Chapter 312 Set up a trap

Chapter 314 Setting up a trap

Pingkangfang, Youxiang Mansion.

The concierge opened the door, took a look, and quickly said with a smile: "Xue Lang is here, please come quickly."

"Don't you go to communicate first?"

"Xue Lang is here, how can we let Xue Lang wait? Please come this way."

Xue Bai looked around and saw that the officials holding documents and waiting for the right minister's approval were still queuing up in the vestibule. The number of people was a little thinner than usual, but it could still be described as a bustling crowd.

He didn't have to queue up and walked in all the way. After a while, he saw Cang Bi stumbling up and saluted respectfully. He wished he could bend his waist to the ground and said with a smile: "I have met Xue Lang. Congratulations to Xue Lang on his wedding."

"Manager Cang is too polite."

"You're welcome, you're welcome, Xue Langlai seems to be from the prime minister's house..."

Cang Bi originally wanted to say that Xue Bai was like the son-in-law of the Prime Minister, but people had been talking privately about how A Lang regretted not recruiting Xue Bai as his son-in-law, so he had to change his mind immediately.

"Xue Lang is an honored guest of the Prime Minister's Mansion."

"pleasure."

Xue Bai originally thought that after going through so much, Li Linfu would replace Cang Bi as the manager and straighten out the family's internal affairs, but when he thought about it, maybe Li Linfu was powerless in this matter.

A single move can affect the whole body... just like Li Longji has been struggling for a long time and has not replaced Li Linfu. What is the reason for not thinking carefully?

No matter how many reasons there are, in the final analysis there is still no point in giving in.

Continuing to walk in, Li Xiu hurriedly greeted him in front of him, his face full of kindness, but he could not hide a hint of embarrassment.

"Mr.

"That's good, I haven't talked to Juro for a long time."

Seeing that Li Linfu did not see him immediately, Xue Bai couldn't help but wonder whether Li Linfu was really seriously ill.

He silently observed the situation in the Li Mansion, chatted casually with Li Xiu, and occasionally made a probing sentence.

After entering the flower hall and sitting down, they chatted for a while. There were figures behind the screen, and a woman came over. Xue Bai turned his head and glanced, thinking of Li Tengkong again. However, when the woman entered, it was not Li Tengkong, she was younger.

, look somewhat similar.

"This is my little sister. She has always admired Xue Lang, so she came here to meet her..."

Li Xiu introduced him quickly, with a slightly reserved tone.

Xue Bai guessed that perhaps the Right Prime Minister's Mansion felt that his help in speaking kindly in front of the emperor this time was due to his friendship with Li Tengkong, so he wanted to have a double friendship. In doing so, he underestimated Xue Bai and even underestimated Li Tengkong.

.

But whose idea was it?

Xue Bai looked at Li Xiu and guessed that this idea was not Li Linfu's. If so, Li Linfu would be seriously ill.

Waving his hands and declining the tea handed over by the young daughter of the Li family, Xue Bai talked about business and said: "I met Zhang Bian yesterday, and he told me that your prime minister is seriously ill, so I came here today to send my greetings."

"What?"

Li Xiu was taken aback and quickly asked his younger sister to leave. He also ordered Cang Bi to guard outside the door. Then he said, "Xue Lang is serious?"

Xue Bai was too lazy to answer.

"Thank you for reminding me." Li Xiu looked ugly and said, "This matter only..."

"Cough cough cough."

There was a faint sound of coughing, and Cang Bi said outside the door: "Alang."

Then, Li Linfu pushed the door open, glanced around the hall, and sat down at the main seat with a straight face.

This was the first time he met Xue Bai in the flower hall.

"As you wish, I left Anlu Mountain."

"Not yet." Xue Bai said: "We can only say that we have given up on his Fan Yang and Pinglu Town Jiedushi. Then the right prime minister will really be able to rest easy."

"What if?"

"There is never a shortage of people who want to be prime minister."

