Chapter 18 Small Benefits
"Hmm." Lu Yi responded, didn't follow up, watched King Qin go in, turned around and went back to his residence.
King Qin went straight inside and went to greet the Empress Dowager Jin.
After dinner, King Qin went back, Empress Dowager Jin picked up the teacup, Han Shanggong lifted the curtain and came in, bent his knees and smiled: "General Lu has been waiting for a while." ”
"Call in." Empress Dowager Jin took a sip of tea and ordered.
Lu Yi came in with her hands down, kowtowed, and the Empress Dowager Jin put down her cup, her voice was soft and easy-going, "Brother Yun is naughty again?" ”
"Not really." Lu Yi smiled: "It's a trivial matter, and the minister thinks it's better to say hello to you." ”
"Hmm." Empress Dowager Jin smiled and nodded.
Lu Yi started from the trip to Jiangning Mansion, "On the day when the minister traveled to Jiangning Mansion with the prince, he met Li Xuezhang, the cousin of Li Xuezhang, the transfer envoy of Jiangnan East Road, and Li Xueming, the new county magistrate of Hengshan County on Liangzhejiang Road, as well as his eldest son Li Wenshan, second son Li Wenlan and young daughter Li Xia...... Lu Yi concisely and clearly explained the incident of meeting the Li family brothers and sisters in Jiangning Mansion.
Empress Dowager Jin listened very attentively, Lu Yi looked up, lowered her head and continued: "This morning, the prince suddenly said that he wanted to eat Longjing shrimp from Hengshan County's Pinglan Courtyard, and when he arrived in Hengshan County, the prince remembered Li Wenshan, asked him to call him to Pinglan Courtyard to talk, and asked him to go to Kaowansong Academy. ”
"Oh?" Hearing Lu Yi say that King Qin asked Li Wenshan to go to Kaowansong Academy, Empress Dowager Jin showed a trace of solemnity in her expression.
"Just returned to Beizhuang, the prince instructed the minister not to talk to the mountain chief about this, and said that he would take the opportunity to take a look at Li Wenshan." This is the end of Lu Yi's report.
Empress Dowager Jin frowned slightly, "According to what you say, this Li Wenshan seems to be a simple and honest person?" ”
However, when did Brother Yun start to like honest and honest temperament?
"The prince said, maybe Li Wenshan is not as simple as he seems." Lu Yi lowered his eyebrows.
Empress Dowager Jin's slightly frowned brows relaxed, revealing a slight smile, "I won't let you talk to the mountain chief about entering the school, he wants to see if this Li Wenshan will use any means?" It's a child's temper. You're doing a great job! I know. After a hard day, go back and have a good rest. ”
"Yes!" Lu Yi bowed and retired.
Lu Yi walked for a long time, and the Empress Dowager Jin was still looking at the distance without focus.
"Lao Huang."
"The old slave is here." In front of Baibaoge, the silver-gray gauze curtain moved, and an old chamberlain with a thin figure and a humble face with almost no sense of existence took two steps forward.
"You hear it all, you tell it." Empress Dowager Jin's words were a bit clueless, and Lao Huang smiled, "The prince's mind is getting harder and harder to guess." ”
"Brother Yun is thirteen years old in a blink of an eye, I used to feel that the days were long, looking at Brother Yun day by day, I never saw him grow up, and now I feel that this day is fast is a trance." Empress Dowager Jin's emotion was full of pain.
"When the prince grows up, everything will be fine." Lao Huang's low persuasion revealed an indescribable taste.
"It's said that you've grown up, where have you really grown up, you're only thirteen, you can keep an eye on this matter, find out Li Xueming's family, and Yongning Bofu, all of them will be carefully investigated." Empress Dowager Jin took the pain and ordered.

Wansong Academy is one of the best academies in the world, it must not be easy to get in, Li Wenshan concentrates on preparation, and there is no way to go to the front every day to stare at Wutong and the two masters. Li Wenshan and Li Xia discussed for a long time, the matter is divided into priorities, the matter of being admitted to Wansong Academy is more important and urgent, and the matter of Wutong and the two masters is not in a hurry for the time being, so they can be put aside for a while.
Li Wenshan concentrated on reading and preparing for the exam, and Li Xia sat under the porch in a daze.
She and Fifth Brother don't have anyone in their hands who can be used! The fifth brother doesn't even have a little girl, but she has a girl, Xiao Jiu'er, but Xiao Jiu'er ...... Li Xia turned his head to look at Xiao Jiu'er, who was yawning with needle and thread, this Xiao Jiu'er said that she was her girl, but she was at the behest of the old lady......
"Jiu Niangzi, the sun is so high, you have breakfast early, you should be hungry, right? I asked Mama Don to cook a bowl of eggnog for you? Seeing Li Xia looking at her, Xiao Jiu'er hurriedly put down the needle and thread, and salivated and suggested.
"I'm not hungry!" The corners of Li Xia's mouth tugged down, and he refused.
Xiao Jiu'er was stunned by this nail, from Taiyuan Mansion to Hengshan County, she has been waiting on the old lady's boat, this way, Jiu Niangzi seems to have changed a person, in the past, she and Jiu Niangzi discussed eating and playing, how good! The current nine ladies don't eat, they don't play, they don't play, they either write and read books or sit in a daze all day long, which is really boring.
"Nine Niangzi, what's wrong with you? Eat or eat, play or play, Jiuniangzi is not like Jiuniangzi at all! Xiao Jiu'er has always said whatever she thinks in her heart.
Hearing this sentence in Li Xia's ears, it was like a bright light piercing through the clouds. She had forgotten that she was only five years old! It's the time when you don't know anything and only know how to be greedy, and you can run around, listen to questions, and move around! The front yamen can go by itself, not only can you go, but you can also go casually! It's much more useful to go by yourself than to go to the fifth brother!
"Let's go to the front to find Daddy and see how Daddy does the county order! Come on! Li Xia jumped up, pulled Xiao Jiu'er and ran forward.
Since entering Hengshan County, the two masters get up before dawn every day, and they are busy until the lights are still on in the middle of the night.
This diligence, carefulness, and absolute professionalism moved Li Xianling, but he only felt that his time and place were favorable, this person was really rare, and it seemed that he was really going to run from time to time.
When Li Xia slipped into the front office with Xiao Jiu'er, he was just in time for Master Bu to hold a thick criminal case document, staring at County Lieutenant Wu who was asking a cold sweat.
Li Xia looked at Daddy, and what he saw from his serious face was satisfaction. Li Xia's heart moved slightly, yes, these two masters have to stand firm first, and if they want to gain a firm foothold, they must first get the trust of their father, and they must first find out the details of Hengshan County and the county government, that is to say, they must do their work well first!
Thinking about this, Li Xia suddenly relaxed, he was too anxious and confused before, it takes time for the uncle to find out the details of the two masters, and it takes time for the two masters to prepare for bad things!
She and the fifth brother don't need to be too anxious, they can be calm.
Uncle action was much faster than Li Xia expected, and within a few days, Zhao Da went to Hengshan County, sent a few baskets of loquats, figs and other seasonal fresh fruits, came out and quietly looked for Li Wenshan, and whispered the details of the two masters.
