Happy Little Scholar

Chapter 847 Whose Hair?

"What did you just say?"

When he walked out of Zeng Mansion and walked back to Yangliu Lane, Zeng Zuimo turned his head and asked Li Yidao curiously.

"It's nothing..." Li Yi held the two wooden boxes, shook his head, and said, "I'll ask Mr. Zeng what dowry he plans to prepare for you then."

"I haven't agreed yet."

"Then I don't care..."

"Why are you such a rogue?"

"Why, don't you like it?"

"……like."

After entering the room and placing her parents' spiritual tablets, Li Yi burned incense with her and sat by the bed.

She looked at the lit incense and murmured: "At that time, the government said that daddy was embezzling food and wages, so they sent people to arrest daddy. People from the Zeng family, they, they threw our things out of the house, saying that daddy had done that. This matter is not about the Zeng family, and don’t drag the Zeng family down..."

She held Li Yi's hand slowly and hard, and her voice became lower and lower: "My mother committed suicide, my father was taken away by the government, and I was also taken away by them and brought to Jiaofangsi, Jiaofangsi..., the name is nice, But no one knows what kind of place it was. Several sisters I met there died not long after. I remember one time, I only ate one moldy steamed bun in three days. At that time, I was so scared, so I'm afraid that I will be like them one day..."

"It's all over, it's all over..." Li Yi held her shoulders and gently stroked her hair, with a trace of love in his eyes.

No wonder she always kept secret about her previous experiences. What she suffered during those days would be something that no one would be willing to mention easily.

Her eyes were slightly absent-minded and she murmured: "Later, my mother bought me from the Jiaofang Division and brought me to Qing'an Mansion. At that time, I swore that I would never come back to this place again in my life..."

Li Yi lowered his head and asked softly: "Then why did you come back later?"

"Because Sister Ruoqing is here." She turned her head and looked at Li Yi and said, "Because you are also here..."

Li Yi pinched her nose and said, "So you were planning on me at that time?"

"Thank you..." She leaned comfortably in Li Yi's arms, closed her eyes, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said softly.

Li Yi said in surprise: "Thank you for what?"

"Just thank you..."

"Just saying thank you doesn't have much sincerity...well..."

Before Li Yi finished speaking, two soft lips pressed against his lips.

The weather is good today, and even people's mood can't help but feel better, and they can't help but think of some happy things.

After walking out of Yangliu Lane and seeing Lao Fang next to the carriage, Li Yi was surprised and said, "Why are you here?"

"When I passed by just now, I saw the carriage. I guess my uncle must be here." Lao Fang straightened up and asked, "Are you going home now?"

"Don't go back yet." Li Yi shook his head and said, "Send someone to the Zeng Mansion to hand over a notice to invite Zeng Shichun out."

Zui Mo was also at Zeng's house just now, so there were some things that he couldn't ask too much about, but since everything had been explained today, he naturally couldn't pretend that he didn't know some things.

"Okay, I'll send someone there right away." Lao Fang jumped out of the carriage and turned around and said, "Uncle, let me remind you, when you go back today, don't laugh like you did just now..."

"What kind?"

"Like when you walk out of Yangliu Alley."

Li Yi raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why?"

"Because..." Lao Fang opened his mouth, then shook his head and said, "Anyway, I just remember what I said..."

"It's inexplicable." Li Yi glanced at him and said to the sloppy old man: "Go to the teahouse closest to Zeng Mansion."

In the teahouse, Zeng Shichun seemed to be in better spirits than before, and most of the alcohol odor dissipated from his body. Before he could sit down, he hurriedly asked: "Is there anything else important?"

Li Yi poured a cup of tea and asked, "I want to know, regarding Zui Mo's father, what kind of case was he involved in back then?"

Zeng Shichun paused, then retracted his hand that reached for the teacup, and whispered: "They framed him for embezzling food and wages, which delayed the opportunity to fight, which was an important reason for the defeat of a certain war with Qi..."