"Shuzi dares to threaten me." Li Linfu scolded and said with a stern face: "This matter is not that simple. I can only promise you not to let him get the post of Hedong Jiedushi. The rest will be done after Nanzhao is pacified.

talk."

"The Right Prime Minister thinks that by pacifying Nanzhao, his position will be stable?"

"National affairs are the most important thing."

It was rare that Li Linfu was willing to talk to Xue Baiping, and the conversation became clear and concise.

Xue Bai thought for a moment, nodded, and said: "That's okay."

"Okay, you arrange it so that I can meet Wang Zhongsi."

"If it is inconvenient for your right minister to see him," Xue Bai said, "If you have anything to say, I can convey it to you."

"What do you mean?"

Xue Bai looked boldly at Li Linfu and said, "The right prime minister is seriously ill, isn't he?"

"It's just because I was too drunk at your wedding banquet that such rumors spread." Li Linfu said: "Bring Wang Zhongsi here tomorrow. He has a bad temper, so you'd better be there."

"good."

"Go ahead."

Xue Bai did not leave, and was still looking at Li Linfu. He saw that the right minister had become thinner, and his expression was still as stern as before, but... his face seemed to be powdered.

When Li Linfu saw that Xue Bai wouldn't leave, he simply waved his hand and asked Cang Bi to help him leave.

"The right minister is not curious, who and Zhang Bian leaked the news about your serious illness?" Xue Bai asked.

Cang Bi stopped and did not continue to help.

Li Linfu then said calmly: "Since I'm not sick, how can I leak the news?"

After saying that, he glared at Cang Bi, stood up, and walked out. At the same time, he said: "Juro, go and take all the documents from the Provincial Office to the meeting hall."

"Here."

"Seeing as this guy doesn't want to leave yet, let Eleven Niang entertain him."

After a while, the Li family's father and son and the manager left without waiting for the guests.

Xue Bai still sat there, thinking.

After waiting for a long time, Li Shiyiniang came over.

"Hey, it's really Xue Lang." When she entered the flower hall, she leaned over to look at Xue Bai, revealing the proud white hair under her shawl. She glanced at Xue Bai boldly and said with a smile, "We just got married.

, more manly."

"In the past, you always took the time to talk to me. Why did you change to Eleven Niang today?"

"She is a Taoist who no longer cares about family affairs." Li Shiniang deliberately stared at Xue Bai. Seeing that he did not avoid her gaze, she couldn't help but ask: "Are you willing to talk to me today?"

"What I wish for."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll eat you?"

"Don't Eleven Niang and Yang Qixuan have a deep love for each other?"

"It's funny, look at how many couples in the Tang Dynasty didn't eat secretly because they were deeply in love?"

"That's because Eleven Niang has a high vision, and all she sees are nobles who have nothing to do."

"What should I do? I was born to be a nobleman."

"Yang Qixuan also ate it secretly?"

"He doesn't dare. He has a thief's heart but no courage. I can only steal it because I have a good background and a high status, so he has to rely on me."

Li Shiniang said, feeling slightly proud, she stretched out her hand to pinch Xue Bai's chin and asked, "Have you had sex with Xiao Qi?"

"No, she is completely different from you."

"Then you said, two completely different sisters..."

"By the way, if your husband is a thief or a thief, he will reveal the secrets of the Prime Minister's Palace."

"He doesn't know how. He is my little loyal dog."

Xue Bai said: "The charioteer is wise, so who told Zhang Bian that your grandpa is seriously ill?"

"Hey, my grandpa is not sick."

"You are smarter than Li Xiu. No wonder your grandpa asked you to send me away. Unfortunately, it's too late. Li Xiu just said that only a few of you were around when your grandpa was seriously ill."

"Believe you? Stop making trouble and see if I'm beautiful..."

~~

"Grandpa looked at this and saw Wang Zhongsi's intention. It is obvious that he does not want to be constrained by the imperial court and wants to transfer his old generals from Longxi."

