Chapter 242: Who's Setting Up the Bureau (2nd Update)
As Yang Ruo guessed, the woodpecker that Yang Fan shot with a slingshot was really caught by Wang Qi, and then the rice was released.
It's just because Li Mingtang feels very bad about him. Maybe it's the intuition of people who practice martial arts. He could feel that there was a heavy murderous aura in him
Although he looks very polite on the surface, he can't say why, Wang Qi is always a little wary of him.
said that he asked Yang Ruo to help cook, but he made a mistake, it was a gift, and he gave a heavy gift in advance?
So when Li Mingtang encouraged Yang Fan to shoot the rice with a slingshot, he made preparations. Once Yang Fan knocked down the woodpecker, he would make a move.
He didn't make a move in advance because he didn't want to startle the snake.
The pain of losing his grandfather made him sober up a lot, and he began to pay attention to what was happening around him and the changes in some people.
And after a few days of observation, he finally felt that something was wrong. Because there are a few more people here.
For example, Gongsun Jin, who suddenly came here, made him a little suspicious. Recently, he and Yang Ruo have also been very close. And why did he suddenly go to Xicai Village, why did he get lost later, and then Murong Jie and Yang Ruo went to find him together.
said that he went there because Yang Ruo didn't believe it. A dignified Hou Ye, what kind of woman does he want, he will put down his body for a Yang Ruo.
There is also that Li Mingtang, what is his identity. Why did he deliberately want to get close to Yang Ruo. With the Li Mansion is a force, can't you invite a good cook?
What is the thing that made them all like cats smelling fishy, come to the remote place of Xijing.
Did you come to the dungeon? Or is it true, as grandpa said, that they are here for him?
In short, he had to be careful step by step, but he couldn't let Yang Ruo be in any danger.
So after Li Mingtang left with Yang Ruo, Wang Qi also quietly followed.
The people who were staring at Li Mingtang here recognized Wang Qi, and someone immediately rushed to report Murong Jie and Gongsun Jin.
Therefore, when Wang Qi followed him to the vicinity of Li's mansion, someone found him.
Looking at the suddenly extra wall in front of him, Wang Qi didn't have much surprise. Instead, he said politely: "Lord Prefect, what does this mean?" ”
Seeing that Wang Qi was pretending to be stupid, Murong Jie could only pretend to be stupid, he hurriedly said: "It's not interesting, how can I say that we also met once, it's a rare encounter, how about I invite you to drink?" ”
"I'm sorry, I'm not interested. If the adults don't have anything else to do, I'll go first. When Wang Qi was about to walk past Murong Jie, "If you want to know Li Mingtang's true identity, come with me." ”
Wang Qi's footsteps really paused, and then he glanced at the Li Mansion uneasily. Murong Jie glanced at the two people beside him, and the two of them hurriedly bowed down, walked towards the vicinity of the Li Mansion, and then hid their figures.
"Don't worry, if Yang Ruo is fine, I'll let them watch."
After Wang Qi heard him say this, he put his mind at ease and said, "I hope I didn't believe in the wrong person." ”
Murong Jie had a rather helpless expression on his face. "Why, you don't even believe me?"
"I don't believe anybody."

Yang Ruo followed Li Mingtang to the Li Mansion, and when she went to the Li Mansion, she felt that the mansion she bought was a scum in the eyes of others. It's not even a snail dwelling.
The environment of this Li Mansion is elegant, the terrain is superior, the ground is paved with white marble, and on the curtains and door frames, you can see strings everywhere, shining like pearls.
Later, she asked Yu'er, only to find out that the things inlaid on the door frames and curtains were all jade.
What a loser.
Such a good thing was ruined.
When he saw the end, Yang Ruo was already speechless, this is really a fucking luxury, just covering an area of more than a thousand tilts, and the huge garden behind it, it is said that behind the rockery is a huge hot spring pool.
Entering the Li Mansion is the fragrance of the nose, the fragrance of various flavors, floral, fruity, fat powder, lingering on the nose. All kinds of handmaidens with lovely looks and beautiful flowers can be seen everywhere.
After careful inquiry, Yang Ruo learned that the Li Mansion was also the home of the official eunuchs. Li Mingtang's brother is called Li Mingze, who is Yu'er's father.
At present, he is in charge of the position of salt transport envoy in Xijing, and he is also an official from Sipin. Li Mingtang used to be an official in Kyoto, and Yu'er couldn't tell what kind of official it was, she said that she was a big official anyway.
Yang Ruo thought that Yu'er was a kid joking, so he didn't care. It's just that he used to be an official in Kyoto, and she paid a little attention to it.
Yang Fan was more curious than Yang Ruo, after all, he was a child, although after he came in, he pretended to be reserved, but after seeing the prosperity of the Li Mansion, he also felt that his brain was not enough.
"Third sister, have we entered the palace?" When the beautiful maids saw them enter, they immediately brought all kinds of fresh fruits and vegetables for them to enjoy.
Yang Fan didn't take it at first, but after getting Yan Ruo's permission, he let go of his stomach and ate it.
Li Yuheng originally had an older brother, but because his brother had an accident at the age of sixteen and died early, they were left with her baby daughter, and her mother died of illness five years ago due to excessive sadness.
Therefore, the young Yu'er has no mother since she was a child, and although his father loves her, he rarely has time to accompany him because he is usually busy with official business.
Even if she has time to come back, she is urged to learn various etiquette and read.
Li Mingze also has two aunts and wives, but they are all sons.
Therefore, in the Li family, only Li Yuheng is a girl, and the old lady of the Li family is indeed very fond of this only granddaughter.
Fortunately, this year, Li Mingtang's uncle has been with her, making her life much more comfortable than before, but it has also attracted the jealousy of the other two rooms.
However, they are jealous and jealous, but on the surface, they are doing well.
The son of the second room, named Li Yuxing, is eighteen years old, has been admitted to Xiucai, and is currently endorsing hard, preparing for this year's autumn exam, and is a complete nerd.
The most headache is the son of Sanfang, Li Yuzhen, a sixteen-year-old boy with developed limbs and a slightly simple mind. In this family, he is the one whose personality and temper are most similar to his father. It's a fiery temper, just a little bit.
usually likes to work against Li Yuheng, but this time when they got together, Li Yuheng inadvertently praised Yang Ruo's cooking skills.
In front of Hao Mingyue and them, it was Li Yuzhen who said that he looked down on Yang Ruo, a country cook. Later, Song Qiong came, and even more hyped up that Yang Ruo had stolen her horse.
Li Yuheng was not convinced, and stood up to find a place for Yang Ruo, and later made a bet with them. said that it was tomorrow, to see Yang Ruo's true skills.
