"Why didn't they recognize me, but you recognized me at a glance?" Li Yan asked Xiao Xuanxuan curiously.

Xiao Xuanxuan said with a giggle: "I was focusing on changing the dressings for Uncle Su just now, so I didn't have time to look up and see it. I knew it by listening to your voice. Your appearance has changed, but the voice has not changed. If you don't speak and let me see it first, I won't recognize it either.

Sixth uncle, why are you so dark? Have you gone to Shu to dig coal?"

Li Yan laughed loudly. Although this niece has grown up, she is still so naughty and cute. "You girl are just talking nonsense. Have you ever seen a coal miner?"

"Of course I've seen it. Once again, my dad took me out for fun, so we went to a small coal mine west of Chang'an. My dad said that the coal we burned in the whole winter in Chang'an came from there.

We were still there to help do the work for a day." Xiao Xuanxuan said seriously.

Li Yan frowned and said, "Where is taking you out to play? It is clearly taking you to experience life. When I see my brother-in-law, I must say that he is so young and still a girl. Why do you do when you dig coal?"

Who would have thought that Xiao Xuanxuan replied embarrassedly: "Actually, I am disobedient. My father is reluctant to beat me. I will punish me in this way. Otherwise, I will have to be beaten up by my mother with a feather duster."

Li Yan rubbed Xiao Xuanxuan's hair with a doting heart and said with a smile: "Tell me, you girl, you understand all the truth. Why do you still have to be disobedient and make mistakes even though you know you want to be beaten? How many beats have you been beaten for this?"

Xiao Xuanxuan stuck out her tongue and tried to defend herself: "I don't know what's wrong. Sometimes when I'm too curious, I forget about being beaten."

"Hahahaha, your reason is really...it seems to be the same as your uncle, I was when I was a child."

"No, I'm the same as you and you. My mother said that if you do bad things, I'm not as good as my sixth uncle. If you talk about anger, you're far worse than me..." Xiao Xuanxuan shook her fingers and stressed.

Well... Li Yan's face froze!

When he looked at his niece again, Li Yan was so amused and crying. Isn’t it? If you don’t say anything else, just like this just now, you almost pissed your uncle to death. How could his niece say that his uncle did something bad?

"Now you have grown up, you are not allowed to make your mother angry again in the future. I know that you have been beaten up since childhood, but every time you hit you, the one you feel most distressed about is your mother. What should I do if you make your mother angry?" Li Yan persuaded earnestly.

Xiao Xuanxuan agreed with a heavy emphasis: "Well, I won't know. I have done basically everything over the years, and nothing can arouse my curiosity. Hehe, even my father praised me for growing up."

"Where is your father? Why can't you see the clinic?" Li Yan asked.

"Dad recently ran to the chamber of commerce and the clinic. My second mother, who is Xiao Wu, is a big belly, can't control the chamber of commerce. Do you want to find dad? Let's go together."

Then Li Yan explained to everyone in the clinic, and rode his niece on the same horse slowly towards the chamber of commerce.

Coincidentally, the Chamber of Commerce is located in the center of Changlefang. When the uncle and nephew arrived, they were about to finish class in the middle of the school in Changlefang.

Xiao Xuanxuan, who was sitting on the horse, saw a group of children playing games at the entrance of the school. She had just glanced past her, but she didn't expect that there was an acquaintance inside, so she shouted excitedly: "Little Xianger!"

Well???Who?Who is calling me?

Among the children, Li Xiang was shocked. The voice was so familiar. It took so long to hear it.

Li Yan looked along Xuanxuan's fingers and was really his nephew Li Xiang. Why was he in this place? Isn't this a civilian school?

The two of them got off the horse and walked to the entrance of the school. The children here were still very bold, and they all looked at Li Yan and Xiao Xuanxuan curiously.

Of course, the attention is more on Xiao Xuanxuan, and everyone is guessing where this little girl came from?

"Hey, Li Xiang, are they here to find you? Look at the clothes they are wearing should be nobles. Do you have any noble relatives?" An older child pushed Li Xiang and asked.

Li Xiangcao replied: "This is my sixth uncle and sister."

After saying that, he ran over quickly, grabbed Li Yan and Xuanxuan and ran away.

Li Yan and Xiao Xuanxuan were confused. A group of children from the school booed. Isn’t it just that there is a noble relative? As for avoiding everyone like this?

