Hand over the jade seal first [Infrastructure]

The whole of Southern Yanzhou didn't have a good time last year. The state capital is logically stronger than other places, but the surrounding area has been hit by disasters, and they are not much better, not to mention the refugees who came over brought The epidemic caused many deaths and injuries in the state capital.

I haven't calmed down yet, which has caused everyone in this Zhengdan to have a bad life.

If you can't come out on vacation, the state capital will be even less popular. It looks lifeless. Who likes to stay in this kind of place?

Xiao Xuexing also didn't want to force the people to go out and smile for the sake of face, so he might as well go back to Taoyuan City as soon as possible.

Probably the vitality of Taoyuan City infected him. When he went to Taoyuan City, he didn't think there was anything wrong with the state capital, but after returning from there, he couldn't bear the atmosphere here.

Although Taoyuan City is small, it is much more beautiful and fun. Even if you don't do anything, sitting on the attic and watching people come and go is very interesting.

The new governor of Southern Yanzhou is also under a lot of pressure. He is not a particularly powerful person, but he is more pragmatic. Xiao Xuexing sees him as pleasing to the eye and does not have the heart to embarrass him. In addition, the state government has to pay for the meeting. After a long time, the state The government's financial pressure will be relatively large.

As for going to Taoyuan City... Anyway, he can subsidize his brother, so he is not afraid of anything.

Xiao Xuan is also very interested in Xiao Zirong's Taoyuan City, because Xiao Xuexing has praised it a lot, and he still knows Xiao Xuexing's habits very well, it is not really good, even if it is the city built by Xiao Zirong, he It will also be described fairly.

Nanyanzhou is not interesting, why not go to my nephew's place, if not, then go to Xiao Xuexing's palace, anyway, he can't bear to be wronged no matter where he goes.

Xiao Zirong thought about it for a while, so she didn't say anything, and after packing up, she rode a horse and followed Yu Jia, chatting and laughing with Xiao Xuan and Xiao Ji occasionally.

But soon he regretted it, and his brother actually followed him on horseback.

Xiao Zirong persuaded, "Go back to the carriage and rest."

It's so cold outside, what if his brother gets sick from the cold?

Xiao Xuexing scanned around and said: "Those people are eager to try and get close to you, are you sure you want me to go?"

Xiao Xuexing could calm down those people by following Xiao Zirong, but once he left, Xiao Zirong was left alone, and those people would definitely surround him.

Xiao Zirong also flinched a bit, but after thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and said, "Go back, I can."

Isn't it just coping? As long as you keep smiling, he will nod whatever the other party says, and he won't do anything the other party asks him to do. It's not difficult for him to throw it back if the other party dares to make things difficult for him... right?

Xiao Xuexing chuckled lightly: "Have you learned to be brave?"

Xiao Zirong tried his best to relax himself while laughing, "It's not that I'm trying to be brave, but I'm really not afraid. Can they still eat me?"

Xiao Xuexing said coldly: "It's more terrifying than eating you."

Xiao Zirong's heart skipped a beat, and when he raised his eyes, he happened to see a gentleman who was following Xiao Yan's car. That gentleman should be Xiao Yan's junior, and there was a slight resemblance between his eyebrows.

After meeting Xiao Zirong's eyes, the other party hurriedly looked away.

Xiao Zirong's heart sank, knowing that his brother didn't lie to him, the other party might already be thinking about how to torment him.

Otherwise, why is the other party guilty?

However, at this time, that person was actually trying to keep his body straight and his riding posture more standard, thinking in his heart: he must leave a good impression on King Xuancheng.

As for what to do after leaving a good impression, he probably hasn't figured it out yet, and it would be best to be able to say a few words.

He is the eldest grandson of Xiao Yan, and his background is already very good. Even the emperor has met him several times, and he was not so nervous when he met.

But now he is actually a little worried that he will have a bad impression on King Xuancheng, not because of his status as King Xuancheng, but mainly because the other party is really good-looking.

He has never seen such a good-looking young man, oh, the regent is also very good-looking, but who dares to stare at the face of the regent.

Moreover, King Xuancheng looks much gentler than the Regent, and he also loves to laugh. His smile is sweet but not effeminate. He is the little friend he really wants to make friends with.

So we must not leave a bad impression on King Xuancheng. He came out to ride a horse today because he heard that King Xuancheng was going to follow him on horseback, so he was impulsive and wanted to see if he could say a few words.

In the end, I never expected that the evil god of the regent was there. As long as there is a place where the regent is, I wish that no one would dare to approach him for ten miles.

Sitting in the car, Xiao Yan saw his grandson's serious expression and standard posture, and thought about why, but he didn't stop him.

Up to now, he doesn't think that Xiao Zirong was responsible for entrapping Zhongshusheren. He only thinks that Xiao Xuexing used Xiao Zirong as an excuse. Maybe Xiao Xuexing really fed the other party poison at that time.

