In the early afternoon, the car arrived at the Grange. Zhuang Tou and the others got the news early and rode out half a mile away.

Li Congwang looked at the uncle's tone, looked east and west with his hands behind his back, this one was not pleasing to the eye, and that one was not satisfied, so he scared a group of subordinates, all of them shrunk their backs with their chests and backs, and they couldn't wait to dig a hole in the ground and drill down.

Zhuang Tou's surname is Li, known as Lao Li Tou, in front of Li Congwang, except for nodding his head and waist, he didn't even dare to put a fart more.

Lin Xi hated to kick Li Congwang away, this second ancestor, he didn't understand anything, he was still over there to be Guan Gong, and none of the words he asked were on the point, he was an idiot.

Lin Xi wanted to go back earlier, so he decided to ask Old Man Li to bring the account book on the village as soon as possible.

Who knew that Li Congwang drank a stomach of wine last night, and he was in a hurry in the morning, so he only used a cup of tea, and he was already hungry and panicked, saying that it was not too late to see it after filling his stomach.

Lin Xi couldn't wait to rush up and bite him a few times. However, his stomach was not angry, and he grunted a few times, which was regarded as sending a real signal, so he nodded in response.

The two of them were served by the maid and the maid and served the meal. After the meal, Li Congwang said that he wanted to drink a cup of tea, and when the cup of tea bottomed out, the two sat down, one to look at the account book, and the other to ask about the harvest.

By the time Linsey finished reading the last page of the ledger, it was already dark outside.

At this time, there was heavy snow in the sky, and in a short time, it was a white expanse.

Li Congwang kicked on the door frame and said angrily: "What the hell is the weather!" ”

Lin Xi said in his heart If you don't delay the hour, I will already be on the way back to Beijing this time.

She thought for a moment and got off the kang. Standing beside Li Congwang, he said, "Third uncle, why don't we go back, when the snow closes the road, it will be even more difficult to go." ”

"That makes sense!"

Li Congwang shouted: "Come on, prepare to go back to the city!" ”

"Third master, third master, a group of people came from outside the village, saying that they wanted to spend the night." Lao Li shook the snowflakes on his body, and said anxiously on his face.

"Stay overnight, stay overnight. Such a trifle. I'm also going to bother you, get out! Li Congwang said impatiently.

"Third master, that paddle is riding a tall horse and looks burly. Out-of-town accents. It's not like we're from Xinguo! ”

Lao Li Tou was puzzled: "The little ones don't dare to make their own decisions." Only then did the third master show me. ”

Li Congwang said angrily: "If the master is not here, who are you asking for here, go." Go, go, hurry up and put the carriage up, and the master will leave now. ”

Lin Xi saw that Lao Li Tou's face looked ugly and looked like constipation, so he asked with more words: "Are these people worthy of knives?" ”

"Back to the girl, these people are all equipped with knives, fierce and fierce, and they are very human at first glance."

Li Congwang was startled, and softened: "Could it be a bandit?" ”

Lao Li shook his head and said: "Back to the third master, it doesn't look like it, he acts and speaks politely, and he also says that he wants to give silver." ”

With a knife, he doesn't look like a native of Xinguo, and he acts and speaks politely......

Lin Xi's heart moved slightly, and he thought for a while: "Third uncle, could it be the envoy of the Wei State?" ”

Li Congwang was stunned, his face sank as if it was going to rain: "How did the Wei delegation get here, I'll take a look!" Konishi, go back to the house! ”

Lin Xi nodded honestly, turned around and went into the house, waiting for a cup of tea, but did not see Li Congwang come back.

The sky was completely dark, and the snow was getting heavier and heavier, and it was already flying all over the sky.

Lin Xi stood under the eaves, and said in his heart that if this Li Congwang could be relied on, the sow would be able to go up the tree. After going for a long time, Fang is Yuan should also send someone over to squeak.

Then he waved his hand at a round-faced servant woman and said, "Go and see when the third master is ready to make a move." ”

The servant woman received the order and quickly disappeared into the darkness

Xia Feng took a look at the weather and knew that it was not realistic to return to the city at this time, so he ordered the servants to clean the guest room, burn the warm kang, replace the mattress and quilts, and prepare for the night.

After another half a cup of tea, the round-faced servant woman went and returned, and said, "The third master said, I won't leave today, please have dinner and rest early, and set off again tomorrow at dawn." ”

Lin Xi narrowed his eyes and said sharply: "Who is it?" ”

"Miss Hui, it is indeed the envoy of the Wei State, led by the King of Chu of the Wei State. Our third master and the king of Chu hit it off at first sight, and this will be a banquet and drink together! ”

Lin Xi listened and sharpened his back molars.

……

Grinding the back molars with Lin Xi, there is also Wen Ruihao.

Since saying goodbye to Meimei, he has left a thought in his heart, wanting to help him find someone. Ordered the guards not to take the official road all the way, but to take the small road. If you come across a small town or village, stop for a moment and send someone to inquire.

