When the villagers heard this, their faces showed a look of joy and thanked them repeatedly.
Wang Xiaoer looked at Xi Yu with admiration and said, "My lord is indeed wise and powerful. If you have an adult who decides for us, we will feel at ease."
Afterwards, Xi Yu asked the villagers to go back first, but he took Tuoba Yu and Wang Xiaoer to go directly to find the official position and question the bridge repair in person.
The three of them walked towards Li Zheng's home. Along the way, Xi Yu's pace was firm and powerful, and he had already made plans in his heart.
Xi Yu came to the door of Lizheng's house and raised his hand to knock on the door, but he didn't hear a response for a long time.
After asking the neighbors next to me, I found out that I was not at home.
Xi Yu frowned, thought for a while, then turned to Wang Xiaoer and said, "Since that's the case, let's go to your house."
Wang Xiaoer nodded and agreed.
As soon as he entered the house, Xi Yu couldn't help but look at it, and then he realized that Wang Xiaoer's family was really penniless and had a bare wall.
Wang Xiaoer's mother heard the movement and walked out of the inner room. Although she was old, she had a warm smile on her face. When she saw them coming, she hurriedly said, "Oh, the guest is here, welcome, welcome, sit down quickly." As she said that, she staggered to pour water for them.
Xi Yu hurriedly walked up to support Wang Xiaoer's mother and said in a harmonious voice: "Auntie, stop busy, we are not thirsty."
Wang Xiaoer's mother smiled and waved her hand and said, "I'm happy if you can come."
Xi Yu looked at the kind and enthusiastic old man and couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart.
Wang Xiaoer looked at his mother Wang and said seriously: "Mom, they are high-ranking officials and have the power to deal with the matters in the right place."
When Wang heard this, his face suddenly showed a look of shock, his eyes widened, full of incredibleness, his mouth slightly opened, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. She said in a trembling voice.
"What? Waiter, how can you get involved with them and deal with this matter! This is not something we can interfere at will!"
As he said that, a deep look of worry and blame appeared on Wang's face.
She reached out and gently tapped Wang Xiaoer's forehead.
"You, you, why are you so confused? We can't control such things. What if we cause any trouble!"
Wang Xiaoer frowned and hurriedly explained: "Mom, it's okay, they are all fair people. We just help them, and there will be no problem."
But Wang was still full of worry and kept muttering. For a moment, the room was filled with a tense atmosphere.
Xi Yu looked at the nervous and worried look of the old man Wang, and quickly comforted him in a harmonious voice: "Old man, don't be afraid, really don't worry about anything."
But Wang sighed helplessly. She frowned and looked at Xi Yu with confusion, then asked, "What kind of official are you?"
After hearing this, Xi Yu raised his lips slightly and smiled, but did not speak again, but his eyes revealed an unpredictable meaning.
The smile seemed to contain some mystery and profound meaning, which made Wang even more confused.
Wang Xiaoer next to him looked serious, as if he was thinking about how to deal with it next.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room became a little subtle.
Wang came to his senses and said enthusiastically: "Oh, I'm just talking, come on, drink water."
As he said that, he poured water quickly and handed it to Xi Yu, with a kind smile on his face.
Then, Wang patted the dust on his body and said, "You guys talk first, I'll go outside to feed the sheep." After that, he turned around and hurriedly left the house.
After Wang left, a look of guilt appeared on Wang Xiaoer's face.
He lowered his head and said in a slightly low voice: "The reason I steal is actually to let my mother live a better life."
Xi Yu looked at Wang Xiaoer with a serious expression, frowned slightly, and said seriously: "Wang Xiaoer, I know you are filial, but your approach is absolutely undesirable. This is a violation of the law and morality. You must not do this again in the future."
Xi Yu's eyes revealed firmness and majesty.
Wang Xiaoer raised his head, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes, he nodded heavily, bit his lip and said, "I know I'm wrong, I will never do such a thing again in the future." His face was full of sincerity and determination.
Then, Wang Xiaoer raised his head and looked at Xi Yu, with a hint of confusion and uncertainty in his eyes, and asked softly: "Are you really a high-ranking official?"
His brows frowned slightly, as if he was trying to think about something, and then continued, "My previous belief may be just my guess, or it may be wrong."
After saying that, Wang Xiaoer bit his lip, and a determined look appeared on his face. He stared at Xi Yu tightly and said firmly: "But no matter what, you must pretend to be a high-ranking official now, and you must scare that Li Zheng!"
A hint of eagerness and expectation flashed in his eyes, as if he had placed all hope on Xi Yu.
After hearing this, Xi Yu was slightly stunned, then looked at Wang Xiaoer thoughtfully without answering immediately.
Wang Xiaoer looked at Xi Yu, his eyes were bright, and he had a flattering smile on his face. He said with a smile: "Hey, you really look like a high-ranking official like this."
After saying that, he couldn't help but nod, as if he was very sure of his judgment.
At this time, when Tuoba Yu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing out loud.
