Chapter 122 The Smart Girl

After more than ten days of peace, Han Wu was leisurely and contented in Ye City, but this morning he went to Wuji County on a whim.

The guards in Wuji County are all elite veterans from Jizhou, and they don't listen to the orders of the magistrate of Wuji County at all.

The county magistrate of Wuji County is a disciple of the Zhen family, so it can be said that the entire Wuji County is controlled by the Zhen family.

Han Wu acquiesced to this.

The Zhen family manages the transportation and sale of official salt for half of the Jizhou area, which is considered to be working for the prefecture, so Han Wu doesn't care whether the Zhen family controls Wuji County or not.

This time when he came to Wuji County, he also did not say hello in advance, and only brought Hua Mulan and a dozen elite bloodthirsty tiger guards with him.

As soon as they arrived at the city tower in Wuji County, the elite Jizhou veterans guarding the city wall immediately came to greet them.

Under the guard of these veterans, Han Wu went straight to Zhen's house after entering the city, and dismounted outside the courtyard.

After Zhen Yi got the news that Han Wu had arrived in Wuji County, he immediately changed his clothes and went out to greet him in person.

Just as he was getting ready, Zhen Yi saw that Han Wu had already arrived outside Zhen's family courtyard and was about to come in.

Zhen Yi immediately walked diagonally in front of Han Wu, bowed slightly, and said: "The Patriarch of the Zhen family, Zhen Yi, pays homage to Mr. Han. He didn't know that Mr. Han came to the Zhen's house. I feel disrespectful to greet him. It is really disrespectful."

The very sincere attitude made Han Wu see how Zhen Yi and the Zhen family surrendered to him.

Naturally, the Zhen family will not be dissatisfied now. Although a large amount of family property has been handed over before, the profits from the official salt have restored the Zhen family's vitality.

In less than five years, just relying on the official salt, the Zhen family is enough to once again become one of the best merchants in Jizhou.

Han Wu said to Zhen Yi: "There is no need to be so polite, you will be my father-in-law in a few years, it would seem hypocritical to be too polite now."

"I've been bored during this time, so I went to Zhen's house to have a look, where is Mi Er now?"

When Zhen Yi heard that Mr. Han was about to take a look at his daughter, he immediately smiled.

"Mr. Han, my daughter is studying painting and calligraphy in the room. I'll take you there right now."

Zhen Yi led Han Wu to Zhen Mi's room, Hua Mulan quietly looked at the surrounding courtyard construction, and felt that this place was far from Hexiang Bieyuan.

The courtyard construction of the Hexiang Bieyuan is close to the specifications of the princes, and the courtyards of these merchants are naturally incomparable with the Hexiang Bieyuan.

He and Zhen Yi walked outside the room where Zhen Mi was, Han Wu stretched out his arm to block Zhen Yi, preventing him from opening the door.

Signaling Zhen Yi to keep quiet with his eyes, Han Wu walked to the door himself and quietly pushed the door open.

Zhen Yi understood what Han Wu meant, and after a slight smile, he cupped his fists and bowed, and slowly stepped back to leave.

Hua Mulan stood waiting outside the door, while Han Wu entered the room by himself and walked straight to the inner room.

Zhen Mi was learning calligraphy in the inner room, and the person who taught her was Zhen Yi's wife, also Zhen Mi's mother.

Zhen Mi's mother was already a mother, but she couldn't hide her stunning appearance.

It is not difficult to see from Zhen Mi's mother that Zhen Mi will definitely be a peerless beauty when she grows up.

Zhen Yi's wife knew Han Wu, and when she saw Han Wu, she immediately stood up straight and saluted Han Wu as a maidservant.

Zhen Yi's first wife naturally has a high status in the Zhen family, but even Zhen Yi has to be respectful in front of Han Wu.

As Zhen Yi's wife, Zhen Mi's mother knew etiquette very well, so she saluted Han Wuxing as a maidservant.

"Go down! Zhen Yi is outside, and he probably hasn't gone far. I want to stay here with Mi Er."

Han Wu treated Zhen Mi's mother politely, but he did not lose his noble status as Young Master Han.

After Zhen Mi's mother smiled slightly, she glanced at her daughter and walked out of the room very politely.

Zhen Mi quietly raised her head and looked at Han Wu, then immediately lowered her head, her face flushed.

Although this little girl is only nine years old, she knows a lot about men and women, although she may not understand the details.

