Time flies, after nearly five months of absence, Li Xu finally returned to the capital.

In late autumn, the capital is extremely cold, and the Li Mansion has already been lit with fire dragons.

Lin Yixuan received the news of his son. As early as three days ago, he started to make arrangements, cleaned up the yard, and looked forward to the door all day long.

On the day of returning to the city, the family waited at the door early.

Li Xu grew taller, thinner, darker, and looked calmer.

Lin Yixuan felt sorry for his son, as soon as he saw Li Xu, he quickly pulled him to look him over carefully, and kept asking him how he was.

Li Xu responded with a smile, he was always patient with his father's concern.

Li Yaonan was very satisfied. Sure enough, reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. When his son went out alone, he seemed to have settled down, appeared more mature, and acted more methodically.

"Brother ----" Li Chen waved happily, his big eyes curved into crescent moons.

"Brother! I miss you so much." Not to be outdone, Li Xi opened his arms in a funny way, and flew towards him with a bear hug.

The corners of Li Xu's lips raised, he glanced at him in disgust, and hurriedly dodged away.

Li Xi wasted no time, turning his head to accuse his elder brother with resentful eyes.

Li Xu was in a great mood. After days of exhaustion, all his exhaustion was instantly swept away the moment he saw his relatives, leaving only joy and warmth in his heart.He patted his younger brother's head and said with a smile, "Let's go."

Li Xi touched his head dissatisfied, and complained: "Brother, you can't touch a man's head."

Li Xu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he sneered, looked him up and down, opened his mouth and said, "You don't even have full hair, you're still a man, who did you learn this from?"

Lin Yixuan couldn't help laughing when he heard his son muttering, Xu'er's hair has grown, so he doesn't know when he can bring him a daughter-in-law.

Li Xi was not happy, he clenched his fists and waved his chin, and said proudly: "Brother, I am one against five, and I am invincible among my peers. No one will praise me as a real man. We are tough guys. Even my uncle wants me to go for it." In the army."

Li Xu was silent for a while, and asked, "What are your plans?"

Li Xi shook his head like a drum: "Don't go, I'm exhausted."

Li Chen bounced over and interjected: "Second brother said he likes to walk sideways, and there are too many rules in the army, so he won't do it."

Li Xu's heart relaxes and his mood warms up. The Li family is extremely glorious now. His father is the emperor's teacher, and he is the leader. He may win the first prize in the next year. He and his father have already gained the upper hand in the career of civil servants. If the younger brother wants to join the army, the royal It must not be tolerated.

Li Xi giggled, his bright smile contained no trace of gloom. He understood what his eldest brother was thinking, and he also understood the concerns of the royal family. In fact, he preferred to be a second-generation ancestor rather than an official. He knew his own temperament very well. I can't stand the twists and turns of the officialdom, if I accidentally don't hold back, it's a minor matter for him to beat up the Shangguan, but it's a major problem if he ruins the emperor's layout. Didn't my father and elder brother often say that if you can't bear it a little, you can make a big mess.

Li Xu glared at him angrily, walking sideways like a crab.

Li Chen blinked, looked at the second brother obediently, and said with a sweet smile: "I'm telling the truth."

Well, the little overlord has lost his temper, and the little brother is well-behaved and cute. He didn't even have time to feel sorry for him, so he couldn't bear to blame him. It must have been the little brother's slip of the tongue just now, and he definitely didn't do it on purpose.

"Little scoundrel." Li Xi rolled his eyes, rubbed his little brother's hair vigorously, smiled, and quickly dodged away.

"Ah!" Li Chen exclaimed, "I hate it, don't run away."

The two brothers laughed and chased after each other, and the yard was full of laughter.

Li Xu watched his two younger brothers play and fight, and couldn't help laughing, and his mood seemed to become high with their laughter.Only in this place, in front of his relatives, can he relax himself unscrupulously. After leaving home, he realizes how much he misses home!

Back in the main courtyard, the heating in the room was blowing in, Li Xi and Li Chen stopped fighting, and sat obediently beside the elder brother, asking about the affairs of the elder brother in Suzhou.

