Chapter 366 Suzaku returns to Beijing

When Li Ye returned to his house in the afternoon, he was surprised to see that the open space in the inner courtyard was filled with beds. There were as many as thirty or forty beds, and more than a dozen maids and women were busy cleaning them. Pei Sanniang was walking back and forth like a supervisor, constantly

Look inside the bed.

Li Ye was speechless. Needless to say, his mother must have found out about the golden beans that morning.

At this time, when Pei Sanniang saw her son coming back, she hurriedly ran forward and pulled him aside. She smiled and whispered: "Do you know how much you can gain?"

Li Ye was startled, did he really find the money?

"How many were found?"

"This number!" Pei Sanniang stretched out two fingers mysteriously.

"Two thousand dollars?"

"Almost! Two thousand Sogdian gold coins."

'hiss--'

Li Ye took a breath of air. The three kilograms of gold beans he found only amounted to fifty taels of gold, but his mother actually found two thousand gold coins.

Li Ye suddenly thought of something and asked quickly: "Where did you find it?"

Pei Sanniang said with a proud face: "Put it in a cloth bag on the couch in your study.

Li Ye couldn't laugh or cry immediately. It was his own money, and his mother actually regarded it as a hidden treasure.

"Mom, I put those gold coins there."

"Ah!" Pei Sanniang opened her mouth wide and scratched her head in embarrassment, "You kid, why are you hiding gold coins in the couch?"

"I didn't hide it, I just put it inside. Mom, that's my study and my couch. Don't I always put money like this?"

"It seems so!"

Pei Sanniang finally realized her absurdity and suddenly became listless, "Hey! I'm so happy for nothing."

"Mom, just take the two thousand gold coins!"

Pei Sanniang shook her head, "I don't want it. You have a lot of entertainment and spend a lot of money now. I'm not short of money now. Your father just gave me the money to buy a house in Changlefang, and the tens of thousands of dollars you gave me are enough.

Got it!"

"Then did you find anything here?" Li Ye touched the couches in the courtyard with his mouth.

Pei Sanniang shook her head, "I didn't find anything, so I simply asked them to clean the bed. They didn't know anything, and I didn't tell them.

By the way, I got back the golden beans you gave Xiaohong, don’t change your face, I’ll give her twenty guan of money as compensation. You can’t give things like golden beans to the little maid, her family will get into trouble if they leak out."

Li Ye thought it was right, and my mother had thought it through carefully. He said to his mother: "You give my five hundred gold coins to my mother and exchange them for the golden beans. Keep the golden beans."

Pei Sanniang nodded, "I understand, I'll tell my aunt later."

Li Ye returned to his yard, walked into the study and sat down. The study had been restored to its original state, and it didn't look like it had been rummaged through.

At this time, Xiaohong brought a cup of hot tea. She hesitated and said: "Madam came to ask me about the golden beans. I didn't dare to hide it, so I told her. Madam gave me another twenty coins and gave me my gold beans."

The beans have been exchanged."

Li Ye nodded, "Madam is right, those golden beans may bring disaster to your family. If your parents get them, they will be targeted by thieves."

"Ah!" Xiao Hong patted her chest fearfully. She was planning to give it to her parents during the Chinese New Year, but luckily her wife took it away.

"You didn't keep one or two in private?" Li Ye looked at her with a half-smile.

Xiaohong shook her head quickly, "I don't dare to stay privately. If Madam finds out, she will be driven home."

Li Ye now knows that Xiaohong is not a servant of the family, but a maid who signed a contract to go home and get married when she is sixteen or seventeen years old.

"Go for it!"

Xiaohong bowed and retreated.

Li Ye took a sip of hot tea and looked at the house again, "Is there something hidden on the beams?"

Li Ye then shook his head. He had really thought too much that morning. He thought that this place had once been Shangguan Wan'er's villa, and there must be wealth hidden there!

Now that I think about it, it’s really confusing. Shangguan Wan’er lives in Luoyang. Even if she has another residence in Luoyang, how could she be in Chang’an?

His bed was Shangguan Wan'er's sleeping bed in the palace. After Shangguan Wan'er was killed in the coup, all her furniture and belongings were stored and later moved to Chang'an with the capital.

Grandfather was gifted this house, and the emperor probably also gifted a batch of furniture, which happened to contain this couch.

Moreover, the golden beans were hidden so secretly that Li Xiu did not find them. Li Ye believed that Li Xiu searched carefully before moving away, but still did not find the golden beans.

