Chapter Seventy-Five: Two Choices
Li Xin's few words made this young man from the Li family of Zhao County and once named "Li Chengye" stunned in place.
He was born in the world, he was smart since he was a child, and he knew some people early on, when he was only nine years old, when he was sent to Li Xin by his grandfather Li Shidao, he didn't even cry, he just followed Li Xin obediently, for five years, one teacher after another.
Even if Li Xin never agreed to him, he has always been so cheeky and screaming.
In fact, how can there be a shameless person, especially a person like Zhao Fang, who was born in a thousand-year-old family, who is more faceless than ordinary people, he can follow Li Xin in vain, just to hug the thickest thigh in front of him.
After all, the Li family of Zhaojun was designated as a thief by the imperial court, except for Li Xin, I am afraid that there is no second person in the whole world who dares to take him in, and the Marquis of Jing'an in front of him is already one of the thighs in the world, and there is no reason not to hold it.
As for the pair of Zhong Xiaoxiao......
To be honest, the gap between him and Zhong Xiaoxiao is still very large, when he was nine years old, his knowledge has surpassed that of ordinary Xiucai, and now with his knowledge, it should not be difficult to spend a few years pondering the scientific examination and studying the works of the chief examiner.
And Zhong Xiaoxiao grew up with a charcoal seller since she was a child, even if Li Xin has always taught her to read and write, and now she can be regarded as a scholar, but the two of them are far from each other in terms of education level and scheming city.
When Zhao Fang faced Zhong Xiaoxiao, he could even see her thoughts clearly at a glance.
The most important thing is that although this sister who has taken care of him for five years is not ugly, she is very good-looking... It doesn't count.
But Zhao Fang still likes her somewhat.
Maybe it's because of the care she has taken care of for five years, or maybe it's because she is the sister-in-law of Jing'an Hou Li Xin.
No matter what the reason is, the love between him and Zhong Xiaoxiao is not fake.
Thinking of this, the young man lowered his head and said to Li Xin: "Teacher, I don't know..."
"In the past five years, the little lady has taken a lot of care of me, and I have always regarded her as a sister in the past few years...... I do have some different thoughts, but as for the cause, I don't understand. ”
He took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said: "What the teacher said is right, I do know that the teacher loves the little lady very much, and when I dreamed back at midnight, I also had this thought, but to say that I was close to the little lady because of this, it is to have wronged me." ”
"Five years ago, I was nine years old, and I couldn't imagine all these twists and turns."
Li Xin glanced at him quietly.
Then put his hands in his sleeves and slowly spoke: "Since you can't figure it out yourself, then I'll give you time to think." ”
"It's about a month or two to go to Jimen Pass, you don't have to do anything else along the way, just think about it, think about it, and come and talk to me."
The Marquis of Jing'an walked towards the gate of the mansion.
"If you don't like her, I will officially accept you as a student, so that you are a generation behind her, and you will not be able to become a husband and wife, at most I will be this wicked person."
Speaking of this, Li Xin paused.
"If you really have affection for her, then don't mention this master-apprentice title in the future, or that sentence, I will also help you if I should help you."
"It's up to you how you choose."
Li Xin's face was expressionless.
"But if you choose, you choose, and if you choose, you can't regret it."
He stopped and glanced back at the young man.
"You should know that I'm not a good old man."
Hearing this, Zhao Anxin shuddered.
He had been in the southwest for two or three years, and although he was young at that time, he had heard some news about the war in the southwest, and he knew very well that the Marquis of Jing'an, who looked harmless to humans and animals, was in the southwest back then......
Killed tens of thousands!
"Of course, if you are confident that you can overpower me in the future, or I will be helpless with you in the future, it doesn't matter what you choose at this time."
After saying this, Li Xin stopped paying attention to Zhao Fang and walked forward by himself.
The young man gritted his teeth, took two steps to follow Li Xin, and said in a low voice.
"I'm on the road, I'll think it through......"
"But you have to believe me, no matter what I think, but I ...... to the little lady No malice. ”
Li Xin walked on his own as if he hadn't heard what he said.
Soon, the group arrived at the door of the Jing'an Hou Mansion, the little grandfather Ye Mao had already covered his armor, and he also waited at the door with fifty Ye family generals, and after seeing Li Xin coming, the little grandfather hurriedly stepped forward and hugged his fists and said: "Uncle Shi." ”
Li Xin greeted him, looked at his bright appearance in armor, and said with a smile: "I haven't arrived at Jimen Pass yet, why are you dressed like this, it's summer at this time, and it's very hot." ”
Ye Mao glanced at Li Xin and said in a low voice: "Uncle Shi, the imperial court may send someone to see us off at the east gate later, so we have to be more formal......"
If he leads the army to go on the expedition, then not only will the imperial court send someone to send him, theoretically the emperor and hundreds of civil and military officials will come to send it, but Li Xin is not going to the expedition this time, he just went to the north with Ye Mao to take up his post, at most, plus escorting the military supplies, the imperial court should not have any big people to send.
Li Xin, who was wearing a light robe, smiled helplessly at Ye Mao.
"No matter, I won't cover my armor anyway, it's a hot day, just to make a show, it's not worth it."
As he spoke, Li Xin spoke in a deep voice.
"Let's go, let's go."
As he spoke, he turned over and got on the ink horse led by Zhao Fang, and Ye Mao also followed on the horse, and a group of more than 100 people walked along Desheng Avenue and roared towards the east gate of the capital.
Along the way, there were people who recognized the chess flag of the Ye family and the Jing'an Hou Mansion, and they also gathered around to watch, of course, most people looked at the Ye Ziqi, after all, in terms of reputation, the Ye family is still much bigger than Li Xin's Jing'an Hou Mansion.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the east gate of the capital.
At the gate of the east gate of the capital, a thousand forbidden troops have been assembled, and dozens of truckloads of materials have been loaded by the Treasury Department of the Ministry of War, as well as the food and grass on the road of the group, which are full.
It's just that the officials of the military department who came to deliver the things didn't look very good.
As soon as Li Xin and the others left the east gate, they saw a red-clothed eunuch waiting at the gate of the east gate, Li Xin dismounted, walked to the eunuch, and said with a smile: "Early in the morning, why is Gonggong Xiao here, does Your Majesty have a will?" ”
Xiao Zheng hurriedly saluted Li Xin and Ye Mao, making the last general bow his head deeply.
"There is no will, but there are people on the city tower to see off Hou Ye Li, please Hou Ye Li go up to the city tower to talk about it."
Xiao Zheng, the big eunuch, is here to spread the word, so you don't even have to guess who the person who comes, Li Xin turned to Ye Mao and said, "You go and sort out the formation, let the brothers get ready to go, and when I come down from the city tower, I will set off immediately." ”
Ye Mao hugged his fists at Li Xin and said, "The last general will go here." ”
Because of family education, the little grandfather is a very military person, and in the army, he will always be called a public office, and there will be no private title.
Even when facing his father Ye Ming, this is the case.
With that, he turned and walked away.
And Li Xin followed Xiao Zheng up to the city tower.
Above the city tower, a middle-aged man dressed in purple was standing on the edge of the city wall looking at the thousand soldiers below, and only after Li Xin came up did he turn around and smile.
"My Zhenbei general, I can be regarded as coming."
