You are back

Chapter 57 Identity
Pei Qing stared at Li Yan, who was staring at the piles of pearls, jades and gemstones in a daze, and then glanced at the jewelry that was full of cases, calmly, a jade tree with a familiar appearance, his brows were slightly frowned and immediately relaxed, Walking to Li Yan's side, he stretched out his hand to pick up a string of pink beads the size of lotus seeds, rolled them around twice, and handed them to Li Yan, "It's fine to hold the cage in your hand."

Then he picked up an emerald cloud-head hairpin, "This one can also be used." Putting down the hairpin, he picked up a string of beeswax beads, a white butterfly pendant with flowers and suet, a red coral jade lotus leaf hairpin, a Only Bu Yao studded with precious stones and a pair of amethyst earrings were lined up in front of Li Yan, "These are passable."

Pei Qing chose the same way, the shopkeeper next to him waited for a while, then put them away neatly, and put them in a row on the purple velvet tray held by the servant.

Li Yan turned his head and glanced at the tray in the boy's hand, and then turned around, Pei Qing had already picked out a dozen more pieces, reached out and picked up the precious jade on the case, frowned, "Let's do this first, these, Pei Qing pointed to the red gold jewelry piled up on the other side, "Choose one or two of the latest styles."

"Yes, yes, yes!" The shopkeeper agreed repeatedly, and with one step forward, his two hands were so nimble that people were dazzled, and in a short while put half of the red gold jewelry into the servant's tray.

Pei Qing glanced at it and motioned to Li Yan. As he walked out, he said warmly: "Just use it first. I've already sent someone to buy it."

Li Yan was still holding the string of pink pearls in his hand, looking up at Pei Qing, she couldn't tell what she felt, those pearls... If there was only one, such as this string of pearls in her hand, no matter what, she would have to be excited for a while , but now...she is numb.

After leaving the jewelry store, a large cart surrounded by indigo silk was parked at the door, Jin Dou was leading the horse with a whip, Yu Su raised the curtain, Li Yan got into the car, Pei Qing followed closely behind and also got into the car, Jin Dou signaled he was a little dazed There is a small car behind on the Yushu.

"There is a place, you have to go and have a look." Pei Qingduan sat opposite Li Yan, said while stretching out his hand to straighten the cloak nestled next to Li Yan.

Li Yan glanced at his hand that was slowly arranging the cloak, and there was an indescribable feeling in her heart. She felt that that hand seemed uncomfortable.

"Before you enter the capital, you must have a suitable identity." Pei cleaned up his cloak, took a few glances at Duanxiang, and then looked at Li Yan and continued.

Li Yan was stunned for a moment before realizing that she was going to Li's house in the capital?She just went to the capital first to have a look. If she couldn't reach Li's house, the situation is unclear at the moment. She still...she doesn't know the situation, but he must know it well...

"The Li family moved from Yuzhang to the capital from the generation of old Li Xiangguo Li Qing'an." Pei Qing stretched out his hand and opened the car curtain halfway, "Today, it is the fifth generation. The two prime ministers of the Li family, you Have you heard of it?"

Li Yan nodded, Zhou Rui told her once.

"Well." Pei Qing paused, and then continued: "Old Li Xiangguo's eldest son died early, and Xiao Li Xiangguo is the eldest grandson. Old Li Xiangguo brought him by his side and raised him personally. Li Xiangguo's arbitrariness is ruthless, but he does not have the scheming methods of the old Li Xiangguo, and after less than ten years as prime minister, the country perished and brought disaster to the Li family."

Li Yan was dumbfounded when he heard that, was he overwhelmed?The Li family is gone?What about the Li family in the capital now?
"Only Li Ronghai, the seven-year-old youngest son of Li Xiangguo, survived the disaster and escaped to Li Ronghai's mother's home in Nanyang. Li Ronghai lived in Nanyang for 13 years. , The following year, the imperial court summoned Li Ronghai back to Beijing, but Lin was pregnant with Liujia and was unable to go with her. Two months later, Li Ronghai's eldest son Li Changnan was born, and Lin died of dystocia."

Speaking of Lin's death due to dystocia, Pei Qing paused, and sighed lightly, "After Li Ronghai arrived in the capital, he continued to marry a girl from the Chen family in Jiangling, who is now Mrs. Chen." Pei Qing looked at Li Yan, the corner of his mouth Bending upwards with a slight smile, "Chen Yanfeng is also a child of the Chen family in Jiangling."

Li Yan nodded a few times, signaling Pei Qing to continue.

"Li Ronghai did not take Li Changnan to the capital. Li Changnan grew up in Nanyang, married his wife Gao, and gave birth to a daughter. When the daughter was two years old, both Li Changnan and his wife died of an epidemic in Nanyang City. Gao Yannian, Gao's elder brother, brought this Daughter, moved to Lu'an, at the beginning of this year, Gao Yannian died of illness, before he died, entrusted you to me, brought you to the capital, and recognized your ancestors."

"Is this...true or fake?" Li Yan raised his hand and pressed it on his forehead. What Pei Qing said about having a name and a surname has a cause and effect sounds just as true.

"If you think it's true, then it's true." Pei Qing stared at Li Yan's expression closely.

"Where is this daughter? Is she alive? Or has she died a long time ago?" Li Yan patted his forehead. This identity seemed to be very bad.

"I don't know, Gao Yannian took her south that year, and she has never been seen since then." Pei Qing lowered his eyelids, avoiding Li Yan's gaze.

"Nowhere to be seen." Li Yan repeated, "Fake someone else's identity, what if the real person shows up? What if someone finds out? What if..."

"With me, don't worry." Pei Qing softly interrupted Li Yan's string of what-ifs.

"Also, if you say I am, then I am? How old is Li Ronghai this year? Isn't he an old fool? And that old Mrs. Chen..." Li Yan always felt that it was a bit unreliable, pretending to be someone else's identity, Make her feel like she is committing a crime.

"Li Ronghai has been dead for seven or eight years. Mrs. Chen is still alive. Don't worry, I'm here." Pei Qing said with great certainty and confidence. Li Yan looked sideways at him. Pei Qing met Li Yan's gaze and smiled. It became more and more intense, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything. We're here, right here."

As soon as Pei Qing finished speaking, the car stopped, and the curtain was lifted. Pei Qing jumped out of the car first, and turned to help Li Yan. Li Yan sideways avoided his hand, and jumped down from the car with his skirt in his arms. Putting on the cloak, the hem of the cloak was caught in the crack of the car door, and Li Yan was pulled violently to one side.Pei Qing stretched out his arms to hug Li Yan, and pulled out the cloak smoothly.

Li Yan coughed a few times after being pulled by the cloak strap, before he breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you."

Pei Qing laughed, bent down, and looked carefully at Li Yan's neck, "I hope I didn't hurt you."

Li Yan felt uncomfortable being watched by him, so he hurriedly took two steps back, "What are you here to see?"

"That's Li Ronghai's residence in Nanyang. It's also the place where Li Changnan grew up and got married and gave birth to his daughter. Go in and have a look. This is the back alley, and the front is a small street. Walk through them all." Pei Qing pointed at the two places in front of them. A battered black painted courtyard door.

Jin Dou pushed open the courtyard door, Pei Qing was in front, and Li Yan followed closely into the courtyard door.

The inside of the yard was even more dilapidated than the outside, half of the wing rooms on both sides had collapsed, the three upper rooms were alright, and the yard was full of weeds.
