334: The heart of defense is indispensable

Cui Min heard him ask, but he just shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "Why can't I go?" ”

Li Yi frowned: "The place in the Criminal Department, as an imperial historian, are you so good to go casually?" ”

Cui Min was dumbfounded for a while, and he was a little speechless. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After a while, he coughed lightly and pointed at himself: "The lower official took a leave of absence today, not to go to the Criminal Department as a royal historian. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the back again, where Xue Chengjiao's carriage was: "She went alone, and the lower officials were not at ease." ”

Li Yi snorted.

What does the heart say about this?

Is the Criminal Department a place that eats people?

She didn't go alone, didn't she still have herself with her all the way?

As he thought so, displeasure crept up on his face.

It's just that before he could ask in a deep voice, Yan Sang had already come over from behind.

Cui Min turned his face to look at her: "What's wrong?" ”

Yan Sang squatted outside the sedan chair and saluted: "The county lord called the slave maid to ask, why don't you leave?" ”

Cui Min spread his hands and looked at Li Yi.

Li Yi choked on all his words.

He touched his nose, and the thought crossed his mind a few times.

Cui Min's thoughts, because he had deliberately inquired about Ying Tianfu before, he still knew a little.

And Cui Min secretly protected the county lord, and he also knew it.

It is estimated that if he really doesn't ask Cui Min to go today, Cui Min won't call the county lord to go.

Thinking like this, I already have a conclusion in my heart.

Isn't it just a trip to the criminal department? What's the big deal, he instigated and brought people away, and if the official wants to impeach, he is also Cui Min, and if there is anything, it is not his turn to stand up.

So he raised his eyebrows and glanced at Yan Sang: "It's nothing, let's go." ”

After finishing speaking, he lowered the sedan curtain and said no more.

Yan Sang saluted Cui Min again, and then turned back to Xue Chengjiao's carriage.

Cui Min was at the forefront, and he didn't say anything more along the way.

After walking for more than a quarter of an hour, Cui Min's horse stopped outside the yamen of the criminal department.

He turned over and dismounted, waiting for Li Yi to step down from the sedan chair.

The horse was naturally led away, and he didn't need to worry about it.

When Xue Chengjiao got off the carriage, she glanced around.

saw that Cui Min and Li Yi were already waiting on the steps, so he led the girl over.

Li Yi lowered his voice: "The county lord will go to see him later, don't worry, if you have anything to say, it's good to make it clear at once." In the coming days, he will be imprisoned and locked up, and he is not an ordinary criminal, and it will not be so easy to see his family again. ”

Xue Chengjiao always felt that he had something to say, so he subconsciously glanced at Cui Min.

Seeing Cui Min nodding at her almost invisibly, she felt a little more confident in her heart.

"I see, thank you Master Li for reminding me," she took two steps back, "can you take me to see Second Uncle?" ”

Li Yi snorted and led the two of them inside, without further words.

In the past, the house where Li Yi rested was in the back hall of the second courtyard.

The house is slightly to the left, and when Xue Chengjiao arrived, he roughly swept the layout of this place and classified it as the left wing room in the house.

Li Yi stopped and pointed there: "The person is in that house, the county lord will go by himself, I won't go." ”

As he spoke, he didn't forget to glance at Cui Min.

Of course, Cui Min understood what he meant, so he reached out and patted Xue Chengjiao on the shoulder: "You go by yourself, I'll wait for you outside, Yan Sang shouldn't bring it in, Uncle Xue must have something to tell you, you brought someone, I'm afraid he won't say it." ”

Xue Chengjiao bit her lower lip, obviously still a little afraid.

Li Yi saw it in his eyes and felt very interesting.

Fear?

The person in the house is her own uncle, why does she behave like this?

Is it true that she has been bullied too many times in the past, or is it - Xue Wanhe is telling the truth, she has a weak heart.

Li Yi's gaze kept wandering on Xue Chengjiao's body.

Cui Min had been observing him, and when he saw him like this, he couldn't help frowning, and urged Xue Chengjiao: "It doesn't matter, Master Li and I are outside, it's okay." ”

As he spoke, his eyes kept sweeping over Li Yi's body.

Of course, Xue Chengjiao noticed it, so she settled down, clenched her fists, and hummed in a deep voice, and then explained a few words to Yan Sang before going to the house alone.

When she pushed the door open and entered the house, and the door closed again, Cui Min called Yan Sang.

Yan Sang turned around and looked at him: "Does the uncle have any orders?" ”

Cui Min pointed to the door: "You go to the door and listen." ”

Yan Sang was stunned for a moment, and then understood what he meant.

He and Li Yi are people with status, and since they can't go in, of course it is impossible to stand at the door and listen to the movement in the house.

But I'm really not at ease, so it's best to ask her to stand at the door and listen to the movement.

So Yan Sang belched, lifted the hem of her skirt slightly, made up the steps, and stood at the door.

Li Yi laughed: "Since you are so worried, why don't you accompany the county lord to go in?" ”

Cui Min glanced at him and smiled back: "Since Master Li is so curious, why don't you just ask directly?" ”

Li Yi gasped when he called him, and embarrassment flashed across his face.

Cui Min didn't want to embarrass him, he just met someone and said something.

If it is to a person like Wang Fang, he can confront him without being humble or arrogant, after all, Wang Fang can't do anything to him for a while, but it is absolutely impossible to speak out like this.

But if it is for people like Li Yi and Wan Yunyang, many times, there will be unexpected gains from open and honest conversations.

Cui Min paused slightly: "Actually, Master Li should know, if you ask me again, maybe there will be a different answer?" Why didn't the adults ask? I'm curiousβ€”" he deliberately dragged his voice, "what kind of mentality did the lord ask me in the county lord's mansion?" ”

Li Yi's expression froze: "You are really smart." ”

Cui Min laughed: "My lord has won the prize." ”

"Master Cui," Li Yi shouted, "Have you ever heard of the four words Huiji will be injured?" ”

Cui Min's heart sank.

These four words are not good words.

His face darkened: "What do you mean, my lord?" ”

Li Yi shook his head: "I don't mean anything else, it's just that Lord Cui is too guarded, which is not necessarily a good thing." ”

Cui Min will not relax because of his understatement.

Li Yi has been walking around with his uncle several times recently, and he also sees it in his eyes, but he doesn't know the purpose.

He also heard his uncle say that Li Yi and Wan Yunyang can be regarded as good brothers, and don't look at the difference between the two of them is nearly ten years old, but they can have a deep friendship and are like siblings, which is incomparable to anyone in the Manchu Dynasty.

Except for Wan Yunyang, Li Yi has friends with almost everyone, but he has no deep friendship with anyone.

He was suddenly so enthusiastic with his uncle, who knows what he had?

Therefore, whenever Cui Min sees him, he will always inadvertently be a little more guarded.

At this time, hearing him say this, his brows tightened: "The heart of guarding against people is indispensable after all." ”
