I haven't seen him for a year, and Li Hao has lost weight even after being black. The original round double chin is gone, replaced by a dark face.

Mao Wenlong said that Li Hao had a hard year, and it seemed that the old fox was right. The wings of the young eagle are beaten out, and only if the wings are hard enough can they soar into the blue sky. Although the process of beating is very hard, it is worth a thousand dollars.

"It's dark! Lost weight too! Li Xiao patted Li Hao's shoulder, and the young man's shoulder also had some meaning of being thick and strong.

"Big brother!" Li Hao looked at Li Xiao with tears in his eyes.

"You have suffered a lot, big brother in your heart, my father and mother died early, and if the men of our family want to become successful, they have to go through this way."

"From Jinzhou to Shanhaiguan, I have walked every inch of land. And often more than once! The difficulty now is that the land will freeze in the winter and become soft in the spring......," Li Hao said, taking the map from the bag of his entourage.

"This is not a joint meeting of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Railways!" Li Xiao patted Li Hao on the shoulder, when Li Hao was young, he ran around. Now that my brother is older, I don't know what to say to him.

"Is this your companion?" Li Xiao pointed to the same dark and thin boy behind Li Hao as him.

"Oh! His name Xiong Cixu is a filial piety person in Hubei, don't look at him only fifteen years old, but he is the most able to endure hardships. What is rare is that he is also literate, and he can memorize the ninety-nine multiplication table twice. Li Hao pulled the cramped and restless Xiong Cixu to introduce Li Xiao.

"See...... I've seen the handsome! Xiong Cixu's hand was still being pulled by Li Hao, but his body slipped down to kneel. Before, my ears were full of stories about this legendary handsome, but today seeing the deity caused a high level of mental tension.

"Huh! Today is a family banquet, since you are Brother Hao'er's companion, let's cook a meal together. Don't be restrained, there is no handsome or scholarly book here, some are just Li Hao's eldest brother. Li Xiao scooped up the bear and gave it to his shoes.

Now that he is famous, it is good for an ordinary young man to see that he can stand. This Xiong Cishu just stuttered a little, which is rare.

"Little Bear! As I said, my eldest brother is the best person. Today it's all delicious, but it's hard to make. "Seeing that Li Xiao can treat his little friend like this, Li Hao is obviously very excited about you. Pull Xiong Ci to run to the dining table, and sit down according to Xiong Ci Shoes.

Just now, he pretended to be an old and serious look, but now he has returned to his naughty appearance.

Li Xiao smiled helplessly, no matter how much he pretended, he couldn't change the fact that he was only sixteen years old. In later generations, when he was still a middle school student, he was now forced to become the independent Li Siye.

Tokugawa Chihime brought the last dish of braised prawns, and it was considered a full life.

Li Xiao didn't speak, and others didn't dare to speak. If he doesn't move his chopsticks, others naturally don't dare to move them.

"What are you doing in a daze, eat!" The scene was too embarrassing, and Li Xiao put down his chopsticks. I simply tore off a chicken leg with my hand and gnawed it like that.

Seeing that Li Xiao was eating so boldly, Li Hao also let go of his hands and feet. The untie knife cut the fat elbow, and the bear gave half of the shoes, and kept half for himself. No one even looked at those seven-inch-long prawns and fan-sized crabs. Seafood is eaten after a meal, and whoever eats it eats at dinner. Ten years ago, when you couldn't eat pork?

Tokugawa Chihime looked at the wolf-like brothers in surprise, and the bear Cishu who gradually let go. It seems that three generations of nobles are really not talking.

"Come on! Go for one! Li Xiao picked up a glass of wine and drank it all with Li Hao. Li Hao was also unambiguous, and the Wuliangye wine was empty. Xiong Cixu next to him didn't seem to drink much, and after taking a sip, he coughed violently.

Li Xiao smiled! Li Hao began to drink when he was on Li Xiu's boat, and the sea was damp and cold. A small glass of Wuliangye every day has become a routine. From the captain of the ship to the ordinary soldier, all of them have a part. The younger brother became an alcoholic, and Li Xiao was not surprised at all.

