Everyone acted in two groups, Zhao Xun and others went directly to wait outside the city, while Hu Hao took a carriage and went to Phoenix Tower to pick up Xiao Jinbao and Chen Shishi.

After waiting outside the city for nearly half an hour, Hu Hao was late.

"Someone invited?"

Someone asked excitedly.

With a smug smile on Hu Hao's face, he opened the curtain, and an extremely charming and pretty beauty covered her mouth and smiled in the carriage, and beside her, there was a woman dressed in white, this woman was slender and beautiful, with a green gauze silk hat on her head, and she could only vaguely see the outline of her face.

Everyone was very reserved, and although their eyes looked at Xiao Jinbao, their attention was always on the woman in white.

Zhao Xun glanced at the two women, smiled faintly, grabbed Li Xun, who was standing there, staring at Xiao Jinbao and drooling, and entered the carriage together.

"Dog, can you pay attention to your manners?"

Li Xun stretched out his sleeve to wipe the saliva off his mouth, remembering the scene just now, he was indeed a little embarrassed, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Such a beauty, it is indeed a bit of a gaffe." ”

Zhao Xun said lightly: "This woman's charm is too heavy, too close, I am afraid of hurting her will, you and I are still close and far away." ”

Li Xun didn't take Zhao Xun's words to heart, in his opinion, the people here, whether in terms of appearance or life experience, are probably the worst, and if they want to be harmed, it will not be his turn, what is there to worry about.

Half an hour passed, and a huge manor appeared in everyone's field of vision.

Entered the manor.

Since it is to play, naturally will not sit in the carriage to walk around, then there is no meaning, so everyone has come down from the carriage, walking, there is a hill a few miles away, surrounded by ponds, Li Xun has built a house and a pavilion on the mountain, this season, it is the time to go up the mountain to enjoy the scenery.

Wang Cheng glanced around and said, "We should go to Beishan, where the scenery is better." ”

Coming here is Zhao Xun's proposal, Wang Cheng naturally won't say anything clearly, the reason why he said this is actually to mock Li Xun.

Chen Cong said with a smile: "It's the same everywhere you play, although it's a little messy here, but it's also an afternoon, Wang Cheng, you can talk less." ”

Chen Cong seemed to be there to persuade him, but in fact he was also mocking Li Xun.

Zhao Xun frowned, a little unhappy in his heart, and glanced at Li Xun, who shrugged his shoulders, with a look of indifference, he knew that except for Zhao Xun, these people looked down on themselves, and the reason why they were polite to themselves on the surface was nothing more than looking at Zhao Xun's face, Li Xun didn't care about this at all, anyway, he didn't look down on them, in Li Xun's opinion, these people were useless except for their better background, better looks, martial arts can't lift a knife, and literature can't govern the country.

Xiao Jinbao and Chen Shishi also got off the carriage at this time.

Xiao Jinbao was still smiling and peachy, while Chen Shishi was standing there quietly, although she couldn't see her expression, everyone could feel that she was not very happy.

Zhao Xun walked closer and said softly, "Miss Shishi doesn't seem to be very happy. ”

Chen Shishi said flatly: "Childe is too careful, I just don't like places with a lot of people." ”

Zhao Xun nodded, waved his hand, and the plainclothes soldiers who followed around immediately scattered and walked away, until they were hundreds of meters away, and then stopped, but their eyes were always on Zhao Xun's side, if anything happened to him, everyone would not survive.

Xiao Jinbao saw Zhao Xun's bearing, his face suddenly had a look of surprise, and asked Hu Hao next to him softly about his origin, Hu Hao smiled, he would not say Zhao Xun's identity clearly, just said that he was a nobleman, Hu Hao's background is very extraordinary, he can be called a nobleman, the origin must not be simple, Xiao Jinbao glanced at Zhao Xun, and the charm on his face was even stronger.

"Miss Shishi, if you don't like it here, I can have someone send you back, don't force it."

Zhao Xun said very gracefully.

Chen Shishi was silent, but Xiao Jinbao was in a hurry, if she went back, would she still be left here alone?

"Sister Shishi, it's me who is not good, I shouldn't lie to you, but I didn't know that Hu Hao would attract so many people, but since he has already come, it's not too late to play for a while and leave?"

Xiao Jinbao took Chen Shishi's hand and whispered persuasion.

Chen Shishi sighed, she could only nod her head and agree, Xiao Jinbao asked her to go out for an outing, and said that only the two of them plus a groom were good, but now there are so many people here, how could she not understand the reason.

Zhao Xun made a gesture of invitation sideways, Chen Shishi nodded in thanks, and Xiao Jinbao glanced at him infinitely charmingly, chuckling and walking forward.

Li Xun and Zhao Xun walked in the front, behind them, Hu Hao and others surrounded Chen Shishi and Xiao Jinbao, where they were courteous, Xiao Jinbao looked very happy and kept laughing, and Chen Shishi was still so quiet, walking by herself, not paying attention to them at all.

Li Xun glanced back, fattened Zhao Xun with his shoulders, and joked in a low voice: "Cousin, look at Hu Hao and the others, like a pug, wagging their tails there and begging for mercy, and others don't care, it's really cheap." ”

Zhao Xun smiled, looking around, many farmers are working in the fields, although it is not the season for wheat cultivation, but it is the right time to plant some vegetables and fruits.

"I remember the last time I was here, there weren't many people here."

"I said cousin, the last time you came here was four years ago, and after so much time, of course there will be changes."

Li Xun laughed strangely, and then explained: "When the emperor's uncle rewarded this land to the old man, the whole manor was only about 30 people, the land was barren, no one cultivated, it was a pity, there were many wandering homeless people around, so I recruited 1,800 people to come over, let them farm, self-sufficient, for this reason, the old man scolded me several times, saying that I was a loser, but I was blocked back." ”

Zhao asked how much the grain tax was.

Li Xun stretched out a finger: "Harvest one percent in a good year, no taxes will be collected in a disaster year, and the borrowed grain will not be counted as interest, and it can be repaid within five years." ”

Zhao Xun stroked his palm and praised: "Dog, I can't see that you still have such a heart, in today's world, there are too many people who are extravagant, only caring about their own fine clothes and food, regardless of the life and death of others, you do this, it is very good." ”

Li Xun smiled: "During the New Year's holiday, the emperor's uncle will reward some silver money, and my aunt also gives money to the old man every once in a while, in the past few years, there are more than 100,000 taels of silver, so much money, I and the old man lie down and don't do anything, we can't spend it in this life, what do you want so much money for?" ”

Zhao Xun patted Li Xun on the shoulder, with a look of relief in his eyes, although his cousin has no literary talent, his temperament is also very arrogant, and he speaks a little rudely, but his morality and temperament are also something that many people do not have, which is why Zhao Xun likes to be close to Li Xun.

At this time, someone saw Li Xun and immediately shouted happily: "The young master is here, the young master is here." ”

Everyone put down their work and ran towards this side, they came to the front, a few people wanted to kneel and kowtow, Li Xun hurriedly stretched out his hand and shouted: "Okay, no kowtow, who dares to kowtow, this year's grain tax will be doubled." ”
