"Yuxi, do you want to enter the city with me today? We can go to Uncle Qin's house and visit Aunt Qin."
In the courtyard, a man and a woman were alone. It was very ambiguous. Li Zexuan really wanted to spend the rest of his life quietly with Han Yuxi.
Han Yuxi looked at Li Zexuan, who was sitting on the swing beside her. She felt a little amused. This swing was tied to the Iron Egg by Han Lizheng in the past. Now, Li Zexuan was sitting on it to play. Her young master was sometimes mature and steady, but sometimes he was like a child.
Hearing Li Zexuan's words, Han Yuxi thought for a while and replied, "Young Master, when you go back today, it will definitely be late. If I go, I probably won't be able to make it back in time, so I'll go tomorrow."
Li Zexuan subconsciously wanted to say, "If you can't go back, then stay at my house." However, he was afraid that he would offend the beauty, so he could only swallow the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
"Then you have to be careful when you go alone tomorrow. Or you can go with the farmer who is going to the market tomorrow."
Li Zexuan thought for a while and still instructed. He still had no clue about the martial arts expert who stole the wine that Han Lizheng mentioned last time. He always felt that the person's goal was not that simple.
Han Yuxi's heart warmed. She replied softly, "Young Master, don't worry. Yuxi will be careful."
Li Zexuan's heart was slightly relieved. He looked up at Han Yuxi, who was holding the rope of the swing. Suddenly, his childish heart was awakened. He smiled and said,
"Yuxi, sit on top. I'll help you on the swing."
Han Yuxi frowned and said, "Young Master, this is for children."
"Who said that this thing can only be played by children? Didn't you see that I played with it just now?"
Han Yuxi was speechless.
"Come up quickly. If you don't come up, I'll carry you up!" Li Zexuan was a little unrestrained at this moment.
"Don't, I'll go up myself …"
.....
"Ah, Young Master, put me down quickly. It's too high!"
Han Yuxi closed her eyes and grabbed the rope tightly with both hands as she shouted.
"Don't worry, I'll protect you. You won't fall!"
"No, put me down."
"Don't, Yuxi, don't you think it's very interesting? Don't be afraid. With my martial arts, even if you fall, I can catch you. "
.....
After a while, Han Yuxi finally adapted to this height. She stopped screaming and gradually quietened down.
Under the setting sun, a flower-like young girl sat on a swing. Behind her, a handsome man was slowly pushing the swing. Both of them were silently enjoying this rare tranquility and warmth.
"Cough cough!"
Qin Qiong felt that he had returned late enough, but he did not expect to see something that he should not have seen. He hurriedly coughed twice to remind them that someone had come.
Han Yuxi was like a frightened rabbit. She hurriedly grabbed Li Zexuan's hand and signaled him to stop pushing. Then, Han Yuxi got off the swing.
Li Zexuan only felt a burst of warmth and smoothness in his hand, and he couldn't help but stop. Then, the wonderful touch disappeared, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of loss.
"Godfather, you're back!"
Han Yuxi clenched her hands and greeted Qin Qiong like a child who had done something wrong.
"Yes, I'm back."
Qin Qiong naturally pretended that he didn't see anything and replied.
"Uncle Qin, how was your tour of the manor?"
Li Zexuan spoke to hide his awkwardness.
When Qin Qiong heard this, he stroked his beard and said half-jokingly, "This old man discovered that the villagers of this Han Manor are clearly much wealthier than the people in other manors. Xiao Xuan, you're a good landlord!"
Li Zexuan chuckled and said, "You're flattering me."
Qin Qiong wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he said, "Little Xuan, come out with me. I have something to ask you."
With that, he walked out of the courtyard, leaving Li Zexuan with his back.
Li Zexuan looked at Han Yuxi and said, "Yuxi, I'm going out for a while. Go and see if Uncle Han and Uncle Cheng are awake."
Han Yuxi nodded. At the same time, she was a little nervous. She didn't know what her godfather wanted to say to Li Zexuan. Could it be that he and she … Aiya, please don't be like that.
Han Yuxi blushed at the thought of this and hurried into the house.
.....
Outside the courtyard.
Qin Qiong stood under a tree with his hands behind his back, waiting for Li Zexuan to come over.
"Uncle Qin, why are you looking for me?"
Qin Qiong turned around and looked at Li Zexuan. He asked with a serious face, "Little Xuan, tell me the truth. Why are you raising so many chickens?"
Li Zexuan said curiously, "Uncle Qin, didn't I already say it at the morning court? You were there too. "
Qin Qiong shook his head and said, "I believed you before, but I went to the chicken farm in the back mountain of the Han Manor today. I don't believe your excuses now. Tell me the truth!"
Li Zexuan asked curiously, "Why?"
Qin Qiong sneered, "Hmph, you're still lying to me! I just went up the mountain to take a look. Every chicken farm on the mountain has a person training the chickens. If it's just because of the two reasons you mentioned before, why do you have to do this? What are you hiding? Can you tell me? "
Li Zexuan suddenly understood. So this was the problem. However, he really couldn't tell anyone about the locust plague. Otherwise, there would be trouble. He was in a dilemma.
"Uh, Uncle Qin, you're right. This matter is indeed not that simple. However, please forgive me for not being able to tell you the real reason."
Li Zexuan gritted his teeth.
Qin Qiong heard this and quickly stepped forward. He grabbed Li Zexuan's arm and said anxiously, "What can't you tell me? I'm not a talkative person. Don't you trust me? "
Li Zexuan hurriedly waved his hand and explained, "It's not like that. Uncle Qin, don't misunderstand. I definitely don't mean that. It's just that I really can't tell anyone about this. Uncle, please don't make things difficult for me. "
Qin Qiong released his hand and turned around. He looked at the setting sun and sighed.
"Forget it, I won't force you. However, I feel that something big is going to happen behind this. This old man joined the army when he was young, and after many twists and turns, he finally joined the Great Tang. After hundreds of battles, the world was finally at peace. Even if this old man fell ill, this old man has no regrets, because the Han people can finally settle down and recuperate.
Little Xuan, you're the disciple of an immortal. You may not know the suffering of the human world. A few years ago, the world was in chaos and the Central Plains was empty. People's lives were worse than dogs. I really can't bear to see the people suffer. Because the people's suffering is the shame of us Tang Empire soldiers. We didn't protect them well. "
Qin Qiong turned around and stared into Li Zexuan's eyes.
He said seriously, "I've heard that Spiritual Master Ling Xu is one of the immortals. He has great wisdom and ability. As his disciple, you must know many things. I don't care what you're hiding, but I hope that before you do anything, you can consider the people's lives. The people have suffered enough. "
