Chapter Seventy-Two: The Year of Ruixue Mega Harvest
"The things on the road Benhou have already taken care of for the party, just walk to Shangzhou, and the officials over there will change the carriage for the party, at least it can be more comfortable on the road. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Xuan Shijing said.
"I'm tired."
The official mission did not have much time left for Xuan Shijing and Dang Renhong, and it happened that the north wind was blowing at this time, mixed with a few snowflakes.
Dang Renhong and the two officials who escorted him around him were on the road again in the wind and snow, and Xuan Shijing stood in place, watching Dang Renhong's back slowly disappear.
This situation is a little familiar, and it is also on this Baqiao that Xuan Shijing silently watched Sun Yaoting leave Chang'an.
This bridge carries how many encounters and partings.
"Master Hou, the weather is already windy, looking at this appearance, I'm afraid it will snow heavily in a while." Chang Le said as he stood next to the carriage.
"Well, let's go back to Zhuangzi, and after you go back, you continue to lead the team in the camp, although the weather is bad, it is also a good opportunity to train the troops." With that, Xuan Shijing got into the carriage.
Chang Le drove the carriage in the direction of Dongshan County.
The heavy snowfall of the previous year seemed to have exhausted all the strength accumulated throughout the winter, and it was only this afternoon, and the snow in the courtyard outside was already a foot thick, and the servants of the house had to brave the wind and snow, put on thick cotton clothes and brooms to clear the grouper paths in the house first.
In the warm study, when the window was opened, a cold wind hit his face directly, and seeing that the subordinates outside the study were still cleaning, Xuan Shijing hurriedly stopped them.
"It's so heavy in this snow, tell me to go down, everyone who is okay will be warm in the house, don't clean it outside, and wait until the blood stops."
"Yes, Master Xie."
The subordinates knew that Xuan Shijing ordered these words to save them trouble, so he thanked them and left the yard with a broom.
"Master Hou is like this, when he goes out for a while, he will step on the snow and go out." Qin Bingyue sat on the side of the bookcase and said.
Xuan Shijing closed the window and turned around: "I'd rather step on the snow and see what they cleaned, all of them are stone slabs, which are very slippery." So saying, he returned to his seat, took the stove from the side and put it in his arms.
"Master Hou, when you went to Baqiao, a letter came from the palace, saying that you should enter the palace as soon as possible." Qin Bingyue said, got up from her position, and handed over the letter sent by the palace guards to Xuan Shijing.
"What's going on in this kind of weather, let's stay at home for two days first." Xuan Shijing said disdainfully, took the letter in Qin Bingyue's hand, and opened it to read.
"Stains." Xuan Shijing made a stained sound while looking at his mouth.
"Master Hou, what's the matter?" Qin Bingyue tilted her head sideways and looked at Xuan Shijing.
"Today, I have experienced the taste of being sued by the wicked first." Xuan Shijing smiled and said: "It's not a big deal, I had a fight with Sanbao on Zhuangzi early yesterday morning, and now I was beaten and went to the palace to complain, but unfortunately God didn't give him face." ”
Qin Bingyue was silent, the fight between his own Hou Ye and Dou Kui had already spread in Zhuangzi in Dongshan County, didn't he see this weather, are the soldiers in the camp still patrolling Zhuangzi?
There is a good thing to say that this is Dongshan Hou is afraid that Dou Kui will take people to retaliate, and the Hou Mansion is not afraid of anything, he is afraid of attacking ordinary Zhuang households on Zhuangzi.
As soon as such speculation came out, Xuan Shijing's prestige in Dongshan County reached a new height.
"The matter has been stabbed into the palace, what is the Hou Ye going to do?" Qin Bingyue asked, but she saw that Xuan Shijing didn't care so much, and felt that her Hou Ye already had a countermeasure in his heart.
"What should I do, just allow him to bully our bankers on the Zhuangzi, and don't allow Benhou to beat him? To say that Dou Kui is too stingy, he can go to the palace to complain if he fights, a guy who can't afford to lose. Speaking of Dou Kui, Xuan Shijing now has two words in his eyes and heart, disdain.
However, this royal complaint was not sued by Dou Kui himself, but by Princess Sui'an.
Dou Kui is still lying in bed and can't get out of bed, worrying about his children and grandchildren all day long, and everyone has lost a lot of weight.
What is called overthinking, it is said that Dou Kui is like this, he is young, lying in bed and hurtful, and overnight, a few white hairs have appeared.
"After all, Dou Kui is the Dou family, and he is also the concubine of Princess Sui'an, Hou Ye is like this, when he enters the palace to face the saint, I am afraid that he will not be able to avoid the accusation." Qin Bingyue said.
"It's okay, it's just a small thing." Xuan Shijing said with a smile.
The snow began to fall in the morning and continued throughout the morning.
Got up early in the morning, Xuan Shijing packed up his clothes, Qin Bingyue came to Xuan Shijing's room with a wooden basin and washing things, there was a lot of snow on his boots and the hem of his clothes, and after putting the things down, Qin Bingyue walked to the door of the room and patted the snow on his body.
The water in the wooden basin was still warm, and it was just right to wash his face in winter, he hastily wiped a few handfuls of his face, picked up the cloth towel on the edge of the wooden basin and wiped it clean, Xuan Shijing sat in front of the bronze mirror, waiting for Qin Bingyue to come over and take care of his hair.
Qin Bingyue closed the door, walked to Xuan Shijing's side, picked up the wooden comb on the table, and combed Xuan Shijing's hair.
"It looks like the snow is thick outside." Xuan Shijing said.
"Well, it just stopped in the morning, and now the people in the house are cleaning up the snow in the house, and Steward Zhong asked the people to push all the snow into the lake, and there is little rain near Chang'an every spring." Qin Bingyue said while curling her hair for Xuan Shijing.
"Yes, if there is little rain in the spring of next year, the farmers will have to count on the water from the lake to water the ground, by the way, let people go to the village to talk about it, the farmers are afraid that they are also clearing the snow now." Xuan Shijing said.
"Master Hou rest assured, the dealers have done this in previous years." Qin Bingyue said.
That's still ......
When a heavy snow fell, both Xuan Shijing and the villagers on Zhuangzi were happy, and the entire Dongshan County was covered with snow as far as the eye could see.
"The view of the lake must be beautiful on this day." Xuan Shijing smiled and said: "Tell me to go down, set up the carriage, and enter the palace today." ”
"Yes." Qin Bingyue responded, and then after turning over the big qi and putting it on the bed for Xuan Shijing in the room, she went down to order the carriage.
Xuan Shijing looked at himself in the bronze mirror, yes, the handsome young man with a heroic posture, but this dress did not match a little, and looked at the white Dayu on the bed, Xuan Shijing decided to change the cyan robe on his body to a white one.
If you want to be pretty, you must be filial.
Dressed in a big hat, Xuan Shijing walked out of the room.
