Lord of Rebirth

Back at the villa, Shen Xi's mood also bumped up and down along with the carriage, and when he was about to approach the villa, Shen Xi had already stretched his neck to look outside.

Although it was a temporary intention to come back this time, the prince has already sent someone to notify the outpost, asking them to send someone to notify the villa.

Shen Xi thought to himself, would there be many farmers standing at the gate of the villa to welcome him?

When the carriage came to the gate of the villa, Shen Xi opened the door curtain and saw that only Zhang Fang was sitting at the gate of the villa, holding a straw and whistling.

"Ah! Master Shen!" Seeing the carriage stop, Zhang Fang immediately greeted him.

There was a hint of disappointment in Shen Xi's heart, and he said calmly, "Why are you alone?"

Zhang Fang smiled, took Shen Xi down, and said, "Master Shen, has it been too long since you left the villa? At this time, everyone is busy in the field, and Brother Nie is also busy, so I am the only one here." I'll pick you up!"

Shen Xi thinks about it too, so he can only give up.

Zhang Mian sent Shen Xi to the house, and went out to help.Two servants came and went to deliver tea and snacks, and then stood at the door to wait for orders.

Shen Xi sat there with tea for a while, the warm breeze outside the house rustled the leaves, and there was an indescribable awkwardness all over his body.

Putting down the teacup, Shen Xi paced towards the mountain behind the villa.

Nanshan and Beishan, after experiencing the flash floods in the early spring of the year, Beishan is still the same, but the terraced fields on Nanshan are completely different from before.

The waterwheel was moved to the top of the mountain, and the terraced fields were repaired higher, and the area was not reduced than before. It was precisely because of this that Shen Xi was able to find the prince with peace of mind later, to deal with the affairs of the four kings of Bashu, and to save the last bit of the villa. The job of repairing the son was handed over to Nie Ji.

Walking into the mountains, the rice fields on both sides are lush and lush, and among the ears of rice swaying in the wind, you can see the figures of farmers who are immersed in farming.

Some saw Shen Xi coming, and those who were close would shout "Hello, Master Shen!"

Those who are far away will stand at a distance and wave to Shen Xi when they hear the sound, no matter whether Shen Xi can see it or not.

The more Shen Xi walked inside, the more restless he felt. He was thinking, he finally came back once, why did everyone pretend that nothing happened and didn't come around to ask him?

Then came to the village in the mountains, because the barrier lake in the mountains broke its embankment before and merged into the middle of the two mountains to form a small stream. Now the stream is still there, and finally the village in the mountains had to be rebuilt at the foot of Nanshan.

Now that there is this small stream, there is no need to dig a hole to dig a well. The women gather around the stream to wash clothes, talking and laughing in a very harmonious atmosphere.

It wasn't until Shen Xi stood beside them that someone discovered Shen Xi.

The young woman greeted Shen Xi with a smile, "Master Shen! I heard that you are coming back today! Is the journey going well?"

Shen Xi nodded with his hands behind his back, "Successful."

Another slightly older woman squinted her eyes and said to Shen Xi with a smile: "Master Shen, you have been an official for a long time, and now you are back, you are always in style!"

"Pie?" Shen Xi glanced at her, somewhat puzzled.

The other young women covered their mouths and laughed together, the woman said: "Here, it's your official style!"

After all, the women laughed.

Shen Xi was completely stunned, when did he become this so-called official style?

Vaguely, he also heard a woman saying: "Our Lord Shen followed the prince this time, and he must have become the official of the boss!"

"That's right, senior official! Still a very powerful senior official!"

Another woman asked Shen Xi, "Master Shen, I heard that you went to war with our prince, ah?"

Shen Xi nodded, "Yes."

Another woman stood up and leaned beside Shen Xi and asked, "Is it because you are going to be promoted this time?"

Shen Xi quickly waved his hands, "No, no."

"Oh!" The woman who said that Shen Xi was handsome also stood up and said, "Didn't you make a great contribution? Didn't the higher authorities give you any rewards?"

Come to think of it, I really haven't considered these things.

A young woman laughed, "There is really a reward, how could Master Shen say that!"

But after hearing what they said, Shen Xi gradually became clear. He hurriedly bowed his hands to them, and said with a smile: "But I really didn't ask for any reward."

The women gathered around and laughed.

Shen Xi also smiled and said, "We've interrupted your laundry, I'll go in and have a look."

The women hurriedly waved, "Master Shen, go slowly!"

"Goodbye."

Shen Xi turned around and continued walking towards the mountain, while the crisp voices of the women behind him gradually faded away.At this moment, he didn't walk with his hands behind his back, nor did he hold his head up. Instead, he was the same as usual, he was still the owner of Shen Zhuang.

For some reason, Shen Xi's mood became different from before.

He didn't know if he chatted with the women for a few words, and he was infected by the hearty aura of living in the mountains on them.

