The carriage swayed gently, moving slowly, shuttling between the bustling avenues of Jialing City. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Outside the car, there are many people coming and going; There was silence in the car, and the two sat with frowns and thoughts.

"Childe, it's here."

Unconsciously, the carriage stopped, at this time, Liu Xi realized that the carriage had been traveling for a long time, lifted the curtain, saw the familiar street scene around, and suddenly remembered the day when he participated in the scientific examination.

The carriage was still to be stored in the restaurant at the entrance of the alley, and the restaurant guy who came to greet him greeted him quickly, took the reins from the driver's hand, and said hello with a familiar smile.

Later, when Liu Xi got out of the carriage, the guy exclaimed, rubbed his eyes again, and then shouted again, "Ouch, isn't this the champion master Xiao Liu!" ”

At this time, it was noon, and the diners in the restaurant were not dispersed, and under this exclamation, a group of people immediately threw down their chopsticks and wine cups and strode out, surrounding Liu Xi one after another, with admiration in their eyes.

"Lord Xiao Liu, I heard that you have blocked hundreds of thousands of troops in the north, if it weren't for your bloody battle over there, how could I be so comfortable."

The guy's smiling face was about to pile up into flowers, and he was very familiar with Liu Xi's defense against the Huns in Yangqu City, and it seemed that this had become a household name, so after this guy's voice fell, the surrounding diners and people all applauded.

Seeing this scene, Liu Xi couldn't help but look back at Ma Xiu, such things, no need to think about it, it must be the credit of his miscellaneous family.

Sensing Liu Xi's gaze, Ma Xiu smiled wryly, and the Qiankun fan in his hand shook away with a bang, and there was a bit of smugness in his eyes.

After the guy finished talking about the Huns, he led the topic to the governance of Yangqu City, as if he had seen it with his own eyes, and shook his head and said it very well, so that Liu Xi couldn't help but feel that this person was not a disciple of the miscellaneous family, and this one was specially arranged by Ma Xiu behind him.

After greeting this group of people for a while, Liu Xi remembered Tian Xun'er and others at home, and he couldn't help but say hello and leave first, otherwise, I am afraid that it would not be too much to talk to these idle diners for three days and three nights.

There are countless officials in the imperial city, but there are very few people like Liu Xi who have experienced many things, if it weren't for Liu Xi's mention of resignation, how could the diners who liked the street gossip the most on weekdays disperse?

Just as Liu Xi was about to leave, there was a heart-rending wail in his ears, which was miserable, just like the ice pick of the moon, chilling people's muscles and bones.

Naturally, this made Liu Xi stop, and the diners who had not dispersed shook their heads sympathetically, as if they were quite unbearable in their hearts, but they were really helpless, so they could only continue to return to their seats in twos and threes, pick up the chopsticks and cups again, and continue the previous topic of foaming in the staggered discussion.

The job of leading the horse to the backyard of the restaurant reappeared, and Liu Xi subconsciously asked softly, "Little second brother, what's going on?" ”

The guy in the restaurant sighed when he heard this, he had been in the market for a long time, and the smile on his face after seeing how many things he had seen in his life also turned into a sad color, and he threw the rag in his hand on his shoulder, "Alas, I'm afraid you don't know about this matter, and you should be really unlucky!" ”

sighed again, this guy told Liu Xi and others about the matter, a few days ago there was a hard-working little lady with a maid from Hengzhou to Jialing, looking for his fingertip for the marriage of the husband, who knew that the husband's family learned that her family was in the middle of the road, so he closed the door and disappeared, so that the already weak little lady was hit and bedridden, and today I heard this cry, I am afraid that it is no longer good.

After that, the guy seemed to remember something, and hurriedly ran to the restaurant, "Ouch, I saw this little lady's blood better yesterday, why did something happen today?" I'm afraid that the proprietor will feel very unlucky, but it's a great thing, you can do it yourself, I have to go and take a look. ”

The crying became more and more miserable, and it was sad to hear it, which made Liu Xi feel unbearable, so he sighed, "A little lady encounters such a miserable thing, how difficult it is for people's livelihood......"

Hearing this, Ma Xiu naturally understood that Liu Xi was moved by compassion, and closed the Qiankun fan that was shaking, "That being the case, Yusheng might as well go and take a look, with your cultivation of 'auxiliary skills', you may be able to save this little lady." ”

Without saying much, Liu Xi raised his legs and walked into the restaurant, and those diners dispersed in twos and threes, after all, watching the excitement also has to be divided into occasions, and no one wants to stay in the restaurant for a little longer, for fear of being contaminated with bad luck that cannot be removed.

