Chapter Twenty-Five: The Enemy Ten Years Ago Has Come
Sleep and "sleep" are two different meanings.
Although the women of the Tang Dynasty are open, Li Xianhui is not precocious enough to take the initiative to invite her fiancΓ© to make a villain.
Perhaps, she just wants to lie in bed and chat?
"There are mosquitoes on the face, it's weird." , Li Ran touched his red and swollen cheeks, despising his beastly thoughts at that moment.
After all, she's just a thirteen-year-old girl, so she's not in a hurry, she raises it slowly, and it's fun to cultivate it.
ββ¦β¦ It's almost winter, where are the mosquitoes? β
Of course, Li Xianhui didn't bother with the details, she leaned on Li Ran's side and exhaled like an orchid, "Da Lang, my mother seems to be ...... Have an opinion about you. β
ββ¦β¦ Probably, I don't think I'm worthy of you. β
Li Ran hesitated for a second, but did not hide anything, the girl's mind was already sensitive, and Webster's attitude became more and more bright, she felt strange, it was normal.
"No, I think you're good, it's just good." , Li Xianhui is like a little tiger protecting food, and she doesn't allow others to say that Li Ran is not.
With a warm heart, he gently nodded her forehead, "Well, you're also fine...... Don't worry, on your mother's side, I will slowly make her change her attitude. β
Li Ran smiled, he had already planned how to face Wei.
This kind of woman with a strong sense of hierarchy, as long as she grows to the extent that the other party can't look up, she will consciously prostrate under her feet and dare not have half a grudge.
So there is only one goal, hurry up and develop stronger!
ββ¦β¦ Tomorrow, I'll give you a small gift. β
Li Ran touched Xian Hui'er's hair, but found that she had fallen asleep peacefully.
Hey, is this girl testing her brother's discipline...... Looking at her beautiful face and slightly fluttering eyelashes, Li Ran swallowed a mouthful of saliva, pressed the gun, turned around, and closed her eyes.
Early the next morning, Li Xianhui was surprised to find that her embroidered shoes were missing!
"Da Lang, you are so bad." , her pretty face was as red as an apple, shy and anxious.
ββ¦β¦ Xian Hui'er, you think too much. β
Li Ran smiled awkwardly, and suddenly remembered this Tang Dynasty custom, hiding the embroidered shoes of the girl who had not passed the door, which was a sign of courtship.
"Your shoes are old, come, try these new shoes, I've been doing it since the fifth watch."
He pulled out a pair of silver-white silk heels from behind his back, and the upper was inlaid with gold thread, which was as delicate as a work of art.
"Wow, Dalang, it's so beautiful!" , Li Xianhui refused to take it off when she put it on, and shook her white calves excitedly.
"If you like it, but don't wear it too often, it'll grind your feet."
Li Ran smiled and solemnly put away the design of the high heels...... According to the agreement with Princess Taiping, he provided clothing ideas, and that sister was looking for a market, and these days were the time to deliver the manuscript.
Besides, Cheng Bo also needs a meeting gift when he enters Luoyang to visit.
A nice pair of shoes is sure to put that girl in a good mood.
After another five days, Wang Hongyi finally set off for Luoyang, and he brought two carriages with him just for the black material of the complaint...... The groom who pulled the cart was still found by Li Ran.
As soon as the flies in the way left, Li Ran did things more unscrupulously, digging resources such as sand and gravel desperately, half of the road was repaired, half of it was processed and deposited in the Tiandi Bank for value-added, and by the name of road repair, he recruited people, and almost mobilized the strong men around Luling, among which there were many talents who could be recruited, all of whom were secretly included in his command.
More than 20 days later, the beginning of winter was approaching, and Wang Hongyi rushed back with a group of Luoyang envoys in a murderous manner.
Li Ran didn't panic at all, and even looked forward to it a little.
"This surnamed Wang is a bit of a Taoist, and even Junchen has been invited, tsk, this is the rhythm of my father-in-law to death."
Cheng Bo rushed back to Luling and presented the news, Li Ran listened to it with relish, especially the story of Wang Hongyi beating the drum and kneeling to see Wu Zetian, if it was not written into a script, it was simply humiliating.