"Don't want to be restricted by the court? Are you looking for reasons for him?" Li Linfu scolded Li Xiu and said: "He just wants to regain control of the three towns, so the saint wants to use him, but he has to be on guard against him."

After that, he murmured: "The sage understands in his heart that Wang Zhongsi is still facing Li Heng. Tomorrow I will only see how much Xue Bai can persuade him because of his life-saving grace."

"But now, we can only use Wang Zhongsi..."

Li Linfu frowned and said, "Bring me the official documents from Xian Yu Zhongtong."

"Grandpa, it's right here."

"Um."

Li Linfu then picked up the document again and muttered something, calculating the money needed to recruit 100,000 troops.

"Grandpa, would you like to take a break?" Li Xiu asked, "You are already busy..."

"We can't rest." Li Linfu waved his hands and said: "Now the whole court is staring at me, I can't show weakness to others."

At times like this, he actually became determined.

The world always scolds him, but for him to reach the position of prime minister, at least his desire for power is extraordinary. Others may have given up under the pain and returned to their hometown after serving as official officials, but he is still gritting his teeth.

persist in.

"Don't worry." Li Linfu patted Li Xiu's shoulder once in a while and said warmly: "I was just furious the past few days. Now that the situation has been stabilized, everything will get better."

"My grandpa has worried too much about the Tang Dynasty."

"The gods told me that I will be the prime minister for twenty years, but these are only a few years." Li Linfu smiled and said, "As long as I am not sick, no one can take away my position."

Li Xiu said: "Yes, that's exactly it."

"Xue Bai came to test me today." Li Linfu said, "By the way, has he arrived?"

"Grandpa?" Li Xiu was stunned and murmured: "You have already met Xue Bai just now."

"But I have never heard that Xue Xiu has such a son."

"What?"

"Ji Wen, go and check. I want to know Xue Bai's life experience."

"Grandpa, what are you doing?" Li Xiu was so anxious that he almost burst into tears and said, "I'm not Ji Wen."

"I want you to find out the truth!"

Li Linfu became furious and cursed: "How can I marry my daughter to him without checking it out?!"

"Yes, yes."

Li Xiu quickly crossed his hands and saluted, and unconsciously adopted Ji Wen's tone and said: "I'll go check it out now."

He already has experience. Don't be disobedient when Li Linfu is ill. Waiting for his anger to subside is the fastest way to recover.

"I am resigning."

After exiting the meeting hall, Cang Bi came up to him in the corridor with a sad face.

"Juro, what is this?"

"Here we go again, I am Ji Wen now, and I am going to find out Xue Bai's life experience."

"Still checking?"

Cang Bi didn't know what to do either.

The next moment, a voice suddenly sounded from behind.

"What do you want to find out, Juro?"

The two of them turned around and couldn't help but widen their eyes. They saw Li Shiniang coming with Xue Bai.

~~

Li Linfu was still angry in the room and walked a few steps, thinking that he must take this opportunity to get rid of Yang Shenjin. As for Xue Bai, if he was really the son of his enemy, he would be useless.

But strangely, there was another voice in his head telling him that he had to recruit Xue Bai as his son-in-law.

Just as I was thinking about it, someone entered the house. It was Ji Wen.

"Why don't you check it out?!"

Ji Wen did not answer, and was busy pulling a handsome young man away from him to enter the house.

Li Linfu took a closer look and found that this young man was none other than his son-in-law.

Which son-in-law? Because he had too many daughters, he thought for a while before recognizing him. It turned out to be Yuan Ming.

"Right Prime Minister, are you okay?"

"Call me 'father-in-law'." Li Linfu frowned and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"The right minister...can't recognize me?"

"I've already said that I'm called 'father-in-law'. It turns out that even though I have many daughters, I can't even recognize my son-in-law."

Yuan Miao laughed dumbly and said: "I came because I heard that there was a thief in the house. My father-in-law asked me to handle the matter, okay?"

"A traitor?"

"Yes, the traitor who leaked information about the prime minister's house."

