Ling Checheng originally wanted to follow the person who walked out of Lu Zhiyou's team, that is, Qin Buyi, to see where this person would end up. Fortunately, he didn't know that this person was Qin Buyi, but he just wanted to see if Lu Zhiyou was there. Tell the person to do something else worth noticing.

Before taking a few steps, Ling Checheng noticed that there were experts nearby, not just one, but at least three people were present, the most obvious of which was the person wearing a bamboo hat on the roof, directly exposed within the range of sight that people could see , Duan Duan was sitting on the roof holding his big knife.

As long as Lingche City takes a few more steps forward, it will definitely come into their sight.

Just to be on the safe side, Ling Checheng didn't intend to let them find him. That person was going to deliver paintings to Zhang Huaruo, and these masters were responsible for protecting Zhang Huaruo's safety. With four opponents to contend with, Ling Checheng can't guarantee that he will be able to escape from the siege of these masters at all.

There are three people who can be noticed by him, and I don't know how many people have not been noticed by him. There is no need to take such a big risk for a person who might just send paintings.

Ling Checheng turned around resolutely, and continued to follow the road.

When he turned to leave, the man in the bamboo hat on the roof glanced at him, just a simple look, and didn't pay much attention to it.

After Qin Buyi left Zhang Huaruo's side, he went directly to the east of the city to find a house, because his favorite winery was opened there, and it was so good to drink near the restaurant!

He will try to keep the little brat's teachings in mind, and have a drink without getting drunk.

As soon as Qin Buyi left, Gou Qizi closed the door, followed Zhang Huaruo and asked curiously, "Master, how do you plan to give this painting to my uncle?"

Zhang Huaruo responded casually: "It's fine to just give it to him."

Lycium barbarum disagreed and said: "That's nothing new, it must be given by surprise, so that my uncle will never forget it!"

Zhang Huaruo thought about what the picture should look like, and made himself laugh, holding the picture scroll in his hand, Zhang Huaruo firmly said: "There is no need to do such nonsense, as long as it is something I give him, he will definitely cherish it. "

What Zhang Huaruo said was the truth, the wolfberry had nothing to say, and silently ate today's show of affection.

"Master, I have told He Lie according to the order of the young master, but he still has no intention of moving away. It seems that he wants to stay in the prime minister's mansion for a long time, and he has no plan to leave at all."

When Zhang Huaruo thought of He Liao, he couldn't help frowning, and the expression on his face gradually became serious: "Did he say why?"

Wolfberry hesitated for a moment, and told Zhang Huaruo He Li's original words: "He said that the Prime Minister's Mansion has food, drink and beauties, so of course he is reluctant to leave, no matter what."

Zhang Huaruo was taken aback for a moment, and heard the meaning of He Tiao's words, and looked at the wolfberry for a moment, which shocked the wolfberry: "Young master, why are you looking at me like that?"

"He really said that?" Zhang Huaruo couldn't believe it in his eyes, and confirmed it again to Gouqizi.

Gou Qizi nodded very seriously: "God Qi Zi asked him and heard it with his own ears. That's what he said. Gou Qi Zi promises that he hasn't changed a single word."

Zhang Huaruo was really stunned when his vaguely aware guesses were verified by reality. He lowered his head and began to think seriously, then continued to ask in a murmur, "What about my father, what's his reaction?"

Seeing that Zhang Huaruo had been hit hard, Gou Qizi said in a low voice, "God Qi Zi didn't ask the master about He Liao, but asked the servants in the mansion, and they said...they said..."

Zhang Huaruo stared at the wolfberry, waiting for the wolfberry to continue.

Lycium barbarum lowered his head to play with his hand, and unconsciously poked his two index fingers at each other: "Everyone says that the master and He Tiao are very close, and there are more smiling faces on weekdays. It seems that a few times..."

Glancing up at Zhang Huaruo, he continued: "...stay in He Liao's room for the night."

