Chapter 117 1 Sijia with ink in her belly

Yin Li understood Luo Xi's intention after a little thought. He couldn't help but sigh: "This is the cleverness of the boss. She is just right to do this."

"Why?" Xiao Yi was even more confused. He didn't think it was appropriate.

Yin Li walked back while explaining: "No matter who we are, we five don't have the ability to convince the military and civilians of Tongning County. No one can convince the public."

"I don't agree with this." Xiao Yi said: "Lord Wei only cares about the people's affairs, while Lord Rong only thinks about pleasure. It's really not appropriate."

"But you, the military advisor, are capable and knowledgeable enough, and everyone, whether civilians or soldiers, treat you with respect."

The expression on Yin Li's face suddenly disappeared: "My Lord, you... please don't say such things again in the future."

Xiao Yi's eyes flickered, and he finally responded: "I understand."

Yin Li sighed and patiently explained: "My Lord, you only see that they are respectful to you and me, but you don't know that their attitude is so good because we are the military advisors and generals appointed by the big boss."

"They respect the boss, not us. Without this status given by the boss, you and I would be nothing in Chaoyang Villa."

"Yes, Military Advisor, I understand." Xiao Yi lowered his eyelids.

Yin Li looked at him deeply and said nothing more.

On the other side of the official road, in a low-key yet elegant carriage, Si Jia also asked a related question.

"Boss, are you so confident about everything in Tongning County?"

Luo Xi knew what he meant: "There's nothing to worry about."

The people under her have different personalities, but they complement each other perfectly, so there won't be any problems in the short term.

What's more, the lifeblood of the villa depends on them, and there will be no benefit if they make trouble.

As Luo Xi spoke, he looked at the layout of the carriage.

They are indeed a prominent family in the capital. Even their horse-drawn carriages reveal an ancient charm and luxury that has been precipitated by time.

"What about you? Why don't you serve as an official in Beijing under the emperor's watch? Instead, why do you run to a remote place like the border and serve as a small county governor?"

With his family background, he is more than qualified to be an official in Beijing.

Si Jia was stunned for a moment, and did not speak immediately. Instead, he slowly poured Luo Xi a cup of tea, and then said: "I... prefer a simple and quiet life, and Fei Yuan is here too, so I can just keep him company."

He didn't say anything more.

"Boss, why not try my cooking?" He pointed to the teacup next to Luo Xi.

Luo Xi was just asking casually. Since he didn't say anything, she didn't ask again. She raised her teacup and took a sip: "Mr. Si has great cooking skills!"

Si Jia is a man of few words but very sensible. It is very easy and comfortable to get along with him.

But Si Jia was surprised by Luo Xi. After chatting for a while, no matter what he said, Luo Xi could always connect with him, and his insights were unique and unheard of.

A woman actually has such talent.

Their Si family can be said to be the most ancient scholarly family in Tianqi. The collection of books in the study is so large that even the royal family may not be able to match it. He has basically read all of them, but many of the things Luo Xi said were the first time he heard them.

"Boss, which book did you read all this knowledge from? Can you lend it to me?"

His eyes were full of desire for unknown knowledge.

Luo Xi couldn't help but bend her eyebrows upwards, but she let it go if she borrowed books. There were many books in her space, but they were not suitable to be taken out.

"After I read it, I don't know where I put it. I can't find it." She lied with her eyes open.

In fact, some time after the end of the world, Luo Xi returned home and put all the things in the house, including the books in the study, into the space.

And when she passed by the library, she also collected many books.

Si Jia's elegant eyes were instantly replaced by pity: "How can you just throw books away casually?"

Luo Xi laughed: "If you want to know, just ask me, I remember it all."

Si Jia: "..." It seems that this is the only way.

After hearing this, Si Jia didn't hesitate and started chatting with Luo Xi.

At first they only talked about the drought in Tianqi, the situation of the people, and their own worries. Later, as they talked about astronomy, geography, economics and history, many of Luo Xi's insights made Si Jia feel like a world of enlightenment.

Si Jia thinks Luo Xi is knowledgeable, and so is Luo Xi.

Many of her so-called transcendent insights were copied from the words and experiences of historical figures, unlike Si Jia, who was truly well-informed.

He could talk about "Spring and Autumn Annals", "Zuo Zhuan", "Warring States Period", "Confucius", "Mencius" and "Han Feizi" without hesitation. Not only could he recite them fluently and understand them thoroughly, but he could also add his own unique insights.

They had been talking about these things for several days on the journey. By the end, Luo Xi's mind almost turned into a mess. She had a high level of education before the apocalypse, but who would have the time to study these things?

If it weren't for the fact that Grandpa liked to tell his grandchildren about ancient literature whenever he had time, Luo Xi would probably have given up the conversation long ago.

It was at this time that Luo Xi realized that although the Apocalypse Dynasty was a fictitious dynasty, many things from earlier periods actually had many similarities with our country's history. No wonder their writing and customs were so similar.

A few days later, when Si Jia asked Luo Xi about an article by Confucius again, she finally couldn't hold it anymore.

"Si Jia, I heard that you play the piano very well. How about you play a song for us?"

She tried to change the subject and refused to admit that she had no knowledge of the article.

"Boss, do you also understand music?" Si Jia was not disappointed, but looked over with surprise.

Luo Xi: "..."

I dare not admit it anymore.

It would be really annoying if I drag her into endless discussions.

"I just listen, is that enough?" she said.

Si Jia laughed dumbly: "Of course."

As he spoke, he asked a servant to go to another carriage and fetch his usual zither. Then he waved his sleeves and knelt behind the zither. He smiled at Luo Xiqing again, then stretched out his slender and beautiful hands and skillfully plucked the strings.

What a handsome young man! Luo Xi was stunned by him for a moment again. After a while, melodious piano sounds rang in his ears. He played it casually, and the sound was bright and cheerful, showing the master's good mood.

Luo Xi thought that she could arrive at Fengchuan County leisurely, but she didn't expect that before they left Nanyue County, their carriage was stopped by a man in black.

"Excuse me, is Madam Luo in this carriage?" He stood beside the carriage anxiously.

The coachman Si Mo was startled and quickly pulled the reins to stop the carriage.

Luo Xi lifted the curtain and looked over: "Are you... from the Red Mansion?"
