The mountains and fields are full of water, the rice seedlings are sprouting from the needles, and the setting sun listens to the partridges all the way.
The woods where the Xuanhuai Zhao Mansion is located are extremely quiet and have excellent scenery. Living here, with the red rain and the slanting light from the sparse fences, it is difficult for people to have any desire to dominate the world or enjoy grudges.
Quiet and tranquil, without fighting against the world.
Perhaps, this is the real reason why old Zhao Yao insists on settling here.
...
By the way, Lao Zhao Xia's sword was stolen by Chai Ling, and his face was naturally dull. Without even a decent greeting, he jumped towards the door of the mansion, ready to welcome the four people into the mansion.
Liu Yi moved his lips but said nothing. Qiao Miaoqing and Li Erniu snorted at the same time, looking at the narrow-minded housekeeper Zhao with contempt.
As a party involved, Chai Ling was also very dissatisfied with Lao Zhao Xia's unreasonable behavior. He saw Lao Zhao Xia's body movements, looked at his direction, knew his intention, and jumped away with Lao Zhao Xia.
Since Lao Zhao Xia consumed a lot of energy in the early battles, and Chai Ling was young and strong, he had reservations, so Chai Ling's movement skills were faster. When Lao Zhao Xia jumped to the gate of the house, he saw Chai Ling standing beside him. In front of him, holding the long sword with both hands, with a gentle face and a smile, he really handed over the wicker stick as a sword.
Old Zhao Xia is so disgusting!
His face turned red and white, and he felt ashamed. He thought that it must be his old age and weak strength that caused him to lose to this young man. No shame, no shame!
Even if he didn’t know it, what Chai Ling was laughing at was not Old Zhao Xia’s martial arts, but Old Zhao Xia’s character!
Old Zhao Xia didn't notice this. He let out a slight sigh, puffed up his wrinkled cheeks, took the return sword, turned around and left without even saying a word of invitation.
Qiao Miaoqing was furious. She pursed her red lips and was about to explode, but Liu Yi stopped her.
Xiaojiao Niang had been with Liu Yi for several years, and she naturally knew that Liu Yi would fart when he opened his mouth. Her hands were like small crab tongs, and she pinched Liu Yi's waist. She raised her eyebrows, widened her eyes, and said angrily. He said to Liu Yi, "Xiao Yinglong, don't talk to me about the principles of propriety, justice and shame! I'm not a member of the temple, and I'm not as coy and reserved as Xiaojiabiyu. Sir, I'm in the world, and I drink like water. I live my life happily and graciously. That's what I'm after. If Zhao Xia makes me unhappy, I'll beat him up. This is my principle!"
Seeing the angry look on the little girl's face, Liu Yi suddenly burst out laughing. He looked at Qiao Miaoqing dotingly, touched her somewhat scattered temples, and said with tenderness, "Okay! Let's do it today. Go after him and beat his motherfucker!"
After saying that, Liu Yi rolled up his sleeves and pretended to go up and teach Lao Zhao Xia a lesson.
Seeing Liu Yi's serious look, Qiao Miaoqing grinned and actually laughed. Her exquisite red and phoenix eyes were shining brightly as she looked straight at Liu Yi, which was self-evident.
Then, she quickly stepped forward and grabbed Liu Yi, straightened her breasts, put her hands behind her back, and pretended to be unhappy, "That's it! I don't remember the faults of villains, so I will let him go this time. Ask him to set up ten tables and eight tables for me in your Wangnan Building some other time, as an apology."
Liu Yi immediately rubbed his hands in a philistine manner, put on a flattering smile, and said, "Okay!"
This interlude between the two made the atmosphere in front of the Zhao Mansion suddenly lively. Chai Ling also took the initiative to stand behind Liu Yi. Liu Yi slapped his thigh and said, "Let's go!"