Zhang Huaruo suddenly strode towards the back room, holding the painting scroll in a menacing manner, and walked out after a while, the painting scroll in his hand was gone, replaced by Zhang Huaruo's acupuncture bag, he wore it on his waist, and walked like the wind go outside.

Lycium barbarum was stunned for a while, and after realizing it, he quickly chased after him: "Master, why are you going?"

Zhang Huaruo said angrily: "Look for him to settle the score!"

Zhang Huaruo had to take care of this matter, not only because it involved Zhang Xieyi, but also because He Liao had the opportunity to live in the prime minister's mansion because of him, which led to He Liao and Zhang Xieyi's acquaintance, so he had to take care of it. , must check for Zhang Xieyi.

Daddy has a way of knowing people in officialdom, but that's how he judges a man's ability...

Zhang Huaruo had to worry about Zhang Xieyi's previous record of being cheated so badly.

Lycium barbarum accompanied Zhang Huaruo all the way back to the prime minister's mansion. He didn't go through the main entrance, and he didn't say hello to Zhang Xieyi. He sneaked through the back door. When the servants in the mansion saw Zhang Huaruo came back, they would naturally open the door. Zhang Huaruo said not to disturb Zhang Xieyi. Yi, they also obediently follow suit.

Before going in, Zhang Huaruo did not forget to ask them: "Is He Tiao and He Banxian still in the mansion now?"

The gatekeepers looked at each other, expressing that they didn't know.

Zhang Huaruo didn't continue to ask, and waited to go to He Liao's room to take a look. If he is not there, then wait until he comes back!

When passing by Huan's laundry room, Gouqizi took a laundry hammer and accompanied Zhang Huaruo aggressively to the door.

At this time, He Liao was setting up a stall outside to tell people's fortunes, and today he succeeded in persuading a man who intends to commit suicide, and gave the 40 taels he earned today from a wealthy businessman to that man by showing the magic method, so as not to let him go. The man feels that he has been favored by others, but the gods have come to help him.

The good deeds every day have been completed, and the rules of giving out the money earned that day have also been completed. He Lie started to close the stall and walk to the prime minister's mansion, humming a little song while walking, so happy.

He Liao is a liar, there is no doubt about it, but he did not choose this fortune-telling profession to satisfy his own selfish desires, not to get huge rewards from others. He does know fortune-telling, but fortune-telling is something that the beholder sees benevolence and the wise see wisdom , believable or not.

Many times, when people encounter difficulties, setbacks and some embarrassing things, they will pin their hopes on fortune-telling. Bad-hearted fortune-tellers just fancy people's fragility at this time, tempting them to be deceived, and let them blindly confess Give the fortune teller a lot of money, so that the fortune teller can change his fortune.

The mystical and miraculous fortune-changing methods of this kind of fortune teller have no effect at all, they just focus on the pockets of these people, no matter whether these people have money or not, they can deceive as much as they want with one brain, they are really black-hearted liars.

There are also good fortune tellers in the world, but He Liao has self-knowledge and knows that he is not one of these fortune tellers.

He's a liar, but he's not bad at heart.

Talking based on people's faces, talking about people when seeing people, talking nonsense when seeing ghosts, and persuasive words are nothing more than giving people hope. Many frustrated people sometimes just need others to give them affirmation and encouragement.

Except for a small part of the money he earns from daily fortune-telling for his own expenses, he will pick out most of the rest on the street to ordinary people who have encountered some difficulties at a glance, and the money is not It is omnipotent, but it can often solve many urgent needs and restore hope to people's lives.

Ever since he started to live in the Prime Minister's Mansion, he has used the things in the Prime Minister's Mansion for food and clothing. He Liao now comes out with his purse to set up a fortune-telling stall, and then goes back to the Prime Minister's Mansion with his purse bare. Doesn't it mean that he has a penny a day? He didn't make any money, and he transferred all the money he earned to those who are more in need.

"There are so few people in Chang'an, spring is everywhere in the mansion..."

He Li hummed a song all the way into the side door of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The guard who opened the door for him seemed to look at him more than usual. He Li noticed this and didn't pay much attention to it.

