After entering the courtyard, it was immediately different from what you saw outside.
Judging from the appearance, this is a house that has been neglected for a long time and is almost abandoned.
Of course this is actually the case.
But now that there is a new owner, the whole house immediately becomes different.
Well... it's very clean and it doesn't feel like it's been unoccupied for a long time.
This was Li Yi's first feeling after entering the courtyard.
There are green trees everywhere, birds chirping and flowers fragrant, and from time to time, female voices can be heard in the distance.
If you look closely, you will find a group of beautifully dressed young women taking care of the flowers and plants in the yard.
In the distance, you can still vaguely see a few people opening up new land with hoes.
Yes, you read that right. Although this house does not appear to occupy a large area on the surface, there is actually a large open space in the backyard of the house.
Because the town is quite large, except for houses, all other vacant land is unclaimed.
As long as there is a reason, you can basically put all the uninhabited open space near the house under your name, and no one will say anything.
After all, people who can afford such a big house are not something ordinary people can afford.
And those servants were dressed up to "measure" the open space for the house - they were enclosing a yard with fences.
"It seems like Marquis Wang wants to live here forever!"
Seeing this, Li Yi couldn't help but glance at the Marquis next to him who still lowered his head and was very respectful for some reason.
When we talk about being a marquis in this world, does that mean he is a marquis in that world?
The kind that has a title but no power.
Or is it similar to the ancient country squire?
"Haha, sir, you're joking. Although Xiansheng Pass is safe for the time being, and those Damans may not invade again, that doesn't mean that our Western Plains Prefecture can sit back and relax. There are still other threats. Yes!"
Li Yi glanced at him, looking concerned about the country and the people.
The demo, he pretends to be like that.
"If you have anything to say, just tell me, I'm in a hurry."
While Li Yi looked at everything in front of him, he speculated on the reason why Marquis Wang was looking for him. At the same time, he was also careful to use verbal attacks to force the other party to reveal his original intention as soon as possible.
Although the other party said that he would not reveal Ruili's whereabouts until he accepted the invitation...wait a minute.
He didn't seem to say who it was at all, right?
"You said you know the whereabouts of the person I'm looking for, so please tell me, what does that person look like?"
Li Yi quickly glanced at the other person's eyes and found that when he said these words, the other person's face did not change at all.
I don’t know if it’s because he’s too calm or because he’s really confident.
This made him very curious.
If the other party wanted to force him to come in this way, then it can be said that half of the other party's purpose was achieved.
He did accept the invitation.
But it didn't say that he couldn't leave early.
This depends on whether the Imperial Marquis named Wang Tianlai really knows the whereabouts of Ruili.
And he was also very curious. Even Guo Yunkai, who used the entire border army's intelligence system, could not find Ruili's whereabouts so quickly.
Has the Marquis already found out?
Doesn't that mean that in this western plain mansion, a mere country squire has more energy than a border army?
Of course, it is also possible that in the past, the border troops focused their energy outside the customs. After all, there was a powerful enemy at hand and they could not take care of the affairs within the customs.
This is understandable, after all, there are specialties in the art industry!
You can't say that a garrison general whose main responsibility is to guard the border has nothing to do all day long and is always investigating the situation within his jurisdiction, right?
If you think about it this way, it will be much easier to understand.
Sure enough, Wang Tianlai answered in the next second.
"She is taller than ordinary people and speaks in a soft voice. She sounds like a girl, but because she looks very different from ordinary people, most people don't dare to approach her. Sir, I shouldn't be wrong to describe her like this, right?"
Li Yi nodded.
"It seems so. Tell me, what are the conditions, but I will explain some things in advance. I have no ability. If it involves your own affairs, forget about the big things. I can still help with the small things."
Wang Tianlai replied repeatedly.
"It's a small matter, of course it's a small matter. This is the first time that my husband and I have met. How dare I trouble you if there's something big going on? Of course it's a small matter... This matter is of course a trivial matter for your husband."
