The "handicap" of the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion has expanded a lot over the years, but there is no character in the mansion who can take charge alone, generally Li Xin takes his own ideas and then explains everything, sometimes he is a little at a loss, fortunately, Zhao Jia is willing to help him, and things in the southwest will be a lot smoother in recent years.

Now if you calculate the age, Zhao Jia is thirty-one years old, and these five years are the five years of the peak of his life, all of which were handed over to the Jing'an Hou Mansion, so Li Xin is quite grateful to him.

It is worth mentioning that because this product is middle-aged, the body is indeed getting rich, and the whole person looks fatter than five years ago, even if he is still dressed in white, but he does not have the feeling of being fluttering back then.

When Zhao Jia heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "Master Hou makes fun of it, when you are old, it is inevitable to grow some meat." ”

The Marquis of Jing'an smiled and said, "Go, get into my carriage and go home." ”

The carriage of the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion is much wider, and it is not a problem to sit down five or six people, Li Xin took the lead and walked up, Zhao Jia glanced back at the inconspicuous carriage behind him, and instructed the people accompanying him: "Follow us." ”

In this carriage, there is his luggage, most of which are manuscripts, calligraphy and paintings and other things that he has written down in Hanzhou Mansion over the years, and half of the carriage is piled up.

After explaining to the entourage, Zhao Jia and Zhao Fang got into Li Xin's carriage, and after the three of them sat down, the carriage slowly entered the city.

Li Xin glanced at Zhao Fang, who was sitting next to Zhao Jia, and said with a smile: "This kid is in trouble with Brother You'an during this time?" ”

"No, I didn't."

Speaking of Zhao Fang, Zhao Jia smiled and said: "Master Hou, this apprentice, is very smart, his talent for reading is higher than mine, and he has not read dead books, a few years older, hone it, and he will have a chance to stand out." ”

Li Xin shook his head slightly.

"He's not a student of mine, he's just lived in my house for a few years."

When Zhao Fang heard this, his eyes were a little gloomy, but he was an optimistic person, and he quickly stopped paying attention to it.

Li Xin glanced at him and asked, "Have you seen your grandfather in Hanzhou Mansion?" ”

Zhao Shidao's branch of the Zhao County Li family, was placed in Hanzhou Mansion by Li Xin, in the blink of an eye, it has been five years, Zhao County Li family is not in charge, and the second generation after Zhao Shidao has not produced any powerful figures, so the five years in Hanzhou Mansion are still peaceful, and nothing has happened.

However, their days in Hanzhou Mansion were much more downtrodden than when they were in Zhao County before.

"My grandfather died."

Zhao Fang, who was already fourteen years old, was not shorter than Li Xin, he took a deep breath, and his tone was a little obscure.

"The old man went a year ago, and when the disciple arrived at the Hanzhou Mansion, he only saw the tombstone."

The Marquis of Jing'an frowned slightly.

"The head of the Li family went...... How did I not know? ”

Zhao Fang was silent and did not speak.

Zhao Jia on the side opened his mouth to say something, but considering that Zhao Fang was also there, he didn't speak.

Li Xin is a smart man, he just wondered for a moment, and then he figured out the reason.

The reason is simple, and there is some cruelty.

That's ...... Zhao Jun Li, it doesn't matter.

A family with only one or two thousand people left, and has lost most of its property and legitimacy of existence, and there are not many talents in the family, this kind of family will probably fall apart in another thirty or forty years, and it is no longer qualified to be cared for by many people.

In other words, the news of the Li family of Zhaojun is no longer qualified to be sent to Li Xin's desk.

Thinking about this, Li Xin sighed slightly and said softly: "The festival mourns and changes." ”

Zhao Fang reluctantly showed a smile on his face, and said, "It's not in the way." ”

His former name was "Li Chengye", he grew up with Li Shidao since he was a child, and it is impossible to say that he has no feelings for Li Shidao, but after all, he left Li Shidao at the age of five and came to live in Jing'an Houfu, and the most important adolescence in his life was grown up in Jing'an Houfu, so although he was inevitably sad, it was not too strong.

What's more, he knew that this matter had been many months ago, and it had eased a lot by now.

Li Xin reached out and patted the kid on the shoulder, and didn't say anything more.

Then he turned his head to look at Zhao Jia and asked with a smile, "Brother You'an is going back to Beijing, do you have any plans?" ”

Compared with Zhao Jia, who was much calmer back then, he bowed his head slightly when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Naturally, it is up to the Hou Ye's arrangement." ”

Li Xin said with a smile: "Brother You'an's wish is to enter the imperial court, what if I let Brother You'an continue to stay in the Jing'an Hou Mansion to help me?" ”

Zhao Jia was silent.

After a while, he sighed, "Then Zhao Jia doesn't have the ability to resist. ”

Marquis Li laughed: "It's fun." ”

"Brother You'an first rests at home for a period of time, and then thinks about where you want to be an official, you once worked as a county magistrate in Mianzhu, which can be regarded as a resume, and when the time comes, I will write you a recommended recital, saying that you were injured when you first went to the west, and you have been recuperating in the southwest for several years, and you will return to Beijing, and then ask you for an official position to do."

Speaking of this, Li Xin said very generously: "The local prefect of the prefecture and the head of the six departments should have no problem. ”

Scholars take Xiuqi Zhiping as their life goal, and Zhao Jia is naturally no exception, he came out of the Ye family to follow Li Xin, just to one day no longer be a staff member, and now his wish is about to come true, even if he is much calmer now, he is inevitably a little excited in his heart.

After taking a deep breath, Zhao Jia said slowly: "Let me think about it for a few days." ”

Li Xin patted him on the shoulder and said, "I can let Brother You'an be an official, and I can also give Brother You'an a good foundation, but what is the future after becoming an official, that is the matter of the ministry, so I can't interfere." ”

Marquis Jing'an's words are not attacking Zhao Jia, although he is now a civil official, but fundamentally he is still from the military attache system, he has almost no foundation in the civil official circle, and he can't get involved, the Zhao family really went from the dark to the bright to be an official, and Li Xin really couldn't help him.

Moreover, the Zhao family was recommended by him, and he would naturally be labeled as the Marquis of Jing'an, Li Xin has offended many people in the court over the years, and these people have nothing to do with him, maybe they will embarrass Zhao Jia.

Zhao Jia smiled, bowed his head to Li Xin and said: "It is to be a parent official in a small county, as long as the people of a county can live and work in peace and contentment, it is convenient and sufficient, Zhao Jia does not seek to be promoted and make a fortune." ”

Hearing Zhao Jia say this, Li Xin nodded reassuringly.

"Brother You'an said this, and I was relieved."

While the two of them were talking, the carriage had already arrived at the gate of the Jing'an Hou Mansion, Li Xin took the lead in getting out of the carriage, and Zhao Jia and Zhao Fang also followed.

Li Xin glared at Zhao Fang, the kid, and said angrily: "Xiaoxiao has asked you kid several times during this time, since you are back, go to see her, she is always worried that you will die outside." ”

Speaking of Zhong Xiaoxiao, Zhao Fang immediately nodded and said, "Disciple, let's go." ”

After speaking, he ran into the Jing'an Hou Mansion with a smoke.

Zhao Jia looked at the back of this kid who was far away, and smiled at Li Xin: "Master Hou didn't accept him as a disciple, so he wanted him to be a brother-in-law for you?" ”

Li Xin's face was a little not good-looking, and he spoke slowly.

"It depends on Xiaoxiao's own thoughts, and whether this kid can be worthy of my sister in the future."
