Lord of Rebirth

Chapter 2 Invitation

When Shen Xi woke up, the sun was already slanting in the west outside the window, and the entire Fenglu Villa was tanned golden. Shen Xi yawned, got up, rinsed his mouth and washed his face.

Today's villa is much quieter than before, Shen Xi remembered that everyone went to see the prince enter the city.

Shen Xi sat bored on the stone steps at the entrance of the villa.

Beside the villa are green paddy fields, the terraced fields on the mountain behind the villa, and the small village in front of the villa are all owned by him, Shen Xi.

Looking along the path in the middle of the rice field, several farmers were walking around talking and laughing.

When they approached, Shen Xi leaned over.

When the farmers saw that it was Shen Xi, they all said, "Master Shen, you didn't go to see it today, the prince is so imposing."

Shen Xi asked jokingly: "Is the prince handsome?"

When asked such a question, the female farmer next to him blushed and nodded shyly. No one said Jun directly, but looking at this, Shen Xi also knew what was going on, and the male farmer beside him were naturally very big. The smell of vinegar made her face quite unhappy.

A child came up to him and said excitedly to Shen Xi, "Master! Master! I also learned a new word... called... called... qiyuxuanang! qiyuxuanang!"

The people around laughed, and Shen Xi laughed too. It was obvious that he learned this word while watching the prince.

After several waves of Zhuang Nong came back, none of them were unhappy, as if they saw the Jade Emperor.

Even Nie Ji, the housekeeper who has always been restrained, was full of excitement when he mentioned the ostentation he saw today.

But Nie Ji said again: "Master Shen, you came from the capital, and you haven't seen any big scenes. We are small people in the countryside, and this kind of knowledge is a bit lacking."

"It's not like that..." Shen Xi just smiled.

Nie Ji, on the other hand, felt that as long as the capital city was mentioned, their Lord Shen would not be very happy, so he gave up.

Shen Xi thought to himself, he has indeed seen all kinds of big scenes, and even met the emperor, but so what?

It's better to be a farmer here. I would rather count the money until my hands feel sore, and don't write memorials until my hands become sore.

Originally, Shen Xi thought that the prince would come when he came, and everything remained as usual.

After all, like the princes of many fiefdoms, they are the masters who don't care about things. The sky is high and the emperor is far away. Most of them only eat, drink and have fun in the fiefdom.

Who knew that they, Fufeng King, had just arrived two days ago and would call all the owners of money houses, farms, silk and satin shops, etc., to go to the prince's mansion to re-sign official documents, and the documents signed with Zhizhou before had expired. Obsolete this year.

I heard that the conditions are better than before, and the tax is less.

Around the sixteenth of this month, all the bosses rushed to Fengxiang Mansion with great interest, only one did not go.

"I'm not going." Shen Xi said to the butler Nie Ji, "You run this trip for me and take care of things."

In the past, half of the dealings with the government were done by Nie Ji, but this time it was different. What the lord asked was for the owners of these villas to come in person. If they only went to a housekeeper in Fenglu Villa, wouldn't they look down on the lord?

Moreover, the prince has just arrived, and he is still the prince after all. The first impression is the most important. The bosses are too busy trying to curry favor, but their owner, Shen Xi, is lucky, just two words, not going.
