"The people of Prime Minister Ding and Prime Minister Jia have withdrawn..."
"Have you noticed? There is someone secretly watching from a distance..."
In the small house, several people discussed for a long time.
Finally, Han Chengxu said: "The government wants Xiao Langjun, but we are not wanted. This shows that Xiao Langjun's murder has nothing to do with going north and is a private matter."
"good."
"Someone is secretly watching us and wants to use us to find him."
"Yes, I originally wanted to go out and look for Li Xia, but I was worried that I would harm him instead."
Han Chengxu said: "If Xiaolangjun is unprepared, someone may be able to harm him, but now that he is being searched everywhere, it means that he is fine. And don't worry, with Xiaolangjun's ability, the princes in the north can't even catch him, let alone
…”
"What's more, these people in Lin'an City are at odds with each other." Gao Changshou said.
"Yes, they can't catch the young man. We don't have to mess up the situation. Let's go back to the house first."
After Han Chengxu finished speaking, he and Han Qiaoer helped Han Qian back to the house, and the three of them chatted in low voices.
"Father, looking at this situation, I think the young man will no longer be able to stay in Song Dynasty."
Han Qian is a chronically ill man and speaks in a soft voice.
"It's not surprising. My father made this assumption when I was in Kaifeng. With the strife in the Song Dynasty, it would be difficult for someone who was not a Jinshi to get ahead."
"Yes, it's an eye-opener for me to be able to achieve this level. It's a pity that I have a personal grudge."
Han Chengxu said: "He will come back to us again."
"How can father be so sure?"
"Believe him. My father has entrusted the three generations of old, weak, sick and disabled to him... You should be prepared. When the young man returns, we will follow him north to join Li Fen."
"Listening to the information Qiao'er carried... Li Fen was afraid that it was not enough, but Qiao'er thought it was time to persuade Xiao Langjun to talk to the Zhang family. The more the Zhang family cares about him, the more they know about his talents. Then I can be a lobbyist to see Zhang.
Rou, we still have some old ties in Guide Mansion..."
"let's discuss it later."
"What my father wants to say is that Nie Zhongyu and the other three may not be willing to go."
"That's right. After a while, when the limelight subsides, let's get rid of Nie Zhongyu first."
"Yes, Qiao'er remembers the information. If the young man is okay, he will definitely come to us."
Han Chengxu sighed: "Since you have hope of returning to the Central Plains and settling down, you must take good care of your health."
"My child understands."
Han Qiaoer asked softly: "Grandpa, where is Sister Gao?"
"The southwest is the main direction of the Mongolian army's attack. Without the support of Song Ting, Gao Changshou will not have a future. Let's see if he can wake up."
As Han Chengxu spoke, he walked to the window and looked through the window slit. He saw Gao Changshou and Gao Mingyue seemingly having a bad conversation in the yard. Apparently they had differences of opinion.
Further away, Nie Zhongyou was standing in the hall. His injury had healed a lot and he could stand up and walk, but his face was very sad.
Han Chengxu knew that Nie Zhongyou had been captured even though he had returned from meritorious service, and had fallen into the most embarrassing situation.
Only Li Xia is the backbone of everyone.
"It's okay, just rebel against the Song Dynasty and let the tiger return to the mountains." Han Chengxu murmured in a low voice, "But, where is it..."
~~
"Where is Li Xia?"
"Envoy, we are still searching..."
"A bunch of trash." Quan Yongjian frowned, looking a little annoyed.
He had roughly figured out how Li Xia escaped that night.
It was Yin Yifu, King Rong's confidant, who was threatened by Li Xia and cooperated with Li Xia to escape. Yin Yifu was busy until evening that day and went back to his room to take a nap. Because Jiang Wanli, Li Boyu and others came to visit one after another, he was also awakened to entertain these people.
At that time, the gatekeepers of Prince Rong's Mansion saw with their own eyes that Yin Yifu brought a boy into the house. The boy had a yellow face and thick eyebrows. In Yin Yifu's house, yellow ocher used for painting was found and polished.
After Li Xia entered Prince Rong's palace disguised as a servant, he killed Yin Yifu and a guard in the small corridor.
But when someone discovered the body and the whole government searched for Li Xia, they couldn't find it...
The maid next to Mrs. Huang, the birth mother of Prince Zhong, saw a young boy entering the courtyard and then leaving Prince Rong's Mansion with Mrs. Huang's token.