Han Wu walked towards Zhen Mi, moved a chair and sat beside her, and immediately hugged her into his arms.

Letting Zhen Mi sit on his lap, Han Wu's finger picked Zhen Mi's bridge of nose.

Han Wu said: "Mi'er, in another seven years, you will be my woman, why are you so shy now?"

"Sitting in the arms of your future husband, are you so embarrassed? It's so cute, with a flushed face, I can't help but want to kiss her."

Her lips gently approached Zhen Mi's ear, Han Wu's approach made Zhen Mi's whole body weak, but she pushed Han Wu lightly.

"Master Han, Brother Han, don't do this~ Mother said that after being kissed by a boy, she will conceive a baby!"

"Mi'er is only nine years old, and she can't conceive a baby yet. Mi'er herself is not that old! Brother Han, stop bullying Mi'er, okay~"

Zhen Mi's eyes were full of tears, she raised her head slightly to look at Han Wu, her pleading tone made Han Wu feel pity in his heart.

When Han Wu heard Zhen Mi say that a girl would become pregnant if she was kissed, he secretly smiled inwardly and shook his head.

Zhen Mi's mother definitely couldn't tell her daughter the details of those men and women's affairs, after all Zhen Mi was still too young.

"Then Mi'er will accompany my brother to Yecheng, okay? My brother will take you to Yecheng to have a look, and let's go out to play together."

After hearing Han Wu's words, Zhen Mi immediately raised her head, staring at Han Wu expectantly.

It is rare to have the opportunity to leave the courtyard, and Zhen Mi has never been to Yecheng, so she is naturally very happy.

This cute little lolita made Han Wu feel affection, especially those watery crescent eyes, so Han Wu couldn't help kissing her.

Han Wu stood up holding Zhen Mi directly, and walked out of the room, but Zhen Mi was both nervous and excited.

She was nervous because Zhen Mi was worried that her parents would not let her leave Wuji County, and excited because Zhen Mi hadn't been to Yecheng yet.

It is said that Yecheng is the most prosperous place in Jizhou, there are many interesting things there, Zhen Mi is eager to go out and have a look.

Han Wu walked out of the room and saw that Zhen Yi was at the very edge of the courtyard, and now he was walking towards this side.

Hua Mulan was still standing beside Han Wu.

After she and Zhen Mi looked at each other, they smiled slightly.

Han Wu said to Zhen Yi: "Patriarch Zhen, I'm going to take Mi'er to Yecheng for a few days, you shouldn't be too worried, right?"

"I have the protection of the bloodthirsty tiger guards, and your daughter will be very safe. Mi'er will live in the same room with me for a few days, so she is safe and secure."

"In a few days, when Mi'er gets tired of playing in Yecheng, I will send her back in person. What do you think?"

Although he was asking Zhen Yi if he agreed, Zhen Yi also knew that he was not qualified to refuse Han Wu.

Zhen Yi could only honestly agree, while Han Wu showed a cheerful smile, and walked out of Zhen's house with Zhen Mi in his arms.

Supporting Zhen Mi to sit on the horse, Han Wu himself got on the horse and let Zhen Mi sit in front of him.

Han Wu's horses have saddles and stirrups, and Hua Mulan's war horses also have these things, but he did not popularize stirrups to cavalry.

Stirrups and saddles are sharp weapons for riding horses. Large-scale production is not the same as small-scale production. Han Wu is unwilling to spread these things to other cavalry.

Because it would consume too much money.

Moreover, once other princes discover the role of stirrups and saddles, it will make Han Wu's future battles very troublesome.

But with the saddle, Zhen Mi felt that sitting on horseback was comfortable and fun.

Holding Zhen Mi in his arms with both arms, Han Wu rode forward at the slowest speed, which was not much faster than walking.

Zhen Mi found a comfortable position on the horseback, and pressed her whole body against Han Wu's chest.

With Han Wu holding her, Zhen Mi didn't worry about falling off the horse at all.

Taking a sneak peek at Hua Mulan again, Zhen Mi whispered in Han Wu's ear, "Big brother, that big sister's hair is tied up, don't big brother and that big sister already have a husband and wife relationship?"

After hearing Zhen Mi's words, Han Wu suddenly smiled, and lightly pinched Zhen Mi's little butt.

This startled Zhen Mi, and hid her whole face in Han Wu's chest.

Hua Mulan was very close to Han Wu, she naturally heard Zhen Mi's words, and her cheeks turned red instantly.
