Juan Wang's Little Lady: Nongmen hunters work hard to plow the fields

Chapter 58

In August, the lake level is too clear.

Jizhou is located in the northern border of Daqi, with a vast territory, governing [-] prefectures and [-] counties in total, bordering Dingzhou in the east, Huizhou in the south, and separated from Beidi in the northwest.

In the south of Jizhou, there is rainwater from the south of the Yangtze River, and there are many lakes and rivers; in the north, it borders the Great Wall and has a dry climate.Jining Mansion, the capital of Jizhou, lives in the center of Jizhou. The climate is neither dry nor wet, and there is not too much rain. There are loess hills and rivers and lakes.

Luhua Lake is located in the outskirts of Jining City, covering an area of ​​[-] mu. It is named after the reeds in and around the lake.

When Shu Xuan rushed to the lake, his forehead and neck were covered with sweat.It was too hot in Ji Ning in August. Standing by the lake, a gust of cool wind blew in. He took off the summer hat on his head and fanned it along the fan, finally cooling down a bit.

"Where is your young master?" Shu Xuan asked the servant who brought him here.

The boy was dumb, pointed to the lake, and made noises.

Shu Xuan looked in the direction of his finger, and saw a young man in a coarse jacket standing on the water at the intersection of water and sky, holding a fishing rod in his hand.

Shu Xuan is the first disciple of the Shuzi generation of the Momen, with excellent eyesight.He recognized that the young man was stepping on a clump of reeds, and couldn't help sighing: "Good work!"

There was no boat on the shore, so the young man must have stepped on the reeds all the way. Shu Xuan recognized the route, lifted his feet, and ran towards him with big strides on the reeds.

He stopped beside the young man, also stepping on reeds.The reed was swaying, and the two of them seemed to be standing on the water and walking lightly.

The young man knew he was coming, but he was still concentrating on fishing.

"Senior Brother Shu Xuan, right?" The young man looked at Yu Piao and smiled, "My master once said that among the younger disciples in the sect, Senior Brother Shu Xuan is the one with the deepest kung fu, and the lightness kung fu is even more first-rate."

Shu Xuan smiled brightly: "You are not as young as you, and your lightness kung fu is not as good as you. I am really ashamed of my brother."

The two smiled at each other.

This was the first time they met, but Shu Xuan had a long-standing friendship with this uninitiated direct disciple.The master was very proud of his disciple, saying that he was a rare talent that he hadn't seen in a hundred years, with a gentle temperament and a high standard of character.

Who would have thought that he was.

The fish bit the hook, Zhang Jianshan pulled up the fishing line, took the herring off the hook, and threw it into the small bamboo basket beside it.There were already four or five fish in the bamboo basket.

"Let's go, let senior brother eat fish."

The younger brother also smiled very warmly.Shu Xuan thought, for such a young and promising young man, there must be many women who like him.

***
Back in Zhang's compound, an old slave invited Shu Xuan to drink tea in the hall, and the young master of his family came as soon as he changed his clothes.

After a while, Zhang Jianshan came out in a clean Xuanqing sword suit, and greeted him respectfully with the courtesy of Momen.

Shu Xuan saw that this junior had the demeanor of a son of an aristocratic family, and also had the unrestrained and magnanimous style of a Jiang Hu person, and his affection increased a bit.

After seeing the ceremony, we can finally turn to the topic.Shu Xuan took out the letter entrusted to him by the giant from his bosom, handed it to Zhang Jianshan with both hands, and said: "Master has an order. Brother Jianshan has not yet completed his studies and it is not time to be a teacher. Order you to come back to Broken Sword Mountain with me."

Broken Sword Mountain is the main altar of the Mo Sect, it is hidden deep in the high mountains of Huizhou, if it is not for the disciples of the sect to lead the way, outsiders will never be able to find it.

The younger brother silently read the letter from the teacher, still neatly folded it, and put it in his arms.

The old house slave at the side heard that the master asked him to go back, and rushed forward and said: "Young master, no! Now that Jizhou is improving slightly, it is a critical time. If the young master withdraws at this time, I am afraid that all previous efforts will be wasted!"

Zhang Jianshan glanced at the old house slave, who immediately lowered his head and kept silent.

