Chapter 82: Time and Place
Xuanyuan Qinghe didn't know why Wan Zhi had such an idea, so he persuaded: "Don't be too aggressive, let's call the young lady out first, what do you see?" ”
"Of course, you have to listen to the prefect, and I'll clean up that group of people in a short time." Wan Zhi immediately said, and his attitude was also very sincere.
But under the vision of Xuanyuan Qinghe's invisible face, the corners of Wanzhi's mouth were crooked, revealing a sneer.
If Xuanyuan Qinghe saw it, this terrifying smile would make people feel shivering, and there would definitely be some plan.
Xuanyuan Qinghe didn't want to continue thinking about it, so far, take one step at a time.
When he was about to pick up the dishes, his right hand holding the chopsticks stopped in mid-air, looking at the devastated dining table, Xuanyuan Qinghe didn't know how to put the chopsticks.
Xuanyuan Qinghe originally wanted to kill a few dishes to eat, so he found that whether it was rice or vegetables, even if it was soup, there was no left, and it was no exaggeration to say that the dishes did not need to be washed.
I saw Cui Qi looking full of wine and food, leaning on the chair, stroking his already propped stomach, and sighing slightly.
In that way, that feeling, as if I had just eaten the delicacies of the mountains and seas, was extremely enjoyable.
Xuanyuan Qinghe had no choice but to put down his chopsticks and stare at Cui Qi with a resentful look to express his anger.
Wan Zhi didn't find that the food was long gone, and looked at Xuanyuan Qinghe put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said with a little doubt: "Why don't adults eat it, these dishes are delicious?" ”
Xuanyuan Qinghe narrowed his gaze, looked at each other, and did not speak, but pointed at the dinner table wordlessly.
Wan Zhi looked at it in surprise and couldn't help but exclaim, "Who did this!" ”
Not long after chatting with Xuanyuan Qinghe, I didn't have time to take care of eating, I thought I would be able to eat two bites, but I didn't know if I didn't see it, and I was startled when I saw it.
This table is as if it has been eaten by a hundred people at the same time, and it is no exaggeration to say that there is not even any scum left.
Wan Zhi also knew why Xuanyuan Qinghe put down the dishes and chopsticks, and looked at Cui Qi in the same way, just because he had an urge to hit someone.
If it weren't for the suppression, almost all of them would already want to do it, looking at this guy's full of wine and food, Wan Zhi had to give him a thumbs up, and he wouldn't be strangled to death!
After a while, the stomachs of the two people who had not eaten began to growl, and Cui Qi also heard it, so he wondered: "What kind of sound is this, could it be that there are small insects in the room?" ”
He also looked around carefully, and didn't send anything, but where did the sound come from, Cui Qi was puzzled.
"Your uncle, how much did you eat yourself? Isn't there a count? Wan Zhi really couldn't bear it, and he didn't care whether his official position was bigger or smaller than him, so he scolded directly.
Cui Qi looked confused, and was scolded inexplicably, and the more he thought about it, the more he didn't understand. Then looking at the appearance of the two of them, and then at the dinner table that had been swept away, he seemed to understand something.
"But I remember, you two seem to have eaten?" Cui Qi thought about it for a long time, and remembered some of it dizzily, so he made excuses.
Xuanyuan Qinghe didn't deny it, but asked with a hint of doubt: "I did eat it, I just started to taste it, but you are really a cow!" Is this belly of yours a bottomless pit, how can you eat all the dishes on this table? ”
"You can't be so fast, didn't you secretly drugged us while we were chatting, and after we were stunned, you moved all the food away, and then you were pretending to be like this, just to eat alone secretly?" Wanzhi suddenly realized.
These words shocked everyone in the room, and Cui Qi was directly stupid, because he couldn't believe what he said.
Xuanyuan Qinghe sighed in his heart: "With the ability to make up stories like this, with such the ability to think, he really deserves to be a talent!" ”
"I didn't, okay, I admit that I just ate more, but not as good as you say, if this is the case, I would have gone to the Supervision Department a long time ago!" Cui Qi really couldn't bear it anymore, and said weakly counterattacked.
"If it weren't for the prefect here, I would have wanted to beat you, otherwise my stomach wouldn't be hungry." Wanzhi stroked his already hungry stomach and said with great annoyance.
When Cui Qi heard this, he also looked very helpless, looking at the empty stomachs of the two of them, he also had some self-blame.
So he decided, and said to the two of them at the same time: "Otherwise, I'll go to the kitchen to get it again, can you wait a while?" ”
"You?" The two said in a questioning tone at the same time, obviously not believing in Cui Qi's cooking skills.