"Do you say what Li Xiang said is true? His sixth uncle is so dark, but his daughter is so white and cute?" Some children questioned.

"Who knows, maybe it's not his sixth uncle's daughter?"

The students started to gossip, and everyone quickly focused on Li Xiang's life experience.

"Stop running, why are you running? Is someone bullying you in school? Who dares to bully you if you have a sister?" Xiao Xuanxuan shook Li Xiang's hand away and said dissatisfied.

Li Xiang looked back carefully and found that she had left the school. Then she greeted the two of them and said, "Xiang'er has met Uncle Six.

Sister Xuanxuan, my father told me that when I go to school here, you cannot let people know the identity of our family. If they let them know my relationship with you, our family will not be able to live here, so you have to help keep it confidential."

Li Yan laughed loudly, "I didn't expect Xiao Xianger to grow up, know the secret of protecting her. Tell me about Uncle Six, how about going to school here? Compared to Hongwenguan?"

Xiao Lixiang said honestly: "Mother said it was not as good as Hongwenguan, but her father said it was better than Hongwenguan."

"What do you think?"

"I don't know what my father and mother said is good or bad. I just think I like going to school here. Whether it is a teacher or a classmate, I like it very much. Everyone likes me very much, but they don't like Hongwenguan."

Xiao Xuanxuan patted her cousin's shoulder and said, "Just like me at that time, there are people here to play in school, but it's not OK at Hongwenguan. It's too boring.

However, what I learned here is too simple and it is not interesting. On the contrary, in Hongwenguan, you can tease the white-bearded old men every day. Seeing them stumped and pulled their beards is more interesting than here."

Xiao Lixiang lowered her head and rolled her eyes, thinking to herself, who dares to compete with you as a monster? If you dare to pull your master's beard, who dares to?

"If you are bullied in the school in the future, remember to mention my name. My sister was very famous in this area before."

Li Yan scolded, "Xuanxuan, why are you messing around? Your cousin is here to go to school, not to fight. Why do you mention you? What do girls' families look like?"

Then he asked Li Xiang about his recent situation. The school rang the little bell for class, and Li Xiang hurriedly trotted back.

On the way, Li Yan preached to Xiao Xuanxuan. He was almost a teenager and was still a girl and could not fight and kill all day long.

Xiao Xuanxuan sighed in a mature tone and said, "What else can you fight? No one has fought with me for two years. The older children in Chang'an City were beaten up by me before, who dared to fight with me?

Alas, Wudi is so lonely. Now I hope someone can’t even come to trouble.

There is no way, I can only stay at home every day to concentrate on studying medicine and medicine, and no one will play with me when I come out..."

Li Yan was tired and tender. Listening to the lonely and sad words of the goddess, he knew that the child was naturally playful. Li Yan felt sad and felt sorry for his niece's loneliness. But looking at the girl's invincible look, Li Yan felt that he deserved a beating again.

These two contradictory aspects are concentrated on Xiao Xuanxuan. No matter how you look at it, it is so weird. This child is so capable of making trouble.

The two of them came to the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce. Looking at the endless stream of chamber of commerce staff, Li Yan couldn't help but admire that there was a reason why the Du family chamber of commerce could dominate the world. Such a huge institution would be much more difficult to handle every place in an orderly manner than to build a road by himself.

"Brother-in-law, it's been a long time since Xiao Xuanxuan followed, so no one stopped him along the way, and the two came directly to Du Shaoqing's office.

"Xiao Liu? Are you back?

Oh my God, how long has it been, you have caused this? It seems that hard life does train people." Du Shaoqing sighed.

Li Yan smiled, smiling to the point where he showed white teeth, and his dark face looked like a crescent moon shining in the dark night.

"Thanks to my brother-in-law's teachings, otherwise I would still be a playboy in Chang'an who everyone scolds me."

Du Shaoqing quipped: "It's not necessarily."

"Haha, why should my brother-in-law be modest? Xiao Liu knew who the credit was..."

"Hahahahaha, Xiao Liu, I don't mean to refuse. I used the trick to throw you into the deep mountains. I dare to accept this.

Now, look at your fifth brother Li You. If you don’t wake up, maybe you won’t even be a playboy in the end.”

this……

Li Yan also heard about Li You. After all, he was a brother who played with him since childhood. In the end, he ended up like this, which is very sad.

Thinking of himself, Li Yan thought that if he had been, he would not have been confused and rebelled, but it would not be possible to be deceived by others. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shivering. Maybe this was the misfortune of being born in the royal family.

