"Zhao Song, do you know where Li Yu came from?"
After the morning court session, Li Er came to the Sweet Dew Hall. Recalling the scene from the morning court session, his gaze darkened. He suddenly looked at Zhao Song and asked.
Zhao Song was stunned. Clearly, he did not expect Li Er to suddenly ask such a question. He quickly gathered all the information he knew in his mind, then stepped forward and answered,
"Your Majesty, according to what I know, Li Yu came to Chang 'an City last year. The first person she met was Meng Wenhao. Later on, by chance, she met the Duke of Yong' an. The Duke of Yong 'an saw that she was smart and had no one to rely on in Chang' an City, so he arranged for her to work in the Datang Daily editorial department! The girl behind him is also very hardworking and studious. She stood out from the group of literary talents in the editorial department of Tang Dynasty Daily and became the best reporter there! "
Li Er nodded and asked again, "Then do you know where Li Yu came from? Who are her parents? Where do they live? "
Zhao Song frowned and thought for a while. He shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I only know that Li Yu came from Jiangnan Yuezhou, but I don't know who her parents are."
Then, he asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, do you think there's something wrong with Li Yu's identity?"
He was not stupid. For Li Er to be so concerned about someone, that person's identity was definitely not ordinary.
Li Er frowned and asked, "Zhao Song, don't you think Li Yu looks like someone? Forget it, at that time, you weren't at my side yet! Send someone to investigate Li Yu's father and mother, but don't alarm Li Yu and the Duke of Yong 'an! "
For a moment, Zhao Song was confused. Was he investigating Li Yu as a bad person or as a good person?
Although he was full of doubts, Zhao Song knew what to ask and what not to ask after accompanying Li Er for so many years. He bowed deeply and replied, "Yes! I'll arrange for someone to go to Jiangnan Yuezhou! "
"Mm!"
Li Er nodded. Zhao Song saw that Li Er did not have any other orders, so he left.
"Similar, too similar! But how is this possible? She … "
In the hall, Li Er sighed faintly!
…
"Haha! Wenhao, your parents must be worried about you. Go back first! We'll go to the academy tomorrow! "
After leaving the palace, Iron Egg, Meng Wenhao, Li Yu, Pang Feiji, Liu Rengui, and the others all walked together with Li Zexuan. Li Zexuan generously gave Meng Wenhao a day off. After all, he knew about Meng Wenhao's family situation.
At this moment, Meng Wenhao was also a little homesick. After all, he had never been away from home for so many days in his life. Moreover, after experiencing war and life and death, he undoubtedly cherished family and loved ones even more!
"Then, Sir, I'll go home first. Tomorrow morning, I'll go to Yunshan. I'll make the best use of my time to make up for all the missed lessons this month!"
Meng Wenhao cupped his hands and said.
"Yes! Go! "
Li Zexuan nodded.
Meng Wenhao turned to look at Li Yu and the rest. These were his comrades in Zhengzhou. Taking a deep breath, Meng Wenhao cupped his hands and said, "Little Yu 'er, Iron Egg, we will meet again at Cloud Mountain! Big Brother Liu, it's all thanks to you in Zhengzhou this time. If you have time, you can go to Yunshan to take a look! "
"See you at Yunshan!"
Iron Egg and Li Yu also cupped their hands and said goodbye.
Liu Rengui laughed and cupped his hands and said, "Little brother, take care. I'll definitely go to Yunshan to take a look at the Immortal Academy!"
Meng Wenhao nodded and turned to leave.
Li Zexuan looked at Liu Rengui and said with a smile, "I've heard the details of the battle from Little Yu 'er. Adjunct Liu, oh, no, General Liu, thank you for saving my cousin, Ye Fashan. I don't like to owe people favors. If you encounter any trouble in Chang' an City in the future, feel free to come to Yunshan to find me!"
This was a kind of promise to repay a debt of gratitude. At the same time, it was also a kind of appreciation for talent!
After all, the person in front of him was the first hero in China's history to resist the Japanese!
Liu Rengui was flattered. He quickly cupped his hands and said, "Marquis, you can't say that. That night, Brother Fashan was being hunted down. It's true that I saved him, but without Brother Fashan, I wouldn't have been able to meet Miss Li Yu, and I wouldn't have been able to send the information about the battle to the imperial court. Therefore, rather than saying that I saved Brother Fashan, it's better to say that Brother Fashan saved me!"
