Unparalleled Concubine

Li Xin talked and laughed with Mu Ying, and his heart calmed down a lot. Suddenly he remembered something, and smiled at Mu Ying: "Speaking of which, the Qi family we are staying in has a very beautiful daughter. That old master Qi is probably interesting, but I still want to marry the princess, so I don't have the blessing to enjoy it, do you want to meet Brother Mu?"

Mu Ying shook her head.

"No more."

Li Xin asked in surprise, "Why?"

Mu Ying is two years older than Li Xin, and he has already reached the age of marrying a wife and having children, and now he has separated from the Mu family in Shu County, and is about to spread his own branches.

The dark-faced man looked solemn, and said solemnly to Li Xin: "There is a girl waiting for me in the mountain nest in Shu County."

Li Xin gave him a blank look.

"You are so dark, does anyone still like you?"

Mu Ying was a little unconvinced.

"Hou Jingde is darker than me, he is about to have a grandson!"

Li Xin laughed, and patted Mu Ying on the shoulder: "That's right, brother Mu, don't worry, I will send someone to help you take that girl to the capital in a few days, so that your Mu family can spread out in the capital." leaf."

Mu Ying shook her head and sighed: "I'm afraid her parents won't agree."

"Then go grab it."

Li Xin stood up, and said with a chuckle: "You are now Habayashi Weiyouro, a senior official of the fifth rank, and she will only live a good life with you, and will not be wronged."

While speaking, Li Xin was about to go out.

Mu Ying woke up from her stupor, Li Xin had already gone a long way.

"Where are you going?"

Li Xin didn't look back.

"Go to Qishan and see how my mother's grave is doing."

Chapter 354 Brother

This time, not only is the mother's tomb repaired, but also the uncle's ashes are buried next to it, and the place is in Qishan Mountain, so the amount of work is still very large.

Originally, Zhou Xianzun wanted to find some Fengshui masters for Li Xin to take a look at Fengshui, but Li Xin refused and insisted on repairing the grave at the original site.

Magistrate Zhou thought for a while, and felt that there was no problem.

After all, this Marquis Li has been in this position for a year since he came to Beijing, so the feng shui here must be excellent.

At this time, there were already a hundred people on Qishan Mountain helping Li Xin to build the grave. Most of these people were corvees confiscated by the government. They had no wages and brought their own food. Everyone sends [-] yuan.

A qualified tomb must have tomb chambers, tomb passages, etc. In short, the amount of work is not small. It is estimated that it will take at least one or two months to complete. In these two months, Li Xin is not planning to leave Qiyang County. Wait here until the tomb is completed before leaving.

It stands to reason that after the death of his parents, he should observe filial piety for three years, but he really couldn't survive at the beginning. Not long after his mother left, he went to Beijing with his uncle and failed to observe filial piety for his mother. Now he has to spend more time in his hometown. Stay with your mother.

On the other hand, he has to wait here for Mu Qing's reply.

When Nanshu was destroyed, it was the Mu family who rescued the royal family of Nanshu, King Min. Therefore, the Mu family occupied a large part of the power among the survivors of Nanshu. It can even be said that if it was not because of Mu Qing's father, Mu Ying His grandfather, Mu Zhen Yuzhong, should have been reduced to puppets by King Min's faction, instead of becoming the core of the Southern Shu survivors like they are now.

Even now, the Mu family accounts for at least [-]% of the power among the survivors of Southern Shu. This is a very large family, large enough to be the key to breaking the situation.

Therefore, Li Xin had to wait for Mu Qing's accurate reply before he returned to the capital and decided on the next move.

………………

Time always flies by quickly, a month has passed in a blink of an eye, time has entered late spring, and about half of Mrs. Xiao's tomb on Qishan Mountain has been built.

During this month, Li Xin lived in the Qi family compound most of the time, often went to Qishan to see the progress of the construction, and took Zhong Xiaoxiao around when he was free, and his life was quite leisurely.

It's just that he never waited for Mu Qing's arrival, and he didn't even wait for Mu Qing's reply.

But this day, he waited for a young man.

This young man went to the gate of Qi's house alone and called the door, saying that he was a relative of Marquis Jing'an. Li Xin didn't plan to see him at first, but he had nothing to do, so he asked Habayashiro to let him in.

After meeting, Li Xin frowned slightly.

This guy looks familiar.

After the young man saw Li Xin, he bowed in a respectful manner and said, "Jincheng Li Shuo, I have met my brother."

Li Xin frowned even deeper.

"What did you call me?"

Li Shuo raised his head with a respectful expression: "Brother."

With his hands behind his back, Li Xin chuckled: "Interesting, last month I just dealt with a family that pretended to be relatives, and now someone came to the door again."

Li Shuo looked calm, cupped his hands and said, "Brother, you should recognize my father Li Dingshu."

Li Yan followed the old Hou Ye Li Zhijie early on. Although he did not participate in the battle of breaking Shu that year, he made a lot of efforts to put down the rebellion in Shu, so he was named Ping Shu by the old Hou Ye Li Zhijie.

Li Xin frowned, then relaxed.

"Since you are Li Yan's son, you should know that this Marquis has enmity with the Pingnan Army, and you are here to throw yourself into a trap?"

Li Shuo shook his head slowly, then looked up at Li Xin, and said word by word: "General Li is my adoptive father, and my biological father is..."

When he said this, he was interrupted coldly by Li Xin.

"No wonder you look so familiar. You don't look like Li Yan at all. If you leave here now, I don't need to kill you."

Li Shuo gave a wry smile, bent over to Li Xin and said, "My brother has already heard about what happened to my elder brother. In fact, you and I have experienced the same situation, and my younger brother can be regarded as... an illegitimate child. It's just that my younger brother was lucky enough to find his father early. He was fostered by his father under the name of his adoptive father."

"roll."

Li Xin was expressionless.

"I don't know what you are here for. I only know one thing. If you continue talking, you will die."

Li Shuo took a deep breath, knelt down, bowed his head, and said, "Little brother, I have absolutely no other ideas when I come here. I just heard about my brother's deeds early in the morning and admired him. I heard that my brother is not far from Shu County, so I came here on my own." See you brother."

He looked up at Li Xin, and said with a wry smile: "The elder brother should be born in the second year of Chengde, and the younger brother was born in the third year of Chengde. When the Li family was at a critical moment of life and death, we are all the blood of the Li family left by our father..."

Li Xin looked indifferent.

He slowly pulled out the Qingpheasant sword from his waist, pointed at the young man whose eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to his own, and said coldly: "I was in a good mood today, but because of your few words, all the good mood is gone, you Listen clearly, in this life, what Benhou most wishes to see is the collapse of the Li family's house, and seeing Li Shen try his best to protect the Li family behind him, is this sentence clear enough?"

Li Shuo shook his head slowly.
