The Concubine of Crossing

Hearing Li Xiao's call, Zhaocai hurriedly handed the work to the companion next to him, and then quickly followed.

When Li Xiao opened the door and walked into his lounge, Zhao Cai had followed him, standing in front of him politely, with a very respectful look.

Li Xiao looked at him, Zhaocai was really the kind of ordinary-looking person, thin and capable, and he looked like a neat person at first glance. Among ordinary people, such people are really too common. A type that is almost impossible to find in the crowd.

Such an inconspicuous person has great abilities that he doesn't know about.

Li Xiao finished looking at it, and suddenly smiled, "Your Excellency condescends to my little shop, I don't know what you want to do? If you like my little shop, just say, you are such a large group of people, I am a little afraid of ordinary people." ..."

Before he could finish his words, Zhao Cai had already knelt down with a plop, his face full of fear and fear, "Don't worry, my lord, the subordinates are here to protect you, and they definitely won't covet your property."

Li Xiao looked at the respectful kneeling person in front of him, and stood up uncomfortably, avoiding his big gift, "Don't, we can't afford you strange people..."

He suddenly stopped in the middle of the sentence, because he remembered that since he was betrayed in his previous life, Noble didn't trust his subordinates very much.

Therefore, the servants used in this life, either like Xiaodouzi and the third son, followed them in the previous life, or they all held the deed of sale in their hands.

In other words, in the entire Xiaolai Restaurant, except for Chef Du, everyone else's deeds of prostitution are in their hands.

Li Xiao turned his head and looked at Zhao Cai who was kneeling in front of him with a complicated expression. He couldn't figure it out. How could such skilled people do such a thing as signing a contract of sale?

Could it be that the deed of sale is a fake?

Thinking of Xiaodouzi's level of handling, it should be impossible.

So, what is going on in these people's minds?After a long time, Li Xiao asked, "Who are you guys?"

Zhaocai knelt on the ground respectfully, "Return to my son, I think it's better for Miss Xiangniang to tell you about this matter."

Xiangniang... even she was involved in it.Thinking of what Luo Laibao said, Xiangniang has been by their side unswervingly, resisting many dangers brought by the outside world for them.

Such a person who even Luo Laibao is completely at ease has a story that they don't know.

Li Xiao is starting to wonder now, is it true what Xiangniang said about Zhou's kindness to them?Having said that, it seems that such words have never been mentioned in Xiangniang's mouth in this life.

Thinking about it carefully, if Mrs. Zhou was really kind to her, why would she not stay with Mr. Zhou, who is not young, but follow them to the capital by every means?

Li Xiao stared at Zhaocai with a complicated expression for a long time, and said lightly, "Then please invite Miss Xiangniang here."

Zhao Cai answered yes, then stood up, exited the door respectfully, and then quickly entered the Baihua Pavilion next to it.

Hua Niang was surprised when she saw him, "What's wrong with Zhao Cai, what are you doing so fast?"

Zhaocai's footsteps couldn't help but stop, and said to Hua Niang, "Go back to Hua Niang, the young master said he wants to see Xiang Niang."

Hua Niang's eyes flickered slightly, and she sat up straighter in her nonchalant body. She waved her hand at Zhao Cai, "Since it is the order of the young master, then you should hurry up."

Zhaocai nodded slightly at her, and then continued to rush into the room quickly.

Xiang Niang was grinding the face powder, when she heard the news of the fortune, she paused slightly, then took her time to finish the work in hand, then put the lid on, and then cleaned her hands in the basin.

Xiangniang's movements were always slow and graceful, as if she was doing a fingertip dance.When dealing with spices, she always appears very religious.Until she dried her hands with a towel, walked in front of Zhaocai, raised her hand, swiped her white and delicate fingers, and slapped Zhaocai's face hard.

Her slap was so powerful that Zhao Cai was slapped and fell to the ground. Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth immediately, and he didn't know where he hit it.

That dark face quickly swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye, showing a clear slap print, which is enough to see how hard Xiangniang slapped.

Zhaocai didn't dare to say anything, didn't even dare to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and consciously moved his crooked body back, and continued to kneel respectfully.

But Xiangniang didn't look at him again, she stomped past him, her sleeves fluttered, and she walked far away in the blink of an eye.

Zhao Cai lowered his eyes and looked at the ground without dissatisfaction or resentment, only calm and firm.

When this day really came, Xiangniang actually calmed down, all the entangled thoughts were put aside, and there was a kind of indifference after the dust had settled.

She walked into Xiaolai Restaurant, and nodded to the guests who greeted her with a soft face, then went upstairs, walked to the door of Li Xiao's room, and knocked on the door, "Master."

"Come in." Li Xiao's voice came from inside the door. He couldn't hear any joy or anger, but it sounded very pleasant, just like him. At first glance, it was the kind of beauty that made people willing to kneel down and surrender.

