Hearing that at this time, Steward Cheng suddenly opened his mouth to pull in, Li Xi and Li Yifeng couldn't help but be stunned.

After coming back to his senses, Rao is Li Xi had already made up his mind to make a big deal about this matter, and at this time, thinking about his way of solicitation, he couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Li Yifeng's heartbeat, not to mention!

Prince, that's the prince of a country, the future emperor! This adult in his own family is just a small Jiupin master book, and in normal times, people would not take such a little sesame official in their eyes at all, but now, maybe this Cheng housekeeper has discovered Li Xi's difference through this incident, and just looking at the relationship between him and Zhao Fengling, the uncle of the small country, he understands that his status in front of the prince is much higher than Zhao Fengling.

So, if he is really willing to recommend his own adult to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince regardless of his previous suspicions for the sake of love...... Oh my God, it's not just a bright future, it's like getting on a tailwind boat! Such a disaster would have been of no benefit to both sides, but if it could be solicited by the steward and agreed here, then not only could the disaster be turned invisible, but also a foolproof line could be set up in the DPRK from now on!

Why not!

Thinking about it, Li Yifeng looked at Li Xi with some excitement, seeing that he was also distracted, and even couldn't help coughing to remind him.

It is conceivable that at this time, as long as Li Xi nodded and agreed, it is very likely that he will have a bright future, and the person who follows him will naturally rise, especially if he can be the first to take effect, when he just had a little sign of becoming an official, he had already taken refuge in Wow! …… As long as he thought of this, Li Yifeng trembled with excitement.

However, in his expectant gaze, after Li Xi was awakened from his trance by a cough, he just turned his head and glanced at him lightly, and then smiled at Steward Cheng, and arched his hand: "Thank you Mr. Cheng for your kindness, but in the opinion of this official, it is safer to send you to prison." ”

At this time, when Li Yifeng heard Li Xi's words, he couldn't help but feel anxious, and he was about to open his mouth to persuade him, but he didn't want Li Xi to suddenly turn his head and glared at him fiercely.

Li Yifeng was stunned, and then he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, frowning and thinking about it at the moment, but he was suddenly shocked, and he was almost scared into a cold sweat on the spot!

Yes, yes, I really want to be an official and want to go crazy, I have really been stupid for decades below, and I would be confused about such an important matter! If people are just cheating, just to coax themselves with words and then take the opportunity to get out, what will happen then?

Take 10,000 steps back, even if the other party really has the intention to woo him, he can't nod so easily. Sister Zihua still knows that she wants to refuse and doesn't sell her body, how can she behave so frivolously?

Thinking of this, Li Yifeng couldn't help but blame himself, thinking that he was still a caring staff member because of the loss of others, and he was so respectful inside and out, but at the critical moment, his performance was actually like this......

Subconsciously raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his brows, and when he looked at Li Xi again, his eyes couldn't help but be filled with a heartfelt respect - adults are so young, but they are so old and calm when they encounter problems, they are really ashamed of a conceited old Jianghu person! It's no wonder that in just a few months, adults can be like divine help, with such achievements now, and now they dare to frustrate the prestige of the uncle of the small country in person!

What does it mean to be a teenager and an old man? What is the wind of the general? This is called a young man! This is called the wind of the general!

And I must have disappointed the adults a little.

At that moment, he couldn't help but admire and feel guilty for Li Xi in his heart, and regret and anger towards himself.

And at this moment, the steward Cheng seemed to have seen through Li Xi's thoughts, and even Li Xi's small action of suddenly turning his head and glaring at Li Yifeng failed to escape his eyes, so he spoke again at the moment: "If the adult is worried about going back on his word, then it is not necessary, the adult can send someone to Chang'an to inquire and see what kind of character I am to become someone, don't brag and say, then when something goes back, someone will not bother to do it!" ”

After a pause, seeing that Li Xi was still silent, he continued: "To tell the truth, Lord Li, the reason why someone came here today and wanted to take away that Wu Ji was because of the order of His Royal Highness the Prince, because that Wu Ji's identity is special, as long as she is held in his hand, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can use this card to threaten Concubine Wu Hui in the palace at any time, so as to ensure that his position as the crown prince will not be deposed." ”

"But now, for the sake of my lord, Cheng can swear that from now on, he will never fight that Wu Ji's idea again, even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince blames him in the future, Cheng will bear it!"

"The reason why this is the case is not that Cheng is greedy for life and afraid of death, but that Lord Li's talent in the face of this matter is too dazzling, your calmness, wit, quick thinking and ruthlessness of decision are rare in Cheng's life, especially when you are still so young...... Therefore, in Cheng's opinion, as long as you are willing to turn to His Royal Highness the Prince, then the value will be far more than a little girl! Master Li, please think deeply! ”

Hearing this, Rao is Li Xi was resolute, but he still couldn't help but nodded, putting aside the question of position, this Cheng Butler's remarks are really sincere and clear, and the temptation is enough, which is really very impressive.

But...... Prince? Li Hong?

