When Li Xiu arrived in Kaifeng, snowflakes suddenly fell from the sky.

Listening to the subordinates of the family, on the day he went to Fengyang, many officials had come to visit, all of them were officials who were not qualified to greet him the day before, and some officials with relatively high ranks.

There was another thing that surprised Li Xiu, that is, Zhu Huaiyu had also been here, and he would be in his courtyard with Li Mingshan.

How did these two girls come together?

When Li Xiu heard this, he suddenly felt puzzled, and walked towards the backyard.

Under the eaves of the corridor, Yang Yuxuan was taking two girls to play leaf cards with Wang Bing. On the other side, Dong Wan's several women gathered together and made up a game.

Seeing this situation, Li Xiu secretly thought to himself: "This house seems to be divided into two mountains? ”

Li Mingshan's eyes were sharp, and she was the first to discover Li Xiu, and said with a happy face: "Big brother is here?" ”

Only then did everyone look up, and when they saw Li Xiu coming, they were about to get up, but Li Xiu stopped: "You guys play with you, don't worry about me." ”

He'er brought a chair and asked Li Xiu to sit down beside him, and quickly made a cup of tea.

Li Xiu didn't understand the leaf brand, so he just sat on the side and tasted tea.

Soon, the first game ended, and Yang Yuxuan's side took the lead in dispersing the game. I heard Zhu Huaiyu snort: "You are a showman, are you quite busy now?" ”

Li Mingshan also said on the side: "He's a busy man!" ”

Li Xiu glanced at them, looked at Zhu Huaiyu, and said with a smile: "My horse was frightened that day and almost fell me to death, the county lord should know who was behind the trouble, right?" ”

When Zhu Huaiyu heard this, he avoided his gaze weakly, and pretended to be surprised: "Is there such a thing?" I wasn't there, how do I know? ”

Seeing her reaction, Li Xiu had already confirmed the guess in his heart. But I heard her continue: "I see, it's not that someone is bad, it must be that you are not good at riding. Well, it must be so! ”

Li Xiu was depressed for a while, and let her play tricks, but rely on her own equestrian skills.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Zhu Huaiyu felt proud for a while, and said with a smile: "I'm a showman, do you need to ride a horse with the bishop of this county?" My second brother's riding skills are not as good as mine! ”

Li Xiu also smiled and said: "Okay, the county lord has unparalleled riding skills, and when I have the opportunity one day, I will ask you for some guidance!" ”

Zhu Huaiyu's flattering words were very useful, and his tail was raised higher: "Don't worry, with the training of this county lord, you can't be far behind." ”

Li Xiu suddenly asked, "Why did the prince let you come out alone?" ”

Zhu Huaiyu pursed his lips and said, "He didn't worry that I would come out alone, Yang Zhen sent me over." I sent him that stuffy gourd again. ”

Li Xiu realized that she didn't like to let the guards follow. It just so happened that he was also going to the palace, so he said, "I'll send you there." ”

Zhu Gongfang, the king of Zhou, once saved Li Xiu's life, and he had a deep friendship with Zhu Shaoye. This time I came from the capital, and I should go to pay homage to King Zhou first.

Seeing Zhu Gongqi again this time, Li Xiu could obviously detect that he was much older again.

is already old, and he has experienced the matter of Zhu Shaoyang, the son of the world, presumably he is very uncomfortable in his heart.

Li Xiu came to visit, but Zhu Gongyu was very enthusiastic, sitting in the top position, chatting with Li Xiu. Zhu Shaoye and Zhu Huaiyu, brother and sister, became a foil, sitting quietly aside, occasionally saying a few words.

After chatting for about half an hour, Zhu Gongyu became a little tired, and under the persuasion of several people, let Zhu Huaiyu help him to rest.

Zhu Shaoye and Li Xiu took the opportunity to go to the study.

Zhu Yujian's matter, Zhu Shaoye has already gotten the news, and he can't help but feel a little sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox: "You, will I be like him, and end up imprisoned in Fengyang for life?" ”

Li Xiu could understand him, but he couldn't say anything about relief at this time. He said in a deep voice, "No! If the matter is revealed, we will all destroy the fate of the Nine Clans! ”

Zhu Shaoye was stunned when he heard this, stared at him for a long time, and then smiled: "I understand." ”

Things have not yet reached the point of no return, and both of them can retreat, but they both unanimously chose a path to go to the dark.

The reason why Li Xiu insisted was because he knew the development of history.

In this era of strict institutions, if you want to live better, you must strive to improve your status. His current official body was given by Zhu Youzhen, the imperial court, and once the Ming Dynasty died, everything would eventually be empty. If you don't become a force, how can you protect yourself and your family when you lose your country?

Zhu Shaoye also has reasons for his insistence, he has ambitions and ambitions, how can he afford a mere Kaifeng?

He knew a little about Li Xiu's affairs in the capital. There is such a person in the court, and he is willing to assist himself, why worry about big things?

To fight for the world and drive away foreign enemies, soldiers and horses are needed.

More importantly, there must be money and food.

Sweet potatoes and sweet potatoes have been grown, and the harvest is not bad. Corn and potatoes are still being planted on a trial basis.

As a vassal king, he has his own way to make money. There is also a lot of land under the name of the Zhou Palace.

What Li Xiu wants to do is to turn Kaifeng Mansion into a big granary, which can save lives in disaster years. In addition to being able to sell at a high price, it can also be used to satisfy hunger when food is scarce.

Of course, it is impossible to eat all whole grains. Fertile land is used to grow ordinary grains, and land with poor harvests is used to grow coarse grains.

Zhou Wang Zhu Gongfang is old, and he rarely takes care of things, and many affairs are handed over to Zhu Shaoye to take care of. Li Xiu told Zhu Shaoye in detail about the benefits of coarse grains.

Then, Li Xiucai said: "I have tried to plant some a few days ago, and now there is a harvest in three months, and I will ask someone to send some to the prince tomorrow." ”

After listening to this, Zhu Shaoye thought about it seriously before nodding and saying, "It's okay, if it's really like you, my palace will vigorously promote it." ”

"By the way, it's time for the prince to save more food."

Li Xiu reminded. At this time, most of the big families will have food stored at home, and he specially reminded him, obviously because he felt that this was not enough.

Zhu Shaoye was puzzled: "Why is this?" ”

In Li Xiu's memory, there will be a big locust plague in the years after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, and it is absolutely right to save more food.

He didn't know exactly what year it was, so he had to say: "There may be a catastrophe in a few years, and more food will always be useful." ”

Zhu Shaoye knew that he had a Taoist master, but the Tao was calculated by him using the secret method of the master. He nodded suspiciously, "I see." ”

Suddenly, he asked, "After this incident, what else will my palace do?" ”

Li Xiu smiled meaningfully: "Bribe the Son of Heaven!" (To be continued.) )