When enjoying the blessings that ordinary people do not have, they also bear the dangers that ordinary people do not have.

"Why are you thinking about coming back now? Cheng Qian said, you are paying close attention to the construction period." Du Shaoqing said curiously.

Speaking of road construction, Li Yan seemed to have changed his body, and he exuded a sense of firmness and confidence. "I heard that the court intended to immigrate to the north to the Hu people into the Central Plains, so I rushed back specifically to ask for people, or to steal people.

The most deficient thing in Shu is food, but it is difficult to transport it out. Building roads is a hard job. If possible, I think the construction of the north and south lines at the same time, which can greatly speed up the construction period of the Shu road.

So this time I came back, I asked for help.”

Seeing Li Yan staring at him with a fiery look, Du Shaoqing took a step back and exclaimed: "You kid, don't you want me to prepare roads for you on the North Line?"

Li Yan rubbed his hands and said flatteringly: "Brother-in-law is keen on his eyes. I'm afraid that the only one I can ask for help in Chang'an is my brother-in-law."

"How can that be? Look at me, I'm so busy that I'm not stuck in the ground now, how can I have time to do it?" Du Shaoqing waved his hands repeatedly.

"Brother-in-law, before I came, I blew up your name in Shu. Some of the people in Shu even erected the temples in advance for you. You won't let them down, right?

Besides, practicing Shu Road is a merit for generations, you..."

Du Shaoqing interrupted and said, "Stop, I, Du Shaoqing, have a conclusion on the reputation of the people in Shu. General Hou and I fought in Shu back then. Don't fool me.

This is a good thing, it’s not that I don’t help, but I really have the will but lack the ability. I can pay you money and skills, but I definitely can’t do it myself.”

Seeing that his brother-in-law was so determined, Li Yan couldn't help but feel anxious. He turned to look at Xiao Xuanxuan who was bored to look through the account book, "Xuanxuan, hurry up and help your uncle persuade your father. Only he can do such a big thing."

Xuanxuan shook her head and said, "No, I don't want my father to become like you, so dark that he can't recognize him."

"I promise that he won't be tired if he doesn't tan." Li Yan patted his chest.

Xiao Xuanxuan put down the account book, covered her mouth and walked over with a smile, grabbed Li Yan's hand and persuaded: "Hehe, do you want your father to work, but you still say you won't let him be tired? You must be lying to me, how can you not be tired when you work?"

"Of course there are work that is not tired, he just directs others to do the work..."

Before Li Yan finished speaking, Xiao Xuanxuan interrupted and said, "That's still the one who works in the end is someone else. Didn't Dad just say that he doesn't do it himself, but he can help you find someone."

That's not...I...

Oh...I understand!

Li Yan slapped his thigh, picked up Xiao Xuanxuan and kissed him and praised: "It's still my Xuanxuan who is smart."

That's right? I have no foundation and no connections in Chang'an. Brother-in-law, you have one. I don't know who to look for. Brother-in-law, you have a keen eye for people. How about recommending a capable person for me?"

Mr. Du cleared his innocence and said angrily: "You are so embarrassed to find Xuanxuan to help you persuade me!

In fact, it was wrong for you to come to me for help. I am a idler from Chang'an. Except for a few families with good relationships, I basically didn't interact with others.

Building roads is your goal, and it is also a state affairs. You should go to your old man, that is, His Majesty the Emperor, and express your thoughts and ask him to choose a capable person for you. This is the right way. In the future, the construction of the North Line will be much more convenient.

If I chose this person, then I would probably have to come forward to open the joints everywhere in the future, which would be inappropriate."

After hearing Du Shaoqing's analysis, Li Yan couldn't help but nod. It was true that this was the truth that he was too dependent on his brother-in-law and almost developed the habit of asking the other party in advance. This was inappropriate.

"Depending on your appearance, did you come here directly after returning to Chang'an and before entering the palace?" Du Shaoqing guessed.

"I first went to visit the court and explained the request for someone, and then went to the clinic to find you, and by the way, I would like to see my fellow brothers and sisters, and I would like to go to the palace to pay homage to my father and mother later."

Xiao Xuanxuan, who was standing beside her clapped her hands and jokingly, "Oh, sixth uncle, you're done. Grandpa is a very picky person. If you come back, you dare not go to see him as soon as possible, and wait for scolding.