I'm sorry, Lao Tzu is a traverser, for you natives of the Tang Dynasty, Lao Tzu can be regarded as a great supernatural power, and he can know the past and the future! Therefore, although I can't remember the name of the next emperor after Xuanzong, it will definitely not be the crown prince Li Hong!

So, the attraction of this wooing plummeted!

If you take into account this empty talk, it is really unbelievable, and the attraction of his moving words to Li Xi has simply dropped to ...... Zero!

Don't look at what he is saying now, his attitude is so sincere and sincere, but it is very likely that he will bite back immediately after returning to Chang'an, after all, people's hearts are separated from their stomachs, who knows what kind of bird this steward is!

Therefore, at the moment, Li Xi just nodded, and then said: "It's still the same sentence, thank you Mr. Cheng for taking a fancy to it, although your proposal is good, but Li Xi is a Tang Dynasty official, and the only person who will be loyal to me for the sake of a little wealth and future is only my Emperor Majesty of the Tang Dynasty, how can he turn his allegiance to others for a little wealth and future?" With the wisdom of Mr. Cheng, why do you insult me like this? ”

The steward Cheng was stunned when he heard this, and immediately, he seemed to hear a hint of nonchalant attitude in Li Xi's tone, and guessed that he was not moved by his proposal at all, and immediately understood in his heart that it would definitely not work to win over.

At that moment, he sighed, and his evaluation of Li Xi in his heart couldn't help but raise a few points again, and then nodded with a look of regret, "Okay, since Lord Li is loyal to His Majesty, it is naturally a good thing, because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the current prince, that is, the future emperor, Lord Li is loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, in fact, he is loyal to His Royal Highness the Prince, this is no difference, but it is a moment of confusion!" ”

Li Xi couldn't help but think to himself when he heard this: This steward saw that he couldn't win him over, and the wind turned around in a flash, and he suddenly pulled back the words he had just solicited, and it was so tight that it didn't leak! Is allegiance to the crown prince the same thing as allegiance to the emperor? When wooing Li Xi, of course, this is not the same thing, but once it fails, it will immediately be another thing...... Even if Li Xi wanted to find some loopholes from his words to attack afterwards, it would be impossible to find them!

With these words alone, Li Xi's evaluation of him in his heart has also been raised to a big level.

And at this time, the steward Cheng continued: "Master Li is a smart person, Cheng won't talk nonsense with you, let's just say it directly, let us go, everyone will be clear from now on, what conditions do you need." ”

Li Xi shook his head with a smile when he heard this, "It's all like this, Steward Cheng still doesn't understand what I mean?" You think I'm going to let you go? ”

Steward Cheng sighed when he heard this, hesitated for a long time, but in the end, he could only look at Li Xi deeply, and he couldn't think of any more words, so he nodded at the moment and said: "Cheng someone knows that Lord Li wants to seize some of our handles, because he is afraid that he will be retaliated against afterwards, this handle, maybe you can find it, and you can also convict Lord Zhao Fengling, but do this...... Become someone and promise that you will definitely regret it in the future! ”

Li Xi smiled, and directly ignored his words of regret or not, and just said, "Is it just possible to find it?" I don't think so! ”

Then he glanced at Li Zao next to him, and nodded at Zhao Fengling, who had fainted on the ground, and said, "Ah Zao, wake him up!" ”

Of course it's easy to wake him up, Li Zao raised his leg and kicked him when he heard this, and Zhao Fengling woke up with an "ah", and then almost subconsciously, he had already shouted, "Don't hit me, don't hit me, please, don't hit me......"

The description was so miserable that the housekeeper couldn't help but turn his face, and his heart was even more disdainful.

Li Xi smiled, Suo squatted down, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Lord Zhao, it turns out that you are also afraid of being beaten!" ”

Zhao Fengling calmed down, and as soon as he looked up, he saw Li Xi, and just heard his words, and the expression on his face at the moment was suddenly extremely exciting, and he wanted to put on a show of his son, but he was afraid of being beaten......

He opened his mouth, pulled back half of the volume, and muttered, "Yes...... Kind, don't let him hit me! ”

Li Xi smiled and nodded, "Okay, I won't let him beat you, and there is no need for it, the people from the yamen are coming soon, as long as you are sent to the yamen, a charge of conspiracy to defraud is enough to make you squat in prison for a few years, in that prison, there is no way to toss people, why bother me to make this effort!" ”

Until this time, Zhao Fengling still couldn't see the situation clearly, and at that moment he couldn't help but shout inwardly: "Don't think about it, let me tell you, my cousin is His Royal Highness the Prince, and my father is the uncle of the dynasty!" You...... Even if you arrest me in prison, my father and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely get me out soon! ”

Li Xi smiled and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, let the official calculate it for you!" You've come from Chang'an this time, and you're afraid that you'll be gone for a month, right? Well, you are a noble son, you must not be used to rushing, if it is an errand to go, hurry up and hurry, even if it is half a month, Shu Road is difficult to walk! This half a month's hard work...... Well, it doesn't seem right, let me think about it......"

"By the way, I remembered, it will take half a month to go, but when your people go back to report the letter, Chang'an will react and send someone to rescue you...... It's going to take a month! Is this a month...... I think that if I say hello, the people in the prison will definitely make you understand what the words 'unforgettable' mean, you say? ”

When Li Xi said this, Zhao Fengling couldn't help but shudder.

