Prince Pingxi has guarded the western border for so many years.
It has long been deeply rooted and powerful.
It is not easy to deal with him.
This matter needs to be considered in the long run.
"Little bird."
Zhao Xiaole turned around and called softly: "Send a letter to the Crown Prince immediately, asking her to be careful about the people in Prince Pingxi's palace. The person supported by Prince Pingxi is probably the third prince!"
"yes!"
After doing this, Zhao Xiaole and others returned to the Hot Spring Villa again.
In a small courtyard of the Hot Spring Villa, red mud and green ants have been waiting here for a long time.
"Sir, you've been away for so long and haven't come back. I thought you didn't want us anymore!"
The two said with aggrieved faces.
Zhao Xiaole smiled and pinched their noses.
"how could be?"
"You two are so beautiful, how could I not want you?"
The two girls were immediately ashamed and happy, and they kept chattering around Zhao Xiaole.
At this time, a trembling middle-aged man with some fear in his eyes came to Zhao Xiaole.
"Master Zhao, I have already bought a very ordinary carriage according to your instructions."
"Everything for food and drink is available up there. Do you have any other instructions, sir?"
Zhao Xiaole glanced at him and praised: "You have done a good job, don't worry! I will tell His Highness the Crown Prince about this matter, and I will not forget your contribution!"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man suddenly became happy and bowed to Zhao Xiaole again: "Thank you for your grace!"
At this moment, he was extremely excited.
I am also glad that I did not treat this adult lightly.
Today's capital city.
No matter the dignitaries or ordinary people, they all took pleasure in Zhao Xiaole's demotion.
Therefore, even some subordinate officials in the East Palace gradually looked down upon Zhao Xiaole.
I feel like he is no longer favored.
There is no need to tolerate him so much.
But Zhou Fu didn't think so in his heart.
If Zhao Xiaole was really out of favor, why did the prince let him go to Chuzhou to become a high-ranking official with real power like the captain?
So Zhou Fu thinks.
This is exactly proof that Zhao Xiaole is very favored.
This is to cultivate him into a generation of feudal officials!
A proud smile appeared on Zhou Fu's face.
"Great, with Zhao Xiaole's recommendation, the prince will definitely pay attention to me, and then I will be able to leave the history museum and truly join the court!"
Thinking of this, he felt a little excited and looked at Zhao Xiaole with particularly pleasing eyes.
"Haha, they all say that Zhao Xiaole is only arrogant and domineering, but in fact he is brainless. But looking at his words and deeds today, I am afraid that many people have been deceived by Mr. Zhao's appearance!"
Zhou Fu sneered in his heart.
Naturally, he won't talk too much to remind others.
But if others really think Zhao Xiaole is a fool.
That would probably be bad luck!
Until the carriage drove out of the small courtyard, Zhou Fu waited beside him politely.
As meticulous as a servant.
"Haha, this kid has a future!"
Zhao Xiaole couldn't help but feel some appreciation in his heart.
Who can not love such a person who does things without leakage?
And even without their own recommendation, I'm afraid such talents will be promoted sooner or later.
that's all.
Zhao Xiaole and his party changed to an ordinary carriage.
Go on the road very quietly.
It was very peaceful along the way.
After all, the Jingyang Dynasty is still in a very powerful period.
The people could barely afford to eat and drink.
Therefore, there are still very few characters like thieves or bandits.
Even if there was, it was easily dismissed by Suzaku, and there was no danger at all.
After half a month of this, the group came to the area of Gao County in Chuzhou.
When passing by a small mountain village not far from the county seat, the sky suddenly turned gloomy, and a cold wind blew like a ghostly whine.
Red Ni and Green Ant huddled in the car and trembled: "Sir, it's getting late now, how about we go to a nearby village to stay for one night and hit the road tomorrow?"
Zhao Xiaole saw that the sky had indeed become dark.
Soon, I'm afraid I won't be able to see my fingers anymore.
So he nodded, "Okay! But you can't reveal my identity in front of outsiders, just call me Young Master."
"Um."
Hong Ni and Green Ant responded quickly.
The carriage slowly drove into the mountain village.
Because the heavy snow is coming, every household closes their doors and turns off the lights to sleep.
Only one house still had a bright red fire on it, and black smoke was billowing out of the chimney, as if the house was on fire.
He was the only man in the car, so Zhao Xiaole knocked on the door of that house in person.
Obviously, he didn't expect that someone would come to the door at this time. The house was silent for a while, and then there was a sound of footsteps in the courtyard, accompanied by the weak cough of an old man.
"Cough cough cough..."
"Who is it?"
Zhao Xiaole replied: "Old man, we went out to play in the city. We were so happy that we went back late."
"It's getting late now, so we would like to stay overnight for the convenience of the elderly. We will not give you any less money."
Upon hearing his words, a dark eye immediately appeared in the crack of the door, looking out.
I saw that Zhao Xiaole's clothes were really good.
Even a maid like Red Clay Green Ant was wearing a fine silver leather jacket with animal ears, so she knew Zhao Xiaole was not lying.
This group of people is indeed a young man from a wealthy family.
So the people inside opened the courtyard door.
But when he saw the person inside, Zhao Xiaole was obviously stunned for a moment.
This person's face is as black as coal, and the skin on his body is also shiny black.
The first thought that came to Zhao Xiaole's mind was...
This should be a black man!
But he felt it was a bit unreasonable.
Because black people were called Kunlun slaves in this era.
As you can tell from the name, they were actually sold as slaves.
It is obviously impossible to live like this like an ordinary person.
The man obviously noticed the strange look in everyone's eyes. A hint of shame immediately appeared on his old face, and he coughed and explained: "Ahem... Don't blame me, sir. I was burning charcoal just now, so I got some dust on it.
Just wash up. Master, please go inside!"
He quickly opened the door, invited Zhao Xiaole and the others in, and shouted into the room with a hoarse voice: "Chaoyun, there are guests at home, please take out all the food in the house to entertain the guests!"
Zhao Xiaole said quickly: "Old man, you don't have to be like this. We are just staying for one night, and we also brought some dry food, so you don't have to go to such trouble."
The old man exuded a simple and honest atmosphere, and he insisted: "If the young master can stay at the old man's house, then he is the old man's guest."
"How can I let my guests eat dry food?"
"Sir, come in and sit down quickly!"
Seeing that he couldn't resist his persistence, Zhao Xiaole could only smile helplessly and followed the old man into the house.
And beside the stove in the room, there was a girl of fourteen or fifteen years old, busy.
