know what he was doing, but he didn't know what he was doing...

"Okay, I'll send someone to bring a bathtub." Zhao Xiangyi ordered his men to move a big bathtub. The bathtub came into the house and the servants poured buckets of hot water into the bathtub. The housekeeper arranged for two boys to come over to serve him. Zhao Xiangyi waved his hand and said, "You can go out. I'll be here."

"Yes." The housekeeper took the two boys out without asking anything, and closed the door smoothly. opened the door.

Li Wen staggered over, taking off his clothes as he walked. Zhao Xiangyi wanted to go out, but when he saw the young man walking unsteadily, the man frowned and said uneasily, "Can you wash it yourself?"

"Just taking a shower, of course, but... okay!" Li Liuyuan took a long time to untie the belt around his waist and threw it to the ground. Once the belt was untied, it was easy to take off the clothes on his body. In a few seconds, he took off his clothes and threw them to the ground.

Zhao Xiangyi's eyelids were twitching when he saw the young man stripping off all his clothes in front of him, leaving a bare back for him.

This was not the first time that the boy had taken off his clothes in front of him. Counting to count, this was already the third time. This reminded him of the last inspection before entering the audition. The boy took off all his clothes without hesitation in front of him and stood naked in front of him for him to inspect.

The boy's skin is very white and tender, his figure is slender, and he has a sense of frailty that belongs to a young man.

The young man had a very thin waist, two round and perky buttocks, and very long legs...

He didn't think much about it at the time, but now that he saw the young man's naked body again, it was superimposed with the images in his memory. For some reason, Zhao Xiangyi suddenly felt that his throat was a little dry, so he said, "You wash up, I'll go outside, just shout if you need anything."

After saying this, Zhao Xiangyi turned around and planned to go out.

''Okay...'',

"Bang!"

The person who was about to climb into the tub slipped, and his head hit the edge of the tub, making a loud

noise.

"Careful!" "Zhao Xiangyi, who was walking towards the door, heard the sound and turned his head before he could fly over. He watched the boy hit the tub. Zhao Xiangyi was so frightened that his heart tightened. Several men strode forward. , grabbed the young man and asked, "Where did you hit it? "

Ouch...it hurts..." Li Liuyuan covered his forehead, his eyes were red from the pain, and he hit his forehead...

"Let go and show me." "Zhao Xiangyi took the boy's hand away, and a big piece of it turned red.

"It hurts so much. I hit my head. Will I knock my head stupid?" "Li Wen looked at the man in front of him with an aggrieved look. He sniffed and rubbed his forehead. He gritted his teeth in pain and almost shed tears.

"...No, it will be a little red for a while. Just give you some medicine. Forget it, let me help you. "Zhao Xiangyi sighed in his heart and had no choice but to stay. The man picked up the boy and put him into the bathtub easily. Li Liuyuan got into the bathtub smoothly. Otherwise, he had to climb this place by himself. The bathtub is half a person's height, so I might have to fall down a few times.

"It's so comfortable! "Sitting in the tub and soaking in the warm hot water, the boy let out a comfortable sigh. Li Liuyuan leaned on the edge of the tub, exposed his back, closed his eyes and said, "Kid, wipe your back. .

Are you treating him as a little slave who serves him? !

The corner of General Zhao's mouth twitched, and he had no choice but to pick up the towel in the water and wipe the young man's back. Touching the young man's smooth and tender skin, Zhao Xiangyi felt a stream of heat rushing down his lower body, which made him feel a little dumbfounded. Why didn't he know that he would still have feelings for men before?

The boy's skin is so soft and smooth...

completely different from rough guys like them who have thick skin and thick flesh.

Zhao Xiangyi knew that he should curb these random thoughts in his mind that he shouldn't have. This was a blasphemy to the young man and a betrayal of the young man's trust in him. The young man in front of him is a close disciple of Master Fu, Li Zhuangyuan, whom many women in the capital want to marry, the first Liuyuan from their Dacheng Kingdom, and the person designated by His Highness the Crown Prince...

Li Liuyuan enjoys Zhao The young general was dissatisfied with the man's service and said he was too strong. "It hurts, be gentle..."

When the young general Zhao, who was thinking wildly, heard the words, he relaxed his hand a little, and the young man soaking in the tub was being served. He felt comfortable and fell asleep on it.

Seeing the sleeping boy, Zhao Xiangyi flashed a smile and said, "You dare to order me around. " He reached out and pinched Xiao Liuyuan's nose, then lifted the person out of the water, put him on the bed in the inner room, and covered him with a quilt.

"Little fox, he is my little fox, hehe..." The sleeping boy dreamed of his little fox. He grabbed General Zhao's hand and gave it to him with his cheek.

"..." General Zhao

pulled his hand back from under the boy's cheek. He forgot to give the boy medicine and ran away, not forgetting to close the door when he went out.

The boy on the bed closed his eyes and slept peacefully.

After leaving the door, Zhao Xiangyi did not go back to his own room. I practiced swordplay outside the yard until midnight. I was sweating. After taking a cold shower, I went back to his room and lay on the bed to rest.

"Pf-"

He slept in the room with the boy next door . The room was separated by a wall. Zhao Xiangyi just lay down on the bed when he heard a thud from the next door. The martial arts practitioner has good ears. Hearing the sound from next door, Zhao Xiangyi had to get up and go to the next door. Go over.

When he opened the door and went in, he saw that the boy had rolled up his quilt and fell to the ground. He was still asleep and had not woken up.

"..." Zhao Xiangyi stepped forward, picked up the boy, and put him back on the bed. He moved a little further inside.

He just returned to the room where he was sleeping when he heard another thud from the next door. Having experienced the first time before, he didn't have to think twice to know that the boy fell off the bed again. This reminded him of the time they lived together in the same bed in the inn. He thought that the boy ran to him because he was afraid of the cold at night, but it seemed that this was not necessarily the case, so

Zhao Xiangyi had to go to the next door room and take the person there. After carrying

the person to the bed, Zhao Xiangyi did not leave immediately, but stood in front of the bed, so he witnessed with his own eyes the process of the sleeping boy rolling out of the bed. He rolled up the quilt all the way and almost fell off when he rolled to the edge of the bed. Zhao Xiangyi reached out to catch him and stopped him from falling again. So

what should he do?

Next, Zhao Xiangyi was carried back to him and put on his bed. He was lying outside.

This time, the sleeping boy also rolled out and encountered an obstacle that blocked his progress. , he moved over and hugged the obstacle, and even stretched one foot into the other person's legs. Needless to say, he was sleeping in a ecstasy.

"..." General Zhao opened his eyes.

Chapter 82: Abused to ashes

"Knock knock——"

"Master Li, are you awake?" The boy waiting outside the door heard the noise coming from the house, knocked on the door gently, and asked. 0

"Come in." Li Wen just woke up and was sitting on the bed. He looked around the room and saw the things placed in the room. He felt that the room did not look like a guest room, but more like the owner lived in it. room.

Li Wen still remembered that a group of them were drinking last night. Everyone kept toasting him, and he drank a few too many drinks, so he was so drunk. He must have drunkenly drunk later, and now a large section of his memory about last night was blank in his mind. He had no memory of how he walked back to the room and went to bed to sleep.

So he shouldn't have done anything weird last night when he was drunk, right?

In fact, in his previous life, when he was in college, he once went out to a party with a group of boys in his dormitory, and was made drunk by his roommate. That time when he was drunk, he hugged the boy in the dormitory and shouted a song all the way back. Fortunately, the boy in the dormitory filmed him with his mobile phone. For this, the people in the dormitory laughed at him for half a month. After that time, he no longer dared to drink so much outside.

What if I did something embarrassing when I was drunk, but I would be too embarrassed to even go out to meet people.

Li Wen reached out and rubbed his face. Sure enough, he shouldn't have drank so much.

"Hello, Mr. Li." The door was pushed open from the outside. The boy put the washbasin on the shelf and washed the face towel to wipe his face. Li Wen took the face towel and said, "I can do it myself. Now."

There is a set of crescent-white robes beside the bed, which should be the clothes prepared for him.

Li Wen picked up the clothes and compared the sizes on his body. The clothes were suitable for his size. They should be prepared for him. The clothes were on, and the size was just right. I could see the owner's thoughtfulness. After putting on the clothes, he started to tidy up his clothes. He opened the door and walked out of the room.

It was still early at this time, not long after dawn.

Outside the city, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant. You can smell the chirping of birds everywhere. Listening to these sounds of nature makes people feel very good.

He hadn't seen Zhao Xiangyi since he woke up, and he wasn't too familiar with Zhuangzi Li Wen. He didn't know where to go when he left the room, and he didn't know where Zhao Xiangyi was. Fortunately, there was a boy following him. Li Wen turned around and asked the boy following him, "Where is your master?"

"Sir, our young master will practice martial arts in the martial arts field after getting up in the morning." The boy replied truthfully.

"Oh, let's go over to the martial arts training ground and have a look." Li Wen said.

Yesterday, Zhao Xiangyi agreed to teach him martial arts, but when they came back from hunting prey, they were busy barbecuing and drinking, and forgot about it. It just so happened that Zhao Xiangyi was practicing martial arts at this moment. He could ask General Zhao for some tips and learn.

Li Wen followed the path pointed by the young man and went to the martial arts training ground. He heard the sound of the long sword dancing in the distance. Saw the figure on the martial arts training ground. Walking to the martial arts training ground, Li Wen did not disturb the men practicing martial arts in the martial arts training ground. He stood on the corridor and watched General Zhao practicing his sword with interest.

He had always known that Zhao Xiangyi's martial arts was very good, but To what extent it was better, he didn't quite know.

"What?"

The long sword in Zhao Xiangyi's hand cut through the air. The sword seemed to be alive in his hand. The man's sword-dancing movements were smooth and flowing, seeming to cause the surrounding air to change, with the man as the center. , the aura around him vibrated outward.

Li Wen stood here. From such a distance, he could hear the sound of the long sword dancing in Zhao Xiangyi's hand. His eyes followed the man on the martial arts training ground. Each of the man's moves was sharp and powerful, full of power. It's completely different from the showmanship he plays. But the opponent's sword dance was definitely more beautiful and charming than his, making him unable to take his eyes off it.

"Okay!" Li Wen couldn't help but clapped his hands when he saw the man sheathing his sword.

This set of swordsmanship is really wonderful!

Zhao Xiangyi put away his sword and looked up at the young man standing on the corridor. He knew it from the moment the young man appeared here. He barely slept all night last night. He went to the martial arts training ground early in the morning to practice swordsmanship, and he has been practicing until now.

After practicing the sword for such a long time, the man's breathing was not messy at all.

"Come here." Zhao Xiangyi saw the boy's admiration for him from his eyes.

This was not the first time that he had seen this kind of look on him in the eyes of others, but there had never been a time when he felt as happy as he did now because of the appreciation and adoration of others.

Hearing this, Li Wen walked over and said hello to Zhao Xiangyi, "Good morning, Brother Zhao. Have you gotten up so early to practice martial arts?"

He could tell that Zhao Xiangyi had not just started practicing, but he might have been practicing for a while. .

"Yeah. Just woke up?" Zhao Xiangyi nodded, put the long sword in his hand back into the scabbard, pulled out a sword from the shelf next to him and threw it to Li Wen. Li Wen subconsciously reached out and grabbed it. .

"Haha, yes, I didn't see you when I woke up. I knew you were practicing martial arts here, so I came here." Li Wen didn't know why Zhao Xiangyi threw a sword to him, and asked him to show him a set of sword skills. See? Li Wen felt a little hesitant. With his three-legged cat skills, wouldn't he be able to do whatever he wants in front of Zhao Xiangyi? No wonder.

This was entirely Li Liuyuan's overthinking, and General Zhao had no such intention at all.