The owner of the restaurant is wearing a purple robe with big sleeves, he hasn't seen him for a long time, he is getting richer and richer, it seems that he has made a lot of money these days, but now his fat face is full of depression, and his stubby brows are also wrinkled together, looking at the empty restaurant hall, he can't help but stomp his feet again and again, "I'm really old and confused, I shouldn't have softened my heart to take in this little lady for a while, I couldn't help but lose the silver taels for food and housing, and I got into trouble, alas, ......"

After all, there are dead people in the restaurant, and in a short period of time, at least that room will be difficult to live in.

After saying this, the shopkeeper hurriedly shouted upstairs again, "Gou Yu, Li Quan, you quickly get their master and servant outside the restaurant, even if they die, they can't die in my restaurant!" ”

After speaking, the cry suddenly increased a little, and it seemed that the little guy upstairs was listening to the words of the fat shopkeeper.

Liu Xi and Ma Xiu entered the restaurant, which naturally attracted the attention of the shopkeeper, and after frowning and pondering for a while, he immediately greeted him with a smile on his face, "Oh, isn't this the champion master Xiao Liu, but I haven't seen an adult for a few days." ”

The other party greeted him with a smile, Liu Xi greeted him with a few words, and did not hide his intentions, and when he heard Liu Xi's words, the fat shopkeeper hurriedly led Liu Xi and the two upstairs.

On the second floor of the restaurant, there are two rows of extended guest rooms on the left and right, looking for the crying, at the innermost end of the corridor, in a narrow room, the guy who greeted Liu Xi before was scratching his ears and scratching his head, looking at the little lady in the burlap robe who was blocked in front of him with hazy tears and a look that should not be good.

Seeing Liu Xi and the shopkeeper, the guy was full of embarrassment, the fat shopkeeper waved his hand, the two guys retreated, it seemed that he didn't want to stay longer, said a few words to Liu Xi, and then turned back.

"You are ......"

The maid with swollen eyes blocked Liu Xi and Ma Xiu, looking back and forth at the two, and the eyelashes of the black crow with teardrops kept blinking.

Without waiting for Liu Xi to speak, Ma Xiu shook the Qiankun fan open, and said in a hurry, "This is the champion of the Tang Dynasty, the envoy of Zhenbei ......."

I don't know if she was stunned, or if she was thinking about something else, the maid froze in place, which made Ma Xiu feel bored, so she coughed lightly twice, and glanced at the little lady who was lying on the bed and couldn't see her face, "You better get out of the way quickly, perhaps, your young lady still has to be saved." ”

As if the divine light suddenly came, the maid came back to her senses, and hurriedly let go of the other place, while constantly thanking, "Cui'er, thank you two adults." ”

Accustomed to seeing the appearance of Ma Xiu's living treasure, Liu Xi naturally didn't bother to pay attention to it, and walked straight forward, there was a young lady with a pale face lying on the bed, her lips were already dull, and a pair of eyebrows were tightly locked together, which seemed to be extremely uncomfortable.

On the side of her bedside, there was a letter that had been opened, and the flyy boy couldn't see it clearly, but the two words on the far right Liu Xi saw it clearly.

It turned out to be a letter of resignation.

It's really a poor little lady, I can't help but think about it, Liu Xi's fingers are on this little lady's thin and bony arm to find a pulse.

Suddenly, the room became silent, even Ma Xiu, seeing Liu Xi's deep voice to diagnose the pulse, couldn't help but accept the Qiankun fan, for fear that the subtle sound of the folding fan shaking would affect Liu Xi's judgment.

After a while, Liu Xi took the gesture, this little lady's pulse is weak, it should be weak and tired, infected with illness, and it happened to be a sad thing, under many blows, she was bedridden, and her breath was like a string.

"My lord, my young lady ......"

Seeing that Liu Xi's diagnosis was over, but she was silent, Cui'er, who had already raised her heart, couldn't help but call softly, and her tears broke again.

"Rest easy, and wait outside the house for half an hour."

A little skeptical, Cui'er's eyes were full of hesitation, and when she couldn't make up her mind, Ma Xiu dragged her out of the house, "Could it be that you don't even believe the words of the champion?" ”

After the two of them left the house, Liu Xi immediately picked up the 'auxiliary practice technique', anyway, his practice of such exercises had been exposed, and now he has less worry and timidity when he uses it.

With the cultivation of his 'auxiliary practice' grandmaster, it took some effort to save this little lady who was in danger, and after half an hour, Liu Xi slowly collected the aura, and the little lady's breath became long and even.