However, these furniture are all made of Venus rosewood, which is extremely precious wood. Li Xiu actually left it to his father.

The reason is of course that Li Xiu did this favor because he wanted to save his son, otherwise he would definitely move these expensive furniture away.

Of course, not all the furniture is made of Venus rosewood, only the back house and the main living room are, and the rest of the servant rooms and guest rooms are ordinary furniture.

At this time, Li Ye suddenly saw the female Taoist priest Qing Yu hurried in from outside, most likely to come to play with Xiao Hong. However, Li Ye noticed that she always looked towards his study room, so Li Ye walked over and said with a smile: "Xiao Hong

Fairy aunt is looking for me?"

Qingyu immediately turned around and said to the sky: "My master asks you to come over!"

After saying that, she left without looking back. Li Ye looked amused. This little fairy girl had the same temper as her father Li Bai, stinky and tough. He beat her once and lied to her once, and she completely held her grudge.

Li Ye came to the east courtyard in front and saw Li Tengkong and his disciples packing things.

"Auntie, are you leaving now?"

Li Tengkong stepped forward and said, "I went to see my father yesterday."

"How about it?"

Li Tengkong's eyes turned red, "Father cried, and so did I."

"Then what?"

"There is no more. He asked me to do more good deeds and atone for his sins. I told him that I had been atoneing for his sins. Then I stayed with him for a long time and then left."

Li Tengkong felt very calm inside, but she was full of gratitude to Li Ye. If he hadn't persuaded her, hey

"Thank you for persuading me to go and see my father, otherwise I would still be stuck in this knot."

"You are my aunt, and of course I don't want you both to regret it for the rest of your life."

Li Tengkong nodded and said with a smile: "Master and Suzaku are back."

"Ah! So fast."

"I'm not sure. Maybe they didn't go to Qingcheng and went to see Suzaku! She left in anger. Just coax her."

"Aunt——"

Li Ye's face grew hot, and he quickly changed the subject, "Is Agu going to move now?"

"Master is back, so I have to take care of him. We will move tomorrow."

"Then I'll leave first!"

Li Ye turned around and left. Li Tengkong chased him a few steps and shouted, "Go now, don't wait until tomorrow!"

Really unable to wait for the next day, Li Ye immediately hired a carriage and went to the Taiqing Palace on the bank of Qujiang Pool.

He asked a Taoist nun to inform him, and after waiting for a while, Suzaku Shanshan came late.

"Senior sister!" Li Ye smiled and waved.

"How did you know I was back?" A smile appeared on Suzaku's face.

"Sister-in-law said that when you come back, I will come over quickly."

"Let's go in!"

Suzaku felt a little nervous, but also a little sweet. The junior brother came specifically to see her, so she took Li Ye and walked into the temple.

"Senior sister, are you going to Qingcheng Mountain?" Li Ye asked with a smile.

"I didn't go! Master changed his plan and went to Hanzhong Huayuan Palace."

"I'm telling you, it's only been more than a month since I came back so soon!"

"Yes, if I go to Qingcheng Mountain, I will definitely not be able to come back until next year."

Suzaku pursed his lips and smiled, "When will junior brother leave?"

"On the 17th of the first lunar month, the team was very large, with 12,000 troops, as well as a large number of businessmen and envoys from various countries. Senior sister, do you want to go with us?"

"I?"

Suzaku stopped, looked at Li Ye and asked, "Are you just talking casually, or are you inviting me formally?"

"Of course it's a formal invitation."

Zhuque's pretty face turned red, and he hesitated and said, "Let me think about it! I have a lot of things to do, and I can't let go of Master. I also have to convince my father that if I can go, I will definitely go."

"I'm just worried that your father won't let you go."

"Father won't stop it. There's actually a good excuse here."

"What excuse?" Li Ye asked with a smile.

"My second uncle will also serve as the governor of Beiting Jiedu Prefecture."

Li Ye was startled, "Who is your second uncle?"

"My second uncle Dugujun was the judge of the Jiedu Prefecture in Anxi a few years ago. Later he returned to the imperial court and served as the Sima of the Right Guard General. Last month, the emperor officially appointed him as the chief historian of the Jiedu Prefecture in Beiting. My cousin also

If you want to go, maybe I will accompany her."

Li Ye smiled and said: "Okay! It's not far from Beiting to Suiye. You just need to go to Yili Valley. I will pick you up there!"