Li Linfu didn't care about this matter, nodded, looked at Ji Wen, and shouted: "You still won't go?!"

"This...here, I'm going to resign."

Ji Wen had no choice but to retreat.

Yuan Ming was very bold and sat down on the chair, as if he had the final say here.

~~

Yu Zhen Guan.

March is about to pass, and the peach blossoms in the courtyard are about to wither. Looking at them, Li Jilan can't help feeling pity, feeling that the passage of time is a great tragedy in life.

Walking into the law hall, Li Tengkong was already meditating, his face neither happy nor sad.

"Teng Kongzi, I think you are not cultivating the Tao. You are about to become a Buddha."

"My heart is calm, so why ask the Buddha?" Li Tengkong replied calmly without opening his eyes.

Li Jilan then put on a few more futons, sat down next to her, and asked, "Are you going to stop seeing Xue Lang again?"

"He is already married, so what if we meet him?"

"I……"

Li Jilan hesitated to speak. She wanted to say that Mrs. Yan was very easy to get along with. Then she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, and she didn't know what she wanted in this way.

Finally, she said: "But the friendship of friends and ordinary interactions, what's wrong with that?"

"Excuses are for the world to hear." Li Tengkong seemed to have reached a higher level, saying: "I am a person who is born in the world. I only ask my own heart."

"Then in your heart, do you also have a romantic relationship with Xue Lang?"

This time, it was rare that Li Tengkong did not deny it.

She opened her eyes and responded calmly and slowly: "I'm coming out."

Li Jilan couldn't help but admire him.

Jiao Nu came over and said, "Make some time, my family will send someone to invite you back."

"Just answer, I no longer care about the secular affairs at home."

Jiaonu reluctantly accepted the order, and after a while, he led Li Shiniang.

"Seventeen, are you so stubborn?" Li Shiyi's mother just arrived, she complained, then drove the others away, smiled and whispered to Li Tengkong: "Xue Bai is at home.

Go back quickly."

"He is at home, what does it have to do with me?"

"You little girl, why are you always so awkward? If your family mistreats you, just say it if it makes you unhappy. Since you like Xue Bai, go and be happy with him. You can't ask for more in life.

Is it just happiness? Be happy and just reach out for whatever you want. Is there anything my family can’t give you?”

"I just got too much. Sister, you see, all living beings live in poverty. If you ask me what I want, I just ask that my family not be too greedy."

"You really...why don't you understand?" When Li Shiniang heard this, she was extremely anxious and said: "We are born with a lot, and people in the world are born with a low life. Do you understand? If you practice Taoism, what's the use of practicing Taoism?

?You are born with a precious life, but you cannot enjoy it with peace of mind. You have to cultivate it over and over again, and it becomes an affectation!"

After scolding her hard, she didn't bother to reason with Li Tengkong anymore, so she grabbed her and took her back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Sister, let go, I really won't go back."

"I don't care whether you are a Taoist or a Buddha. In the whole world, filial piety is the most important word. Go ahead."

Li Tengkong was stubborn, shook off Li Shiniang's hand and called Jiaonu.

"This is Yuzhen Temple, and I don't allow my sister to be rude."

"you!"

Li Shiyi was so angry that she put on a pleading tone and said: "Okay Shiqi, go back. If you don't go back, who in the family can cure Xue Bai? He also said that he will only talk to you."

Li Tengkong remained silent, lowered his head and said nothing, still looking a little stubborn.

"Alas, I was fooled by him today." Li Shiyiniang said: "If he catches grandpa getting sick, the family can't do anything for him. Just for the sake of my sister, it would be nice for you to take action again.

"

After begging like this, Li Tengkong thought for a while and finally agreed in a low voice.

"Okay, then it depends on sister's face..."

~~

In the Flower Hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Li Xiuzheng's face was solemn and full of embarrassment.

Several of his brothers did not sit down and walked around the hall, shouting and irritating people.

From time to time, people would complain about Li Xiu.

"I think Juro is the traitor and revealed to Xue Bai that grandpa is ill!"

