Chapter 803 Zhao Gong's Letter (Part [-])
From passive to active, Shen Lie's arms wrapped around the girl's body.

Winter clothes are thick, and Shen Lie is wearing a big sable fur. In addition to his tall stature, Xia Zhaoyi seems to be completely trapped in his broad arms, surrounded by his warmth from all directions.

An indescribable strange emotion caused Xia Zhaoyi to gently frowned, and moved her fingertips, trying to push the man away to avoid this strange feeling, but when she raised her hand, it turned into an inexplicable Go hug him, and pat him on the back lightly, comfortingly.

The wind and snow were whistling in her ears, and through the generous clothes, she seemed to be able to hear the man's powerful but chaotic heartbeat.

This heartbeat attracted her attention, and as she listened to it, her own heartbeat became chaotic.

Shen Lie lowered his head, he was much taller than the girl, his back was slightly arched, his smooth and white cheeks were attached to her hair, the fragrance of the hair was closer and clearer than ever before.

He closed his eyes, and after holding her for a long time, he let go.

Xia Zhaoyi's eyes were like paint, and he raised his eyebrows to look at him.

"Ali, thank you." Shen Lie whispered.

Xia Zhaoyi nodded, the corners of his lips were slightly pulled, and he smiled slightly, suddenly he didn't know what to say.

Leaving the foot of this mountain, walked to the open space in the northwest, and then stepped on the road built by Xia Zhaoyi and his men.

The freshly dug soil was covered by wind and snow, the ground was smooth and tidy, and the vegetation on both sides had been cut down, forming a long open road with a width of more than four feet.

On the ground, you can often see feldspar slabs driven into the soil, like patches on the ground.

Xia Zhaoyi looked at the stone slabs and said, "I wanted to pave the whole road with these stone slabs, but it's winter and there is not enough time, so I can only use it to repair some potholes and ground subsidence. But the road is dead, Humans are alive, so we should first build a passable road, send a few batches of food, grass and clothing, and take our time for the rest of the time."

"If there is a shortage of manpower, I can dispatch from the south at any time." Shen Lie said.

"That's not necessary," Xia Zhaoyi smiled, "The hidden guards brought by Brother Du have already helped me the most, and the time when I was most short of manpower has passed, and now they are all familiar, eh, Xia Zhaoyi looked forward, his eyes brightened, "They saw us."

Facing the strong wind and heavy snow, nearly a hundred men in the distance are still working with wooden beds of various sizes.

I don't know who said that Miss Ali is back, and the men all looked behind after hearing the sound.

"Let's go!" Xia Zhaoyi smiled at Shen Lie, and drove forward.

"Miss Ali!"

"Miss Ali, look at how fast we are! You were still in Wuhuaerlin when you left, and now we are almost at Hai'anling!"

"If it wasn't for the heavy snow, we could still go faster!"

The men came forward and rushed to say.

"Master?!" Wu Shaoning and other hidden guards saw Shen Lie in the distance, shouted joyfully, and ran towards him quickly, "Master, you are really here!!!"

Du Xuan mentioned it to them before, but they all felt that it was impossible.

Following their words, everyone looked at the man following Xia Zhaoyi, and all of them felt their eyes light up.

"Miss Ali," a man said in a low voice, "this man is so handsome!"

"It seems that Mr. Du Xuan didn't lie to us!"

Xia Zhaoyi smiled and looked around: "Brother Du."

"I'm sleeping, yesterday he looked at the construction plan of the route all night!"

Xia Zhaoyi nodded, and looked back at Shen Lie: "Brother Du is sleeping, let's call him."

"I'll do it if I go," Shen Lie said, "You're not here for a few days, and you must be busy when you come back. You go to work first."

"Alright, then go find him."

Xia Zhaoyi led these men to build roads and build roads. Wherever they were built, they would set up tents to sleep there. If the road section was bad, they would even build wooden houses on the spot.

The north wind was blowing against the roof of the tent, and Du Xuan's snoring was very loud, passing through the tent, as if he wanted to compete with the cold wind.

Shen Lie brought people into the tent, and didn't disturb him at all. Instead, he was sleeping boldly and drooling, which was far from his usual gentle and refined appearance.

Kang Jian and Wu Shaoning looked at the calm Shen Lie, and Kang Jian stepped forward and gently pushed Du Xuan.

Du Xuan was really tired, and it took him a long time to open his eyes. When he saw Shen Lie, Du Xuan thought he was dreaming, and he woke up after a while.

