Chapter 233: Old Friends

The two are used to getting along like this, and Xiao Man also knows it, so he didn't pay attention to it, but pulled Lu Lu to the corner, ready to discuss the next thing with him.

This Yuncheng looks prosperous and interesting, but it is actually full of dangers, Lu Li has not participated in government politics for a long time, does he really want to make an exception this time?

Lu Li saw through Xiao Man's worries, he patted the other party's hand, and said softly: "Don't worry, that person is not in the city, and our main purpose is to find out the whereabouts of that group of people half a year ago, it won't be too dangerous." ”

After speaking, he put his arm around the woman's shoulder, "It's not too early, you go and rest first." ”

"Lu Li." Xiao Man was reluctant to grab his hand, a pair of beautiful wrinkles, and looked at him worriedly, "You must not act rashly, even if there are so many secret guards, you have to ensure your safety, you know?" ”

She knows the temperament of the other party, since she wants to participate in this matter, then Lu Li will definitely do his best to do this thing well, no matter what kind of difficult situation he falls into, he will definitely help Wei Xiuyuan catch that person and ask things clearly.

Maybe in the eyes of others, Lu Li's bravery and fearlessness deserve praise, but in Xiaoman's eyes, the more heroic Lu Li is, the more worried she is.

"Okay, I promise you, I'll be absolutely careful." Lu Li saw that she refused to leave for a long time, so he had to soften his tone and continue to coax: "Don't worry, I will definitely be safe, Xiaoman, you have to believe me, okay?" ”

After several persuasions, Lu Li finally persuaded Xiaoman to rest, and Xia Wanrou over there also happened to be out of the room.

Lu Li looked sideways at Wei Xiuyuan, and the other party also looked at him tacitly.

"I've told you everything that happened, and there's nothing to hide." The maintenance eye took the initiative to say: "What about you? Are you hiding anything from me? ”

Lu Li laughed a little helplessly, "Do you think everyone is you?" I had to wait until I got to my destination. ”

As he spoke, Wei Xiuyuan walked over with a smile, hooked Lu Li's shoulder, and led the person in the direction of the study, "Let's go, let's discuss it carefully, what to do next, and the defense of this mansion, it has to be arranged together, and what will go wrong in the future." ”

In order not to arouse the suspicion of outsiders, he even brought his own daughter here, so this mansion must be defended, in case it arouses the suspicion of others, it is not just that he did not complete the emperor's order.

The two brothers went to the study for an afternoon, and they did not care about the exhaustion of their bodies, and even the passage of time was ignored, until at sunset, when someone knocked on the door, and they suddenly realized that so much time had passed.

"I'll keep a vigil tonight." Lu Li got up with a grim expression: "We are not familiar with the situation in Yuncheng, you have to find a trustworthy person to help us get familiar with the situation as soon as possible, otherwise we will be exposed before the enemy is alert." ”

Wei Xiuyuan patted him on the shoulder, "I'm even ready for the house, can I forget about people?" Rest assured, according to the time we agreed, the man should have arrived in the evening. ”

Lu Li nodded, but he didn't dare to relax for a moment.

He had a vague premonition that this time was extraordinary, and it seemed that he had to be vigilant at all times in the coming time, and there was still a war without gunpowder waiting for the two of them.

The spatial layout of the house is exactly the same as that of the Lu Mansion, so the two of them didn't need to be instructed by others, so they drove to the dining room with ease.

Everyone in the house had already sat down, Wangshu and Zijin were next to each other, and the little pink doll was sitting together. Lu Wangshu, who was originally very quiet, met with Wei Zijin at this time, and whispered in a low voice, but the voices of the two were very low, and they couldn't hear what they were talking about.

"Look, Wangshu is talking to Zijin." Xia Wanrou took Xiao Man's hand, leaned closer and whispered, "It seems that our family's Zijin is quite capable, and he can provoke Wangshu to say so much." ”

From the time they came in to the present, the two little dolls have been talking together the rest of the time, except for the first time when they looked at their parents, and they seemed to be very intimate. In the past, when I went to Beijing, although the two families were next to each other, and they also went to each other's houses from time to time, they had never seen such a scene.

Xiao Man smiled softly, "I don't know what the two children are talking about, they have been talking for so long." ”

"Who knows." Xia Wanrou also smiled, with unconcealed joy in the corners of her eyes.

If this goes on for a long time, maybe Zijin who Wangshu can also teach will be quieter.

And after this scene was seen by the two men, Lu Li didn't say anything, but he was still very surprised in his heart, not to mention Wei Xiuyuan, he quietly ran between the two children like a child who had not grown up, trying to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two, but before he could succeed, he was discovered by Wangshu.