"Yes, now the thief is shouting to catch the thief."

"you……"

Li Xiu was so angry that he could not vent his anger.

Only Xue Bai watched this scene calmly, observing everyone's expressions with interest.

Li Linfu's first six sons were all maids or bastards born outside the family. Their mother's family had no influence and no right to speak. Among the six, only the eldest son Li Huan was present today.

The intention was just to separate the family; the biological mother of the seventh son Li Yu was Li Linfu's first wife, and he was regarded as the legitimate son, so he had a high official position and was appointed Taichang Shaoqing. He had a problem with Xue Bai and wanted to compete with Li Xiu for the family business; Li Xiu and Li Tengkong

His biological mothers were a pair of sisters. Although they are no longer alive, they must have been very popular in the past, so Li Xiu was the most favored by Li Linfu.

He is highly suspected of being in cahoots with Zhang Bian; the twenty-first son, Li Wei, once raped a common girl on the street and was chopped into pieces by thugs. He did not become an official, but managed detailed affairs at home. He knew a lot but was dissatisfied.

, also suspected...

There were also several sons-in-law present. The third son-in-law, Zhang Jibo, was in his late fifties and served as Honglu Shaoqing. He had little contact with Xue Bai, but the Nanzhao rebellion was within his responsibilities. He also had a nephew.

It was Luo Xishi, in other words, Zhang Jibo had suffered several big losses in a row without even fighting against Xue Bai; the eighth son-in-law Zheng Ping, who was a member of the household department, was not of high rank, but had considerable power; the eleventh son-in-law was

Yang Qixuan came from a noble family and was promoted quickly. His wife's strong personality must have dissatisfied him, and he was highly suspicious. His fourteenth son-in-law, Du Wei, was born in the Du family of Jingzhao. His family had a good relationship with the Donggong family, so the suspicion was not small...

These are just a few conspicuous people, but the right prime minister's family has a huge business and a large number of people, which is simply dazzling.

They were arguing and arguing. Suddenly, someone raised his hand and pointed.

"I think it's all Xue Bai's fault!"

Xue Bai withdrew his mind and found that he did not recognize the speaker, and no one introduced him. In short, he probably could not recognize all the young masters of the Prime Minister's Mansion. I wonder if Li Tengkong recognized them all?

"Think about it, everyone, is it not Xue Bai who caused me to be like this now?"

Looking at everyone's gaze, Xue Bai did not refute, and said calmly: "It's the interests of the officialdom that will harm you or not. If I am of no use to the prime minister's house today, I will leave now."

"No way." Li Xiu quickly stood up to stop him. He suppressed his grievance and said with a smile, "Xue Lang, please don't get angry with your younger brother. He is ignorant and talks nonsense."

At least Li Xiu had the foresight to know that Xue Bai had revealed that his grandfather was seriously ill. If he was kicked out, if Xue Bai turned against him, the Youxiang Mansion would really be hopeless.

The flower hall was in chaos and could not speak, so Li Xiu had no choice but to ask Cang Bi to keep an eye on his brothers and take Xue Bai outside to talk.

"Xue Lang, you are an outsider, how can you use my grandfather's joke during his illness to catch a traitor in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

"I don't care." Xue Bai said: "But your grandfather promised to replace An Lushan, and we spoke for him in front of the emperor. But in the blink of an eye, we can't do it anymore? It's just a one-shot deal."

"I can do it, I can do it. How about we talk about it after my grandpa wakes up?"

"Your grandpa is already so old, so what if he wakes up? Do you expect him to get better? This time in front of me, next time in front of a saint?"

"Saints are not always common..."

"All the officials are also missing?"

"Why do Xue Lang have to press so hard? Could it be that Zhang Bian can listen to you more?"

Xue Bai thought that what Li Xiu said inadvertently hit the point. He pondered for a moment and said: "If you are like this and can't stabilize the situation, it's better to ask your grandpa to become an official and separate the family."

