Chapter 319
Yang Guozhong left with his entourage, Li Dai stepped forward and asked, "What did he say?"

Li Ye looked at Yang Guozhong's back and said, "Why don't we find a place to have lunch first!"

The father and son came to the Anranju Restaurant in Guangzhaifang. The business was very good, and almost all of them were officials who came to have lunch.

It was also a coincidence that when I entered the door, I happened to meet Li Xun's father, Li Wei. Li Wei is currently the chief steward of the four Anranju restaurants in Wannian County.

Li Wei was really happy, saluted and said: "I heard that the fifth younger brother is back, does he live in the main mansion or Taipingfang?"

"I live over there in Taipingfang. My brother brings his sister-in-law and children to play together. Ye'er's mother still misses her sister-in-law and Xiaohe all the time!"

"Okay, I'll visit Fifth Brother in two days!"

Li Ye didn't like elegant rooms very much, so Li Wei found a window seat on the second floor for the father and son to sit down, and brought seven or eight dishes and a jug of wine.

Li Ye filled a glass of wine for his father and said, "Yang Guozhong is mainly thanking me for catching the assassin who assassinated his son."

"Ah! Did you catch the assassin?"

Li Ye nodded, "This case has been delayed for a long time, and it has seriously affected the safety of my grandfather. The emperor is ready to take the blame on my grandfather, so I have no choice but to take action."

Li Dai also heard his father talk about the assassination case, and the key to his safe retirement was that the assassination case was resolved.

"But how did you find this female assassin?"

"This is relying on local snakes. In fact, Wang Yuanbao has been watching him for a long time."

"The richest man in Chang'an?"

Li Ye nodded, "He is not only the richest man in Chang'an, but his brother Wang Xuanhai is the biggest tycoon in Chang'an, controlling dozens of martial arts gyms, and the three schools and nine schools in Chang'an all depend on his face."

Li Dai's heart moved, wouldn't it be more important for him to get acquainted with local snakes when he became Jingzhao?
"How do you know Wang Yuanbao and Wang Xuanhai?"

"I first got to know them through His Royal Highness Si Ning. Ning Wang's family has always been Wang Yuanbao's biggest backer, but now it's different. I have a good friend named Zhang Ping. My father should have seen him. He is tall and fat. Do you remember?"

"From what your mother said, it seems that his name is Xiaopang!"

"Yes! That's him. He is now Wang Xuanhai's adopted son, the real adopted son, working for Wang Xuanhai."

Li Dai said slowly: "I want to get to know the Wang brothers and Zhang Ping, and I'm afraid I will deal with them often in the future."

"No problem, when I have time, I will take my father to visit them."

"Let me arrange it! Tomorrow will be fine."

At this moment, Li Dai's face changed and he stared at the stairs. Li Ye looked back and saw several young masters going downstairs one after another.

"Who did father see?"

"There was only one person who went down just now, it seems to be Yuwen Huaide."

Yuwen Huaide is Li Dai's former son Li Huai. He followed his mother to the Yuwen family and changed his name to Yuwen Huaide. After Yuwen Siwu's death, he became very low-key and it was difficult to hear about him again. Unexpectedly, he met him in a restaurant.

Li Ye looked out the window and said to his father for a moment: "Father is right, it is him, if father wants to see him, I will get him back!"

Li Dai shook his head, "I heard that after Yuwen Siwu died, Yu Wenhui regarded him as his own son, and his name was hung in the Yuwen Family Ancestral Hall. Last year your grandfather celebrated his [-]th birthday, and he never appeared at all. He has nothing to do with the Li family."

"In that case, why should father care about him?"

Li Dai sighed and said: "I don't want to care about him, but after all he called me Daddy when he was a child, hey!"

Li Ye didn't say a word, he also knew that the blood relationship between father and son can't be eliminated just by talking about it. Yang Guozhong reminded himself to be careful of Yuwen family and Wu family.

