Jianghu is so big

Xu Yunzhong originally came to find someone to drink with, but unexpectedly he found a job for himself.However, he had nothing to do recently, so while pouring wine, he lazily said: "It's not easy, you just need to continue complaining and say that you can't leave the doctor for a while."

"I thought so too." Zhu Yanyin propped her hands on her cheeks, frowning, "But Doctor Jiang just came to see me and said that he had talked to Uncle Zhang a few days ago, and I just need to rest in the future. No doctor can do it."

"Who can say for sure about the illness, you can pretend to be ill again."

"What if my uncle sees that the situation is not good and invites the imperial doctor from the palace with great fanfare? Besides, he looks shrewd and not easy to deceive."

"Then you say that Chi Tian's kung fu is extremely high, and he has already set his sights on Zhu's residence. Only Palace Master Li can protect you in the whole world."

"The uncle will only dispatch more troops from the Northeast garrison."

Xu Yunzhong was speechless for a while. It turns out that the power also has the trouble of being powerful, that is, the life is too carefree, and it is difficult to artificially create some twists and turns.

Zhu Yan lay on the table listlessly, "Oh."

Xu Yunzhong suggested again: "Then tell the truth."

Zhu Yanyin raised her eyelids to look at him, what do you mean?

"You just said that you are worried about Palace Master Li and want to follow him all the time, what's the matter?" Xu Yunzhong answered frankly, "Even if it is temporarily inconvenient to confess your admiration in your heart, but when you walk in the rivers and lakes, you can meet confidantes and friends who will go to life and death together. It’s also a beautiful thing, why bother to hide it like a thief, it’s boring.”

Zhu Yanyin sat up and thought about it carefully, that's right, even if there is no high-sounding reason that can convince her uncle, as long as she persists in wanting to go to Syracuse, she should be able to do it - just like when she made trouble for no reason and insisted on cultivating an alchemy at home Furnace, although the whole family was overwhelmed with worry, didn’t they also repair it in the end?

Although it is not appropriate to rely on the indulgence of my family to rely on wind and rain, but now the situation is special, and I don't care too much, and I will just apologize to my uncle in the future.

Xu Yunzhong asked: "How?"

Zhu Yanyin patted the table and did just that.

He originally wanted to go to his uncle right away, but it was late at night, the village was dark and quiet, and the army garrison was heavily guarded.

"What are you looking at?"

Suddenly a question came from behind, Zhu Yanyin was taken aback, his heart was pounding and he asked, "Why haven't you slept yet?"

"I guess you haven't slept yet." Li Sui stepped forward, took off his cloak and wrapped it around him, "It's snowing heavily outside, don't catch a cold."

There was still the other party's body temperature on the cloak, Zhu Yanyin was wrapped in such warmth, and immediately felt a little soft affection, her heart was sweet and sour, and she didn't want to leave even more.

In the next moment, Li Sui asked, "Tell me, what excuse did you discuss with Xu Yunzhong so that you can stay by my side?"

Zhu Yanyin: "..."

I'm leaving!

Li Sui smiled and pulled his sleeves. The moon was dark and the wind was high, and the surroundings were pitch black. Zhu Yanyin secretly rubbed his hands up, interlocking his fingers with him, and said stiffly: "Who said I want to follow you?" gone."

"Then you want to live in Frostskin City?"

"Do you want me to live?"

"I don't want to." Li Sui said, "Before, I thought that relying on Zhufu's guards alone would not be able to protect you well. It would be better to stay by my side, which would give you more peace of mind."

"What about now, now that the army is protecting me, are you relieved?"

"Don't worry, but I can't bear it." Li Sui tightened his fingers, "Actually, I should have left you in Frostskin City."

"I'm me, and I'm not your property. If you say you want to keep it, you can keep it?" Zhu Yanyin rubbed her nose and had her own idea. Let me go to Syracuse with the army, so that someone will protect me and not let you be distracted, and maybe I can help you at critical moments."

Li Sui smiled: "Okay, you decide."

The snow is fluffy and thick, crunching when stepped on, quiet and peaceful.

The two of them didn't go back to their residence, but continued to walk aimlessly far away side by side, and occasionally said a few meaningless but interesting words, the warmth in their palms was conveyed to each other, and they didn't feel cold in the cold winter night.

……

In the early morning of the next day, as soon as my uncle woke up, Xuebai's eldest nephew came to the door.

"Xiao Yin got up so early." Lan Xishan greeted with a smile, "Have you had breakfast yet?"

Zhu Yanyin is well-behaved: "Well, I have used it." Not only have I used it, but I have already walked around in the yard seven or eight times with my hands behind my back, and finally waited until there was any movement in the house. You middle-aged people can really sleep, so don't be afraid Is it too early to get up late?

Lan Xishan took his hand, and looked carefully for a long time, feeling that it was fortunate that he was not hungry and thin, and there was not much haggardness from the bumpy journey on his face, otherwise your mother would not know how distressed she would be.

Zhu Yanyin said: "Uncle Zhang and Xiaosui took good care of me." After finishing speaking, he added in time that Palace Master Li also took good care of me. I am very happy every day when I stay with him, and I am happy every moment. unwilling to separate.

Lan Xishan dotes on his eldest nephew very much, and said generously: "It's easy. After the Wulin League has settled its grievances with the Snow City Demon Sect, uncle will invite all the people from the rivers and lakes you like to Wangcheng, and accompany you every day to eat, drink and play to your heart's content. ,how?"

