Not long after, Zheng Jin took his shirt and whispered to Li Tong that a team had already entered the mansion to stand by, and if anything happened, he would be able to rush into the West Garden in a moment.

Li Tong and Yang Siqiao avoided it for a while, and when they returned, the girl had already put on new clothes, but the new clothes were also quickly soaked, just to hide her posture a little. His attitude was also respectful and cooperative, and he did not try to escape again.

Li Tong thought about it, and decided to return to the Hezhou Pavilion to interrogate the girl, the outer house was full of people, and it was not as quiet as the West Garden.

Returning to the pavilion on the river island again, Li Tong stepped into it and found that in addition to the traces left by Yang Siqiao's previous rummaging, the house was still very clean and tidy, but there were few utensils, and it looked very plain.

"How long have you been in this house?"

Li Tong took a tour of the house, found that it was full of life, and turned his head to look at the girl standing in the corner.

"When I came, it was only early spring......

The girl replied in a low voice, "Originally, I thought this was just an abandoned garden, and I didn't come here when a craftsman renovated the east house......

This statement is more credible, this royal mansion is separated, and the east mansion has a complete layout and is enough for living. The West Garden was expanded on the basis of the original mansion, and according to Zheng Jin's inquiry, the original location of the West Garden was that there were still a few households, and it was later incorporated into the scope of the palace.

Li Tong and his brothers went out of the cabinet, and it was only after the year that they discussed, and after several tug-of-wars and then determined the location of the mansion, the process was not lacking in haste. The mansions of the kings were set up under the supervision of the right school office of the camp superintendent, and they didn't even have time to build a new mansion, which shows that the urging behind them is very urgent. In this case, it is normal that the palace has not had time to be completely renovated.

"Who are you? Fugitive slave or criminal household? ”

Li Tong asked again, these two types of people are the most sensitive, easy to lead people to slander, like Wang Bo in the early Tang Dynasty because of his secret and private murder of fugitive slaves, not only did he deserve to die for his own crimes, but even his father was directly demoted from the Beijing official, although Wang Bo was pardoned and saved his life, but finally died on the journey to visit his father.

"I don't, I don't! Really, I didn't lie to you, I'm not a fugitive slave, I'm not a sinner! ”

The girl waved her hand again and again, and seemed to be a little struggling not to prove her words.

"If it's not these two categories, then you're an out-of-state streamer? There must always be a reason, why are you homeless and living in other people's homes? ”

Li Tong sat down and looked at the girl with interest: "I saw you crossing the door through the window earlier, you are very agile, and you are also proficient in water, but you are not an ordinary person." If there is a falsehood, then go to the official and defend yourself. ”

The girl lowered her head, her lips pursed, her back against the wall, and the edge of her feet wrapped in cloth socks had accumulated a puddle of water, looking very weak and pitiful.

But he didn't find out the identity of the other party, but Li Tong didn't feel any pity because of this, and the reason why he interrogated secretly was mainly to avoid causing more trouble. Otherwise, he would have sent someone to notify the Hegong County Party to escort people away, and by the way, impeached Jin Wuwei for eating dry rice and not doing anything just with money, and even the private residence of King Zong was forbidden to enter and exit.

Although the girl is delicate and bright, she is far from worthy of his pity. With his status, as long as his life is safe, beauty and the like are not scarce enjoyment.

"I, I ......"

The girl lowered her head to avoid Li Tong's scrutinizing gaze, and she was crying again, looking very sad: "I'm really not a villain, but it's not good to tell the truth...... If you let me go, I will definitely repay you in the future! Your family is such a big mansion, it must be powerful, but if it really alarms the government, there will really be trouble, I disturbed your family, I really don't want to be involved, please ......"

"You threaten me? Guess I'm afraid? ”

Li Tong sneered: "It's not that I can't get into trouble, let's talk about it." It's not far away now, and I'm not going to leave you, a water ghost, overnight in my mansion. ”

"You are so stubborn! I heard them call you king, but, but ......."

The girl was still bowing her head and hesitating, and Zheng Jin, who was in charge of sorting out the items she had left in the attic house, had already walked quickly, glanced at the girl, and then approached Li Tong and whispered.

After Li Tong heard this, he stood up, raised his hand and said to Yang Siqiao: "Take her and go to the residence of the local official Yang Zhirou." I want to ask Yang Shangshu, have you ever hated him since he lived in Fang? Dare to let the thief into my house! ”

"Y-How do you know ......?"

When the girl heard this, she immediately raised her head, her pretty face was full of surprise, and she turned back against the wall, waving her hand again and again: "I don't, I don't go, I can't go back...... There are no good people in their family! My aunt hated me, and my cousin forced me...... I'm going to find Aye, and Shangshu isn't my uncle......"

Li Tong felt that this girl didn't have much scheming, and seeing that she was frightened, it didn't look like a hypocrisy, I thought it would be a strange woman like a thief like Nie Yinniang, but I didn't expect it to be a lady who ran away from home.

"What is your relationship with Yang Men, you will know when you enter his mansion. Even if there is no friendship, I am helping him to run a thief, and he should thank me. ”

Li Tong sneered again: "Trouble? Yang Zhirou is no more than the Queen Mother's cousin, he made the family enter my door without permission, that is the real trouble! ”

The girl sat on the ground, hid her face and cried: "I am not from the Yang family, and I don't want to have anything to do with his family...... My surname is Tang, and I traveled far away to raise me to my uncle's house...... I didn't take the Yang family's things, they were all my mother's relics...... I beg the king to let me go, I will go to find Aye, and I will not go back to the Yang family......"

