Chapter 707 Coincidence
The pier chosen by Zhao Xu is relatively remote and few people come.
As soon as he sat down, someone approached him. Was the news leaked?
Zhao Xu looked up at the people in front of him.
Meng Tang didn't understand why, so he looked at Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu smiled unconsciously and looked at Hu Zhongwei.
Hu Zhongwei immediately said: "The villain has never revealed it to anyone."
Meng Tang then became alert and hurriedly said, "I have never told anyone about the official family, and the Queen does not know about it."
"Then go out and have a look."
Zhao Xu believed them, walked out of the cabin, endured the pain in his butt, and looked at the approaching ship.
I saw three ships with the word "Li" hanging on the sails, and a middle-aged man in his early thirties and under forty stood on the bow of the ship.
He saw someone coming out and quickly raised his hand and said, "Brother, I just found that a ship was leaking and needed repairs in urgent need. Please allow the docking and repairing. With Xie Jin, I hope you can help."
Hu Zhongwei immediately stepped forward and whispered: "There is something strange in the official family. Can the villain drive him away directly?"
Zhao Xu raised his hand, said nothing, and watched the three ships approaching.
The middle-aged man at the bow of the boat kept staring at Zhao Xu. When he saw the boats around him moving, and gradually many burly men appeared, his face changed slightly.
Nowadays, it’s not new to bring more than a dozen or even dozens of ships when you go out. But if you bring so many fierce men, you will either be expensive or steal!
Li Ke regretted it a little, but it was too late and he slowly leaned over.
Zhao Xu was polite, raised his hand with a smile and said, "It is natural for Jianghu to rescue him. If we come here through the bill, we don't need to be polite to us, just be at will."
Li Ke felt more and more uneasy, and he quietly asked his family to hide and not show up. He stood at the bow of the boat and greeted Zhao Xu, saying, "I'm upset, please don't be surprised."
The Li family's ship began to dock slowly, far away from Zhao Xu's dozens of ships. The people were staring at Zhao Xu's direction while walking, and their expressions and movements were very alert.
Zhao Xu and Li Ke were very close, and both of them could see clearly.
Li Ke looked at Zhao Xu's pretty face and dressed appropriately. He felt relieved and said to himself: Such a dress should be a junior of the high school in the capital, not a robber.
Li Ke thought this way, but did not relax. After talking to Zhao Xu for a few words, he looked at his three ships and pretended to be a conspicuous face.
Zhao Xu glanced at Li Ke, feeling moved, and took the initiative to talk, "This brother, your surname, where is the mansion?"
Seeing that Zhao Xu took the initiative to speak, Li Ke had to turn his head and said, "Li Ke, a native of Jingdong, has lived in Bianjing for a long time, and this time he plans to return home."
Zhao Xu said oh, and said with a smile: "I have only been three ships after a long time living in my hometown. Brother Li is not doing well?"
Hearing Zhao Xu's obvious teasing intention, Li Ke pretended to be wry and shook his head, saying, "It's not so luxurious to go down again, so this time I went back to my hometown, except for some clothes, just books, and those antique calligraphy and paintings, gold, silver and jade, etc., there were not many pieces..."
Zhao Xu didn't know that Li Ke regarded him as a dangerous person. He deliberately revealed that there was nothing valuable on the ship and nodded and praised: "That's pretty good. If the boat is full of people's fat and ointment, even if it's taken back, I'm afraid I'm not sure if I eat and drink well. It's better to be purer, it's not bad..."
Li Ke was stunned for a moment. Why was this young man talking a little strange?
Zhao Xu was unaware of anything. Although he was restrained, his habits were difficult to change for a while. He continued, "Brother Li, I am a businessman. This time I am placing some important goods to Suzhou Prefecture. Brother Li doesn't mind traveling with him, right?"
Li Ke was very alert to Zhao Xu and was reluctant to agree to walk with him. He said with a smile: "It's going east below, and it's not the same as you like with your brother."
Zhao Xu really wanted to have a good chat with people outside the government and the country. He would not give up when he saw the opportunity. He said enthusiastically: "Brother, I think your boat can not be repaired in a short while. Come to me for a cup of tea. I just want to talk to the teacher about some academic matters."
As soon as Zhao Xu finished speaking, several big men took out the board and placed it between the two ships. The big man even stepped on it, walked to the opposite side and walked back, and said to Zhao Xu in a silly voice: "The boss is quite strong."
Zhao Xu smiled and nodded, looking at Li Ke.
Li Ke was so stupid. Why did the young man opposite talk to himself?
Before he could speak, he found that the young man turned around and entered the cabin.
Several big men stood at the bow of the boat and looked straight at Li Ke.
Li Ke had a strange feeling that if he couldn't go over, these big men would rush over like wolves and tigers and capture him!
This feeling is ridiculous, but it is very real.
Li Ke couldn't figure out Zhao Xu's origin. Under the intimidation of more than a dozen ships, Li Ke thought about it and agreed, and called the servants to whisper a few words, then carefully stepped over the board and came to Zhao Xu's cabin.
The cabin was separated by many rooms, and he was led to Zhao Xu's room.
"Sit." Zhao Xu lay on the soft collapse, making his butt feel better, and said with a smile to Li Ke.
Li Ke was extremely well-educated and just thought that Zhao Xu was used to being domineering, so he sat down opposite Zhao Xu calmly.
Zhao Xu picked up the teacup and said, "Do not be polite, drink tea."
Although Li Ke felt awkward, he still smiled and picked up the teacup, took a sip, and couldn't help but look surprised and concealed the past very well.
He has never drunk this tea!
He loves poetry and books, pursues elegance, has certain attainments in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and tea art. It can be said that he has drunk all the famous teas in the world, but this is not something that has never been heard of!
Li Ke calmly put down and stared at Zhao Xu, and became more and more curious about the origin of this young man.
Zhao Xu took a sip of tea and felt much more comfortable. He looked at Li Ke and smiled and said, "I'm not hiding it from the nobles in Bianjing City, there are few nobles in the big and small cities that I don't know. I don't know where Mr. Gao Ya?"
Although Li Ke was alert, he was not panicked and said, "I'm not hiding it to my junior brother. I was originally a senior in the university, but later transferred to the Imperial College to a doctorate and went to the Ministry of Rites. However, because I offended the powerful, I had to go back to my hometown."
Zhao Xu held the teacup with one hand, his expression still.
The person in front of him was vague, which actually means that this person has not become a high-ranking official.
‘No wonder I don’t know each other.’
Zhao Xu took another sip of tea and said slowly: "Of course the powerful? Who? Come and listen to me."
Li Ke didn't like Zhao Xu's way of saying this very much, so he smiled quietly and said, "Brother, you can guess it if you don't say it."
Zhao Xu is really hard to guess. He knows too many big names, and the official position of the surname Li in front of him is too low.
"What do you think of Zhang Dun?" Zhao Xu thought about it and suddenly said.
Li Ke was stunned. He didn't expect that the young man in front of him could guess!
This made him feel incredible and too coincidental.
He was indeed exiled because he "disobeyed" Zhang Dun, so he could not stay in Bianjing City.