Zhao Xiangyi took a step back and said, "Didn't you ask me to practice martial arts with you yesterday? It just so happens that I will practice with you."

"Come on, attack me with the sword in your hand."

Brother, are you serious? Li Wen asked Zhao Xiangyi with his eyes, thinking that the other party was joking with him.

Zhao Xiangyi was not joking, but really asked the young man to attack him with a long sword.

He saw in the other person's eyes that he really asked him to use the sword to kill him. Li Wen weighed the sword in his hand and found that it was quite reset. The long sword shone with a cold light. It was a real sword. How about we switch to wooden swords?

Safety first, completely first.

"Come on! What are you doing standing there?" Seeing the young man standing there motionless, General Zhao frowned and asked.

"You asked me to chop you, so I'm not polite." Li Wen held the sword in his hand and slashed at Zhao Xiangyi. Zhao Xiangyi turned sideways and easily avoided it.

At first, Li Wen was still a little hesitant and didn't dare to make a move. Gradually, he realized that Zhao Xiangyi was just playing with him like a cat teasing a mouse. The sword in his hand didn't even cut the opponent, but even touched the corner of the opponent's clothes. None.

Go ahead!

You're just playing with him, right?

"Come again!"

"You haven't eaten, have you? You're so weak that you have no strength at all." Zhao Xiangyi saw that the young man's hand holding the sword had no strength at all. He easily avoided the young man's sword while instructing him on what to do. Drawing the sword, "Draw the sword, be fast, ruthless, and accurate."

"Just like you, if the enemy stands in front of you and lets you cut, the sword in your hand can't cut others."

Li asked later. His eyes became more and more serious. He followed Zhao Xiangyi's instructions on how to draw the sword. At first, he just held the sword and chased the opponent to chop without any rules. Later, he gradually got the hang of it.

It was not that Li Wen didn't know martial arts at all. When he was a child, he learned several sets of boxing skills from his master. He also practiced spear and sword skills. However, at that time, martial arts training was just about practicing martial arts, and he did not practice martial arts with the intention of attacking others. idea, so he didn't know how to use it after practicing martial arts.

In the following years, he even went to Nanyang to study. His master was also missing, and there was no master around to guide him in martial arts. If he hadn't insisted on getting up and practicing boxing every day for these years, he would have forgotten how to fight, let alone make any progress in martial arts.

''Bang! ',

the sword in his hand was knocked out.

"Go and pick up the sword. Martial arts practitioners, the sword is with you, but you can't even protect your own sword. How can you go into battle to kill the enemy?" The young man was weaker than he thought. Zhao Xiangyi accompanied the young man to practice for a while. If you know how to do it, you will know that although his movements are more than dexterous, he lacks endurance, his sword movements are too slow, and the sword he swings has no strength at all.

With the young man's little martial arts skills, any enemy could take down the young man, let alone hurt him.

Li Wen gritted his teeth and went over to pick up the sword. He had forgotten how many times the sword flew out of his hand. The act of bending down to pick up the sword made him feel pain in his back.

Usually Ah Chen and Ah Wu would practice martial arts with him. He wouldn't feel so tired even after practicing for an hour on weekdays. They must have let him go! It was less than half an hour now, and he felt that his waist could not stand straight.

Speaking of General Zhao, can't you let it go?

Li Wen bent down and picked up the sword. Li Wen held the sword and looked at Zhao Xiangyi. The two looked at each other. He raised the sword to chop the other person, "Ahhh..."

Bastard, let's see if I don't chop you to death!

"Orbit!" Not surprisingly, the sword was knocked out again.

I don't know how long it took...

"I can't do it, I can't do it..." Li Wen finally collapsed on the ground, and the sword in his hand was thrown aside. He was too tired to move, and he was sweating. It was flowing like water, and the clothes on his body were soaked with sweat.

Li Wen raised his head and looked at Zhao Xiangyi. Compared with his embarrassment, the other party looked like he had not even messed up his clothes.

"..." Li Wen.

Sure enough, there is no harm without comparison.

The difference in force between the two is too big, and they were tortured into scum. Li Wen felt that his life was disillusioned. Please let him lie down!

Zhao Xiangyi stood In front of the young man, he looked down at the young man sitting on the ground. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he felt inexplicably happy. General Zhao stretched out his hand to Li Liuyuan and said, "Let's stop here today. The rest. Let's practice another day. "

Although the young man is a little worse than he thought, because Li Liuyuan is a scholar, he cannot ask Li Liuyuan like his soldiers, so let's let Li Liuyuan go for the time being.

We have to practice another day. Li Wen put his hand in Zhao Xiangyi's hand ,

let General Zhao hold his hand, and stood up with the help of his strength, swaying on his feet and almost falling down.

"Be careful! "Zhao Xiangyi stretched out his hand to catch the young man and said.

"Haha..." Li Wentian laughed and said, "Well, my feet are a little weak, brother, please lend me a hand. "He didn't know that it was such a tiring task to kill people with a long sword. All the energy in his body was really used up, and he even needed help to walk.

"I'll just practice more in the future. "General Zhao said lightly.

"..." Li Wen thought that he should not come here again.

The sun rose slowly from the east, and the sunlight hit the two people.

Zhao Xiangyi took the young man to the yard where he lived . , they each went inside to change into clean clothes, and then came out to sit outside and have breakfast together. Xie Yunfei and Zhang Mingyu and their group had gone back to the camp early in the morning, so Zhao Xiangyi and Li Wen were the only ones at the moment. The two of them sat together for breakfast.

"Brother Zhao, have Yun Fei and Ming Yu gone to the military camp? "Li Wen asked without seeing Xie Yunfei and the others.

"Yeah. "Zhao Xiangyi responded.

"Brother Zhao, are you going to the military camp soon? "Li Wen was afraid that he wasted other people's time and others were busy. From yesterday's conversation with Xie Yunfei, Li Wen knew that after Zhao Xiangyi returned to the capital, he took up a post at the camp in the suburbs of Beijing. Xie Yunfei and the others followed Zhao Xiangyi in the suburbs of Beijing. The camp

on the outskirts of Beijing is the closest military camp to the capital.

It can be seen that even though the emperor is afraid of the Zhao family, he still has a certain degree of trust in the Zhao family. Otherwise, General Zhao would not have been sent to the northwest to guard the border. Zhao Xiangyi entered the camp on the outskirts of Beijing after returning from the border. If the emperor had not trusted the Zhao family, he would not have placed the father and son in such important positions

. Just go and have a look later. Zhao Xiangyi saw what the young man was thinking and said, "Let's eat first." "

There is a large plate of sour buns, sesame cakes, three or four kinds of fine pastries on the table, as well as two or three side dishes and porridge. The small table is full.

"Eat. "Zhao Xiangyi glanced at the young man and asked him to use his chopsticks. He took a big steamed bun and started eating it.

Li Wen glanced at the food on the table. It was obvious that several exquisite snacks were prepared for him. Seeing Zhao Xiangyi grabbing a steamed bun to eat, he also reached out and grabbed a handful of big steamed buns, took a sip and said, "Well, Xiang

doesn't know if it was because he practiced swordplay for a while and spent a lot of energy on it now. My son was so hungry that everything he ate tasted delicious. A mouthful of sour bread, a mouthful of vegetables, and a mouthful of porridge were more delicious than anything else.

He took a bite of some exquisite pastries and didn't like them too much.

The two of them finished off a large plate of steamed buns. Li Wen also ate one sesame seed pancake, and Zhao Xiangyi ate two. All the side dishes were eaten, leaving a few plates of exquisite snacks. Li Wen tasted them, but Zhao Xiangyi couldn't touch them. bump.

"Brother Zhao, it's time for me to go back, so I won't disturb you anymore. Thank you for your hospitality." After breakfast, Li Wen knew that he should go back. He had not been home all day yesterday for fear of the children at home. The girl will be worried about him.

He has stayed in other people's homes for so long. Others have other things to attend to. It's not good for him to stay here any longer.

Zhao Xiangyi nodded and said, "I'll have someone take you back, so I won't take you back to the city myself." ."

"Okay." Li Wen didn't care. He knew that others were going to be busy.

When the two of them went out together, Zhao Xiangyi arranged a carriage to take him back, and Zhao Xiangyi himself rode a horse to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing. Li Wen didn't forget to take his little fox with him. He carried the little fox in his arms and rode a carriage into the city.

Chapter 84:

Two days after setting off to return to his hometown

, two carriages stopped in front of the courtyard. The carriage in the back was full of things, and the carriage in front was empty.

When it was time to go back, Li Jinwan decided not to go back with her brother this time. They had discussed this matter yesterday. When they were about to prepare to leave, Li Wen asked again, "You really don't want to go back with us? It's not too late to change your mind now." "

Brother, I have already decided. I won't change my mind." Li Jinwan shook her head and said, "I'll stay here to look after the yard and wait for you to come back." When she thought about the long carriage ride back and forth, Li Jinwan couldn't muster the courage to follow them. It wasn't long before she arrived in the capital, but her fear of riding in a carriage had not yet passed.

In addition, she has been making spices recently, and now she finally has some ideas. She wants to continue making spices here. Otherwise, she will have to start all over again next time she comes, and all the previous work will be in vain.

"Actually, there's no rush for the spices. You won't be in a hurry to do it after we get back from home." Li Wen knew that the little girl had been obsessed with refining spices recently. They planned to open a shop here in the capital, but It was postponed because he had to go home to visit his relatives.

It's hard to find suitable shops here in the capital. Shops in good locations are very expensive and he can't afford them. It would take some time and effort to find a suitable shop, so the matter of opening a shop could only be dealt with after he returned to the capital.

"Brother, I know 3." Li Jinwan understood that her brother wanted her to go back with him, but she still didn't want to go back. Now that the decision was made, she had no intention of changing it at the last minute, "Brother, let's go. Don't worry about me, nothing will happen to me, Yingchun Magpie, Aunt Wu and the others."

She rarely goes out on weekdays, so nothing can happen to her at home.

"Well, since you don't want to go back, then if you want to go back next time, I'll ask someone to take you back." After making sure again and again that his sister didn't want to go back with him, Li Wen wouldn't tie him back with a rope. .

After he returned to his hometown to visit relatives this time, he would not be able to go home until three years later. After he became an official in the court, he would no longer be as free as before and could go wherever he wanted.

But the girl at home is different from him. If she wants to go back, she can go back at any time. She just needs to arrange for someone to take her back when the time comes.

Li Jinwan took a food box and handed it to her brother and said, "Brother, this is what I prepared for you to eat on the road. Brother, please go back and say hello to my uncle and aunt for me, and tell me about my father and mother-in-law." , I'm fine here, so they don't have to worry about me."

Her father and mother had not liked these sisters since she was a child. Li Jinwan used to think that it would be better if she were a boy, maybe her father and mother would be happy. Mom will also care about her a little bit. It's a pity that she has been a girl since she was born. This is a fact that cannot be changed. In the past, she would still expect the love of her parents, but now she doesn't care about those things.

After all, Li Jinwan still had resentment towards her father and mother-in-law. If it weren't for her mother-in-law's persecution, she wouldn't have fled home and ran outside.

"Silly girl, I understand." Li Wen took the food box and asked someone to take it to the car and put it away.

The family was full of women, so Li Wen didn't feel at ease, so he let Ah Wu stay in the capital. He only took Ah Chen and Li Tong back with him.

The carriage was waiting outside. It was almost time and it was time for Li Wen to leave.

"Brother, have a nice trip. We'll wait for your return in the capital." Li Jinwan stood at the door and saw her brother off.

"Okay."

Li Wen got on the carriage, waved to the person who saw him off, and lowered the curtain.

At the intersection on the way out, he met up with Lu Zhishu's carriage and horses, and the group of people went to the city gate.

