Li Xin stayed away all night, and Li Fan waited until dawn the next day, but he still didn't come back.
However, the servants sent by the mansion brought back news that the Marquis was handling the aftermath at the temporary headquarters and was not directly involved in the battle.
Therefore, when he went to greet Xiao Qingyue, he specifically mentioned it so as not to worry him.
In addition, he said to Xiao Qingyue: "The princess should have come to pay her respects to the mother, but the mother must also know about the situation on the princess' side. The child made the decision without authorization to avoid this matter. I hope the mother will not mind."
With a bit of worry on her face, Xiao Qingyue said to him: "Brother Shu, I don't care about those customary rituals such as morning and dusk meditation. Besides, the princess is a valuable person. If she really wants to come over, I might have to salute her. It’s better to avoid it...
But compared to these, I am worried about your future.
Alas, it’s no wonder that Mr. Hou insisted on doing this and wronged you. "
"Well, it doesn't matter."
"My son is handsome, young and promising. What kind of wealth is not worthy of him? Do you have to look for someone like this?
By the way, why did you bring a cat here? Where did this come from? "
Xiao Qingyue didn't know the inside story of Yang Gu's incident until this time, because the royal family's statement to the outside world was that Princess Zhuang Ning had an intellectual disability, and she was still like a three-year-old child even now, only eating, drinking, and defecating.
She knows more about the so-called inside story than ordinary ladies, that is, Princess Zhuang Ning will go crazy from time to time, scratching, scratching and biting people.

But most importantly, the matter of body swapping with the cat was hidden.
This is called virtuality and reality.
"This is from the princess's dowry."
Li Ao made a perfunctory sound.
This time he came here specially to bring Yang Yan with him, and held her in his arms as if he were a pet.
"Meow!"
Yang Yan called out at the right moment.
Xiao Qingyue's attention was not on her, and she continued to say to Li Fan: "I have said long ago that our Marquis of Wu'an Mansion does not care about the princess's consort, but it would be better to quickly find a serious and good-natured person to continue the family line.
Otherwise, the number of people would be so scarce that the next generation would not know who to turn to for the title.
Come tomorrow, I will find some concubines for you and send them to your room..."
"hiss!"
Li Fan felt a pain in his hand, and the cat's claw scratched him hard.
"No, it's okay, mother, it's better to worry less."
Xiao Qingyue snorted coldly and said: "Normally, since you are such a big man and married, you should have some leisure time as a mother. It just so happens that both of you, father and son, are troublesome. I, a woman, can't make the decision. No one listened to his words.
I think this is good, I will give you Qian'er next to me. There seem to be some good-natured maids among the princess's bride, but I am not familiar with them now, so I will take a look first. "
Li Chuan suddenly felt a headache.
But since ancient times, in feudal dynasties, men have been the masters of the outside world and women have been the masters of the house. For example, if the Marquis Mansion wanted to marry the royal family and turn Li Fan into a consort, Xiao Qingyue could not interfere with anything. Likewise, if he wanted to get some concubines for Li Fan, he would do the same. , Li Chuan had no room to refuse.
He has no such intention yet and can only delay.
Anyway, let Xiao Qingyue put this matter aside for now, and Li Ao seemed to be running away with Yang Jie.
"This is what happened. I originally wanted to take you to meet your mother in this way to make up for the regret of not being able to worship your parents-in-law as a bride, but I didn't expect that she would say this.
But she doesn’t know about you, so it’s inevitable that she has such an idea, but you must not take it to heart. "
After leaving Xiao Qingyue's residence, Li Fan smiled bitterly and comforted Yang Yu in his arms.
"How can I take it seriously? I am a wise cat."
Yang Yan couldn't tell whether she was calm or unhappy, so she said with a smile.
"I'm a little curious, why didn't you agree smoothly?
You know, before you married me, you took the time to take in a concubine! "
"So you're still thinking about this." Li Ao couldn't help but laugh.
"I'm not, I didn't." Yang Yan quickly denied.
“Actually, I did this to increase the foundation of the Hou Mansion.
Now that the era of recovery has arrived, even disasters of the magnitude of the Giant Catastrophe have appeared. Who can be sure that there will be no disaster here next time?
It is inevitable to have some capable strangers in the family. We, father and son, have to serve the country and sit in charge of the Demon Division, and sometimes we don't care about the safety of the Marquis Mansion. "
Yang Jie thought for a while and didn't say anything more.
"By the way, some of the things that happened last night haven't been dealt with yet. Let's go and deal with them first."
Li Ao quickly changed the topic.
People with their status and status, even if they are newlyweds, have little chance to rest.
This was because Li Xin deliberately kept him in the Hou Mansion and prevented him from going to work at the Demon Suppression Department.
Li Ao simply took this opportunity to deal with the internal affairs of the Hou Mansion.
Immediately, the servants and guards of the Hou Mansion were summoned, and after some deliberation, they were rewarded when rewarded and punished when punished. In particular, they set up two more brave and loyal models, and commended Xue An and Zhou Hu at the same time. Winning over alien masters like them.
These are all the methods of the wealthy family, so there is no need to mention them. After the people were dismissed, Li Ao went to Xue'e and asked her for the key to the underground warehouse.
There is a special place in the backyard of the Hou Mansion, which Li Xin gave to Xue'e for safekeeping. Normally, even Xiao Qingyue would not interfere with it.
Because it is where some strange things and special materials are collected. Like Li Xin's study, it is an important place in the Hou Mansion.
Li Fang himself actually followed Li Xin's example and set up a small courtyard in the east courtyard as his study room, but the collection was not as rich as his.
"Little Marquis, the Marquis has explained before that this thing is very dangerous. If there is a chance, it is better to take it to the Demon Suppression Division and hand it over to a dedicated person."
When she took Li Fan to check out the beauty's head, Xue'e told her about it.
“So far, we only know that it has the ability to scream and injure enemies, but it is indestructible and cannot be harmed by any means.
In addition, it can continuously move and teleport in a strange and unpredictable way, which is extremely difficult to deal with. "
"It doesn't matter, I'll take a look first and then talk."
Li Chong said with a smile.
In fact, his intention was that he was in a fighting state at the time and had not yet had time to observe and identify the properties of this strange thing, and he did not know what the strange essence and specific abilities it possessed.
But now that the beauty's head has been stabbed by Li Xin with the Dragon Tooth Sword, part of the strange power has been destroyed, and some of the inner characteristics should be exposed for him to gain insight into.
The level of development of my True Eye is actually quite high, but this thing does not seem to be an ability suitable for use in fierce battles. Only by observing calmly can you get more information.
Soon after, he came to the collection of beauty heads. In a separate secret room, he opened the box containing the evil head.