I didn't eat much of the food, and the wine had dried up two bottles. Looks like we're going to have to get another bottle up soon. The two and a half children were so drunk that they were red-faced, and they no longer had the restraint they had just now. Li Hao and Xiong Cixu, who were drunk, began to fight fists, and the scene on the wine table suddenly became warm.

I don't know when the banquet will end, Li Xiao only knows that he took one last look at the wine bottle on the ground before he fell unconscious. Before I could find out how many bottles I had drunk, my consciousness was blurred, and then I ...... And then there is a wood.

I slept very soundly, and I hadn't drunk so much for many years. Every day is busy, either at war or on the way to war. After ten years of trembling and walking on thin ice, I finally got to where I am today, and I really need to have a drink.

In the evening, someone fed Li Xiao water. But no matter how much water he fed, Li Xiao always felt that the water was floating in his stomach. The water was about to overflow from my stomach, and my throat still felt dry and smoking.

The power of the fire burned, and the whole body was hot and uncomfortable. Finally, the contents of the stomach squirted out with pressure. Sure enough, he relieved his sorrows, wiped a handful of saliva sticky with meat foam, and continued to discuss life with Zhou Gong.

When I woke up in the morning, my head was groggy. The braincase seems to be good and the brain is no longer on the same channel, no matter what you watch, it's turning. The roof of the bed is turning, the ceiling is turning. Turning my head sideways, the table is turning, and the chair is turning. Seeing Tokugawa Chihime's good-looking face, she was still turning.

Just turned his head, and his head was dizzy. Lying on the bed, he vomited a big mouthful, and now there was nothing in his stomach. In addition to gastric juice, there is only bitter bile water!

Rest for a while with your eyes closed, with a warm towel covering your forehead. A bowl of warm millet porridge is fed into the mouth, and there is finally something in the stomach. The warm feeling only lasted for a minute, and the millet porridge that was finally swallowed was pushed out by strong pressure, or it was more appropriate to squirt out.

It's over! Spit out what you eat, spit out what you drink. My stomach began to feel uncomfortable again, and my head became even more dizzy. If it weren't for a group of people to stop him, Li Xiao would have had the urge to hang on to the southeast branch.

I don't want to go on the road, but time waits for no one. Qingming Festival must rush back to his hometown Ivory Mountain, which is only a few days away on the Shanhaiguan Road. What's more, Li Xiao had to look at the construction of Liaodong on the road. The things on the music are always unconvincing. For the sake of their own interests, the magistrates would try to beautify the lives of the common people.

In Jizhou, Li Xiao caught the village chief in Yurou Township. With such a big Liaodong, God knows how many things are still going on. Come down and take care of it yourself, and those bastards will be a little more restrained.

The officialdom of the Ming Dynasty has a strong hereditary nature. Although Liaodong was the first place where Li Xiao implemented the new policy, many local officials were still talented. This is also something that cannot be helped, the illiteracy rate is too high. You can't make an illiterate leader, can you manage the place well, besides, the magistrate must be able to understand what is written in the official documents of the imperial court!

These people can be used, and they will naturally inherit the legacy of Ming officialdom. If you want to eradicate the accumulated evils of the Ming officialdom, I am afraid it will not be a short-term process. This requires cultivating a large number of people who can be replaced, and then waiting for these people to mature.

Helpless, Li Xiao could only cheer up and close his eyes to let Tokugawa Chihime get dressed. When walking, it is like stepping on a pile of cotton, and mixing garlic with your feet seems to be twisting Yangge.

As soon as he walked to the door, Li Xiao sobered up a little. When he saw Li Hao and Xiong Cixu, riding on horses as if they were nothing, his heart was itching with hatred. These two little bastards must be a lot of alcohol. Wine is practiced, I haven't drunk much at all over the years, so naturally I am not the opponent of these two little guys.

Holding back an upset stomach, he rejected Tokugawa Chihime's suggestion to ask him to get into the carriage. Turning over on the horse, he watched as Tokugawa Chiki got into the carriage worriedly. Arch your hand to Mao Wenlong, who came to see him off!

"Let's go!" With an order, seven horsemen and horses escorted a carriage out of Shanhaiguan.
