After the carriage was out of town, Xiao Yi excused himself from wanting to entertain someone who didn't know him, and hid in the carriage cheekily.
The poor sisters Bai Bai and Lily were taken out naturally. Lily went to ride Xiao Yi's horse, while Bai Hui sat side by side with the driver Zhou Dacheng.
In the carriage, Nangong Yu and Xiao Yi sat at the window and, while talking, opened the curtains and looked at the countryside.
A smile flashed in Nangong Yan's eyes, and her mouth was also high. Xiao Yi certainly found her in a good mood. When Nangong Yan was really happy, her eyes would be as bright as stars now.
Xiao Yi thought proudly: No one knows his stinky girl like this, right? Even if there is a slight change in the smelly girl's face, he can perceive the slight change in her mood keenly!
Xiao Yi shook Nangong's hand and said with a smile: "Smelly girl, if you like going out, now that I'm back, we can often come out and play. Do you have any place you want to go?" He has begun to calculate, since he After returning, they haven't met with Yuan Lingbo. Maybe in a few days, you can make an appointment with brothers and sisters Fu Yunhe and brother Ling Yuanbai to go out and have fun.
Nangong chuckled but smiled, leaning his head on his shoulders, and said with a frown, "What if I want to go to Xijiang? I have seen it in" Dayu Kyushu Records "before, and I heard that Xihe is in Xijiang The plateau is peculiar in style, and the people there are in a cave dwelling, which is very spectacular. Would you like to accompany me? "
"You want to go, of course no problem." Xiao Yi responded in a hurry, "I will take you where you want to go, we can walk through the mountains and rivers of Dayu together. Whether it is west or north, we can go outside the domain , Go to Nanyang, go to many places! "Xiao Yi never felt that a woman could only stay in the small quartet of the inner house, and he would take her away from the narrow place of Wangdu, where the sea was wide and the sky was arbitrary.
The smile on Nangong Yu's face was another, and she could not help showing a longing.
Xiao Yi held up Nangong Yan's hand and said solemnly: "So, stinky girl, you must keep your body well! We live to be a hundred years old!" As he spoke, a kind of burial was revealed in his eyes. Fear, his biological mother, his grandfather, and those who love him left him early. What about that girl? Will the smelly girl also ...
Nangong Yu also felt the change in his expression and tone. He smiled and said, "I'm 100 years old, I don't want to be an old monster!" She raised her chin, pretending to think, "I'm 80 years old, Ai, let's live to 80 years old together! "
Xiao Yi took her in her arms, and for a while, there was a vague and choked word above her head: "Smelly girl, I will try to live a day longer than you."
"it is good."
The carriage was quiet, and the two were so close to each other.
I don't know how long it took, and Lily's joyful voice came from outside: "Shi Ziye, Shi Zifei, Liu Hezhuang has arrived."
As the speed gradually slowed down, Nangong Yan opened the curtain and looked out.
Her first two visits to Liuhezhuang are already in the autumn and winter season, and it is the first time that she came here in the spring when everything is recovering. The outside is densely green, with birds and flowers, and the clear river is sparkling in the warm sunshine. Wave light ... It seems like a completely different place.
After the carriage stopped, Xiao Yi and Nangong Yan went down the carriage one after the other. The accompanying Zhu Xing, Ren Zinan, Chu David and others also dismounted.
Feng Guanshi has brought a lot of Zhuangzi's subordinates and dozens of disabled veterans waiting there. The team seems to be huge, all eyes are focused on Xiao Yi and Nangong Yan, of course, more of them are Xiao Yi. The dozens of veterans still saw Xiao Yi for the first time and couldn't help but examine him ... and even wanted to find the shadow of the old king of the old town from him.
Unfortunately, Xiao Yi's appearance is very different from that of the rude and dark old King Nan of the old town, not even a trace of shadow can be found.
Feng Guanshi was about to step forward to salute, but heard a child's sharp cry from behind: "Here! Here is the grandfather and concubine!"