The servants in the Prime Minister's Mansion seemed to vaguely see the relationship between him and Zhang Xieyi, and it was normal for them to look at him more occasionally.

He Liao just walked to the door of his own room and was about to walk in. When he opened the door, a wooden mallet was called to his face, with a strong wind, which frightened him to a standstill, and he did not dare to move.

The mallet stopped just a little distance away from his forehead. If the people inside hadn't stopped the strength, he would have been smashed by now, with a big lump bulging on his forehead, and it was broken for nothing. His handsome face.

With lingering fears in his heart, He Liao focused his eyes on who was holding the mallet to beat him. It turned out to be Gou Qizi who had just met yesterday. He knew that Gou Qizi was not joking with him, but it was true, and wanted to scare him away from the Prime Minister's Mansion. .

He Liao piled up a smiling face, and deliberately described the behavior of wolfberry as a joke: "Oh, it turns out that you are the most lively and cute little wolfberry in our house. What wind blows you into my house? Hurry up and beat the laundry Put it away, you can't make a joke like this, if it really hits me and hurts me, you still have to pay for my treatment, right?"

He Liao moved his steps to the left, and moved his head out of the attack range of the laundry hammer. Then he breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the wolfberry with a smile: "It's your young master who asked you to bring me a message again? No? I said, he's already married, why care so much about the affairs of the prime minister's mansion, and..."

After walking a few steps into the room, He Liao suddenly saw Zhang Huaruo who was sitting in the room drinking tea quietly. The words that had not been uttered in his throat were stuck in an instant, and he turned to Zhang Huaruo with a flattering smile: "Little young master today! Why did you go back to the mansion when you have time, and you came to see me in person, it really hurts me."

Zhang Huaruo glanced at him and motioned him to sit down.

When He Liao sat across from him safely, Zhang Huaruo said slowly and unhurriedly: "Didn't Mr. He just say that Hua Ruo is already married to the prime minister's mansion and has no right to take care of the affairs of the prime minister's mansion? Now he also calls Hua Ruo the young master, and Hua Ruo may not be able to afford Mr. He's title to Hua Ruo."

He Liao also poured himself a cup of tea, and was right about the situation for the time being: "I didn't say that the young master has no right to take care of the affairs of the prime minister's house, but just said that the young master has been married in a legitimate way, so he should have worried about Dabao a lot. As for the matter of the family, it will take a long time to manage the small family of the two of you well, what I said is the truth."

Zhang Huaruo raised his eyes to look at He Liao, there was no sign of joking on his face, it was the first time He Liao saw Zhang Huaruo like this, and was shocked by the serious and cold aura around Zhang Huaruo, he restrained the expression of laughter on his face, and was equally serious Get serious.

He Lio took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, put down the teacup and asked slowly, "Young master came to my room specially, did you want to say something to me?"

Zhang Huaruo asked back: "Mr. He is so smart, didn't he always claim to be He Banxian before, can't he even guess this thing?"

He teased for a moment, of course he guessed why Zhang Huaruo was looking for him, but to be honest, he hadn't even said anything about it, if he had to explain this clearly to Zhang Huaruo right now, it would really be true. Some embarrass him.

Seeing He Tiao's guilty look, Zhang Huaruo felt a little unhappy in his heart, and even the expression on his face turned cold: "It turns out that in Mr. He's heart, he has never planned this matter well?"

It's not for the sake of being with Zhang Xieyi for a long time, but this He Liao is probably not another Emperor Mingrui!

Emperor Mingrui is the former emperor, the father of the current young emperor.

He Li opened his mouth and glanced at the wolfberry standing behind Zhang Huaruo. The wolfberry was holding up the laundry and pounding at him with his teeth and claws. It looked funny and really scary. Get straight to the point and make it clear.

He Lie sighed softly, looking helpless and pitiful: "Okay, I admit, I have thoughts and thoughts about your father, that is, Xie Yi, and he knows it, but he hasn't formalized it yet. Respond to me, I want to plan my future with him, but I don’t have a single word, I’m here alone thinking about our future, if he doesn’t accept me in the end, let me now Just telling you like this, isn't it going to be a joke in the future?"

