Guangyang County is under the jurisdiction of Shuntian Prefecture.It is mountainous, but it is an important passage to the south of the capital.After Gu Li came to power, he felt that the mountain road was rugged and not suitable for transporting military supplies, so he sent a large number of manpower to open up a new road.The new road is wide and flat, and two taxis can be used at the same time.But the distance is doubled.Gu Ren also ordered the opening of ships in Tianjinwei to connect the inland river and the open sea.Strengthen imperial control.Of course, the economy along the way has also been developed.Convenient for business travel.As an old road in Guangyang County, except for business travelers who are on their way, or passers-by who are in a hurry to take a shortcut, the whole road has become quite depressed.Tea Lao Inns, which could be seen everywhere in the past, have also been abandoned with the reduction of business travel, and there are still a few struggling to maintain them, and there are no previous customers like clouds.Shopkeeper Xie is one of them. He is a local. He has lived here for generations. He has been running an inn since his ancestors. It was once a glorious moment. Because of its good location, it is the last inn in Guangyang County. Business travelers will always stay here. One night, and then enter Guangyang County.The inn is also expanded and expanded, and has the current scale.However, with the opening of new roads and changes in roads, there are fewer and fewer business trips.There were not many people in the inn for a day, and all the hired guys were fired.Shopkeeper Xie was unwilling to close the inn left by his ancestors, so he and his wife reluctantly managed it.There was no staff to clean it up, so Shopkeeper Xie simply locked the other yards, leaving only one yard and the facade on the third floor.Stay here every day, barely make ends meet.The two sons also grew up gradually, unwilling to inherit the ancestral business.They all went to Guangyang County to make a living.Because they are all literate, able to settle accounts, and also become shopkeepers, their lives are good.They also took wives.Only the eldest daughter-in-law gave birth to a girl, both of whom were still young, and shopkeeper Xie did not give birth.The two daughters-in-law are also good, and they want to take the shopkeeper Xie to enjoy the blessings, but the shopkeeper Xie has a stubborn temper, and it is difficult to leave his homeland, so he still guards the inn.Shopkeeper Xie looked at the old plaque of Xie's Inn, and planned to wait for his son to come back in two days and ask him to help clean up the dust.I have old arms and legs, so I can't climb that high.

"Old Xie, there is no more firewood. You can split some for lunch." Mrs. Xie was picked up and raised by shopkeeper Xie.He has a pungent personality since he was a child.He and Shopkeeper Xie were childhood sweethearts.It is also understandable for Shopkeeper Xie to insist on staying in the inn.They grew up here and lived here for more than 50 years, nearly [-] years.Already have feelings.She's not old fashioned, she doesn't stop her sons from pursuing their careers, she doesn't force them to inherit the family business, and wait for them to die.She doesn't care if the two sons are willing to sell or come back.But none of them would have any idea of ​​the house for a day.Someone wanted to buy it before, but she kicked it out.Her old couple have guarded the house all their lives.

"Okay, I'll go chop firewood." The firewood at home is all sent by poor people in the nearby villages, and it's cheap and doesn't cost much.Shopkeeper Xie chops firewood for exercise every day.The firewood is placed outside the gate, in the side shed.Shopkeeper Xie took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, and started splitting firewood.Mrs. Xie went back to the house to clean up the table. Lunch was approaching. In case there were guests for dinner, they should be cleaned up in advance.After wiping the table, take a basin, take a small wooden stool to the door to choose vegetables, and chat with shopkeeper Xie who is working.

"I got a letter from the second child in the city. The second daughter-in-law has recently become pregnant, just two months old. One day I will take two old hens to have a look."

"It's time to go. I don't know if it's a boy or a girl?" Shopkeeper Xie was very happy.This is a great joy.

"Both men and women are fine, anyway, they are young. There will be another one in two years."

The two of them chatted with each other about homework.With a smile on his face.

Shopkeeper Xie stopped to rest, raised his head and set up an awning to look into the distance, and there were two carriages approaching vaguely in the distance.Next to the carriage, there were two horsemen, who seemed to be guards.Shopkeeper Xie is also someone who has eaten and seen it.It is obvious at a glance that people are not simple.Although the carriage looks plain.The material used is particular, the material used for this carriage can buy ten carriages from Yuanwai's family in the city.The two men on horseback were also dressed in short Tsing Yi clothes.But the horse that sat down was a good BMW.Soma has a formula.First look at a piece of skin, then look at the four hooves, feel the notch, and the shoulders are generally even.The horse's fur was shiny and its surface was black.With a flick of the neck, the fur inside turned red.The body is tubular, narrow in the chest, long in the back, shallow in ribcage, long but not prominent in the phalanges, and slightly narrower in the rear but muscular.Runs fast and has good stamina.It looks like a good Dawan horse.This kind of fine Dawan horse cannot be bought with money.Generally, tribute is paid to the court and kept as military supplies.Generally outsiders really don't recognize it.One of the shopkeepers of Lao Xie became a school captain when he was young.Come to drink with the old shopkeeper, Xie shopkeeper met several times when he was a child.So I know it.I still remember that uncle said.His horse wasn't the best.The more elegant the shape.The more beautiful the coat color, the better.I didn't expect to see him today.

The rider has come to the front, he is a serious boy, he should frown often, there is a thin line of his name between his brows.

"Shopkeeper, my son is resting here today. Is there a separate yard?"

"Yes. There is a separate yard at the back where you can rest." Shopkeeper Xie hurried over to greet him.

Two carriages also arrived.

