That night, Li Yanqing was as fond of water, and his love was endless. The two of them didn't fall asleep tiredly until late at night.

As soon as dawn the next day, a magpies were surprised to hear from the yard, "Has the little official got up yet?"

"He was tired all the way, so I asked him to sleep a little longer."

In the room, Li Yanqing couldn't help laughing, "Is it a journey tiring?" He imagined how unnatural the expression on Sisi's face would be when she said this.

However, Li Yanqing also admires Sisi. With such a slender body, she can get up early the next day, which is a woman's toughness!

Li Yanqing stretched his waist long and put on a piece of clothing. He walked to the door and saw the magpie holding a plate and talking to Sisi, "He used to get up on time at the fifth update, but why are he becoming lazy now?"

"You won't ask me to get up at five o'clock in my life!" Li Yanqing leaned against the door, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and looked at the magpie with a smile.

The magpie shivered in fear, and the plate almost landed, "So the little official has gotten up!"

I haven't seen a magpies for more than a year. Although my appearance has not changed much, I have grown a lot and I have gained a little weight. More importantly, Li Yanqing saw a kind of maturity and ability that I had never had before in her eyes.

"What is on the plate?" Li Yanqing asked with a smile when he pulled his thoughts back.

"It's the tea I ordered, and the little official wanted to drink tea early in the morning." The magpie lowered her head guiltily.

"Come in!"

Li Yanqing went back to the house to sit down. The magpie came in with a tea bowl. She put it down and stood aside with her hands hanging down. According to the habit, she should have combed her hair for the young official. She suddenly remembered Sisi, combing her husband's hair seemed to be a concubine's business.

Li Yanqing skillfully tied a knot on his hair and put on a flat towel. When he saw the magpie a little dazed, he smiled and said, "In the army, he combs his hair, washes his feet, spreads his own quilts, and serves his own food. He does everything by himself, and he is used to it."

"Oh!" The magpie agreed quietly, but did not speak.

She was also very conflicted. She already had a career she loved and had more than a dozen subordinates. Sometimes she didn't even have to eat when she was busy, and sometimes she would do it very late. For this reason, the master even bought a little maid to take care of her daily life.

But when the little official came back, she hoped that she could return to the little official and continue to be his little maid, which was also what she liked to do.

For a moment, the magpie was in a very conflicted mind, and she didn't know what to do?

"Magpie, why are you not leaving yet? You are going to be late!" Sisi walked in and said with a smile.

At this moment, the magpie finally made up her mind, "Then I'll leave, little official, we'll see you tonight."

"See you tonight!" Li Yanqing nodded with a smile.

The magpie felt sad and turned around and walked quickly.

Sisi looked at her slender figure and sighed softly, "Mr., you shouldn't be so cold to her."

"Then what's not cold?"

"She is your personal little maid. I haven't seen you for a long time. You should hug her or ask her to comb your hair. I believe she will be very happy."

Li Yanqing shook her head, "She is no longer my little maid, she was not two years ago. I asked my father to return her body sale contract to her mother, and she knew it herself."

"But she still treats herself as your little maid in her heart."

"Then let's cut off her idea. She is very good now, has craftsmanship and can make money. She is the highest salary in Baoyanzhai. Zhang Gu is willing to poach her at a high price of 300 guan a month."

"But she just wants to be your little maid and husband, don't you understand?"

Li Yanqing didn't say anything for a while. He gently rubbed his temples and said in a deep voice: "She was very hesitant just now, which means she also wanted to do her own thing. I should fulfill her. She is only fourteen years old and everything is still ignorant. When she grows up and becomes truly sensible, she will be grateful to me."

Sisi nodded silently. In fact, she also recognized the words of the husband. Giving the magpie a new life may not be a good thing.

Li Yanqing came to Hongqiao Inn and happened to meet Yang Guang and three brothers at the entrance of the inn.

Yang Guang hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I will take my three brothers to visit the capital today. They are all the first time they have come."

"Be careful and don't cause trouble."

"Don't worry, General! We all understand."

Li Yanqing gave them some money and asked again: "Where is Mr. Mo?"

