Two days later, in front of the gate of Yangzhai City.

"Can't the ancient villagers stay longer?" At this time, Ji County Ling was looking at Li Zhi with a pleading face.

Hearing this, Li Zhi shook his head: "No, Ben Hou came here to exterminate the Yellow Turban, and now that the Yellow Turban thieves have been exterminated by Ben Hou, it's time to go back." ”

"But ......" Ji Xian Ling said hesitantly: "This is just a large strand of yellow turbans, and there are some small strands of yellow scarves looting everywhere in Yingchuan, if you get to Yangzhai ......"

Speaking of this, he pleaded with Li Zhi: "Please also ask Master Hou to look at the face of Father Yang Zhai, and stay for some more time!" ”

Li Zhi patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "You don't have to be so worried, didn't you leave five thousand elite soldiers for you?" With those soldiers and horses here, it is enough to ensure Yang Zhai's safety. ”

When Ji Xianling heard this, he was even more anxious: "But those people were originally Yellow Turbans, if the Yellow Turban thieves come again, I am afraid that they will cooperate with the outside world, and they have opened the city gate before the war." ”

Li Zhi saw that he didn't believe in the people he left behind, so he comforted: "You must know that the Yellow Turban is also a human being, and his original is just a group of homeless people, just like the soldiers under Ben Hou's command.

As long as there is a little way to live, they will not rebel, and now that they have reformed and become the defenders here, they can be regarded as having an identity.

If you can live with dignity, who wants to be a thief? Ji County Commander might as well be more tolerant, leave him to wait and see the after-effects, if they really rebel, then they will send troops to exterminate them again! ”

Seeing Li Zhi's resolute attitude, Ji County Ling said helplessly: "I hope what Hou Ye said is right, otherwise the people in this city will ......!" ”

As soon as he thought of the tragic situation of the people when the Yellow Turban entered the city, he couldn't speak anymore with a sad face.

Seeing this, Li Zhi was quite speechless, he didn't expect this county magistrate to be such a pessimistic person.

The 5,000 elite soldiers he left behind not only had yellow turbans, but the commanders among them were descendants under Li Zhi's command, how could they rebel?

Then, Li Zhi didn't bother to pay attention to him and got on his horse, and shouted to the army: "Go!" ”

It was noon, at the gate of Erxianzhuang.

Li Zhi looked at the magnificent Erxian Village in front of him with emotion, and felt like he had seen the light of day again.

Although he had only been away for less than half a month, he was exhausted by all the things he had experienced during this half-month, and he just wanted to go back to the village to sleep.

"But the lord is back?"

Just when Li Zhi was stunned, a person on the city wall poked his head out and asked.

Li Zhi saw that it was Guo San, so he nodded and said, "It's Ben Hou, open the city gate." ”

"Squeak......!" With a bang, the gate of Erxianzhuang was slowly opened.

Although it is still called Erxianzhuang, it has been run by Li Zhi as not inferior to a Xiongcheng like Luoyang City.

The permanent population of the city is as much as more than 500,000, and if you add the 100,000 yellow turbans captured this time, then this city will not be worse than Luoyang in terms of number of people and prosperity.

When Li Zhi entered the city, he didn't want anything else, he just wanted to go home and sleep well, so he handed over all the affairs of China to Guo Jia and Xu Huang, and rode a fast horse to his home.

When Li Zhi came to the door of a gorgeous and unusual mansion, he was about to knock on the door, when he saw a crack open at the door.

A little girl, about three years old, carefully stepped over the threshold and stepped out of it, followed by a group of servants.

I saw that this little girl had two pigtails on her head, a pink dress on her body, and a small, lightning-like purple birthmark on her forehead, lined with a pink face, which looked very cute.

The servant who had opened the door for him bent down and bowed his head and said to the little girl, "Oh... Auntie and grandma, be careful, the Hou Ye will be back in a while, don't be in such a hurry. ”

The little girl ignored the servant, looked up, and saw Li Zhi, her eyes lit up, and she trotted over quickly.

