Outside the gate of Fengnong Villa, an exquisite carriage was parked there. The breeze blew by, the curtains of the carriage flickered slightly, and the people in the carriage were looming.
"Sir, is Mr. An really someone we know? Are you sure he will really meet us?"
"Maybe, I always feel that that person... we have met before... but I'm not sure yet..."
At this time, the door of the villa slowly opened, and a well-dressed man walked out. His eyes were sharp and sharp, and he said respectfully to the carriage: "My master has invited Master Ji to enter the village!" After that, he stepped out of the way.
The people in the car glanced at the gate of the villa through the cracks in the car curtain. It was grand but elegant, and there was a hint of elegance in the grandeur. There are no two stone lions squatting on both sides like other mansions, but rows and rows of maple trees neatly planted. At this time, it is the time when the leaves of the maple forest are returning to their roots. The trees are bare, and occasionally a gust of wind passes by. The branches swayed, and the shadows imprinted on the ground seemed like gods and ghosts dancing. The mist that came from nowhere shrouded the maple forest faintly, and no matter how strong the sunlight was, it could not illuminate the scene clearly.
The eyes of the people in the car shrank, and a flash of intelligence flashed in their eyes, which disappeared in an instant. He tapped his fingers on the wooden board of the carriage three times, and then the coachman drove the carriage and slowly walked into the villa.
After arriving at an open space, the person who led the way bowed and said, neither humble nor overbearing: "There are rules in the village. Please get off the bus and walk, Master Ji."
There was silence in the carriage for a long time. After a long time, a delicate hand came out from the carriage and lifted the curtain. In the blink of an eye, a beautiful woman emerged from the carriage, with picturesque features and a complexion like snow. The man who led the way couldn't help but sigh when he saw it. After the woman got off the carriage. After glancing around, he said respectfully to the people in the carriage: "Sir, the scenery in this village is quite impressive!"
"Really?" As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a man with a long body standing outside the car door, like a fairy under the moonlight, as if he was flying. The man who led the way couldn't help but blink, and after making sure that he saw it correctly, he was surprised - his hair was actually white!
"Please come with me!" The guide suppressed the surprise in his heart and said to Ji Hengxuan in a deep voice.
"Zi'er, let's go!" Ji Hengxuan glanced at the guide. I was secretly shocked. He walks steadily, without any hint of frivolity, and it is obvious at a glance that he has profound skills. A small follower in this village has such skill. As for the others... He began to feel lucky that he was not the enemy of Fengnong Villa. Otherwise, even if he gathered all the forces in Dali, he might not win.
Mu Zihan didn't know his inner struggle, she just saw her father's expression changing unpredictably. Be suspicious. The two of them followed the guide with their own thoughts and arrived at a hall. The hall is no different from anywhere else, but a little simpler. In front of it is a screen of rich flowers and birds hiding the ancient bookshelf and bookshelf to the side. The maids dressed in exquisite clothes walked forward and filled a pot of green tea for each of them. The aroma of tea immediately filled the hall.
"Please wait a moment, Master Ji. My master will be here soon." The guide lowered his head and turned around to go out.
Only then did Mu Zihan walk up to him. He asked in a low voice: "Master... everything here is weird!"
Ji Hengxuan's slightly stern mouth raised a smile, nodded slightly and said, "What did you see again?"
"When I entered the village just now, I noticed that the scorching sun was in the sky, but there was a layer of mist in the maple forest. If it was normal, it would have dissipated long ago. How can it still stay until noon? And if the maple forest is covered with fog, If the owner of the village is smart enough, he should let us walk on the ground when we enter the village. Although there is nothing unusual in this courtyard, why is he so sure that we are guests and not enemies? "
After listening to Mu Zihan's words, Ji Hengxuan raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "That's half right."
Mu Zihan looked at him doubtfully, blinked, pouted, and said, "Master, of course Zi'er is not as smart as you, but why don't you praise me anyway!" Ji Hengxuan frowned inadvertently. Wrinkled, Mu Zihan quickly shut her mouth, not daring to act coquettishly anymore, and said seriously, "Please give Zi'er a clear explanation!"
Mu Zihan had been following him for such a long time and was well aware of his every move. When he frowned, his heart thumped, knowing that he had some objections to his coquettishness. She quickly restrained herself, she didn't want to make Ji Hengxuan furious, otherwise she wouldn't know how she died.
But before Ji Hengxuan could say anything, a man walked in outside the door. He was wearing dark-colored clothes and had a tall figure, as tall as a pine tree. Ji Hengxuan raised his eyebrows, and the smile on his face gradually deepened: "It turns out to be Brother Xie! Nice to meet you!"
The smile on Xie Weixing's face was similar to Ji Hengxuan's, and he said in a manly voice: "Master Ji, you are well."
