Xue Shao already knew in his heart that Wu Youji's visit to apologize today definitely had nothing to do with Wu Youning, and he came to hide it from Wu Youning. It is more likely that Wu Youji listened to his sister Xuanyunzi's words before he came to apologize instead of his brother.

Of course, these were not unexpected by Xue Shao.

Although there has been no direct confrontation, some of Wu Youning's personality can be seen from some deeds. A greedy and domineering person like him is unlikely to tear off his face and apologize to anyone. Otherwise, in the beginning, he would not have been so recklessly aggressive.

However, Wu Youning also made some good fortune, he has an honest brother who is humble and sincere, and a beautiful sister who is smart and popular.

At this point, Xue Shao smiled, "General Wu, please get up!" If there is anything to say, we can talk about it slowly. ”

As soon as Li Xianyuan heard this, he knew that things had taken a turn for the better, so he hurriedly came forward to persuade him, and asked Wu Youji to get up and return to the table and sit down to discuss in detail.

Then Wu Youji took out a list and handed it to Xue Shao, which displayed a large number of jade antiques and celebrity calligraphy and paintings, as well as high-grade Yue porcelain, Xishu brocade and other things, all of which were exquisite and luxurious.

It was the eight boxes of objects on the four wagons.

Wu Youji said that this is a wedding gift given to Xue Juma by the two brothers in advance, and he hopes to accept it.

Xue Shao knew in his heart that it was a wedding gift, and the actual intention should be to make up for the loss of his tenant land in Lantian County and the severance of business in the palace. He roughly estimated that these eight boxes of treasures should be enough to build another "Yaochi Yulin".

Those losses are a drop in the bucket compared to these things. Even for the wealthy officials in Chang'an and the current Xue Shao, these eight boxes are a lot of money!

Wu Youji also said that they had taken the initiative to stop supplying the inner court, and asked Xue Gongzi to send someone to take over immediately. In addition, Wu Youji was also willing to use his six acres of Yongye field in the south of Chang'an City to replace Xue Shao's field in Lantian County.

The noble officials above the five grades of the Tang Dynasty can be given Yongye Tian by the imperial court. As the name suggests, the word "Yongye" is a field that can be passed on to future generations. Xue Shao's ten acres of Yongye land in Lantian County were inherited from his father. According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, the descendants of Yongye Tian do not need to pay taxes to the state for hereditary inheritance, which is the foundation of the life of dignitaries and dignitaries.

Chang'an is a place where every inch of land is expensive, and there are many dignitaries and dignitaries, but the land is very limited. According to the law, Wu Youji, as a five-grade Beijing official, can get six acres of Yongye Field, but it is difficult to say whether it can really be distributed or where it can be distributed. It was precisely because of Wu Zetian's relationship that he was able to get six hectares of fertile land in Chang'an, which was something that all Beijing officials coveted. Not to mention, Xue Shao is now also a five-grade general and is about to become a concubine, but he has not received an inch of land in Chang'an.

Therefore, when Li Xianyuan heard Wu Youji say this, he was directly dumbfounded.

"I blame my brother for using people improperly, so that the son's tenant land was unrented and abandoned." Wu Youji said earnestly, "I am willing to bear this loss, and I also ask Xue Gongzi not to doubt it, and replace Yongye Tian with Xia!" ”

After that, Wu Youji took the initiative to offer his land deed.

At this time, even Xue Shao was a little surprised.

Wu Youji offered to use his six hectares of good land in the capital to cash in the nine hectares of land in Lantian County, and at first glance it seemed that Xue Shao had lost money. But in terms of its true value, this is far more "sincere" than the exchange of those eight boxes of treasures!

Li Xianyuan kept signaling Xue Shao with his eyes, accept, accept! It's a windfall!

Xue Shao took the deed and glanced at it, smiled slightly, folded it in its original form and returned it to Wu Youji, "A gentleman doesn't take people's love." ”

"If the son is too little, how about offering another village located in Anyi Fang, and exchanging the land property in Lantian County with the son?" Wu Youji hurriedly said.

