Happy Little Scholar

"Your Li family..."

Zeng Shichun murmured, then looked at the two of them with a new look, and said: "You, you, you have..."

Li Yi made eye contact with him, and then nodded.

Zeng Shichun was stunned for a long time, then nodded and said: "Okay, that's fine."

He looked at Li Yi and spoke again: "My eldest brother and sister-in-law have passed away. It is the best choice to return their spiritual tablets to the ancestral hall. I, Zeng Shichun, swore to God that in my lifetime, I will wash away the grievances of my eldest brother and free them both." The spiritual tablet is placed majestically in front of the Zeng family ancestral hall.”

Zeng Zuimo looked up at him, with slight fluctuations in his eyes.

Li Yi shook his head and said, "Master Zeng is Master Zeng, and the Zeng family is the Zeng family."

"I can represent the Zeng family."

"If you could represent the Zeng family, we wouldn't come today."

"I……"

Li Yi waved his hand and asked, "So, should you bring it over, or should we go get it?"

Zeng Shichun shook his head and said: "Outsiders are not allowed to enter the Zeng family's ancestral temple, so I'll go get it."

After speaking, he glanced at Zeng Zijian and said, "Zijian, come with me."

Li Yi held Zui Mo's hand, sat down beside him, and asked, "Did he tell you the same thing last time?"

Zeng Zuimo shook his head and said: "The last time he was not at the house, it was..."

She didn't say any more, but seeing the woman's attitude towards her just now, it was not difficult to imagine what happened last time.

A trace of anger suddenly rose in Li Yi's heart. He really should have found a few more excuses and slapped him a few more times. Suddenly he caught a glimpse of a head looking at the door. He frowned and said in a cold voice: "Who is sneaking around there?" of?"

"Misunderstanding, my lord, I misunderstood, it's a lower official, it's a lower official..."

Mr. Han just walked in from the outside hurriedly, bowed and said: "It's because of the poor instruction of the subordinates and the naughty dog ​​that collided with Mr. Li. I hope that you will not forget the villain's fault and spare him this time..."

Li Yi waved his hand and said, "It was Mr. Han who misunderstood. Speaking of which, it was me who disturbed Mr. Ling, so he was scalded by the hot water. I don't know how badly he was injured. I hope Mr. Han won't blame him."

"How could it be possible, how could it be..." Mr. Han waved his hands repeatedly, feeling relieved and said: "In this case, I will resign first, resign..."

"Go ahead, go ahead." Li Yi waved his hand again, "Since Mr. Ling is injured, you might as well recuperate for two days. As for him talking about His Majesty behind your back, wait two days before talking about it."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Han's legs went weak, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he said anxiously: "Sir, misunderstanding, this is all a misunderstanding. Even if Quanzi is so brave, he would not dare to speak ill of Your Majesty..."

"Master Han, don't be anxious. Since it is a misunderstanding, I believe that the Secret Service will definitely clear the young master's innocence..."

"Secret Agent..." Mr. Han's face changed wildly. After muttering a few words, he slowly raised his head and said with some resentment: "Mr. Li, do you really want to kill all my Han family? Do you think, With no basis or evidence, His Majesty will believe your words and go to great lengths to touch my Han family? "

"Does Your Majesty believe it? Don't you, Mr. Han, still have no idea?"

Plop!

Mr. Han's legs weakened and he knelt down on the ground, shouting: "Mr. Li, please spare my life!"

…

"Master Han, do you want to leave?"

Zeng Shichun held two wooden boxes and walked to the door of the room when he happened to see Master Han walking out.

Mr. Han looked pale, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, and said: "There are still some things in the yamen. Han will leave first. There are so many disturbances today..."

After bidding farewell to Mr. Han and without sending any more gifts, Zeng Shichun walked into the room, handed the wooden box into Zui Mo's hand, and said, "When will you figure it out? You can come back to me at any time."

Zeng Zuimo opened the wooden box and looked at it, then closed it again, stood up with the wooden box in his arms, bowed slightly and said, "Thank you."

She turned to look at Li Yi and whispered, "Let's go back."

Li Yi patted her hand and said, "Sit here for a while. Mr. Zeng and I have something to say."

He looked at Zeng Shichun and said, "Master Zeng, can you take a moment to speak?"

Zeng Shichun nodded, and the two of them came to the side hall next to them.

Li Yi cupped his hands casually, "I haven't congratulated Master Zeng yet for being promoted to Jing Zhaoyin..."