Li Zexuan nodded in his heart. This Liu Rengui's character was not bad. He didn't force others to repay his kindness. He smiled and said, "Haha! Anyway, I owe you a favor. What I said earlier still works. General Liu, do you have a place to stay in Chang 'an City? If not, I can send someone to arrange it for you! "
Liu Rengui cupped his hands and said, "I don't dare to trouble you, Marquis. I'm currently staying with Governor Zhao in the post house. After reporting to the Right Sentinel tomorrow, I'll be staying in the barracks! As for settling down in Chang 'an City, I haven't considered it yet! "
It wasn't that he hadn't considered it, but that he couldn't afford it. Although the housing prices in this era couldn't be compared to modern housing prices, this was Chang 'an City. It wasn't something that a newcomer like Liu Rengui could afford after joining the army.
However, Li Er had rewarded him with a hundred thousand copper coins this time. Liu Rengui pondered in his heart that after he stabilized his foundation in the Right Guards, he would take out some of his savings and perhaps be able to buy a residence in Chang 'an and bring his family over!
Li Zexuan nodded and said, "If that's the case, then we'll part ways here. We'll meet again in the future!"
"Marquis, take care!"
Liu Rengui cupped his hands and left in the direction of the post house.
Although he was now a soldier under Cheng Yaojin, Zhao Kai was his old superior. He had to say goodbye before he left!
"Haha! Iron Egg! I didn't expect you to have improved after going to Zhengzhou! You actually dared to go against the fourth of the Four Taibai Ghosts, Ming Huan? "
Li Yu, Iron Egg, and Pang Feiji were all going back to Yun Mountain. Li Zexuan came in a carriage today. Therefore, after Liu Rengui left, the four of them got on the carriage. On the way, Li Zexuan looked at Iron Egg and said with a faint smile.
The details of the battle in the city that night weren't revealed in the report that Meng Wenhao sent to the imperial court through the telegraph. Li Zexuan only heard about Iron Egg killing Ming Huan from Li Yu today.
When he heard the news, a layer of cold sweat seeped out of his back!
"Master, Iron Egg was wrong. Don't tell sister, or she'll be worried again!"
Iron Egg heard the dissatisfaction in Li Zexuan's words. He didn't explain anything and directly admitted his mistake.
"Hmph! You still know how to worry about your sister? Do you know that while you were gone, although your sister didn't tell me, I don't know how many tears she shed for you behind your back? Don't you know how much you're worth? Ming Huan is one of the Four Taibai Ghosts. How can you deal with him? "
Li Zexuan scolded mercilessly.
Although the battle in the city had eliminated the remaining three of the Four Taibai Ghosts and solved one of Li Zexuan's problems, he didn't want to eliminate the three ghosts in this way. Han Yuxi only had this one brother, and he only had this one disciple. How could Ming Huan's life be more valuable than Iron Egg's?
"Master, I … I just wanted to practice. Big Brother Liu was helping me from the side. I'll be fine. Besides, I know the Taiji Sword. It won't be a problem for me to block Ming Huan for a while! Please don't tell my sister about this, okay? Iron Egg will definitely finish his homework and practice hard in the future! "
Iron Egg hurriedly begged.
To him, Han Yuxi could be said to be both his elder sister and his mother. After he was born, his mother passed away. It was Han Yuxi who raised him single-handedly, so in his heart, Han Yuxi was very, very important!
Li Zexuan pondered for a moment and said, "It's good that you know you're wrong! Since you're back, go to the courtyard and accompany your sister! You and Wenhao will go to the academy tomorrow! Since you can survive Ming Huan's attack, it means that your martial arts have improved. In the future, you'll have to double your training! "
After saying that, Li Zexuan's face suddenly showed a devilish smile.
"Ah? Master? I … I still have a lot of homework to do in the academy. "
Iron Egg's face turned bitter when he heard that.
Ever since he started studying at Yanhuang College, his martial arts hadn't fallen behind. He would complete the training tasks Li Zexuan gave him every day. It was a habit he had kept for a long time!
"Then find some time! You can't fall behind in martial arts or homework! You said it yourself just now! "
Li Zexuan didn't care.
At this time, he looked at Li Yu and smiled. "Little Fishy, now that you've become a gold medal reporter in the editorial department, what do you think?"
A gold medal reporter had the right to report to the emperor. It could be said that the current Li Yu could go anywhere, even the county magistrate and provincial governor wouldn't dare to provoke her!