Just as Liu Xi was about to put the little lady back to sleep in the quilt, the little lady suddenly opened her eyes and saw Liu Xi holding her with one hand, and couldn't help screaming.

As soon as this sound came out, Cui'er, who had been sitting outside the door for a long time, immediately pushed the door in, and saw that the little lady had woken up, and couldn't help but cry again.

Under Cui'er's explanation, the little lady understood that Liu Xi had saved her life, and she was busy getting out of bed to thank her, but Cui'er was stunned, countless Lang Zhong had never looked down on her, and even the young lady who had made her prepare for the aftermath was able to get out of bed and walk, and her complexion was even ruddy, and she regarded Liu Xi as a celestial in her heart.

"Xu Shiru, a slave family, was born in a scholarly family in Hengzhou, who knew that there was an accident in the family, only the master and servant of the slave family were left, and they wanted to take refuge in their husband's family, but they had to take a break from the book, but fortunately the adults rescued her life, and the little woman was grateful in this life."

With both hands in a false position, Liu Xi signaled that they didn't need to be polite, and sighed unbearably, "The world is impermanent, I hope the girl takes care of herself, I don't know what your plans are in the future, girl?" ”

Hearing this, Xu Shiru's eyes suddenly burst into tears, and her face showed a sad look, "Don't hide it from your lord, the slave family is in turmoil at the moment, and I don't know what to do." ”

Seeing the second daughter crying again, Liu Xi sighed unconsciously, "If the girl doesn't think the mountains are high and the road is far away, you can go to Yangqu City in the north and find someone called Lin Yi, so she said that it was me Liu Xi, Liu Yusheng asked you to look for him, and after finding him, let him arrange for you to be a teacher in the school." ”

Hearing this, Xu Shiru couldn't help but be dumbfounded, firstly, because there has never been such a thing as a female gentleman in the world today, and secondly, because of the Yangqu City mentioned by Liu Xi, she had also heard of it, so she connected Liu Xi in front of her with what she had heard in the past, and she couldn't help but cover her cherry mouth and whispered, and thanked her one after another.

After some gossip again, Liu Xi pointed to the bamboo green purse tied around Ma Xiu's waist, how could the latter take it off unintentionally, and presented the dozens of taels of silver and two small gold ingots in it with both hands.

"It's your Yusheng's business to save people, and now it's time for me to do something."

Xu Shiru was born in a scholarly family, and when he saw this gold and silver, he naturally shirked again and again, but he couldn't resist Ma Xiu's insistence, so he could only cry again and thank him, and accepted the gold and silver.

The matter has been settled, Liu Xi is about to leave, when Ma Xiu left, as if he remembered something, he suddenly closed the Qiankun fan, "Miss Xu, if you make up your mind to go to Yangqu City, I will send someone to escort your master and servant all the way to it in two days." ”

After Liu Xi and Ma Xiu left, Cui'er, the maid holding the gold and silver, was still in a dream, and she shook her head for a long time, as if trying to confirm that everything she saw was not an illusion.

After a long time, she pinched the pile of gold and silver in her hand again, and Cui'er said in a daze, "It must be the lord and the lady who bless Miss in heaven that let us meet the two adults......"

On the side, Xu Shiru bowed slightly, tears dripping, "Fortunately, the two adults helped, this time, we also have a new beginning......

Liu Xi and the others laughed and went down the stairs, said hello to the shopkeeper who was full of surprise in their eyes, and walked into the alley covered with dappled sunlight.

Stepping on the masonry that had not faded due to the rain a few days ago and still had traces of muddy water, Liu Xi, who pursed his lips, suddenly said, "Today, I seem to have a way to ......"

Hearing this, Ma Xiu scratched his head with a Qiankun fan and smiled bitterly, "I think I probably guessed that you want Princess Lan Jin to be divorced by Liu Han?" ”

"Yes, if Princess Lan Jin died before she got married, this family business would naturally not exist."

Liu Xi said it very lightly, but Ma Xiu was in a cold sweat when he heard it, but after thinking about it, it seemed that only this plan was feasible.

This is really a death and a resurrection.

"Yusheng, not to mention the danger, after the death of the fraud, Princess Lan Jin will not be able to be Li Tang's princess, will she agree? Even if Princess Lan Jin agreed, would Emperor Tang agree? ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Liu Xi withdrew his gaze from staring at the moss-covered walls due to the lack of sunlight, and said faintly, "I think, they will all agree." ”