In the afternoon, the group couldn't find the way in the woods for a long time. At this time, it was snowing heavily, and I somehow arrived at this Zhuangzi.

When I inquired, it was a coincidence, it was the Zhuangzi of the new upstart Xiaoyao Hou Mansion in the capital, and it was even more coincidental that the third master of the Hou Mansion was in the village.

Thinking that he had been on the road for the past few days, he had already been tired of traveling and driving, so he ordered the guards to rest and recuperate. By the way, make friends with this Li Sanye.

The house on Zhuangzi has always been simple, this Wen Ruihao prince was born, although he is used to brocade clothes and jade food on weekdays, but he can still endure it.

However, this trip, I brought four delicate beauties, and when the beauties looked at the surrounding environment, they were hesitant, and said that they were delicate and expensive, and it was difficult to live in this kind of place, so they pestered Wen Ruihao to complain.

Wen Ruihao has always been a lover of flowers, and after thinking about it, he said: "Brother Li, I don't know where else in this village is clean and warm, and the four of me ...... Ay! ”

Li Congwang had already been dazzled by the four tall and tight-chested women behind the King of Chu, and when he heard this, he said casually: "In my niece's courtyard, the house is the best." ”

"Oh?"

Wen Ruihao smiled: "I don't know if I can let them stay overnight." ”

"What's so hard about this, I'll send someone to squeak!"

"In this way, thank you Brother Li, come, let's hit it off at first sight, and we won't get drunk at night! Shu'er, you sit down at Brother Li's side and take good care of Brother Li for this king! ”

The woman who called the name of the book sat next to Li Congwang with a smile, her plump chest gently rubbed his arm, and she spat out orchids and said, "Master." Books are waiting for you to drink! ”

Li Congwang smiled knowingly and leaned his mouth over.

……

"What, let the four concubines of the King of Chu live in this courtyard!" Lin Xi stared at the sky speechlessly.

Third uncle, third uncle, you have too much yellow soup in your head.

There is a way to harm people, and the heart to prevent people is indispensable. The King of Wei traveled thousands of miles to Beijing, and all he brought with him were all masters of one top and one by one.

This person inexplicably stayed in the village, you don't ask the reason, you don't ask the right and wrong, let people stay, it's just it. This will also let the concubines of the family live in the inner courtyard, in case the family comes to meet the outside. We're all in the nest. You don't even know how to write a dead word.

Lin Xi sneered and said to the little guy: "If you go back to the third master, you will say that I am used to being quiet, and I don't like outsiders to live in a house." You tell the third master again that you have to hurry tomorrow morning. Let him not drink too much. Barely misguided. ”

The little guy didn't dare to say a word. He saluted and turned to leave.

Xia Feng stepped forward, stuffed the soup bowl into Lin Xi's hand, and said lightly: "This house is three-in." There were three or four houses in the front yard, which were a little simpler, but they were enough. What's more, those women are all concubines of the king of Chu, and they live in the same courtyard with the girls, which is not etiquette. ”

Lin Xi took a few sips of soup, looked up and said, "Don't pay attention to it, someone must have said a few good words again, and I can't even tell the difference between the southeast and the northwest." Let's have a meal, rest early, and go back to Beijing early tomorrow. ”

Xia Feng nodded and answered one by one, and ordered the servants to fetch hot water and wait for the girl to wash.

……

"Brother Li, look at how this is a good ......"

"Master Li, the scholars have never lived in such a house after following the prince all these years. Doesn't Li Ye pity the fragrance and jade at all? ”

Li Congwang said with a sad face: "Lord, if it is someone else, I, Li Congwang, don't say a word, just give an order to settle the matter, but my niece, not someone else, not only my father holds her in the palm of his hand, it is my aunt, and the current queen mother also thinks highly of her." You see this is good, this outer courtyard, the prince only cares. I went back to her courtyard for the night. ”

Wen Ruihao is only a bit of a noble woman in the Xin Kingdom, and he disdains to live in the same courtyard with his concubine, and sneers in his heart.

The women in the north have always been enthusiastic and bold, and they are not informal, like this kind of twisted and pretentious woman, he really can't look down on Wen Ruihao.

However, this Li Congwang is a cheerful person, and he has an inextricable relationship with the palace, so it is better to take the opportunity to coax him and find out some secrets of the Xin Kingdom, and it will be convenient to act when the time comes.

Wen Ruihao made up his mind, so he gave Shu'er a look.

Shu'er understood, leaned half-on Li Congwang's arms, and slowly wrapped his bare hands around his chest......

……

Linxi's master and servant rested early and didn't say anything all night.

When he woke up in the morning, Lin Xi was worried about it, and ran to the courtyard with his hair scattered, and saw that the snow was still falling, and the ground was three inches thick.

When Lin Xi saw this situation, he felt that something was not very good. With such a thick snow, if it is on the official road, the car can still turn away. If you are on a dirt road, I am afraid that after only a few steps, I will have fallen into it.