Looking at the sound, I saw a six- or seven-year-old boy running towards the village in the direction of the village. While running, he shouted with his throat. In the blink of an eye, he attracted many farmers in the field and villagers in the village. I looked over here, and some of them couldn't wait to run, and wanted to see how Xiao Yi, the world's grandfather, looked like.
This trouble has broken the somewhat rigid atmosphere.
Feng Guanshi suddenly appeared embarrassed, and said arrogantly, "Let Shi Ziye and Shi Zifei laugh."
The veterans behind him kneeled down on one knee and marched to Xiao Yi: "I've seen my grandfather, my concubine."
Although they are old and their voices can't hide from the hoarseness, when their voices overlap so neatly at this moment, they look so loud, and the rigorous and killing spirit of being soldiers is released in an instant, so that The viewers were all stunned, and could not help but become serious.
The veterans' feelings about this grandfather are still a little complicated due to the affairs of the cattle, but no matter what kind of person the grandfather is, at least this time he led the army to drive the abominable southern barbarian out of Dayu. Within the territory, the former lost city was recaptured, and even more countless people who died under the hands of the Nanmanzi revenge. From these points of view, the grandfather of the world accepted their gift anyway.
"No courtesy." Xiao Yi stepped forward and raised one person. The other veterans then got up, and Ren Zinan followed up with a veteran with inconvenience.
"Lao Chu! Alan!"
The veterans saw Chu David, Ren Zinan and his sons who had been reunited for a long time, and they were very affectionate and went up to talk.
Even if Chu David and Ren Zinan said nothing, they all saw that the father and son should be doing well in the palace, not to mention that the clothes are better than before, just look at their spirited appearance, especially Ren Zinan In the past, when I was in Liuhezhuang, I always felt a little less angry with the young people, as if they had entered the old age with the old guys of them earlier ... Now Ren Zinan is the young man's energy.
This young man, sure enough, still can't stay with their old group of guys all day long.
Looking at Ren Zinan now, even the always serious old Min's mouth faintly evoked a smile.
"Go in and talk." Xiao Yi said, and everyone crowded him and Nangong into Zhuangzi.
After everyone entered the main hall under Feng Guanshi's guidance, the originally small main hall seemed overcrowded. The original swivel chairs in the main hall were not enough for them to sit, and Feng Guanshi hurriedly brought a lot of stools.
After they were seated one by one in the main hall, the atmosphere became awkward and quiet, and finally Nangong said with a grin: "I'm busy during this time, I haven't had time to come again to see, can you still live?"
"Habit! Very habit!" A tall veteran groaned, looking at him in his early fifties, with a bright red face, if not for lacking his left hand, it looked like an ordinary crop man.
"Of course he's used to it." Another veteran next to him couldn't help making fun of him. "He just married his daughter-in-law after the New Year, and now he is very happy. Even if he is sent back to South Xinjiang, he should not go back."
All the veterans in a room laughed loudly, but everyone was beaming, apparently they were really happy for the same robes.
Feng Guanshi whispered it aside, Nangong Zhi only realized that the old soldier was called Ye Shi. Last year, the widow of Liu in the village next to him hired him to help build a house. Whoever knew it, he and the widow Look right. The widow Liu's son had already married and had no objection, so they married after the New Year.
"This is a happy event." Nangong narrowed his eyes with a smile. "Feng Guanshi, you should have told me earlier, and I'd better send a congratulatory gift." I am also happy for this veteran named Ye Shi, who is like this It can be considered as a real home in Liuhezhuang. For these disabled veterans like duckweed, this is probably a great happiness in life.
"No, you don't have to ..." Ye Shi waved his hands in a hurry, some helpless, "Sir son, concubine, you two have done enough for us old guys!" They are not greedy people either Originally, I only hoped that I could spend the rest of my life safely and securely. It was also an unexpected surprise to be able to settle down in Liuhezhuang.
Xiao Yi suddenly interjected with a smile: "So, I'm a matchmaker! I should ask you for a matchmaker gift!"
