I farmed in ancient times

The bean-sized raindrops hit the face, and the coolness washed away the summer heat.

The followers behind rushed up and handed the cloak they had been wearing to Caesar who was sitting behind Li Xiurong.

The cassia unfolded against the wind, and the brown cloak felt extremely smooth to the touch. I don't know what material it was made of, but the rainwater fell on it and rolled down directly.

Jue Ming pulled the rope of the cloak, spread his arms around Li Xiurong, wrapped his shoulders around his shoulders and tied the cloak for him.

Li Xiurong turned his head and said, "You put it on too, and find a place to rest later."

The wind was blowing against Li Xiurong, and most of the rain was blocked by him, and it was almost impossible to get wet when sitting in the back.Caesar pulled the cloak forward to block Li Xiurong's abdomen.

Li Xiurong was speechless, clutching the reins tightly with one hand, and throwing the cloak behind him with the other, tightly wrapping around Cassia.

Jue Ming whose face was blurred by the cloak: "..."

There was another dull thunder, and the raindrops became more and more dense, and the rainwater rushed down like beads with a broken thread.

Li Xiurong glanced at a fork in the road, his face was happy, he quickly pulled the rein to make the horse turn around, and walked towards the path.

Not far away, a thatched pavilion came into view, and there were several people sheltering from the rain under the pavilion. Li Xiurong rode forward, quickly got off the horse, and stretched out his hand to dismount Cassia Ming.

Caesar stepped on the stirrup carefully, Li Xiurong was afraid that he would fall, so he quickly supported his waist and helped him get off the horse.

With both feet on the ground, Jue Ming felt at ease. Looking around, there was a family of four people on the road in this thatched pavilion, and there were also a few men who were busy with the world.

It is estimated that it happened to come here to meet the rain.

The attendant tied the horse under the tree, and the three of them covered their heads with their sleeves and ran into the thatched pavilion.

The place, which was not spacious at all, seemed even more crowded with the addition of three people.

The people who came a few steps earlier in the pavilion moved their places for those who came to shelter from the rain to stand in the pavilion.

The attendant thanked him politely, Li Xiurong wiped the water off his face with his sleeve, saw Jueming standing by the side of the pavilion, and pulled him into the pavilion.

"Wipe off the water on your body quickly, or you will catch the wind and cold..." Li Xiurong said a few words, "We will leave after the rain stops."

Jueming wiped his face and hair with his sleeve, and looked outside the pavilion.

The rain outside was pouring down without any sign of stopping. The two horses tied under the tree lowered their heads and swung their tails while sniffing the grass on the ground. The rain penetrated the branches and leaves and hit their backs from time to time.

The scenery farther away, due to the heavy rain, looks very blurred.

Fortunately, I walked with Li Xiurong, otherwise I would not be able to find a shelter from the rain halfway, so I could only stand under a tree to shelter from the rain.Jue Ming turned his head to look at Li Xiurong, who was staring seriously at the rain outside, as if he could make a hole in the rain.

The crowd waited for half an hour under the thatched pavilion before the rain showed signs of relieving.Caesar looked up at the sky, the dark clouds slowly receded and the sky cleared up.

The entourage went to lead the horse under the tree, and a few people who had sheltered from the rain came out of the thatched pavilion and continued on their way.

The horses' backs were quite wet from the rain, and the entourage took a dry cloth and wiped them as they walked.

Thinking that Jueming was drenched in the rain just now, Li Xiurong simply put his hands behind his back and sauntered towards the city.

"How long have you been back?" Li Xiurong asked.

Jue Ming stretched out his hands to count the days, and suddenly realized that he had been in the capital for so many days, "It's been seven or eight days."

"You didn't tell me, didn't you take my brother seriously." Li Xiurong said in a sad tone, accusing Jueming: "He knows about Shen Yan! He even invited you to see flowers and have tea!"

Jueming shivered, "No, I was thinking of tidying up the house, and I'll invite you to the house."

"If there's anything left to clean up, how can the yard in Damo Township be messed up!" Li Xiurong snorted and asked, "Where do you live now?"

"Over there in Tianshui Lane." Caesar only knew where it was, but not the exact address.

Hearing Cassia Ming say Tianshui Lane, Li Xiurong's eyes lit up, and his tone was no longer complaining. He quickly reached out and grabbed Cassia Ming's upper arm, "Sweet Water Lane? Which Tianshui Lane?"

——Are there still several Tianshui Alleys?Jueming scratched his head, "I don't know either, I don't recognize the names of the roads, only the roads."

Li Xiurong let go of his hand, "It's okay, I'll find out when I go with you."

After the rain, the temperature in the whole of Kyoto has dropped a lot, and it is very cool to walk on the street.

Li Xiurong introduced the shops that can be seen along the street while walking, and said that there are no delicious small shops on this street, and when Cassia Ming is free, he will take Cassia Ming to Fangshi.

Sending Cassia to the entrance of Tianshui Lane, Li Xiurong slowed down hesitantly.

This place is full of high-ranking ministers, so could it be that Cassia lives here?

"What's the matter?" Jue Ming returned to the door of the house, stood in front of the door and knocked on the door, Li Xiurong followed behind, looking at Jue Ming in disbelief.

The plaque of the Shangshu Mansion has not yet been finished, and Li Xiurong can't see how the master who only taught in Damo Township jumped up and was promoted to a senior official above the third rank.

Unless Mr. Cen is brilliant, a rare genius who is rare in a hundred years, no, wizards don't have such a thing.

The Li family only moved to East Yulin Lane in the past hundred years. If someone can be promoted to a first-rank Beijing official in a short period of time, or has the courage to live in Xiaotianshui Lane, there will definitely be news in the capital.