Hearing the girl's sad cry, Li Tong suddenly felt that his head was big. Although he is not a warm-hearted person, he is really not used to bullying the weak for fun, Zheng Jin saw the mark of the Yang family from the girl's items, she was easy to inquire, and after entering the workshop, she also had several contacts with the Yang family.

But the girl's words are unknown, and she really can't be sure of her exact identity.

Yang Zhirou was born in the Hongnong Yang family, and Wu Zetian's mother Yang is in the same branch. When people are noble, there is naturally no shortage of relatives to take refuge, so the Zunxian Fang, where his residence is located, is inhabited by many members of the Yang clan.

Seeing that it was still some time before the door of the fang was closed, Li Tong instructed Zheng Jinsu to go to Zunxian Fang to inquire for a while, while he and Yang Siqiao still stayed here to watch the girl.

"King, this little lady is really crying sadly......"

Yang Siqiao stood behind Li Tong, and saw the girl curled up on the ground and sobbing incessantly, her face showed a little unbearable, as if she should be comforted.

She all said you were ugly, and you still pity her?

Li Tong glanced at Yang Simiao, who looked sneering, turned his head and sighed again in his heart, and then said: "You have also been living in my garden house for many days, I will not pursue it much, don't cry and disturb people anymore." You promise to settle down here, and I'll lend you the house temporarily, even though it's a warm summer, and it's too uncomfortable to be damp. ”

"I—I'm just sad, where is the crying? To cry is to grin and beat your chest, it's very ugly ......"

The girl's crying stopped, turned her back to face the wall, wiped her tears and choked up: "If you want to send me back to the Yang family, I will escape." If I can't escape, I'm going to tell them that your family has imprisoned me here all these days...... Do you see if you're in trouble? Last year, there was also a king in Beifang who was arrested by the government, you can't scare me! ”

Li Tong originally had a sense of superiority, but when he heard this, he suddenly felt that his mentality collapsed, my Li family sect king is worthless, and it has been spread so widely, it's really fucking pitiful!

"Ah Jiu, go out and dig a pit!"

He snorted coldly and strode out of the room.

Yang Siqiao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and said to the girl again: "The little lady is more divided, otherwise the king will really bury you!" ”

After finishing speaking, he also hurriedly walked out of the room, followed behind the king, looked left and right, pointed to the opposite garden and asked, "The king, do you want to dig there?" ”

Li Tong didn't look at him angrily, but he couldn't help laughing, turned around Hezhou and paced up again, looked at him for a moment, pointed to the southwest corner of the garden, and asked Yang Simao: "Forbidden Dog Fang, does your grandpa have anything to do with it?" The garden is too wide, it is difficult to prevent banning, and raising some fierce dogs can also save manpower. ”

The so-called eagle dog, there are both eagle workshops and naturally dog workshops in the ban, which are raised daily for safari purposes. No matter what the identity of the girl is, she always reminded Li Tong that the security of the house should be paid more attention.

Although the palace also has relatives and guards, they are all directly selected from the forbidden army, and it is difficult to figure out whether they have been manipulated or installed, after all, his enemies are mainly in the system of the forbidden army in the north and south. Being infiltrated into the house is still a small probability event, but if the ears and eyes are deep enough to live, it is really restless.

Li Tong is not very comfortable letting these people go deep into the house, think about it carefully, at this stage, dogs are more reliable than people. Even if you can't fight the enemy, you can still make two noises and give a little warning, so that you won't be dazed by someone sneaking into the garden house for so long.

"Yes, yes, the slave will contact the forbidden world tomorrow and send it?"

Yang Siqiao nodded hurriedly and asked.

Li Tong nodded, feeling a little better, and felt that he had a few advantages in the game with his grandmother: there are thousands of precautions, and it is difficult to prevent thieves. If you kick me out of the palace, I won't be able to dig a corner? Where there is injustice, where there is resistance, these eunuchs inside and outside are all loyal servants of my Li family!

The girl who remained in the pavilion stopped sobbing at this moment, and she opened the crack in the door to see that the pair of masters and servants outside were just pacing and gossiping, and did not really dig a hole, and then she exhaled softly.

When she saw the two of them walking away, she quietly retreated to her former habitual room, took off her wet clothes, found a clean dress to change into, covered with a slim beard with lapels, wiped off the moisture from her hair, and tied it into a small bun and fixed it with a bamboo hairpin, which was very heroic and sassy.

When she had finished changing her clothes, she returned to the main hall, and saw through the crack in the door that the rich woman who had left had returned to report to the young and handsome but snarling king, hoping to inquire about herself.

Seeing this scene, the girl's heartbeat increased again, and she didn't know what the king would do with her. When I was in a panic, I saw that the king had already strode towards this journey, and the setting sun sprinkled on the radiant face, as if it was itself glowing, and people couldn't help but stare at it.

Seeing that the king was getting closer and closer, the girl was even more panicked, her fingers quietly pinched the corners of her clothes, and her silver teeth bit her lower lip, her throat was tight and she didn't know what to say, so she saw that the king had a bright smile on his face, and said to her through the door: "Don't worry, don't worry, stay in my house, no one will disturb you, stay as long as you want!" ”