It would be sunny now Early in the morning, the city gate has just opened, and outside the city gate are people and caravans lining up to enter the city. There are not many people leaving the city. The vendors on the street are setting up their stalls, and the bun shops on the street are open. There are meat buns steaming in the steamer, and you can smell the aroma from a distance. Pedestrians passing by will pay for two meat buns to eat.

"Stop, little boy, go buy two steamed buns." "The person in the carriage said aloud.

"Yes, Master. "The child got off the car and walked quickly to buy buns from the bun shop.

When the child bought the buns and went back, the stopped convoy continued to move forward.

At this time, there were not many pedestrians, cars and horses in the city, and the roads were smooth. They were very They successfully left the

city gate. At this moment, there was a team waiting to escort them back.

The imperial court had clearly designated the honor guard team for the number one scholar to return to his hometown to visit his relatives. They were worried that something might happen to the number one scholar on his way back home. According to the regulations. In previous years, the imperial court would arrange a team of officials to escort the number one scholar back to his hometown to visit his relatives, so this is why Li Wen had to wait until three days before leaving for his hometown.

"Brother Zhao, Yunfei, why are you here? "Li Wen saw Zhao Xiangyi riding on the horse, and Xie Yunfei and Zhang Mingyu who were following Zhao Xiangyi. There were several people here. They had drank together two days ago.

As soon as Benxiu saw him, he went to him After walking over, Li Wen stretched out his hand to touch Ben Xiao and said hello to him. The man on the horse lowered his eyes and looked at the young man sitting in the carriage.

"We are here to see the champion back. My dearest friend. "Xie Yunfei got off his horse and winked at Li Liuyuan and said.

Anyway, they have nothing to do. The capital has been calm recently, with no foreign enemies invading and no rebellious ministers and traitors causing trouble. The emperor's body is quite strong, and he can let several princes turn over. Without any trouble, they took the time to send Li Liuyuan back to his hometown, and stopped by Liuyuan's hometown to see what a place with outstanding people it was that could produce a Liuyuan champion

every three years . There is no six yuan. If the feng shui of that place is not good, or if there is smoke coming out of the Li family's ancestral grave, how can there be one six yuan?

"..." Li Wen looked at Xie Yunfei and was speechless. Are you overly qualified? Huh?

He is a small sixth-grade editor, but he wants a fourth-grade General Mingwei to send him? Li Wen didn't know who had the idea. The man on the horse tried to read something from his face,

"I have seen Mr. Zhao. "Lu Zhishu got off the carriage and saluted Zhao Xiangyi.

Seeing Lu Zhishu salute Zhao Xiangyi, Li Wen remembered that the other party had a higher official position than him. In the future, when he became an official in the court, he would salute anyone with a higher official position than him. When he saw the emperor, he had to kneel down and bow down. When he thought about the strict hierarchy in feudal society, where a higher official could drive someone to death, Li Wen immediately felt heartbroken. Should he also pay a courtesy to Zhao Xiangyi?

"Editor Lu, there is no need to be polite. I am sending Li Liuyuan back to his hometown to visit relatives according to the Holy Spirit's decree. When I am away from home, I keep all the etiquette simple. You don't need to follow these etiquettes when you see me in the future. "Whatever the young man was thinking was written on his face. A smile flashed in Zhao Xiangyi's eyes and he said, "If there is nothing else, let's set off immediately. "

"yes. "Lu Zhishu stood up and returned to the carriage.

"Oh, let's go then. "Li Wen invited Lu Zhishu to ride in a carriage with him. The two of them could still talk and didn't feel bored on the road. Zhao Xiangyi glanced at the two people in the carriage, turned the horse's head, and made a gesture. The rider behind him The soldiers on horseback followed.

When the carriage followed, Xie Yunfei led a few people to follow behind the team.

A group of carriages and horses left the capital and headed towards Nanyang.

They would pass through Nanyang Mansion on their way back. Li Wen planned to go to Nanyang first to see his teacher, and then transfer to a big boat in Nanyang to go back home. In this way, he can save nearly half a month of travel, and he can stay at home for a few more days with the extra time.

As long as it doesn't take too long, just return to the capital within the budgeted time.

In the past, when the number one scholar returned to his hometown to visit his relatives, the honor guard that followed them would go back bustling and bustling all the way, so that local officials, gentry, and the common people knew that this was the number one scholar returning to his hometown to visit his relatives. When you come out to pay your respects, people will also come to watch the excitement.

This time, Zhao Xiangyi temporarily took over other people's work and replaced the guard of honor that sent the number one scholar back to his hometown with his own people. Zhao Xiangyi didn't even know about the rituals involved in sending the number one scholar back to his hometown to visit relatives, and Li Wen himself didn't even know. .

In the team, Military Master Xie, who knew all the rules for the number one scholar returning home to visit relatives, remained silent. Zhishu Lu also knew these rules, but both of them remained silent.

Zhao Xiangyi has been marching and fighting for many years and is used to keeping everything simple on the road. Following General Zhao are a group of his subordinates, all riding behind him.

Their team was composed of a group of men, and there were no women to follow them, so there was no need to worry about the women being tired due to the long journey, so they traveled much faster.

There are usually a few horses running in front, followed by a carriage in the middle, and a few horses behind are the finale, raising smoke and dust all the way.

The carriage went so fast on the road that Li Wen was jolted to death while sitting in the carriage. After being held in the carriage for a long time, he would also run out and ride the horse for a while. Although he really wanted to ride Benxiao with Zhao Xiangyi, he thought that two people riding on the same horse would add a lot of weight, so he was reluctant to sit on Benxiao's back and chose another horse. Traveling with Zhao Xiangyi.

Li Wen didn't even expect that he and Zhao Xiangyi were strangers who had met twice a few months ago. He met Zhao Xiangyi on the way to Beijing to take the exam. The first time he got lost in Yizhuang, it was Zhao Xiangyi who helped him. The second time they met a robber in the inn, Zhao Xiangyi once again pulled him out of the gate of hell.

Before he came to Beijing, he was just a scholar. In the palace examination, he was selected as the number one scholar by the emperor, and he was also given a number one palace. The number one scholar's residence given to him by the emperor has been approved and is located in Dongcheng District. It was originally an official's residence. Now he is given the title of number one scholar's residence. It can be regarded as the emperor's preferential treatment for him, the young number one scholar. You must know that in previous years No one has ever been given the title of Number One Scholar by the emperor, and he is the first one.

However, there has never been a Liuyuan among the top picks in previous years, which shows that the emperor likes this Sixyuan.

Someone from the Ministry of Works had come to him before to confirm the renovation of the mansion. Li asked the people from the Ministry of Works to see which courtyard he had visited. The courtyard was good, but no one had lived there for many years, and it was already dilapidated. It may take half a year to move in at the earliest, or even three or two years at the earliest. After Li Wen negotiated with the people from the Ministry of Industry, he asked the people from the Ministry of Industry to repair the house in a simple way. The wood did not need to be the best wood. He drew a drawing and asked the people from the Ministry of Industry to replace the doors and windows according to his requirements. , the overall repair is complete.

Repairing the mansion requires spending money. The Ministry of Revenue will not allocate too much money, and he does not have that much money in his own pocket, so it is enough that the courtyard is repaired and can be lived in. Li Wen does not have any requirements for this. Not high.

As for how to modify it, he can just arrange it according to his own preferences after he moves in.

If we just keep everything simple and repair it, maybe it won't take half a year to repair the Zhuangyuan Mansion for him to live in.

Anyway, he has a place to live now, so Li Wen is not in a hurry and lets the people from the Ministry of Works do it slowly. Even if the people from the Ministry of Works wanted to delay the construction for three to five years, they didn't know how to explain it to the emperor, so he was not worried that the people from the Ministry of Works would delay it. Maybe the people from the Ministry of Works wanted to do it faster than he did. Repair the yard and do business.

Before going to the capital, he was just a minor official. After the examination, he became the number one scholar and was awarded an official position, although he was only a sixth-rank minor official. This was a huge change in his identity.

And with Zhao Xiangyi, they were just strangers to each other not long ago, but now they have become friends.

Li Wen also didn't expect that Zhao Xiangyi would be the one sending him back when he returned to his hometown. They rode horses side by side on the way. On the way back, I met all my friends and acquaintances, so I didn't feel bored all the way back. There were many happy things on the way, and I laughed and laughed along the way. The journey went by very quickly.

When the procession of the number one scholar returning to his hometown to visit his relatives passed by, the local official was still puzzled and asked the master next to him, "Didn't you say that the procession of the number one scholar returning to his hometown to visit his relatives was already on its way? Why didn't the team of the number one scholar come to visit us?"

"This...maybe it hasn't arrived yet?" The master didn't know why.

Along the way, the local officials and rich country gentry were waiting for the number one pick to return to his hometown to visit his relatives. I heard that this year's number one pick was a young man who was not as good as the weakest boy. He had six yuan that was rare in a hundred years. Many people were worried. Waiting to meet Liuyuan. People who have unmarried daughters at home are even more anxious, looking forward to meeting Liuyuan.

Many people were waiting to see the No. 1 pick, but no one saw the No. 1 pick's team returning home to visit relatives passing by.

What these people don't know is that the number one scholar returning home has already passed...

Chapter 85 Birthday

They set out at the end of April, and they were still on the road at the beginning of May.

The fifth day of May is Li Wen's birthday. Over the years, Lu Zhishu has always remembered his friend's birthday. Every year in April, he would carefully select a gift and send it back to his friend. Over the years, there has never been a missing year.

Naturally, on his birthday, he would also receive a birthday gift from Li Wen. No matter what Li Wen asked someone to give him, after Lu Zhishu received it, he would keep it as the most precious gift.

They used to study in two places. Over the years, they remembered each other's birthdays, but they had never spent them together. It may have been many years since Lu Zhishu personally delivered the gift prepared for him to him.

Before setting off, Lu Zhishu calculated that they would be on their way back home on the day of his friend's birthday, so he prepared gifts for Li Wen in advance.

On the day of Li Wen's birthday, Lu Zhishu was finally able to personally deliver the gift to his friend.

"Huh? Zhishu, what is this?" Li Wen saw the box appearing in his hand. In fact, he had completely forgotten that today was his birthday. They had been on the road every day in the past few days, and he had completely forgotten what day it was.

"Have you forgotten?" Looking at the young man's appearance, Lu Zhishu knew that this man had forgotten his own birthday, and he said, "Think about it again."

"Haha... I remembered it. If you didn't say that I would have forgotten it myself, it would be thanks to you that you remember my birthday every year and carefully prepare a gift for me." Li Wen thought for a while and then remembered that today is the fifth day of May. It turned out to be his birthday, so this was a birthday gift prepared by his friend for him. Li Wen looked at Lu Zhishu's eyes full of sincerity and said with a smile, "Zhishu, thank you."

Over the years when he was studying abroad, sometimes he forgot his birthday when he was busy, but every year he would mark his birthday before his birthday . A few days ago, I received a gift from Lu Zhishu.

"Can I open it and take a look?" Li asked, a little curious about what was inside the box.

"Yeah." Lu Zhishu nodded and responded.

Li Wen opened the box. Inside was a string of jade wind chimes. When he lifted it up, the wind blew the chimes and made a tinkling sound, which was clear and sweet.

One look at this string of jade wind chimes and he knew that it was an expensive thing. This gift was too expensive, but he could also see that the other party had carefully prepared such a gift for him. So even though he knew that this gift was too expensive, Li Wen couldn't refuse it, because he knew that if he didn't accept it, he would not only let down his friend's heart, but also make his friend unhappy.

"It's very beautiful, I like it very much." Li Wenzhen accepted the gift prepared by his friend, although this gift was indeed a bit expensive. But since it was what the other person wanted, he could just accept it. The next time Lu Zhishu asked, he would carefully prepare a gift for him.

Reciprocity is a courtesy, but it is not polite to reciprocate. Even between friends, Li Wen also pays attention to reciprocity.