Xiangniang lowered her eyes, pushed the door, closed it, then paced in front of Li Xiao, knelt down, with her head lowered, it was a posture of absolute submission.

Li Xiao took a deep breath, "Noble trusts you very much."

"As long as the young master cherishes him for a day, I will protect him for a day with my life." Xiangniang's voice came, clear and light, just like her person, but the words casually put life and death outside her body. Her tone of voice made it possible to clearly feel her determination.

Li Xiao looked at her, "You guys, who are you?" Li Xiao hesitated a little, and he felt that after asking these words, the peaceful life they tried so hard for would be gone. They are getting farther and farther away.

So it's not that he can't notice what's wrong with the people around him, but that he doesn't want to pierce the window paper.

It's a pity that someone was unwilling to follow his will and forced him to puncture the layer of paper that was about to break.

Some things can no longer be pretended to be ignored.

"Da Yanchao, Ye Clan, Ye Xiangniang." Xiangniang said respectfully.

Dayan Dynasty?Even the country is different.

Li Xiao was speechless for a long time. Although he knew that things would be troublesome, he never thought it would be so troublesome.

In other words, where is Dayan Dynasty?

Li Xiao thought about it for a while, except that he knew that a Di country was in the south, he really didn't know what countries were around.

The transportation in this world is too backward, and it is extremely difficult to go out once. Except for businessmen and bureaucrats, many people will never leave the place where they stay for the rest of their lives. There are really very few people like them who travel to several places in a year.

Li Xiao never thought of leaving Gu country, even when he heard Luo Laibao say that Gu country would be in chaos in the future, in the worst case, he thought about the same thing as Luo Laibao, find a deep mountain forest to stay for a while, Or live a lifetime.

Dayan Kingdom is too far away for him, it is a country that he has never even heard of.

Li Xiao didn't want to listen anymore, he waved his hand, "Okay, Miss Xiangniang, you go down. I don't care what your purpose is, there is only one thing, don't hurt the people around me!"

When Li Xiao said this, his eyes were cold. The identities of these people were more troublesome than he imagined.

He knew from Luo Laibao's memory that in the last life, except for those children, there were only Sanzi, Xiaodouzi and Xiangniang in front of them.

People like Hua Niang and Zhao Caidun have never appeared before, otherwise Luo Laibao would not have no impression of them.

The biggest difference between them and their previous life is that they stayed in Pucheng and never came to Kyoto in their previous life.

In other words, these people did not go to Pucheng, but stayed in this capital all the time.

A group of people from other countries stayed in the capital of another country. No matter how you looked at it, it seemed weird.

Li Xiao really didn't want to get involved, and originally thought that they had no hostility towards him, so he could try to communicate, but now it seems that this is a hornet's nest that cannot be touched at all, and he can kill himself if he is not careful.

Sorry, he is a common man with a family and a house, and he really doesn't want to participate in these things.

Li Xiao's words stunned Xiangniang, she thought that Li Xiao came to her for a showdown, but she stopped talking halfway through.Xiangniang finally raised her head, looked at Li Xiao, and stopped talking.

Li Xiao said with a straight face, "Please close the door when you go out, thank you." This is already a merciless way of seeing off guests.

Xiang Niang: "..."

Xiangniang stood up silently, and walked to the door silently, but before leaving, she said softly, "My lord, don't meet the national teacher face to face...Your lord and master look too much alike."

Li Xiao didn't say anything, he understood how these people came to him, and it turned out that this face was the fault.

In fact, he wanted to say that people have similarities, the world is so big, isn't it normal to find two people who look the same?

However, he didn't dare to open his mouth. If this person really said that he was ugly and matched this body, he really wouldn't be able to tell.

After all, he doesn't have the memory of the original owner. If someone saw some birthmark and scar and used it as an excuse to fool him, wouldn't he be foolish enough to take the blame?

So Li Xiao didn't say a word, pretending he didn't hear anything.Anyway, he made up his mind to firmly deny whether the son in these populations was the original owner or not.

Seeing Li Xiao's determined face, Xiangniang finally sighed, walked out of the room, and closed the door by the way.

After the people left, Li Xiao wiped the sweat off his brow. Emma also said that these people had no ill intentions towards him, so they were definitely going to push him into the pit of fire!

Wait, what did Xiangniang say just now, don't meet the national teacher face to face?Why did you get involved with the national teacher again?

Naturally, Li Xiao didn't have a good impression of those cheating national teachers. The so-called elixir of immortality was something to fool people. This kind of monster that said it could refine elixir of longevity was definitely not a good thing!

And hearing Xiangniang's tone, could it be that there is still hatred?

Thinking of the status of the national teacher in Gu Guo, Li Xiao suddenly felt that one was the first and the other was the big one. Who is he provoking?

Obviously, from Noble's tone, he is just a helpless and pitiful little boy, why did things become so complicated?

Scratching his hair irritably, Li Xiao felt that the matter was beyond what he could handle with his fists, so he should go back and discuss it with his big baby!
