Day 274 Help(1/2)
After hearing Li Shimin's complaints, Xiao Buyi turned his thoughts and seemed to Pei Bei. This boy was really pretty. He didn't believe what Li Shimin said!
Regarding Li Caiyu and Xiao Buyi's impression is still about the bully robbing the girl in the family, and he doesn't believe she will run away from home for herself.
Xiao Buyi didn't believe it because he said that Li Caiyu ran away from home for him, and it was very likely that he would be for Chai Shao.
According to Xiao Buyi's judgment, the matter is probably the other way around, that is, Li Yuan broke up the couple, Li Shimin fanned the flames, and Li Caiyu couldn't stand the instigation of his father and brother, so he resolutely ran away from home.
Thinking of Xiao Buyi, who was here, looked at Li Shimin's smiling face, but he was not angry.
In any case, Li Shimin had at least no malice or hostility, and Xiao Buyi was somewhat proud of it. At least until now, he did not have to look at others' eyes, but too many people wanted to hug him.
Regardless of her, Li Caiyu and Li Caijin, what he has to do now is to go to the grassland to see Meng Chenxue and see what benefits he can get from Ke Dun. Xu Shiji regards him as a god. It seems that it is easy to overthrow Bi Khan, but Xiao Buyi knows it himself and knows that things are not that simple.
Be careful of making the Wannian Ship. No matter what, if he breaks the matter of Shibi Khan, he must beware of Shibi Khan's plot. But Dun is not a vegetarian. It is very likely that he will be involved in a knife for Yang Guang. Now he is trying to get the skin of a tiger. Whether he can get the skin or be eaten by the tiger is ambiguous.
In fact, when he received a letter from Meng Chenxue, he had already considered what Pei Bei said, but he considered more. Ke Dun wanted to use him, and of course he also wanted to use Ke Dun. He did not say the crisis, but he just didn't want Pei Bei to worry. But what kind of person he should appear in the grassland still needs to be considered seriously.
Li Shimin didn't know Xiao Buyi's next move, and was still making active efforts for the marriage and striving persistently. "After my sister ran away from home, my family was very worried. My younger brother was the most worried."
Pei Bei suddenly said, "I think you are very happy now, not worried."
Li Shimin said that he was thirsty and wanted to drink tea. He almost drank it into his nose. He could only smile bitterly: "I am just playing the pipa under the Coptis chinensis tree and making fun of it. I don't know what to call this lady. I think she and Brother Xiao are really handsome and beautiful, and they are rare."
Pei Bei smiled. "Even if it is rare, it is still not as infatuated as your sister."
Since Li Shimin entered the house, he has been thinking about Pei Bei's identity, but it is hard to say too much about her sister's goodness in front of her.
Xiao Buyi is a gentleman, but in Li Shimin's opinion, a gentleman is easy to talk to, while women and villains are difficult to deal with. Maybe some words offend them and make you fail.
"My sister is of course infatuated with Brother Xiao, but it cannot be denied that there are many good women who are also infatuated with Brother Xiao. With Brother Xiao's prestige, appearance, ability, and family background, if I were a girl, I would probably have a secret heart."
Xiao Buyi's cough was relieved, and the cough started to get up again, and it was both angry and funny. He thought that this boy was ashamed and said everything about choosing a partner. But he never talked about feelings. Perhaps in their eyes, the basis between men and women is a match. As for the relationship, it was just a luxury accessories.
Pei Bei sighed, "Fortunately, you are not a girl, otherwise I would be jealous of Ruokuang, and I am afraid I will stab you with one knife."
Li Shimin's face turned pale and changed the topic and said, "By the way, Brother Xiao, where did I say it?"
Before Xiao Buyi could answer, Pei Bei had already answered, "You said your sister ran away from home, and your younger brother was very anxious. Then, I don't know why I didn't go to find my sister and ran here to find Brother Xiao?"
Li Shimin was not panicked. He smiled and said, "Of course there is a reason to find Brother Xiao. Because my sister ran away from home just for Brother Xiao. In the past, she didn't know where Brother Xiao was. Maybe she couldn't find Brother Xiao, so she probably went to Dongdu and walked along Brother Xiao's footsteps of the East Expedition..."
"You seem to be very clear about my current situation?" Xiao Buyi asked with a smile.