Zhang Huaruo felt relieved when he heard that his father didn't have that kind of clear thoughts about He Liao, and he didn't treat He Liao as coldly as before, and his expression calmed down a little: "How did I hear that my father lives with you at night? Already in the house?"

He Liao blushed, looked at the sky and the ground, looked at the scenery outside the window, but didn't look at Zhang Huaruo, and said to him from left to right: "I took the initiative to take the initiative in this matter between me and your father, and I promise you, if your father can respond to me , I will definitely be able to treat him well. I am already a man of this age. It is not easy to meet such a person I like. Needless to say, I will also take good care of this feeling and will not let the love bestowed on me by God. Fate slips away easily."

What He Liao said was sincere and sincere. Zhang Huaruo looked at He Liao, paid attention to his expression, eyes and movements, and knew that although He Liao was changing the topic, what he said now should be sincere and not fake.

"It's not enough to have a sincere heart. If you are sincere to my father and sincere to others, you will be sincere in your heart, but not the sincerity that my father wants."

"...Young master really thinks highly of me, how can I pretend to be so big, how many people can I pretend to be?"

Zhang Huaruo asked suddenly: "Where is your hometown?"

He Lio was caught off guard and answered directly: "Jizhou."

Zhang Huaruo asked again: "How many people are there in the family?"

He Liao understood that Zhang Huaruo wanted to check his account and check his details, and thought that if Zhang Huaruo no longer trusted him because of such a trivial matter, it would be a small loss and the gain outweighed the gain, so he obediently replied: "The two elders are both I have gone to drive the crane fairy, and there are only five brothers left in the family, and I am the fifth."

After thinking for a while, he added: "Our five brothers have had very little contact with each other. After the death of our parents, the four elder brothers started their own families. I am the youngest. I didn't want to trouble them to take care of me, so I moved out early and wandered alone in the rivers and lakes."

Zhang Huaruo looked at him: "What did you do at home?"

He Liao looked up and thought about it. He is 32 years old this year, and he was only fifteen or sixteen years old when he left home. What happened more than ten years ago is indeed a bit vague. In addition, he was still a relatively bohemian young man at that time, so he didn't worry about it. Family affairs, let alone the family property, I can only vaguely recall a little bit now: "The rice grain business? It is mainly managed by the first three brothers, and I can't remember."

At the right time, Zhang Huaruo turned the topic back to the original question again, asking lightly, and He Liao, who was still immersed in the long memory, didn't notice for a moment, but obediently blurted out an answer.

Zhang Huaruo asked him: "Why did my father live in your house?"

He Lie replied: "Everyone is at this age, and there are some needs..."

Stop, cover your mouth quickly!

Zhang Huaruo changed his slightly benign attitude just now, and looked at He Liao indifferently again, and He Liao poured himself another cup of tea bitterly, trying to cover his face with the teacup.

No, no, Xie Yi said that other things can be told to Zhang Huaruo, but this matter must be kept secret from Zhang Huaruo, no one can tell it out, lest Zhang Huaruo know, by the way, what was the reason Xie Yi made up for herself at that time Come on, is...playing chess?

He Liao tried to calm herself down, put down the teacup pretending to be calm, and said: "Xie Yi just wanted to find someone to chat with. He was so boring at night, so he came to play chess with me. That's what I need. What could it be, young master, don't think too much."

Zhang Huaruo snorted coldly, and asked, "What did Mr. He think I misunderstood?"

He Lie held the teacup cover and fiddled with the tea, trying not to look so trembling: "Just to mention the last sentence, don't you think the sentence just now is ambiguous, it would be best if the young master didn't misunderstand anything , Xie Yi and I really just play chess and admire the moon, drink some wine and talk about life, we are about the same age, so it is normal to have some common topics."

Zhang Huaruo clenched his right hand into a fist, put it in front of his lips, and just looked at He Liao quietly, as if he was thinking about whether what He Liao said was true or not, and also seemed to be thinking about how to kill someone and throw away the body without leaving any traces.

