Chapter 36: The Si Family
"It's okay, he won't be arrogant for long." Si Shaoyu opened his mouth, and his tone was affirmative, as if he was in his chest.
Through these days of cultivation, Si Shaoyu's injuries have also healed, and he was surprised that Jing Xi's medicine was amazing, and at the same time, he was also very glad that he had Jing Xi's help.
Not long ago, King Rong and the others returned to Beijing, but he did not go to the capital with him, but stayed in the Drunken Immortal Residence to recuperate.
With King Rong and others here, his unkind and unrighteous eldest brother did not have the courage to reach out to the Drunken Immortal Residence, yes, his life of recuperation was very smooth.
In the meantime, he also knew more about the county lord, and after King Rong and they returned to Beijing, he immediately changed the place where he recuperated from his injuries and secretly moved to his mansion, avoiding the manpower sent by Si Shaodong.
"Master, my subordinates always feel that something is wrong." Si Ye opened his mouth suddenly, he understood the character of Si Shaodong, the eldest young man of the Si family, he definitely did not have the courage to do such a rebellious thing, but he heard that Si Shaodong had recruited a new staff member by his side, and it seemed that this staff member was very suspicious.
Thinking about it, although the previous Si Dashao was dissatisfied with the castle lord giving the position of the young master to the young son, that is, his own master, he didn't dare to make any moves, and now he not only killed the old castle master, but also blamed the master, and even sent someone to eradicate his own master and make a black hand on the master.
This is not like what the confident, arrogant, and incapable and talented Si Dashao can do.
If there is no one behind this to provoke and provoke, or there is a mastermind behind the scenes, then what is the purpose of this person, is it ......? Hiss!
Thinking about it like this, Si Ye couldn't help but sigh, this person's plan is very big, if his guess is true, then the master is indeed in danger.
"I know, I have a guess, and I almost confirm it." Si Shaoyu knew in his heart that although his "good big brother" was indeed not a broad-minded person, he would not fall to the point of killing his father.
If you want to come to this pool, it's very deep.
"Master, what are we going to do?" Si Ye knew that his master had a plan in his heart, but he had to consult his master about what he planned to do.
"Recharge your batteries and find out the details." Si Shaoyu spit out a few words lightly, but the thirteen-year-old boy has become more and more mature after this incident.
Si Shaoyu vaguely heard his father mention last time that someone wanted his father to join him, but unfortunately his father refused.
Now that I think about it, I am afraid that there is some conspiracy behind this, someone should have taken a fancy to Sijiabao's transportation line and wealth, right?
Thinking about it this way, the staff around Si Shaodong may not be simple, and it is very likely that they were sent by that person! What should that person be? It shouldn't be possible for big officials, the officials in the capital cherish their feathers, how can the long live lord allow officials to be involved with the strength of the rivers and lakes? So, there is no doubt that the royal family is noble, what should I do? Sijiabao is the painstaking efforts of the ancestors of the Si family for several generations, and must not be reduced to the minions or victims of the royal family!
I thought, things are a little tricky, it seems that we still have to develop our strength as soon as possible, otherwise we will have no power to resist, and then Sijiabao will be destroyed, and there will be no eggs under this nest?
During this thought, Si Shaoyu already knew it in his heart.
Later, his suspicion was confirmed to be almost true.
In this way, it can also be seen that Si Shaoyu is worthy of being the most outstanding person of the Si family's generation, with great sensitivity and outstanding means, and it is precisely because of this that Si Shaoyu later became the husband of many boudoir ladies.
"Yes, master." Si Ye nodded, silently noted down this time, and later sent a few capable generals to investigate the matter in detail.
"By the way, focus on the staff next to Si Shaodong, be careful, don't expose it!" Si Shaoyu followed and advised, he had learned the ability of the staff, the city was extremely deep, and he was extremely cunning, so he must not be detected by the other party, otherwise it would be difficult for things to progress.
"My subordinates understand!" Si Ye instantly understood the master's intentions.
Huadu County Command
"Brother, do you think the county lord will remember us? I don't know when I'll see the county lord. A young girl in a yellow skirt looked up at her brother and said.
"Yes, I'll definitely see you again later." The handsome boy next to the girl said.
These two are the brothers and sisters Jing Xi met last time in Huadu, and the two of them are the daughters of the Lingjia family in Huadu County, Huo Wenqian and Huo Wenjing.
Since knowing the county lord, Huo Wenjing's temperament has been much more restrained.
Their father, Huo Yuanxiu, the commander of Huadu County, visited King Rong when he arrived in Huadu, only to see Gu Yang, a henchman beside the prince, and never had the honor to see the prince.
This is really, another village!
After that, he became more and more strict with his children, but he did not obey his daughter as before, and wanted to take the opportunity to change her pampered temperament, so as not to collide with the county lord.
Now, his daughter Wenjing has also changed a lot, but she lives up to his expectations, and she has repeatedly told her to get along with the county lord, don't be petty, and don't be too pleased, so as not to be disgusted.
"Brother, I don't know when the county lord will be able to come to Huadu again next time, and I must invite the county lord to visit the beautiful scenery of Huadu at that time." She said, gesturing excitedly, as if imagining that kind of scene was coming.
Today's Huo Wenjing is wearing a yellow mattress skirt, embroidered with a few flowers competing to open on the placket, the neckline of the round stand-up collar sets off the slender jade neck of the youngest daughter's family, and the sleeves are wide-brimmed sleeves, and the edge of the sleeves is embroidered with seven-petal hyacinth flowers, each petal is attached to a blue-white pearl, and the silver-white pendant on the waist is just right to add a sense of elegance.
