"What's going on? No one is here?"
With that said, Li Jun turned to look at Li Yuan and Wang Can.
"Sister, Cancan, no one seems to be at home. Let's find a place to rest. I'll go to the government office to see if my brother-in-law is there."
Because they were holding three children and the children were small, the weather here was hot and the sun was poisonous, so Li Yuan and Wang Can found a teahouse to rest.
Unexpectedly, they had not gone very far when the door of Xie's mansion was opened.
It was Li Tai who came to open the door. After he opened the door, he stuck his head out and looked around.
Soon I found a group of familiar people, and for a while I thought I was dazzled.
He first called out: "Master? Uncle, uncle, wife?"
In the past, Li Tai also called Li Yuan his wife. Later, after Xie Yanzhi became an official, he began to have some scruples about calling people.
To Li Yuan and Xie Yanzhi, he always calls them master.
Li Yuan was looking for a teahouse nearby when she suddenly heard Li Tai's voice and turned around quickly.
After seeing that the door was open, she held a child in one hand and walked over quickly, taking three steps at a time and two steps at a time.
Seeing her walking so fast, Li Tai was so frightened that his heart jumped wildly.
He wanted to reach out and help carry the child, but he didn't dare, so he could only help Li Jun carry his luggage.
"Artai, are you the only one in the house?"
Although Li Tai is young, he has followed Xie Yanzhi around in the past few years and has been taught a lot. He was already smart, but now he is even more clever.
When he heard this, he knew what it meant, and said: "No! Master, you will know when you return home!"
Li Yuan saw that it was inconvenient for him to speak, so she didn't dig deeper.
The area of Xie Yanzhi's Tongzhifu is not small. It is a fourth-year college. In fact, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a fifth-year college.
Since his family members were not here and there were few people, he simply divided the five-entry courtyard, then asked people to build walls, and directly allocated one-third to Cao Zhi and others.
When Li Yuan arrived at the main courtyard with her child in her arms, she happened to see Xie Yanzhi standing under the eaves in a state of embarrassment, staring closely at the ear room.
Hearing the sound coming from the courtyard, he turned around and saw Li Yuan standing there holding the child, still unable to react.
This was the first time Li Yuan saw him like this.
"Brother Xie?"
Xie Yanzhi came to his senses, ignored his own embarrassment, walked quickly to her, stretched out his hand and gave her a hug.
Then she took a step back and looked down at the child in her arms.
Looking at his expression, he was a little happy and a little at a loss.
I want to hug him, but I don’t dare.
Li Yuan saw this and was about to speak when she heard Li Jun ask: "Brother-in-law, what are you doing?"
He said, holding the child in one hand, and pointing to the door of the penthouse with his free hand.
Xie Yanzhi, who was still happy at first, looked back, and then sighed quietly, "Yun Jing is inside!"
Li Yuan learned about the roles he and Ying Lei played in Dongfeng Mansion from previous correspondence with him.
When she heard someone inside, she subconsciously asked: "Brother Xie, did something happen?"
Xie Yanzhi's heart skipped a beat, and he reached out to hug the child, then entered the main room stiffly.
After a group of people came in, he said: "Yun Jing has been ruthless in the salt affairs this time, which made the Ye family dissatisfied. Yesterday he took people to inspect the salt fields, and was plotted on the way back. If it weren't for I asked Min Weizhong to send someone to follow him, and he is probably dead now."
Li Yuan always knew that when they wanted to renovate Dongfeng Mansion, the salt affairs would be the hardest nut to crack.
Unexpectedly, they would take action so quickly.
"Did someone from the Ye family do it? Is there any evidence? He is here now, so your so-called bad relationship is self-defeating."
Xie Yanzhi shook his head: "No! It has been arranged. I will tell you in detail later. You must be tired after running all the way here, so you should go and rest first. By the way, where did you come from? Did you see Brother Cao on the way? "
"I didn't see it. We took a boat halfway..."
Before Li Yuan could finish her words, the child in her arms started to cry.
This one cried, and the other two cried too.
Xie Yanzhi looked at the child in his arms at a loss, wondering what was going on.
Li Jun, who is already quite experienced, said: "Although they are less than two months old, they are very well-behaved. They are usually sleeping. If they cry, they will either poop or be hungry!"
Xie Yanzhi was inexperienced and could only watch as Li Yuan and Wang Can called Li Tai to lead the way, and then left with the children in their arms.
When there were only two people left in the hall, Xie Yanzhi leaned back and said in a low voice: "Junzi, has Yuan Niang told you about Yun Jing?"
When Li Jun heard him ask about this, he nodded solemnly.
"Well, I just said a few things. I also know some from other places."
"Yun Jing originally planned for me to fake my death and change my identity to follow me after I return to the capital, and become my adviser in the future. But some time ago, the woman from Prince Anlin's palace threatened him with the body of his eldest sister, asking him to kill the eldest son of the concubine. Bring your wife and children here."
Li Jun frowned when he heard this.
As long as anyone with some connections can find out about the dirty things in Prince Anlin's palace, they can find out if they take the time to inquire carefully.
For Ying Lei to be dead to the outside world and take office as a concubine, everyone who knew about it felt outrageous.
Especially when the emperor actually cooperated, everyone could guess that the emperor was determined to deal with King Anlin.
It seems that the woman also knew about it and was afraid that it would be bad if she stayed in the capital, so she forced him to get her away!
If they delay in the capital, their daughter-in-law and grandson should be able to survive as others as long as they put some effort into staying far away from the capital.
Just using the body of the legitimate daughter who died young as a blackmail is really disgusting, and it is simply not something that humans can do!
If Li Jun could guess it, Xie Yanzhi could definitely do it too, so after he finished speaking, he paused before continuing.
"It's not that Yun Jing doesn't want his sister's body. When he left, he only took his mother's body with him. He never thought that King Anlin would agree to let that woman use the body of his child as a threat."
"He got married to Yan Jiao in Lanxia City last year, so how could he bring over other people's wives and children? Is that disgusting him or Yan Jiao?"
Li Jun didn't speak, just nodded.
Xie Yanzhi added: "This time, he was so cruel that he didn't want his sister's body. He directly handed over all the evidence he had collected previously about Prince Anlin's Mansion and the uncle's Mansion where the woman's natal family was, embezzling military pay, accepting bribes, and disregarding human lives. to the imperial court."
"The Emperor has long wanted to clean up Prince Anlin's Mansion! If nothing else happens, he will immediately ask someone to check it out after he finds out! He had some scruples before, but he lacked an honest reason. Now that the gold medal for immunity from death has been taken away, his scruples are gone. , and the reason for cleaning up is, naturally, the more serious the crime, the better, so that this king with a different surname can be uprooted!"
When Li Jun heard this, he probably understood.
"Then Master Ying is acting like this now because he wants to get rid of this identity before the emperor confirms the crime of Prince Anlin? So he is ruthless to the salt affairs and wants to use the excuse of being assassinated and killed?"