Either that, Mr. Cen was not a thing in the pool, and now he is just re-entering the officialdom.

Li Xiurong thought of what Weng Weng had said in the past, that he had a friend who had forgotten his years, and now he has also washed away his previous injustice and returned to the court.Could it be that that person is Master Cen?Li Xiurong felt a little dizzy.

The guy who opened the door took Li Xiurong's entourage to the stables, Jue Ming took Li Xiurong to the flower hall and asked him to sit down, the passing guy put down his work with insight and served tea to the guests.

"Hurry up and change your clothes, and we'll talk after you're done." He waved his hand to urge Caesar to change, and Li Xiurong took a sip of tea.

"Then I'll go." After finishing speaking, Jue Ming took his boy and left.

The waiting process was very boring. Li Xiurong got up and walked around the flower hall. The furnishings in the flower hall were very simple. There were two plain vases on a few carved shelves, which were not worth seeing.

Li Xiurong slowly sat on the chair, and suddenly thought, I don't know what the place where Jue Ming lives now looks like, not long after he was next to the chair, Li Xiurong suddenly got up, raised his legs and walked in the direction where Jue Ming left.

Now the Shangshu Mansion is a big place with few people. Li Xiurong walked all the way and saw two people who were scrubbing the road. He caught them and asked where Cassia Ming lived. Li Xiurong went around blindly. found a place.

After confirming that it was the room where Cassia Ming lived, Li Xiurong grabbed the door frame and poked his head inside.

The servant was digging through the cabinet to help Caesia Ming find clothes, when behind the screen, a white T-shirt was thrown onto the screen.

"Have you found it yet? It's in that black box." Cassia Ming's voice came from behind the screen.

The servant was sweating profusely, and he took out each piece to see that they were all wrong.

Li Xiurong tiptoed over and patted him on the shoulder, which made Si'er startled.

Needless to say, Jue Ming must have told him to look for his old summer clothes. Li Xiurong reached out and rummaged through the box, and sure enough, he found a beige coarse cloth round-neck short gown.

Holding the clothes, Li Xiurong reached out and passed them behind the screen.

Picking up the clothes, Jue Ming found that the fingers were fair, but the palm of the hand was calloused. It was clearly not the hand of Sier, so Jue Ming couldn't help calling in doubt: "Li Xiurong?"

Li Xiurong withdrew his hand and shouted: "Didn't you ask for help, you have to call me brother!"

"Brother Li, you've also been caught in the rain, do you want to change into another set of clothes?" Jue Ming shouted, and came out from behind the screen, still buttoning his clothes, half of his chest was exposed in the round-necked short robe.

Li Xiurong's eyes widened, and he forgot to respond for a moment.

Jueming quickly buttoned his clothes, and asked him again: "Do you want to change your clothes?"

Li Xiurong came back to his senses, hooked his head and shook, "No, I'll go back right away, and exchange troubles."

Jue Ming looked him up and down, and seeing that Li Xiurong was indeed not covered by the rain, he asked his servant to put away the dirty clothes, and took Li Xiurong around his small courtyard.

"There were a lot of flowers and plants planted in this small courtyard, but they withered if no one took care of them for a long time. I pulled them all out, and first made the soil tidy, and then planted some practical ones..." Jue Ming walked in front and introduced enthusiastically. Li Xiurong stared at the garden. Looking at the back of his head, he always unconsciously thinks of Shen Yan under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree.

——His naked fox eyes make it very unusual to see Cassia Ming.No, during the Lantern Festival, he glanced at Jueming with that kind of eyes.

——Could it be that he knew that Jueming's father's identity was very unusual, so he used this to make friends!The old fox!He went to find Cassia with a purpose!

When the words came to his lips, Li Xiurong opened his mouth, thinking that he had no evidence to prove Shen Yan's "bad intentions", he fell silent immediately, grabbed a ball of clothes with the hand hanging by his side, and let go.

——I can only find out Shen Yan first, find the evidence that he climbed into Cen's house, and then tell Cassia.

Jueming took Li Xiurong around the courtyard and invited him to stay for dinner.

Unexpectedly, Li Xiurong refused, saying that there was still something to do at home, and he would come to have dinner another day.

Jue Ming sent him to the gate, Li Xiurong jumped up and sat firmly on his horse, and said to Jue Ming, "Come to visit Mr. Cen in person some other day."

After thinking about it, Li Xiurong said again: "There is still food."

Cassia agreed, anyway, the yard has been tidied up, so entertaining friends is not a problem.

Li Xiurong rode his horse to the east, thinking about how to catch Shen Yan's fox tail and see what he was planning for the Cen family.

Thinking while walking, Li Xiurong arrived home before he knew it, and Li Xiurong ate in his own room full of worries, lying on the bed.

There was a lot of activity outside the door, and there was even the sound of smashing things in the front hall.

Li Xiurong raised his head from the quilt, frowning suspiciously.

——What is that woman doing again?

Someone knocked on the door frame, and Wu Yuan's urgent voice came. Li Xiurong sat up and said in a deep voice, "Come in."

Wu Yuan held a roll of paper, "You brought the investigation to a conclusion."

Putting Shen Yan behind for the time being, Li Xiurong opened the roll of paper and read it carefully.

The more he looked, the more serious the expression on Li Xiurong's face became. In the end, his face flushed suddenly, and when he closed his palms, the paper in his hands was crumpled.

"You said, he hid a man...in the mansion?!" Li Xiurong got up, Wu Yuan nodded, "There is arguing in the front hall, probably because of this matter."

Li Xiurong returned the paper plug to Wu Yuan, and hurriedly walked to the front hall. Sure enough, the sound of throwing things was mixed with the voice of the eldest lady scolding.

The author has something to say: Shen Yan: What I plotted against was the Cassia of the Cen family.
