Chapter 13: The Blind Horse

When the news that Feng Yuxi, the scholar of the court, came to Beiting with King Yu of Great Xia, few people knew, so they came quietly, without alarming the prefectures and counties along the way, until the car came to the mansion of the lord of Luanming County.

The county lord was training outside, and the county horse went to the upper reaches of the Remnant Yang River to build a reservoir, and the only person in the entire county lord's mansion who was qualified to drive was Mr. Qin.

Old Mr. Qin didn't have any surprised look when he received the report, he just showed a smile and muttered to himself for a while.

"Bypass Liang Guogong and come directly to the county lord? It seems that the emperor is still dissatisfied with the Duke of Liangguo, and this hand is divided and co-opted to play well, but I am afraid that it will not go according to his wishes, so I will gather the retainers and generals in the palace and follow me to welcome King Yu. ”

Soon, His Royal Highness King Yu and Feng Yuxi officially stepped into the gate of the Luanming County Lord's Mansion.

"Master Qin, it's been three years since Jinzhou was separated, but it's so important for students to miss it."

"Hahaha, I haven't seen you for a long time, Feng Shilang's demeanor is still the same!"

Mr. Qin and Feng Yuxi are naturally old acquaintances, and the two of them look like they are cold and warm, hello and I am good, but they don't say a word about the purpose of this trip.

The two people said some unnutritious words to each other, thanked the emperor again, praised King Yu, and were full of boredom in eagerness.

On the contrary, the thirteen-year-old King Yu was very excited when he came to his cousin's house for the first time, and after greeting the elders, he couldn't sit still, so he began to walk around the county lord's mansion under the pretext of urinating, looking east and west.

A prince who has not opened a mansion, coming to Beiting is actually an additive, basically to play and increase his knowledge, Feng Yuxi is the spokesman who represents the will of the imperial court.

Yuwang also knows that he can't talk about business, because he is also happy.

Walking all the way, I got lost in the courtyard of the county lord's mansion, and I was anxious for a while, but I couldn't find anyone, so I had to look around like a headless fly, but after looking for a long time, I was hungry and thirsty, and my legs began to be sore.

"Which boy are you? Why did you get to Beiyuan? A very gentle voice came.

King Yu was anxious at the moment, and when he heard the voice, he immediately turned his head to look, it didn't matter what he saw, his young and ignorant little love sinus broke through in an instant at this moment.

I saw a beautiful woman from the Western Regions walking towards her, her wavy hair was simply tied, she was wearing a well-fitting and generous long-sleeved silk skirt, and her jade arm was holding a small vegetable basket.

The woman from the Western Regions walked in front of King Yu, and King Yu found that this woman had an extraordinary temperament, not the enchanting of ordinary Hu women, but a faintly noble temperament.

"My name is Latis, and I'm a guest of the county lord's mansion, what's your name? Where did it come from? "Who else can walk freely in the county lord's mansion and dress so luxuriously in the Western Regions, but Latis, who is a guest secretary.

King Yu had not yet come out of the influence of Latiss's plump and graceful charm, and after being called, he realized that he was actually looking at the towering beauty of Latisi's chest, and he couldn't help but blush immediately, hurriedly took a half step back, took a deep breath, and bowed slightly.

"Ben...... My name is Li Xiao, yes, I am the cousin of the county lord of Luanming, today, the first time I came to the county lord's mansion," Yuwang Li Xiao stammered a little because he was nervous.

"It's actually the county lord's cousin, hehe, aren't you playful and lost in the mansion?" Latisi grinned and handed Li Xiao a freshly cleaned courgette.

"No, no!" For the enthusiastic and royal sister Latisi, Li Xiao has no experience in dealing with it, but keeps retreating.

"Beiyuan has just been opened, a few days ago it was still in a deserted state, you walk alone, you will get lost if you don't keep it, come, go with my sister, my sister will take you to the Agricultural Research Institute to sit for a while," Latisi couldn't see that Li Xiao was lying, so she stuffed the flower melon into Li Xiao's hand, took his hand and walked towards the Agricultural Research Institute.

Li Xiao has not yet begun to develop, his body is thin and weak, and his size is only up to Latisi's chest, so he can only be led by Latisi.

He was a little resistant, but when he heard that he was going to take him to the rumored Agricultural Research Institute, he gave up his resistance, which was the place he had always wanted to see.

Then again, Latis's hands are so soft!