After lunch, Li Dai went to Jingzhao Mansion, while Li Ye came to the mansion of Li Yu, King of Hanzhong. Li Yu's mansion was located in Xuanyangfang, a large house covering an area of ​​more than ten acres.

Li Yu is currently serving as the National Academy of Jijiu, replacing Wu Xin who was dismissed before, but Li Yu is not very keen on officialdom, and if he goes to the government office to look for him, there is a high probability that he can't be found. All chores are pushed to his subordinates, and he himself likes to wander around.

Another great advantage of Li Yu is that he is well-informed. He can't hide anything from him. Li Ye came to him today because he wanted to inquire about some news.

Today Li Yu was in the mansion, when he heard that Li Ye was coming, he personally invited Li Ye to the guest hall.

"Is Mr. Qinglian here?" Li Ye asked with a smile.

"Unfortunately, he was invited by Wang Wei to Wangchuan Bieye in Lantian County as a guest. He left yesterday. It seems that he also visited several poets. I know that Du Fu and Gao Shi also went. Maybe Wang Changling was also there. They also invited me. I don't have that kind of elegance."

Li Ye felt a little regretful, but it didn't matter, he didn't come here specifically to find Li Bai.

"Mr. Qinglian came to Chang'an this time to seek a job, right?" Li Ye asked again with a smile.

Li Yu nodded, and said with a wry smile: "He came to seek a job, but I recommended him to teach in Taixue, but he said that he didn't want to be here, so he declined my recommendation, and I have no choice.

He actually wants to govern the local area, but his personality is really not suitable. What he does depends entirely on his mood. When he is in a good mood, he handles a few official duties, but when he is in a bad mood, he is too lazy to do anything. "

Li Ye smiled slightly: "Last time I talked about Suiye with Mr. Qinglian. I invited him to go back to Suiye to have a look. In fact, I invited him to work in Hezhong Governor's Mansion. I may not have made it clear at the time, so I will mention it to him in person today to see if he is interested?"

Li Yu shook his head, "It's unlikely, he hates tedious chores, unless he commits a crime in the Central Plains, it's possible to hide in Suiye, but under normal circumstances, I don't think he will go, of course, I will tell him what you want, let him choose, just let you not have too high expectations, in fact, a person who writes poems well is often not good at being an official, and Zhang Jiuling is the only person who can write poems as an official."

At this time, two maids came in and filled them with freshly brewed milk tea, and a strong milky fragrance came over their faces.

Li Ye smiled and said: "The milk tea in Prince Ning's Mansion, I really miss it!"

"Try it, this milk tea is improved by me, it has a strange fragrance."

Li Ye picked up the hot tea cup and took a sip. Indeed, apart from the milky fragrance, there was also an indescribable fragrance, a bit like Persian rose oil.

"Not bad! The taste is very attractive and you can't stop it."

Li Yu chuckled, "Actually, I just put a little edible rose oil in it and added a little salt, so the sweetness and saltiness are just right, and there is also the smell of roses, so the taste is very special."

Li Ye nodded, it really was rose scented oil!
The two of them got back to business, and Li Ye asked after a moment of pondering, "What's the situation of Yuwen's family now?"

Li Yu smiled and said: "I guess you will definitely pay attention to the Yuwen family. Last year, Chen Xuanli discovered a group of soldiers in the Yuwen family's Hedong Manor. This incident killed Yu Wenjing. Yu Wenjing died. He claimed that he died of illness, but in fact he committed suicide in fear of crime.

For the sake of Yu Wenjing's suicide, the emperor let the Yuwen family go, but all the main members including Yuwentong and Yuwenhui were dismissed, leaving only the titles. "

"Where is Yuwen Luo?" Li Ye asked again.

"She has become a widow again. It has only been two years since she remarried. Her husband Hou Mochen Nu died of illness last month. I heard that she has returned to her mother's house."

Li Ye was silent for a moment, then asked again: "What's the news from the Wu family?"