The little doll who was a few years old looked at him coldly, "Uncle Wei, it's not polite for you to do this. ”

Wei Xiuyuan didn't want to fight, he was "suppressed" by Lu Li on weekdays, but today he was taught a lesson by this half-old little doll, he rubbed Wangshu's head with tears and laughter, helpless and funny: "You little doll, do you still know that I am your uncle?" ”

"Of course I know." Wangshu was not surprised, and his words changed: "But if the adult does something wrong, he has to say it." ”

With just one sentence, the master and the maid in the house laughed lowly, and Wei Xiuyuan touched his nose helplessly, not daring to talk again.

Come on, he must have owed the Lu family in his last life, and it was not enough to send a Lu Li to torture him, but he actually sent another Lu Wangshu.

Looking at this situation, Lu Li's nervous heart suddenly relaxed a lot, he unconsciously raised the corners of his lips, gently sat down next to Lu Wangshu, and said, "Wangshu, this is Uncle Wei, don't be too rude." ”

Hearing this, Lu Wangshu turned around reluctantly, "Uncle, I was wrong. ”

Wei Xiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling more comfortable, but just as he was about to make a long speech to show his magnanimity, Lu Wangshu said again: "However, don't do this next time, even if I don't say it, those elders will teach you a lesson." ”

The words were well-founded and so serious, even Lu Li couldn't find a point to teach this kid a lesson.

Wei Xiuyuan had to admit defeat, "Okay, okay, I'll never do this again, okay?" ”

After speaking, he quickly sandwiched a lot of vegetables into Lu Wangshu's bowl, hoping to block the other party's chattering mouth: "Eat first, don't be picky." ”

After that, Wei Xiuyuan was busy with other things, so that Fang Cai's matter could pass.

After dinner, Xiao Man and Xia Wanrou took the children to the bedroom to chat and laugh, while Lu Li and Wei Xiuyuan were in the main hall, waiting for the person who helped them.

Yuncheng and Cannes are very close to each other, but the general situation is very different. Rich in products, rich in people, and close to the sea, Cannes often did business with people from overseas, and trade was very prosperous. Although Yuncheng is also near the sea, there are few ships coming and going in this area, and the rich people in the city have moved to Cannes, so the city is becoming more and more decayed.

After experiencing such a big flood before, this city is already full of holes, it looks prosperous and rich, but in fact, the foundation has long been empty.

Taking advantage of the fact that the person they were waiting for hadn't come yet, Lu Li asked, "What is the origin of this person you are talking about?" Are you sure it's credible? ”

Wei Xiuyuan patted his chest confidently and said, "Don't worry, this person is an old acquaintance of mine, named Lin Le." At that time, he served in Beijing, and then was demoted by the emperor because he was too upright, and he was originally going to be driven to a wild place. We have a good relationship, you can rest assured, you have already left Beijing for Taoyuan County at that time, so you may not know this person. ”

Wei Xiuyuan has always been very accurate in seeing people, since he said that this person is trustworthy and a friend of the old days, it seems that he can indeed rest assured.

As he was talking, a small group outside hurried over and saluted: "Two young masters, there is a person outside who asks to see him, saying that he is a friend of Young Master Wei." ”

Wei Xiuyuan hurriedly got up, "Quickly invite him in." ”

A moment later, a young man in a lake-blue robe appeared, holding a folding fan in his hand, his steps were brisk, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and he looked leisurely and complacent, not at all like he had come to discuss important matters, but as if he had come to drink tea and admire the moon.

"Lin Le." Wei Xiuyuan walked over with a big smile, a little excited: "It's been a long time, you have become more and more chic recently, and you look much more moisturized than when you were in Beijing." ”

The man named Lin Le also laughed, very happy: "I haven't seen you for a long time, I heard that you have become a father, congratulations." ”

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Wei Xiuyuan pulled Lin Le to Lu Li and introduced: "This is the friend I often mentioned before, Lu Li, you should also know his name." This time, he and I were sent by the emperor to Yuncheng to investigate some things, and I hope you will help me a lot. ”

Lin Le is a bold person, and when he heard this, he was naturally full of promises.

Then, he looked at Lu Li and said with a smile: "I have long heard of Lu Guogong's prestige, and today I am really extraordinary when I see it, and I admire it." ”

Lu Li smiled indifferently, "Thank you, you have won the award." ”

can become friends with Wei Xiuyuan, it seems that this person is really as bold as he imagined, and this person is so young, he has experienced all kinds of things like being an official in the court and being degraded, but now he can still be so hearty, and there is no sorrow between his eyebrows, it seems that this person is indeed a little extraordinary.

"By the way, you didn't find out this time, did you?" Wei Xiuyuan suddenly remembered something important, "Lu Li and I came this time to investigate secretly, and no one can find out, when you came, no one followed you, right?" ”

Lin Le patted his chest, "Don't worry, this is all what you have explained a long time ago, I am very careful along the way, and no one knows that I am here." ”

Wei Xiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, since that's the case, I'll trouble you a lot in the future." ”
