Chapter 161: Xin Zhui

The girl's face turned red.

The gossips of the women around her were like the wind blowing into her heart.

"Keep your voice down. I heard that the eldest princess has some relationship with Li Hou. If someone's daughter really joins the Li family, she may not be able to get a good deal?" Another older woman, with a gossipy look on her face, solemnly said

admonishing the brides in colorful clothes.

No matter how blocked it is, some gossip still has its channels of dissemination.

Sister-in-law and brother-in-law.

It is unclear and caters to the most shameful part of many people's hearts.

With the stability of the overall situation, the life events of the new Shenwu Marquis Li Yuan began to become a topic of conversation among the people of Qin who had no time to do anything. The private affairs of big shots always caused a lot of unnecessary speculation. Xin Sheng, Zhang Han, Yang Xiong

A few days ago, Li Yuan was reminded that they heard some hearsay news from his family members.

On the surface, the eldest princess Ying Yushu almost completely handed over the government affairs to Li Yuan. This kind of trust, in the eyes of many people with ulterior motives, was a naked affair between a man and a woman.

After hearing this, the young lady felt a little angry. Although Li Yuan had just given her the impression of being a bad guy, she would not be happy if someone else said that.

"Uncle, it's not what you said." Xiao Niang murmured and screamed at the women on the riverside. The boat swung open and drew a long water line.

"Hey, that little girl, my heart is so excited!" A woman straightened her sagging breasts and smiled exaggeratedly.

"Li Hou is young and powerful, who wouldn't be tempted?" The woman next to her blushed, looking at the gradually shattering reflection on the water, her heart rippling like ripples.

——.

March 26th.

Early in the morning, at the end of Xianyang Long Street, the servants of Xin Sheng's mansion, the new general of the Qin State, had gotten up early. The road was washed with clean water, and the tables, doors, and mats were carefully wiped.

After tidying up outside, the sun had already climbed to the top of the small tree in front of the door.

"Go and wake up the young lady. We will meet the distinguished guests later." Xin Sheng stroked his gray beard and looked at the renovated house with satisfaction.

As a general who was fighting abroad, it had been his dream for many years to settle his family in Xianyang City. Today, the First Emperor's unfulfilled wish finally came true.

At the court meeting not long ago, Li Yuan proposed that Xin Sheng, Yang Xiong and other veterans retire from the army and take up more relaxed duties in internal affairs. This made Xin Sheng feel that his old arms and legs were not enough as soon as he entered the battlefield.

Extremely grateful.

The general is the Shaofu, an official in charge of the construction of public buildings in the Qin State. To put it bluntly, it is equivalent to the power of the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Housing and Construction combined into one.

Xianyang was in dilapidated condition. Building a new city to accommodate the increasing population in the future was the unanimous idea of ​​officials at all levels in Xinqin. Regarding the specific implementation, Li Yuan needed to have deeper communication with Xin Sheng.

Build an ancient city.

Using his little bit of foresight to change a city and let the Qin people living in the city enjoy a comfortable life, this is what Li Yuan wants to do most now.

"Mr. Xin, why are you at the door? Doesn't this embarrass this junior?" Li Yuan came from Leyou Yuan's army on horseback with only Cao Xin and a few followers.

There was no dust scattered wherever the horse's hooves stepped, and the front door of Xin's mansion was clean and unstained, which made Li Yuan feel very happy. Xin Sheng is a person who is sensitive to numbers. The old general can remember the past clearly. Some

The casualty figures were reported more accurately than the post reports. This type of talent is needed to be the Shaofu.

"Li Hou, it is Xin's honor to come to the shabby house. Please come in quickly and ask the lady to come out to meet the guests!" Xin Sheng shouted loudly with excitement on his face.

Young people have their own stage, and old people have their own fun.

With the addition of Zhang Han, the three elders of the Qin Army: Xin Sheng, Yang Xiong, and Zhang Han gradually had something in common. Reminiscing about the past is one thing, and looking forward to the future is another.

At the same time, there are also strong expectations for their own children and grandchildren. The boy from the Zhang Han family has just joined the army and is currently serving as a corps commander in the army; Yang Xiong has given birth to two daughters, both of whom are married. There is nothing to compare with him.

He kept boasting that his son-in-law was very capable and could serve as a military lord in Luo Jia's cavalry.

In comparison, Xin Sheng only had one daughter, and she was still underage. This made Yang and Zhang get excited and show off every time they mentioned it.

Xin Sheng, who held his breath, finally waited for the arrival of his little girl. At this time, Li Yuan came to visit, and Xin Sheng, who was thoughtful, quickly asked his servant to summon his little girl to see him.

Li Yuan's visit this time was mainly to discuss in detail the construction of the new city. According to his idea, the new city would be built in Leyouyuan on the edge of the Wei River. The high slope can avoid flood disasters and at the same time divert the Wei River into the city, thus changing the traditional situation.

In the past, residents could only use rainwater and well water. The improvement of water quality will play a vital role in the health of the people of Qin.

Xin Sheng got into the role very quickly. As soon as Li Yuan mentioned it, he also became energetic and was able to connect his name with a city. Such an honor made Xin Sheng so excited that he almost couldn't sleep.

"Dad, since water is being diverted into the city, why not build some bathhouses next to the canals, dredged with bronze pipes, with cold water in summer and hot water in winter. Men and women can also be separated. You can also order people to collect some money. Well, let me do the math.

Think about it, how many times is appropriate?" A crisp voice came, interrupting the conversation between Li Yuan and Xin Sheng.

Li Yuan looked for the sound and saw a girl of fourteen or five years old who cleverly opened the curtain and walked in. She had light makeup on her eyebrows and a playful wrinkled nose, giving off the unique aura of a girl of this age. After taking a closer look, she suddenly felt a little familiar.

, thinking about it carefully, it turned out to be the little girl who dropped the silk scarf on Baqiao yesterday.

"Zhui'er, please meet Li Hou quickly!"

Xin Sheng's face darkened, and while scolding, he said: "Li Hou, this is my daughter Xin Zhui. She just came from Linxia. Please forgive me for any rudeness."

"Xin Zhui has met Li Hou——uncle!" Xiao Niang glared at Li Yuan reluctantly, then slightly curved her mouth and told Li Yuan with a hidden movement that uncle is uncle and there is no way to change it.

"Where did Miss Xin get what she just said? Who taught it, or where did it come from?" Li Yuan smiled at his mother and said lightly.

This kind of little girl who is in the rebellious stage of youth is the most difficult to deal with. She refuses to take advantage of her words and is very arrogant in her heart. If you go against them tit for tat, you can only lose your troops. A roundabout ambush is the right way.