"He went out early in the morning, as if he was visiting a relative."

Li Yanqing knew that Mo Jun's uncle was in the capital, and the man who was almost seventy years old was probably going to visit his uncle.

Since everyone had made arrangements, Li Yanqing didn't force everyone, so he hired a ox cart to enter the city alone and came to Zheng Mansion on Baokangmen Street.

The reason why Li Yanqing regarded visiting Zheng Rongtai as his first arrangement was because he wanted to know what happened, even Zheng Baishi was demoted to a commoner.

The front door of the Zheng family was very deserted, and even the guardian was listless. It was not until Li Yanqing gave him a handful of money that he barely entered the mansion to find someone for Li Yanqing.

Soon, Zheng Rongtai walked out quickly, and Li Yanqing was shocked. After not seeing each other for several months, Zheng Rongtai actually lost a lot of weight.

When Zheng Rongtai saw Li Yanqing, his mouth grinned and his eyes suddenly turned a little red.

Li Yanqing knew that something must have happened, so he said to him: "Brother Zheng, let's find a place to sit!"

Zheng Rongtai followed Li Yanqing to a teahouse not far away. The two went up to the second floor to sit down. Zheng Rongtai said discouragedly: "I have been removed from office, demoted to a commoner, and was exposed for cheating in the imperial examination. Originally, Dali Temple wanted to arrest me and be imprisoned. Thanks to his father's timely tribute to Li Yan, I was spared from the prison."

"It's okay at home!"

"What's good?"

Zheng Rongtai snorted, "Since my sister was demoted, my family has been turned upside down. My grandmother, no! She should have called her an old beggar, but she was determined to divorce my grandfather. Her grandfather divorced her in anger. She returned to Xiangzhou to retire and lost her official position. My fame and honor were also expelled. She will never be an official in this life."

"What happened? The situation became so serious?" Li Yanqing asked in a low voice.

"Do you remember the last time the prince asked me to arrange a meeting with you?"

Li Yanqing nodded. Of course he remembered, "Is it related to this matter?"

"It has nothing to do with you, but the prince tasted the sweetness and always asked me to send a message to him. One night I came out of the Eastern Palace and was caught by Li Yan and beaten to death. I also found a secret letter from the prince to Gaoshen from me, and Li Yan reported to the emperor."

Only then did Li Yanqing understand the whole story. This matter was indeed very serious. It can only be said that the prince was too uncautious. He could only do such things once or twice at most. He was happy about it, and sooner or later he would be discovered.

Li Yanqing remembered the first time he saw the prince Zhao Huan, Zhao Huan returned from hunting with a large group of powerful children and wandered around the market. He had just been crowned as the prince. This shows that Zhao Huan was very casual and took the position of prince but was unpredictable. No wonder the Jingkang shame occurred when he was in power. This is by no means accidental!

At this time, Zheng Rongtai suddenly remembered that Zhong Shidao was also dismissed. He hurriedly asked, "I won't be implicated, too!"

Li Yanqing smiled bitterly, "How could I be in the capital? I have applied for transfer and work under Tong Guan, and I will be very happy!"

"Hey! We are all the same. My sister was demoted. Our Zheng family was like the sky collapsed. My father sighed all day long. My mother cried all day long. My sister couldn't even remarry. She had to go to the female Taoist temple to become a monk. Do you know how I survived the past two months?"

"It's a blessing to have a misfortune from Sai's horse. It's not necessarily a bad thing for your sister to not be a royal concubine."

"What do you mean?"

"I can't explain it clearly, you will understand in the future."

Zheng Rongtai sighed, "Our Zheng family has no future!"

Li Yanqing pondered for a moment and said, "But your Zheng family still has money, right? It's rich enough to rival a country."

"What can I do if I have money? The key is that I have no power."

"You Zheng family can use money to secretly help the prince. As long as he ascends the throne, he will definitely repay your Zheng family and you will rise again."

Zheng Rongtai was excited, "You said the prince would not abandon our Zheng family?"

Li Yanqing laughed, "Is it because your sister can be a partial concubine that the prince likes your Zheng family's money?"
