Chapter 454 Family Visits
A group of people were still immersed in the joyful atmosphere, and they didn't notice at all that a carriage stopped a few meters away on the slightly bumpy road.

Qingli figure jumped down from the position of the coachman, looked at the uneven gravel on the ground, just walked a few steps and got a little mud on it, couldn't help frowning angrily, glanced at the thick mud-sticking soles, and opened her mouth in distaste.

"What a broken ground! Every step is muddy."

"The good imperial city doesn't want to wait, but Zhu is asked to live in such a poor and remote place. It's really asking for trouble."

As soon as the words fell, a person in the carriage had already jumped out of the carriage, looking forward to the group of people at the end of the road, not noticing the mud splashed on his shoes.

"Is it here?"

"Where else could it be? When I received the letter, I searched for it. I can't make a mistake."

The figure who asked the question was somewhat joyful and excited, and shyly opened his mouth to the crowd.

"Li... Mr. Li, are you there?"

The sound was not loud, but the crowd who had been quiet for a while could hear it.

In the sky illuminated by the morning sun, Li Xian turned his head and looked over with countless pairs of eyes.

A slender figure stands tall and graceful, standing on the newly built stone road on the ridge of the field, pinching the hem of the skirt, looking at the figure in the middle of the crowd.

The breeze blew across the fields, and insects sounded from the foot of the mountain.

The woman felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by so many eyes. She kneaded the corners of her clothes with her hands hanging in front of her body. Seeing that handsome face, she couldn't help moving, but was blocked by her unique reservedness.

The clear skirt was swaying in the wind. Looking at the figure who seemed to have stepped out of a painting, Li Xian put a smile on his mouth and a gleam in his eyes, and ran over in a hurry.

"Quality?"

"How did you come?"

Suddenly there was such a pretty girl at the head of the village, and she called Li Xian's name. The eyes of the villagers wandered away from the two of them, and they showed meaningful smiles.

There were also young daughters-in-law who looked at the pretty lady at the end of the road, and then looked at her man's staring eyes, and suddenly became furious, grabbed the man by the ear, and dragged him away abruptly.

"Hey! Seeing that you are usually honest, now you are blind!"

"Then maybe Mr. Li's official wife came here. What does it have to do with you? Go back and see if Auntie's food is ready."

The men and women around looked at the man's embarrassment and laughed, which caused the young man to blush and hurried away without looking back.

Li Xian shook the mud from the soles of his shoes, walked with one foot high and the other low, amidst whispers and low laughter, scraping the sticky mud on the nearby grass, and cast his eyes on the woman opposite.

"The road was just built, and there is still some wet mud, so it's not easy to walk."

"Why did you come so soon? I thought your father would disagree, so let's go and talk."

With a gesture of invitation, she led Princess Changle to the shade of a tree by the side of the road, turned her head and waved at the villagers who were still watching the show, and shouted.

"Look, it's time to do the work."

Axiu glanced at the mud spots on Li Xian's body and the dirty shoes, blowing off the dust on the slate, glanced sideways at Li Xian, put her arms around her chest.

"Yohe~"

"It seems that our Mr. Li is not a lazy person. People who lie on the mansion and enjoy the flowers and scenery are working hard in the village. Tsk tsk, it's unbelievable."

Hearing these ironic words, Li Xian smiled embarrassedly.

"When you go to the countryside, you do as the Romans do. If you want to eat, you have to work. It's also for the sake of stability."

"These people are exceptionally kind and honest. They are used to the old-fashioned way before, and even if they can fully open their heads, I still need to personally give pointers on some matters."

His eyes fell to his side and he sat down to stare at his own figure. Li Xian squatted in front of Princess Changle, casually rubbed the mud off his clothes, and pulled Princess Changle's jade hand in distress.

"It's because of our quality that we came early, and the journey will inevitably be bumpy."

"By the way, how did you tell His Majesty and the Queen? Did you really leave the palace so easily?"

Speaking of this, Li Xian suddenly remembered the long journey, and pointed at Axiu who was sitting on one side with the dirt on her scuffed shoes.

"You, a guard, are also extremely unqualified. You dared to single-handedly let the princess run around. What should you do if you encounter a strong man on the road?"

"It's not that Her Royal Highness is worried about you, you are a wolf-hearted person, but you blame me instead, I..."

Princess Changle reached out to stop Axiu who was about to draw her sword again, and pulled Li Xian to sit beside her.

"I don't dare to tell my father and mother about this. I leave a letter from home and ask the guard to submit it three days after we leave."

"It's good to see that you are having a good time here, but I'm sorry for you, a frail scholar who has to spend all day with these rough farm work."

"Tired?"

He stretched out his hand to twist the mud stained on Li Xian's green silk, but Li Xian squeezed his hand backhand, laughing.

"It's good to wash off the mud. Don't stain your hands. The people in the village take good care of me. They are rushing to do the farm work, so I just talk about it."

There was a pause in the words, originally I wanted to say something that Princess Changle's actions would make Empress Li Er worried, but things have come to this point, and with that joyful jade face, Li Xian really didn't want to disturb her interest.

Turning around and pointing to the mountainside, Li Xian had a proud smile on his face.

"There is my home, built with wood and bamboo, which can shelter from wind and rain. I can look at the morning sun from the flat roof outside the house. It is very charming to see the sea of ​​clouds up close. It is also very interesting to watch meteors fly by and insects and frogs sing in the evening. "

"The four houses can't be called bright and spacious, but they are also exquisite and comfortable. After some time, I will take you up to have a look."

Seeing that Li Xian's introduction was particularly interesting, the two women also felt yearning and curiosity in their hearts.

The two of them also talked about homely things, such as road trips, and the customs and customs of Lujiashan.Interesting characters and funny little things came to life in Li Xian's mouth, causing Princess Changle to cover her mouth and smile.

After talking for a while, Princess Changle held Li Xian's strong palm and hesitated for a while, and finally the happy figure on her face spoke.

"Young Master Li, the imperial city has not been peaceful recently..."

"Old Wen, who took over the Firearms Battalion, did not manage well, and detonated some thunderstorms, killing and injuring more than 50 guards and more than 20 craftsmen. For this reason, the father felt a pain in his heart, and he hadn't eaten corn for three days..."

The smile on his face gradually subsided, Li Xian lowered his head slowly, his complexion became serious.

I used to think that I went deep into this small mountain village isolated from the world, could keep my ears shut and only focus on comfort and ease, but when I heard about the death of these innocent figures, I still couldn't help but feel a twinge of pain in my heart.

In the final analysis, the construction of this firearms battalion had nothing to do with me.

Perhaps if he had never created such a powerful device, there would be no tragedy.

After all, these are the children of many fathers, the fathers of many children, and the passing lives...

"I wanted to hide it...but I..."

"You should say it, it has something to do with me after all."

The scorpion's head slowly approached the shoulder of the slightly silent figure, and calm words spit out from the vermilion lips.

"How to choose, I listen to you."

select.

Li Xian really hated this word.

Previously, under the influence of Li Erhuang's authority, as a courtier, he could only obey.It was hard to leave the imperial city, but this piece of news from the imperial city made my heart tremble...
