Chapter 467
The crowing of the rooster echoes in the forest, and the sun shines on the window lattice along the eaves of the wooden house.

On the newly made soft couch, the figure wrapped in a densely stitched mattress is sleeping soundly, with a sweet smile on his slightly dark face, smelling the fragrance of Ruotou Ruowu flowers coming from the window lattice, adding a touch of fragrance to this sweet dream.

in sleep.

There is a vaguely festive suona playing, and the yard outside the fence is decorated with lanterns and festoons, and clusters of red silk flowers woven by the villagers are hung, showing a festive appearance.A red sedan chair was parked outside the gate of the courtyard, and the matchmaker with a hemorrhoid on the corner of his mouth smiled and lifted the curtain, leading a slim and graceful figure in a red turban.

'One bow to heaven and earth...kneeling down to ancestors and bowing to parents. "

'Second obeisance to the high hall...'

"Young Master Li! Young Master Li! Wake up quickly."

An urgent and discordant voice came out of the window, abruptly pulling Li Xian out of his sleep, rubbing his eyes in annoyance, Li Xian slowly opened, looked at the veiled curtain, and was a little stunned for a moment.

Dream?
Were you just... dreaming?
"Mr. Li! Wake up! There is another person at the entrance of the village!"

The words that suddenly popped out of the window startled Li Xian, and he turned his head abruptly. Da Zhu's fat face was hanging on the window eaves, beckoning to Li Xian.

"Go and see if it's your friend. If it's not our village, we're going to fight!"

The word "beating someone" came to his ears, and Li Xian woke up suddenly, got up quickly, and put on the coat on the hanger.

"wait for me!"

"Remember! You have to pay me, a good marriage has ruined you!"

While speaking, he put on his outer shirt and walked outside.

creak.

Out of the side-by-side rooms came out a figure in white clothes, straightening her hair, with a bit of surprise on her sleepy face in the morning sun.

"What wedding? What's up early in the morning?"

Looking at the cute and sleepy figure in the cleaning, Li Xian chuckled.

"It's nothing, I'll go take a look at the matter at the entrance of the village."

"Do you want me to help? Can you solve it?"

Axiu walked out from behind Princess Changle, holding her saber, with a provocative expression on her face.

Shaking his collar, Li Xian smashed his chest.

"Men's affairs, you are a woman, don't interfere."

Glancing at the annoyed and frowning figure, Li Xian laughed triumphantly, and walked down the mountain following Da Zhu.

……

foot of the mountain.

Under the banyan tree, at the entrance of the village.

"We are really Mr. Li's friends. We live in the same neighborhood in the imperial city. You see, we all believe in Li. Will I, a minister of the Ministry of War, deceive you?"

Standing among the villagers carrying farm tools, Li Ji tried his best to explain his kindness to them.

Of course, seeing the unmoved faces of these villagers, I couldn't help cursing at the servant of the prestige mansion who came to act as a lobbyist.

He took off the badge of the Ministry of War that he carried with him, and hung it out of everyone's eyes with a hint of flattery.

"This is the badge of the Ministry of War. It is the only one in the Tang Dynasty. If you don't believe me, you can let Lizheng come and have a look. You may have seen similar ones at the county government office. It's just that they are not so crystal clear, but copper. Made of iron."

It was fine not to replace Li Zheng, but after Li Ji mentioned it, everyone remembered that Li Zheng had been bullied by King Wei's servants and was still bedridden.

All of a sudden, many young and strong men breathed heavily from their nostrils, clutching the knives, forks and sticks in their hands, and pointed at them in unison.

The guards beside Li Ji were all men who had seen blood, never had Li Ji persuaded him with such kind words, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he stretched out his hand to his waist.There were also bloody guards who drew their swords and shouted.

"Why, you troublemakers still want to use force?"

"Shangshu of the Ministry of War is also you..."

Snapped.

A loud slap slapped the guard's face, and the unspoken words came to an abrupt end.

"Things that don't have eyes! These are all villagers from Li Xian's hometown, and they are all our own people. Who are you going to use your sword against?"