In the past, he was not a person who liked to take advantage of others, and now he would not only take advantage of the benefits given by his friends, but stingyly give others a small share. Even if others were willing to give it to him, he would not feel comfortable with what he received.

Of course, no matter what, this does not affect their friendship over the years.

"As long as you like it." There is nothing better than carefully preparing a gift for the other person, and the other person's love makes you feel happy for it. Lu Zhishu's face showed a faint smile.

Li Wen didn't know how to say that Lu Zhishu was a nice person. His family had money and he was generous to his friends. If he hadn't met him, others might have regarded him as someone who was taken advantage of.

You fool! Li Wen hugged Lu Zhishu and said thank you.

"No need to say thank you, as long as you like it." Lu Zhishu said.

There was another person who remembered that this day was their young master's birthday, and that person was Li Tong, Li Wen's personal little book boy.

Zhao Xiangyi learned that today was the boy's birthday from Li Wen's little book boy, but he didn't know it before, so he didn't prepare any birthday gifts for the boy. Knowing that today was the boy's birthday, General Zhao made a note of it in his mind.

After Xie Yunfei knew that today was Li Liuyuan's birthday, he calculated it with his fingers.

His master is a fortune teller who occasionally goes out to tell people's fortunes under the banner of Ribanxian. In the past, he learned a little bit about fortune telling from his master. He didn't learn the ability to know the past, but he only told fortunes and measured people. I still have the ability to tell the eight characters.

Today is the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, a yang month and a yang day in a yang year. I don't know Li Liuyuan's birthday. I just don't know when Li Liuyuan was born? If Li Liuyuan was born in the yang year, yang month, yang day, yang hour, it would be a really good day.

No one outside knows that the eldest young master of General Zhao's Mansion was born on July 15th, which happens to be the lunar month of the lunar month and the lunar day of the lunar year. He is the fate of the evil star. Xie Yunfei's eyes almost popped out of his head when he found out about their boss's birthday, so it's no wonder that no matter how many women the madam told their boss, all kinds of things happened that caused death or injury before they even started.

When it comes to controlling his wife, it's really not unfair to their boss at all.

It's just that this fate is not bad. The fate of being rich and responsible, and coming from a general family, is destined to be the fate of a general. But one thing is, this wife is probably really difficult to marry. But it is not completely impossible. If you can find a woman born in the yang year, yang month, yang day, yang day, and marry her, your husband and wife will definitely be harmonious, have a complete set of children, and be rich and responsible.

Ever since he knew that their boss had a very yin fate, Xie Yunfei had been looking for a very yang woman who was born in a yang year, yang month, yang day, yang day. If such a woman can be found, I believe that the old lady will try her best to arrange a marriage for their boss no matter what.

But now he has found someone with such a destiny, and the person is not a woman, but a man. Xie Yunfei didn't even know what to say to Liu Yuan, who had just been selected as the number one scholar by the Holy Emperor and returned to his hometown to visit his relatives. According to Li Liuyuan's good fortune, maybe Li Liuyuan has a very yang fate. This should be placed in the emperor's home. It is the emperor's destiny.

And even if Li Wen was just born in a farm family, he could still be said to have been a child of a farm family. At a young age, he was the first person in the primary and secondary schools to be the leader of the provincial examination, the Hui Yuan in the joint examination, and the first person to be selected as the number one scholar in the palace examination. Six yuan, a six yuan that has never been found in a hundred years.

Maybe without a trip to Li Liuyuan's hometown, Xie Yunfei could probably figure out why Li Wen was able to win six yuan in a row. If he couldn't get the top prize even with such a fortune, Xie Yunfei would roll up his baggage and go back to work as a fortune teller with his master carrying the sail.

"What do you want to say?" Zhao Xiangyi asked when he saw Xie Yunfei staring at him.

"No, I didn't say anything." Xie Yunfei touched his mouth. Could he have accidentally said something he shouldn't have? He couldn't help but sigh in his heart again, why isn't Li Liuyuan a woman? It would be nice if it was a woman...

It would be nice if it was a man from a good family, but it would be better if he were not the number one scholar...

Military Master Xie shook his head and sighed without knowing it, and he didn't even talk much on the way.

On

this day, they arrived at Source City at sunset and stayed in the largest inn in the city.

Yuancheng is the largest city on the way from Beijing to Nanyang. The last time Li Wen went to Beijing to take the exam, he had been here, so he still had an impression of this place.

"I didn't know that today was your birthday, so I didn't prepare anything for you in advance. Fortunately, when we arrived here today, I asked the people at the inn to prepare some wine and food for you. Don't mind, I will prepare a good gift for you later. " Zhao Xiangyi asked someone to prepare a table of good wine and food, but he still took Li Liuyuan's birthday to his heart.

"No, no, no, this is already very good. Why do I need to give any gifts?" Li Wen's eyes lit up when he saw a table of good wine and food. There were chickens, fish and meat, and he couldn't help but swallow. Swallow your saliva, it looks delicious.

You must know that in order to rush along the way, they squeezed the three-day journey into two days, and they were running wildly all the way. His buttocks are calloused, let alone food. Sometimes he doesn't have a place to live, so he stays in the wilderness for a night.

Fortunately, there are many martial arts masters among them. Even the bandits on the road will probably hide when they see them, let alone any short-sighted people who come to provoke them.

"You all sit down, all sit down, what are you doing standing there?" Li Wen saw that everyone was standing but not sitting down. He hurriedly waved to everyone to sit down. He sat down, grabbed his chopsticks and went to the big plate of chicken. He took a chopstick and put it into his mouth. He narrowed his eyes happily and said, "Well, it's really delicious."

He just wanted to take a bite of hot food, a bite of meat, and a bite of good food . That's all, this request is very simple...

But on the way, everything is just a cloud!

"Sit down." Seeing the boy's eating look, Zhao Xiangyi curled up his lips and sat down next to him. Lu Zhishu sat on the right side of Li Wen, and Xie Yunfei followed him and sat down on the opposite side.

They ate in the wing upstairs, while the others ate in the lobby on the first floor.

After taking the first bite of meat, Li Wen never stopped holding the chopsticks in his hand. He ate the meat and pancakes deliciously.

"Eat slowly, no one will compete with you." Zhao Xiangyi was still worried about whether people would eat it. Choked too quickly.

"Uh-huh..." Although he was nodding, Li asked not at all slow.

The consequence of eating too fast is that the stomach is stuffed with too much food without even reacting, so it is full later.

But even if he was full, he felt satisfied...

There were many businessmen coming and going in Yuancheng, and there were also many people staying in hotels. There were more than thirty people in their group, and there were not that many vacancies in the inn, so it was best for them to just stay If two or three people can fit into one room, they will be able to live comfortably.

"Brother Zhao, I just need to live in the same room with you, so that we can have one more room for others to live in." Knowing that there were not enough rooms, Li Wen offered to share a room with Zhao Xiangyi.

The reason why he said he was in the same room as Zhao Xiangyi was because he had lived with Zhao Xiangyi before. So Li Wenbing said that we are all old roommates anyway. Isn't it the same as staying once or two or three times?

Zhao Xiangyi did not object, which was regarded as acquiescence.

Lu Zhishu pursed his lips and said nothing.

So when the rooms were allocated in the evening, Li Wen and Zhao Xiangyi lived in a room, Lu Zhishu lived in a room with his personal servant, and the rest of the people were also divided into twos and threes and shared a room, so that they all stayed in the inn. Just settled in.

Chapter 86: They stopped

in Source City. They planned to stay here for one day and wait until the next day before continuing on the road.

Yuancheng is a place where caravans from the north and south travel. It used to be just a small village. Later, because the caravans passed through this place and the exchange and circulation of goods drove the development of this place, it gradually developed. Arrived in today's big city.

The last time they went to Beijing to take the exam, they also passed by this place, but that time because they were in a hurry to leave, Li Wen didn't have the chance to visit this place. It just so happened that they were passing through this place again this time, and they took advantage of this opportunity to stroll around the city and walk around. Maybe they would have such leisure time to walk around in the future.

There are various small stalls on the street selling everything.

Li Wen was very interested in the items sold at these stalls. The items sold at these stalls were cheap, and most of them were people from nearby villages who brought their items to the city to sell them in exchange for some money to support their families.

When he sees something interesting, he will pick it up and take a look.

If he likes it, Li Wen will also spend money to buy one. These things may not be very good, and they may not be of any use if he buys them back. His main purpose is to take this opportunity to talk to these small vendors and ask about this place. The customs and customs of these people, the lives of these people, etc.

Often, as long as he started talking, these stall owners would chat with him non-stop, and Li Wen listened carefully to what others said.

There has been less rain this year. It's already May, and it hasn't rained a few times in half a year.

In previous years, it would only be so hot after mid-May. This year, it was already so hot at the end of April and early May. The main reason is that there is not much rain and the sun is strong, which makes people feel very hot.

The old man sighed, "If God doesn't give me a favor and it rains, I'm afraid the crops in this field will not survive...

From the old man's words, I can hear the old man's worry.

This is not only the old man's worry, but also the worry of the Dacheng Kingdom." The worries in the hearts of millions of ordinary people who work on the land.

Farmers work hard all year long just to produce some food from the fields so that their families can eat. If the year is not good, the food in the fields will be lost. Less. The court's tax revenue increased year by year, and the land could not grow any food. The court's taxes were in arrears. When the time came to pay the court's taxes, they would have no food to eat, and the family would have to starve to death

. Life is not easy.

But in this era, for these ordinary people living at the bottom, no one cares about how they live. What do they really need to be

by Li Wen's side ? , he was not interested in the things on these stalls, but he patiently accompanied the young man step by step. Zhao Xiangyi and Xie Yunfei stood not far behind the two of them, and they could hear it with their ears. Li Liuyuan's conversation with others.

"Old man, you have to believe that as long as you work hard, things will get better. "Only when one has hope can one persevere. Li Wen left a message and left with Lu Zhishu.

Zhao Xiangyi and Xie Yunfei followed behind the two of them.

As they walked, they looked at the people passing by on the street and heard the noise in their ears. The sounds of vendors shouting, the sounds of bargaining, caravans pulling goods rushing through the crowded streets, shouting, "Let, let, let...

all kinds of sounds are mixed in my ears and in front of me. The lively scene formed a three-dimensional picture.

"As kings and officials, if we don't go where the common people live, we will never know what kind of life the common people live." Even at this moment, when they were walking on the street, they could clearly see some things about the common people. What is the living situation like? Li asked this sentence out of emotion.

It's just that no matter what era we are in, there are not many people in power who can really care about how people live their lives. They are more concerned about their own interests.

When Lu Zhishu heard Li Wen's words, he paused and said, "Well, you are right.

" We can understand this truth, but it may be difficult to actually do it. "It is very difficult to really do something for the people. Li Wen looked back and thought about Lu Zhishu's decision to leave the capital and become a local official. He said, "Zhishu, I thought about it later. You said you wanted to leave the capital and become a local official. I thought about it when I went back later, and I support what you said. "

"If we sit in the capital all the time, we will never know what the lives of the people are like and what the people really need. The people, the people, they are the real foundation of this country. If a country only has a king and ministers and no people, how can it be called a country? Therefore, it can be said that without people, there is no home,

let alone the existence of a country.

"We people have studied hard for ten years and finally passed the Jinshi examination. Why do we want to become officials in the court? " If you don't serve the people as an official, you might as well go home and farm, am I right? Therefore, no matter what we do in the future, we must not forget our original intention of becoming officials. When I stay in the capital for three or two years, I may find opportunities to visit places. "

A long time ago, Li Wen had thought about what kind of official he would be and how he would become an official if one day he could pass the Jinshi examination and become an official in the court. After the imperial examination, they ranked first, first and third. Several of the famous people have been awarded official positions. After returning home to visit relatives, they will really want to become officials in the court.

