Jiaochu

Chapter 456 Love House and Crow
After entering the mansion, Ye Lingxi observed all the way. The layout of the mansion was simple and neat. It looked a bit rigid and cold. There were not many flowers and trees in sight. There were tall pines and cypresses everywhere. There were not many servants in the mansion. All of them held their breaths and kept their eyes quiet. They were very disciplined. From this, it seems that General He and his wife are not extravagant and extravagant people, and they are also quite rigorous in running the family.

At this time, a young woman came over with two maids. She waved a round fan in her hand and wore a bright peach blossom skirt, which did not match the simple style of the mansion.

"The playboy is back." The other party's slightly raised almond eyes glanced at the playboy, intentionally or unintentionally seducing him. His eyes fell on Ye Lingxi's dirty face, with a slightly surprised expression and contempt in his eyes. He Gaogao, covering his fan, chuckled and said, "Why did the young master bring a beggar back? The young master doesn't know. There are many girls in the city pretending to be pitiful like this. I just thought that I could meet a soft-hearted person like the young master. From now on, I will be a beggar." Being attached to the young master is like a dog-skin plaster that cannot be shaken off. Young master, please don’t be fooled.”

"Who are you calling bullshit plaster? I'm not a beggar either. My name is He Hua and I'm here to see my elder brother." Ye Lingxi corrected him sternly.

"Look at how dirty you look and your clothes are torn. You are nothing more than a beggar." The other party asked the maid to give Ye Lingxi a few pieces of silver and gave it to Ye Lingxi in a condescending tone, "See you are also a poor person. Just take the money and stop pestering the playboy."

"I didn't pester the playboy. He said he wanted to treat me to a meal and help me find my elder brother." Ye Lingxi raised his hand and grabbed the playboy's sleeve and shook it. "A gentleman's words are hard to follow. You You can’t keep your words.”

Seeing that Ye Lingxi was already moving her hands and feet, a trace of displeasure flashed across her face, "Where did you come from, this crazy girl? If you don't eat the toast, you'll be fined with alcohol. Come on, get me kicked out."

At this time, Mr. Hua said: "I did promise to Miss Hehua that I would help her find her elder brother. Now that I have agreed, I can't break my promise." He took Ye Lingxi and was about to leave, but the young woman stopped him again and asked why. Li, he said he went to the military camp and would come back later.

After walking away, Ye Lingxi asked who the young woman was. Young Master Hua said she was a concubine of the second young master He Lina, called Chun Niang, and she was quite favored by He Li. She asked Mrs. He again, and Mr. Hua said that she had so many problems. He teased her about whether she had fallen in love with He Li, the second young master. She said that he looked fierce and fierce, and he wanted to kill her with an arrow just now on the street. , she is not that stupid to fall in love with such a murderous lunatic.

ah-

He Li sneezed, as if someone was speaking ill of him behind his back. Boss Lei quickly asked him if he felt uncomfortable, if he had caught a cold, and if he wanted to see a doctor. He gave him a cold look, and Lei The boss immediately fell silent.

Arriving in front of a cell, Mr. Lei quickly asked the officers and soldiers guarding the door to open the cell door, and shouted rudely at the people in the cell to come out. The officers and soldiers guarding the door went in, beat and scolded them, and soon drove everyone out.

There were nine people in total, and the salesman was also inside.

He Li glanced at the number of people and asked with cold eyes: "Why is there one missing?"

Boss Lei quickly counted the number of people, and found that one person was indeed missing. He was so anxious that he broke into a cold sweat. He kept mumbling about the impossibility. How could it become nine when ten men were captured?

He Li gave him an hour to find out. If he couldn't find out, he came to see him. Lei Laozhan accepted the order tremblingly. After sending He Li off respectfully, he immediately took people to investigate. After He Li returned to his house, Chun Niang saw that he had an angry look on his face and waited on him carefully. She asked if one of his subordinates had made him angry again. He called Boss Lei a fool and couldn't do a simple errand. Well, really useless.

Chun Niang poured him wine and persuaded him to calm down. Her gentle words and charming words soon made He Li's anger calm down. Chun Niang took the opportunity to mention that the young beggar brought back a little beggar, and complained that the little beggar was ignorant and dared to talk back to her, pretending to be pitiful and aggrieved. Why should she not have to be like a little beggar? She also sighed and said: This playboy has really weird taste, but he just fell in love with a little beggar.

Chun Niang was unwilling to be inferior to a beggar. These days, she had given so many glances overtly and covertly, but this playboy just didn't understand. He was just like a wooden man. Based on the principle of destroying what he couldn't get, where was she lying? Li Huaili said sweetly, "Don't you think this is strange, Erlang? The identity of that little beggar is probably not simple." He Li said, "What's so scary about a girl's movie? She doesn't care about whose territory it is. Who cares?" What kind of monster, once you get in, you can never get out again!"

Afterwards, He Li came to Hua Gongzi and casually asked about Ye Lingxi, the lotus girl. Hua Gongzi said that people fell asleep after eating and were still awake now, probably because they were too tired.

He Li joked: "This lotus girl is really good at eating and sleeping. I really don't know why you fell in love with this girl's movie. You don't want the beauty I gave you before. You can choose any girl in this city. I will be your matchmaker. You No, I thought you were not a womanizer."

Hua Gongzi said: "Second Young Master, I don't know something. This lotus girl looks very similar to an old friend of mine. It is human nature to love houses and birds."

He Li smiled and said: "What a man who loves his family and his friends, he is really magnanimous." At this point, he changed the subject, "I have already asked people to find out. There is no one named He Dahu in the military camp."

Hua Gongzi said without changing his expression: "Perhaps He Dahu did not surrender to the army, or perhaps something unexpected happened on the road. Miss Hehua's relatives are no longer here. She came here alone after traveling thousands of miles and endured countless hardships on the way. This matter is still Don’t let her know, or she’ll be sad.”

He Li smiled and said: "I can't tell that Brother Hua is also a caring person. Since Brother Hua likes this girl, let her live in the house. But if someone is dishonest, Brother Hua, don't blame me for turning against her."

The playboy smiled but said nothing.

The atmosphere was somewhat tense.

He Li changed the topic and said that there was one less strong man captured. At this time, a servant came over to report that Boss Lei was here, and He Li asked someone to bring Boss Lei over. Boss Lei reported that the two escorting officers and soldiers were knocked unconscious and thrown into an alley. According to what they said after they woke up, the man who knocked them unconscious was the strong man escorting them. Boss Lei suspected that he was an accomplice of the assassin and planned to take someone with him. Search house to house.

"The fish has already taken the bait, so why worry." Playboy said.

He Li asked Boss Lei not to alert others, as there would be a good show in two days.
