"A few years ago, I became friends with Qian Ruming, and I heard him say that he did have a niece, but this niece died before she became an adult, don't you think it's strange?"

Pei Ji stared at Li Huaize quietly like this, trying to see a flaw on his face.

However, Li Huaize asked expressionlessly: "My lord remembered wrong, my wife is obviously alive and well, although I know that my lord has no malicious intentions, but when I hear this kind of words, I can't help but feel uncomfortable, so don't say it anymore in the future." ”

Pei Ji smiled and nodded, "Young man, you are very bold. ”

"My lord said that we are just ordinary people."

"Flat-headed people?"

Pei Ji looked at Li Huaize and said with a smile: "I suddenly saw the shadow of another person in you. ”

Li Huaize raised his eyebrows and did not speak.

"But this person can't be seen now, so let's go."

Pei Ji suddenly sighed and said slowly: "Since you can know the name Qian Wenxi, you must indeed have some affection for Lao Qian, since I have solved the doubts in my heart, I naturally will not embarrass you." ”

"Thank you, sir."

Li Wice arched his hand towards Pei Ji.

Although Pei Ji didn't know them, he still trusted Qian Ruming.

No matter what the purpose of these two people pretending to be Qian Ruming's niece and niece son-in-law, it is not something that Pei Ji can interfere with.

What's more, the name Qian Wenxi, including the road guidance and passage they used along the way, must have come from Qian Ruming's handwriting.

Pei Ji is not a nosy person.

"I heard that you entered Beijing to seek medical treatment, Qian Ruming and I have been friends for many years, since you are his relatives, you are also like my children, if there is any difficulty in the future, just come to Shangshu Mansion to find me."

“……”

In addition to the people around him, this is the first time that Li Huaize has been taken care of by strangers because of his relationship, which is quite a wonderful feeling.

"Thank you, sir." Li Huaize repeated again.

After speaking, Pei Ji couldn't help but laugh again.

This time, it sounded much more sincere.

Pei Ji couldn't help but look at Li Huaice's eyebrows again, for some reason, there was always a sense of familiarity lingering in his heart, lingering.

Pei Ji had his hands behind his back, and he originally planned to leave.

Before turning around, he asked more questions abruptly.

Pei Ji asked, "Young man, what's your name?" ”

Li Huaize thought for a while and said lightly: "Under Li Mingche." ”

“……”

"What? You repeat? ”

“…… Lee Myung-cheol. Li Huaize hesitated.

Pei Ji didn't know what to think, and his eyes widened suddenly.

He looked at Li Huaize in shock, and looked him up and down, left, right, right, and carefully, and even he came directly to Li Huaize and walked around Li Huaize twice.

Li Huaize asked, "My lord, what are you doing?" ”

Pei Ji walked out from behind Li Huaice and stared at him in disbelief, "It's you, it's really you." ”

Li Huaice's heart twitched, he took two steps back suddenly, and looked at Pei Ji vigilantly.

"Kid ......"

Pei Ji opened his mouth, his expression suddenly languished a little, but in the end, he didn't seem to know what to say.

Li Huaize asked coldly, "What do you mean?" ”

"Don't be afraid."

Pei Ji took a step forward and stretched out his hand towards Li Huaice, but because Li Huaice's face was full of vigilance, he finally let it go.

"Forget it, we'll talk about it later."

Pei Ji left such an inexplicable sentence and left in a hurry.

When Yu Mian came out of the house, he happened to see Li Huaize still in the courtyard in a daze.

"What's wrong?"

Yu Mian asked, "Who came just now?" I listened to what seemed to be you talking for a while. ”

Li Huaize turned his head, twisted his eyebrows and said, "It's Pei Ji." ”

"Master Pei? What did he come to do? ”

Yu Mian was also a little curious.

Li Huaice thought for a while, walked up to Yu Mian, lowered his voice and said, "He seems to know my identity." ”

"What identity?"

"More precisely, he probably knew my father."

"Huh?"

How did Pei Ji know Li Huaize's father?

Yu Mian once heard Li Huaize say that their family had lived in Crescent Town for generations, and later because of business, Li Huaice's father moved to the county with their whole family.

He never left it since.

But Crescent Town is also far away from Shengjing, how can they know each other?

Yu Mian held Li Huaice's hand and said in a low voice, "Come into the house and say." ”

After entering the house, Li Huaize told Yu Mian about the conversation with Pei Ji just now.

Yu Mian was even more surprised, "Why does everyone know this Master Pei?" ”

If you want to say that you know Qian Ruming, after all, they are officials in the court at the same time, and they are both good officials with a wide reputation for virtue, if they exchange letters, it is reasonable.

But Li Huaice's father has always been in business, and his relationship with Pei Ji is even more incompatible.

How are they entangled?

Of course, if you want to find out about this matter, I'm afraid you have to ask this Master Pei.

Li Huaize continued: "He should come back to us. ”

"Maybe."

Yu Mian soothed: "It doesn't matter, no matter who he is, the soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, let's take a step and see one step at a time." ”

"Hmm."

**

However, there is still a gap between the reality and their expectations.

After that, the envoys of Dongyu and officials from all over the country arrived, and the post station was already overcrowded, Pei Ji and the stewards and servants of the post station were all busy with their feet not touching the ground, and they couldn't spare time to take care of their affairs at all.

On this day, all the envoys of Dongyu Kingdom have arrived, and I heard that there is also a princess of Dongyu Kingdom who came with the Nine Emperor Princes this time.

But the princess had been staying in her room since she arrived at the inn, and had never stepped out of the door, and even the usual meals were brought in by maids.

It's also mysterious.

Tomorrow, the envoys of Dongyu Kingdom are about to enter Beijing, and Yu Mian and they have to prepare to leave together.

Their luggage is simple and just pack a little.

Yu Mian went to the street to buy some daily necessities and food, and left it to eat on the road tomorrow.

When I went back, Yu Mian walked at the back door of the post station.

It's a little secluded, probably because the inn is busy, and now there is not even a caretaker.

Yu Mian bypassed a narrow path, in order to take a shortcut, she walked directly into the rockery next to her, the ground was full of fallen leaves, and it was soft to step on, which was very interesting.

"Grandma, don't be sad, what's the use of being sad?"

There was a sound of talking in front of him, and Yu Mian stopped in time.

"County Lord, no matter what, I shouldn't let you come and kiss! You are the sister of Prince Tuchuan, and you are the most noble pearl of our palace! Prince Tuchuan is back, and if he learns that the person who was sent to make peace is actually the county lord, he will definitely be furious! ”

Yu Mian wrung his eyebrows, and said in his heart: Isn't Dongyu accompanied by a princess? Why did you become the county lord again?