The long hair was curled up and gently tied with a light blue ribbon, interspersed with milky white ribbons, and a string of pearls hung from the dark blue hairpin, shining dazzlingly in the light.
On the other hand, Huo Wenqian on the side, he was wearing a miserable green robe, his hair was tied up with bamboo hairpins, and his body had a fragrance of wood different from that of blue musk. The evening clouds on the horizon gradually closed, and the sky was glazed. The face of the miserable green boy is like a peach apricot, his posture is leisurely and elegant, there is still a lonely and thin snow and frost posture, the young man's pupils are smart, and the crystal beads are as attractive.
The young man reached out and touched his sister's hair, chuckled, and thought to himself, this county lord is really a wonderful person, his sister's pampered temperament is now much more restrained, even her mother asked her to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting is not as disgusted as before, and even took the initiative to ask the master for advice on the essentials of poetry.
Now it seems that my sister has changed a lot, I wish I could always be like this, such a sister is very dazzling.
Thinking about her previous temperament, I am afraid that she will offend others, and it will save her parents from worrying about her sister all the time.
"Well, the county lord's fiefdom Kangyang County is not far from Luoyang, and the county lord will definitely go to the fiefdom to inspect at that time, maybe he will come to Huadu then." Huo Wenqian opened his mouth and said, in fact, he was not sure in his heart, but later the county lord was indeed as he thought, and he did not forget to come to Huadu to gather with them when he came to Kangyang County to inspect, which made them sigh.
"Well, I don't know if the county lord has arrived in the capital or not, what are you doing now." Huo Wenjing does not have many close friends.
Xu is the usual teaching of her she remembers in her heart, and her sister is simple-minded, although a little pampered, but for those little sisters who are hostile to her or even scheming, she can perceive, and then do not interact with them, after a while, my sister actually has no friends.
Now that I met the county lord by chance, my sister regarded the county lord as a friend and confidant, yes, after the county lord left, my sister talked about the county lord many times, Huo Wenqian thought.
"At the speed of water transportation, I think it should be about the same." Huo Wenqian has not been to the capital, he has been admitted to Tongsheng before, that is, he can only be taken in Huadu when he takes the county exam, but because he is about to take the government exam, he has been to Fucheng with his friend Jin Ling and others before.
Here, Fucheng is the title of the center of each county, Huadu is only a county under the jurisdiction of Luoyang County, and Fucheng can be the center of Luoyang County, where the county guard is located, and in the Xia Kingdom, the Tongsheng test is also called the county test, which can only be obtained in the county, as for the government test, you need to go to the capital city of each county to take the test, and only by passing the government test can you become a showman.
Yes, before, Huo Wenqian invited his friends Jin Ling, Zhao Bijun, and Huang Zihao to go to Fucheng, he met them in the academy, studied together, and then participated in the county examination together, and several of them were fortunate to pass the county examination to become children.
Therefore, when Huo Wenqian invited them a few years ago, they all agreed, and they all agreed, so they had that trip to Fucheng.
In addition, Huo Wenqian mostly stays in Huadu on weekdays, and he has only heard of the capital and has never been there.
Of course, he also has a strong ambition in his heart, wanting to gain fame and get ahead through the examination, and he can also take the opportunity to see the prosperity of the capital.
As a native of Xia Guo, he is proud of today's prosperous world, and his heart is eager to have some achievements.
"Daddy." The brother and sister shouted in unison.
It turned out to be their father, Huo Yuanxiu, who walked in. Then a clear and refreshing voice sounded: "Well, Qian'er, Jing'er, but are you talking about the county lord?"
Following the line of sight, the person who came into his eyes saw that he was wearing a dark purple official uniform, about thirty years old, with a square jaw, clear eyes, sword eyebrows flying obliquely, and the whole face looked very handsome, but the whole person gave people the feeling of being magnificent, and at first glance he was a great man with the demeanor of a leader.
This person is Huo Yuanxiu, the county magistrate of Huadu, who has just finished the government affairs of the county government and returned home, and as soon as he enters the door, he hears the words of his children.
"yes, Daddy, are you done?" The first to speak was her daughter Huo Wenjing, who was not afraid of heaven and earth on weekdays.
"Well, Qian'er, the academy is closed today?" Seeing that the son on the side was at home so early today, I thought it should be a rest.
"Yes, Daddy, I don't have to go to the academy today." Huo Wenqian replied, the young man is not like his sister, in front of his father, he has always been in awe and serious.
In Huo Wenqian's heart, his father is his role model, and he admires his father on weekdays, yes, he looks calm and calm in front of his father, which is all learned from his father.
"Today, there are fewer county government affairs, and I came back much earlier." On weekdays, Huo Yuanxiu is always busy until sunset before replying, and it is rare to go home so early today, yes, he opened his mouth to explain.
"Daddy, let's go to lunch together, it's rare that you go home early today." Huo Wen spoke quietly, grabbed his father's hand with both hands, and was about to take him to the dining room.
"Okay, okay, Daddy will change into his regular clothes and go." Huo Yuanxiu was still wearing official uniforms, so he asked his children to go first, saying that he would go in a while.
"Daddy, then my brother and I will go first." Huo Wenjing spoke, and then pulled his brother to the dining room.
However, after their mother-in-law Wen heard that the master had returned home, she immediately got up and came to the front yard.
"Master, you're back." Wen stepped forward.
"Hmm."
After changing clothes, Huo Yuanxiu and his wife went to the dining room.
A family of four had lunch and the atmosphere was harmonious.