Arriving at the Zhao Mansion courtyard, Liu Yi and his four men immediately caught everyone's attention. Many of the Zhao family soldiers in the courtyard had participated in the Battle of Fuling Mountain two years ago. Naturally, they had seen Liu Yi's brilliant tactics. They recognized them. Liu Yi's eyes were as bright as torches in the night sky, with eyes of admiration.
Liu Yi took it lightly. He nodded lightly to the Zhao family soldiers standing in the courtyard, made a stop gesture to Qiao Miaoqing and the other three, then walked through the crowd alone, and sat down with Zhao Su in a calm manner. In front of Jian, he smiled and said, "Master Zhao, if I want to see you, it's difficult to reach the ninth heaven!"
Zhao Sujian pointed to the small side door, squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "It's not difficult, it's not difficult. We're on the right path, it's not difficult at all. They say Shuijing has a bright eye. It seems that Uncle Ling Yuan was... The floating clouds have covered my eyes for too long, and I have lost my judgment.
It’s broken! "
The implication of Zhao Sujian's words is obvious: I, Zhao Sujian, left a small door for you, but you, Liu Yi, didn't notice it.
Liu Yi couldn't stop, and immediately retorted, "Hahaha! I, Liu Yi, walk and sit upright. I always only walk the bright road and have no habit of walking through the small door."
Before Zhao Sujian could speak, Liu Yi immediately shouted, "It's you, Zhao Sujian, and your Xuanhuai Zhao family. Where is your future?"
Zhao Sujian said softly, "Uncle Ling Yuan, you are so eloquent!"
When Liu Yi arrived, he opened his arms, danced with his long sleeves, raised his hands and said loudly, "I accept it!"
Zhao Sujian shook his head slightly and waved one hand to disperse the Zhao family soldiers who were watching. The Zhao family soldiers moved very quickly and disappeared within ten breaths. Only Zhao Sujian and Liu Yi were left in the school grounds.
The entire Zhao Mansion vestibule immediately became quiet.
Liu Yi leaned across from Zhao Sujian comfortably and said lazily, "This is the atmosphere for discussing things!"
Zhao Sujian smiled knowingly and took the tea can beside him. After opening it, the scent of vegetation spread like air.
The handsome young man from the Zhao family poured the tea into the pot, and then poured in hot water. Like the quiet atmosphere at this time, the scalding hot water quietly poured down the edge of the pot. After washing the tea, Zhao Sujian poured a full pot of water. The tea leaves began to churn from top to bottom, and the fragrance overflowed.
This hand was deliberately shown to Liu Yi by Zhao Sujian. When Liu Yi saw Zhao Sujian's tea-making skills, he sincerely praised him, "The son of the Zhao family has just grown up, and after two years behind closed doors, he turned into a hidden dragon!" "
This time, Zhao Sujian immediately raised his hand and said loudly, "I accept it!"
The two of them had two seats, one case and one pot of tea, ready to talk.
Zhao Sujian had already seen some of Liu Yi's character and thoughts from the expressions on their faces just now. At this moment, Zhao Sujian took the lead. His teeth were like swords, and he was extremely cold. He said straight to the point, "If Uncle Lingyuan wants to come, There's no need to test my mood. The Zhao family's relationship with General Yihe was ended in the battle of Fuling Mountain! If Uncle Ling Yuan wants to come and beat me up, there's no need."
Liu Yi was speechless and couldn't answer for a while. He still underestimated Zhao Sujian's intelligence.
Zhao Sujian put the hot tea bowl in his hand, but his expression was as cold as ice, "After my father died, the Zhao family paid for food and land, and their reputation was upright. Their accumulation of popularity was far beyond that of those families whose hearts are bound to be different. We, the Zhao family, are also determined not to hear anything about the temple, so if the general wants to attack, there is no need to waste any more words."
Liu Yi was amazed at the effectiveness of the harp insect, and was also amazed at Zhao Sujian's intelligence, whose eloquence was not comparable to that of Xia Yi. His intelligence is even better than that of Fang Yi. With this person around, Xuanhuai County may add variables to the struggle between the Huaxing Gang and the Jiang clan.