Little Fishy smiled sweetly and said, "Of course I'm happy! With this identity, I can do a lot of things for the people! However, saving Wei Zuocheng this time is what I'm most happy about! By the way, I have to thank you for the telegraph! "
Li Zexuan waved his hand and smiled. "Haha! Why are you thanking me? You did well this time. I'll host a banquet tonight at Yunshan to welcome you and Iron Egg! "
"Hehe, thank you, sir!"
…
"Marquis! You're back! "
Back at Yunshan, Li Zexuan and the other two jumped down from the carriage. Liu Feng and Liu Yun came up to them.
Li Zexuan hadn't given them the task of searching for ores, so they took the dozens of imperial guards with them and acted as Li Zexuan's bodyguards.
"Mm!"
Li Zexuan nodded and then walked into the courtyard with Iron Egg.
However, Pang Feiji, who was at the back, had a strong sense of vigilance in his heart. He sensed an inexplicable sense of danger.
"You are?"
Pang Feiji stared at Liu Feng and Liu Yun and asked expressionlessly.
"Oh! You must be Pang Sige? I'm Liu Feng and this is my brother Liu Yun. We are from the Imperial Guards of the Northern Government. His Majesty sent us to protect Marquis and help Marquis search for ores! "
Liu Feng saw that Pang Feiji's posture was steady and he walked like a soldier. Furthermore, Pang Feiji came down from the carriage with Li Zexuan. He thought for a while and guessed Pang Feiji's identity. Hence, he took the initiative to introduce himself.
Pang Feiji's expression changed slightly and he felt a little disappointed. He forced himself to calm down and saluted Liu Feng. "Oh! So you two are from the Imperial Guards. Sorry for the disrespect! "
In the past, he was only a Si Ge of the Right Marquis Household, while Liu Feng and Liu Yun were the Imperial Guards of the Northern Yamen. They were the elites of the elites in the Imperial Guard. Therefore, in terms of background, Pang Feiji was unconsciously lower than them!
Liu Feng saluted with a smile. "Haha! Since we're all here to protect Marquis, then we'll be brothers in the future. There's no need to be polite! "
"Hehe! You're right! Brother Liu is right ~! I've just returned from Zhengzhou and have some matters to attend to. I won't keep you company! "
Pang Feiji forced a smile and saluted with a salute before taking his leave.
"Big Brother, this Pang Feiji doesn't seem very happy to see us?"
Liu Yun scratched his head and looked at Liu Feng in confusion.
Liu Feng looked at Pang Feiji's back and said lightly, "No matter what, he was the first to follow Marquis. Now that he saw that we're here to protect Marquis, of course he would feel uncomfortable. This is human nature!"
Liu Yun suddenly understood. He frowned and said unhappily, "But Big Brother, we didn't want to come. It was His Majesty who ordered us to come. Why is he angry with us?"
"Sigh ~! Second Brother, don't speak nonsense and offend others. We came to Cloud Mountain under His Majesty's orders to follow Marquis' orders. Don't cause trouble. Go and tell the brothers to be respectful when they see Pang Feiji. Don't cause trouble! "
Liu Feng said sternly to Liu Yun.
"… Yes! Big Brother! "
.....
"Hey! Big Brother, you're finally back! "
Pang Feiji returned to his house. After putting down his luggage, he met his brothers at the side of the courtyard.
"Xiong Da, Xiong Er, come here!"
Pang Feiji had a question to ask. When he saw the two of them, he quickly waved his hand.
"Hey! Big Brother! You didn't get hurt in Zhengzhou, right? "
A fat soldier came over and held Pang Feiji's hand. He looked at him from head to toe.
"Hey hey hey! Let go of me, I'm fine! "
Pang Feiji waved his hand and said seriously, "Let me ask you, when did Liu Feng, Liu Yun, and the rest arrive?"
Xiong Da thought for a while and replied, "Big Brother, they've only been here for five or six days!"
"Then why did they come to protect Marquis? Could it be that someone tried to assassinate the Marquis while I was away? "
Pang Feiji asked doubtfully.
Xiong Er shook his head and said, "No! Big Brother! No one tried to assassinate Marquis! They came here under His Majesty's orders. Other than protecting Marquis, they also have to help Marquis look for ores in the future. It's said that Liu Feng and Liu Yun's ancestors were Daoist geomancers who specialize in searching for ores. However, Marquis hasn't assigned them a task yet, so they're staying here temporarily! "
"Searching for ores?"
Pang Feiji's face became gloomy. At this moment, he felt like he was about to lose his job. Oh, no, he was about to fall out of favor. This was because the person who stole his job seemed to be more "talented" than him!