Li Yi frowned and asked, "With your ability, you haven't been able to find anything for so many years?"

Zeng Shichun shook his head, "There are many people who know that my eldest brother was framed, but no one really stands up and is willing to vindicate him. Even if he is found out, so what, the only people who can be found out about this case are the household members at that time. Minister, it would be harmful rather than helpful to investigate further. Besides, after such a long time, there is no way to investigate..."

Li Yi thought for a while, looked at him and asked, "Where was the Minister of Household Affairs at that time?"

"Later, because of corruption, his whole family was exiled."

"Since it is an exile, there are traces to follow..."

Zeng Shichun shook his head and said, "I can't follow it anymore..."

Having said that, there was no need to say any more. Li Yi glanced at Zeng Shichun, shook his head slightly, and said: "The investigation still needs to be carried out. There is no truth that cannot be found. Otherwise, you would not have told that story today. Talking a lot."

Zeng Shichun remained silent for a moment, then raised his head, looked at Li Yi and said, "I'll leave it to you."

"I can't say please, even if you don't ask me, I will definitely do it." Li Yi shook his head and said: "You must have more information about this matter than me. I will invite Liu Shilang of the Ministry of Justice to have a casual meal someday. You have to rely on him for this matter..., and also, about the Zeng family's house..."

Zeng Shichun waved his hand and said: "If you want that house, I'll give it to you. The Zeng family is no longer the original Zeng family. There is no point in keeping that house. In comparison, Zui Mo needs it more."

Li Yi looked at him and said: "There are still a few months until Zui Mo's birthday. I want to give her the Zeng family's old house as a gift. What was the Zeng family like thirteen years ago? Mr. Zeng will never forget it, right?"

"Of course I will never forget it. Every flower, every grass, every tree, every stone in the Zeng family is..." He glanced at Li Yi, nodded slightly, and said, "You are thoughtful."

"When the time comes, we will have to trouble Mr. Zeng." Li Yi stood up and said: "Her Royal Highness the Princess values ​​Mr. Zeng very much. Mr. Zeng should stay close to virtuous ministers and stay away from treacherous ministers. He will definitely be very promising in the future..."

Zeng Shichun naturally knew what this sentence meant, and said with a calm expression: "Please tell Her Majesty the Princess that Zeng will live up to her high expectations... In addition, I would like to thank Marquis Li for the transfer to Jingzhaoyin this time. ”

"This is what Her Royal Highness the Princess means and has nothing to do with me." Li Yi waved his hand and walked towards the door.

Watching him walk out and disappear, Zeng Shichun murmured in a voice that only he could hear: "Isn't what you mean the princess?"

Li Yi's figure appeared at the door of the room again, glanced at Zeng Shichun, and said lightly: "Master Zeng, you will soon be Jing Zhaoyin, be careful with your words, be careful with your words..."

There is no need to worry about the Zeng family for the time being. Not to mention others, Zeng Shichun still has some conscience. Although Zui Mo can't see anything on the surface, he is her second uncle after all, and she still has some sustenance in her heart.

Speaking of which, after returning from the Zeng family, she seemed to be able to relax more.

This was a good sign. Thinking of the kiss during the day, Li Yi couldn't help but smile.

"What are you thinking about, so happy?"

Miss Liu Er crossed her arms and looked at him and asked.

When Li Yi was thinking about why he was so happy that Miss Liu Er could be satisfied, she suddenly took a step forward and reached out towards his chest.

"What are you doing?" Li Yi asked warily.

She had already retracted her hand, holding a piece of long black hair between her fingers, looking at him and asking, "Whose hair is it?"

"like……"

Li Yi suddenly thought that at the invitation of the Crown Princess, Ruyi went out early this morning, and Xiaohuan naturally followed. The tsundere loli's hair is not that long, and Yongning is not even that------I can't say it is Lao Fang. Right?

And this matter is not suitable for Miss Liu Er to know yet.

"I don't know..." Li Yi looked at her with surprise on his face and said, "How about you take a guess?"
