The Beautiful Land

"Because the Zou Mansion is a big clan of Yanzhou, Jining is powerful, and the power on the canal can be said to be deeply entrenched. Therefore, even if they look forward to the canal dredging and sailing, they may not necessarily have anything to do with our Jinyiwei." Shen Qianlan narrowed his eyes and said. "After all, it is not just our emperors who support the relocation of the capital this time!"

The companion thoughtfully: "You mean, the Zou family intends to cooperate with the temple masters? But when Song Shangshu was in Yanzhou, the Zou family seemed to be quiet?"

"Song Shibo made a private visit at the time. It is clear that I don't want to disturb him. Maybe the Zou family is worried that going up will make Song Shibo unhappy." Shen Lan groaned, "Anyway, after the construction of the canal, people like the Zou family will not be less. To get the chance to deal with Song Shibo."

"The Zou family has mastered Jining for several generations. For such a family, Song Shangshu will certainly be tempted." His companion looked at him, "It is said that Song Shangshu is carrying Miss Song on this trip? You were suspicious of Shandong Wei before. Is it because Miss Song gave you cakes?"

Shen Qianlan's face was calm: "The reopening of the canal this time is for the purpose of moving the capital. This is a major event that affects generations to come."

The companion pondered for a moment, and whispered: "Although Song Shangshu is in power, the Yanhe family can't rely on him, but the matter is big, you and I are both family members. We have been nurturing the family for many days, and we have encountered this Opportunities, don’t give back one or two, even if the elders in the family don’t say anything, it should be for future generations?

"If you are planning for your children and grandchildren, you should think about sapphire." Shen Qianlan said with a blank expression, "the time is almost, we should go."

The companion frowned, and it took a while to follow in his footsteps.

...Xi Fuwei still knows nothing about these things. This evening, she estimated the time when Zou Yiang put the snake last night, got up in the dark, and turned over a set of things that were more conducive to action from the suitcase. The dress was worn, and the waist-length hair was carefully tied up. He took the dagger that has never left the body since he left Xi's Mansion, and tiptoed out of the building, waiting with breathlessness in the secluded part of the courtyard.

The time she pinched was accurate, and before long, three people sneaked in through the back door.

Xi Fuwei squinted her eyes. After those things happened last night, the Fenzhi building was carefully checked up and down. The original dog hole that only suckling dogs could pass through was blocked. The back door It was seriously and really locked.

At this moment, the three Zou Yiang directly unlocked and came in. One can imagine that there are insiders in this building.

This is not surprising, after all, this is the Zou Mansion, and there is no shortage of servants who are willing to coax Zou Yiang, the only male heir in the Zou Mansion, to please.

Xi Fuwei was surprised that almost no one was found to be abnormal the night before. It seems that the acting skills of this traitor are very good.

I just don’t know if such a talent is purely trying to please Zou Yiang, or is there another way?

Turning her thoughts in her heart, she saw Zou Yi'ang looking around, whispering to one of the accompanying servants to lift the bamboo basket to the back of Fenzhi Building, and after pondering, she suddenly walked out!

"You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, why are you here?!" Although Zou Yiang personally came to supervise him because he was not at ease, he had never done such a bad thing. At the moment, he was both excited and scared, and he was happily urging to proceed. Next, I saw someone coming out from a dark corner, and was frightened back two steps, his heart pounding, and he almost didn't shout!

With the bleak light of a dying wind lamp in the corridor not far away, I could barely see that it was Xi Fuwei, and I was a little regained. I only felt that after just a few breaths, the robe on his back was wet and swallowed. He swallowed, and asked suspiciously, "You of the night...you are a female generation..."

I wanted to ask a few words to conceal my behavior, whether I was young and did not do enough bad things. This calmness has not been tempered. At this moment, Xi Fuwei looked at him with a smile, and he became less confident. The voice also lowered.

"I'm a little hungry at night and can't sleep. I came out to find something to eat." Xi Fuwei looked at his expression, and said to her heart that this kid seemed to have just walked on the path of spoiledness, but she also knew she was afraid of knowing her guilty conscience. It's so bad. Ten percent of them are broken jars now: My son is about to toss you, what's wrong?

Thinking like this, she said with Yan Yue, "My son, what is the person behind you holding?"

Zou Yiang was most afraid of her asking this, and hurriedly took a step forward, trying to block her sight: "It's nothing... you hurry back and settle it!"

I was in trouble because I was afraid that she would ask why she appeared here?

Even more afraid Xi Fuwei insisted on pulling him to see Zou Zhihan and Mrs. Shang.

"Let's see!" Xi Fuweiquan didn't hear his prevarication. With a light turn, she bypassed him and raised her hand to grab the bamboo basket.

The servant holding the bamboo basket tried to push her hand away, but was evaded by a twist of her wrist. She didn't react yet. A flower was in front of her, her hand was empty, and the bamboo basket had been taken by Xi Fuwei, and she opened it lightly. !

Zou Yiang only felt that his heart was beating in his throat. He was afraid that Xi Fuwei would discover her prank, but at the same time he also had a secret expectation. What would Xi Fuwei look like after opening the bamboo basket and seeing the scene inside?