Li Xianyuan grinned and inhaled the cool air, looking very sorry for Xue Shao, and couldn't wait to jump forward and snatch the land deed, this is a cash cow that can provide food and clothing for children and grandchildren for several lifetimes!

Xue Shao smiled, "General Wu misunderstood. I have always been a person, people respect me a foot, I respect people. I see that you are quite sincere, and this misunderstanding will be over. I will take the eight boxes, and you will leave the land for your children and grandchildren to enjoy. But one thing to remember, I am willing to accept reconciliation for your sake and your sister's sake. And -- not as an example! ”

The implication is that Xue Shao just bought Wu Youji and Xuan Yunzi's account, and still didn't take Wu Youning in his eyes.

"......" Wu Youji was speechless with a dry brow, and looked at Li Xianyuan for help.

Li Xianyuan hurriedly stood up and said, "General Wu, since Xue Gongzi has agreed to reconcile, it is a great luck. As for other things...... The coming day is long, and it will be mediated slowly. ”

"Okay, what Brother Li said is reasonable." Wu Youji bowed to Li Xianyuan, and then bowed to Xue Shao, and said, "In this case, I don't dare to bother more, so please leave." ”

Xue Shao nodded, "Brother Li, send one to General Wu on my behalf." ”

"Okay."

The two came and went together.

Later, Xue Shao called Yuenu and Steward Chen to count the eight boxes of belongings together and put them in the treasury. Although they had seen more of the world with Xue Shao, Yuenu and the others were still a little amazed by this treasure.

"Childe, this pair of martial arts brothers is really rich!" Yuenu took a pair of jade horses and said in surprise, "This pair of jade horses alone is already worth a lot of money!" ”

"As I said, I will get back ten times the loss in the field." Xue Shao said casually.

"In my opinion, that's more than a hundred times!" The moon slave smirked, "Okay, good, don't call him rich or unkind, we will kill the rich and help the poor for Tianxingdao!" ”

Xue Shao smiled indifferently, and said in his heart, the more money sent this time, the deeper the grudge between me and Wu Youning.

It doesn't matter, the soldiers will come and the water will cover the earth. In the end, who will die of the deer, wait and see!

"Moon slave, send someone to call Yu Hongye." Xue Shao instructed, "Sue her, this son finally has the money to fund her." She should immediately start to restore the business in the palace, and recruit manpower to buy more houses, and prepare to expand the scale of workshop production and business tenfold or hundredfold! ”

"Yes, Childe!"

Xue Shao picked up a pair of calligraphy and paintings and looked at them casually, and couldn't help but smile secretly, saying that I was worried about having no money, and this windfall came just in time! Wu Youning, Wu Youning, you really didn't scrape less. Who are you messing with, provoking me? I'll let you go this time, just borrow your chickens to lay a few eggs. Next time you dare to trouble me, you'll even have to serve your chicken coop!

Later, Xue Shao and the others took the demon and went to worship her mother together. On the way back to the house, Xue Shao rode a horse alone and took the first step, preparing to go to the palace to make an appointment with Princess Taiping, and pick an auspicious day to go to Zhaoling to worship Xue Shao's father and mother.

Still walking is the Xuanwu Gate in the north, Xue Shao first settled in the Xuanwu Courtyard, and then asked the deacon and eunuch here to go to the palace to deliver the letter. The rules in the palace are strict, and it is easy for the Taiping Duke to find Xue Shao, and Xue Shao wants to find the Taiping Princess, but it is not so easy. Xue Shao instructed the little eunuch who ran errands that it was best to invite Zhu Bajie, the inner eunuch, to come over. Some things related to the business of the inner court, Xue Shao still had to discuss with him.

The little eunuch took the order and left.

After talking about some things with Xiao Zhizhong in the Martial Arts Academy, Xue Shaodouran thought, isn't it Shangguan Wan'er's routine reading time now?

