The most powerful minister in the world

Chapter 128 Return to West Lake

"The peach blossoms follow the flowing water all day long. Where is the hole in the clear stream?"

In mid-March, the fallen flowers are in full bloom, just like the flowing clouds on a stream. The weeping willows on the riverside sway gently in the wind, and the willow leaves dip in the green lake water to complement each other.

In the misty rain south of the Yangtze River, oil-paper umbrellas rubbed against each other on the blue-grey walls.

The lake reflects the sky, the small bridge flows over the water, and peach blossoms, cherry blossoms, crabapples and magnolias surround it to embellish the spring scenery.

Under the octagonal pavilion with green tiles, the melodious music played. The little fairies from the Miaonv Pavilion stepped on the plush blanket with their bare feet, picked a few cherry blossoms that had climbed in, held them in their mouths, and looked at the handsome young man sitting cross-legged on the couch. .

Jingxi went to the West Lake to have wine and wine again. Now that he had the military power in his hands, he had full confidence. Now he had nothing important to do if he stayed in Dancheng. All the officers and soldiers in Jiangnan Province were being integrated.

He couldn't finish it every ten or eight days, so Jingxi had the free time to come here to enjoy the beautiful scenery and listen to the orioles and swallows in his ears.

The top girls in Miao Nv Pavilion have all been invited out by Jing Xi. Now the flowers are blooming and the weather is refreshing, especially when Jing Xi is the only young man in the world who has an appointment with her, how could they not come out.

If it weren't for the stunningly beautiful maid waiting beside him, they would have gone through all the tricks they used to tease men in elementary school on him.

"Miss Qingqing's piano playing is so good, coupled with the beautiful scenery that the world can appreciate, it makes people intoxicated and rewarded~" Jingxi shook his folding fan lightly and said with an evil smile.

Miss Qingqing was one of the best players at the West Lake and was only ranked below the Four Flowers. Now that the Rose Flower is gone, she is the most promising to succeed her.

The perfect eighth-grade figure, especially those slender jade hands, are simply uncanny workmanship.

"Mr. Jing~ You invited us out and sat here alone with Sister Qingqing playing the piano. You ignored us and didn't say anything. You also brought such a handsome maid with you. Are you afraid that we can't take good care of you?"

Miss Yiyi sat next to Jingxi, touching his face with a hand as white as jade, and she was full of coquettishness.

The curtain cut, and she stood up to leave. Jingxi coughed twice, and she sat down reluctantly, turning her body to the side angrily.

Jingxi smiled and picked up Miss Yiyi and spun her around. As soon as she stopped, she asked Jingxi to eat the rouge from her mouth.

Miss Yiyi's chest weighs four ounces, and it still dangles when it sticks to Jingxi's chest.

"Hey, Mr. Jing, you can't eat the rouge on Miss Yiyi's mouth. If you eat it, it will be wiped clean by the evening."

When everyone heard the news, Feng Zhuoyi stood on the bluestone road with a few boys carrying lunch boxes and wine, joking.

Miss Yiyi smiled, raised her skirt and walked up to him, hooking his arm and walking back.

"Master Feng, you talk so bluffingly. When have you ever seen me eat someone?"

Feng Zhuoyi took the opportunity to touch a handful and said with a smile: "It doesn't eat people, but it can also suffocate people to death."

Miss Yiyi was not shy either, instead she puffed out her chest and looked arrogant.

Feng Zhuoyi then bowed to Jing Xi and said, "Mr. Jing, now is the peak season of flowers. I'm afraid you won't be able to get their essence just by admiring them. Our Jiangnan is not just about beautiful scenery. The delicacies in spring are also one of a kind. I will bring you today Here are some snacks, would you like to try them?"

Jingxi put away the folding fan and sat cross-legged on the couch. The boy brought by Feng Zhuoyi first moved the sandalwood table over and then placed a wooden stool under his buttocks before he sat down.

Feng Zhuoyi waved his hand, and the waiter took out all the snacks in the food box and filled the table.

The gentle sunshine shines on the beautifully covered tablecloth, reflecting the delicious light of various snacks.

"This broad bean with scallion oil is the most indispensable snack in this season. The broad beans in March are big and plump, green and tender. Eating one will ensure that your mouth will be full of fragrance and very satisfying."