Mrs. Huang's excuse was that she didn't see anything, but no one could be sure whether Li Xia stole the token or gave it to her.
However, when these things happened, Jiang Wanli and Li Boyu were in Prince Rong's Mansion, as well as Xu Hexing, a protégé of Uncle Xie Fang.
In order to deal with the various forces involved behind these people, everyone in Prince Rong's palace felt physically and mentally exhausted.
Quan Yongjian also lost the enthusiasm he had in running errands in the first place.
Because of this matter, he had already postponed several cultural gatherings. Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, he became increasingly irritated by this matter.
He knew that in terms of hunting and killing, he was definitely not as good as the Northerners. Even the Northerners couldn't catch Li Xia. Lin'an City had such a large population, it was even harder to catch him.
In Quan Yongjian's private mind, Li Xia was wanted anyway, and it was possible that he had defected. The loyal king and his group could suppress Wu Qian and his followers, so it didn't matter if they didn't arrest him.
"By the way, have you checked Fenglianlou?"
"I checked twice and it was said that Tang Anan had broken off their friendship with Li Xia early. Many people heard the quarrel at that time and said that Li Xia used her savings to go to prostitutes. He is really shameless... What the villain doesn't understand is
, why can’t Tang Anan be taken down for interrogation?”
Quan Yongjian chuckled.
"Do you think I'm a fool like Sun Tianji? You don't even know whose territory you belong to yet you dare to bully me..."
~~
Wind Curtain Tower.
This is one of the best areas by the West Lake, a quiet place amidst the hustle and bustle.
There are pavilions and pavilions, flowers and trees scattered here and there, and the sound of a piano can be heard faintly in the distance.
In a small room, Nian'er took a bottle of ointment and smelled it to make sure that he had got it right. Then he knelt down and said softly: "You...you take off your clothes..."
She bit her lip and saw that Li Xia's back was facing her and didn't look back. She just looked over with confidence and boldness. She felt that the outline of his waist was so beautiful.
I blinked my eyes for a moment, but Nian'er refused to blink again and applied the medicine carefully.
After that, he tilted his head slightly, and when Li Xia wasn't paying attention, he glanced in front of him.
Although she could only see a little bit, she covered her face and hurriedly calmed down before Li Xia turned around, not letting him see her various little moves.
"Ahem, it's on the leg." Nian'er said.
"I'll do it myself." Li Xia put on her clothes and reached out to take the ointment in her hand.
But he didn't take off his pants, he put his hand in and quickly wiped it off.
Nian'er was a little disappointed and puffed up his cheeks.
After applying the medicine, the two sat side by side.
Nian'er said: "Girl has to practice the piano today, and I don't want to be disturbed. I can sit there for a while, otherwise it will be too boring for you to stay here by yourself."
Li Xia said: "I'm not bored. I can hide outside the girl named Niannian's room and listen to their conversation."
"Humph, what's the point of listening to those little prodigal hoofs chatting?"
"You can know many things, such as whether Mother Hu really entered the palace before?"
"I don't know, maybe. I heard that officials like to invite all kinds of women into the palace, including female Taoists and prostitutes, but I don't know if there is Mother Hu."
"So you know this too?"
"Of course I've heard of it too. Even though I'm a slave, I still want to chat. After I finish my work, we all get together to talk."
Li Xia said: "Did you also go to the Gushan Cultural Festival?"
"Hmm, a lot of people were mentioning your name that day, and I was shocked. My girl even sang the lyrics you wrote..."
Nian'er chattered a lot again.
Li Xia said: "The literati said they wanted to rescue Taichang Sheng?"
"I don't know. I was only in the back getting things for the girl, but I didn't hear any of this."
"Miss Niannian heard it." Li Xia said casually.
Nian'er suddenly became angry.
"Why do you always talk about her, always talk about her...you are not allowed to go whoring in our Fenglian Building!"
"I'll go see Mother Hu later."
"Mother Hu, you can't... No, Mother Hu won't see you. She's busy. She has to settle the accounts for her employer today. I had a lot of people move the account books to her building before this morning."
"I know, so I went to see her." Li Xia said, "My boss sent the chief of the pavilion here again..."
As he spoke, he turned around and looked through the window. He could see a string of wind chimes hanging under the eaves.
Eaves horse jingle, eaves horse jingle.
Li Xia murmured: "The country is about to perish..."
