Chapter 173: Coming Here to Act?
Situ has some experience with poison, and Guan Li was already aware of this when he first saw her.
So if she says that, there is still some credibility.
But when he didn't see that Yang Zhu specifically, it was too early to say anything.
Shangguan Li said "um", did not answer this question, but asked lightly.
"Where's Uncle Qian?"
Situ replied quickly.
"I went to the restaurant where the accident happened, and I guess it will take a while to come back."
This man is also clever.
Shangguan Li bent his arm and looked out of the round window of the main house, and could see a small road connecting to the front yard, which was now being cleaned by some people.
It doesn't matter if that Yang Zhu is a tool used to target Baifu or something else...... What happens in the restaurant is crucial.
"Sister Fairy, what should we do now? I heard that the surname Yang seems to be a very important person. ”
There was a hint of excitement in Situ's tone.
Although it is a bit unpleasant to think so, if something happens here, can't they postpone going to Anning Town?
And in the past month, in addition to smashing a bandit's den outside the city, she is so idle that she is about to grow mushrooms, and when she sees that there is something to do at this moment, the whole person exudes a "can't hold back" eagerness to try.
Shangguan Li retracted his gaze that fell on the path outside, turned his head and glanced at her, his eyes were clear, and he saw through the little Jiujiu in Xitu's heart at once.
"Wait."
After speaking, without waiting for Situ's reaction, she took out a set of tea sets from the desk and ordered a pot of tea at a dizzying speed.
"What are you doing in a daze, find a plate."
"Ahh
Situ came back to her senses from her miraculous technique, and hurriedly found a set of sandalwood trays from the shelf, which looked the most expensive.
"Do you want to go out?"
Shangguan Li didn't nod or shake his head, and smiled.
"It's a guest, of course I'll go out and have a look."
"Then I'...... too"
"Little Tu'er, you have something else to do."
Shangguan Li's free hand stopped her.
"You go directly to Uncle Qian and ask him to take you to the City Lord's Mansion with you, just say that I asked you to pick up things. When you get it, hide it. ”
Situ was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but ask.
"Hide? Where to hide? ”
Shangguan Li rolled her eyes.
"Xiao Tu'er, although martial arts are also very important, if you don't know how to use your brains again, be careful of being deceived by a man who doesn't know which one pops up in the future."
After the joke, without waiting for Citu to refute, she said with a straight face.
"That's why you were asked to be with Uncle Qian, don't you know, can he still not know where this Linyang City is the safest for Baifu?"
Xitu understood now, and she also knew that most of the things Shangguan Li wanted were maps, so she also understood that this matter was quite important, so she nodded.
"Got it."
After a while, Xitu walked out of the hidden back door of the White Mansion, while Shangguan Li came to the front yard with tea.
Xuanyuan Ye and that Zhang Quan had already moved to the reception hall, and when she walked in, Xuanyuan Ye was looking at the person lying on the stretcher on the ground and raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he was a little distressed.
However, as soon as Shangguan Li's footsteps stepped in, he raised his head consciously, saw her, and showed a happy smile.
"It's good to let the subordinates do this kind of rough work, how can you let the lady do it herself?"
As he spoke, he walked up to her in two steps and took the hot tea from her.
"Madame, sit."
Shangguan Li was a little uncomfortable and sat down with Xuanyuan Ye's support, this person was really tired and crooked.
"Cough, Master Bai and Mrs., they are really in love."
She looked up, and on the right side of the room sat the chief bookkeeper named Zhang Quan, and beside him stood a tall and tall official.
Shangguan Li smiled slightly, did not answer this sentence, and said generously.
"I made you a cup of tea, several officials have discussed it for so long, if you don't dislike it, please use it."
Immediately, the maid with the organic spirit came up to see the tea, Xuanyuan Ye shook Shangguan Li's wrist and said softly.
"Madame, this tea wasn't for me?"
Shangguan Li turned slightly sideways, blocking Zhang Quan's gaze, and she showed a smiling expression.
"Bai Ye's has been prepared, waiting for you to finish discussing the business...... Oh, I forgot that Bai Ye still has business, so I'll ...... first."
"Don't go."
Xuanyuan Ye reached out and pressed her body that wanted to stand up, his hands were long and his feet were long, and such a light press almost encircled her whole person into the chair.
"My business is Madame's business, there is nothing unpleasant, and this is not a big deal, do you say, Master Zhang?"
Although he asked Zhang Quan, his eyes were still firmly fixed on Shangguan Li's eyes, as if he couldn't see enough and was reluctant to look away.
The corners of Shangguan Li's mouth twitched slightly, how did she feel that this person was taking advantage of her?
"Eh, what Bai Ye said is, I don't know how Bai Ye thinks about it?"
Zhang Quan still had that smiling face, but Shangguan Li took advantage of Xuanyuan Ye's shoulder to see the irritability and dissatisfaction on the face of the official next to Zhang Quan for a moment.
However, Zhang Quan gently waved his sleeves when he took the teacup from the maid's hand and blocked the officer.
Xuanyuan Ye straightened up and sat next to Shangguan Li, and said with a smile.
"Don't worry, my wife can easily make me tea, can you let it cool, and you two can taste it too?"
Zhang Quan's hand paused.
He had already put down his teacup, apparently not going to drink it.
Shangguan Li leaned back in his chair quietly, not missing the hesitation that flashed in Zhang Quan's eyes, but he quickly calmed down.
The smile on his face is still so honest and kind.
"Madame's tea, then I want to taste it."
As he spoke, he brought the teacup to his lips, and when he was about to drink it, the official beside him snorted coldly as if he finally couldn't hold it anymore.
"We came here to talk about business, and Bai Ye shirked and drank tea, do you want to hinder official business?"
"Tie Xin!"
Zhang Quan stopped him with a loud voice, the smile on his face faded a little, and he said in a deep voice.
"Don't be rude to Bai Ye."
Tie Xin snorted, his face full of unconvinced, but he still listened to this sentence and stopped talking.
Shangguan Li watched Zhang Quan put back the cup of tea that had reached his mouth, and got up and apologized.
"This kid has just been recruited from the countryside, and he doesn't know the rules, please don't bother with him."
The faint smile on Xuanyuan Ye's face disappeared cleanly, and there was a little frost under his eyes, and he said coldly.
"Even in the City Lord's Mansion, I haven't been dumped like this. Or is it that Master Zhang is actually dissatisfied with our Bai Mansion, so he planned this show for me? ”
