Chapter 86 Return to the capital
When Lao Tu heard that the young master's voice was full of anger, he didn't dare to be lazy. He immediately turned around and raised the car curtain, and asked with a smile: "Master, what's wrong?"
"Have you seen this letter?" Li Yi took out the envelope and handed it over.
Lao Tu took the letter, looked over it over and over, then scratched his head, smiled awkwardly and said, "Master, I really have never seen this before!"
Li Yijian, this guy is really not acting - Lao Tu, this guy is not the material for acting at all. He tells a little bit of lies, his eyes are like searchlights, wandering around in all directions, ahem, he just doesn't dare to look at you.
Son.
Since Lao Tu did not receive this letter, it is the problem of the person who sent it. He went back to Wu Xiaoming and asked him where he found the letter and who gave it to him.
However, for the moment, there is no need to worry about why this letter was delivered to him only now. What is urgently needed now is to rush back to the capital quickly and go to Prince Bo's residence to find out what's going on.
"Okay, Qin Maocai, please stop driving." Li Yi waved his hand and gave instructions casually. Unexpectedly, his instructions shocked Qin Maocai, almost thinking that Mr. Li just didn't want him anymore.
Fortunately, Li Yi's next words calmed him down: "Let Lao Tu drive, I have something urgent and I have to get back to the capital before tonight!"
Qin Maocai breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly handed the riding whip to Lao Tu. He sat aside, frowning and thinking about something.
"Master, what's wrong?" Qing'er came over carefully at this moment and asked.
Li Yi sighed, handed the letter to the maid, and said sadly: "Oh, I don't know how late this letter is, and I don't know where Yu'er has gone! This little Ni'er will definitely give birth to me.
Angry!"
Qing'er took the letter, read it, then turned her beautiful eyes upward, and thought: "This letter must have fallen into the gutter outside the house!"
"Huh?" Li Yiyi wondered and said in astonishment: "How do you know!"
Qing'er's cheeks turned red and she whispered: "Master, haven't you seen that there are some scratch marks on the back of this envelope. The person who sent the letter must have stuck the letter on the couplets on the wall outside our house..."
"Besides, there's still a bit of a stench on the outside of this envelope..."
Li Yi patted his head and suddenly realized: "In other words, this letter was sent two days after I woke up! Because after that, all the couplets on the wall had been torn off!"
After he finished speaking, he suddenly stared at the little girl in surprise and exclaimed: "I didn't expect that my young boy is actually a brilliant detective!"
"Uh..." Qing'er's cheeks immediately turned red after being praised like this, and she whispered softly: "Qing'er is so stupid that he can only find and fill in the gaps..."
The carriage changed driver, and the speed naturally increased, galloping all the way on the official road. Song Beikui and others were very good at riding, and they were able to keep the formation unchanged at all with their horses guarding them all around.
Such a motorcade racing along the official road finally arrived outside the capital when the sky was getting late, the sun was setting, and the capital was about to close its doors.
Song Beikui took the lead. He saw several soldiers in front of the capital gate from a distance, pushing the heavy gate. He hurriedly urged his horse to leave. He said loudly from a distance: "The carriage of the Imperial Taoist Supervisor Li Deacon is behind, please wait and close the door!"
"Ka——" The name of Qin Dao Supervisor was so famous in the Han Dynasty. It was said among the people that the adults of these Qin Dao Supervisors were all aloof gods. How could the soldiers guarding the gates dare to offend these gods? I heard that they were Qin Dao Supervisors.
The adults saw the tiger-headed steel knife shining brightly on Song Beikui's waist again, and immediately slowed down the closing of the door and let Li Yi's motorcade into the city.
"These sergeants are really not doing their duty! What if I were a foreign spy!" Someone said angrily in the carriage while getting an advantage but still being obedient.
In fact, these soldiers can’t be blamed. The Han Dynasty dominated the east of the mainland, and the surrounding small countries all claimed vassal status and paid tribute. The only war can be traced back to nearly twenty years ago when the general who suppressed the army defeated the Great Food Kingdom...
Therefore, most of the sergeants of the largest country, especially those in the imperial capital of the largest country, have never even heard of the word "war". How can they be vigilant?
The motorcade entered the city, and Prince Bo's Mansion happened to be on the road between Li's Mansion and the city gate. Li Yi led everyone directly to Prince Bo's Mansion - to find his wife!
It was getting late now, and the full moon was like a piece of beautiful jade, quietly placed in the middle of the dark curtain.
There are no passers-by in front of Prince Bo's palace. The two lanterns hanging high at the door illuminate the door dimly. The door sill is tall and the eaves are stacked. Coupled with this dim light, it makes the palace in front of you even more unattainable.
"Bah, bang, bang—" Lao Tu slapped the door hard enough to make a loud banging sound.
After a while, footsteps were heard from the door, and then the door opened a crack, revealing a face that looked even more dim under the light. A sallow and thin servant stuck his head out, raising his eyebrows and squinting at the person in front of him.
All the big men were immediately startled.
The servant poked his head out and saw a circle of tall, strong men standing around. They all still had steel knives on their waists. He was frightened. He was stunned for a long time before he remembered - this is Prince Bo.
In the residence of the emperor's own brother, who dares to act recklessly here without risking his life?
Thinking of this, he felt calm and asked impatiently: "Who are you and what are you doing here!"
"My Excellency, Li Yi -" Li Yi walked out from behind Lao Tu, clasped his hands and asked, "May I ask, is Princess Jade in your mansion here?"
"Li Yi? Mr. Li!" After hearing this name, the servant's expression changed and he seemed to be startled. He rolled his eyes and thought for a while, then said: "Well, this, our prince and the princess are going to
I went to visit relatives in Xinyang County..."
"Going to visit relatives?" Li Yi narrowed his eyes.
"Yes, the prince and the princess are visiting relatives. If you want to see the prince, please come back next month!" The servant obviously lacked confidence. Before he finished speaking, he hurriedly closed the door with a bang.
Sitting on the carriage, Li Yi quietly leaned on the animal skin behind him, narrowing his eyes and thinking carefully: The servant had obviously deceived him before. Before he spoke, he rolled his eyes upward to show that he was imagining - Prince Bo,
Why assign these people to prevent him from meeting Liu Yu?
I'm afraid, it's not just as simple as having a grudge against his father! Prince Bo, otherwise, what good will it do to him to meet Princess Jade himself?
Li Yi knew very well that none of these people in high positions were simple-minded, not to mention that the man in front of him was the emperor's younger brother. Isn't it a great wisdom to be able to be Prince Xiaoyao for so many years without being feared by the emperor? If so,
He has no profit motive, so he is just trying to play himself, a person who is highly valued by the emperor and the imperial advisor. How is it possible!
However, Li Yi didn't care in his heart, and he didn't care about the so-called rules and regulations in officialdom. If he compared officialdom to a temple with strict disciplines, then he would be an unruly person who opened a brothel in a temple.