Lin Xi regretted a little in his heart, he knew that this was the case, he should have gone back at night yesterday, it was too late to say anything.

Xia Feng saw that the girl's face was sad, and said with relief: "Don't worry, girl, when the snow stops and the sun comes out, we can go back." Hou Ye saw that we didn't go back last night, and he will definitely send someone here today. ”

Lin Xi said in his heart that there is nothing to do when he goes back, since God keeps people, it is better to stay down first.

"Send someone to the front yard to see if the third master is awake, if he wakes up, let him have an idea!"

Xia Feng nodded to the servant woman behind him, and the servant woman came out in response.

Xia Feng smiled: "It's cold, the girl should go into the house, the slave will comb your hair for you." ”

Lin Xi waved his hand and said with a smile: "What's the hurry, it's rare to have heavy snow in Xin Kingdom, it's not too late to build a snowman with me and then go to wash!" ”

……

"Lord Wang, the snow outside has not stopped, and a thick layer has accumulated on the ground, Lord Wang, you see if we continue to rest or set off in the snow." Chen Bing, the commander of the guards, said loudly outside the house.

Wen Ruishang slept naked with his concubine, frowned when he heard this, and pushed the woman in his arms.

After half a pillar of incense, Wen Ruihao stood under the eaves, exhaled a long breath, and said, "Let's talk about breakfast!" ”

Chen Bing said with a sad face: "Back to the prince, the little one has already sent someone to urge him, saying that it is not done yet." The brothers have been hungry for a long time. ”

"What about Third Master Li?"

"Yesterday I was so drunk that I haven't woken up yet!"

Wen Ruihao said unhappily: "Let's go, follow me to take a look, the rules of the people in this Hou Mansion are also sparse and ordinary." ”

……

Wen Ruihao stepped into the courtyard where Lin Xi lived with his hands behind his back, and before he could stand firmly, he saw a white thing smashing towards him.

Chen Bing's eyes were quick and he blocked in front of him.

Lin Xi looked at the two men who suddenly broke into the courtyard, and the smile disappeared from his face little by little.

Seeing this, Xia Feng hurriedly stood in front of the girl and scolded: "What person, this is the courtyard where my girl is resting, why don't you quit quickly!" ”

Wen Ruihao took a step forward, his eyes swept sharply over the two women in front of him, and a smile couldn't help but appear in his eyes.

Wonderful, wonderful! I never thought that I met two beautiful women in this remote place, it seems that God is appeasing his heart that has traveled thousands of miles and traveled all the way!

The woman of this Xin country is really different from the Wei country, not to mention that the skin that can be broken by this blow is something that the women of the Wei country do not have, just this small and exquisite, bumpy and convex figure, it must be touched in the hand, and there is another touch.

Lin Xi saw that this person was dressed in brocade clothes, extravagant, and his eyes were burning like a thief, so he didn't like it, so he didn't bother to say hello, brushed his loose hair, raised his legs and left.

"This beautiful girl, stay a little!"

Lin Xi frowned slightly, and turned to look at the visitor.

"This ...... I shouldn't have nagged the girl, but Li Sanye didn't wake up from a hangover, and the guards under my command were all rough people, and they were already hungry, so I asked the girl to make it convenient and urge the cook in the village to hurry up. ”

Lin Xi was silent, only looked at the servant woman beside her.

The servant woman hurriedly said: "Back to the girl, the people who stayed there, there are a total of more than 200 people, the village has never received so many people, yesterday's dinner village has called the daughter-in-law and girl of the village to help, today the people who helped have not come, presumably the kitchen people are too busy to come, so it was delayed." The slave and maid will urge again. ”

Lin Xi nodded, thought for a while, and said, "How much grain and vegetables are stored in the village, but is it enough?" ”

The servant woman shook her head and said, "You have to ask the head of the village to know this." ”

"Where's the head man?"

The servant woman lowered her head and said, "Yesterday, the third master was happy, and ordered someone to get a few tables of banquets, accompanied by a few of the head of the village, I heard that he was drunk and hadn't woken up yet!" ”

No wonder it's a mess.

Lin Xi raised the corner of his eyes slightly, glanced at the man in brocade, and said, "Xia Feng, you go to check the rice grain in person, and send someone to invite some daughters-in-law from the village to come over to help." Li Zhuangtou drank and made a mistake, fined Yueyin for a month, and next time, he asked him to roll up and leave. ”

After that, Lin Xi blessed Wen Ruihao and said: "Pengmen Burrow, the hospitality is not good, the prince forgives me!" ”

It seems that this woman should be Li Congwang's niece, although she is small, she has her own bearing, not bad, not bad.

A smile appeared on Wen Ruihao's face, and he raised his eyebrows and said: "The road is closed by heavy snow, I'm afraid I will have to talk for a few days!" ”

Lin Xi somehow, when he saw that the king of Chu was smiling and not smiling, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, coupled with Liu Baimei's visit to Gaofu at night, he suddenly felt disgusted with the Wei people in his heart. (To be continued......)
