The gifts brought by the Duan family, in the eyes of ordinary people, may not even be considered precious.

But in Li Yuanru's view, this "not precious" gift is a priceless treasure.

Three volumes of military books.

Legend has it that with the death of Emperor Wu of Wei, the original manuscript is unknown, and the three volumes in the "New Book of Mengde".

In order to ask for a copy of this book and give Zhu Shize a reference to the art of war, Li Yuanru once sent people to visit the sages outside the world, but what she never dreamed of was that this treasure was actually collected in the Duan family!

"Sister-in-law has been heavy these days, so I only had time to copy these three volumes."

Seeing Li Yuanru carefully holding the three military books, as if he was afraid that they would be transformed, Duan understood that his gift was right.

"In this box, it is a soldier and horse puppet specially carved by your brother, saying that it is used for strategic deduction is excellent, I am a woman, and I can't understand their man's words, so I can only convey the original words to my sister, and I hope that my sister will not be polite."

Duan, who was born in a scholarly family, can be described as well-read.

If a well-read person can't understand the art of war and strategy, then who else can understand it?

"Just had a body, it was easy to be sleepy, Yuanru is an ignorant shrew, and it is impossible to blame her sister-in-law for this kind of scene!"

Most of the ladies from scholarly families are humble in speech.

However, in the eyes of most people from martial arts, this humility contains sourness and hypocrisy that they don't like.

Knowing that Duan's family only spoke like this out of habit, not intentionally squeezing her, Li Yuanru "generously" looked at the baby noodles she sent, and with a witty remark, eliminated the sudden surging atmosphere in the room, and by the way, brought the relationship between the two closer.

Duan said that he only had time to copy three volumes.

That means that there are not only these three volumes in the Duan family's collection.

No, it should be said that it is very likely that in the Duan family's collection, in addition to the "New Book of Mengde", there are other books, which are no less valuable than its existence.

Although, she can also send someone to sneak into Duan's house to steal books, but once this precious thing is lost, it will be difficult to find.

It's not that it can't be obtained safely and completely through normal means, why should she be sick, give up the broad road and not walk, and go to explore the dangerous path that may not be fulfilled?

"I heard that my sister was virtuous, but I suffered from various reasons and didn't get close."

"If you make friends today, you will be more famous if you meet."

The atmosphere in the room changed sharply twice, how could a quick-witted person like Duan not understand that this was caused by her inappropriate words, which caused the displeasure of the people present?

She looked up at Li Yuanru, and saw that the other party's smile was still the same, and she didn't show the slightest anger, so she was a little settled in her heart, and slowly walked to Li Yuanru's front, put her hands on her left arm affectionately, stood on tiptoe slightly, and whispered to her, "I have some news here, I want to share it with my sister, and I want my sister to retreat." ”

"Go down, all of you."

A lady who is already powerless, and she has a new body, not to mention stabbing people, it is a cup full of tea for a long time, I am afraid that I will cry with red eyes and sore hands, what is so terrible about being alone with her?

Li Yuanru glanced at the Duan clan with a smile, raised her head, waved her free right hand to the people in the room, and motioned for them to all retreat, close all the doors and windows of the main hall, and not enter without her summoning.

The news that Duan can "share" with her should come from Depingbo's mansion.

If she guessed correctly, she should have been instructed by her father, Depingbo Li Ming.

After everyone left the front hall and closed the doors and windows, Duan let go of Li Yuanru's arm, took out a letter from his sleeve pocket, handed it to her, and motioned her to read the contents herself.

It was a secret letter, the fire wax that had been used to seal it had been knocked open, and the fact that the letter, though carefully folded, was still hard to hide, had been read.

Li Yuanru's eyebrows twisted unconsciously, and in his heart, he instinctively resisted this letter.

"Sister, look at it, after reading it, you have to burn it as soon as possible."

Duan's voice was a little lower than before, obviously, it was the content of this letter that made her nervous and vigilant, "Half an hour ago, my uncle personally sent it, saying that it was obtained from Wenfeng Pavilion, and the shopkeeper of Wenfeng Pavilion asked him for three thousand taels of silver. ”

Three thousand taels of silver.

The high price of buying a five-grade official is more than enough.

Wenfeng Pavilion is also the number one force in their industry, and it is reasonable that they will not ignore the sky-high asking price of their reputation.

Li Yuanru thought like this, and quickly took out the secret letter that had been opened once, and read it quickly.

"What does my brother think about this?"

Returning the letter to Duan, Li Yuanru's mood couldn't help but feel a little heavy.

If the truth of the matter is really as stated in the letter, then they will have to face a desperate struggle with a certain force next, and it is still unavoidable.

"Lan Qi said, there shouldn't be any fakes in this matter."

"But judging from the current situation and the performance of all parties, the young master of the Wei State Mansion should not know about it yet."

As he spoke, Duan threw the letter that Li Yuanru had returned to her into the brazier.

"Xu Weikang, who once taught Shi Ze the art of war."

"Although I haven't had any contact with him, I often hear Shi Ze mention his former temperament."

Li Yuanru nodded lightly, which can be regarded as a sign of approval for Duan's "message".

She lowered her head and pondered for a moment, and when she raised her head again and looked at Duan, her eyes were already a little more determined.

"According to my meaning, it is more appropriate to leave this matter to His Royal Highness to decide, after all, it is his wife who has not passed the door who has been kidnapped by someone and whose life and death are uncertain."

Li Yuanru said that he wanted to hand over the decision to Ling Jun in this matter, but in his heart, his thoughts were flying.

In just a few breaths, she had already followed the clues and scenarios known so far, and came up with more than a dozen reliable ways to save Liu from danger and keep her from being stigmatized.

"I think it's important to be careful with the ship of ten thousand years."

"After all, the source of this news is not so bright and legitimate, if it is untrue, I am afraid that it will mislead the Third Highness and delay the rescue."

Hearing Li Yuanru refer to himself as "I", Duan unconsciously pursed his lower lip.

She thinks that she is not familiar with Li Yuanru yet, but with Li Lanqi's explanation first, she has a million reluctances in her heart, so she can only choose to compromise, follow Li Yuanru's example, and call herself "I", "Your brother also thinks that he and Shi Ze will go around with Xu Weikang first, probe the details of the other party, and wait to figure out whether he is involved in the planning of this matter, and then it is not too late to make a decision." ”