She smiled so hard that she leaned back and forth.
Her eyes were crescent-shaped, her face was full of teasing, and when she smiled, she also had two shallow dimples on her cheeks.
Xi Yu looked at them helplessly, his lips twitched slightly, and said unhappily: "Okay, okay, don't joke with me."
But there was also a hint of undetectable smile in his eyes.
After a while, Wang hurried into the house after feeding the sheep, with a little apology on his face, and said as he entered the door: "Oh, there is really nothing at home to serve the two guests."
Her face was full of guilt and her hands were squeezing in front of her.
Xi Yu quickly stood up, waved his hand with a smile, and said gently: "Auntie, don't say that, we don't mind, we just sit and leave."
His face was filled with reassuring smiles and his eyes were full of sincerity.
Wang looked at Xi Yu, a hint of emotion flashed in his eyes, and he nodded repeatedly and said, "Then you sit for a while."
After saying that, he stood aside in a little cramped manner, still feeling a little embarrassed.
On the other side, there is a woman's house.
Li was in her forties and had a slightly fat body.
He was wearing a dark brown robe with some traces of wear on the hem of his clothes. He was tied with a black belt around his waist and an ancient jade pendant was inlaid on it.
The hair was tied neatly on the top of the head, fixed with a wooden hairpin, and several strands of hair fell to the ears.
Li was leaning lazily against the head of the bed, with a hint of satisfaction on her face.
He looked at the woman beside him and said with a smile: "Baby, you are so beautiful that I can't stop."
The woman's long silky hair was scattered on the white pillowcase. Her skin was as delicate and smooth as mutton fat and white jade. Her delicate facial features looked even more charming and attractive at this time.
She turned her face slightly, with a shy smile on her lips, and said angrily: "You are just sweet."
There was a confusing light in her eyes, as if she was still immersed in the joy just now.
Li was stretching out his hand and gently stroked the woman's face, his eyes full of greed.
"Hehe, what I said is the truth. You really made me lose my soul."
The woman nudged him, "Okay, stop talking nonsense."
As she said that, she stretched lazily, and her graceful figure made Li Zheng's eyes lit up again.
The woman leaned lazily against the head of the bed, frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in her expression, and said softly: "My husband is coming home from another place. We can't mess around like this in the past few days."
A hint of uneasiness appeared in her eyes, and she gently pulled the quilt with one hand.
When Li Zheng heard this, his eyes widened, and a harsh look flashed across his face. He gritted his teeth and said, "Hmph, why not just kill your husband, so that we can be together all the time in the future."
There was a vicious look in his eyes.
"No! This is impossible. If someone dies, it will not end!" A fine bead of sweat appeared on the woman's forehead, and her hands kept waving, with an extremely nervous expression.
"Hmph, what a timid woman." Li Zheng curled his lips slightly with a hint of disapproval and disgust on his face.
Then he shook his head as if he had remembered something.
"But I really should leave." As he said this, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes, he sighed softly, then raised his legs and walked towards the street.
He walked on the street with a swagger, and suddenly a second-rate man hurried over with a flattering smile on his face.
The second-rate boy's eyes rolled around and he said with a smile: "Oh, Lord Li Zheng, I have been looking for you for a long time!"
Li stopped, frowned, looked at him impatiently, and sternly said, "What are you looking for me?"
The second-rate man hurriedly approached Li Zheng and said mysteriously: "Master Li Zheng, I have something to tell you..." His expression exuded a sense of cunning.
Li was frowning and looking at the second-rate man in front of him, with disgust on his face and said impatiently: "Speak quickly if you have something to do, and let go if you have farts! Don't waste my time!"
The second-rate man quickly smiled and said flatteringly: "Master Lizheng, Wang Xiaoer brought two people today, one man and one woman. He looked like two high-ranking officials, saying that he wanted to investigate you! Many villagers also said that you embezzled money when you built the bridge."
When Li Zheng heard this, his face turned red with anger, his eyes widened, his forehead was filled with blue veins, and he cursed: "Fuck! A group of ignorant troublemakers! Whoever dares to go against me will have to pay the price!"
The second-rate boy quickly agreed, "That's right, Lord Li Zheng, don't be angry. I just said, how could Wang Xiaoer know the high-ranking official? I probably found two people to pretend. I will report to you, but because I am very loyal to Lord Li Zheng, you!"
He looked flattering and his eyes were flashing with a sly light.
He was gloomy and after hearing Erliuzi say it, he slowly patted Erliuzi on the shoulder, a stiff smile came out of the corner of his mouth, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and said, "Well, as long as you are loyal to me, the benefits are naturally indispensable. But this Wang Xiaoer deserves to die, and I will never let him go." When he said this, he gritted his teeth and his cheeks bulged.
Then, Li Zheng frowned again, with doubt in his eyes, staring at the second-rate boy and asked, "Are you sure those two people are really not high-ranking officials?"
The second-rate boy nodded and bowed quickly, and replied with a confident look: "It must be not a high-ranking official, Master Li Zheng. Judging from their appearance, they look like an ordinary couple."
