Landlord of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 25
In Luonan City, Xu Qing and Xun Xueer in the inn room were reluctant to part. If Xun Yeyu hadn't been sitting on the sidelines watching, they would have snuggled together long ago.It is said that after Xu Qing was robbed of her first kiss, her relationship with Xun Xueer suddenly escalated. After all, it was a major event in two lifetimes.Xun Xueer treated Xu Qing like a submissive little wife, as if he was the one to not marry.

"You're leaving..." Xu Qing said slowly.

"Brother Xu... I can't bear it anymore." Xun Xueer lowered her head.

"It's okay, you live in Luoyang for a month or two, and I'll go see you, I'll give you enough money..."

"Hmm...Brother Xu..." Xun Xueer just called Xu Qing in a low voice, not daring to look at him, as if if she looked at him one more time, she would never be able to leave again.

Parting is always the most ruthless, and in the end Xu Qing sent Xun Xueer away, and for a month of affection, he watched him go to the end of the world.The only thing I'm worried about is that guy Shangguanyi, will he...

But once Xun Xueer left, Xu Qing did save a lot of trouble.Seeing that the wife he wanted to get was missing, the dandy from the Lu family asked around, and finally found out from the matchmaker that Xun Xueer was at Xu Qing's house.

So he joined hands with Uncle Xun Xueer's parents to sue Xu Qing to the county government for the crime of abducting his beloved.

Xu Qing admitted that he had met Xun Xueer and saved her life, but he insisted that Xun Xueer had left long ago, if you don't believe me, go check it out.The Xun family couple said why she left, she must have been abducted and sold to a distant place by you, Xu Qing.Xu Qing revealed that the Xun family and his wife sold their nephew's land and abused their niece. As a result, the county magistrate Zou checked and found that it was so.

In the end, it was thanks to that dude from the Lu family who blatantly contradicted County Magistrate Zou with his own background, which made Magistrate Zou furious. The Xun family couple made a false accusation, and Xun Xueer's siblings were counted as missing. These things have also become stories that have been circulated for a while.Xu Qing also sent a lot of gifts to County Magistrate Zou to express his gratitude.

The days finally calmed down. Xu Qing strolled around the village leisurely every day, chopping firewood, feeding horses, caring about food and vegetables, facing the fields, and spring flowers blooming.In this season, everything seemed to grow wildly. At first, the pigs in the village also became abnormal.

For this reason, old man Zheng ran to Xu Qing's house with a worried expression on his face, and pulled Xu Qing over to have a look. Xu Qing comforted him and said that he was fine, and he would grow faster in the future.Uncle Zheng was very surprised, and asked Xu Qing what was going on, and Xu Qing told him exactly that the pig was castrated, and so on, and also told Uncle Zheng about Liu San, who was castrating the pig.Uncle Zheng went away muttering about it, and soon the news that barrows can grow meat spread like wildfire. Compared with gossip and rumors, only the method of promoting production can spread so quickly.Immediately there were discussions from all over the world:
"Pigs can grow faster if they are eunuchs, do you know?" a man in the grass market asked everyone.

"I don't believe it, don't you see that the eunuchs are very thin after being castrated?" Another person retorted.

"Yes, yes, even if it can grow fast, so what, pigs are cheap meat, wouldn't it be even more cheap if castrated? Who would eat it..." Some people agreed with the second person.

"Then I don't care if it's cheap or not, anyway, there's nothing to eat about meat." There are also some who speak for castration.

"Hey, to tell you the truth, I went to Xuzhuang to have a look. Their pigs were bought last winter, and now they weigh [-] catties!" The one who said he had seen it with his own eyes immediately became the focus.

"Eighty catties...you talk nonsense, brat." Some people still didn't believe it.

"If you don't believe me, if you don't believe me, go and see for yourself."

"Whether it is true or not, the question is who can castrate a pig?" An old scholar shook his head and said, and when he said this, everyone agreed.

Yes, who will castrate a pig?The level of human flesh in ancient times is not as bad as in modern times. Eunuch Liu San knows how to castrate pigs!I believe that when these pigs are out of the slaughterhouse, many people will come to Liu San's barrows for their fame, and what's more, they may come to learn from a teacher. Send Liu San a promise of wealth.

In February, a recruitment order was sent to the Xu Mansion, breaking the peaceful days:
"Military order: Promote Xu Qing to be the captain of the battalion, command [-] troops, be controlled by Qi Wang Li Yuanji, prepare in three days, and quickly go to the hussar mansion to lead the troops and attack the rebel Liu Heita. There must be no mistakes." The knight who delivered the letter After speaking, he handed over another official booklet.

"The last general takes orders!" Xu Qing took the things and asked, "I don't know what to prepare for this expedition?"

"If you are an ordinary soldier, you have to prepare rice, rice, weapons, bows and arrows. Your lord is a battalion captain, and it is enough to bring some daily necessities." After the knight finished speaking, he rode his horse and left.

Xu Qing stood there in a daze for a long time.
"Are we going to war again? Although I'm an official this time, not cannon fodder, but the battlefield has no eyes after all. My little Xue'er is still waiting for me! This time I must get a civil job when I come back, and I can't do it again." It's my life."

When he came back to his senses, Xu Qing looked at the general order again.

"Qi Wang Li Yuanji? This is a fake...why not Li Shimin... oh."

No matter what, military orders cannot be violated. Xu Qing arranged the affairs of the mansion, prepared a few bags of fried rice with soybeans, and rode the old horse with the latest wear-resistant tires on the old horse's hooves—horseshoes. After arranging the affairs of the mansion, So on the journey.

"Oh, the young master is gone..." Liu San closed the door.

"What should Sister Xun do?" Xu Qi looked at the last touch of Xu Qing's back and said in a daze.

"Don't talk nonsense..." The other three people scolded in unison, Xu Qi is good at other things, and his words are a little bit stupid, Xu Qing doesn't care much, so let Xu Qi go.

Xu Qing went to a small mountain village, and was about to feed the horse some grass, when there was a lot of noise behind him, Xu looked behind him, and four children jumped out.

"Hey! I opened this road, and I planted this tree. If you want to live on from now on, you can save money to buy roads." The tallest child said pretendingly, but he fluently talked about a robbery slang.It's just that the childish expression on his face just seems to be interesting.

"Kid, do you know who I am?"

"You, who are you?" One sentence missed the bottom line, which robber cares who you are.

"I am a tiger demon who went up the mountain. This time I came down the mountain, and I want to catch a child to present to the mountain god. Hehehe, I think you are pretty good..." Xu Qing said nonsense in a serious manner.After all, he was a child. Hearing Xu Qing's words, he backed away a few steps in fright. Xu Qing exchanged a glance with them: "Let's catch two more today!"

"Ah, run, run, don't play the game of robbery anymore!" Several children left crying and shouting, Xu Qing smiled on the side of the road and continued to feed the horse.Two villagers passed by in a hurry, still saying:

"Hurry up, Daoist Wang is going to open the altar to catch demons."

"Widow Sun is really suffering. She was bewitched by an evil spirit. I heard that the fire is going to burn her!"

fire?Burning the widow to catch the demon?Xu Qing felt that something was wrong, so he followed from a distance.