Li Xu reported the good news but not the bad news. He only said that his stay in Suzhou was going well, and his family members took good care of him, but he didn't mention Li Tai'an's visit, nor did he mention that Ma Yulian had messed up at the door. Of course, he also kept silent about Fu Qianhua carry.

Lin Yixuan looked at his son gently, feeling a little sour in his heart. The son has become sensible and grown up, and he doesn't like to rely on his parents anymore. He has to fight everything by himself. How can he and her husband not know what happened in Suzhou, Xu'er Deliberately hiding it from them made him both gratified and uncomfortable, as if his son was about to spread his wings and fly away.

In fact, Lin Yixuan's premonition was correct. Li Xu was indeed about to fly away. The young eagle had to learn to fly when it grew up. his home.

In the next few months, Li Xu paid close attention to his homework, after the new year, it will be the spring of the next year.

Unsurprisingly, Li Xu got a number one scholar. His father has no dogs. He is the youngest number one scholar since the founding of the Jin Dynasty. He has a good family background, good knowledge, good looks and a better future.

The threshold of Li's Mansion was breached again by all parties, Li Xu's social status skyrocketed, and Lin Yixuan politely rejected all the people who came to propose marriage.Some people are disappointed, some are angry, and some are elated and plan to watch a play. The Li family doesn’t like any of the daughters of good families in Beijing. When Li Xu is a few years older, all the good girls will be picked away by others. Let’s see what he can find. Like, I'm afraid it's too late to regret.

Regarding these, Li Xu has never paid much attention to this, not to mention that he has no intention of getting married now, even if he did, he would still want to find someone who is like him, the noble girls in Beijing are too spoiled, and to be honest, he finds it difficult to serve her.

After the Qionglin banquet, Li Xu was assigned to work in the Hanlin Academy, with Li Yaonan backing him, his life in the Imperial Academy went smoothly, so smooth that it made him feel irritable. All his grades and assessments were based on his father's face If this continues, he won't get any experience at all.

Compared with Li Xu's troubles, Li Yaonan sighed in his heart, thinking that when he entered the Hanlin Academy, he would be ignored by cats and dogs everywhere, otherwise he would not end up with the name of a ghost, who said that the Hanlin Academy It is the Qingshui Yamen. Whoever said that the literati in the Imperial Academy are noble, they have not met the right person, just like corrupt officials love money, literati love feathers, the more literati, the more they like arty, the more they like noble reputation, they can look down on nobles, they They feel that they are very noble, and they regard money as dung, but who said that they will not flatter the great Confucians of the current dynasty, can get the advice of the great Confucianism, can get the appreciation of the great Confucianism, that is a very dignified thing, and the literati like it .

After two years of suffering, Li Xu begged the emperor several times, and finally, with his insistence, he got the devolution document and went to Guangdong to be the magistrate.

Lin Yixuan was so angry that his heart ached, he only scolded the brat for being too cruel, for actually going to such a far place.

However, no matter how sad, no matter how uncomfortable, when Li Xu was about to leave, Lin Yixuan still said good-bye to him carefully, and carefully made some salutes for him, lest he be alone outside, cold, hungry, or sick, so what to do.

Li Yaonan didn't have any opinion on his son's choice. It's good for Xu'er to have his own ideas. Delegating to local officials is a good experience. It can not only broaden his horizons, but also learn more about the hardships of the people's livelihood. His official career is very useful, Li Yaonan does not want his son to live in an ivory tower.

Of course, he will not forget the things that should be prepared. After all, being a parent, although he hopes that his son will be tempered, he does not want his son to suffer a real disadvantage. Immediately, Li Yaonan selected three from the subordinates who depended on him. Staff, two clerks, one steward, and [-] guards to protect his son's safety, so that when he arrives at the place, he will not have enough people in his hands. You know, these are all his experience. There will be a few thorns, and if you want to deal with them, apart from slowly trying to figure them out, you can only suppress them with force and prepare more people to be prepared.