With him around, Huaxing's southern line may be stronger, or it may be defeated by a group of people.
Whether he succeeds today or not depends on Zhao Sujian's nature and his own words.
Thinking of this, Liu Yi showed no expression and said lightly, "Young Master was not born in a strange way, but he has always followed nature. After regaining his consciousness, Xuan Jing stayed true to his nature and entered into Taoism. After two years of operation, the Zhao family's filial friends wrote in Xiangdang, Gao The voice is heard far and near. In the hands of Mr. Zhao, the Zhao family is now in the political arena and officialdom of Xuanhuai County and even Huaxing County. It can be said that it has become a powerful force and a strong force!"
Liu Yi's words have three meanings. The first sentence is to tell Zhao Sujian not to forget his kindness in the past; the second sentence is to remind Zhao Sujian that he has a good reputation and be careful of big trees attracting wind; the third sentence is to beat Zhao Sujian, now The Zhao family dominates Xuanhuai County. As the saying goes, "Every man is guilty of carrying a jade without any guilt, so don't respect yourself!"
The head is not for shit, the butt is!
Zhao Sujian had a far-sighted mind and naturally discerned the implication of Liu Yi's words. He stared at the teacup without moving, and his words were as light as weak tea, "I have established a wide circle of friends in Xuanhuai, and I will assist the royal family above and benefit the head of Guizhou below. How can I achieve glory?" Do you worship the body? Those who keep their bodies upright will not be afraid of swords and axes."
When dealing with people, first impression is particularly important. Zhao Sujian's impression of Liu Yi was destined from the moment Zhao Yao lost his soul in Fuling Mountain. Being able to talk calmly to Liu Yi today was already the limit, and Liu Yi didn't expect Zhao Sujian to give him any good looks.
"Hahaha!" Liu Yi laughed loudly, pointed at Zhao Sujian and said, "Mr. Zhao, if you say this, I
Do you think it's a lie? "
"Where does this come from?"
Liu Yi said quickly, "Young Master, you have made many friends and talented people, just to live in peace in this forest. Your heart is not in the temple, so why should you serve the royal family? Young Master, you have to think twice when you speak!" "
Zhao Sujian was silent. What he didn't expect was that Liu Yi had such strong insight and keen reaction ability. He always wanted to guide Liu Yi to speak according to his own ideas, but not only did Liu Yi not , and by drawing inferences, Zhao Sujian was caught off guard by killing him.
He fell silent.
Liu Yi drank the warm tea in one gulp, changed the topic, and said calmly, "I heard that Mr. Zhao issued a proclamation to oppose Jiang Feng?"
Zhao Sujian raised his eyebrows and said, "The document was handed over to Huaxing County. Why did General Liu ask questions knowingly?"
"In this case, I, the general, and Mr. Zhao are traveling together!"
Liu Yi grinned widely and looked at Zhao Sujian with big eyes. He had a scoundrel look on his face, and his funny look was exactly the same as that of the late Dongfang Chunsheng.
It’s true that you learn from whomever you follow.
Zhao Sujian didn't expect that Liu Yi would have such a philistine attitude. After serving tea for a long time, he slowly replied and said softly, "You are the enemy of the country, and I am the enemy of the family. Although the enemy is the same, we cannot." Same language!"
"But the hatred of a family cannot be avenged by the strength of the family!"
Liu Yi laughed, tilted his chin and said, "Young Master is a smart man. Having said this, General, do you still need to elaborate on the purpose of my coming here today?"
Zhao Sujian raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of murderous intent on his face, "You want me to join you?"
"Haha, Master Zhao is worrying too much!"
Liu Yi smiled lazily and gently pinched the string of walnut beads given by Yi Xian with one hand. Whenever he was in trouble, he would secretly pinch the string of beads in his sleeve a few times to feel at ease.
But seeing Liu Yi's words, he said, "I don't have such a big appetite, general. However, if Mr. Zhao is willing to join the Pingtian army and fight against the enemy together, I will be happy to do so."