Li Shimin smiled and said, "Brother Xiao travels from north to south and hits the banks of the Yellow River. Even if I am a deaf man, I can know Brother Xiao's deeds. What's more, after I know that my sister has a good impression of you, she cares more about you." Seeing Pei Bei staring at him, Li Shimin smiled, "I came to find Brother Xiao, but I actually wanted to see Brother Xiao, will my sister come here to hear the news after she heard that Brother Xiao enters Baling County? If this is true, wouldn't it be better for me to wait for her? So I came to find Brother Xiao and was ready to wait for her sister here. In fact, my father regretted it after his sister ran away from home. After drinking to relieve her sorrow, he had already told me that he regretted not listening to her sister's words. If he gave him another chance to choose, he would definitely agree with his sister's proposal. Now he is afraid that you will know this and be dissatisfied with him, and he will inevitably feel anxious. Brother Xiao, you agree to me and you will never blame your family.
Li Shimin looked at Xiao Buyi with anticipation and finally rested for a while.
Xiao Buyi wanted to hold the teacup on Li Shimin's head, "Shimin, if you don't say it, I won't know these things."
Li Shimin said righteously: "What can you do? A gentleman doesn't deceive the dark room. It's because Brother Xiao doesn't know that I want to say more. Even if my father and sister come to blame me, what can I do if my family blame me? At least I am sincere to Brother Xiao."
When Xiao Buyi saw the sincere man in front of him, he finally said, "Shimin, I actually know that what I said is a bit different from what you said."
Li Shimin was calm and said, "Brother Xiao has any questions, just come and ask."
Xiao Buyi smiled bitterly and said, "Your sister and I have actually met..."
"Yes, that time I originally wanted to take Brother Xiao to worship Xuanba, but my sister insisted on taking you there that time. I think since that time..." Hearing Xiao Buyi's constant coughing, Li Shimin asked with some concern, "Brother Xiao, if you are cold today, you must be careful and be careful of your health."
Xiao Buyi thought to himself, seeing you is disappointing enough, "Actually, your sister really doesn't feel anything about me, and I don't know that she is infatuated with me at all. She even tactfully hinted to me that there is no possibility between us. Shimin, so I'll ask you..."
"She is absolutely impossible to hint to you?" Li Shimin was a little surprised. "Brother Xiao said she rejected you?"
Xiao Buyi nodded, "It's probably that."
Li Shimin muttered in his heart, but smiled, "Brother Xiao, I dare not speak out about other aspects. But I don't agree with this emotional aspect. Women are mostly implicit, how could they agree to you directly? It is reasonable to refuse. According to my experience, when this woman says no, she is actually agreeing."
"What if the woman agrees?" Pei Bei couldn't help asking.
"Of course, that's also the meaning of agreement." Li Shimin did not hesitate.
Pei Bei's eyes murmured: "It seems that you know women better than me."
Xiao Buyi couldn't help laughing. "If you say that, there is no woman in the world who doesn't like me."
Li Shimin was proud, "Well, what I said is not absolute, but there are some truths. Just like the person who knows you best is not necessarily your friend, but your enemy. And the person who knows women best is not necessarily a woman, but a man..."
Xiao Buyi interrupted his long speech. "Shimin, no matter what, you have to find your sister first. What do you think?"
Li Shimin also felt that it was not appropriate to be too hasty and begged: "Brother Xiao, since my sister is very likely to come to Baling, I still want to stay here and wait for my sister. I wonder what Brother Xiao wants?"
Xiao Buyi smiled and said, "Shimin has a sincere heart to his sister, which is really touching. This is a huge place in Baling County, and it is not a problem to accommodate you. Beier, go find Shaofang and ask him to arrange a place for Shimin to rest."
Li Shimin left with Sun Shaofang, quite satisfied. He thought that he would seize his thin-skinned weakness when dealing with someone like Xiao Buyi. Anyway, everyone his sister would marry. If he could marry Xiao Buyi, with Xiao Buyi's strength, he would unite with the Li family in the north and south. There would be no one in the world who could compete. As for Chai Shaodi's little loss, what is it? Without his sister, at worst he would find a sister to marry him.
In the early morning, Li Shimin finished washing and went to the general's mansion early. He also thought about what to talk about today.