Everyone in the hall did not expect Xiao Yi to say such a sentence. The hall was quiet for a moment, followed by Ye Shi laughed first: "My grandfather Shi said that my wife-in-law has a good set of wine, I will go to a few altars later And give it to Grandpa Shi. "
Another veteran courageously echoed the sentence: "This is a good word for Lao Ye. The wine made by Xunzi is wonderful!"
When it comes to wine, these people opened their throats and talked, and later, everyone talked about their own situation ... From the words of these people you said to me, Nangong Yu learned that these veterans are now living a full life Great, help the villagers build a house for a while; help Zhuangzi repair the channel for a while; help the villagers spring plough; help the river irrigate the hills for a while ...
Braised! Nangong Yu then thought of the saline-alkali land in the back hills of the village, and asked blurtly: "Is the brine land already irrigated?"
Feng Guanshi whispered: "Yes, Princess Shi. The channel was repaired last month, and the rivers in the past were brought in to irrigate the brine. A pity that we can only cultivate one year in the north, and this year's spring plowing cannot keep up."
Ye Shi interjected: "Although spring ploughing cannot keep up, you can still plant some vegetables or something."
Xiao Yi naturally also heard Nangong Yu mentioned this place, but at this time he was interested and said, "Let's go to Houshan and see."
As soon as this word came out, everyone responded, so they went back together.
With so many people passing by the village, they naturally attracted a lot of people from the village to join the team, but these people naturally did not want to see the land of Houshan, but to watch Xiao Yi and Nangong Yu.
Xiao Yi and Nangong Yan didn't care about the eyes of others, both of them were at ease. Xiao Yi even held Nangong Yan's hand in front of the crowd and headed towards the mountain together, biting their ears from time to time, smiling at each other. .
For a while, the village women and the little girls who followed were eager to hear each other, and shouted envy in the eyes. This world grandfather and world grandfather not only look good as the people in the painting, but also have such a good relationship, they are like a pair of gods. Companion.
Passing through the village was suddenly bright, and a large area of cultivated land came into their sight.
This place, which was once called the "back mountain wasteland", is quite different now. When Nangongyuan came here last time last year, the land was only half-opened, covered with a white flower crystal, and now it has passed spring. After the irrigation of the river water, the original color of the soil has appeared.
It is almost conceivable that Nangongyu will be filled with seedlings and green in the coming spring ... When it is harvested in autumn, it will turn into a golden ocean.
After Houshan returned, Xiao Yi called Lao Min alone and asked him about the letter.
"This was handed to me three years before the death of Lao Wang, let me take good care of it." Lao Min recalled, "Since then, this letter has not left my side." He paused, some He said embarrassedly, "Master Shi, in the past few years, I heard that you were useless and wanton. I used to think that this letter from Old Lord is no longer in the sky. I just did not expect that you have suffered so much. The old man is still alive, and he will be very distressed. "
Xiao Yi's eyes were dim, but then he smiled freely, "If my grandfather is alive, I'm afraid I'll be too useless, but I will be coaxed casually, leaving only a lot of infamy. ... Your business, yes I was oversight. "
"Master Shi," Lao Min said sincerely, "you have a good wife."
If it weren't for the concubine, I'm afraid they will remember the emperor to the death, and mistake the concubine as a good person.
If it weren't for the concubine, the infamous body of the emperor would probably be unclean.
Had it not been for the concubine, their veterans would not have a good life now.
Xiao Yi was so proud that he said, "Of course! She is better than anyone!" There was no hesitation in his tone.
Lao Min couldn't help but said with emotion: "The old man will be very happy."
Xiao Yi showed a touch of nostalgia.
Until the age of six, Xiao Yi lived with his grandfather, learning to write, study martial arts, and learn military methods ... and listening to Lao Min said that when he was three years old, his grandfather gave the letter to Lao Min for custody Those industries are said to have passed to his name since then.
Xiao Yi secretly wondered what happened to his grandfather when he was three years old ...
On the way back to Wangdu, Xiao Yi told Nan Gongxi the content of his conversation with Lao Min, and finally expressed his skill: "Smelly girl, even if Lao Min doesn't say it, I know you are the best Yes! I like you best! "
Nangong Nian didn't have his cheeky face, and was blushed with that "favorite" sentence. The shame on his face provoked Xiao Yi's heart, and he couldn't help stealing a kiss quickly.