Since ancient times, the misery of prison is known to the whole world, and those who enter the prison are all sinners, and the whole group of sinners is often a group of ruthless jailers, because people who are not ruthless enough can't stand the gloomy smell in the prison at all, so in this way, the words in the prison can be imagined.

Although he, Zhao Fengling, has been rich since he was a child, it is impossible for him to know what it is like to be in prison, but he has definitely heard of the misery of prison, so it does not prevent him from being afraid of prison.

Seeing his performance, Steward Cheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and immediately understood Li Xi's plan.

To paraphrase a later sentence to describe the mood of becoming a housekeeper at this moment, that is: not afraid of enemies like wolves, but afraid of teammates like pigs!

The two of them went out of Beijing with hidden identities this time, even if there are some clues that can prove the official identity, they have all been left in the mansion of Beijia Gaoyue in Benzhou, in fact, this is also the subtlety of his housekeeper, I think that even if Li Xi finds out that he and others have stayed in the other driving mansion, he can't openly search the other driving mansion, right?

As long as he can't search, then presumably Gao Yue will never hand over those things that can prove the identity of himself and others, although he may not buy the account of His Royal Highness the Prince, but he will definitely not dare to take the initiative to offend.

In this way, Li Xi has no other way except to be able to do things from the household registration, and such a trivial matter will naturally be difficult for the prince, and even just need to stretch out his hand without Gao Yue to fish out the two of them!

But, but...... Alas!

Sure enough, at this time, Zhao Fengling couldn't help but be frightened, and immediately said, "You...... Don't arrest me, I won't go to prison, I won't go to prison if I die! I am a dignified doctor of the imperial court, if you dare to beat me, you are breaking the law, you are breaking the law! ”

At this time, even if Zhao Fengling was stupid, he knew that as long as he disclosed his identity, then it was not within the jurisdiction of the local government, at most they would escort themselves back to Chang'an, waiting for the court to come and ask for the guilt, and they would definitely not be tortured. As for what charges Li Xi will be charged with once his identity is revealed, and what the consequences will be, he can't care about it at all.

In his mind, anyway, there is a prince behind him, isn't it just a trip to Jiannan Road, what kind of crime can there be, and His Royal Highness the prince can still ignore himself? Is it worth being sent to prison for a month?

Hearing his words, Steward Cheng could only sigh helplessly.

But Li Xi smiled when he heard this, nodded and said: "Okay, very good, Lord Zhao really dares to act boldly, and disdains to do such things as hiding his head and tail, admire, admire!" ”

Then he stood up, clapped his hands, and asked the steward Cheng, "I wonder if Mr. Cheng is willing to leave Shuzhou and go back to Chang'an tonight to ask for reinforcements, or wait until Lord Zhao reveals his identity and be escorted back to Beijing with him?" ”

At this time, Steward Cheng was frustrated, thinking that he didn't expect that he would be defeated by an eighteen-year-old hairy boy today, and he was defeated so completely that he didn't even have the strength to fight back, which was really the first shame in his life!

After hearing this, he knew that no matter which path he chose, in fact, there was no difference, this time it was already a loss, everything had to wait until the matter was stabbed to Chang'an, and now he was gone, and there was no longer any value, so he just arched his hand at Li Xi at the moment, and said: "Whatever, just obey Lord Li's fate." ”

Li Xi smiled and nodded, turned to Li Yifeng and said, "Mr. Li, you go and order it immediately, before the official messenger of the Assassin Shi Yamen arrives, take care of the two of them separately, so as not to say more things that our Mr. Cheng should say on the spur of the moment, and cause something that makes everyone embarrassed." ”

At this point, Li Yifeng didn't have any other ideas, and when he heard the words, he nodded knowingly, and said, "Please rest assured, these two will be handed over to the old man to take care of it." ”

Li Xi nodded, patted Li Zao's shoulder, and said, "Ah Zao, strong!" Let's go, the second brother will accompany you to drink! ”

Li Zao smiled when he heard this, and the brothers took the wine and meat at the door separately, and ate and drank happily in the front hall.

While drinking and waiting for the errand of the assassin Shi Yamen, Li Xi remembered that the matter had probably reached the back house, and he was afraid that Wu Lan would be worried, so he handed over a subordinate to give a few orders, and ordered him to go over and pass on a message, so that Wu Lan did not have to worry, and said that as soon as he had handled the previous things properly, he would go to the backyard immediately.

Then, because he was worried that there were still a few strong men of unknown origin brought by Pei Jun and Zhao Fengling outside the door, he ordered people to go to the door and quietly squeeze out, not only not to alarm them, but also to be careful that they would suddenly notice something wrong and suddenly attack.

After all these orders were over, it happened that Li Yifeng had already arranged to take care of Zhao Fengling and Steward Cheng, and also rushed over. As soon as he came in, he was a big skew, and said with a face full of shame: "The old man is ashamed, Li Lingzhi is hot for a while in a daze, and he is so confused and useless, he is really worthy of the love of the adult, and please punish the adult!" ”
