66 Sixty-six steps
Not to mention how surprised Father Xiao was when he learned about the treasures of the previous dynasty, it was said that Emperor Guangxi was a little stunned. Many people in the previous dynasty knew where the treasure was, but they didn't know where the treasure was, although he felt that it was impossible for his teacher not to take some of it, but looking at what was left, Emperor Guangxi was about to wake up with a smile in his dreams.
Although the treasury is not short of money, no one is afraid of having too much money. And according to the five-year plan given by Dayu to the teacher, no matter how much money he has, he is not too much.
Emperor Guangxi, who was busy digging up the treasures of the previous dynasty in the north, could not care about Lord Xiao's leave, and he didn't even look at it.
Father Xiao smacked his mouth, his holiday is really valuable!
Xianshan Island is on the archipelago across the South China Sea from Dayu, and that island was originally borderland, and it has been rooted in this island since the rivers and lakes withdrew from Dayu.
Originally, this island did not belong to Dayu, but because the Jianghu people were stationed, it was quietly incorporated into Dayu's territory, and it is said that the predecessor who found Xianshan Island back then contributed to Dayu's land.
Xiao Qiao and Hu Li and Xiao's father, Mrs. Xiao was not in a hurry after leaving the imperial city, they sat in a carriage, and when they encountered a good scenery, they would stay and enjoy it, and they would go to join in the fun when they encountered interesting things.
When they reached the beach, they abandoned the car and took the boat. The boat is a little less fun, but passing through some coastal cities along the route, they will also disembark and stay for a few days, which also adds a lot of fun.
And they didn't bring too many people, at least on the surface. Xiao Qiao and Hu Li only brought books and bamboos, Xia Yang and Qiu Xi, and the eagle of the red halberd, and the old lady was only accompanied by Mama Yu and a little maid, and Xiao's father only brought two small servants, and a big boat was enough for their group to live comfortably.
Most of the trips from the Imperial City to Xianshan Island are by boat from Guangzhou. Therefore, before they arrived in the South China Sea, Xiao Qiao and the others got off the boat, changed to a carriage, and entered Guangzhou leisurely.
Guangzhou is located in the southernmost part of Dayu, and the climate is hot and humid, and the temperature is not too low all year round. It took them a few months to come all the way from the imperial city, and it had already passed through spring and summer, and as soon as they arrived here, Xiao's father was unaccustomed to the soil.
In her early years, the old lady lived on Xianshan Island, which was still to the south, and adapted well to this environment, while Xiao Qiao and Hu Li were both cultivators, but Xiao's father was extremely unaccustomed to the climate in this place. They were not in a hurry to leave, so they stayed in Guangzhou Mansion and waited for Xiao's father to get better before leaving.
Guangzhou Mansion is close to Xianshan Island, and there are more people in the rivers and lakes than in the north, and it is common to see people in the rivers and lakes with swords walking through the streets. However, Xianshan Island once had a rule that if you left Xianshan Island, you could not fight at will, let alone disturb ordinary people. If this rule is violated, the people of Xianshan Island can attack it in groups.
The people in the rivers and lakes of Xianshan Island may not care about this regulation, but they don't dare to take the risk of trying, if they are really attacked by a group at that time, they really regret it. So this rule has been continued, and now, it has become a secret law when everyone on Xianshan Island walks outside.
Although Mrs. Xiao said that she had adapted well to the climate here and had martial arts, after all, she was old and tired after a few months, so she rested in the inn with Father Xiao.
Xiao Qiao took Hu and left the street, where they were at the moment was the capital city of Guangzhou Prefecture, the street was very lively, and the small vendors everywhere were shouting and cheering.
"It's so lively, shall we go check it out?" said that he was asking for advice, but after Hu Li finished speaking, he had already dragged Xiao Qiao over there, and Xiao Qiao connived and let Hu Li pull him over there.
The place Hu Li said was a teahouse, surrounded by a lot of people, all of them were full of interest, and some even held melon seeds in their hands, which showed that they were leisurely.
Xiao Qiao dragged him into the crowd by Hu Li, relying on his slippery figure, and soon squeezed to the front. Hu Li didn't pay attention, but as soon as the people saw the clothes they were wearing, they could see that they were either rich or expensive, and immediately gave way to them, but Hu Li, who drilled into the crowd wholeheartedly, didn't notice.
Why this teahouse is so lively has been a common thing in Guangzhou Mansion in the past two days. There is a storyteller in the teahouse, but this storyteller is not an ordinary man, but a woman, and a woman from all walks of life. Although she is a woman, her eloquence is well-known, and she has never heard of it, and there are many guests, and the shopkeeper of the teahouse is smiling and squinting.
It's a pity that this storyteller was taken by a small overlord in Guangzhou Mansion, and he had to take the storyteller as a concubine. This little overlord used to be invincible in this mansion city, his father was the richest man in the mansion city, and he had an in-law relationship with the prefect's family, and he was used to being arrogant on weekdays, and he never encountered anything unpleasant.
But as I said earlier, this storyteller is a chivalrous woman, although she is now telling stories in the teahouse, it is not that Xiaobawang said that he would accept a concubine. However, the more he met the iron plate of the little overlord, the more he did not give up, and ran to the teahouse when he saw the sky, hoping to move the storyteller with his "true feelings".
"So, that's how he was moved?" Hu Li looked at the little overlord sitting in the lobby with subtle eyes, with a round face and white and tender skin, except for being a little fat, he was a delicate teenager, and he was sitting in the lobby at the moment shouting and the servants applauded vigorously to cheer for the storyteller on the stage.