Scared? fear? Huarong faded? Scream? hysteria?

"Patter."

However, after Xi Fuwei turned on, she looked at the light not far away for a moment, without blinking her eyes, she even smiled, her tone light and careless, but Zou Yiang clearly heard something. Contempt: "Snake meat? Not bad."

At this moment, Zou Yiang almost thought he had heard it wrong.

"Zou Zi, do you want to eat?" Xi Fuwei closed the lid of the bamboo basket and looked at him with a smile, "If I eat, I will make one more."

"......" Zou Yiang never thought that things would develop in this way. After a moment of panic, he said puffedly, "Eat!"

So after a long while, in the small kitchen of Fenzhi Building independent of the main building, the flickering fire illuminates the four people with different faces.

The two little servants who followed Zou Yiang only looked forward to Zou Yiang's horse. Regarding the current situation, Zou Yiang's expression was changeable, and he didn't say a word, and he didn't say anything.

Xi Fuwei is dedicated to cooking this basket of snakes: the knives in the small kitchen seem to have been sharpened by the cook. They are very sharp. They are used to clean up the ingredients that have been dug out from hibernation and are still half awake after some toss. The convenience.

She neatly decapitated a bunch of snakes, peeled off their tails, and cut off their skins. She also greeted Zou Yi'ang: "Can you eat snake gall? It is said to detoxify and is good for your body."

Zou Yi'ang sullenly shook his head slowly.

He is in a very bad mood now. According to the plan, he is here to scare Fenzhi up and down the building, instead of watching Xi Fuwei use the group of snakes she used to scare them into the pot in front of him.

Although Xi Fuwei didn't say anything to ridicule, Zou Yiang always felt it was a silent mockery of herself when she watched her peel off the snake skin neatly.

The most depressing thing is that he can't say anything!

After all... when Xi Fuwei asked him if he wanted to eat before, what did he say to eat?

At that time, I thought that this female gentleman who was three years older than herself was calm and calm when she saw a basket of snakes in the middle of the night. If she said "not to eat", wouldn't it be as scared?

But now looking at the pot of snake meat soup in front of me, I feel stuck in my heart. I can't get up and down: I brought a basket of snakes with me in the middle of the night, is it just to give her vegetables? !

The more I thought about it, the more irritated I went, but I thought of leaving like this, and it was a little bit like Xi Fuwei's remediation and fleeing. Zou Yiang thought for a long time, and finally stayed with gritted teeth and took the two men. Together with Xi Fuwei, they cleaned up a pot of snake meat, and then left aggrieved.

After he left, Xi Fuwei tidied the small kitchen, adjusted her dress, returned to the building, and then went up. She saw that the door of the opposite room was ajar, with her long hair loose and loosely tied. Fu Chuoxian, Subai held the door frame lightly with his hand, looking at her with a complicated expression.

Xi Fuwei was stunned for a moment before she stepped onto the last step and nodded slightly at her: "Sister can't sleep? Why are you standing here at night?"

"...What about you?" Fu Chuoxian obviously didn't expect that she would be just a little bit stunned as if nothing had happened, frowning, a little displeased, "Where did you go in the evening?"

There was a clear question in her tone.

Xi Fuwei didn't care, and said with a smile: "I'm going to block Young Master Zou."

"You guessed that he won't give up watching us calmly today, and he will definitely keep up?" Fu Chuoxian raised his eyebrows, blurted out, and laughed at himself, "Of course you will know... clever."

"My sister laughed, but didn't my sister guess that, so she got up in the middle of the night and planned to discuss with me?" Xi Fuwei also laughed, and said softly, "Otherwise, how could I find that I am not in the room, Watching here?"

Fu Chuoxian pursed his mouth, and said after a while: "I didn't agree with Xishi Ningren last night. I just knew that Zou Yiang was not the kind of person who would let us make a move and he would accept it. At that time, I thought you were against all opinions. You just came here and don’t understand him. Looking at it now, I look down on you too much... What was the result of you blocking him?"

She unconsciously brought a bit of sourness in her tone, "I don't know if I need to call you "Young Grandma" in the future?"

"Sister thinks too much." Xi Fuwei walked to her. Both of them were tall and slim girls. The lights in Fu Chuoxian's room shone from behind her, adding a bit of gloom to her, but clearly Xi Fuwei's eyebrows were painted in white, with gentleness in the beauty, her blushing lips exhaled like blue, but her eyes were indifferent. She said softly, "Why did I stand out against the crowd last night? This Fenzhi Lou, except for the servants who are waiting, you and me, the Yao family’s mother and daughter are just four! Yao family’s mother and daughter, as they said, are all due to the old lady who has a place here! In this case, they would make trouble for such a thing. Are you up?"

"As for me, I can easily find such a place to stay. It really doesn't look like going back and dragging my brother down!"

"Three out of the four people don't want to make a big deal, only one sister is confident... Those who dare not come forward, who can be blamed? So this can only be natural."

Fu Chuoxian's eyes flickered, and he said softly: "It's useless for you to tell me this! Don't forget that the old lady warned you before. What you did tonight... Do you think the old lady will let you go?"
