Hu Li was awakened by the red halberd's wings, flicked his big tail to push the red halberd away, stretched his waist, looked up at the red halberd that was bigger than him, and was startled.

Ahh!!h

Hu Li jumped to the side of the bed, his drunken and somewhat groggy head made him almost fall off the bed, and he was relieved to see that the room was empty except for him and the red halberd.

Hu Li collapsed on the bed, and Chi Ji stood next to him, lowered his head and patted Hu Li's head with his wings, making Hu Li's already dizzy head even more dizzy. Hu Li was so angry that he slapped the red halberd aside with his tail, and quickly changed back into a human form.

As soon as he put on his clothes and was about to talk to Chi Ji about him slapping him with his tail, he heard the sound of Shuzhu outside.

"Young Master, I have already asked the boatman, and there are still three days to get to the port. Shall we disembark and take the land route first? ”

"Well, let's go see if the decanting soup is ready?"

"Yes, young master."

Hu looked at the bed to see if there was any fox fur that had rolled down after he fell asleep.

"Squeak-" The door of the room was opened, and Xiao Qiao walked in, looking at Hu Li's already awake and obviously weak-hearted, a smile flashed in his eyes.

"When you wake up, is your head still uncomfortable?" Xiao Qiao walked in, walked to the window and opened it, and the sea breeze blew in with salty moisture.

"No...... A little dizzy. Hu Li, who subconsciously wanted to shake his head, was dizzy when he shook it, so he instantly changed his words, "Brother Xiao, did you bring me back?" ”

Xiao Qiao walked up to Hu Li and reached out to rub his forehead, "If you dare to drink like that drunk next time, I will throw you outside and let you blow the cool breeze all night." Audacious enough to dare to drink with the boatmen, huh? ”

Hu Li's eyes narrowed when Xiao Qiao rubbed his forehead, and when he heard Xiao Qiao's words, he opened his eyes and retorted: "They all like me very much, why can't they drink?" ”

Xiao Qiao gave him the hand that rubbed his forehead, lowered his head and asked with a low smile: "Do you want to have a next time?" ”

Hu Li instantly shook his head again and again, "No, no, no, there is no next time." "How do you feel that after a night, Brother Xiao has become a little scary!

Xiao Qiao looked at him with a smile and his eyes rolled, in fact, he was not angry at Hu Li drinking, but angry that he was so drunk outside that he couldn't even tell the difference.

"Shuzhu will bring the decanting soup in a while, you remember to drink it." Xiao Qiao stroked Hu's loose and smooth hair, "Today's weather is good, I didn't say I wanted to eat fish yesterday, I'll take you to net fish later, and let the kitchen make fish soup for you." ”

"I want to eat braised pork, the braised pork made by the master a few days ago is delicious." Hu Li tilted his head, remembered what he had eaten, and licked his mouth. Xiao Qiao smiled and bent his fingers to talk about his forehead, "Are braised pork and braised fish the same thing?" How can it be generalized. ”

Hu Li wrinkled his nose, "Anyway, the master said that his braised fish is the best, or let's eat grilled fish." Hmmm - isn't it inconvenient to grill fish on a boat? ”

Xiao Qiao was helpless about Hu Li's eyes shining when he talked about eating, but fortunately, his family background was not bad, and he could still afford to raise such a little fox who loved to eat, "If you want to eat, there is nothing inconvenient." ”

"Forget it, just eat braised food." Hu Li thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Why hasn't Shuzhu come yet, I'll go to the net fish after drinking the sobering soup." ”

Xiao Qiao still had something to discuss with Master Li, and when he saw that Hu Li drank the sobering soup, he told Shuzhu to watch Hu Li and left. After all, Master Li is old, although he doesn't get seasick, but he doesn't feel very good for a long time, so he doesn't go out of the room much.

Hu Li is not very good at the fish net, and he has to help the boatmen. Hu Li stood aside, and couldn't help but go over and take a look after a while, not at all.

Finally waited for the fish to be caught, Hu Li was not particular, and followed the boatmen to the kitchen. The master's craftsmanship in making braised is very good, as soon as the fish comes out of the pot, Hu Li and the boatmen squatted in the kitchen to eat, and by the way, they also pulled the book bamboo and squatted down to eat.

"You've decided?" Master Li held the fragrant tea in his hand and sat leisurely on the recliner, swaying around without looking uncomfortable at all.

Xiao Qiao nodded and said with a smile: "Hasn't the teacher already started to cooperate with the students?" The corruption case in Jiangnan is not big or small, but if there is only one prefect, it will never be possible. ”

"It's good if you have a plan, everyone in the court knows what is going on this time, but there is no evidence." After speaking, Master Li pointed out the window, "You took Hu Li, that kid, you are too indulgent to him." ”

"It's good to leave Xiaoli like this, I like it tightly." Xiao Qiao smiled, in his previous life, because there was no evidence, even if the court could basically guess who was behind the embezzlement case, but because there was no evidence, he could only let the Jiangnan prefect be a substitute for the dead.

Three days later, Xiao Qiao took Hu Li and Shuzhu and two retinues off the ship, and the place where they disembarked was Lishui County, next to the capital city of Jiangnan Prefecture. Because Lishui County is very close to the capital city, it is only a day's journey by horse-drawn carriage, so the development is not worse than the general government city.

Hu Li was happy as soon as he got off the boat, Xiao Qiao sat on the boat for a long time, and his spirit was not good, but he still let Hu Li run crazy in Lishui County for a while.

They didn't stay in Lishui County for a long time, and after a lunch break, they rented a carriage and went to Fucheng.