"Maybe." Xiao Qiao nodded, and the people on the side were all eating melon seeds. In fact, this little overlord has never done the classic thing that a gentleman did to rob a people's girl, most of the time he is walking around the street with his servants yelling at him to drink and drink, and sometimes he will take things from the stall without giving money, but generally the servants who follow him will always give the money to the stall owner in the end.
Therefore, the people in Guangzhou Mansion want to say how much they hate this little overlord, but they just look down on him a little bit when he is so old and fights cocks and dogs all day long.
"It's not loud enough, push harder." Xiao Bawang's eyes stared at Mr. Storyteller, but he tossed hard.
The chivalrous storyteller rolled her eyes secretly, anyway, she came to be a storyteller just for fun.
Hu Li thought it was a lively thing, there was nothing special about it, he could see a lot of gentlemen in the imperial city. After all, in the realm of the Imperial City, eight of the ten people I met along the way had a bit of a background, and the way the children played was also lost.
"Let's go, Brother Xiao, let's go in and have tea."
Xiao Qiao chuckled lightly and followed Hu Li into the teahouse, the little overlord glanced back, his eyes were fixed on Hu Li, and he didn't even look at the storyteller who wanted to take a concubine.
Hu Li is now in his prime, when Xiao Qiao saw Hu Li at the beginning, he was amazed by his appearance, not to mention that now his life is extremely nourishing, and Hu Li's appearance has reached a higher level.
Xiao Bawang coughed, smoothed his sleeves and hem, and swiped his hair according to the tea, and walked majestically to the table where Xiao Qiao and Hu Li were sitting.
"This brother Tai, under Liu Yu, dare to ask what Brother Tai is called?"
This opening remarks mixed with Jianghu dialect and vernacular made the teahouse quiet for a moment, after all, now the people in the teahouse are looking at how this little overlord is going to take the storyteller into the concubine room, and now he is going to talk to a young man who doesn't look big, what is this going to do?
"Well, my name is Hu Li." Hu Li squinted his eyes and smiled slightly, Liu Yu instantly felt that his heart began to flutter, and looked at Hu Li blankly, how could a person be so good-looking.
Hu Li didn't mind, Xiao Qiao was not good at talking, he squeezed Hu Li's hand, and there was obvious coldness in his voice, "This Liu Gongzi, you are blocking the two of us from listening to the book." ”
"Ahh Liu Yu's face flushed, so he sat next to Hu Li, and began to look at Hu Li with his chin in his hand.
Xiao Qiao gritted his teeth, looked at Hu Li still looking interested, pinched his cheek helplessly, and scolded, "Look at what you caused." ”
Hu Li pursed his mouth in dissatisfaction, saving his face from Xiao Qiao's men, "How can this be that I caused trouble, I didn't let him come and sit." ”
Xiao Qiao glanced at the stunned Liu Yu helplessly, and didn't bother to pay attention to him, but he was just a passerby, and they left in a few days.
The onlookers looked at each other, so this little overlord is not Mr. Storyteller, it's time to hook up with the little young master who is either rich or expensive at first glance?
What Xiao Qiao didn't expect was that this little overlord would go to the inn where they stayed every day from this day on. Xiao Qiao's face turned gloomy at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he wanted to let the dark guard beat him.
However, Hu Li is a little interested in this little overlord, all because this little overlord is familiar with Guangzhou Mansion, knows that Hu Li loves to eat, and takes him to eat local specialties every day, Hu Li almost treats him as a close friend.
So after Xiao's father recuperated, Xiao Qiao left Guangzhou Mansion with Hu Li. Xiao Bawang knew that after Hu Li left, he sighed for a long time, his round face was thin, and he knew that they were going in the direction of Xianshan Island, and Xiao Bawang found Mr. Storyteller again.
It's just that this time she was asked to take herself to Xianshan Island, not to be her own concubine. As for later, it is unknown whether he and Mr. Storyteller went to Xianshan Island, but they only knew that a few years later, Xiaobawang married a chivalrous wife.
After leaving Guangzhou Mansion, the group quickly arrived at Xianshan Island by boat. This Xianshan Island is not a large island that is collectively called Xianshan Island by the outside world, but the island where it was first discovered and settled, and it is also the central island of this island group.
The atmosphere of Xianshan Island is completely different from that of Dayu, where you can see people with swords everywhere, and even those who fight on the street. As soon as he entered the island, a fierce aura came to his face, and Father Xiao's face almost turned white.
As soon as they got off the boat, there were people waiting by the harbor early.
"Old lady, you're back." A middle-aged man saw Mrs. Xiao get off the boat, and led a few people to walk over quickly. The old lady looked at him and smiled, "It's Luo Liu." ”
"Hey, it's the little one, the old lady still remembers!" Luo Liu smiled and nodded, "This is the cousin and the two cousins, the little Luo Liu has seen the three masters." ”
"No need to be polite, we are not familiar with Xianshan Island, so we have to worry about Luo's affairs." Xiao Qiao smiled and nodded, a hint of a smile flashing in his eyes.
"Brother Xiao, it's really lively here!"
Xiao Qiao nodded, he smiled and leaned over and kissed Hu Li's forehead, it was indeed lively enough. In just a few moments after they stood here, they saw a lot of people coming and going in this port.
"The old lady misses the old lady very much, let's go back to the villa first." Luo Liu smiled and led them into the carriage and headed to the island. 166 Reading Network
