Chapter 309: The Man Behind the Scenes

When the two of them came out of the old marquis's courtyard, they saw that Zhou Liye was still standing outside the courtyard, and when they saw Li Yun and Li Yue coming out, Zhou Liye hesitated and said, "Ah Yun." ”

Li Yun didn't pay attention to Zhou Liye, and pulled Li Yue to walk quickly towards his small courtyard.

This winter night was particularly cold, and as soon as the two of them came out of the old marquis's yard, they felt a cold wind coming, and Li Yue's body couldn't help but tremble.

Li Yun finally slowed down, let go of Li Yue's hand, and then directly hugged Li Yue's shoulder, held Li Yue in his arms, tightened the cloak on Li Yue's body, and then continued to walk towards the small courtyard.

Seeing that it was the direction of going back, Li Yue asked, "Let's just go and take a look." ”

Li Yunying said, "No need, we didn't have much effect in the past, I'm afraid it's almost burned at this time, don't worry, there is Li Zhong watching over there, if there is any problem, he will come back and tell us." ”

Li Yue nodded, no longer insisting on going over, on such a cold day, she didn't want to hang outside.

After the two went back, Wu's mother prepared hot ginger tea for the two, and after drinking it, Li Yue felt that her body was warmer, and the two of them went back to the bedroom to rest, and other things will wait for tomorrow.

Early the next morning, Zhou Yuanhou's Mansion began to get busy, the house was full of white silk, the Buddhist hall in the backyard of Zhou Yuanhou's Mansion was not very watery, and the news that the Hou Ye and Mrs. Hou of the Buddha were buried in the sea of fire with the Buddha Hall spread, and the main courtyard also sent a white filial piety scarf to Li Yun and Li Yue.

Although Li Yun and Li Yue did not wear linen and filial piety, they still changed into plain clothes and took off their headdresses.

The two of them are still staying in the courtyard, and they don't plan to go out, this Hou Mansion is holding a funeral, it is estimated that many people will come to mourn, people will come and go, with the experience of Li Yue's accident under his nose last time, before he found out the person behind the scenes, Li Yun did not want Li Yue to appear in a crowded place again.

Of course, with Li Yun and Li Yue's current identity, no one dares to say anything.

After breakfast, the two sat in the courtyard drinking jujube tea, and the snow began to fall outside, and Li Yue nested on the couch, and didn't want to go out.

Li Zhong, who has not been back since yesterday, finally came back today, and reported to Li Yun with a tired face, "Childe, the fire in the Buddhist hall behind is too big, the fire completely burned the Buddhist hall to ashes, and the corpse was rescued when the fire was small. ”

Li Yundao, "Find a way to find that maid, maybe she will be our only clue." ”

Li Zhong responded, and Li Yun continued to ask, "Who did Zhou Jiangong meet with in Tianxiang Tower?" ”

Li Zhong hesitated for a moment before he said, "The subordinate was about to report this, and the person found out, yes, it is the eldest prince and concubine." ”

Li Yue heard Li Zhong's answer, pursed her mouth, and said, "Sure enough, it's your rotten peach blossom." ”

Li Yun sighed, "Sure enough, as Thirteen said, it is already a matter of right now." ”

Li Yue's little feet coiled on the couch kicked Li Yun with a dissatisfied kick, "What's the matter, I'm distressed?" ”

Li Yun pursed his lips and replied, "What nonsense, I just didn't expect how she would become so vicious." ”

Li Yue pursed her lips, "What's unexpected, in the inner house of this wealthy compound, there are many dirty things, especially those who have married a bunch of little wives, those women, there is no pursuit, the only pursuit and fun is to compete for favor, if this is not vicious enough, I am afraid that it will only be killed." ”

Li Yun looked at Li Yue, "You really know a lot?" ”

Li Yue's eyes flashed slightly, and she smiled, "I've read a lot of books, and it's written like this." ”

Li Yun pursed his lips and replied, "Yes, it doesn't seem like there are many books like this." Have you studied it specifically? ”

Li Yue rolled her eyes, "What am I doing with this?" What kind of palace fighting house fight, look at the people who eat melons, it's okay, if you want me to compete for favor, I can't. ”

Then he seemed to think of something, glared at Li Yun and said, "I warn you, if you dare to get a bunch of concubines out, I will kill those concubines first, and then wipe you with a knife." While speaking, Li Yue also made a clicking motion with her hand at Li Yun's place very vividly.

Li Zhong watched from the sidelines, and secretly sighed in his heart, their wife is really different, and when it comes to dealing with concubines, they are all so simple and rude, but according to his estimate, with their son-in-law's cold temperament, I am afraid that he will not marry any concubines.