After Xu'er left, she would definitely not be able to come back in a few years. The couple checked the preparations again and again until Li Yaonan felt that there were no omissions, and then released his son and allowed him to set off on the road.

Li Xu was very moved by his father's intentions, but seeing such a big battle, he couldn't help feeling helpless in his heart.

He went to Guangdong to take office, and it wasn't that his family moved. In addition to the 36 people his father gave him, his father also prepared more than [-] servants to serve him. Among them, there were three cooks, four servants, and Maids, mothers-in-law, stewards, shopkeepers... Before my family arrived in Guangdong, the father of the shop had already prepared a lot, so he didn't know what to do.

Before leaving, Lin Yixuan exhorted and complained, his son's birthday was over, his daughter-in-law hadn't been seen yet, and the brat was about to leave home, Lin Yixuan really regretted it to death, if he had known, he should have given his son first The daughter-in-law is looking for it.

Li Xu has nothing but helplessness about this. He is now full of ambitions and plans to make some achievements, so he has no mood to care about his children's personal relationships. He can only say sorry for his father's expectations.

At this time, none of them thought that Li Xu's daughter-in-law hadn't been seen yet, and the bully Li Xi had found his sweetheart.

Here's the thing.

Less than a year after Li Xu left, his title as the number one talented scholar in the capital was taken over by Prince Fu's son.

Li Xi couldn't be reconciled, how could he be convinced, in his mind, the elder brother was the most outstanding, and no one else was worthy of lifting the elder brother's shoes, so what about Prince Fu's son, King Fu himself is a bastard, how can his son be good? where to go.

Hearing that others were full of praise for King Fu's succession, the more Li Xi listened, the more angry he became.

So, the little overlord yelled and greeted a group of second generation ancestors, and found out the whereabouts of Prince Fu's son, a group of people came aggressively, what are they doing?

---fight!

Others are afraid of King Fu, but he will not. Although King Fu is a relative of the emperor, he does not have any position in him, and his power is not as great as that of his father. Besides, I heard that Prince Fu's mansion is very chaotic, and Prince Fu's son is not favored. Will King Fu Not necessarily backing him up.

Li Xi and his party were domineering and domineering, they left in a vicious manner, and came back with bruised noses and swollen faces.

Prince Fu lived up to his name, he was indeed gentle and martial, originally he wanted to fight in groups, but he was agitated by a few words, and Li Xi went into battle alone, fighting him alone.

A group of second-generation ancestors were clapping and shouting, watching with gusto.

Li Xi was so angry that his teeth itched, and he was merciless in his strikes. However, Prince Fu is not a vegetarian. Although his explosive power is not as strong as Li Xi's, he has extremely rich combat experience. Didn't take advantage of anything.

After one round, both of them were injured.

Li Xi went back to the house cursing, only saying that Prince Fu is a cunning son, and he will definitely find the place back someday.

He was annoyed, and Prince Fu was even more annoyed. He somehow provoked a bully. He was provoking someone, and he couldn't be more depressed.

Between the two, the enmity ended like this.

Li Xi had been recovering from his injuries for a few days, and once the injuries on his face healed, he regained his handsome, handsome and unrestrained face. Li Xi couldn't wait, and started to trouble Prince Fu again.

On the same day, Li Xi returned home again with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

This kind of life lasted for more than half a year, and the whole Li Mansion knew that the second young master of his family had a deep hatred for Prince Fu's son.

Lin Yixuan felt sorry for his son at first, but later he became accustomed to it.

For this, Li Yaonan laughed it off, thinking it was just a kid's joke, anyway, Xi'er has thick skin and is resistant to falls and beatings, so it's good for someone to teach him a lesson, so that this kid doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth.

Li Xi fought more and more courageously, and the number of times of injuries became less and less, and his force value gradually increased. In just half a year, he went from being evenly matched to being quite dominant in the fight.

When he is fine, the prince Fu will be unlucky, he grits his teeth with hatred, he is so annoying to Li Xi, can't afford to offend him, can't he just hide?

However, even if he is hiding in the mountain depression, Li Xi has the ability to find him out, this day is really unbearable.
