Yuan Xi clenched his fists, and said with an ugly face: "Could it be a certain policy of Xi, which makes Yuan Zhi dislike"

"Childe, you can't let Yuan Zhi go, if he leaves, it is estimated that he will never come back, what can I say clearly in person" Pang Tong said a little anxiously, in his heart Yuan Xi is definitely the only male master, Yuan Zhi must have misunderstood.

"Ji will send someone to find it immediately," Chen Ji hurriedly said.

Gan Ning looked at the anxious three people in front of him, was stunned for a moment, and then waved his hand in embarrassment, and said: "Master Hou, you misunderstood, Yuan Zhi is leaving, but he took the document and went to Guangyang one step ahead of schedule, preparing to participate in the assessment of the state capital."

"What!" Yuan Xi and the three of them were surprised again.

"Gan Zhuangshi, you make it clear, what the hell is going on?" Chen Ji felt that his heart couldn't stand it anymore.

Gan Ning scratched his head embarrassedly, looked at Yuan Xi, and said with admiration: "After Yuan Zhi came to Youzhou, he inspected all aspects, he felt that Hou Ye had great ambitions, cherished the people, soldiers revered, pity talents, magnanimity, domineering and decisiveness, and occupied the sky, based on geographical advantages, winning people, if he could sweep the grassland, Mobei, he would be able to create an extraordinary cause one day, so he would have already returned to Hou Ye."

Yuan Xi's face suddenly showed excitement, and said, "Since this is the case, why did Yuan Zhi leave first?"

Gan Ning smiled bitterly, "Yuan Zhi said that even if he concealed it, Pang Zhizhong would inevitably find out his identity, and the Hou Ye would definitely come overnight, but Yuan Zhi had his own arrogance in his heart, since he had participated in the assessment of the Juxian Pavilion, everything had to be in accordance with the rules, so he set off one step ahead."

"Oops! Hee's Yuan Zhi! Hearing this, Yuan Xi slapped his thigh heavily, and said worriedly: "Why should he be like this, Xi doesn't need him to perform, his ability, no one knows better than Xi, just like Shi Yuan, how can he set off alone, something happens, what should I do?" ”

"Ning also persuaded him to do so, we came along the way, and encountered a lot of dangers, although Shiyuan has some martial arts, but it is still too far away, but he said that if the two of them leave, Chen Taishou will definitely notice, then he can't leave, so let me stay, by the way, explain to Hou Ye "Gan Ning is also helpless."

Yuan Xi's eyes froze, grabbed Gan Ning's arm, and shouted: "Go back to the state capital, the state capital"

"Hou Ye" Pang Tong suddenly blocked in front of him at this time, and said with a smile: "Since Yuan Zhi hopes to gain status and recognition with his true talent and learning, Hou Ye might as well be fulfilled, and when he wins the glory of the first place in the Juxian Pavilion, Hou Ye will receive him into the Assassin Mansion in a dignified manner, so that he can feel at ease, and other scholars will not be convinced."

"But Xi really wants to see him so much" Yuan Xi sighed, Xu Shu is the first, because of his ability, and the talent who took the initiative to serve, not because of kindness, not because of status, not because of plunder, which made him feel a sense of accomplishment in his heart, but also a deep touch.

Pang Tong smiled and said: "Hou Ye loves talents, which is admirable, but there is no need to be in a hurry, since Yuan Zhi's heart is towards Hou Ye, he will never leave, Hou Ye has been on the road all night, even if he is not tired, the soldiers are a little unbearable"

"Yes! Master Hou, Yuan Zhi is a great talent, he will not have an accident, at most a few days later, we will definitely see each other" Chen Ji also comforted.

Looking at the two, Yuan Xi couldn't help but sigh, looked into anticipation, and looked into the distance worriedly.

。。。。

At about noon, the soldiers who passed the county-by-county assessment were guarded by a group of soldiers and proudly headed towards Jixian, the state capital.

At this time, at the gate of Jixian County, a man who exuded a heroic spirit, his eyes were calm, his appearance was upright and strong, and he was dressed in a black coat and came here with a horse, and after looking at the tall city wall, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It's finally here"

Needless to say, this person is really Xu Shu who is one step ahead, Xu Yuanzhi.

After stepping into the city, a lively scene suddenly came into Xu Shu's eyes, only to see people coming and going, all kinds of shops standing on the street, peddlers and pawns shuttling back and forth, and many foreigners also mixed in, a sense of tranquility and happiness shook people's hearts.

"It's really worthy of the state capital," Xu Shu sighed.

"Big brother, where are you going?" At this time, a little guy who was not very old and whose eyes were rolling suddenly came to the man's side, and he was no more than ten years old.

Xu Shu smiled, and after squatting down, he said curiously: "Why are you asking this?"

"You are a fresh face, you must not know Jixian County, I can take you there, only three copper coins are enough," the little guy explained.

Xu Shu frowned, "You are so young, you have to make a living, what about your parents?" ”

"My parents have long since died," replied the little one, without much sadness in his tone.

A trace of pity immediately flashed in Xu Shu's eyes, and he took out a few pennies from his pocket and said, "Take it!" ”

After the little guy glanced at it, he shook his head directly, "No need Childe, I'm not a beggar, I use my own labor in exchange for money, and I don't lack food, the Assassin Mansion has placed us in, but Hou Ye said, although we are small, but in addition to reluctantly eating and drinking, we must learn to be self-reliant, I was arranged at the gate of the city to help the first person to guide the way"

A trace of surprise flashed on Xu Shu's face, and said, "You are so young, you are not afraid that others will take advantage of you or bully you."

The little guy suddenly raised his head arrogantly and said loudly: "They don't dare, I have this"

The little guy took out a small sign, on which was written the word "citation", "This is issued by the Assassin Shifu, if anyone is in arrears, I can directly sue the county government, Hou Ye said, who dares to take advantage of children, he will not spare lightly, there are already many people who have been beaten, among them there is a scholar"

Xu Shu's heart was shaken, and he said gently: "It seems that you respect Lord Hou very much."

"Of course, Hou Ye is our benefactor, he not only gives us food, drink, shelter and transportation, but also teaches us to learn words, teach us how to be self-reliant, in our hearts, he is supreme, no one can surpass, in the future when I grow up, I will go to join the army, for Hou Ye to destroy all enemies" The little guy immediately said with fanatical eyes.

"What!" Xu Shu's pupils shrank, a little guy actually admired Yuan Xi so much, what a reputation this is, it is unprecedented, it is only a Youzhou now, if Yuan Xi seizes the world in the future, what will it reach.

"Big brother, will you lead the way?" The little guy asked expectantly.

Xu Shu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Of course, you take me to the vicinity of Juxian Pavilion."

The little guy was stunned for a moment, and immediately worshipped: "Big brother, are you a scholar who came to Juxian Hall to participate in the assessment?" ”

"Yes," Xu Shu nodded.

"Then I don't want your money, the people in Juxian are all here to work for Hou Ye, the gentlemen have said, you should be grateful to Hou Ye, you do things for Hou Ye, I can't take your money" The little guy shook his head and said.

When Xu Shu saw this scene, his face suddenly sighed, and he muttered: "Young children still know the righteousness, and Youzhou is really the land of hidden dragons."