With this in mind, Xue Shao ended the conversation with Xiao Zhizhong and went upstairs into his room.

Pushing open the window and looking at the side of Qiuseyuan, Xue Shao's eyes suddenly lit up.

Shangguan Wan'er is really here. However, there is another figure here today that is also as stunning as an immortal, and it also makes Xue Shao curious.

Xuanyunzi!

The two daughters are like a pair of fairies who travel together on the clouds, wandering among the colorful trees. The two seem to be studying a book together, pointing to the book from time to time and whispering a few words, or smiling and laughing quite tacitly and happily.

Xue Shao was puzzled, to say that Xuan Yunzi and Princess Taiping had dealings, it was understandable. But why did she still get together with Shangguan Wan'er, and the relationship between the two was quite close?

Is it really like like gathering, and beauties are used to appearing together?

Presumably, Xuanyunzi is quite mixed up in the inner court of the palace. Although a place like Qiusein is not a secret place, ordinary palace maids don't dare to come here at will. What's more, he still goes in and out with the diva's personal secretary.

Just as they were muttering, Shangguan Wan'er and Xuan Yunzi looked at Xue Shao's side at the same time. Then, the two girls covered their mouths and smiled together, and they flew away at the same time.

Xue Shao couldn't help but feel embarrassed, he felt a little bit "voyeuristic" and was caught, and secretly cursed in his heart, you guys together...... What kind of plane?

The second daughter disappeared from Xue Shao's sight.

Xue Shao had just closed the window, and the little eunuch who ran errands came to report that Princess Taiping had come in person, and the car had arrived outside the martial arts courtyard. In addition, it was inconvenient for the male princess to enter, and Xue Gongzi was invited to greet him in person.

Xue Shao thought that he had come just in time, but he had saved the trouble of passing the word, so he went downstairs to the gate of the Martial Arts Academy, and Princess Taiping's car was indeed here.

Seeing Xue Shao coming out, Princess Taiping got out of the car by herself. Seeing her light movements and relaxed demeanor, she must be in a good mood.

Xue Shao stepped forward to salute in public, and Princess Taiping called Xue Shao aside and said with a smile: "Xue Lang, it's rare that you will take the initiative to ask me to play, when will you leave?" ”

"Go to Zhaoling to worship, is that fun?" Xue Shao shook his head and smiled, and said, "My ancestor and mother, I am buried next to your imperial grandfather, Emperor Taizongwen, we have to go there to worship, we have to prepare carefully and not be sloppy in the slightest." ”

"Yes, yes, you're right!" Princess Taiping was in a good mood and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I will let Zhu Bajie make it clear." You and I just have to go and worship. On the way back and forth, you should also enjoy the mountains and rivers! ”

Xue Shao had no choice but to nod and smile, "Okay, just play when you have time." ”

Princess Taiping smiled.

As he was talking, a few people came from the direction of Qiusein. Xue Shao and Princess Taiping turned their heads at the same time, and it turned out that Shangguan Wan'er and Xuan Yunzi were walking towards the Martial Arts Academy with a few little eunuchs.

"Yo, they're there too?" Princess Taiping blinked, and then squinted at Xue Shao suspiciously, "Xue Lang, you are so blessed!" ”

Xue Shao tried to make a blank look, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Princess Taiping glared at Xue Shao with disdain and anger, and said in an urn voice: "Shangguan Wan'er's literary colors are flying, just enough to write a sacrificial text; Xuanyunzi's Dao method is mysterious, and he can preside over rituals. You say, I'll let the two of you accompany us to Zhaoling to worship, okay? ”

Xue Shao reflexively popped out a few words in his heart - that was too good to be better! …… I'm afraid that three women in one play, will it be a little unbearable?

But when the words came to his lips, it became, "I'm afraid it's inconvenient, right?" ”

"Hmph, hum! Bear two faces under one hood! Princess Taiping gritted her teeth angrily, "I see that you are clearly overjoyed and impatient!" ”
