Chapter 16 Zhuang Zhong talks about the night
There was heavy snow blocking the road, and Depingbo Li Ming and his son failed to enter Yanjing City before the city gate was closed.
And Li Ming didn't want to use his token to let too many people know that he was out of the city in the snow, so he and Li Lanqi turned the horse's head, braved the wind and snow, and went back to Zhuangzi outside the city to spend the night.
And this Zhuangzi is the one who waited for Li Lanqi to die before.
Seeing that Depingbo Li Ming was coming, Li Ping, the housekeeper who was in charge of guarding Zhuangzi, hurriedly lifted the hem of his clothes and trotted out to meet him.
The last time I saw their grandfather was several years ago.
Although I don't miss it in ordinary times, I still can't help but be excited when I really see it.
"The old man came in the snow, and the little one did not come far away, and he hoped to forgive his sins."
As Li Ping spoke, he really knelt down in the snow and kowtowed respectfully to Deping Bo Li Ming.
"Get up."
"I also took Lan Qi and went out to do errands, but when I saw that it was getting late, I was too lazy to go back, so I came to settle down on your side."
"Tell us to prepare two warmer rooms and some simple food!"
Depingbo Li Ming nodded lightly, and held a hand with his left hand, which could be regarded as a bow to Li Ping.
He didn't have much affection for this person who was his personal guard, and he didn't trust him very much.
It's just that he has worked diligently, survived for more than 20 years without success until he was old, and he was no longer able to help him be born and die, so he was given such an "idle job", which can be regarded as letting him retire here.
"Do as the master commands."
Li Pingcheng agreed in fear, got up from the ground, turned sideways, and made a gesture of invitation to Depingbo Li Ming.
Zhuangzi said that it is not big.
But there is too much Li Ping can't calculate, and the lives of Deping Bofu.
There is a son-in-law.
There are concubines.
Of course, more people still made mistakes and waited for the next person to make up for it with death.
Xu Shi has too many people's grievances, and this house that is good in feng shui always looks a little gloomy, especially after nightfall.
De Pingbo, Li Ming and Li Lanqi ate at the same table.
After eating a little light dinner, he went back to the room that Li Ping had prepared for him, picked up a book casually, opened it, and put it on his face.
He had never met an opponent like Liu Qingxin.
An opponent like her is like a miasma overflowing with miasma, mysterious and dangerous.
If it was only for the sake of the foundation of Deping Bofu, he should have stopped at the right time and stopped making any inquiries to her, just in case he would displease her.
But he was not reconciled.
To be precise, it is impossible to endure the unknown.
It's like being scratched by a cat standing on the chest, and it's itching so much.
Although, he knew that in the face of this cat, he should wait obediently, let it have a good time, tired of playing, bored, and will leave, provoked, and will only hurt seriously, but he still couldn't help but raise his hand, wanting to try if he could slap it away without letting himself suffer the slightest loss.
Knock Knock Knock –
Outside the door, there was a sudden knocking sound.
De Pingbo Li Ming's brows were shrouded in book paper, and he bent unconsciously.
He took a deep breath and whispered a reply.
"Who?"
"It's me, father."
Outside the door, Li Lanqi's answer sounded, with a little helplessness and panic.
"Come in."
"The door is not bolted."
De Pingbo Li Ming didn't take the book that covered his face.
Listening to Li Lanqi's voice, he knew that what he brought was not good news.
Creak.
Creak.
After the two soft sounds, Li Lanqi's footsteps stopped five steps away from Depingbo Li Ming.
After the sound of the clothes rustling, there was a "bang" of the head.
"Lan Qi did not do well, and failed to persuade his sister to return home as soon as possible and be filial to his father."
The Zhuangzi where Depingbo and Li Ming's father and son live is not too far away from Li Yuanru's dowry Zhuangzi, Duyun Village.
In order to show that he was able to do things, Li Lanqi took advantage of the fact that after dinner, the momentum of the wind and snow had decreased slightly, and he quickly went to Duyun Village to send a message to Li Yuanru.
I never thought that after listening to his words, Li Yuanru was not polite at all, and gave him a "south wall", asking him to go back as soon as possible, and tell Deping Bo Li Ming that if you want to ask, don't mention it again, that person has a close relationship with the master of Chengluan Palace, and she can't be provoked in order to fulfill her filial piety.
Hearing Li Yuanru say this, how could Li Lanqi not understand why his father, Li Ming, Depingbo, suddenly thought that he would marry his sister, who had never returned home once, to return home to save his family.
His purpose is the same as his own.
Find out the true identity and background of Liu Qingxin.
It's just that I don't know if his uncle can bring him good news......
After all, in addition to Chengluan Palace, there are several other killer forces.
Even if that quasi-princess, no matter how powerful her background is, it is impossible to deter all the killer groups, and she will not make money by putting the bright gold, right?
Especially, to the Celestial Gate, which is known for its ruthlessness!
