Chapter 19 The dug tunnel has been served, and I want to eat fish

With a "snap", Li Qingheng kicked open the door of the study, and the door slammed against the wooden wall behind it, trembling and shaking.

The study room was empty, and the official documents on the table were piled up on a table, and no one cleaned it up.

Li Qingheng sneered inwardly, heh, she shouldn't have had hope for Li Cong, thinking that he could handle the mountains of cases.

If the study is not there, then it is in the dormitory.

Li Qingheng turned around in a dashing manner, and strode towards Li Cong's bedroom again.

Because of the hurried and hurried walk, the cherry blossom petals that fell on the ground were also blown up by the skirt, rolled twice, and fell asleep in another place.

"Li Cong! You give me a good explanation! ”

Li Qingheng waved his fist and went straight to Li Cong's bed.

Li Cong pulled the quilt over and put it on his head, and a muffled cough came from the quilt.

Li Yan was sitting on the edge of the bed, and when she saw Li Qingheng's posture of cutting people, she hurriedly stood up and stopped her.

"Dad just went to sleep, so don't make any noise."

Li Cong poked his head out: "Yes, Yan'er is right." ”

Li Yan: Can you pretend to be asleep in ......?

"Get out of the way! I'm going to settle accounts with the old immortal! Li Qingheng got under Li Yan's arm and threw himself on the side of the bed to tear Li Cong's quilt.

"Who told you to listen to the corner? Did you do it on purpose? What do you hear? ”

As soon as it came up, it was a series of three questions.

Li Cong: "......" can't say that he heard everything.

He rolled over, turned his back to Li Qingheng, and tried to get through by swinging badly.

"Speak!"

"I've been asleep here, I haven't heard anything, I don't believe you're asking Yan'er, what are you talking about this madness? I'm sleepy, you get out. ”

Li Qingheng looked at Li Yan.

Li Yan glanced at the problem.

He said he slept here, and the ghosts didn't believe it.

"Dead old man dare not do it! Why are you preventing me from marrying Shen Mo? And make up a lie like that? Which of your words is true? ”

Li Qingheng stretched out his hand and forcibly pulled Li Cong's face over.

Li Cong's eyelids lifted, and when he met the pair of questioning eyes, he felt that he couldn't resist it, so he immediately closed his eyes.

Out of sight is pure, out of sight is pure......

Li Yan persuaded on the side: "Good sister, you and Shen Mo are cousins, don't think about it, okay?" ”

"Kiss you big-headed ghost! He lied to you! ”

“……”

Li Yan was stunned.

Then he looked at Li Cong.

Li Cong really couldn't resist, so he could only open his eyes, sit up from the bed, cry with a sad face, and explain seriously: "Alas, I'm all for your good, do you know Shen Mo'......"

"I don't need to know, anyway, don't stop me and Shen Mo in the future."

"You're going to be angry with me, cough, cough, cough......"

"The best."

"You damn girl." Although he was scolding, he could still hear a little doting.

"Forget it, you pack up now and come with me to the Temple of Mercy and Grace." Li Cong's legs were hanging on the edge of the bed, and his shoes were stepping on the soles of his feet.

"What are you doing at the Temple of Mercy and Grace?"

"Asking for marriage for you!" After that, he sighed, "Anyway, my old bone is not far from death without your curse, and I will ask you for a good marriage before I die." ”

"It's better to ask God than to yourself, that thing doesn't work."

"If it doesn't work, you can give it to me!"

"Just go."

Li Qingheng lifted the hem of her skirt and went out with her face up.

Inside the house, Li Cong began to cough sharply again.

This time he coughed badly, one after another, as if he was going to cough out his lungs.

"Ahem!" Li Cong hurriedly covered his mouth with a handkerchief, and finally coughed up the mouthful of old phlegm.

It's just a white silk handkerchief, but it's stained with a lot of red.

When Li Yan saw it, he was anxious, and hurriedly helped Li Cong: "Dad, what's wrong with you?" ”

"It's nothing, it's an old problem."

Li Yan paused, looking at the bloody handkerchief, his heart felt like a pimple.

"Dad, you don't have to worry about Qingheng's marriage, let her make trouble, and nothing will happen."

"It's easy." Li Cong sneered.

"Ugh." He sighed, as if he had exhaled all his years of sorrow, "Shen Mo is a good boy, but he can't be her husband." ”

"Why?" Li Yan asked suspiciously.

"Shen Mo, this person is not as simple as it seems on the surface, he will cause death to the family, I can't let Shen Mo harm Qing Heng no matter what."

Li Yan was shocked after hearing this.

"It's not...... How did Shen Mo ...... "Maybe?"

"The ambition is not exposed, but the child is hidden deeply." Li Cong sighed twice.

"No, Dad, how do you know?"

"Your father and I have lived for fifty-one, and when the eldest son of the Son of Heaven is about to die of old age now, do you really think that your father and I are alive by luck?"

“……”

Li Yan was speechless.

Li Cong is not his biological father, his biological father is Li Ying, the former prince. At that time, the saint killed his third son in a fit of rage, and from then on, he became Li Cong's son.

The royal family is not as glamorous as it seems, especially as the son of a saint, if you are not careful, it is an abyss.

When he thought about it now, he really admired Li Cong.

As the eldest son, if he is not careful, the position of the crown prince will fall on his head, and he is even more likely to die than others, but ...... He actually lived the longest.

It seems to be rotten, but in fact, every step is secretly calculated to avoid danger and survive.

It's a tough day.

After Li Qingheng packed up, he and Li Cong stepped on the carriage to the Temple of Mercy and Grace.