The guard who covered his face with five fingers and red marks was a little horrified. Seeing Li Ji's angry face, he quickly took away his weapon, bowed his head and cupped his hands towards Li Ji, and repeatedly admitted his mistake.

Li Ji ignored the guard who couldn't understand the wink, pointed to the surrounding villagers, and spoke loudly to the guard.

"You bastard, you can't find the right place even if you admit your mistake!"

He stretched out his hand and didn't hit the smiling face, others were polite and thoughtful, Taigong Lu, who was the most prestigious in the village, was helped by Lizheng's son, waved his hand tremblingly, and slightly slammed on the crutch in his hand.

"Okay, okay, let's all back down."

"Others are not here to find trouble, don't be my guests from Lujiashan, there are no ones who point guns at guests."

During the words, the villagers consciously put down the farm tools in their hands, scattered to sit under the trees, ridges, and stone slabs, and stared blankly at Li Ji to see what tricks he was up to.

Lizheng's son assisted the old man to sit on the chair under the banyan tree. The old man narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the young man kneeling in front of the open ground, illuminated by the morning sun, and pointed at the golden walking stick in his hand.

"This official from the imperial city, what's the matter with this child?"

Seeing that the attitude of the villagers had improved, Li Ji wiped off the sweat that had been sweating from his forehead just now, knowing that the person sitting in front must be someone in charge of the village.With a smile on his face, he walked in front of the old man, bowed slightly and saluted.

"Elder, this is the heir of our Li family. He has been naughty since he was a child, and has caused a lot of trouble."

"Fortunately, Mr. Li took the initiative to teach me a lesson, so I changed my temper a little bit, but unexpectedly, Mr. Li was charged with beating people on Changjie."

"Li came here this time, I really want to thank Mr. Li for his education. The current court has also vindicated this matter, and Mr. Li is here to replace Mr. Li and return to the court."

The reason is clear, and everyone can understand it as soon as they hear it.

People who are originally pure-hearted people have no doubts about this flawed but reasonable matter at all.

But when they heard about returning to Beijing and returning to office, many villagers frowned with complicated expressions.

The breeze blows, the leaves rustle, the birds chirp through the light and shadow, only the whole tree is quiet.

Li Ji saw that the old man's expression became serious for a while, and his surroundings became a little weird, thinking that he had said something wrong again, he rubbed his hands and stood aside embarrassingly, not knowing what he was talking about.

The woman who sat on the handle of the horizontal hoe, and the man beside her who was holding the sickle, lowered their voices.

"I heard that the official is a good person, so he wouldn't lie, right? Mr. Li...are you really going to be transferred back to the capital?"

The man was reluctant, so naturally he didn't want to say it, he patted the hand on his arm angrily, and frowned.The other woman beside her sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.

"Then what can we do? He's from the capital city. At first glance, Mr. Li is not a simple-minded person like us. Gold is precious, so why would he stay in our remote mountain and remote place for so long?"

The villagers don't know how to pretend, and the reluctance in their hearts is displayed on their faces. Some young men who follow Li Xian all day long to hunt, their eyes are already a little red.

"In the city, what's going on in the city?"

"Aren't those people from Wei Wang's mansion good at bullying?"

"Mr. Li went to the city. Who can follow him when the time comes? What if those people come again? What if people with higher official positions than him wrong him again? If such a good person goes to prison, we will I don't even know the message..."

The sensual woman rubbed her sore eye sockets, there were still wet marks on her cheeks, and she sucked her nose when she raised her face.

"It's okay, it's okay, the fallen leaves return to their roots."

"Who doesn't wish for someone to live a good life? In the imperial city, the food and drink are better than those in our village. Mr. Li's life is not bad, that's all."

"This matter..."

There was reluctance in the old voice, and after a pause, the old man sitting under the tree lowered his head slightly and raised his hands.

"You talk to Mr. Li."

"We... we won't stop."

After saying that, the old man turned his back and made a gesture of wiping away his tears.
