In the house, Du Xuan was changing Kang Jian's dressing. After Kang Jian described in detail what happened in the pond that night, Du Xuan answered.
Although there have been letters exchanged all the time, they haven't seen each other for more than half a year, and the letters have been coming and going for a long time. Du Xuan really has a lot to say.
He asked about Tanzhou, about Hejing, and about Ali. Shen Lie stood beside the bed and answered carefully.
When Xu Yinjun stepped into the house, the first thing he saw was Shen Lie, with one hand behind his back. His tall and thin back was like an orchid orchid tree, tall and straight.
Xu Yinjun called out "Shen Langjun", stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "I don't know if the distinguished guest is coming, but Xu is late."
Shen Lie turned around, raised his hand and said, "Manager Xu, please excuse me for disturbing you."
As he turned around, light and shadow passed over his face, and the straight and sharp bridge of his nose seemed to have been smoothly traced by an ink pen, and then a delicate and handsome face emerged.
The outline of the eyebrows is deep and clear, and the skin is as white and moist as jade. And these deep black eyes are calm and indifferent, but as bright as black jade.
This moment of light and shadow is like a clear moon emerging from the mountains, which is different from Shen Zhen's gloomy side and the joking coolness of a harsh word from time to time. The heroic determination in Shen Lie's body seems to be a sheathed long sword made of ice, gorgeous and noble. , Don’t stare at it.
Xu Yinjun was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened: "Shen Langjun's appearance is like that of a heavenly being."
Those workers were all telling the truth.
Shen Lie looked calm and said calmly: "Thank you very much, Manager Xu, for the compliment."
Xu Yinjun laughed dryly and said: "Here, Xu has lost his composure. Mr. Shen, please forgive me. Ah, by the way, where is our boss, when will Miss Ali come back?"
Shen Lie suddenly chuckled: "A few days later."
"Hey, young master," Du Xuan straightened his back and said sourly, "Why did you suddenly laugh? When we asked you about Ah Li, you asked us if we were very free."
"Nothing." Shen Lie suppressed his smile.
"There must be something." Du Xuan said.
"Yes, young master, please tell me why you are laughing." Kang Jian also said.
Shen Lie ignored them and looked at Xu Yinjun: "Manager Xu came just in time. I just need someone to take me for a walk to the southeast. Manager Xu is willing to lead the way."
"Oh...oh!" Xu Yinjun made a request, "Then, Mr. Shen, please."
Du Xuan was busy and followed him.
To the southeast of Zhiyu Waterside Pavilion is Lianfeng Academy. On a clear day, you can even see Wenhe Tower in the distance.
When Shen Lie proposed that he wanted to go to the southeast, everyone immediately understood that it must be related to Lianfeng Academy.
It was getting very late, and dark clouds were covering the sky. In the direction of Wenhe Tower, only scattered lights could be seen, reflected on the water, and the wind was blowing in the evening.
There are many boats parked along the coast, most of which are boats. Houses near the lake are occasionally shaded by trees, and there are colorful fallen flowers. During the day, the city was full of noise, and it seemed like the sky and the earth were outside. At present, there was only silence and emptiness.
The three of them walked for a while and then stopped. Due to the dark weather, the visibility was very low. Shen Lie looked along the lake, his eyes fixed on the stone stairs that pillowed the water not far away.
Xu Yinjun has been in Hengxiang for a long time and is familiar with this area. He introduced it to him: "It was originally an antique street, but later it gradually turned into a place for the Four Treasures of the Study."
"That is to say, people have become mixed." Shen Lie said.
Xu Yinjun paused and nodded: "...Yes."
Generally, not many people go to Antique Street. It is rare for half of the ten scholars to go there. Nowadays, there are so many literati and bachelors in Hengxiang. It is really chaotic.
"Du Xuan." Shen Lie said.
"Master."
Shen Lie looked at the stone staircase with water pillows: "I'm afraid I will be too busy tomorrow. Go find Dai Yu and ask him to give you 800 people. Within ten days, except for the original residents of this antique street, the rest will only go out." Not entering."
"Yes." Du Xuan responded. He usually had many questions, but he almost didn't ask why for Shen Lie's order.
Xu Yinjun was overjoyed. He was worried that this place would be exposed. He had been worried for a while, but he didn't expect that the first thing Shen Lie would do was to help him solve his pressing dilemma.
"Are there any fishing nets under this water?" Shen Lie asked Xu Yinjun.
"Yes, there are many fishing nets, which were dropped not long ago."
"How long will it take to replace it with barbed wire?"
"Barbed wire?"
"It still needs a sharp stab." Shen Lie said.
Xu Yinjun's voice became lower: "I haven't thought about this..."
"The purpose of Ah Li's trip is not Zhao Hui'en," Shen Lie said solemnly, "it's 'those people'."
Xu Yinjun was stunned and solemnly said: "Yes."
In addition to markets and underwater areas, Shen Lie also deployed defenses in several other places.
Even according to the farthest shooting range, Du Xuan will send people to move away the few trees to the west of Zhiyu Water Pavilion that can hide people.
If she wants to live here, it must have iron walls.
If she doesn't want to live here, then she will turn this place into a trap to lure enemies.
The wing prepared for Shen Lie is bright, clean and spacious. Next door is a separate bathroom with a large bathtub and hot water is ready.
Du Xuan specially brought a booklet and came over to wait. When Shen Lie came out of the bathroom, he said excitedly: "Master, come here!"
The opened book is filled with jade ornaments and beaded hairpins, each one is exquisite and elegant, and each one is named one by one, which is quite elegant.
Shen Lie glanced over and knew Du Xuan's intention. His eyes were as calm as water as he looked at Du Xuan.
Du Xuan pretended not to see his gaze, and said cheerfully: "These are all paintings I made in my spare time. These models are Jade Tea, Light Green, Mingyue Yue, Shiyu, Beiyanxiang... Young Master, you What do you think?"
Shen Lie took a deep breath and said helplessly in his clear voice: "If you don't pry words out of my mouth today, I'm afraid you won't give up."
Du Xuan secretly laughed, pretending to be calm: "Master, what did you say?"
"Ali."
Du Xuan couldn't hold it in anymore and said with a smile: "Master, just now Manager Xu mentioned Ah Li, why were you laughing?"
Shen Lie glanced at him angrily, looked at the lake in the distance with his hands behind his hands, and said lightly: "Since I arrived in Hengxiang today, no one I have met has failed to care about her. Although she is in the future, she already seems to be deeply rooted in the future. Here it is, everywhere.”
"This makes the young master happy..."
Shen Lie remained silent.
"Oh, I know! The young master is proud. The girl he loves is so loved by others. The young master is happy for her!" Du Xuan continued to say.
Shen Lie glanced at him: "What else do you want to ask?"
"Then come here and sleep in the open air, under the cover of the sky, the young master and her..."
Shen Lie doubted what he was thinking, frowned and said: "We are not two people, we are two teams with thousands of soldiers and horses. There are many soldiers beside her, and so do I."
Du Xuan was disappointed: "In other words, it is not the young master's turn to care, care, and ask for help?"
Shen Lie blinked slightly and turned his gaze back to the lake.
The courtyard was very windy, and although there were a few standing stone lampstands with herons and pine trees floating in the wind, the lanterns hanging under the eaves flickered, and the light and shadow were constantly intertwined.
Du Xuan didn't know if it was his imagination. He looked at Shen Lie's face. There seemed to be a slight... an unnatural blush on his fair and handsome face.