At the same time, the news that Nanban envoys entered the capital has been spread, and the capital is discussing this topic.
The story of the storyteller was the most sensitive, and the storyteller eloquently talked about how the Nanban king sent his envoys to seek peace.
Obviously, this storyteller has never been to Nanman, nor has he seen the Nanman king, but he talked about how the Nanman king invited the ministers to discuss, and how he chose the envoy to bring a few beautiful women to the capital. It was as if he had seen it and heard it with his own eyes.
Speaking of the envoy entering the capital of the king, the storyteller abruptly stopped, knocking on the gavel to make everyone wait to disintegrate next time.
"This is over ?!" cried a middle-aged woman who was yelling at melon seeds. "This is where the key points come, why is it over? Liu Sanzui, you ca n’t wait to be so foolish! I spend it For money. "
The storyteller Liu Sanzui touched the **** with a mystery, saying, "Hey, if you want to know the next time you break down, do you know if you come back tomorrow?"
The middle-aged woman was about to continue yelling and cursing, and a middle-aged man wearing a short punch couldn't help but expose the old bottom of Liu San's mouth: "This elder sister, don't listen to him blindly. Isn't this the next time I break down? I heard one of my brothers guarding the city gate said that the capital of the Nanban envoy who had only entered yesterday had not even met the emperor! "
Another youth sighed with regret: "I guess our emperor will air the envoy well."
"That's it." The middle-aged man echoed, "This **** Nan Manzi heard that he even slaughtered several cities in Dayu, at least tens of thousands of people have been killed! Now he was beaten by King Shinan of Zhennan Just like a bereavement dog, you know how to make peace! "
"Just let the **** Nan Manzi cut the land and make compensations, and the tributes are every year!"
"Huh, I think they're cheaper this way!"
"As I see it, ... we have to let the princess reconcile!" Thinking of Dayu's princess worries and kissing Xi Rong, a fat man cried with a throat. It's their turn to show their prestige this time!
He said this, the black and thin young man next to him pointedly pointed at his elbow, "Did you not hear that Nanban sent their maids? ... I also heard the king Nanzi It was the maiden who was confined in a prison car and brought into the capital! "
"Isn't it?" The fat man said in disbelief, "not to say that the virgin is beautiful, beautiful, and the king of the south of the town, too, does not know how to be fragrant and precious!"
The middle-aged woman shrugged off her lips in disapproval: "What's the use of being beautiful! It's not Nanmanzi! I heard that they are all stinky!"
These listeners were so lively, and Liu San smiled proudly aside, wishing that the Nanban envoy was staying with the king as long as possible, and he could borrow money to make a little money.
In the eyes of the king and the king, the emperor finally made his intention the following day: three days later, a palace banquet was held in the palace to feast civil and military officials and women who had died. At the same time, envoys from Xuannan also entered the palace .
The emperor's intention was clear at a glance. To the officials of Dayu, this palace feast was like a celebration feast, but to the Nanban envoy, it was a deterrent.
The emperor's decree naturally passed to the Zhennan palace.
After sending away the palace man, Nangong Yan only felt a headache, and went to the palace banquet to wear big makeup. The most troublesome, but they still had to go, after all, Xiao Yi was also one of the protagonists of this palace banquet.
Xuaner walked into Wushoutang and asked, "Sir concubine, are you going to Huayan today?"
"Go, why not?" Nangong raised his eyebrows, and the palace feast was not today, why bother to influence the scheduled trip today.
"Yes, concubine. The slave went down to prepare the carriage."
Xiao Yi frowned and asked, "Smelly girl, are you going out today?"
Nangong said with a smile: "Did I tell you a few days ago that I was going to sell my two shops in Wangdu? Yesterday I made an appointment. People will go to Hua Huan today. I will have it before lunch. Back. "
When it comes to selling shops, Xiao Yi is excited. When the shops are sold, he will be able to rely on the smelly girl to raise them. Think about it on this day!