"There is also this Qingtuan dumpling. Now that the Qingming Festival is approaching, it can be said that every household is making it. The juice of the first batch of mugwort is mixed with glutinous rice, and then wrapped in bean paste filling or fresh lotus paste. It is not sweet or greasy, and it is full of flavor after one bite. Light and long grassy aroma.”

"And these spring bamboo shoots..."

Jingxi and Lan'er started eating impatiently, especially Lan'er who loved the soft green dough. She chewed it non-stop while holding the fragrant cheeks, eating like a hamster, her cheeks bulging. .

"Eat slowly, this stuff is accumulating in your stomach."

Lan'er rolled her eyes and snorted, stuffed another one into her mouth, moved her cheeks non-stop, and shook her head to show Jingxi.

Feng Zhuoyi laughed and poured more wine for Jingxi. Many girls looked at him and came to Jingxi to ask for a reward with a smile. They happily went to other pavilions to hang out and make fun of him.

As soon as they left, Feng Zhuoyi said with admiration: "Second Young Master, you are really amazing. You have only been back for a few days, and you have already taken all the military power in Jiangnan Road into your own hands! What a good trick, Wang Xishan also It’s a tough fight, now it falls into your hands.”

Jingxi chewed the green broad beans and said with a smile: "Okay, put your delicious fart away. Don't even think about going back with your ten thousand soldiers."

"No way, I just have a lot of fun."

Lian'er muttered vaguely at this time: "Where are Ananda and Gu Chengxiao?"

"Oh~" Feng Zhuoyi took a chopstick of spring bamboo shoots and put it into his mouth, "Ananda has been staying at home, Lao Gu~ is grounded."

Hearing this, Jingxi put down the wine glass from his lips, slapped Butterfly who came over to join in the fun and asked, "Didn't you say that their elders didn't care about him? What kind of trouble was this?"

"Ahem, it's a coincidence that the second young master's family members found out about you taking him to visit a brothel..."

Jingxi turned around and spit out the drink in his mouth, wiped his mouth with the handkerchief handed over by Lian'er and said, "Does it matter? How old are you? Isn't it normal to visit a brothel? Don't you Jiangnan people think this is... A romantic affair?"

"Everyone in the Gu family is weird. Otherwise, we have known each other for so many years. How could I not take him to the fireworks place? Hey~ let's not mention this. When will the second young master plan to take action?"

Seeing Feng Zhuoyi's expectant expression, Jing Xi pretended to be puzzled and said, "What are you doing to suppress the bandits?"

"It goes without saying. When the time comes, I will ask the second young master to take me with him. After all, I am also a seventh-level master and have fought in several tough battles, but this is not what I am talking about."

"Then which one are you talking about?"

Feng Zhuoyi looked around, then moved and said, "I mean, when are you going to punish those corrupt officials?"

"Huh? When did I say that I would take care of your Jiangnan officials?"

Feng Zhuoyi clasped his hands and said, "Stop pretending that you don't want to take care of this matter. Why do you still ask people to check the warehouse account books of various prefectures and counties??"

"how do you know?"

"How do I know? The whole Jiangnan knows it. Just say that the magistrate of the county where I stationed troops went to Dancheng three times and never saw you. Every time he came back, he always looked sad. I heard that a few days ago I even went to the coffin shop that day."

Jingxi's lips twitched and he said, "If you want to be so exaggerated, even if I want to investigate this matter, I won't have all the coffins ready."

"That's the thing. Let me remind you. You can do whatever you want to do to them, but you should think twice before you get involved with these aristocratic families."

Lian'er pursed her lips and stuffed the last green ball into her mouth and said fiercely: "I know, I know, you Jiangnan aristocratic families are all local emperors, and they are not easy to mess with."

"Miss Lian'er, we haven't seen each other for a while, how come you..." Feng Zhuoyi first made a gesture on his chest, and then between his eyebrows. In short, he didn't know how to describe it.

Seeing her face turn red, Feng Zhuoyi, who had been wandering around the flower fields all year round, understood immediately and secretly gave Jing Xi a thumbs up.

Jingxi gave him a glass of wine in return.