"Is it really a trivial matter?"
Li Yi tilted his head and looked at Wang Tianlai opposite.
"Of course, of course, that's for sure. Please come in, sir, and the banquet will begin soon."
When Li Yi heard this, he raised his eyebrows and then smiled.
"Okay, then please come!"
After saying that, Li Yi took the initiative to step into the hall and immediately smelled a fresh fragrance, which made him involuntarily take a deep breath and nodded.
It’s time to say something, let’s not say what the other person is asking him for.
But he was still very satisfied.
This table of food alone was enough to satisfy him.
He has decided.
As long as there is no big deal, just agree.
Of course, the premise is that it’s really a small matter.
If it was really related to that plateau nomad, then he wouldn't care about it.
I can't control it either.
Touching his nose, Li Yi was about to step into the house when he suddenly felt a stream of fragrant wind blow directly into his arms, causing him to squeeze involuntarily.
It's soft and feels pretty good.
wrong!
This is?
"Sir, how bad are you!"
A burst of laughter like silver bells rang in his ears. An extremely charming woman was lying in his arms at the moment, and he could see it when he lowered his head.
With her small cherry mouth, slender waist and heavy capital, every part of her body is enough to cause otakus to howl like wolves in the Internet age.
To be honest, Li Yi didn't feel much at all the moment he took it. He thought someone had accidentally bumped into him.
As a result, I lowered my head and looked at the other party's outstanding performance.
How could he not know what this was for?
Good guy, this is coming for me!
Li Yi remained calm and quickly glanced back behind him with a smile on his face, as if he was happy to see the success come to him.
If he said it wasn't arranged by this fat man, I wouldn't believe it even to death!
Of course, now that he has come in, Li Yi will not give up halfway.
All he could see was the delicious food on the table, and the woman in his arms.
Dodge technique!
Xiaoqing felt her body was empty, and she fell to the ground involuntarily. Several bruises suddenly appeared on her white and tender thighs, and even her elbows were broken.
Looking at the man just now, he was sitting at the table at some point. He was eating a big chicken drumstick in one hand and holding a glass of wine he had poured in the other hand, but he didn't take a sip.
It looked like he was just holding it.
At this time, a figure followed and walked in.
Wang Tianlai.
"Master, I..."
"Okay, get up, it seems like this guy has no interest in beauty!"
Wang Tianlai touched his chin and thought to himself.
To be honest, even he almost couldn't stop because of the maid's action just now.
That voice, that figure, that appearance, it doesn't matter what you want, as long as you are a normal man, you will never escape.
But this person, at most, touched a few unconsciously at first, and then all his attention was attracted by the banquet table.
Look at that gobbling look.
This is the reincarnation of a starving ghost!
When Wang Tianlai didn't know it, that battle did consume too much of Li Yi's mental energy. Even in the past few days, Xiaohong kept giving him delicious food and drinks, which helped him recover a little.
But it’s just a drop in the bucket.
It is still difficult to rely on such ordinary ingredients to replenish the excessive consumption of mental energy.
But the food on this table is different.
The reason why Li Yi ignored the beautiful woman he loved most was precisely because of this.
I don’t know where Marquis Wang got these precious ingredients.
Wild animal meat is not just an ordinary beast, but also wild various fungi, which are at least twenty years old or older.
Li Yi even discovered that it contained many precious medicinal materials.
These are all good things to replenish your energy and refresh your mind!
Moreover, the cooking techniques are also very clever, perfectly combining the ingredients and medicinal materials, without losing the medicinal power, and at the same time, using wild ingredients to increase the freshness of the dishes.
The two are combined with each other, which is the icing on the cake.
The person who can perfectly combine this kind of medicinal food, this chef is not an easy person!
Li Yi was thinking while eating, showing a smile from time to time.
It seems that this banquet is not delicious!
Li Yi would not believe that he had gone through so much trouble to make this happen, and said it was just for a trivial matter.