"Anyway, how did she get back to you?"
De Pingbo Li Ming did not take away the book that covered his face.
He already knew the result.
He didn't want to see that daughter, who made him feel creepy, he just wanted to know the result, so as to decide his next step.
"My sister Xu has just come back from the dead, and she is a little confused, so she only said to Lan Qi inexplicably, telling her father not to inquire about that person's identity again, that person has a close relationship with the palace master of Chengluan, and she can find out."
Li Lan didn't dare, and directly conveyed Li Yuanru's tone and words to Depingbo Li Ming.
Not to mention, Depingbo Li Ming, will he kill Li Yuanru because of this incident, just because he may be implicated, he doesn't want to take risks.
After all, he had just walked through the Ghost Gate Pass, and he almost touched the nose of the king of Hades, and it was impossible to return to the yang world.
In this world, there is no one who is not afraid of death.
Especially when you know that you still have hope and a good life.
"I see."
Depingbo Li Ming didn't need to think about it to guess what kind of tone and what kind of words Li Yuanru used to drive Li Lanqi back unceremoniously.
He doesn't care about that either.
That quasi-princess, at least, has the Chengluan Palace as a backing.
If you want to kill him, you can't choose to take the Luan Palace to do it for you.
This daughter of hers is still a person who understands Entubao.
Although, to put it a little more politely.
"What your sister said to you today, but no one else hears it?"
Depingbo Dawn was silent for a moment.
Stretched out his hand and took away the book that covered his face, sat up straight, and saw Li Lanqi, who was kneeling in front of him and didn't dare to raise his head.
"Back to my father's words, there is no one else."
"Her husband, Zhu Shize, the seventh young master of the Chengguo Mansion, was recalled to Yanjing by the Duke of Chengguo after noon, and in the Zhuangzi, only she and two subordinates were left."
"Seeing that I went, the two subordinates were kicked out of the house by her and went to light the wind lantern at the door of Zhuangzi."
Li Lanqi thought about it carefully, and only then did he seriously answer Depingbo Li Ming's inquiry.
He has always felt that this sister of his has been a little eerie since she got lost and found it back.
Unexpectedly, she would dare to speak so unceremoniously to their father.
However, judging from what she just said, she should have a close relationship with Chengluan Palace.
This is an opportunity.
It seems that in the future, he should still walk around with her more and be a good brother.
I don't know, in the future, there will be a place where she can be used.
For example, since their father, De Pingbo Li Ming's subordinates, save their lives.
"Your sister's, this violent temper is really like when you were a father when she was young."
"It's not good."
"You brother, it's okay, you should go to her house more and persuade her."
"If you don't change your temper, you will have to suffer sooner or later."
Deping Bo Li Ming said as he picked up the tea bowl from the side and took a sip of herbal tea.
He seemed to be teaching Li Lanqi a lesson, and it was like, giving him another reminder or opportunity.
In other words, if Li Lanqi can win over Li Yuanru's sister, he, as a father, is still willing to give him some benefits, if he can't maintain a good relationship with him and let him be used by Depingbofu, then the value of his son will be greatly reduced in the eyes of him, a father.
"My son got it."
"Before, he was busy with fame and neglected to teach his sister a lesson, which was a dereliction of duty for Lan Qi as a brother."
"In the future, Lan Qi will often go to the Chengguo Mansion to make up for his mistakes."
De Pingbo's words have been said very clearly, how could Li Lanqi, a smart person, not understand?
Although cold sweat broke out on his back, he was still respectful, bowed to Depingbo Li Ming, and then swore to him that he would live up to his expectations.
In Depingbo's Mansion, the person who can't be the most is the one who disappoints Depingbo Li Ming.
Otherwise, there is only one end.
"When you return to Yanjing, you can find a time to go to the Chengguo Mansion and bring more people."
"Be polite, be good-natured, and ask Cheng Guogong, before, the person who wanted to kill my concubine was punished as he deserved."
"I've been waiting for him to give me a fair deal."
"If he can't give it, then don't blame me and ask for it yourself."
Casually closing the open pages and throwing them on the table, Depingbo Li Ming slowly got up, walked to Li Lanqi's side, stretched out his hand, and patted him lightly on the shoulder.
"This is the most suitable thing for you as a brother."
"He is the younger sister of your mother, you are acting excessively, and no one can criticize you as a junior."
"By the way, when you go, remember to bring some gadgets for your two little nephews."
"They are children after all, even if they are educated by Yuanru's girl, it is not a problem."
"Boy, you still have to have a man to teach you a lesson in order to grow manhood."
"And their father, you know...... Alas! That martial idiot and madman, don't say it's disciplining those two children, even if it's with your sister, it's not close......"
"I really don't know what kind of madness your sister has committed, a good Miss Deping Bofu, how many people have stepped on the threshold to ask for a marriage, how can they look down on him!" ...