Zhang Jianshan clasped his fists and said, "Brother Shuxuan, the current situation in Jizhou is indeed difficult for me to escape. When I left Zhangjiacun, I went south to Yangzhou and north to Jizhou, but the master did not object. In addition, in the past three years, the master has never believed in me, but now I suddenly let me go." Getting started, I don’t know what’s the meaning?”

Shu Xuan knew that this junior brother had a high status, he was different from those Jianghu people like them.He is the eldest son of the young master of the Zhang family in Jizhou, and he is closely related to the tranquility of half of the country in Daqi.He returned to Jizhou two years ago. After some painstaking efforts, the Zhang family in Jizhou, which was originally a mess, gradually united, and the weak Jizhou army also improved.He bears the hatred of the country and the family. If he uses Jizhou as a base to raise troops and calm the people, and separate one side, he will stand as king himself, or send his troops south to aspire to the Central Plains.

However, Shu Xuan also knew that it was because of his immeasurable future that his family teacher wanted to polish him, and he was not allowed to leave the teacher too early.

Shu Xuan said solemnly: "Junior brother should know that the first rule in our sect is that the orders of giants cannot be disobeyed. Although you have not formally started, but the orders of teachers are like a mountain."

Seeing Zhang Jianshan clasped his fists and said nothing, Shu Xuan hinted that he dismissed the left and right sides.

After all the servants had left, Shu Xuan lowered his voice and said, "Master's destiny is approaching. One year later, our Mo sect will re-elect the chief disciple, who will be the next giant. I mean, do you understand? "

Zhang Jianshan looked a bit stunned, and laughed dumbly: "But... I'm afraid I'm going to embarrass myself, should I ask Master to think again?"

Shu Xuan sneered and said: "Junior Brother Shan is so entrusted with you! You really think that you can choose the chief disciple of my Mo Sect if you want. I really don't know that there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the people. No wonder, the master said that you have not completed your studies!"

Unexpectedly, this young junior brother was also pushing back against his teacher's orders. Shu Xuan was displeased, and said with a flick of his sleeves: "Think about it slowly, anyway, whether you want it or not, I have to take you back. Don't blame the senior brother for not being willing." You're welcome. Zhuang Wai is waiting for you!"

As soon as he walked out of the hall, Zhang Jianshan came up again, cupped his hands and said: "Senior brother, stop, and junior brother will take orders. It's just that Jizhou is such a big stall, and you can't just leave. Can you allow me two days, let me explain a little bit , and returned to Broken Sword Mountain with senior brother."

Shu Xuan knew that he was going to summon the elders of the He clan in Jizhou to explain what happened after he left.Jizhou is so big that within two days, the clan elders from all the prefectures had no time to rush back to the capital, so they said, "There is no rush. After you arrange everything, it's not too late to leave." Seeing how young and handsome his junior was, he even laughed and said: "Even if you want to get married before leaving, I'll wait for you."

After speaking, Shu Xuan laughed and went out.

***
For several days in a row, the elders of the Jizhou clan and the generals of the Jizhou army were about to step through the threshold of the Zhang Family Courtyard.Zhang Jianshan explained one by one what happened after he left, and said goodbye to them.

The day I left was quiet, and no one came to see me off.

Jizhou is still hot in August, and the branches of the willow trees on the side of the post road remain motionless.

Shu Xuan saw that his junior brother was neatly dressed in a sword suit, so he didn't know if he was hot or not.

He was already very handsome, and he was so trim.Shu Xuan sneered and said, "Did Junior Brother ever get engaged?"

"The big thing is not yet finished, why should we do it at home?" He said indifferently.

"If it can't be done, is it true that the younger brother is planning to become a monk?"

He didn't answer.

Shu Xuan said with a smile: "Junior brother is so talkative, in the future he should find a lady who talks a lot, otherwise the house will be quiet."

"When you marry a wife, you should marry a virtuous woman. Naturally, it's better for a woman to be stern." He replied solemnly.

Shu Xuan laughed out loud.

Even Shu Xuan didn't expect that many years later, his talented junior would fall into the hands of the most troublesome little lady in the world.

Sometimes thinking of his remarks about marrying a wife and a virtuous man, Shu Xuan would secretly shake his head as a joke.

It's destiny~!