Seeing this, Li Zhi waved his hand to interrupt the servant who was about to salute.

I saw him squatting down with a smile, and after the little girl ran over, he picked her up, only to hear the little girl shout crisply: "Daddy, daddy......"

Li Zhi responded with a kind face: "Alas, my baby girl, I miss my father, Qing'er can miss my father at home?" ”

"Well...... Li Qing thought about it and said seriously: "Sometimes I think about it, sometimes I don't want to." ”

"Oh?" Li Zhi pinched her little face dotingly and asked, "When do you want to do that?" When don't want to? ”

Li Qing tilted her head and remembered, but her little hand unconsciously touched her forehead, because she found that as long as she touched the lightning mark on her forehead, she could remember anything from the past.

Li Zhi looked at her actions, smiled mysteriously, didn't say anything, just looked at her expectantly.

After thinking for a while, Li Qingcai replied: "When my mother bluffs Qing'er, people think about their father, and when they play, they don't want their father." ”

"Really?" Li Zhi looked at her with a smile and kissed her little face dotingly.

Then, Li Zhi said softly: "Now that Daddy is back, I won't let your mother bluff you anymore, let's go, let's go home." ”

"Daddy is so nice!"

"Hahaha...... Qing'er is really Daddy's pistachio."

"Daddy, what are pistachios?"

"Uh... Pistachios, that's a long story, and Daddy told you about it......"

With these warm words, Li Zhi gently hugged his daughter and slowly walked to the main hall.

After coming to the main hall, Xun Yuan took Chun'er and Qiu'er to greet him together: "The concubine has seen her husband, and I wish her husband to get rid of thieves for the country!" ”

Li Zhi hugged his daughter and helped him for a while, and asked the three of them with a pleasant face, "What about Dan'er Zheng'er?" ”

Qiu'er hurriedly replied: "Dan'er is sleeping soundly, but Zheng'er is ......"

Speaking of this, he glanced at Li Zhi a little nervously.

Li Zhi was anxious when he heard this: "What's wrong with Zheng'er?" But what happened? ”

Qiu'er shook her head in embarrassment and said, "It's not happening, it's just... He was playing in a duck's foot tree in the backyard. ”

"That's good, wait! Duck's foot tree... Above?! Li Zhi was stunned when he heard this, but immediately reacted, and looked at Qiu'er with an incredible face.

Immediately, Li Zhi said angrily: "Bastard! Who put him on it?! If you really don't want to kill people?! ”

After finishing speaking, he ignored everyone in the hall, put the girl down, and hurriedly ran to the duckfoot tree in the backyard.

After coming to the backyard, I saw the servants gathered under a duck's foot tree, begging the little man on the tree bitterly: "Little ancestor... Come down quickly, Hou Ye will be back in a while, if you don't come down again, then Hou Ye can still spare me and wait? ”

"I won't! I'm going to pick fruit for my father! The little boy jumped up and down the tree like a little monkey, but he couldn't fall off.

Li Zhi saw that her hands and feet were weak under the tree, for fear that she would accidentally fall down, and he didn't dare to scold him loudly.

Then he said softly: "Zheng'er, Daddy is back, come down quickly, didn't you pick some fruits?" Come down and give it to Daddy to taste. ”

The little boy glanced under the tree and found Li Zhi, jumping up and down the tree with a happy face: "Daddy, you're finally back!" ”

Seeing him jumping up and down the tree, Li Zhi was so frightened that his face turned pale, in Li Zhi's opinion, this kind of scene was even more terrifying than when facing Bocai.

Then, he whispered: "I'm back, I'm back...... Zheng'er, come down and let Daddy take a good look at you." ”

"Okay, Daddy, wait a minute." Then the little boy took off a cloth bag hanging from the tree, and then he tumbled down from the tree!

"Watch out for ......!"