"The Agricultural Research Institute just opened three days ago, and it is in the outer mansion of Beiyuan, if no one takes you, you won't be able to find a place at night," Latis was very friendly to this younger brother named Li Xiao, she subconsciously felt that the county lord and the county horse were good people, so their cousin would not be a bad boy.

"Sister Latis, you just said that you are a guest of the county lord's mansion?" Li Xiao asked curiously.

"Well, Junma is a broad-minded man, and I have great admiration for the selection and appointment of talents, regardless of background," Latis replied with a smile, and her words were full of gratitude to Zhang Peng.

"I heard that my brother-in-law of the county horse killed the wealthy merchants of the Western Regions and the noble sons of Zhao Jiaxun in order to compete for a stunning beauty, can't it be you?" Li Xiao chewed on the courgette and asked vigilantly.

Latis pursed her lips and shook her head, "I don't know which mouthy is chewing on the root of his tongue!" I would have liked to have a wise man like Gunma to punish the merchants and slay the evil dragons for me, but the Gunma didn't care much about my appearance except that he was interested in the agricultural knowledge in my head. ”

"Impossible! How can a stunning woman like you have a man who is not impressed? Li Xiao was amazed.

Latis stopped and looked at Li Xiao with a smile, she was naturally charming, and her smile was even more breathtaking, which made Li Xiao swallow saliva unconsciously.

"I didn't expect the county lord's cousin to be a man who knows how to appreciate," Latis looked at Li Xiao's cramped demeanor, and couldn't help but laugh, "Little Li Gongzi, there is nothing impossible, the county lord and the county horse seem to be not dealing with each other, in fact, in my opinion, they are happy enemies, and the emotional entanglement between the two is difficult to explain for a while, but one thing I can be sure of is that in the eyes of the county horse, except for the county lord, I can't see any other woman." ”

"Isn't that blind!" Li Xiao snorted.

Latis was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing, laughing wildly: "Yes, yes, it's just blind, what Xiao Li Gongzi said is too right!" ”

The two of them walked while talking and talking, and gradually became acquainted.

About a stick of incense time, Li Xiao came to the Agricultural Research Institute as he wished.

At present, the Agricultural Research Institute is still very empty, except for the desks, pens and inks, and books in the public hall, which have been completely placed, the other places are still empty.

Next to the public house is a large breeding building, opposite is a sample room, and behind the public house is a semi-open farm, relying on the small river, a tributary of the Remnant Yang River.

Li Xiao watched from a distance that there were many soldiers on the farm who were covering the land with large pieces of silk cloth, and another soldier was carefully transplanting some flowers and trees he didn't know.

What made him most curious was the sample room, where there were some fruits that he was very unfamiliar with, and in the middle was a golden gourd as big as a horse's head, which he had only seen from afar in the Qinwen Hall of his emperor's father after the Beiting military merchant congratulated him.

When he came back to his senses a little and looked at Latisi, he found that Latisi in the Agricultural Research Institute seemed to be a different person!

Latis was in the breeding building when she scolded a young scribe in a green coat and a small hat.

"It's sunny today, so why don't you take the seeds out and dry them? Don't you think that the package is foolproof if it is coated with a layer of lime? How can you be so lazy! ”

The young scribe kept bowing down and apologizing: "Ceci (Latis's surname) is a guest, I just don't think I can finish it alone, so I ......"

"One person can't finish it, report it to me, I'll solve the manpower problem for you, seed storage is the top priority, don't be sloppy, if you are as lazy as today, then leave the Agricultural Research Institute!"

Li Xiao took a deep breath, and couldn't help but look at it.

Sister Latis looks better when she is fierce!

Just when Li Xiao was thinking about it, Latis came over to him and asked him softly to help dry the seeds.

Sister Latis's request must be met, of course!

So, the seventh prince of Great Xia, Li Xiao, the king of Yu, was in a daze and willingly volunteered to work as a temporary worker in the Agricultural Research Institute.

It wasn't until near noon, when he was grumbling with hunger, that Li Xiao reacted, where am I? What am I doing? As a nobleman, I've been working here all morning!

Just when his indignation was about to rise, the gentle sister Latis brought a lunch: "Brother Li Xiao, are you hungry, this is the roast lamb chops, gourd porridge and side dishes that my sister prepared for you, eat them while they are hot." ”

Li Xiao immediately became angry again, shook his sour arm, and carefully served the dinner plate: "Thank you, Sister Latisi, it's so fragrant!" ”