In the years of fighting, Xiao Yan, who has always been at a disadvantage, is about to demonize the news, and he is not at all hesitant to use the worst idea to speculate on the other party.

Now that Xiao Zirong and Xiao Xuexing were very close, he decided that Xiao Xuexing must have used some means to deceive King Xuancheng. He had to expose the other party's hypocritical mask so that King Xuancheng could recognize the other party's true face.

It's just that I don't know if Xiao Xuexing said anything to King Xuancheng, if he was mentioned, he would definitely not say anything good.

Now he hastily approached King Xuancheng because he was afraid that the other party would guard against him, but it would be better to let his grandson go to establish a good relationship with King Xuancheng first.

His grandson himself knew that he was a kind and good boy. In the past, he was always worried that his grandson would be framed by others because of his kindness, but now he felt that such a temper might suit King Xuancheng's appetite.

Anyway, the emperor was in the prime of his life, and looked very healthy, so don't worry, let the grandson figure out a way, if he made a move, the king of Xuancheng couldn't see Xiao Xuexing, and he would see it.

There are quite a few people who think like Xiao Yan. Many people are not worried that the regent will not speak well of them. Many of them are relatively neutral and will not help anyone. Xiao Xuexing has never hit them because of this, but they are young. They are not young anymore, and they have no common language with King Xuancheng. It is meaningless to force them to talk, and it may end up with a flattering reputation, so it is better to let the children go.

Xiao Zirong didn't know that everyone actually wanted to befriend him. When the court was stable, there were not so many people who wanted to rebel. There were people who were born rebellious, but not many.

Whether it was Xiao Zhaoye before or Xiao Baojuan later, they made everyone suffer unspeakably, and everyone was in danger, so why not?

Of course, we still need to observe whether Xiao Zirong is such a person. The probability of the Xiao family producing a tyrant is too high. It is also a headache to be able to produce two foolish monarchs in a short period of time even though they are not from the same branch.

Xiao Xuexing also knew that many people were looking at Xiao Zirong, but those eyes were not malicious, so he didn't care, and wanted his brother to get familiar with such an environment.

But seeing that although Xiao Zirong tried his best to appear calm and composed, his body was actually tense and tense, Xiao Xuexing rarely thought that this little wolf cub was going to explode, right?

He just wanted to comfort Xiao Zirong when he heard Xiao Zirong say: "It's okay, I can, you go back."

Xiao Xuexing turned his head to look at Xiao Zirong in surprise, and then saw that the other person had a determined face, although he was still a little apprehensive, but there was no look of fear.

Xiao Xuexing hesitated for a moment and said, "You..."

Xiao Zirong said to him seriously again: "I know you can't protect me forever."

Xiao Xuexing subconsciously wanted to refute: "How could it be?"

But after the rebuttal, he was silent. He thought so before, but at that time it was because of his poor health. Now his health is gradually improving. Although he is not completely healthy, he should be able to live for a few more years .

But for the rest of his life...he dared not promise.

Xiao Zirong suddenly smiled: "You said that, since that's the case, you should take care of your health and protect me at critical moments."

Xiao Xuexing frowned, and subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to rub Xiao Zirong's head, but after he raised his hand, he realized that there were many people around him, and his younger brother had grown up, so he patted Xiao Zirong's head. Shoulder said: "If you don't like it, go to His Majesty."

Xiao Zirong nodded vigorously, but had no such intention.

After Xiao Xue walked, he really saw some people gradually approaching him. After careful observation, he found that most of them were nephews of some officials. The oldest one was probably about the same age as Xiao Xuexing.

Only then did Xiao Zirong relax a bit, peers are always better at communicating with each other.

He said "I can" three times to himself, and struck up a conversation with the people who moved closer.

Most people came here today to show their goodwill, and they might have the idea of ​​weighing Xiao Zirong, but generally speaking, no one wanted to embarrass him.

At most, there are some people who think that Xiao Zirong's experience is not very good, and feel a little contemptuous in their hearts, but they don't say it directly, but these people are not rich, and they will show it occasionally.

Xiao Xuexing has been paying attention to Xiao Zirong's situation all the time. He is as careful as dust, so he can naturally see that he is a little unhappy for a moment. The little man he is holding in his hand is looked down upon by these dudes?

However, Xiao Zirong didn't seem to notice it. After the other party said something he didn't know, he would widen his eyes and say, "Really? You are so amazing."

These young gentlemen play like children of similar status on weekdays. They know the same things, don't read many books, and are proficient in everything.

They can only play with each other, but they feel a sense of accomplishment in front of Xiao Zirong, and being looked at with admiration by King Xuancheng's round eyes, and then complimenting each other, don't mention how beautiful they are.

Xiao Xuexing hesitated for a while and didn't interrupt them, and planned to wait until the night when they settled down.

As a result, before nightfall, those young gentlemen started fighting.