Zeng Shichun returned the gift and said, "It's not a blessing to Mr. Li."

If he still didn't know the meaning of what Li Yi said to him that day in the palace, his life would have been in vain all these years.

"Since you know it's thanks to me..." Li Yi nodded and said, "Then Master Zeng won't mind, can you do me a small favor?"

Although he had already thought that this matter was related to him, he did not expect that he would not shirk it at all. After Zeng Shichun was stunned, he looked at him with some caution and asked, "I don't know what Master Li wants Zeng to help." busy?"

Li Yi looked at him and asked, "Jing Zhaoyin, you have your own mansion, right?"

Not knowing what he meant by this, Zeng Shichun nodded and said: "The imperial court did build a mansion for Jing Zhaoyin, which is located in the Kyoto Yamen."

"After Mr. Zeng takes office, will he move to Jingzhao Yin Mansion?"

Zeng Shichun looked at him suspiciously and asked, "What does Marquis Li mean? You might as well tell him directly."

"Then I'll tell you the truth." Li Yi looked around, then turned back and said, "I want the Zeng Mansion."

Li Yi looked at him with stern eyes: "I want you to move out. I want this place in Zeng Mansion. Mr. Zeng, please give me a price."

"What?" Zeng Shichun was stunned for a moment, then shook his head violently, "This is impossible. This is the ancestral home of the Zeng family, how could it be sold to you? Besides, Jingzhao Yin Mansion is only a temporary residence. If the position changes, Where do you want me to live?”

"Master Zeng can buy another house. Anyway, the location of your Zeng Mansion is not very good. If you change the place, change the feng shui, change the mood, maybe it can be run regularly, and the career will be smoother?" Li Yi looked at him, Said: "There are many good places in Kyoto, why would Mr. Zeng stick to this one place?"

"No, this is absolutely not possible." Zeng Shichun shook his head violently and said resolutely: "The ancestral home should not be abandoned lightly. I have worked hard to recover it. I apologize that I cannot help."

Li Yi sighed and said, "Master Zeng, this is the first time I ask you for help."

"There is nothing I can do about this matter."

"Master Zeng, you know what I am..." Li Yi looked at him and smiled: "A person like me can do anything to achieve his goal..."

Zeng Shichun looked at him and asked: "Do you still want to rob me if I don't agree?"

"Master Zeng, don't be joking. Wouldn't that make you a robber?" Li Yi shook his head and said, "I'm a serious person and I don't know how to do that kind of thing. How about I find a new place for Master Zeng, and I guarantee that the location is worse than here." Well, it’s safer, and the rest of the Zeng family will never blame you..."

Zeng Shichun had a bad premonition in his heart and asked: "Where?"

"What do you think of the Penal Department Prison, Mr. Zeng? If Mr. Zeng thinks that the Penal Department Prison is not good, it doesn't matter. There are also the Dali Temple Prison and the Secret Service Prison to choose from, but I don't recommend going to the last one. It's easy to get in, and it's easy to get out. Difficult... It should be much cheaper to buy this place from the imperial court. "

Zeng Shichun's expression changed, "What do you mean?"

"When I was in the garden just now, I accidentally overheard Master Ling discussing state affairs with others. I have to say that Mr. Zeng has a good family tradition. Mr. Zeng is concerned about the country and the people, and is also very worried about His Majesty's health. Regarding His Majesty's arrival in a year or two, Beng, I am particularly worried about who will take over..."

"That was obviously what the boy from the Han family said!"

"I don't know about this." Li Yi shook his head and said, "There is a screen blocking the outside. I don't know who said it, but it doesn't matter. I'll just ask you when the time comes. The Secret Service is the best at these things. …”

Zeng Shichun looked at him and asked word for word: "What does the Zeng family's old house do to you? Why are you forcing yourself so hard?"

"It's useless to me." Li Yi shook his head, "But she likes it."

Zeng Shichun was stunned when he heard this, and his face soon showed surprise.

"It's Zui Mo..." He shook his head and said, "Forget about the prison of the Criminal Department, let's find a better place."

Li Yi shook his head and said, "She doesn't know about this matter, so Master Zeng shouldn't tell her yet."

Zeng Shichun looked at him deeply and said, "This year, you must let Zeng Mansion have a good life, right?"

"That's natural." Li Yi nodded, thought for a while, and then asked, "Can it be 20% cheaper after the New Year?"
