The backyard of the Hou Mansion.
Li Ziye walked back.
Nan'er had changed into beautiful clothes early and was waiting in front of the room.
Not many people know Nan'er's identity, mainly because Li Ziye has just returned to the city and many things have not yet spread.
Therefore, the servants in the mansion only know that the Marquis has brought back a little girl. As for the identity, they cannot guess at the moment.
Curiosity is human nature, and the servants in the mansion even speculated that the little girl brought back by the Marquis was his illegitimate daughter.
"Xiao Bai, can't we go together?"
In the front yard, Nan'er raised her head and asked.
"cannot."
Li Ziye shook his head gently, "Xiaobai has grown too big. The Great Shang Capital City is different from the grassland. Xiaobai will scare others if he goes out."
"oh."
Nan'er responded softly and didn't ask any more questions.
The two held hands, big and small, and left the mansion under the curious and gossipy eyes of the servants of the Hou Mansion.
The streets of the capital city are very lively, with pedestrians coming and going, and countless stalls. The prosperity of the big merchant capital is far beyond the eight parts of Mobei.
Nan'er is new to the Central Plains and is curious about everything. Look at this and look at that. The sorrow of being a hostage has long been completely forgotten.
Of course, Li Ziye never regarded Nan'er as a hostage. He basically responded to every request and gave him whatever he asked.
"Bad guy, what is that?"
"Candied haws."
"Is it tasty?"
"It's delicious. Can I buy you a bunch?"
"good."
After a simple conversation, Nan'er had a bunch of red candied haws in her hand.
"Bad guy, what is that?"
"Osmanthus cake."
"Is it tasty?"
"It's okay, but I'm a little choked. Can I buy you something to try?"
"good."
After walking a few steps, Nan'er had another bag of sweet-scented osmanthus cake in her hand.
Li Ziye held the hand of the little girl next to him and walked casually on the street, buying some snacks from time to time. It was a rare half-day break.
"I can't swallow it."
After just eating two pieces of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, Nan'er handed over the remaining pieces and said, "I won't eat any more."
Seeing this, Li Ziye took the remaining sweet-scented osmanthus cake and ate it himself. Then, he also choked.
He said that this thing is choking, so if you eat two pieces, it’s okay, but if you eat too much, you really can’t swallow it.
"I'm thirsty."
Nan'er raised her little head and said.
"Honey water, okay?"
Li Ziye stuffed the last piece of osmanthus cake into his mouth, swallowed it reluctantly, looked at the stall not far away, and asked.
"good."
Nan'er nodded in response.
So, Li Ziye took the little girl to the street stall and asked for a bowl of honey water.
Nan'er took a few sips, and her attention was drawn to other things on the street.
Li Ziye drank the remaining honey water, and then continued to accompany his little ancestor to see other rare things.
"This, don't want this, wrap up everything else."
"And this, yes, I want them all."
"Where to send it? To the Buyihou Mansion."
Along the way, Li Ziye fully demonstrated his rich and willful nature as a nouveau riche, and bought everything Nan'er liked.
If the child wants it, can he say no to buying it?
Traveling thousands of miles to be a hostage is pitiful enough, but asking for something is not too much.
"Bad guy, I can't walk anymore."
After walking three streets, Nan'er, who was full and full, stopped and raised her little head and said.
"Carry it on your back?" Li Ziye asked.
"good."
Nan'er responded softly.
Li Ziye, who bowed his head to be a child, knelt down and carried the little girl on his back.
If it weren't for the war, given that Li Ziye and Lord Bai Di had experienced life and death friendship together, even a sworn relationship with Jinlan wouldn't be too much. The daughter of an old friend was actually half of his niece.
Li Ziye already felt guilty for kidnapping a ten-year-old girl. Coupled with his friendship with Lord Bai Di, how could he not treat Nan'er with all his heart.
Public is public, private is private, there is no conflict.
On the street, Li Ziye walked among the pedestrians with Nan'er on his back, introducing the customs and characteristics of the Central Plains to the little girl with a smile on his face.
The two of them walked around for most of the day, walking through countless streets. Gradually, behind Li Ziye, the little girl's breathing gradually became calmer, and she obviously fell asleep from exhaustion.
Li Ziye felt this, took a look at the sky, slowed down a little, and returned to the original route.
"Master Hou."
In the Buyihou Mansion, Li Ziye had just returned when a servant walked over quickly and handed over a secret letter.
Li Ziye took the secret letter and couldn't help but trembled when he saw the contents.
"Bad guy, what's wrong?"
Behind the scenes, Nan'er woke up and saw a completely unfamiliar ghost drawing on the letter, and asked curiously.
"fine."
Li Ziye came back to his senses, suppressed his emotions, forced a smile and said, "Nan'er, can you come down and walk by yourself?"
"Um."
Nan'er nodded and slid off the former.
Li Ziye took the little girl back to the backyard. When he saw Yu Qingxuan in the yard, he said, "Qingxuan, take Nan'er to freshen up and then rest early."
"yes!"
Yu Qingxuan accepted the order and stepped forward to take Nan'er and go back to the room to freshen up.
After arranging Nan'er, Li Ziye returned to his room and closed the door directly.
To the west, the sun has set and the sky is getting dark.
At night, the lights in Li Ziye's room went out and people disappeared.
Li Garden, inner courtyard.
Huanzhu and Hongzhu stood in the courtyard, waiting patiently.
Suddenly, in the courtyard, an afterimage passed by and appeared in front of the two of them.
"Go back to your room and talk."
Li Ziye said something and walked towards the room next to him.
The two of them followed up and entered the room together.
"what happened?"
In the room, Li Ziye turned around, looked at the two people, his eyes were extremely cold, and asked.
"Without roots, something went wrong."
Hongzhu lowered her head and replied, "Although the shape, name, and attributes all match the name Wugensheng, it is still wrong."
After hearing Hongzhu's explanation, Li Ziye felt a chill flash in his eyes and said, "Hongzhu, you are responsible for the intelligence!"
"This subordinate is guilty."
Hongzhu trembled and responded.
"Brother."
On the side, Huanzhu saw the completely unfamiliar side of his brother in front of him. Although he was a little scared, he still couldn't help but plead, "This matter is indeed too coincidental. The ancient books in the world can only record the names of the rootless people. There is really no way to tell." verify."
"I only look at the results."
Li Ziye said coldly, "Hongzhu, you should know the rules of the Li family."
"Rules, what rules."
At this time, outside the room, Mao Nanfeng pushed the door in. Looking at the boy in front of him who was looking for trouble as soon as he came back, he said angrily, "Boy, as long as I am here, no one can touch my disciples!"
"Senior Nan Wang."
Li Ziye looked at Mao Nanfeng who broke in through the door, narrowed his eyes and said, "This is a family matter of the Li family. Seniors have no right to interfere."
"Old man, get out!"
On the side, Hongzhu also showed a hint of anger on his face and said, "You have nothing to do here!"
"Why does it have nothing to do with me?"
Mao Nanfeng said in a deep voice, "You are my only disciple. As long as I am not dead, no one can touch you."
Having said this, Mao Nanfeng stared at the boy in front of him and asked, "Tell me, how can we exempt Hongzhu girl from her guilt?"
"A life for a life."
Li Ziye said with a cold expression, "Senior Nan Wang, can you do it?"