Suddenly feeling that the temperature around him had dropped several degrees, He Lio shook silently, and smiled wryly in his heart. He was so frightened by such a talented young man. Zhang Huaruo's aura when he was serious was really much scarier than his father.

Xie Yi is really cute, she will stare her eyes when she is scary, she thinks she is very majestic and imposing, but in fact, it makes people want to go up and bully him even more, making her angry eyes clouded with mist and surprise And other emotions, uh... the more I think about it, the more cute it is!

His thoughts went astray accidentally, and when He Liao came back to his senses, Gou Qizi had been ordered by Zhang Huaruo to come to He Lio's side. As soon as He Liao came back to his senses, Gou Qizi pressed him on the table, and he couldn't move his upper body.

The left face was pressed hard against the table, and He Lie hurriedly begged for mercy: "I didn't force your father! Really! I was also surprised. He didn't agree with my confession, but he was still willing to get close to me. You said he gave it away." How can I refuse when he comes to the door, I can't refuse him, ouch!"

He Liao cried out in pain, and the needles pierced several acupuncture points on his back and waist, which suddenly made his lower body unconscious and made him terrified.

He was still begging for mercy, but Zhang Huaruo acted like he hadn't heard of it, and seriously injected needles in He Liao's back, completely ignoring He Liao's screams, until He Liao felt that he was doomed, Zhang Huaruo withdrew the needles, and let go of the goji berries. After releasing the confinement on him, He Liao lay on the table for a while, and gradually felt the consciousness of the lower body come back.

A false alarm, weeping with joy.

But He Lio soon realized that if Zhang Hua couldn't just let him go like this, the few injections on him must be for other purposes. It didn't seem like killing him.

He moved his legs and toes, everything was normal, so he had no choice but to ask Zhang Huaruo directly: "What did the young master do to you?"

Zhang Huaruo was inserting all the used silver needles into the cloth pouch on the other side, and he didn't look at He Liao the whole time. He Liao was flustered by his attitude, but he didn't dare to say anything, because he was afraid of the master and servant here. The two of them started to repair him inhumanely again, and sat in their seats peacefully, waiting for Zhang Huaruo Shi En to explain to him when.

The reason why He Liao is so frightened is to ensure that He Liao will not do excessive things to Zhang Xieyi in the future, and let him understand that Zhang Xieyi may forgive him for letting him go, but Zhang Huaruo will not let him go He teases.

If he dared to bully his father, he would end up miserable!

"It's nothing." Zhang Huaruo said slowly, "It won't cause any health impact on your body, that is, it seals off the possibility of using a certain part of you. Before my father knows his feelings for you, I will definitely You are not allowed to coax him into your room and play any more chess!"

Only a ghost would believe that the two of them were playing chess!Do you still treat him as a three-year-old child?Zhang Huaruo was very depressed, he guessed that this reason must have been taught by Zhang Xieyi, and the more he thought about it, the more depressed he became.

When Zhang Huaruo finished speaking, He Lie looked down at his lower body in shock. He couldn't believe what Zhang Huaruo said was true, it was a lie!

Now that Zhang Huaruo already understood, He Lie had no choice but to say: "He told me to hide it from you so that you wouldn't worry about it. Besides, your father is looking for a second spring, so what are you trying to do with it..."

Silently shut up.

Zhang Huaruo knew Zhang Xieyi's love history when he was young, and knew how miserably Zhang Xieyi was deceived by Emperor Mingrui at that time. No matter what, he would not allow what happened back then to happen again. He would not prevent his father from finding a second love, but In some aspects, he should check for his father.

Zhang Huaruo packed the acupuncture bag, and got up to leave: "If you really want to be with my father, let me see your sincerity and hard work. Since you haven't really confirmed your relationship, you should first confirm the relationship and wait." Whenever my father is willing to stay with you forever, I will naturally help you unlock this acupuncture point."

Before leaving the house, he added another sentence: "Don't tell my father about the fact that I came to your place today."
