Chapter 176: Going their own way

At dusk, a carriage stopped in front of Li Xun's house.

"Young Master, I'm home."

The big black who was driving turned his head and shouted at the carport.

Li Xun lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage with a tired face.

yawned, Li Xun pinched his cheeks, a soft, today ran more than 30 official eunuchs, early in the morning began to be busy, until the end of the busy, this kind of social life, but it is really terrifying, more tired than going to the battlefield, thinking about it every year and New Year, Li Xun is helpless.

But there is no way, this is etiquette, others give you a post, it is funny to let you have time to visit, and if you don't go, then you will offend people.

A few years ago, no one paid attention to Li Xun at that time, and Li Xun was at ease, but now, everyone can see that Zhao Zhi is probably going to greatly reuse Li Xun, after all, Li Xun has only been in the officialdom for two years, and he only participated in two major battles, and he did not play a decisive role in it, even so, Li Xun was promoted by Zhao Zhi one after another, and in his early twenties, he was a high-ranking official who had achieved the fourth grade, and Li Guifei was behind him to help him, Li Xun's future future, It must be unlimited, in the past, those high-spirited, self-proclaimed high-ranking officials and nobles, also began to slowly contact with Li Xun, they may still look down on Li Xun's background, but Li Xun's current status has aroused their ideas and attention, the two sides maintain a certain friendship on the surface, it is still very important, the people in the officialdom are talking about being well-connected, having many friends, and being easy to do.

Li Xun looked at Da Hei and asked, "Da Hei, how many other worship posts are there?" ”

Da Hei picked up the package beside him, took out a stack of worship notes from it, and counted: "There are thirteen more, young master, go again tomorrow?" ”

"Today is the seventh day of the first lunar month, and it will be finished after the fifteenth year, and there is still more time, let's talk about it in a few days!"

Li Xun shook his head and walked towards the door.

When he entered the house, he didn't see any subordinates, and Li Xun was a little strange.

The Li family is now a master-level figure, just Li Mancang father and son, Xiaolian is half a master, the people are thin, and they don't need many people to serve, but Li Xun and Li Mancang have both been crowned knights after all, and they have concubines and aunts to take care of, although there are not many people in the family, but there are also thirty or forty people, and they have walked a lot of circles, and no one has seen them, which is a bit abnormal.

Li Xun raised his head slightly, looked in a direction, and faintly heard some sounds.

In the past two years, Li Xun knew that his future way out could only be in the martial arts, so he had the idea of practicing martial arts, expanded a piece of land in the backyard, and made a small martial arts training ground, as soon as he had time to practice, Jiang Daxiong's martial arts are extraordinary, but his figure and strength limit the direction of his tricks, steel is to live, soft is supplemented, Li Xun can't learn, Li Xun has found Shan Qiu and Mao Anfu, and even Huang Xu, but they all say that Li Xun learned martial arts too late, and there is no possibility of deep practice, although Li Xun often teaches Li Xun some tricks and methods of practicing qi, But the effect is not great, it can only be said that it is to concise the body and increase some strength, but after two years of practice, although Li Xun's martial arts are ordinary, but three or five ordinary people can not easily get close, for this result, Li Xun is already very satisfied, after all, not everyone can be like Huang Xun, and have the courage to lead the charge on the battlefield.

The martial arts training ground was in the backyard, and when Li Xun arrived at the place, he found that a large group of people were gathered there, applauding loudly from time to time.

Li Xun leaned over curiously, only to see that on the martial arts training ground, Jiang Daxiong and Shan Qiu were fighting each other, competing in martial arts, Mao Anfu was standing on the side, in the winter, wearing a thin dress, but he was sweating profusely, obviously he had just tried with one of them, and he was watching and resting on the sidelines at the moment.

At this time, Jiang Daxiong's spear stabbed fiercely, Shan Qiu seemed to be trying to block with a horizontal knife, but it was a false shot, and he retreated sideways, Jiang Daxiong used too much force, his body suddenly leaned forward, lost his balance, and the defense was wide open, Shan Qiu took this opportunity to kick Jiang Daxiong's calf hard, the latter was also smart, no longer trying to stabilize his body, but accelerated his body leaning forward, his right leg was slightly raised back, although he was still kicked by Shan Qiu, but he also unloaded the strength of this kick, his body leaned forward and somersaulted, fell to the ground steadily, and stabbed back violently, and fought against Shan Qiu's knife and gun, The two of them each stepped back.

Good!

When the people around saw such a clever trick by the two, they immediately applauded loudly and slapped hard.

Shan Qiu raised his head and laughed: "Happy, Big Bear, your martial arts have improved again." ”

Jiang Daxiong smiled and said: "Brother Shan is also powerful, and I almost hit the trick." ”

Shan Qiu shook his head and said very boldly: "I can't defeat you with this move, I have nothing to do, if I continue to fight, I will definitely be defeated without thirty moves." ”

Jiang Daxiong was also straightforward, shook his head and said: "I already know your tricks and routines, and I can defeat you within ten moves." ”

Jiang Daxiong said so unceremoniously, Shan Qiu was not angry, his eyes looked at Mao Anfu, and the two glanced at each other, and they both laughed.

"They are all their own brothers, and it doesn't matter if they win or lose."

Li Xun walked into the martial arts training ground with a smile.

"Why are the two eldest brothers no longer at home for the New Year, but running to the younger brother?"

Mao Anfu stepped forward and chuckled: "Come to you for a drink, if we don't get together today, I'm afraid you and I won't be able to see each other for a long time." ”

Li Xun was puzzled: "What does Brother Mao mean by this?" ”

Shan Qiu patted Li Xun on the shoulder and said, "Your eldest brother Mao is going to Henan Province to take up a post, and there are a few of us brothers, so there will be fewer opportunities to get together." ”

Li Xun was surprised: "Brother Mao is going to Henan Province to take up a post?" The court has not decreed anything about you! ”

Mao Anfu smiled lightly: "In addition to the position of the general of the left army of the forbidden army, I also have the position of patrol envoy, I will use this name, go to Henan Province first, patrol the city defense armaments in various places, and wait for the will of the imperial court to be issued, I will officially take up the post nearby, but where to take up the post in Henan Province, I don't know much at present, I can only wait for the news of the imperial court." ”

Li Xun nodded, it turned out that this was the case, Mao Anfu told himself several times that the relationship in the forbidden army was too complicated, he had no background, and the relationship in the officialdom was very simple, and he had no backer network.

Li Xun smiled: "That's okay, the atmosphere in the capital is too depressing, Brother Mao went to other places, maybe there will be more space for display." ”

Shan Qiu smiled and punched Mao Anfu's chest: "If you have the opportunity to go to your territory in the future, you can't treat me lightly." ”

Mao Anfu laughed and said: "If Big Brother Shan comes, don't say anything else, the wine is enough." ”

Li Xun glanced at Shan Qiu, although he looked full of smiles on his face, but in his eyes, there was always a trace of gloom, the good brother rose step by step, and there was more room to show his strengths, but what about himself? But he was already deprived of all official positions because of the Huang Shi matter, and now he is just a civilian.