Mu Zihan opened her mouth slightly in surprise, as if she did not expect Xie Weixing to appear in Fengnong Villa. Xie Weixing turned his head to her and smiled faintly: "We haven't seen you for a few months, Miss Mu is even more charming than before!"
Mu Zihan rolled her eyes. Any woman would like this kind of compliment. She gently lifted Su Xiu, covered her lips and said with a smile: "We haven't seen you for a few months, Mr. Xie's mouth is even sweeter than before!"
Ji Hengxuan frowned, but just asked softly: "I wonder why Mr. Xie came to Fengnong Villa? Just now I heard the servant said that his master invited me. Could it be that... his master is Mr. Xie?"
"I know the owner of the villa. He went on a long trip, so he entrusted me with all the external affairs of the villa. It happened that something happened in the villa these days, so he came here. I didn't expect to meet Lord Ji here. It's really Make Wei Xing feel warm in his heart." Xie Weixing stretched out his hand, asked Ji Hengxuan and Mu Zihan to sit down, and gently raised his hand to fill it with tea.
"I see." The look on Ji Hengxuan's face was unfathomable, as if he didn't quite believe what he said. Everyone knows that Fengnong Villa is a famous sect in various countries. The huge information network in this villa alone is enough to make everyone dream of it. No matter how generous a person is, it is impossible to hand over such a prosperous villa. into the hands of others, even if that person is one's friend.
Xie Weixing could tell what he was thinking after looking at his expression for a moment, but he didn't explain it. Some things just need to be touched upon, and there is no need to say everything in detail.
"I wonder why Master Ji came to Zhongyou?"
"Although I have a name in Zhongyou, there is nothing wrong with me, so I just went out for a walk and looked around."
"Now that Nan Qi and Dali are at war with each other, I wonder how Master Ji would have the leisure to travel around the mountains and rivers with his beauty?" Xie Weixing pretended to look at him in surprise and asked in confusion.
"Of course military attachés will take part in things like beating the husband. I'm just a small civil servant. Although I know some ways to treat illnesses and save people, it's not my turn."
When Mu Zihan heard this, she couldn't help but look back at him, secretly admiring her father for being able to say such words! Fortunately, he is the only descendant of Ji's Golden Needle! So thick-skinned...
"Haha—" Xie Weixing smiled, "Master Ji is really too modest."
The topic just changed, and Mu Zihan sat aside obediently with her head lowered and her eyebrows lowered, occasionally taking a sip of tea gracefully. The two men are both experts in Tai Chi. When they talk, they go around and around, but they don't focus on the point.
A quarter of an hour, half an hour, an hour...
The sun gradually hung high in the center, and the two of them were still talking happily. Mu Zihan thought of Nan Qi and Zhengli, who were fighting fiercely in the south, and then looked at the two people in front of her. One was a senior official in Nan Qi (although she didn't know what official Xie Weixing was in Nan Qi, but the Xie family, There is no fuel-efficient lamp.) One was an imperial physician of Dali, but he put aside such important national affairs, and the two of them became brothers here!
"By the way Wei Xing, I came here with a young man named An Yu. I wonder where he is now?" Ji Hengxuan finally became impatient, but still kept his expression and asked doubtfully .
"You mean Xiao An..." Xie Weixing gently ground the cup lid with his fingertips, his voice soft and slow, as if he was thinking about something, "She was injured and is recovering from illness. What do you want to see him for? Tell me That’s fine, I will bring Hengxuan’s words to her.”
"Uh..." Ji Hengxuan finally couldn't hold back the smile on his face, and his face sank. He was already so angry that he wanted to tear Xie Weixing in front of him into pieces, but... he had to endure it! "I see. In fact, I have nothing else to do with him. I just met him at Prince Qin's place that day. So when I heard that he had entered Fengnong Villa, I followed him out of curiosity."
"Prince Qin?" Xie Weixing's eyes flashed and he smiled slowly, "Did Prince Qin say anything?"
"Prince Qin was full of praise for Mr. An. This time, although it was me who came to see him, in fact, it was Prince Qin who wanted to see him again." The corners of Ji Hengxuan's lips raised, and a smile that seemed to have a meaning appeared.
Xie Weixing took a sip of tea as if he hadn't seen him before. Suddenly he said: "Hengxuan and Prince Qin have always been on good terms?"
The topic changed so quickly that Ji Hengxuan was caught off guard. He was slightly stunned for a moment before speaking: "Prince Qin is knowledgeable and knowledgeable. I can learn a lot by making friends with him. Besides, he is generous to others and treats friends like us who come from afar." He also takes good care of me. Therefore, it is a great achievement for me to be friends with him."
Xie Weixing nodded seriously at such words, and said suddenly: "Weixing admires Hengxuan for having such a big heart." After saying that, he raised the teacup in his hand and said to him, "Weixing has tea." Let’s toast Hengxuan with a glass of wine instead!”
Ji Hengxuan secretly bit his silver teeth and toasted bitterly, but still kept a bright smile on his face.
