Yuelai Inn, in the guest room on the second floor.
When old friends met, the atmosphere was not at all friendly as expected.
Li Junsheng made no secret of his indifference, even though the woman in front of him was the most distinguished eldest princess of Dashang.
The two have known each other for a long time. Back when the Li family was an ordinary business in Yuzhou City and before Li Ziye was born, Li Junsheng had been to the capital and met Mu Xizi several times.
However, the relationship between the two is really not good.
Indeed, the Li family 20 years ago did not pose a threat to the royal family, and there was no issue of stance between Li Junsheng and Mu Xizi. However, two people who are not hostile do not necessarily have to have friendship.
Li Junsheng has never been a person who wants to follow the dragon and the phoenix. As long as his temper is not right, he will stay away from him and refuse to say a word.
Obviously, Mu Xizi is the kind of person Li Junsheng doesn't like.
From beginning to end, in Li Junsheng's eyes, Mu Xizi was not a person worthy of close friendship, because the eldest princess of Dashang was too thoughtful and would not show her true colors to others.
In the room, the two of them sat across the table, and the atmosphere became increasingly tense. Li Junsheng's attitude was obviously colder than Mu Xizi had imagined.
"I heard, Junsheng, you had a conflict with Prince Gan Yang yesterday?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit dull, Mu Xizi began to take the initiative to find a topic and asked, "Why did the uncle-nephew affair get so bad? Is there any misunderstanding between you two?"
"The Li family's affairs don't bother Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Li Junsheng responded coldly, "We can handle it ourselves."
Mu Xizi smiled, picked up the teapot on the table, poured two cups of tea, and said calmly, "You are Wenqing's friend, and you are my friend. If Wenqing is still alive, these words today are also the same questions. of."
"Wenqing is Wenqing, the eldest princess is the eldest princess, you are different."
Li Junsheng looked at the woman in front of him and said calmly, "Besides, Wenqing will not interfere too much with my affairs. Your Royal Highness, the eldest princess, if you are just here to visit an old friend today, I welcome you, but if you want to interfere with the Li family's affairs, , please forgive me for not staying too long."
"I'm too talkative, so I won't ask any more questions."
Mu Xizi smiled softly and replied, "Today, we just have tea with old friends and don't talk about anything else."
After saying that, Mu Xizi pushed the cup of tea in front of him and continued, "Jun Sheng, how long do you plan to stay in the capital this time?"
"It's not clear yet."
Li Junsheng picked up the tea cup in front of him and said calmly, "Come or leave, it all depends on your mood."
"You are still so free and easy."
Mu Xizi sighed, "How long have we known each other, twenty-two or twenty-three years?"
"Twenty-three years."
Li Junsheng took a sip of tea and responded.
"It turns out it's been so long."
Mu Xizi said with a complicated expression, "Unknowingly, we are all old."
As he spoke, Mu Xizi looked at the face of the man in front of him that had not changed much. He looked almost the same as ten years ago or even twenty-three years ago.
But she lost her cultivation, her time, and everything.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess's appearance remains the same as before, without any changes."
Li Junsheng said calmly, "Similarly, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess's thoughts are as incomprehensible as before."
"You are overly praised."
Mu Xizi said softly, "I am just a useless person who has lost all her cultivation. Even if she is left alive, she is just lingering."
"did you find it?"
Li Junsheng looked at the woman in front of him and suddenly asked.
When Mu Xizi heard this, his expression was slightly startled. After a moment, his eyes dimmed, he shook his head gently and replied, "No."
"Don't you have any clues?" Li Junsheng frowned and asked.
"No."
Mu Xizi shook his head and replied, "Over the years, I have sent people to search all over the Central Plains, but found nothing."
"If you need help with this matter, just ask." Li Junsheng said seriously.
"Is it because of my friendship with Wen Qing?" Mu Xizi asked softly.
"Your Highness, the eldest princess, I don't want anyone to mention the name Wenqing when talking about this matter." Li Junsheng's face darkened and he warned.
Mu Xizi was silent for a long time, and then said softly, "Actually, I have a suspicious person."
"Who?" Li Junsheng asked with a focused gaze.
"Li Yuan, Yu Qingxuan." Mu Xizi replied.
After hearing the former's words, Li Junsheng's expression changed again.
People from Li Yuan?
At the same time, the inner courtyard of Li Garden.
In the room, Li Ziye frowned as he looked at the chess game on the table.
What went wrong?
"Young Master."
Across the table, Taotao looked at the person in front of her and asked in confusion, "Is there something you can't figure out?"
"Um."
Li Ziye came back to his senses and nodded in response, "The night before yesterday, the old man who was punting the boat said that Yu Qingxuan's face is beyond words. I'm wondering whether this sentence is trustworthy."
"If the young master can't figure it out, just ask the old man." Taotao reminded.
Li Ziye was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he stopped laughing and said, "Yes, why didn't I think of such a simple thing?"
"The young master is a fan of the authorities." Taotao said with a smile.
"I'll go find the old man and ask."
Li Ziye said something, then stood up and walked outside.
In addition to taking on some special jobs, the old man seemed to be wandering around the Xiangshui Lake outside the city on weekdays. You should be able to find him there.
More than half an hour later, outside the capital, a carriage rumbled past, rushing to the place where the old man often stayed to kill customers.
Soon, the carriage stopped in front of the largest lake outside the city, and Li Ziye got off the carriage.
By the lake, an old man was sitting boredly on a boat, waiting for the young men and women who came over for an outing, looking for opportunities to make a fortune.
"Uncle Zhao."
Li Ziye looked happy when he saw the old man, and hurried forward and said, "You are indeed here."
"Master Li?"
On the boat, old man Zhao saw the person coming, looked around, and asked in surprise, "Why are you here alone, without a girl?"
"No girl with me."
Li Ziye responded, "I'm here today because I want to have a few words with Uncle Zhao."
"Find me?"
Old man Zhao asked in confusion, "What does Mr. Li want from me, an old man?"
"I would like to ask you, old man, that day you said that the people behind us are all precious. Do you still remember that?" Li Ziye asked.
"Remember."
Old Man Zhao nodded and said, "Speaking of which, every time Mr. Li brings girls, they are all extremely expensive. He is really lucky."
"That's all I'm asking"
Just as Li Ziye was about to speak, his expression suddenly shook again.
etc.
The girl you bring every time?
He only took care of three people in total, the eldest grandson Nanqiao, Mu Jin and Yu Qingxuan!
The eldest grandson Nanqiao was born into a powerful family, and Yu Qingxuan was his target this time. Let’s not talk about these two people for now, but what about Mu Jin?
Could it be that there is also a problem with Hibiscus's identity?
It’s such a mess, what’s going on?
"Uncle Zhao."
After a moment of shock, Li Ziye suppressed the emotions in his heart and asked solemnly, "Does the girl I brought here for the second time also have the appearance of a noble person?"
"That girl?"
Old man Zhao thought for a moment and smiled, "There are indeed some, but how do I, old man, feel that you are somewhat similar to that girl?"