"Give You Xiangfu some time, everything will be fine..."

"You and I know that the story of a traitor is not false. It is difficult to rely on your grandpa's health to calm the situation. If you don't show courage, everything will be over."

"How?"

"Find out the traitors, kill the chickens to scare the monkeys, clean up the house, and take over all the affairs of your prime minister's house. To put it simply, you must be able to replace your grandfather at all times."

Li Xiu was taken aback and said: "It can't be done. Besides, my father is still ill. As a son of man, how can I do it without authorization..."

He stopped mid-sentence because he saw a sneer in Xue Bai's eyes.

"Think about it yourself."

Li Xiu felt that his lips were dry and he could not make a decision in his heart. Xue Bai's intention was to let him fight for power with his grandfather, but his grandfather was not tolerant even to his own son.

At this time, there was already a commotion in the flower hall.

"Li Xiu! Are you colluding with outsiders and trying to sell the Prime Minister's Mansion?!"

"Is there anything we can't listen to?!"

Li Yu, Li Wei and a group of disciples of the prime minister's office took the lead, shouting as if they were not afraid of spreading the family scandal. Cang Bi could not suppress them, and they were sweating profusely.

"If I were you, I would order people to capture them all." Xue Bai said, "How can we sweep the world if we don't sweep one house?"

Li Xiu shook his head and went up to try to persuade her, saying: "Please speak softly. Are you afraid that there will be less trouble at home?"

Seeing this scene, Xue Bai smiled, turned around and walked away. Cang Bi saw him and hurriedly caught up to stop him.

"Xue Lang, wait a minute. The eleventh mother has already gone to invite the seventeenth mother. Please wait a moment."

Xue Bai didn't know about this and said, "Why bother her again?"

As soon as he finished speaking, at the other end of the corridor, Li Tengkong had already walked over.

Cang Bi hurriedly stepped forward and whispered: "Seventeenth Mother, please advise Xue Lang. If he encounters A Lang's hysteria, if he goes away..."

Li Tengkong had actually heard Li Shiniang tell him the whole story, so he walked towards Xue Bai and said, "Why is Mr. Xue willing to stay and talk?"

"At least, I have someone who can talk to me."

"good."

Li Tengkong looked at the farce in the flower hall for a while and said, "Jiaonu, go give Twenty-one Lang a mouthful."

Cang Bi was shocked when he heard this, Jiao Nu stepped forward eagerly, grabbed Li Wei's collar, lowered him down, and slapped him with his raised hand.

"Crack!"

This slap was so hard that everyone was shocked.

Li Tengkong then stepped forward, walked to Li Xiu, and said, "Brother, you are too soft-hearted."

"But grandpa..."

"I'm going to check my grandfather's pulse first." Li Tengkong said, "Cang is in charge, you can just follow my brother and watch. No one is allowed to leave until my grandfather wakes up."

After that, she walked towards the main room and when she passed by Xue Bai, she stopped and glanced at him.

"Xue Lang is willing to talk to me now?"

"good."

Xue Bai then whispered a few words to Li Tengkong in a low voice. Li Tengkong nodded and went to check Li Linfu's pulse.

After a while, when she came back, her face was very solemn.

"how?"

Li Xiu and Cang Bi hurriedly stepped forward to inquire about the situation.

"Wind disease is a wind disease and epilepsy. It starts suddenly and is as fierce as the wind. It changes in good deeds and is unpredictable. I can't work hard anymore, otherwise I may have a stroke if I get sick again."

"this……"

Li Xiu didn't expect Li Linfu to be so seriously ill. He was at a loss and asked, "What should I do?"

"Let's become official."

"No!" Li Xiu said anxiously: "Now that Zhang Bian has been appointed as prime minister, and a series of officials from the East Palace have revolted, the right prime minister's office will be over."

Li Tengkong shook his head and said, "I can't work hard anymore."

The brother and sister discussed a few words and looked at Xue Bai.

Li Xiu was still thinking about his words, but Li Tengkong had already told Xue Bai the truth in a low voice.