Shopkeeper Xie looked up to see the man riding a horse coming from behind.That's great.Whole body red short hair.The sun shines brightly like blood.The BMW of BMWs.The person on the horse was dressed in black.White jade seven-treasure belt.Wearing a white jade crown.A face is exquisitely carved.Sharp edges and corners, sword eyebrows and star eyes.It was the aggressive beauty of a man.He just rode on the horse casually, shopkeeper Xie felt ashamed of himself, like an ant.The man didn't look at him at all.Instead, he turned his head and spoke to the carriage behind him.

"We're staying here today. Rest overnight and head into town tomorrow morning."

"Yeah!" A gentle voice came from the carriage.It sounds like a woman.It's just laziness in his tone.Two young men came out of the carriage in front, dressed in extraordinary clothes, with a reserved expression and lowered heads. Shopkeeper Xie had already seen that they were just ordinary peasants, no different from young people in the village.So he turned to look at the carriage behind him.The man who just rode a horse also asked there.It should be family members.

The carriage stopped behind.A man dressed as a servant jumped down, full of youthful vigor.With a cheerful smile on his face.Dressed as a servant, but without the slightest timidity of a servant, he looks like someone's young master.Muttering in his mouth.

"It's finally here. I'm suffocated on this journey. The young master came out to get some air."

Two well-dressed servant girls came down first.A lift curtain, and a well-placed dismounting stool.Respectfully waiting for the people in the carriage to come down.A well-educated servant should look like a servant.Shopkeeper Xie stretched his neck curiously.Mrs. Xie was very curious.Do you think that the female family member is so ostentatious, is it a young master?

The figure of a young man broke into the eyes of the old couple.The two gasped in unison.I have never seen such a fresh and refined beauty. Isn't this the fairy descending from the world?The young man was well-dressed, wearing a white cloud brocade uniform.Eight treasures jade belt around the waist.He wears a white jade prince's helmet with hair inlaid with treasure on his head, and his eyebrows are tied with a cloud of white jade to wipe his forehead.A beautiful face looked at you without any expression.It seems that there is nothing in this world that is dispensable to him.Can't move him a little emotionally.It's as if he doesn't belong to this world at all, and will be dissipated between heaven and earth with a gust of wind.People desperately want to catch.But can't catch it.It is a fairy that fell into the mortal world, and mortals do not deserve to have it.

"I'll help you." One sentence broke the weird atmosphere.

Su Jing in the car rolled his eyes indecently. "No, I'm not a girl." She lifted her clothes and put them down.

In an instant, his expression became lively.The breath of world-weariness disappeared completely.Shopkeeper Xie had the feeling that he could keep the person in front of him with his hand.He just raised his hand.Gu Liang glanced over.Shopkeeper Xie quickly withdrew his hand.That glance reads brightly, you stretch out again, and your hand will be chopped off for you.Shopkeeper Xie really has no intention of coveting.Otherwise, Gu Liang wouldn't just give him a warning look.

"The shopkeeper took us to the room." Gu Quan said.It can also be regarded as a step down for shopkeeper Xie.

"This way." Shopkeeper Xie led the way.

Su Jing walked in while looking at the surrounding environment.It's a very simple house, and it must have been built with care.Good material used.Although a bit old, it is not damaged.It seems that it is usually well protected.

Come to the courtyard behind.Su Jing was still arranged in the master bedroom.Geng Zhi took Yue Xue's two servant girls to change the bedding.cup.Su Jing stood in the yard waiting not to make trouble.Shopkeeper Xie watched from the side, also secretly speechless.With such particularity, this son must be either rich or expensive.

The truly honorable Prince Jing sat directly on the steps beside him.Ask Han Yi a question.

"Is your village far from here?"

"It's not far. It's just a few miles around the mountain." Han Yi let go when he returned to his hometown.Speaking is also a lot easier. "Our place is next to a big mountain. The village is also small. There are a total of thirty or so households. There is little land. Most of them are hunters, relying on the mountain to eat the mountain."

"When I enter the city tomorrow and settle down, I will go to your village to see." Gu Liang talked about the itinerary, then turned his head and called Geng Zhi. "Gengzhi, pour me a cup of tea, I'm thirsty."

Yuexue girl ran over and gave Gu Liang a water bag. "We're going to boil water in a while, and I'll make do with it first."

"Ah Jing, would you like a sip?" Gu Liang asked Su Jing while holding up the water bag after drinking the water.

"No. I'm not thirsty."

"Young Master, do you want to eat anything? It's already noon." Shopkeeper Xie couldn't help at all.

"What delicious food do you have here?" Su Jing was a little interested when he said eating.

"Simple stir-fried vegetables, cornmeal. The business of the small shop is small, and there is nothing to entertain the distinguished guests. My mother-in-law is best at stewed fish. The taste is amazing. Do you want to try it?" Shopkeeper Xie didn't prepare any food. , I really like to eat fish, and the fish cooked by my wife is also delicious. This morning, the village sent a carp weighing five catties. The shopkeeper Xie planned to eat it at night. a meal.

"Okay, just eat fish." Su Jing made a final decision.Shopkeeper Xie happily agreed and ran to prepare dinner with his wife.

"Does he have a problem?" Gu Liang asked suspiciously.

"I can't see it, but you can try it. Even if there is no problem, you should be an insider. This shopkeeper Xie is not as simple as it seems on the surface." Su Jing answered Gu Liang with a smile indifferently.

On the other hand, shopkeeper Xie ran to the kitchen and asked his wife to cook.

"Use japonica rice, I guess the nobles can't get used to our corn buns."

"The head of the family, what do you think this nobleman is here for? It's not easy to look at his identity." Mrs. Xie was a little worried.

"What does he do? Let's just do our own thing." Shopkeeper Xie reminded his wife not to think too much.In their inn are the guests.
