Chapter 171 Huan Ji's plan

On the way to Wuwei County, Xiao Bi kept thinking about Huan Yu's trip to Jin Kingdom, somewhat absent-mindedly.

Fortunately, she had been riding horses all the time and had Huan Yu by her side, so no one noticed anything strange about her.

On the first day of August, the group successfully arrived in Wuwei County.

There are still five days before the wedding, but General Luo's Mansion has already made all preparations.

Yuchi Yang personally went out of the city to greet them and settled them in a farm of the Luo family.

He and Xiao Siyi could not meet before the wedding, so he ordered Xiao Bi and Hua Xiaohan to stay with the bride, while the others followed him to the General's Mansion to visit the old General Luo and his wife.

Hua Xiaohan was so tired that he yawned four or five times just after saying a few words.

Xiao Siyi was both distressed and amused, and ordered the maids to wait for her to go to the guest room to rest.

Seeing that Xiao Siyi was also a little sleepy, Xiao Bi hurriedly said: "Little aunt, don't just talk about Xiaohan, you yourself need to have a good rest.

Although the wedding is still five days away, it will take a lot of energy."

Xiao Siyi said: "Okay, then I'm going to lie down. If you feel bored, go outside for a walk. I saw a lot of tenants catching fish by the river. It looks quite lively."

Xiao Bei chuckled and said: "It turns out that my little aunt has such sharp eyes. I didn't even see the people on the horse, but you, the one in the car, saw everything?"

Could it be that you want to eat fish, so you asked me to get some?"

"You want to eat it, right?" Xiao Siyi pursed her lips and smiled.

Xiao Bi rolled her eyes: "Oh, I know, my little aunt obviously wanted to see my uncle, but she saw him catching fish!"

Xiao Siyi blushed and glared at her, stood up and followed the maids to the inner room.

Xiao Bi leaned on the back of the chair with her long legs stretched out, feeling a little bored.

If I had known earlier, I might as well have gone with Uncle Yuchi to say hello to my grandfather and grandmother!

A little girl from the farm came in carrying a plate of fruit.

"Princess, these are the pears grown in our village. They are juicy, sweet and delicious. Do you want to try one?"

Xiao Bi just drank tea and didn't feel thirsty.

But she looked at the red pears on the plate, which were more beautiful than any pears she had ever eaten before.

"Then cut one and try it." She sat up straight and ordered.

"Hey!" the little maid responded, her voice was very clear.

Xiao Bi thought to herself, this little girl looks ordinary, but her voice is really good, just like the pear she just described, crisp and sweet.

It's a pity that she has an ordinary appearance and an ordinary figure, and she grew up in this farm.

Otherwise, if you get a famous teacher, you will never be worse than those famous actors.

The little maid moved very neatly and quickly peeled and cut the pear and held it in front of Xiao Bi.

Xiao Bi tasted a piece. It was as sweet and watery as the little maid said, and the meat was tender, crispy and melted in the mouth.

Xiao Bi ate three or four pieces in a row, and then asked: "How many pear trees are planted in this farm?"

The little maid said: "There aren't many, just one or two hundred trees. They were planted by the third young master of the General's Mansion when he was young. They are now more than twenty years old."

"Are one or two hundred trees as delicious as this?"

"That's not as delicious as today. There are only four of them in total. Most of the others are sour and astringent, and the smaller half are also sweet, but the flesh is a bit hard and the core is very large."

Xiao Bi ate another piece of pear, somewhat regretful.

How many pears can be produced by four trees? It’s better not to think so much...

"Xiaojiu, what are you eating secretly?" A young man wearing a purple brocade robe walked in, it was Huan Ji.

The little maid hurriedly saluted him and said hello.

Xiao Bi smiled and said: "Don't salute the third young master. It's more important to peel a pear and give it to him."

Huan Ji picked up a piece of pear from the plate and stuffed it into his mouth. He waved his hand towards the little maid and said, "Please step aside first."

The little maid didn't dare to say anything, bowed and left.

Xiao Bi glanced at him: "Didn't you go to visit your grandfather and grandmother with your uncle? Why are you still here?"

Huan Ji said: "I have something to ask you for help."

Xiao Bi raised her eyebrows: "What's the matter? Come and tell me quickly."

"I saw you and my brother packing their luggage a few days ago. Do you plan to leave after your uncle's wedding?"

"Isn't this matter already discussed? Why do you suddenly ask about it again?"

"I...I want to go to Jin Kingdom with you." Huan Ji said cautiously.

Xiao Bi raised her eyes and looked at him: "Why did you suddenly have such an idea?"

"It's not all of a sudden..." Huan Ji shook his head vigorously: "I've been thinking about this for a long time.

It is said that brothers who work together can break gold. My brother and I grew up together, how could we miss such an important thing?"

Xiao Bi muttered in a low voice: "You are really capable of tossing things around. Even if I don't go, you still have to go with me..."

Huan Ji had sharp ears and eyes, and he heard her words clearly.

"What?" he exclaimed, "You don't want to follow my brother?"

Huan Ji really couldn't believe his ears.

Xiaojiu likes to join in the fun even more than he does. Even if her brother doesn't want her to go, she will never give up.

What happened that made Xiaojiu give up her previous plan?

Xiao Bi said: "My eldest sister is pregnant again. I heard from my little aunt that the pregnancy is not going well this time, so I want to go back and be with her.

Moreover, it will be her thirtieth birthday in a few months, and His Majesty has said that it will be a grand event, so I can’t afford to be absent.”

Huan Ji slapped his thigh and said, "I support you, no matter how urgent things are in Jin country, they cannot be more urgent than the queen.

Besides, what is Emperor Ji'an of Jin State?

My brother is just trying to kill a chicken with a knife, so if you are added to the list, it would be too flattering to him!"

Xiao Bi is not easy to fool.

She rolled her eyelids: "What is the purpose of you deliberately flattering me so much?"

Huan Ji grinned, this guy is really too shrewd!

I said a lot of nice things, but others were stunned.

"I don't have any purpose. If it were just now, I would like to follow my brother to the Kingdom of Jin."

Without waiting for Xiao Bi to speak, he quickly added: "You are going back to Beijing to visit the Queen, and there is one less general beside me. How inconvenient will it be if you encounter trouble?

Although I'm not as good as you in every aspect, I'm not too bad, right?

And I am absolutely loyal to my brother, so you can rest assured if you stay with him, right?

Also, I don’t have any skills as a person, and I’m best at dealing with people.

Although I am going to assassinate the Emperor of Jin Kingdom, I still have to live in the capital of Jin Kingdom for a while.

You know his character well, and he doesn't easily interact with strangers.

If I go along, I don’t have to bother him with many things and I can just solve them, right?"

Three "right" words in a row blocked everything Xiao Bi wanted to say.

Of course Huan Yu is not as noble as Huan Ji said. When he really needs to interact with others, he can do a good job.