After receiving the warm water from Wu Shaoning, Du Xuan ran outside to gulp and rinse his mouth. After spitting out a few mouthfuls, he came back and drank two more bowls. Then he looked at Shen Lie and raised his hand: "I didn't expect the young master to come here directly. That's it! So, the young master went to Congxin Mansion?"

Shen Lie was looking at the messy clothes in the tent, and turned around when he heard the words: "Well, I'm going to Qingxiang Village first, and then I'm going to Congxin."

"The inn you bought is not bad," Xu Li followed up, "That's where we met Miss Ali."

"That inn," Du Xuan said with a naive smile, "I don't know what the inn looks like, I sent Guo Ze to buy it."

"It's very good," Shen Lie said, "I've worked hard for you these days."

"Where is there, I can learn a lot from A Li's side, benefit a lot, and don't feel hard at all!" After speaking, Du Xuan said again, "Ah, by the way, young master, you came just in time. I want to find you! Do you still remember that after we came out of Yongwu City in Huazhou, we encountered a group of soldiers who wanted to attack Wuqu?"

Shen Lie nodded.

"We thought it was the enemy, but we didn't expect it to be Zheng Guogong's army!" Du Xuan said, "It's Zhao Mingyue from Zhengbei Twelve Mansions!"

Shen Lie frowned lightly: "It's them."

"Because we attacked them and injured a general, Zhao Gong wrote a letter to Ah Li, saying a lot of bad things about us! The letter is still with me!"

Kang Jian said: "But if I remember correctly, we and Zheng Bei have never been involved in any interests, we are not considered enemies, let alone friends. We meet on a narrow road at night, and we fight for our lives. Even if they hurt their people, that is also reasonable. misunderstanding in the

"That being said, Zhao Gong's temperament is really eccentric, young master, do you still remember someone?" Du Xuan said.

"Who?"

"Xia Zhaoyi."

"..."

Du Xuan sighed softly, frowned and said: "It's been a while, Xia Zhaoyi had a marriage contract with Zhao Gong before his death. And this Xia Zhaoyi, she is Ah Li's sister, so this relationship...Young master, you Look, isn't Zhao Gong A Li's brother-in-law?"

"..."

Wu Shaoning thought for a while, and said, "Master, speaking of Zheng Guogong and Dingguo Gongfu, the relationship between the two is indeed very good."

After a while of silence, Shen Lie said lightly: "Fake."

"what?"

"Xia... Zhaoyi, she has never had any relationship with Zhao Gong, but why do you read A Li's letter casually?" Shen Lie looked at Du Xuan.

"No, no, I didn't mean it!" Du Xuan hurriedly said, "I thought it was written to me. This letter was handed over to Wang Fengnian by Zhao Ning, and then sent to Qingxiang Village. It was sent together with my letter , and only the word Zhao Gong was signed on this envelope, and the recipient was not mentioned. After I opened it, I saw that the first sentence did not have a title at the beginning. , I think it to the bone, and there is no title," Du Xuan stopped, and said solemnly, "Master, he said something about us in the letter, and he also mentioned the Jiangzhou incident. His tongue was really vicious and mean, and it was extremely ugly. I'm afraid that Ah Li will read this letter, and she will..."

Shen Lie said in a deep voice: "The Twelve Mansions of Zhengbei are far north of Yong'an Imperial Capital. Why did Zheng Guogong's soldiers and horses come to Huazhou in the south?"

"Uh."

"Yes," Wu Shaoning said, "this is the important point. From the imperial capital to the south, dozens of prefectures in the middle are divided up by Song Zhiyi, Tian Dayao, and Yun Bozhong. Except for the Dazhou province, there are also thousands of mountains, forests and rivers in between. , and Zheng Bei's soldiers came to fight Wuqu in Huazhou? Even if they were defeated, how would they defend? Could it be that they were trapped and unable to move like Zhao Xi was in Peifeng back then?"

"You send the letter to Ali later," Shen Lie looked at Du Xuan, "tell her truthfully that you have finished reading it."

"...I want to give it to her." Du Xuan had an aggrieved face.

"I have never touched the content of this letter," Shen Lie emphasized, "You have to tell her, just say that I don't care to read it."

Du Xuan smiled: "Hey, young master, you are concerned about your own image."

Shen Lie ignored it, and continued: "You write another letter in my name, send it to Zheng Bei, and say, I, Shen Lie, will dare next time."

"The young master wants to form this beam?" Wu Shaoning said.

"Tell them," Shen Lie's voice turned cold, "Either Zhao Gong personally apologizes to me, or don't let me meet their soldiers and horses in the south of Yong'an. I don't have the ambition to compete in the world, but their ambition must not be realized. .”