Although Li Caiyu and Xiao Buyi have to win over the relationship, he also wants to take this opportunity to have a good talk with Xiao Buyi and add a good impression to each other.
But when he arrived at the General's Mansion and passed it in, he quickly allowed him to enter the living room. However, after waiting for a long time, Xiao Buyi did not show up.
Li Shimin's thoughts were turned, but there was no displeasure on his face. He was drinking tea leisurely and looking around at the arrangement of the general's mansion, and found that although the general was quite large, the arrangement inside was simple. Although Xiao Buyi had just arrived in Baling, he seemed a little shabby. Li Shimin thought to himself that Xiao Buyi does not value money or form. The arrangement of the general's mansion can be seen. A man's life is for two things, one is for fame, and the other is for profit, that is, not for profit, and it should be for the reputation of the world.
While thinking, Pei Bei slowly walked in. Li Shimin did not neglect and stood up with a smile and said, "Miss Bei."
Although Pei Bei knew him before, he didn't know Pei Bei. I only heard that Xiao Buyi called her Beier yesterday. Of course, he would not enjoy the same treatment as Xiao Buyi, and only called Miss Bei. Although he didn't know each other, he seemed familiar.
"Your sister didn't come to see Brother Xiao last night. What are you doing here today?" Pei Bei asked coldly.
Li Shimin knew that she mocked her for being too diligent, and then said to her sister. She didn't care and said with a smile: "Actually, I'm not here today for my sister's business."
Pei Bei's face was slightly relaxed, "Then why are you doing?"
"When I passed by Xiangyang and Baling, I saw General Xiao re-issuing the equalization order, renting for mediocre orders, which was deeply loved by the people. Then I came to learn from General Xiao and learn these two laws."
"Then it's a coincidence that you came." Pei Bei suddenly smiled, "Brother Xiao is not here today."
Li Shimin was slightly stunned and said in a flash: "I don't know where General Xiao went, so I didn't say anything to me."
"Does he have a duty to report to you?" Pei Bei said disdainfully.
Li Shimin still laughed, "That's not the case, but I have always admired General Xiao. If he has something to do, I just want to see if he can help."
Pei Bei spoke coldly to Li Shimin. Seeing that he was doing nothing, he was very troubled. "Brother Xiao is not in the general's mansion, I have something to do, so please come back first." She turned around and wanted to leave, and Li Shimin hurriedly called her, "Miss Bei. I wonder if General Xiao will turn around tomorrow?"
Pei Bei shook her head, "I don't know."
"Then where did he go? Please tell me that Miss Bei." Li Shimin showed a pleading look on his face.
Pei Bei laughed sarcastically, "He might have gone to Jiangxia or found your sister."
Li Shimin was stunned and said for a while: "Miss Bei, I know you have always been dissatisfied with me, but I have no choice. Can I not look for my sister or not listen to my father's words? I see General Xiao is quite close to Miss Bei. I think that Miss Bei will be the main wife in the future. If my sister marry General Xiao, she will definitely not take into account any status. As the saying goes, this sheep will be raised on one end and both ends will be released..."
"Fortunately, I'm not your sister." Pei Bei said to himself.
Li Shimin smiled and said, "If Miss Bei wants to be my sister, I will welcome you with both hands. I have a sister like you, which is also a blessing from my previous life." "If I had a younger brother like you, I really wouldn't have been practicing in my previous life." Pei Bei glared with her eyes, "If I were your sister, the first thing I did was to strangle you to death! Li Shimin, I am not satisfied with you, not because of Li Caiyu, but because you don't treat your sister as a human being... Forget it, it's useless to say to someone like you."
Pei Bei left angrily, but Li Shimin couldn't stop him anymore. He shook his head, "Fortunately, you are not my sister."
He walked out of the general's mansion and couldn't help but feel a little confused. He thought where Xiao Buyi went, and was it very likely to go to take Jiangxia secretly. This time he occupied Xiangyang, Baling was really a trick. At least if it were the region, Xiao Buyi had the least enemies at the moment. He took Jiangxia and went south to the south. The entire Jiangnan would soon fall into Xiao Buyi's hands! Thinking of this, Li Shimin felt sad and thought that Xiao Buyi had already taken action, but he was still timid and did not dare to stand out. It was really disappointing.
