Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 249 Darkroom
What An Guogong and Li Sheng said was really fierce.

When Gu Xiang entered, the corner of An Guogong's mouth was bruised quite a lot. If bumps and bumps could really make it like this, her Fuyun Building should be demolished and rebuilt.

Well, Li Sheng didn't hurt a single hair on the surface, but he blinked too fast, and there was slight sweat on his forehead, so he must have been hurt in some hidden place.

Gu Xiangquan pretended not to notice, and ignored the business between master and servant, he just gently put down the tray, took the bowl and spoon to serve the porridge, walked over to Li Sheng, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, please use it."

Zhao Ying: "..."

Li Sheng: So cool!The few feet that were stepped on just now are nothing.

Gu Xiang: An Guogong is a noble person. He must be very careful about the things he imports. I remember that when he was in the Yongyi Army, it seemed that the food was inspected in advance before being served to him. It is only serious to let Li Changsui taste it first.

"The Duke of the country is also slow to use."

Gu Xiang smiled, gave a little blessing, and pushed the door away, "The little girl will go up first, Mr. Li is just pretending, don't forget to drink more."

The state of being full and full is completely different from being hungry. If she doesn't feed Li Sheng enough, and meets someone who likes to think too much, she might be exposed.

Watching Gu Xiang go out, Zhao Ying stared at Li Sheng sitting leisurely on the chair, drinking the porridge with a bowl in his arms, even looking at him, he felt that the porridge was very fragrant.

Zhao Ying coughed lightly, walked over silently and filled a bowl for herself.

Swallowing it in one bite, it still has the original taste, soft and glutinous, fragrant and slippery. The pork liver is not soft to bite, but it is very chewy and very delicious.

"Third Lady is asking you to test the poison for me, and it's not for you to eat it sincerely."

Li Sheng rolled his eyes, went over to scoop up a bowl again generously, and didn't sit down anymore, just guarded the casserole and ate it happily.

Zhao Ying: "You kid, you dared to hit me just now, and now you are still angry with me, you really have grown up!"

Li Sheng sneered: "You are very capable, what did you want to do just now? Do you want to bump into my sword yourself? But if my hand is not steady, it will be an inch and a half, okay, I will pay for my life. That's all, I'm unlucky, I've been implicated by you so many times since I was a child, I'm very used to it. But my father, my mother, why should my brothers and sisters be implicated?"

Zhao Ying looked over innocently.

Li Sheng choked suddenly, he couldn't scold him at all, who could scold his mother with his face?

"never mind."

If the Duke of the State cannot return to Beijing in a smooth manner, these idiots in the government will really be used by Xixia and those rebellious officials and thieves. The calamity of subsidence.

Compared with these, his Li family took some risks, but it was nothing.

Before leaving Beijing this time, Li Sheng never thought that his son would cause him so much trouble.

Speaking of it, I would like to thank Miss Gu, because of her background, my father-in-law put a lot of effort into investigating the cause and effect, all the reasons, and the posture of inquiring into the bottom is extremely scary, even if he was on business for His Majesty before, he has never seen him so hard.

As a result, after the investigation, the matter of the little lady has not been clarified, but the cause of the death of Princess Changrong was found to be somewhat unusual.

Fifteen years ago, the princess was injured and had a hard time giving birth. She gave birth to a daughter with difficulty and unfortunately died.

The cause of this incident was that outside Bianliang City, on the Jinshui River, water bandits boarded boats and robbed them, causing a big commotion.

At that time, I checked inside and out for a long time. The robbers were a group of refugees. Because of the exploitation of the local corrupt officials, they fell into bandits and fled outside the capital for some reason. Luxurious and greedy, this accident happened.

But there are many things in it that are a bit vague. Zhao Ying read the file and always felt that it was a bit inconsistent.

Because of this, the son-in-law specially asked someone to read the vast amount of relevant files in the imperial city's secret cabinet, but he didn't find out about the princess' affairs, but he found some unexpected things.

The son checked the water bandits and found out about the water transport. He only looked at the promotion rewards and punishments of the shipping department officials over the years, the number of cargo ships on the canal over the years, and the transportation of tea, salt, gold, and copper. I came to a conclusion.

Some people in the court are doing business with those Xia people and Liao people, and they do any business, as long as they make money.

Li Sheng didn't understand how the son of his family came to this conclusion from those irrelevant materials.Anyway, he knew that his son was good at other things, his brain was very good, and he didn't miss it every time he guessed.

Li Sheng would not be convinced by his ability.

At the beginning, Li Sheng really didn't take it seriously, but the more investigations became more serious, even the rebellion of the local thieves was inextricably related to this group of people.

They also have eyeliner in the army, and not just eyeliner.

Of course, not to mention his own son, even Li Sheng is not afraid of them.

These rats hiding in the gutter can't see the light at all, but the imperial court has not yet done its best in suppressing the rebellion, and some spies from Xixia have come out to disrupt the situation and plot wrongdoings. Although their power in the Imperial City Division is great, they are mostly concentrated in the capital. In places like Shouling, they are understaffed and not powerful enough.

At the time of the partial investigation, he never thought that the matter would be so serious. He and the young master had been exposed to each other's eyes from the very beginning, but now through formal channels, even important news could not be spread out.

Li Sheng: "..."

He really felt that his face was ripped off alive and thrown to the ground and trampled on.

"The Li family sent someone to pick up the third lady to go to Beijing. This matter has been brewing for a long time. Everyone's thoughts are on those gossips. It's better to go with the third lady's boat than to go with Mrs. Gao's boat. Much safer."

Li Sheng said softly, "The old lady's identity is there, and those people are more vigilant against her than us. Moreover, there is still a large shortage of military rations here. If the old lady is not here, I am afraid that the army's logistics will not be stable. "

Zhao Ying nodded solemnly.

Li Sheng glanced at him and then again, hesitant to speak.

Zhao Ying frowned: "If you want to say it, just say it, what do you look like."

Li Sheng: "...Forget it."

Zhao Ying stared at him, feeling like a lump in his throat, held back for a while, then lifted his foot and stepped on Li Sheng's instep, crushing it hard.

Li Sheng: "..."

Childish ghost!
Instead of worrying that he can't hold back on the road and offends the little lady of the Gu family, it's better to worry that he won't dare to say a few words to the little lady all the way, and then suffocate himself to death.

At this time the moonlight was dark.

The fireworks of "Gu Ji" also gradually went out.

Gu Xiang came over and opened the door of the dark room, picked up Li Sheng, and personally escorted him out from the private room. After a moment of thought, he went back to the room and took a wine gourd from under the table.

"I know Mr. Li doesn't like drinking, this wine is just fruit wine, not intoxicating."