Sure enough, as soon as Li Yue's words were finished, Li Yun opened his mouth and said, "What are you talking nonsense, why did it come to me?" ”

Li Yun then asked Li Zhong, "Have you found any evidence?" ”

Li Zhongying said, "I found a piece of Jinpa in Tianxianglou, which has the smell of Hehuan San, which should have been used for medicinal purposes at that time, and the Jinpa came out of the embroidery workshop in the palace, which should be the eldest prince and princess." ”

Li Yundao, "This is not enough to prove that it was the eldest prince and concubine, but Jinpa can send someone to the eldest prince's mansion, it is best to send it to the eldest prince, and vaguely mention this matter to the eldest prince, I think the eldest prince should help us deal with this matter." ”

Li Zhong said with some worry, "Will this startle the snake, we underestimated the eldest prince before, and we were too careless, so we let the eldest prince take advantage of it and burned Mrs. Hou to death." ”

Li Yun shook his head, "It's okay, this matter is completely different from the matter of Mrs. Hou, the eldest prince will only think that we have given him face, and if we don't make a fuss about this matter, it will make him mistakenly think that we are still a little biased towards him." ”

Li Zhong nodded in response, "Okay, my subordinates will do it." ”

Li Yundao, "Also, there are a lot of people in Houfu these days, send more people to pay attention, let's go." ”

After Li Zhong left, Li Yue snorted dissatisfiedly, originally sitting closer to Li Yun, but now she deliberately sat farther away, pouting and speaking, "Hmph, then Zhou Yanxue has such a vicious mind to deal with me, you just warn her like this?" Sure enough, it's a little green plum, even if it's so vicious, the treatment is different. ”

There were only two people left in the house, Li Yun reached out and scooped Li Yue into his arms, pinched Li Yue's nose, pursed his lips and said, "Little vinegar jar, just knowing how to be jealous, I don't know how to use my brain, do you think this big prince is so scheming to win us over, will he make a trick to harm you like this?" ”

Li Yue shook her head, "Of course not, he is not stupid." ”

Li Yun showed a hint of a smile, "Doesn't this mean that those things are all small actions made by the eldest prince and princess?" This eldest prince is trying his best to curry favor with us and win us over, but this eldest prince and princess are out of selfishness and scheming to deal with you, do you say that if you let the eldest prince know, will you easily let go of the eldest princess? ”

Li Yue slapped her face, and the mouth that was still pouting just now instantly showed a smile, "Yes, we don't need to make a move." The eldest prince and concubine were jealous of her ex-fiancé's wife, and she did not hesitate to destroy the eldest prince's plan, but also used a trick to deal with it, ha, this eldest prince knows, I don't know what kind of expression it is? It's a good idea. ”

Li Yun looked at Li Yue's expression that turned cloudy in an instant, and the smile on his face was even better, "Changing your face is faster than turning a book." ”

Li Yue smiled and continued to get down to business, "Since the eldest prince has chosen to kill people, he definitely doesn't plan to make a move on Jinbao's affairs this week, it seems that this eldest prince doesn't want to fight against this Wu family, we seem to have underestimated this eldest prince, we have been in a trap for so long, and we didn't put him in it at all, but compensated the people of the Zhou family." ”

Li Yun sighed, "That's fine, lest I have to take revenge on my grandfather and mother, and I don't want my grandfather's family to be wiped out like this because of what happened back then, since this matter has nothing to do with the rest of the Zhou family, and the culprit has been burned to death, I won't care about them." ”

Li Yue reminded, "Since you don't want your grandfather's branch to be wiped out, you still have to clean it up, this week, the family colluded with outsiders to persecute their own family, but it was not only the dead Mrs. Hou." ”

Li Yun nodded and responded, "This kind of person really shouldn't be kept, if you have an accident in the Hou Mansion, since we can't move the eldest prince and concubine for the time being, let's move him first, I'll let Li Zhong arrange it, and when the loss of the Hou Mansion is over, let's send my uncle to the Yamen, and take Zhou Jinbao's kid out by the way." ”

Li Yue looked at Li Yun suspiciously, "Can Zhou Jinbao take it out casually?" Can this Wu family let him go easily? ”

Li Yunying said, "When the street insulted the Chang'an county lord who was personally sealed by the king, scolded the ugly wife of the Chang'an county lord, and instigated his subordinates to plan to arrest the Chang'an county lord, if it weren't for Zhou Jinbao's cousin-in-law's heart, the Chang'an county lord was afraid that he would be arrested by the little master of the Wu family, there were more than one or two things I saw at the time, and the witnesses didn't need to be specially searched, and when you went to the yamen that day, you put on the clothes of that day, and then directly notified the people on the street that day to follow and watch." ”

Li Yue looked at Li Yun who was talking eloquently, "You have already thought about your feelings?" You've guessed that the eldest prince wouldn't have made a move at all, right? ”

Li Yundao, "I just made two considerations, after all, the Wu family is not only one Shangshu, there are also Queen Wu behind the Wu family, the third prince, the fourth prince, with the current power of the eldest prince, it is not enough to confront the Wu family, I guess that this eldest prince will not make a move easily, but I have also thought that if Mrs. Hou has the handle of the eldest prince in her hand, he will be forced to make a move, and he will also fight against the Wu family, but I never expected that this eldest prince would kill people." ”

Listening to Li Yun's words, Li Yue was also thinking in her heart, if the eldest prince can compete with the Wu family and the third prince, then it will definitely be Yan Jiu who will benefit, so when Li Yun finished speaking, Li Yue said, "Then what if we pretend to show friendship with the eldest prince, and then pull him into the water and fight against the Wu family?" Anyway, these three princes and the Wu family are already offended, even if we have no intention of getting caught up in this right and wrong, I am afraid that the forces of the three princes and the party will not let us go easily, after all, when we participated in the war between Yanxi and Yanbei, we blocked the way of these three princes. ”