When Li Shimin was thinking about where Xiao Buyi went, Xiao Buyi had been in Luo County hundreds of miles away.
Xiao Buyi did not go to pick up Jiang Xia, and of course he did not go to find Li Caiyu. Since he decided to go to the grassland, he left only on his body after sending Li Shimin away, and briefly arranged the matter of Chin Ling, and went straight to the Turks with a white horse and spear.
There are Pei Xingyan, Sun Shaofang, Pei Bei and others in Baling County, which can be considered as reassuring. In addition, Dong Jingzhen and others in Baling County can ensure that Baling is worry-free.
Nowadays, Xiangyang and Baling counties are his key targets for development. As long as Xiao Buyi’s land is famous and his reputation is spread, the surrounding counties, as long as they are not stubborn and no longer serve the Sui family in troubled times, they will most likely come to submit.
He set out at noon, crossed the city without entering, but just rushed north until dusk, and the people were energetic and the horse was handsome, but he had already run for more than 500 miles. After walking for another hour, he felt sorry for the moonlight without any fatigue, but he cherished his horse's strength. He immediately found an inn to stay for one night, and continued on the road at dawn the next day, and now he has arrived in Shangluo County.
Shangluo County is not far from Tongguan, and it is more than a thousand miles from Tongguan to Baling County. Xiao Buyi ran for less than a day and most of the distance was. The moonlight can be said to be a thousand miles a day, and it will live up to the name of a thousand miles apart.
Since he conquered the moonlight, he rarely had such a happy time to run, and he thought to cross the Yellow River from Tongguan to the Bird and Mouse Valley. The journey was really familiar.
In the past three years, from north to south, from south to north, he has almost traveled to most of the Central Plains. The three words Xiao Buyi have also been spread to almost half of the Central Plains.
However, there were many more bandits along the way than a few years ago. When a bandit saw Xiao Buyi’s white horse Shenjun, he secretly wanted to rob. Xiao Buyi did not want to be troublesome, but just urged the horse to rush on the road. When the bandits saw the white horse galloping like flying, they disappeared in an instant, and their thoughts could not be changed, let alone robbed. They couldn’t help but envy and sigh at the horse.
After rushing for another hour or two in the morning, Xiao Buyi slowed down his horsepower slightly, thinking that there was still a long way to go to Tongguan. At the current speed, he would definitely arrive before dusk. After rushing for another day or two, when he could reach the grassland, he thought that he would not be the same as a few years ago, and he was very moved for a while.
From south to north, the weather turned colder, less green and more gray. Fortunately, there was no snow, and the road was not difficult to walk on, but the trees along the way stood barely, which looked a bit monotonous and boring.
After walking slowly for a while, Xiao Buyi urged the horse to go again. When he passed by a forest, his eyes suddenly moved and saw a person hanging on a tree with his legs kicking, with strangeness in desolation.
Xiao Buyi did not hesitate, and pulled his bow and shot it out with a sneer.
His archery skills are as powerful as a god, his arms are strong, and although he is far away, he is not bad at all.
The long arrow shot the rope and the man landed on the ground. Xiao Buyi had already arrived on his horse. The arrow was accurate and the horse was also fast!
The man fell to the ground and suddenly started to cry, "Heroine, why don't you save me? Why don't you let me die!"
Xiao Buyi looked at the man carefully. Seeing that he was dressed in a scholar, his clothes were not bad, but he was covered with bloodstains, his face was also bruised and swollen, and there were blood on the corners of his mouth, which looked like he had been beaten up.
"Since you have saved, you don't have to die..."
The scholar looked up at Xiao Buyi, and saw that he was handsome and Ma Yixiongjun was very heroic. He felt very fond of his heart, but he still shook his head and said, "Heroic, you saved me for a while, but you can't save me for the rest of your life. If you leave, I will still die."
"You are not afraid of death, what else are you afraid of?" Xiao Buyi said lightly.
The scholar looked at the north and sighed, "Sometimes, living is much more difficult than death."
Xiao Buyi frowned, "I have something important to do, I will explain the situation with you the skill of giving you a cup of tea. I see if I can help you. If you don't know how to cherish it and talk nonsense, I can't do anything about it."
To be continued...
