Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Old Father

If it is said that Empress Xie's younger brother Xie Jing is only a middle-aged person or even a middle-class person, this other young man of the Xie family makes Li Xin's eyes shine a little, he can look forward to doing things, and he is neither humble nor arrogant in the face of himself, and he has a basis for advancing and retreating, which is very remarkable.

Li Xin even saw some shadows of his "young" time in Xie Dai.

Therefore, he was not prepared to be too difficult for this young man of the Xie family.

After all, the Xie family didn't sin against him much, but he had been giving the Xie family a look, and the Xie family had been polite to Li Xin until now, even for the sake of Queen Xie, it was not good to reach out and hit the smiling face again.

Xie Dai took Li Xin's note and went to the household department to "withdraw money".

After he left, Li Xin sat alone in the study, closing his eyes and meditating.

During this period of time, many things happened in the capital, large and small, and the source of all this was that Taikang Tianzi looked north at the Yuwen Tribes, implicating many things.

For Li Xin, there is another thing, that is, Li Xing of southern Xinjiang entered Beijing.

The 50,000 Hanzhou Army in Hanzhou Mansion is still Li Xin's biggest hole card, there is no one, if he turns his face with the Son of Heaven one day, the 50,000 Hanzhou Army is the capital to save his life.

This kind of hole card touches his bottom line and does not allow any risk, so Li Xin must find out Li Xing as soon as possible, and then find a way to kill this hidden danger.

But to this day, Li Xing was still not found in the capital, which made him a little upset.

After closing his eyes and seriously going through the recent events in his mind, Li Xin opened his eyes and slowly exhaled.

No matter what, he himself can't be impatient, nor can he panic, with his current size, as long as he doesn't mess with himself, no one can threaten him in a short time.

Thinking of this, Li Xinxin calmed down a lot, he walked out of the study, returned to the backyard, and glanced at his family.

At this time, in the eldest princess's room, the eldest lady Ah Han, who was more than three years old, was sitting next to her brother's cradle obediently, looking at her younger brother with big eyes blinking.

Zhong Xiaoxiao also sat next to the cradle, helping her sister-in-law in confinement to watch the two children.

Li Xin squatted next to Xiao Ah Han with a smile and said with a smile: "What is Ah Han looking at?" ”

The little girl turned around and saw her father, and immediately opened her hands, and Li Xin bent down and hugged her in his arms.

Xiao Ah Han sat in Li Xin's arms, then pointed to his younger brother in the cradle, and said in a milky voice: "Daddy, my brother doesn't seem to be so ugly." ”

Li Xin glanced at his eldest daughter a little helplessly.

This girl, why does she care so much about her brother's appearance......

"I told you, I was ugly when I was born, and it will be fine in a few days."

The little girl nodded heavily, and then said, "Daddy, what have you been busy with these days, and I haven't seen you much." ”

Li Xin touched her head dotingly, and said with a smile: "Daddy has some things to do these days, and when he is done with this, he will accompany Ah Han well, okay?" ”

"Okay."

The father and daughter talked for a while, Li Xin put down the little girl from his arms, went into the house and talked to the eldest princess for a while, and finally stepped forward to go out.

Zhong Xiaoxiao first glanced at Ah Han, and after confirming that the eldest niece was fine, he chased Li Xin a few steps and said, "Brother." ”

Li Xin stopped, glanced back at the little girl who had reached his shoulder, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?" ”

This girl is no longer short, after the living conditions have improved over the years, the previously sallow face has become normal ruddy, and the skin is not particularly fair, but it is not black.

Because he is only fourteen or fifteen years old, his facial features have not fully grown, but he can already see some vague prototypes, although it is unlikely to be a country and a city in the future, but at least she is a beautiful girl in the middle and upper class.

The only fly in the ointment is that this girl still doesn't eat much, so that her figure is still very thin, which makes Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, who has gained a little weight over the years, very envious.

Zhong Xiaoxiao lowered her head a little embarrassed, and finally shook her head: "It's nothing." ”

The Marquis of Jing'an shook his head helplessly, and said, "I want to ask where Zhao Fang went?" ”

Zhao Fang came to the Jing'an Hou Mansion from the southwest with Li Xin five years ago, and since then he has been living in Li Xin's house, calling Li Xin his teacher, but Li Xin has never recognized this student properly.

Five years ago, Zhao Fang will be nine years old, and now he is a fourteen-year-old young man, half a year ago Zhao Fang left from the Jing'an Hou Mansion, and said goodbye to Zhong Xiaoxiao before parting, and there was no news for several months.

Zhong Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth, and finally spoke: "He...... Isn't it dead......

The two children have been together for more than four years since they were ** years old, and it can be said that they grew up together, not to mention whether the two of them have the element of initial love, at least they are friends.

So Xiaoxiao has always been very worried about where Zhao Fang went.

Li Xin shook his head and smiled: "Don't worry, this kid is very clever and can't die." ”

"He's out on business now, count the days, and he should be back in a while."

Zhong Xiaoxiao nodded.

"Brother, I want to go see Sister Cui."

Li Xin hesitated, but nodded and said, "Okay, brother, go and arrange it, and I'll send you to see her in a few days." ”

Xiaoxiao stretched out his hand and pulled Li Xin's sleeve, and said softly, "Thank you, brother." ”

"The family doesn't need to say thank you."

Li Xin smiled and glanced at this girl who could be said to have been raised by himself.

"Got something?"

Zhong Xiaoxiao's face turned red, turned around and went back to the eldest princess's courtyard, and helped the eldest princess take the child.

Li Xin shook his head helplessly, turned around and left.

This girl was raised by him, and at this time, the love was just beginning to open, which made him, an "old father", feel a little uncomfortable.

"According to what I mean, I want to find you someone who is more peaceful, but Zhao Fang ...... that kid"

The Marquis of Jing'an muttered to himself.

"It's obviously not a safe character."

Thinking of this, Li Xin was a little helpless, but he was not very good at restraining others, let alone forcibly interfering in Zhong Xiaoxiao's marriage, and the future would be natural.

Thinking of this, he stepped out of the backyard, got into the pure black carriage of the Jing'an Hou Mansion, and sat in the carriage with his eyes closed and thinking.

It was still Chen Sixteen who was driving, and his only remaining arm firmly held the reins, and then turned back to Li Xin and said, "Where is Master Hou going?" ”

Li Xin was still thinking about Zhao Fang at this time, and after hearing this, he came to his senses and smiled at Chen Sixteen.

"Go to the Ordnance Prison."
