The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 124 Erxian Village

"It's very simple." Princess Jinyang said with a smile: "Usually, Sizi would feel terribly frightened when he sees a cockroach, but the more afraid he is, the harder Sizi will stare at it. It will be fine if you get used to it. So, This lion is very fierce, so Sizi will look at it hard, and it will be fine if he gets used to Sizi."

After hearing what Princess Jinyang said, the people around couldn't laugh or cry. Can this fierce horse be like a cockroach?

"The more you are afraid, the harder you stare at it. You are so brave, you are worthy of being my little son." His Majesty Li Er laughed proudly: "Okay, I will reward Sizi together with this lion horse."

In the end, Princess Jinyang became the biggest winner in the school field. Not only did she harvest several Dawan foals, she also acquired the highest quality lion pony. Li Tai was already thinking about whether he should build one around the warm pavilion. The stables are up.

Because he was eager to rush to Erxian Village, Xuan Shijing didn't stop for too long along the way, and went straight to Shanxi. The more he went to Guanzhong, the more prosperous it was. The sons and daughters of China, countless simple people work on this land at sunrise and rest at sunset, generation after generation.

Erxianzhuang is located in Luzhou Mansion, not far from Chang'an, Xuan Shijing intends to write a letter to his mother, telling her that he will stay in Erxianzhuang for a while.

After entering the boundary of Luzhou Mansion, Gao Jun drove his carriage to Erxian Village with ease and familiarity. After passing through Luzhou City, the carriage began to drive to the wilderness.

"Why are you getting farther and farther away from Luzhou?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"Young Lord, Erxian Village is said to be in Luzhou Mansion, but it is not near Luzhou City. It is more than ten miles away from Luzhou. The entire Erxian Village is built on the mountain." Gao Jun replied.

Xuan Shijing nodded when he heard that, also, if it was near Luzhou City, how could Erxian Village survive intact during the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty. As a place where people from the rivers, lakes and green forests gather, it is naturally on the top of the mountain.

When it was dark, I arrived at the foot of the mountain where Erxianzhuang was located. I walked up the winding mountain road for nearly half an hour before I saw the gate of Erxianzhuang, and there were four people guarding the gate. .

Due to the darkness and being too close, Xuan Shijing couldn't see the whole picture of Erxianzhuang, but only vaguely saw an outline. Looking inside from the mountain gate, the high-walled courtyard was tightly packed, probably because Because of the war, that's why the villa was built like this. After a rough look at the surrounding terrain, it can be said that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

The carriage drove to the door, and the two guards came up, cupped their hands and said, "I don't know which hero is here."

Listening to the guard's words, one can hear a strong green forest atmosphere, and also, the people who come and go to Erxian Village are not good people in the eyes of the government.

Gao Jun sat in front of the carriage and said to the man, "Tell Uncle Qian that the owner is back."

The two guards glanced at each other?Owner?Ever since I came to Erxian Village, I have never seen the legendary owner of the village. Isn't it always the manager Qian who manages the affairs of the village?Why did a suzerain suddenly appear?
The other two guards saw the two people standing still in front of the carriage, and came over curiously. When they saw Gao Jun on the carriage, their faces showed excitement.

"Brother Gao Jun?"

"Shi Hu! What a boy." Gao Jun jumped out of the carriage, embraced Shi Hu, and then asked separately: "Shi Hu, why did you come to see the gate?" Gao Jun and Shi Hu are also brothers of the same generation, followed by a The master practiced martial arts, according to Shi Hu's martial arts skills, it is definitely more than enough to be a caravan guard under Uncle Qian.

"It's not that half a month has passed since September [-]th. There are still some friends on the road who stay in Zhuangzi, so Manager Qian asked the people below to be more strict. There are often people wandering around this mountain, seeming to be aimed at our Zhuangzi. Come here, so the guards don't dare to relax." Shi Hu explained.

These people are probably the people who came from Chang'an to inquire about the reality of Erxianzhuang. In the room, Young Master and Long'er are in the carriage."

"Young Master? Long'er?" Shi Hu was stunned for a moment, and after realizing it, he stared at Gao Jun: "Go in quickly, I will notify Uncle Qian immediately." After finishing speaking, Shi Hu confessed to the three people next to him. Fan, then ran into Zhuangzi.

Gao Jun jumped into the carriage and drove the carriage into the gate of Erxianzhuang, leaving behind three guards who didn't know where they were.

"Young Master?" The three of them looked at each other.

After entering Zhuangzi, Gao Jun took Xuan Shijing to the main courtyard with ease and familiarity, and stopped the carriage in front of the courtyard. This is the courtyard where Xuan Mingde once lived. Now the courtyard has taken on a new look, and it can be seen that it has been renovated every year. , It is completely different from what Gao Jun remembered ten years ago. I am afraid that Uncle Qian changed the yard to this appearance in order to prevent people from being hurt.

Xuan Shijing, Long'er, and Gao Jun stepped into the yard. The yard was very large and spacious, and there were several maple trees planted in the yard. At this time, the maple leaves were fiery red and fell to the ground. After turning on the lights, they came over, and then lit up the lanterns in the courtyard. In an instant, the whole courtyard became much warmer. After the courtyard was lit up, a few maids opened the door and began to decorate the room.

Just as Xuan Shijing was standing in the courtyard and observing the courtyard, another person walked in from the courtyard door. This person was wearing a black hat, a purple round-neck satin gown, and a long gown. His figure was slightly fatter. Walking towards Xuan Shijing and Gao Jun with a smile on his face.

Seeing this person, Xuan Shijing probably knew his identity. He was probably the housekeeper of Erxianzhuang, the father of Qiandui, the Uncle Qian that Gao Jun and Long'er talked about.

Qiandui's father's name was Qian Duo, but Gao Jun said that he didn't call him that name at first, and later, when the world was in chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, Qian Duo saw that the people were poor and suffering, while the officials and gentry were rich and unkind, so they determined to To earn a lot of money, so as not to let my brothers and family suffer, I have been in Erxian Village since then, first helping Shan Xiongzhong and Shan Xiongxin to manage the business of the village, and then Xuan Mingde, when I arrived in Xuanshi Jing here, Qian Duo can be regarded as an old man who has gone through three generations.

"Uncle Qian!" Long'er was also very kind when she saw Qian Duo, and her joy was beyond words. As a man, Gao Jun was very happy to reunite after a long absence, but compared to Long'er, his emotions were restrained. He smiled and greeted Qian Duo: "Uncle Qian."

"Good boy, you've grown up." Qian Duo sighed. They haven't seen each other for more than ten years, and the two are no longer children around him.

Seeing Xuan Shijing standing in the courtyard, Qian Duo hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Subordinate Qian Duo, pay homage to the owner."

Seeing this, Xuan Shijing hurriedly stepped forward to help Qian Duo up: "Uncle Qian doesn't need to do this big gift. After my mother and son went to Chang'an, Uncle Qian and you are the only one who has to work on this huge Zhuangzi. Shijing can't afford the money." Uncle is such a great gift." Xuan Shijing hurriedly cupped his hands back.

Xuan Shijing admired Qian Duo very much. He had been loyal to the Hou Mansion for more than ten years, cultivated many talents with one hand, and managed the livelihood of hundreds of people in Erxian Village. It was not easy.
