For a noble girl from an aristocratic family, even if she travels without the protection of her elders, she still has her brothers, at least a few old ladies and a few young maids accompanying her.
There are only a few people like this around, and one of them is so handsome and graceful. The movements between the two are intimate, and they are just like the girl in the drama eloping with the escort.
Ben is a concubine, no more noble than a lowly person like him.
He has been the head of this manor for almost twenty years. The manor has changed hands several times and has had four masters. According to the news from his nephew at the county government, he said that it was bought by a southern businessman named Xie. .
In the six years since the purchase, the master's family has not been here once. Later, he found out from many sources that the master did not have a son, but only a beloved daughter who regarded it as a treasure. He then deliberately began to withhold money. For a year, the host family didn't find out. It was just like this when he came to the merchant's house. It was very easy to fool him.
If Xie Miaoxuan knew what he was thinking, she might even praise him for being smart. According to the rules of this world, she left her family's protection and followed her child adoptive husband. If she said it wasn't an elopement, no one would believe it.
Unfortunately, this cleverness was used in the wrong place.
Xie Yuanju helped her sit down on a stool in the main room, "Girl, take a rest first."
Both of them saw that the room was indeed dusty, but there were obvious marks left by moving things in a few places that they had not had time to clean up.
Looking at each other, they both saw suspicion in each other's eyes.
She rolled her eyes and said, "It seems that a lot of things were piled up in this room before. The traces look like they were left by the dragging of sacks. There are still corns in the corners that have not been cleaned up. They were used for storing grain."
A village head used the owner's yard as a warehouse, and there was so much food that he had to put it in the owner's house...
"I should have come here to alert him and give him time to move the food."
"Don't panic, one bite won't make you fat. It takes time to solve the problems one by one."
Xie Yuanju felt mixed emotions when he saw the tiredness that could not be concealed on her small face and the worries about these things. In fact, he had watched her grow up, from the age of eleven to fifteen, a full four years. , she was really brought up by a rich family. She has never suffered any hardships since she was a child. Now she is suffering from drastic changes in her family and the pain of her skin and flesh is actually supported by her resilience. If the head of the family is still there, how can she consider these things? .
After cleaning the house, he told Xie Miaoxuan to get some medicine and come back later, and ordered people to stay outside.
Xie Miaoxuan was lying on the bed. Although he was in a panic, he wiped the corners very clean and closed his eyes to rest for a while.
Today, there was a battle of wits and courage, and running back and forth for dozens of miles, which was really too much for her.
Her body is too weak, and this is not possible. She is trying to survive in this world. In another year, troubled times will appear, including famine, plague, and cannibal wars. Damn it. You can't live long with a body like this.
In the original body's only memory of the next year, in addition to love and love, there is also an important message.
The emperor will suddenly die suddenly soon, and the young emperor, supported by Taiwei He Dai, will ascend the throne and control the government. However, the already powerful Jiedu envoy refused to accept the Taiwei's use of the emperor to order the princes. He took the opportunity to open the border and let the Xiongnu enter to cause chaos.
The Taiwei has a forbidden army of 200,000, the Jiedushi has been guarding the border for many years and has 400,000 soldiers, and King Shaoyou has a private army of 500,000 through so many years of keeping a low profile.
None of the three forces was willing to waste their troops to exterminate the Xiongnu, causing them to cause chaos everywhere in the hinterland of the Central Plains. It was like entering an uninhabited land, harvesting one city after another, and the corpses of the people littered the fields.
The imperial family did not care about the life and death of the people, and God refused to give the people a way to live. Severe droughts began in Jizhou and Yongzhou, and disasters such as water, insects, and hail broke out. The land was bare for thousands of miles, and locusts filled the fields.
The number of victims reached more than 10 million.
Xie Miaoxuan turned over, and she felt a little emotional for a moment that her original body died in a good time, at least she did not see the horrific scene of bones scattered around, and people changing their bodies to eat.
In the chaos, Xie Yuanju got back the medicine. She got up, applied it and washed it, then fell on the bed and fell asleep.
She was woken up by the chirping of birds outside the window in the morning.
When she finished washing herself and sat at the table, she found Da Niu standing arrogantly and sulking.
Looking back at the table, I immediately realized that there was only a bottomed bowl of gruel and a few plates of farm-pickled sauerkraut on the table.
"Go and call Mr. Cao Zhuang."
Daniel received the order, responded loudly, and ran to find someone. From his cheerful steps, it was easy to see his impatient mood, and he couldn't help but laugh and shake his head.
Without taking a sip of the porridge, she walked into the courtyard and happened to see Xie Yuanju practicing his spear. His movements were wide open and closed, stirring the air with sharp explosions.
He has a long body, wide shoulders and narrow waist. The sweat on his bare forearms is wet with sweat, and veins bulge on the back of the hand holding the spear.
Xie Miaoxuan's eyes lit up, and he saw him twist his long legs, turn over several kites, and move as smoothly as clouds and flowing water, and the final movement was very neat, so he couldn't help but applaud.
He is really a handsome man with a jade face, and he is as skillful as a rabbit taking off his clothes.
"I've seen the girl."
"Can I learn this move of yours?"
Xie Yuanju was stunned and slowly shook his head and said, "I am born with greater strength than ordinary people, and I follow a domineering path. The girl is weak and has little strength, so I'm afraid I won't be able to learn it."
Hearing this, Xie Miaoxuan couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. What a good master he had in front of him, what a pity, what a pity.
Seeing the regret on her face, Xie Yuanju thought for a while and said, "But the girl can learn some superficial internal mental techniques. This can teach the girl a healthy body. If she can practice it every day, it will be beneficial to her life span."
"Forget it." Xie Miaoxuan waved his hand in disinterest, saying that what he was doing after learning the basic inner skills was just some showmanship.
What I want to learn is the killing knife.
A knife that can kill can also save others and yourself.
"You will live here for a while in the future, but the place is self-sufficient and the news is not available. In the next few days, I want you to go to Kyoto to find out about the Xie family and the Xie family. By the way, I want you to see what the people in Kyoto are talking about after dinner. Let’s also ask about anything, especially those that people talk about.”
This was a decision she made after thinking about it last night, to keep an eye on the situation in Kyoto.
The most suitable person to do this is Xie Yuanju. Although he talks little, he is thoughtful and meticulous in his work.
He also looks like a noble young man from an aristocratic family. Nowadays, to be an official, one has to choose his appearance. Even the aunts on the street will shun the ugly face, while the beautiful aunts will give them hairpins. He holds it in his arms. Such an extremely pure face must be very good at work.