If they thought that being an official was only something that might happen in their future, now. This has happened, and they now have official positions, so they have to start to face this problem, what kind of officials they want to be, and how to become officials,

regardless of whether they will be officials in the capital in the future . Going to work in a local area is just a change of place. People who really do things for the people can do things for the people no matter where they are. However, they can only do things for the people if they know the lives of the people. What do they want so that they can better perform their duties and do what they should do?

"Listening to your words today is better than ten years of studying for me. Ah Wen, I am far inferior to you. "After Lu Zhishu listened to his friend's words, he knew in his heart that he was far inferior to the young man. Whether it was in reading or knowledge, the young man had already figured out some things that he had never thought about.

Now after listening to his friend's words, He suddenly felt enlightened.

"Haha, I just said it casually, just listen to it. There is nothing about you that is not as good as me, you are so excellent. "Li Wen did not agree with Lu Zhishu's last sentence. In his eyes, Lu Zhishu was a very outstanding person. In modern times, people like Lu Zhishu would definitely be absolute academics.

Without people, there would be no family, let alone country. ? Xie Yunfei touched his chin when he heard what Li Liuyuan said. He felt that what Li Liuyuan said was reasonable. He thought that it was indeed the first Liuyuan from Dacheng. He would think of such a profound level at such a young age. It's a pity that

the officials in the court have been officials for half their lives and don't know why they are officials. They spend their whole day either thinking about fighting for power or how to get more benefits from the people. Think about it. It's so sad!

"What kind of official do you think Li Liuyuan will be in the future? Xie Yunfei approached Zhao Xiangyi and asked.

Zhao Xiangyi glanced at Zhao Xiangyi, looked forward, and said, "You will know in the future." "

..." Xie Yunfei, it's better not to say this.

Well, let's wait and see in the future. Xie Yunfei is a little curious about how Li Liuyuan will become an official in the future.

Caravans and horses come and go in the city. This is the place where merchants from the north and the south pass. All the goods they bring pass through this place. People gather in this place, so naturally there are all kinds of people.

"We will go to Cloth Village to have a look later." Li Wen saw someone wearing green cloth. The reason why he was so impressed by the green cloth was not only that the green cloth came from his hands, but also that the green cloth came from his hands. The texture of the cloth is thicker than ordinary cloth, and the color is darker.

He has been away from Nanyang for several months. In the past six months, he has been preparing for the scientific examination, so he has not paid attention to things in Nanyang. Naturally, he does not know the current situation in the textile workshop. The workshop only officially started operations two years ago, and it has been half a year now. In just a few months, the green cloth has been sold to Yuancheng. I wonder if it is available in the capital.

"Okay." Lu Zhishu only thought that Li Wen wanted to go to Buzhuang to buy cloth, but he didn't know what he was going to Buzhuang for.

As a group of them were walking on the road, Lu Zhishu and Li Wen saw that they were young masters from a wealthy family.

The two little beggars on the street corner had already noticed them. They looked at each other and walked towards their target.

Li Wen and Lu Zhishu were walking in front, talking as they walked, so they didn't have much idea of ​​the people around them.

Two little beggars bumped into them, and they subconsciously moved out of the way. The moment they passed each other, a dirty little hand reached out to the jade pendant hanging on Lu Zhishu's waist.

"Boy, stealing is not a good habit." Li Wen caught the kid who was stealing things with clear eyes and quick hands. The kid was also holding a jade pendant in his hand, which was exactly the one hanging on Lu Zhishu's waist. I had my things touched twice before, so when I encountered this situation on the street, I naturally kept an extra precaution to avoid having my things stolen every time.

People get stolen goods together, so they can't rely on them even if they want to!

When Lu Zhishu touched it, he realized that the jade pendant on his waist had fallen into someone else's hands, and he frowned.

"I...I, I didn't steal anything, you, please let me go..." The thief didn't expect that she would be caught on the spot, and she immediately struggled to leave.

When the fellow thief saw something was wrong, he quickly ran away.

The little thief lowered his head and bit the wrist of the person holding him, and Li Wen subconsciously let go of his hand.

Chapter 87

As soon as the little beggar let go of her hand, the little thief ran away, but before he even took a step forward, he was grabbed by the collar and caught.

"What's going on?" Zhao Xiangyi grabbed the little thief by the collar, grabbed him, and asked.

"This kid stole something and dared to bite someone. Please return the jade pendant." Li asked the little thief if he wanted the thing back. Are the little thieves these days too arrogant? Even if he was caught stealing something, he would bite him. Fortunately, he could shrink his hand quickly, otherwise he might lose a piece of meat with this bite.

"Bring it here." Zhao Xiangyi stretched out his hand and looked at the person with a pair of sharp eyes, making people dare not disobey. The thief returned the jade pendant in his hand. Zhao Xiangyi took the jade pendant and gave it to Li Wen. Li Wen returned the jade pendant to Lu Zhishu and said to Zhao Xiangyi, "Forget it, let him go."

"If you don't learn well at a young age and walk too much at night, something will happen to you. You You met us today. If you meet someone else, both of your legs will be broken." Li Wen saw that the other person was only about ten years old, and the clothes he wore were all patches. His face was so open that he couldn't tell what he looked like.

He was just a poor child, and he had no intention of embarrassing the other party, so he asked Zhao Xiangyi to let him go.

Hearing this, Zhao Xiangyi let go.

The little thief pursed her lips and glanced at the boy who was letting her go. She got into the crowd and disappeared immediately.

There was such a small incident on the road, but it did not affect their interest in shopping.

There were some jugglers on the street. Li Wen asked Lu Zhishu to stand aside and watch for a while, then he clapped his hands and shouted along with the spectators, and then he gave some money and went out. Just passing by a cloth shop, Li Wen turned around and said, "Let's go inside and have a look." He walked inside, and a few people behind him followed him in.

"Please come in, please come in."

"What kind of cloth do you want to buy, young master? This is a batch of silk materials that we have just bought into our store. There are several colors and styles. Let's see if you like it." The shopkeeper in the store saw the business When he came to the door, he immediately enthusiastically recommended several good fabrics and said, "Our new batch of materials are selling well, and customers who come into the store like to buy them."

Li Wen reached out to touch the materials, nodded and said, "It's good. It's quite slippery."

But he didn't come here to buy cloth today. Li Wen glanced at it and saw the green cloth on the side. He reached out and touched it to confirm that it was made by the workshop. Green cloth, he asked, "Shopkeeper, how do you sell this cloth?"

"The cloth the young master got is cheap." The shopkeeper quoted a price. Seeing the young master's dress in front of him, the shopkeeper's price was better than that of the young master. Usually the quotation is a few cents too high.

"Are these cloths from your local area or from other places?" Li Wen nodded. The transportation costs, manpower and material resources on the way from Nanyang to here are combined. The price is still reasonable, but it is already higher than theirs. The original price was several times higher.

"Oh, these green cloths are all shipped from other places, we don't have them here yet." The shopkeeper saw that the price of these cloths was cheap, so he bought a batch of goods. Not long after they were put on the shelves, half of them were sold. The next time someone brings this kind of cloth, he plans to buy another batch.

The width and length of these green cloths are larger than ordinary cloths, and the price is cheaper than ordinary cloths. Although the material is rough, it is thicker than ordinary cloths.

"Young Master, the kind of green cloth material you brought is not suitable for you to make clothes. Young Master, look at the materials here. The material is smoother than those made of cloth. It is just right for summer wear." The shopkeeper He strongly recommended those silk cloths just now. These silk cloths are expensive and the price is high, so naturally he can make more money.

Li Wen made some inquiries and learned from the shopkeeper that these cloths were from other places. It seems that this kind of cloth is only available in Nanyang and not elsewhere. This kind of green cloth is relatively popular among ordinary people because it is cheaper.

After spending most of the day in the store asking questions, he felt a little embarrassed if he didn't buy anything, so Li Wen asked, "Well, it's not bad. Do you have ready-made clothes in your store?" Generally speaking, cloth shops in large towns Only ready-made clothes can be sold. The cloth shops in small places only sell cloth, and there are few ready-made clothes for sale.

However, because Yuancheng is still a relatively large town, this cloth shop sells ready-made clothes.

When the shopkeeper heard the young master asking about the ready-made clothes, he smiled and said, "Yes, yes, please come upstairs."

When they walked out of the cloth shop, each of them had bought a suit of ready-made clothes.

It was already noon. They found a place to have a meal in the city before going back to the inn where they were staying. This time in the afternoon is when people are most sleepy. After eating outside, Li Wen just wanted to go back to his room and take a nap.

"Boss, do you want me to take care of it?" Xie Yunfei asked in a low voice.

"Don't pay attention." Zhao Xiangyi had long discovered that someone was following them all the way. He was just a little beggar. In his eyes, he was no different from an ant on the ground. He didn't take such a small thing seriously.

"Yes." Xie Yunfei glanced back from the corner of his eyes and withdrew his gaze.

The little beggar who was following behind thought that no one had noticed her, so she followed to the outside of an inn. When she saw the group of people walking in front entering the inn, she took a look outside and found a place to hide.

They stayed in Yuancheng for a day. Everyone got up the next morning, had breakfast in the inn, prepared some more dry food, and were ready to set off.

"Get ready to leave. Everyone, please get your things."

"Let's go."

The carriage has been parked outside. Although riding in the carriage is very uncomfortable, it takes a long time because he doesn't ride a horse often. The skin on the inner wall of his thigh was worn out at one point, so Li Wen had no choice but to give up riding and sit back in the carriage obediently.

Just as he was about to get on the carriage, he was startled by a small figure jumping out from beside him.

"Who are you?" Zhang Mingyu reacted first and blocked the little beggar who appeared out of nowhere with his sword.

"Young Master, please take me with you. I want to follow you." The little beggar waited outside the inn all night and finally saw the young master who let her go yesterday.

The little beggar has been wandering on the streets since she was young, surviving by begging for food. She has no family or friends, and she doesn't even know who her parents are. When the little beggar got a little older, she learned to steal from the beggars who were older than her. She lived by stealing things on the street and exchanging the stolen things for money.

Yesterday they were stealing things on the street and were caught red-handed. Her accomplice who stole things with her abandoned her and ran away. She was caught alone. At that time, she thought she was going to be sent to the government, arrested and imprisoned, but she didn't expect that the other party let her go.

Later, she saw them coming out of a restaurant and followed them all the way to this inn. She couldn't get in, so she stayed outside the inn all night. The little beggar didn't know why she stayed here, so she waited here all night.

It wasn't until I saw them coming out this morning and preparing to leave that the little beggar ran out.

"Little...little, boy, why are you here?" Isn't this the little thief who stole their things yesterday? Why did he come here and say that he would follow them? Li Wen's mind started to react.

"Little Master, I want to follow you." The little beggar had a dirty little face and a pair of particularly beautiful eyes.

"You want to go with us? Do you know who we are? We just follow people casually." Li Wen couldn't help laughing and asked, "Aren't you afraid that we are bad people and sell you out? Change money?"

"You are a good person," the little beggar said anxiously.

"Okay, even if we are good people, we can't take you away casually, right? If you want to follow us, does it have anything to do with whether we are good people or not?" Li Wen didn't expect that he would be merciless yesterday, and today there will be one The little beggar came to the door and wanted to follow them.

He was really a simple child, not afraid of being abducted and sold, and would follow others casually.

Zhao Xiangyi got on his horse, glanced at the little beggar lightly, and then looked away.

"Boy, go back to your parents. They will be very sad if you disappear. We are leaving, so don't follow us." Li Wen didn't know where this child came from, so he asked stupidly If he follows them, he won't be afraid that if he disappears, his family will worry about him.

It's not like a child said he wanted to follow them, they could take people away casually.