In short, the breath in his heart that had been haunting him all this time was vaguely gone.

Shen Xi was thinking to himself, since when did he become a bureaucratic person in the eyes of others?Does he actually have such an aura?

To Shen Xi, this was obviously something that he hated deeply.

A gust of wind blew, and Shen Xi stopped in place. He looked at the surrounding mountains, the stream beside him, and this gust of breeze.

It was only then that Shen Xi felt that the previous self was too eager for quick success, and only cared about how to perform meritorious deeds and how to receive rewards in front of him. He wished that the whole world knew that it was the prince who made great achievements in the land of Bashu, not the prince.

In this way, even if the prince offends the prince or other princes by doing something in the future, he can use this as an excuse to atone for his crime.

Although the idea is correct, it is a bit too impatient.

Even if the crown prince announces to the world and let everyone in the world know that the prince has done such a feat, is this really for the prince?

Calm down and think about it, not only did he not have much relationship with the prince, but he also offended other princes.It will also make people feel that King Fufeng is climbing up on the shoulders of his own family, why bother with such a great achievement?

Now, the prince is probably thinking about what to say, so that other people can feel that he is not relying on the prince, and the prince is not only for this little achievement.

On the contrary, it was Shen Xi himself, who was so full of thoughts besides merits that they were merits, that he wanted to make a big mark on the credit book, and he didn't care about anything else.

Shen Xi suddenly squatted down by the stream and started playing with pebbles.

He thought, maybe the prince knew what he was thinking, and it was not easy to expose him directly, so he let him come back to the villa.

But I still lost my temper with the prince, and misunderstood that he was driving me away.

Shen Xi sighed towards the stream, why did he become such a person?Think again, but it's still for the prince!

Thinking of this, Shen Xi couldn't help but blush, the prince has now reached such a pivotal position in his heart, a position that cannot be erased at the top of his heart.

For him, even my most basic original intention was almost forgotten.

Even if he figured it out, Shen Xi was not angry with the prince, but he must never tell the prince about this kind of thing, otherwise the little prince would not know what to do to him.

Thinking that the prince would like him so, so much, it became even more difficult for Shen Xi to let the prince know that he liked him so much that he couldn't extricate himself.

Otherwise, the prince will also seem to be competing, and he will only give up if it exceeds his liking.

After thinking about why he was so anxious before, Shen Xi's mood suddenly became better. He stood up and continued walking along the stream.

The continuous terraced fields on the mountains on both sides, coupled with the sound of gurgling water around him, made Shen Xi calm down all of a sudden.

The only thing that changes is yourself.

Shen Xi walked around and returned to the villa, only then did he meet Nie Ji.

Nie Ji gave a big gift and said respectfully: "Master Shen, I'm sorry, I've been busy with the account books before, and I really can't find time to pick you up..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Xi had already stretched out his hand to pat his arm, "Nie Ji, why are you still being polite to me at this moment? Why do you only treat me as the owner of the villa after I've been away for so many days? Don't you think of me as a brother?"

"Don't dare." Nie Ji cupped his hands again, and then smiled, "What does Master Shen need? I'll send someone to prepare it."

"It's nothing." Shen Xi called Nie Ji and Zhang Fang, and said, "I was a bit rushed on the way here, and I haven't eaten for most of the day. You can have dinner with me. Go to the gazebo in the back mountain and get some Two bottles of good wine... Oh, no, you can't drink Nie Ji."

Hearing this, Zhang Fang laughed loudly and patted Nie Ji on the back, "Yes, brother Nie can't drink too much. Then I'll drink with Master Shen."

Shen Xi also laughed, "That's it."

There is no need for him to do anything, Nie Ji is a very good housekeeper, as long as Shen Xi goes to the pavilion in the back mountain, he will see that servants have come to serve dishes, and there are two altars of green bamboo leaves.

Soon Nie Ji and Zhang Fang also changed their clothes, all of which were clothes they seldom wear.

Shen Xi took the seat first, and the two of them dared to sit down.But Shen Xi got up again to pour wine for the two of them, but they both stood up in shock, and Nie Ji also said: "How dare you bother the owner, I will come."

Shen Xi took the wine bottle and said seriously: "Don't snatch it from me, you have done so much, I haven't thanked you well yet."

Nie Ji supported the wine glass, but said: "Master Shen, we didn't do this just to ask for a thank you."

Shen Xi was taken aback, and couldn't help laughing, "What you said is true, but let me thank you all, no matter what else, today, apart from Nie Ji and you, Zhang Fang, let's not go home drunk."

Nie Ji couldn't help but sneered when he heard this, "Yes, let the young one take care of pouring the wine."

Zhang Fang raised his wine glass and took a sip, then asked, "Master Shen, how long will you stay in the villa this time?"

Shen Xi thought for a while, "Two or three days."

(——We will come three shifts on weekdays~——)