"Young Master, they will be able to arrive in the afternoon, how can we deal with it?"
"Come on, come on, this time the person in charge of investigating the case, it's not them, this guy is smart but is clever and mistaken, he went to beat the drum and write the book, make things bigger, originally Emperor Wu would hand over this case to the Yushitai to handle, he made such a fuss, all the officials watched, he was born in the Yushitai, in order to avoid suspicion, this case could not be handed over to the Yushitai."
Li Ran smiled, "So the person in charge of the investigation fell to Dali Temple, and coincidentally, the Qin Cha who handled the case this time is still an acquaintance...... In other words, Pei Donglai is also fated to Luling. β
"Young master, it's better to be careful, although Princess Taiping promised to come to Luling, but it won't be there until two days, I'm afraid she won't be able to help us."
"Well, those mad dogs in Yushitai, she doesn't want to provoke them, but it doesn't matter, I invited her to come, it is to prevent Junchen dogs from jumping over the wall and pressing the field, two days late, just to watch the big show."
patted Cheng Bo on the shoulder, and a rare ruthlessness flashed in Li Ran's eyes, "Let's go, it's time to close the net." β
"Yes, young master!" , Cheng Bo's expression was also hideous.
With the arrival of Lai Junchen, who represented the Imperial Observatory, the nature of this event became very different.
Originally, he only planned to use Wang Hongyi's hand to sell a bitter love to reap benefits from Wu Zetian, but now, it is a hearty revenge!
Ten years ago, it was precisely because Li Xian was seized by Yushitai that Wu Zetian had an excuse to abolish his throne.
Now this old man will face another officialdom, the only difference is that Li Ran is here.
In less than three moments, Wang Hongyi appeared on time at the road construction site, standing next to him was Lai Junchen, and Pei Donglai, who was wearing a flying fish suit, and the group immediately blocked the scene and detained all the migrant workers.
"Lord Wang, what do you mean by this?" , Li Ran pretended not to know, and stepped forward to ask for an explanation.
"Humph! The king of Luling connived at you to oppress the people and forcibly recruit migrant workers, which is equivalent to rebellion. β
Wang Hongyi shouted, and no one moved at the scene.
It's embarrassing...... Did you forget, the Qin mission that came this time was all caught by Dali Temple, and he only listened to Pei Dong's dispatch.
ββ¦β¦ Cheng Lilang, where is the king of Luling? Wang Xian ordered you to sue you for 37 crimes, and the emperor ordered me to come and investigate the case. β
Pei Donglai's face was expressionless and businesslike.
"Wronged, my master and I are both great good citizens." , Li Ran continued to act, his expression was extremely exaggerated, "My master is infected with wind and cold and is bedridden, Master Pei has to call the shots for us." β
"Hmph, I think you are afraid of sin and dare not meet people."
Wang Hongyi's face was hideous, and he pointed around the migrant workers, "Tell me, how did King Luling and this guy oppress you?" β
At the scene, there was still no one to bird him.
ββ¦β¦ Ladies and gentlemen, I am Shi Lai Junchen, the head of the Imperial History, if you have grievances, you may as well say bluntly, Dali Temple will handle it impartially! β
is worthy of being the head of the cool officials, Lai Junchen is much more stable than Wang Hongyi, and said loudly, "You don't have to be afraid of the obscenity of King Luling, those who dare to report will be rewarded." β
"This lord, do you mean that your Yushitai also thinks that King Luling is guilty?" , Li Ran raised his eyebrows, and immediately asked, "Then the thirty-seven crimes listed by the Wang County Order to the emperor, and your Yushitai are also involved?" β
"What's the matter, my Yushitai is responsible for supervising hundreds of officials, and I will not forgive those who violate the laws and regulations of the Tang Dynasty."
Lai Junchen was slightly stunned, and he opened his mouth to come.
"Very well, remember your words...... Those who violate the laws and regulations of the Tang Dynasty will not be forgiven! Li Ran smiled and finally stopped pretending to be stupid.
What he was waiting for was that Junchen jumped back, didn't lead this guy to the bait, and just cleaned up Wang Hongyi, how could the hatred of ten years ago be repaid?