Second Young Master Zhu: "..."

The elder is so considerate, but he is arrogant and unreasonable to make trouble... But he can't go to Xuecheng without making trouble. Just when he was in a dilemma, Lan Xishan had already ordered his servants to "hangchihangchi" to move out a golden nanmu The big box: "Your cousin asked me to bring it to you. Because there were a lot of files back then and they couldn't be borrowed, he had to find more than ten people to copy them. That's about it."

So Zhu Yanyin didn't care about being unreasonable for the time being, and hurried over to have a look.When he was in the Crane City Library, he had paid special attention to Jincheng's local annals, but those books mostly described field and water conservancy, and there were very few records on mining and metallurgy. Cousin, I want to ask him to find relevant records from several years ago.

Lan Xishan asked: "Did Palace Master Li ask you to find it?"

Zhu Yanyin immediately felt guilty: "What Palace Master Li?"

"You have nothing to do with Jincheng, but among your friends in the world, only Palace Master Li is from Jincheng."

"...Well, it's not that he entrusted me, but I want to find out some things from that year."

Zhu Yanyin sat back at the table: "The Li family was once prominent in the Northwest. They were ordered by the court to mine salt and iron deposits. Later, because of a mining accident, the whole family collapsed."

Lan Xishan guessed what he meant: "Do you suspect that there is something hidden about the mine disaster?"

Zhu Yanyin said: "At that time, the local official in Jincheng was named Pang Hai. Later, he was imprisoned for corruption and bribery, and died of illness not long after. Does uncle have any impression of this person?"

"There are some, but there have been bribery and bribery in all dynasties. He is not shockingly greedy, so I don't have a deep impression."

"The Li Mansion fell due to the mine disaster, but Pang Dahai made a fortune because of the mine disaster. It didn't take long before the mine was completely taken over for official use. Even the writers were feeling emotional, saying that he was resolute in this matter. The level is completely different from the usual laziness and procrastination."

Lan Xishan poured tea: "It is indeed suspicious, but it is far from enough to be used as evidence. Do you have other clues?"

"The book also records that after the government took over the mine, many seafood shops, red cherry wine shops, and fish and shrimp porridge noodle shops opened in Jincheng. These shops that originally belonged to the southeast coast once had a prosperous business. It disappeared with the order of the imperial court to temporarily close the mine."

Then the most reasonable explanation is that these restaurants and noodle restaurants are all related to the mines, either to cater for the tastes of the workers, or they are run by family members brought here by the workers.

Zhu Yanyin continued: "The distance between the southeast and the northwest is very long. Even if Pang Dahai sent people to the coast to recruit immediately after the mine disaster, it would be too late. So I suspect that he had already done the job before the mine disaster. Prepare to take over the mine.”

Of course, there is also a possibility that this group of southeast people happened to appear near Jincheng with their families at that time, and they happened to be caught by Pang Dahai.That's why Zhu Yanyin wanted to find more and more detailed records, so as to find out the truth as soon as possible.

Lan Xishan nodded: "Then your relationship with Palace Master Li seems to be really good."

Not only is it good, what we are going to do in the future, I am afraid it will scare your old man's beard.Zhu Yanyin seized the opportunity and asked sensiblely and innocently: "Then can I accompany him to Xuecheng?"

Lan Xishan refused: "What are you thinking, of course not."

"Uncle—" Zhu Yanyin dragged his tone, "I don't trust him."

"Master Li's kung fu is the best in the world, so why don't you worry about him." Lan Xishan patted his nephew on the head, "You like to watch people wield swords and guns, so I will let Ayan show you sword skills every day. It's the emperor's imperial guards, and this time they're here too, and they're very skillful."

"I don't want to look at Ayan." Zhu Yanyin sat on the chair, "I want to be Palace Master Li."

Lan Xishan was kind and patient: "You want Palace Master Li, but Palace Master Li may not be willing to have you. The Wulin League is for exorcising demons. You are a literati who can only study, why don't you join in the fun."

"Who said that!" Zhu Yan said righteously, "Master Li is willing to have me, he likes me so much."

Lan Xishan didn't hear the nephew's private goods in time: "Then uncle likes you too much. He even fed you and urinated you when you were young. Why can't you be obedient now?"

"..."

Zhu Yanyin: "Anyway, I'm going to Xuecheng. If you and Uncle Zhang don't agree, I'll go to the team of Wanren Palace!"

Lan Xishan: "Then you can try it for two days."

Zhu Yanyin: "?"

So refreshing?

The uncle's calculations are actually very good. He is sure that the pampered nephew will not be able to bear the hardships of the world. The reason why he is noisy and self-willed now is because he has not tasted the hardships of living alone. Once he really wants to do everything by himself, he will definitely It won't take two days to come back crying.

Zhu Yanyin couldn't believe that there was such a heavenly gift package, and asked again: "Really? Don't go back on your word?"

Lan Xishan: "I don't regret it."

"You write it down!"

"...I can still rely on you, brat?"

Regardless, Zhu Yanyin found a pen and paper, forced him to write a letter of guarantee, and then happily ran to find Li Sui.

What is another village!

Thank you uncle!Goodbye uncle!

Lan Xishan looked at his bouncing back and stroked his beard thoughtfully.

Young people who are not deeply involved in the world...