Li Wen got on the carriage, and persuaded the little beggar to go home, and said to the coachman outside, "Let's go. "He doesn't know that the little beggar has no family, otherwise he wouldn't have said such words to ask him to go back to his parents.

"Let's go!"

The man on horseback made a gesture, and Zhao Xiangyi turned his horse around and walked in front.

The little beggar stood there, watching the carriage drive away from her, her eyes red.

Gritting his teeth, the little beggar was heartbroken and followed him.

The city gate opened early in the morning, and there were many caravans and people lining up here waiting to leave or enter the city. Their carriages and horses left the city smoothly. The clever little beggar blended in with the crowd and followed him out.

As soon as they left the city, the carriage started running faster. Li Wen and Lu Zhishu, who were sitting in the carriage, did not know that there was someone following them. Zhao Xiangyi and Xie Yunfei, who were riding on horseback, knew that someone was following them,

but they had no intention of taking the little beggar away .

"Brother Yunfei, that little beggar is still following us, are we?" Zhang Mingyu looked back and said, It's a bit unbearable.

Seeing that the carriage in front was going farther and farther, the little beggar who was running behind was about to be unable to catch up. The little beggar fell hard to the ground. The little beggar got up from the ground and continued to chase.

But no matter how hard she tried, the two-legged horse could not catch up with the four-legged horse, and fell far behind. The carriage and horse in front walked farther and farther until they could no longer be seen...

Big tears It fell down and fell to the ground...

"Da da da..."

A horse turned its head, and the man on the horse ran towards the little beggar. "Yu Yi" Zhang Mingyu reined in the horse's rope and saw The little beggar, whose legs were covered in blood after falling, cursed, "Troublesome little thing.

"Let's go, don't you want to follow us? " "Zhang Mingyu stretched out his hand to the little beggar and said.

The little beggar's eyes were stained with tears and looked even brighter. The little beggar reached out and grabbed the handed hand, and then got on the horse.

"Drive..." After Zhang Mingyu picked up the little beggar, he rode his horse to catch up with the convoy in front. However, when he went back, there was a half-year-old child in front of him. Zhao

Xiangyi found that Zhang Mingyu had brought a child back and did not say anything.

When he stopped to rest along the way, Li Wen was a little surprised when he saw the little beggar in the team and asked, "Who brought this child? "The little beggar seemed to have identified him. As soon as he saw him, he moved in front of him. When Lu

Zhishu saw the little beggar appearing here, he was also puzzled as to why he appeared here.

"Master. "The little beggar stared at Li Wen with sparkling eyes.

Li Tong, who was following their young master, looked at the little beggar who appeared out of nowhere with his eyes warily, for fear that this little beggar might be interested in him. His young master did something bad.

"Yes, I brought him here. "Zhang Mingyu touched his crotch, and it was him who took the initiative. He saw the child running behind him, but he couldn't bear it, so he rode back and picked him up. Zhang Mingyu said, "I asked just now. He has no parents or other relatives, so let's just accept him. "

"May I have your name? "Li Wen glanced at Zhang Mingyu, and there was nothing he could do to blame him. Li Wen turned to look at the child in front of him and asked 3

"My, my name is Xiaoyue. "The little beggar's name was given by the old beggar. The old beggar was gone when she was seven years old. After the old beggar died, she was on her own. As long as she could remember, she had been following the old beggar. The old beggar who brought her up

was the only one who knew that she was a girl. He told her not to let others know that she was a girl, otherwise she would be sold to her family. Xiaoyue knew that being a prostitute was not a good thing. She would rather be a beggar on the street than go to a brothel to be a prostitute and accompany those men.

So until now, she has been working as a thief on the street with Xiaoyue . None of the accomplices who went to steal things knew that she was a girl. In addition, Xiaoyue always dressed like a boy and her face was always dirty. No one had seen her face. Naturally, those accomplices did not know that she was a girl. We don't know she is a girl anymore.

But can she let the young master know that she is a little girl? Or should she not tell the young master?

"How old are you? Are you alone?" Where are your parents? "Li Wen asked.

Xiaoyue shook her head. She didn't know. She didn't know how old she was this year. She didn't know where her parents were and why they didn't want her.

Li Wen asked a few more questions. Seeing that this child didn't know anything about it. He looked like he didn't even know where he came from. Li Wen had a headache, so he had to say, "Forget it, if you want to follow, just follow. Little boy, get Xiaoyue something to eat.

"Yes, Master Li Tong went to bring Xiaoyue dry food and water.

They rested for a while on the road, and after eating dry food, they continued on the road.

Chapter 88 Returning to Nanyang

When they arrived at the place where they stayed at night, Li Wen asked the child to get two clean clothes. He handed the clothes to the dirty-looking child and said, "You can take these two clothes for now. It may be a little too big to wear. You can only buy clothes when you go to a bigger town and buy two suitable clothes for you. "

No one among them is the same height as Xiaoyue. This child. Probably due to malnutrition, coupled with his young age, he is thin and small. Xiaotong is the smallest among them, half a head taller than Xiaoyue, so this dress will definitely be too big for Xiaoyue to wear.

But they couldn't find clothes suitable for Xiaoyue here, so Li Wen had to ask Xiaotong to get two pairs of clothes for him to wear. Now that they had decided to keep the person, Li Wen couldn't bear the thought of a dirty kid following them around. He was still a bit of a germaphobe.

"No, no need, this is already good." Xiaoyue took the clothes stupidly, thinking of how dirty she looked, and the clothes on her body were in tatters and covered with pudding, and she blushed. Fortunately, her face was so dirty right now that it was hard to tell what it looked like, and no one could tell she was blushing.

"Since you have decided to follow me, you must listen to me in the future. Otherwise, I will ask someone to send you away." He doesn't have any rules, but he is not completely unruly. Li Wen didn't mention the child's past stealings, nor did he ask about his past. He believed that people are not born bad, it must be caused by the acquired environment and various factors.

It doesn't matter if people have done wrong things in the past, what's important is that they should correct themselves in the future.

But if this person brings unnecessary trouble to him, Li Wen will not keep him by his side, so if he wants to stay by his side, he must be prepared to stay.

"Yes, yes, Master, please don't drive me away, I will definitely listen to you." Xiaoyue immediately became nervous when she heard that Master would send her away.

"I'm not driving you away now. If you want to stay, just behave well. I'm not a very demanding person, so you don't have to be too nervous." He has given you the opportunity. As for whether you cherish it or not, it's up to you. By myself.

Li Wen told the child next to him, "Xiaoyue will leave it to you. If Xiaoyue doesn't understand something, you are responsible for telling him."

"Yes." Li Tong looked at the other person with scrutinizing eyes. , he had always been the only one serving the young master, and now there was suddenly another person. The boy was a little wary of the other person, fearing that the other party would take away his job of serving the young master.

But at the same time, he felt that everything had to come first, and he came first, and the other party came later. He had been with the young master for so long, and the young master must be more accustomed to him.

However, it wouldn't be a bad thing if there was one more person to serve the young master. Thinking of this, Li Tong looked at Xiaoyue with a much kinder look, and wanted to train him well so that he could serve the young master well with him.

At this moment, Li Wen didn't know what his little book boy was thinking. He handed him over to the little book boy to take care of him, and at the same time he also told the child, "Xiaoyue, if there is anything you don't understand, or if there is anything else, , just ask Xiaotong, Xiaotong will help you."

"Well, Master, Xiaoyue knows." She knew that the young master was a good person. After the old beggar left, no one would be so kind to her. Yue's eyes suddenly turned a little red, and she sniffed, thinking that she would follow the young master, work hard, and not give the young master a chance to drive her away.

After leaving the people to Li Tong to arrange, Li Wen stopped caring about them.

When Lu Zhishu saw that his friend had taken in the thief who stole his things that day, although he didn't agree with it in his heart, he didn't say anything against it.

"Do you think it's weird that I left him here?" Even though Lu Zhishu didn't say anything, Li Wen still saw doubts in the way the other person looked at him. He smiled and said, "He's just Just a poor child. I believe that if given a choice, everyone would want to be a good person. It's not terrible if he goes the wrong way, as long as he is willing to correct himself and try another way." "

Since he chose to follow. I, I will give him a chance, maybe it is just a word to me, but to that child, it may change his life."

So this is the reason why Li Wen is willing to keep him. Not only does he see this child as pitiful, but he also sees how smart this child is. A smart person may achieve something on the right path, or he may go to extremes on the wrong path.

If giving the other person a hand could change the child's life, Li Wen was willing to extend such a hand and give the other person a hand.

This is the truth that no one can make mistakes without being a sage or sage.

Hearing Li Wen's words, Lu Zhishu nodded and said, "If you want to keep the person, just keep him." This was equivalent to agreeing with Li Wen to keep the person, and he was not happy with the little beggar at all. No more.

Li Wen had a smile on his face, and the two looked at each other. Lu Zhishu looked away and looked away.

Regarding the extra person in the team, after Zhao Xiangyi judged that this person did not pose any threat to Li Liuyuan's safety, General Zhao did not even spare a look at him.

There were more than thirty people in their group. Whenever they stayed at an inn, there were often not enough rooms, so they usually shared a room with three or two people. Li Wen stayed in the same room with Zhao Xiangyi all the way. The two of them became regular bed partners on the road.

Li Tong felt relieved that their young master had chosen someone else to live with him.

As long as their young master went to cause trouble for others and not him, he didn't want to have a good sleep in the middle of the night and be kicked out of bed. He would rather sleep on the floor than share the same bed with his young master. But every time the young master would pull him to sleep on the bed together. If the young master hadn't closed his eyes when he took him out of bed in the middle of the night, the child would have suspected that their young master did it on purpose.

Living in the same room as Zhao Xiangyi, when Li Wen woke up in the morning, he was the only one in the bed. Zhao Xiangyi got up early. The two had lived together so many times, and Li Wen had never heard the other party complain about his poor sleeping posture. Li Wen even suspected that his sleeping posture had been corrected since he and Zhao Xiangyi shared a room.

When he woke up in the morning, Li Wen found that he was still in bed. He had a good night's sleep and was in a good mood the next day.

"You... who are you?" When he went downstairs the next day and saw Xiaoyue appearing in front of him, Li Wen still didn't recognize the child. The child's clean face was white and clean. With a big little face and a pair of big eyes, I didn't expect to pick up such a good-looking child on the roadside.

He is just a little small, skinny, and looks malnourished, but thinking about the days the child lived before, it would be good to survive. How well can he be raised?

It doesn't matter. If you give him more food in the future, he will gain weight sooner or later. That's it, Li Wen decided in his heart.

Li Wen stared at the child's face, but he always felt that something was wrong?

"Young Master." Xiaoyue changed her name to Young Master. When she saw the Young Master staring at her, she lowered her head with a guilty conscience.

"Haha, doesn't it look good after you wash your face? It's good." Li Wen only thought that the other party was shy and didn't think about anything else. He said, "Find a place to sit down and have something to eat. , we will set off after dinner."

Seeing that the seat between Zhao Xiangyi and Lu Zhishu was empty, Li Wen sat down and said hello to everyone, knowing that it was reserved for him, and started eating breakfast. .

After breakfast, they were on their way.

Satsuki stayed successfully.

Xiaoyue always felt a little nervous about sharing a room with Li Tong at night, but after staying there for a few nights without anyone noticing anything, Xiaoyue let go of her nervousness.

Near mid-May, they arrived at Nanyang Mansion.

The long journey from Beijing to Nanyang usually takes about fifteen to twenty days by carriage. Because the carriages and horses on their road moved very fast this time, they arrived at Nanyang Mansion in less than half a month.

Their carriage entered the city and while walking on the busy streets, Li Wen lifted the curtain and looked outside, seeing the familiar scenery on the street. It was clear that he had been away for a few months, but he felt as if he had been gone for several years. Li Wen sighed and said, "I really miss this place. I have only been gone for a short time, but it feels like I have been gone for a long time." . ,'

"Zhishu, you haven't been to Nanyang for a long time, right?" "Looking back, Li asked the people in the car.

