Happy Little Scholar

Although there were some unpleasant episodes during this shopping trip, fortunately, they were all resolved satisfactorily.

Lin Wanru gave the bottle of perfume to Miss Liu Er. Lin Yong whispered beside her that the two taels of silver perfume was too expensive. The family had been talking about it for half a month. Yesterday, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he bought it for her. Got a bottle.

Lin Yong felt uncomfortable if he didn't talk to anyone, so he just listened. Thinking of something, Li Yi turned to look at Lin Wanru and asked: "Isn't the conflict between the eldest prince and the third prince irreconcilable? , It doesn’t seem like that, is the rumor wrong?”

Lin Wanru looked at him and asked doubtfully, "When did you meet the eldest prince and the third prince?"

Li Yi pointed in a certain direction and said, "Just now, the young man passing by the door of the perfume shop was the third prince. Didn't you see it?"

Lin Wanru was startled and said in surprise: "Is that the third prince?"

Li Yi was even more surprised: "You don't know the third prince?"

Lin Wanru looked at him, with a hint of doubt on her face, and asked: "Although the third prince has been in Fengzhou for more than ten years, he has never made an official appearance. Even some officials in Fengzhou City don't know about him. How do you know his appearance?"

The expression on Li Yi's face was stunned for a moment, then he looked at him and asked doubtfully: "Have you never shown up before?"

"No."

Li Yi thought for a while and said with a smile: "The third prince went to Jingguo Kyoto last time. I saw him from a distance. He looked very similar to the young man just now, but it might not be him. I don't know. Do you, the third prince, have a twin brother or younger brother?"

Lin Wanru shook her head and said, "I've never heard of it."

"Maybe I saw it wrong." Li Yi turned around and looked around, pointing to a shop not far ahead and said: "There is a cloth shop there. Go over and see if there are any new fabrics. The weather is nice today. , Those clouds in the sky are so white, just perfect for buying two pieces of fabric..."

"The weather is nice, the clouds are white, let's buy fabrics..." Looking at Li Yi striding forward, Lin Yong scratched his head and said in surprise: "Does this matter?"

"Let's go."

Lin Wanru whispered something. When she looked up at the back in front of her again, a trace of doubt appeared in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared. She shook her head and followed.

If you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid that thieves will worry about you. If you worry about someone, you will worry about Lin Wanru and Miss Liu Er.

This is Qi State, and he cannot directly intervene in many things. He is about to leave, and since he already knows that Lin Wanru will face some unknown dangers in the future, he cannot pretend not to know and leave.

The eldest prince, you are very busy recently, right? Then keep busy, it is good to be busy, and you will be fulfilled when you are busy...

Li Yi stood at the door of a certain shop, rubbing his brows habitually. When he was worried about the feudal construction of Qi State, an old man came over and asked in a low voice: "This young master, can I disturb the young master for a while?"

Li Yi looked at the old man. He was wearing a Confucian robe, a small book in his hand, and a bamboo tube hanging on his waist. Except for his appearance, he was different from the old man just now. He just came out of a production line.

He sighed and asked, "What's the matter?"

The old man looked at him and said: "The eldest prince led the imperial censors to investigate corrupt officials in Fengzhou. There has been a lot of commotion these days. I wonder what this young master thinks about this matter?"

Straight to the point, the same straightforwardness, the same simplicity and roughness.

Li Yi took a deep breath and asked, "Can I curse?"

The old man glanced at him, frowned and said, "How can a scholar say dirty words?"

"That's out of the question."

Li Yi waved his hand, pointed somewhere and said, "There is a tea stall in front of you. There are many people there. Why don't you go over there and ask?"

"------"

…

Lin Yong walked in front holding a lot of things, while Li Yi and the sloppy old man followed Miss Liu Er and Lin Wanru.

Fengzhou City is really not peaceful these days. Two plainclothes censors can be encountered on the same street. Judging from the analysis of various situations, the relationship between the eldest prince and the third prince is far from good enough to go shopping together. To the point where, on the surface, it is a false brotherhood, but secretly, I don’t know how to stab them.

Li Yi turned to look at the sloppy old man and asked, "Mr. Xu, is there anything going on tonight?"

The sloppy old man glanced at him, shook his head and said, "No."

Li Yi nodded and said: "It's okay if you don't. Your body has not recovered yet. You should pay attention to your injuries and try to do as little trouble as possible..."

The sloppy old man looked at him and asked, "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Li Yi shook his head and said, "No."

"Really?" the sloppy old man asked suspiciously.

"Really not." Li Yi nodded.

…

Under night, in the yard next to Fanglin Garden.

"Be careful."

Li Yi patted the sloppy old man on the shoulder, put an envelope in his hand, and warned him.

The sloppy old man nodded, and when he turned around, he turned around and asked, "Do you need me to bring you that eldest prince's head?"

"No, no, no." Li Yi waved his hand quickly and said, "As long as the things are delivered, you don't need to bring anything back."

After all, this is also the Qi State. If you pick off the head of the eldest prince on someone else's territory, will this Fengzhou City be turned upside down?

At that time, I am afraid that no one will be able to leave the city, and the entire Fengzhou will be turned upside down. No matter how powerful the grandmaster is, he and Miss Liu Er will not be able to fly into the sky and escape...

"Don't forget it."

When the sloppy old man's voice sounded, the person had already disappeared in the courtyard.

Miss Liu Er walked out of the house and asked, "Who were you talking to outside just now?"

"No..." Li Yi waved his hand and walked into the house, saying as he walked: "It's getting late, go to bed early, I have to go to work tomorrow!"

…

Fengzhou City is a heavily guarded post station.

"Your Highness, the rosters of all the people I have found these days are all here." An official placed a thin book on the table, saluted, and then slowly withdrew.

Zhao Zheng picked up the book and paced around the room, flipping through it casually.

"Fifty-three people." He looked at a certain number written on it, and a smile appeared on his face.

Over the past few days, a total of fifty-three officials in Fengzhou have been found guilty of serious corruption.

Not to mention how many of Zhao Yi's confidants are here, but just for these fifty-three positions, if we fight for them, how many of our own people can be put in?

In this way, he has more control over Fengzhou. No matter what Zhao Yi does in the future, it will be under his nose.

If he can dig deeper into this matter, strike while the iron is hot, replace it, and completely become the master of Fengzhou and the neighboring states, Zhao Yi will be like an eagle that has lost its wings. What can he fight with himself?

For him, this is really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Whether he can seize it and change or even reverse the impression of the people and courtiers on him and Zhao Yi, the next days will be crucial, and he will have to make more decisions. More results will do.

After reading the booklet from beginning to end, Zhao Zheng nodded and murmured: "Not bad..."

"The wine is good, but the chicken is too old." A voice came suddenly from inside the room.

"who!"

Zhao Zheng's expression changed, and he turned his head suddenly. He saw an old man with messy hair and a black cloth covering his face sitting at the table. He pointed at a dish on the table with his chopsticks, shook his head and said, "Who made this white chicken?" , Good material wasted for nothing, it’s time to fight!”