"A saint rarely sees his right prime minister. All government affairs of the court are in the prime minister's house. There is still time."

"But what?"

Xue Bai thought for a while and said, "How about supporting Chen Xilie?"

Li Xiu was surprised and said: "What?"

"Currently, neither you nor I can worship the prime minister. The person who best controls the center is Chen Xilie, isn't he?" Xue Bai said, "I can go talk to him, and Shiro should also meet him. If possible, during the period before the right prime minister takes office,

, we have to stabilize the situation."

"How can I trust you?"

"Simple, if there is no power from the Right Prime Minister's Office, why should I let Chen Xilie agree with me? Our cooperation is the best situation."

"good."

Xue Bai looked at the flower hall and said: "Also, the thief in the Youxiang Mansion must be found."

"How?"

Xue Bai pondered for a while and whispered to Li Tengkong: "Tell them about different symptoms and ask them to keep it secret. Let's see who leaks the news."

"But, how can there be so many diseases to be mentioned?"

"Let me tell you a few people." Xue Bai said: "Li Yu, Li Wei, Li Wei, Yang Qixuan, Du Wei, the traitor must be among these five people."

"good."

"Be sure to block the news and don't let others say that the prime minister is seriously ill. Let's buy some time."

~~

When Xue Bai returned home that day, he saw Yan Yan and Qing Lan, who didn't know what they were talking about and laughed very happily.

"What's so funny?"

"It's nothing." Yan Yan said, "We went out to bully others, but we didn't tell you."

"Okay, how about going to Fengweilou in Buzhengfang for dinner today?"

"Why? The food cooked in our kitchen is so delicious."

"That's because you haven't gotten tired of it yet. If you eat too much, you'll get tired of it. Now eat less."

"Crooked reasoning."

Yan Yan clearly knew that Xue Bai had other ideas, but she didn't reveal it, but reluctantly agreed to accompany him to Fengweilou in Buzhengfang for dinner. At the end, she and Qing Lan tasted a pot of fruit wine, and they were very drunk.

.

~~

Two days later, March 30th.

This was the tenth day after Xue Bai's wedding, and also the tenth day after Li Linfu fainted in front of everyone. Xue Bai visited You Xiang's Mansion again.

It was Cang Bi and Li Xiu who personally led him to the flower hall to meet him again. After a while, a beautiful figure appeared around the screen and it was Li Tengkong.

"How is your grandpa?"

Li Tengkong didn't answer, just shook his head.

Li Xiu said: "Occasionally I see people, but I barely cover it up."

"There is no way to go on like this. All the official documents of the imperial court are handled by the prime minister's office." Xue Bai asked: "Can Juro handle it?"

Li Xiu was stunned for a moment, with a bad premonition, and finally realized that Xue Bai was so kind to help the Prime Minister's Mansion, and he must have some agenda... Could it be that he wanted to take the opportunity to control the Prime Minister's Mansion?

There were obviously fifty children in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and at this moment he actually felt like he was being devoured.

Li Xiu then responded: "Now I don't need Xue Lang to worry about it."

"Okay." Xue Bai said: "By the way, I found out who the traitor in the Prime Minister's Mansion is. This person has very frequent contact with Zhang Bian."

"I have been sending people to keep an eye on those five people..."

"It's not those five people." Xue Bai said, "It's Cang who is in charge."

Cang Bi was still making tea for them. Hearing this, his movements stagnated and he smiled and said, "Xue Lang is joking?"

"Whether you are joking or not, Manager Cang knows clearly."

Cang Bi looked at Xue Bai, the smile on his face gradually stiffened, and said: "I have been disrespectful to Xue Lang in the past, so I ask Xue Lang not to blame me."

Xue Bai and Li Tengkong looked at each other and nodded tacitly.

They already have evidence.

"Is your grandpa sober now? Talk to him face to face?"

Hearing this, Cang Bi couldn't help but froze, and murmured: "Alang? He...he can't work hard..."