In the city, Xiao Qiao had already sent someone to take care of it. When they had entered the gate, they went to the rented house.

The rented house is not very big, but there are all that should be there, and even in order to take care of Hu Li's taste, he also specially found a master who is good at making several kinds of chicken-based delicacies and two rough mothers-in-law.

That night, Hu Li ate a delicious whole chicken feast, and walked around the yard with the red halberd in Xiao Qiao's helpless eyes. Xiao Qiao swallowed the chicken in his mouth, and then ate it according to Hu Li's taste, unless he also became a fox, he would be anorexic.

Shuzhu hurriedly went to the kitchen and brought over a bowl of cool lotus leaf and lotus seed porridge, "Young Master, you can eat something else." The taste of the little boy is unique, and you don't have to be wronged to eat the same thing with the little boy. ”

Xiao Qiao waved his hand and took the lotus leaf lotus seed porridge, "It's okay, accompany him to eat some fragrant food he can enter." ”

Shuzhu thought to himself, the little boy doesn't need to be accompanied by someone to eat, and he eats a lot. If you continue to eat like this, I'm afraid that when you return to the imperial city, you will lose weight, and I will have to be beaten by the old lady and the master.

At night, when Hu Li was sleeping, he heard the sound of Xi Suo Suo on the roof. Hu Li opened his eyes, "shh

saw a figure enter Xiao Qiao's room next to him, and Hu Li was shocked. He heard Shuzhu say that this time they came to Jiangnan, Brother Xiao had business to do, but there would be certain dangers. The person who just entered Brother Xiao's room shouldn't be an outlaw.

Hu Li jumped out of the window, and his figure flashed and was about to enter through the window of Xiao Qiao's room, when he heard a voice from inside.

"Master, we have found out what you asked us to check. The prefect of Jiangnan was a cautious man, and he did have a letter and an account book left behind, as well as a token belonging to the army of King Beixian. The subordinates were incompetent, only the letters and tokens were found, and the ledger was not found, so please take a look at the master. ”

"Continue to investigate, and in addition, you go to sue Xia Ling, and find a way to find out the relationship between the wife of the Jiangnan prefect and the court." Although at this time in the previous life, there was no evidence that the Jiangnan prefect could bring down the only king with a different surname, King Beixian, but it was later turned out, but at that time, King Beixian had already rebelled, and he almost succeeded.

Xiao Qiao remembered clearly that it was precisely because of the failure of King Beixian's rebellion that Emperor Huiming completely collapsed and died in a few days. It was only then that he took advantage of the loophole to put the seventh prince on the throne, after all, the eldest prince had been deposed by Emperor Huiming at that time, and the third prince was also implicated in that rebellion and was demoted to a concubine.

He hoped that Emperor Huiming would live longer in this life, so that he would have enough time for the Eighth Emperor to grow up completely and become a real emperor, and he would also be able to truly seal the throne.

Hu Li stood by the window and was relieved when he heard Xiao Qiao speak. It turns out that Brother Xiao has so many people in his hands, and he doesn't know anyone who came this time.

Hu Li quietly returned to his room, lying on the bed and staring at the red halberd, "Chi halberd, you have eaten the spiritual grass that your grandfather gave you, why is it still growing so slowly, and the spiritual power is also rising so slowly, when will you be able to transform into a shape." ”

The black bean-like eyes of the red halberd moved, and Hu Li felt that he saw disdain in the eyes of the red halberd. Hu Li pinched the soft flesh on Chi Ji's neck and picked him up, and smiled, "Chi Ji, in view of the slow growth of your spiritual power, I plan to teach you a new cultivation method, you have to learn it well, do you know?" ”

The red halberd suddenly began to flutter its wings, and he saw the ill-will in his master's eyes, and Hu Li smiled and tortured the red halberd back and forth all night.

Early the next morning, Hu Li was in a very good mood humming and boxing in the courtyard, and in the past, the red halberd would stand next to him and watch. But today, the red halberd lay motionless on the stone table, and even Shuzhu poked him, he just looked up, and his posture did not change.

"What's going on?" Xiao Qiao will also fight with Hu Li in the morning whenever he has a place and time, but at first Xiao Qiao played the martial arts cheats he came back from Xia Yi to school, and since Grandpa Hu came, he began to fight the same boxing as Hu Li in the morning.

It is precisely because of this that Xiao Qiao knows that Hu Li's boxing style looks simple, but it is not simple to do every action in place, and the flexibility of the body is very high. If it weren't for the fact that he had been learning martial arts for half a year before, and wanted to learn boxing directly from Hu Li, I was afraid that he would be able to twist his waist directly.

"I thought of a new way to train the red halberd yesterday, so I tried it, and the red halberd should be too tired." Hu Li threw another punch and replied with a grin.

The red halberd rolled his eyes on the stone table, though he didn't know what he looked like. Last night was simply the hardest night he could remember, and he would never dare to despise his master again.

After the boxing, we had a delicious breakfast together. Xiao Qiao took Hu Li out, and when he came to Jiangnan, he naturally wanted to see the scenery of Jiangnan, so he didn't come in vain. Especially at this time, the most famous Hundred Flowers Festival in Jiangnan is about to begin.

The climate here in Jiangnan is warmer than that of the imperial city, and the flowers bloom early. Xiao Qiao originally took Hu Li to take a look, but Hu Li's nose was too sensitive, and he kept sneezing when he walked in the flowers. One by one, the nose and eyes were red, as if they had cried.

Xiao Qiao was distressed, and finally took Hu to his favorite restaurant and ate a big meal as compensation.