"I'll go with you!" Xiao Yi said cheerfully, eyes glowing.
Nangong Yu naturally agreed.
Neither of them likes to be a teacher and move people, so after randomly packing the whole line, they set off from the royal palace of Zhennan half an hour later.
"Huayan" is not too far from the palace. They arrived there less than an hour ago, and there was still a fragrant incense before the appointment time with the Chinese people.
When Yi Mei heard that Nangong Yu was coming, she was busy putting down the matter at hand and came out to meet her personally, but did not want Xiao Yi to come too. There was an accident in her eyes, and she saluted to the two: "I have seen the grandfather and the grandfather. "
Today they came here to travel in plain clothes. If it is weekdays, Nangong Yu will make Yi Meibei pay too much attention to politeness, but since her prince and concubine in the south of the town are so desperate to sell dowry, it should be convenient to show some deeds.
Sure enough, Yimei's actions suddenly attracted a few strange looks around.
Yi Mei respectfully greeted Nangong Yu and Xiao Yi into the inner room, which was a bit messy, with many books on the desk and chair.
"Master Shi, Princess Fei, here is a bit messy, so don't be surprised." Yi Mei embarrassed to invite Xiao Yi and Nangong Yu to sit down.
Nangong Yu asked the Chinese people to come and see the "Huayan" incident. Only Yimei knew about it in this shop. Of course, this play is to do a full set. Since the shop is to be sold, Yimei just pretends to organize the "flower face" account book.
Nangong Ai didn't mind it and waved his hands casually. "It doesn't matter, just sit somewhere."
Yimei quickly ordered tea and snacks, and Nangong took a sip of tea. Lily, who was originally guarded outside, also entered the inner room, and proclaimed: "Sir concubine, Girl Ye, please." After a while, she added quickly, "It's the girl in Huaiyuan County."
What happened in Liuhezhuang, Huaiyuan County, and Bailinzhuang had been told to Xiao Yi one by one by Nan Gongyu, so when they heard of Huaiyuan County, Xiao Yi knew which Ye girl.
Nangong Yan glanced at Xiao Yi and said, "Let her in."
After a while, Lily led Ye Yili to come in. I saw that she did n’t apply any fat powder, her face was white, her skin was delicate, and she had a pure blue dress with only two spring orchid silk flowers on her head. It was so simple to dress and wear it on her. On the body, it does not seem to have an elegant, elegant temperament.
As soon as she entered the room, she glanced around the room quickly, her gaze fixed on Xiao Yi's body, her dark eyes showed surprise, but she lowered her head slightly, and approached with a low eyebrow. Blessing said: "I have seen the grandfather and the concubine."
Although this is the first time that she has seen the son of the king of Zhennan, she has also heard from the "Huayan" people about their description of this grandfather, plus she can sit side by side with her like this There should be only the brothers of Shi Ziye and Shi Zifei.
Xiao Yi's appearance is naturally good, but it is not similar to Nangong Yu, so Ye Yili is almost sure that the young man in front of him is Xiao Yi, the king of Zhennan.
After figuring it out, Ye Yili was a little upset. She pursed her lips and hurriedly explained, "Sir concubine, the daughter-in-law heard that you are coming, so please come over to please." Just now, she accidentally heard that Nangong was coming from a helper in the shop, and hurried over Please, but don't want the son of Xiao Yi to come over.
In terms of her behavior, she was still a little brazen, and she could not help frowning slightly.
Nangong Yu also saw a little clue from Ye Yili's behavior, with a smile: "Girl Ye, you don't have to be restrained, just sit down."
After Ye Yili sat down, Nangong Yan said again, "Girl Ye, how are you doing here?"
"Habit, of course." Ye Yili was sitting critically, looking at Nangong Yan without a squint, and replied, "Sir concubine, the daughter is taken care of by sister Yi Mei a lot here, and now everything is safe in the daughter's house Well, my brother has gradually recovered ... "She looked at Nangong Yan gratefully." Actually, even if Princess Shi does not come today, the daughter wants to go to the palace to see Princess Xie En. "
"Girl Ye, you are so polite ..."