In the twenty-second year of Tang Taizong's Zhenguan, Tang Gaozong Li Zhi founded the Temple of Mercy and Grace in order to commemorate his mother, Empress Wende's eldest grandson. Xuanzang once presided over the temple affairs here and led the translation of Buddhist scriptures.

The Temple of Mercy and Grace is always lively, with the Big Wild Goose Pagoda standing tall and pedestrians on both sides.

I heard that the Temple of Mercy and Grace is very effective.

Li Qingheng followed Li Cong with a disdain on his face, offered incense, asked the host, and threw incense money.

She doesn't believe in these things in her heart, it's better to ask God than to ask for herself, she really can't ask for a system, and it is most useless to worship Buddha on incense.

After the worship, Li Cong found the host again, and the two talked happily.

Li Qingheng stood next to him and rolled his eyes, anxious in his heart, thinking about when Li Cong would leave.

"This little benefactor." The host moved the Buddha beads in his hand and woke up Li Qingheng, who was wandering, with a light smile on his face, like a Maitreya Buddha.

"Huh?"

"Your father is sick, you should do your filial piety earlier, and I am afraid that you will try your best in the future, and it is also a rare opportunity."

The corners of Li Qingheng's mouth twitched, and he glanced at Li Cong with disgust: "I want to give him filial piety?" At most, make him a bigger coffin. ”

"Buddhism is pure, don't joke at will."

"Oh." Li Qingheng disagreed.

Li Cong said goodbye to the host for a few more words, and then took Li Qingheng out.

It's just that as soon as he got into the carriage, Li Cong said that the Buddha beads he asked for had fallen and asked Li Qingheng to fetch them for him.

Li Qingheng could only take it reluctantly, she couldn't let this old bone run again, it wasn't because it took effort, she didn't care about her life or death, it was mainly time-consuming.

Wasting other people's time is killing people for money.

"Hey, don't leave me behind!"

"What do you think of your father?"

When Li Qingheng came out of the Great Ci'en Temple with the Buddhist beads, there was still the shadow of half a carriage on the side of the street.

Her angry teeth itched.

She knew that Li Cong would leave her and leave! You shouldn't have expectations for Li Cong.

He has no money, and even if he walks, he only walks from the middle of Chang'an City to the north, and he can't say that he is neither near nor far.

Forget it, she resigned herself to her fate and walked back, what a big deal.

Around the corner, she saw a pastry shop, surrounded by many people, and she felt for the empty pockets and resigned herself to her fate.

Aunt Wang's pastries are delicious, even if they are princes and nobles, they have to queue up for half a day early to buy them.

"What's the matter with this Shen Mo, he is actually absent from work, he hasn't seen anyone all day, what is missing from playing with me."

Li Qingheng raised his eyes and glanced at the person who spoke.

Dressed in a green shirt, with a little frizzy feeling on his body, it should be someone Shen Mo knows.

She didn't bother and kept walking home.

When I returned to Zhuxinyuan, it was dark and the twilight drums sounded.

I was sore and sleepy, and I felt like I was about to collapse.

After a brief bath, Li Qingheng put on clean and comfortable clothes, yawned, and went back to the bedroom.

Shen Mo's body was tied with hemp rope, which was similar to the situation of the system.

He sat quietly on the floor under the shelf bed, leaning against the edge of the bed, with his eyes closed, as if he were asleep, as if he were resting himself.

Li Qingheng originally wanted to act today, but she was almost exhausted now, so let's go to bed first.

Shen Mo was tied with a rope, and he couldn't fly.

It's okay to slow down, I'll do it tomorrow, and give Shen Mo a bath by the way.

Li Qingheng fell asleep deeply.

When I woke up the next morning, I only saw a body of intermittent rope, as if it had been broken alive, and Shen Mo had disappeared.

"Jin Yu!"

Li Qingheng shouted, and the braincase that was still chaotic just now became very sober.

Jin Yu hurriedly came in: "What's the matter, county lord?" ”

"What about people?" Li Qingheng asked.

"Who?" Jin Yu was puzzled.

But after only being stunned for a second, Jin Yu immediately realized that he almost jumped up: "Yes, people, what happened to the rope on the ground that was still in your house yesterday?" ”

"Didn't you see him go out?"

"The slaves and maids are guarding outside all night, no, Jin Feng Yulu and I take turns to guard, and not a single fly can fly out."

“……”

That is to say, man did not go out through the door.

Li Qingheng's gaze fell on the floor below the high table.

The floor is loose and someone has clearly moved.

In other words, people have already run away from the tunnels she dug ?!

She didn't have time to put on her shoes, so she came up barefoot, her white feet stepping on the cold floor, and the fit between the soles of her feet and the floor was pink.

She lifted the floor and saw a dark, damp tunnel underneath, with a trail of footprints.

This tunnel was dug in the years when the system disappeared, and if she didn't change her mission, she decided to use it to escape.

But after thousands of calculations, Shen Mo ran away from here.

"Qingheng County Lord Su Su enters the palace to face the saint!"

A shrill voice came from outside the door.

Li Qingheng hurriedly opened the door, and just wanted to go out, when he took a step and felt the pain of his feet being rubbed by the rough ground, he immediately withdrew his feet and looked towards the eunuch who announced the decree.

"Grandpa Zhang, what's the matter?"

This father-in-law is Gao Lishi's apprentice, Li Qingheng happens to know him, and he can be regarded as a talkative relationship.

"County Lord, you made a big mistake this time, digging tunnels privately, and the saint is now angry."
