Xu Zilin choked up, he suddenly felt that he shouldn't think of Jiang Ci so outrageously, he was just a simple-minded child.

"Of course, it's not to offend them, it's just that they are from the palace, and I don't want to enter the palace, so I want to avoid any conversation with them."

Jiang Ci listened to Xu Zilin's words, and the doubts on his face became even worse.

"My lord, now you are just a small county magistrate of Penglai County, isn't the ultimate goal of all officials hoping that they can stand in front of His Majesty, why are adults unwilling, and adults really only want to stick to this small Penglai County?"

Xu Zilin nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Jiang Ci could only open his mouth, he had an empty stomach to say, but he didn't know how to say it to Xu Zilin.

"Okay Jiangci, since you have grown up, and this winery does not need to be guarded by a talented person like you, if there is nothing to do in the near future, I will allow you to leave the winery and leave Penglai County."

Xu Zilin turned his head to look at Jiang Ci, his eyes showed a joy, but this joy changed its meaning in Jiang Ci's eyes.

Jiang Ci suddenly knelt at Xu Zilin's feet, he looked up at Xu Zilin, his eyes were red, and his eyes were full of tears.

"Lord Prefectural, you must not drive me away like this! After Jiang Ci was helped by the adults, he secretly made up his mind that he would always follow the adults in this life, and asked the adults not to leave in a hurry. ”

Xu Zilin frowned tightly.

He didn't expect that Jiang Ci looked like such a big person, and he would use this kind of trick on himself.

Just as he was hesitating whether to say yes, he saw the workers in the courtyard outside the door, their eyes glancing into the house.

After all, Jiang Ci shouted just now, and the people nearby also heard it clearly.

Xu Zilin suddenly felt that his head hurt.

"Okay, okay, you get up and talk first, don't kneel, what's not to say well, it's really."

Xu Zilin didn't want himself and Jiang Ci to become everyone's after-dinner conversation.

He hesitated for a moment, but finally compromised with Jiang Ci.

Xu Zilin reached out and held Jiang Ci's arms to let him get up, but what he didn't see was a smile on the corner of Jiang Ci's mouth.

"Tell me about you, such an adult, kneel down first without saying a few words, and when others see it, it's time to say that I'm putting on an official stand."

Xu Zilin helped Jiang Ci to get up, and said to Jiang Ci in a thoughtful voice.

"My lord, it's not that it's because I admire my own adult, so I want to follow him all the time."

As he spoke, Jiang Ci paused, and after standing up, he looked up at Xu Zilin's eyes before continuing to speak.

"If the adults don't agree to let me stay by the adults' side, Jiang Ci will kneel at the door of the prefectural government every day until the adults agree."

Xu Zilin's brows have never relaxed.

Jiang Ci's words are a bit of a threat to himself, and the last thing Xu Zilin likes in his life is to be threatened.

"If you were going to talk like that, there wouldn't be much more to say between us, and I just thought I had never known you."

Xu Zilin's tone suddenly became cold, and Jiang Ci realized that he had said the wrong thing.

He stood still with his head down, motionless.

In the end, it was Xu Zilin who was defeated first.

"Then tell me what you can do with me."

Xu Zilin spread out on the chair next to him, and then he spoke to Jiang Ci.

In fact, there are many people in Xu Zilin's county mansion, but there are not many people who can really make him a confidant.

If Jiang Ci hopes to follow him, then it is not a bad thing to develop his own henchmen in the future.

Xu Zilin had such an idea, so he asked Jiang Ci.

"My lord, I can do whatever I do, I can rush up when I encounter bandits, if I meet people from the court, I can also help adults convict or drive them away, if adults have sons in the future, I can also teach my son's martial arts......"

Jiang Ci's eyes lit up and he began to talk endlessly about Xu Zilin.

But after Xu Zilin heard the word son, he couldn't bear it anymore.

"Okay, okay, let's talk about it here, it's too early for my son, and I don't think women are as easy to handle as wealth."

In the second half of the sentence, Xu Zilin said very quietly, Jiang Ci didn't hear it clearly and asked, "My lord, what did you say just now?" ”

Xu Zilin realized that the words hidden in his heart had been said by himself.

He smiled a little awkwardly: "Haha, did I just say something?" No, did you hear me wrong? ”

Jiang Ci obviously didn't believe it, but when he wanted to ask, Xu Zilin had already opened the topic.

"Since you want to follow me so much, then I will agree to your request, but I also have conditions."

When Jiang Ci heard this, he had no other thoughts in his heart, and stared at Xu Zilin expectantly.

"Your Excellency, no matter what the conditions are, I will try my best to do it."

"The condition is that you can stay with me for the time being, and if I am satisfied after a while, I will promise you to follow me all the time, if I am not satisfied, I will drive you away when the time comes, and you must not have any complaints, okay?"

Jiang Ci nodded and agreed without hesitation.

"Don't worry, my lord, as long as my lord allows me to follow my adult, I will definitely be inseparable from me in the future."

Xu Zilin looked at the confidence in Jiang Ci's eyes, and he still didn't say anything else after all.

"Okay, you can stay in the prefectural government during this time, but remember to visit here from time to time, after all, there is no one here in this winery that I am particularly comfortable with."

Xu Zilin said, then got up and walked towards the door.

Jiang Ci didn't speak after answering, but just followed behind Xu Zilin.

After Xu Zilin walked around the winery, he walked under the big tree in the front yard again.

"Jiang Ci, you've been here long enough, do you think these wines can really be sold for twenty-one bottles in the capital?"

Xu Zilin's eyes looked at the leaves above his head, and the sunlight shining down from the gaps in the leaves.

Jiang Ci looked at Xu Zilin with deep eyes, although he didn't know why Xu Zilin cared about the capital, he still said his thoughts.

"My lord, to be honest, I've never been to the capital, so I don't know what the capital will think of these, but I think that the things in our Penglai County are already quite expensive."

Jiang Ci said, and quietly glanced at Xu Zilin's expression.

After all, the pricing of most things was given by Xu Zilin.

When he said such a thing, he was a bit of a black-hearted Xu Zilin.