Before Nangong Yu finished talking, Yier picked the curtain and went into the inner room. She took a look at Ye Yili unexpectedly, and said, "I am the concubine."
Man? Ye Yili froze, and the first reaction was, why did Nangong Rong need to invite the people to "Huayan"? As far as she knows, the manpower in the shop is just right now, and there should be no need to recruit helpers for the time being. Could it be that……
She suddenly thought of a possibility, her eyebrows narrowed slightly, and she glanced quickly at Nangong.
She felt a little disturbed, but still stood up decisively, and she was blessed and said, "Since the concubine is in trouble, the daughter will retreat first."
Nangong Yu naturally did not retain her.
After Ye Yili retreated, Nangong Ai stood up and planned to go to see the middleman with her. Xiao Yi also followed, but was stopped by Nangong Yan: "Are you waiting for me here?"
Seeing Xiao Yi's face disappointed, she smiled and said, "It's too late!"
Xiao Yi sat back aggrievedly.
Nangong Yu and Yuner went to meet the middle man in front. The middle man was a middle-aged woman in her forties. She was dressed in honey-colored gold dumplings. Her body was slightly plump and her chubby face looked very It is kind, but reveals a hint of light in his eyes, apparently a smart person.
At the first sight of Nangong, the middle man knew that the little lady was either rich or expensive. Although she could not choose to wear it, or even deliberately low-key, she could not lie to anyone.
In fact, the Chinese people have always been skeptical about the fact that Zhennan Wang Shizi wants to sell a dowry shop. How do you say that the concubine is also the niece of Nangong Palace, the Emperor's Yaoguang County Lord, and married the Zhennan King Shizi, and the ten miles of red makeup on the day of the marriage were discussed in the king for a while. How could such a concubine fall into a dowry shop?
In the middle of the people's mind, there was even a moment when they suspected that the subordinate's slave was bullying the owner to secretly sell the dowry, but thinking about this, it would be okay. There is no reason why there is no business. Already.
Until now when she saw Nangong Yu, she knew that it must be the Lord.
It turned out that Zhennan Wang Shizi really wanted to sell a dowry shop! This is big news!
Just heard that Shizi is also here. Where is he now?
The middle man eagerly stretched his neck and looked back, hoping that Shizi would also show up.
Unfortunately, there is no one behind, it seems that Shizi is not going to show up.
Also, it's not as shameful to sell a dowry as a dowry!
The middle man pressed the excitement in his heart and did not wait for the child to introduce Nangong. He flirted with the puppet and approached forward, saluting the two with decent etiquette.
After a few people strolled around the shop, after clearing their throats, the middle man still asked indefinitely: "Sir concubine, are you really planning to sell the shop?"
Tonger held her hands on her hips and raised her chin. "Mother Liu, don't you think we are happy to ask you to come here today?"
"Of course not!" Zhongren said nervously, "I just want to confirm. Then ... I don't know if Shi Zifei intends to sell this shop only, or sell it with the whole shop?" After a pause, she explained Said, "Sir concubine, although your shop is in a good location, the price is only the same if you only sell shop noodles. But you have already made a name for this" Huayan ", if it is connected with the name" Huayan "... ... "
"You mean the recipe linked to" Huayan ", right?" Yu Er interjected with a smile. This middle man is really shrewd.
A moment of hesitation on the ground at the right time ...
The Chinese people felt that there was a drama, and they were busy comparing a number: "Sir concubine, your" flower face "sold this number, and even these people in your shop can also receive it." The Chinese person eloquently said again Some good words.
In the end, Xuaner pretended to look at Nangong Yan's face, and then said to the humane: "This matter, our son-in-law, needs to think carefully again."
The Chinese people echoed in unison, and said a few more good words before they reluctantly resigned under the cue of Xun Er. In fact, they could not wait any longer.
She has to find a good sister to tell the breaking news ...
So, in just two days, the matter of Zhennan Wangshi's concubine selling dowry shop was spreading quietly in the capital.
