Lord Hou, you have been flopped again

Chapter 797
Three years later.

Prime Minister Tong Siyi went south to inspect the people's sentiments on behalf of the emperor.

After hearing the news, officials from all over the south rushed to greet him.

He was originally a high-ranking prime minister, but now there are even rumors that the Empress Dowager has asked the emperor to propose marriage to the eldest princess Di Lan, and will soon refer to her marriage.He also said that he was not recruiting a son-in-law, but that the eldest princess was getting married.

For the courtiers, this was a great honor, and the entire Tong family became relatives of the emperor.

After inspecting one or two cities, he was feted by a bunch of officials all day long, and he couldn't see the actual people's sentiments. Tong Siyi simply changed the inspection route and changed the clothes similar to ordinary people, and only picked a few people who were close to him. entourage followed.

The past few days were going well.But when they were going to a certain village, Tong Siyi and his party got lost in the forest.

When he couldn't find anyone to ask for directions, Tong Siyi saw a simple wooden house ahead, which looked like a small tea shop.

"My lord," said the attendant, "why don't you go there to rest first, and then ask someone how to get out."

Tong Siyi nodded, "Alright."

The weather was hot, and they had been walking in the mountains and forests for a long time, and their mouths were dry, and they needed to drink some water to rest their feet.

A group of people walked over.

Although the tea shop is simple and narrow, it is carefully built. There are a few strings of wind chimes made of shells hanging at the door, adding a bit of elegance.

There are not many tables and chairs placed outside, but some patterns are also thoughtfully carved, which shows that the owner of this place is not suffering from the poor life in the countryside, but enjoys the joy of suffering and enjoys it with peace of mind.

Compared with a tea shop, this place is more of a home, and by the way, it provides a resting place for mountain tourists.

Upon discovering this, Tong Siyi's long-standing iceberg-like handsome face had a faint smile.

No one greeted the guests, and the attendant shouted outside, "Master, do you have any tea?"

After waiting for a while, no one came out.

The entourage went in to look again, but there was still no one inside.When he came out, he saw a piece of paper pasted at the door.

It reads, "The tea is on the west side, and the guest officials are at their own discretion. The master has gone hunting in the mountains. If the guest officials are willing to wait, they can taste the local game with the master."

The content looked fresh, so the attendant took down the note and sent it to Tong Siyi.

"My lord, look." The attendant said, "This should be left by the master."

Tong Siyi saw that the owner was really interesting.

And looking at the delicate handwriting, it looks like it was written by a woman.

It is indeed extraordinary that a woman living in this mountain and forest can still have such a state of mind and elegance.

"My lord, please have some tea."

Another attendant had brought tea from the west side and poured several bowls.

I don't know if the owner used tea, or because they were too thirsty, they thought the tea was extraordinarily sweet, better than the tea offered by the imperial court.

After drinking the tea, he waited for a while, planning to ask the owner of the house for directions. Tong Siyi also wanted to meet this interesting person.

But hunting is not a one-and-a-half-hour thing. After waiting for a long time, the owner did not come back.

At this time, they saw a chaif passing by.

Tong Siyi nodded to a follower.

The entourage walked over and said to Chai Fu, "Brother, we got lost in the mountains and forests, do you know which direction to go to get out of the mountains?"

Chai Fu pointed in one direction and said, "Go north along this road, and you will see a bamboo forest, then go west, and you can go out after walking a mile."

The entourage was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, brother."

"no, I'm fine."

Chai Fu laughed, and when he was about to leave, he saw a young man with a very handsome appearance approaching, and said politely, "Do you know who the owner of this house is?"