After hearing this, Li nodded slightly, thinking about something.
Then, his face became extremely ugly again. He bit his lip and walked forward angrily, muttering: "Hmph, Wang Xiaoer, wait for me..."
His steps were heavy and powerful, as if they were filled with endless anger.
In that slightly simple house, Xi Yu and Tuoba Yu picked up the thick porcelain bowl and drank a few big mouthfuls of water.
After drinking the water, Xi Yu gently put down the bowl, glanced around, and then said calmly: "It's time for us to leave."
When Wang heard this, a look of embarrassment suddenly appeared on her face. She rubbed her hands and said with guilt: "Oh, I'm so sorry for you. There's really nothing to treat at home." Her face was filled with embarrassment and uneasiness.
Xi Yu smiled slightly, with a little warmth and comfort in his smile, and said softly: "Don't keep it in my heart, we're already disturbing you."
His eyes were clear and sincere, making people feel warm.
Tuoba Yu also nodded from the side and responded, "Yes, don't care."
Then, Xi Yu stepped forward and walked firmly outside the door. Tuoba Yu followed closely behind, and his figure gradually disappeared into the sunshine outside the door.
Just as Xi Yu and Tuoba Yu walked a few steps, Wang Xiaoer hurriedly chased after him from behind.
He ran and shouted, "Wait for me, wait for me!" When he got closer, he gasped and said, "Let's go to Lizheng's house to see the situation."
When Wang heard this, he immediately looked anxious and hurriedly stepped forward to pull Wang Xiaoer, frowned, and his eyes were full of worry and advised: "Waiter, you should stop meddling in other people's business! Think about it, what should I do if I am retaliated by others in the future!"
She ran over and held Wang Xiaoer's arm tightly with both hands, with a nervous and anxious expression.
Wang Xiaoer stubbornly said, "No, I can't just look at me doing evil!" His eyes revealed firmness and dissatisfaction.
Wang shook his head helplessly and sighed, "Why are you so stubborn?" His eyes were full of helplessness and worry.
Xi Yu turned around and looked at Wang with a firm look.
He raised his chin slightly and said solemnly: "Don't worry, this time we will definitely let Li Zhi receive the punishment we deserve, you don't have to worry about it."
His eyes were shining with a light of justice, and his expression was serious and firm.
After hearing this, Wang's eyes still had a hint of doubt and worry, but looking at Xi Yu's sure-fire look, he couldn't help but ask softly: "Is it really possible? Li Zheng he..."
"Auntie, believe me. Since we interfere in this matter, we will definitely do it to the end. Li Zheng's actions will not continue to be free."
His eyes were extremely firm, as if he was fully confident.
Tuoba Yu took a step forward and grabbed Wang's hand tightly. His face was full of sincerity and determination. He looked at her with a bright look and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, we can do it!" His eyes were filled with confidence, and his expression was serious and serious.
Wang looked at Tuoba Yu, then looked at Xi Yu next to him, and couldn't help but sigh, with a hint of helplessness and emotion in his eyes, and said slowly: "Oh, it seems that you are really high-ranking officials. My son, I have to worry about this little business, and I can't control it either. Let him go."
She shook her head, with concern for her son and a hint of expectation on her face.
The frown brows and slightly dull eyes revealed the complicated emotions inside her.
Xi Yu and Tuoba Yu quickly walked to the door of Lizheng's house.
Xi Yu frowned and looked into the house, turned to Tuoba Yu and said, "I'm not at home here."
There was a hint of thought on his face, and a little anxiousness appeared in his eyes.
Tuoba Yu looked around, then his eyes fell on the big tree not far away, and said, "Then let's wait here."
Xi Yu nodded and replied, "That's all." After that, the two walked towards the big tree.
When he came to the big tree, Xi Yu looked at the stone and sat up. His body leaned back slightly and leaned against the big tree trunk. His face showed some fatigue, but his eyes were still firm.
Tuoba Yu also sat down on the stone next to him.
His expression was a little solemn, as if he was thinking about what might happen next.
"Just wait here and see when I'm back."
Xi Yu said softly, staring straight ahead.
Tuoba Yu said "um" and sat there quietly, waiting with Xi Yu.
In a clearing in the village, a group of villagers were gathering together, talking and talking.
"I think the two people Wang Xiaoer brought, I think they are not high-ranking officials at all." An old man with gray hair frowned and said suspiciously. He shook his head while saying that, his face full of distrust.
"That's right, you shouldn't put your hope on them." A thin man next to him echoed, and he curled his lips, revealing disdain in his eyes, "If he was really a high-ranking official, how could Wang Xiaoer know him?"
"Oh!" Hearing this, the others were panicked. A fat woman widened her eyes and looked anxious.
"What should we do? If they can't solve the problem of Li Zheng, then we will be happy in vain!" Her hands were tightly tucked together, and sweat broke out on her forehead.
"Yes, yes, what should I do?" Everyone else also looked worried and began to feel restless.