Cui Qi looked his head upwards and said very arrogantly, "Me? What's wrong with me, don't think I can just eat, the food I cook is a must, the kind you may not even imagine! ”
It's as if you're saying that if you can't eat my food, it's a fatal loss, and it's your own fault.
"Alright, go ahead, get it quickly!" Xuanyuan Qinghe couldn't say anything, because his little belly began to "wail" again.
Cui Qi left without looking back, came to the kitchen, took his kitchen knife, and muttered to himself: "I don't usually cook, I will scare you when I cook, you can take a look!" ”
The two of them sat in the room with empty stomachs, and for a while it became that kind of embarrassment, and the two of them didn't know what to say, only the uncompetitive stomach seemed to be gurgling.
He protested, saying that he was hungry and wanted to eat.
Suddenly, a yaya who was standing at the door on duty rushed in, and hurriedly ran to Wanzhi and said, "Two adults, there is a letter, in front of the yamen, two adults take a look." ”
"Did you say it was for whom?" Wanzhi immediately asked.
"I don't know, the envelope is here, let's see it for yourself."
When the man had finished speaking, he took out the envelope from his waist, placed it on the table neatly, and left on his own.
Xuanyuan Qinghe picked up the envelope, tore open the seal, and put the letter on the table for the two of them to read together.
The contents of the envelope read: "Tomorrow at noon, by the clear spring outside the city gate, exchange hostages, do not make any small moves, otherwise you will bear the consequences, remember!" ”
Xuanyuan Qinghe finally saw the reply, and he could finally relax, according to what the letter said, tomorrow according to what was explained, then Li Xiaoran should be able to come back.
After reading it, Wan Zhi felt incredible, because according to Wan Zhi's plan, Lu Jia was to postpone it as much as possible, and then cause Xuanyuan Qinghe's anger to finally complete his plan.
But I didn't expect that it had only been a few days, and Xuanyuan Qinghe itself did not have much reaction.
But he was going to release him at noon tomorrow, which was too fast, and the most incomprehensible thing for Wan Zhi was that Lu Jia and the others didn't listen to their words.
"They finally came to reply, so they can come back tomorrow to Li Xiaoran, it's really good!" Xuanyuan Qinghe said in surprise.
Xuanyuan Qinghe has never been able to have such a happy mood after seeing a letter, and the thought of seeing Li Xiaoran again, such cute movements and expressions make people feel so sweet.
"What if they're trapping, or if they're deliberately luring us in and setting a trap to kill us!" Wan Zhi said with another kind of thinking, inexplicably.
Xuanyuan Qinghe didn't know why he thought like this, how could he think like this, and his thinking like this was very incomprehensible.
"Ignore him for now, if it's a trap, we can send someone to take a look first, and we can go to the squatting point tonight and investigate carefully, right?" Xuanyuan Qinghe said very clearly.
"They are so desperate to change people, there must be some conspiracy, and it is possible that the person we captured who claimed to be the third master has some clues in his hands, so we can't put him back so quickly."
Wanzhi can only say this abnormally, otherwise, Wanzhi's so-called "perfect" right, the plan will be in vain.
"Didn't you just say that as long as you can call the young lady out, you can do anything, it doesn't matter, what are you going to do?" After Xuanyuan Qinghe finished speaking, he felt very inexplicable about the person in front of him.
Wanzhi also felt that what he said was a little too much, so he immediately added: "I'm just doing this just in case, if they have any plot against us, it won't be good." ”
Xuanyuan Qinghe felt inexplicable, and his reaction now was simply outrageous, feeling that what he said just now and what he said now were completely two people.
Xuanyuan Qinghe put his face on his face, used his official authority, and said calmly: "No matter, let's save the young lady first, and then talk about other things, will they be able to run away, or can they run away?" ”
Wan Zhi originally wanted to say something again, but when he saw Xuanyuan Qinghe's appearance, he held back the words he had already thought about.
Xuanyuan Qinghe looked at Wanzhi and didn't respond, thinking that he agreed, so he said: "If you are really not at ease, you can send someone to the location now, and take a good look to see if there is any real danger." ”
Wanzhi has no choice, after all, Xuanyuan Qinghe has already spoken, if he still wants to say it deliberately, then there is a problem.
"Okay, then do as you do." Wanzhi nodded in response, but his smile was a little strange.
A smile that seems to be approved, and a smile that seems to be disapproving makes people feel unconvinced, and even makes people afraid.
Xuanyuan Qinghe didn't see this smile, and he didn't care about it, and continued to wait for Cui Qi to cook a meal, and returned to the other courtyard after eating.
After returning to the farewell hospital, I came to tell Ling'er that there was already news of Li Xiaoran, so that Ling'er didn't have to worry too much.