"Well, it's been a few years. "Lu Zhishu looked out the window. He only studied in Nanyang for more than a year before being sent to the capital by his family. Therefore, he did not have deep feelings for Nanyang City.

However, for Li Wen, Nanyang was not only The place where he studied for so many years became more like his second home. Now that he came back, he felt like he was coming home.

The group of them went to the inn in the city first, and Li Wen went upstairs to wash up briefly and change. After putting on clean clothes, he prepared to go to the capital to take the exam in the next year. He didn't come back until half a year after leaving. He hadn't seen Dean Fu for several months. Did you miss him?

Thinking of the tough-talking teacher who always disliked him, Li Wen couldn't help but laugh.

"Zhishu, I'm going to the teacher's place, do you want to go with me?" "Li asked Lu Zhishu if he wanted to go with him.

"Well, Yu Li, I should go visit the dean. I'll go with you. "When Lu Zhishu was studying in Nanyang, he had the honor to meet Dean Fu. They were both students of Anlu Academy. When he arrived in Nanyang this time, he should

visit Dean Fu with his friends.

"How about going to see Master Fu? Can we be left out? " Wanting to see him

, Li Wen, Lu Zhishu and Zhao Xiangyi left the inn and went to Fu's house.

Chapter 89: Meet the Teacher

The day after the imperial examination, Li Wen wrote a letter to be sent back to Nanyang to his teacher. He also sent a letter back to his family. They set off to return to their hometown a few days late, so when they arrived in Nanyang, the letter he sent back had arrived in Nanyang first.

Fu Yihan received a letter from his disciple. After reading the letter, he found out that his disciple had been selected as the number one scholar by the emperor in the palace examination. Even Dean Fu, who had always been aloof and reserved, laughed happily and said, "You are worthy of being my disciple, Fu Yihan." ,

finally all my efforts on this guy over the past few years have not been in vain. My disciple, Fu Yihan, must be the top talent.

His disciple won the top prize this time, which is the first six in a row. Yuan, he is indeed a disciple of Fu Yihan. He is better than his master. That's what he said.

Although his disciple is better than him, Dean Fu is more proud and happy in his heart, and does not think that his disciple is better than him . If the teacher is excellent, he will be unhappy as a teacher. If the students taught by the teacher are not better than himself, then what kind of teacher should he be? He might as well close so many academies to avoid misleading people. Disciple.

Knowing that his disciple would come to Nanyang on his way back to his hometown to visit his relatives after he passed the exam, Fu Yihan had already asked people to clean up the yard where his disciple lived.

Even though he has already moved to the capital, he will probably stay there in the future. After he became an official in the capital, Fu Yihan also left the courtyard where his disciple lived before. To Fu Yihan, this disciple was not only a disciple, but also treated like half a son. There was always such a disciple in the house. The place where he lives.

The house has long received the news that the young master has passed the exam. The housekeeper knew that the young master was back, and went out to greet him with his servants. Now that the young master has passed the exam, he is now the top scholar. Now that there is a person with an official status, when the housekeeper sees the person, he will lead everyone to kneel down and salute, "Congratulations to the young master for winning the first prize..."

"Hey, hey, say goodbye quickly, say goodbye quickly. "He couldn't afford to give him such a big gift as soon as they met. Li Wen quickly stretched out his hand to support the butler, and said to the servants who were about to kneel down behind him, "Quickly say goodbye, no need to kneel, no need. What are you doing? When I go in, the teacher is not allowed to whip me with a ruler. Please spare me. "

As soon as he came back, he put on official airs before he even entered the door. Does he think he has a long life or something? These people came here to harm him deliberately. Li Wen's face wrinkled up. The feeling of the ruler being drawn to the palm of his hand was unpleasant. Don't suffer.

"Haha, yes. "The housekeeper was helped up, and everyone behind him was also asked to get up. He knew the master's temper. If they did something like this outside, the young master would have to be punished by the master when he went in.

Li Wen introduced the housekeeper He said, "Uncle Chen, this is my classmate and friend Lu Zhishu. We took part in the scientific examination together this time, and we were both on the list. I was first in the first class, and Zhishu was third in the family." This time on the way back to our hometown, the two of us walked together and came back together. "

"The other one is General Zhao who sent me back home, and Mr. Xie. Thanks to them escorting me all the way this time, our journey back was so smooth. Today I came to see the teacher, so I brought them with me by the way. "The old slave has met Mr. Lu, Mr. Zhao, and Mr. Xie." "The housekeeper saluted several adults.

Lu Zhishu subconsciously looked at Li Wen. Li Wen hurriedly supported the housekeeper to prevent him from saluting, and said, "Uncle Chen, just treat them like me. There is no need to salute all the time. , We are all our own people, there is no need to be so alienated.

He has lived in Fu Mansion for so many years, and basically grew up here throughout his youth. Uncle Chen, the housekeeper in the mansion, is like his elder. Li Wen didn't want to think that because he had won the first prize in the exam and had an official position, the elders in the mansion would all bow down and bow to him when they saw him. They should just get along with each other how they got along before.

The housekeeper smiled and nodded. Uncle Chen glanced at General Zhao, made an invitation gesture, and invited everyone to enter the house, "Young master, you are back. Since you went to the capital, I know that the master is not good at talking. "Young Master

, please come in quickly."

"Haha, is that right?" When the housekeeper heard this, He said that Dean Fu missed him too. Li Wenxiao's eyes were crooked. On the way in with the housekeeper, he asked him whether everything was fine in the house and whether the teacher's health was okay while he was away from Nanyang in the capital. He also asked with concern about the housekeeper's health and the condition of everyone in the house.

"Okay, everything is fine. Thank you for your concern, young master. We are all fine. The master has asked the young master several times, and you have finally arrived today. Young master, hurry up and go into the house. The master has received news that the young master is back. "Yes." The housekeeper responded repeatedly and led everyone into the inner courtyard.

As soon as the carriages and horses of Li Wen and his entourage arrived in front of the Fu Mansion, Fu Yihan received the news that his disciple had returned.

"Young master, please come inside."

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Fu Yihan knew that someone had arrived.

Li Wen and Lu Zhishu walked in front, Zhao Xiangyi walked in behind one step behind, and the rest stayed outside the door.

"Disciple has met the teacher. This disciple went to the capital to take the scientific examination and was lucky enough to get the first place in the first class. Finally, he has lived up to the teacher's teachings and expectations over the years, so the disciple dared to come back to see the teacher." Li Wen looked up. He glanced at Dean Fu who was sitting in the room waiting for him, bowed his hands and said. He raised his head and glanced at Dean Fu, giving him a flattering smile.

"Well, I've known about this since I received your letter, and I'm very happy for you." Fu Yihan caught the disciple's glance at him and couldn't help but smile. This kid, also I thought he would become more stable after becoming the top pick, but he was still the same as before.

"You are able to achieve such good results because of your own efforts and dedication, not because of the teacher alone. I believe your parents and relatives in your family will be very happy to know this news."

Fu Yihan knew that his disciple could All the way to the top of the exam, apart from talent, hard work is essential, and he is such a good teacher, but it is not due to him alone.

"Student Lu Zhishu has met the dean." Lu Zhishu saluted.

"Student Zhao Xiangyi has met Mr. Zhao Xiangyi." When Zhao Xiangyi was a child, he was a reading companion to His Highness the Crown Prince. At that time, Academician Fu was giving lectures to the young Crown Prince according to the emperor's order. Academician Fu was the prince's husband, so he should also be a reading companion to the Crown Prince. Then call me sir.

student? teacher? When Li Wen on the other side heard Zhao Xiangyi's words, he always felt that he had missed something. Wait, Zhao Xiangyi is also a student of Dean Fu, why doesn't he know about such a thing?

Reminiscent of the fact that Dean Fu was also a top scholar and served as a high official in the imperial court. Maybe it was at that time that Dean Fu was the teacher of General Zhao? Li Wen remembered that the first time he met Zhao Xiangyi and His Royal Highness the Prince was at his teacher's place. At that time, His Royal Highness the Prince and Dean Fu were talking in the room, and Zhao Xiangyi was still standing outside the room waiting.

Why didn't Zhao Xiangyi or the prince mention this matter to him?

Li Wen looked at Dean Fu with a little doubt in his eyes. Did Dean Fu forget to tell him something? If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and General Zhao are both students of Dean Fu, then after all, these two people are still his senior brothers? ...

These people all have really tight mouths!

"Lu Zhishu, um, the third place in the first-class and third-place is Tanhualang. This result is pretty good." When Fu Yihan heard the three words "Lu Zhishu", he knew that this was the third-ranked Tanhualang in this scientific examination. The first place is the number one scholar, the second place is the second place, the third place is the top three, the people who can get into the top three of the first class are all the best among these scholars.

The reason why he remembered the name Lu Zhishu was because someone below mentioned that this Lu Zhishu was also a student who studied in their Anlu Academy. This meant that two of the top three in this year's scientific examination were The names are all students from their Anlu Academy, and the first name in Yijia is still his close disciple.

This year can be said to be the best result for their Anlu Academy. Not only did they produce a number one scholar and a third-ranked scholar, but also several second-class scholars and third-class scholars. So as soon as the results come out this time, there are many people outside. More and more people are trying to get into Anlu Academy to study. It's just that Anlu Academy's admissions requirements are very harsh and strict every year. Not just anyone wants to enter Anlu Academy. Only those who meet the requirements of Anlu Academy can enter.

"Everyone, get up and sit down." Fu Yihan glanced at General Zhao's son, Zhao Xiangyi. After being glanced at by Academician Fu, General Zhao straightened his back and allowed Academician Fu to look at him with a straight face.

Others thought that it was an honor to be a reading companion for the prince and princes. In fact, if the master did something wrong, the reading companion would be punished first. Therefore, in the past, Zhao Xiangyi often took the blame for the young prince. .

The servants who served brought the tea and then all left.

Li Wen noticed the way Dean Fu looked at Zhao Xiangyi and said, "Teacher, Brother Zhao is the one responsible for sending me back to my hometown this time."

"Well, with him sending you back, I feel relieved. I don't have to worry about you. What will happen on the way?" Fu Yihan glanced at Zhao Xiangyi, smiled, and said, "You are in the court, and some things in the court are unusual. You are new to the court, and you are familiar with many things in the court. I don't understand, so in the future, you should not speak too much about many things in the court. Don't talk too much, don't do too much, and learn to see more, learn more, and think more."

"Yes," Li Wen knew what the teacher meant. The words were meant for him and Lu Zhishu. Now that they had half a foot in the court, they still didn't understand the things in the court, so speaking less and doing less was a way to protect themselves. The saying goes that silence is golden.

As for watching more, learning more, and thinking more, this is a way of learning that teachers tell them. Only by observing, thinking, and studying with their heart can they figure out how to take the road ahead.

Because there were outsiders around, there was a distance between Fu Yihan and his disciples that should be maintained between a teacher and a student, and Li Wen also obediently

became his disciple. Li Wen knew that if there had been no outsiders, Dean Fu would have beaten him when he needed to be beaten and scolded him when he needed to be scolded. How could he be so proud of being a good teacher as he is now?

In fact, he still missed the way Dean Fu was furious and jumped up to beat him. It was cute, wasn't it?

They stayed with Dean Fu for half a day, then got up and planned to leave.

"The small courtyard you lived in before is still reserved for you. It will still be the same as when you were here. Now that you have arrived in Nanyang, you can live back in the small courtyard before. You don't have to live outside." Fu Yihan saw The disciple was about to leave and spoke.

"Yes." Li Wen's face was calm, but he was actually so happy that he almost jumped up.

