Looking at Meng Yi's leaving figure, Li Si looked at Ran Fang with a smile and said comfortingly: "Young man, you are a bit angry."
Ran Fang looked indifferent, as if Meng Yi's words would not have any impact on him at all.
Seeing this, Li Si still had a smile on his face, but he was wondering in his heart whether Ran Fang really didn't know him or was unwilling to tell Meng Yi.
Seeing that Ran Fang had almost finished eating, he carefully considered his tone and asked, "Do you understand the ovary that the man just mentioned?"
"Since Tingwei Mansion says that the man is an assassin, it must be true. If he is really familiar with Mr., then this matter will be more difficult to handle."
Hearing this, Ran Fang raised his head and glanced at Li Si. His eyes seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and a trace of embarrassment flashed across Li Si's face.
"There are so many people looking for me, should I know every one of them?"
"He is just a wine shop owner. I don't know anything else. If you really ask me to tell you the reason, I can't tell you."
"It's just that during the conversation, I felt that this person has the talent of a general, so I praised him a few times."
What this means is that no matter how they ask, his answer is always the same.
In this case, Li Si didn't know what to say.
He smiled easily and said with some regret, "That's it."
"If it is true as Mr. said, this person can be used as his own, but he is an assassin, so it will be a bit difficult to deal with."
As he spoke, he sighed, seeming to regret this matter.
Ran Fang ignored him and looked at the bamboo slips in his hands as if he didn't exist.
It seemed that Ran Fang was a little angry with his question just now.
"Is this venison to your liking, sir?"
"If you like it, sir, I will send you some more in a few days."
Venison is a good thing, the meat is tender and delicious.
Now since someone is willing to give it away, why not?
Ran Fang glanced at Li Si and nodded slightly.
"That would be troublesome."
Seeing that Ran Fang was not angry, Li Si felt relieved.
Although Ran Fang was of little use to him, but he actually wanted to take him as his own in the future, there was no need to offend him for such a trivial matter now.
"It's a trivial matter, not worth mentioning."
As they spoke, the two of them seemed to be in harmony as if nothing had happened. They were chatting about some insignificant things.
…
Meng Yi waited outside Xianyang Prison for more than an hour. At this moment, he had returned to his usual calmness, and he was completely different from the person he was in prison just now.
After seeing Li Si slowly walking out from inside, Meng Yi bowed to Li Si in a polite manner.
"See Prime Minister."
"I was disrespectful in prison just now. I hope the Prime Minister will forgive me."
No matter how anxious he was, Meng Yi never forgot the rules, which was something Li Si appreciated.
He looked at Meng Yi with no expression on his face, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
"Meng Zhonglang is waiting for me here. What do you want?"
Obviously, Meng Yi was stunned for a moment.
He didn't expect Li Si to ask this. He thought that since he had been in prison for so long, Li Si would help him ask Ran Fang about Zhang Zifang.
Now Li Si looked like he didn't know anything, which made him a little at a loss.
After all, he was young, not as good at hiding his inner emotions as Li Si.
There was a hint of embarrassment on his face, and he smiled, "The Prime Minister was in prison just now. Can I ask Ran Fang where the ovary is?"
Hearing Meng Yi's words, Li Si's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at Meng Yi sharply.
"how?"
“Don’t I need your consent to say or do anything I do?!”
With just this sentence, Meng Yi knew that he had offended Li Si.
Having been an official in the court for many years, Meng Yi thought he still knew Li Si well. Seeing him like this, he knew what was going on.
Li Si has always been one person below ten thousand people in the court, and there is nothing he doesn't know.
Yesterday, His Majesty invited him to the palace and asked him to investigate the affairs of Zhang Zifang at this moment, but he did not tell Li Si. This time he went to see Ran Fang in person and was bumped into by Li Si. Naturally, Li Si was angry.
Thinking about it, Meng Yi bowed respectfully to Li Si again: "There is no clear result yet on Zhang Zifang. Although he may be an assassin, it still needs to be discussed whether he is related to the assassination of His Majesty Bolangsha. .”
"Last night, your Majesty rushed into the palace. Today, I went to arrest Zhang Zifang, but found nothing."
"So, today I came to look for Ran Fang, just to confirm the matter through his mouth, to give His Majesty an explanation, and to reassure the Prime Minister."
"Just now, my official tone sounded a little anxious. I hope the Prime Minister will bear with me."
In a few words, he talked about Zhang Zifang.
Meng Yi knew that even if he didn't say it now, with the Prime Minister's ability, it would be a matter of time before he found out.
However, he concealed the conversation between Ran Fang and Zhang Zifang. His Majesty told him personally, so naturally he would not tell anyone else.
This is enough for Li Si. As long as he knows the identity of the ovary and cannot let it go easily, Li Si will not hide it.
Li Si looked at Meng Yi's innocent eyes that revealed his scheming, and knew that he definitely didn't tell him anything important.
But he has no intention of pursuing it. There are some things that he can know or pretend not to know.
"I see."
"Then I'm afraid you will be disappointed. Just now in prison, Ran Fang didn't say anything about Zhang Zifang."
This answer was another surprise for Meng Yi. In his opinion, Prime Minister Li Si had a brilliant plan. Is there anyone and anything in the world that he couldn't handle?
Although I had doubts in my heart, I didn't dare to ask.
He could only say cautiously: "In that case, I'll trouble the Prime Minister."
"But this matter is related to His Majesty's safety after all. If the assassin is not caught, I am afraid that the entire lieutenant army in Xianyang City will have sleepless nights."
"It's really heart-wrenching. I wonder where this ovary is hidden?"
"If it is not resolved at this time, I am afraid that my lieutenant general will also come to an end."
As he spoke, he looked at Li Si, wanting to see something else from his eyes.
It's a pity that Li Si's eyes were very firm and did not waver at all because of his words.
There was even a hint of sarcasm, which made Meng Yi very frustrated.
He was ignored by Ran Fang in prison just now, and now he is laughed at by the Prime Minister when he comes out. He really provokes everyone.
Thinking of this, he asked reluctantly: "Prime Minister, do you really have no clues?"
Li Si didn't even look at him and walked directly towards his carriage.
Just when Meng Yi thought that was all, he heard Li Si say: "Who is the person who took Zhang Zifang to Xianyang Prison?"
With this sentence, Meng Yi was suddenly enlightened.
He saluted Li Si's carriage and said, "Thank you, Prime Minister."
After saying that, he left Xianyang Prison in a happy mood.