Hahaha... The teacher still kept the courtyard where he lived before and asked him to live there...

"Teacher, can I let Zhishu and Brother Zhao stay together? We still have some things we don't understand, and it's convenient. Ask the teacher for advice. "It's not enough for him to stay alone. He also wants to drag his friends to stay with him. Li Wen said, licking his face.

Fu Yihan gave this eager disciple a look, and agreed without any objection. He waved his hand and said, "Go, go."

It gave me a headache...

The mansion is a big place, and it can be accommodated for a few more people.

"Teacher, please have a good rest. I will come back to you later." With the teacher's consent, Li Wenhuan happily took Lu Zhishu and Zhao Xiangyi out together. After the people left, Fu Yihan ordered the man behind him to arrange a courtyard for those students to live in.

Li Wen took Lu Zhishu and Zhao Xiangyi to the small courtyard where he lived before. The courtyard was still as it was when he was there. The inside and outside of the courtyard were neatly tidied, as if he had never left here in the past half year.

The study room still remains as it was when he was there, with several rows of bookshelves filled with books.

"You can sit wherever you like. This is the small courtyard where I used to live. In the past few years when I was studying in Nanyang, I always lived at the teacher's house." The two boys who used to work in the courtyard were also transferred here. Li asked He brought Lu Zhishu and Zhao Xiangyi inside and let them sit wherever they wanted.

"Your place is really nice." Xie Yunfei walked around the room and said.

"Haha, of course." Li Wen said with a smile that everything in the house was made according to his own preferences and made as comfortable as possible.

The courtyard that the housekeeper arranged for Zhao Xiangyi and Lu Zhishu was next to the small courtyard where he lived. In fact, Li Wen thought it would be better for them all to live in the same courtyard. Why should one of them live in the same courtyard? What a hassle!

Chapter 90 Entering the game

At night, Li Wen went to Dean Fu alone. The teacher and student closed the door in the study and talked for a long time. After returning to his own courtyard from Dean Fu, Li Wen couldn't help but smile when he saw the man sitting in his courtyard and walked towards the man.

Hearing the familiar footsteps, Zhao Xiangyi knew that Li Liuyuan was back. He turned to look at the young man walking towards him. The man's eyes did not change. Li Wen sat down next to Zhao Xiangyi, looked at Zhao Xiangyi sideways, and asked with a smile, "Why didn't you tell me that you were also the teacher's student?"

Zhao Xiangyi did not answer the question immediately. He knew that Li Liuyuan I just went to University Scholar Fu, so I must have learned about this from University Academician Fu. In fact, it was not that Li Liuyuan couldn't know about this matter, it was just that he didn't tell the boy if he didn't ask in the past.

As for His Highness the Crown Prince's thoughts, he didn't know.

After a while, General Zhao frowned and said, "This... there's nothing to say. The gentleman probably doesn't want me to mention to others that I used to be his student." Compared with Li Liuyuan, who was admitted as the top scholar, he A student who cannot even write an article well and is said to be a student of Fu University is indeed insulting to the reputation of Fu University.

"Pfft..." Li Wen couldn't help but laugh. With Dean Fu's character, this was really possible. The two of them had not known each other for a long time, but they were like old friends who had known each other for a long time. Li Wen also dared Zhao Xiangyi to joke, "You have never heard of the saying, once a teacher, always a teacher."

Zhao Xiangyi nodded. , said, "Back then, Master Fu was giving lectures to His Highness the Crown Prince according to the decree of the Holy One. I was His Highness's companion, so I, the companion, also followed the Crown Prince to listen to the lectures of several gentlemen. Master Fu is a man of profound talents and knowledge. I He has always been treated as the most respected person in his heart. "

So he called Master Fu Sir. Strictly speaking, His Highness the Crown Prince was a student of Master Fu, and he could only be regarded as half. He was not a good student in the past. Instead of reading the Four Books and Five Classics, he preferred to go to the martial arts training ground to practice archery and martial arts. 3

Zhao Xiangyi still remembers that when Fu University was extremely morale, he pointed at his nose and scolded: Rotten wood cannot be carved.

"Oh." Li Wen nodded. So His Royal Highness is also a student taught by the teacher. Are they still from the same school?

He remembered that the first time he met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Zhao Xiangyi was at Dean Fu's place. The second time I met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Zhao Xiangyi was at a restaurant in Nanyang. In other words, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Zhao Xiangyi should have known that he was Dean Fu's student at that time, but the Crown Prince did not mention it in subsequent meetings.

Tonight, Li Wen was at the teacher's place, and the two of them talked about some things in the court and the current situation of the court. These are all the problems he will face when he becomes an official in the court. From the perspective of his relationship with His Highness the Crown Prince and Zhao Xiangyi, who came from the same sect, he can be regarded as their younger brother, so it seems unlikely that he would want to cut off the relationship with His Highness the Crown Prince in the future.

After a few brief encounters, it was difficult for him to judge what kind of person this Crown Prince was.

Although Li Wen didn't want to step into the muddy waters of the capital city, he was already in it, and he might not be able to leave at any time if he wanted to.

The eldest prince had looked for him before, and he was afraid that he would send someone to look for him later. He also had a jade pendant in his hand that was given to him by His Highness the Crown Prince himself. After arriving in the capital, Li Wen did not take this jade pendant to contact His Highness the Crown Prince at the place he said. However, he did not feel that such a small person like himself was worthy of the efforts of the eldest prince and his highness

. Of course, this was just Li Wen's personal opinion. With his six-yuan status, he was worthy of the efforts of those in the capital. Thoughts enveloped him.

"Brother Zhao, how old were you when you became the prince's reading companion?" Li Wen asked curiously.

"About five or six years old." Too many years have passed, and even Zhao Xiangyi himself has forgotten a little. He has known His Highness the Crown Prince since he was a child, and Zhao Xiangyi himself can't remember when he was young. He later became the companion of His Highness the Crown Prince, and the relationship between the two became even closer.

Zhao Xiangyi knew why the prince chose him as his companion, and being chosen as his companion was not something he could refuse. It's just that the prince didn't choose him to be his companion. It could be another prince. Instead of being a companion to other princes, it would be better to be the companion of His Highness the Crown Prince.

Compared with the other princes, the prince is the one most likely to sit on the throne. And with the support of their Zhao family, the chance of the prince taking the throne will be even greater.

In recent years, the emperor has become older and older, and has become more wary of the prince. The power of the other princes has continued to grow, as well as Prime Minister Dong and Concubine Dong, who want to support the seventh prince to ascend to the throne. In the current situation between the DPRK and China, no one knows who will sit on the throne until the last step.

From the day he became the companion of His Highness the Crown Prince, he, Zhao Xiangyi, and the entire Zhao family were tied to a boat with His Highness the Crown Prince and the Queen. The boat was going to capsize and all of them would drown.

Zhao Xiangyi looked at the young man in front of him, and he had an idea that he didn't really want to get the young man on board. But Zhao Xiangyi knew that if Li Liuyuan did not choose the prince's faction, the other princes would definitely try their best to draw him to their camp. In that case, it would be better to draw the young man to their side. This is also the case. Why did Zhao Xiangyi obey His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's order and personally escort the young man back?

The moon in the sky is almost full, and it is almost fifteen.

Li Wen held his chin with one hand and looked up at the bright moon in the sky. He felt a little homesick. But now that they have arrived in Nanyang, they will be able to go back soon after taking another boat trip. He said, "When I was studying in Nanyang before, I didn't feel that I was far away from home. But now that I have gone to the capital, I realize that it is so uncomfortable to come back." Easy. "

In this era, it is really difficult to travel far away. He misses modern airplanes and trains very much...

Zhao Xiangyi knew that the young man was homesick. He could only go back once every three years after he became an official in the court. Visiting relatives at home. When he was young, he also traveled far away from his hometown to distant borders. Zhao Xiangyi could understand the feeling of missing his relatives at home. His fathers were still guarding the frontiers in distant borders and could not return for many years.

Seeing Zhao Xiangyi looking at him without speaking, Li Wen yawned. He was a little sleepy. He said, "It's getting late. I'm going to bed. You can go back to sleep too. I will take you to a place tomorrow."

"Okay." Zhao Xiangyi did not ask the young man where he wanted to take him.

The two ended their brief chat. Zhao Xiangyi stood up, said goodbye to the boy, and walked out of the courtyard gate. Looking at the man leaving, Li Wen turned his head, yawned, went back into the house, climbed into bed and went to sleep.

Early the next morning, after having breakfast in the mansion, Li Wen took Zhao Xiangyi and Lu Zhishu to Zhuangzi after talking to the housekeeper. They saw a green field in the distance.

In May, the crops in the fields are all green. As far as you can see, they are all green, and you can't see the edge. The fertile fields in the distance meet the blue sky and blend into one.

Lu Zhishu didn't know why Li Wen brought them to this place.

"You must have no idea why I brought you here," Li Wen glanced at the people around him and smiled brightly. Military Advisor Xie was not ashamed to ask and said, "Please ask Li Liuyuan to give me some advice."

"Hey, if I don't tell you, you will know it soon." Li Wen did not tell Xie Yunfei, but gave them a "you will know it soon" Eyes.

Zhao Xiangyi was not in a hurry, and he followed the young man one step behind.

Glancing at the crops grown in the field, Zhao Xiangyi found that these crops were better than what they had seen elsewhere.

"Young Master, the Young Master is here." From a distance, someone saw a group of people walking into the field, and someone shouted after recognizing the young man leading them.

"Young Master!"

"It's Young Master!"

Hearing the shout, people working in the fields emerged from nowhere and ran over. Seeing the little boy back, they all had excitement and joy on their faces, and they shouted happily, "Little Master, it's really you, you're back!"

"Little Master, we all heard that you were the top scorer in high school. From now on, He will stay in the capital as an official. "They all thought that the young master would not come back. They heard that the young master went to the capital to take the first prize and would become a high official in the future. They did not expect to see the young master coming back today. here.

They knew that the young master had won the first prize in the exam, and they were very happy for him. He was such a good person, but if it hadn't been for him, many of them wouldn't even be able to eat. Now they not only have food to eat, but also live in beautiful houses. They no longer have to worry about starving to death without food or freezing to death when it snows in winter.

"Oh, the young master is now the number one scholar. When we see the young master, we must salute him." Some people here reacted, thinking that the young master is now a high official. When they see the young master, they must salute and kneel down. They can no longer do what they did before. It's up to you.

"The ordinary people pay homage to the No. 1 Scholar..." Everyone knelt down and saluted.

"No, no need to salute, no need to salute." Li Wen quickly grabbed the person who was about to kneel down to salute, and shouted to the people behind him who were already kneeling, "Everyone, get up quickly, stop kneeling, if you do this again I will I'm going to be angry."

The people who were already kneeling behind them got up one by one.

Zhao Xiangyi and Xie Yunfei felt puzzled when they saw these ordinary people being so enthusiastic and happy to see Li Liuyuan, and Li Liuyuan looked very familiar with the people here. Lu Zhishu was also puzzled.

When everyone got up, many of them were familiar faces. He hadn't seen everyone for more than half a year, and he missed the people on Zhuangzi's side very much.

Li Wen specially came to Zhuangzi today to have a look. He said, "I went back to my hometown to visit my parents. I passed through Nanyang on the way and came back to see my teacher. I happen to be free today, so I came to Zhuangzi to see everyone."

"Yes. Yes, Young Master Lao is worried about them. "

That's why Young Master Lao came to see them.

I haven't seen the young master for a long time. Many of them would mention the young master when they were sitting together chatting. After knowing that the young master was the top scorer in high school and would stay in the capital as an official in the future, they all thought that the young master would never return to this place. They would never see the young master again, and they were a little sad for this.

But at the same time, they were also happy for the young master, because he won the first prize and could stay in the capital and become a high official in the future.
